"The Five-Colored Extreme Demon Method! The Demon Sect's young master has returned with her art perfected!"
"Damn it. We forgot about her."
The three recognized the technique at a glance. They hurriedly released their Zhen Xuan and drew Venerable Zhaoming down.
Bai Di's demonic art was formidable, but it could not withstand the combined efforts of the four righteous Dao Venerables. They broke it apart.
Freed from the technique's grasp, Venerable Zhaoming endured the pain of his wounded body and soul and gasped, "Quick... save Chenfeng! To save me, he sacrificed his blood essence and lifespan, drawing that old demon and Bai Di into his sword domain."
"Both of them are immensely powerful, and Bai Di's Five-Colored Demonic Art is especially difficult to guard against. If we don't reach him in time, even Chenfeng will be in grave danger."
The cultivators' faces darkened.
Bai Di's arrival had shattered the fragile balance they had only just achieved.
The righteous side had held a considerable advantage on the battlefield at the top of the heavens. But Cui Shenyoo's appearance had drawn four Mystic Insight Venerables away from the main front, and that advantage was gone.
Now Venerable Zhaoming was wounded and Ye Chenfeng was in danger. They could spare no one else from the battle above.
Yet the old demon still trapped beneath the Heaven-Reaching Pagoda needed enough Zhen Xuan to keep him suppressed. If they left him alone, it would not be long before he returned to the Profound Insight realm.
"There's no time to hesitate. We can't afford to worry about what comes after."
Venerable Mingxiao's brows drew tight. He turned to Luo Qianchou. "Qian Chou, saving Chenfeng comes first. We'll have to abandon the plan to capture this demon alive. We must kill him!"
Luo Qianchou had no objection.
