"Junior Uncle, please draw a seal for us!"
Seeing the young man looking at him with a perplexed expression, Elder Qi's face reddened as he gritted his teeth and pleaded.
After witnessing Pavilion Master Xuan Ye's transformation, the desire in his heart was unimaginable.
If Zhang Xuan could draw a seal for them, would they be able to fight against a 7-Dan cultivator despite being at 3-Dan or 4-Dan?
Would they be able to ignore the encirclement of so many demons? Would they be able to kill one of them?
If that was the case, guarding the seal would become a simple task. They wouldn't have to worry about danger anymore.
As for embarrassing themselves... Hehe, while it might be a little uncomfortable for a single person to strip naked, it wouldn't be a problem for a group of people to strip naked!
Who hadn't entered a public bath before?
Even though he had bathed alone as the emperor and sect leader, he had done so many times when he was younger.
"Junior Uncle, please grant us our wish!"
Bai Zhanqing, Mo Qingcheng, and the others pleaded earnestly as well.
Su Yin's lips twitched as he finally understood what was going on. He was rendered speechless.
However, he didn't think that a casual drawing of his would be so powerful. Since these people were so sincere, he didn't mind drawing another one.
"Forget it..."
Shaking his head, Su Yin flicked his wrist, and a brush and ink appeared before him. With a light tap, the tip of the brush moistened.
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was really going to draw, everyone's eyes lit up in agitation.
"No, they must be plotting something. Let's attack together!"
Commander Mingjiang, who was currently being held back by Fei Ting and Xuan Ye, bellowed furiously upon seeing the group of men lying naked on the deck.
If something was out of the ordinary, then it must be a demon!
Not only were these men not intending to stand against them, they were even lying there, waiting to be slaughtered. It would be hard to believe that they weren't plotting something.
"Kill them!"
Hearing Commander Mingjiang's bellow, the Lingyuan Demons on the two warships immediately flew over. There were more than three hundred of them, and even though most of them were at Zongshi realm, their combined fighting prowess was still frightening.
Their appearance caused the surrounding air to become a little chaotic, and a strong gale blew.
If not for Fei Ting stabilizing the flying ship in advance, it would have been blown over by the strong gale.
"You want to cross over? Dream on!"
Knowing that their Junior Uncle was preparing to paint, how could Fei Ting and Xuan Ye allow him to do as he wished? Together with the other hall masters who had already flown out, they used all of their strength to stop him.
Peng peng peng!
Su Yin's side had fewer cultivators than the Giant Devils to begin with. Now, several of their most powerful experts were lying naked on the deck of the ship … they immediately began to show signs of being defeated. They weren't able to hold on for much longer.
"You guys attack, I'll deal with that young man first!"
Demonic Qi surged from Commander Ming River's body. Bone Dragon Spear. "Hu!" He tore through space and instantly arrived behind Fei Ting and the others. Then, he stabbed at Su Yin, who was on the deck.
At this moment, he could also see that all the strange things were on this seemingly ordinary young man who didn't have any cultivation!
These people who had taken off their clothes and were lying down were obviously following his lead.
As long as he killed him, there should be no problem.
Demonic Qi roared, and the Spear Intent surged like a dragon. Even before it reached Zhang Xuan, the immense pressure it exerted caused cracks to appear in the already unstable space.
The fighting prowess of a seventh-dan Heritage cultivator paired with a Spirit weapon at Consummation was simply too powerful. Even Fei Ting would find it difficult to deal with it head-on, let alone the dead Serpentine Dragon.
"Junior Uncle, be careful!"
Bai Zhanqing and the others, who were lying on the ground, saw that Fei Ting didn't stop Zhang Xuan, and their eyes narrowed. They wanted to make a move, but it was already too late.
They hurriedly turned to the young man, only to see Su Yin frowning. It was hard to tell what he was thinking, but it was as if he hadn't noticed the other party's attack.
Their hearts turned cold.
How could Zhang Xuan withstand such a powerful attack without taking precautions?
