Chapter 451: Grand State Master, Turn the Tide
Although Anna was a demonic cultivator, she was only a newborn demonic cultivator after all. On the other hand, Liao Xingzhi was a famous battle beast tamer in the independent cultivator world. Liao Xingzhi’s Goat Horn Hammer beast form was the same as Liuli Shao and Mo Yuelou’s. It was a natural battle beast form.
Even Xuanyuan Shen might not have a chance of winning against Liao Xingzhi, let alone the newborn demonic cultivator Anna.
Anna looked up at the hammer that was rapidly smashing down on her head. She knew that there was no way out this time, and she was unwilling to struggle.
Anna looked down at the seriously injured Icy Night T-Rex. The demonic aura in her eyes dissipated, and her brown eyes were filled with tears again. “T-Rex, live well…”
Even if she was gone, the T-Rex had to live well.
The T-Rex heard Anna’s parting words. He looked up at her and suddenly roared at the sky. He dragged his seriously injured body and flew towards Anna’s head without hesitation.
At the critical moment, the Icy Night T-Rex chose to use its body to help Anna withstand Liao Xingzhi’s thousand-pound hammer!
Bang!
The thousand-pound hammer smashed into the Icy Night T-Rex’s huge body, causing its spine to cave in.
“Roar!” The Icy Night T-Rex let out a painful cry as its body fell into the abyss rift.
“T-Rex!”
Anna’s eyes almost popped out when she saw the T-Rex fall into the abyss’ crack.
Anna raised her head and looked at Xuanyuan Shen, Liao Xingzhi, and the others. Her eyes were red as she scolded, “You hurt my mother and killed my lover. Are your actions really upright?!”
Liao Xingzhi saw that Anna’s magic eye had disappeared and she could talk to people like a normal person. He retracted his hammer and looked at Anna in shock. He couldn’t help but ask in surprise, “You can actually control her demonic form?”
At the side, Diwu Yujie also noticed Anna’s change.
“What’s going on? Didn’t they say that demonic cultivators can’t control their consciousness?” But Anna, who was still emitting demonic aura a second ago, had returned to normal in the blink of an eye.
Was she really a demonic cultivator?
Liao Xingzhi suddenly realized that Anna might not be a fiendish cultivator. He looked at Anna and said guiltily, “If you can control your demonic nature, you’re not a heinous fiendish cultivator. I was rash today.”
With that, Liao Xingzhi looked down at the abyss rift.
He recalled how the Tyrannosaurus sacrificed itself to save Anna and was slightly moved.
Although the Icy Night T-Rex was a demon beast, it was more loyal than a human man. It was admirable. However, the damage had been done and the T-Rex had fallen into the abyss. Liao Xingzhi knew that he had made a mistake, but he couldn’t remedy it.
Liao Xingzhi sighed and suddenly said to Xuanyuan Shen, “Grand Master Xuanyuan, I think this girl called Anna hasn’t completely lost her human consciousness. She’s not a true demonic cultivator. It’s time for us to stop this demon suppression operation. This child killed three of Xuanyuan Clan’s guest elders, and you also killed her mother and indirectly killed her lover. In my opinion, why don’t we cancel this grudge?”
Diwu Yujie nodded as well. “Grand Master Liao is right. Since Anna isn’t a fiendish cultivator, there is no need for this demon suppression operation to exist.”
When Xuanyuan Shen heard their words, his expression didn’t change at all. “Forget it?”
Xuanyuan Shen sneered and said, “Demonic cultivators are cunning. This girl can suppress her demonic nature for a while, but can she suppress it forever? Since ancient times, no demonic cultivator has been able to successfully suppress its demonic nature. If we don’t get rid of this girl now, she will become a huge disaster sooner or later!”
“Since you guys are afraid to attack, let me do it!” With that said, Xuanyuan Shen suddenly punched himself in the chest. That punch directly made him stagger a little, and he opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of dark red blood at Anna.
Blood splattered in the sky, forming a bloody mist.
At the same time, the unicorn rhinoceros standing behind Xuanyuan Shen was summoned by Xuanyuan Shen. It jumped into the blood mist, and its beast body immediately turned into hundreds of black iron ropes.
Blood stained the iron rope, and the rope immediately emitted a terrifying energy.
Anna stared at the iron ropes and a wave of fear erupted from the depths of her soul. She wanted to resist, but under the pressure of that energy, she was actually unable to use her own energy.
Presumably, the iron rope contained energy that could suppress magic power!
Xuanyuan Shen cut open his palm again and let more blood merge with the iron rope. Under Xuanyuan Shen’s control, the iron rope quickly turned into a shell that looked like a cicada.
Xuanyuan Shen pushed the cicada with his palm and roared, “Demon Sealing Array!”
The cicada shell immediately flew towards Anna and wrapped around her.
As Xuanyuan Shen flipped his palm, the iron rope tightened, making Anna an imprisoned silkworm.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Shen suddenly chanted a dark and incomprehensible incantation. As the incantation sounded, countless sharp thorns suddenly appeared on the iron ropes. The sharp thorns all pierced into Anna’s body and mercilessly squeezed into her body.
Anna’s entire body was pierced by the spikes. She could no longer bear the pain and let out a shrill scream—
“Ah!!”
