The massive black Yin Spirit leader lowered its head, looked down at Ji Zining below, and roared.
"Human woman, why have you trespassed into the Chaotic Ancient Forbidden Land? Retreat immediately, or you will be executed without mercy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other Yin Spirit around him emitted a series of unpleasant sounds, adding to his power.
Hehehe...
Hehehehe...
"..."
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an, who had initially looked somewhat solemn, scratched his head in puzzlement.
Something's not right, what's going on?
When he came last time, the leader of the Yin Spirit didn't warn him to leave, did he?
They had just seen him and immediately started chasing and attacking him. If he hadn't been a sword cultivator whose speed was faster than the Yin Spirit Commander, he would have been dead long ago.
Now that we've reached Ji Zining, why not attack directly, but instead advise her to leave?
Xiao Jing and the others also turned their gazes toward Li Chang'an.
This Yin Spirit leader seems alright; he even warns people that this is forbidden territory and they should leave quickly. He's not as scary as you described, is he?
Noticing the gazes of Xiao Jing and the others, Li Chang'an gave a bitter smile.
He was now in a predicament he couldn't express; this leader of the Yin Spirit was different from the one he had seen last time!
Even the leader of the Yin Spirit has such double standards?
Ji Zining held the Immortal-Slaying Sword in her hand and smiled knowingly upon hearing the Yin Spirit Commander's words.
"If you tell me to leave, I'll just leave. Wouldn't that make me lose face?"
"How about this, if you can beat me, I'll leave, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jing and the others exchanged glances and tacitly retreated a distance.
Let's leave the rest to His Divine Son Hall. Divine Son Hall previously said he wanted to test his strength.
This Yin Spirit leader, having been provoked like this, would certainly not tolerate it.
As expected, the Yin Spirit Commander was surrounded by surging black energy, his expression one of unprecedented rage.
"I warned you, trespassing means you'll stay here forever!"
Before the words were finished, the Yin Spirit Commander stomped his foot on the ground, leaped high into the air, and simultaneously brought a palm down towards Ji Zining.
Seeing this, Ji Zining smiled with amusement.
"Want to fight in close combat? Then, so be it!"
With a thought, he stored the Immortal-Slaying Sword into his dantian.
Previously, Ji Zining would never have dared to engage in close combat with this Yin Spirit Commander, who possessed the combat power of the Peak Saint King Realm.
However, now, Ji Zining has obtained the inheritances of two powerful Great Emperor Mo Yang and Chen Luanxing, who are proficient in close combat.
Close combat, which she wasn't very good at before, has now become Ji Zining's forte!
She took the essence and discarded the dross from the inheritance of Mo Yang and Chen Luanxing, and combined them to form a new system.
Now, in close combat, Ji Zining is confident that she can defeat a powerful enemy with minimal effort!
Moreover, her power is considerable now!
His physical cultivation has reached the Peak Saint Realm, and he is also blessed with the Nine Aperture Nine-Orifice Exquisite Body high-grade Divine Rank Upper Grade body.
Her physical combat strength alone is already at the Peak Great Saint Realm, and with her inheritance, she is comparable to the Saint King Realm.
Close combat is a contest of physical strength combined with spiritual power cultivation; the Peak Saint King Realm is not out of reach!
The moment the Immortal-Slaying Sword flew into her dantian, Ji Zining used her Exquisite Flying Immortal Steps and disappeared from the spot.
The next instant, Ji Zining's figure appeared out of thin air above the Yin Spirit Commander, and then she stepped down.
" The Asura Seven Steps, First Step!"
The foot seemed to land slowly, but in an instant it landed on the back of the Yin Spirit Commander.
The speed was so fast that the leader of the Yin Spirit had no time to react.
Ripples spread outwards from where the foot landed.
These ripples carried a faint, crimson, bloodthirsty aura, inspiring fear in those who beheld them.
"Bang!"
Amidst the deafening roar, the Yin Spirit Commander crushed space as its massive body plummeted downwards.
