271: Luo Tianying made a move

“Hiss—!”

Yao Delong, Yue Shan, Lin Qingxue, Han Yun, Qiong Shuang,

Everyone gasped sharply, their faces instantly turning incredibly pale!

Yue Shan, who was at Nascent Soul Perfection, had his strength skyrocket after consuming the nine revolutions profound yang pill,

But facing the pressure emanating from Luo Tianying at this moment, he felt as small as an ant!

This was an absolute suppression based on the level of life itself!

“Kee kee kee...”

Luo Tianying felt the surging, destructive power within her body,

letting out a wanton and sinister laugh. Her blood-red eyes, like the sharpest knives, instantly locked onto Yao Delong.

“Yao Delong, you truly are something else!”

Her voice carried a condescending mockery,

“The Profound Dao Pill... it came from your hands, didn't it? Tsk tsk tsk,

I never expected that you, the guy once considered trash, would actually have the ability to transform into a Dragon!

You truly make Senior Sister me... look at you in a new light!”

Her scarlet tongue slowly licked her delicate yet cold lips, a movement filled with wickedness and greed.

“However...”

Luo Tianying's smile suddenly turned savage and cruel,

“After today, all your Opportunities, all the secrets on your body... will belong to my Holy Sect! Hahahahaha!”

Wanton, maniacal laughter echoed above the ruins, full of the smugness of controlling everything and the pleasure of toying with a prey.

“Quick! Take the Medicinal Pill!” Yao Delong forcefully suppressed the churning waves in his heart and shouted sternly!

He unhesitatingly shoved the endless life creation pill he had distributed earlier into his mouth!

Yue Shan, Lin Qingxue, Senior Sister Han, and Qiong Shuang also reacted instantly and immediately swallowed their Medicinal Pills!

A vast yet gentle force of vitality instantly melted within everyone's bodies, like sweet dew nourishing scorched earth!

Severe internal injuries were repaired and suppressed at a visible speed,

and the depleted primal energy was rapidly replenished!

Although they were still far from their Peak state, they had at least recovered the strength to fight, escaping the desperate situation of being completely exhausted!

“Roar! How dare you be so arrogant, Demoness! Take this axe from your grandpa!”

Yue Shan, whose nature was the most straightforward, felt his power return,

and seeing Luo Tianying act so brazenly, his fury instantly flared!

He roared, his body erupting with earth-yellow primal energy like a volcanic explosion, swinging his giant axe,

carrying the terrifying might of splitting mountains and cracking the earth, fiercely chopping down towards Luo Tianying in mid-air!

Where the axe light passed, the space itself emitted an unbearable tearing sound!

“An ant trying to shake a tree!” A trace of disdainful mockery flashed in Luo Tianying's blood eyes,

“How can my Demonic Technique compare to that trash Liang Kun's pill-enhanced strength?”

She didn't even use any Magic Treasure, merely raising a single hand, white as jade,

and lightly pressed it in the direction of Yue Shan's attack!

*Buzz!*

A dark red blood claw, even more solidified, larger, and with clearer demonic patterns than before, appeared out of thin air!

Upon the blood claw, countless vengeful spirits seemed to be roaring, exuding nauseating bloodlust and destructive aura!

*Boom—!!!*

The blood claw and Yue Shan's mountain-splitting giant axe collided violently!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a heart-stopping sound of energy annihilation!

Yue Shan's terrifying axe light, capable of splitting mountains, instantly

crumbled and dissolved upon contact with the blood claw, like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun!

“What?!” Yue Shan's pupils contracted sharply, his eyes filled with unbelievable shock!

*Pfft!*

The blood claw continued its trajectory, carrying terrifying, crushing power,

slamming heavily onto the giant axe and the protective primal energy Yue Shan had crossed to block!

*Crack!*

Yue Shan's prideful protective primal energy shattered like an eggshell!

He was hit head-on by what felt like a meteor, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood,

his massive body, like a kite with a broken string, smashed down at a faster speed than when he charged!

*Rumble—!!!*

A massive crater was smashed into the ground, and dust billowed!

