198: The White-Haired Cultivator Commands the Field; Blood Mist Spreads as the Old Demon Arrives
The intelligence was seriously flawed. Six powerful Demon General from the Devil Cultivator suddenly launched a sneak attack, catching everyone completely off guard.
In addition, there was a Molochara Prince who was in no way inferior to Demon General.
If it weren't for the six Tiandao Sect cultivators who took the brunt of the pressure, the several pseudo-Core Formation cultivators from the Longevity Sect would likely have suffered severe injuries, or even died, in a single encounter.
Even Chen Dengming, if he hadn't been in a state of Unity of Heaven and Man and sensed the danger beforehand, and if he hadn't possessed extraordinary combat power, wouldn't have had a good ending.
Even so, two of the six pseudo-core cultivators from the Tiandao Sect have already been injured.
At this moment, the atmosphere on the Battlefield suddenly became quiet, creating a tense and volatile scene.
The hearts of everyone from the Tiandao Sect and the Longevity Sect sank. They were shocked by this sudden turn of events, which was completely outside the mission intelligence, and various suspicions arose within them.
Even if their own personnel are still ahead in terms of high-end combat power, once this suspicion arises, morale will naturally plummet and distrust will arise between them.
The six Demon General and the Molochara Prince also wore solemn and grave expressions.
The reason they didn't press their advantage was that they were intimidated by the fighting prowess displayed by Qiao Zhaoxian and Chen Dengming.
Devil Cultivator are inherently powerful, and their constant battles often give them an edge over other cultivators of the same level. Even the renowned and valiant Tiandao Sect cultivators can only manage a draw at best.
As a result, the seven of them launched a sneak attack, but only managed to injure two of them.
The attacks of the five men were focused on Qiao Zhaoxian and Chen Dengming, but the two easily deflected them. Only the targets of the other two men's sneak attacks were injured.
This result was far below their expectations; otherwise, if the enemy had lost three of their high-level combatants, the battle would have been much easier.
At this moment, Qiao Zhaoxian had already summoned the Law Treasure Primordial Qi Bracelet, coldly stared at the Molochara Prince and said coldly, "I didn't expect you to hold back and give us such a big surprise."
He simultaneously sent a telepathic message to his two injured Junior Brother behind him, and received a reply that they were unharmed, suffering only minor injuries.
The cultivators of the Tiandao Sect are all Body Cultivation, possessing physical strength extraordinary to ordinary people, making them extremely difficult to inflict serious injuries.
The Molochara Prince wore a faint, cold smile. "When Prince go on tour, it's natural that I wouldn't be completely unprepared. But I really didn't expect that your Eastern Region would send twelve Pseudo-Core Formation cultivators to deal with me, including you, Qiao Zhaoxian. This is quite a mobilization."
At this moment, the sounds of roars and spellcasting from numerous Demon Beasts and Devil Cultivator could be heard from all around.
The atmosphere was heavy.
It could erupt at any moment.
The Molochara remained calm and composed, her gaze suddenly shifting to Chen Dengming, whose white hair fluttered at his temples. She said, "I wonder which sect this fellow Daoist comes from? He is quite formidable."
Several False Core Cultivator from the Tiandao Sect had complicated expressions upon hearing this, but even Shangguan Congliang had to admit that Chen Dengming's combat strength was truly astonishing. Unlike the small group of people who had boasted so much about their abilities, Longevity Sect's true colors were revealed as soon as they engaged in combat.
"I'm afraid now is not the time for communication."
Chen Dengming thought to himself, glancing coldly at the Molochara Prince, not wanting to respond at all.
Just as he was about to send a telepathic message to remind Qiao Zhaoxian, the other party had already sent a telepathic message.
"Junior Brother Chen, the situation is critical and may have changed. There might even be a traitor among us, but I trust you."
This place is no place to linger. We must break out of here quickly. If the opportunity arises, I will launch a surprise attack on the Molochara. Please cooperate accordingly!
As soon as the message ended, Qiao Zhaoxian suddenly let out a deafening roar.
"Situation has changed, evacuate!!"
