Jiang Yunxu, who had reached the Nascent Soul level, had been slain in the space of a breath, and the rest of them had nowhere to flee. Lady Ruyi, the master of the Heavenly Being Pavilion, and the others gazed up at the godlike figure in the firmament, their hearts filled with disbelief and terror.
"Senior, spare my life. I am willing to surrender and serve at your command." Lady Ruyi's voice was soft and delicate, carrying an earnest plea as she prostrated herself, displaying her exquisite, graceful figure.
Her surrender seemed to serve as a signal. The other cultivators, whether Golden Core True Persons or those at Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, fell to their knees in waves, trembling as they begged for mercy.
Even the members of the Spirit Controlling Sect were no exception. Only High Person Tian Luo, Green Bamboo, Dark Nether, Crimson Silk, Cangyang, and the others wore faces ashen as death, looking as though they had lost their parents.
With Jiang Yunxu's attainment of Nascent Soul, even the chickens and dogs of the Spirit Controlling Sect had ascended to heaven alongside him. It had all but become the foremost sect of the Nine Kingdoms, its prestige resounding everywhere.
Every cultivator of the Spirit Controlling Sect had been beside themselves with joy, convinced that they would reign supreme for the next thousand years. Who could have imagined that Jiang Yunxu would be slain with such effortless ease?
A demonic blood nascent infant inherently possessed the Blood Escape Technique, allowing it to flee as swiftly as lightning. Yet before this divine figure, even his nascent soul had been unable to escape.
The gulf was simply too vast, like heaven and earth, like clouds and mud. It left them unable to muster even the slightest thought of resistance.
