Sixty years of blacksmithing, a single hammer blow forging a celestial being.

A deafening roar!

Countless sparks flew, and fireworks soared.

Lu Xue spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward.

Its body was charred and billowing black smoke as it fell straight into the woods.

At the same time, two beams of light were rapidly rushing towards them from the horizon.

One was billowing black smoke, which was the Extreme Yin Ancestor.

Behind him was a milky-white light shield; it was Wan Zhenshan.

Wan Zhenshan spotted Lu Xue, who had been knocked away by the fire phoenix, and was immediately taken aback.

They no longer cared about the Yin Ancestor.

"Saintess!"

He shouted and rushed swiftly and helplessly toward the saintess who was about to land.

He caught the saintess in one swift motion.

The saintess was now charred black from the fire, and blood was spilling from her mouth.

He looked as if he were barely breathing.

The Holy Maiden was actually severely injured by Li Ping'an's attack!

Upon seeing this, Wan Zhenshan was terrified.

The Holy Maiden must not be harmed!

You should know that Lu Xue is the Holy Maiden of Lingtian Holy Land.

If something happens to her at the Tongtian Sword Sect, and she loses her life.

How could the Holy Lord of Lingtian Holy Land spare him?

How could they possibly spare the entire Tongtian Sword Sect?

In his panic, he no longer cared what the Yin Ancestor was doing in this forest.

He quickly picked up Lu Xue and rode away on a cloud.

He needed to take Lu Xue back to the sect as soon as possible so that she could receive treatment using the array in the sect's main hall.

Without Wan Zhenshan chasing them.

The Yin Ancestor swiftly and effortlessly rushed into the forest.

With just a slight sense, he locked his gaze on Li Ping'an.

"My magical artifact is on you!"

The Old Ancestor of Extreme Yin spoke in a cold tone, exuding a chilling aura.

At this moment, Li Ping'an had just unleashed the Fire Phoenix with all his might, severely injuring Lu Xue.

Before they could catch their breath, they suddenly saw an old man in a gray robe with a white beard and white hair in the sky.

He stared at me with a sinister look on his face.

In that instant, he felt as if he were being stared at by a prehistoric beast.

I involuntarily got goosebumps all over my body.

Who is this person? So strong!

This made Li Ping'an unable to muster even the slightest thought of resistance.

"Give me my treasure now!"

Seeing Li Ping'an's dazed expression, the Yin Ancestor stopped talking.

He swung his hand and grabbed at Li Ping'an.

A gust of cold wind swept over us.

Li Ping'an felt a sharp pain all over his body.

This person's aura far surpasses his own; he must be at least at the Nascent Soul stage or higher.

Facing a Nascent Soul stage monster head-on, Li Ping'an was terrified out of his wits.

There was even a moment when I felt like I couldn't move my body.

They looked like they were ready to be slaughtered at any moment.

Fortunately, he regained his senses at the last moment.

He quickly raised the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in his hand and roared.

"Do you want this? Here you go!"

After saying that, he used all his strength to throw the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in another direction.

The Banner of Ten Thousand Souls flew out, but it hadn't gone very far.

He was caught remotely by the Yin Ancestor and taken back into his arms.

Seeing his long-lost treasure return to his hands.

The Yin Ancestor was overjoyed.

He looked the Ten Thousand Souls Banner up and down, and after confirming that it was not damaged, he...

He then carefully tucked it back into his pocket.

Then, when he sensed his surroundings again with his divine sense.

But they discovered that the boy who had thrown out the Ten Thousand Souls Banner earlier had already vanished.

In an instant, they escaped several kilometers away.

"You took my treasure and now you want to run away!"

The Yin Ancestor naturally wouldn't let Li Ping'an off easily.

Instead of capturing the brat, skinning him alive, and extracting his soul into his own Ten Thousand Souls Banner, he decided to...

This matter will not end easily.

However, just as he was about to set off to capture Li Ping'an, he was...

