Chapter 243 If they don't act now, they'll be saved.
Several Hilichurls wandering around were controlled by the Abyss Mage and headed downwards towards the "core".
Just as they were getting close to the "core", the mutation occurred.
The bodies of those Hilichurls were visibly shriveling up at a rapid pace, and the loss of life caused them to let out a few pitiful howls.
But their wailing lasted only a few seconds before they were completely devoid of life and turned into a pile of bones.
Upon seeing this, the abyssal monsters in the original vehicle all gasped in shock.
The monsters all looked at the ice mage with admiration.
If it had been them who just passed by, they would probably have ended up like those Hilichurls, a pile of bones that could be blown away by the wind at any moment.
......
The nail in the cold sky.
Shiraki observed it for a long time but couldn't figure out what was so special about it.
Do you know what this thing is used for?
Unable to figure it out, Shiramu simply asked the others around him.
They are, after all, gods, so they should know something about this, more or less.
"This is the punishment that Sky Island has bestowed."
"It is said that this thing can suppress forces outside the world."
Zhongli stroked his chin and thought for a moment before speaking.
In fact, they didn't know much about the Frost Nails, since they originated from Sky Island and weren't specifically designed for them.
"Suppressing forces outside the world?"
"Can it suppress the principles of Heaven?"
Bai Mu frowned and subconsciously asked another question.
However, after hearing Bai Mu's words, everyone else looked at him as if he were an idiot.
Noticing the gazes directed at him, Bai Mu paused briefly before realizing the problem with his words.
This thing comes from Sky Island, so it can be considered a weapon of Heaven's Law.
He intends to use the weapon of Heavenly Principle to fight against Heavenly Principle.
That's impossible, isn't it?
"Cough cough."
"I didn't think well enough."
Shiraki coughed lightly to ease his embarrassment.
"Boom!"
Just then, the ground beneath everyone's feet suddenly began to shake violently.
Zhongli's expression turned slightly grave. He stared at the ground below, and after a long while, he addressed the crowd:
"You all go ahead with your work, I need to go take a look."
After saying that, Zhongli vanished in a flash.
After he left, the Dragon King Ruoduo glanced around and then eagerly followed in Zhongli's footsteps.
After Zhongli left, Bai Mu glanced at the Frost Nail hanging above his head.
Judging from the situation here, this Frostfire Nail is very likely used by Heaven to suppress the Abyss.
Thinking about this, Shiraki decided it was better to leave the nail there.
They then left the location of the Frost Spike and returned to the "Nameless Ruins".
"Slash over there, and put more force into it."
At this moment, Bai Mu suddenly pointed in a direction and gave an order to Ying beside him.
Hearing this, Ying was somewhat confused, but she still did as Bai Mu instructed.
A purple light illuminated the main scene of the "Nameless Ruins," and the blade's edge landed right near several hiding abyss mages and apostles.
The moment they came into contact with the blade's edge, the demons didn't even have time to think before they vanished.
After the blade of light disappeared into the ground, it seemed to vanish without causing any impact on the area.
Ying stared at the spot where the blade's edge had disappeared, his brows furrowed slightly.
As if sensing something, she slightly opened her mouth and softly called out to those below:
"Destroy."
......
In a secret place in the lower mining area.
"what!"
"What are all those things?!"
Paimon's terrified voice echoed across the Great Power Disc.
After experiencing countless life-or-death crises, they finally found a way to leave.
However, their joy was short-lived. While Xiao was controlling the Taiwei Instrument, countless black and red, vengeful spirit-like creatures began to entangle them.
Looking at the vengeful spirits surrounding the Taiwei Instrument, Xiao was anxious, but he had no choice but to maintain the operation of the Taiwei Instrument and did not have the extra energy to help others.
At this moment, all he could do was pray in his heart that Ying and the others could leave before he ran out of power.
Ying's bladeless sword was almost chipped from being hacked, but the number of vengeful spirits around her showed no sign of decreasing.
"Ying, what should we do?"
"Is there anything you can do?"
Paimon's anxious voice came from the side.
Ying frowned, but she was completely helpless at the moment.
[If we had been able to pull Shiraki over earlier, we probably wouldn't be in this danger now, right?]
Ying couldn't help but think this to herself.
At the same time, she made a decision in her heart: if she could get out of here alive, then in the future, whenever there was a very dangerous mission, she would definitely try to trick Bai Mu into going there if she could contact him.
...
"Zhongli, it's time for you to make your move."
Somewhere, the Dragon King Ruoduo patted Zhongli's hand, reminding him.
"No rush, they can hold on a little longer."
Zhongli shook his head and did not act immediately.
Anyway, he's right here now, so no matter how dangerous it is for Xiao and the others, their lives won't be in danger.
"Boom."
"Haha, if you don't step in soon, they'll be saved."
A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, and the Dragon King Ruotu uttered a mocking sound at Zhongli.
Looking at the seemingly invincible purple blade of light in the distance, Zhongli smiled and shook his head.
"Let's go up first, she's already taken care of it for us."
...
"ah!"
"Ying, that woman is after us!"
The moment the blade of light appeared, the people standing on the Taiwei Instrument Plate noticed it.
Seeing this purple light, a glimmer of hope appeared on the faces of the others, but Ying and Paimon's hearts sank to the bottom.
"Is this some senior figure who is helping us?"
Ye Lan looked hopefully at the purple blade of light approaching them from not far away, and his tense mood relaxed a little.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Ying really couldn't bear to "tell them the truth".
She swallowed hard, bracing herself for the blade's edge that was about to strike her.
As Jiuqi Shinobu stood beneath the purple light, a sense of familiarity lingered in her heart, refusing to dissipate for a long time.
The purple light landed on the Taiwei Instrument Plate in the blink of an eye, but to Ying's surprise, the purple light did not cause any harm to them, but the vengeful spirits wandering around the Taiwei Instrument Plate suffered.
All around, wails rose. The vengeful spirits that had been swaggering around the Taiwei Instrument Plate had completely lost their arrogance after coming into contact with the purple light.
They couldn't even escape back underground; they were instantly annihilated into nothingness.
