Chapter 320: The Power of the Ninth-Grade Fiend de
Thirty people were restrained by the crimson light, but they could still move, albeit with great difficulty.
In the western part of the battlefield, a golden dragon red fiercely, baring its fangs and ws. Golden energy surged around it, hissing terrifyingly as it came into contact with the crimson light, as if the gold and crimson were in a heated struggle.
The golden dragon was Da Wei Tianlong. Where Da Wei Tianlong''s gazended, the blood sea surged, gradually condensing into a bizarre ''head'' about a hundred meters in diameter. This head, connected to the blood sea, was entirely crimson with countless red veins, appearing extremely grim and terrifying.
"Ao~~~~"
Da Wei Tianlong roared at the blood head.
"Ao~~~~"
The blood head mimicked the roar.
It mirrored Da Wei Tianlong''s dragon roar exactly. While Da Wei Tianlong''s dragon might was directed at the Nether Fiend''s blood head, the blood head roared back at the Emperor Extreme Realm experts behind Da Wei Tianlong.
The mimicked dragon roar unleashed a super sound wave, causing the already fragile protective shields of the Emperor Extreme Realm experts to warp and distort. One expert''s shield crumbled instantly, causing him to fall back in terror. Although he quickly re-established his shield, he had already drifted perilously close to the edge of the blood sea.
With a churn, the blood sea engulfed him instantly. He was reduced to a dry corpse in the blink of an eye, and although his soul attempted to escape, it was soon extinguished by a surge of blood.
Everyone was chilled to the bone. Who would still dare to talk about exterminating the Nether Fiend? At this moment, besides Da Wei Tianlong, who else had the courage to propose such a thing?
It was too terrifying. The Nether Fiend''s growth rate was unbelievably rapid. Now, even Emperor Extreme Realm experts were no match for it. If it continued growing for another six months, who in the world would be its opponent? By then, they might have to contend with the might of the heavens itself.
One Emperor Extreme Realm expert had died so easily? The weight of this realization hung heavily in everyone''s hearts. Only Zhongshan looked regretful.
What a waste! The Nether Fiend doesn''t even absorb souls. Give them to me! What a waste!
However, staying here wasn''t a long-term solution. Gold Cicada had said that Zhongshan would be safe with the Purple Cotton Robe, but Zhongshan didn''t entirely trust Gold Cicada! If the Nether Fiend evolved further, Zhongshan might be fine, but what about Ah Da and Zhi Huo?
A way out had to be found.
What to do?
Zhongshan''s eyes widened as his mental energy surged into his eyes.
With a flip of his hand, he produced arge knife.
Ah Da and Zhi Huo, though tense, were puzzled when they saw Zhongshan take out a small ''third-grade'' knife.
The world through Zhongshan''s eyes fragmented again, revealing countless patterns, with the rules of heaven and earth intermittently appearing.
In a determined direction, Zhongshan swung his knife, sending out a thirty-meter de aura.
Except for Da Wei Tianlong, everyone else was maintaining their protective shields, so Zhongshan''s de light was quite conspicuous.
Everyone looked at Zhongshan. Seeing the short thirty-meter de aura, they were puzzled. With such limited power, what could he hope to achieve?
No one had faith in Zhongshan.
Heaven''s Rule! Tear the Wind!
With a sh, the surrounding air parted, and even the constraining crimson light seemed to waver in the wind.
Ah Da and Zhi Huo were astonished, taking Zhongshan with them as they swiftly moved through the newly opened gap.
In an instant, they teleported to the edge of the Blood Sea.
"There''s an exit!" Everyone''s spirits soared.
Some hesitated to assess the situation further, while others began a difficult trek towards Zhongshan.
The imprisoning crimson light made it tough for the formidable experts of the Imperial Realm to move, but after Zhongshan''s decisive strike, Ada and Zhihu moved with unparalleled speed. It was their only chance.
After the demonic creatures and the Great Dragon of Devastation roared at each other moments ago, they fell into a silent mental standoff, as Ada had predicted!
"Aaaoohhh~~"
Suddenly, both roared loudly, awakening simultaneously.
A zing golden me erupted from the Great Dragon of Devastation, and with a flick of its tail, ten identical incarnations appeared. Its ws tore ferociously at the Blood Sea, but the formless sea mended as quickly as it was torn. Simultaneously, it fiercely counterattacked the Great Dragon and its ten avatars, radiating with red light and engulfing the Great Dragon of Devastation.
"Rip~~"
The terrifying pull of the Blood Sea instantly tore one of the Great Dragon of Devastation''s avatars to shreds, destroying it.
As the Blood Sea surged, the demonic creature grew furious, sending torrents of blood in all directions, striking the experts of the Imperial Realm with destructive force once again.
Standing at the edge of the Blood Sea, the protective shield formed by Ada and Zhihu trembled incessantly; the two had exerted their full strength. However, the bizarre interior of the demonic creature exerted an overpowering force.
Two experts of the Imperial Realm, dignified and mighty, inexplicably turned their gaze towards Zhongshan, a mere Golden Core stage cultivator. Absurdly, their hopes now rested on Zhongshan, whom they had never been able to fathom.
Zhongshan stared ahead; the patterns on the Blood Sea were indeed intricate.
