Song Wen spotted six orthodox Body Integration cultivators, including Bai Wei of Spirit Jade Palace, deploying a massive cyan barrier formation around a desert fissure near Luyang City and fled to safety. Two Six Fiends Hall corpse cultivators, Wei Gu and Gong Tianzong, emerged within the barrier, trading accusations of atrocities and suspicions over the Primordial Qi Death Zone. The orthodox group unleashed a thousand-zhang sword of light, which Gong Tianzong blocked with a Blood-Colored Corpse Coffin that shattered upon impact, shaking the earth.

Blood surged violently from Wei Gu’s body, shooting upward to create a massive crimson column tens of meters wide. Straight into the skies it soared.

The moment the blood column smashed into the enormous sword, the entire world shifted in an instant.

Wherever the sword’s blade cut through, the blood pillar burst apart into a shower of red droplets spreading across the heavens.

Blood kept pouring ceaselessly from Wei Gu, rendering the pillar bottomless as it hammered unyieldingly against the gigantic sword.

The sword’s plunge suddenly decelerated.

"Heavenly Sword, Exterminate Evil!"

From beyond the formation, Jian Xiao bellowed fiercely.

At his order, the other five cultivators rapidly switched their hand seals.

The giant sword changed form. Innumerable runes appeared across its surface, exploding with dazzling brilliance.

In that instant, the sword dominated the world, outshining even the fierce sun.

The blade surged forward with ferocious speed, slicing through the unending red flood. When it neared within three meters of Wei Gu and Gong Tianzong, a piercing wail ripped through the air, echoing far and wide.

Jian Xiao and his five allies suffered as the soul-rending screech stabbed into their ears like myriad steel spikes into their minds. Their Seas of Consciousness shook wildly, divine souls twisting in torment.

"Not good! It’s a divine sense attack!" Jian Xiao shouted, instantly calling forth a small bronze bell in his palm.

The bell swung softly, silent yet projecting an unseen shield around Jian Xiao that repelled the shrill cry.

Though Jian Xiao endured the soul assault, his companions faltered. Take Bai Wei, whose cultivation lingered at early Body Integration, the weakest of the six righteous experts.

She had barely summoned her pale bone jade pendant without activating it when soul pain crushed her. Her form staggered, tumbling earthward.

With Bai Wei out, the six-person formation wobbled precariously.

The huge sword inside fragmented into endless Sword Qi threads, sweeping wildly over the field.

Sword Qi fell like a storm of needles, bombarding the mana barriers of Wei Gu and Gong Tianzong. Ripples spread across the shields, but they stood firm like unmovable peaks.

Next to Wei Gu loomed a Black Wolf towering ten zhang high.

Though wolf-like in name, its form barely matched: skinless, draped in long, whip-thin flesh tendrils.

The Black Wolf bared its scarlet jaws and unleashed a thunderous howl.

Nine tendril-tongues, each over thirty feet, twisted and whipped through the sky.

From the Black Wolf’s maw came the divine sense strike.

This beast was unmistakably a void fiend, late seventh-tier at minimum.

Lacking his colossal sword, Wei Gu’s blood column blasted upward, crashing into the formation’s ceiling.

Beyond the array, Jian Xiao sealed with both hands at once, pouring power into his array disk and Bai Wei’s barrier control disk.

This double effort kept the formation from instant ruin after Bai Wei’s injury. Yet Jian Xiao had misjudged his limits. Shielding with the bell against the Black Wolf’s soul attack while juggling two disks overwhelmed him.

As the blood column hit the barrier dome, it quaked fiercely then exploded outward in a horrific energy blast.

Jian Xiao and his five fellows took the full force.

Each unleashed their defensive treasures, brushing aside the energy wave with ease.

Only Bai Wei, soul-damaged, got hurled like a leaf in the raging currents, flung far away.

Right then, Luyang City faced total annihilation.

The city vanished in a flash.

Walls in ruins, grand structures, and all mortals inside turned to powder under the rampaging energy tempest.

Shockwaves kept rolling outward.

Peaks shattered like thin sheets, birthing a dust cloud that blotted the sky and ravaged the earth.

Song Wen, already fled miles past the walls, saw his perfect chance to flee.

With righteous and demonic forces locked in frenzied combat, none would notice a sudden Void Refinement cultivator.

He triggered his escape art, body gliding low over the ground as he dashed away.

At the same moment, a yellowish-brown talisman appeared in his grasp.

Just as he prepared to use it, a silhouette flew through the air and slammed into a peak hundreds of feet ahead.

In a flash, the mountaintop was leveled flat, spewing forth a torrent of rocks and choking dust.

The silhouette pressed on relentlessly, rolling headlong ahead.

Song Wen narrowed his eyes and identified it as Bai Wei.

Bai Wei appeared utterly miserable, her form riddled with injuries.

Her pristine white robes lay in tatters, exposing the mangled flesh underneath. Shards of shattered bone protruded ominously from multiple spots.

Yet these remained only minor surface damages. The severe harm festered deep inside her divine soul.

With the massive dust cloud blotting out the sky closing in from behind, Bai Wei spotted Song Wen. A spark of hope flared within her gaze.

"Little friend... save me."

Song Wen brushed aside her desperate cry, hurtling straight overhead before slamming into a close dirt heap.

The talisman clutched in his grip exploded, morphing into a yellowish glow that shrouded his whole frame.

"Little friend, I can give you a Heavenly Astral Body Integration Pill!" Bai Wei shouted in desperation.

Already tunneling into the heap, Song Wen's eyes gleamed with sudden excitement.

A Heavenly Astral Body Integration Pill!

Jiang Lanruo and Chi Qi had once described this mythical elixir to him—a treasure capable of propelling cultivators into the Body Integration Stage.

On top of that, Xu Mengyu had noted how exceptional Bai Wei’s Pill Refinement Technique truly was.

Acting swiftly, Song Wen erupted with spiritual power, boring through the dense yellow soil. He yanked Bai Wei into the heap alongside him.

The yellowish radiance then cloaked them together, as they plunged far beneath the surface.

Exactly as Song Wen anticipated, Jian Xiao and his group were far too entangled to spot him.

Besides, even with Jian Xiao and his four allies pooling their strength, they stood no chance against the duo of foes plus a void fiend. Their swift downfall meant nobody spared a thought for Song Wen and Bai Wei's location.

Song Wen raced southward at maximum velocity, hurtling across tens of thousands of miles to arrive at the Primordial Qi Death Zone.

Pressing another hundred thousand miles inward, the overwhelming Primordial Qi crushed his divine sense down to a mere twenty or thirty miles radius. Only then did he break free from below ground.

He lowered Bai Wei onto the earth and demanded, "Senior Bai Wei, where is the Heavenly Astral Body Integration Pill?"

Bai Wei slumped helplessly on the ground, drained of strength, her features twisted in agony while she fought back the excruciating pain ravaging her Sea of Consciousness.

"You... recognize me?" she rasped.

Song Wen offered a subtle smile. Considering Bai Wei's feeble condition and their spot deep in the Primordial Qi Death Zone, he felt zero threat from her.

"True Lord Bai Wei of the Spirit Jade Palace—her reputation precedes her."

"Cough!"

Bai Wei coughed up a gush of blood, drenching her bloodstained robes in an even richer scarlet hue.

"Little friend, your face is unfamiliar. From which sect do you hail?"

Song Wen's face hardened coldly. A spear stretching over ten feet appeared in his grasp, its sharp point leveled straight at Bai Wei’s belly.

"So, Senior Bai Wei doesn’t have the Heavenly Astral Body Integration Pill after all?"
