Supreme Emptiness Chapter 648

Chapter 648: Chapter 648: Cutting Hairpin

Jiang Fan's scalp went numb!

This was a terrifying existence even the Demon Emperor couldn't handle.

How could someone in the Core Formation Realm easily shake it off?

Without thinking, he decisively formed seals, striking the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain in his palm.

“Five Magnetic Divine Light!”

A five-colored light screen instantly enveloped a range of three zhang.

But what made Jiang Fan's pupils shrink was this.

The blood skirt was completely unaffected, piercing through the light barrier, instantly wrapping around Jiang Fan's waist.

A piercing pain immediately came through.

It seemed the blood skirt had bitten through his skin, seeking to devour his flesh.

And that wasn't all.

The blood skirt, gaining the advantage, draped over him entirely.

Just like it devoured Yuan Liping, it wanted to shroud him completely.

Jiang Fan's face changed drastically.

“Soul-shocking Stab!”

A soul-nailing poke suddenly surged out, stabbing into the blood skirt.

What shocked Jiang Fan was this.

The blood skirt did not pause even a second.

It instantly enveloped Jiang Fan!

Both of his proudest techniques were entirely ignored by the blood skirt!

In this critical moment.

Jiang Fan shouted: “Void Flow Thunder Force!”

The vast thunderpower inside him surged at once, forming a net of thunder that protected his entire body.

Crackle–

The blood skirt was immediately electrocuted, steaming large amounts of blood mist.

The force wrapping around Jiang Fan relaxed for a moment.

This entity, neither spirit nor not, dreaded the power of thunder most.

But only for an instant did it loosen, then it wrapped around Jiang Fan again, seemingly enraged.

Jiang Fan seized that brief looseness.

He grabbed the purple stone.

Enduring severe pain all over and before being fully consumed, he shouted.

And pressed the stone into the formation's eye!

Thud, thud–

The ancient array immediately started operating.

All the inscriptions on the walls flickered with uncertain light.

The blood in the underground blood pool instantly dried up, the ground around the copper coffin rapidly rising.

Soon, it would seal this underground area once again.

The blood skirt sensed something.

With a shrill scream, it decisively abandoned Jiang Fan, transforming into a shadow and slipped into the copper coffin.

And coiled around the coffin lid, covering itself again.

Jiang Fan managed to escape with his life.

Looking down.

His skin bore countless fine cuts, with blood gushing out like rain.

A massive sensation of weakness followed.

Just from being entwined momentarily, Jiang Fan lost at least ten percent of his essence blood.

He couldn't imagine what would have happened if the blood skirt had two more breaths of time.

He was overcome with lingering fear.

Since his cultivation began, that instant was his closest brush with death.

Without parallel!

He looked with deep apprehension towards the gradually closing copper coffin.

Unexpectedly, he discovered, inside the coffin, a broken ancient copper hairpin.

The blood skirt wrapped around it, lying quietly.

Was this also a relic of that great sage?

And very dear to the blood skirt?

Considering he almost got turned into a dry corpse by the blood skirt.

He cast another glance at the rising ground.

His eyes flashed with brilliance as he coldly snorted, “Do you think you can have a free meal of my flesh?”

“Pay up honestly!”

Just as the copper coffin was about to close.

Jiang Fan decisively shot out the Heavenly Mountain Silk.

It immediately wrapped around half of the hairpin, pulling it out.

Boom–

The copper coffin closed.

The blood shirt within noticed only then, letting out a long shriek.

The just-closed coffin lid was shaken off again.

The blood skirt turned into a shadow, speeding towards him.

But in that moment.

The earth fully rose, forever sealing off the underground.

Boom, boom, boom–

Immediately the ground below started to tremble violently.

No need to guess, it was clear that the blood skirt was madly crashing against the ground underground, attempting to break free.

Jiang Fan's action had thoroughly enraged it.

But as the sealing operated, the crashing noise grew weaker, finally fading completely.

Sigh–

Jiang Fan weakly slumped to the ground.