They weren't the only ones. Fei Ting and the others also felt as if their heads were about to explode. They wanted to rush over, but they were stopped by the countless Giant Devils.
Oblivious to their anxiety, Su Yin wasn't paying attention to the other party at this moment. Instead, the moment he picked up the brush, he felt the spiritual energy he had obtained from the Poison Master Hall. It was just a little bit away from entering his dantian!
Painting, Medicine, Poison Master, Formation, and Sealing. Once the five strands of spiritual energy entered his dantian, he would be able to fuse them together!
Even if he couldn't fuse them with the spiritual energy he had fused previously, the fusion of the five strands would definitely allow his strength to soar by leaps and bounds!
"Just a little bit more …"
Zhang Xuan couldn't help but tighten his grip on the brush.
He was just a few breaths away from the spiritual energy entering his dantian. Only then would he be able to draw the spiritual energy into his dantian. If he were to draw the spiritual energy in advance, wouldn't he cry himself to death?
"Die!"
At this moment, Commander Mingjiang's spear had already appeared before him. The wind howled, and the cracks in the space created by the spear spread out. The moment the high-tier Spirit artifact deck came into contact with the spear, it immediately shattered into dust. It couldn't even hold on for half a breath.
Bai Zhanqing, Mo Qingcheng, and the others felt their scalps tingling. They couldn't control their Zhen Yuan.
It was too strong. Even if they were to join forces, they might not be able to withstand it!
"Hmm?"
Su Yin also felt the pressure, and only then did he react. In order to resist, his Immortal Body automatically resisted, and Saint Qi and True Intent gushed out of his pores.
He was too focused just now, and he didn't expect the other party to rush over. Even if he wanted to dodge now, it would be too late for him to do so with his Grandmaster Ninth Realm cultivation. He raised his arm and raised the brush.
Painting, Formation, Sealing, Wine Tasting, and many other skills appeared in his mind. The Saint Yuan around his body became denser and denser, as if it had transformed into clouds.
His eyes flickered, and the brush fell down, drawing a line in the air.
Hu!
A pitch-black ink mark immediately floated in the air, as if it was printed on the brush. It formed a straight line, floating quietly in the air.
Weng!
The Saint Yuan that had just been born rushed into the ink mark and disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared.
At this moment, the other party's spear had already arrived before Mo Hen.
There was no sound or vibration at all. It was as if the incomparably brilliant attack had fallen into the water, causing not the slightest ripple. It was as if it had fallen into an unknown void, vanishing without a trace.
"This … Break!"
Not expecting his attack to vanish so abruptly, the Ming River Commander narrowed his eyes in shock. With a furious roar, he thrust his spear forward once more.
Hu!
The ink mark was short, and it didn't seem to contain much power. However, for some reason, when the spear arrived before the other party, it felt as if it had entered a spacetime barrier, unable to advance any further. All of his strength was like a stone sinking into the ocean.
An inch forward meant life and death, and an inch away meant the end of the world!
So Close, Yet Worlds Apart, Sealing the Heavens with a Brush!
"Impossible …"
Even though he had exerted all of his strength and pushed his Bone Dragon Spear to its limits, he was still unable to break through the thin line that the other party had casually drawn. The Underworld River Commander felt a little frenzied. The Demonic Qi in his body surged furiously, causing his meridians to tear painfully.
Boom!
A droplet of blood essence flew out from his glabella before exploding in the air. Countless unique patterns surfaced in his eyes, and in the blink of an eye, his cultivation suddenly surged by fifty percent!
"It's the Demonic Blood Blaze Art …" Fei Ting narrowed his eyes in shock.
The Demonic Blood Blaze Art was a way for the Lingyuan Demon to raise its fighting prowess beyond its limits. By burning one's blood essence, one would be able to boost one's fighting prowess for a short period of time.
While it was a huge drain on one's cultivation, and the slightest mistake could result in one's death, it was still an indisputable fact.
