"It's the witch!"

Hearing the witch's voice filled with laughter, Yang Tian and the others stopped, looking up in surprise at the suddenly appearing witch.

Though the witch's voice was filled with laughter, no one could relax.

This witch hides a dagger in her smile, joking with you one moment but might strike for your life the next.

Moreover, whenever she acts, no one can resist.

Wang Ying, Ling Ying, and Wang Yue were all terrified, fearing the witch would learn Yang Tian had impersonated her, wasn't that an offense to her dignity?

"Mistress Witch, these are the pathetic humans we are supposed to kill, but they impersonated you. I sensed your unique aura on them!"

The Azure Dragon said firmly.

"Humph!"

The witch hurled the Azure Dragon to the ground, descending gracefully to face Yang Tian, asking with keen interest, "I heard from the Azure Dragon that it sensed my Spiritual Breath on you, which led to its escape. I'm curious, how did you mimic my aura?"

"That's something I can't disclose!"

Yang Tian certainly would not tell the witch the truth.

He both declined the witch and pondered ways to escape.

As long as he could evade the witch's attack, everything would be easier.

But escaping right under the witch's nose, how could that be easy?

Perhaps sensing what Yang Tian was thinking, the witch said softly, "Yang Tian, you should honestly tell me the truth. There's no way you can escape!"

Yang Tian frowned, then replied, "Witch, there's no harm in telling you. I previously used a Divine Talisman to obtain a trace of your Spiritual Breath. By running my Cultivation Technique, I could utilize your aura, which scared away these five Demon Beasts!"

"Is that really so?"

The witch didn't rush to attack Yang Tian but looked at him with interest.

"Absolutely true!"

Yang Tian lied without any change in his expression.

But clearly, the witch didn't accept Yang Tian's explanation. Instead, she waved her hand, producing a dagger.

She gave it a little flick.

The dagger suddenly soared, releasing a shower of scarlet daggers from mid-air, raining down upon Yang Tian and the others.

Boom!

The ever-alert Wang Lingzhan, seeing the witch start her attack, immediately activated his Spiritual Breath to block it.

But how could Wang Lingzhan be a match for the witch?

As a result, the witch's assault overwhelmed Wang Lingzhan with a single blow, flinging him backward.

Crash!

Wang Lingzhan fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood with a pale face, "Witch, you've grown stronger!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ying, Ling Ying, and Wang Yue all turned pale: "Has the witch grown stronger again?"

"How about it, Yang Tian, are you scared?"

The witch asked with a smile.

Yang Tian lowered his head to think, then suddenly raised his voice, "Witch, I think you should have guessed why I have so many secrets, and, yes, you're correct. Your true body, that ice crystal coffin, is with me. Whenever I encounter your attacks, I can resolve them using your true body's Spiritual Breath!"

"What? The witch's true body is with you?"

Everyone was shocked upon hearing Yang Tian's words.

The witch chuckled, but a harsh gleam flashed in her eyes: "Yang Tian, now you're finally telling the truth!"

Immediately, Yang Tian felt a massive surge of Spiritual Breath emanating from the witch, flooding into his body.

In that moment, Yang Tian was immobilized.

"Big brother, what's wrong with you..."

Wang Yue asked anxiously.

Yang Tian couldn't reply to Wang Yue, only the icy voice of the witch resounded, "But I don't believe you, a mere weakling, have the qualification to possess my true body. The ice crystal coffin contains my aura. When danger arises, the coffin activates a self-protection mechanism. How could you possibly obtain it?"

As she spoke, Yang Tian felt a release on his body.

The Weed Ring shot out.

Bang!

The witch merely pressed lightly, and the Weed Ring opened.

The Magical Treasures and Demon Beasts collected from the continent spilled out, leaving the Weed Ring empty in no time.

However, amid all that fell, there was no ice crystal coffin.

In fact, Yang Tian had stored the ice crystal coffin in his Spiritual Space as soon as he transformed his appearance into the witch's using the aura of an unrivaled beauty.

This Spiritual Space was something he had carved out using a Divine Talisman.

Unless Yang Tian perished, nothing could discover the ice crystal coffin in his Spiritual Space.

Even the witch could only empty Yang Tian's Weed Ring, unable to uncover the ice crystal coffin hidden within his Spiritual Space.

Seeing the Magical Treasures and Demon Beasts on the ground, the witch coldly said, "I told you, a pitiful weakling like you couldn't possibly obtain my true body. Tell me, where is the true body?"

The surroundings fell silent.

Wang Lingzhan and the others looked intensely at Yang Tian.

They never expected Yang Tian's prowess stemmed from possessing the witch's true body.

But where was the witch's true body?

"Witch, you're correct, I don't have the qualification to obtain your true body. I could only absorb the Spiritual Breath of your true body; subsequently, the ice crystal coffin vanished."

Yang Tian said coldly.

"Hehe..." the witch laughed, "Indeed, you're just a weakling. It's impossible for you to have my true body. I can't sense the aura of my true body on you, you've only acquired a wisp of my aura, and should you touch the ice crystal coffin, it would disappear!"

"I'd love to eternally possess your true body, to utilize the Spiritual Breath on your true body! But the ice crystal coffin automatically disappears once touched."

Though externally Yang Tian appeared disappointed, inwardly he smirked coldly.

This witch was reckless and overpoweringly strong, yet she looked down on Yang Tian in every way. How would she know that not only had Yang Tian obtained her true body, but he had also kept it in his Spiritual Space, furthermore engaging with it in intimate activities daily.

"Humph!"

The witch snorted coldly.

Suddenly, three strands of Spiritual Aura streaked from the witch's hand, striking Yang Tian in the chest.

The Spiritual Aura came too swiftly for Yang Tian to dodge.

By the time he reacted, the Spiritual Aura had already left a Spirit Seal on his chest.

"Yang Tian, although you lack the strength to obtain my true body, being able to absorb the Spiritual Breath from my true body means you can find my true body! Thirty years ago, when declaring a self-protection mechanism over the coffin, no being could absorb the aura from my true body, nor could any being find it, including myself!"

The witch stated coldly.

Silence gripped the area; no one dared speak.

The witch glanced at Yang Tian and continued, "I've placed a Spirit Seal on you. I'll give you three days to locate my true body, and I'll let you live. If not, you'll die here!"

An imposing majesty surged from the witch's presence.

Yang Tian clenched his fists tightly.

He mused inwardly: Witch, just wait—once you leave, I'll truly unlock more positions with your true body!

But outwardly, Yang Tian maintained sincerity, "Rest assured, Witch. I'll do my best within three days to locate the ice crystal coffin!"

"Then you may leave!"

The witch replied indifferently.

Ignoring Yang Tian and the others, she turned and flew towards the Azure Dragon, intending to refine it.

The Azure Dragon, though barely holding on, had overheard the conversation between the witch and Yang Tian, understanding they were adversaries. Seeing the witch approach suddenly, the Azure Dragon pleaded, "Witch, please spare me. I can tell you a colossal secret related to the Demonic Technique that appeared in the Ninefold Heaven thirty years ago!"

"Demonic Technique?"

Upon hearing this, the witch's magnificent form abruptly trembled, a gleam flashing in her eyes.

"Yes, the Demonic Technique. Someone succeeded in cultivating it—an unborn Demon Embryo!"

The Azure Dragon hurriedly spoke, seeing the witch's interest.

"Cultivated Demonic Technique within a Demon Embryo?"

This time, the witch's peerless face finally showed surprise...
