“I heard that Brother Cheng and Mrs. Cheng’s Yin-Yang Profound Fire Technique is extremely powerful. Why don’t we let them give it a shot first!”

“Yes!”

The Dual Cultivators of Thunder Cloud Mountain glanced at each other and did not object. Since it was determined that they would join forces, it would be foolish to drag things down.

The two stood up, ran their Spiritual Qi, and countless Fireballs floated around them, except that these Fireballs were a bit strange, Mrs. Cheng’s was cyan, and her husband’s one was blue.

“Form!”

The two people used a Spirit Art, and pointed at the Fireballs in front of them at nearly the same time, the blue and cyan Fireballs immediately touched each other and began to merge.

The newly generated Fireball was purple.

“This is the Yin-Yang Profound Fire?”

Even the Blood Demon Ancestor, who mastered the Demonic Arts, showed a trace of fear.

“Yes, my husband and I cultivated the Yin-Yang Profound Fire for more than 20 years. Although it can’t be compared with the Three Colored True Fire of Nascent Soul Stage Seniors, I’m confident that it’s no weaker than Core Formation Stage Experts fire attributed techniques.” Mrs. Cheng smiled proudly. On the other hand, her husband had a dull expression and said nothing. But the people present were all acquainted with the Daoist couple. The husband’s cultivation was obviously better than that of his wife. However, this person is not good with his words, but no one dared to underestimate him.

“Go!”

At the same time, the two of them stretched out their palms simultaneously, and slowly pushed them forward. The Fireball suddenly turned into a purple meteor and whizzed toward the Sword Thorn Tigers.

With a loud bang, the first few Spirit Beasts were hit by the Yin-Yang Profound Fire and exploded onto a mess of flesh and blood. And the Spirit Beasts beside them, even if they were only touched by the flame, also wailed in pain.

“Nice!”

Everyone’s faces showed happy expressions, the Yin-Yang Profound Fire’s reputation was well deserved. Although the Sword Thorn Tiger was only a Level-2 Spirit Beast, its defense was outrageous. Even if a Magic Artifact is used, it would still be difficult to deal a heavy blow to it.

The flames had opened a passage, but everyone did not fly through the sky, because the Sword Thorn Tigers are also capable of flight, and they are more difficult to deal with in the sky.

Of course, if one could exit the canyon, then they would be in an open area. With the flying speed of a Magic Artifact, it would not be difficult to get rid of them. But the premise is that one must first break out of the siege.

Unlike humans, Spirit Beasts were even more ferocious and were not afraid of death. Seeing the misery of their companions, not only did the Sword Thorn Tigers not retreat, but they roared and rushed over.

“Courting death!”

A trace of killing intent flashed across the Hundred Poison Boy’s eyes. His chubby little hand patted his chest, and several strands of black light flew out of his arms and hovered over his head. With a buzzing sound, it was a group of black bees, and there were hundreds of them.

“Go!”

A slight hesitation was seen on the face of the Hundred Poison Boy, but he still did a hand-seal and used a Spiritual Art. Pointing at the bees, suddenly, the black cloud leaped forward towards the Sword Thorn Tigers.

The tigers roared fiercely, after a few seconds, the dark cloud left, and the Sword Thorn Tigers, which were said to be invincible, were bleeding from their orifices and fell wailing. But unfortunately, the size of the black cloud has also decreased, and many of the strange wasps had fallen from the sky.

“Overlord Poison Bee!”

“Yes, it’s just that this poisonous insect, the Hundred Poison Boy, wouldn’t easily give up, I am afraid that it’s his trump card. Didn’t expect him to actually take them out.”

“It’s nothing strange, the old ghost has always been strong, and seeing that we had the means to kill those Sword Thorn Tigers. But there was nothing that he could do. Not to mention that the loss of self-esteem would be worse than death to him. However, the Sword Thorn Tigers can resist poison. Apart from the few rare toxins in the world, the others are useless. He had no choice but to do so. “

..,

The Righteous Path cultivator’s argument was not wrong. Although Hundred Poison Boy commanded his Spirit Insects to kill the Spirit Beasts, he felt pain in his heart. Overlord Poison Bees were not that better than other venomous insects, although they possessed amazing power, as, after just one sting, it would die a while later, with one less every time. And the hatching of this insect was very difficult. He only hatched around a thousand, but now, after using them once, one-third of them were…

In addition to the Hundred Poison Boy and the pair of cultivators, the others also applied their own means. Master Feng Lei’s dual attribute Flying Sword, Ouyang Qin’s Sound Wave Technique, as for the Blood Demon Ancestor, it was even more bizarre. He incarnated into a cloud of blood and wrapped around the two approaching Spirit Beasts. A few moments later, from the blood cloud, the Spirit Beasts thrown out were only skin and bones. Seeing this, the crowd felt a chill, this old monster.… they didn’t think he’d even suck the blood of Spirit Beasts!

Taibai Sword Immortal burst into laughter, he turned into a ray of white light and cut the Spirit Beast in front of him in half. Man and sword as one, the character of this guy would not be discussed for the time being, but his mastery of the Dao is really profound.

