Chapter 2445: True Immortal Descends Strong Armored Porpoise Warrior

"It's nothing, just some insolent fellow who's caught up to us," Ma Liang said indifferently.

"To think such a fool would dare to chase us. Allow me to handle him, then," Yang Lu said respectfully.

"His cultivation isn't weak. You might not easily defeat him," Ma Liang replied, shaking his head.

"He possesses such strength? Could it be that individual from the Armored Boar Clan? How coincidental," Yang Lu said, startled at first, but then something came to mind, and a strange expression appeared on his face.

"Oh, you know who's pursuing us?" Ma Liang glanced at Yang Lu, appearing quite interested.

"If I'm not mistaken, that person should be the renowned First Grand Elder of the Armored Boar Clan. It's said his power is in no way inferior to ours as True Spirits, and his fame is great enough to rank among the top five in the entire Spirit Realm," Yang Lu said with a hint of solemnity.

"Top five? No wonder he dared to pursue us alone. In that case, we shall give him a proper welcome and refine his soul into the main spirit for the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Seal," Ma Liang sneered.

With a flick of his sleeve, a blood-red seal, an inch in size, shot out. It flashed once before transforming into a ball of bloody light and vanishing into the void.

Beside him, Yang Lu's expression subtly changed when he saw the blood-red seal.

This artifact was formidable; he had experienced its power firsthand when he and two other True Spirits had fought against Ma Liang.

Had the three of them not been unable to withstand the terrifying might of this seal even when fighting together, they would not have been forced to resort to the self-destructive Law Chain technique.

Just as Yang Lu was still reeling, a thunderous roar echoed in the sky behind them. A white bone flying chariot, dozens of feet long, materialized amidst countless silver arcs. After a few more flashes, it appeared with a rumble about a hundred feet away in the void, stopping abruptly in mid-air.

At the front of the white bone flying chariot stood a gaunt, slender old man from the Armored Boar Clan.

The old man had long, graying hair and eerie green eyes. His arms were crossed in front of him, adorned with over a dozen bone rings of varying sizes. On each shoulder, a several-foot-tall bone banner swayed in the wind. The banners were shrouded in a hazy gray, yet countless ghostly figures indistinctly flickered within them, accompanied by faint wails and howls.

"A True Spirit?"

The old man from the Armored Boar Clan on the white bone chariot merely swept his gaze over the two figures opposite him. His pupils immediately constricted, focusing on Yang Lu, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh, you have sharp eyes indeed, to recognize my origin so quickly," Yang Lu replied impassively, though he too was quite surprised.

"Since you are a True Spirit, why did you unleash such slaughter in my clan's forbidden land? And even destroy our clan's cross-continental teleportation array?" the Armored Boar Clan elder asked, his expression shifting between dark and clear for a moment before finally softening.

"It's nothing. Your clansmen simply lacked discernment, daring to offend my master. They could only atone with their lives," Yang Lu replied casually.

"Master?"

The Armored Boar Clan elder was truly shocked now. His gaze shifted immediately to Ma Liang.

The Armored Boar Clan expert, after scanning the black robes and somewhat pale face of the other man, had a flash of insight. He immediately recalled a piece of news he had recently received. His heart sank, but he showed no outward sign of alarm, instead replying with a sudden smile:

"It seems my younger clansmen were the ones who offended you two first. In that case, I, on behalf of my clan, offer our apologies. Let's consider this matter closed. I have other matters to attend to, so I won't linger here. I'll take my leave now."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the Armored Boar Clan elder lightly tapped one foot. With a crack of thunder, the bone chariot beneath him shot backward amidst countless arcing electrical currents.

"Heh heh, since you've come, don't leave," Yang Lu sneered. He took a decisive step forward, simultaneously grabbing at the air with one hand. The black giant axe instantly materialized in his grasp, and with a swing, he powerfully struck it forward.

With a "whoosh."

A dark, hazy blade light flashed from the black axe, transforming into a black tide that surged directly towards the bone chariot.

Seeing this, the Armored Boar Clan elder on the bone chariot's face fell. He merely twitched an arm, and a bone ring on it shot out. With a wailing sound, it instantly grew to an enormous size, covering an acre, its surface shimmering with countless gray-white runes, and collided with the black blade light.

A world-shaking boom resounded.

The bone ring recoiled, shrinking back to its original size, while the black blade light completely dispersed and was extinguished by the impact.

However, the white bone flying chariot's retreat speed appeared completely unaffected, and in a flash, it was over a thousand feet away.

Just as the Armored Boar Clan elder exhaled softly, his heart relaxing as he prepared to fully activate the chariot to turn around and make a full escape, a sudden colossal rumble echoed in the sky. A phantom blood-red seal, like a small mountain, materialized out of thin air and slowly descended.

The seal appeared to descend slowly, but after a blur, it silently appeared directly above the white bone flying chariot. Simultaneously, a wave of law fluctuations instantly swept down, bringing with it the aura of death.

