Chapter 391: A new kind of beast 2!

Yao Lian's eyes gazed over at Zahra Ashante and Yu Hua as she muttered, "Mere 9th level of Monarch Astral Stage..."

Yu Hua's gaze narrowed and she glanced at Ning Xue who was floating beside her "Sister Xue, just now... our blades."

A frown etched Ning Xue's face and she conjured golden flames on her palm "Both of you don't fight her. Return to the artifact or protect Ying and Suyin."

"She is in the Half-Step Empyreal Stage."

Upon hearing this, Zahra Ashante raised an eyebrow "Should I go and call Tian-

*swish* In the next instant, Yao Lian appeared in front of Zahra Ashante, her claws outstretched aiming at her neck.

Ning Xue's gaze narrowed and as Yao Lian's claws inched close to Zahra Ashante *swish*

H-Huh? Yao Lian was taken aback as her claws just cleaved plain air and her pink eyes wandered around. 'Where did she go?'

*sleesh* At this time, another sharp sword pierced through the air and Yao Lian quickly turned her hand.

*clank* She caught the blade by her palm, the power behind the attack causing her hair to flutter, as she gazed into the calm eyes of Yu Hu.

*thoom* But a sudden burst of white energy burst forth from the sword and Yao Lian was sent spiraling into the air.

Yao Lian was bewildered as she balanced her body mid-air "What the- She is just 9th level of Monarch Astral Stage..."

Her pink gaze fell on the sword in Yu Hua's hand and she muttered "Ahh... Mythic grade weapon, no wonder."

*swish* At this time, Zahra Ashante reappeared from the artifact and sighed "Entering the artifact was the best call."

Dashing through the air, Ning Xue approached Yao Lian "Hell Fire Chains."

Just like before, chains forged of pure gold blazing with golden brilliance swiftly appeared around Yao Lian trapping her body with the fiery chains.

But the chains passed through her physical body and Ning Xue's eyes narrowed "Above..."

*swish* A sword is in Ning Xia's grasp and she slashed at the empty air above Yao Lian's head.

*clank* Ning Xue smirked at Yao Lian who had just appeared in the empty air and blocked her blade with her claws.

*swish* Yao Lian again appeared in front of her and punched at her.

As Ning Xue was about to block her punch, she felt the pink eyes glaring at her and her body suddenly went numb. 'Huh Wha-' *thoom*

*boom* Yao Lian's punch landed on her abdomen and she was crashed down to the floor as debris and dust flew around in the area.

Seeing this Yao Lian giggled mischievously.

However, her amusement was short-lived. In the very next moment, Ning Xue burst forth from beneath the rubble, debris scattering in all directions with pink electricity still surging through her body.

Ning Xue clasped both of her palms "Eternal Inferno prison."

*feen* The morning sky became even brighter as the air itself burned in golden flames. *woooshhh* Suddenly arrays of fire runes formed around Yao Lian, forming a round prison-like structure.

Huh? Yao Lian was startled by the sudden formation.

Ning Xue didn't stop, she was dead set on roasting this bitch today "Purifying blaze!"

As she muttered through words, a glint of golden energy passed through her eyes.

*FEEEEENNNNNNNN* The 'Eternal Inferno Prison' burned brightly with golden flames, reaching the highest temperature that could be extracted from the golden flames for her cultivation prowess.

"Arghhhhhhh!!!" The deafening cries of anguish screeched across the surroundings, causing ripples in the air as the sound waves reverberated.

Yao Lian felt the Empyreal flames searing through her nerves and gritted her teeth in pain 'I-I can't break away from this array formation."

The flames continued to burn brightly and the painful cries of the Yao Lian trembled in the air.

A little later, the flames disappeared, and Ning Xue gazed at the deep hole in the ground with some molten lava.

Amidst the fuming smoke, Yao Lian was kneeling on the ground with half of her robes burned and her pink eyes quivering in pain.

A round pink barrier is surrounding her and she took deep breaths "W-Without this, I might have been dead, and on top of that, I had to use my life energy... Empyreal flames are frightening."
