Duanmu Lian looked toward Xu Sheng and asked, "Xu Sheng, shall we also leave this place? There are too many Strange Beasts!"
Zhou Qingruo also nodded in agreement, "Yes! With so many Strange Beasts, even with the strength you possess, Xu Sheng, there is a great risk involved in dealing with them!"
After all, the gap between the Saint Realm and Immortal Monarch Realm is huge. A single mistake could cost us our lives, and even if Xu Sheng were to use that power, it might not be possible to bring someone back from the dead!
Of course, the most important thing is that we can obviously leave now; there is absolutely no need to fight!
Hearing this, Xu Sheng chuckled and said, "Qingruo, Miss Lian, I also want to leave, but, these fellows certainly won't let us go easily, the human shields that we are!"
As expected, when those dozens of Clan Elders retreated behind Xu Sheng and others, the looks they gave were filled with a cold chill...
One of the Elders said coldly, "Apologies, young friends! These Strange Beasts will have to be stopped by you!"
Another Elder raised a smile, "You can only blame your bad luck. Let these Strange Beasts have their fill here!"
"To become the scapegoats for us, several Clan Elders, is your honor! Don't be ungrateful!"
"Enjoy the coming despair! Hahahaha!"
As their words fell, as if by some tacit agreement, they all unleashed terrifying waves of Spiritual Power fluctuations...
"Buzz, buzz, buzz~~", a torrent of intense sounds spread unceasingly...
Subsequently, several huge golden barriers emanating a sturdy aura and restrictive Formations rose from the back continuously, forcibly isolating Xu Sheng and the other two on the outside...
Duanmu Lian, who was the first to react, felt a sudden shock in her heart and immediately shouted, "Immortal Rank Martial Arts! Sword Feather Celestial Grace!"
In an instant, Spiritual Power erupted and condensed into numerous dense, sharp sword feathers around her, bombarding the barriers...
When the two collided, loud explosions resounded...
The barriers were violently pierced through by the sword feathers, but due to the numerous Elders on the other side, the damaged barriers were swiftly repaired!
Duanmu Lian, whose full-force strike was unsuccessful, frowned and said angrily, "Damn it! These people are adamant about having us as scapegoats so they can escape!"
Meanwhile, Zhou Qingruo, seeing the Strange Beasts accelerating toward them, urgently reminded, "The Strange Beasts are coming! Xu Sheng, Duanmu Lian, prepare for battle!"
Under the attack of so many Strange Beasts, whether we can successfully survive is unknown!
Upon hearing this, Xu Sheng's expression remained very calm, his dark eyes scanning the other Clan Elders who were showing cruel smiles in the rear...
Then, with a casual wave of his hand, a surge of Divine Power poured out from his body, erupting from him as the center in all directions into a massive Shock Wave, sweeping straight towards those Strange Beasts...
"Bang!!"
A heaven-shaking, earth-shattering sound echoed through the space!
The Strange Beasts that were hit by the Shock Wave seemed as if they had been severely struck, their expressions distorted as they were sent flying backwards in succession, crashing heavily onto the ground...
Duanmu Lian and Zhou Qingruo, staring at this unbelievable scene, both swallowed hard and exclaimed in awe, "So... so powerful!"
When did Xu Sheng become this strong?
To be able to repel beings of the Saint Realm with a flick of his hand, had his strength reached the legendary Emperor Realm?
It's important to note that in the long history of the Cultivation World spanning millions of years, only one person has reached the Emperor Realm!
Even they had never witnessed such a scene, and the Clan Elders behind were even more dumbstruck!
Originally, they had intended to use Xu Sheng and his two companions as human shields, but who could have anticipated that the man before them would send dozens of Strange Beasts retreating with a single strike!
Those were Saint Realm formidable Strange Beasts, not something that could be dealt with so easily!
Thinking of this, a thick sense of dread rose in their hearts as they blurted out, "Wh...What?? This guy can actually send dozens of Saint Realm Strange Beasts flying with a casual strike! Just how strong is he?"
"Damn it! It can't be an illusion, can it? How could there be a man this strong in the Cultivation World!! It's simply unheard of!"
"We've really hit a snag this time, we'd better run for it! If the other party holds us accountable, we stand no chance at all!"
"That's right, once he realizes, it will be too difficult for us to escape!"
After these words slipped out, a touch of hesitation appeared on the faces of each of the Elders...
Immediately after, they resolutely turned to flee the scene...
Duanmu Lian, noticing this scene, hurriedly warned, "Xu Sheng, they're trying to escape!"
Zhou Qingruo's voice was cold as she said, "Even if they want to escape, we can't stop them right now, otherwise, they must taste this despair!"
Xu Sheng responded with a slight smile, reassuringly, "Don't worry, they won't get away!"
He nonchalantly snapped his fingers, and at once, ripples erupted in front of him, instantly enveloping the Clan Elders who were trying to run...
In an instant, their bodies were as if frozen in place, incapable of even the slightest movement!
Realizing that it was Xu Sheng's doing, their faces grew even more terrified...
Having the ability to freeze space at will, wouldn't that mean this man could take their lives effortlessly?
One of the Elders said with a trembling voice, "What! Can't...can't move! What kind of sorcery is this??"
Another Elder's eyes bulged as he exclaimed, "Demon Cultivator! He must be a Demon Cultivator! To be able to wield the power to freeze space!!"
"Damn it! Why can't I break free, what exactly did this guy do!"
"Release us at once!! If you kill us, our Clans will not let you off!"
Having already witnessed Xu Sheng's displayed strength, both Duanmu Lian and Zhou Qingruo were much calmer upon seeing Xu Sheng's ability to freeze space...
Seeing this, Xu Sheng spoke lightly, "Teleport!"
The next moment, the space around them erupted into a daze...
Immediately after, the positions of Xu Sheng's trio and the frozen Elders were switched in an instant...
Duanmu Lian, catching on, exclaimed in shock, "Space... teleport, that's right, if one can casually freeze space, naturally one can also move instantly!"
Zhou Qingruo remained silent, her expression icy as she watched the Elders now cut off by barriers and formations...
Xu Sheng then turned to the Elders with an elegantly gentle smile, softly saying, "Now... it's your turn to play scapegoats for us!"
Once again, he snapped his fingers, and the space that had frozen the Elders abruptly returned to normal...
In that instant, the blood-red gaze of the Strange Beasts immediately shifted onto these Elders before them...
...
