Chapter 485: Nascent Soul Appears
The moment this object appeared, chaos erupted in the sky.
Those who had originally intended to cease fighting and negotiate peace immediately transformed into several long beams of light, shooting straight towards the five-colored light orb.
But halfway there, these beams of light intertwined with each other, and no one could advance even a single step.
For a time, light flashed and demonic energy danced wildly. The intensity was several times greater than before!
The five-colored light orb floated lightly above the cave entrance, motionless, as if it were within easy reach.
Everyone could clearly see that a pill about an inch in size was slowly rotating at the center of the orb. Each rotation caused the orb to contract and flicker, as if it were alive. This sight made both the righteous and demonic sides burn with passion.
Wu Chou and Mysterious Bone, among others, seemed stunned, staring blankly at the battle in the sky for a moment.
“Fools! What are you looking at? Hurry up and secure the Heaven Mending Pill!” Suddenly, the icy voice of the supreme patriarch of dark yin echoed in Wu Chou’s ears.
Upon hearing this, Wu Chou shuddered suddenly, as if awakening. He quickly transformed into a mass of black energy and shot straight towards the five-colored light orb.
At that moment, Mysterious Bone also made a move. However, this time he was not trying to seize the Heaven Mending Pill; instead, with a flick of his hands, two green strange snakes shot out from his sleeves, heading directly to strike at Wu Chou from behind.
But Wu Chou was quite alert. Although the green snake attacks were silent, he carefully detected them.
Immediately, he abandoned advancing and quickly turned to evade, his furious form spinning in defense.
“You’re courting death, daring to attack me!” Wu Chou could no longer suppress his anger. Profound yin demonic energy howled, filling the surroundings as he charged at Mysterious Bone.
Mysterious Bone chuckled coldly several times, not saying a word, and likewise unleashed green ghostly energy to confront him fiercely.
“Barbarian Huzi! What is your nephew doing?” The supreme patriarch of dark yin naturally saw Wu Chou being blocked and was furious, yelling at Barbarian Huzi.
“Doing what? Of course, I'm stopping that fellow from monopolizing the Heaven Mending Pill. Do you really think that since we’re all on the demonic path, I, the great one, would just hand over the pill to you?” Barbarian Huzi transformed a massive golden hand and wildly struck at Wan Tianming, laughing wildly.
“You...” The supreme patriarch’s face turned pale with anger at these words.
Barbarian Huzi’s statement undoubtedly declared the disintegration of the demonic path’s alliance, with everyone scrambling for the Heaven Mending Pill according to their own abilities.
However, this outcome was only a matter of time.
Since the Void Heaven Cauldron had not been retrieved and only this one Heaven Mending Pill appeared, naturally everyone aimed to claim it. Not only the demonic path cultivators, but even the three on the righteous path opposite them harbored secret intentions.
The supreme patriarch understood that arguing with Barbarian Huzi was a waste of time. Resigned, he intended to transform the heavenly capital demonic corpse to secure the pill.
But the black and gaunt old man’s cultivation technique was extremely strange and sinister. Whenever the demonic corpse was unleashed, the opponent’s green threads, as if premonitions, would immediately entangle it, making escape impossible. This made him despise both the gaunt old man and Barbarian Huzi even more.
In fact, it wasn’t only the supreme patriarch suffering this predicament; most of the others were in a similar situation.
On one hand, they tried every means to entangle their opponents, while on the other, they racked their brains seeking other methods to obtain the treasure.
Unfortunately, these old schemers were all cunning and resourceful, and no one could fulfill their wishes.
