In that life-or-death moment, the Ruthless Old Devil felt a chorus of alarm bells in his heart, his mind trembling as he witnessed a massive elbow sweeping down like a bridge across a river.

The sheer size of that elbow surpassed his height and build, creating an overwhelming, suffocating pressure that swept over him.

"What a fierce and ruthless Fighting Longevity Lord!"

At this moment, the distance was so close that there was no time to use magic to evade. The Ruthless Old Devil was in the air, but his body was strangely releasing rolling black Devil Qi.

Almost simultaneously, with a whoosh, the other arm also suddenly detached.

The fist was shrouded in a dark, Devil Qi, its muscles bulging, and it contained a powerful and dense Nascent Soul Power. It slammed into the massive elbow that was sweeping towards it.

Click!

An elbow and a fist collided violently in mid-air, producing a deafening roar.

The intense Spiritual Qi energy stirred up the air, causing the clouds above to swirl and drift, filling the sky with their energy.

Chen Dengming jerked his elbow, and the chilling, eerie green light that was rapidly spreading across his lower body intensified.

The Ruthless Old Devil Tao Tian coughed up a mouthful of blood, feeling an irresistible and extraordinary force that almost shattered his palm. The retracted palm then slammed into his body.

He quickly used the force of Chen Dengming's outburst to retreat. In his Technique Method state, his body, transformed into black mist, absorbed most of the impact, and he was sent flying dozens of feet away.

Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators are indeed powerful. In terms of both quantity and purity, their Nascent Soul Power is likely dozens of times greater than that of Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, the attacks of Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators are indeed unlikely to cause much damage to Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators. Only by using fourth-tier Law Treasure can the gap in this stage be bridged.

However, at this moment, both Chen Dengming and the Ruthless Old Devil Tao Tian were in close combat, vying for Physical Body strength.

In terms of Physical Body strength, even if the Ruthless Old Devil had cultivated the Ruthless Purgatory Technique and refined his hands and body to a level of toughness comparable to a fourth-tier Law Treasure, it would still be difficult for him to contend with the Ancient Human Immortal Physique.

This is because what supports the Ancient Human Immortal Physique is the rich power of the Human Immortal Way Power Nascent Soul Power, which far surpasses the power of the nascent soul.

Although the amount of this power is small, it can burn and condense the ancient body in a very short time, resulting in extremely high burst damage.

"What kind of Dao power does this Fighting Longevity Lord use? Why does his Physical Body strength seem somewhat similar to that of the Sha Star Dongfang Huayuan? It's impossible to fight him hand-to-hand."

As the Ruthless Old Devil retreated, his fierce and venomous triangular eyes shifted rapidly, indicating that he was already considering leaving.

He also knew that Chen Dengming's irrational state could not last long.

However, the situation is critical now. He already has to put in a lot of effort to deal with two Nascent Soul Middle Stage, but he also needs to deal with the even greater threat of Chen Dengming. If this continues, he might accidentally capsize in a ditch. He can't afford to gamble.

"It seems the Three Saints Palace has no backup plan. We've fallen into a trap, and the situation is dire. We should retreat!"

The moment he made his decision, the Ruthless Old Devil instantly formed a hand seal while retreating.

The air trembled slightly, a flash of inspiration struck, and half of his body vanished into the air, about to slip away.

But in that instant, the air rippled rapidly, and another streak of azure energy suddenly escaped, colliding with the Ruthless Old Devil had transformed into black mist.

A shockwave and a loud bang erupted in the air.

The Ruthless Old Devil grunted, his figure forcibly interrupted from the Qi Escape Technique.

"You're not the only one who knows Qi Escape Technique!"

A flash of green energy transformed into Feng Qingbo's figure, who angrily rebuked him.

"Roar!--"

At the same time, Dragon's Roar's roar resounded, and then suddenly the wind and clouds surged between heaven and earth, and thunder rumbled. The Dragon Transformation True Lord Shangguan Linjiang transformed into a long dragon of Spiritual Qi and crossed the night sky.

Its massive dragon body swayed, and its scales transformed into hundreds of phantoms under the moonlight, forming countless dragon shadows that overwhelmed and bombarded the Ruthless Old Devil.

