Yu Qingtan returned to the Bibo Sea Area, killed Kun Ying in the System Space, then tossed its head along with the Identity Jade of Venerable Yu Xuan at the palace gates of the Bibo Kun Clan, and then left using her Innate Divine Power Shadow Clone.
Presumably, once Kunming Haizun discovered that Venerable Yu Xuan, with whom he had made a trade, had fallen, he would no longer co to bother her. As for racial enmity, for such an old immortal, it mattered not at all.
Of course, if he insisted on crossing her, Yu Qingtan was not afraid.
After returning to the Leqing Immortal City, Yu Qingtan found Venerable Shenfeng and told her about what happened to Venerable Yu Xuan, omitting so details, such as how she killed Venerable Yu Xuan.
Yu Qingtan trusted Venerable Shenfeng, also known as Feng Wuyue, quite a bit. Venerable Shenfeng wasn't particularly surprised when she heard about it; she had long beco numb to Qing Tan's monstrous abilities. After all, killing a God Transformation Honorable was no big deal.
In the following days, Venerable Shenfeng conducted a thorough investigation and indeed discovered that the Sea Clan's sea honorables had all retreated to the deep sea, and the Sea Clan's army had also retreated deeper into the ocean.
Thus, Venerable Shenfeng asked Star River True Monarch and others to continue garrisoning Leqing Immortal City, while she, Tianquan Sword Venerable, Mingjing Honored One, and other Divine Transformation Cultivators led elites like Yu Qingtan, Invincible True Monarch, and Xu Fang True Monarch back to Mount Wendao to confront the Demon Race.
On the battlefield against the Demon Race, with the backup from the Cangqiong Sword Sect, Star Moon Sect, The World Academy Southeast Branch, and the Huangs already in place, the Wendao Sect also brought out two middle-grade Dao Artifacts that were part of their sect's heritage: the "Xuanfrost Glazed Tower" and the "Zixiao Flowing Cloud Sword."
The Xuanfrost Glazed Tower, crystal clear in appearance, resembled a delicate tower cast from glazed glass. The tower body flickered with mysterious frost patterns, emanating a cold and profound aura, representing the core of Wendao Sect's Ice Path heritage.
The Zixiao Flowing Cloud Sword was a purple longsword over three feet long. The blade shimred with flowing light, as if it contained endless Zixiao cloud energy. A strand of flowing cloud condensed at the tip of the sword, making the entire sword appear elegant yet sharp, representing the core of Wendao Sect's tal Path heritage.
With the addition of these two middle-grade Dao Artifacts, the Demon Race, although at a disadvantage, could barely maintain their ground.
Now that the Sea Clan had retreated, the balance of the battlefield would be instantly broken with the return of Venerable Shenfeng and several other honorables as well as people like Yu Qingtan.
Indeed, after the return of Yu Qingtan and the others, the battlefield shifted from a strategic defense phase to a stalemate phase.
Yu Qingtan volunteered to garrison Suichuan Immortal City because it had beco the frontline of the battlefield.
Previously, nearly ten million demons had launched a surprise attack on Suichuan Immortal City, led by a fourth-stage mid-Nascent Stage Qingpeng Demon King and three fourth-stage early-stage Demon Kings.
In their eyes, such strength was more than enough to easily take down a small county city guarded only by Golden Core Cultivators.
However, Ouyang Wenjian, the City Lord of Suichuan Immortal City, suddenly unleashed mid-Nascent Stage power, and moreover, he possessed two clones, each with the strength of the Mid-Nascent Stage.
One clone cultivated the Earth Path, and the other the tal Dao. Together, their combined strength was comparable to that of the Late Nascent Stage.
Under Ouyang Wenjian's unexpected assault, the four Demon Kings who ca to attack the city lost two dead and two injured on the spot, which sent the Demon Race's army fleeing in panic.
Subsequently, with the help of the Protective City Formation, Ouyang Wenjian fended off several onslaughts from the Demon Race.
However, several smaller Immortal Cities near Suichuan Immortal City had fallen, turning Suichuan Immortal City into a thorn in the side on the battlefield, subjected to increasingly fierce attacks by the Demon Race.
