"Come on, don't say I'm bullying you. This is what you asked for. Don't blame me if you die. Please, all the seniors of the human race, bear witness." Qingyue exuded a terrifying demonic aura and transmitted her voice to the inner circle of the Supreme Induction Sect.
After she finished speaking, Ancestor Tianyi immediately responded.
"Rest assured, since it is the decision of the celestial elders, we will certainly not break the rules. However, I would like to advise you, young lady, to act within your capabilities," said Ancestor Tianyi calmly.
These words startled Qingyue. She felt as if the other party thought she couldn't beat Lin Aoxue and might die at Lin Aoxue's hands.
That's what Old Ancestor Tianyi said, but in reality, he was still quite worried.
The spectators from the Supreme Response Sect were equally worried, especially Elder Tianjian and his group.
“This power fluctuation is probably close to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul realm. Isn’t Aoxue being a bit too arrogant? Liuyun, why don’t you stop her?” Elder Tianjian frowned and looked at Ye Liuyun beside him.
Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun shrugged helplessly.
"I can't control her, elders. Don't worry, Ao Xue isn't the kind of person who's reckless and lacks confidence. The fact that she dares to challenge the other party shows that she has enough ability. Besides, if she fully activates her Feathered Immortal Body, she won't be afraid even if it's someone at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm," Ye Liuyun replied calmly.
In fact, Ye Liuyun really wanted to say that Lin Aoxue had a variety of life-saving pills, and even Nirvana cultivators would have a hard time killing her, so Ye Liuyun was not worried.
Moreover, this life-or-death battle is not just a contest of cultivation levels, but also a contest of inner strength.
That was the truth, and everyone immediately calmed down after hearing it.
"That's true. Let's check the situation on the other battlefields first. I feel that Xuan Tian and the others are under a lot of pressure." Elder Tianmu looked at the battlefield area where Xuan Tian and the others were located, his eyes quite solemn.
Faced with attacks from a demon of the same realm, Xuan Tian and his companions realized after a few more exchanges that they would have a hard time defeating their opponent. Although it was supposed to be a battle between people of the same realm, the demon's combat power was clearly a level above theirs. They quickly summoned a level-one magic weapon to defend themselves, and with the enhancement of the magic weapon, their combat power was significantly reduced.
However, don't assume that the demon race doesn't use magic weapons. The demon race's magic weapons are transformed from a part of themselves, called their physical magic weapons. For example, the eagle race's combat magic weapons might be a pair of sharp claws or wings.
"Damn it, is this the demon race prodigy from outer space? Damn it, the gap between me and Xuanmiao is getting bigger and bigger. She can defeat an enemy with one strike, yet I feel so much pressure." Xuantian was very unwilling, and at the same time, the fighting spirit on his body was getting stronger and stronger.
The battle between Lin Aoxue and Qingyue began. Qingyue waved her hand, and a blue whip appeared in her hand. She then lashed out at Lin Aoxue.
This whip was enough to easily cut a mountain range in half. Lin Aoxue certainly wouldn't take it head-on, so she quickly dodged. The whip's power missed its target and struck the mountain range below, instantly shattering a mountain peak into pieces.
This single attack told Lin Aoxue that the female demon before her was far more powerful than the demons she had encountered before.
After dodging the attack, Lin Aoxue immediately drew her sword and counterattacked, sending streaks of azure sword light toward Qingyue. However, Qingyue didn't bother to dodge, letting Lin Aoxue's attacks land on her. The sword light was deflected by a layer of azure scales, unable to harm Qingyue in the slightest.
"Master Xuanmiao, is this all you've got? Is this all you've got to be the leader of a major sect of the human race? Isn't that a bit too weak?" Qingyue said with some dissatisfaction.
Lin Aoxue frowned. She knew she had to use the power of her Ascension Immortal Body; otherwise, the gap was indeed too large, and she wouldn't even be able to break through the opponent's defenses.
"As you wish." Lin Aoxue took a deep breath, and then a burst of power erupted from her body, causing the demons present to show a rather solemn expression at the same time. That power fluctuation made them inexplicably uneasy.
