Si Huaruo activated her Divine Arts, unleashing a chilling aura that froze the water vapor into needles, which rained down like hailstones. Each ice needle possessed the power of a powerful crossbow bolt, instantly creating a hole in the body upon impact.

Using Divine Arts, Liu Qingqing shot an arrow into the air. After it exploded, Spirit Transformation magic array that sent down a dense barrage of arrows.

Chen Shimi wielded three flying swords, combining the power of the three elements, and unleashed a swirling, deadly attack. In terms of power, it surpassed ordinary Sword Control Technique, but the distance was much shorter. Moreover, he avoided vital points during his attacks, at most severing arms rather than killing the target.

In contrast, Si Huaruo and Liu Qingqing had no scruples. Both of them had experienced life and death and were prepared for the worst. They would not show mercy to their enemies. Under the bombardment of their area- Divine Arts, many of the men in black were killed or wounded.

When Yuezheng Yao made her move, the man in red had already considered retreating. The strength of Spirit Transformation was equivalent to Grandmaster in the Barbarian Continent. Even though this Grandmaster's cultivation was still shallow and he lacked combat experience, he had no intention of confronting her head-on. However, turning around and running away was the worst possible option, tantamount to handing over his life and fortune. So he immediately unleashed his evil power again.

"Earth Evil Swallows the Sea!"

The man in red lowered his stance and punched the ground with one fist. The earth suddenly bulged up, as if it had transformed into a ferocious beast, opening its mouth to bite Si Ming.

"What kind of move is this? Is it martial arts or Technique Method?"

The effect was equivalent to Technique Method, but it didn't produce any Spiritual Qi fluctuations. Si Ming was curious, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. He threw a punch and easily smashed the stone beast into dust.

Duan Jinsu cried out in a panic, "This is the Earth Evil Seal! Everyone, watch your step!"

A violent earthquake shook the ground, and dozens of sharp stone pillars emerged, thrusting upwards towards the crowd. Fortunately, having been warned, everyone was prepared and dodged, avoiding being hit.

The man in red didn't care about the outcome. After making his move, he turned and fled, his footwork as swift as a ghost, as fast as ice skating.

Fellow Daoist, please wait.

With a simple push of his feet, without using any lightness skill, Si Ming shot out like a missile, catching up with the man in red in the blink of an eye. He then activated his Mighty Eagle Claw Art and grabbed at the man's back.

Duan Jinsu remembered something else and hurriedly reminded her, "Alliance Leader, be careful. The Ghostly Evil Seal specifically harms the soul and can ignore the body's defenses."

Unfortunately, he was a step too late. The man in red flicked his wrist, and the Yin Qi condensed into a ghostly claw, colliding with Si Ming's eagle claw.

Si Ming suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, as if he had been stabbed hard by some sharp object. His mind was shaken, and he could hardly control his body. Even the strength he exerted was weakened by three points.

If he were facing another martial artist, the man in red could use this opportunity to accelerate his escape, because the opponent would be temporarily dazed by the Ghostly Evil Seal and unable to continue the pursuit, allowing him to easily break away.

However, even with only 70% of his power, Si Ming's divine strength was unparalleled and could not be resisted by any ordinary body.

With a cracking sound, the red-clad man's five fingers were crushed, and he was sent flying by the immense force, crashing into a large tree and coughing up blood.

Si Ming stood there, his head throbbing. Although his brain was not damaged, he was inexplicably in a state of mental pain that prevented him from finishing off the enemy in time.

"Monster!"

Suppressing the pain, the man in red turned to flee, but suddenly a warning signal struck him. He quickly stepped back, and a cold glint of light grazed his chest, tearing his clothes and injuring his skin, leaving a shallow bloodstain.

The one who stopped her was Liu Qingqing. She glanced at the dagger in her hand, seemingly considering whether she should switch to a longer weapon.

When did you get behind me?

The man in red was taken aback, completely unaware of the girl's actions. Upon reflection, he realized that when he used the Earth Evil Swallows the Sea earlier, he hadn't included her in his attack targets and had subconsciously overlooked her.