Sunset Gate, Tianxiang Valley, Tri-Sun Sect, and Wendao Sect all sent Cultivators to reinforce, but there were too many places to defend, and the support was limited, leaving Suichuan Immortal City in grave danger.
Yu Qingtan had grown up cultivating in Suichuan Immortal City from a young age, and after traversing to a different ti, she had also stayed at the Tianxiang Pavilion in Suichuan Immortal City for quite so ti. She had developed a strong attachnt to Suichuan Immortal City, so hearing about its crisis, she imdiately volunteered to co and help without any hesitation.
Soon, Yu Qingtan, accompanied by Jia Siwen, arrived outside of Suichuan Immortal City aboard the Tanxian Ship.
Just in ti, about a dozen Fourth-Grade Demon Kings were leading the demon army in their siege, with City Lord Ouyang Wenjian and several Golden Core cultivators restraining the Fourth-Grade Demon Kings in the sky.
"Fairy Qingtan of Wendao Sect is here, demons, et your demise!"
With Jia Siwen's shout, an ancient-looking oil-paper umbrella appeared in the Fourth-Grade battlefield, spinning around and emitting streams of Five Elents Origin-infused Extinction Divine Light, targeting the Demon Kings.
Yu Qingtan herself suddenly appeared above an early Fourth-Grade Demon King. As she used the Mind Immobilizing Spell, she had already unleashed a Five Elents Extermination Slash.
This early Fourth-Grade Demon King didn't even have a chance to let out a scream before it beca a fallen soul beneath Yu Qingtan's sword. Then, Yu Qingtan used the Five Elents Qiankun Escape to look for her next target.
Within a few short breaths, five early Fourth-Grade Demon Kings had perished, and the Extinction Divine Light emitted by the Five Elents Canglan Umbrella under Artifact Spirit Xiao Wu's control significantly relieved the pressure on Ouyang Wenjian and the others.
Faced with this situation, the demon army chose to retreat. The once mighty demon army now scurried back to the Yunhua Mountain Range in a sorry state, and Yu Qingtan's gaze concentrated on a late Fourth-Grade Qingpeng leading the group.
If she wanted to break through to the Late Nascent Soul Stage, she needed to fulfill the criteria set by the Slaughter Demon Order. So, she flashed towards the Qingpeng Demon King in pursuit.
Although the Qingpeng Demon King was known for its speed, it was no match for Yu Qingtan's Escape Technique. In just ten thousand li, she caught up to it and unleashed another Five Elents Extermination Slash.
The Qingpeng Demon King, having seen how Yu Qingtan had instantaneously killed an early Fourth-Grade Demon King, knew it was no match for her but didn't expect to be outdone in speed. Now it was forced to engage in battle.
It steadied itself and then with a flap of its wings, a bi-color light beam shot out, striking the Five Elents Extermination Slash and surprisingly dissipating it.
"Two-colored Divine Light!" Yu Qingtan noted internally. This was, like the Sky-Rending Eagle, an Innate Divine Ability derived from the Five Colors Divine Light.
Seeing its attack effective, the Qingpeng Demon King flapped its wings again, sending a barrage of green feathers mixed with bi-colored light towards Yu Qingtan.
"So skill, but not much!" Yu Qingtan thought to herself, then subtly executed the Five Elents Qiankun Escape containing the Origin of Ti, Origin of Space, and Origin of the Soul Dao, evading the attack's lock on her and instantly reappearing above the Qingpeng Demon King.
"Spirit Fixation! Five Elents Extermination Slash!"
There were too many witnesses just now, so Yu Qingtan didn't want to reveal too much.
However, here where there were no traces of people or demons, Yu Qingtan directly employed the Origin of Ti, Origin of Space, and Origin of Soul Dao.
The late Fourth-Grade Qingpeng Demon King was also instantaneously killed by Yu Qingtan, after all, even a God Transformation Honorable had been forced to self-destruct from such an attack.
After dealing with the Qingpeng Demon King, Yu Qingtan returned to Suichuan Immortal City, since the other Fourth-Grade Demon Kings had scattered and fled far away, and at this point, even if she pursued, Yu Qingtan could not catch up.
