Everyone was on high alert.
Few were unaware of the existence of this man-eating old demoness.
The one person in the world who could heavily injure the Yan Emperor at the Half-step Imperial Dao realm was likely just her.
Currently, Chen Jiuyang was exhausted after one move and might not have the strength for another.
The remaining individuals had all been severely wounded by him.
And precisely at this moment, this old demoness appeared!
Chen Jiuyang's expression turned grave as he slowly drew his Yan Sheng Saber, preparing for battle.
Lotus Birth Mother narrowed her eyes, a flicker of apprehension in their depths. This brat had unleashed the Myriad Phenomena of Heaven's Will, and still retained the power of his previous move, Heaven's Will Like a Saber.
At this moment, the brat might still possess a sliver of residual strength.
However, it wouldn't matter much.
Duan Longguang's brows furrowed tightly, blood continuously coughing from his mouth. This was no ordinary injury, but a Dao injury inflicted by the Myriad Phenomena of Heaven's Will. "This old demoness appeared only after we used the Chen Shu token..."
"Heh heh."
Lotus Birth Mother let out a chilling laugh, then turned her gaze to Sakurai Tenyun River of the Land of the Rising Sun. Her deeply wrinkled old face suddenly split open into a gaping maw, and she inhaled sharply.
"Save me!"
Sakurai Tenyun River let out a roar like an aged beast, filled with rage and helplessness.
The remaining individuals had no strength to save him. In the blink of an eye, he was sucked into Lotus Birth Mother's blood-red mouth.
"Crunch—"
Blood splattered from her mouth, like the juice from ordinary fruit.
"Crunch, crunch." The old demoness chewed, her molars grinding bones into powder with a cracking sound. A look of intoxicated relish spread across her face, her expression one of enjoyment:
"The Supreme Emperor of the Land of the Rising Sun, the former Imperial Emperor, this taste is truly excellent, such a force of destiny."
Then, she slowly opened her captivating eyes, her smile both benevolent and ferocious, sending shivers down one's spine:
"Such a feast, normally Grandma can't even see one, but today there are so many. Thank you."
The others wore expressions of sorrow for the fallen, finding it somewhat ironic.
They had come to assassinate Chen Jiuyang, failed to kill him, and were instead heavily wounded by him. They were not killed by Chen Jiuyang, but were now to be devoured by this old demoness.
Truly ironic.
Mu Yunhai stared intently at Lotus Birth Mother: "We are from the Five Great Sacred Lands. How dare you attack us?"
"Not at all."
Lotus Birth Mother chuckled, "In Grandma's eyes, you are all merely sustenance on Grandma's path to immortality."
"Swish, swish, swish!!!"
At this moment, Chen Jiuyang mustered his last ounce of strength, condensing a gilded phoenix-tailed spear, and hurled it towards the sky. A black celestial dragon suddenly appeared, and Chen Jiuyang mounted the dragon's forehead. Following Yan Tianzhi's example, he vanished in the blink of an eye.
"Yan Emperor's Celestial Dragon Breaking City Spear!"
A venomous glint flashed in Lotus Birth Mother's eyes.
"He... indeed still had the strength to use a move..."
The remaining individuals were both shocked and relieved.
Relieved that Chen Jiuyang's final burst of strength was not directed at them, but rather used to escape.
When Chen Jiuyang was at his peak, he could barely kill a heavily injured Lotus Birth Mother. Now, his strength was depleted, and he was temporarily weakened, while this Lotus Birth Mother had recovered at least half her injuries, otherwise, why would she dare to appear?
With Chen Jiuyang, the great enemy, gone, they could focus on figuring out how to survive the old demoness.
It was all about interests...
They hailed from the Five Great Sacred Lands and were all individuals of noble bloodlines. Lotus Birth Mother originated from the forbidden grounds of the Ling Xian Clan. Even if she was protected by the Martial Saint 'Chao Lan' last time, if Lotus Birth Mother dared to devour them, the Five Great Sacred Lands would definitely dispatch their old monsters, temporarily abandoning the war between righteous and demonic factions to focus on attacking the forbidden grounds of the Ling Xian Clan.
