"Boom boom boom!!!"
The radiant golden jade light from the Heavenly Gate pinned down the bone palace solidly, making it shake without cease and leak out misty, eerie ghostly energy.
Alongside several Core Formation cultivators from the Goddess Palace, Lu Changsheng activated a talisman array to relentlessly assault the White Bone Palace.
As the ghostly glow encircling the White Bone Palace shattered like fragile glass, Shen Baishuang, an azure ancient mirror floating above her and a golden ancient sword clutched in her grip, sliced through multiple layers of void to burst into the palace. She gazed down upon the elegant figure on the stone steps, a sneer curling her lips as she declared, "Si Guihua, you only dare to show off against me while hiding in this turtle shell. Do you truly think you can match me?"
"Hehe, it would make far more sense coming from your sister Shen Jianjia."
A chilling voice came from the Six Paths Demon Consort.
Scarce had the words faded when the elegant figure, entwined in swirling ghost shadows, materialized abruptly before Shen Baishuang.
Right then, dark blood light erupted, myriad ghosts howled ferociously, and horrifying blood-red flood serpents, as if forged from crimson gore, surged forth.
Simultaneously, tremors rocked the four corners of the White Bone Demon Palace, ghostly shrieks echoing ceaselessly, disrupting Shen Baishuang’s mind and magical power.
This White Bone Demon Palace served as an enormous magical treasure boasting both attack and defense prowess.
Upon intrusion by foes, its master turned into the formation’s core controller, harnessing the artifact’s might to amplify battle strength and deploy countless strategies.
Though suppressed by Huiyang True Monarch, the White Bone Demon Palace’s power remained constrained yet fearsome enough to threaten a Nascent Soul True Lord.
Yet Shen Baishuang charged inside fearlessly, brimming with assurance.
Protected by the azure ancient mirror above and crimson silk ribbons coiling around her—like an untouchable Lingbo Fairy immune to all arts—Shen Baishuang’s golden ancient sword slashed out, summoning golden heavenly phoenixes and sacred phoenixes that shattered endless spectral flood dragons and serpents, striking toward the Six Paths Demon Consort.
"Boom boom boom!!!"
Nascent Soul magical power surged like a tempest from their collision, exerting crushing pressure on the Goddess Palace aides, including Lu Changsheng, akin to braving a furious ocean storm.
Fluctuations from Nascent Soul power alone posed grave danger to Core Formation cultivators.
Moreover, beyond Shen Baishuang and the Six Paths Demon Consort, the duel between the golden gate and White Bone Demon Palace radiated another overwhelming Nascent Soul aura.
"Even the Second Palace Master struggles to fully overpower the Six Paths Demon Consort here. Absent Huiyang True Monarch, breaching this White Bone Palace’s barriers might prove impossible..."
Lu Changsheng appeared fully engaged in battle, yet his focus lingered on Shen Baishuang and Huiyang True Monarch.
Observing the repeated clashes leaving Shen Baishuang evenly pitted against the Six Paths Demon Consort, he discerned she held no edge.
After all, the Six Paths Demon Consort confronted two adversaries—or perhaps more.
"Yet this Six Paths Demon Consort practices Ghost Path and Blood Path methods?"
As the Six Paths Demon Consort unleashed diverse supernatural abilities, Lu Changsheng recognized techniques akin to the Yiming Ghost Sect’s, rooted in Ghost Path and Blood Path.
Releasing his [Soul-calling Beast] would cripple her power, rendering her no match for Shen Baishuang.
But the Soul-calling Beast slumbered now, gestating its Fourth Rank evolution, and Lu Changsheng refused to disturb it.
"Boom boom boom!"
While Shen Baishuang failed to dominate the Six Paths Demon Consort, Huiyang True Monarch commanding the Heavenly Gate proved savagely dominant.
The gate’s golden radiance battered the White Bone Demon Palace relentlessly, jolting it amid thunderous rumbles and piercing ghost wails.
Even absent as her lifebound treasure, the palace’s Qi mechanism tied to the Six Paths Demon Consort, inflicting heavy toll.
Several Nascent Soul cultivators guarding the palace’s array nodes now bore deathly pallor, their magical power faltering, some coughing up blood.
Such colossal magical treasures wielded immense might, but at horrifying consumption rates.
Hence why the Demon Consort traveled with hordes of ghosts and Dao Soldiers.
...
Through the joint onslaught of Huiyang True Monarch, Lu Changsheng, and allies, the White Bone Palace’s glow steadily waned.
As Huiyang True Monarch hammered the White Bone Palace, the Six Paths Demon Consort gradually yielded ground, cornered by Shen Baishuang.
"The Second Palace Master summons reinforcements, yet as wife to Starry Sky Sea’s top demon cultivator, how could the Six Paths Demon Consort lack support?"
"Moreover, earlier assemblies featured numerous Nascent Soul True Lords, some aligned with the Six Paths Palace."
Seeing the Six Paths Demon Consort slowly overwhelmed by Shen Baishuang, Lu Changsheng felt unease stirring.
This fight progressed too seamlessly.
It diverged from the small or medium calamity omens of his prior divination!
Yet no sooner had the notion surfaced than he detected an anomaly, his gaze snapping skyward.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
Obscuring clouds that blocked sight and divine sense billowed forward, carrying a sinister dirge from the Nine Nether Hell.
Every tone stabbed like a dagger into eardrums and minds, igniting throbbing headaches, turbulent emotions, and churning qi-blood.
Then, thick black droplets poured from the clouds, brimming with icy killing intent.
"Be careful!"
Instinctively alerted, Lu Changsheng shouted the warning.
The colossal, war-god-like Qian Zhuyan beside him swiftly guarded him, deflecting the dark droplets.
Though spawned by Nascent Soul True Monarchs, most targeted Huiyang True Monarch, letting Qian Zhuyan block them effortlessly.
However, the other Goddess Palace Core Formation Middle Stage cultivators paled under the soul-harvesting dirge and droplets, bodies riddled, blood spraying from mouths.
"Shen Baishuang, do you really think this palace can’t match you? Or that only you get to summon help!"