His face was pale and bloodless, his entire body trembling from fatigue.

He hurriedly took out a Revitalizing Pill and popped it into his mouth.

This could only heal the wounds he bit open, reducing the pain somewhat.

The lost essential blood and flesh could not be replenished in a short time.

“Almost got defeated,” Jiang Fan managed a bitter smile.

Nonetheless.

He didn't come away entirely empty-handed.

This copper hairpin, the blood skirt was obviously guarding it.

This artifact must be a hairpin carried by a great sage, remaining intact after millennia, clearly not an ordinary object.

Just as he intended to take it out for closer examination.

Hai Mei hurried over.

Finding Jiang Fan's face pale and so weakened that he couldn't stand steadily.

Hai Mei was startled.

She hurriedly knelt before Jiang Fan, checking his injuries.

“No problem, just lost some blood and flesh,”

“After some recovery, it'll be fine.”

Jiang Fan waved his hand, indicating it wasn't serious.

Hai Mei slightly exhaled in relief.

With a hint of reproach in her voice, she said, “Master, don't do that again.”

“I am not worth risking your life for.”

To risk life for a slave.

Under heaven, only Jiang Fan could be this foolish.

“You shall not escape!”

At this moment.

A tender rebuke came from the exit aboveground.

The two turned their gaze.

Only to find Wang Chongxiao trying to sneak away amid the chaos, but he was stopped by Ling Shu.

However.

Wang Chongxiao hadn't taken any harm within the blood pool, his battle power remained at its peak.

After a few moves, he hit Ling Shu's shoulder guard with a palm strike, forcing her back unsteadily.

He seized the chance to flee.

“Hai Mei! Kill him!” Jiang Fan's gaze turned cold.

Having already attacked disciples of the Great Yin Sect.

How could he not root out every possibility and eliminate future troubles?

Not needing Jiang Fan's command, Hai Mei was already on the move.

She stepped forward.

The next instant.

The ground before Wang Chongxiao suddenly turned into a field of ice and snow.

The ice and snow condensed, forming an image of Hai Mei.

Her face was slightly cold, and she said, “You deserve to die!”

This man almost caused Jiang Fan's death!

Wang Chongxiao's complexion changed.

This was an opponent of the Ninth Layer Perfection in the Core Formation Realm.

How could he handle that?

He sheepishly said, “Brother Lu, a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!”

“It's all Junior Sister Yuan blinded by greed, wanting to keep the treasure to herself, forced me to conspire to harm you.”

Ha!

Truly shameless!

Yuan Liping had been betrayed into becoming a withered corpse by him.

Now he's shifting all the blame onto her.

Jiang Fan said indifferently, “Is there any use saying this?”

“Today, you're not getting away.”

With things reaching this degree, only killing and silence could resolve it.

Hai Mei's icy eyes flickered, a murderous intent rising in them.

Wang Chongxiao's heart filled with urgency, he pleaded, “Brother Lu, don't do it! Don't do it!”

“I recognize my mistake.”

“I will share a profitable intelligence to compensate you.”

Jiang Fan's eyes flickered.

He hesitated for a moment, saying, “You better make sure this intelligence can save your life.”

Wang Chongxiao exhaled slightly in relief, saying:

“Brother Lu, are you aware this mountain range called Qingshan harbors a special kind of demon race?”

Jiang Fan asked doubtfully, “Are you talking about the Silver Fox Clan?”

Wang Chongxiao surprisingly said, “So Brother Lu knows there is a Silver Fox Clan here?”

“Could it be you're here for them too?”

Hmm?

Jiang Fan frowned and said, “Explain clearly!”

Wang Chongxiao hesitated and then asked, “Brother Lu, aren't you tempted by the Silver Fox Clan?”

“They are a rare commodity!”

“Handsome men and beautiful women, top-tier slaves, they're highly sought after on the black market.”

Jiang Fan frowned even deeper.

He had previously harbored a doubt.

Why was there no trace of the Silver Fox Clan guarding the Secret Realm?

Now.

The answer was revealed.
