Chapter 1756 Am I really going to die here?

The scholar in the green robe turned pale, and the flame of the ancient bronze lamp in his hand dimmed instantly.

He hurriedly formed hand seals to protect himself and resist the erosion of the omnipresent Daoist aura.

Even the phantom of the Myriad Manifestations Tree behind Ghost Ear was impacted, causing its branches and leaves to tremble violently, and hundreds of World Leaves were silently annihilated.

A look of seriousness finally appeared in his eyes: "What a domineering end-of-the-world principle! This child... must not be allowed to live!"

After the impact, the golden crow's phantom dimmed by 90%, becoming almost transparent. With a mournful cry, it shrank back into Zhang Xuan's body.

Zhang Xuan paid an even heavier price. He forcibly activated a final divine power far beyond his own capacity, causing half of his meridians to rupture, cracks to appear in his dantian, dimming the light of his two main meridians, and all thirteen side branches to wither and die!

He knelt in the shattered void, covered in blood, sustained only by his willpower.

But his eyes remained fixed on the three true immortals in front of him.

"Impressive." Ghost Ear clapped slowly, his voice icy. "With a body severely injured and on the verge of death, you were still able to unleash power that threatens a mid-stage True Immortal. Your path, your potential, is truly astonishing. Unfortunately, the difference in realms is an insurmountable chasm. That attack just now was your limit, wasn't it?"

Zhang Xuan remained silent, staring intently at him, secretly mobilizing the last remaining power within his body, preparing to burn his source energy for a final desperate attempt.

"It seems so." Ghost Ears nodded, his eyes no longer concealing their murderous intent. "I will personally send you on your way. It is your honor to die under the Guiding Force of the Void."

He slowly raised his hands, and the phantom of the Myriad Manifestations Tree behind him expanded once more, with countless mysterious Returning Void Demonic Patterns appearing on its trunk.

All the branches and leaves pointed towards Zhang Xuan at the same time, and an indescribable suction force began to be generated.

That is the pull of the Great Dao, the end of all things!

Zhang Xuan felt his physical body, soul, and even the Great Dao rules of his inner world being stripped away little by little, to be thrown into that giant tree and transformed into its nourishment!

This is the real killer move from the demon ear!

It devours all things with its own great Dao, nourishing itself in return!

Zhang Xuan's consciousness began to blur, and his body drifted forward uncontrollably.

He knew that once he was sucked in, he would be completely annihilated, without even a chance to be reincarnated.

"Am I really going to... die here?" A strong sense of resentment welled up in my heart.

Just as he was about to be completely devoured by the power of the Void.

A calm yet authoritative voice rang out.

"Gentlemen, isn't it... a bit too much to bully a young friend like this right here in my own backyard?"

The terrifying suction force of the Void suddenly stopped!

Ghost Ear's expression changed slightly, and he looked up.

At the edge of the battlefield, a figure appeared out of nowhere.

The newcomer wore a dark gold robe and a white bone crown. His face was refined and scholarly; he was none other than the Skeleton Demon Lord!

He stood with his hands behind his back, without any guards behind him, but just standing there, he was like an insurmountable demonic mountain, forcefully resisting the myriad forces of Oni-Michi!

“Bone Demon Lord!” Ghost Ear’s eyes darkened. “This matter has nothing to do with you. This boy is a serious criminal of my Wuyuan Kingdom. I hope you will do me a favor.”

"A repeat offender?" The Skeleton Demon Lord glanced at the wretched Zhang Xuan, then at the three men standing guard, a half-smile playing on his lips. "He made a move around my Bone Tomb, damaging the mountains and ley lines of my territory, disturbing the peace of the surrounding area... and then told me it had nothing to do with me?"

His tone turned cold: "Ghost Ear, do you think that the name of Wuyuan Kingdom is equally effective in this territory?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful pressure that was no less than that of the Ghost Ear descended!