If the other party were to execute such a move, would the ink mark that Little Senior Uncle casually drew be broken?
While the Ming River Commander was still in shock, the other party's bone spear had already arrived before the ink mark. The powerful might of the bone spear caused the surrounding space to shatter once more. However, when the bone spear arrived before the ink mark, it was as if it had entered another dimension. Just like before, the shattered space returned to normal, as if it had never existed in the first place.
With a pale face, the Ming River Commander spurted a mouthful of blood.
He had used his full strength and executed the Demonic Blood Blaze Art, but he wasn't even able to break through a single line drawn by the other party. Just what kind of expert was this ordinary-looking young man?
"Fei Ting, your Great Yan Prefecture has gone against our agreement! I'll report this matter to Lord Demon General right now!" the Ming River Commander bellowed.
"Agreement?"
One of the sect leaders asked in bewilderment.
Could there be some kind of agreement between the humans and the Lingyuan Demon Tribe?
"There's an exit for the Lingyuan Demon Tribe in each of the Nine Prefectures of the Dry Origin Continent. Some of them are powerful, while others are weak. The exit of the Great Yan Prefecture is the weakest of the nine prefectures, so the Lingyuan Demon Tribe isn't too powerful. The strongest among them is only a Commander. There are two reasons for this situation. Firstly, it's difficult for the stronger Lingyuan Demon Tribe to pass through the exit. Secondly, it's a tacit understanding between the Lingyuan Demon Tribe and the humans. As long as the stronger Lingyuan Demon Tribe doesn't appear, the balance will be maintained. Otherwise, it'll be a decisive battle! "
Mo Qingcheng seemed to know a little about this. He explained, "And if one side loses the decisive battle, the Lingyuan Demon Tribe will be wiped out. Neither the humans nor the Lingyuan Demon Tribe are prepared, so there's no guarantee that they'll emerge victorious.
"This …"
It was only then that the crowd came to a realization.
"It's precisely due to this tacit understanding that the experts of the Great Yan Prefecture won't lend a helping hand even if they pass by the Lingyuan Demon Tribe. They know that as long as they interfere, the other side will send their experts in droves as well. At that time … it'll only bring about disaster!"
Mo Qingcheng said grimly. "Now that Junior Uncle has made a move, they'll think that the Lingyuan Demon Tribe has sent their experts over. I'm afraid that the Great Yan Prefecture won't be as peaceful as before!"
"What do we do now?"
"There's nothing we can do about it. We have to get through this crisis first. Otherwise, if everyone dies, the rules will be broken!"
Mo Qingcheng shook his head.
In this dangerous situation, they had to think of other solutions. If they were to stick to the rules, the human race would have gone extinct long ago.
While they were chatting with one another, Commander Mingjiang had already relayed the news to the Lingyuan Demon Tribe. He turned to the Lingyuan Demon Tribe and bellowed, "Let's attack together and break through this Lingyuan Demon Tribe!"
"Yes!"
The three hundred Lingyuan Demon Tribe members couldn't be bothered to stop Fei Ting and the others anymore. They made a move simultaneously, and a powerful might gathered together to form a formation in the air.
"This is … the Demonic Skyleap Formation!"
Fei Ting and Xuan Ye's teeth chattered as they hurriedly dodged the attack.
The Demonic Skyleap Formation was similar to the Fusion Sword Formation of the Subjugation Immortal Sect. It allowed cultivators to combine their attacks together to unleash an attack that was several times stronger than their own.
Using the Lingyuan Demon Tribe members as an example, putting aside Lineage realm cultivators, even Eternal 1-dan and 2-dan cultivators wouldn't be able to withstand it!
"Will Junior Uncle's Lingyuan Demon Tribe members be able to withstand it?"
If the Lingyuan Demon Tribe members had executed such an attack as soon as they appeared, putting aside the fact that they wouldn't have been able to withstand it, the entire flying ship might have been blasted into smithereens!
