161: Chapter 161 was remembered.

"Boom!"

The Arrow-Poison Demon Sage and Hall Master Li combined their full strength, launching a fierce assault.

Yet, they still showed signs of losing ground.

Xiang Tian could not help but frown deeply.

This Demon Race is simply too strong.

Even in his injured state, I dare not imagine how terrifying he would be at his peak!

"Hahaha! Even if this King is severely injured, I am not someone that you stray cats and dogs can deal with!"

High above, Xiang Jue's arrogant laughter suddenly rang out.

The Arrow-Poison Demon Sage and Hall Master Li exchanged a glance, both seeing the gravity in each other's eyes.

"Ants from a low-level continent, you dare to provoke this King?"

A thick, ink-black Devilish Qi was already rapidly gathering in Xiang Jue's palm, surging and pulsing with energy.

He struck out with a palm, fierce and unyielding.

Hall Master Li reacted extremely quickly, pouring all the Spiritual Qi in his body into his sword.

He shouted in a low voice, "Sword Shield!"

The long sword in his hand rose in response, spinning rapidly in the air and condensing into a protective light screen.

At the same time, the Arrow-Poison Demon Sage did not hesitate, opening his mouth to spew out wisps of green mist. He shouted in a deep voice, "Poison Gas Barrier!"

The green mist condensed rapidly, forming a green protective cover in front of the two of them, reflecting off the silver sword shield.

"Hmph! Mere parlor tricks." Xiang Jue snorted coldly, and the pitch-black palm print crashed down.

"Heavenly Demon Palm!" With an angry roar, the palm print tore through the air and smashed onto the dual defenses.

"Bang!" "Boom!" Two loud noises exploded in succession, and a powerful blast shockwave swept across the surrounding area.

The protective light screen shattered instantly, and Spiritual Qi and poison gas splattered everywhere.

"Pfft!" "Pfft!" The Arrow-Poison Demon Sage and Hall Master Li simultaneously spat out a mouthful of blood.

Both figures plummeted from the sky like kites with broken strings, crashing toward the ground.

"Hahaha!" Xiang Jue, standing high in the sky, looked up and laughed wildly.

But before he could enjoy it for even a single breath, a sharp pain suddenly struck his chest. "Pfft!" A mouthful of black blood spewed out violently.

"You... when did you poison this King?" Xiang Jue's body trembled violently, unable to hold on any longer. "Bang!" He fell from the high altitude, smashing a deep crater into the ground.

"Haha... cough, cough... The poison of our Poison Dart Frog race ranks in the top five across the myriad worlds." The Arrow-Poison Demon Sage, lying in the crater, slowly raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"You... you are actually from the Poison Dart Frog race." Upon hearing this, Xiang Jue's body jolted violently. As he spoke, he spat out another mouthful of blood, his aura growing increasingly weak.

Xiang Tian looked at Yue Lin beside him. He said in a deep voice, "Yue Lin, this Demon Race is at the end of his rope, but he is definitely not simple."

"Even if the few of us work together, we may not be able to kill him completely." Yue Lin frowned deeply.

Xiang Tian rubbed his chin, deep in thought. Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he remembered a Talisman the Ancestor of the Xiang Clan had once given him.

"Yue Lin, I have a Talisman in my hand, take a look." Saying this, he took out the Talisman and handed it to Yue Lin.

"Hiss! This Talisman is not simple!" Yue Lin's beautiful eyes widened as she carefully examined the Talisman. "The energy inside is very strong! Where did you get this?"

Xiang Tian raised an eyebrow and asked, "In other words, the energy of this Talisman exceeds that of a Saint?"

"That's right. What is certain is that its energy has long surpassed my own strength." Yue Lin nodded solemnly.

"Alright then, I'll leave this Talisman to you." Xiang Tian stuffed the Talisman into Yue Lin's hand without hesitation.

"You want me to use this Talisman to deal with that Demon Race?"

"Do you have any other way?" Xiang Tian frowned deeply.

"Hmm! Alright, I will join forces with the other Old Ancestors to deal with him." Yue Lin nodded. After speaking, her figure flashed, and she secretly sent a voice transmission to the other Old Ancestors.

After learning the situation, the Old Ancestors agreed without a second thought and quickly arrived at the battlefield.

"Just by relying on you few Early Stage Saints, you want to deal with me?" Xiang Jue was still lying in the deep crater, his aura weak, looking as if he didn't have much strength left.

Yet his tone remained arrogant, "Even if I am severely injured and poisoned, don't think you can kill me."

As he spoke, he slowly stood up from the ground. The residual Devilish Qi around him was still surging stubbornly.

Yue Lin and the group of Old Ancestors did not waste words. After exchanging glances, they directly unleashed their strongest techniques. One after another, powerful attacks bombarded Xiang Jue.

"Hehe, these strikes of yours can't even break my defense; they're just tickling me." Xiang Jue sneered.

Half a quarter of an hour passed. Xiang Jue still stood steadily in the crater, completely unharmed. To him, those attacks were indeed just like tickling.