The power surging from Lin Aoxue's body plunged into the clouds, forming a gate to immortality. The gate then opened, nourishing Lin Aoxue, whose power began to surge. In no time, she reached the eighth level of the Nascent Soul realm, almost equal to Qingyue's power.
"What's going on with this aura? Why do I feel a strange sense of dread?" Qingyue and the other demons looked visibly uneasy.
After Lin Aoxue improved her combat power, she fought Qingyue again. This time, Qingyue dared not be careless.
Meanwhile, on the battlefields of others, some demons and humans have already begun to suffer defeats.
A young Nascent Soul cultivator from the Supreme Response Sect was torn apart by a cultivator from the Eagle Clan; only his Nascent Soul managed to escape back to the Supreme Response Sect.
However, the demon race, such as the demons who fought against Yan Yu and Chen Yao, were quite unlucky, as they encountered two powerful cheat codes.
The creature that fought Yan Yu was a stone demon with immense strength and top-tier defense at this level. However, its defense was completely ineffective against Yan Yu's power, and it was sliced into countless pieces by Yan Yu's raging crimson sword light. In the end, it managed to escape from Yan Yu's grasp by relying on a secret technique.
"Ah! Damn it, what kind of power is this? It can actually devour and decompose my demonic power." The one fighting Chen Yao was a female bird demon. Faced with Chen Yao's strange power, she couldn't even put up a fight.
If Chen Yao hadn't been kind-hearted and hadn't held back slightly at the moment she was about to dismantle the opponent's demonic body, causing the opponent to be severely injured and forced to retreat—this was what Ye Liuyun had told them, to try not to use lethal force. He said it was a fight to the death, but he didn't say that they absolutely had to kill the opponent. If you kill too many people, you'll easily make enemies.
As for why Lin Aoxue had to resort to such ruthless measures, well, there was no other way. As the leader of the Supreme Response Sect, she needed to establish her authority and make these demons understand that the Supreme Response Sect was not to be trifled with.
Meanwhile, in a valley somewhere in the Skyfall Ridge, a terrifying demonic aura soared into the sky. As soon as this demonic aura appeared, a powerful demon god from a certain great clan who was watching the battle outside the Burial God Star felt her heart tremble for no apparent reason.
"What's going on with this power? Why is my bloodline power boiling? On the Burial God Star, something seems to be affecting my bloodline power. What's happening?" The female demon goddess immediately used her powerful divine sense to locate a certain place on the Burial God Star.
Upon closer inspection, a woman in red, who appeared quite languid, slowly emerged from a cave.
"Ah! After absorbing so much essence over the years, I've finally taken human form." The woman in red touched her face and exclaimed.
But just then, she seemed to sense something, so she looked towards a certain point in the sky. She stared in that direction for a while, then gave the other party a strange smile. This smile made the female demon god outside tremble. She quickly glanced at the white gauze dress she was wearing, which was now shimmering with a shocking glow.
This woman is a nine-tailed fox spirit, a demon goddess of the fifth heaven.
"What? You mean, the progenitor is still alive? How is that possible?" The Nine-Tailed Demon God was talking to the spirit of the Immortal Fox Robe on his body. This was a Demon Emperor's weapon, a treasure of the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor in the ancient times, and also a treasure passed down through generations of the Fox Clan.
Not only that, Bai Bing, who was sleeping in the Immortal Realm, seemed to sense the call of some power and instinctively woke up.
"Strange, what's wrong with me? It seems like some force is summoning me?" Bai Bing looked in a certain direction, puzzled.
Not only the fox clan, but just now, many great clans and gods also sensed some inexplicable, or rather, almost impossible, power fluctuations at the same time. Moreover, these fluctuations all originated from within the Burial God Star, and they went to check on them immediately.
For example, the current Golden Phoenix Demon God of the Phoenix Clan saw a pair of strange birds that puzzled them in an inconspicuous place on the Burial God Star. He almost immediately thought of something.
However, none of these powerful demon gods showed any particular reaction, as if nothing had happened.
