For a person like the xiao demon, an extre egoist,the mont anything unexpected occurred, he would begin looking forward and back, growing hesitant and constrained."Xiao Ji, you're disappointing right now. No matter how impressive he is, he's still only Golden Core. Don't forget where the weakness of those who fight above their realm lies!"Mo Ye was deeply frustrated.He and the xiao demon had known each other for a long ti, and working together they had plotted the deaths of who knew how many humans and demons.The xiao demon especially loved to eat prey alive, delighting in the agonized screams they made as they were crushed apart in his jaws.By all rights, he should have been a savage demon who knew no fear, soone who beca only more vicious when cornered."I know. It's just...""Enough. Words are useless now. I'll enter berserk state for the mont!"The xiao demon no longer expected Mo Ye to understand what he was feeling.He had simply been frightened by the unknown terror he sensed.The more he thought about it, the more ashad he felt.He was a great demon who had reached the Nascent Soul Pinnacle.Mo Ye was here watching from the side.What exactly was he so afraid of?Throwing back his head, the xiao demon let out a piercing shriek toward the sky.Bristling mane-like barbs instantly sprouted beneath his steel-black feathers, while his eyes turned blood-red as he pounced straight at Xia Li.In truth, cultivators capable of fighting above their realm had never been rare throughout history.So only sought the transformation in power and lifespan that ca with higher realms.Others advanced step by step, endlessly tempering their foundations, even pushing a realm all the way to completion,all the way to its pinnacle limit.The forr might not equal the latter,but the elevation brought by a breakthrough in realm was no joke either.The fatal weakness of those who fought above their realm was simple:they could not last.No matter how much power they could explode with beyond their current stage, they still had not truly entered the next realm.The power they could sustain remained limited.Faced with the xiao demon's attack, Xia Li acted as though he had not seen it at all, continuing to strike and release the soldiers before him.Only when those twin steel-hard claws, lined with vicious barbs, were about to rake through his skull...did Xia Li suddenly turn his body, lower his stance, and bring Nightcutter across to deflect the xiao demon's claw.He borrowed its force sideways in one smooth motion,then slashed hard and severed several heads at his flank in the sa movent.The xiao demon scread sharply and kept attacking with both claws.But no matter how sharp and savage his offense beca,Xia Li always blocked, redirected, and unloaded the force at the critical instant,borrowing the xiao demon's strength to kill more enemies.Here, the benefits of body refinent finally beca clear.Redirecting force was an exceptionally useful technique,but it required the person receiving the blow to have sufficient strength to first bear that force before transferring it away.If the body could not endure it in the first place, then there was nothing to redirect."So of these techniques look a great deal like the martial sword path..."Mo Ye imdiately controlled the polluted, frenzied soldiers to retreat from Xia Li.He did not want them being cut down by force the xiao demon had given him.Among sword cultivators, there were two great branches.Martial sword cultivators excelled in close combat, training attack, defense, dodging, blocking, bouncing, and redirecting until those techniques entered the bone.They were notoriously difficult to handle.And what Xia Li was showing now looked very much like the martial sword path.Of course, there were ways to counter martial sword cultivators too.The most direct was simply this:drown them in overwhelming numbers of attacks."Xiao Ji, switch to ranged attacks!"After warning the xiao demon to fight at range, Mo Ye also had the soldiers string bows again.But after seeing Xia Li's ability to control gravity, Mo Ye did not have the troops fire at full draw imdiately.Instead, he had them charge their shots.An army made of low-level cultivators might be a rabble,

their cultivation shallow,but what they possessed was numbers.And numbers could win not only through sheer volu, but through relentless, high-frequency attacks.This ti, Mo Ye would not let ten thousand arrows fire at once.He would send them wave after wave,turning the arrow rain into sothing as continuous as the downpour itself.The xiao demon flapped high into the air and then beat both wings, whipping up a horrific gale.He excelled at controlling wind.The gale he blew could strip flesh from bone.The gale arose.But when it reached Xia Li,it suddenly split into two currents and passed around him from both sides,striking soldiers who had not retreated far enough instead.A sixth-generation Heaven Chip was not like a fifth-generation one.It could already exert rudintary control over Xia Li's telekinesis.And when telekinesis was manipulated by the Heaven Chip, it beca incomparably more precise.All it took was a rhombus-shaped telekinetic wall designed to match aerodynamic principles,and the xiao demon's gale could be turned into a weapon for Xia Li's own use."Xiao Ji, don't use wind!"Mo Ye shouted a warning at once.Berserk state was sothing most demons could enter.It let them ignore pain and fear,but the tradeoff was a sluggish mind.They beca driven by fury and instinct.But with soone there to remind them, the side effects of berserk state were greatly reduced.At the very least, they could still follow direct instructions through the last scraps of reason left to them.At Mo Ye's warning, the xiao demon switched styles imdiately.The gale stopped at once,and he spread his wings, shooting out steel feathers in a storm like a rain of daggers.At the sa ti, part of the army also let loose a fresh volley.These arrows, after being charged with spiritual energy, could no longer be so easily deflected by gravity.Xia Li did not move.He simply floated upward into the air while manipulating telekinesis and gravity to form an accelerating gravitational field around himself.Once the steel feathers and arrows ca near Xia Li...they began circling around him,like teors captured by a star.Within that accelerating orbit, the feathers and arrows rapidly gained montum.Once they reached a critical point, Xia Li reflected them outward in every direction.At once...several thousand soldiers were granted release."Stop!"Mo Ye shouted for the xiao demon to halt.Had he still possessed flesh instead of blood-shadow form, cold sweat would probably have been pouring down his forehead by then.Every attack launched at Xia Li was being transford into a weapon for Xia Li's counterattack.At close range, the army posed no threat.At long range, every attack was reflected back.It was as though his great army did not exist at all.And Xia Li was not showing the slightest rcy.He truly had done exactly as he said he would:use the smallest possible cost to wipe out the army,then fight Mo Ye with full force.That could not be allowed.Absolutely not.This could not be permitted to continue.Xia Li had to be worn down.Mo Ye could feel that Xia Li's aura had actually grown stronger than before.After battling for a whole day, he had not only failed to consu much spiritual energy,he had recovered quite a bit.Xia Li definitely had so kind of treasure that stored spiritual energy!And worse still...outside the black blood rain, more and more spectators were arriving, all watching the battlefield from afar.Many were already paying close attention to the battle.Mo Ye could not allow too many of them to witness that it was he who had sacrificed the army for his own advancent.That bla had to be forced onto Xia Li.It had to be Xia Li who had fallen into demonic thods.Xia Li who had used taboo techniques to massacre the army and refine them into blood.Mo Ye himself could live without dignity,but the people above him could not.He had worked too hard to climb from ga piece into half a player.He was not about to be destroyed here.
