Chapter 506: The Demise of Lu Heng (Part II)
The resounding roar of the furious woman in red reverberated through the eerie depths of the mysterious purplish nether sea.
However, the soul of the man in white did indeed dissipate.
The essence that emerged after the dissipation of that soul is gradually dispersing within the expanse of Mandala flowers.
The woman in red took a step forward, transcending the boundaries of space and time, and instantly arrived in the midst of that enchanting azure sea of Mandala flowers.
The wailing and howling, emanating from the sorrowful and malevolent netherworld spirits, had long since dissipated and receded into the depths below.
Within the current expanse of Mandala flowers, only the silent figure of the woman in red stands still.
She lowered her head, gazing at the profound and yellow seal within the sea of flowers, her expression icy cold.
Beside this profound and yellow seal, there is the dissipating aura of Lu Heng's soul.
As a practitioner of the Ethereal Sky lineage, she possessed an unparalleled familiarity with the essence of souls, allowing her to discern with clarity that this was indeed the lingering spiritual aura left behind by a top-tier cultivator who had taken their own life.
The white-clad man's suicide was so decisive and thorough that it caused his soul to completely dissipate, instead of self-exploding, leaving no trace of even the slightest fragment of his spirit.
This implies that once this cluster of spiritual essence dissipates completely, the opposing party will no longer be able to revive.
Upon thinking about this, the woman in red couldn't help but feel a sense of panic, hastily reaching out to grasp the nearly extinguished cluster of spiritual essence, attempting to trap the lingering soul within.
"No! You cannot perish so easily!" the woman in red shouted in anger. "I have not yet tormented your soul, shattered your will, nor have I taken the lives of your loved ones right before your eyes. You are not allowed to die!"
"Lu Heng! I forbid you to die!"
The woman in red, consumed by furious madness, desperately condensed her true qi as if driven to insanity, attempting to salvage this cluster of souls.
However, the white-clad man's method of self-destruction was too thorough, even she couldn't keep hold of this cluster of spiritual essence.
Even though she diligently guarded the spiritual essence, she could only helplessly watch as it gradually dissipated in her hands, completely unable to prevent it.
The gaze of the woman in red, filled with madness.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!!!!"
Angrily piercing roars resonated within the depths of the nether sea, as the woman in red, who had finally exacted her revenge, spiraled into madness.
She, as if possessed by madness, ruthlessly obliterated everything in her sight that could be destroyed.
The Mandala flowers, the eerie traces of ghosts beneath the sea of flowers, the scattered profound yellow seals within the floral expanse, and even the dissipating essence of the soul... Everything that appeared before her eyes was relentlessly destroyed by her frenzied actions.
This world, created and forged by her, continuously bursts open with a resounding explosion, only to reassemble around her once more.
The terrifying process of that world shattering and restructuring is enough to extinguish all traces of spiritual essence.
In the end, even this nether sea, completely carved out by her, could not withstand the frenzy of the woman in red's unleashed wrath, ultimately crumbling into complete destruction.
Within the tumultuous currents of disrupted spacetime, the figure of the woman in red stands aloof with an air of indifference.
Simultaneously standing beside her are the young girl with silver hair and animal-like ears, as well as the square profound yellow seal of the netherworld.
With a single seal from these two individuals, it becomes the sole remaining entity amidst the chaotic deluge of loss of control.
The entire nether sea was destroyed by the maddened woman in red.
In the disrupted spacetime currents after the destruction of the nether sea, no fragments of the soul belonging to the white-clad man, Lu Heng, were able to be found.
That formidable enemy who, at the mere thought of him, drives the woman in red to the brink of madness, truly perished with a sense of finality, exhibiting no attachment to the mortal world, and departing with such utter purity.
This time, even the possibility of a revival was out of reach.
In the chaotic currents of spacetime, the countenance of the woman in red remained indifferent and numb.
She, who had achieved vengeance, didn't experience the anticipated delight.
She turned around to gaze at the young girl with silver hair and animal ears, witnessing in the depths of her eyes the agonizing sorrow and profound hatred that pierced the very soul.
