One of the demon cultivators narrowed his eyes slightly, warning, "Everyone, be careful, this woman is up to something!"
How easily she had killed one of their companions—it was clear her strength was not on the same level as before!
Just a moment ago, they had been firmly suppressing the two of them!
Another demon cultivator, looking at Duanmu Lian's peculiarity, clenched his teeth and said, "And there's another woman, her body is surrounded by faint red patterns, which likely means she's not simple either!"
"What exactly have they done? Why has their strength become so formidable?"
Duanmu Lian coldly stated, "Hmph! Realizing this now is already too late!"
Her bloodline power allowed her strength to greatly increase, to the point where even several Saint Realm experts acting together might not be able to overcome her...
Not to mention these demon cultivators, whose spiritual power had already diminished a great deal!
Zhou Qingruo glanced at her and interrupted, "Lian, stop wasting words on them, swiftly slaughter these pests!"
They were still unsure of Xu Sheng's current situation. Even with that power, facing an Emperor Realm expert could involve unforeseen complications!
Therefore, slaughtering these demon cultivators sooner would allow them to hasten towards the Tian Yin Sect!
The Elder Demon Cultivators opposite them, hearing Zhou Qingruo's disdainful words, all showed angry expressions, exclaiming, "Damn it! To insult us like this, do they think we're soft persimmons?"
"Do they really think they are the only ones who can use secret techniques to enhance their strength? If it weren't for the fact that we usually don't use this move, hmph!"
"It is an honor for these two women to witness this technique before their deaths!"
"Are we going to use that technique? Good! Let these two women realize just how foolish they are!!!"
After speaking, the Elder Demon Cultivators looked at each other and saw the intention in each other's eyes...
Zhou Qingruo coldly shouted, "Nonsense!"
Having said this, she and Duanmu Lian charged toward them...
However, something eerie happened. The Elder Demon Cultivators' bodies emitted dense black auras, which gradually merged into one...
In a blink of an eye, a pulse that made one's heart tingle continuously surged forth...
Duanmu Lian's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, exclaiming, "Damn it! Qingruo, this is that technique!"
If she remembered correctly, this technique could stack their power and force one of the demon cultivators to break through!!
If they allowed him to breakthrough to the Emperor Realm, she and Qingruo would be in grave danger!
Zhou Qingruo, gritting her teeth, immediately ordered, "Stop them!"
But it was already too late. Originating from these Elder Demon Cultivators, a terrifying shock wave began spreading all around...
When it hit Duanmu Lian and the others, it forcefully blasted them away, slamming them hard into the ground...
Struck by that heavy blow, Duanmu Shuo and Zhou Qingruo, feeling tumult in their stomachs, "Puh!" vomited a mouthful of fresh blood...
Immediately after, a dreadful pressuring aura belonging to an Emperor Realm expert blanketed the area...
Following it, came a hoarse voice...
"Hehehe~ Too late, I have already broken through to the Saint Realm! Are you ready to die?"
As he finished speaking, aside from this Emperor Realm demon cultivator, the other Elder Demon Cultivators all fell to the ground, yet, surprisingly, they still clung to some thread of life!
Duanmu Lian and Zhou Qingruo, with their beautiful eyes fixed on the demon cultivator ahead, thought in unison, "This is... troublesome!"
Though both of them had a bloodline enhancement, facing an Emperor Realm adversary seemed somewhat insufficient!
The gap between realms is hard to bridge with external aids!
...
Meanwhile, on the other side, as the Tianyin Sect Master was made a fool of, the Cloud Devouring Beast certainly wouldn't miss the opportunity to strike...
Mocking with a cold laugh, it said, "Old geezer, you call that Emperor Realm strength? You might as well just admit defeat. Maybe, just maybe, in front of your lord here, I'll leave you a whole corpse!"
When you first showed up, how spirited you were, but now you look just like a beggar!
Furious, the Tianyin Sect Master's gaze turned to the Cloud Devouring Beast, "Shut up! An insignificant ant from the Saint Realm, since when do you have the right to speak?"
It was bad enough being ridiculed by that brat, now even this Monster Beast dared to challenge him!
Could he tolerate this?
He could not!
Having said that, he burst forth like a flashing lightning arc in the night sky...
Not the least bit concealing his intense killing intent towards the Cloud Devouring Beast...
And seeing the Tianyin Sect Master charging towards it, the Cloud Devouring Beast suppressed the fear in its heart and mocked him greatly, "Tsk tsk tsk! You can't even handle him at the Immortal Monarch Realm, and you want to fight your lord here? You're not worthy!"
After speaking, it controlled its transformed Monster Beast body and coyly wiggled its backside...
Its goal was to enrage this guy; by doing so, the chances of winning, together with Xu Sheng, were even greater!
The Tianyin Sect Master, his eyes burning with even more fury, roared, "Ahhh! I will kill you! I must kill you!!"
He, the dignified Tianyin Sect Master, even the strongest in this Central State, had never been spoken to like this in his presence!
And today, even a Monster Beast had broken this precedent!!
Only by reducing it to ashes could he feel relief!
Xu Sheng, witnessing this farcical scene, gave a slight smile...
This Cloud Devouring Beast's intelligence, compared to that of humans, was almost indistinguishable!
It even knew to deliberately provoke its opponent, searching for an opening in the process...
But it forgot the most significant problem, which was...
The disparity between the Emperor Realm and the Saint Realm wasn't something that could be bridged with such petty tricks!
As expected, just as the Monster Beast transformed by the Cloud Devouring Beast prepared to attack, the Tianyin Sect Master's speed surged again, reaching it before it could react...
The disparity in their sizes was like that of an elephant and an ant! But that was just in size only!
One could barely discern the Tianyin Sect Master whispering, "Mid-grade Immortal Rank Martial Skill, Xuánmíng Expelling Palm!"
Mysterious and immense repelling force kept pouring into his hands, aimed directly at the Cloud Devouring Beast's thick thighs and bombarded them...
"Boom!!!" A loud noise, and that immense force shattered its sturdy scales instantly, blasting that leg to pieces!
The Cloud Devouring Beast, having lost one of its legs, could no longer maintain its balance and knelt to the ground...
Gazing intently at the Tianyin Sect Master, it said with an ugly expression, "So strong... to shatter my legs with a single strike!"
The power of the Emperor Realm was far more dreadful than it had imagined!
Minimizing the situation with a cold snort, the Tianyin Sect Master said, "Humph! Can't even take a single strike? Then repent for what you just said!"
As soon as he spoke, he leaped onto the head of the Cloud Devouring Beast, his palm charged with terrifying power hammered down directly...
Another violent explosion sounded, and the Monster Beast's head burst open, turning into sparkling particles...