The Skeleton Demon Lord's aura was filled with domineering power and immortality, like a demon god who crawled out of an ancient tomb, looking down on all living beings.

Facing the Skeleton Demon Lord, the three of them felt unprecedented pressure!

Ghost Ears was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Fellow Daoist Skeleton, this boy possesses an interdimensional passage, which is of great importance. If you are willing to do us a favor, my Wuyuan Kingdom will surely reward you handsomely."

"An interdimensional passage?" The Skeleton Demon Lord raised an eyebrow. "That's your business. In my territory, you must abide by my rules. You have overstepped your bounds."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the three men: "Now, take your people and leave. Or... I ask you to leave."

The single word "please" carried a murderous intent.

Ghost Ear's eyes flashed with a fierce light, clearly weighing the pros and cons.

Finally, he took a deep breath, suppressing the murderous intent and resentment surging in his heart.

The Skeleton Demon Lord is a peak True Immortal, renowned for a long time, but his trump cards remain unknown.

This place is also close to Bone Tomb Village, giving the other side a geographical advantage.

If relations were to break down completely, the outcome would be unpredictable, and it would certainly alarm the higher-ups of the Meteor Demon Sea, with unimaginable consequences.

“…Alright.” Ghost Ear squeezed out a single word through gritted teeth, gave the Skeleton Demon Lord a deep look, then turned to the dying Zhang Xuan, his voice icy cold, “Scarface, you’re lucky to be alive today. But the Wuyuan Kingdom is determined to obtain the passage. The Skeleton Demon Lord can protect you for a while, but not forever. We… will meet again.”

After saying that, he waved his sleeve, sweeping up the red-haired giant and the scholar in the green robe, transforming them into a streak of light that vanished into the horizon in an instant.

Only after the three people's auras completely disappeared did the Skeleton Demon Lord withdraw his gaze and look at Zhang Xuan, who was in a miserable state.

Zhang Xuan, clinging to his last shred of consciousness, croaked, "Thank you... Demon Lord..."

The Skeleton Demon Lord remained expressionless, raising his hand to grab at Zhang Xuan from a distance. A gentle yet irresistible force lifted Zhang Xuan up.

"No need to thank me. I saved you only because you are still valuable to Bone Tomb Collection while you are alive." He said calmly, "But after today, Bone Tomb Collection is no longer a safe place for you. Since the Kingdom of Wuyuan has its eye on you, this place is no longer safe. I will give you three days to settle everything in the Pavilion of Exotic Treasures and then leave. If you are still within my territory after three days... don't blame me for taking action personally."

Having said that, he said no more, and with Zhang Xuan, he transformed into a streak of dark golden light and headed towards the Bone Tomb Settlement.

The dark golden light tore through the night and plunged into the Pavilion of Exotic Treasures.

Zhang Xuan could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground.

After settling Zhang Xuan in the Pavilion of Exotic Treasures, the Skeleton Demon Lord left.

"Owner!"

Seeing Zhang Xuan faint, the demon fetus cried out and rushed forward, but was stopped by the old slick man.

"Don't touch him!"

The old man's face was ashen, his fingertips radiating sword intent as he carefully parted Zhang Xuan's tattered robes.

The sight before him made him gasp in shock.

On Zhang Xuan's chest, a huge wound running from front to back was shocking, with the edges of flesh charred and rolled up.

"The inner vision crumbles, the Dharma form becomes illusory..."

The old man's voice was deep as he lightly touched Zhang Xuan's brow with his fingertips. He sensed that the once majestic, thousand-foot-tall demonic avatar was now just a thin, almost transparent shadow, swaying and about to dissipate in Zhang Xuan's sea of ​​consciousness.

The two main pillars that run through Zhang Xuandao's foundation—the True Demon Body and the Golden Crow's Fall—are now dim in light, and their main pillars are covered with fine cracks.

In particular, the main trunk of the Golden Crow that fell to earth was almost completely burned out due to the forced activation of the Ragnarok of the Gods, and its color turned gray.
