Although the Blood Robe Sect's Xuan Dan Stage Disciples weren't particularly powerful, they made up for it in numbers. With over two hundred of them continually launching long-range sword light attacks from the periphery, the pressure on Luo Li and Jun Moxiao intensified. The slight advantage Luo Li had gained from her recent breakthrough was now completely gone. The two could only rely on the unpredictable Nine Changes of the God Dragon to maneuver and defend themselves.
Having grown up and cultivated together, Luo Li and Jun Moxiao's combat coordination was exceptionally in sync. While evading attacks, they would, as if by unspoken agreement, seize opportunities to launch sneak attacks on the Xuan Dan Stage Disciples at the outer rim.
Initially, they succeeded, eliminating dozens of Xuan Dan Stage Disciples.
However, the Blood Robe Sect quickly adjusted its strategy. They organized their Origin Sea Realm disciples into several Sword Arrays, whose members coordinated with extreme skill, successfully intercepting all of Luo Li and Jun Moxiao's attacks.
「In the private room of the tavern.」
Ye Yun picked up a piece of braised pork, placed it in his mouth, and chewed slowly, a faint smile playing on his lips as he watched the battle unfold.
Suppressing their cultivation realms, treasures, and Robes has indeed greatly aided their Cultivation. Luo Li was the first to break through. And looking at Jun Moxiao, he seems to be on the verge of his breakthrough as well. After all, they both just consumed a Demigod Dragon Tiger Pill. This pill is a supreme treasure for Cultivation. No other pill of this level has ever appeared on the Cangnan Continent. Ordinary Dragon Tiger Pills can only be found in Sects at or above the Heaven Level.
On the Cangnan Continent, Sect forces were divided into five levels: Regular, Major Sects, Super Sages, Heaven Level, and Eternal Level.
The so-called top ten forces in the Ancient Moon Dynasty are merely Regular Sects. None of them can even be considered Major Sects. On the Cangnan Continent, there were only three Eternal Sects, the highest level, even one hundred thousand years ago. This just shows how powerful Eternal Sects are; they're practically behemoths on the Cangnan Continent. Even a random Disciple from one could cause world-ending destruction. However, Eternal Level Sects should now be located at the center of the Cangnan Continent, where Spiritual Energy is most abundant. As for the distance from the Ancient Moon Dynasty... who knows how many hundreds of millions of miles that is!
In the eyes of Ye Yun, who had once been the Sect Master of an Eternal Level Sect, the so-called top ten forces of the Ancient Moon Dynasty were nothing more than ants. Besides, Ye Yun had now reached the True God Realm. All living beings were like ants in his eyes. He felt no pity.
Observing the long river of time, one would realize that life is just an endless cycle of growth, one generation after another. Even if one generation is wiped out, another will soon sprout.
Therefore, Ye Yun, the invincible True God, felt no emotional ripples when killing. It was like crushing a few ants. The life level of a True God was beyond the comprehension of ordinary Cultivators.
「The Plaza.」
The battle here was now extremely perilous. Jun Moxiao and Luo Li, relying on their powerful physiques, were tenaciously holding on.
Suddenly, with a loud BANG, Jun Moxiao's body trembled slightly, and he abruptly fell from mid-air. At this very moment, he had successfully broken through from the fourth layer of the Origin Sea Realm to the fifth!
Seeing this, Luo Li quickly rushed over, unleashing a wave of sword light to block an incoming volley of attacks for Jun Moxiao.
"Haha, Little Junior Brother, congratulations! You've broken through too!"
"Yes, Senior Sister!"
After his breakthrough, Jun Moxiao's Super Divine Dragon Breath grew even stronger. He swung his Sword, launching counterattacks in all directions. Although he had only advanced one small layer, it shouldn't be forgotten that his original cultivation base had reached the Shaping God Realm. Now, having made a breakthrough while his cultivation base was suppressed, the increase in combat power far exceeded that of a conventional breakthrough.
At this point, Jun Moxiao immediately switched from a defensive to an offensive stance, no longer looking so battered.
Seeing this, Bai Yufeng couldn't help but stomp his feet repeatedly in frustration. Who on earth are this young man and woman? How can they achieve breakthroughs consecutively in battle?
"Elder Liu, why haven't you made a move yet?" Bai Yufeng glowered at Elder Liu beside him, who was drenched in a cold sweat and trembling, then gave him an irate shove. What time is it for him to be daydreaming?!
"Oh..." Elder Liu gasped softly, as if waking from a dream.
He was drenched in sweat, constantly wiping it away as he stared at the terrifying Black Horse in the distance, his body still trembling uncontrollably.
"Elder Liu, what in the world is wrong with you?" Bai Yufeng's face darkened as he questioned him with extreme dissatisfaction.
Elder Liu was at a loss for words. He wanted to join the fight, but he was terrified of that monstrous Black Horse. If he didn't participate, he would likely face the Sect's punishment. It was death either way.
Gritting his teeth, Elder Liu drew his Sword and charged towards Luo Li.
CLOP!
With the crisp sound of a single horse's hoof, Elder Liu, then mid-air, suddenly heard a thunderous roar that made his head BUZZ. He instantly lost consciousness and plummeted to the ground.
"Damn it! That Elder Liu is faking his death!" Bai Yufeng seethed, grinding his teeth. Emboldened by a surge of malice, he snatched up a Sword and viciously stabbed at the fallen Elder Liu. The Sword pierced his chest, rupturing his heart, and the unconscious Elder Liu died on the spot.
"Brother Bai, why did you kill Elder Liu?" an injured Disciple beside him asked, his voice trembling.
"He retreated in the face of battle! What use is such an Elder? I am cleansing the Sect's ranks!" Having killed someone, Bai Yufeng's audacity seemed to swell, and he spoke with vicious ferocity.
The other Disciples fell silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to even breathe loudly. However, they, too, had indeed noticed. This Elder Liu of the Blood Robe Sect Sub-branch, a Shaping God Realm cultivator, was indeed shirking his duties, leading to massive casualties for the Blood Robe Sect Sub-branch. Therefore, no one internally objected when Brother Bai suddenly struck down Elder Liu.
"Junior Brothers!" Bai Yufeng raised his Sword with one hand and roared furiously. "We must kill these two, even if it costs us our lives!"
Today... this battle can no longer end peacefully. If we don't kill these two, all of us will die!
Hearing Bai Yufeng's words, the Blood Robe Sect Disciples' spirits lifted, and they desperately besieged Luo Li and Jun Moxiao with frenzied attacks.
The pair, however, did not falter. They remained calm and composed, evading attacks while counter-attacking, not falling significantly behind.
「Two hours later.」
Most of the Blood Robe Sect Disciples were pale and covered in cold sweat; both their stamina and Mana were severely depleted. But Luo Li and Jun Moxiao were still brimming with energy and vigor.
"Senior Sister, they're almost done for!" Jun Moxiao laughed heartily, his Swordsmanship becoming even sharper.
A wave of sword light cascaded down. Instantly, three Origin Sea Realm Blood Robe Sect Disciples were struck by the Sword; they screamed and retreated.
"Kill!" Luo Li also launched a ferocious counterattack.
In an instant, they routed the Blood Robe Sect Disciples, forcing them into a continuous retreat. Many suffered grievous wounds, blood gushing from their injuries.
At this point, looks of utter terror filled the eyes of the Blood Robe Sect Disciples. The battle had lasted for nearly four hours, yet this young man and woman showed no signs of fatigue whatsoever!
What the hell... Are they even human?!
