The sky above turned dark and was entirely void of light. Right now, it seemed exactly like doomsday.
Dragons after dragons descended from the layer of clouds and brought about a bloody windstorm.
A young lady who was among the survivors of the Purple Clouds Sect gritted her teeth. She glared at the powerful dragons in front of her with a deep hatred in her eyes.
She was only in the Advanced Aurous Core Stage and was extremely weak as compared to the dragons who had formed the Demon Soul. But she was not fearful, “Master, Mistress, both of your sacrifices were for nothing eventually. But I’m not afraid of death. Let’s see if I can bury myself along with a dragon. At least I can tell the both of you after I die that I didn’t let you down!”
As she said till here, an eye-blinding bolt of lightning surged from the young lady’s body. Her entire body seemed to turn into light and she developed a human figure that was formed entirely by lightning.
It was the secret move that Gu Lei had used earlier, the Ultimate Lightning Battle Form. It’s used in the most critical situations as a form of sacrifice!
The person unleashing this move would increase his or her own powers greatly in the short-term. But this move hurt the user first before the enemy was struck. The burden on the user was very great and could lead to death.
The Purple Clouds Sect cultivators beside her also became more determined. In an instant, the remaining few of them did the exact same thing as her. They were determined to fight till they were dead.
The courage and energy that they showed also motivated the Great Qin Empire cultivators.
To these Nascent Soul Stage and Aurous Core Stage disciples, death couldn’t waver their determination. The desolation and hopelessness they felt, as well as the indignance they bore from losing to the demons, gave them the greatest pressure.
Now that they couldn’t escape, the bunch of human cultivators went all out. They forsook their desire to escape and unleashed all their strength and methods to fight the dragons.
At this point, void space broke apart and a streak of greenish-black radiance landed from the sky. It descended like a shooting star.
As the radiance cut across the sky, the Dragon Awe Auspicious Clouds were torn apart. Wherever the radiance passed, fresh blood would be scattered. Blood started to rain down on the earth.
Dragon scales were crushed and battered dragon corpses were formed. Dragon claws and tails also blew apart.
This sudden change left everyone shocked. Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
A beautiful yet devastating scene was revealed in void space. As dragon blood scattered, broken limbs and bodies of many demonic dragons flew amidst the raining blood.
One fire dragon had it the worst. As it was struck in the waist by that black radiance, its body was cut into half and fresh blood splattered all over.
As the black radiance dissipated, a young lady in purple appeared in the center of the dragons. She held a greenish-black pole-ax and appeared extremely ferocious. She seemed like she wanted to destroy everything.
Her crimson-red, long hair flowed down and swayed with the wind, just like flames. But under such a circumstance, it also seemed to be stained with fresh blood. It was a truly petrifying scene.
Amidst the raining blood, it was difficult to discern whether the color of dragon blood was brighter or the color of this young lady’s hair was more piercing.
The remaining human survivors were all in a daze as they watched this scene. They couldn’t react in time.
The figure of the lady flashed and she shifted in front of another dragon instantly. The pole-ax in her hand swept across in an arc and the head of that dragon was chopped off.
From the aura of this lady, she did not seem like an Immortal Soul Stage cultivator. She was only in the Nascent Soul Stage, but she managed to kill the dragons so easily. Everyone was shocked by this.
She moved extremely swiftly and no one could see her actions or appearance clearly as she travelled in void space. But the Great Qin Empire and Purple Clouds Sect cultivators soon recognized that she was Yue Hongyan, Lin Feng’s Fourth Immediate Disciple!
Yue Hongyan was trained in the Martial Way. As she unleashed a burst of energy, it felt like the stars in the sky had descended. She was much stronger than the dragons who were of the same cultivation level as her.
As she was a lady, her body was more Yin-type. Cultivating the Martial Way which was more Yang-type was much more difficult for her as compared to a guy. But her body was extremely tough right now. There were not many who could match up to her below the Immortal Soul Stage.
Yue Hongyan did not seal space too. But the burst of her strength made her extremely quick, such that even many Immortal Soul Stage cultivators could not match up to her.
As she stepped forward, she had already broken void space apart and came in front of a dragon. She was so rapid that these dragons had no time to escape and could only face her ferocious and brutal offense.
The Extermination Pole-Ax in Yue Hongyan’s hands displayed the true meaning of her Martial Way. As she swept it, she could split open the Heavens and separate the seas.
This plot of space that was originally used by the dragons to massacre the humans was now changed into their own burial ground. Dragon corpses were abound.
Yue Hongyan’s figure flashed and the Extermination Pole-Ax slashed void space apart. A huge yellow dragon body was chopped into half at the center.
She did not retract her pole-ax and slashed her left palm towards a thunder dragon.
As that thunder dragon whined in pain, it summoned the Eight Barrens Divine Lightning to attack Yue Hongyan. Yue Hongyan did not even lift her brows and allowed the lightning to strike. As the pores on her body opened and closed, the luminaries seemed to flash and she turned the lightning that struck her into an energy that she absorbed.
Whereas her palm slashed the thunder dragon apart with a frightening momentum!
Yue Hongyan retracted her palm. Her skin was not stained with one drop of blood and her body was also not dyed red by any bloodstains. But the merciless aura that she exuded left everyone in shock.