Even though they had many pavilion masters and a dozen or so sect leaders, and they weren't weak when they worked together, they had never used a Fusion Sword Technique before. It wouldn't be a problem if they were to fight one-on-one, but if they were to fight together … they would still be at a disadvantage!
Boom!
Amidst their shock, the might of the Lingyuan Demon Tribe members' combined attacks fell on the Lingyuan Demon Tribe members' Junior Uncle's casual drawing. Shockwaves rippled in all directions, and space was shattered once more. However … they were still unable to advance in the slightest. It was as if the Lingyuan Demon Tribe members' Junior Uncle had divided the Lingyuan Demon Tribe into two worlds.
Exchanging glances with one another, Fei Ting, Xuan Ye, and the others narrowed their eyes in agitation.
They knew that their Junior Uncle was powerful, but they didn't think that he would be so fearsome!
The Lingyuan Demon Tribe members' Junior Uncle had clearly drawn the Lingyuan Demon Tribe members' Junior Uncle. Not only did it leave a mark in the air, even the combined might of the three hundred Lingyuan Demon Tribe members was unable to penetrate it …
Just what kind of cultivation realm did one have to be to achieve such a feat?
"So … what he drew on my body isn't his full strength …" Xuan Ye shook his head.
The Lingyuan Demon Tribe members had thought that the Lingyuan Demon Tribe members' Junior Uncle was already at his limit, but in the end, it turned out that the Lingyuan Demon Tribe was just drawing it for fun!
The Lingyuan Demon Tribe members' Junior Uncle was clearly much stronger than the Lingyuan Demon Tribe members' Junior Uncle.
"Continue!"
While they were shocked, Mingjiang had gone completely berserk. Hearing his command, the three hundred Lingyuan Demon Tribe members charged forward once more. Space continued to explode, but the Lingyuan Demon Tribe members didn't budge at all.
No matter how much strength they exerted, they were unable to destroy it.
Lying on the ground, Bai Zhanqing, Mo Qingcheng, and the others felt a chill run down their spine. They glanced at one another and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Was this … Little Martial Uncle's true strength?
They all turned to look at the young man and saw that he was also frowning as he looked at the sky, puzzled.
At this moment, Su Yin was indeed a little confused.
This was just a line that he casually drew. Was it that powerful?
If he had known that it possessed such might, he would have brought the brush out with him. Even if others wanted to harm him, they would not be able to do so.
Of course, it wasn't usually so powerful. It was because of the crisis just now that he had entered a special state that he was able to draw such powerful ink marks.
"Let's try again …"
Just as Zhang Xuan was about to draw another Taiji Diagram, he suddenly felt a jolt in his dantian. After a few breaths, a few surges of spiritual energy finally entered the Taiji Diagram.
Weng!
The areas for Medicine and Formation Formations lit up once more. At the same time, three new areas opened up, namely Sealing, Poison Master, and Painting!
Painting and Music Dao were very close to each other, Seals and Formation Runes were next to each other, and Poison Master, Physician, and Pill Refinement were next to each other.
"You can let them fuse now …"
Not bothering to study the floating ink marks, Su Yin tapped the brush lightly and filled it with ink once more. Then, he walked up to Elder Qi and looked at him with a grave expression. "Are you sure you want me to draw …"
"Yes!" Elder Qi hurriedly nodded.
"You can do it yourself!"
Taking a deep breath, Su Yin recalled the Art of Painting, and a faint shred of Saint Origin energy surfaced from his body once more.
Elder Qi did not dare to speak nonsense and immediately gathered his flames. Hu! In an instant, the excess hair on his body was charred. Su Yin tapped the brush lightly, and inscriptions immediately appeared on Elder Qi's body.
It did not take long for him to finish drawing, and he walked up to Bai Zhanqing. The latter was already prepared, so Su Yin continued drawing.
Mo Qingcheng, Tan Zhao … In just a few minutes, the bodies of the crowd lying on the ground were filled with inscriptions.