The Flying Immortal Domain is undoubtedly the most bustling area. The powerful demon race members who come to the Flying Immortal Domain are mainly from the Dragon Clan, because the Flying Immortal Domain was originally the ancestral land of the Dragon Clan. The entire island belongs to the Dragon Clan, so all the young and powerful members of the Dragon Clan have gathered here to challenge the powerful human forces in the Flying Immortal Domain.
As expected of the royal family of the demon race, none of the dragons are ordinary. The weakest among them are all of the bloodline of the ancient dragon, a rare species from the primordial era. The young demon race powerhouses who challenged the Four Extremes Holy Land are direct members of the royal family of the dragon race. After all, the Four Extremes Holy Land is currently the strongest holy land.
The Dragon Clan is engaged in a fierce battle with Jiang Hongfei. Jiang Hongfei's strength is no joke; he is handling the Dragon Clan Crown Prince's attacks with ease.
"Human, you are very powerful. It seems you must be the number one human in this era. Killing you would be a great loss for the human race, wouldn't it?" The blond youth in light gold armor said arrogantly.
"Hmph! You can say that after you kill me." Jiang Hongfei snorted coldly, and then attacked again.
Not every battle can be decided. There are many human prodigies and demon powerhouses who are evenly matched. You want to kill me? Impossible. I want to kill you? Impossible too. When you get tired of fighting, you can only let it go for the time being and go back to rest.
As for the Immortal Realm of Immortality, there were also many powerful demons guarding its exterior. However, the people of the Immortal Realm of Immortality had no intention of coming out, and no one paid any attention to their provocations and shouts.
Ye Liuyun had already instructed them in one sentence: stay inside and don't come out. What can you do to me? Go ahead and attack me if you dare. I'm not coming out. Ye Liuyun has no sense of honor. He doesn't want to participate in this conflict between humans and demons.
The battles in the Nine Heavens Domain didn't last long. For example, in the Cloud Sect, the demon race completely crushed them. Murong Huan and the others were defeated after fighting them for dozens of rounds. But what puzzled them was that the other side could have killed them, but they only defeated them and then left. They never came back after that.
"Strange, I was prepared to die, why did these demons suddenly stop?" Jiang Yan returned to the Cloud Sect looking disheveled and covered in injuries.
Murong Huan and the others have also returned.
"I don't know. I feel like they intentionally spared our lives. Otherwise, it would be difficult for us to fight them. Sigh! The gap is too big. Our talents are actually not too bad, but staying in Yun Sect all the time is too limiting and our progress is too slow. After this battle, we'll probably have to leave Yun Sect for a while," Murong Huan said with a helpless expression.
The rest of the people nodded in agreement.
"Hey? I heard that Junior Sister Ye is doing very well in the Flying Immortal Realm. Why don't we discuss with our elders and take off our burdens to cultivate in the Flying Immortal Realm for a while?" Jiang Yan suggested.
This battle truly made them feel a sense of powerlessness.
"This? Junior Sister Ye, will you take us in? Come to think of it, we don't seem to have much of a relationship with her," Tantai Mingyue said hesitantly.
However, Ji Tianjiao quickly spoke up for Ye Liuyun.
"Don't worry, even though Sister Liuyun seems to want nothing to do with us, she is actually a very loyal person. I believe she won't refuse us if we ask."
This statement dispelled the doubts of the others; for them, it was indeed not enough, and they needed even greater power.
“That makes sense. In that case, let’s go and discuss it with the Supreme Elders. There’s really no need for us to stay here any longer,” Ji Chunling said.
They acted immediately, first tending to their injuries, and then went to find Fang Mingyu and the other previous leaders.
Fang Mingyu and the others are truly not qualified enough. They are still at the peak of the Four Extremes Mystic Realm, just a tiny bit away from the Transformation Mystic Realm. That tiny bit may be an insurmountable gap for many cultivators.
