The towering waves obscured the sun and moon, almost completely burying the palace and enveloping Lin Zhaoyu and all the cultivators from the Eastern Pole.

"Brothers! Now, the only way out is to fight to the death!"

"Kill!"

All the cultivators of the Eastern Pole went mad. They roared and charged forward, prepared to die, burning their Primordial Spirit in order to tear through the giant waves and perish together with the demons!

"Like an ant trying to shake a tree, it's overestimating its own strength!"

As he watched the golden light surge towards the giant wave of divine power, a hint of disdain flashed in Ren Wuqing's eyes.

He might have thought that the supernatural powers and magic of the Eastern Pole were profound and powerful, but now it seems that it was just because of the abundance of treasures in the Eastern Pole that a bunch of useless people were raised!

Giant waves crashed away, obliterating the void. One after another, Eastern Pole cultivators died before Lin Zhaoyu. She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails pierced her skin and dug into her flesh, her anger beyond words.

But this was also the best time for her to escape.

Rather than die here in vain, it's better to preserve my life and wait for the future to avenge my comrades!

Thinking of this, Lin Zhaoyu's mind raced, and she prepared to slip away from the hall.

Meanwhile, under the battering of the giant waves, the cultivators of the Eastern Pole suffered heavy casualties, with only a few remaining. These were all the proud talents on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, but now they were all covered in dust and looked utterly disheveled.

Like Lin Zhaoyu, they were not prepared to fight Ren Wuqing to the death and also planned to take the opportunity to escape.

"Walk!"

Lin Zhaoyu glanced at the surviving Gu Clan Divine Dynasty Saintess and the others, whispered a command, and then flew out of the hall without looking back.

"Good!"

The Gu Clan Divine Dynasty Saintess and the others understood, responded, and quickly followed.

However, before she could fly even a few meters away, a violent tremor swept across the area, the entire palace shook violently, and then exploded with a loud bang, billowing smoke and dust.

Ren Wuqing stood in mid-air, covered in blood, his icy gaze sweeping across the crowd below. "Trying to leave? Too late!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his finger, and a dazzling streak of blood-red light instantly pierced the night sky, penetrating the void and heading straight for Lin Zhaoyu and the others.

Wherever the crimson light passed, the void distorted and space collapsed!

A single drop of crimson blood contains astonishing power, reaching the ultimate speed.

"Oops!!"

Sensing the terrifying fluctuations contained within the blood-red light behind her, Lin Zhaoyu's pretty face turned deathly pale, her heart filled with extreme horror.

She dared not be negligent and immediately took out a protective magic item, which shot out and transformed into a thick barrier in front of her, preventing the blood-red light from getting closer.

Laugh--

However, the crimson light was too fast. Before she could fully activate her magic weapon, the scarlet blood droplet pierced through her chest, bursting out in a dazzling cloud of blood mist.

Lin Zhaoyu let out a muffled groan and collapsed to the ground, his fate unknown.

"Goddess Lin!"

Upon seeing this, the Gu Clan Divine Dynasty Saintess and the others widened their beautiful eyes and let out a cry of sorrow.

But in an emergency, there's no time for them to grieve.

The remaining few broke up and fled in different directions.

"Die! Die!"

Seeing this, Ren Wuqing opened his mouth and uttered two words, his eyes indifferent and ruthless, seemingly devoid of any emotion.

He raised his hand and waved it, and a crimson light shot through the air like lightning, tracking down every fleeing person.

The Gu siblings fled together, only to be pursued by the blood-red light at the critical moment. The Gu family's holy son burned his Primordial Spirit and forcibly pushed his sister away, but he himself was annihilated by the blood-red light.

"Elder brother..."

The Saintess of the Ancient Clan had tears in her eyes, but she didn't even have time to look back, and continued to flee towards the outside world.

Killing them was as easy as blowing one's hair.

"Your Highness, shouldn't we capture them alive?"

The Holy Son of the Netherworld Path asked.

"Originally, the plan was to capture them and extract the memories of the Zhongtian Dongji Supernatural Power Spell, but now it seems that the abilities of these trash are not worth mentioning at all, so there is no need for that."

Ren Wuqing said calmly.

"The Holy Son is mighty!"

The Holy Son of the Netherworld Path repeatedly flattered him.

Just when the demons of the Southern Wilderness thought that the people of the Eastern Pole were doomed and that the battle was about to end,

Suddenly, something unexpected happened!

A crimson light chased after a Gu Clan Divine Dynasty Saintess, and just as it was about to devour her completely, a golden flame suddenly appeared out of thin air, transforming into endless golden light, swelling against the wind, and becoming even larger than the raging waves.

It surged forth like a mighty river, scattering the blood-red light and causing a shower of crimson blood to fall.

Swish swish!!!

In a short while, the bloody light vanished into thin air, as if it had never existed.

Just then, the void not far away twisted and condensed into a vortex, from which a stunningly beautiful figure appeared.

The young girl wore a bright yellow dress, her skin was radiant, her features were exquisite, she was dazzling and noble, and her whole body radiated a brilliant Rosy Clouds.

At this moment, the girl stood in the vortex, her beautiful eyes deep and unfathomable, like a vast and boundless world, shining brightly like stars. Her temperament was extraordinary, carrying a suffocating sense of oppression, as if a goddess had descended to the mortal world!

"Princess Xiao has arrived! We are saved!"

Upon seeing Xiao Minghuang appear, the Ancient Saintess was overjoyed and couldn't help but shout out.

The few remaining Eastern Pole cultivators all showed excited smiles.

