A moment later, a series of sounds of battle echoed from the mountain of books.
Immediately afterwards, two more experts from the Demonic Sect tumbled down the steps from the mountaintop to the foot of the mountain.
Someone identified the two demonic sect masters as Wu Ba from the Ten Thousand Beasts Palace and Mo Sha from the Five Fiends Palace.
Hades's record is quite astonishing. Even though the experts of the Demonic Sect made one move after another, no one could stop him. At this moment, he is already heading towards the throne above.
Of course, some people also noticed something strange: how could Hades have brought Shi Mengqi and Qingran to such a high position?
At first, when Shi Mengqi and Qingran climbed the Book Mountain with Hades, everyone assumed that the two were allies or that he was interested in them, after all, Hades was known as a romantic swordsman.
Therefore, no one found it strange.
Shi Mengqi is Qing Liuli's disciple, and Qing Ran is Qing Liuli's daughter. Although they are only at the late stage of Earth Immortal and the peak of the early stage of Earth Immortal, their strength is definitely quite formidable. As long as they are not targeted, it should not be difficult for them to secure their position as outstanding individuals.
But now things are different. Hades, with the two women, has already passed through 18,000 seats of outstanding individuals and 3,000 seats of prodigies, and is heading towards the 108 seats of kings above.
What does this mean?
Hades' strength is undoubtedly enough to secure his throne, but with Shi Mengqi and Qingran by his side, it's impossible for him to maintain that position.
At the top of the mountain of books, there are nine seats, but only three are empty; the other six seats have already been occupied.
As darkness fell, the clouds turned grayish-black, leaving only a bright moon hanging in the sky, its radiance like layers of thin silver gauze.
Under the moonlight.
Regardless of the discussions, Hades remained by Shi Mengqi and Qingran's side, and the three of them walked slowly and steadily toward the top of the mountain of books.
"He is indeed a devoted lover."
Ouyang Huan tapped the armrest of the throne with his right hand, moved his lips, and condensed his voice into three sound tubes, transmitting his voice to the three demonic sect experts below.
Even the most devoted person will eventually become an enemy.
If someone is an enemy, they must be defeated.
Upon hearing Ouyang Huan's telepathic message, three figures immediately left their seats on the front row of the Heavenly Pride seats and headed towards the mountain steps, blocking the path of Hades, Shi Mengqi, and Qingran.
The person standing at the very front was none other than Zhao Qinghan, the Little Saintess of the Demonic Sect.
Zhao Qinghan wore a loose black robe with a silver crescent moon mark on the back. Her snow-white skin contrasted sharply with the black robe.
Her face was exceptionally beautiful, with delicate features, making her look like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl—both innocent and adorable, yet also quite cold and alluring.
Behind Zhao Qinghan, on her left and right sides, stood a man and a woman respectively.
The man on the left is Ling Ji, the first Dark Night Envoy of the Dark Night Palace of the Demonic Sect.
Many people are discussing Zhao Qinghan and telling many legends about her.
Actually, it's quite normal. After all, this is Zhao Qinghan's first time appearing in such a public setting. Whether it's her "Ice Phoenix Ancient Sacred Body" or her stunning beauty, she's bound to attract a lot of attention.
"Boom!"
Ling Ji raised his left foot and stepped down.
Instantly, a scroll beneath their feet unfurled rapidly, extending outwards and transforming into a miniature world.
On the scroll, Ling Ji and Luo Sha rushed out from Zhao Qinghan's left and right sides at top speed, each unleashing a martial skill aimed at Hades's head and heart respectively.
"The Lone Dragon Leaves No Trace".
Ling Ji held a black spear twelve feet long and thrust it forward. Because of the speed, his figure seemed to disappear from the spot.
Nine black light streaks emerged from the long spear, wrapping around the shaft and forming scales that extended all the way to the tip.
"Nine Transformations of the Rakshasa".
Rakshasa mobilized the water, wood, and metal elements of the Five Elements simultaneously, transforming them into three rivers of spiritual energy, each tens of feet long.
Her figure split into nine, spreading out in all directions.
They rushed right up to Hades before the nine slender figures reunited and simultaneously unleashed a palm strike from nine directions towards the top of Hades' head.
Ling Ji and Rakshasa both knew that Hades was extremely powerful, so they unleashed a powerful attack as soon as they made their move.
"Nine stars encircling the moon".
Hades raised the Golden Serpent Sword and unleashed his swordsmanship, instantly unleashing nine sword beams that struck the nine figures of Rakshasa.
A muffled sound came from the air.
Then, Rakshasa was quickly sent flying backward, a bloody hole appearing in her abdomen. Blood soaked a large area of her black robe.
Hades was about to pursue Rakshasa, intending to cripple her completely.
Once you can disable one person, dealing with the other two will be much easier.
Hades had only taken one step forward when he discovered that Ling Ji's long spear had already struck him, only three feet away from his heart.
"As expected of the Dark Spirit Holy Body, its speed is indeed fast."
Hades had no choice but to abandon his pursuit of Rakshasa. He immediately steadied himself, thrusting the Golden Serpent Sword downwards and embedding it into the ground, where it pierced the scroll.
"boom!"
A domain of sword energy appeared and spread out in all directions.
Among them, more than ten sword energies struck Ling Ji, sending him flying dozens of feet away.
"Among all the realms, I alone reign supreme."
At some point, Zhao Qinghan appeared above the sword energy field, emanating a very profound holy energy that gathered in her right palm.
Immediately, her snow-white jade hand pressed down, creating a huge handprint that was a hundred feet long.
Countless people were watching the battle depicted on the scroll. Upon seeing the hand seals Zhao Qinghan made, someone immediately exclaimed, "Eight Desolate Seals Technique!"
"That's right, it is indeed the legendary Demonic Cult's ultimate technique, the Eight Desolations Seal Technique. Could it be that the Demonic Cult's Little Saintess is practicing the Eight Desolations Technique?"
Zhao Qinghan's seal-making technique astonished many people.
King-level martial arts, also known as "sacred arts," completely transcends techniques. They can cleave rivers with swords, stomp mountains with feet, and destroy cities. Their power is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Even a half-saint might not be able to master a king-level martial skill.
Therefore, for cultivators at the Earth Immortal Realm and some Half-Saints, the Ghost-level High-grade martial arts are the strongest martial arts techniques that can be successfully cultivated.
Even though they are both top-grade divine martial arts, the power they unleash will naturally differ.
Some of the most powerful Ghost-level high-grade martial arts techniques can unleash the power of quasi-saint techniques and are known as "ultimate techniques".
The Demonic Sect has ten unique skills, and the "Eight Desolate Seal Technique" used by Zhao Qinghan is one of them.
The handprint pressed down, causing the sword energy domain unleashed by Hades to sink downwards, like a flattened balloon.
