Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon!

Sizzle!

After the thousand-hand centipede finished its cultivation, it turned its gaze towards Han Ruyan.

Su Jie understood its intention and said to Han Ruyan and the thousand-hand centipede: "Remember, don't lose your heads, you two."

"Little bug, come on."

Han Ruyan gracefully descended from the tree, her blood-colored wedding dress fluttering as if moved by the wind.

The thousand-hand centipede roared, swinging its pale corpse hands as it charged towards Han Ruyan, causing the earth to shake and leaving large, deep pits in its wake.

Han Ruyan's hair fluttered, and she slowly extended her left hand, her jade fingers pointing lightly.

A black line appeared in the void, with endless killing intent spreading from it. In an instant, the black line rapidly split into strands of black hair, forming a web of slaughter that could cut through everything.

The ground was immediately cut into neat, tofu-like grid patterns.

The body of the thousand-hand centipede sparked with electricity, but the black hair that could slice the earth couldn't penetrate more than a foot into its insect shell scale armor, causing no harm to its massive body.

"So hard!"

Han Ruyan's brow furrowed slightly, this defense exceeded her expectations.

The thousand-hand centipede became excited, rushing towards Han Ruyan with a roaring wind, its blood-red mouth snapping down.

Han Ruyan's figure turned into an ephemeral foam, disappearing from the spot.

The thousand-hand centipede bit into empty space, and the next moment, its bone-like face split open, hundreds of purple light rays shooting out like a meteor shower towards the sky dome.

In the sky, Han Ruyan's figure had just appeared when the purple light rays nearly simultaneously arrived.

Han Ruyan's expression remained unchanged, her blood-colored wedding dress swirling. The purple light rays, capable of piercing the physical body of a Dao Platform Realm cultivator, deflected, shooting towards the distant forest.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The distant forest was shattered with countless holes, as if carpet-bombed by a heavy artillery regiment, leaving scorched earth and deep pits.

Han Ruyan's gaze fixed on the thousand-hand centipede roaring to the sky, a black moon slowly rising behind her, hanging in the sky, ready to fight seriously.

The thousand-hand centipede showed no sign of retreat, as the thorny crown on its head burst with bright radiance, and faint traces of incomplete Dao patterns appeared on its scale armor.

Han Ruyan took the initiative, pressing her jade hand downwards, an invisible eerie power began to spread like a tide.

The ground beneath seemed deprived of life, forests decayed, stones turned to dust, rivers transformed into foul dead water, and the strange curse power continued to spread.

The thousand-hand centipede chose to take a defensive stance, its insect shell scale armor's incomplete Dao patterns shone as it resisted the curse's invasion, launching a counterattack at Han Ruyan.

Six pairs of wings flapped, and the massive body of the thousand-hand centipede soared into the sky. As it flapped its wings, thousands upon thousands of small centipedes spewed from all over its body.

These small centipedes, each with a purple single eye, could emit purple light rays. Although not as powerful as the main body, their numbers could lock down Han Ruyan's movement path.

After all, Han Ruyan as the fierce ghost moved unpredictably, difficult to follow her traces.

The thousand-hand centipede opened its mouth wide, and as it breathed, the Tao breath descended.

It seemed as if an invisible Divine Sword descended from the void, an oppressive force so terrifying it made one's soul tremble.

The sky's clouds were neatly sliced open, and below, a lengthy rift appeared on the ground.

Even Su Jie, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but flinch at such power; cultivators of the third and fourth levels of the Dao Platform Realm would likely struggle to face it head-on.

Yet Han Ruyan didn't choose to evade; she removed a golden hairpin from her head, which transformed, imbued with her eerie power, shooting forward.

Boom!

The void emitted a shattering sound from the unbearable pressure, like the roar of the ocean, or a cataclysmic flood ravaging, with terrifying shock waves transmitted to the ground, flattening everything in their path.

This is the incomplete Tao rule that the thousand-hand centipede has just mastered, colliding with Han Ruyan's strange power.

This collision lasted for a few seconds, and the thousand-hand centipede's breath had the upper hand. This breath was astonishingly powerful, destroying everything along the way and breaking Han Ruyan's golden hairpin defense.

However, after breaking the golden hairpin, Han Ruyan's figure was not seen.

