Without even a chance to shriek, helpless demonic beasts met their demise abruptly.
A multitude of corpses, either sinking to the ocean floor or floating to the surface, swiftly dotted vast expanses of the sea with their diverse remains.
Nevertheless, from the cracks in the ocean bed, an incessant stream of demonic beasts continued to gush forth. They fearlessly barreled towards the direction of the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect, utterly disregarding their survival.
'Damn, their numbers are overwhelming!' Jiang Chen's brow furrowed deeply as his long sword sliced through the air once more.
Sword Qi emanated in countless waves with each sweep of his blade, claiming the lives of thousands, possibly tens of thousands of demonic beasts.
At the same time, Jiang Chen did not overlook his duty to monitor the information of that Dao Palace realm demon.
[Name: E Tianjiu
Realm: Late-stage Dao Palace (Middle-stage Dao Palace)
Status: Supporting character
Fate Value: 1218]
With a mere glance from his Villain's Eye, Jiang Chen gained a complete grasp of his adversary!
'E Tianjiu?'
'Following the fusion with that octopus-like demonic beast, his realm has temporarily ascended to the Late-stage Dao Palace.'
'Given his Fate Value, surpassing a thousand points... he doesn't seem like one who would fall effortlessly.'
'In Gu Ran's life history, it's probable that E Tianjiu is a formidable boss, with his demise likely succeeding those of characters like Ji Yilan.'
As Jiang Chen examined E Tianjiu's information panel, a whirlwind of conjectures began to stir within his mind.
Conversely, E Tianjiu was naturally aware of Jiang Chen, engaged as he was in the widespread massacre of the lesser demonic beasts.
'A Dao Palace realm cultivator here?'
'According to my estimations, we should still be approximately one million kilometers away from the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect. How is it possible for a Dao Palace realm human powerhouse to surface here?'
'Additionally, he seems to have mastered the profound teachings of the Sword Dao!'
E Tianjiu, gazing at Jiang Chen who was suspended high above the sea, was swept by a wave of astonishment.
Yet, he held no fear of Jiang Chen.
He was, after all, at the Late-stage Dao Palace realm, and not a typical representative of it.
He possessed a broader array of skills and was unpredictable!
Inevitably, any cultivator of an identical realm would lose in a face-off against him!
'Since fate has led me to a Dao Palace realm human cultivator here, I shall eliminate you first to honor our fallen Transcendence realm powerhouse, Long Tianlu!'
'Once I penetrate the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea and capture the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect, I will retaliate against the Purple Heaven Holy Land and avenge Lord Long Tianlu!'
E Tianjiu held this resolution in his heart, yet he was ignorant that the individual before him was the exact killer of Long Tianlu.
From his perspective, the slayer of Long Tianlu was surely an expert from the Purple Heaven Holy Land.
Given that the immense battle at the Purple Heaven Holy Land had just concluded, how could a Dao Palace realm powerhouse have strayed this far?
Thus, E Tianjiu immediately categorized Jiang Chen as a native of the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea.
How could a native of the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea match the might of the powerhouses hailing from the Purple Heaven Holy Land?
Yet, at that moment, an event contrary to E Tianjiu's expectations took place!
"Peak-stage Dao Palace realm?" Jiang Chen questioned.
"I didn't expect you could momentarily unleash such formidable combat power."
"Regrettably, it's still insufficient against me!" he declared, a hint of mockery emerging at the corner of his mouth.
His aura abruptly surged, instantaneously reaching the Peak-stage Dao Palace realm, and it didn't halt there but continued to ascend!
The lethal intent on E Tianjiu's face abruptly froze, and then his eyes bulged as if on the verge of popping out!
"Wha, what!!" he stammered, disbelief evident in his voice.
He had struggled to the brink of death to temporarily reach the Peak-stage Dao Palace realm, but Jiang Chen was already far beyond that.
This was a futile battle; his sacrifice had been in vain!
Frozen in terror, E Tianjiu was completely paralyzed, shaking uncontrollably, preparing to exert every ounce of his energy to escape.
"I understand you wish to flee." However, Jiang Chen offered a faint smile, his overpowering aura directly encompassing E Tianjiu!
"But do you believe you still have a chance?" he asked, confidence radiating from his voice.
E Tianjiu wouldn't surrender his life easily.
"Move out of my way!" he bellowed and charged full force towards the fissure in the seabed!
If he could reach the underwater cave saturated with Nether Demon Spiritual Qi, he might have a shot at survival!
If Jiang Chen dared to follow, he even had faith in turning the situation around.
"I told you, you have no chance, hehe." Jiang Chen laughed coldly, his words dripping with disdain.
The Great Dao of the Wind Element wound around him, and he transformed into an afterimage, intercepting E Tianjiu's escape route.
"Perish!" With bloodshot eyes, E Tianjiu roared, a massive axe materializing directly in his hand, targeting Jiang Chen and striking down with full force!
With this axe, E Tianjiu had employed all his strength!
Nevertheless, Jiang Chen's expression remained unchanged, "A trifling ploy!" he declared.
The long sword ascended in the air, resolutely blocking the giant axe!
Boom!
In an instant, a terrifying ripple of energy erupted.
The surrounding sea water was forcefully pushed aside, crafting a colossal sphere that resembled a vacuum.