If anyone could save them in their time of despair, it would be Xiao Minghuang.

Although they weren't familiar with Xiao Minghuang, who hadn't heard of her name?

After all, the number one on the Hidden Dragon Ranking is renowned far and wide; everyone knows him!

At this moment, Lin Zhaoyu got up from the ground. Although she had been hit by Ren Wuqing, she was still a person with profound inner strength. She was only seriously injured and gradually recovered after catching her breath.

She looked up at the sky and saw a figure of unparalleled beauty, like a celestial maiden descending to earth. Her expression was incredibly complex.

"In the end... it's still you..."

In the sky.

Even though Ren Wuqing had seen many extraordinary talents, he had never encountered anyone like Xiao Minghuang. Just by standing there, Xiao Minghuang gave him an unparalleled sense of pressure, as if he were not facing a young genius of the same realm, but a Saint Realm expert who had lived through ancient times and whose foundation was extremely profound!

Immediately, he became extremely vigilant, stepped forward, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said calmly, "Princess Xiao, you have finally appeared!"

"You're very impressive!" Xiao Minghuang stared at Ren Wuqing, her tone cold. "I can tell you're not even fifty years old yet, to have such cultivation is truly remarkable. In the entire Eastern Pole of Zhongtian, below the Saint Realm, there shouldn't be anyone who can rival you!"

"What does Princess Xiao mean by this?"

"No one in Zhongtian Dongji is a match for the demon. Has she admitted defeat?"

Someone couldn't help but say.

"Oh?"

372. Annihilate in one blow

Ren Wuqing raised an eyebrow and looked at Xiao Minghuang with great interest.

"By saying that, you're excluding yourself, aren't you?"

"I?"

Xiao Minghuang let out a soft "hmm," shook her head, and chuckled, "That's not important. You should be thinking about more important issues now."

"What's the problem?"

Ren Wuqing's emotions were stirred, and he immediately asked.

You deserve to die.

The words had barely left his mouth.

Rumble!!

As her voice rang out, lightning and thunder suddenly flashed in the sky, a terrifying power was brewing, and a horrifying wave of destruction spread out.

Ren Wuqing felt a chill run down his spine.

"Pretentious!"

He sneered, "I possess the Red Dust Dao. All the laws and techniques of all living beings in this world can be transformed for my own use. No matter how many tricks you have, you will inevitably suffer the consequences!"

"Looking at the sky from the bottom of a well!"

Xiao Minghuang glanced at him, her gaze indifferent yet carrying a hint of mockery, or perhaps disdain.

The moment the words left his mouth.

"Call out!"

With a wave of her hand, Xiao Minghuang conjured a golden flame that hovered above her right palm, radiating intense golden light that illuminated the heavens, like the rising sun shining upon the world.

The moment the golden flames appeared, they transformed into a boundless sea of fire, boiling and roaring, sweeping across the sky, burning everything in heaven and earth, even melting the void and emitting a sizzling sound.

The sea of fire surged like a volcanic eruption, with thick pillars of fire shooting into the sky, turning the world into a golden hue, as if the end of the world had arrived!

This scene stunned everyone.

This sight is so amazing, it's unbelievable.

That towering sea of fire seemed capable of incinerating all the heavens and myriad realms, making one tremble involuntarily.

Even from a great distance, you could feel the terrifying heat emanating from it.

"This... this is simply not a technique that a King-level expert could control..."

Lin Zhaoyu was utterly shocked.

"This is... the Primordial Sun Power!"

Ren Wuqing's expression changed drastically. He had once witnessed the Primordial Sun Power in an ancient secret realm. It was the most fundamental Dao that constituted the universe and the underlying logic of the entire universe's operation.

The Sun Power originates directly from the eternally burning Sun Star in the universe, sharing the same source as the supreme celestial realm inhabited by immortals!

Moreover, this extremely strong, yang, bright, and clear power is specifically designed to restrain them, the Six Paths of Demonic Ways, and this restraining power even surpasses that of the Great Dao of Fire.

For a fleeting moment, Ren Wuqing even entertained the thought of retreating and escaping.

"How is this possible... How could Xiao Minghuang understand the Primordial Sun Power?"

His mind was in turmoil.

How profound is the Great Dao Power?

For ordinary people, let alone control it, even encountering it is simply impossible!

The Great Dao Power, which exists only within the Sun Star and the Celestial Realm, could not possibly appear in the Eastern Extreme World!

But given the reality before him, he had no choice but to believe it.

"Your Holiness, should we run?"

The Holy Son of the Netherworld Path and other evil spirits were also filled with fear and couldn't help but tremble.

Ren Wuqing glanced at the Netherworld Path Saint Son and the others, his eyes flickered, and a plan suddenly formed in his mind.

"Run?" He smiled slightly, as if confident, and said, "Before leaving, the Demon Emperor bestowed upon me an imperial treasure. Let alone this mere so-called Sun Power, even if some supreme being from the Eastern Pole personally came, we would still not be afraid!"

"Does the Holy Son truly possess an Imperial Treasure?" Upon hearing this, the numerous demons breathed a sigh of relief, their faces regaining their confidence.

"Of course, when have I ever lied to you?" Ren Wuqing said indifferently, "This imperial treasure is extremely powerful and requires some time to prepare before it can be activated. You hold them off for a while, and then we can completely capture Princess Xiao, enter the Burial King's Palace, and obtain the inheritance!"

The numerous demons nodded in agreement.

He looked at the Holy Son of the Burial King Path and asked telepathically, "How much longer until the Time Tower opens?"