This time, he didn't draw Donkey or the tortoise. Instead, he drew familiar anime characters from his previous life: Naruto, Dragon Ball, One Piece, Detective Conan, Ultraman …
As long as it harnessed the essence of the world, it didn't matter what he drew.
Knowing that he was in the midst of a battle and that there was no time to waste, Zhang Xuan drove his Zongshi 9-dan pinnacle cultivation, and powerful Zhen Yuan flowed through his body at lightning speed.
"Zongshi 9-dan pinnacle?"
Upon seeing this sight, everyone was stunned. Commander Mingjiang, who was leading his men to attack Mo Hen, was also dumbfounded.
Even the combined might of three hundred demons was unable to break through a simple line drawn by a brush … Yet, he was only at Zongshi 9-dan? Even if he wanted to put on an act, couldn't he at least make it more realistic? Could he be any more fake than that?
"Perhaps … Junior Uncle thinks that since a Zongshi 9-dan cultivator is capable of drawing, there's no need for him to exert his cultivation too high …"
Fei Ting pondered for a moment before speaking.
No one knew what was going on, so it was difficult for them to discern the truth.
Hu!
Su Yin's figure came to a halt. After finishing his drawing, he placed the brush back into his storage ring. Looking at his dantian, he saw that he could already control the five surges of spiritual energy.
"Fuse!"
Without any hesitation, Zhang Xuan controlled the surges of spiritual energy to draw them closer to the center of the Taiji Diagram. As soon as they entered, Zhang Xuan's aura rose at a visible rate.
Boom! Boom!
Countless surges of spiritual energy gushed toward him. Due to his frenzied absorption of spiritual energy, the Lingyuan River began to distort.
"Is this … a breakthrough in the heritage? Could he really be at Zongshi 9-dan? "The crowd blinked their eyes in disbelief.
If someone were to tell them that a Zongshi 9-dan cultivator would be able to draw such a powerful seal, they wouldn't believe it even if they were beaten to death. However … the sight of their junior uncle breaking through was no different from a Zongshi 9-dan cultivator.
What in the world was going on?
"The spiritual energy here is too weak …"
Soon, Su Yin noticed that something was amiss. A breakthrough in the heritage realm required a Grade 1 Spirit Vein. Even though the spiritual energy around the river was dense, it was still a distance away from a Grade 1 Spirit Vein. It wasn't sufficient for a breakthrough.
Back then, the reason why Sun Zhao was able to make a breakthrough was because he was once a disciple of the Qingyun Sect and had visited the Blacksmith Hall. On top of that, he had accumulated sufficient spiritual energy for a breakthrough for a hundred years. On the other hand, Su Yin's sudden breakthrough resulted in a huge gap in the quantity and purity of the spiritual energy.
This was also the reason why the two of them refused to give up despite knowing how difficult it was to advance to the Qingyun Sect.
"It seems like … I'll have to enter the river in order to make a breakthrough!"
Spirit veins were formed by spirit gatherers in the Lingyuan River. Since he was able to do so as well, he should be able to make one for himself!
With this in mind, Zhang Xuan moved the spiritual energy out from the center of the Taiji Diagram.
Hu!
The aura of a breakthrough immediately came to a halt. The Taiji Diagram revolved slightly, and Su Yin reverted back to an ordinary cultivator.
He had just finished inscribing the formation and sealing formations, so he could still control the spiritual energy for a period of time. Since the Lingyuan River was about to open, he might as well wait a little longer.
"This …"
Seeing the energy that Zhang Xuan was about to achieve a breakthrough vanish in the next instant, and he reverted back to an ordinary cultivator, the crowd felt as though they were going insane.
They had thought that Zhang Xuan would explode if he didn't make a breakthrough … Yet, in the blink of an eye, it was as though nothing had happened. This didn't make sense at all!
"Most likely … Junior Uncle unintentionally revealed a portion of his cultivation earlier. In our view, it seemed as though he was about to make a breakthrough, but in truth, it was only a fraction of his strength. Otherwise … he wouldn't have been able to control it so easily!"
Fei Ting pondered for a moment before speaking.