However, only a few medium-sized sects belonging to the Supreme Response Sect were spared by the demon race. But the sects in the Eastern Wilderness suffered greatly. The Nascent Soul level ancestors of those major sects were forced out to fight by these demon race experts. Since they were generally older and had reached the stage of cultivation, they had little resistance to the demon race's attacks. Except for a few sects with strong foundations, most of the Nascent Soul level ancestors of the sects were killed by the demon race experts. In a short time, the cultivation world of the Eastern Wilderness lost many Nascent Soul cultivators.
Moreover, it wasn't just sects involved; some reclusive Nascent Soul cultivators were also discovered by the demon race.
Not all cultivators knew about the demon invasion; only a few forces did. Those sects that were unaware of it viewed it as the sects attacked by the demons.
Their first instinct would definitely be to seek help from a higher-level sect, but that higher-level sect was also struggling to survive.
Only sects possessing powerful magical artifacts can barely repel invading enemies. For example, the four great families, when the demon race arrives, their young experts either use high-grade magical artifacts to fight or employ Nirvana-level treasures to drive them away.
Anyway, the agreement didn't forbid them from using higher-grade magic weapons. They just didn't want the writer's outstanding disciple to die. It's that simple.
Let's turn our attention back to the Taishang Ganying Sect.
The battle between Qingyue and Lin Aoxue continued. The two had been fighting for half an hour without a clear winner, and Qingyue was drenched in sweat.
"Damn it, how can this woman's methods last so long? If this continues, I'm sure I'll lose." Qingyue and Lin Aoxue faced off in a desolate mountain range.
It would have been very easy for Lin Aoxue to kill her, since she possessed a Heaven-Rank magic treasure. However, Lin Aoxue was rather arrogant and had no intention of using any power other than her own.
"Impressive! Although I don't know what's going on, I'm going to go all out from now on." Seeing that she couldn't defeat Lin Aoxue, Qingyue decided to reveal her true form for a fight. If she revealed her true form, she would directly possess the power of the ninth level of the Primordial Spirit Realm.
After she finished speaking, Qingyue's demonic energy erupted like a volcano, and then a huge blue serpent appeared in Lin Aoxue's sight. When a demon uses its true form to fight, it means that it has used its full strength.
After some thought, Lin Aoxue decided to reveal some of her methods, but she still did not intend to fully unleash her power as an immortal descending to the mortal realm.
"Good timing. Let me show you the techniques I've learned during this time."
"Domain." Lin Aoxue snorted coldly, and a special power emanated from her expression. This invisible power quickly enveloped her and Qingyue's true form.
Upon sensing this power, Qingyue couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"This? A domain? You, you actually comprehended this technique? Why didn't you use it just now?" Qingyue felt the space she was in being eroded by a strange power and realized something was wrong.
Because she may have underestimated the person in front of her.
"I haven't mastered this domain for long, and it's still incomplete. I'm just using you as a practice subject." As the domain fully unfolded, the space where the two of them were seemed to freeze in time, without any sound or shadow.
Lin Aoxue simply swung her sword lightly at Qingyue. This sword strike possessed invincible power, but it was not very stable. The sword energy turned around and struck Qingyue's body in one fell swoop.
Qingyue seemed to sense the aura of death, but fortunately, just as this force was about to split her body in two, another, even more powerful energy emanated from Qingyue's body. This energy enveloped Qingyue and she instantly disappeared from Lin Aoxue's attack line of sight.
Judging from the appearance, this must be Qingyue's elder who left some kind of power on her to protect her.
Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. It says that cultivators above the Nirvana level are not allowed to take action, but it doesn't seem like they are completely forbidden from using power above the Nirvana level. After all, the human race can use even more powerful treasures, so the demon race can't be without some precautions.
This is supposed to be a fight to the death between two elites, but if their elders have the power to protect them, would they really just sit idly by? Obviously, that's impossible.
Qingyue had already appeared in the sky, and she landed next to a beautiful woman in green with a look of terror on her face.
"Ancestor, it was me." Qingyue knew that it must have been their clan's ancestor who saved her.
The beautiful woman in green shook her head, said nothing, and turned to leave with Qingyue, seemingly no longer intending to participate in the battles between humans.
Lin Aoxue was quite displeased to see Qingyue being rescued.
