Gu Sheng, a Heavenly Martial Realm cultivator, faces a powerful Human King Realm opponent. Despite the vast difference in power, Gu Sheng unleashes incredible speed and a devastating Chaos Sword strike, severely wounding the opponent. The opponent retaliates with a full-power punch, but Gu Sheng's defensive talismans and Chaos radiance protect him. Gu Sheng then decapitates the opponent, but the man's life force attempts to reconnect his head and body using an Evil Technique. Gu Sheng counters with a powerful Divine Flame strike, burning away the threads and obliterating the opponent's head. The opponent's dying words warn of a 'Young Master' seeking revenge. Gu Sheng then turns his attention to Bai Zhi, who is bound by 'Evil Spirit Binding' chains that seal her power.

This name he had heard in his past life; it is an extremely vicious sealing secret technique from the Ancient Evil Path, specifically targeting the Divine Soul and True Yuan. Once bound, it feels like being skinned alive, reduced to a lamb waiting for slaughter!

Moreover, this technique is strange; forcibly breaking it is very likely to damage the bound person’s Source, and it may even trigger an Evil Power backlash, directly destroying the Divine Soul!

"Conventional means can’t undo it."

Gu Sheng frowned, speaking in a deep voice.

"Forcibly breaking it open carries too much risk and may harm your essence."

He decided swiftly.

"This place is not suitable for a prolonged stay! Wuya Sect members could arrive at any moment! I’ll take you out of the Secret Realm first! Once back at Great Wilderness City, I’ll find a way to undo this Evil Spirit Binding for you!"

"Th-thank you, Senior..."

Bai Zhi’s eyes were filled with tears, her voice choking.

She knew she was a burden at the moment, but Gu Sheng’s willingness to bring her along was a monumental kindness.

Gu Sheng didn’t hesitate any longer; with a gentle yet firm wave, he lifted Bai Zhi with True Qi.

He turned to Gu Yuanyuan behind the stone pillar.

"Yuanyuan, follow up!"

"Yes, Master!"

Gu Yuanyuan hurriedly rushed out, gazing at Bai Zhi being lifted by master’s True Qi, a look of sympathy in her eyes.

The three no longer lingered; Gu Sheng took Bai Zhi with Gu Yuanyuan following closely behind, quickly heading towards the path they came from, towards the entrance of the Teleportation Gate that led into the Secret Realm initially.

Just having dashed out for several miles, Gu Sheng suddenly stopped! His expression turned extremely solemn!

"Master? What’s wrong?"

Gu Yuanyuan asked nervously.

Gu Sheng didn’t answer; he looked up at the dark red sky.

He saw the gigantic, white "moon" full of black patterns, now shining brightly! The black patterns on its surface crazily wriggled and expanded!

An indescribable terror that seemed to overthrow the heavens descends like an invisible giant hand!

Rumbling—!

The entire Secret Realm space began to shake violently! The ground undulated, enormous cracks spreading like cobwebs!

The distant charred mountains collapsed, the sky twisted!

Numerous space fissures flickered like black lightning in the Void! The breath of destruction filled the heavens!

"Not good!"

Gu Sheng’s gaze turned icy.

"The Sacrificial Array... has already begun!

They are forcibly extracting the Secret Realm’s Source, accelerating the collapse! They intend to bury everyone... here!"

"Then... then what should we do?"

Gu Yuanyuan turned pale.

Gu Sheng’s eyes flashed like lightning, scanning the surrounding twisted, collapsing space, releasing powerful Divine Sense to quickly search for the most stable space nodes and possible escape paths.

"Follow me!"

He shouted lowly, taking Bai Zhi and Gu Yuanyuan, turning into three streams of light, no longer heading back along the original path, but fleeing toward an area where the space fluctuations were relatively stable!

They must find an exit before the space completely collapses!

Gu Sheng’s eyes were sharp as lightning, instantly making a decision!

He communicated with the shadow of Yue Shen Gong deep in his Sea of Consciousness.

"Senior, this girl is bound by Evil Spirit Binding, her situation is critical. Please take her into the Divine Craft Maze Palace to temporarily escape!"

"Yes!"

Yue Shen Gong’s voice carried a grave tone.

An invisible space fluctuation immediately enveloped Bai Zhi, who was lifted by True Qi.

Bai Zhi felt a blur before her eyes and disappeared, transported into the Divine Craft Maze Palace within the Nine Dragon Universe Cauldron.

"Go!"

Gu Sheng hesitated no longer, grabbing Gu Yuanyuan’s arm, his figure transforming into a blurred afterimage, swiftly darting toward the exit of the Thousand Souls Hall!

The speed was so fast that a faint sonic boom was left in the air!

Just as the two figures disappeared outside the hall gates—

Several powerful auras descended from the sky, fiercely crashing at the entrance of the Thousand Souls Hall! The leader was Xiao Beixuan!

He wore a dark robe, his face stern, eyes sharp as a hawk, exuding a suffocatingly powerful pressure!

Behind him followed dozens of Wuya Sect Martial Artists, their auras rugged, eyes cold, some of whom were Human King Realm experts!

Xiao Beixuan’s gaze was like a knife, quickly scanning the desolate, silent hall interior.

Seeing the foul-smelling black water on the ground and the faint traces of the blue-clad man, his expression turned instantly grim!

"Useless!"

Xiao Beixuan’s voice was ice cold and biting, full of unconcealed killing intent.

"Couldn’t even keep watch of a bound waste!"

A Martial Artist behind him hurriedly stepped forward to investigate, returning with a difficult expression.

"Young Master! The guards... are completely destroyed! Bai Zhi... is gone!"

"Gone?"

Xiao Beixuan’s eyes flashed coldly!

He suddenly raised his hand, and a palm-sized, entirely black Compass engraved with strange runes appeared in his palm!

"Draw blood!"

Xiao Beixuan barked sternly.

Several Martial Artists immediately stepped forward, without hesitation slashing their wrists, pouring hot blood onto the Compass!

The blood quickly seeped into the runes on the Compass surface, and the Compass suddenly lit up with eerie blood-red light!

Xiao Beixuan clasped his hands, chanting rapidly, infusing the Compass with strong spiritual power!

The needle at the center of the Compass spun wildly, the blood light fluctuating unpredictably, attempting to lock onto Bai Zhi’s location bound by the Evil Spirit Binding Lock!

The needle whirled chaotically, the blood light flickering, unable to stabilize in any direction!

"How is this possible?!"

Xiao Beixuan’s expression changed drastically, eyes filled with disbelief.

"The Evil Spirit Binding Lock... is undone?! Bai Zhi... is not dead?!"

The Martial Artists behind him exchanged shocked glances!

The Evil Spirit Binding Lock is a core secret of Wuya Sect, once bound, nearly impossible to unravel!

Only a powerful expert surpassing the Caster by a whole realm can possibly undo it!