The crowd nodded in agreement.
Perhaps this was the only explanation. Otherwise, if it had been anyone else present, even Commander Ming Jiang, they would not have been able to suppress their power and make themselves look no different from an ordinary person in the eyes of others.
From the moment he started inscribing the formation to the moment he concealed his cultivation, Su Yin took less than three minutes. Even so, the three hundred demons led by Commander Mingjiang were still unable to break through the seal.
"Retreat!"
Seeing how Zhang Xuan had drawn out so many figures, no matter how foolish Mingjiang was, it was clear that Xuan Ye's sudden rise in strength had something to do with Zhang Xuan.
"Do you think that you can come and go as you please? Do you think that it'll be that easy?"
Bai Zhanqing, Mo Qingcheng, and the others sneered coldly as they flew over.
With the formation inscribed on their bodies, they charged into the crowd and slaughtered everything in sight.
Luffy, Ultraman, Sun Wukong, Detective Conan … Countless silhouettes appeared, and the crowd of demons fell into chaos.
These fellows didn't bother with encirclement and only targeted a single person. Furthermore, they were so powerful that it didn't take long for more than half of the three hundred demons to perish.
"Damn it …"
Seeing how powerful the Crimson Naked Army was, Commander Mingjiang's eyes widened in anger. With a roar, the Bone Dragon Spear in his hand pierced toward Mo Qingcheng.
Before the tip of the spear could reach Mo Qingcheng, his grip loosened, and the spear disappeared. He hurriedly looked over and saw that the consummation Spirit artifact that had been with him for a long time had appeared before Zhang Xuan. It no longer had the arrogance of a Flood Dragon Spear. Instead, it was shivering like a loach.
On the deck, there was a pile of pots, bowls, ladles, basins, spatulas, and so on.
Seeing that his weapon had been snatched away by the other party, Commander Mingjiang's strength surged wildly. With a roar, he opened his hand and grasped at the spear, "Return!"
Boom!
Dense demonic aura swept toward the spear.
This spear was personally forged by a Flood Dragon that he had slain and nourished with its blood essence day and night. It could be considered a Blood Pact item. Other than him, no one else would be able to use it, let alone refine it.
Thus, even if the other party had used some bizarre means to snatch it away, there was nothing for him to worry about. As long as he activated his bloodline, the spear would return automatically and even injure those who tried to stop him.
Weng!
As soon as the demonic aura fell on the spear, the spear shook slightly and rejected it.
"Hmm?" Commander Mingjiang frowned.
To think that the other party would be able to reject a Blood Pact item … This was something that he had never thought of before. His eyebrows shot up as he reached out for the spear once more.
The spear shook once more, pushing his strength aside.
"Why?"
Commander Mingjiang lost his composure as he reached out for the spear once more. This time, before the demonic aura could reach him, the spear had already shot toward him.
Commander Mingjiang heaved a sigh of relief. He was just about to grab the spear to continue his battle with the naked man when the Bone Dragon Spear suddenly jerked violently and whipped toward him.
Caught off guard, Commander Mingjiang was struck squarely in the head, and he staggered backward as fresh blood spurted from his mouth.
Following which, the other party's furious voice sounded in his ears. "Are you blind? Can't you see that I'm being experimented on? If you continue to spout nonsense, I'll stab you to death! "
After saying those words, "Hu!" He ran back to the young man's side and lay down on the floor, allowing the other party to touch him.
"…" Commander Mingjiang was completely dumbfounded.
What in the world was going on?
It was said that demons were bizarre and unpredictable, but the fellow before him was even more bizarre than that …
That was a Blood Pact weapon! Yet, after the other party touched it a few times, the other party actually made a move on him … Was the other party insane?
To think that he was being experimented on …
This was the first time he had seen someone being experimented on so excitedly!
"What did you do to my spear? Return my spear! "
Commander Mingjiang roared furiously.
Hu! Hu! Hu!
This time, the spear didn't respond. Instead, the pots and pans in the surroundings suddenly flew up and appeared before him.
