Bai Di was trembling with fear at the sight before him.
"How is this possible? How can her growth rate be so terrifying?"
Bai Di roared wildly in her heart, her heart filled with doubt and resentment almost consuming her.
Even when she was in the Bai family, she still had some difficulty dealing with cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage.
After a fierce battle, although they finally succeeded in killing the powerful enemy at the Nascent Soul stage, the time and energy consumed were enormous.
However, in just a short time, Bai Ying has undergone a complete transformation. She can now hold her own against three Nascent Soul stage experts on her own, without being at a disadvantage. This earth-shattering change is beyond Bai Di's comprehension.
"Why? Why can this damn bastard always do things that are so unattainable for me so easily?"
Bai Di's eyes were bloodshot, and jealousy raged like a mad beast in her chest.
She had never understood why Bai Ying's cultivation speed far surpassed that of ordinary cultivators. Once, she naively thought that as long as she seized Bai Ying's spiritual root, she could replace her, trample Bai Ying underfoot, and become the focus of everyone's attention.
Even with that spiritual root within her own body, and even after she absorbed all of the Bai family's Grand Elder's power, she still appeared so small and so vulnerable when she stood before Bai Ying.
"God, why are you so biased? Why do you favor her so much, but are so cruel to me? This is not fair, it's so unfair!"
Bai Di bit her lower lip tightly. Her originally pretty face was now twisted and ferocious due to extreme jealousy and resentment.
She stared intently at Bai Ying's figure. At this moment, the three experts of Xingyao Sect were locked in a stalemate with Bai Ying, their spiritual energy surging and radiating light.
Without the slightest hesitation, she shouted at the top of her lungs to the people of the Star Glory Sect, "Attack her spiritual root! Her spiritual root is a Spirit Gathering Pearl! It's far less stable than an ordinary spiritual root. As long as we take that pearl away, she'll be finished!"
Bai Ying, who was originally focused on confronting the three Nascent Soul stage experts, suddenly narrowed her eyes dangerously, a cold glint flashing in them.
She turned her head sharply, her gaze fixed on Bai Di.
Bai Ying never expected that before she could even crush the stolen spiritual root in Bai Di's body, this guy was already so eager to destroy her Spirit Gathering Pearl, attempting to put her in a hopeless situation.
Upon hearing Bai Di's words, the Nascent Soul stage experts' eyes flashed with ferocity. They exchanged glances, understanding each other perfectly. Almost simultaneously, they abruptly turned, their fierce attacks aimed at Bai Ying's various parts of her body abruptly ceasing, and they all locked onto Bai Ying's dantian.
In an instant, the space around Bai Ying seemed to be distorted by these three powerful forces, forming a huge vortex of spiritual energy.
A fierce wind howled, sand and stones flew, and the surrounding trees were uprooted by the powerful force and torn to pieces in mid-air. The attacks of these people were extremely ruthless, each move aimed directly at Bai Ying's vital points, clearly intending to kill her and seize the Spirit Gathering Pearl.
While Bai Ying was fiercely fighting against three Nascent Soul stage experts, she was distracted and kept her eyes fixed on Bai Di.
Her hands clenched quietly, each finger seemingly containing boundless power, her nails digging deep into her palms.
In an instant, Bai Di felt an invisible yet terrifyingly powerful force, like a pair of giant hands forged from steel, suddenly gripping the spiritual root within his body.
A sharp pain struck instantly, as if a thousand steel needles were piercing the depths of her soul at the same time. Her body convulsed uncontrollably, and she let out a shrill scream. She rolled on the ground in agony, her face contorted beyond recognition by the excruciating pain.
Seeing that Bai Di had suddenly suffered a severe injury, Bai Yanfeng rushed towards Bai Di.
He quickly pulled her trembling body into his arms, trying to share her pain with his own strength, while frantically thinking in his mind how to help Bai Di sever the terrible connection between him and Bai Ying.
However, this spirit originally belonged to Bai Ying. Bai Ying wanted to destroy her own spiritual root. Who in this world could truly stop her?
Bai Yanfeng was sweating profusely, large beads of sweat rolling down his cheeks. He glared angrily at Bai Ying, shouting furiously, "Someone kill Bai Ying quickly! Xiao Di is dying!"
The Nascent Soul stage experts each unleashed their magical artifacts. Instantly, a brilliant light shone forth, the radiance of various magical treasures intertwining together.
They swiftly erected layer upon layer of protective shields radiating powerful spiritual energy, like building a fortress, encasing Bai Di in an attempt to sever the connection between Bai Di's spiritual root and Bai Ying. With their combined efforts, Bai Di's expression finally eased slightly, and his painful groans gradually subsided.
However, just when everyone thought the crisis was temporarily over, Bai Ying suddenly made her move.
With a wave of her jade-like hand, a scale shimmering with an eerie light shot out from her hand like a meteor, flying straight toward the white flute with an unstoppable momentum.
This scale may look ordinary, but its oppressive aura is even more terrifying than the incomparably powerful Kongtong Seal.
Upon seeing this, several Nascent Soul stage experts quickly summoned their magical artifacts to defend themselves. These artifacts shone brightly, forming an impenetrable defensive network.
But all of this seemed so powerless in the face of that single scale.
The scales, accompanied by a whistling sound, rushed directly towards the defensive net as if it were empty.
With a "poof," like a sharp blade cutting through thin paper, the scales easily pierced through the magical artifacts, which instantly turned into countless fragments that scattered everywhere.
The protective shields, under the impact of the scales, were rendered useless, shattering instantly and dissipating into specks of light in the air.
Without the slightest pause, the scales, with an unstoppable momentum, pierced straight through Bai Di's body.
A faint scream escaped Bai Di's lips as her body flew backward like a kite with a broken string.
When she landed, everyone could clearly see that her body had been pierced, and blood was gushing out like a spring. The stolen spiritual root within her body was also completely destroyed by this attack, turning into nothingness.
The entire room fell silent.
Those sect leaders and elders who were usually knowledgeable and self-important all stared wide-eyed and mouths agape in astonishment.
They never expected that Bai Ying, all alone, facing three powerful Nascent Soul stage cultivators in such an intense and dangerous battle, would still be able to concentrate and use swift and decisive methods to completely destroy Bai Di's spiritual root!
"This is terrifying! This Bai Ying is even stronger than I imagined!"
"I was wondering why the Lingyin Sect dared to let Bai Ying deal with the Xingyao Sect alone. It turns out they didn't even need to lift a finger. Bai Ying could handle three Nascent Soul stage experts all by herself. She's terrifying! With such talent and a powerful sect as her backing, her future is truly limitless."
