Eternal Life as False Emperor

Chapter 468: Chapter 375: Perilous Escape (Part 2)

If the Nether Spirit Race’s mighty ones really have only this minor ability.

The Nether Spirit Race in the Canglan Realm would probably have been exterminated by humans long ago.

"Bastards! I will tear you all to pieces!" He originally thought it was just a matter of dealing with a few human juniors—it should have been a piece of cake.

Not to mention a few junior disciples, even the leaders of those sects among the Human Race, Huiyue Demon Venerable was not afraid at all.

But he never expected that he had just found these few human kids, and even before making a move, he already suffered a small but noticeable loss.

Although not injured, it left him somewhat embarrassed to deal with.

And this scene was caught clearly by other Nether Spirits who arrived behind him.

This made Huiyue Demon Monarch even more unable to maintain face.

Seeing Lin Feng’s Flying Sword shooting out like a meteor.

The moonlight around Huiyue Demon Venerable surged, clashing with the overwhelming Divine Thought, crushing it completely in an instant.

Enveloped in moonlight, this ruthless Demon Venerable actually seemed somewhat sanctified.

Huiyue Demon Venerable, after crushing the Divine Thought, did not stop and continued to lock on to the departing Flying Sword.

With a grab of his hand, the moonlight condensed into the shape of a sword.

"Die for me!"

The moonlight-condensed Flying Sword, in a breath, had already caught up with Lin Feng’s Deep Cloud Sword.

The Deep Cloud Sword, moving like a flying shuttle, appeared slow as if standing still before this moonlight Flying Sword.

Lin Feng, desperately urging the Deep Cloud Sword, couldn’t care about anything else.

Su Yao could only let out a warning: "Be careful!"

Beyond that, she couldn’t respond in any other way.

Bai Zhirui reacted a bit quicker than Su Yao.

Yet, although she tried hard to use her Cultivation Technique to resist, the speed was simply not enough.

"Chasing down a few young Human Race cultivators, and they dispatch such powerful masters, what exactly does the Nether Spirit Race want to do?"

This thought flashed through Zheng Yi’s mind, but now was not the time to contemplate these; the main task was still to save people.

Having no other choice, Zheng Yi directly used the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror to control its fragments.

"White Lotus Incarnation!"

This Huiyue Demon Venerable is definitely one of the most formidable foes Zheng Yi has encountered in his life.

If his true self were present, he definitely would not be a match for Huiyue Demon Venerable.

But now, with the aid of the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror, Zheng Yi’s strength soared several realms.

Bai Zhirui’s White Lotus Magical Artifact spun out, forming a massive lotus-like illusion in the air, enveloping the three of them within it.

Just as the White Lotus appeared, the moonlight Flying Sword collided with it.

Boom!

The sound was like the ringing of a massive bell, spreading out visibly in all directions.

Within several kilometers, countless birds and beasts were directly shocked to death by the sound.

Even the Nether Spirit cultivators, with a few weaker ones, were shaken to their core.

After suffering such a heavy blow, the virtual image formed by the White Lotus Magical Artifact shattered like pieces of glass.

Bai Zhirui’s face turned pale, spitting a mouthful of blood, and she weakly collapsed.

"Sister Bai, are you okay?" Su Yao caught the falling Bai Zhirui and casually placed an elixir into her mouth.

In such a critical moment, Bai Zhirui trusted Su Yao had no reason to harm her.

She swallowed the elixir in one gulp.

As soon as the elixir entered, it transformed into a warm flow, sending nourishing spiritual power that swiftly flowed into her limbs and bones, soothing her damaged meridians.

The effect of this elixir, though not matching the Harmonizing Pill just given by Su Yao, was certainly a top-grade elixir.

She couldn’t help but feel grateful, thankful that she managed the situation well without truly alienating Su Yao.

Otherwise, the counterpart might not have offered such a great elixir to save her, right?

Meanwhile, Zheng Yi was not in a great state either; his internal organs felt like they were in turmoil. If not for the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror absorbing most of the impact, he might have been critically injured this time.

This encounter further solidified Zheng Yi’s determination to venture into other worlds.

Only in those places could his power advance significantly, rather than getting stuck at his current level.

The Moonflower Flying Sword was blocked momentarily, yet didn’t disperse completely; still, its power evidently dropped a lot.

Lin Feng didn’t miss this opportunity, biting his tongue to spit blood onto his Flying Sword and frantically urging his Sect Secret Technique.

Enveloped in blood, the speed of the Cloud Profound Sword instantly accelerated more than twice, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

The Nether Spirit cultivators did not look pleased.

"Weren’t they saying we were chasing after some minor juniors of the Human Race? How come there’s such a formidable expert?"

Although Huiyue Demon Venerable hadn’t tried his best just now, his ability was still well evident.

Being a whole major realm above the other cultivators, the power gap was nearly crushing.

The earlier move seemed unremarkable, but among the present Nether Spirits, those who could withstand such a move without dying could be counted on one hand.

Yet those young Human Race juniors not only blocked Huiyue Demon Venerable’s enrage attack but also fled using this chance.

Is it possible that among those juniors there are some capable of contending with Huiyue Demon Monarch?

Thinking of this, everyone shivered. If Huiyue Demon Venerable were not around, wouldn’t they all be doomed here?

"We were very likely tricked by the other side’s strategy."

"Those cunning Humans might have known our plan long ago, hence using its countermoves."

"Indeed, otherwise, how could such a powerful expert appear here?"

"Their strength might be significant, but I think he’s at most just at the Peak of Foundation Establishment. At best, possessing some Magical Artifacts unknown to us."

"Those weak Human cultivators have always relied on such Magical Treasures."

"If their strength were truly this formidable, how could the people we sent to ambush them suffer such losses?"

"Yet, our people also got entirely wiped out," immediately hindering the other person’s speech with rebuttal.

"If the other side truly had experts of this calibre, the hidden ambushers couldn’t have failed to transmit any intelligence."

"Encountering such experts, transmitting information would indeed be a feat."

Just as they were about to argue, Huiyue Demon Venerable’s raspy voice interrupted everyone’s chatter.

"Quiet! Or I won’t mind calming my ears a bit."

In an instant, a profound silence enveloped the vicinity, even the sound of breathing became barely detectable.

Everyone understood that Huiyue Demon Venerable’s mood must certainly not be great now.

Offending him inadvertently at such a moment—one can imagine the consequences.

"The reason those Human waste cultivators could withstand my attack is merely relying on the power of Magical Treasures."

"Though that kid resisted my attack, he isn’t doing well himself—if not dead, barely alive."

"Now immediately pursue them, and once you capture those Human cultivators, aside from the White Lotus Magical Artifact which blocked my attack, all else will be rewarded to you."

Despite their terror, the Nether Spirits’ hearts burned with desire; although their race was inherently potent, they were quite inept in refining Magical Artifacts.

In battles against the Human Race, once it came down to artifact duels, the Nether Spirits often suffered the disadvantage.

Most among them were using Magical Artifacts seized from Human cultivators.

By Huiyue Demon Venerable’s nature, regardless of what benefits he obtained, it’d be solely for his gain.

The others, even if discontented, wouldn’t dare utter a word.

Yet now, to capture those Human cultivators, Huiyue Demon Venerable was willing to share the Magical Artifacts, sparking excitement among them.

As for whether Huiyue Demon Venerable might renege, it was never a concern.

This Demon Venerable, despite his greed and petty vindictiveness, being at the level of a Demon Venerable, his word still holds considerable weight.
