Su Xi saw the bleeding wounds on her body and knew that Fei Yi had not been alarmist.
She had indeed been poisoned, and it was a potent one. If the toxin could not be removed, the wounds on her body would never stop bleeding. Once her blood ran out, her opponent wouldn't need to do anything; she would die on her own.
What made it even harder for Su Xi to believe was that the wounds showed no signs of healing and were, in fact, continuously expanding, with the amount of blood flowing out also increasing.
Fei Yi, watching Su Xi's increasingly pale face, wore a look of amusement.
The poison within Su Xi at this moment originated from Jiuyou. Ordinary people had never even seen it, let alone had a way to dispel it. Making Su Xi experience the agony of bleeding to death was, in a way, enough to quell his anger.
Although Su Xi knew her condition was grim, she gritted her teeth and raised the Meteor God Sword in her hand, charging at Fei Yi.
Giving up so easily was not her principle.
Anyone who wished to harm her would have to pay a price.
Fei Yi scoffed at Su Xi's suicidal charge.
Overestimating herself.
With a wave of his hand, he sent Su Xi, who had reached him, flying back again.
The gap in cultivation between him and Su Xi was an insurmountable chasm. Even if Su Xi risked her life, it would be like a moth to a flame.
Conversely, Su Xi's continuous use of her power would only accelerate the circulation of the poison in her body, leading to her death even faster.
Su Xi, flung back by Fei Yi, did not stop. She continued to charge at Fei Yi, as if driven to a frenzy.
With the thought of risking her life, she only wanted to inflict harm on Fei Yi.
Again and again.
But each time, before Su Xi could reach Fei Yi, she was sent flying, crashing heavily to the ground. After each landing, more wounds would appear on her body.
Unknowingly, the ground was already nearly soaked red with her blood.
Yet, even with the addition of new wounds, Su Xi seemed oblivious, continuing her advance without regard for her injuries.
Fei Yi, sending Su Xi flying once more, began to feel impatient.
He had important matters to attend to and didn't have much time to play around with Su Xi here.
With the Fire Spirit Orb, the Heavenly Scar would be sealed no longer. Their demonic race would soon break free from the seal and descend upon the mortal world. Therefore, he didn't want to waste time playing with Su Xi.
Just as he was about to make a move to eliminate the troublesome Su Xi, he suddenly felt as if he were trapped in a swamp, unable to move.
"Huh?"
Fei Yi felt the powerful restraint on his body, and for a moment, he didn't know what was happening.
Why, all of a sudden, did he feel utterly unable to use his demonic power? Every time he tried to mobilize it, it felt like needles pricking him, causing extreme discomfort.
The anomaly in his body made his gaze immediately fall upon the blood-soaked Su Xi before him.
If there was a change, it could only be Su Xi's doing.
Su Xi raised her head, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and looked at Fei Yi, saying with a triumphant grin, "Hahaha, is it too late for you to realize now?"
She was not one to admit defeat, but she wasn't foolish either.
Knowing something was impossible, she wouldn't force it, nor would she use her life to brute-force it.
The reason she had made herself appear so pathetic earlier was to mislead Fei Yi; in reality, she intended to use a formation against him.
She knew her cultivation was no match for Fei Yi, and that True Lord Tiangang had not yet recovered from his previous exertion, making him unable to act.
To deal with Fei Yi, she could only rely on the formidable power of formations.
The Heavenly Talisman recorded not only the usage of talismans but also the principles of formations. Now that she had cultivated to the second level of the Heavenly Talisman, she naturally had the ability to draw formations.
Moreover, this very location was precisely what True Lord Tiangang had described as an ideal place to set up a formation.
Therefore, Su Xi specifically used her own blood as a guide for the formation, setting up the "God Annihilation Formation" with the sole purpose of destroying Fei Yi.
Although the God Annihilation Formation was the lowest-tier formation in the Heavenly Talisman, it possessed immense power, capable of annihilating cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage.
After all, the God Annihilation Formation utilized the Five Elements, granting it power far exceeding other formations.
"Rise!" Su Xi poured more of her spiritual energy into it, and bursts of blinding red light appeared within the formation, gradually engulfing Fei Yi.
Within the red light, streams of red blood chains emerged, coiling around Fei Yi. Then, as these blood chains wrapped around Fei Yi, they seemed to come alive, sprouting numerous smaller tendrils that pierced into his body.
"Roar~"
Injured, Fei Yi let out a beast-like roar and struggled against his bonds.
But the blood chains held him tightly, rendering him immobile. He could only watch as his demonic power was continuously absorbed.
His eyes blazing red, he glared at Su Xi and yelled furiously, "If you don't let me go, you will die too. If you let me go, I can still give you the antidote."
Su Xi had long been poisoned by him, and without an antidote, she wouldn't survive for long. Since he was certain the formation was difficult to deal with, Fei Yi naturally wouldn't choose to endure it.
Hearing Fei Yi's words, Su Xi smiled and shook her head. "Go in peace. Your poison is nothing. If I wanted to resolve it, I wouldn't need you."
With that, Su Xi showed him her wounds. They had already scabbed over, with no sign of blood seeping out.
"Why is this?" Fei Yi stared at Su Xi in disbelief. Why had Su Xi dispelled his poison so quickly?
This was illogical. Was she dreaming?
Su Xi looked at Fei Yi like an idiot and said helplessly, "Do you know what 'science' is?"
Fei Yi's poison was an enzyme that disrupted blood coagulation, similar to snake venom.
Since she possessed the most advanced computer, she had naturally analyzed the composition of the poison. Through the massive data compilation of the supercomputer, finding a cure had been effortless.
Unfortunately, Fei Yi had been too arrogant and hadn't killed her immediately, giving her a chance to turn the tables.
It was too late for him to regret it now.
Fei Yi looked at Su Xi before him, his eyes filled with crimson rage, and hoarsely declared, "I will kill you."
Su Xi didn't even lift her eyelids, nonchalantly replying, "We'll talk about whether you can kill me after you manage to get out."
The world she had traversed was not a "Word of Power" world where a mere sentence could move mountains and fill seas, or take lives.
Fei Yi was merely a soul body, posing no real threat, especially now that he had fallen into her trap.
Soon, Fei Yi was completely encased by the blood chains, leaving no visible gap.
Su Xi watched this scene without any curiosity. Instead, she turned to True Lord Tiangang beside her and asked, puzzled, "Grand-Ancestor, the danger is gone, why do you still have such a somber expression?"
