<h4>Chapter 265: Dark Blue me!</h4>


    The sudden change of events stunned everyone for a moment.


    No one had expected that the undying blood phoenix would die the moment it was rescued.


    At this moment, Ren Qi looked down at the fallen undying blood phoenix and saw a shocking scene.


    Pale white bones emerged from the heavily injured undying blood phoenix’s body and pierced through it in an instant.


    After the undying blood phoenix fell to the ground, a pale-white creature with bones all over its body quickly emerged from its body and sank into the ground.


    Zhao Yuheng’s expression became extremely ugly.


    This half-step Saint-tier undying blood phoenix had still died here.


    Although this half-step Saint-tier undying blood phoenix had just advanced from the ninth tier with a Fire Holy Stone, its strength was definitely not weak.


    However, after being grabbed by that pale-whiterge hand, something like this had happened.


    “What is that thing? Isn’t it a little too terrifying?”


    “F*ck! Bones? What is that thing?”


    “I thought that there wouldn’t be any strange things after passing through that lost zone. I didn’t expect that there would be such a thing.”


    Tian Jizi and the others’ expressions turned ugly when they saw this scene.


    Even a half-step Saint-tier undying blood phoenix had fallen into such a situation. If it was one of their troops, their ending wouldn’t be any better.


    Ren Qi frowned when he saw this.


    Then, Ren Qi looked at the Elemental Elf Queen and asked, “What was that thing just now? Could it be a corpse limb?”


    The Elemental Elf Queen nodded solemnly and said, “It’s a type of corpse limb user that uses bones as its main means of attack. I didn’t expect it to actually burrow into the undying blood phoenix’s stomach.”


    “It seems that there are still quite a number of corpse limbs below the ground.”


    After the Elemental Elf Queen finished speaking, she looked at the expressions of Zhao Yuheng and the others beside her and said directly, “Everyone, don’t feel too much pressure.”


    “The abilities of these corpse limbs might be a little strange, but they aren’t very strong. We just need to be careful.”


    “Moreover, there aren’t many corpse limbs. Usually, they hunt alone. This kind of corpse limb packs are quite rare.”


    “We just need to pass through here quickly. The main enemy is still the surrounding tarnished.”


    Hearing the Elemental Elf Queen’s words, the expressions of the people around her turned for the better.


    The team continued to charge forward. The number of tarnished around them also increased, causing the team to move slower and slower.


    The dark divine dragon at the front of the team immediately said, “Use all your strength and charge forward quickly. If we are surrounded by the tarnished, we will be in big trouble.”


    Although they did not know what big trouble the dark divine dragon was talking about, Ren Qi and the others also ordered their respective troops to increase their speed and charge forward.


    Elise charged forward directly. Arge number of hellfire appeared in the surroundings. Following Elise’s will, they followed a specific trajectory and descended.


    As therge number of hellfire descended, they formed two long fire passages on the ground below.


    Both sides of the passage were filled with pitch-ck hellfire.


    The soldiers quickly charged out along the middle passage. When the surrounding tarnished charged over, they would lose most of theirbat strength if they were enveloped by the pitch-ck hellfire.


    At this moment, there were more and more tarnished around them. The types of tarnished were not limited to the tarnished lion and the tarnished elemental elf that were enveloped by the ck mes. Other tarnished began to appear.


    Arge number of pitch-ck tarnished appeared on all sides of the team, directly surrounding the entire team.


    Right now, the entire team seemed to be in a sea of tarnished as they continued to advance with all their might. This was especially so on the right side. The attacks of the tarnished were very strong, and they were almost unable to hold on any longer.


    Seeing this, the Dark Elf Queen also rushed forward with a frown.


    Arriving at the right side of the team, the Dark Elf Queen directly opened her arms. Rays of ck light spread from the Dark Elf Queen’s body and quicklynded on the right side of the ground.


    Numerous pitch-ck nts began to crazily surge out from the ground and swiftly wrapped around the tarnished beside her.


    The pitch-ck ntstched onto the tarnished and began to tighten their restraints.


    The tarnished, who were wrapped in the pitch-ck nts, were strangled until their limbs were broken and they died.