Huala!
A pot as heavy as a mountain flew toward him. Before Commander Mingjiang could react, he was already beaten black and blue, and he couldn't help but retreat.
Pilipala!
Pots, pans, bowls, and ladles fell to the ground as well.
"This is … a Spirit consummation artifact and an Immortal artifact?"
Commander Mingjiang's vision darkened, and he felt as if he would explode at any moment.
It was only at this moment that he realized that these ordinary-looking weapons were of a higher tier than his Skeletal Dragon Spear.
He was only at Heritage 7-dan, and it was impossible for him to withstand the attacks of so many powerful weapons. Boom! His face was smashed into a meat patty, and many of his bones were fractured.
If not for his powerful cultivation, he would have died on the spot.
On this side, Mo Qingcheng and the others were being ganged up on. They had also killed more than 300 giant devils. At this time, the river not far away began to sway. The rumbling was so loud that it was almost deafening. It was like a giant river was falling from the sky. It was like the Milky Way was crashing down. Even the heavens and earth were unable to withstand it.
Si la!
Space was torn apart, and many cracks appeared in the air.
Fei Ting narrowed his eyes and bellowed, "Hurry up and board the flying ship!"
Everyone no longer cared about fighting as they all landed on the flying ship. Pots, bowls, ladles, and basins no longer cared about beating people up as they returned to Su Yin.
Boom!
As soon as they stood on the deck, a powerful spatial pressure gushed toward them from the direction of the river. It was as if a powerful shockwave had come crashing down on them, causing the flying ship to shake violently. The four metal chains were pulled taut.
It seemed as if the ship would be blown away at any moment.
"Protection Formation!"
Fei Ting bellowed. A formation was activated, and it shrouded the entire flying ship.
Stabilizing himself, Su Yin turned to look at the two flying ships of the giant demons. They didn't have time to anchor, and under the impact of the spatial shockwave, they were shaking violently. Cracks had appeared on their hulls, and they were already on the verge of collapse.
Many of the giant demons who had yet to escape were blown up like ants by the spatial shockwave, unable to put up any resistance.
"It's a pity …" Su Yin sighed in pity.
He was still thinking of getting the other party's ship to replace his wooden ship, but it seemed like he was overthinking it.
Under the impact of the spatial shockwave, even if it could be repaired, it would be crippled.
"The river has appeared …"
Fei Ting's voice sounded.
The crowd raised their heads, and they saw a massive river above the light. Mist shrouded the surface of the river, and the water flowed swiftly. Concentrated spiritual energy gushed out from the river, causing a deafening rumble to echo in the air. Wherever it passed, space would shatter, and even light would distort.
This river that came from nowhere and contained spirit veins and treasures appeared before them once more five years later.
"Kill!"
"Do it!"
At the same time as the river appeared, a furious bellow sounded from the other side of the river. Countless sword qi and sword qi soared into the sky, and following which, there was a feeling of spiritual energy dissipating. Even though they couldn't see it clearly due to the mist, they could clearly sense that a great battle was taking place.
Mo Qingcheng and the others frowned. Even Su Yin couldn't help but feel doubtful.
The humans were all here, and the giant demons were on the other side of the river. Were they fighting against themselves?
"It's a success! Our men have killed the spirit gatherer on the other side!"
Fei Ting's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but laugh heartily. Seeing the confusion in everyone's eyes, he explained, "We were able to fend off the Lingyuan Giant Demons for more than ten thousand years, so we can't possibly be weak. How can we only have so few experts?"
Su Yin was taken aback.
Commander Ming Jiang had sent more than three hundred experts to stop them. Fei Ting and the rest, including the thirteen Sect Leaders, only had about a hundred people. Moreover … where were Fei Gong, the one who had sent out the invitations, Xu Chong, and the other four Grandmasters of Ninth Realm?
They weren't weak either, but they weren't around at all. Something was amiss.
