Chapter 2410: Chapter 2408: Pincer Attack from Both Sides

Here is the translation based on your specifications:

“What should we do? Elder Baker, have you ever studied the Witch Clan’s techniques? Is there any way to break this Disgusting Charm?”

Kennedi Evans’s body trembled. If Ethan Smith lost, they would all die.

*It’s incredibly difficult to break!* Disgusting Charm is the Witch Clan’s most core technique. The earliest user of this method was King Zhou of Shang, whose target was unbelievably audacious: the gods. King Zhou created a puppet, claiming it was a deity. He insulted and fired arrows at it, calling this act ‘shooting the heavens.’ Who would have thought this little girl could master such a technique?

Elder Baker’s face was equally grim. He hadn’t expected Ethan Smith’s Divine Soul Power, comparable to the first tier of tribulation, to be almost ineffective against this little girl.

“Witch Gu Domain!”

Ji Yuyi raised her head and gazed at the sky, her pupils glowing like lanterns.

A faint layer of Domain Power suddenly emanated from the puppet, enveloping Ethan Smith. In an instant, the crimson glow intensified to its peak.

Inside Ethan Smith’s Sea of Consciousness, he suddenly sensed a surge of multiplied strength piercing into his divine sense, as more crimson threads violently linked to his Divine Soul.

“Mokeyi, you’re so ugly–hurry up and fix your appearance.”

The puppet’s head was now drenched in blood, which had flowed down to cover its entire face. Its appearance was akin to an Evil Ghost from Hell.

Mokeyi grabbed a mirror with one hand and a comb with the other, brushing it through her hair.

In an instant, the space around the puppet rippled violently; a small, circular area seemingly opened like a ‘door.’ A torrent of dark energy washed through, as hundreds of spectral forces surged forward and gathered around the puppet.

The specters’ pale, translucent faces bore eerie smiles as they stared at Ethan Smith, their gazes aligned with Mokeyi’s.

The blazing crimson light of the domain compounded the horror, forcing even the Williams Saintess to retreat repeatedly, her face ashen.

A wave expanded within Ethan Smith’s Sea of Knowledge. He felt a massive iron hook appear within his Sea of Divine Soul.

The iron hook sank deep into his Divine Soul, tearing nine enormous wounds.

Countless streams of black mist gushed violently from the wounds, which, upon closer inspection, revealed swarms of parasite-like insects resembling gnats.

Dark energy visibly spread across Ethan Smith’s face. His Divine Soul Energy plummeted suddenly, and he spit out a mouthful of pitch-black blood containing countless wriggling parasites.

“It’s actually the Human Bone Comb and Evil Spirit Mirror–two of the Nine Sacred Artifacts of the Ancestral Witch! These artifacts vanished during the downfall of the Ancestral Witch in Ancient Times. I didn’t expect them to fall into the hands of the Ji Family. Ethan Smith is in trouble–do you have any solutions?”

The man with the mustache looked grim as he stood beside the Williams Saintess and spoke.

“I have no solution. I only came here because the Saint Master of the Williams Clan discovered some arrangements by the Ji Family and sent me here hoping to gain certain benefits. I have no knowledge of their ultimate goal, which seems to involve refining the royal family’s bloodline and souls into the Ghost Sword Evil Eye.”

The Williams Saintess forced a bitter smile. *She was already wondering whether she should withdraw immediately; otherwise, Ethan Smith’s death would doom her as well.*

“Heath Perez, in a moment, use your strongest formation to restrain the Immortal Emperor Corpse and buy me some time. I need to activate the Coffin!”

Ethan Smith’s voice suddenly echoed from within the Sumeru Ring.

“Oh, come on, big brother, it’s the Immortal Emperor Corpse!” Heath Perez’s face turned pale.

“Everyone, get ready–we’re putting everything on the line,” Elder Baker shouted to rally the group.

Ethan Smith entered the Sumeru Ring, kicking open the coffin lid and raising the Coffin with both hands as chaotic qi surged into it.

Instantly, the Coffin began to operate, emitting a massive wave of Ghost Qi.

Almost immediately, Ethan Smith noticed the interior of the Sumeru Ring engulfed in a sea of flames.

The terrifying shockwaves nearly ejected the ring from his possession. Its spatial structure was collapsing rapidly, while black patterns indicative of Spatial Rifts spread across its surface.

*Hold on!*

Ethan Smith temporarily ignored the Sumeru Ring. Carrying the Coffin, he charged straight toward Ji Yuyi.

Grabbing the Coffin, he swung it at Ji Yuyi, who waved her hand to command Mokeyi forward.

Mokeyi’s comb transformed into a blade, blocking the Coffin, as hundreds of Resentful Spirits screamed hideously and slammed into it.

*An extreme cold and malevolence clashed ferociously with the immense Ghost Qi emanating from the Coffin.*

At the epicenter of the collision, the air instantly froze into shards of ice, which rained heavily onto the ground.

The extreme cold immobilized Ethan Smith’s thoughts, leaving him to silently witness the collision without interference.

A few seconds later, a furious roar erupted from within the Coffin, seemingly originating from another world.

A wave of black sound swept outward, revealing a blurred shadow.

An irresistible surge of Ghost Qi exploded forth, igniting all the Resentful Spirits in an instant.

Even Mokeyi’s body caught fire, enveloped in Black Fire, while Ji Yuyi’s face turned ghostly pale before she collapsed.

Meanwhile, within the Sumeru Ring, the Immortal Emperor Corpse fully unleashed its power.

Heath Perez activated countless formidable formations, requiring everyone’s blood essence to fuel the process.

The spiritual energy saturated within the Sumeru Ring depleted entirely within mere seconds.

The Qingling Tree plunged its roots deep into the spatial foundation to withstand the cataclysmic force.

“Seal!”

Ethan Smith focused his mind, moving swiftly to face the Immortal Emperor and pressing the Coffin against its corpse.

*Bang!*

The Immortal Emperor Corpse let out an enraged howl, seemingly recognizing the Coffin that had repeatedly suppressed it.

The moment the Coffin encompassed it, the corpse swung a mighty palm toward Ethan Smith.

“Restrain it!”

Heath Perez’s veins bulged as a massive formation radiated dazzling light.

Numerous spiritual energy iron chains vibrated intensely, instantly clamping down on the Immortal Emperor Corpse and reducing the palm’s force by half.

“Singularity Space!”

Ethan Smith waved his hand, flipping tens of thousands of layers of space.

“Pagoda Tree Shield!”

A massive piece of locust wood plummeted from the air, absorbing part of the force on Ethan Smith’s behalf.

*Bang!*

Almost instantly, the Immortal Emperor’s palm shattered every defense and struck Ethan Smith’s chest.

*He was sent flying like a bomb, unsure how many bones had broken in the impact.*

“Qingling Tree!”

The Qingling Tree extended giant leaf blades, wrapping around Ethan Smith and dispersing a tremendous amount of force. Without its intervention, Ethan Smith’s body might have been thrown out of the Sumeru Ring entirely.

“Die!”

Salena Carpenter and Frederick Cohen seized the coffin lid and finally sealed the Coffin completely.

At last, the Immortal Emperor Corpse fell silent.

“Ji Ao!”

Ethan Smith grabbed a handful of Green Spirit Fruits. These had formed during the Qingling Tree’s absorption of Ji Family ancestors’ spatial essence, and he had been reluctant to consume them until now.