In an ethereal moment, she seemed to catch a glimpse of her former self.
That pitiable creature who had returned home with her lover, only to have all her kinsmen slaughtered by him, standing bewildered amidst the corpses of her people...
The gaze of the woman in red turned icy, as she raised her hand to extinguish the life of the young girl before her.
However, at the very moment her hand was lifted, a profound weariness surged within her.
Lu Heng is already dead, so what purpose does it serve to kill this disciple of Lu Heng?
These wretched beings from the mortal realm are nothing more than insignificant creatures. No matter how many are killed, it will not bring her any satisfaction.
Furthermore, since Lu Heng has already passed away, there is no longer any purpose for her to stay in this place.
Having cast a cold glance at the young girl with silver hair and beastly ears, the woman in red withdrew her hand, showing complete indifference. She directly flew out and stepped into the chaotic time stream, arriving in the outer realm of Cangwu Abyss.
In the present state of Cangwu Abyss, not a trace of seawater can be seen.
After the destruction of the nether sea, Cangwu Abyss reverted to its original form, where the dry and rugged earth unfolded within the ravine, emanating an unsettling aura of gloom.
Inside the desolate nether sea, not even the remains of Lu Heng can be found. After all, at the very moment his soul scattered, even his physical body would have dissolved.
This is quite normal.
The woman in red ascended to the sky with an expressionless face, watching as Cangwu Abyss gradually diminished in her sight, while the entirety of the Celestial Desolation Realm unfolded beneath her feet.
In the far-off North Sea, it seems that a tremendously fierce battle has taken place. Even from a great distance, she could still sense that chilling aura that made one's hair stand on end.
It appears that the monkey disciple from Hanyu Mountain has successfully fallen into demonic possession. Otherwise, such a formidable presence that forces her to take notice would not have emerged.
However, it doesn't matter anymore.
With the understanding that Lu Heng has already perished, there is no longer any allure left in this realm of countless worlds.
The sentence inside the translates to: Now, all she desires is to return to Heaven beyond Heaven and share this news with everyone.
It would be best to let that despicable Shen Yuanjun know, right in her presence, that Lu Heng has already passed away.
The expression on that despicable person's face will certainly be quite spectacular... Hahaha...
With these thoughts in mind, a trace of delight finally arose within the heart of the woman in red.
She swiftly soared out, transforming into a brilliant radiance, disappearing at the end of the Celestial Desolation Realm.
Departed.
Even the thirty-six peach fruits left behind by the deceased Lu Heng were disregarded and abandoned.
Nowadays, all she desires is to swiftly return to Heaven beyond Heaven, locate that detestable individual, and deliver the news of Lu Heng's demise to that wretched individual!
As for the rest, she doesn't care!
Within the Cangwu Abyss, the figure of the woman in red vanished with such swiftness, in an instant departing from this world.
The world barrier of the World of Eight Desolations, along with the monstrous creatures beyond the Celestial Desolation Realm, she disregarded entirely, effortlessly breaking free.
Meanwhile, deep within the earth, a colossal white wolf lifted its head, silently gazing at the departing figure of the woman in red.
Until the other party completely vanished from this realm, the Heavenly Thunder Sword by his side remained untouched.
The risk of feigning death is still considerable.
Upon witnessing Xiao Ai's unscathed figure emerge outside the Cangwu Abyss, carrying the Requiem Seal, Lu Heng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The enigmatic and inexplicable nature of this woman in red makes it extremely difficult, given his methods, to reclaim Xiao Ai's soul within the opponent's realm, the nether sea. Undoubtedly, it would come at a tremendous cost.
However, little did he expect that his feigned-showing of weakness and planned stealth attack strategy would provoke this woman, causing her to simply depart.
Deep within the earth, the white wolf gazed complexly in the direction where the woman in red had vanished, his emotions inexplicably stirred.
The magnitude of his death's impact on the woman was far beyond his anticipation.
It seems that the karmic entanglement that occurred over sixty million years ago was indeed not a fabrication casually devised by the woman in red.