Without wasting words, Liu Qingqing stepped in, recalling the assassination techniques she had learned in her dream. Her body moved naturally and seamlessly, without any sense of unfamiliarity.

With light steps, her body swayed like a maple leaf, and she swiftly slashed with her short sword at close range, displaying a fluid and graceful movement.

The man in red dared not fight, not because he admitted defeat, but because he feared being held back and delaying the monstrous leader's recovery. Having already taken one claw strike, he really didn't want to take a second.

So he used the three Movement Method contained in the Human Evil Seal: "Living Separation," "Shadow in the Cup," Cunning and Slippery," as if he had become a mudfish, impossible to catch, and with afterimages interfering with his judgment, he avoided the attack and slipped past from the side.

Liu Qingqing instinctively flicked her wrist, as if she had transformed into herself in her dream, possessing top-notch combat awareness. She barely managed to stab the man in red, leaving a bloody hole in his back. Unfortunately, the wound was not deep enough to kill him.

"Sure enough, I need to switch to a longer weapon. It seems I was using a short sword in my dream, twenty centimeters longer than a dagger..."

Before the man in red could even rejoice at having escaped another calamity, he was about to continue his escape when he suddenly heard a whooshing sound. Looking around, he saw a flying sword hurtling towards him. He quickly activated the Earth Evil Seal, absorbing earth energy to form a shield and deflecting the flying sword.

This delay hindered the man in red's movements, and he was also entangled by Liu Qingqing.

"Damn it, this is so persistent!"

What goes around comes around. The man in red, who had been relentlessly pursuing Duan Jinsu and his disciples, is now the one being hunted and unable to escape. Retribution has come swiftly.

Seeing that the leader of the Heavenly Martial Alliance was about to regain consciousness, the man in red could only grit his teeth and fight desperately, enduring Liu Qingqing's knife attack and severely damaging his internal energy.

"The Human Evil Punishment Emperor!"

Intense Evil Qi coalesced into strangely shaped instruments of torture, exuding cruelty, sweeping across the surroundings. Learning from Si Ming's example, Liu Qingqing dared not confront them head-on and quickly withdrew.

The flying sword controlled by Chen Shimi was struck by a torture instrument resembling a blood-dripping guillotine and instantly shattered. Fortunately, he was not using the traditional Sword Control Technique, but rather forcibly releasing his True Qi for remote control. No personal mark was left on the sword, so he would not suffer any backlash.

Just as the man in red was about to escape using the Human Evil Seal's ultimate move, the light suddenly dimmed and a huge shadow enveloped him. Instinctively, a strong sense of fear arose in his heart. When he looked up, he saw a thirty-foot-tall statue of an angry Buddha blocking his way.

"I almost got screwed over by you, you little brat, ruining my reputation."

Si Ming stood on the angry Buddha's shoulder, looking down at him with a gloomy expression.

The man in red roared, fighting like a cornered beast, and unleashed all his evil instruments of torture at the Buddha statue, desperate for a chance to escape.

"Pathetic humans, feel your own powerlessness."

Si Ming activated the form of the wrathful Buddha, his massive body raised its shoulders, and a fierce punch slammed down, as if the sky were collapsing. The unparalleled fist force crashed down, shattering the torture instruments, unstoppable.

Duan Jinsu hurriedly shouted, "Alliance Leader, spare them!"

With a loud bang, the man in red was slammed into the ground by the Furious Buddha's fist. When Si Ming moved the fist, which was larger than a person, away, he saw that the man embedded in the soil was covered in blood and flesh, with no part of him intact. Blood was constantly seeping out of his body, and countless bones were broken.

"Why didn't you say so sooner? I only had time to withdraw seven-tenths of my power, and I don't even know if I'm still alive."

Si Ming jumped into the pit, reached out to check, and found that the other person still had a faint heartbeat. He quickly channeled his True Qi to protect the heart meridian and keep the other person alive.
