Given the current power of the Dan Tower, even if others are envious, they wouldn't dare to do anything foolish.

Some sects and forces that coveted the Demon Fire Stone resources but dared not oppose the Pill Tower alone were also secretly supporting the Heavenly Nether Sect, letting the Heavenly Nether Sect be the one to take the lead.

However, Sect Master Youmingzi is missing, and Tianming Laoyao is only at the level of a half-saint. They are powerless to resist those few Dou Sheng.

Furthermore, due to their differing styles of conduct, the Tianming Sect and the Pill Tower do not get along. Even if they pledge allegiance to the Pill Tower, the Pill Tower may not accept them, especially since the Tianming Sect and the Soul Palace had previously been quite close.

During this period, the Tianming Sect had clashed with the Danta troops stationed here many times. Although both sides suffered losses, the demon fire stone resources they obtained brought them considerable benefits.

Therefore, the Tianming Sect, supported by many established forces in Zhongzhou, also engaged in frequent battles with the Pill Tower on the Demonfire Plain during this period, with small battles every three days and large battles every five days, making it quite lively.

……

"clang!"

The two heavy swords, imbued with powerful battle aura, clashed violently, sparks flying. One of the swordsmen was clearly weaker, and he was immediately forced back dozens of steps, his face turning pale as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

But he had no time to worry about his internal injuries. His eyes quickly swept around, and when he saw the Dan Tower members who had suffered heavy casualties, his eyes turned bloodshot.

"Hehehe, Elder Qiuling, hand over all the Demonfire Stones. We've been watching you for over half a month."

The figure who had injured the man with a single sword strike stood on the void, laughing strangely. He was dressed in a black robe, and judging from the badge on his chest, he was actually a member of the Heavenly Nether Sect.

"A bunch of idiots from the Pill Tower dared to mine Demon Fire Stones within the territory of my Heavenly Nether Sect! They're courting death!"

A chilling laugh echoed from all around, followed by the sound of wind breaking as dark figures appeared in the surrounding sky, encircling the dozens of blood-covered figures in the center.

"Find a way to fight our way out!"

A cold glint flashed in Qiu Ling's eyes. He hadn't expected that there would still be people in Zhongzhou who dared to offend the Pill Tower.

"kill!"

Upon hearing this, the dozens of figures began to breathe heavily, and then, with red eyes, they charged towards the encirclement.

"Kill them all, hang their heads up, and send them to the Pill Tower."

In mid-air, an old man with a gloomy face glanced indifferently at those who were stubbornly resisting, and said calmly.

"Yes!"

Behind the old man, a man immediately responded with a sinister expression and respect. However, just as he took a step, he suddenly found that his body stiffened.

This person reacted quickly, immediately turning his head to look at the highest-ranking elder. But just as he turned his head, he saw the indifferent elder's head suddenly fly off into the air, and blood shot into the sky like a pillar of blood.

"Hanging up heads and sending pill towers, the Heavenly Nether Sect these days... they really have some nerve."

Under the man's horrified gaze, the space behind the headless old man slowly rippled, and a figure gradually emerged.

“Elder?!”

The sudden turn of events caused everyone present to stop what they were doing. The henchmen of the Heavenly Nether Sect stared at the headless corpse with deep horror in their eyes. As blood spurted out, a blood-soaked head fell from the sky, rolling a few times on the ground. The face of the head remained frozen in its deathly coldness, a chilling sight to behold.

"Who...who are you?! This is Tianming Sect territory!"

The man, whose status was clearly much higher than the others, stared in horror at the figure that appeared in mid-air. After a moment, he suddenly shouted loudly, as if he wanted to vent his horror in this way.

"Has the Heavenly Nether Sect's influence actually extended this far?"

The figure in the sky gradually solidified, revealing himself to be Xiao Jue, who had broken through the space of the demonic fire. He glanced indifferently at the dozens of people from the Tianming Sect dressed in black, but a hint of coldness surged in his dark eyes.

The chill emanating from Xiao Jue's eyes caused the man's hands and feet to turn icy cold, and even the fighting spirit within his body seemed to freeze at that moment.

If the other party could easily kill Protector Mo, whose strength reached the level of a five-star Dou Zun, then dealing with them should be an extremely easy task as well.

"The idea is too tough, retreat!"

The thought flashed through his mind, and the man made a decisive move without saying another word. He retreated rapidly, and only when he was a hundred paces away did he shout.

Upon seeing him immediately turn and run away, the rest of the guys' expressions changed. They didn't care about Captain Liu and the others anymore, and turned around and fled in panic.

Upon seeing this, Qiu Ling and the others breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if they had survived a disaster, leaving them feeling completely exhausted.

"Having killed so many people, how can we leave so easily? The people of my Dan Tower are not easy to kill."

In mid-air, Xiao Jue gazed indifferently at the fleeing shadows, lightly stomping his foot on the void, and an invisible wave spread out with lightning speed.

"Pfft!"

As this invisible wave quietly spread, in about half a breath, the dozens of figures that had scattered and fled in the distance suddenly froze.

Then, one by one, heads flew into the air under the impact of the blood pillars, finally falling to the ground with thuds, staining the ground red with blood, making it look extremely bloody.

Seeing this, Qiu Ling and the others felt a chill run down their spines. They hadn't even seen how Xiao Jue had made his move, yet those Tianming Sect experts, whose strength far surpassed theirs, had all been turned into headless corpses.

"Thank you for your righteous rescue. I am Qiu Ling, the Grand Elder of Danta. I will never forget your life-saving grace!"

Qiu Ling quickly suppressed his fear and respectfully bowed to Xiao Jue in mid-air. Although the other party looked extremely young, in this world, strength is paramount.

This terrifying strength, capable of killing a Dou Zun expert with a mere gesture, was enough to earn his respect; this person was at least a Half-Saint.

Xiao Jue chuckled and said, "What, doesn't the Grand Elder recognize me?"

The Pill Tower once had two Grand Elders: one was the Grand Elder of the Pill Tower's Grand Elder Council, who was a two-star Dou Sheng, and the other was Qiu Ling, who was the Grand Elder of the Pill Tower's Elder Council.

"Who are you?" Qiu Ling was stunned for a moment, looking at Xiao Jue with a surprised expression.

"Fool!" Xiao Jue couldn't help but curse aloud, saying, "Is your position as an elder in the Pill Tower just a nominal one?" (End of Chapter)
