The red moon vanished.
At this mont, Luo Xing, who was fighting Wang Jinhu, his expression changed drastically. He sensed it—Moon God had actually burned her Spirit and life force!
And now, Moon God's aura had completely disappeared. Vanishing along with it was the black mist figure, which could no longer sustain its body's power.
"How could this be? How could this possibly be?"
A trace of disbelief flashed across Luo Xing's numb face. The three of them had experienced battle after battle; they originally thought that coming to the Azure Cloud region to face these weaklings would be an easy slaughter. Even when encountering Wang Jinhu and Daoist Shanchen, they hadn't felt the slightest bit of pressure. But he had never imagined that Moon God would lose her life in the Azure Cloud region!
Seeing Wang Jinhu attack again, a trace of unwillingness flashed briefly in his eyes. He said sullenly, "General Wang of the Azure Dynasty, you are quite impressive. I look forward to fighting you next ti."
"What 'next ti'? Right now! Fight to the death!"
Wang Jinhu's eyes glared wide. He had already sensed the disappearance of the Moon God's aura and the fading of the Li family's ancestor. He even understood that the Li family's ancestor, their trump card, had likely perished together with the Moon God. If the Li family ancestor possessed such determination, why should he, a general of the Dynasty, fear a battle to the death with Luo Xing?
But Luo Xing rely shook his head, paying no more attention to Wang Jinhu. He only murmured, "Soul Duke, this place is unsuitable for further battle; I fear unforeseen complications may arise. Take away."
"Don't even think about escaping!"
Wang Jinhu glared, the power of his laws showing even greater sharpness. The space between heaven and earth filled with spikes ford of gold.
Yet in the distance, the Soul Duke—still battling Daoist Shanchen within the Spirit Realm, having already beaten Daoist Shanchen until he was covered in wounds—sighed. "It can only be this way. It's just unfortunate that I must expend a hundred years of my cultivation base."
As his voice fell, within the Spirit Realm, the souls of nurous experts unexpectedly floated out of his body. These souls spread out, turning into black mist!
In that instant, the spirits of everyone in the Azure Cloud region experienced a mont of daze.
Even Wang Jinhu froze on the spot for a mont.
But in just that blink of an eye, by the ti Wang Jinhu recovered, only the diagram arrays Luo Xing had left behind to block him remained nearby!
The auras of Luo Xing and the Soul Duke were already far away in the direction of the Endless Forest, having traveled a great distance!
Another aura appeared beside him; it was Daoist Shanchen who had arrived. This Daoist Shanchen floated beside Wang Jinhu, unexpectedly only reaching the height of Wang Jinhu's ribs. Perhaps having suffered considerable injuries, Daoist Shanchen's face was pale at this mont. These two figures, one tall and one short, gazed far off towards the Endless Forest, their expressions solemn.
Only the two of them knew just how powerful Luo Xing and the Soul Duke from the Endless Forest truly were.
"You're the general from the Dynasty? Do you know anything about their background? I've cultivated my whole life and never suffered such a major loss." Daoist Shanchen's expression was sowhat unsightly; even as arrogant as he was, he had no choice but to admit the Soul Duke was very strong.
Hearing this.
Wang Jinhu shook his head, seemingly breathing a sigh of relief. "I know nothing at all about these two. The lifespans of the Wu Clan are far longer than us humans. Since the Dynasty was established, there have been ceaseless small battles with the Wu Clan. To be honest, this is only the second ti I've fought a Divinity Transformation stage Wu Clan mber; the opponent I t last ti was rely in the early Divinity Transformation stage. The Wu Clan experts my elders spoke of were nowhere near this formidable. I suspect... over the past hundreds of thousands of years of conflict between the Dynasty and the Wu Clan, the Wu Clan has far from revealed its true strength."
While the two were speaking, cheers from the Azure Cloud region cultivators already rang out from below the border city, yet the mood of the two n remained heavy.
Those cultivators began taking care of the rit City cultivators, taking out dicinal pills to help them recover.
Figure after figure helped the Li family mbers rise into the air.
"Many thanks to General Wang, many thanks to Senior Shanchen."
