Lian Juyong’s eyes blazed with fire as he mustered his remaining strength, swinging his heavy hammer and smashing the demonic being that was rebounding from the array into over a dozen large pieces that scattered away.
However.
This strike drained all of his remaining energy, leaving him with barely enough to maintain flight. His body wobbled, and the heavy hammer in his hand felt as if it weighed a million pounds and was difficult to lift.
At the same time, two other demonic beings were dragging their massive bodies towards him, roaring as they charged.
Lian Juyong’s face changed, but the rage in his eyes continued to rise, never ceasing.
“Die!”
At this moment, his energy had been exhausted, but as the fury surged, a new power emerged from deep within his body.
His body cultivation broke through at this critical moment.
However.
Just as he was about to swing his hammer, a figure descended, and with a flash of golden light, the two Golden Core demonic beings charging towards him were slaughtered.
It was Han Yi who had rushed over.
Han Yi’s gaze fell on the angry Lian Juyong, and his eyes flickered slightly.
He recognized Lian Juyong. There weren’t many Golden Core cultivators in the eighteen Immortal Cities. Before Han Yi left, there were five, including Tian Boyi and Lian Juyong before him.
This refiner master had broken through in body cultivation, but his inner energy was depleted, and his combat power was rapidly declining.
“Daoist Lian, I’m Han Yi from Xuandan Sect. You temporarily retreat into Huolian City. I’ll wipe out these demonic beings first, and when I leave, you can take over the protection.”
Han Yi’s divine sense entered Lian Juyong’s mind, instantly transmitting the information.
Lian Juyong’s eyes inside his helmet erupted with joy. Although he had just made a breakthrough, he needed to recover, so he didn’t refuse, bowed his hand, and retreated into the array.
“Thank you, Daoist Han.”
At the same time, he saw Han Yi’s streak of golden light that had slaughtered the Golden Core demonic beings. One of them didn’t reassemble and completely disintegrated, while the other reassembled with great difficulty. The power was much stronger than his previous heavy hammer strikes.
“That dagger.”
“It should be the Demonic Dagger.”
“However, the Demonic Dagger should be in the hands of the Heavenly
Mechanism Ancestor. How does this Golden Core cultivator from Xuandan Sect have this dagger?”
-Han’s surname, I haven’t heard of it before. He should be a newly promoted Golden Core, but his strength seems much stronger than mine. It should be impossible for him to be a newly promoted Golden Core.”
“Strange.”
As a refiner master, Lian Juyong had studied and researched many magical treasures in the world. Naturally, he was familiar with the Demonic Dagger.
At this moment, not only was he puzzled by the Demonic Dagger, but also Han Yi’s identity. However, it was wartime and not the time for questions.
Regardless, Han Yi’s appearance allowed Lian Juyong to breathe a temporary sigh of relief.
He looked up at Xuanxue Peak in the distance, a thought emerging in his heart. It seemed that the battle on Xuanxue Peak had finally come to an end, and in the end, Xuandan Sect had won.
On the other side.
After Han Yi used the Demonic Dagger to slaughter two Golden Core demonic beings, his brow furrowed again as one of them had not been killed but instead reassembled and charged towards Han Yi again after the first attack.
However.
After using the Demonic Dagger to kill the second time, the Golden Core demonic being no longer moved and completely turned into dead remnants.
-It seems that the Demonic Dagger’s killing effect on the demonic beings of the Blood Sea is not absolute, but also depends on the strength.
-The second demonic being I just killed was slightly stronger than the first one, so even with the Demonic Dagger, it couldn’t be killed in a single attack. It needed a second round.”
While his thoughts raced, Han Yi charged towards the third demonic being.
This time.
After a full stick of incense, which is almost thirty minutes, Han Yi had almost eradicated the demonic beings outside of Huolian City. With only a few remaining, they were left to the cultivators outside the city and were no longer a concern.
“Daoist Lian, strong cultivators from the Zhennbei Immortal City will come soon to deal with the blood sea demonic beings riot. Please hold on for a few more days.”
This time, after clearing the demonic beings, Han Yi landed outside of the
Huolian City’s array and spoke to Lian Juyong, who was sitting on the city wall and recovering his mana within the formation.
Upon hearing this, Lian Juyong, as well as the other cultivators inside and outside the array, rejoiced greatly.
“In that case, I’m grateful to Daoist Han. Rest assured, even if 1 have to risk my life, I’ll hold Huolian City.”
Han Yi clasped his hands and soared into the sky.
This time.
He didn’t go to other Immortal Cities to eliminate the demonic beings but instead flew towards the Blood Sea. He wanted to investigate in advance what kind of abnormality had occurred in the Blood Sea, and whether it could be stopped to halt this tide of demonic beings.
The distance from Huolian City to the Blood Sea was less than ten miles. In less than half a minute, Han Yi arrived at the edge of the Blood Sea.
While flying all the way, down below was a red river that surged and undulated. At first glance, it looked like a river, but in reality, it was a torrent of demonic beings. Countless demonic beings crawled out from the Blood Sea, rushing in fear and competing to kill towards the Xuanxue Immortal City.
The demonic beings had dyed this road blood-red.
Among them, there were even Golden Core demonic beings. However, Han Yi did not pay them any attention, and instead, applied the Light Body Technique to its extreme limit. He only stopped when he reached the edge of the Blood
Sea.
Han Yi stood in the air at the edge of the Blood Sea, his light golden eyes emerging as he prepared to look deeper into the Blood Sea.
At this moment.
A faint voice echoed in his ear.
“If 1 were you, I would never do this.”
Han Yi was suddenly shocked, his mana surged out, forming two pitch-black shields in front and behind him, the Wind and Fire Shields.
During his battle with Huang Yu, the third-stage Spirit-killing Illusion Array had been shattered, so now his primary external defense relied on the Wind and Fire Shields.
At the same time, he did not sense any hostility from this voice, so his instinct suppressed the urge to use the Qi Observation Skill.
However, as soon as the shields materialized and the thought arose, the voice sounded again.
“No need to be nervous.”
“I am one of the envoys of Zhennbei, Zhennbei Envoy, Song He, under the command of Duke Zhennbei.”
At these words, a middle-aged man appeared three hundred meters away on Han Yi’s side, at the edge of the Blood Sea.
Upon hearing the words “Duke Zhennbei,” Han Yi felt slightly relieved. Although he withdrew the Wind and Fire Shields, his mana remained hidden and ready to launch at any moment if necessary.
“Zhennbei Envoy.”
Han Yi was intrigued; he was not unfamiliar with this term. After all, the Xuandan Sect, Yuan Beast Sect, and Blood God Sect were all under the jurisdiction of Duke Zhennbei. After the Xuandan catastrophe, Han Yi had learned about Duke Zhennbei’s situation.
Duke Zhennbei was one of Daqian’s seven dukes.
Daqian’s seven dukes were divided into two categories: hereditary and non-hereditary.
Duke Zhennbei was a hereditary duke, and Zhennbei Immortal City was his fiefdom.
To understand Duke Zhennbei, one must first understand the three major forces under his command.
Zhennbei Envoy, Wind Chasing Official, and Struggle Immortal Pavilion.
Among them,
Zhennbei Envoy was the most powerful of the three.
It was more of a small team than a force, as Zhennbei Envoy referred to only four people.
Four Golden Core Peak cultivators.
Song He was one of the four envoys..
