In the blink of an eye, Yu Chang suddenly spat out a crimson bead, which shot straight toward Liu Ruyan like a bolt of lightning.

Upon seeing this, Liu Ruyan's expression changed slightly. Her figure moved swiftly like a ghost, easily dodging the fierce attack of the round bead.

The ball landed heavily on the ground, followed by a deafening explosion that seemed to tear the entire world apart.

After the explosion, a huge crater was blasted into the ground, with dust flying everywhere and smoke billowing in.

Liu Ruyan's eyes instantly turned icy cold, and she rapidly waved her folding fan, like a sudden storm.

Several sharp sword energies intertwined like lightning, forming a dense and impenetrable sword net that swept towards Yu Chang with overwhelming force.

Undeterred, Yu Chang spread her wings and soared high, attempting to break through the deadly net of swords.

However, the sword energy followed her like a shadow, tightly binding her and making it impossible for her to escape easily.

At this critical moment, Yu Chang suddenly sensed a dangerous aura.

She looked down and saw countless black tentacles emerging from the ground below. These tentacles, like venomous snakes, twisted and writhed, sweeping towards her at an astonishing speed.

Yu Chang was startled and tried desperately to dodge, but the tentacles were too fast and had already wrapped around her feet in the blink of an eye, putting her in a difficult situation.

Yu Chang struggled with all her might, only to find that the tentacles were tightening their grip. She knew something was wrong and decided to take a desperate gamble.

Yu Chang gathered all her divine power into her wings, flapping them to generate a powerful airflow, attempting to forcefully break free from the tentacles.

At the same time, she chanted an ancient incantation, and the crimson bead reappeared.

With the incantation, the orb shone brightly and shot straight toward the tentacle. A violent explosion occurred the instant they touched.

Taking advantage of the moment when the tentacles were blown apart, Yu Chang broke free of her restraints and flew into the air.

Seeing that her attack had failed, Liu Ruyan frowned slightly. She closed her folding fan, formed a hand seal, and her body radiated a blue light.

A moment later, a crack appeared in the space in front of her, from which billowing flames surged forth, rushing towards Yu Chang like a fire dragon.

Yu Chang deftly dodged the fire dragon in mid-air, then quickly flapped her wings and swooped down.

She chanted incantations and cast a defensive barrier, blocking the attack of the flames.

Seeing this, Liu Ruyan frowned slightly and shouted softly, "Break!"

She formed hand seals, and her divine power surged forth once more, flowing into the fire dragon.

With more power supporting it, the fire dragon became even more ferocious, and the temperature of the flames it spewed from its mouth rose sharply, causing the barrier to crackle and pop.

The once incredibly sturdy barrier began to crumble, as if it would break at any moment.

Yu Chang clenched her teeth, veins bulging on her forehead, concentrating all her energy to maintain the barrier.

She knew in her heart that if things continued like this, she would eventually be devoured by this powerful force.

Therefore, we absolutely cannot sit idly by and wait to be killed; we must find a way to fight back.

Just then, Yu Chang suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a relatively weak spot on the fire dragon's abdomen.

A thought struck her, and she took a deep breath, gathering all her strength into her fingertips.

Then, she suddenly fired a crimson beam of light at that weak point, hitting the target accurately.

The fire dragon, in pain, let out a painful roar, and its massive body trembled.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yu Chang quickly flew above the fire dragon, put her hands together, and prepared to launch the final attack.

With her movements, a powerful energy wave emanated from her body, distorting the surrounding air.

Finally, Yu Chang shouted, and a dazzling light shot out from her hand, directly hitting the fire dragon below.

With a deafening roar, the fire dragon's body exploded instantly, turning into countless sparks that dissipated into the air.

At the same time, Liu Ruyan suffered a backlash and staggered back several steps. Then, she spat out a mouthful of blood with a "poof," and her face turned pale.

But she showed no sign of backing down. Instead, she stared intently at Yu Chang, her eyes flashing with icy killing intent.

Just then, the light emanating from Yu Chang gradually faded, and she transformed back into human form.

Her eyes revealed a hint of fatigue, but more so a sense of solemnity and vigilance.

She stared intently at Liu Ruyan before her, her heart filled with doubt and unease.

Yu Chang knew that Liu Ruyan's strength was unfathomable, but she never imagined that the other party would be so powerful.

In the fierce battle just now, Yu Chang had exhausted all her strength and unleashed her most lethal move.

However, even though her attacks were as fierce as a storm, they only caused Liu Ruyan some minor injuries in the end.

Yu Chang was astonished, and at the same time gained a deeper understanding of Liu Ruyan's strength.

Liu Ruyan's strength exceeded Yu Chang's expectations, forcing her to reassess her opponent's abilities.

This battle made Yu Shang realize that she could no longer underestimate such a powerful enemy.

Only by going all out can we compete with Liu Ruyan.

Yu Chang frowned slightly, her expression grave as she pondered.

After a while, she suddenly raised her head and looked firmly at the dozen or so demon race Hongmeng Saint Emperors not far away.

Then, she reached out and beckoned to them, shouting, "Come and join me in taking her down!"

Upon hearing Yu Chang's shouts, the dozen or so demon race Hongmeng Saint Emperors exchanged glances and then rushed towards Yu Chang's direction without hesitation.

When they arrived at Yu Chang's side, Yu Chang whispered, "This person is terrifyingly strong. If we don't eliminate him, there might be some unpredictable changes in this great battle!"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Liu Ruyan calmly gazed at the dozen or so people led by Yu Chang, her expression indifferent and showing no fear whatsoever.

This great battle was undoubtedly a life-or-death test for the Soul Devouring Clan. They numbered only about 20,000, while their opponents were a coalition of various races, numbering in the hundreds of thousands.

In terms of both numbers and overall strength, the Soul Devouring Clan is clearly at a significant disadvantage and has virtually no chance of winning.

However, they had no way out but to fight with their backs against the wall, striving for that slim chance of survival.

As the Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan, Liu Ruyan was well aware of the enormous responsibility she bore.

At this critical moment, she cannot be timid, much less back down.

Because if she were to encounter any problems, or choose to escape alone, then all members of the Soul Devouring Clan would perish here today, without a single one escaping.

Therefore, even if she might die in battle, she would fight to the very end.
