Chapter 982

Shi Zhan Feng seemed to have been prepared for this, and he didn't move. Instead, he flipped a hand over to produce a golden ball, which he tossed upward.

Light surged on the golden ball, and a series of mechanical sounds could be heard. Following that, the golden ball erupted with a ball of golden light, engulfing his body.

The golden light faded in the blink of an eye, and the golden ball disappeared, only to be replaced by a golden cage that was several tens of feet in radius, protecting Shi Zhan Feng within.

The winged puppet flapped its four wings in unison, and a series of white feather-like blades of light shot forth, hurtling toward Shi Zhan Feng like a torrential downpour.

Everywhere the blade of light passed, the entire expanse of space was torn into pieces, and numerous black lines that flashed for a moment appeared.

On the other side, the beast-body puppet had also reached Shi Zhan Feng, and it suddenly tilted its head to the side as a streak of silver lightning surged forth from its mouth.

Lightning and sparks instantly inundated the entire golden cage, and the sound of flying blades clashing and lightning rumbling rang out for a long time.

Han Li stared at the golden cage, and his brows suddenly furrowed.

After the lightning and sparks receded, the golden cage was completely unscathed, and aside from being riddled with scars, it was completely unscathed.

Within the cage, Shi Zhan Feng was completely unscathed, and he was holding a crystal ball with a serious expression on his face. Blood was dripping from the index finger of his other hand, and he was constantly moving his finger across the crystal ball, as if he were trying to dispel the crystal restriction.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly, and he was hesitant about whether he should snatch it from Shi Zhan Feng.

He could also clearly sense that the aura contained in the bright red heart sealed in the crystal ball was not simple. At a glance, he could tell that it was a treasure comparable to the Weeping Blood Formation from before, and it had a significant connection to the corpse of the "Demon Monarch" lying in the crystal coffin.

Even though he wasn't very interested in whether or not Sha Xin would be able to resurrect the Demon Lord, he suspected that this had something to do with Daoist Xie. Furthermore, it would be quite a pity if Shi Zhan Feng were to take this treasure for nothing.

However, if he were to make a move to seize it now, then he would definitely be taken as someone who wanted to reap the benefits without doing anything. Moreover, if Ogre and Sha Xin were to join forces against him, then he wouldn't have any confidence in being able to deal with them, and it was even to the extent that he wouldn't be able to escape.

While Han Li was hesitating, he suddenly noticed that Shi Chuankong, who had been lying motionless on the ground, suddenly moved his shoulders imperceptibly.

He slightly raised his brows and transmitted his voice to Shi Chuankong, "Brother Shi, are you alright?"

Shi Chuankong's shoulders clearly moved again, and Madam Liuhua, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but glance at him. However, she didn't say anything, nor did she do anything. She just looked away again.

After a while, Shi Chuankong's voice came from above Han Li's heart lake.

"Brother Li, I'm fine … Can you … do me a favor?"

"Bear with it for a while longer. When their battle becomes more intense, I'll think of a way to save you." Han Li transmitted his voice to Shi Chuankong.

"No, don't save me first … Please take … take that heart from Shi Zhan Feng's hands. No matter what, you can't let him devour that heart. Otherwise … there will be endless troubles in the future …" Shi Chuankong's voice transmission seemed to be a little intermittent, perhaps due to his severe injuries or the influence of the restriction.

"Brother Shi, what's the use of that heart? Why does Shi Zhan Feng want to take it so much?" Han Li didn't agree immediately. Instead, he frowned and asked.

"I'm not entirely sure about the specific use of the heart, but it's extremely important to Shi Zhan Feng … In fact, it might even be an important treasure that can help him cross the Grand Heavenly Immortal Barrier. Once he devours it and refines it … there's no need for us to return to the Sanctuary …" Shi Chuankong's tone became more and more urgent.

Han Li's heart stirred and just as he was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed.

From within the golden cage, an extremely rich energy of blood and vitality surged out.

Shi ZhanFeng had already broken through the restrictions on the crystal ball and was holding the beating heart in his hands. His eyes were filled with a fervent look.

"Oh no …"

Sha Xin's eyes were filled with anger and her expression became extremely ugly. She wanted to use her clone to take back the heart, but she was also worried that Ewe would snatch the Sage Corpse away. As she hesitated, her control over the puppet slowed down.

"Boom!" A loud sound was heard as Edgar seized the opportunity to appear behind the Vajra Puppet. He waved his arms and punched the Vajra Puppet's lower back like a tidal wave.

Although Sha Xin's thoughts were as fast as lightning, and the Vajra Puppet's head suddenly turned upside down and its eight arms rotated continuously to meet the Vajra Punches, she was still a little too slow.

The eight arms could not defend in time and the thousands of punches landed heavily on the Vajra Puppet's back. The Vajra Puppet, which was already riddled with injuries, suddenly exploded into two from the waist.

"Little Zi" frowned and made hand signs to control the two puppets with all her might. The attacks became more and more violent and the golden cage seemed to be unable to hold on any longer.

