Fall of a Fifth Tier Demon
Inside the "Demon-Suppressing Pass," Kong Wenxuan watched as Ya Zhaoying unleashed her full power and realized that unless Fourth Tier Demon Beast or Demon Race attacked, the Demon Beast tide that was currently rushing out from the southern mountains, no matter how many Demon Beast or demon birds came, would be unable to shake the "Fire Crow Divine Fire Shield" Demon-Suppressing Pass.
Therefore, Kong Wenxuan quickly turned his attention back to the tribulation of lightning deep in the mountains. The life or death of the Fifth Tier Demon Beast undergoing the tribulation was the key to determining the next course of events.
Meanwhile, the tribulation lightning deep in the mountains had passed more than halfway. The Fifth Tier Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation was the first tribulation on the path of cultivation, and its number and power were the lowest.
Therefore, the Fifth Tier Demon Race race also transcended tribulation very quickly.
The remaining dark clouds of lightning in the sky were less than a third of their peak size, but the lightning that was being generated and destroyed within them was becoming increasingly intense, louder, and denser, clearly indicating that the power of the lightning was increasing as the tribulation progressed.
He could only make a preliminary assessment of the situation of the Demon Race undergoing tribulation by observing the dark clouds of lightning in the sky from afar.
Time seemed to pass very slowly at this moment. Every minute and every second, Kong Wenxuan was suffering in his heart, praying that the Demon Race race would fail in their tribulation.
However, it turned out that the "Peacock Bloodline" clearly had no power of Curse or Divine Ability, and his prayer was unsuccessful.
The tribulation lightning deep within the distant mountains continued until its very end. As the last bolt of lightning struck, no unusual phenomenon occurred— the Demon Race failing to transcend the tribulation and perishing.
On the path of cultivation, whether one is a bloodline cultivator or Demon Race or Demon Beast, once one cultivates and grows to the middle level of the Fourth Tier or above, one has already come into contact with and controlled the Power of Heaven and Earth, and one's strength and combat power can completely crush the lower-level Third Tier rank Purple Mansion.
Therefore, when cultivators, Demon Race, and Demon Beast beasts at the Fourth Tier and above perish, they inevitably produce some strange phenomena that disturb the Power of Heaven and Earth. The higher the cultivation level, the more obvious the strange phenomena and the greater the impact.
The Demon Race undergoing tribulation had already advanced to the Fifth Tier. If it were to truly perish under the lightning tribulation, it would surely cause a strange phenomenon deep within the mountains, disturbing the Power of Heaven and Earth. Even if it wasn't as imposing as the lightning tribulation, it would still be visible to Kong Wenxuan and the others.
However, even after the last lightning tribulation had struck, no Fifth Tier Demon Race race member had perished. This undoubtedly indicated that the opponent had successfully passed the tribulation and completely stabilized their Fifth Tier cultivation and strength.
This undoubtedly made Kong Wenxuan and the others' expressions even more solemn. A Fifth Tier Demon Race member was someone that they, as lower-grade "True Spirit Lineage," could not possibly contend with.
Next, we can only see if the Bi Household army can kill the Fifth Tier Demon Race who has successfully transcended the tribulation!
If the kill is successful, then everyone will be happy, and everything will continue as usual.
If they failed to kill the Fifth Tier Demon Race and it escaped, he and the clan leader would probably have to return to the Lineage immediately and lead the entire clan to flee to Bifang Commandery.
Beep! Beep!
As Kong Wenxuan was pondering these thoughts, he heard the peculiar cry of Bifang True Spirit again. Looking up, he saw that among the "Bifang True Spirit Star" floating in the sky, "Bifang True Spirit" stood on one leg, head held high, wings outstretched, and a large amount of starlight descended, landing directly in the depths of the mountains, where the Fifth Tier Demon Race was undergoing tribulation.
In the glittering starlight that fell from the sky, Kong Wenxuan seemed to see a figure descending with the starlight, his body engulfed in azure and crimson Calamity Fire, directly striking the spot where the lightning tribulation had just dissipated.
Roar!
From deep within the mountains, a distant roar seemed to echo.
With that roar, the starlight falling from the sky was scattered, and the surrounding mountains were shattered. A large number of collapsed mountains and boulders flew in all directions and fell to various places in the southern mountains. The impact shook the mountains and the earth, and dust and debris flew everywhere.
This appears to be an attack and resistance launched by the Fifth Tier Demon Race that successfully transcended the tribulation.
However, it doesn't seem to have any effect.
Shortly after that terrifying roar, a violent explosion was heard coming from the depths of the mountains.
Kong Wenxuan and the others also saw a large amount of uncontrolled cyan and yellow Spiritual Qi and light bursting out and shooting straight into the sky, as if a mushroom cloud of cyan and yellow had suddenly appeared.
Boom! Boom! Rumble...
At this moment, the sounds and destructive force of the battle deep within the mountains finally reached the mountains near "Demon-Suppressing Pass," causing the earth to shake and the ground to rumble.
However, Kong Wenxuan and the others paid no attention to this. They stared intently at the mushroom cloud that had erupted from the depths of the mountains, their faces filled with surprise and delight. "A meteorite phenomenon!"
That was definitely a phenomenon of Fifth Tier Nascent Soul falling from grace!
Moreover, judging from the strange phenomenon of the fall, the fallen Fifth Tier being was definitely a Fifth Tier Demon Race, not Nascent Soul True Lord from the Bi Household.
After all, the Bi Household's "Bifang Bloodline" cultivates the power of wood and fire. If the Bi Household's True Lord were to perish, the resulting phenomenon should be a mushroom cloud of blue and red, not the blue and yellow mushroom cloud we see now.
Judging from this strange phenomenon of death, Kong Wenxuan and the others could at least determine that the Fifth Tier Demon Race who successfully transcended the tribulation but was killed by the True Lord of the Bi Household should be a Demon Race who cultivated the power of wood and earth.
The distance was too great, and the speed at which the True Lord of the Bi Household killed the opponent was too fast, so Kong Wenxuan and the others did not see the specific appearance of the Fifth Tier Demon Race, and therefore could not determine what kind of Demon Race it was.
However, regardless of what kind of Demon Race it was, the fact that the opponent had been successfully killed by the True Lord of the Bi Household undoubtedly brought a great sense of relief to Kong Wenxuan and the others.
At least, they no longer had to rush home to lead their people to safety.
Beep! Beep!
At this moment, deep within the mountains, the peculiar cry of the Bifang bird rang out once more. A figure could be seen leading a team of over a hundred "Bifang Dao Soldiers" flying out from the depths of the mountains and into the starlight falling from the "Bifang True Spirit Star," disappearing as the starlight dissipated.
In the sky, on the manifested "Bifang True Spirit Star", the "Bifang True Spirit", standing on one leg with its head held high and wings outstretched, also let out a strange cry, as if showing off its power to this southern mountainous area. Then the star gradually disappeared into the sky.
As the Fifth Tier Demon Race undergoing tribulation was killed, the Bi Household army that had sent troops to the southern mountains also withdrew. The terrifying power and battle in the southern mountains gradually dissipated, and the tide of Demon Beast that had been frightened and rushed in all directions gradually subsided.
At the "Demon-Suppressing Pass," the horde of Demon Beast that charged forward could not cross the sea of fire even half a step. Now that there was no threat from behind, the horde of Demon Beast that had gathered and charged forward quickly retreated and fled back into the mountains.