With this shout, Qiao Zhaoxian unleashed his entire Law Power and Divine Sense.
In an instant, it was as if three blazing suns spread out, causing many Qi Refining Devil Cultivators, Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivator, and Demon Beast around to feel dizzy, and their ready-to-launch attacks were all interrupted.
Almost simultaneously, the Primordial Qi Bracelet shone brightly, expanding and surging, as if it had instantly transformed into a steel wall ten feet high, radiating astonishing power and blocking the attacks launched by a large number of Devil Cultivator and even several Demon General.
Thud!!!
The moment the attack erupted, a terrifying, earth-shattering roar was heard.
The sound was deafening to everyone present, and those who were close by saw stars.
The Primordial Qi Bracelet, struck by the attacks, even vibrated and hummed, creating ripples of sound waves and sending sand and stones flying.
Any Devil Cultivator or Demon Beast that came into contact with them were blasted away, bleeding from all seven orifices.
As Qiao Zhaoxian retreated, blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and his face turned slightly pale.
He single-handedly withstood the attacks of dozens of Devil Cultivators and even several Demon General, and was still able to launch an effective counterattack, demonstrating his unparalleled strength.
"Withdraw!"
The five fake Core Formation cultivators from the Tiandao Sect acted in perfect unison and immediately turned and retreated.
Of the five, four used the Tiandao Square Halberd, a standard magical Law Treasure.
The four halberds emitted a dazzling light, unleashing a powerful offensive force resembling dragons, tortoises, sparrows, and tigers. Like four city walls, they formed the Four Symbols Battle Formation, creating an impenetrable defense that protected everyone inside.
Chen Dengming and the others were also directly protected within the group and subsequently evacuated.
"Kill!"
The group was also quite alert.
At this moment, with cultivators from the Tiandao Sect guarding the outside, they all unhesitatingly cast spells or summon Law Artifact to launch a full-scale attack.
Instantly, the Devil Cultivator and Demon Beast that surged up from all sides like a tidal wave were slaughtered one after another by the fierce attacks, falling down like straws.
The group broke through the encirclement at top speed.
Under this sudden and intense pressure, they surprisingly united in perfect harmony.
The cultivators of the Tiandao Sect truly lived up to their reputation for astonishing combat power; their Four Symbols Battle Formation, composed of four people and four Law Treasure, was sturdy and indestructible.
The four of them blocked all kinds of Technique Method and Demon Beast attacks coming from all directions, creating conditions for Chen Dengming and the others in the formation to cast spells and clear a path.
On the other side, Qiao Zhaoxian out from the crowd, breaking through the encirclement alone. The Primordial Qi Bracelet, like the giant wheel of a chariot, spun and cleared the way, crushing countless Demon Beast into mincemeat.
"Regardless of Qiao Zhaoxian, follow Prince to stop them—Senior Blazing Flame Blood Devil Demon is about to arrive!"
The Molochara Prince's face was grim. He gave the order and charged towards Chen Dengming and the others.
Six Demon General followed closely behind.
None of them were fools. Qiao Zhaoxian's combat strength was evident to all. He could fight and escape, and even Golden Core Great Cultivator might not be able to stop him.
If we get entangled with them, and are not careful, someone on our side could get hurt.
By keeping Chen Dengming and the others occupied, at least they wouldn't be in immediate fatal danger. Even the powerful White-Haired Cultivator only demonstrated strong control and defensive capabilities, which were still far inferior to Qiao Zhaoxian's. This was enough to stall until the Blazing Flame Blood Devil arrived.
"Attack together! I, the Prince, will break through their formation!"
Just as he approached Chen Dengming and the others, the Molochara Prince suddenly waved his hand and instantly summoned a long spear.
The spear was entirely snow-white, with a captivating icy blue spiral pattern emanating from the center of its shaft. Wisps of chilling energy emanated from it, and the spiral pattern resembled a sealed ice dragon.
As soon as the spear appeared, the surrounding Spiritual Qi surged and the temperature plummeted. It was as if wisps of deep blue cold mist were flowing rapidly around the spear tip, and extremely terrifying cold air condensed from the spear tip, freezing into ice.