The petite woman actually let out a hair-raising cry.
Liao Xingzhi could no longer bear to watch. He shouted angrily at Xuanyuan Shen, “Xuanyuan Shen! How can you treat a little girl in such a cruel way?!” Xuanyuan Shen clearly wanted to stab Anna and strangle her to death!
But was she really guilty to the point of deserving death?
Xuanyuan Shen snorted. “Mind your own business!”
Liao Xingzhi was furious.
Anna’s screams became more and more miserable. Blood flowed out of her body and dyed her white dress red.
Seeing that the time was right, Xuanyuan Shen’s lips curled up into a smug smile. He suddenly closed his eyes, placed his palms together, and slapped the center heavily!
When that palm slapped down, a palm appeared on Xuanyuan Shen’s head. The palm became larger and larger, and in the end, it was as tall as a hundred-meter-tall building.
Seeing this scene, Diwu Yujie shouted, “It’s the Demon Annihilation Palm!”
The Demon Annihilation Palm was the strongest move in the Xuanyuan family’s ancestral cultivation technique, the Demon Annihilation Record. Thousands of years ago, the founder of the Xuanyuan family, Xuanyuan Chaosheng, had used this move to defeat Ouyang Sheng, the great demon, and turn him into ashes.
And today, Xuanyuan Shen actually used this move on Anna. He clearly wanted Anna to be reduced to ashes!
The large palm slowly descended from the sky and slapped towards Anna with a destructive aura.
Liao Xingzhi wanted to save Anna, but he couldn’t guarantee that he would be able to withstand the Demon Annihilation Palm.
In the end, Liao Xingzhi didn’t stand up to help Anna.
After all, Anna was a demonic cultivator who had killed three Beast Tamers. She wasn’t worth him risking his life to save.
When Anna saw the large palm slapping towards her, she resigned herself to fate and closed her eyes. In that instant, the appearances of her mentor, Yu Huang, Jiang Shangfeng, Vivian, and the Icy Night T-Rex flashed across her mind.
In the end, the image of the Icy Night T-Rex falling into the abyss crack was fixed in Anna’s mind.
She was going to accompany him…
Just as the Demon Annihilation Palm was about to land on Anna, a powerful and boundless energy suddenly rushed out from the distant abyss rift!
A purple-black spiritual energy ball appeared in front of Anna. It transformed into the appearance of a nine-tailed fox and bared its sharp teeth at Xuanyuan Shen while letting out a shocking roar. “Roar!”
“Nine-tailed fox!”
“Could it be the Grand State Master of the Divine Moon Empire?!”
The nine-tailed fox shook its butt, and its nine huge tails suddenly swayed and rose from behind its butt. At the same time, the sky above the forest instantly became covered in dark clouds.
Lightning surged in the dark clouds. The nine-tailed fox cried out and jumped up, colliding with the huge palm! At the same time, the lightning struck down from the sky and struck the huge palm.
The fox and the lightning worked together, and shattered the powerful palm in the blink of an eye!
The Demon Annihilation Palm was disintegrated, and Xuanyuan Shen suffered the backlash of this wave of energy. He immediately flew back dozens of meters and staggered a few steps before barely stabilizing his body.
“Xuanyuan Shen, you’re too willful!” The voice came from the abyss rift.
Everyone lowered their heads and looked at the abyss rift. They saw black fog rising from the rift. Immediately after, a majestic nine-tailed fox slowly rose from the abyss rift. On the nine-tailed fox’s back, there was the dying Icy Night T-Rex.
Seeing that the Icy Night T-Rex was still alive, Anna’s eyes, which were filled with despair, immediately shone with optimism.
“It’s really the Grand State Master…”
There was only one black nine-tailed fox in the entire Holy Spirit Continent, and that was the Divine Moon Empire’s Grand State Master!
This lord had broken through to the Prime Master realm seven hundred years ago!
Currently, there were only a few Prime Masters on the Holy Spirit Continent. However, among these Prime Masters, the Grand State Master was the first to break through to the Prime Master realm.
The Prime Masters of the same generation as him had all died for various reasons. Logically speaking, the Grand State Master’s cultivation level had been stagnant at the Prime Master Realm for 700 years and he had yet to break through. He should have died long ago. However, the Grand State Master still looked handsome and didn’t seem to have aged.
This person was far more unfathomable than he appeared.
Xuanyuan Shen wasn’t as careful even when facing the Caro Clan’s Prime Emperor Zhengyang.
The nine-tailed fox appeared from the abyss rift. He shook his body and placed the Icy Night T-Rex on the ground. Then, he jumped into the sky and stood in front of Anna. When he reappeared, the black nine-tailed fox had already transformed into an adult man.
The man was wearing a black combat suit. From afar, he looked handsome, but his blue eyes looked as cold as a glacier.
After seeing the man’s face clearly, Liao Xingzhi exclaimed in a low voice, “He’s really the Grand State Master!”
Being stared at by Mo Xiao’s cold eyes, Xuanyuan Shen felt as if he had fallen into a glacier.
Xuanyuan Shen braced himself and pretended to be calm as he said, “Grand State Master, did you just say that I’m willful and reckless? But since when did eradicating demons become something willful and reckless?”
