Translator: Cinder Translations

The flying sword slashed through the water curtain, causing a thousand layers of waves to rise.

As the sword qi moved, the water curtain was torn apart like silk in an instant.

The flying sword continued to penetrate, striking toward the two shark people.

Suddenly, the sea surface in front of the shark people surged violently.

A thick, serpentine tail burst out of the water, fiercely striking the flying sword above.

"Clang!"

A deafening sound, like the clash of metal, reverberated throughout the entire sea area.

The flying sword was knocked away by the tail, its light dimming slightly.

Daoist Lan Yin's expression darkened, and her sharp gaze locked onto the thick serpentine tail. Coldly, she spoke:

"Xuan Jiao, so it's you. How dare you venture into the territory of our Liangyi Sect? Today, I'll taste the flavor of dragon liver."

As she spoke, Daoist Lan Yin once again activated the sword technique.

The flying sword's body began to violently tremble, as if trying to break free from some kind of restraint.

With Daoist Lan Yin's spiritual energy pouring in, the flying sword gradually emitted a brilliant light, its body expanding. The originally three zhi-long flying sword quickly grew to a hundred zhang in size.

The giant sword, like a sword capable of cutting through the heavens, suddenly slashed toward the sea below.

A giant creature suddenly surged from the ocean. freёnovelkiss.com

It was a gigantic aquatic dragon, its body dozens of zhang long, with scales as black as night, shimmering with a cold, starry gleam, as if forged from meteoric iron.

Its head was huge and fierce, with a pair of golden vertical pupils.

The Xuan Jiao, with late-stage fourth-tier strength, swiped its claws, charging at the giant sword with lightning speed.

When the claws and the giant sword collided, a violent energy explosion spread in all directions.

The sea water was instantly flipped, creating huge waves.

The powerful energy impact forced the two shark people to retreat, causing their song to abruptly cease.

On the human side, the Qi Refining and Foundation-building cultivators began to retreat from the city walls, pulling back to the rear.

The fourth-tier powerhouses had already appeared, and these lower-tier cultivators had no significant role to play anymore.

As long as they held the position beneath the high walls, preventing any escaping demon beasts from infiltrating the Four Symbols City behind them, their job would be done.

In fact, even Song Wen and the other Golden Core cultivators retreated a mile.

At this point, only Daoist Lan Yin stood on top of the high wall.

The giant sword was slapped away by the Xuan Jiao's claws, but it still left a white mark on the beast's scaled tail.

The Xuan Jiao seemed to feel some pain, its vertical pupils flashing with anger.

Its enormous body suddenly soared into the air, charging toward the high wall ten miles away.

Daoist Lan Yin, with only mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivation, was naturally no match for the Xuan Jiao's strength.

However, she showed no fear.

She urged the giant sword again, slashing from the side toward the Xuan Jiao's tail.

The Xuan Jiao did not even look back, its tail suddenly swinging.

With a "bang," the giant sword was sent flying.

However, the Xuan Jiao also paid a price—several of its scales were sliced open by the giant sword, and crimson blood seeped from the wounds.

"Roar!"

The Xuan Jiao let out a furious roar.

Its speed increased several times, resembling a lightning bolt as it charged toward Daoist Lan Yin.

The Xuan Jiao's physical strength was overwhelming. Once it closed in on her, Daoist Lan Yin, being a sword cultivator, would be no match for the Xuan Jiao, even if there were ten of her.

As the Xuan Jiao drew nearer, Daoist Lan Yin didn't show fear but instead smiled coldly.

She quickly formed hand seals, and beneath the high wall, the tumultuous sea water surged. Nine dazzling sword lights suddenly rose, shooting straight into the sky.

In mid-air, nine flying swords abruptly appeared, their sword qi scattering in all directions, rapidly intertwining into an impenetrable sword net, completely surrounding the Xuan Jiao.

At some point, Daoist Lan Yin had set up a sword formation, waiting for the Xuan Jiao to fall into her trap.

Unaware, the Xuan Jiao's massive body collided with the sword formation's barrier.

Upon impact, an earth-shattering roar erupted, and the entire sea seemed to tremble.

The Xuan Jiao's tough scales collided with the sharp sword qi in the formation, creating flashes of dazzling fire.

Roaring in fury, the Xuan Jiao opened its blood-red mouth and fiercely exhaled, shooting a jet of black water.

Wherever the black water passed, the air immediately froze into ice crystals. Even the sharp sword qi couldn't escape, becoming coated in a layer of thick ice before falling into the sea below.

The black water was unstoppable, crashing into the sword formation's barrier.

Where it struck, a thick layer of ice quickly formed.

The entire barrier trembled violently, emitting a deep rumble, and the sword formation's operation became momentarily sluggish.

Seeing this, Daoist Lan Yin's expression grew solemn.

The black water was a spiritual water the Xuan Jiao had refined, known as Ghost Spring True Water.

Daoist Lan Yin continued to form hand seals, and the ice crystals on the sword formation began to shed, gradually restoring the formation's power.

Seeing the Xuan Jiao trapped within the sword formation and unable to break free, a fiery red figure suddenly shot across the sky from the distant horizon, swiftly approaching.

It was the Burning Heaven Eagle.

"Ji Yin, help me block the Burning Heaven Eagle. Don't let it interfere with my control of the sword formation!" Daoist Lan Yin shouted loudly.

Without hesitation, Song Wen raised his hand and swung it, sending out the Blood Sea Seal.

The Blood Sea Seal formed into a small mountain tens of zhang tall, crashing into the Burning Heaven Eagle high in the sky.

The Burning Heaven Eagle flapped its wings, making a swift arc to avoid the Blood Mountain.

Suddenly, several tentacles shot out from the Blood Mountain, wildly swinging in the air, wrapping around the Burning Heaven Eagle.

Flames erupted from the Burning Heaven Eagle's body, resembling the blazing sun.

The tentacles that came into contact with the flames were instantly burned, twisting and distorting, making sizzling sounds before turning into wisps of blood energy that floated in the air.

The blood energy was absorbed by the Blood Mountain, solidifying into new tentacles that once again wrapped around the Burning Heaven Eagle.

The Burning Heaven Eagle's left eye flashed with a sharp light.

That damned human again!

Its beak opened, and a pillar of fire shot out.

The fire pillar was surrounded by faint purple flames.

The Burning Heaven Eagle had activated its accompanying spirit fire.

It remembered the battle in the sky, where it underestimated this human Golden Core cultivator, and in its carelessness, the human had ambushed it, resulting in the loss of its right eye.

Thus, when it attacked this time, it used all its strength.

Just as the fire pillar was about to strike the Blood Mountain, the Blood Mountain suddenly split open, revealing a large hole. The fire pillar passed through the hole and soared into the sky.

The Burning Heaven Eagle's expression was slightly surprised. The form of this magic treasure was ever-changing, making it somewhat tricky to deal with. Though, it was only somewhat troublesome.

It quickly swung its head, and the fire pillar swept out, targeting the Blood Mountain.

Song Wen seemed to realize he couldn't resist the impact of the accompanying spirit fire. The Blood Mountain suddenly shattered into blood mist, allowing the fire pillar to pass through it unimpeded.

The Burning Heaven Eagle's eyes showed a trace of arrogance. This human was just a Golden Core cultivator after all; how could he possibly contend with its fourth-tier demonic strength?

As long as it went all out, the only option for the human was to retreat.
