Chapter 1585 (Raw 1567): Breaking Through the Veritable Essence Stage

At the mouth of the cave, Fang Yun, who was skilled and bold, took the lead in entering the formation.

There were three layers of formations within the restriction. The first layer was a bewilderment formation; then, there were two layers of killing formations. Combined, they posed a great threat.

However, since Fang Yun dared to enter, he clearly thought of a countermeasure.

After the four stepped into the formation, the scene before them immediately changed radically, hazy, white fog encasing them.

Occasionally, wind blew in the fog, interfering with their perception.

Fang Yun took in their surroundings before saying, "This bewilderment formation is not too impressive. Give me some time, and I can break it. There is no need to panic. Just calmly deal with it."

No matter how strong the formation was, the people who laid it were Luo Nan and Fei`er. So, it would not be ridiculously strong.

The four possessed outstanding strength. Fang Yun, Liu Mu, and Tuoba Yun were sufficient to deal with the situation. As for the Lotus Sect Temple's Feng Yun, he walked at the back without needing to do much.

"Junior Sister, activate both layers of killing formations with me and spread them apart."

"Alright."

Fei`er nodded gently and formed hand seals with both hands, her expression grave.

"Crack!"

Amid the hazy white fog, an overwhelming sea wave suddenly surged over from in front, towering to the sky. It was scary and startling as it rushed over, looking like it would swallow everything up.

"Paltry tricks!"

The Flying Snow Palace's Liu Mu did not show any fear in the face of the impending danger. Instead, he smiled coldly as he threw a palm strike just as the overwhelming sea wave was about to arrive.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

This palm strike kicked up a boundless cold wind. The wind also contained crystalline snowflakes that flickered with flowing light.

When the thousands of snowflakes entered the sea wave, they gradually slowed it.

Soon, the sea wave looked like it was moving in slow motion before finally freezing completely.

"Bang!"

Tuoba Yun charged forward ferociously and kicked. The frozen sea wave immediately shattered into thousands of pieces.

However, before the group could be happy, the moment the ice shattered, a tornado came from each side, whirling rapidly.

The few hastily tried to dodge. However, when they looked around, they discovered that their formation was messed up.

"Don't panic. Protect yourselves. I'll immediately break the bewilderment formation."

Just as Tuoba Yun and the others were somewhat flustered, Fang Yun's calm voice rang out by their ears.

"Whoosh!"

A cool breeze blew, and Fang Yun broke some nodes of the bewilderment formation. The dense fog instantly dispersed significantly, and the separated people soon calmed down.

"Don't let Fang Yun break the bewilderment formation!" Luo Nan panicked. Unexpectedly, Fang Yun was so strong.

If this went on without any interference, the bewilderment formation would be broken right away.

Once the bewilderment formation was broken, the two layers of killing formations would not last long against the three strong opponents.

Then, Luo Nan and Fei`er would end up getting slaughtered.

Tuoba Yun and Liu Mu were already hard to handle. With Fang Yun added, the outcome was clear.

Luo Nan gave Fei`er a look. Then, Fei`er nodded and slowly formed hand seals.

A strand of killing Qi tore through the fog amid the bewilderment formation, piercing towards Fang Yun, who was focused on breaking the formation.

"Dang!"

Fang Yun raised a hand and shattered this strand of killing Qi, only to discover that it was just an illusion.

Fang Yun, you fell for it, Luo Nan rejoiced in his heart. Then, his figure appeared behind Fang Yun, thrusting his sword as fast as lightning.

Who knew, something strange happened. Luo Nan's sword pierced through Fang Yun, but it was also an illusion.

Just as Luo Nan hastily retreated, Fang Yun suddenly appeared from the left and landed a palm strike on his shoulder, sending him flying back and vomiting blood.

"Trying to trick me? You two are too inexperienced."

Seeing the other party retreating into the dense fog, Fang Yun smiled faintly and did not give chase.

Outside the cave, the three ferocious beasts rushed over. When they saw the restriction covered in dense fog, they cautiously chose to stop.

At their level, these ferocious beasts were no longer mindless wild beasts.

There are sounds of a fight. It looks like there is more than one group of people.

I wonder which group Lord Jiao Snake wants us to kill?

The demonic black ape said in a voice projection, Since it did not specify, let's kill them all. However, there is no need to rush for now. These sect disciples are extraordinarily strong. We should wait until they have killed and weakened each other first before going in.

"Right."

After some discussion, they decided to watch, waiting to take advantage of the two groups' fighting unaware of the looming danger. These ferocious beasts were rather wise.

---

"Oh no, Fei`er and Luo Nan can't hold out for long."

The situation in the restriction startled Xiao Chen, who was currently fighting to the death with the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy. Unexpectedly, the situation would take such a turn for the worse.

The bewilderment formation had already broken. With three attacking, the two layers of killing formations showed signs of crumbling at any moment.

Luckily, Little Yellow Feather suddenly attacked, catching the enemy off guard. Otherwise, the situation would be worse.