Finally, after several powerful waves crashed, Zhongshan seized his opportunity.
Turning his hand, he raised his broadsword and shed fiercely.
"Demonic Essence Purification! Fourth Stage!"
"Sky Ripper sh!"
Zhongshan exerted all his might, pouring nearly all his spiritual energy into the strike. A lightning bolt shed.
"Ssshhhh~~"
Like tearing through cloth, a massive rift suddenly appeared and began tearing further into the distance.
The demonic creature battling the Great Dragon of Devastation froze abruptly.
The churning Blood Sea around quieted.
"Aaaoohhh~~"
The demonic creature emitted a mournful cry.
The peculiar sound made even the Great Dragon of Devastation pause, as everyone, including those left, looked towards the rift suddenly illuminated by sunlight.
Ada and Zhihu, along with Zhongshan, swiftly dashed out.
Several experts of the Imperial Realm near the edge, upon seeing the ray of sunlight, were so overwhelmed with excitement that tears welled in their eyes. With no other thoughts, they hurriedly rushed out.
Zhongshan emerged, followed by four Imperial Realm experts.
However, the true body of the demonic creature was the Blood Sea itself, a liquid entity! One major wound was insignificant; with a slight swirl, the rift vanished.
The remaining Imperial Realm experts who hadn''t made it out couldn''t help but feel the urge to vomit blood. They had finally glimpsed a glimmer of hope, only to see it disappear again?
The Great Dragon of Devastation and its avatars continued to frantically tear and strike within the demonic creature''s body.
Zhongshan had emerged, followed by four Imperial Realm experts.
Far on the outskirts of the Twin ins, observers were puzzled by the sudden appearance of several powerful figures.
"Lucky indeed!" muttered Xiao Wang, in a remote valley far away, a hint of impatience shing in his eyes.
Inside a tavern on the Twin ins, Bai Ye continued drinking, seemingly unaffected by the emergence of these individuals. He waited patiently.
After emerging, Ada and Zhihu swiftly flew towards a distant mountain peak with Zhongshan in tow. Zhongshan inspected hisrge de with concern; it had almost crumbled under full force. The quality of the de was too inadequate.
Putting away the de, he focused his mental power back into his forehead and took a deep breath. Meanwhile, the four Imperial Realm experts who had emerged with Zhongshan quickly dispersed in different directions, fleeing far away. It was too terrifying—were they still nning to eradicate the demonic creature? They might as well perish!
"Sir, we owe you our lives!" Ada expressed deep gratitude, his eyes filled with wonder.
Ada could discern the power of Zhongshan''s strike—it wielded the might of the Yuan Ying stage. But why? How could Zhongshan achieve what their Imperial Realm des could not? Could it be that the demonic creature intentionally eased its defenses?
"Hmm," nodded Zhongshan without borating further, his gaze fixed on the distance.
As for how he managed to break through, it was because Zhongshan''s strike was fundamentally different from others''. Zhongshan''s ''Sky Ripper sh'' could be considered a ''Dao'' in strict terms.
The demonic creature''s Blood Sea was immensely vast, with a diameter of at least a hundred thousand meters. It curled up like a gigantic jelly, faintly trembling but no longer moving.
With just this one demonic creature coiled there, who dared to provoke it?
Everyone knew the Great Dragon of Devastation was still inside battling. Otherwise, the demonic creature would have already surged towards either Moonlight City or Moon Scant City.
Everyone awaited the oue.
This wait continued until dusk.
No one grew impatient because it was the demonic creature; if it emerged victorious, it would mean it would soon attain unparalleled power. Apart from the Heavenly Dynasty''s efforts to besiege it, even an imperial dynasty would be helpless against it! If the demonic creature lost, everyone naturally expected to share in the spoils of merit!
Just as everyone patiently awaited, a figure suddenly appeared in the distant sky. d in golden robes with a ck longsword strapped to his back, he slowly flew towards the vicinity of the demonic creature.
"Sir, it''s Bai Ye!" immediately eximed Ada.
Indeed, it was Bai Ye. Bai Ye approached near the demonic creature.
Many people around didn''t recognize Bai Ye and wondered who this person was, daring to act so recklessly. Were they seeking death?
Bai Ye halted in the high altitude not far from the demonic creature, smiling faintly.
The demonic creature seemed to sense the threat and slowly revealed another blood head from its exterior, emitting a thunderous roar towards Bai Ye.
"Aaaoohhh~~"
With a roar, the blood head attempted to intimidate Bai Ye!
Bai Ye''s expression turned cold. His right hand gripped the hilt, the de trembled slightly, and then he fiercely shed towards the demonic creature, spanning a great distance.
There was no sword energy, no terrifying aura, just a in strike. From where Zhongshan stood, he could clearly see what that strike entailed.
With one sh, a pitch-ck barrier suddenly appeared between heaven and earth, slicing the demonic creature cleanly in half.
Subtle yet terrifying. It was as if a rift had cut through the entire world.
Was this the power of the Ninth Rank Sinister de? Everyone watching gasped in awe; this was truly peerless strength, horrifying and unparalleled.
Witnessing this scene was like witnessing a myth—too formidable.
Those who had mocked Bai Ye before now fell silent. Indeed, everyone seemed stunned.
Such a horrifying strike was beyond belief.