A series of deafening roars, accompanied by blinding flashes of light, erupted instantly.

The night sky was like a calm lake surface, suddenly surging with waves, large swathes of clouds and mist were scattered, and the Spiritual Qi within a radius of hundreds of miles was stirred up, bursting forth with aurora.

"Good!"

Chen Dengming's expression relaxed as he looked down at the pale green aura that was slowly spreading to his thighs. Suddenly, every one of his 36,000 pores emitted a light as sharp as a needle tip.

Magnetic-optical protection!

His massive body trembled violently, and the surrounding air seemed to vibrate within this radiant light, distorting the surrounding atmosphere.

The magnetic field of heaven and earth immediately became chaotic, and wisps of aurora, like silk or illusory mist, shook and changed violently.

Even so, it only barely shook away the many ghastly green, gelatinous auras, revealing a gently floating green net.

"What a troublesome Law Treasure!"

Chen Dengming's expression changed slightly.

With a wave of his hand, the [Longevity Jade Seal] released a radiant light and flew out, landing in the huge, winnowing basket-like palm.

A bluish-green light appeared in his eyes, like two bolts of lightning flashing across his pupils.

A chilling aura of divine might suddenly erupted from his eyes.

The Heavenly Dao is bright and all evils retreat!

The pale green silk net, which had been shaken apart, slowly swayed away under the awe-inspiring power of the heavens, and was caught by Chen Dengming and put into his Storage Bag.

Chen Dengming breathed a sigh of relief, and his body surface rippled with a silvery, electric-like Human Immortal Way Power.

Its enormous size, already fourteen zhang, expanded and swelled again, transforming into Silver Light giant in the air like a mountain. Its immense power and pressure shook all directions, and its breath was like smoke and clouds. The lifelike, evil giant deer on its huge robes that grew larger with its body was extremely eye-catching.

"Roar!--"

At this moment, countless dragon shadows in front of them collapsed one by one.

A black, Devil Qi radiating an evil light flashed, tearing through the dragon shadows, and was about to disappear in a flash.

"Where do you think you're going!"

Chen Dengming's voice boomed like a bell, his eyes radiating power, and he suddenly drew out the radiant [Longevity Jade Seal] in his hand.

Instantly, the Longevity Jade Seal shone brightly in the sky like a bright sun.

The situation changed rapidly.

Thick clouds gathered into ribbons, instantly entangling the black Devil Qi.

Celestial beings are on tour, commanding the world, the Heavenly Immortal Dao Domain!

"Ancestral Demon Seal!!"

The Ruthless Old Devil roared, and the instant his hands formed a hand seal, beams of light, solidified into physical form, shot out and tore through the clouds.

A Devil Qi beam of light shot out, its terrifying energy surging through the clouds.

Boom!

An invisible pressure accompanied the demonic seal, surging outwards like a raging wave, causing the dozen or so ribbons to tremble and crack inch by inch.

Just then, the Ruthless Old Devil instinctively sensed a strong threat, and there was no time to think further.

In an instant, he made a hand seal to dispel the dim demonic seal, his body transforming into black mist, becoming phantoms, and soaring away into the sky.

However, in Chen Dengming's eyes, who was rapidly approaching, this speed and deception were simply too clumsy.

Even without the ability to Heavenly Eye, he could pinpoint the location of his opponent with his mind, his massive, mountain-like body sweeping across the sky.

To the many cultivators in the distance, all they saw was a giant nearly twenty feet tall, radiating intense light, galloping through the sky, with a majestic and wicked deer between its legs.

He suddenly twisted his waist and threw a punch.

The iron fist, as heavy as a mountain, unleashed a blinding Qi Pillar that pierced the night sky and landed heavily on the afterimages.

Boom boom boom--

One afterimage after another, their bodies collapsing and being blasted apart, accompanied by a series of incredibly realistic and dense sounds of bones breaking.

Some of these avatars were actually cultivators in disguise, which is unbelievable. Now they've become scapegoats, being smashed into puffs of blood mist by this unparalleled punch.

"Damn Bai Mao!"

