955: Chapter 956 Captured to be the Cult Leader's Mount

"Pfft!"

Jue Wuxie felt as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer. He flew backward like a kite with a broken string, the blood he sprayed congealing into crimson ice beads in mid-air!

"Senior Ice Flood Dragon is mighty!"

"Elder Li's Divine Might!"

Below, the Nine Nether Sect Disciples, who had been struggling to hold on, were filled with excitement, their morale soaring!

To see a dignified Devil Head of the Late Void Refining Stage beaten into such a pathetic state by two of their own Elders working together—how gratifying!

"Kill him while he's down!" the white-haired old woman shouted. She shook her Bone Banner once more,

and those nine Netherfire Chains tightened abruptly, forcibly pulling back the retreating Jue Wuxie!

Qiong Shuang left him no room at all! With a sudden swing of her dragon tail, she sliced through the sky,

carrying the force of ten thousand tons as she lashed out fiercely at Jue Wuxie's waist and abdomen!

If this strike landed solidly, it would likely snap him in half!

"Demon Blood Escape!" Jue Wuxie sensed a fatal crisis. A flash of madness and extreme pain flickered in his eyes!

He abruptly bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a large mouthful of Demon Blood containing pure natal True Essence!

Boom!

The Demon Blood transformed into a thick, inseparable black mist that enveloped him, instantly corroding more than half of the Netherfire Chains!

"Old Woman Li! And that damned wretched dragon! I'll remember today's grudge! One day, I will surely extract your Souls and refine your spirits!"

Jue Wuxie's venomous roar echoed from within the black mist.

In the next moment, the black mist shrank abruptly, turning into a faint streak of blood-colored light,

fleeing in a pathetic state toward the depths of the Sun Moon Divine Cult army at a speed far exceeding the norm!

"A pity!" Elder Li watched the fleeing blood light and put away her Bone Banner with some regret.

Qiong Shuang also returned to her human form, standing in the Void Realm. Her chest heaved slightly, but her face bore a cold, satisfied smile from having her revenge:

"Hmph, this old devil didn't hesitate to burn his essence blood to use a forbidden technique to escape. He won't be able to recover his Origin Qi anytime soon! I've finally vented my anger!"

Her beautiful eyes swept over the battlefield below, her voice carrying a chill that pierced through the fray:

"Listen up, you little demon brats of the Sun Moon Divine Cult! Your leader has fled like a stray dog! Why haven't you retreated yet?!"

This scene was clearly observed by both sides confronting each other at an even higher level in the distant Void Realm.

This clear shout was like an ice pick stabbing into the hearts of all the demonic cultivators!

The Sun Moon Divine Cult army, already shaken by Jue Wuxie's defeat, was now thrown into complete chaos!

Seeing Qiong Shuang's Divine Might, the Nine Nether Sect Disciples' morale surged like a rainbow. Their battle cries shook the heavens, and their offensive instantly became incredibly sharp!

The defensive line they had been struggling to maintain was forcibly pushed forward by a hundred feet! The screams of demonic cultivators rose one after another.

Far away on the battlefield, inside a pitch-black demon palace floating atop rolling demonic clouds.

"Trash! Absolute trash!"

A deafening roar almost blew the roof off the palace!

Sha Wuji stood up abruptly, his dark gold battle armor clanking,

his face, covered in knotted muscles and a hideous scar splitting from his brow to his jaw, turned bright red!

"A dignified Late Void Refining Stage, actually outsmarted by a little loach who just reached the Demon King Realm! It's a disgrace to the Heavenly Demon Sect! You've completely shamed this Protector!"

Beside him was a middle-aged man with a somewhat short and stout build, looking like a black iron bead—

Zhu Wuneng. He squinted his small eyes, which were nearly buried in fat,

staring intently at Qiong Shuang's proud figure in the water mirror technique, a sinister light flashing in his eyes.

"Old Sha, stay calm... this Ice Flood Dragon... is quite interesting."

He licked his thick lips, his voice carrying an unsettling, oily quality,

"Having just entered the Demon King Realm, she can actually burst forth with combat power comparable to a mid-tier Demon King?

