Chapter 395 - 58: Who Do You Think You Are? Swiftly Slaying Tier Nine
In an instant.
The party was already approaching under the Empress’s control, and before long, the once-grand Ice Dragon Valley appeared before everyone once more.
At the original site of the valley now stood a gigantic ice peak, with a palace formed of ice perched at its summit.
The Empress frowned slightly because she could not sense any aura of the Cold Abyss God.
Something felt off.
The next moment.
Mana surged, and a massive Five Elements Wheel appeared in the sky, empowered by the Divine Embryo·Five Elements.
With the fusion of five unique elements, the Empress wielded this magical attack effortlessly.
No need to gather power — the Five Elements Wheel emitted an aura capable of shredding everything, reaching the formidable Tier Nine might.
At the same time.
Two more Five Elements Wheels emerged, crashing toward the palace atop the ice peak, shattering countless voids along the way, and the chilling ice energy exploded outward.
"Everyone, aren’t you being excessively aggressive, attacking someone else’s home right as you arrive!"
The next moment.
A light laugh echoed from the sky, as an endless stream of icy aura materialized, transforming into an unbroken glacier colliding with the three wheels.
"Boom——!"
A thunderous roar erupted, and countless ripples of energy spread outward like a meteor crashing into the ocean.
Simultaneously, several figures appeared, adorned in black or white robes — six in total, each exuding a Tier Nine presence.
The Celestial Dao Demon Venerable narrowed his eyes, stating coldly, "Do you think this can slay us?"
In the past, they might have worried about such things, but not now.
Within his Jiuli Array were the Ice Dragon and others; could less than ten Tier Nine opponents stop them?
The white-robed man who had just acted merely smiled, "Of course not, but it’s enough to hold you back."
The next moment.
One black-robed figure’s eyes gleamed with silver light, and suddenly a giant orb appeared in the sky — a huge eyeball with a hard shell.
It had tentacles constantly swaying, and as this illusion appeared, the surrounding space seemed to solidify.
"We’re just here to stall— until the Cold Abyss God completely destroys the Ural Defense Line..."
A cold smile formed beneath the black-robed figure’s hood, "Even the Nest Mother had to intervene in this operation; your master has offended too many."
The Empress said coldly, "A diversion. Why waste time talking? Kill them first.
Then we go back and kill that Cold Abyss God."
In an instant.
Emperor Fire, Celestial River, Spirit Wood, Divine Gold, and Exotic Soil appeared one after another, forming a colossal wheel behind the Empress.
The three massive wheels suddenly crashed toward the white-robed figure, and the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable entered the ’Demon Venerable’ mode.
A mighty aura exploded forth, and the Ice Dragon and others appeared instantly.
The Celestial Dao Demon Venerable grinned fiendishly, "Did you really think that ragtag bunch could hold us off for long?"
In an instant.
Taking a step forward caused the ground to quake, akin to a giant shaking the earth, charging toward the Eye Demon who had summoned the Nest Mother Illusion.
The Jasper Pool strummed a zither, its music spreading outward, while True Martial encased everyone in True Martial Armor, transforming into a blood and flesh giant beast, activating the ’Great Demon’ state.
For these Tier Nine foes, there was no need for her to enter the ’Blood and Flesh’ state to block damage.
As for the Medicine Ancestor, he held the central position.
"If we’re daring to block you, it means we’re confident!"
The Eye Demon sneered, seeing the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable charging at him, another eyeball appeared in his hand, and he crushed it fiercely.
In an instant.
The black robe was torn apart by the terrifying force, revealing a form undeniably similar to the Nest Mother Illusion behind him.
Instantly.
The massive eyeball gathered silver light within, harnessing terrible power, and blasted a column of light toward the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable.
"With just you people?"
The Celestial Dao Demon Venerable merely smirked, "Heaven-Slaying Fist!"
The next moment.
A force of unparalleled dominance surged forth like a tidal wave, colliding with the silver light instantly.
’Boom——!’
The silver light fractured crazily in an instant, yet the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable didn’t pause for even a moment.
He continued his assault on the Eye Demon.
The Eye Demon was filled with astonishment; even after becoming the Eye Demon, could he really do no harm to the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable?
But the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable’s fist was already closing in. Suddenly, silver light flashed again, and the void shattered violently, forming countless tiny fissures that enveloped the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable.
Like countless little mouths, they continued gnawing at the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable.
"Too weak, too weak!"
The Celestial Dao Demon Venerable only let out a wild laugh, completely ignoring it; in an instant, his fist was already in front of the Eye Demon.
The Eye Demon had no choice but to swing his powerful tentacles, clashing with the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable’s fist instantly.
But in the moment of collision.
The large eyeball of the Eye Demon filled with sheer panic as he felt an overwhelming force nearly crushing his entire body with that punch.
So immense that he couldn’t resist; his entire form was forced to retreat thousands of feet, with the tentacles that had blocked the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable now completely shattered.
On the other side.
The face of the white-robed figure who had just confronted the Empress’s three Five Elements Wheels also changed, the mask on his face long shattered.
Revealing a familiar face known to the Empress, still filled with shock, "How is this possible?"
According to his calculations, the only thing capable of such Tier Nine suppression should be that Warrior Summoned Beast.
When he infiltrated the Ural Defense Line, he witnessed it clearly: after undergoing transformation.
That Mage Summoned Beast’s magic had to be employed with all its might to reach Tier Nine, yet now it effortlessly unleashed Tier Nine might.
How many days had passed?
Was Shen Fei’s ability truly so terrifying? Was there no limit to his power growth?
"Dugu Hongchen... it really is you." The Empress stated calmly, as if there was no need for validation.
Just calculating was enough to know, within the Ural Defense Line, the most probable Demon was none other than Dugu Hongchen.
"A diversion, are you not afraid of being devoured by the tiger?!"
The Empress sneered, the next moment making the world lose color, and Colorless Realm Divine Power surged, further invoking the Lix Mountain Empress bloodline.
The Colorless Realm Divine Power transformed into the Lix Mountain Divine Domain.
Dugu Hongchen felt the power of confinement, and the equipment on his body suddenly activated, frantically dispelling the surrounding forces.
But in an instant, Dugu Hongchen saw that the Empress had already vanished from where she stood.
She appeared before a Tier Nine battling an Ice Spirit, petals flashing by.
"Ah!"
Amidst a scream, countless waves of mana exploded, shattering it into pieces as the resurrection skill activated, but as soon as the resurrection occurred, the petals were still swirling.
Three times consecutively, a Tier Nine perished completely.
Suddenly.
Dugu Hongchen instinctively felt his scalp tingle; how had the Empress’s strength reached such a level?
It utterly exceeded their estimations, and such misjudgment of the opponent’s strength would be fatal for them.
"Damn it!"
Dugu Hongchen’s form erupted with rings of red light, his aura skyrocketing, until his original human shape could no longer be maintained.
Transforming into a gigantic figure emitting icy chills all over, the frost upon his body continuously released, freezing everything.
