Pacifying Demons at the Great Wall.
"Boomââ"
Every clash of the six Nascent Soul cultivators made the heavens and earth tremble.
Their battle had escalated to a life-and-death struggle.
Xiao Poxu, controlling the Golden Cloud Sword, found it increasingly difficult to withstand the strikes of the giant axe.
Shangguan Yunzhi and Feng Qingyan were not faring any better.
The three of them were almost at their limits.
At this moment, the world suddenly began to resonate, and a pillar of Evil Qi surged from the rear, nearly tearing the sky apart.
The six Nascent Soul cultivators simultaneously turned to the source of the phenomenon.
"This is..."
Emperor Tianxiâs expression tightened: "Bone-Eroding Ridge?!"
"Not good!"
Qu San Yuan panicked: "Someone has circled to our rear."
"Itâs Chen Lei..."
Zhao Rui was alarmed: "Destructive Spirit Array!"
"Boomââ"
The phenomenon at Bone-Eroding Ridge didnât last long; after another loud boom, it began to subside gradually.
At the same time, the energy source of the Demon Path armyâs Devouring Evil Dragon Formation depleted, causing battleships to extinguish sequentially. The Slaughter Vein spanning thousands of miles dried up instantly, as if rivers met a severe drought!
Slaughter Vein...
Gone!
"No way."
Zhao Rui felt increasingly uneasy: "We must go back!"
They turned around, intending to head to Bone-Eroding Ridge to assess the situation.
Xiao Poxu and the others naturally realized as well.
"Chen Lei, that guy...
"Kept Zhao Ruiâs group occupied here to ambush the rear and destroy their Slaughter Vein?
"With the Slaughter Vein destroyed, the Demon Path canât use formations, making it much harder for them to siege the city!"
"Ingenious move!"
Shangguan Yunzhi praised: "I almost forgot that Daoist Tianwu has a life-extinguishing Divine Skill!"
"Indeed."
Xiao Poxu lamented: "But he should have told us! Keeping it a secret and playing the hero alone?!"
Seeing the three from Demon Path attempting to flee, he quickly said, "Hurry, stop them, buy Chen Lei some time!
"Man and sword become one!"
As the words fell.
Xiao Poxu formed a seal and chanted, transforming his body into a stream of light, merging with his Lifebound Spiritual Treasure. The Golden Cloud Flying Sword swelled in the wind, extending thousands of feet.
Shangguan Yunzhi flicked the strings, her jade-like fingers moving as fast as a lotus, sending waves of sound transforming into thousands of soldiers, carrying boundless killing intent towards the Demon Path people.
Feng Qingyan hesitated for a moment but quickly wielded the brush, casting his Divine Skills.
The three of them successfully blocked Zhao Rui and his colleagues, striving to delay as much as possible.
"Get out of hereâ"
Sui Liyan lost patience, roaring while throwing an axe that sent the Golden Sky Giant Sword flying, its blade lamenting as it embedded into a mountain, then quickly shrinking back to its original size.
Xiao Poxu was forced to end the man-sword unity, kneeling on one knee as he spat a mouthful of blood.
"Next time, Iâll take your life!"
Concerned for his nephewâs safety, Sui Liyan did not press the advantage, his mind set on returning to the base camp.
"Stay... here!"
Xiao Poxu shouted loudly, forming seals with both hands before his chest, concentrating golden light on his forehead, and then a phantom emerged from his Heavenly Spirit, instantly teleporting in front of the Ancient Demon Elder.
Upon closer inspection, it was a chubby baby, while Xiao Poxuâs true body remained in place.
Nascent Soul Emergence!
"What?"
Sui Liyan squinted: "Do you want to die?!"
After a Nascent Soul emerges, mana can become more pure, but itâs also highly susceptible to damaging the core, potentially resulting in total soul destruction!
Therefore, cultivators never use this means unless absolutely necessary.
"Stop the nonsense!"
Xiao Poxuâs Nascent Soul child rode the Golden Cloud Sword: "Today, we must determine a victor!"
"Then youâre dead!"
Sui Liyan gritted his teeth, attacking once more.
Nearby, Shangguan Yunzhi observed and bit her silver teeth, sparing no Essence Blood as she continued to battle Qu San Yuan.
Only Feng Qingyan was gradually unable to sustain, exposing flaws in the fight.
Zhao Rui seized the opportunity, vertically slashing down with the Heaven Opening Technique.
Feng Qingyan hurriedly used the Heavenly Abyss Ink Rhythm Brush to draw a shield in front of him.
But at the moment of contact with the Sword Aura, the shield shattered.
He let out a wail, flying backward and heavily crashing to the ground, continuously coughing up blood.
Zhao Rui didnât give him a chance to breathe, layers of Corpse Qi amassed on his blade, ready to end his life with a single stroke.
"Mr. Xiao!"
Feng Qingyan clutched his chest, shouting: "Hurry, save me!"
"You?!"
Not far away, Xiao Poxu was battling the Ancient Demon Elder, but upon seeing this, he had no choice but to slash his opponent back, then use the Instantaneous Technique to arrive just in time to block Emperor Tianxiâs fatal blow for the old Daoist.
Although it was a narrow escape, during this time, Sui Liyan had already retreated over a hundred miles, disappearing beyond the clouds.
"Old Daoist!"
Xiao Poxuâs Nascent Soul stomped: "Whatâs your problem!"
Feng Qingyan weakly said: "Cough, cough, itâs my incompetence, dragging Elder Xiao down, todayâs lifesaving grace, I will repay heavily in the future!"
"Stop the nonsense!"
Xiao Poxu urged: "One has escaped, but we must leave the remaining two behind no matter what!"
As for whether that Chen kid can survive the Ancient Demon Elder, he can only rely on good fortune!
...
Bone-Eroding Ridge.
The Buddhist Chant reverberated through the sky, Buddha Light illuminated the world!
Just as Chen Sansi used the Destructive Spirit Array to seal the Slaughter Vein, Jianzhen Monk was madly attacking the Ancient Demon Young Master.
The Treasure Staff in his hand was like a Buddha Divine Weapon, invincible.
Sui Li Young Masterâs muscles bulged, frantically wielding the Demon Blade to meet the dazzling attacks.
