Chapter 447: Profound Heavenly Gourd
Xu Yangzi and the others were even more enraged to hear this, but at the same time, they were also extremely alarmed as they hurriedly inspected themselves with their spiritual sense.
A mocking sneer appeared on Qu Ling's face as she swept a sleeve through the air, and an enormous azure silkworm that was several hundred feet in length emerged on one side of her, while a pristine white python of a similar stature appeared on the other side.
Both of the massive creatures immediately pounced at Xu Yangzi and the others as soon as they appeared.
The azure silkworm had quite a bloated appearance, but it was quite a bit faster than the giant white python, and it reached the True Flame Sect cultivators in the blink of an eye before opening its mouth to release a dense mass of azure silk, forming a massive net as it swooped through the air.
These azure silk threads were glittering and translucent, and they were also giving off faint law power fluctuations.
Xu Yangzi and the others were all quite alarmed to see this, and Xu Yangzi hurriedly yelled, "Adopt the Golden Crow Formation!"
Immediately thereafter, he began to make a rapid string of hand seals while opening his mouth to expel a ball of blood essence into the large flag above his head.
The spirit patterns on the surface of the flag instantly began to glow radiantly while turning a golden color, and a pillar of golden fire erupted forth from within.
Everyone else immediately did the same thing, and the flags above their heads also took on a golden hue while releasing pillars of golden flames.
The eight fiery pillars fused as one in the sky above, transforming into a golden brid that was over 1,000 feet in size. The bird had a phoenix comb on its head and a set of long and fiery tail feathers. What was most remarkable about it was that it had three legs, and it spread its enormous wings before swooping toward the oncoming azure net.
As soon as the azure net came into contact with the golden bird, the former instantly erupted into flames and was quickly incinerated into ashes.
Qu Ling raised an eyebrow upon seeing this.
Meanwhile, the giant white python had also arrived near the True Flame Sect cultivators, and it opened its mouth up wide before releasing a thick pillar of translucent white light.
As soon as the pillar of white light emerged, it instantly shattered in silence into a cloud of white mist that was interspersed with white ice spikes that swept toward the True Flame Sect cultivators from all directions.
The cloud of white mist was giving off bone-chilling glacial qi, and it seemed that even the nearby space had been frozen solid.
Meanwhile, the giant azure silkworm screeched in annoyance at having its attack foiled, and it opened its mouth once again to release a stream of countless silk threads that flew through the air like a volley of arrows.
At the same time, Qu Ling's golden beetle steed was also contributing to the attack, and it swept its two front legs viciously through the air to release two streaks of translucent light, each of which was over 1,000 feet in length.
In the blink of an eye, the two streaks of translucent light appeared in front of the True Flame Sect cultivators before sweeping toward them in a crisscross arrangement.
The collective power of these three beasts was extremely formidable, and an alarmed look flashed through Xu Yangzi's eyes as he hurriedly made a rapid string of hand seals, while everyone else was also looking on with grim expressions.
As the eight flags began to glow more and more radiantly, the flame around the golden bird's body also became brighter and brighter.
......
The green light radiating from the gourd instantly became even brighter, while the silver spirit runes on its surface began to writhe and squirm incessantly as if they were living creatures.
All of a sudden, a burst of green light erupted out of the opening of the gourd, then swept directly toward Xu Yangzi and the others.
A green ring then emerged within the stream of green light, giving off a burst of indescribable law fluctuations.
The nearby space instantly collapsed, while all of the world's origin qi within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers was swept up into a frenzy. Countless balls of five-colored light emerged in the air, then converged toward the green ring before vanishing into it, causing it to swell further in size while the law power fluctuations it was giving off became even more immense.
The stream of green light struck the sea of golden fire in a flash, then pierced straight through it with ease before arriving directly above the heads of the True Flame Sect cultivators.
In the blink of an eye, the streak of green light swallowed up the eight flags suspended above the heads of the True Flame Sect cultivators, and the green ring within it abruptly expanded to encompass the eight flags.
The golden flames burning over the eight flags were instantly snuffed out, following which the flags rapidly shrank down significantly in size.
The expressions of all of the True Flame Sect cultivators instantly changed drastically upon seeing this. Just now, their spiritual connection with the eight flags had suddenly been severed.
A pleased look appeared on Qu Ling's face upon seeing this, and she cast an incantation seal into the air, upon which the streak of green light surged back into the giant green gourd, bringing the eight flags along with it.
Xu Yangzi and the others were completely flabbergasted to see this. Without the support of the eight flags, the sea of golden fire in front of them exploded violently into a vast expanse of fire before quickly fading away, and with that, there was no longer anything standing in the way of the attacks of the three formidable beasts.
Countless azure silken threads swept through the air, ensnaring all of the True Flame Sect cultivators before they had a chance to react.
Immediately thereafter, two thick streaks of translucent light emerged from the nearby space before sweeping toward them like lightning, instantly slicing the bodies of all of the ensnared True Flame Sect cultivators in half.
At the same time, a cloud of glacial mist containing countless ice spikes arrived, releasing such formidable glacial qi that a white mountain of ice that was several kilometers in diameter appeared out of thin air, encapsulating all of the True Flame Sect cultivators within it.
All of the True Flame Sect cultivators had already perished at this point with the exception of the three Golden Immortals, but even they were completely immobilized and only just barely clinging to life.
Qu Ling gave a pleased nod upon seeing this, following which her brows suddenly furrowed slightly as her complexion paled noticeably.
The green gourd was extremely powerful, but she still hadn't refined it yet, so she had to expend an enormous amount of immortal spiritual power to use it.
She took a deep breath, and her complexion quickly returned to normal as she swept a sleeve toward the giant green gourd above her head.
In the blink of an eye, the gourd reverted back to its original size before returning to her grasp.
After that, she turned to the True Flame Sect cultivators encased in the mountain of ice with a cold expression, yet before she had a chance to do anything, a layer of crimson flames suddenly emerged over the bodies of the three Golden Immortals.
The three bursts of crimson fire quickly joined together to release a burst of astonishing power, and the giant mountain of ice shuddered as a large crack appeared on its surface.
The giant white python let loose a furious roar upon seeing this, but it was already too late for it to do anything.
All of a sudden, three streaks of crimson light shot out of the crack like lightning before racing away into the distance, and three nascent souls could be seen within the streaks of light.
A large plume of azure silken threads shot forth, sweeping toward the three nascent souls at an astonishing speed, but they were clearly still too slow to catch the nascent souls.