Li Dalong was being supported by Feng Chunlin. His face was pale, yet he still cupped his hands towards the two experts, "If not for the assistance of you two, I fear today's calamity in Azure Cloud region would not have been averted."
"Hahaha! You're too polite! You must be Li Dalong of the Li family?"
Wang Jinhu put away his twin hamrs and scanned the nurous Li family clansn around. Seeing Li Dalong nod, he said admiringly, "I heard about your deeds long ago. If the Dynasty had more people like you, why would we fear being unable to defeat the Wu Clan? If the Dynasty had more major powers like the Azure Cloud region Li clan and Azure Cloud region itself, why would we worry about the Dynasty not prospering?"
Daoist Shanchen held his head high and puffed out his chest, appearing as if he had defeated the Soul Duke himself. He said proudly, "rely the insignificant Wu Clan. Just happened to run into them and casually drove them away. If they hadn't run so fast, tonight I would definitely have ensured they died without a burial place!"
The mbers of the Li family expressed their imnse gratitude.
Li Yunbing and Li Tianyue had already begun a long discussion with Wang Jinhu, both speaking with incomparable sincerity, their words filled with the frankness of the Li family. Li Tianqi had gathered his elder brother Li Tianyi, along with other Tian-generation brothers and sisters who perennially adventured outside and were full of skills, around Daoist Shanchen. Lotus flowers blood from their mouths as they spoke; it was unknown what they were saying to Daoist Shanchen, but in any case, color gradually returned to the Daoist's pale, injured face, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn upwards.
The group discussed matters as they headed away from the border city.
At the edge of the boundless forest outside the border city, the residual aura of Divinity Transformation laws still lingered. Around it was the terrifying aura left by the power of Yin and Yang, seeming capable of tearing everything apart!
A fissure, about a hundred ters wide, cut through the Endless Forest, flattening all vegetation, appearing as if a scar had been torn into the forest's edge. The fissure was several ters deep, and many ice fragnts lay scattered on the ground.
Soon after.
The mbers of the Li family and the nurous experts from the border city walked to the end of this fissure. There, on the ground in the distance, lay the figure of a woman.
Moon God Bai Yue!
The group approached, looking down from above at this powerful existence who, just before, had been high and mighty, despising everything in the Azure Cloud region.
"Sigh."
Wang Jinhu sensed the lingering aura that even he had been sowhat afraid of earlier. Unfortunately, the black mist figure had already disappeared without a trace. He glanced at the expressionless Li family mbers and said with a sigh, "You Li family mbers shouldn't be too heartbroken. Your family's ancestor sacrificed his life for this, but it was all worth it. Your ancestor's spirit in heaven will also be proud of this; after all, he perished together with a Wu Clan Divinity Transformation expert."
"Mm."
Daoist Shanchen also offered solemn comfort, "In my life, I have rarely admired others, but I cannot help but express my admiration for your Li family's ancestor."
Although he was locked in fierce combat with the Soul Duke, he could still sense that the Li family's ancestor was rely at the Nascent Soul stage. With such strength and no external protection, forcefully accepting the power of over a hundred thousand people—including nurous Nascent Soul and even peak Nascent Soul experts—the only possible result was death and the dissipation of his soul. Now, not seeing the Li family ancestor's body, he feared the ancestor had been utterly annihilated.
Hearing this, the mbers of the Li family looked at each other. Finally, the Seven Ironclad gritted their teeth, suddenly knelt on the ground clawing at the earth, and let out mournful wails that would break the heart of any listener.
"Ancestor! We, your unfilial descendants, have failed you, old sir!"
The other Li family mbers also lowered their brows and heads, stroking the ancestral spirit tablets held within their robes. The aura of sorrow emanating from them moved onlookers to tears.
"Sigh."
The two great Divinity Transformation experts and the nurous Azure Cloud region experts all sighed repeatedly.
At this mont, beside them, Li Wei, having recovered his senses with difficulty, reappeared again in an intangible state.
"...I'm still fucking alive, you know."
After complaining internally with a dark face, he grinned and decided to let it go. Indeed, he thought to himself, sotis a person is alive, but is already dead.
