After Yi Tian trapped and killed the Butterfly Queen in the Crystalline Powder Butterfly Cave, the situation of the battle suddenly became clear. Even Xiang Donghui didn't expect that the big problem would be dealt with so quickly.
As an important person of the Discipline Department, he naturally had a sense of pride. After glancing around, he immediately increased the amount of spirit energy he sent out.
Deng Ru and Gong Teng beside him naturally received the order. The two of them joined forces and attacked Murong Zhenghong.
Yi Tian knew what he was thinking. This kind of proud person was most afraid of being looked down upon. Soon after, he secretly sent a message to Hua Yuxin, "Come back first. Let them deal with the rest."
Under the pincer attack of four spirit energies, one person suddenly left, but Murong Zhenghong didn't feel the pressure lessen. On the contrary, Xiang Donghui and the other two in front of him suddenly attacked fiercely. For a moment, the situation became even.
After all, the three of them were cultivators of the Discipline Department who had been famous for a long time. They naturally had some trump cards. The reason Murong Zhenghong was able to hold on until now was because of the effects of the Demonic Nascent Pill and the help of his two assistants.
However, Yi Tian faintly felt that something was wrong. The spirit light in the eyes of the two assistants was scattered. It didn't seem like they were controlling their own bodies. It was more like they were controlled by Gu worms. Thus, whenever Murong Zhenghong's main body was about to be attacked, they would receive the attack without hesitation, even if they were injured.
Just as he was thinking about whether or not he should warn Xiang Donghui and the others, he suddenly heard him say sternly, "Murong Zhenghong, you're only relying on the Puppet Gu to fight one against three. It's a pity that the spirit energy of the two attendants beside you is almost exhausted. Just give up."
"I didn't expect you to have such good eyesight. However, don't be happy too early. If it weren't for the fact that my three demon children didn't come back in time, the victor would still be unknown." Murong Zhenghong said, "I still have a move that I haven't used yet. If you want to take my life, let's see if you have the ability."
Saying this, he spat out a blood sword that splashed onto the heads of the two attendants. At the same time, his hands quickly formed a seal. The three of them formed a circle that flashed with a dazzling light.
Xiang Donghui and the others immediately stopped what they were doing and hurriedly put up their defenses. At the same time, their Divine Senses locked onto the other party, wanting to see what kind of trump card she had up her sleeves.
Ten breaths later, the ball of light split into three and disappeared. When the light faded away, there were actually three identical Murong Zhenghong standing in front of him. It was impossible to tell which one was the real body just by using Divine Sense, but the spiritual pressure fluctuations around them were exactly the same in terms of strength and frequency.
Xiang Donghui, who was standing at the front, had an unprecedentedly serious expression on his face. This situation was equivalent to facing three Murong Zhenghong at the same time. After some thought, he called out, "Junior Brother Yi, come and help. We can't delay any longer. Senior Sister Qing is also under a lot of pressure."
Suddenly, the three Murong Zhenghong in front of them shouted in unison, "Let me show you the power of my Heart's Love Gu." Then, the three of them waved their hands at the same time, and three bone whips attacked the people in the cave like black lightning.
The three of them hurriedly raised their Spirit Tools to defend themselves. In such a small space, there was not much space to move around. However, Xiang Donghui and the other two advanced and retreated in an orderly manner. They seemed to be spreading out, but in fact, they were flanking from both sides.
Murong Zhenghong seemed to have become three people, and the power of his magic had multiplied, but in the end, he was still fighting one against many. For the old hands of the Discipline Department, they instantly had a countermeasure.
At this time, Yi Tian, who was far behind them, did not stop to rest. He controlled the vines in his hands to quietly extend them through the surrounding stone walls. He wanted to go around Murong Zhenghong's back and launch a pincer attack.
Suddenly, two consecutive explosions came from the tunnel behind them. Then, the tunnel shook, and many stalactites fell from the ceiling behind them.
Yi Tian was stunned. He was worried about Qing Lianyun's safety. Turning his head, he saw a green shadow fly out of the tunnel and flash to his side. It was Qing Lianyun, who had escaped from the tunnel. However, she was not in good condition. The spiritual pressure around her body was violently fluctuating. It seemed that the explosions just now had a significant effect on her.
She gasped for breath and said, "Three Demon Children. Two of them used secret techniques to forcibly break through my defenses, and one of them forced his way in."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black light shot out from the tunnel and flew straight towards Murong Zhenghong.
In the blink of an eye, it passed through the gaps in the defenses of the three people in front of them and met up with Murong Zhenghong. After the black light dissipated, only a three-foot-tall child was revealed. Murong Zhenghong, who was in the middle, was overjoyed. She patted the Demon Child's head and directly extracted all of its essence.
The child's body seemed to be suffocating. All of its flesh and blood was sucked out, leaving only an empty skin that fell powerlessly. At this moment, Murong Zhenghong divided the essence in her hand into three and gave it to the other two. After the three of them consumed the essence, their auras were greatly boosted.
Yi Tian could feel that Murong Zhenghong's spiritual pressure was stronger than anyone else's. To put it bluntly, if she wanted to force her way out, it would be very difficult to stop her.
Qing Lianyun, who had regained her breath, said with disgust, "Murong Zheng Hou, you raised Demon Children and used Demon Marrow Extraction to feed yourself. Aren't you afraid of divine retribution?"
"Divine retribution can only be withstood if I'm alive. If I die here today, what do I have to be afraid of?" Murong Zhenghong said, "If you didn't kill my other two Demon Children, I'm afraid I would be the one killing you."
"Old witch, don't be so arrogant. You can't leave today no matter what," Deng Ru interrupted.
"Ignorant child, don't you know my current strength? Can't you see that your captain doesn't dare to fight me?" Murong Zhenghong said disdainfully, "If we were outside, I would naturally be afraid of you guys joining forces. But here, the chances of winning are 50-50. Don't think you can win just because you have more people."
Indeed, as she said, the environmental factors limited one's strength. Moreover, they had all been informed beforehand that the biggest difficulty of this capture was to not alert Demon Star Chao Yi in the underground layer. From the looks of it, they weren't completely confident that they could cut off his escape route, so they were still very careful. They were afraid that they would force Demon Star Chao Yi to escape.
Then, Murong Zhenghong took out a black blood blade. It was her spirit weapon, the Flying Star Shuttle. She threw it at Xiang Donghui. After the black demonic light appeared, it was blocked by a golden light. It was Xiang Donghui's spirit weapon, the ruler.
However, it was obvious that Xiang Donghui was suppressed. Deng Ru and Gong Teng were also attacked by the other two.
It was obvious that after absorbing the essence of the Demon Children, Murong Zhenghong's strength had greatly increased. Even though there was only a time limit, it was enough for Xiang Donghui and the other two.
Just as they were about to be suppressed, a gentle golden light came from behind. It was Qing Lianyun. She was using the Vajra Demon Subduing Awl that Yi Tian had made.
Although the golden Buddhist power wasn't as strong as the demonic aura on the demonic blade, the purification power weakened it by 30%, greatly reducing the pressure on Xiang Donghui.