Even the human cultivators were still jumping with fear although they knew that they were safe.
This crimson-red haired lady was even more frightening and brutal than the dragons.
Yue Hongyan scanned the Purple Clouds Sect cultivators. When she saw the young lady with the Aurous Core Stage cultivation from earlier, she could not help but asked, “Are you Shaolan?”
The lightning on that young lady’s body dissipated and her original appearance was revealed. Her face was very pale and she was very weak too. This was the aftereffect of using that ultimate move.
She looked at Yue Hongyan and relaxed a little. The resilience on her face faded away and her teats flowed out uncontrollably, “Elder…Elder Yue. Master and Mistress have both been killed…”
This young lady was the disciple of Gu Lei, Fang Shaolan. Yue Hongyan had also seen here before.
Yue Hongyan also knew Gu Lei and Li Kuiyin through Zhu Yi and Shi Tianhao. She was acquainted with them, especially with Li Kuiyin. They shared a rather good relationship with each other.
As she scanned the Purple Clouds Sect cultivators, she did not see Gu Lei and Li Kuiyin. Her heart had already sunk then, but hearing the news from Fang Shaolan made her even more crestfallen.
But in an instant, her eyes burned with intense flames once again. Her brows raised, as if they were swords that were dripping with blood.
Silence filled the place at where they were. The raging killer aura all around left everyone fearful.
Yue Hongyan did not turn her attention to the dragon corpses, but to the sky in the distance.
Over there, void space broke apart suddenly. Intense flames surged out and covered the sky in an instant. The entire Heavens and Earth turned into a sea of fire. A patch of flaming-red auspicious clouds revealed itself from the sea of fire, carrying a majestic aura.
From the patch of auspicious cloud, a crimson-red dragon subtly appeared. Its head could be seen but its tail couldn’t be seen.
Yue Hongyan’s gaze turned cold, “Fire dragon with the original true spirit?
A voice sounded from the flaming-red auspicious cloud, “You dare to kill my tribe members. Don’t think of leaving today!”
It was the Extreme Tooth Dragon King. Previously, he did not care about Fang Shaolan and the rest over here. Rather, he advanced forward to aid the Hou Ning Dragon King who was fighting it out with Shi Zongmao and his troops.
But after he realized a strong undulation of mana, he sensed that the fire dragons were in trouble. The Extreme Tooth Dragon King immediately rushed over and saw Yue Hongyan.
His huge dragon head poked out from the auspicious clouds and he stared at Yue Hongyan coldly, “I recognize you. You are Lin Feng’s Immediate Disciple.”
“Your Master cultivated my best friend, the Red Dragon King, into his avatar and hurt the Earth Dragon King and Azure Sky Dragon King. While you have massacred my tribe members. Today, I will use your blood as an offering to my tribe members.”
“You, it’s only the beginning!”
As the Extreme Tooth Dragon King growled, the flaming-red auspicious clouds expanded quickly. A sea of fire covered Yue Hongyan and the rest.
Fang Shaolan stared at the Extreme Tooth Dragon King. Even though this was just a simple action, her soul felt as if it was about to be crushed. She groaned, but did not shift her gaze away. She shouted, “Elder Yue, this fire dragon killed my Master and Mistress!”
Yue Hongyan glared at the Extreme Tooth Dragon King coldly and did not speak. As she waved her Extermination Pole-Ax, she unleashed the Heaven-Crossing Squall. The Heaven-Crossing Squall initiated the Nine Heavens Formless Squall which threatened to tear the sea of fire apart.
“Shaolan, leave first with the rest.” Yue Hongyan unleashed a streak of mana that gathered Fang Shaolan and the rest of the human survivors. After that, they were sent out of the sea of fire.
The Extreme Tooth Dragon King roared and spat out a line of fire. This line of fire came straight towards Yue Hongyan.
After Yue Hongyan sent Fang Shaolan and the rest out, her spear technique changed and the Heaven-Crossing Squall into the Unstoppable Thunderstorm. A booming thunder roar sounded in the Heavens and Earth, as if it wanted to tear void space apart. A brutal force received the attack of the line of fire. The thunderstorm that blew apart also crushed the line of fire.
As the line of fire was destroyed, flames were scattered. This flames that were scattered were so lethal that not even ordinary Nascent Soul Stage cultivators could handle.
But Yue Hongyan had no intention of defending. Her pole-ax shook in void space and her spear technique became more fluid. Countless projections of the spear could be seen as Yue Hongyan struck relentlessly, destroying every ball of flame that came towards her.
And at this point, the Extreme Tooth Dragon King burned with flames as he roared. He burst straight towards Yue Hongyan.
Yue Hongyan flashed with purple light and an armor appeared on her body. Countless incantations appeared on the armor and a brutal killer aura spread.
The sky cracked open and both the Star of Extermination and Seven Merciless Stars were extremely bright. The brutal powers of the luminaries supplemented Yue Hongyan, causing the killer aura around Yue Hongyan to become even more intense.
As she jerked her pole-ax, she had no intention of giving way. She stomped repeatedly and broke apart the barriers of space, as she actively attacked the Extreme Tooth Dragon King.
