He hastily took out several Talismans, applying them to his body, then produced a suit of Silver Armor from between his eyebrows and donned it.
Under the enhancent of the Divine Ape Transformation, the Tide Feather Sword instantly shattered Shentu Deng's defensive shield, piercing through the flickering magical prohibitions of the Talismans and stabbing directly onto the Silver Armor.
The Silver Armor's radiance dimd montarily.
Seizing this opportunity, Shentu Deng began to counterattack. His hands ford a seal, launching purple lightning that transford into a Qilin, gnashing at Xu Xing beside him.
Magic Power Manifestation? Xu Xing frowned slightly at the sight and instantly teleported away from Shentu Deng.
However, a mont later, the Qilin ford from purple lightning still pursued Xu Xing relentlessly.
At this mont, Xu Xing had already distanced himself significantly from Shentu Deng and naturally had no fear of this Spell. He opened his mouth and spat out a gout of fla that transford into a fire dragon to entangle the Qilin.
He, too, was a Primordial Spirit Cultivator of the Fifth Tribulation, possessing so skill in Magic Power Manifestation.
Shortly after, the fire dragon and the Qilin collided and both vanished.
What a pity.
Xu Xing glanced at the Silver Armor on Shentu Deng's body, a hint of displeasure on his face.
If not for Shentu Deng possessing this life-saving mystical treasure just now, his swift ambush would have ended Shentu Deng's life in that single strike.
"Daoist Shentu is indeed formidable. I am no match for you. Farewell," Xu Xing saluted with cupped fists, then waved his sleeve and fled towards the northwest, seemingly not at all reluctant to leave the battlefield.
Even though he had mastered an Immortal Technique, using his clone to deal with an enemy of the sa realm was still too much of a stretch.
Thinking of running away? Shentu Deng sneered coldly and instantly gave chase.
He judged that Xu Xing was already a spent force; after all, the "Demonic Body" was not his original Dao Body and was prone to faltering.
After I catch you, I'll thoroughly interrogate you about that Ape Transformation Secret Technique...
A trace of greed flickered in Shentu Deng's eyes. With his insight, he naturally recognized the value of the Divine Ape Transformation.
One pursued, one fled.
In a flash, the two had already left the Royal Capital of the Grand Moon Dynasty, covering hundreds of miles.
They chased each other to a canyon. Just as Shentu Deng was about to cast another Spell and pursue Xu Xing with all his might, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly retreated.
But it was too late.
In an instant, an array formation appeared on the ground and in the sky of the canyon, with dozens of Array Banners flickering continuously around it.
Shentu Deng froze in mid-air, the light in his eyes instantly vanishing.
The next mont, a youth in a green robe stepped in from outside the array. Just like before, he instantly transford into a green ape, thrusting his sword towards the spot between Shentu Deng's eyebrows.
The mystical treasure was sentient; the Silver Armor imdiately began to protect its master, resisting Xu Xing's Sword Qi.
However, under the enhancent of the Divine Ape Transformation, the Silver Armor's radiance didn't last even a breath before it was pierced, losing its spiritual nature.
A hole appeared between Shentu Deng's eyebrows.
Then, Xu Xing's Magic Power poured into Shentu Deng's body, completely extinguishing his life force.
"Daoist Shentu, what a pity. If you had t a few decades ago, I wouldn't have had any effective ans to deal with you..."
"It's a pity you t the of today."
Xu Xing smiled faintly, took Shentu Deng's Storage Bag, and stripped the half-damaged Silver Armor, a mystical treasure, from Shentu Deng's body.
Once the Divine Ape Transformation, this Immortal Technique, was used, his strength increased exponentially.
His combat power beca comparable to the Half-Step Refining Void Realm.
Without the Divine Ape Transformation, even if the illusion array his main body had set up here had worked, Shentu Deng, under the protection of the mystical treasure, would have regained consciousness within a few breaths. This would not have given Xu Xing any chance for an assassination.
Let alone killing him with a single blow.
But unfortunately, Shentu Deng had underestimated his enemy. He was ignorant of the array formation Xu Xing had already laid here, and even more so of his main body's true strength.
Next... It's Shentu Yuan.
Xu Xing gazed towards the Royal Capital of the Grand Moon Dynasty.
However, he did not head there imdiately but remained to redeploy the array formation, awaiting his next prey.
「On the other side.」
「Royal Capital Battlefield.」
The mont Shentu Deng died, Shentu Yuan, his full brother, sensed it instantly. He stared viciously at Yu Tao and the others, making a decision in a flash.
He slapped his chest, spitting out several mouthfuls of fresh blood, and then executed Blood Escape.
A faint blood-red light streaked across the sky. By the ti Yu Tao and the others recovered, Shentu Yuan had already appeared near an artificial mountain within a residence in the Royal Capital.
"'Holy Envoy, I am willing to hand over the Ten Thousand Evil Stone! I only ask for your protection and for you to kill these Heavenly Saber Sect cultivators...'" he said, having instantly appeared in a cave beneath the artificial mountain, addressing a middle-aged man in a golden robe who sat cross-legged.