    With the help of the Elemental Elf Queen, the pressure on the right side of the team instantly decreased by a lot.


    At this moment, the Elemental Elf Queen also quickly rushed out and directly arrived in front of the team.


    Then, the Elemental Elf Queen raised the magic staff in her hand.


    A seven-colored light began to emerge from the magic staff in the Elemental Elf Queen’s hand. Then, it quickly rushed toward the tarnished in front of them.


    A light wave formed by a huge seven-colored light instantly cleared therge number of tarnished in front of them.


    The opponents of the team were cleared in an instant. The entire army of the team began to move forward quickly.


    Very quickly, the entire team passed through the area in front of them and quickly approached the position of the next sealing gate.


    The dark divine dragon at the front of the team continued to attack the surrounding tarnished, trying his best to tear a hole in the front.


    If only the Dark Divine Dragon n passed through this area, it would not be so troublesome.


    They would quickly pass through this area in the air and reach the position of the next sealing gate.


    However, now that they had brought so many troops, Long Yi still felt a little pressured.


    However, Ren Qi and the others would be of great use once they entered the sealed area. Therefore, Long Yi would not give up on them.


    Although there were a lot of tarnished surrounding them, the ones with the highestbat strength were only at Tier 9. To Ren Qi and the others, they were not too much of a threat.


    Soon, a faint light appeared in front of Ren Qi and the rest.


    It was a faint blue light, emanating from a huge ball of blue mes, illuminating the surroundings.


    Looking at the huge ball of blue mes, Ren Qi and the rest stiffened.


    From the blue mes, they could feel a huge pulling force on their souls.


    This pulling force acted on their bodies, causing them to feel as though their souls were being torn apart by something. It was extremely ufortable.


    Fortunately, this feeling only appeared for a moment. Soon after, they quickly recovered their calm.


    “Quickly enter the dark blue region in front. Once we reach there, the tarnished will no longer dare to approach.” Long Yi pointed at the dark blue region in front of them and shouted.


    The speed of the entire group once again increased after Long Yi’s voice sounded. They swiftly headed toward the dark blue region in front of them.


    At this moment, Ren Qi’s eyes alsonded on the dark blue region in front of them.


    It was obvious that the tarnished in front of them did not dare to approach the dark blue region.


    It was as though there was something in the dark blue region that they were afraid of.


    As long as it was illuminated by the dark blue light, there would be no tarnished.


    The ck flood dragon, the ck turtle, and the knight who were devouring the tarnished all shut their mouths. There were too many tarnished around them, and they could no longer eat.


    Moreover, if they continued to eat, they would enter a deep sleep and digest, which would reduce theirbat strength by a lot. Therefore, they only brought a few corpses of the tarnished with them.


    After charging past the tarnished, Long Yi and the others had already arrived at the dark blue area. They began to turn around and help Ren Qi and the others enter.


    The surrounding tarnished became even crazier, as if they knew that if Ren Qi and the others entered the dark blue area, they would have no other choice.


    Following the frenzied assault of the tarnished, Ren Qi and the others suffered some losses. Xuan Ming’s Tier-9 mechs were torn apart by the tarnished, and a few of them were destroyed.


    The ck flood dragons and the dark dragons also suffered some injuries.


    It was still difficult to deal with the tarnished flying in the air.


    If it wasn’t for therge number of Tier-9 undying blood phoenixes, Ren Qi’s aerial domain probably wouldn’t have been able to withstand it.


    However, Ren Qi and the others still managed to enter the area illuminated by the faint blue light without any danger.


    After entering this area, one could clearly see that therge number of tarnished behind them had stopped outside the area illuminated by the faint blue light, as if they were blocked by something.


    Soon after, therge number of tarnished slowly retreated, as if they did not dare to invade the area in front of them that was illuminated by the dark blue light.


    Ren Qi and the others looked at each other and saw the shock in each other’s eyes.


    “Let’s go. We are about to reach the second sealing gate,” Long Yi said as he looked at Ren Qi. After which, he took the lead and headed inside.