But suddenly his brows furrowed.

It turned out that several extremely powerful forces were coming from three directions at the same time.

Oh no, the leaders of the other three sects have arrived!

The Old Ancestor of Extreme Yin's eyes narrowed.

The three sect leaders are naturally the leaders of the Crimson Fire Sect, the Giant Elephant Sect, and the Eastern Sage Sect.

They've come to support the Tongtian Sword Sect.

Although these four sects have never gotten along.

However, when faced with the invasion of the demon race.

As fellow sects belonging to the Lingtian Holy Land, they would not let the matter rest.

Before long, the three sect leaders had surrounded the Yin Ancestor.

"Extreme Yin! Why aren't you hiding in the Yin Ghost Sect? What are you doing here on the territory of our Lingtian Holy Land?!"

Lin Chaoye coldly sized up the Extreme Yin Ancestor.

The giant axe in his hand trembled incessantly, clearly eager for battle.

However, the Yin Ancestor did not answer.

He simply swept his gaze coldly over the three of them.

Suddenly, he said in a hoarse voice.

"I don't have time to waste with you all today! Now that I have the treasure, I'll be leaving!"

After saying that, the Extreme Yin Ancestor's figure suddenly turned into a wisp of black smoke.

It rolled towards the horizon.

"Still trying to escape!"

Lin Chaoye reached out with his large hand and suddenly grabbed at Ji Yin.

But then, from the billowing black smoke, several extremely ferocious ghosts were thrown out.

It collided with Lin Chaoye's large hand.

A powerful surge of spiritual energy immediately erupted.

Even the entire forest was trembling.

The extremely dark black smoke continued its relentless advance, instantly drifting several meters away towards the horizon.

In just a few breaths, it disappeared completely.

"Damn it! That old ghost's strength has increased so much again!"

Lin Chaoye withdrew his large hand and looked at the dark marks on his hand.

He couldn't help but stiffen.

After the Yin Ancestor fled the battlefield.

The Yin Gui Sect disciples who were fighting with the Tongtian Sword Sect disciples also retreated one after another.

However, their escape was not as convenient and easy as that of the Extreme Yin Ancestor.

The disciples of the Tongtian Sword Sect would not easily let these demon cultivators leave.

They were utterly routed and fled in disarray.

At least several thousand Yin Gui Sect disciples died in this battle within the Tongtian Sword Sect.

All of this was merely the work of the Yin Ancestor in order to retrieve his magical artifact.

They all became cannon fodder.

This is the incredibly cruel world of cultivation.

Not to mention that the Tongtian Sword Sect finally resolved the crisis of the Yin Ghost Sect.

Meanwhile, Li Ping'an was frantically fleeing through the forest.

He dared not stop for a moment and ran as fast as he could.

They were terrified that the Yin Ancestor would catch up from behind in the next second.

The methods of this Yin Ancestor are far more terrifying than those of the Tongtian Sword Sect.

They might skin him alive.

Even more so, if it were refined into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

It's absolutely terrifying to even think about.

The thought of these terrifying images made Li Ping'an's feet fly.

He kept running away frantically.

After running at full speed for half an hour, and confirming that there was no movement behind me, I finally made my move.

Li Ping'an then stopped.

He was so exhausted that he collapsed.

He grabbed a big tree and vomited violently, even bringing up stomach acid.

At that moment, he felt numbness in his hands and feet, as if he had suffered a stroke.

I can't take another step.

I'm so tired.

Despite his exhaustion, Li Ping'an felt a surge of joy at surviving a calamity.

After so many twists and turns, Li Ping'an finally escaped and survived!

Finally escaped that awful place, the Tongtian Sword Sect!

They finally escaped the clutches of the Holy Maiden Lu Xue!

From this day forward, she is a free woman!

From then on, birds could fly freely in the sky, and fish could leap freely in the sea.

The world is vast, and home is everywhere.