"'No need to hand over the Ten Thousand Evil Stone. I'll help you take that step now,' the middle-aged man in the golden robe said indifferently, opening his eyes. 'Once you reach the Refining Void Realm, what are re Primordial Spirit Cultivators?'"
When Shentu Yuan heard this, joy flooded his heart, and even the pain of his brother's death lessened considerably.
However, just as he was wondering how the Holy Envoy intended to act, he saw the Holy Envoy had already drawn close. Then, a massive, bloody maw abruptly appeared before him.
A few breaths later, Shentu Yuan vanished, leaving only the middle-aged man in the golden robe, who was savoring the taste of flesh and blood.
Previously, your spirit was whole and your Magic Power abundant, making it difficult for to strike. Now, thanks to those cultivators from the Heavenly Saber Sect, your Magic Power has been depleted, and your ntal defenses are down... After devouring your flesh and blood, the Refining Void Realm is not far off.
The middle-aged man in the golden robe chuckled softly, then rose and dusted off his clothes.
His aura suddenly surged, elevating him from the Half-Step Refining Void Realm directly to the Refining Void Realm.
At this mont, Yu Tao and the others, using their tracking Secret Technique again, sensed Shentu Yuan's location.
"He's gone?"
Standing before the artificial mountain, Yu Tao frowned, his expression grim. How could a living person vanish into thin air right under his nose?
However, just as he was about to lock onto Shentu Yuan's position again with the tracking Secret Technique, a bloody, semi-withered, scaly claw suddenly pierced through his Dantian.
Before Yu Tao could react, the claw's owner directly stuffed Yu Tao's Primordial Spirit into its mouth and chewed a few tis.
This creature had two heads and four arms. Its left head bore a single horn, and its body was covered in lizard-like scales. Its pupils were purple vertical slits.
"A Demon?"
"Is it a Demon?"
"Run!"
Seeing this, the beautiful woman surnad Diao and the short-haired young man carrying a knife dared not linger. Reacting quickly, they used Blood Escape to flee for their lives.
Although the Day Sky Ocean Region had no Demons, the Heavenly Saber Sect's Scripture Pavilion contained records of their existence. The creature that had just pierced Yu Tao's Dantian with its scaly claw closely resembled the descriptions of Demons in the Heavenly Saber Sect's ancient texts.
Unlike the Human Clan, they were bloodthirsty and brutal.
And each one was imnsely powerful.
This Demon could kill Yu Tao in a single blow. Its strength was self-evident, far beyond what they could resist.
Outside the Royal Capital, the two-headed, four-ard Demon tore the short-haired, knife-wielding young man in half. Its right head gnawed on the remains while its left head spoke, "One of them got away."
"It's fine..." the Demon grinned. Everyone in this small world is a Primordial Spirit Cultivator; there are no Refining Void Immortals. As long as word doesn't get out, they are all my blood food.
The auras of the three from the Heavenly Saber Sect... now only one remains? What happened? Was there so mishap? Including Shentu Yuan's aura, that too has vanished.
Outside the Royal Capital, Xu Xing had been planning to rendezvous with the three from the Heavenly Saber Sect when he noticed that two of the Divine Senses left on the Array Disk had dissipated.
Xu Xing took out Shentu Yuan's Essence Blood and carefully sensed it, finding Shentu Yuan's aura had completely vanished, as if he were dead.
The Royal Capital of the Grand Moon Dynasty must hold a great secret. It's not worth investigating further. I'll retreat and leave as soon as the Jade Void Minor World opens.
After a mont of thought, Xu Xing made his decision. Although the Ten Thousand Evil Stone was precious, his life was more important. With life, there was everything.
He instantly teleported from the canyon where he had killed Shentu Deng, then found another location and used an array formation to create a hidden refuge. He then concealed his aura and awaited the opening of the Spatial Channel.
「Several days later.」
When the ti ca, Xu Xing sensed the location of the Spatial Channel and hurried towards it, leaving the Jade Void Minor World at the first opportunity.
So much cultivation, all for nothing. No wonder the Fire Spirit Sect Elder was reluctant to co to the Jade Void Minor World...
Upon reaching Jade Void Island, Xu Xing looked at the cultivators erging from the Cross-State Teleportation Array and noticed their numbers had considerably dwindled.
Only then did he understand why the Fire Spirit Sect Elder had been unwilling to co to the Jade Void Minor World.
The casualty rate was truly not low.
No matter how beautiful the Courtesans were, or how fine the treasures at the Auction, none of it compared to the safety of remaining within the sect.
"Immortal Diao, Daoist Yu and Daoist Hua—what happened to them?" After waiting a mont, Xu Xing saw the beautiful woman surnad Diao erge and imdiately approached her. "'The Divine Senses they left on the Array Disk have all dissipated.'"
"'It's a Demon...'" the beautiful woman surnad Diao did not use Divine Sense transmission, but spoke aloud, her face etched with horror.
Her words instantly drew everyone's attention.