The Ruthless Old Devil's figure pierced through the blood mist, dodging in a sorry state, his face grim.

But in that instant...

Everything went black overhead.

He felt another powerful surge of mental energy rush into his mind, making him feel dizzy and disoriented. A vision appeared in his mind of a giant with eyes like stars glaring at him.

In that fleeting moment of confusion...

A massive, terrifying iron fist, as heavy as a mountain, descended from the sky like a mountain pressing down, accompanied by dense waves of air and Spiritual Qi.

"Not good!"

The Ruthless Old Devil's eyes bulged out, and he instantly regained his senses. The belt around his waist flashed with spiritual light, and Spiritual Qi rapidly gathered, transforming into a black, glaze-like armor that covered his entire body.

"You certainly have a lot of Law Treasure!"

Chen Dengming snorted coldly, and his huge iron fist suddenly transformed into a finger, with a domineering glove phantom appearing at the fingertip.

With a deafening roar, the Dragon's Roar's cry echoed across the night sky, its overwhelming aura of dominance engulfing the entire area!

Five Dragon Overlord Hand!

Five dragon shadows converged at Chen Dengming's thick fingertips, like five dragons circling a pillar, roaring as they transformed into sharp cones, spinning fiercely as they fell and struck the spine of the Ruthless Old Devil.

Three punches can't block one palm, three palms can't block one elbow, three elbows can't block one tip, and three tips can't block one finger!

This is the Five Dragon Immortal Finger!

With a loud crack, the glazed armor-like Law Treasure flashed with intense light for a moment, then shattered and exploded amidst the five dragon shadows, unable to withstand the impact.

The Ruthless Old Devil coughed up blood, his whole body felt like it had been electrocuted, his bones made a loud cracking sound, his spine shattered, and his waist was bent over by the blows. He crashed to the ground with a thud amidst a terrifying shockwave.

The cracking sounds continued, and a dozen shrubs on the ground snapped in half, their branches and leaves flying everywhere. They crashed into a deep crater, filling the air with blood mist, and the Physical Body disintegrated.

At the same time, a Nascent Soul escaped from the Physical Body, grabbed Storage Bag, and decisively abandoned the nearly crippled Physical Body to flee without lingering. It seemed that he had rehearsed this kind of outcome countless times before, and was able to be far more decisive and ruthless than ordinary people.

This is not just a Physical Body being shattered, but also of the spirit being shattered!

"Trying to escape?"

Chen Dengming's eyes narrowed, and he immediately prepared to give chase.

However, at this point, the drawbacks of the Ancient Human Immortal Physique become apparent.

While his strength has increased considerably, his speed has decreased significantly due to his larger size and weight.

As Chen Dengming frowned, he suddenly slapped the giant deer on his thigh.

"Go!"

The giant deer's eyes gleamed with an incomparably evil green light. Suddenly, it let out a wild neigh, and its four hooves trembled wildly, transforming into a huge ball of yellow light that burst out of its robes and rushed straight towards the fleeing Nascent Soul of the Ruthless Old Devil Nascent Soul.

Only then did his body plunge downwards a distance like a roaring mountain, and the torn wounds between the knotted muscles on his back had begun to heal.

Suddenly, a series of booming sounds, like a machine gun, came from afar.

Streams of spiritual light, like flames, burst forth.

A powerful threat, like a ball of fire, was rapidly approaching.

The terrifying aura emanating from the spirit was like a blazing sun, scorching one's mind and soul, yet it also released a strange, incredibly gentle wave, much like the power of Incense and Faith.

"Um?"

Before Chen Dengming could even turn his head to look, his heart skipped a beat, and the magnetic aura protecting his entire body from the hairs on his body began to tremble. He immediately turned his body to the side.

Almost at that moment.

A dazzling javelin, imbued with the Nascent Soul Power and the weight of earth energy, grazed his body, shattering the magnetic protective barrier around him. In an instant, it plunged into the earth below, causing a violent explosion.

Countless snowflakes were shaken into the air.

Suddenly, the sky above was a blank expanse, while below, flames roared.

Such a powerful offensive is terrifying in its destructive force.

