The dragon's voice was sharp and piercing, echoing across the battlefield filled with the stench of blood. The dragons, who had been wavering, gradually lost their fear upon hearing this, replaced by ferocity and greed. They slowly adjusted their bodies and assumed an attacking stance once more, instantly intensifying the oppressive atmosphere in the air.
The cultivators' expressions turned extremely ugly in an instant. They were not fools; they vaguely guessed Bai Ying's plan. She originally intended to make an example of these demonic beasts by using forceful means to scare them into fleeing in panic.
But now, among these beasts, there is a dragon that has seen through Bai Ying's intentions. This realization is like a bucket of cold water being poured over their heads, filling them with despair and making them feel that they are doomed this time.
A powerful mix of intense joy and sorrow welled up within them, as if an invisible hand were relentlessly kneading their hearts, leaving them feeling suffocated by the unbearable pain.
However, before everyone could dwell on this despair for long, Bai Ying's clear, cold voice suddenly rang out: "Who told you that I'm already exhausted?"
Bai Ying stood proudly in mid-air, her clothes fluttering, and walked forward steadily step by step.
At this moment, she exuded an aura of awe, truly resembling a deity descended to earth, looking down upon all living beings.
As she spoke, Bai Ying lightly raised her right arm, once again raising the longsword high in her hand. A cold light gleamed on the blade. At the same time, the Lightning Seal slowly rose into the air, hovering above Bai Ying's head.
In an instant, the sky changed dramatically. The once azure sky was instantly covered by dark clouds, and darkness spread rapidly like ink.
A muffled rumble of thunder rolled in from the distant horizon, like a stampede of a thousand horses, making one's eardrums ache.
In the blink of an eye, thick bolts of lightning, like dragons emerging from the sea, carrying earth-shattering power, struck straight down at the dragon below.
The lightning struck the dragon accurately, enveloping its body in dazzling light. Electric currents crackled and surged across its massive form.
At the same time, Bai Ying's longsword drew an arc in the air. With her movement, the black flames that were originally hidden in the sword surged out instantly. These flames took on strange shapes and transformed into bewitching black flowers. The petals were as sharp as blades, carrying intense heat and mysterious power, and spread rapidly toward the surrounding monsters.
In the blink of an eye, the black flames surrounded the monsters in front of them, forming a scorching and dangerous fire cage that trapped them inside.
"Roar!" As the lightning released by the Lightning Seal roared, the demonic beasts let out a series of shrill screams, their cries intertwining. Some of the demonic beasts with low cultivation levels were simply unable to withstand the terrifying power of the lightning. Their bodies trembled in the air, and they plummeted straight down like kites with broken strings.
In an instant, thick bolts of lightning struck them precisely. With a hissing sound, the demonic beasts instantly turned to ashes, vanishing into nothingness.
The dragons stared wide-eyed at Bai Ying, their eyes filled with disbelief and a hint of fear. One of them stammered, "You...you can still attack?" At this moment, their bodies were charred black from the lightning strike, emitting a pungent, burnt smell. Their massive forms writhed and twisted uncontrollably in the raging current, writhing in agony.
Unexpectedly, Bai Ying said again, "Why can't I attack? Take this!"
She actually swung her sword at the group of monsters again.
This time, her swordplay was even more ferocious than before.
As the sword was swung, the surrounding space seemed to distort, the air was instantly torn apart, and a sharp whistling sound was heard. Wherever the sword's force reached, the two dragons had no time to react. Their massive bodies were cleaved in two as if by an invisible giant hand.
Blood gushed from the broken ends, spraying out and crashing heavily to the ground along with their bodies.
Everyone stared wide-eyed at the scene before them, as if frozen in place, unable to move. In an instant, the whole world seemed to fall into dead silence, with only the sound of the wind whistling in their ears.
Only now did the demonic beasts truly feel a deep-seated fear. The ferocity and arrogance that had filled their eyes were gone, replaced by boundless panic and disarray. They dared not linger there even a moment longer; their earlier belief in the dragon's claim that Bai Ying was dying had long since vanished from their minds.
They turned around and fled desperately into the distance, their figures disheveled and panicked.
Even those usually majestic and arrogant dragons were now completely devoid of their former aura, tucked their tails between their legs, and fled as fast as they could, fearing that if they were even a step too slow, they would become the dead souls under Bai Ying's sword.
Bai Ying looked at the scene before her and finally curled up the corners of her mouth.
She felt that she had no strength left in her entire body.
This battlefield is treacherous and deceitful. How could she possibly drain all her spiritual energy at once and then put herself in danger again?
Her spiritual power was drained in three separate instances.
After the third attack, she had no spiritual energy left in her body.
At this moment, she was truly at her last gasp, on the verge of collapsing at any moment.
She was betting that she would scare these monsters away at this moment.
Fortunately, she made the right bet...