The Armored Boar Clan elder's heart chilled. He hastily shook both shoulders, and the two white bone banners instantly shot out. Expanding in the wind, they each became dozens of feet long. The wails of ghosts intensified within them, and hundreds of malevolent spirits immediately surged forth. Each had a blue face, fangs, and astonishing malevolent aura, possessing the terrifying power of the Body Integration stage.

Simultaneously, over a dozen bone rings shot out from the elder's arms. Some whistled eerily, others expanded and contracted unpredictably, each displaying different powers as they hurtled towards the phantom blood-red seal.

A continuous series of colossal booms immediately reverberated through the air.

The dozen-plus bone rings, arriving after the initial attack, shattered into countless pieces upon contact with the phantom seal.

The hundreds of malevolent spirits, swept in by the law fluctuations of the blood-red seal, also disintegrated and vanished in a flash.

The phantom blood-red seal continued to press down, seemingly unaffected.

Witnessing this, the Armored Boar Clan elder's face paled drastically. Without hesitation, he fiercely performed a hand seal, instantly pouring all his immense magic power into the flying chariot beneath him.

Instantly, silver arcs flashed wildly across the white bone flying chariot. It blurred, then astonishingly transformed into a five-clawed bone dragon wreathed in electrical arcs. After letting out an enraged roar, it prepared to teleport away from its current position in a flash.

From a distance, Ma Liang, seeing this, merely snorted. He formed a hand seal with one hand and pointed a finger at the blood-red seal.

The phantom seal immediately shimmered, and a patch of blood-red runes flashed across its surface before vanishing.

At the same time, several "bang," "bang" sounds came from around the bone dragon below. Several blood-red tentacles shot out from the void, unexpectedly coiling around the bone dragon like chains.

Despite the thunderous roars emanating from the bone dragon and its desperate thrashing, it could not free itself from the tentacles in the slightest.

The Armored Boar Clan elder, standing on the bone dragon's head, felt his heart turn cold, but he immediately let out a low roar. He opened his mouth, and several clots of vital blood transformed into a blood mist, spraying onto the bone dragon.

Instantly, a dragon's roar echoed in the air as the bone dragon's body frantically expanded within the electrical arcs. In a blink, it thrashed its head and tail, growing to over a thousand feet in size, seemingly intending to forcefully break free from the blood-red tentacles with its immense form.

But then, something that made the elder's heart sink occurred.

The dozen-plus blood-red tentacles, astonishingly, also grew rapidly with the bone dragon's expansion. Like maggots clinging to bone, they remained wrapped around the bone dragon, and after a final flash, transformed into a surging river of blood, completely engulfing the bone dragon within.

The Armored Boar Clan elder's face turned incredibly grim. After sweeping his divine sense over the immense power of law contained within the aerial seal once more, a faint trace of fear inevitably appeared on his face.

"Very well, very well. It seems I have no choice but to stay. Then allow this old man to experience your Immortal Realm secret arts," the Armored Boar Clan elder resolved, gritting his teeth. With one hand, he slapped his head, and his skull cap astonishingly flashed open on its own.

A wave of Sanskrit chanting emanated from within his skull, and a small figure, identical in appearance to the elder, flew out.

Unlike the elder's main body, this small figure wore gleaming golden armor. It held a crimson long spear in one hand and a small white bone bell in the other, but strikingly, it also had a hideously ferocious ghostly face on the back of its head.

The moment the small figure flew out, it immediately twisted its body, blurring and conjuring over a dozen identical phantom figures of itself.

These phantom figures simultaneously raised their crimson long spears skyward, and instantly, a dozen streams of rolling crimson flames surged forth. When they converged at a single point, they transformed into an enormous fiery python with over a dozen heads.

After all the colossal beast's heads let out a hiss, it lunged towards the giant phantom seal in the sky.

At the same time, the small white bone bells in the other hands of these phantom figures were all thrown out. Expanding in the wind, they became several feet in size, and after a shake, the air was immediately filled with crisp, "clang-clang" sounds of bells.

"How interesting. I didn't expect someone on this Wind Yuan Continent would plan to strike first and gather numerous experts to deal with me. The Helian Merchant Alliance... it seems the expert whose soul I killed and refined on the Blood Sky Continent was also from this alliance. Since its members are so fearless of death, I shall go directly to their doorstep and eradicate this alliance first," Ma Liang said with a cold laugh, releasing his grip, and the corpse of the Armored Boar Clan elder, resembling a lifeless object, plummeted from the sky.

"The Helian Merchant Alliance? Their strength is indeed considerable, even rivaling that of the Horned Chi Clan. Master, you should still be cautious," Yang Lu said respectfully from the side.

After witnessing how effortlessly this True Immortal dealt with an expert whose power was no less than his own, the True Spirit no longer dared to harbor any other thoughts.

"The stronger this alliance is, the more suitable it is to be a target, serving as a warning to others. Otherwise, if I wait for them to gather the continent's experts, though I'm not afraid, I don't wish to delay my important matters. But before I do that, I need to use a secret technique to determine if the target I'm searching for on this journey is on this continent," Ma Liang said unhurriedly after a moment of contemplation.
