"Awesome! So awesome!" Shen Xingze felt this power enter his body and begin to strengthen and transform it. Under the influence of the pseudo-god's power, the Chaos Spirit Water quickly exerted its nourishing properties. Their physical constitutions were undergoing astonishing changes, and their bodies were radiating a dazzling golden light.
Ruiying's body trembled slightly, "Master, you really have a way to help me improve my physique to become the peerless demon king. I, Ruiying, will always remember this great favor!" He clenched his hooves and secretly made up his mind.
"That was a close call!" Bai Zhiwen's forehead was covered in sweat, secretly thankful that he hadn't impulsively blocked this incredible opportunity. At the same time, he blamed himself for his distrust of Yu Kai, wishing he could slap himself twice. He used his spiritual sense to detect beads of sweat on Yu Kai's forehead, indicating that he was recovering at full strength, having clearly paid a huge price for helping them. "What a jerk I am! From now on, Yu Kai is my biological brother, Bai Zhiwen. I'll go through fire and water for him!"
Seeing that Yu Kai, far from harming Bai Zhiwen and Ruiying, was actually genuinely helping them, the demons breathed a sigh of relief. They keenly sensed that Yu Kai's aura was weak, presumably due to the immense consumption of the mysterious power he had just unleashed. Otherwise, given Yu Kai's previously demonstrated strength, he wouldn't have been so weakened. At this moment, the demons received a voice message from Ruiying and Bai Zhiwen, strictly ordering them to protect Yu Kai and ensure that nothing happened to him.
Shen Xingze and the others were well aware of Yu Kai's dire condition. If Lei Yuan and the others turned back, the consequences would be disastrous. Consequently, they all accelerated their absorption of the Chaos Spirit Water, attempting to quickly enhance their own strength in preparation for the impending crisis. The water level in the deep pool plummeted at a visible rate. Like giant sponges, they frantically absorbed the power of the Chaos Spirit Water.
The commotion here naturally didn't escape the notice of Zhuge Yu and the others. They immediately sent out messages, urging the other geniuses to join forces to attack Yu Kai, vowing to interrupt the transformation of Bai Zhiwen and Rui Ying. After all, the deep pool of chaotic spiritual water would make anyone envious. Furthermore, news spread that the Nuwa Spirit Pearl had been found in the deepest part of Lingyun Valley. This was a peerless treasure that could enhance spiritual intelligence and understanding, and it also contained the spiritual insights of the goddess Nuwa. Such a temptation was hard to resist.
Upon receiving the news, numerous geniuses raced towards the Soul-Enriching Valley. Initially, they were somewhat skeptical, but upon seeing three streaks of golden light rising from the depths, they instantly understood the rumors were true: someone had secured a formidable opportunity and was undergoing a transformation. Not daring to delay, they charged into the valley, slaughtering any demonic beasts that blocked their path, for their furs were considered invaluable and rare.
Soon, a powerful cultivator rushed in front of Yu Kai and the others. The aura emanating from this person caused the demons to retreat. Bai Li instantly transformed into a snow-white nine-tailed fox. Its nine tails danced, forming a barrier that protected Yu Kai, who was recovering from his injuries. The cheetah demon beast was no match for them. Its size exploded, transforming into a monstrous beast. It led the demons forward, staring warily at the approaching force.
The man was a burly figure, his skin dark as stone, his eyes pierced with a resolute gaze. He wore a brown linen shirt, animal skins draped over his shoulders, and clutched a divine hammer. His gaze swept over Liebao, Bai Li, and Ruiying and Bai Zhiwen within the Chaos Spirit Water. This man was none other than Shi Hao, the Heavenly Court's Mountain Guardian. A descendant of Shi Gan Dang, he possessed incredible strength, ranking 49th on the Tianjiao Ranking.
"Where is Yu Kai? Call him out!" Shi Hao stared at Bai Li with a sharp gaze and asked.
"He is in seclusion. If you have anything to say, wait until he comes out!" Bai Li responded softly in a clear and pleasant voice, with a hint of caution in her words.
"Is he looking down on me?" Shi Hao felt that he was being neglected by Yu Kai and became very angry.
"I dare not, but he is really inconvenient at the moment." Bai Li knew very well that the person in front of him was very powerful and did not dare to offend him easily. At the same time, he was looking forward to Yu Kai's quick recovery and Bai Zhiwen and Rui Ying's successful transformation as soon as possible.
"Are you deliberately delaying time?" Shi Hao said, slowly raising the divine hammer and pointing it at Bai Li, his tone full of threats.
"Roar!" Seeing Shi Hao's intentions to harm Yu Kai, the cheetah roared in anger and charged towards Shi Hao with many other monsters. However, as quickly as it left, it returned even faster. Unable to withstand even a single blow from Shi Hao, it was slammed back with a hammer. The cheetah rolled over several times before coming to rest. It struggled to get up and fight again, but with a thud, it fell heavily to the ground, unable to rise again.
Shi Hao wielded his divine hammer, advancing as if he were in an uncharted territory. Despite the sheer number of demons and monsters, they were no match for Shi Hao's immense power. He smashed each powerful monster to pieces, leaving them bleeding and their limbs flying everywhere.
Bai Li was utterly distraught, yet helpless, she could only hope for the aid of other demons. However, instead of help, she encountered Lei Yuan, Zhuge Yu, and the others. Unable to evade, Bai Li was struck by Sima Changfeng's staff, sending her flying. The barrier she had created with her Nine-Tailed Fox shattered. Dragging her injured body, Bai Li fell heavily to the ground, unable to move.
Yu Kai's figure then emerged, suspended in mid-air, recovering with all his might. The Moon Spirit Sacred Sword automatically hovered above him, its blade trembling constantly, and sword intent crisscrossed the surrounding area.
"Is he Yu Kai?" Shi Hao turned and asked, staring at Yu Kai. He then set his gaze on the Yueling Holy Sword above Yu Kai's head and couldn't help but sigh, "What a holy sword! It's actually possessed of intelligence!"
"Yes, it's him! It seems that he is in poor health. He attacked us before, probably using some forbidden means." Lei Yuan hurriedly stepped forward to introduce.
"This man colluded with the demon clan and damaged the interests of Heaven. He is not worthy of being a member of Heaven. Let's work together to capture him and bring him back to Heaven to await punishment." Zhuge Yu shouted while activating the Bagua map.
"Kill!" Greed flashed in Dongfang Hao's eyes, and the long sword in his hand flew out and shot towards Yu Kai. He wanted to seize the Moon Spirit Holy Sword, so he took the initiative to attack.
The Moon Spirit Sword flashed with brilliance, proactively meeting the incoming longsword. A fierce clash ensued between the two sides in the air. The Moon Spirit Sword's powerful power captivated Dongfang Hao even more, knowing full well that once he obtained it, his combat prowess would be greatly enhanced.
Lei Yuan, Zhuge Yu, and Sima Changfeng were also busy, and the three of them rushed towards Bai Zhiwen and the others. At this moment, Yu Kai finally woke up, his eyes suddenly opened, and two destructive divine lights shot out, arriving in an instant like lightning.