Chen Dengming the Unseen a strong sense of crisis; it was a powerful intuition born from his keen mind.

With a swift grab, the Divine Transformation Stone transformed into a dagger several meters long, flying into his hand. Without even looking, he unleashed a strike.

"Clang!--"

Another javelin, imbued with intense Nascent Soul energy and Earth Immortal Dao Power, hurtled towards him, colliding with the dagger he had thrown, unleashing a massive burst of light and shadow that created a ring of transparent shockwaves.

Chen Dengming's thick arm muscles trembled violently.

He felt a tearing pain in his body, and his massive body was thrown backward by an incredible force.

It was as if we had been hit by a huge mountain.

Boom!--

The javelin, deflected by his dagger, fell back to the ground with tremendous force, smashing down a mountain peak.

"The Earth Immortal Dao Power?!"

Chen Dengming's bright, sun- and moon-like pupils contracted as he turned around.

A figure shrouded in intense Nascent Soul energy and powerful earth energy rushed towards him at lightning speed, rapidly enlarging before his eyes. Amidst the wildly dancing hair, a woman's face, even more domineering and masculine than any man's, appeared, her eyes filled with icy killing intent.

The Northern Yin Holy Mother!

Following the Northern Yin Holy Mother, Mi Changzai and Chai Shun also quickly shook off the two Nascent Soul Cultivators and gave chase.

At the same time, two powerful Nascent Soul auras suddenly appeared from the east and rapidly approached.

Su Yan Yan and Jiang Jian had arrived.

"Thank goodness they all came."

Chen Dengming took a deep breath, and he could already hear Sea of Consciousness Dongfang Huayuan's voice in his mind.

The predecessors are already close, and now reinforcements have arrived.

He glanced at the rapidly approaching Northern Yin Holy Mother, his eyes hardening with coldness. "Having already lost a Nascent Soul Late Stage, does this Northern Yin Holy Mother still intend to entangle me in a fight? Perfect timing, with Senior Dongfang arriving soon, let's keep her here!"

The thought had barely crossed his mind when suddenly, a bloody light appeared in his mind, as if on a whim, bringing to mind the scene of the tribulation he had sensed before, and blood rushed through his body.

"Not good!"

Chen Dengming's eyes narrowed, and he quickly raised his palm.

With a roar, the Five Dragon Overlord Hand unleashed a blinding spiritual light, and the five dragons circled around him, unleashing an invincible and unparalleled domineering aura!

But in that instant, a sense of oppression descended upon the world, and a terrifying pressure that surpassed everyone suddenly enveloped the entire area, causing the whole world to fall into a sudden stillness.

Everything seemed to gradually slow down.

Chen Dengming's eyes widened, and the five dragons swirling between his large hands seemed to roar in terror, all their domineering aura gone.

In that instant, a streak of blood-red light, accompanied by terrifying spiritual power, suddenly appeared from the distant Dongfang horizon. It spread rapidly like a crimson glow, instantly turning Sky Dome blood red, as if a pool of blood had flowed and gathered, yet strangely accompanied by a series of humming sounds like incense offerings.

The next instant, a trail of blood suddenly flowed down from the sky.

Like a blood-stained sword studded with beads of blood, it shot down obliquely from the east.

All of this sounds slow, but in reality, it happens in the blink of an eye amidst everyone's rapidly fluctuating thoughts.

In the instant that blood-red light, like a blood-staining sword, swept diagonally past.

Chai Shun, the Island Master Dragon Spirit Island, was the first to be hit, falling within the trajectory of the blood sword attack.

"Blood God!!"

He suddenly let out a desperate and unwilling roar, his whole body bursting with powerful Nascent Soul Power. Veins bulged under his skin, blood surged on his body, dragon scales appeared, and dragon horns grew on his forehead, emitting an incomparably dazzling light.

But in an instant, the blood sword was unstoppable, piercing through the dragon claw that it had used to block, tearing its body apart.

Bang!

The powerful dragon body trembled violently, as if cracking, with crisscrossing cracks appearing on Chai Shun's body, like porcelain about to shatter!

