Chapter 5756
The three green fire skulls spewed viscous ghostly fire, igniting anything that touched it, scorching not only flesh but also corroding the soul!
Elder Li Yan fought two demonic cultivators of the same level alone. Though incredibly brave, his tiger claws tearing through the void and repelling attacks, he quickly fell into a disadvantageous position due to the opponents’ tacit cooperation and the interference of strange magical artifacts.
Several deep, bone-revealing wounds appeared on his body, and his left arm was grazed by the ghostly fire, emitting a sizzling sound and excruciating pain.
Shi Yan and Ying Wu fought back to back against several demonic cultivators. Their injuries had not yet healed, and they were now in grave danger.
Shi Yan’s giant axe was entangled by a demonic cultivator’s chain, and another demonic cultivator seized the opportunity to unleash a poisoned dagger, aiming straight for his back!
Ying Wu wielded her twin daggers like the wind, desperately trying to block, but was struck in the shoulder by a sudden soul dagger. She groaned, her movements faltering, and it seemed she was about to die on the spot!
The entire Rock Valley had been transformed into a battlefield!
Houses collapsed, flames soared into the sky, and the ground was littered with the corpses of disciples from both sides, their blood staining the earth red.
Although the beastmen disciples were fierce, their defeat was only a matter of time under the absolute superiority of their strength and techniques.
Elder Li Yan’s eyes were bloodshot as he watched his familiar disciples fall one by one, his heart filled with despair and regret.
Was Rock Valley about to be washed away in blood today?
Just as Shi Yan and Ying Wu closed their eyes to await their deaths, and Elder Li Yan himself felt despair—
a clear and cold sword cry, like the roar of a dragon from the heavens, suddenly came from outside the valley, drowning out all the noise of the battlefield!
Immediately afterward, a dazzling, multicolored sword aura, seemingly condensing all the light in the world
, shot across the sky with superhuman speed, like a meteor tearing through the night, and with unparalleled precision, towards the demonic cultivator who was about to plunge his dagger into Shi Yan’s back!
“Pfft!”
The demonic cultivator, whose strength was at the third rank of the Celestial Immortal Realm, didn’t even have time to react. His protective demonic aura was pierced through like paper, leaving a gaping, bloody hole between his brows.
The savage smile in his eyes instantly froze, replaced by endless terror and bewilderment, before his body slumped to the ground.
This sudden sword strike silenced the entire chaotic battlefield!
Everyone instinctively looked in the direction from which the sword light had come.
Under the moonlight, at the shattered illusion array at the valley entrance, a figure in a green robe stood with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering gently in the night breeze, his expression calm, as if he were simply strolling leisurely.
It was Kai, who had returned!
Behind him, the little fire qilin stood majestically, its body surrounded by crimson flames, making it appear like a sacred beast from mythology.
He hadn’t actually gone far; he had been meditating in the nearby mountains and forests. Sensing the violent energy fluctuations and soaring demonic energy erupting from the direction of Rock Valley, he knew something was wrong and immediately rushed back.
“It’s…it’s Senior!”
Shi Yan, having escaped death, looked at the figure, his voice trembling with excitement.
Ying Wu’s beautiful eyes widened, filled with unbelievable joy.
Elder Li Yan was even more shaken, looking at the young man he had previously despised and even insulted, now appearing like a divine warrior descending from the heavens, rescuing Shi Yan and the other from their deadly predicament with a single sword strike.
His facial muscles twitched violently, his mind churning with turbulent emotions: “How could this be?! It really is him?!”
“Who are you?! Daring to interfere in the affairs of my Ten Thousand Souls Demon Sect!”
The demon cultivator leader, wielding a white bone mourning staff, roared in shock and rage.
Kai completely ignored his shouts.
His gaze swept across the ravaged valley, littered with the dead and wounded, finally settling on the ferocious black-robed demon cultivators, his eyes instantly turning icy cold.
“Those who harm my followers die.”
His words, though simple, contained an undeniable resolve and killing intent.
He moved.
With a single step, his figure vanished like a ghost, appearing the next moment at the most densely packed spot among the demon cultivators!