Yue Shan lay at the bottom of the pit, his giant axe flying out of his grasp, his arms twisted and deformed, and his chest caved in.

His aura instantly dropped to its lowest point; he struggled a few times but couldn't get up!

Just one strike!

Yue Shan, whose strength had soared to Nascent Soul Perfection Peak after taking the nine revolutions profound yang pill, was critically injured and near death!

“Hiss—!”

Lin Qingxue, Senior Sister Han, and Qiong Shuang's faces turned deathly pale, a chill rushing from their soles straight to their heads!

This gap... was too huge! So huge it was despairing!

Yao Delong's heart sank to the bottom! He frantically searched for every possible way to break the situation:

The Puppets were basically scrapped, the group was severely injured and not fully recovered,

and Luo Tianying's strength had reached the threshold of Soul Transformation. Fighting head-on was certain death!

“Communication Jade Talisman!”

A thought flashed through his mind like lightning!

He instantly recalled the life-saving jade talisman Senior Sister Liu had given him before they left!

Without the slightest hesitation, Yao Delong pretended to stare at Luo Tianying in shock and anger,

while simultaneously injecting the remaining primal energy and Divine Sense power in his body,

frantically and covertly, into the warm jade talisman hidden in his sleeve!

At the same time, his urgent and secret voice transmission sounded in everyone's minds:

‘Junior Sister, Senior Sister Han, Qiong Shuang! This Demoness's target is me! I have already sent a message to Senior Sister Liu!

I will draw her away in a moment. You all take the jade talisman and immediately go find Senior Sister Liu to regroup!

Luo Tianying's current strength is terrifying. No one in the Secret Realm can contend with her alone.

Only by uniting all the Sect Disciples can we have a glimmer of hope!

Otherwise, if she defeats us one by one, all the Yin Yang Sect Disciples who entered the Secret Realm will die without a burial site!’

“Senior Brother!” “Junior Brother Yao!” “Big Brother!”

Lin Qingxue, Senior Sister Han, and Qiong Shuang simultaneously transmitted their shocked cries, filled with anxiety and reluctance!

‘Nonsense!’ Yao Delong's voice carried an undeniable resolve,

‘If you stay, you will only die in vain! Have you forgotten my strange movement technique?

She won't be able to catch me for a while! Go quickly! This is an order!

Find Senior Sister Liu and unite everyone! This is the only way to survive!’

Everyone's hearts felt twisted in pain, but looking at Yue Shan, whose fate was unknown in the deep pit,

and the unconscious Xiao Huohuo and Lin Shishi, and sensing Luo Tianying's terrifying pressure, like that of a Demon God,

they instantly understood how cruel yet correct Yao Delong's decision was!

Staying meant total annihilation! Dispersing offered a sliver of hope!

Just as everyone struggled internally, and Luo Tianying smiled like a cat playing with a mouse, enjoying their expressions of despair—

“Luo Tianying! Want my Opportunity? Come and get it if you dare!”

Yao Delong suddenly let out a stern shout!

He passed the jade talisman to Lin Qingxue's hand. At the same time, the Burning Silence Sword in his hand burst forth with its final crimson-gold light,

and he himself turned into a streak of light, like an arrow shot from a bow,

desperately fleeing in the direction completely opposite to where the others were,

towards the faintly visible gray-white light pillar deeper within the Secret Realm!

His speed was so fast that it left an afterimage behind him!

“Hmph! Trying to run? Petty trick!”

A cold killing intent and mockery flashed in Luo Tianying's blood eyes,

She naturally saw through Yao Delong's intention to draw her away and buy his companions a chance to live.

“You few pieces of trash, you get to live a little longer!

Once I capture Yao Delong, I'll come back and slowly torture you!”

She glanced contemptuously at Lin Qingxue and the others, and her figure shimmered,

transforming into a blood-red demonic rainbow, faster and more sinister than Yao Delong,

chasing after him instantly with an air-tearing shriek!

The terrifying demonic might rapidly receded as she departed,

but the shadow of despair she left behind still shrouded the ruins.