She quickly returned to the area where the Supreme Response Sect's camp was located. Upon returning, Lin Aoxue glanced at the people behind her and discovered that several Nascent Soul cultivators had disappeared without a trace, their auras completely gone. She knew without a doubt that they were in the hands of the demon race, but the fact that the demon race had fewer cultivators made it even more obvious.
Chapter 716 Goodbye to the Two Kittens (4000 words + 1100 monthly votes bonus chapter)
For the demon race, this invasion was purely a test, to see just how many exceptionally talented cultivators had emerged in this era of the human race.
Oh, right, although the Immortal Realm of Longevity has no intention of fighting against the demon race, many of the people in the Cloud Realm have already clashed with them. The demon race doesn't choose its opponents based on sect strength, but rather on aura. As long as they detect the aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator, they will challenge them regardless of who they are.
For example, Jiang Wanling was approached by a demon at this time. The demon's true form was an aquatic creature. Aquatic creatures are monsters that live in rivers and lakes, unlike sea monsters, which live in the sea. Aquatic creatures are monsters that live in freshwater areas.
"Human, why are you running? You can't escape. Since I've set my sights on you, you either kill me or I kill you. You have no choice." The aquatic monster's body transformed into a raging flood, relentlessly pursuing Jiang Wanling.
This was the first time Jiang Wanling had encountered such a powerful monster. She had fought many monsters during her time out, but this was the first time she had encountered such a powerful aquatic monster.
The floods swept through everything in their path, leaving nothing but utter destruction.
Jiang Wanling is currently at the fifth level of the Nascent Soul realm, while the demon clan member who came to kill her is at the mid-stage of the Transformation Realm. Her combat power is still a bit weak. However, Jiang Wanling has powerful magic treasures, but she doesn't seem to have any intention of using them.
Why not use it? Because if she did, it would mean she couldn't defeat the opponent. Ye Liuyun told them that the Cloud Peak members she wanted had to be highly skilled in combat. She should avoid using overly powerful treasures if possible, as they wouldn't provide any improvement to her.
Jiang Wanling ran for a while, but was eventually caught up by the flood formed by the aquatic creature, and the water swallowed her up in an instant.
"Damn it, why is the water magic of this demon race so much stronger than that of the human race?" Jiang Wanling herself was a water-washing cultivator, but she felt that her power was not even in the same league as the other party's.
That's because the demon that attacked her was a river spirit, and its true form was water, so it was definitely no match for water-based magic.
Jiang Wanling was struggling to breathe due to the pressure of the water from all sides. She instinctively wanted to use the treasures within her body, but she managed to suppress it with her willpower.
“No, let’s use death to unleash my full power this time. His Excellency gave us three lives, wasn’t it so that we could be reborn through death?” Jiang Wanling understood Ye Liuyun’s intentions very well.
She admitted that with her current strength, she definitely couldn't win against her opponent, but she also understood that even if she couldn't win, some water-attribute cultivators might be able to defeat the water demon in front of her.
Human cultivators are strange. Being at the same level or grade does not mean that their combat power is the same. Some people do not have any special physique, but they can still defeat the strong with the weak and fight against those of higher levels.
This has nothing to do with their aptitude. In the cultivation world, aptitude can only help you go further. If you want to become powerful, you still have to rely on yourself.
Jiang Wanling has severely lacked life-or-death combat experience in recent years, so her combat strength is understandable. In addition, as a water-attribute cultivator, her understanding of water power is still too poor.
Jiang Wanling's defenses were quickly shattered by the opponent's power, and a suffocating feeling of death immediately enveloped her.
"Pfft! Cough cough!" Jiang Wanling kept choking on water and coughing under the power of the water demon.
She was like a person on the verge of death who had fallen into a lake, struggling incessantly until her consciousness faded into darkness, at which point she stopped struggling.
The water demon released Jiang Wanling only after it noticed that her life force had disappeared.
"Hmph! She's so weak." The water demon dropped Jiang Wanling's corpse and transformed into a woman dressed in a light blue dress. She glanced at Jiang Wanling lying on the ground and then left.