Such a Bloodline... tsk tsk. If we capture her and offer her to the Cult Leader as a mount... wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"Hmm?" Sha Wuji's slanted, malevolent eyes suddenly lit up!

He pinched his chin, the scar on his face twitching like a living centipede,

"Old Zhu, you finally have a decent idea in that head of yours! Hehehe..."

He let out a series of hair-raising, cruel laughs. "Fine! We'll split the credit for this achievement fifty-fifty! This little loach belongs to me!"

Before his voice had even faded, Sha Wuji's mountain-like, sturdy body suddenly transformed into a violent blood-colored tornado,

tearing through space with a "boom" and instantly vanishing from the palace!

"Idot! Wait!"

Zhu Wuneng's expression changed. He cursed and burst forth with startling speed, turning into an inconspicuous black light to follow closely behind.

He inwardly cursed Sha Wuji's recklessness: "That person in the gray robe... is definitely not simple!"

On the battlefield, the scales of victory were rapidly tipping toward the Nine Nether Sect.

The remaining five Void Refining Elders of the Sun Moon Divine Cult, under the combined attack of Old Black Mu,

Elder Li, and several other Void Refining experts from the Nine Nether Sect, were already struggling and in constant peril!

The demonic light on them was dim, their clothes stained with blood. They could barely protect themselves, let alone command the army.

Cold light flashed again in Qiong Shuang's beautiful eyes, like a falcon locking onto its prey. Her target was one of the demonic cultivators in the Void Refinement Mid-stage whose Aura was unstable!

Her body moved slightly as she prepared to use her old trick again, launching another fatal sneak attack!

BOOM—!!!

An indescribable, terrifying pressure crashed down like a ten-thousand-foot mountain of blood!

In an instant, the space for a hundred miles around Qiong Shuang was solidified! It wasn't simple restraint, but the complete freezing and solidification of space!

Qiong Shuang felt as if she were embedded in a block of ten-thousand-year-old profound ice. Even blinking her eyelashes became incredibly difficult!

Her blood nearly stopped flowing, and her Demonic Power was suppressed tightly within her body!

An extreme fear originating from life's instinct, faced with an absolute apex predator, instantly seized her heart!

In the reflection of her pupils, a giant blood-colored claw that blotted out the sun ignored the distance of space,

carrying overwhelming demonic flames and a nauseatingly thick, bloody Evil Qi, as it clawed down toward her head!

The patterns on that blood claw were clearly visible, the nails sharp as knives, radiating a sharpness that could tear apart the Divine Soul!

Qiong Shuang could even smell the Aura of billions of living beings wailing, entwined around that claw!

It's over! Qiong Shuang's heart went cold. This was power far exceeding the Demon King Realm! It was a Body Integration powerhouse!

The opponent didn't care about their status at all; they intended to capture her with thunderous force!

The shadow of death had never been as heavy as it was at this moment!

Just at the critical moment when that blood claw was about to touch the silver hair on Qiong Shuang's head!

"Scram!"

A voice, not particularly earth-shattering, yet like a world-shaking thunder from the Nine Heavens,

carrying unquestionable dominance and absolute will, boomed deep within Qiong Shuang's Sea of Consciousness!

This sound didn't come from hearing but acted directly on the Soul! Like a stabilizing pillar, it instantly dispersed the boundless fear in her heart!

At the same time, a gray figure appeared out of thin air before the giant blood claw, as if teleporting!

So abrupt, yet so natural!

It was Yao Delong!

He didn't even look back at Qiong Shuang behind him. He simply raised his hand and clenched his fist!

His fist didn't shine with a dazzling light, nor did it burst forth with a world-destroying Aura.

It was just that plain and unadorned as it punched out toward the giant blood claw that seemed capable of seizing the sun and moon!

THUD—!!!!

An extremely dull yet extremely piercing, terrifying explosion resounded throughout the entire Blood Sea City battlefield!

As if two stars had collided in the depths of the Universe!
