Albert and his two companions paused, refraining from eliminating these Evil Creatures; instead, they let the creatures slither past them. For as the blood-red flesh snakes poured out, a strange sound suddenly emanated from the dilapidated building, and the ground also began to tremble slightly at that moment.After more than ten breaths, a bizarre snake, roughly over ten meters long, slithered out of the darkness of the broken house.This strange snake was also composed entirely of bright red flesh and blood. As it dragged its body along, it left a trail of scarlet blood on the ground. This blood clearly possessed extremely strong corrosive power—wherever it passed, the ground was etched with a corroded mark.It had eight limbs under its abdomen, resembling both a spider and a giant python. Moreover, in the place where a snake’s head should have been, there was a human head. This head turned slowly, its pupils pale white, exuding an eerie and uncanny aura.From the strange snake’s bod

In particular, those serpentine Evil Creatures were scurrying over at top speed.Domain of Radiance!Just then, Emily’s cold voice rang out.Brilliant radiance erupted from her as the source, sweeping out in all directions without hesitation.Under that extremely pure power of light, the endless black mist dissipated in an instant, and the area around the city center seemed to be purified in the blink of an eye.Some weak Evil Creatures vanished into thin air on the spot.Even those Earth Catastrophe-level serpentine Evil Creatures suddenly froze in their tracks. Streaks of glowing halos appeared out of nowhere, coiling around their bodies and pinning them in place, leaving them utterly unable to move an inch.Emily stood atop the roof of a broken pavilion, her sword planted firmly beside her as a support. Her golden eyes scanned the entire scene. After confirming that all the serpentine Evil Creatures had been temporarily suppressed, her gaze shifted to Albert.Albert instantly under

The armored figure in black didn’t hesitate for a second—he shot backward in retreat, his body crashing into the piles of rubble. Now that his plan had failed, escaping was his only option.Trying to leave?A familiar graceful figure flashed into view in front of Albert. Emily’s golden eyes, icy cold, locked onto the rapidly fleeing silhouette, a murderous intent swirling in her gaze.Earlier, when Albert had engaged in combat, she’d already sensed something was wrong, but she’d been unable to break free from suppressing the other Evil Creatures at the time. Just as she’d hesitated over whether to abandon suppressing the other Evil Creatures to rush to Albert’s aid, the Purification Barrier had been successfully activated.So she’d rushed over here the moment she was free.Emily stretched out her slender, jade-like hand and grasped the heavy spear in front of her. Brilliant Radiant Soul Power roared forth—immediately, the spear took on a sacred glow, and flames of light began to blaze

When the Crown Princess saw this scene, she couldn't help but shake her head in exasperation—she had truly witnessed Emily's ferocity firsthand.Clearly, Emily was only at the Colored Soul Body level, yet she showed not the slightest hesitation even in the face of a Minor Catastrophe-level Evil Creature; in fact, her attacks were even more ruthless than the Crown Princess's own.Admittedly, part of the reason was that the Four-Armed Demon-Eyed Serpent had focused most of its attention on the Crown Princess. But there was no denying that Emily's two attacks had inflicted severe weakening and damage on this monstrous beast.This was most likely attributed to Emily's 9-Star Light Element Soul. After all, Radiant Soul Power inherently countered Evil Creatures—let alone a rare 9-Star Light Element Soul.A flurry of thoughts flashed through her mind, but the Crown Princess quickly understood Emily's desire to end the battle quickly. Emily was probably worried that the longer the fight dragg

Thunderclap Mountain was about several hundred li away from Jiangcheng. At their usual speed, Albert and his companions could reach it in just one or two hours. However, Red Sand City was now permeated with evil qi, and evil creatures were scattered everywhere. Though these creatures were no match for Catastrophe-level ones like the Four-Armed Demon-Eyed Serpent that had occupied Jiangcheng, they made up for it in sheer numbers. This forced the three of them to slow down and advance gradually.As a result, by the time they finally reached the area where Thunderclap Mountain was located, it was already the next day.Standing on a hillside, Thunderclap Mountain came into view.The three of them looked out, and soon a look of amazement appeared in each of their eyes.In the distance, amid a range of mountains, a towering peak stood majestically—like a giant towering between heaven and earth. Above the mountain range, dark thunderclouds loomed, and the rumble of thunder roared violently.