Yue Lin glanced at the Old Ancestors, and they understood tacitly. Each of them launched a move to restrain Xiang Jue, then retreated from the battlefield.

Seeing this, a fierce glint flashed in Yue Lin's eyes. She quietly mixed the Talisman into her Spiritual Qi. She shouted in a low voice: "Demon Race, take this!"

A ball of Spiritual Qi, condensed with the power of the Talisman, carried immense energy as it struck rapidly toward Xiang Jue.

"Hehe, it's been so long, have you managed to cause even the slightest injury to my skin?" Xiang Jue sneered disdainfully.

But before his smile could fade, a heaven-shaking explosion erupted once more. "Boom!"

A massive mushroom cloud rose from the bottom of the crater into the sky. The dazzling light illuminated the entire sky, and a powerful shockwave swept across the surrounding area once again.

"Ah!" A shrill roar resounded for a hundred miles around.

In the center of the mushroom cloud, a black demonic sphere slowly rose, carrying the residual Devilish Qi, and shot rapidly into the sky.

"Very well, this King will remember you all." "If you have the ability, don't ever leave this low-level continent!"

As soon as the words fell, wisps of black Devilish Qi separated from the demonic sphere and quickly merged into the bodies of Xiang Tian and the others.

"Damn, what did this Demon Race do to me?" Xiang Tian frowned deeply. He hurriedly called out to the System, "System, hurry up and remove this Devilish Qi!"

[Host, the Devilish Qi in your body has already been cleared by this System immediately.]

"It's a good thing I have the System." Xiang Tian let out a long sigh of relief. His hanging heart finally settled down.

[Host, who told you that you would be fine just because the Devilish Qi was cleared?]

"What?" Xiang Tian was stunned. He frowned again, "What else is there?"

[Your information has already been grasped by that Demon Race.]

"Damn, isn't this cheating?" Xiang Tian couldn't help but complain.

[Host, do not worry too much. With this System here, everyone in the myriad worlds is trash.]

"Hehe, who doesn't know how to brag?" Xiang Tian said disdainfully. "I spent 100,000 face-slapping points, and in the end, he still ran away!"

[Host, this was originally just a Clone of his; no amount of points would have been of any use.] [Being able to drive his Clone away is already quite good.]

The man and the System argued incessantly. Meanwhile, the scene outside the crater was even more chaotic. When Xiang Tian opened his eyes and regained his composure, he discovered that the surroundings were already packed with people; members of various Families and the royal Family had all arrived.

"Xiang Tian, are you hurt?" Xiahou Yu flew over quickly with a group of women, immediately surrounding Xiang Tian.

"I'm fine. It's simply wonderful to see you all again." Xiang Tian hugged each of the women in turn. His heart was filled with the relief of having survived a disaster. This great battle was truly too perilous.

"Xiang Tian, what exactly happened here?" Princess Zhou Zhiyan frowned deeply, looking around. "This Xiang Family has been razed to the ground."

Xiang Tian also looked around. The pavilions and arenas of the past had now all turned into dust, and he felt a wave of emotion in his heart. He shook his head and said, "I'm not very clear about it either."

Immediately after, he raised an eyebrow. "Since I've survived a disaster, shouldn't we have a big sleepover together tonight?"

"Hmph! You're dreaming." Yan Linfei snorted coldly, her cheeks slightly flushed.

While this group was chatting lively, over on the side of the various Families, the atmosphere was very tense and not harmonious at all.

"Why would a Demon Race appear?" The Heavenly Fortune Emperor frowned deeply and asked in a deep voice.

"How would I know? Isn't this the Xiang Family's Young Lord Selection Ceremony?" Ancestor Zhou shook his head. Immediately, he cast his gaze upon the Ancestor of the Xiang Clan.

Seeing this, the people from the other various Families also turned their gazes toward the Ancestor of the Xiang Clan.

The Ancestor of the Xiang Clan frowned deeply, his expression grave. He said in a deep voice, "If I remember correctly, the Physical Body of that Demon Race should be Xiang Jue."

Xiang Jue was once a descendant he had placed high hopes on. He never expected that he would actually collude with the Demon Race, bringing a catastrophic disaster to the Xiang Family.

Just then, Patriarch Xiang walked up quickly. He bowed and said, "Old Ancestor, I have already brought the people of Xiang Jue's Family."

The Ancestor of the Xiang Clan's gaze sank. With an awe-inspiring dignity, he said, "Xiang Qin, you explain how Xiang Jue colluded with the Demon Race?"

"Old Ancestor, this little one really doesn't know!" Xiang Qin was so scared that he knelt down immediately. His Family members also knelt down one after another, kowtowing repeatedly to beg for mercy.

"Hmph! Do you know how much harm Xiang Jue has brought to the Family?" The Ancestor of the Xiang Clan snorted coldly. "Look at the Xiang Family; what kind of ghost-forsaken state has it become now?"