Because Han Ruyan had already appeared above the thousand-hand centipede's head, holding a brass makeup mirror in her left hand and a celebration lantern in her right.

"Buzz!"

The void trembles, and the mirror of the brass makeup mirror reveals the domineering figure of the thousand-hand centipede, half of it.

In reality, half of the thousand-hand centipede's figure also vanished, as if it had escaped into another space, because the thousand-hand centipede's power was too strong for the mirror girl to contain completely.

Celebration lanterns fell around the thousand-hand centipede, empowered by Han Ruyan's strength, ignoring the centipede's physical body and penetrating directly inside. Wherever it passed, the centipede's body, harder than refined iron, decayed and aged, maggots burrowing, wrinkles spreading.

Moreover, a blood-colored bridal gown descended from the sky, tightly binding and wrapping the thousand-hand centipede, forming a red insect cocoon, aiming to completely subdue the centipede.

Han Ruyan floated gracefully over, her curse power spreading within the thousand-hand centipede's body, attacking the centipede's body.

Sizzle!

The thousand-hand centipede was enraged, letting out a thunderous roar, and the brass makeup mirror in Han Ruyan's hand showed cracks.

On the surface of the thousand-hand centipede's body, those branded incomplete Tao lines shone brightly, exploding with ten thousand divine rays. Numerous pale corpse hands, vigorous and forceful, attempted to forcibly tear apart the constraints of the blood-colored bridal gown.

Its physical body was no longer confined to flesh and blood; parts transformed into magma, others into frost and snow, others into flowing streams. Every facet of nature could be found on the thousand-hand centipede's body. This was the trait of Tao Chaos Creatures, as the Tao is formless, and these creatures inherited this characteristic.

At this moment, the thousand-hand centipede resembled an ancient fierce beast descending to the world. Its body swung, freeing the half-missing body.

The brass makeup mirror in Han Ruyan's hand shattered halfway, and the mirror girl appeared beside her, her body resembling broken porcelain forcibly glued together, covered with cracks, with a look of fear as she gazed at the thousand-hand centipede.

"Withdraw!"

Han Ruyan frowned deeply, and the black moon in the sky gradually descended. Strange eyes on the black moon opened wide, staring intently at the thousand-hand centipede. A strong curse erupted, annihilating the centipede's body and decaying its divine soul.

The thousand-hand centipede sensed danger; its body transformed into high-temperature magma, golden divine flames soared, burning away the strange curse's influence on its body.

Its speed to escape quickened, breaking free from Han Ruyan's wedding dress constraint, tearing apart the bridal gown binding it, and charged towards Han Ruyan once again.

Blood trickled from the corner of Han Ruyan's mouth. Named the Ghost Bride, the blood-colored bridal gown carried her roots. When the gown was forcibly torn, she suffered too.

"Little bug! You really do have some skills."

Han Ruyan grabbed the mirror girl and stuffed her into the celebration lantern, using her as the wick and lighting it,

Han Ruyan herself reached out as if grasping stars and moons, capturing the black moon hanging high in the sky and placing it within the blood-colored bridal gown.

In just an instant, the blood light of her body surpassed before, even the cloud layers in the sky transformed into the shape of a blood-colored bridal gown, as if an endless bridal gown covered the sky, layer upon layer, forming a gown that shrouded the sun.

Sizzle!

The thousand-hand centipede shook off the decayed flesh on its body, new flesh rapidly regenerating, the thorny crown on its head shone brightly, arrogantly opposing Han Ruyan.

Just as the two sides were about to collide again, Su Jie appeared between the worm and the ghost.

"Alright, let's end this sparring here. I told you not to get carried away, but you never listen!"

Even as Su Jie intervened, if they continued, it wouldn't end well.

Su Jie's appearance made Han Ruyan restrain her strange aura, and she said mildly, "Let's end it here then. I'll wait to ascend to the ninth grade next time, taming it isn't too late."

Sizzle!

The fierce gleam in the thousand-hand centipede's eyes gradually faded, though it continued to call to Su Jie, opening its mouth, signaling Su Jie to feed it more so it could ascend to the top-grade Nine Refinement Gu Worm sooner and defeat Han Ruyan.

Su Jie shook his head with amusement, soothing the worm and the ghost for a while before they truly calmed down and turned to return to the mountain gate.
