"Looks like I'll have to send you on your way ahead of schedule!"
A cold, hoarse laugh echoed through the valley, and an invisible spiritual force made the air thick and sticky.
The moment the words fell, a gray figure materialized in mid-air.
She floated in the air, dressed in a gray robe, her body hunched over, leaning on a Kumu cane.
It was that fox demon old woman, Mystic Realm Fifth Level Peak, who had escaped from the outskirts of the Demonic Mist Forest!
She didn't fly; instead, she "walked" directly out of nothingness, her pure black fox eyes locking onto Su Yu, her resentment and killing intent undisguised.
The cliffs on both sides of the valley hummed under the oppressive aura she exuded, and countless fragments fell down.
It's her!
Cao Yue's pretty face turned deathly pale, and a sharp, needle-like pain shot through her brow, as if steel needles were stirring her mind.
Her consciousness was on the verge of collapse simply from being locked in by the energy.
Yang Jing's breath hitched as well. She gripped the sword hilt tightly, but the icy coldness in her palms offered no sense of security.
Within the cavalry, all the Demon Suppression Guard fell into a deathly silence.
"Clang!"
A young guard's arm went limp, and his spear fell to the ground, startling his warhorse into a trembling neigh.
However, as the center of all the oppressive pressure, Su Yu remained seated on his horse, his body completely still.
There was no panic on that young face.
The old fox demon of the Demonic Mist Forest.
Mystic Realm Fifth Level Peak, specializing in cultivating divine sense.
That's definitely a problem.
Previously, with only a physical body at the Mystic Realm Second Stage, he could only rely on his armor for passive defense and seek opportunities to escape when facing such a powerful spiritual force.
But now...
His Body Refinement had reached the Mystic Realm Fourth Level, and the power of his qi and blood was far greater than before.
More importantly, he had just fused with the mid-grade Mystic Realm technique, " Blood Sha Mountains and Rivers Slash ".
The only drawback is that he hasn't mastered this new sword technique yet, and it can't perfectly match his physical body at the Mystic Realm Fourth Level.
not enough.
Not enough!
Su Yu's thoughts instantly sank into the system panel.
[ Slaughter Points: 17000]
His mind was made without any hesitation.
"System, channel all Slaughter Points into the ' Blood Sha Mountains and Rivers Slash '!"
[Instructions received!]
[ Slaughter Points -17000!]
[The Blood Sha Mountains and Rivers Slash begins its deduction...]
boom!
A surge of swordsmanship insights, even more ferocious and refined than during the previous fusion, exploded in his mind!
If the previous integration was like giving him a map...
At this moment, the mountains, rivers, grass, and trees on the map are transformed into real memories and forcibly imprinted into the depths of his soul!
How to use qi and blood to draw out Sha Qi, how to make the Saber Force as heavy as a mountain, how to make the blade's edge flow continuously...
Countless profound details were force-fed into the system in the most brutal way.
His already mastered Saber Force, under the scouring of this torrent, frantically condensed and compressed, becoming increasingly heavy, as if it were about to materialize!
outside world.
The old woman hovered in mid-air, a hint of surprise flashing in her pure black fox eyes.
She had assumed that this little beast who had killed two of her trusted henchmen would panic and flee upon seeing her appear.
But he didn't.
He simply sat there quietly, without even a fluctuation of his True Qi.
This eerie calm fueled the murderous intent within her.
"You little beast, you're about to die, yet you still dare to play tricks on me?"
The old woman's dry voice rang out, carrying a chill.
"Last time in the Demonic Mist Forest, you narrowly escaped death."
This time, no one, in heaven or on earth, can save you!
"Your physical body and your soul will become the resources for my people's breakthroughs!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an incomparably powerful divine pressure, like an invisible giant mountain, pressed down on the entire caravan!
Thump!
Thump!
Apart from Cao Yue and Yang Jing who were still struggling to hold on, the rest of the Demon Suppression Guard, along with their horses, were forced to their knees by this oppressive force!
The warhorse neighed mournfully, blood gushing from its mouth and nose, its limbs trembling.
The Demon Suppression Guard turned red in the face, feeling as if their heads were filled with molten lead, and their souls were about to be crushed.
However, when that torrent of divine consciousness reached three feet in front of Su Yu, it crashed into an invisible dam.
The powerful aura emanating naturally from his body completely blocked that force, making it impossible for him to advance an inch!
And at that very moment.
A system notification sounded in Su Yu's mind.
[Ding! Blood Sha Mountains and Rivers Slash has been upgraded to - Minor Completion!]
Su Yu slowly opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, a blood-red Sha Qi, completely different from the old woman's chilling presence, yet equally domineering and violent, surged forth from his body!
The Sha Qi solidified into a tangible substance, transforming into a streak of blood-red smoke that shot straight into the sky, forcefully dispersing the divine pressure emanating from the old woman!
The Demon Suppression Guard, who had been forced to kneel under pressure, suddenly felt the pressure ease and collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
They looked at Su Yu's back as if they were gazing up at a god Gods and Devils emerging from a sea of blood.
"Um?"
The old woman's pure black fox eyes suddenly contracted.
She could clearly sense that the young man's aura had undergone a qualitative transformation in just a few breaths!
That wasn't an improvement in cultivation level, but rather a surge in "momentum"!
Su Yu dismounted with a swift and effortless movement.
The superior-grade Xuan weapon, Soul Severing, quietly slipped into his palm.
He didn't look at his limp colleagues, nor did he pay attention to the old woman's astonishment.
He simply raised his head and calmly gazed at the figure suspended in mid-air.
A strong sense of unease suddenly welled up in the old woman's heart.
She no longer hesitated.
"Die!"
He uttered a single word.
She pointed her Kumu cane at Su Yu from afar.
A gray, extremely condensed Divine Sense Thorn, ignoring spatial distance, appeared directly in front of Su Yu's brow!
That extremely refined Divine Sense Thorn through the air, ignoring physical distance, and instantly appeared before Su Yu's brow.
There was no sound of air being torn apart, no energy fluctuations, only a pure concept of "end" directed at the soul.
Within the valley, all the Demon Suppression Guard, crushed by the oppressive force, felt a tremor originating from the depths of their souls, as if their life force was about to be completely pierced and extinguished by this invisible thorn.
It's over.
These were the thoughts that flashed through Cao Yue's and Yang Jing's minds at the same time.
This level of attack is beyond their comprehension.
This is not True Qi, nor is it a technique; it is a crushing defeat from a higher dimension.
However, just as the Divine Sense Thorn was about to touch Su Yu's skin...
Within Su Yu's Purple Mansion, seven drops of divine consciousness water, condensed from the [ Purple Mansion Spirit-Nurturing Art ] and belonging to the Spirit Realm Seventh Level, suddenly erupted with dazzling purple light!
Buzz--
A buzzing sound, not belonging to the material world, exploded in his sea of consciousness.
A more resilient and purer purple barrier, also formed from divine consciousness, instantly took shape an inch in front of his brow.
bite!
The Divine Sense Thorn collided violently with the purple barrier.
There was no earth-shattering explosion, only an invisible ripple that spread outwards from Su Yu as the center!