At this moment, Xiao Chen was rather anxious but could not afford any distraction.

The malicious spirit of the Baleful Yin Energy was waging war in his sea of consciousness while the Baleful Yin Energy rampaged in his body—he faced problems on two fronts.

If he did not have to tame the Baleful Yin Energy, using his strong Soul Energy to kill the spirit of this ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy would be easy.

However, he still had to refine the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy, which gave the spirit in his sea of consciousness a chance to wreak havoc.

Right now, Xiao Chen had two choices. He could give up on refining the Baleful Yin Energy and let it out of his body. Then, he could place his full effort into dealing with the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy's spirit before going to help Luo Nan and Fei`er.

Or he could put his life on the line, taking the risk out of desperation, and forcibly refine the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy without caring for anything else, delaying dealing with the spirit of the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy until after he advanced to the Yin Essence Stage.

The first option was stable and would protect Xiao Chen's life. However, he would lose the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy.

The latter option was radical. Once it failed, all three of them would lose their lives.

To gamble or not to gamble?

Gamble!

In the time it took for a spark to fly, Xiao Chen came to a decision. He had never been an indecisive and irresolute person.

Having come to this Great Thousand Realms, he needed to stand out and not be ordinary.

He needed to fight. To fight with heaven, to fight with people, and to fight with himself!

With this thought, Xiao Chen endured the torture of the malicious spirit in his sea of consciousness. He focused fully on refining the Baleful Yin Energy and continuously circulated the Veritable Essence Energy in his body.

The Purple Thunder Divine Incantation's tenth layer circulated madly at an unprecedented speed.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Countless purple lightning bolts shot out of his body as his long hair fluttered wildly in the air.

When Xiao Chen circulated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation to the fullest, his skin turned purple with sparks flickering everywhere.

"Crackle! Crackle!" The sparks crackled endlessly.

The expression on Xiao Chen's delicate face kept changing, appearing malevolent and scary.

This was the result of the spirit of the Baleful Yin Energy warring in his sea of consciousness, trying to usurp his sea of consciousness and body.

The Baleful Yin Energy was like a herd of unruly wild horses being restrained one by one in Xiao Chen's meridians and subdued into obedience.

As he refined the Baleful Yin Energy, he also continuously converted it into Yin Essence Energy.

Xiao Chen felt his bottleneck shaking loose already; he could break through at any moment.

The Yin Essence Energy refined from the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy was like a berserk flood gathering strength nonstop against the firm dam that was Xiao Chen's bottleneck.

This dam endured the increasingly turbulent floodwaters over and over again. It looked like it would collapse but did not in the end.

The situation at the front of the cave was already dire. One of the two killing formations had already shattered, leaving only the final layer.

At this moment, Xiao Chen wished that his accumulations were not so deep and vast.

Otherwise, his bottleneck would not be so difficult to break through.

For most people, the bottleneck of the Veritable Essence Stage could be broken through with just Yin Essence Stones, nowhere as extreme as Xiao Chen's.

---

"There is only one layer of killing formations left. Luo Nan, if the two of you surrender yourselves, I can leave you a path to life," Fang Yun said unhurriedly, slowly wearing down the two. Victory was already at hand, and there was nothing left to fear.

Only Ye Bai, who should be absorbing the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy, remained.

There was no need to rush on this aspect; Fang Yun believed that Ye Bai would not be able to absorb much of the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy even in three days.

"Damn it! Junior Sister, you should leave. I'll deal with this. I'll repay what we owe Ye Bai alone."

At this moment, Luo Nan's clothes were tattered, and blood leaked out of his mouth. He appeared pale, and the situation did not look good.

"Too late! Now, none of you can leave! Wind!"

Suddenly, a strong wind erupted from Fang Yun's body. When he threw a palm strike, he made this boundless wind explode. Amid the intense blast, the final layer of killing formations crumbled. Fei`er and Luo Nan both went flying back while vomiting blood.

However, the moment the last killing formation shattered, the smiles of the four froze simultaneously as if they saw a ghost.

Without the obstruction of the killing formations, the scene of Xiao Chen absorbing the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy appeared before the four.

Berserk lightning, strong gusts of wind, a malevolent face, and a terrifying aura came from Xiao Chen's body.

The four squinted, not daring to look at him directly. That aura continuously knocked and pushed them back.

"This is?"

"He is refining the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy alone!" Fang Yun and his companions all exclaimed.

To think that Ye Bai was monopolizing the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy, trying to use it to break through.

A horrified expression appeared in Fang Yun's eyes. Then, he charged at Xiao Chen, leading the other three, roaring, "Kill him, quickly kill him. Otherwise, we will all die!"

Resisting the enormous pressure, the four soared into the air and slowly closed in on Xiao Chen.

In the time it took for a spark to fly, Xiao Chen's eyes suddenly opened.

"Boom!"

An explosive shock wave surged out from Xiao Chen's body. The four, who were only one step away from killing Xiao Chen, were knocked back.

Fang Yun aside, the other three fell to the ground in sorry states, with pained expressions.
