Chapter 1736 - 1732: Something’s Not Right
"It works! Good!" Fire Spirit Child’s eyes lit up with joy, and he activated the Mysterious Witch Fire within the Netherworld Furnace, wrapping it tightly around the Six Chen Whip.
Outside the Free and Easy Mirror, large dark spots had already emerged on the Blood Essence Banner, clearly eroded severely by Demon Fire. If this continued, it would surely follow the same fate as the Thousand Cup Golden Goblet.
Shen Luo’s gaze darkened slightly, and he waved his hand to retrieve the Blood Essence Banner.
The surging Blood River immediately vanished, leaving a large wave of Demonic Flames without obstruction, which quickly surged toward him.
However, Shen Luo raised his hand and pointed toward the void. Ten Pure Yang Flying Swords instantly shot forth, weaving rapidly through the air, and in the blink of an eye, they formed a Golden Sword Array, rising in mid-air like a blazing sun that enveloped Shen Luo’s body. From the outside, only a ball of golden light could be seen.
Within the Golden Sword Array, the Three-legged Golden Crow Sword Spirit could be faintly seen spreading its wings and spiraling. Yet, it did not actively attack the Demonic Flame Fox Spirit and instead expanded the influence of the sword light to the utmost, continuously releasing Golden Crow True Fire to burn the surroundings.
"The Sword Array!" The three grey-clothed men outside saw this and their expressions darkened in unison. They immediately intensified the Demonic Array, causing more black Demonic Flames to spew forth, which rapidly coalesced into a black sea of flames, enveloping Shen Luo and the Golden Sword Array in an intense furnace-like burn.
The deep rumbling sound of explosions erupted continuously. Boosted by the Golden Sword Array, the Golden Crow True Fire became significantly more potent. Though the black Demonic Flames were immensely powerful, the Golden Crow True Fire still managed to keep them entirely at bay.
Moreover, the blazing heat of the Golden Crow Flames, imbued with Pure Yang Power, burned away much of the corruptive Demonic Qi within the black flames and greatly slowed their erosion of the Golden Sword Array compared to before.
Seeing this, Shen Luo secretly breathed a sigh of relief and sent both the Thousand Cup Golden Goblet and the Blood Essence Banner into a bamboo house within the Free and Easy Mirror. This was his designated place to store the Blood Claw Stab and the Demonslaying Divine Sword.
