Indeed, a downward plunge!
The secret realm that had hung in the sky above the Shenqi world just days ago remained in its position when they looked, but now, it was clearly moving from spatial rifts into the Shenqi world at a location undetectable even by them, Mahayana cultivators. If they hadn't noticed this, allowing it to continue, within a month, the entire center of the Shenqi world would be invaded and even pierced through by the Huanyu Secret Realm!
Bai Shengyi's gaze landed with a smile on the approaching figure shrouded in black mist not far away, and she swung her sword again. "Old man, look, your human form is getting shorter." Her clear laughter, like tinkling bells, carried words that could have infuriated the already deceased Ao Ming Demon Lord to the point of death again! Why was his Nascent Soul formed human form shrinking? It was because Bai Shengyi's sword had just gravely wounded him again! How could this woman be so sharp-tongued! Yet, he forgot that he was the one who had first hurled insults like "whore," and Bai Shengyi was merely returning his own words to him.
Bai Shengyi's gaze deepened slightly, wishing to end the fight quickly. She swung her long sword, gathering the surging spiritual energy scattered throughout heaven and earth, condensing it into a crystal-clear flower at the tip of her blade. "Spring Swan Third Sword, Boundless!" The flower instantly bloomed, emitting vast and pure spiritual energy, enveloped by blazing spiritual fire! Time is boundless, and cycles repeat! The moment Ao Ming Daojun touched the edge of that petal, he saw his spiritual power rapidly disappear, crackling as if being roasted and smoking! "What did you do?" he exclaimed, eyes wide with shock, attempting to withdraw his hand and flee quickly, only to realize it was too late!
Another sword light had, at some unknown time, tightly surrounded him. The red-clothed female cultivator before him parted her lips, uttering two words that unveiled a nightmare: "Heaven Sever!" Heaven can be severed, so why not a cultivator? This seemingly more casual sword strike, drifting lightly, pierced the center of his entire infant body as easily as slicing tofu! "Boom!" With an explosion, the sky whipped up a gale, and rain filled with spiritual energy poured down. The fall of a Mahayana cultivator, the return of spiritual energy to the earth, would cause all of heaven and earth to manifest anomalies.
Following this, Qian Ying, the Sect Master of Xuanyou, Lin Qingyu, and Yue Bufan, who were not far away, all accelerated their movements. In mere moments, three more Mahayana cultivators fell consecutively, while one Mahayana cultivator was fortunately rescued. When Yue Ling and Wu Du arrived, they witnessed such a scene. A familiar figure flew backward out of the fray, and Wu Du reached out to catch him. "Senior Wu Du, cough cough..." The Mahayana cultivator rescued by Wu Du looked at him with immense gratitude, but as he spoke, he coughed and spat blood uncontrollably. However, he didn't stop, urgently stammering, "Senior, Lord Ao Ming has been killed. These righteous cultivators were prepared and used the Huanyu Secret Realm against us. Our strength is no match, we should leave quickly!" As the saying goes, where there is life, there is hope!
"Heh, do you think this place is the Far West, where you can come and go as you please?" The beautiful phoenix in the sky, in mid-air, spun around and transformed into a graceful and alluring demonic man, his face displaying undisguised rage. "Maliciously transforming sacred beasts into demonic beasts, wreaking havoc upon the Shenqi world, committing all sorts of heinous acts, they deserve to die!" If Bai Shengyi and others felt anger and pity for the transformed spirit beasts, then Lin Qingyu was filled with furious rage and hatred for this act. The survival space for spirit beasts had already greatly diminished due to certain humans, and now the demonic cultivators were acting like this, showing utter disregard for the Thousand Demon Pavilion.
"Kill!" A clear, sharp cry, and a fierce phoenix feather was thrown from Lin Qingyu's hand, instantly slicing through the sky and piercing directly into the forehead of that Mahayana cultivator, exploding his entire sea of consciousness and dan tian! Another Mahayana cultivator, fallen! Wu Du watched as the demonic cultivator he had just saved was torn to pieces before his eyes. Whether it was fear or anger that filled his chest, he roared, "Presumptuous!" He waved his sleeve, and his aura began to ascend continuously. "Rumble..." The Heavenly Dao seemed to sense something, and thunderclouds gathered in the sky, but the sound of thunder soon dissipated. Yet, Wu Du's aura continued to increase, even forcing Lin Qingyu to sway. "Spiritual Light Realm?" "Another Spiritual Light Realm?" Qian Ying, transformed into human form not far away, questioned with fiery eyes, "Where did Liu Tianyun get such ability to cultivate so many Spiritual Light Realm cultivators? And conceal it from the Heavenly Dao?"
No one could answer her. Bai Shengyi stated gravely, "Regardless of where the ability comes from, these malevolent demonic cultivators, if one dares to come, we will kill one; if a pair dares to come, we will kill a pair! We, the spiritual cultivators of Shenqi, will never yield!" Why is the world generally filled with such deep-seated hatred for demonic cultivators? Because unlike spiritual cultivators who cultivate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, demonic cultivators cultivate bloody demonic energy. No, Bai Shengyi would call it demonic obstruction. Demonic obstruction, fused with blood qi, malevolent qi, and evil qi, is extremely fierce and evil, affecting the mind. Unstable cultivators, influenced by demonic obstruction, will amplify their desires and emotions, indulging in the stimulation of various evil deeds.
Yet, the more demonic obstruction they absorb, the more powerful the demonic cultivators become. Consequently, these demonic cultivators indulge themselves even more, becoming increasingly uncontrollable. No demonic cultivator has ever achieved success in the Shenqi world. On one hand, demonic cultivators who practice demonic obstruction are violent, irritable, inherently fond of fighting, and cannot come to a good end. On the other hand, the Heavenly Dao also does not permit such extremely evil individuals to achieve enlightenment. Wu Du, feeling the abundant and vast power within his body, looked down at Bai Shengyi not far away, as if she were an ant. "Given that you are unaware of how truly powerful the Spiritual Light Realm is, I shall not quibble with you. However, you have killed so many Mahayana cultivators of my demonic path; you must pay some price..."
Before the word "price" was even finished, Bai Shengyi's wine was already upon him. "Why so much nonsense!" Bai Shengyi's beautiful features were filled with contemptuous mockery. "What, do you truly believe the Spiritual Light Realm is invincible?" Her sword light was sharp and swift, each move carrying profound rule power. Wu Du, caught off guard, retreated two steps. These two steps were significant because with Qian Ying and Lin Qingyu attacking in succession to support the formation, in just a breath, Wu Du was heavily injured. "Yue Ling!" Wu Du felt that the situation was beyond his control and immediately called for help. Yue Ling, who had been held back by Yue Bufan, heard this, and a clear, ethereal blue light suddenly burst forth, protecting him. Her aura also began to rise rapidly. And judging by the unstoppable momentum, it was even more powerful than Wu Du's before.