"Be careful! It might be a mid-tier third-order Law Treasure!"
Yang Zidao was horrified and shouted a warning.
"Nonsense! We saw it!"
Shangguan Congliang shouted angrily.
At this moment, the six Demon General attacked simultaneously, some with Law Treasure weapons and others with their Demon Weapon.
The four defenders immediately faced increased pressure, and the Four Symbols Formation was in grave danger.
The clash of energies exploded with a deafening roar, and the violent flow of Spiritual Qi energy blasted large craters into the ground, temporarily halting the breakout attempt.
The four men could barely hold their own against six opponents, and each of them was so shaken that blood trickled from the corners of their mouths, and their powerful bodies trembled violently.
"Use your Law Treasure to support us!"
Chen Dengming let out a low shout, his arms trembled as if embracing Tai Chi, and he summoned the Soul- Soul Shocking Silk, using the circulation route of his Innate Qi Skill to manipulate it.
With a series of whooshing sounds, thousands of fine threads, like a powerful Gang Qi, swirled around his body in a circular motion, spinning faster and faster, becoming increasingly sharp and powerful, gradually breaking the sound barrier and emitting terrifying sonic booms with astonishing destructive force.
Yang Zidao and He Yingyu also unleashed their respective Law Treasure.
The others, lacking Law Treasure, could only summon their Law Artifact and prepare Technique Method, ready to reinforce and defend at any time.
"Roar!--"
Just then, a deafening Dragon's Roar erupted, accompanied by an astonishing burst of cold air.
The spearhead of the spear in front of the Molochara Prince shone with dazzling light.
Suddenly, a long spear transformed into an ice dragon, baring its fangs and claws as it charged forward.
Instantly, a strong whirlwind arose, causing the air to surge and roar, with a howling wind blowing and a chilling atmosphere pervading the air.
Suddenly, snowflakes the size of a palm appeared in the air, swirling and blurring everyone's vision, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
Shangguan Congliang and three other disciples of the Tiandao Sect were the first to be hit. Under the astonishing cold and the attack of the spear energy, their faces were covered in frost and their movements were sluggish in an instant. They could not even resist the attacks of the six Demon General, and in the blink of an eye, one of them cried out in pain that he was injured.
"Get out of the way! It's our turn!"
At the same time, Chen Dengming's Divine Sense transmitted a message to the four of them.
The four of them retreated without hesitation and in perfect unison.
The spear, transformed into an ice dragon, bared its fangs and five claws and hurtled forward with lightning speed, leaving a layer of frost on the ground and countless tiny ice crystals floating in the air.
They were about to get close to the crowd.
Yang Zidao and He Yingyu unleashed their Law Treasure simultaneously.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted, followed by a dazzling burst of light that shot into the sky.
The surging power, accompanied by icy energy, spread like a raging sea, instantly freezing the ground into a layer of floating ice, with ice shards forming in a crisscross pattern.
The Ice Dragon roared, its two dragon claws were directly shattered by the two Law Treasure, but its momentum was not diminished. It knocked the two Law Treasure aside and charged forward arrogantly.
"Bang!"
Chen Dengming strode forward, his eyes gleaming with a majestic, cold, and dazzling Silver Light; even his hair seemed to radiate a striking silver hue.
The Soul Shocking Silk spinning rapidly around him had almost transformed into a bright silver halo, radiating an astonishingly dangerous aura that drew attention from all directions, causing even the Molochara to change color.
"Not good!"
Several Demon General shouted.
"Go!"
Chen Dengming let out a sharp shout, thrusting both palms forward and unleashing his full power.
Whoosh!
The Law Treasure, the Soul Shocking Silk, spun like a catapult in an instant, shooting out like an incredibly dazzling silver-white beam of light, breaking the speed of sound.
It collided instantly with the ice dragon that shot towards it.
A deafeningly loud bang erupted.
The ice dragon collapsed almost instantly under the blinding silver light, and the spreading cold air froze the surrounding ground, blooming with countless silver flowers.
