Tantai Qiuyue's expression turned solemn, and the true essence within her body surged wildly like a raging tide, her aura suddenly rising to its peak.
Suddenly, she exerted force with her feet, her body accelerating like an arrow released from a bow, and with an indomitable and resolute momentum, she resolutely pounced on the dense, ferocious horde of demonic beasts.
At this moment, she had only one firm thought in her mind: to kill more beast general-level demonic beasts.
She knew that her subordinates Zhuge Yun, Sun Liren, Xiao Yan and others were trapped in a siege by demonic beasts. Every beast general she killed would relieve some of the pressure on her companions and increase their chances of survival.
In this critical moment, her hidden fighting power was unleashed and released without reservation.
The long sword in her hand, gleaming with a chilling light, shone brightly under the infusion of true energy, as if it had come to life.
With a flick of her wrist, she wielded her longsword with the speed of the wind, unleashing a barrage of extremely sharp sword energy that swept through the horde of demonic beasts like lightning.
Wherever his sword energy passed, the demonic beasts screamed and fell to the ground, blood splattering everywhere, a truly gruesome sight.
Numerous demonic beasts were cleaved to pieces and killed by this indestructible sword energy.
However, just as she had slain five beast general-level demonic beasts and seven beast soldier-level demonic beasts with her sword, the lord-level demonic beast Tiger-faced Leopard, like a black lightning bolt, pounced out from the horde of demonic beasts, carrying a chillingly ferocious aura, and instantly attacked.
The tiger-faced leopard was agile and extremely fast. Its incredibly sharp claws gleamed with a cold light, like sharp daggers, and viciously clawed at Tantai Qiuyue's back.
At this moment, Tantai Qiuyue was focused on charging forward. If she were to be caught by the tiger-faced leopard's claws, the seemingly sturdy blue armor on her back would be torn to shreds instantly, and she herself would suffer severe injuries and be plunged into a desperate situation.
At this critical juncture, where life and death were at stake, Tantai Qiuyue, with her keen combat intuition, sensed the deadly crisis approaching from behind.
Left with no other choice, she could only forcibly stop her forward momentum, her body suddenly turning sharply, drawing a graceful arc in the air like a nimble dancer.
Immediately afterwards, she swung her longsword, which carried a sharp sword aura, and slashed fiercely at the tiger-faced leopard, trying to block the extremely ferocious attack with her longsword.
In an instant, the longsword clashed with the tiger-faced leopard's claws, producing a crisp yet piercing metallic clang, and sparks flew everywhere.
Soon, Tantai Qiuyue was engaged in close combat with the ferocious tiger-faced leopard.
The two sides exchanged blows, their sword and claw shadows intertwining in a dazzling display.
The tiger-faced leopard was clearly an experienced hunter. It began to launch attacks, each move ruthless and deadly, giving Tantai Qiuyue no chance to catch her breath.
Sometimes it leaps high into the air, crashing down like Mount Tai; other times it maneuvers swiftly, launching a surprise attack from the side, leaving Tantai Qiuyue defenseless.
As a result, Tantai Qiuyue was completely entangled by this ferocious tiger-faced leopard and found it difficult to break free for a while.
Although she fought back with all her might, she gradually began to struggle under the powerful offensive of this lord-level monster.
At this extremely tense moment, Sun Liren looked at Tantai Qiuyue, who was entangled by the tiger-faced leopard, his face full of worry and helplessness. He couldn't help but sigh and said, "Commander, if you had stayed behind despite the danger, you would probably be trapped here now with no chance of escape. That Marquis Li Hong is indeed an incredibly brave man. It is said that he is now a peak Foundation Establishment Realm expert, only one step away from breaking through to the Divine Sense Realm. I sincerely admire his cultivation and combat power. However, because you rejected his advances, given his arrogant nature, he may not come to our rescue."
At this point, a hint of despair flashed in Sun Liren's eyes. He felt that in this desperate situation, it was impossible for Champion Marquis Li Hong to come and save them.
Today, all of them will likely perish in this once inconspicuous little mountain in Tianyi City, becoming food for demonic beasts.
Meanwhile, deep in the valley on the quiet hillside where Tantai Qiuyue was located, a hundred heavily armored cavalrymen with an imposing aura were quietly lurking.
The leader of this cavalry unit was a tall, imposing man with a commanding presence.
He was dressed in a suit of jet-black, gleaming heavy armor, which seemed to be meticulously forged from the hardest black iron. Each armor plate shimmered with a cold light, as if telling a story of endless slaughter and majesty.
The armor was exquisitely designed, not only completely covering his body but also protecting his face, leaving only a pair of sharp, deep eyes like those of a hawk.
Those eyes gleamed with a cold and decisive light, making it impossible to look directly at them.
This man was none other than the world-renowned Marquis of Champion.
The term "champion" means unique and undisputed number one.
Although the Marquis of Champion was not a prince, his position among all the marquises was unshakeable and number one.
What's even more astonishing is that this renowned champion was only twenty-eight years old.
His illustrious achievements were all accumulated through countless baptisms of blood and fire in the Demon Suppression Army.
Legend has it that in the distant southern region, on that land shrouded in demonic energy, the Champion Marquis once led the Demon Suppression Army in countless thrilling life-or-death battles against the demons, slaying tens of thousands of demons.
The background of champion Hou Lihong is astonishingly profound, far beyond what ordinary people can compare to.
His father was Prince Li Wentian, who wielded immense power in the court.
