They watched in disbelief as the white-robed man struck with his One Sword and chased after the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower. The others remained stunned for a long time.
Their initial fear was gradually replaced by shock and astonishment.
All that remained in their hearts was a final thought.
They thought they were doomed, but unexpectedly, everything took a turn for the better!
The Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower wasn't after them at all; it was being hunted down.
It was so terrified that it didn't even dare to stop and devour another piece of its prey, fleeing in panic as if staying even a second longer would increase the danger to its life.
"Who... is that person?"
Someone spoke slowly, their tone dreamlike and ethereal.
What he said was also what others wanted to know.
yes.
Who exactly is the sword cultivator who is hunting down the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower?
He even chased after that seven-patterned demonic flower to kill it!
Unfortunately, it was just a fleeting glimpse; Lin Xuan was too fast, and they didn't even get a clear look at which faction the man in white belonged to.
but...
"I observed that the white-robed Qi and Blood was incredibly powerful, and the black and white shadows surrounding him were composed of Sword Qi!"
"This person is a master of our Human Race, and undoubtedly a peerless swordsman!"
Someone spoke up, and the majority agreed.
Absolutely!
He is undoubtedly a sword cultivator.
However, it's unclear which sword cultivator has produced such a formidable expert!
Lin Xuan didn't care at all what the people behind him were saying.
He stared at the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower that was fleeing in terror ahead of him, a cold glint in his eyes.
The aura of the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower weakened more and more under Lin Xuan's pursuit, almost reaching its lowest point.
It wasn't that it didn't try its best, but unfortunately, no matter how hard it fought, it couldn't cause Lin Xuan any harm, since Lin Xuan had already mastered the Sword Domain.
Lin Xuan's Sword Domain always enveloped the figure of the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower.
Just as the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower was about to escape from the Cloudmist Marsh, and its eyes lit up with joy as it saw the mist gradually thinning at the edge, a sharp sword tore through the thick fog and also ripped open the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower's body.
"No..."
Its peach blossom eyes were wide open, staring intently at the edge so close at hand, its face full of regret and resentment, but as its broken vitality gradually faded, its eyes became dull and lifeless.
The Seven-Patterned Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower, a powerful demon who dominated the Human Race's Demon Wanted List of demons, has fallen!
Lin Xuan flicked his sleeve, tucked the corpse of the demonic flower into it, looked towards the ancient palace, and then turned back.
Although that ancient palace was Half-Step Saint Weapon, it had long been in ruins after being corroded by demonic energy so many times.
The auspicious and Immortal Spirit aura within were also fabricated by the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower.
Now that the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower has died, the Immortal Spirit and demonic energy within the entire ancient hall seems to be leaking outwards like crazy.
The Human Race cultivators still inside were completely dumbfounded.
They stared blankly at the rapidly decaying walls and the increasingly faded hall, their eyes filled with terror.
What happened?
What happened?
"This..." Qin Lingsu and the others hadn't left yet, and their expressions changed as they looked at the changes around them.
She suddenly seemed to remember something and hurriedly took out some refining materials she had found earlier, only to be astonished to discover that a portion of them had all turned grayish-white.
We've been scammed.
Mo Hui coughed lightly and tossed out a number of items from his Storage Bag.
"This Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower is truly cunning. Only a small portion of the resources in this hall are real; the rest, I wonder what methods it used to conceal and disguise them. Our illusion skills are not high enough to have detected it."
Upon hearing this, Yu Wei and Moon Eve Alliance's expressions all changed.
They hurriedly probed their Storage Bag with their Divine Sense, and then their expressions changed drastically.
My Spirit Stone!
"My lapis lazuli!"
"Why... why did half of the materials I collected turn to ashes?"
"Half? I've lost more than half of it!"
Yu Wei took a deep breath, almost unwilling to believe what he was seeing.
Previously, he and Lin Xuan had chosen completely opposite paths.
Along that road, his team acquired a considerable amount of Spirit Stone and directly discovered a Spirit Stone mine.
But now...
He poured out all the Spirit Stone he had received from his Storage Bag, and his face grew increasingly pale.
Empty!
Empty!
They're all empty!
All the Spirit Stone were now just empty shells; the Spiritual Qi inside had long since dissipated.
They worked so hard for so long, only to end up with nothing.
The reason for the change in Wen Ling and the others' expressions was because of the spoils in their Storage Bag...
Basically, nothing has changed.
Throughout their journey, they had been under Lin Xuan's protection and guidance, and nothing they gained had turned into an empty shell.
Apart from the small amount of refining materials they casually picked up.
The most important spiritual fruit was also perfectly fine and unharmed.
For a moment, they didn't even know what to say.
However, seeing the regretful expressions on the faces of those around them, they were also quite perceptive and tried their best to show signs of pain, so as not to be discovered as different and become the target of everyone's criticism.
Just then, a streak of light flashed across the sky, and before everyone knew it, a figure appeared before them.
It was Lin Xuan who had gone after the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower.
"Senior Brother Lin!"
"Senior Brother Lin!"
Wen Ling, Lu Qiuyan, and the others were very happy and excited, shouting and looking at Lin Xuan with admiration.
"Let's go," Lin Xuan said calmly, his gaze remaining fixed on the group before him. " The fortuitous opportunity here are gone; let's return to Demon-Suppressing City."
When he comprehended the Sword Domain, the small sword became his weapon, obeying his commands, and directly entered his Sword Domain.
This is the greatest fortuitous opportunity this place has to offer.
"Good!"
Wen Ling and the others were eager to get back, and nodded quickly.
Mo Hui, who was standing nearby, saw Lin Xuan and the others about to leave and quickly called out to them.
"Wait... Fellow Daoist, may I ask about that Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower...?"
Lin Xuan paused slightly, turned to look at the other party, and said calmly, " The Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower is dead. You can go back now. There's no need to worry."
After saying that, he led Wen Ling and the others away without looking back.
All that remained were the stunned onlookers.
Dead...
Mo Hui took a deep breath, wiped her face, and realized that she had ultimately underestimated Lin Xuan!
He hadn't expected that Lin Xuan, in such a short time, would actually kill the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower!
You must understand, the Soul-Devouring Demon-Refining Flower has survived on the Human Race's Most-Wanted List for so many years not only because of its formidable strength, but also because of its exceptional ability to escape...
But it just died like that!
Lin... that person's surname is Lin, from the Primordial Holy Heaven... this is truly a huge surprise!
