Thirty-six Mountain Peaks.
The disciples of Fengxiang Sword Sect had received Gan Shouting's instructions earlier on. During this period of time, no matter what happened outside, they were not allowed to go out. Therefore, even though they could sense the flashes of spiritual light outside, those with profound cultivation all sat in their own cave abodes, concentrating on guarding inside, unmoved.
As for the junior disciples, they were also restrained by the restriction outside and could not go out.
Ji Xiangping could not hold it in any longer. Seeing that Huo Xuan was making a move, she raised a strong wind and turned into a ray of light. She escaped from Qing Xuan Sect and rushed toward Fengxiang sword school.
In order to prevent the Heavenly Demon from attacking, the two were not far from each other. In less than a hundred breaths, she was already above Hongyu Mountain. She greeted Huo Xuan and rushed down.
At the same time, in Hanyuan Sect.
Ever since Huo Xuan left, Fu Baoxing had been using the power of the spell altar to observe the south from the stargazing platform. At this moment, he saw a ball of indistinct fog rising in the sky, and he knew that it must have collided with the Heavenly Demon.
Huo Xuan was the Immortal Dongtian sent by Qincang School to deal with the Heavenly Demon. Logically, there should not be any accidents, but as the head of a sect, he was responsible for the safety of thousands of disciples. He still had to consider the consequences if he failed.
After thinking about it, he decided to write a letter to his master and report the situation here.
So he called out and ordered someone to bring over a brush and ink. He took out a piece of talisman paper that Yan had bestowed upon him and started writing. He stood up and bowed, and the talisman paper rose into the air and flew in the direction of the Donghua Continent.
Although Sima Quan was fighting for Gan Shouting's soul with all his might, how could the vast spiritual vigor hide from him? He sensed for a moment, then sneered and did not make any move.
Just Now, he saw Gan Shouting suddenly break off a part of his little finger and send it into the sky. It was not difficult to see that he was calling for help.
According to his inference, Ji Xiangping must have rushed over to help and sacrificed some incredible treasure nearby. But even if it was a real treasure, what could it do to his Heavenly Devil body if he did not have a method to subdue the devil? Therefore, he did not care at all.
Not long after. A beam of clear light descended and landed in front of the Hexagonal Sword Cliff. Ji Xiangping appeared from within. Looking ahead, he saw Gan Shouting sitting there motionlessly.
He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and stood there for a moment. When he opened his eyes once more, they were completely cold and indifferent, and there wasn't a trace of emotion mixed within them. He had severed his mortal heart. Then, according to the method that Huo Xuan had taught him, he used his own blood essence as a guide to form several talismans and sent them into Gan Shouting's seven orifices.
After the talisman entered his body, it transformed into a young man.
This was because Ji Xiangping had used her own blood essence as a bridge to move her soul into Gan Shouting's body. In this way, she could fight against the Heavenly Demon. It was just that he didn't have any experience in Divine Soul battles. He had even consumed a Vitality Shielding Pill that Huo Xuan had brought over.
At this moment, Gan Shouting's sea of consciousness was dark and gloomy. Sima Quan's body had transformed into a hundred thousand feet tall and was controlling a large ball of Yin Qi, wrapping the Smiling Smile Spiritual Light within. It seemed like it wouldn't take long. They could completely extinguish it.
Coincidentally, at this moment, a young cultivator leaped over. Without saying a word, he raised his sword and charged at him.
He couldn't help but be shocked. He hurriedly retreated. After taking a few glances, he recognized that the person was Qing Xuan Sect's Grotto-Heaven's Ji Xiangping. At the same time, the weak Spiritual Light was no longer restrained. It suddenly turned, and Gan Shouting came out with his sword, standing coldly at the side.
Sima Quan smiled playfully and said, "It seems like the two of you were prepared to deal with me. However, if you stood still and didn't move, I would have to spend a lot of effort. Yet, you chose to use your soul to fight with me. How foolish."
Ji Xiangping and Gan Shouting remembered what Huo Xuan had said before. A battle between souls was no small matter. Every word and action, every action would damage one's origin. Thus, they didn't say a word and directly shook their bodies. One of them turned into thousands of Xuan Swords, while the other turned into a bright light. They pressed forward.
Sima Quan saw that the two of them didn't fall for it, so he didn't say anything more. He shook his body and turned into a ferocious demon head. With a roar, he charged forward.
With a rumble, the Sword Qi and light were smashed into pieces by the demon head. However, in the next moment, they gathered again and charged forward again.
All the external images here were formed by the two's Divine Wills. As long as their minds were firm and their souls weren't completely exhausted, they could continue fighting. However, Sima Quan was a Heavenly Demon. This kind of battle was blessed by the heavens. If nothing unexpected happened, the two of them would eventually lose.
At this moment, Huo Xuan descended from the sky and landed in front of the two of them. He watched quietly.
According to the plan, the two of them would hold Sima Quan back and exhaust him as much as possible. Then, he would use the Demon Slaying Technique.
After Ji Xiangping and Gan Shouting fought with Sima Quan for half a day, Gan Shouting suddenly reorganized his spiritual light and retreated into the depths of his sea of consciousness. On the other hand, Ji Xiangping returned to her own body. She opened her eyes and said, "Spiritual Master Huo, the opportunity is here. Hurry up and do it."
Huo Xuan didn't hesitate. He raised two fingers and pointed at the space between Gan Shouting's eyebrows. In an instant, the light of golden fire penetrated it.
The Heavenly Demon and even the most filthy Yin beings were illuminated by the light of the formation. Sima Quan instantly felt as if he was under the scorching sun. It was extremely unbearable. He couldn't be bothered to stare at Gan Shouting anymore. He released a malicious Devil Qi with all his strength.