However, it was still too late.

"Ants, wait for this prince to complete his Nirvana Rebirth, then I'll crush you all to death …" Shi Zhan said nonchalantly as he brought the heart to his mouth.

He wrinkled his nose and seemed to have smelled a hint of blood.

Right at this moment, the sound of wind and thunder suddenly exploded, and a blurry figure swiftly shot from the other side of the blood lake, bringing with it a gust of wind that directly set off a hundred feet high wave of blood, and formed a hollow passage in the middle of it that trembled violently.

Before Shi Zhan Feng could react, the golden cage that was protecting him exploded into two.

Even the two puppets that were controlled by "Little Zi" were blown away by the strong wind.

Han Li came out from the explosion and punched Shi Zhan Feng's chest with an uppercut.

"Pu …"

A condensed starry white light suddenly gushed out from his chest, directly blasting open a perfectly round bloody hole, and a large amount of dark red blood immediately splashed out like rain.

Shi Zhan Feng's body was also sent flying by the strong force and smashed into the roof.

"Bang!" A loud sound rang out!

The ceiling of the underground space suddenly exploded, and not a single piece of the shattered rocks fell to the ground. They were all blasted out of the ground by the violent shockwave. In the end, only Shi Zhan Feng's body was left, and he fell out of the hole in the ceiling.

Waves of blood splashed in the blood pool and Shi Zhan Feng slowly stood up.

He did not even look at his bloodied chest. Instead, he looked at his empty hands and let out a heart-wrenching roar.

"No …"

On the other side of the Blood Lake, Han Li had already stood still.

He held a beating heart in his hand, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this. Even Sha Xin was taken aback.

Eco did not care about Han Li and Shi Zhan Feng's situation. While Sha Xin was still in a daze, he suddenly turned into a wisp of green smoke and flashed past her.

Sha Xin was shocked and wanted to stop him, but she was too late.

Eco flashed past Sha Xin and appeared beside the crystal coffin in a flash. His eyes were burning as he grabbed the corpse in the coffin with lightning speed.

Right at this moment, a white bone lance suddenly pierced out from the side with an ear-piercing explosion. It struck Eggy's wrist and deflected his wrist once again. It was Kun Yu again.

"You're courting death!"

After being blocked by Kun Yu twice, Eco's eyes flashed coldly. He clenched his palm into a fist and punched Kun Yu's head. His fist let out a thunderous roar.

"Bam!"

The white bone spear was knocked away by the punch and turned into a white shadow that pierced Kun Yu's chest at an unimaginable speed.

Kun Yu did not even have time to react before she was sent flying.

After sending Kun Yu flying with one punch, Eco swung his other hand and grabbed the corpse in the coffin.

At this moment, a blinding golden pillar of light descended from the sky. Wherever it passed, the void fluctuated and let out an ear-piercing shriek. It was aimed at Eco's head.

Eco snorted coldly. He raised his fist that had just knocked Kun Yu away and smashed it towards the golden pillar of light. His hand did not stop moving.

The golden pillar of light collided with Eco's fist and let out a loud boom. Golden light waves exploded in all directions.

Eco's entire body stopped moving and his feet sank half a foot into the ground with a crack. He was shocked.

Before he could adjust his body, a golden tail that was about 40 feet long and as thick as a millstone lashed out from the light waves and hit Eco's body with lightning speed.

"Bang!" A loud sound was heard, and Elly's entire body was sent flying.

The golden light in the air dissipated and a golden dragon-shaped puppet that was 200 to 300 feet in length appeared in the air.

Its head was shining with golden light as if it was made of pure gold. There was a pair of coral-shaped dragon horns on its head and its body was covered in dense golden scales. It had a long and powerful dragon tail and thick and ferocious dragon claws. Everything about this puppet exuded a powerful might.

Dazzling golden light flashed beside the crystal coffin. Then, a giant golden tiger, a giant golden turtle, a giant golden bird, and three puppets appeared.

These three puppets were not inferior to the golden dragon puppet in terms of appearance and might. Moreover, the auras exuded by these four puppets were interconnected and indistinguishable.

Sha Xin flew and landed on the back of the giant golden bird. Then, crystal threads shot out from her ten fingers and sank into the bodies of the four puppets.

Although the wounds on her body had disappeared, her complexion was extremely pale. There was also a trail of blood flowing down from the corner of her mouth. It was a very eye-catching sight.

Eco was sent flying over a thousand feet away. However, he straightened his body and stood firm as if nothing had happened.

Sha Xin moved her ten fingers and the four puppets immediately flew out. They lined up side by side between Eco and the crystal coffin.

"The Big Dipper Four Elephants War Puppet is indeed extraordinary. If Lord Sha was not injured, I would be afraid of you. However, now that you are seriously injured, your control technique has been greatly affected. How much power can the Four Elephants War Puppet exert?" Eco sneered. He did not seem to care at all.

As his voice fell, his figure blurred and he pounced forward again.
