Cooperation

"Fellow disciples, gather your spiritual power towards me!" Shangguan Ouyang shouted, his hands rapidly forming hand seals.

Yang Feng, Li Qingshuang, and the others did not hesitate and directly transferred their spiritual power through the formation.

The Evil Demon, perhaps sensing danger, turned to look at Shangguan Ouyang and the others. "A few tiny insects, instead of trembling obediently, you dare to resist!"

The Evil Demon opened its mouth and spat out a terrifying burst of flames that shot directly towards the seven of them.

Just as the flames were about to engulf them, a shield as tall as a boulder suddenly appeared in front of them.

"What a loss! This is a huge loss! I've almost lost everything."

In the air, Qianyuan's face was full of pain, wishing he could dismantle the Evil Demon into parts and make up for his losses bit by bit.

Seeing that the shield was already melting, Qianyuan jumped up and down in a fit of rage, shouting, "Gentlemen, what are you standing there for? You don't really think that my old Daoist priest's shield can stop this fire, do you?!"

Li Xue unleashed her natal magic Law Treasure, a light blue orb that shot out a water dragon that enhanced the shield.

Shen Ge then joined the others in attacking the Evil Demon's head, but their attacks were like tickling the Evil Demon, causing it little harm and only bothering it like flies.

The Evil Demon was struck by several sword lights, its head tilting to the side, its fire-breathing momentum halted. Its blood-red eyes flashed with a red light, and it roared, "You fly-like beings, daring to provoke me! I will crush you into mincemeat!"

Two beams of red light shot out from its blood-red eyes, and the scorching heat instantly turned the three Golden Core experts who couldn't dodge in time into dust.

The beam of light grazed past Shen Ge's head, the terrifying heat almost setting him ablaze. He quickly retreated a distance before staring at the other person with lingering fear.

He almost, he really almost followed in the footsteps of those three.

Terrifying! This Evil Demon's strength is already not much weaker than that of the Nascent Soul Realm. After fighting for so long, they still haven't figured out its abilities at all.

"Shen Ge, don't be reckless. We're weak and won't be very effective. Just keep them occupied from the outside," Li Xue reminded her telepathically. Shen Ge had almost been melted by the pillar of light, which had scared her half to death.

Shen Ge nodded, then slowly swung the Morning Longing in his hand, unleashing a black and white Sword Qi with seemingly slow but actually fast movements.

Having almost died, it's not Shen Ge's style not to retaliate.

Black and white Sword Qi slashed through the Chang Kong towards the Evil Demon, its violent and destructive power showing signs of tearing through space itself.

The Evil Demon raised a hand, impatiently shattering an ice spike and several sword lights. It glanced at Shen Ge's black and white Sword Qi: "The power of Samsara, the aura of destruction... interesting. The clue our race has been searching for so desperately is actually on a little ant like you. How ironic!"

The Evil Demon raised its hand and pointed, its finger colliding with the sword light. Shen Ge's sword light only lasted for a moment before being crushed.

"How dare such an ant-like being defile such great power!" The Evil Demon opened its huge hand and grabbed directly at Shen Ge, seemingly intending to crush him to death.

Shen Ge wanted to escape, but the surrounding space was frozen in place by some unknown force. He was like someone stuck in a swamp, unable to move an inch, and could only watch helplessly as the giant hand reached out to grab him.

"Shen Ge, let's go!" Li Xue shouted anxiously, while simultaneously forming hand seals to summon a water dragon tens of feet long, intending to block the giant hand of the Evil Demon. However, the water dragon shattered the moment it touched the giant hand, unable to stop it in the slightest.

"Weak and powerless insects are only fit to tremble, wail, suffer, and die before our magnificent bodies!"

At this moment, Shangguan Ouyang spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes bloodshot, and he glared at the Evil Demon expression, roaring, "Slay!"

A sword light suddenly appeared, the world shook, and the Evil Demon's arm suddenly separated from its body and slammed to the ground.

The moment the feeling of Imprisonment disappeared, Shen Ge's figure vanished.

Ah~

"How dare you, an ant-like being, harm me? You're courting death!"

The Evil Demon roared and slammed its other hand down at Shangguan Ouyang, while two beams of light shot from its eyes.

Unable to stop him, absolutely impossible to stop him. Qianyuan gave up the idea of stopping him after just one glance, and even quietly retreated a distance.

Fortunately, the others did not retreat like Qianyuan. Two shields blocked the two pillars of light, and at the same time, a defensive formation silently activated to block the Evil Demon's fist.

"Pop~"

The defensive formation burst like a bubble in less than a breath, but fortunately it bought Shangguan Ouyang and his companions a little time, allowing the seven of them to escape.

"Damn it, my defensive formation!" a furious female voice cursed. "Shangguan Ouyang, you guys have to pay me back with one, or this isn't over!"

With his graying hair, wrinkled face, and listless demeanor, Shangguan Ouyang roared, "Pay up! I'll pay you back! Hua Ji, if you squander all your savings today, come to the Spirit Moon Sect, and I'll take care of you!"

Yang Feng stepped forward to take Shangguan Ouyang at the main position and said, "It's my turn to perform! Fellow senior brothers and sisters, don't be stingy with your spiritual power, send it all to me! Today, I will slay the demon with a single sword and leave my mark on history!"

"Alright, Senior Brother Yang, please!" Li Qingshuang nodded.

The seven streams of spiritual energy flowing into Yang Feng's body caused him to tremble. With his eyes closed, he said with a look of enjoyment, "This power is truly captivating."

"You ants, still want to try? Do you think Wu will give you another chance!"

The Evil Demon stomped its foot hard, and the ground immediately cracked open. Countless boulders, carrying terrifying force, crashed down on the group. At the same time, it stepped on them with its enormous foot, making them feel as if they were stomping on ants.

"Old man, you'd better hurry up, or don't blame us for not stopping you if you get trampled to death." Qianyuan cursed and then swung his partially melted shield toward the largest rock.

The others also tried to stop the stones, but they could only stop the stones; as for the feet, they couldn't stop them, they simply couldn't, and they dared not.

Shen Ge and Li Xue joined forces to stop the nearest rock; its immense force was so great that even the two of them together almost couldn't stop it.

Yang Feng looked up at the darkening sky, a mocking smile playing on his lips, "Ants, ants, what an unpleasant cry. Do you really think you're so high and mighty? Today, I'll behead you with a single sword stroke and show you who the real ant is."

Yang Feng gently stroked the sword. His originally gray hair was turning black at an extremely fast speed, and all the wrinkles on his face disappeared, restoring him to his youthful appearance.

With his black hair flowing and his face resolute, Yang Feng displayed his unique style at this moment.

"Old friend, sending you to chop up such a piece of trash, you've really had a tough time this time."

The next moment, a sword light shot into the sky, even more terrifying than the previous one, and the boundless Sword Qi made the entire secret realm tremble.