In that instant, the fate of Chai Shun, the Nascent Soul Late Stage Island Master Dragon Spirit Island, became unknown.

And this blood-red sword, falling from the sky with unstoppable force, was headed for Chen Dengming.

The Blood God, who had disappeared after being severely injured by the Longevity First Ancestor, has reappeared and taken action personally, seemingly wanting to vent his boundless rage on Chen Dengming, the leader of the Longevity Sect.

Everything is heading towards the worst possible outcome.

A Blood God at the Spirit Transmutation Stage is the true source of bloodshed and calamity.

The intense life-or-death crisis sent chills down Chen Dengming's spine.

In just a moment, the sharp, bloody aura of the Blood Sword rapidly magnified before his eyes.

The speed was unbelievable.

His thoughts and reactions were extremely fast, but the Five Dragon Overlord Hand and the Divine Transformation Blade that he quickly wielded seemed to fly up slowly in slow motion, completely unable to keep up with the speed of the Blood Sword.

In the end, the Blood Sword swept past the Five Dragon Overlord Hand, and the Divine Transformation Blade barely clashed with the Blood Sword.

Clang--

With just one collision, the Divine Transformation Blade cracked and flew out, exploding into countless fragments in mid-air before rapidly reassembling upon landing.

After that brief, suffocating collision, Chen Dengming threw a punch in the next instant.

At the point of the fist, the Human Immortal Way Power erupted violently, condensing into a high-pressure Spiritual Qi wave.

But in the next instant, the crimson sword light that erupted from the Blood Sword compressed the air to form a terrifying shockwave, instantly shattering his fist force that could kill an ordinary Nascent Soul, tearing apart the Human Immortal Way Power, ripping open his powerful Ancient Human Immortal Physique's protection, and breaking through his Flesh and Blood and even bones.

Chen Dengming's hair stood on end, and he quickly retreated to avoid the impact, his eyes gleaming with a bluish-green light.

The Heavenly Immortal Dao Domain gathers the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, which quickly condenses around it.

Within the blood sword, an incomparably powerful Divine Sense erupted, suddenly elongating like a blood droplet, transforming into a deadly, soul-reaping crimson thorn that tore apart the Heavenly Immortal Dao Domain.

The air was violently turbulent, and the airflow was raging.

A sharp, blood-red light shot straight at Chen Dengming's brow.

The intense threat of death pounded on his mind.

At this extremely critical and perilous moment, Chen Dengming quickly calmed down and remained composed, his mind rising to a state of Unity of Heaven and Man. He did not think about contacting Dongfang Huayuan, who had rushed over in anger. He first guarded his mind, and then became indifferent to worldly concerns.

Puff--

A sharp pain shot through my forehead.

Fresh blood began to seep out.

His brow bone had been pierced.

A malevolent and bloodthirsty Divine Sense suddenly invaded Chen Dengming's Sea of Consciousness, as if a cuckoo had usurped its nest.

"It turns out he no longer has Physical Body; he has truly become Spirit Transformation."

Chen Dengming's eyes were filled with a cold, silvery light, showing no reaction to the Physical Body pain he was experiencing; he was detached and formless.

Seven Absolute Realms!

A flash of Silver Light!

His massive figure vanished into thin air in a flash of Silver Light.

In mid-air, a vast spiritual power suddenly froze, shaking all directions, and quickly gathered into a drop of blood, revealing a face full of astonishment and confusion.

But in the next instant, the eyes on that face suddenly fixed on a wisp of emotion still fluctuating in the void, and a sinister smile appeared on its face.

"Youngster, you actually have such tricks up your sleeve! You almost fooled me!"

His face and eyes flashed with a blood-red light, and he was about to launch a fierce attack when his expression suddenly changed drastically.

"Why would this Sha Star come?"

Boom! --

Suddenly, a dazzling, awe-inspiring flash of silver light erupted from the distance, instantly piercing the night sky. Within the streak of light, a blurry silver spear locked firmly onto the Blood God amidst the crimson light.

A vast, angry voice, like a resounding bell, accompanied by an overwhelming and ferocious spiritual aura, swept over.

"You damned Blood Dog! You dared to ambush a junior! Die!"
