A black streak of light shot through the air as Mo Tianchou hovered above the mountain gate. His gaze swept over the scene below, his pupils suddenly contracted, and the black mist around him instantly became violent!
The stone steps were covered with corpses, and streams of blood meandered down the slopes. The mound of dozens of heads gleamed a gruesome crimson in the sunlight, with the heads of the Sixth and Seventh Elders prominently displayed among them.
Those were his trusted subordinates whom he had personally promoted! More than half of the sect's disciples were killed or wounded, and the rest hid behind the mountain gate, trembling with fear. The once majestic Xu Sha Sect's mountain gate had now become a living hell!
"Aaaaaah!!"
Mo Tianchou let out a furious roar, and the pressure of the early stage of the Creation Realm swept down like a tsunami. The surrounding clouds and mist were instantly blown away, the stone steps cracked, the trees broke, and even the ground trembled slightly!
He had only been in seclusion for a few months, yet his sect had been beaten into this state. This was a slap in the face, an attempt to uproot the Xu Sha Sect!
"You little bitch! I'll tear you to pieces!"
Mo Tianchou didn't even bother to ask why; he killed so many people and piled up a mound of corpses, making reconciliation impossible.
Today, we must ensure that this woman in red dies without a burial place in order to quell his anger and stabilize the morale of the sect!
Before he finished speaking, he clenched his right hand, and black mist condensed into a ten-foot-long "fierce mist spear". The tip of the spear was surrounded by wisps of black boundary power, and with the power to devour everything, he hurled it fiercely at Jiang Li!
This spear, imbued with thirty percent of his spiritual power, is a unique attack of the boundary force unique to the Creation Realm. If an ordinary late-stage Dao Proving cultivator were to be struck by it, they would be instantly torn into mincemeat!
Jiang Li's eyes narrowed, not daring to be careless in the slightest. She could sense the terror of this spear, which was several times stronger than the combined attack of the five late-stage Dao-proving elders!
"Crimson Flame Sword Domain!"
Jiang Li let out a low shout, and her spiritual power exploded without reservation. Crimson sword energy surged out from her body, instantly forming a sword domain with a diameter of ten feet!
Within the sword domain, countless crimson sword energies swirled like living things, scorching the air and causing it to crackle and pop. Even Mo Tianchou's oppressive aura was partially blocked by the sword domain!
"clang--!"
The black mist spear pierced into the sword domain, and the crimson sword energy bombarded the spear wildly. The black mist and the crimson sword energy collided and annihilated each other, producing a deafening roar.
The sword domain trembled violently, countless sword energies shattered, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of Jiang Li's mouth. But she gritted her teeth and gripped the rusty iron sword with both hands, continuously pouring spiritual power into the sword domain!
"boom!"
The Fiend Mist Spear was ultimately blocked by the Sword Domain, shattering into a sky full of black mist with a loud bang and scattering into the air.
"What?!"
Mo Tianchou's pupils constricted sharply, his face filled with disbelief. His attack, imbued with thirty percent of his spiritual power, had actually been blocked by a mere girl in the mid-stage of the Dao Proving realm? How could this be!
"There's a bit of skill involved, but that's all!"
Enraged, Mo Tianchou appeared before Jiang Li in a flash, his right hand forming a giant hand covered in black boundary power, which slammed down on Jiang Li with overwhelming force!
"Demon Mist Devours Souls!"
The moment the giant hand fell, countless black mists surged from its palm, like hungry beasts, rushing towards Jiang Li's soul—this was not only a physical attack, but also a strangulation at the level of the soul, extremely insidious!
Jiang Li's footwork shifted rapidly, her figure weaving beneath the giant hand like a ghost. At the same time, she thrust out her rusty iron sword repeatedly, sending crimson sword energy raining down on the giant hand's palm, attempting to break through this soul-piercing attack.
"Pfft!"
The edge of the giant hand grazed Jiang Li's shoulder, and black mist instantly clung to her clothes, seeping in like a leech.
Jiang Li felt a sharp pain in her shoulder, and her soul felt as if it were being pierced by countless needles, causing her vision to go black.
"Prepare to die!"
Mo Tianchou seized the moment when she was distracted, and with his left hand, he once again conjured a giant hand, which slammed down on Jiang Li from the side, blocking all her escape routes!
Despite the excruciating pain in her soul, Jiang Li whirled around, her rusty iron sword drawing a crimson arc in front of her, the sword energy condensing into a shield. At the same time, she stomped her left foot on the ground, using the recoil to fly backward.
"Bang!"
The giant hand slammed onto the sword energy shield, shattering it instantly. Jiang Li was jolted by the impact, her blood surging, and she was sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood that stained her red dress.
But she did not land. She forcibly steadied herself in mid-air, still gripping the rusty iron sword tightly in her hand. The killing intent in her eyes not only did not diminish, but became even more intense.
"You think you can contend with the Creation Realm?"
Mo Tianchou hovered in mid-air, looking at the injured Jiang Li, a cruel smile curling at the corner of his mouth, "That was just a warm-up. Next, I will tear your body apart bit by bit, devour your soul, and let you taste the 'Soul Refining Technique' of my Xu Sha Sect!"
As he spoke, he slowly raised his hand, and the black mist around him began to gather wildly, forming a huge black vortex.
Countless ghostly figures were faintly howling within the vortex, and an even more powerful aura erupted—he was about to use an even stronger secret technique!
Jiang Li wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, looked up at Mo Tianchou, her eyes still firm beneath the silver mask.
She knew she was no match for Mo Tianchou; the power and secret techniques of the Creation Realm far exceeded her limits. But she couldn't back down—the wronged souls were still waiting for her revenge, and not a single member of the Void Fiend Sect could be spared!
"If you want to take my life, you'll have to see if you have the ability!"
Jiang Li let out a low shout, gripped the rusty iron sword with both hands, and mobilized all the remaining spiritual power in her body, even her divine soul, and poured it into the sword.
The rusty iron sword emitted a loud hum, and the crimson sword energy on the sword became more and more intense, eventually condensing into a huge crimson sword shadow, which was tens of feet long and pointed directly at Mo Tianchou with an indomitable determination!
"This is...burning one's soul?!" Mo Tianchou's expression changed slightly. He hadn't expected this woman to be so ruthless, daring to even burn her own soul!
"Go to hell!"
Without wasting words, Jiang Li manipulated the crimson sword shadow and slashed fiercely at Mo Tianchou and the black vortex in front of him!
Mo Tianchou's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he held back no longer. The black vortex suddenly accelerated its rotation, and countless ghostly shadows roared out, colliding with the crimson sword shadow!
"boom--!!"
A deafening roar echoed throughout the entire Spirit Ruins Realm. Crimson sword energy and black mist annihilated each other, and violent shockwaves uprooted the surrounding trees, shattered the stone steps, and scattered the heads on the Jing Guan (a mound of skulls), with blood raining down.
Jiang Li was thrown back by the shockwave and crashed heavily into the stone wall of the mountain gate. Blood kept gushing from her mouth, and her aura instantly weakened. The rusty iron sword in her hand also fell to the ground with a clang.
Mo Tianchou was also in bad shape. He was forced back by the crimson sword shadow, black blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, and the black vortex in front of him had mostly dissipated.
His eyes were filled with shock and rage; this woman had actually managed to hurt him!
"You little bitch! I will kill you today!"