    Ren Qi and the others followed suit. The first gate’s tarnished had given them a lot of pressure just now. Now that they had finally arrived at a safe spot, they heaved a sigh of relief.


    Ren Qi and the others continued to follow Long Yi. Soon, they saw the second huge gate that stood between heaven and earth!


    This gate seemed to be much bigger than the first one. It was covered in bronze and looked very ancient.


    A thick and heavy aura came directly from the gate, causing Ren Qi’s emotions to waver.


    Following that, Ren Qi’s gaze fell on a bunch of mes in front of the gate.


    A faint blue me!


    It was the huge faint blue me they had seen just now.


    Compared to the huge gate behind them, this huge faint blue me seemed a little small. However, it was nearly twenty meters tall and was burning fiercely. The light reflected a very far distance.


    The light reflected by this me caused the tarnished to not dare to approach this ce.


    In other words, the tarnished were afraid of this blue me!


    Ren Qi’s gazended on the blue me in front of him. Zhao Yuheng and the others behind him also shifted their gazes to the blue me in front of them. After all, it was this me that had forced the tarnished to retreat earlier.


    The instant Ren Qi’s gazended on the blue me, he felt that something was amiss.


    An enormous soul-pulling force, which was the same as before, was suddenly transmitted over. This caused Ren Qi’s expression to instantly waver.


    Soon after, Ren Qi felt that his mind was a little dazed. He could not help but want to approach the faint blue me.


    However, at this moment, a warm current surged in Ren Qi’s mind, and he restrained this impulse.


    Ren Qi shook his head, allowing his somewhat dizzy head to calm down.


    Looking at the faint blue me in front of him, Ren Qi’s eyes were filled with astonishment.


    This faint blue me could actually produce a pulling force on the soul. If one’s willpower was not firm, one’s soul might be directly pulled into the faint blue me in front of them.


    Just now, Ren Qi could not help but want to approach that faint blue me. It was not his body that wanted to approach it, but his soul that wanted to approach it!


    It was as if his soul power wanted to throw itself into this faint blue me and burn himself.


    Recalling the feeling of being possessed just now, Ren Qi felt a lingering fear in his heart.


    However, soon after, Ren Qi realized that he was able to resist that soul-pulling force just now. This meant that his soul power had been greatly strengthened.


    This should be the result of the strengthening of his soul strength after he had passed through the lost zone.


    At this moment, Ren Qi noticed that Zhao Yuheng and the others beside him had be dazed.


    Everyone’s eyesnded on the faint blue me in front of them. They stared intently as though they wanted to sink into it.


    Ren Qi was just about to wake them up when he was interrupted by Long Yi.


    “Let’s wait for a while first. If they are like you and manage to break free by themselves, their soul strength will be further strengthened.”


    Ren Qi hesitated for a moment when he heard Long Yi’s words.


    Long Yi continued to say when he saw Ren Qi’s expression, “Don’t worry. They will not be in any danger for a short period of time.”


    Ren Qi finally nodded and waited quietly by the side.


    To Ren Qi’s surprise, the first person to have the attribute wasn’t Zhao Yuheng, but Li Tian.


    Li Tian was the first to wake up. The lost look in her eyes disappeared, and she became determined.


    Looking at Ren Qi and the others, Li Tian was stunned.


    She could clearly feel that her perception seemed to have increased a little.


    However, when she remembered that her soul seemed to be about to leave, there was still some lingering fear in Li Tian’s eyes.


    Ren Qi repeated Long Yi’s words to Li Tian. Li Tian nodded and was about to say something when Zhao Yuheng woke up.


    Like Li Tian, Zhao Yuheng was stunned for a moment before shepletely woke up.


    After about ten minutes, Luo Ming and the others woke up one after another.


    In the end, only Tian Jizi and one of Yang Mei’s rangers were still in daze.


    Long Yi looked at them and then said to Ren Qi, “They won’t be able to wake up on their own. We can wake them up. Do you want to do it or should I?”


    Ren Qi looked at Long Yi’s raised tail and hurriedly said, “I won’t trouble Senior Long Yi. I’ll do it.”


    As he spoke, Ren Qi came to Tian Jizi and raised his hand.