Huo Xuan instantly felt all kinds of desires and distracting thoughts surging into his mind. However, his mind was firm. It was as if he was looking at the reflection of the moon in the water. He wasn't moved in the slightest. After a while, the various illusions were shattered one by one.
Sima Quan was secretly shocked. The opponent's mana contained the ability to subdue demons. The person who came was obviously not simple. Although he could still hold on for a long time, if this continued, there was a possibility that he would be defeated. With a thought, a face formed from Void Qi suddenly appeared above Gan Shouting's head. It glanced at Huo Xuan. It had never seen Huo Xuan before. It said, "Fellow Daoist, I wonder what happened between us? Why are you making things so difficult for me?"
Huo Xuan didn't say a word. Even his expression didn't change.
Sima Quan saw that words were ineffective and knew that there was no way to resolve the matter peacefully. He snorted and covered up the Void Qi. After a while, a white jade lotus leisurely flew out from within and flew towards Huo Xuan.
Huo Xuan stood motionless. When the lotus was three feet away from him, a ray of light suddenly rose from his robe. At the same time, the Exquisite Jade Seal flew out from his waist and emitted a brilliant ray of light as well.
These two items were the protective magic tools of the Daylight Hall's Side Hall Master. When the two lights intersected, it was as if a door was sealed shut. The white lotus was actually unable to invade. It could only spin continuously outside. However, it couldn't find a place to attack. It could only turn around and land on Ji Xiangping.
When Huo Xuan saw this, he waved his sleeve and the "Thirty-Six Peaks" above his head spun. In an instant, Ji Xiangping disappeared without a trace.
The white lotus paused and spun a few times. It couldn't find Ji Xiangping's whereabouts and couldn't do anything to Huo Xuan. It could only retreat.
When Sima Quan saw that he couldn't hurt his opponent, he couldn't help but feel that something was wrong. There were only two choices at the moment. One was to quickly retreat and wait until he was fully prepared before finding trouble with the two of them. The other was to disregard everything and swallow Gan Shouting's soul.
According to his original plan, his opponent obviously came prepared and had a divine art that could restrain his own. He didn't know what other tricks they had up their sleeves, so he couldn't fight them head-on. However, just as he thought about it, the demonic nature actually stirred again. He couldn't help but be shocked. In order to prevent it from coming out, he could only grit his teeth and stay. He turned around and desperately tore apart the remaining strand of Gan Shouting's soul.
At this moment, in the outside world, Ji Xiangping came to Huo Xuan's side and said, "Perfected One, how is it? Are you confident that you can get rid of this demon?"
Huo Xuan said in a low voice, "This demon is now risking his life to attack Fellow Daoist Gan. It won't be easy to stop it."
Ji Xiangping said, "I'll go and help him."
Huo Xuan shook his head and said, "You can't. Just Now, that white lotus is extremely sinister. If it's used again, Zhenren Ji might not be able to withstand it.
After Ji Xiangping got rid of the knot in his heart, he was no longer as impatient as he usually was. His expression and tone became unusually calm. He thought for a while and said, "My Qing Xuan Sect has a prayer technique. As long as one has enough mana, one can manifest the wish in one's heart. It's just that my cultivation is low and I can't do it yet. However, I can transfer this demon into my body. This way, Fellow Daoist Gan can be safe and I can also resist it for a while."
Huo Xuan couldn't help but be slightly shocked and said, "There's such a technique?"
Although he was polite to Ji and Gan on the surface, he actually didn't think much of them. However, it seemed that they did have some tricks up their sleeves. It was no wonder that they could survive in Dongsheng Continent for so long. If this kind of divine art was used at a crucial moment, it could turn the tide of the battle. Especially at a time like this, it would be even more effective.
Ji Xiangping said, "This technique was passed down by the founding master, but it's not that easy to execute. If Sage Huo agrees, I will immediately start the ritual."
Huo Xuan pondered for a while and said, "This Heavenly Demon is more powerful than I thought. Just Now, Fellow Daoist Ji has already fought a battle and consumed a lot of energy. Even if you transfer it into your body, you might not be able to subdue it in one go."
Ji Xiangping didn't get angry because he rejected the suggestion. Instead, he looked over with an extremely calm gaze and said, "Then what does Sage Huo think?"
Huo Xuan said in a deep voice, "Since you have this technique, why don't you transfer the demon to me?"
Ji Xiangping looked at him for a moment and saw his determined expression. He nodded and sat down cross-legged. After a few breaths, a large silver brush flew out from behind him. The tip of the brush shone brightly. Between the strokes, there were tiny marks that brushed past, as if he was sketching a mysterious script.
Right at this moment, Sima Quan suddenly felt dizzy. When he woke up again, he realized that he had entered another person's sea of consciousness. He didn't know why, but when he turned around to explore, he was surrounded by a sea of fire, and Huo Xuan was sitting in it. He hesitated for a moment, but still rushed forward.
Huo Xuan ignored the changes in his sea of consciousness and made a hand sign. Suddenly, a ray of spiritual essence rushed into the sky and split open the high clouds. He leaped up and swept up the thirty-six peaks. In the blink of an eye, he broke through the high clouds and knocked away the nine layers of clouds. He arrived outside the void. Looking back, he saw the blazing sun in the sky behind him, emitting boundless light.
His face revealed a determined expression. The Heavenly Demon was fond of Yin and feared Yang, but it was also afraid of thunder and fire. Now that he was outside the void and the sun was near, he could borrow the pure Yang fire power to circulate around his body and completely refine it. Even if he was careless, he might get himself killed as well, but he had nothing to fear.
He waved his hand, and immediately, millions of rays of light poured into his body!
