"Let's see how much of my setup has been destroyed."

"No one can block my path to immortality."

Li Jingning's plan was to turn from death to life, to live another life, and become a truly exalted immortal.

The vast Blood River instantly dropped several tens of centimeters. Zombie Immortal Li Jingning seized the moment before the Blood Demon erupted and turned into an endless Blood Mist, leaving this place.

As a Zombie Immortal, she naturally mastered Blood Magic. However, this Blood River had already been marked by the Blood Demon with its imprint.

If one wanted to absorb all the Blood River into their body, they would inevitably have to contend with the consciousness of the Blood Demon.

The Zombie Immortal, whose full power had not yet been restored, naturally did not want to continue fighting the Blood Demon.

So she only absorbed some blood to restore her own body.

Heroic Cemetery.

Thunderbirds, emitting flashing Thunder Light, circled in the sky.

Their numbers began to increase.

At this moment, the Corpse Speaker suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.

Hatred appeared in his eyes, and the Corpse Speaker looked at Ye Bai with a frightening gaze.

"Damn it, where exactly did you teleport my Millennium Zombie? How did it cut off its connection with me and dissolve our contract?"

The Corpse Speaker was unusually panicked at this moment; it was the first time he felt things were beyond his expectations.

Ye Bai said with a smile, "Take a guess."

"Your Lifebound Pet has cut off the connection with you, and now your power has diminished greatly."

"Just stay here quietly, I won't show mercy."

"You scum of the Death God Association."

"Big Gray, go."

The Thunder Sword had been frozen by Ye Bai, the Millennium Zombie teleported away by the Space Pelican, and now the Corpse Speaker's main Pet Beasts were only Lan, Long, and Lian.

Originally, Zhang Lingxue's Pet Beasts were enough to suppress the opponent. Now with Ye Bai's Big Gray entering the battlefield, the main Pet Beasts of the Corpse Speaker were retreating step by step.

The Corpse Speaker had never fought such a frustrating battle.

He felt he was being pressed by Zhang Lingxue all the time.

"Damn it."

The Corpse Speaker felt he was being beaten one-sidedly.

He couldn't understand why Zhang Lingxue, a researcher, would have such formidable combat strength.

"Hmph, do you think I'm only capable of that?"

"As a Puppet Master and Necromancer of the Death God Association."

"I also possess the power to resurrect the undead."

"Undead who lie dormant underground, heed my call, and resurrect!"

Just as the Corpse Speaker was about to unleash an Undead Calamity, Ye Bai snapped his fingers crisply.

All the Sunflower Emperors used Holy Light Shining, and even the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm directly mimicked the Light Goddess Butterfly.

The scorching light almost blinded the Corpse Speaker.

"Damn it, how do you have so many light-type Pet Beasts?"

The Corpse Speaker's body was emitting bursts of black mist.

Zhang Lingxue helplessly said to Ye Bai, "Could you give me a heads-up before making the Sunflower Emperor use Holy Light Shining?"

"Let me wear sunglasses, this sudden strong light, who can stand it."

Ye Bai scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Hahaha, don't think that just because I've lost my Lifebound Pet Beast, I can't achieve Ultimate Sublimation."

"Long, Lian, Lan, lend me your power."

At that moment, three star-blue butterflies appeared and landed on the backs of Long, Lian, and Lan.

Star-blue light erupted, forming a thick Barrier.

Through the Eye of True Sight, Ye Bai saw that the Barrier isolated the manipulation of Soul Puppet Threads.

The three Corpse Puppets all stopped.

Zhang Lingxue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

These three Corpse Puppets were the Corpse Speaker's greatest reliance.

Zhang Lingxue instructed the Blood Gu Butterfly to use the Blood Gu Drill to enter the bodies of the Corpse Puppets, encouraging the Blood Gu to proliferate and achieve control over the Puppets.

After all, these Corpse Puppets were also the pitiable victims cruelly harmed by the Corpse Speaker.

She commanded the Poison Dragon Butterfly, Dark Butterfly, and True Bright Goddess Butterfly to battle the Corpse Puppets for an entire night, feeling a trace of fatigue.

But the end of the battle was nearing quickly.

The Corpse Speaker could not be allowed to remain; just the desecration of heroic souls warranted the harshest punishment.

Zhang Lingxue waved her hand, and the three Corpse Puppets disappeared into her Pet Beast Space.

"Hahaha."

"Do you think you've got me?"

The Corpse Speaker grinned.

"Unfortunately, the person capable of judging me hasn't been born yet."

"You gaze into the abyss, and the abyss gazes back at you."

The Corpse Speaker suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Lingxue, wielding a sharp dagger, stabbing fiercely at Zhang Lingxue's brow.

"Careful, Holy Light Protection."

Ye Bai quickly shouted.

Five layers of milky white Protective Shields appeared in succession; the dagger of the Corpse Speaker pierced through four layers of shields before finally coming to a halt.

Zhang Lingxue watched the Corpse Speaker at close range; she discovered that the Corpse Speaker also had the transformation rune of a Corpse Puppet on his body.

Her heart skipped a beat — had the Corpse Speaker refined his own body into a Corpse Puppet?

The Corpse Speaker chuckled, "That's right, you're thinking right; I indeed refined myself into a Corpse Puppet."

"Actually, I am my own Lifebound Pet Beast."

"The Millennium Zombie was merely a backup."

"Just become my work of art."

The Corpse Speaker once again swung the black dagger towards Zhang Lingxue.

South Heaven Gate Fortress.

As the Secret Realm slowly opened.

A giant ripple with a diameter of several dozen meters appeared in the sky.

This is the entrance to the Secret Realm.

The Flood Dragon summoned Hellfire and cast the bait into the air.

The Thunderbird flock, which was originally calm, instantly went into a frenzy the moment the bait appeared, like ants in a boiling pot.

They all rushed towards the bait.

"It's working, it's working!"

The Flood Dragon breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the bait suddenly emitted a dazzling bright light under the stimulation of the electric arc.

With just a moment, the ground seemed to be torn by an invisible force into shreds.

The shield of the South Heaven Gate Fortress shattered with this sudden blast in the air.

The explosion's shockwave alone tore a third of the Thunderbirds to pieces.

Golden arcs of electricity filled the air.

Lightning flickered in the sky.

The Thunderbird flock, once so calm, was now in chaos.

Some of its members, caught in the center of the explosion, had been obliterated into nothingness.

Led by the Thunderbird Emperor, those left living formed a menacing storm cloud in the sky, preparing for a powerful counterattack.

The onslaught of lightning was relentless, as if the power of heaven and a raging storm were joining forces to wreak havoc.

The Southern Heaven Gate Fortress's barrier began to form cracks from the massive shock wave as the struggle intensified.

The sheer ferocity of this attack left everyone in the fortress scrambling, desperate to find how things had spiraled so far out of control.
