Chapter 473 Reinforcements Flee, Expelled from Extremity Dao
With the incarnation, Qing Holy Maiden, casting "Spatial Confinement" and "Fire Dragon Technique," the Peak Venerable suddenly realized that the space around him was being ruthlessly compressed. Following close behind, nine fire pythons, like furious dragons emerging from the sea, charged at him with a momentum that could destroy heaven and earth.
His face drastically changed, hastily mobilizing all his Spiritual Power. The Gold Path Sword radiated brilliantly, forming a golden light shield in an attempt to parry this fatal blow with its unstoppable sword light.
However, Qing Holy Maiden's Path of Fire had reached a state of perfection. The fire pythons, made of Sixth Stage Spiritual Fire, were not only incredibly fast but also contained the essence of the Principle of Fire. Despite the strength of Peak Venerable's sword light, it merely managed to resist for a moment before being devoured one by one by the fire pythons, turning into nothingness.
The Peak Venerable's Origin True Body, as well as his physical form, were immediately engulfed by flames and incinerated into oblivion in an instant. Only the Gold Path Sword and the Storage Ring that Qing Holy Maiden intentionally left behind floated in the air, which she then collected into the System Space.
This scene moved everyone present. It all happened so quickly that they had no time to intervene; they could only watch as the Peak Venerable fell.
Bingyu Venerable, Falling Wood Venerable, Money Venerable, Jiuling Venerable, and Cute Venerable quickly gathered together, their Origin True Bodies forming a circle, warily watching Qing Holy Maiden to prevent her from defeating them one by one.
"Useless!" Qing Holy Maiden gave a slight smile, her smile exuding an undeniable confidence. She swept her gaze over the five Venerables gathered in a circle, "Do you think you can defeat me just because you outnumber me? Ridiculous!"
With that said, Qing Holy Maiden's figure flickered again, masterfully employing the Shrinking Earth Technique to instantly appear at the flank of Jiuling Venerable.
Jiuling Venerable's expression shifted subtly as he swiftly swung the Ice King Staff, emitting biting cold, while Bingyu Venerable also hurriedly operated the Frost Path Sword. Under their control, a huge ice sphere enveloped the Origin True Bodies of the five.
Qing Holy Maiden controlled nine fire pythons in attacking the Chill Ice Sphere Shell, which began to melt, but Bingyu Venerable and Jiuling Venerable continued to deploy Dao Techniques to replenish it, while Falling Wood Venerable and Money Venerable used the power of space to reinforce the ice sphere shield.
For a while, Qing Holy Maiden was unable to break through the defense of the ice sphere.
After attacking fruitlessly for several breaths, Qing Holy Maiden flashed a devilish smile and looked towards the battle between Cangsheng Venerable and Aotian Venerable on the other side.
Aotian Venerable, a cultivator who also practiced Dual Cultivation of Law and Body, displayed a Law Manifestation Origin True Body that emitted an aura of contempt for heaven and earth. In his hands, the Dragon God Bow was paired with nine Dragon God Arrows; after each shot was repelled by Cangsheng Venerable, it automatically flew back to Aotian Venerable's hand.
Despite the formidable Cangsheng Record and Congregation Mace of Cangsheng Venerable, he was hard-pressed to cope with the continuous attacks of the Dragon God Arrows.
Qing Holy Maiden continued to attack the ice sphere with the nine fire pythons while controlling the Space-Shattering Sword, slashing towards Aotian Venerable.
The Space-Shattering Sword transformed into a dazzling streak of light, tearing through the sky, aiming directly at the back of Aotian Venerable just as he had loosed an arrow.
This strike by Qing Holy Maiden was clearly premeditated, timed to perfection.
Aotian Venerable naturally felt Qing Holy Maiden's attack. Facing the attack of the Superior Dao Artefact, the Space-Shattering Sword, even with his Divine Transformation Late Stage physical body, he dared not take it head-on. He turned his Law Manifestation True Body backward, while at the same time pulling back his Dragon God Bow.
"Clang~" The Space-Shattering Sword was sent askew by the hit of the Dragon God Bow.