"That's because … many of our experts are hiding on the other side of the river. We can't just let them sneak attack us and not let us sneak attack them! "
It was difficult to cross the river, but before it appeared, it was just an ordinary space, so it wasn't too difficult to cross it.
"Due to our lack of manpower, we had no choice but to invite the sect leaders over. Otherwise, we would have been able to deal with the other party with just the Alliance …"
Fei Ting continued.
If the Alliance could distribute spirit veins to others, how could they not have one as well? With the support of countless resources, each of the Eight Great Halls was stronger than a top-tier sect. How could they only have Tan Zhao, Xuan Ye, Elder Qi, and the others?
Su Yin came to a realization.
Previously, he had felt that something was amiss. If he hadn't made a move, this group of fellows might have been wiped out … In the end, it was just an act to lure the Netherworld River over.
Their methods were brilliant, but their guts … were simply too big!
It would be fine if the sneak attack succeeded, but if it failed and he was wiped out, it would be too late to cry!
Of course, wealth came from danger. Without taking risks, how could one obtain greater gains?
As long as the other party succeeded in killing all the spirit gatherers of the Giant Demon Clan, causing the latter to be unable to collect spirit veins, they would be greatly weakened. It wouldn't be obvious in the short term, but as time passed, they would definitely be no match for the Alliance.
Fei Ting continued, "If it was in the past, I wouldn't have dared to do this, but ever since I learned of Junior Uncle's strength, I had this idea …"
If it was in the past, even if they could kill the spirit gatherers of the other party, they wouldn't be able to escape … Both sides would suffer heavy losses, so naturally, they wouldn't do it.
This time … Junior Uncle was here!
After confirming that the other party's strength was unfathomable, he personally went to invite the other party, hoping that the other party would join him. Yet … this Junior Uncle didn't disappoint.
If not for the formation that he had drawn and the Heaven Sealing Stroke, they might not even have been able to escape, let alone win. They might have all been killed by the Netherworld River.
"I didn't dare to say it in advance for fear that the news would leak out. I hope that Junior Uncle can forgive me …"
Fei Ting walked up to Zhang Xuan and clasped his fist.
"It's fine!" Su Yin shook his head.
To deal with the Lingyuan Demon and save mankind … It didn't matter if he was used by the other party.
"Fei Ting, you'll die a horrible death!"
Upon learning of the matter, the Netherworld River Commander's face paled.
He thought that he would be able to capture or kill the other party if he were to lead the team personally, but who would have thought that he would fall into the other party's trap and suffer heavy losses? Even he himself had nearly lost his life. The losses this time far exceeded the casualties he had suffered in the past hundred years.
"Haha, I'll definitely live longer than you!" Fei Ting chuckled.
"However, there's no need for you to get gleeful. With the recent changes and the loosening of the seal, the Demon General's clone is finally able to descend. Before I came here, I gave the order that if anything were to happen to me, I'm to summon the clone of the Demon General right away … Haha, you might have defeated me, but … all of you will die!"
The Netherworld River Commander said coldly with gritted teeth. Before he could finish his words, fresh blood was already trickling down from his eyes, nose, and mouth, making him look even more sinister and frightening.
"This is bad! It's a sacrificial ritual! Hurry up and stop it! Otherwise … he might really summon the clone of the Demon General!"
Fei Ting narrowed his eyes, and in an instant, he felt as if his heart had been plunged into an ice cavern.
The Demon General was an Eternal realm expert. Even if it was just a clone, its cultivation and fighting prowess far surpassed that of a Heritage 9-dan cultivator!
It was still fine if it appeared on the other side of the river. With Junior Uncle around, it wouldn't be too much of a problem. However, if it appeared on the other side … those who had successfully ambushed the Netherworld River Commander earlier would surely be killed!
If those people were to die, the overall fighting prowess of the alliance would fall by at least seventy percent.
Author's Note: The third volume, 'Sealing the Heavens with a Brush', will be released tomorrow. Why would The Great Demon sell his donkey? Why would he sell his donkey? Please look forward to it!
