Shen Qing spiraled upwards and reached the huge black claw.
She placed her hand on her forehead, closed her eyes, and endured the excruciating pain of her soul being torn apart. She forcefully detached the jade pendant that was bound to her from her spiritual consciousness.
All the items in the space, along with the divine temple, were sealed within the jade pendant, which Shen Qing held in her hand.
Just doing this alone made Shen Qing break out in a cold sweat.
She let go of her hand, and the jade pendant slowly drifted down. It leisurely made its way to Ling Zhou, who was fighting side - by - side with True Lord Honghua.
Ling Zhou recognized the jade pendant at a glance. He was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Shen Qing in front of the black claw. A sense of foreboding suddenly welled up in his heart.
Shen Qing had the dragon bone, the protective power of the dragon clan, and Luo Ling's ability to make words turn into reality. These were already sufficient to mend the loosening formation that sealed the Demon God.
Shen Qing gathered all these powers at her heart, and her body began to glow.
Han Ze glanced sideways and immediately realized that his sister was going to sacrifice herself to seal the Demon God. His eyes tightened, and he quickly slipped under the White Dragon and rushed towards Shen Qing.
The White Dragon reacted and quickly shouted, "Han Ze is going to stop Shen Qing from sealing the Demon God! Shoot him down quickly!"
The Golden Dragon transformed his spiritual power into golden swords and shot them into Han Ze's flesh. But Han Ze seemed oblivious to the pain and kept moving forward.
The Fire Dragon's fire - evading technique also hit Han Ze hard. His flesh was torn open and turned charred, but Han Ze only frowned.
The Green Dragon was quite surprised. "Is he crazy? He won't stop even like this."
The White Dragon said in a deep voice, "The Demon God is his trump card. If the Demon God is successfully sealed by Shen Qing, according to the current situation, he will have no way to turn the tide. All his efforts over tens of thousands of years will be in vain. He won't be willing to accept that."
After thinking about it, the others realized it made sense, so they rushed towards Shen Qing even more quickly.
Shen Qing saw Han Ze running towards her. She pushed Wu Wang, who was reluctant to leave her side, away and then set up a barrier.
Wu Wang rammed into the barrier forcefully, trying to take Shen Qing away.
"Shen Qing, you'll die!"
Looking at the Demon God, whose shoulders were already exposed, Shen Qing's conviction grew stronger. "Wu Wang, I beg you for one thing. Please go to Li Xian's side and stop him from coming to me."
"No! Damn it! Shen Qing, don't be so stubborn. There must be other ways!"
Wu Wang refused to leave and continued to ram into the barrier forcefully.
Li Xian looked up and saw Wu Wang's abnormal behavior. He immediately knew what Shen Qing was planning.
A sharp pain welled up in his heart. He picked up his sword recklessly and beheaded the temple guards around him.
He rushed towards Shen Qing quickly, but saw the black aura around Han Ze hurtling towards Shen Qing like lightning. Li Xian gritted his teeth, changed his direction, and charged towards the black aura.
Thanks to Li Xian's obstruction, Han Ze's steps towards Shen Qing stopped, and the four dragons finally caught up.
"Yin and yang correspond, the universe lends its power, the five elements generate each other. Let the wandering souls return to their positions and bind your divine form!"
They all began to chant the incantation in unison. Black - and - white chains extended from their bodies and instantly bound Han Ze's hands and feet.
Han Ze struggled desperately. The black aura corroded the chains, but the chains were not affected at all. A look of panic finally appeared in Han Ze's eyes. He used his ice spell to try to freeze the chains, but it was still of no use.
"Ah! Let me go! Shen Qing must not be allowed to seal the Demon God!!"
Han Ze let out a roar and anxiously looked towards Shen Qing.
Finally, when he saw Li Xian, his voice was urgent but also carried a hint of temptation. "Li Xian, you should have seen it, right? Shen Qing wants to seal the Demon God. If she succeeds, she will perish. This is the price of sealing the Demon God!"
"Let them let me go. Let me stop Shen Qing. Let me stop her, ah!!"
Han Ze's crazy shouts echoed over Kunlun Mountain. By this time, most of the temple guards in the main temple had been killed, and the demonic beasts had been purified by the spiritual herbs. Most of them had regained their senses.
So, quite a number of people had noticed what was happening in the air.
Personally, they surely hoped that Shen Qing would succeed and prevent the Demon God from descending into the world.
As the saying goes, when a whale dies, all things thrive. They thought it was worth sacrificing one person to ensure the safety of the Nine Desolate Continent.
But Hong Chaoyang, Qing Qing and the others hoped that Li Xian could stop Shen Qing. They didn't want Shen Qing's sacrifice to buy them peace.
"Mother, let's go quickly and ask the sect master if there are other ways!"
Hong Chaoyang tugged at True Lord Hong Die and wanted to look for True Lord Honghua.
But True Lord Hong Die, with sorrow in her eyes, stopped Hong Chaoyang. "Chaoyang, listen to mother..."
"I don't want to listen. There must be other ways. Shen Qing has already suffered enough. She can't sacrifice herself. If someone must sacrifice themselves to the formation, then replace me!"
Hearing Hong Chaoyang's words, True Lord Hong Die was greatly shocked. Her pupils trembled slightly, and finally she gritted her teeth. "Let's go find the sect master!"
"Okay!"
The people from the Green Wood Sect and the Beast - Taming Sect also began to discuss whether there were other ways to seal the Demon God.
Especially Qing Qing and Chu Lanqiu. As the people with a say in their respective sects, they took out the most precious treasures of their sects and asked various powerful cultivators if they had other methods.
But in the end, all they got were the powerful cultivators shaking their heads.
Xian Shiyu covered her mouth and shed silent tears. She looked up and stared intently at Shen Qing.
Not only Xian Shiyu, but also the cultivators on the scene were silently looking at Shen Qing, praying for her in their hearts.
Shen Qing looked at Li Xian's back through the barrier, as if she was engraving Li Xian's figure deeply in her mind.
Li Xian clenched his fists tightly and didn't dare to turn back to look in Shen Qing's direction.
Shen Qing knew that Li Xian was trying his best to endure. She also understood that this was Li Xian's trust in her. She had said that she would surely protect her own life, and Li Xian believed her.
So, she would never let Li Xian's trust down!
All of Shen Qing's strength was concentrated in her chest. She could no longer maintain the dragon form and returned to her human form.
"Li Xian... I will surely protect my own life..."
After saying that, Shen Qing took a deep breath.
"With the blood of the dragon clan, I pray to the gods of the upper Nine States. The world is in chaos, and the Demon God has appeared. My heart is filled with grief. For the great path of all living beings, I am willing to sacrifice myself to the formation and seal the Demon God."
"O souls of the ancestors of the dragon clan, please help me and protect all living beings."
Shen Qing's voice echoed between heaven and earth through the barrier. Everyone was deeply affected by the passionate voice when Shen Qing chanted the incantation.
Deep in the abyss, the souls of the dragon clan, who had been tortured for tens of thousands of years, seemed to have heard Shen Qing's call. They broke through the seal that had imprisoned them for many years, left the abyss, and came in front of Shen Qing.