"Sect of Commoners, unleash your fury!" Cangsheng Venerable also seized the opportunity, as mystic power radiated from the Cangsheng Record, infusing into the Congregation Mace, which then sped towards Aotian Venerable.
"Nine Arrows as One, Dragon Tail Sweep!" Aotian Venerable's nine Dragon God Arrows instantly returned before him, merging into a single arrow, and he fired it without using the Dragon God Bow. It collided with the Congregation Mace of Cangsheng Venerable.
Facing the combined assault of Cangsheng Venerable and Qing Holy Maiden, Aotian Venerable displayed astounding adaptability and immense cultivation level. A cold smile formed on his lips, and a relentless sparkle flickered in his eyes.
Nine Arrows as One transformed into a singular Dragon God Arrow containing the power to destroy heavens and earth, and its collision with the Congregation Mace caused a deafening roar, as if space itself were being torn apart, ultimately leaving neither side victorious.
"Hmph, what do I have to fear when facing two alone!" he bellowed, his spiritual power boiling within him. His Law Manifestation True Body glowed brilliantly, as if it was about to burst through the skies. A golden protective shell manifested on the surface of his Law Manifestation True Body; this was the effect of the Supreme Yang Body, significantly enhancing his defense and strength.
Then, Aotian Venerable used the Dragon God Bow to shoot out the reformed nine Dragon God Arrows even faster, six targeting Cangsheng Venerable, and three aimed at Qing Holy Maiden, who were now busily dodging and parrying.
However, even for Aotian Venerable, facing two opponents exerted unprecedented pressure on him. Cangsheng Venerable's harmony between the Cangsheng Record and Congregation Mace contained some mystic power in each strike. Moreover, with Qing Holy Maiden suppressing Bingyu Venerable and four others while still attacking him, he felt a profound sense of helplessness.
He then gave a meaningful glance to Qian Venerable, who understood and pulled out a Fifth Stage Escape Charm.
"We should retreat now!" Qian Venerable communicated to Bingyu Venerable, Falling Wood Venerable, Jiuling Venerable, and Chaomeng Venerable. Without waiting for their reply, he activated the Fifth Stage Escape Charm, and their figures instantly disappeared within the ice sphere.
Qing Holy Maiden noticed their escape but had no effective means to stop it. Her Spatial Confinement couldn't trap Divine Transformation Mid Stage Cultivators using Fifth Stage Escape Charms, and it was also inconvenient to use the Mind Immobilizing Spell.
Seeing the five of them leave, Aotian Venerable also transformed into a streak of golden light and departed from the battlefield after shooting the nine arrows.
Cangsheng Venerable and Qing Holy Maiden did not pursue, for killing a cultivator in the Divine Transformation Late Stage was too difficult. Moreover, although the monk can run, the temple can't; the Mountain Gate of Red Dust Demon Sect was no secret.
"Qing Holy Maiden, your strength is truly beyond my expectations!" Cangsheng Venerable approached her and said.
"The strength of the Sect Hierarch also leaves me in awe!" Qing Holy Maiden returned the compliment.
"Hahaha, with us joining forces, why should we worry about injustice in this world!" Cangsheng Venerable laughed heartily, then began commanding the Sect Members of Sect of Commoners through the Cangsheng Record to take over the territory of the Extreme Path Demon Sect.
Afterwards, Qing Holy Maiden released the captured Shouyu Venerable, and commanded him to lead her and Cangsheng Venerable into the Extreme Path Demon Sect to search for their Treasure Vault.
Soon, the three of them had thoroughly plundered the resources of Extreme Path Demon Sect, Cangsheng Venerable and Qing Holy Maiden dividing one tenth each, with the remaining eighty percent used to further strengthen and expand the Sect of Commoners.
However, the Secret Realm of Extreme Path Demon Sect was not yet in their possession, as the key to open the realm was still held by Bingyu Venerable.
Despite this, when Cangsheng Venerable crushed the Mountain Gate of Extreme Path Demon Sect with one palm strike, it marked the complete destruction of the Southeast Region's Extreme Path Demon Sect, an institution that had endured for over ten thousand years.
