The cool and aloof woman's body transformed into a humanoid with a bird's head. As her wings beat, wind and sand surged across the sky, with more than a dozen extraordinarily formidable crystal grains interwoven among them. They struck the Zhu clan members, producing ear-piercing sounds.
The Devil Lord Tongtian had somehow refined another devil saber, its entire body wreathed in black flames. Three eyes adorned the saber. When it slashed out, the three eyes opened one after another, actually making its enemies dizzy and entranced in an instant.
The devil saber immediately transformed into a streak of black air and vanished without a trace. When it reappeared, it had silently circled behind a Zhu clan member. Just as it was about to slice off his head, a purple bamboo that lashed out of thin air knocked the blade askew, causing its fatal slash to land in empty space.
Several flying swords condensed before the Lotus Avatar. Some were elegant and nimble, some bristled with killing intent, and some were utterly domineering... Sword light interwove like pillars. At first glance, each seemed to fight on its own; on a second look, they had shifted into formation in alternation.
The Sword Qi was extraordinarily sharp, while the style of its attacks was strange and difficult to fathom. For a time, it suppressed two Zhu clan members, also drawing frequent sidelong glances from the heavy-browed old man, the cool and aloof woman, and the others. They had seen their share of people who had slipped over from the lower realm. Any guardian immortal who had stayed in Muye for a little longer had more or less slain a few such trespassers.
These few trespassers before them, however, were truly rare. The Devil Lord Tongtian, this devil, was nothing out of the ordinary.
