Since obtaining the Junmo Sword, he has gradually tried to master it. Today, he can maintain the Blood King Gu state for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. He dares not do any longer, for fear that if he does not suppress it for a long time, he will lose control and become a mindless monster again.
In his Blood King Gu form, Xiao Yuhan pushed off with his feet and charged toward the white-haired woman. The ice beneath his feet shattered instantly, and a sword appeared directly in front of her. He swung his sword, its energy spreading for miles around, but the white-haired woman did not dodge. She caught the sword with her bare hands, completely unharmed.
This doesn't mean she's particularly powerful, but rather that the demon race's physical body is itself a magical weapon. Unlike humans who use magical artifacts to enhance themselves, their claws and teeth are innate weapons, constantly strengthened from the very beginning of their cultivation.
At this moment, Han Xiong charged in with his sword. The white-haired woman restrained Xiao Yuhan with one hand and tried to block Han Xiong's sword with the other. Gradually, she was at a disadvantage and became increasingly angry.
With a swift claw strike, Xiao Yuhan and Han Xiong were separated. The ice beneath their feet shattered, and the white-haired woman, targeting the more threatening Han Xiong, charged towards him with ghostly speed. With a single palm strike, she sent Han Xiong flying back to a distant snow-covered rock face, the terrifying impact nearly triggering an avalanche.
Xiao Yuhan immediately raised his sword to the sky, and in an instant, dark clouds filled the sky, thunder rolled and fell indiscriminately.
At this moment, Han Xiong transformed into a streak of light not far away, dodging the lightning attacks while wielding his sword to attack the white-haired woman again. However, the woman seemed to be truly enraged at this moment. Just as Han Xiong's sword was about to strike, she became even faster and disappeared from Han Xiong's sight.
The next time she appeared, it was in front of Xiao Yuhan.
Xiao Yuhan instinctively struck out with his palm, clashing with the attacking claws. Only then did he realize how terrifying this woman was. Although the difference in spiritual power was not significant, his palm felt as if it had struck a solid boulder. Not only did it fail to shake her in the slightest, but the terrifying recoil also made his palm ache.
Having lost ground in this palm strike, Xiao Yuhan swung his sword, only to have it caught by the woman. She smiled slightly and said, "For many years, the human race hasn't produced experts like you. Since the ancient war, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has become scarce. Those among you who can achieve Dao Integration are extremely rare. However… in reality, you haven't achieved Dao Integration, have you? Your methods of enhancing yourselves through external forces are still far inferior to true Dao Integration…"
Xiao Yuhan tugged at the sword in her hand, only to find that Jun Tan remained completely still. At that moment, Han Xiong's voice came from behind her, "How could you possibly understand the wisdom left behind by the human race over thousands of years of history?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Xiong soared into the air, his nine-colored divine light transforming into nine sword energies. With a furious roar, the sword formation was complete, and the nine swords darted between heaven and earth, crisscrossing and attacking the white-haired woman.
At this moment, a hint of fear flashed in the white-haired woman's eyes. With a sudden burst of strength, she crushed the Junmo Sword. Xiao Yuhan was somewhat surprised. Although the sword could be restored after being broken, it was capable of withstanding the Dragon-Slaying Sword when it was in his hands. The strength of the Dragon-Slaying Sword was beyond question. After it injured his senior brother's arm, it prevented his arm from healing, leaving the sword energy lingering at the wound. Although his senior brother Liu later removed the residual sword energy from the wound, the severed arm could not be reattached.
Even Jun Mo, who could withstand the Dragon Slayer Sword at his strongest moment, was unable to block the white-haired woman's claws.
However, the woman was also in bad shape. With the Nine Star Sword Formation in place, she dodged and retreated, gradually becoming powerless to resist. After being hit by several swords, she let out a roar and transformed into her true form, a nine-tailed fox several tens of feet long. With a sharp screech, Xiao Yuhan immediately covered his ears, but still suffered some internal injuries.
Ancient texts record that the nine-tailed fox is comparable to the dragon race. Xiao Yuhan knew that this great demon was extraordinary. He turned his head and glanced at Han Xiong not far away. The two of them understood each other and knew that they had no choice but to fight desperately. For the demon race, they would only reveal their true form when they went all out.
This shows that she had been able to deal with the two of them quite easily before, but it also shows that their attacks were indeed effective, and at least she had to take them seriously.
Xiao Yuhan held his sword upright in front of him, gathering his spiritual energy into it. This was the first time he had undergone physical disintegration since obtaining Junmo. Moreover, after sacrificing his blood to the immortal sword, physical disintegration was no longer a desperate measure to destroy the sword and risk his life, but rather a backup ultimate move.
Junmo's Disintegration was the first time he had used it, and he didn't know what the effect would be. But the next second, he felt the power of thunder hidden in the black jade sword. As the disintegration was completed, crimson lightning blazed around Xiao Yuhan's body. The broken ice under his feet was completely shattered by the power of the disintegration. The snow and ice of the ice field within a radius of dozens of miles melted away, and crimson lightning could be faintly flashed in the clouds above.
According to Senior Brother Liu, the crimson lightning was tribulation lightning, with immeasurable destructive power. He had previously conducted research to understand this lightning and found records stating that before the Great War of the Desolate Era, the crimson tribulation lightning was the tribulation lightning that would be attracted when a cultivator in the Mahayana Realm underwent tribulation.
However, after the ancient war, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became scarce, and crimson tribulation lightning never appeared in the world again.
At this moment, Xiao Yuhan sensed the white fox's fear. It wanted to escape and its speed increased dramatically. Han Xiong's Nine Star Sword Formation failed to trap it. Just as it was about to escape, the ice field froze again, and the nine-tailed white fox was frozen solid, unable to move at all.
Xiao Yuhan seized the opportunity and went all out. The thunderbolts from the dark clouds transformed into a giant dragon and fell down. Xiao Yuhan followed closely behind, transforming into a bolt of lightning and appearing in front of the white fox. Han Xiong was not to be outdone, and the two joined forces to strike.
The ice on its body shattered, and the white fox was severely injured and sent flying. During the process, it transformed into human form. The white-haired woman knelt on the ground, spitting blood, and could no longer stand steadily.
Xiao Yuhan and Han Xiong were exhausted when a celestial figure in azure blue appeared beside them on a sword, staring intently at the white fox. This person was none other than Qin Yuejiao, the current sect leader of the Kunlun Sect. She was the one who had just subdued the white fox. She did not hesitate to stand by Xiao Yuhan and Han Xiong as they joined forces against the enemy. Although she had never liked Xiao Yuhan, she at least knew her place, so she temporarily put everything aside and stood beside Xiao Yuhan and Han Xiong.
At the same time, a large number of experts from the Kunlun Immortal Sect appeared behind her and surrounded the white-haired woman.
But the white-haired woman seemed utterly unafraid. After a couple of cold laughs, she stood up shakily. "It seems that the human race is not as indiscriminate as I imagined. I will remember this grudge!"
She tried to leave as soon as she finished speaking.