…

When the Demonic and Righteous factions joined forces to fight the Spirit Beasts, Lin Xuan hid nervously and watched the Sky Fiend Demon Lord’s every move.

This was somewhat different from what he had planned.

Originally, Lin Xuan wanted to wait for the Experts of both sides and the Sky Fiend Demon Lord to suffer losses. And then come to fish in troubled waters, so that he’d benefit as the fishermen.

Although on the surface, with the Sky Fiend Demon Lord being by himself, the power of both sides was no longer the same.

However, Lin Xuan knew clearly that although there are many Righteous and Demonic cultivators, they were actually restraining each other. In fact, not to mention that the Immortal Cultivators and Demonic Cultivators were incompatible with each other, even within the Big Three, or between several old demons, they belonged to different Sects. They just seemed to be harmonious on the surface.

Needless to say, Taibai Sword Immortal was more cunning and treacherous. As an Elder of Blue Cloud Mountain, he had an ambiguous relationship with the Demonic Faction. It was hard to say which side he will stand on.

If people weren’t united, they’d naturally do things badly.

Secondly, Lin Xuan had witnessed the power of the Sky Fiend Demon Lord. Although this person was not a Nascent Soul cultivator, his techniques were quite weird, and his mind was calm. But the difficulty of dealing with him, when compared to the Nascent Soul Stage old monsters, there wasn’t too much of a difference.

Therefore, in Lin Xuan’s view, both sides would lose in the end, and the chances of the fish breaking out of the net was really not small.

However, the plan was now disrupted.

The several Core Formation Stage cultivators were led to the lair of the Sword Torn Tiger, and even if they were able to get out, he was afraid they wouldn’t be able to find him anymore.

Although he was lucky and had met the Sky Fiend Demon Lord by chance. He also had started to build his foundation in the Foundation Establishment Stage. He wanted to snatch the Heavenly Dust Pill from the hands of the Sky Fiend Demon Lord…Lin Xuan shook his head. He was not arrogant to such a degree, and he did not want his path of cultivation to end here.

However, he was is unwilling to leave, and the heaven-defying effects of the Heavenly Dust Pill were really tempting.

After weighing the pros and cons, Lin Xuan decided not to leave, nor make a move, but to stay here and observe the situation.

He carefully restrained his Spiritual Qi, and he didn’t dare even let his Spiritual Sense out. Fortunately, the two sides were not far apart, and he could see the other party with just his eyes.

The Sky Fiend Demon Lord flew to the front of a cliff, silently, then stretched out his hand, a black mist lingered on it, and pressed onto the cliff wall.

He chanted a few incantations, and a cyan light flashed across his face, he then shouted, “Open!”

An unbelievable thing happened, the cliff wall was blurred for a while, and it then rippled like waves of water. Following that, the mountain disappeared and was replaced with a beautiful pavilion.

“An illusion!”

Lin Xuan was shocked. Since the start of his Immortal Cultivation, he has seen many illusions of various types, but such a brilliant one was the first experience, and he was a little more afraid of the Sky Fiend Demon Lord’s Spiritual Powers.

Is this the Sky Fiend Demon Lord’s Secret Cave Mansion?

The body of the Demon Lord turned into a black light and flew in without hesitation.

Should I follow?

Lin Xuan just thought of this idea, but then he quickly rejected it. It was too dangerous. With the Hidden Spirit Pill and the Nine Heavens Profound Art’s Qi Concealing Technique, if he hid here and stayed still, he wouldn’t have to worry about being discovered. But once he used Spiritual Qi, he’d be exposed in all likelihood.

Knowing this, Lin Xuan chose to wait and see if it would become more secure.

As he was thinking, the pavilion had disappeared.

Lin Xuan closed his eyes and began to rest while releasing a ray of Spiritual Sense, lest the Demon Lord quietly left, while he remained ignorant.

However, several hours passed in the blink of an eye, but the Demon Lord never came out.

Lin Xuan couldn’t help but frown and thought to himself. Although it was hidden, it was not a place where one could hide safely. Is the Sky Fiend Demon Lord planning to stay inside?

No, the two sects will find it sooner or later, and the Sky Fiend Demon Lord should know this.

But why is he still hiding peacefully? Does he have something to rely on? Or is it a last resort?

Just when Lin Xuan was thinking about it, he suddenly stiffened as he felt something behind him, but he didn’t even dare turn his head, like a frog being stared at by a snake.

A glimmer of light fell, and as the light dissipated, a young man in a green robe walked out without a hurry.

About twenty years old, his appearance was ordinary, he looked unremarkable, and his cultivation base seemed to only be in the Foundation Establishment Stage, but Lin Xuan’s breathing was almost stagnant.

An indescribable feeling, this young man’s Spiritual Power was obviously not very high, but he gave him a very dangerous feeling.

It felt as if there was an invisible pressure on him, which made people feel frightened and can only be looked up to.

This feeling, even Ouyang Qin, the Taibai Sword Immortal, a Core Formation Late-stage, and the leader of his generation, the Sky Fiend Demon Lord, he never felt like this from them, who is this young man?
