Suddenly, Xiao Yu'er placed one hand before her chest and formed a peculiar hand seal.
"What is she doing?"
This scene put all the members of the God Clan on alert.
Because they discovered that once Xiao Yu'er formed the hand seal, her entire demeanor and aura had changed.
A strange power emanated from within Xiao Yu'er's body — a power of immense might, yet completely unrelated to the God Clan's sacrificial altar.
In an instant, the skies above churned as phantom images of towering waves appeared, covering the entire expanse of the void.
A supernatural phenomenon had appeared!!!
"Stop her."
Shen Yi sensed something was wrong and immediately issued his command.
The God Clan members all attacked at once. Countless golden chains of light descended from above, all reaching to bind Xiao Yu'er.
But those chains could not get close to Xiao Yu'er — they were blocked by the power radiating from her body.
Upon seeing this, Shen Bai and the other God Clan heavenly gods also hurriedly attacked, but they too were unable to restrain Xiao Yu'er.
Shen Yi's sword-like brows shot upward. He extended his palm and grabbed toward Xiao Yu'er. As golden light surged, a brilliant golden net of martial force descended from the sky, falling toward Xiao Yu'er.
But when the golden net approached Xiao Yu'er, it melted away.
The power around Xiao Yu'er's body seemed utterly indestructible — they could do nothing against it.
Before long, Xiao Yu'er actually rose up from the site of the sacrifice, ascending high into the sky.
And the phantom phenomenon grew ever more powerful, descending from above to envelop heaven and earth. The entire world was flooded with surging tides. Though the phenomenon wouldn't truly cause any damage, one could faintly hear the sound of crashing waves.
"She's using our clan's sacrificial formation to cast her own techniques?"
"Despicable girl — she truly deserves to die!!!"
Shen Yi and the others finally realized what had happened — they had been used by Xiao Yu'er.
No wonder Xiao Yu'er had so resolutely chosen to sacrifice herself. In truth, she had never intended to surrender like that.
She had been using the power within the God Clan's sacrificial formation to execute her own techniques.
And Shen Yi's group was correct.
Xiao Yu'er's grandfather, her parents, and Immortal Sea Shaoyu all looked on with hearts aching beyond measure.
As members of the Immortal Sea Fish Clan, they knew exactly what technique Xiao Yu'er was about to perform.
It was the Immortal Sea Fish Clan's forbidden technique — Bloodline Burns to Nothing!!!
This method was extraordinarily difficult, but as long as one succeeded, one could temporarily obtain power far beyond one's own.
But the price was death.
Suddenly — Blinding golden light and overwhelming killing intent bore down upon all the members of the Immortal Sea Fish Clan.
It was Shen Yi, unable to do anything about Xiao Yu'er, launching an attack against the Immortal Sea Fish Clan members instead.
Splash — But soon the golden light dispersed. The Immortal Sea Fish Clan was completely unharmed — Xiao Yu'er had intervened.
A layer of blue aura, like a surging wave, enveloped all the members of the Immortal Sea Fish Clan.
It was precisely this layer of blue aura that had blocked Shen Yi's attack.
"Yu'er, you!!!!!"
At that moment, all the members of the Immortal Sea Fish Clan felt anguished beyond words.
Xiao Yu'er's technique had not yet fully formed, yet at this very moment, she had still unleashed her power to protect them.
This would be a tremendous hindrance to Xiao Yu'er completing the Bloodline Burns to Nothing.
It might even cause the technique to fail.
But Xiao Yu'er still pressed her palms together, then shifted her hand seal.
In an instant, the celestial phenomenon shifted once more. The waves grew fiercer still, and the sound of the tides drowned out heaven and earth, as though the entire world had truly transformed into an ocean.
And from within Xiao Yu'er's body, nine orbs of light floated out.
The orbs grew larger and larger, until eventually, like nine blazing suns, they hung suspended in the void.
Before long, one of the orbs shattered, and within it appeared a colossal fish.
Though it took the form of a fish, it was extraordinarily domineering, its might suppressing all directions.
