Chapter 296 Will the Palace Come Back to Life?
"So beautiful..." Even the well-informed Golden Cicada Envoy couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Jiang Mo remained vigilant: "The more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it often is."
"These corals are very likely part of the Coral Gu Woman!"
Sure enough, when they arrived at a particularly magnificent coral palace...
The entire palace suddenly came to life!
The coral branches wriggled like tentacles, converging in the center and gradually forming a human shape.
It was a creature with a female silhouette, its entire body made of coral.
Its skin is pink, and its hair is made of tiny coral branches that sway with the water.
What is most striking are her eyes, which gleam with a dangerous light like two obsidian stones.
"Coral Gu Woman..." Jiang Mo whispered.
The Coral Gu Woman's obsidian-like eyes flashed with surprise when she saw Jiang Mo: "You...you can actually control my servants?"
The sound was strange, as if countless tiny bubbles were bursting.
Jiang Mo said calmly, "A mere dark bloodline is nothing but a threat before the God of Gu."
"Coral Gu Woman, I'm giving you two choices: one, voluntarily relinquish your dark bloodline and accept purification;"
"Secondly, if I forcibly purify them, the consequences will be even more painful."
Upon hearing this, the Coral Gu Woman let out a laugh like the clinking of coral: "Gu God? So you're the reincarnation of the Gu God that my master fears?"
"Interesting, I didn't expect them to come to my door in person."
"However, you're far too confident! This is my territory; in the ocean, no one can stand against me!"
After saying that, the Coral Gu Woman suddenly opened her arms, and the entire Coral Palace began to shake!
Countless coral branches burst forth from the ground, piercing towards Jiang Mo and the Golden Cicada Envoy like sharp swords!
"Watch out!" The Golden Cicada hurriedly dodged.
Jiang Mo remained completely calm. A golden light flashed in his palm, forming a golden barrier.
All the coral branches turned to powder the moment they touched the barrier.
"Is this all you've got? It's incredibly disappointing," Jiang Mo said, shaking his head.
The Coral Gu Woman roared in fury: "Arrogant!"
Her body suddenly merged into the surrounding coral reef, and the entire coral palace became a part of her!
"Coral Realm, Dance of Death!"
In an instant, all the corals around came to life, forming a huge vortex that trapped Jiang Mo and Jin Chanshi in the center.
The whirlpool spun faster and faster, and the surrounding water temperature began to drop sharply.
"She wants to freeze us to death!" Jin Chan exclaimed.
Jiang Mo sneered: "A mere trick!"
"The Golden Gu's Divine Power, the Heaven-Burning Flame!"
A golden flame ignited in the water, illuminating the entire whirlpool!
Amazingly, the flame could burn in water at an extremely high temperature, instantly dispelling the surrounding low temperature.
"How is this possible? How can fire be generated in water?" The Coral Gu Woman's voice was filled with horror.
Jiang Mo said calmly, "Fire, water, metal, wood, earth—the five elements—are all at my disposal before the God of Gu!"
"The Golden Gu's divine power unleashes the unity of the five elements!"
Golden flames suddenly erupted, forming a huge golden sphere of light that spread outwards!
All the corals touched by the light sphere instantly turned into powder.
The vortex that the Coral Gu Woman had carefully constructed was completely destroyed in just a few seconds!
"Ah!" The Coral Gu Woman let out a painful scream, forced to separate from the coral and reveal her true form.
She was no longer as beautiful as before; she had transformed into a hideous half-human, half-coral monster, emanating a black aura.
"Damn Gu God! I'll kill you!" the Coral Gu Woman roared madly.
The coral on her chest suddenly parted, revealing a jet-black bead—the core of the Dark Bloodline!
"Dark Bloodline, unleash its full power!"
Dark energy surged from the bead, and the Coral Gu Woman's body rapidly expanded, transforming into a colossal creature nearly ten meters tall!
"Lord Gu God, be careful!" the Golden Cicada Envoy shouted a warning. "She has unleashed the full power of her dark bloodline; this is a suicidal attack!"
Jiang Mo nodded, his eyes gleaming with golden light: "It seems she's determined to fight to the death."
"Very well, then let me see just how powerful the dark bloodline truly is!"
"Golden Gu Divine Power, Gu God True Form!"
A burst of golden light erupted, and Jiang Mo's body was instantly enveloped by a huge golden phantom, comparable to the gigantic Coral Gu Woman!
Two enormous creatures confront each other on the seabed.
The surrounding water flow was transformed into turbulent undercurrents by the energy they emitted.
"Coral Gu Woman, I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. Don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Jiang Mo's voice echoed in the water as the Gu God's true form suddenly attacked, punching the Coral Gu Woman in the chest!
The Coral Gu Woman was not to be outdone; countless hard coral branches formed a shield in front of her chest.
&34;Boom!&34;
The fist collided with the shield, unleashing a powerful shockwave that leveled the surrounding coral reefs!
However, in the face of absolute power, any defense is futile.
Jiang Mo's fist pierced through the coral shield and struck the Coral Gu Woman hard in the chest!
&34;Ah!&34;
Amidst a piercing scream, cracks appeared in the black bead on the Coral Gu Woman's chest, and black energy began to leak out.
"No...impossible...my dark bloodline..."
The Coral Gu Woman stared in disbelief at the crack on her chest, but Jiang Mo didn't give her a chance to catch her breath.
"Golden Gu Divine Power, Purifying Light!"
A dazzling golden light shot out from Jiang Mo's palm, striking the black bead directly!
The black bead trembled violently under the golden light, the cracks grew larger and larger, and finally, with a "bang," it burst open!
&34;Ahhh!&34;
The Coral Gu Woman let out a shrill scream, her body rapidly shrank, and the black aura gradually dissipated.
When the golden light faded, the once ferocious and terrifying Coral Gu Woman had turned into an ordinary coral cluster, standing quietly on the seabed.
"Purification complete," Jiang Mo retracted her Gu God form. "Unfortunately, she had been too deeply corrupted by the dark bloodline to revert to her original form; she could only return to nature."
The Golden Cicada swam closer to the coral cluster and sighed, "This is the price of being corrupted by the dark bloodline..."
"Lord Gu God, I can sense that her final consciousness has found peace."
Jiang Mo nodded: "That's good."
He took a small fragment from the broken black bead and examined it closely: "This is the core of the Dark Bloodline, closely connected to the Heavenly Gu Sect Master."
"We have already purified five vessels of the dark bloodline."
"The power of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master must have been significantly weakened."
Jin Chan said happily, "Yes, and with the reinforcement of the Seven Star Tomb's seal, the Heavenly Gu Sect Master's plan has suffered a serious blow!"
Jiang Mo, however, showed no sign of relaxation: "Don't be too happy yet; there are still three dark bloodline carriers to deal with."
"Moreover, the Heavenly Gu Sect Master won't give up so easily; he'll definitely have a backup plan."
We must get there as soon as possible to support Feng Baobao and the others!
The two quickly returned to the submarine, surfaced, and immediately contacted Feng Baobao.