Just as it was about to hit the ground, Ji Zining's figure reappeared below the Yin Spirit Commander.
However, Ji Zining's posture this time was somewhat peculiar; she wasn't standing normally, but rather with her head down and feet up.
Ji Zining smiled slightly and parted her lips slightly.
" Asura Seven Steps, Second Step!"
He lifted his toes and gently tapped the body of the Yin Spirit Commander.
Under the incredulous gaze of the Yin Spirit Commander, a terrifying power of bloodlust erupted from the toes of his feet.
This attack was even more powerful than the previous one!
"Bang!"
The Yin Spirit Commander, whose body was about to fall downwards, suddenly rushed towards the sky.
Ji Zining kicked out, but her body didn't fall down even an inch.
After stopping, she used the Exquisite Flying Immortal Steps and disappeared from the spot again.
And so, the leader of the Yin Spirit began his flight through the sky.
" Asura Seven Steps, Third Step!"
"Bang!"
"Ah..."
" Asura Seven Steps, Fourth Step!"
"Bang!"
"Fifth step!"
"..."
The Yin Spirit were stunned, staring at the leader of the Yin Spirit in the sky, whose direction kept changing.
What should they do now?
Should we go rescue the king?
Opposite them, Li Chang'an stared blankly at the Yin Spirit Commander in the sky, whose face was filled with despair and whose direction kept changing.
Deep down, he kept asking himself questions.
Were all those experiences he had just a dream?
Or is what he's experiencing now a true illusion?
Otherwise, why is that Yin Spirit Commander, who is even more powerful than an ordinary Peak Saint King Realm expert, passively flying around in the sky?
Xiao Jing walked up to Li Chang'an and patted him on the shoulder.
"Chang'an! I thought you'd gotten used to it, but it turns out you still haven't."
"It's okay, you'll really get used to it after a few times."
Li Chang'an rubbed his cheeks with both hands, forcing himself to come back to his senses.
"Stop mocking me, I was just thinking about how this Yin Spirit leader used to chase and beat me."
"Given the current scene of His Divine Son Hall's battle against the leader of the Yin Spirit, I couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion."
"You're right, you'll really get used to it after a few times."
After speaking, Li Chang'an tried his best to calm himself down and looked up at the battle above, which could hardly be called a battle.
But after trying for a long time, Li Chang'an still found that he couldn't calm his mind at all.
Thinking of that once mighty and domineering leader of the Yin Spirit, seeing this thing now, I can't relate to it at all!
" Asura Seven Steps, the seventh step!"
Ji Zining took one last step, then stood in mid-air with her hands behind her back.
"Bang!"
After several forced flights, the leader of the Yin Spirit finally landed on the ground.
On its massive body are seven conspicuously deep pits.
From within these deep pits, a dense aura of bloodlust constantly emanates.
The leader of the Yin Spirit struggled to raise his head and look at Ji Zining, who stood in the sky, his eyes filled with fear.
Is this really a human?
Why did it perceive this as a mythical beast disguised as a human?
Such terrifying close-combat ability is something humans don't possess!
The once powerful aura has vanished; now, the Yin Spirit Commander is only faintly visible.
Upon seeing this, the numerous Yin Spirit quickly gathered around, placing Yin Spirit leader in the center and vigilantly watching their surroundings.
These Yin Spirit are different from the previous Yin Spirit; they possess some intelligence.
At least they know how to protect their king.
Ji Zining landed in front of Li Chang'an and the others and clapped her hands.
"All done, let's move on."
The power of the Asura Seven Steps was impressive; she had only used 60% of her strength, yet she had already rendered this Yin Spirit Commander incapable of fighting.
This Asura Seven Steps is Mo Yang's divine power, and its level is the Emperor Rank Upper Grade.
As its name suggests, it has seven legs, each stronger than the last. Theoretically, each step it takes will double its power.
Seven steps, eight times the power!
Li Chang'an withdrew his gaze from the sky, opened his mouth to look at Ji Zining in front of him, but did not know what to say.
Is that all?
Did he just witness a one-sided beating?