A long spear appeared in the cold air, and in the next instant, it was grazed by thousands of slightly separated strands of Soul Shocking Silk.
Buzz buzz buzz!--
The Soul Shocking Silk hummed and emitted violent sound waves, which crashed against the Molochara, whose face had changed drastically, as if trying to turn her into a sieve.
"Good!"
Several disciples of the Tiandao Sect couldn't help but cheer loudly.
The six Demon General roared in anger to intercept, but they were all directly shaken away by the incredibly fast and terrifying Soul Shocking Silk, or were completely unable to intercept it.
"Ice Rakshasa!"
The Molochara suddenly made a hand seal, and its entire body emanated an icy chill.
Suddenly, her face turned icy cold. The instant she was struck by the thousands of Soul Shocking Silk, she was shattered into countless snowflakes, swirling and fluttering everywhere, like cotton balls shaking in the air.
However, at that very moment, a dazzling steel bracelet descended from the sky, as if Drawing Ground as Prison, suddenly encircling the swirling snowflakes.
But Qiao Zhaoxian a surprise attack, a square halberd descending from the sky like a black dragon charging straight at the circled layer of snowflakes.
"Molochara!"
"Your Prince!"
The six Demon General greatly alarmed and rushed back to their aid.
"Kill!!"
Chen Dengming strode forward, leading Yang Zidao and the others as they suddenly rushed out.
The Divine Transformation Blade suddenly grew to eight zhang in length, transforming into a thunderbolt as it slashed towards one of the Demon General.
The Demon General back to defend, and was immediately terrified.
He felt the force of this strike was like Mount Tai pressing down on him, the killing intent was icy and frosty, his whole mind trembled and his brain was buzzing, as if he had entered an ice cellar, and a thought flashed through his mind - this White-Haired Cultivator Qiao Zhaoxian of the Tiandao Sect!
The moment the thought crossed his mind, his Demon Weapon trident clashed with a thunderous slash, producing a deafening roar.
The Demon Power on its Demon Weapon was extinguished by the Silver Light in the blade's energy as soon as it erupted.
The halberd snapped in an instant.
A blade of energy, as large as an eight-zhang-long silver river, suddenly slashed down on the Demon General's head!
The blade cleaves like a tiger breaking free of its cage, its combined strikes the most powerful of all. A step forward, a blood-soaked blade, and the enemy is annihilated in an instant.
Boom!!--
The Demon General's entire body exploded into a cloud of blood mist, covering an area several feet in radius. The surging sword energy and the scattered fragments of earth rushed in all directions, instantly killing more than a dozen Devil Cultivator cultivators within the vicinity of the blood mist.
The Tiandao Sect cultivators who followed closely behind, along with Yang Zidao and the others, were all shocked by what they saw. They felt that Chen Dengming, with his sword in hand, covered in blood, and his full head of silver hair, was more impressive than anyone else!
The numerous Devil Cultivators and Demon Beast surging forward like a tide were also terrified, their faces turning ashen, and their momentum halted.
Thump!
At this moment, a violent roar erupted within the area encircled by the aura bracelets, causing the ground to tremble and crack in large patches.
A scream rang out from within the range of the magic bracelet.
Suddenly, at that moment, the sound of wind and thunder came from the horizon, and a blood-red cloud rolled in, radiating an extremely strong and oppressive aura. In an instant, the Sky Dome in a blood-red light.
"Stop!!"
Within the blood-red clouds, a figure as red as a blood-red sun roared, and a powerful and vast wave of Divine Sense highly condensed, like lightning flashing across red silk, piercing through the clouds and flying like fire, instantly attacking Qiao Zhaoxian from afar.
"Blazing Flame Blood Devil!"
Yang Zidao and the others all changed color and turned to look at the sky, their eyes instantly revealing panic.
I was really unlucky enough to run into Golden Core Great Cultivator.
Chen Dengming's expression also became extremely solemn, his eyes filled with Silver Light, and he suddenly raised the Ghost Jade Bracelet in his hand, transmitting his voice to He Yingyu.
"Senior sister, you should leave first, just like last time!"