Among them, Xia Yunzhui was the son of the Xia Emperor of the Forbidden City.
Now that the Great Emperor Path of the Ten Thousand Races was about to begin, and the Ling Xian Clan had a Martial Saint awaken, if their prodigies were to walk in the mortal world, there would inevitably be a contemporary Daoist lineage to inherit the destiny.
Lotus Birth Mother was naturally not a fool. With Chen Jiuyang fleeing, she was not in a hurry to pursue: "Good child, I'll let you escape for a few steps first, Grandma will be there later..."
She opened her blood-red mouth again and swallowed Dao Tian Xiulang, James, and Solo, leaving Andre and Joshua. These two had powerful backgrounds and could not be easily dealt with; they could be exchanged for greater benefits.
She looked at the people from the Five Great Sacred Lands with a greedy and chilling smile, her expression benevolent: "Good children, if you want to survive, you must show Grandma your sincerity."
Being in a foreign land, this was so humiliating!
If this were in the Dragon Country, would Lotus Birth Mother dare to be so arrogant?
Chen Jiuyang's spear flew directly towards the direction the plane had departed. Weakened, his face was grim: "This old demoness!"
Last time, he had the opportunity to kill her, but was stopped by the Martial Saint of the Ling Xian Clan. This time, when he wanted to kill, he was again intercepted by this old demoness.
A persistent shadow, missing such an opportunity last time.
He could only calculate how to kill this old demoness after advancing to the Imperial Dao realm. For now, he could only suppress his killing intent towards her.
At this moment, he was the old demoness's prey!
However, his mindset was calm, and he maintained his state of unity between man and nature.
Only when the power of Chen Jiuyang's spear was nearing depletion did he finally catch up to the plane that had departed earlier.
Back on the plane, Chen Jiuyang took out several King-grade herbs from his spatial ring and swallowed them, quickly replenishing his previous consumption. The Yuan Dao Scripture's essence was fully circulated, and the two Divine Palaces within his body began to recite scriptures, nourishing Chen Jiuyang's depleted source of power.
"Since this old demoness can track my whereabouts, and my movements are repeatedly exposed, I can't hide for long. Therefore, I might as well contact someone from the sect. It's fine to be completely exposed!"
Chen Jiuyang pondered as he began to scheme: "Although it's a bit unfair to Zhu Zhaoming, I can only sacrifice his opportunities. I'll find a way to compensate him later..."
Zhu Zhaoming was the child of destiny of the Dragon Country's Golden Great Era in this world. From a dissolute young master, he had repeatedly gained opportunities in half a year, his martial cultivation soaring to the Earth Realm, and he was even taken as a disciple by Chen Jiuyang, designated as the Holy Son of the True Demon Sect, which was also due to his destiny and opportunities.
By becoming the Holy Son of the True Demon Sect, he would be qualified to ascend the Ten Thousand Races Blood Seat, open the sacred artifact with the status of Holy Son, and see the Zhong Ming Sea to awaken the ancestor and obtain inheritance.
He recovered some energy and felt the five Divine Treasures as he quickly absorbed the medicinal power of the King-grade herbs. It was estimated that it would take three days to recover to his usual peak state. The consumption of the Myriad Phenomena of Heaven's Will from the Myriad Phenomena of Heaven's Will Arrow was truly immense.
His divine sense surged towards the cockpit: "Lend me a phone."
The Hongmen pilot in the cockpit came out and handed the satellite phone to Chen Jiuyang.
By now, they knew that Chen Jiuyang was a person of noble status and immense power, whose position in their country was like that of the Hongmen leader in the Lighthouse Country, a major figure.
Chen Jiuyang took out his phone and pondered. To delay the exposure of his identity, he could not directly contact his closest confidants.
"Who should I contact to delay the divination time of the Daoist and Buddhist schools?"
