349: Chapter 349 All-Out War

"No! What is this thing?!"

"Help! My Protective Aura..."

The Blood Fiend Demonic Sect Disciples who were hiding in the shadows, waiting for a chance to launch a sneak attack, didn't even have time to let out a full scream.

Under the high temperature and tearing Laws of the destruction beams, the Demonic Path Magical Artifacts they took pride in melted instantly. Their demonic bodies, tempered over many years of hard cultivation, were like ice and snow meeting a blazing sun; along with their Primordial Spirits, they were completely blasted into microscopic ash amidst despairing terror, scattering with the wind without leaving behind even a single chance at Reincarnation.

"Damn it! Damn it all!! Is that an Immortal Artifact?! How could the Qingyun Dao Sect have a war-grade Immortal Artifact of this level?!"

A True Immortal Elder of the Blood Fiend Demonic Sect hidden deep in the void felt his eyes nearly burst from their sockets. Seeing hundreds of elite Disciples being annihilated in an instant below, he roared out in exasperated rage.

His heart was bleeding; these were the future Foundation of the Sect!

"Don't panic! They only have one ship! Follow me, seize the immortal boat, and avenge the Disciples! Stop them for me!"

Although this True Immortal Elder was terrified by the power of the immortal boat, greed and anger soon overcame his reason.

He suddenly drew a blood-colored bone sword overflowing with resentment and let out a wild roar. Leading over a dozen similarly bloodshot True Immortal Realm demonic cultivators, he transformed into over a dozen streaks of crimson blood-light, madly pouncing toward the deck of the other shore immortal boat like moths to a flame.

"Hmph, a bunch of overconfident ants dare to lay a finger on the immortal boat? Those who block me shall die!"

Ji Yaoguang looked heroic and formidable. With a flip of her delicate hand, the red gourd appeared in her palm.

Ji Yaoguang stared indifferently at the True Immortal Elder charging at the front. Her red lips parted slightly, and her voice, though crisp, carried a bone-chilling silence:

"Please, treasure, turn around!"

The moment she finished speaking, a suffocating Immortal Slaying Evil Qi suddenly erupted from the mouth of the dark red gourd.

Swish—

A streak of white light, only as thick as a strand of hair yet blindingly bright, flashed through the void at an ultimate speed that transcended the concepts of time and space.

Puchi!

The slight sound of a sharp blade cutting through flesh rang out.

The ferocity and madness on the face of the leading True Immortal Elder hadn't even had time to fade, and the blood-colored bone sword he had just raised froze in mid-air.

He didn't even have time to react, dodge, or even summon a defensive Magic Treasure.

In the next instant, under the horrified gazes of the other dozen or so demonic cultivators, the True Immortal Elder's head soared into the sky without any warning!

Scalding demonic blood erupted from the smooth severed neck like a fountain, dyeing the void red.

And his Primordial Spirit, which attempted to flee from his Sea of Consciousness, was instantly ground into nothingness by that overbearing Immortal Slaying Evil Qi the moment it touched the white light, like tofu falling into a millstone!

The supreme power of a profound heaven treasure, in the hands of a genuine True Immortal like Ji Yaoguang, finally unleashed its full, terrifying lethality without reservation!

"My god... what... what on earth is that thing?!"

"Instantly killing a True Immortal Elder?! Even the Primordial Spirit couldn't escape! It's a profound heaven treasure! It's the legendary Immortal Slaying Flying Dagger! Retreat! Retreat now!!!"

The remaining dozen or so True Immortal Realm demonic cultivators, who were originally aggressive, were now terrified as if they had been doused with a bucket of ice-cold water; their souls were flying away and their spirits scattering.

The tragic death of their leading Elder had completely shattered their psychological defenses.

They no longer cared about revenge or seizing the immortal boat. They immediately forced their surging Devilish Qi to turn around and flee regardless of the backlash. Their originally tight charging Formation instantly fell into chaos, like a pack of stray dogs.

"Since you've come, then all of you stay!"

Yaochi Holy Mother gave a cold snort, divine light bursting from her phoenix eyes.

With a wave of her jade hand, the sky-filling Yaochi Immortal Water transformed into countless crystal-clear but incomparably sharp water swords, sweeping toward the fleeing demonic cultivators and covering the sky.

Fairy Lengyue remained silent, cradling an ancient zither. As her fingertips plucked the strings, the Taiyin sound waves transformed into physical blades of frost, ruthlessly slicing through the enemies' bodies.

The women took the opportunity to strike out, coordinating with seamless precision.

Various brilliant and lethal immortal path divine abilities poured out like a torrential storm.

Wherever they passed, demonic cultivators fell one after another.

They pushed forward horizontally, unstoppable; no force could block their advance.

However, just as the women were slaughtering in all directions and were about to clear out the outer demonic cultivators, Gu Qingxue's brow suddenly furrowed tightly on the deck of the other shore immortal boat.

Amidst the clamor of the battlefield, her keen True Immortal Divine Sense captured faint, intermittent, but despairing and painful cries for help.

"Save... save us... someone... save us..."

The voice was as thin as a silk thread, as if it would break at any moment, but to Gu Qingxue, it was as piercing as a clap of thunder.

Gu Qingxue turned her head sharply, her gaze piercing through the layers of thin blood mist to look at a massive valley on the lower left side of the immortal boat.

The valley was strictly isolated by a very hidden and sturdy dark red Formation light screen. Had it not been for her powerful Divine Sense and the close proximity, she wouldn't have been able to discover the anomalies within.

When she saw the scene inside the valley clearly, Gu Qingxue's pupils shrank, and an uncontrollable rage rushed from her heart straight to her head.

In that dim valley, thousands of pitch-black iron pillars as thick as water vats stood densely.

On every iron pillar, a female cultivator was bound tightly with chains engraved with malicious runes.

Most of these female cultivators were in rags, their bodies covered in scars from whipping and torture.

They were haggard to the extreme; their once supple skin was now as withered as dry wood, and their eyes were hollow and despairing.

Most horrifyingly, blood-colored tentacles like living creatures were extending from those pitch-black iron pillars, stabbing ruthlessly into the bodies of these female cultivators.

The originally abundant blood Qi and even their Origin Lifespan within their bodies were being crazily drained by this invisible and evil power.

The extracted blood Qi turned into striking blood-colored streams, flowing along the dense Formation runes on the valley floor and continuously converging toward the deepest depths of the Immortal Burial Abyss.

Among these tortured female cultivators, Gu Qingxue immediately saw dozens of young girls wearing the outer Disciple uniforms of the Qingyun Dao Sect, all in a wretched state.

They were all quite young, and right now, they were using their last bit of strength to slightly raise their heads, looking up at the immortal boat in the sky that brought both slaughter and hope with despair and sorrow.

"They are our Disciples! They were actually turned into Cauldrons for a blood sacrifice!"

Gu Qingxue's hands instantly clenched, her nails sinking deep into her palms, as an extremely chilling glint flashed in her beautiful eyes.
