Seeing Jiang Shu suddenly appear here with an extremely domineering stance, dispersing the intense Evil Qi surrounding the Demon Sect's Blood Robe Daoist Monarch, then forcefully pulling him back from a distance, the three surviving True Inheritors and Elders of the Hidden Sword Sect were utterly stunned on the spot.

This Blood Robe Daoist Monarch, although only wielding an ordinary Blood Refining Dao, is nonetheless at the Early Stage of the Vientiane Realm, an existence with a lofty status among the Eight Great Sects. To these True Inheritors and Elders, who have not yet broken through from the Nirvana Realm Peak, he is like an insurmountable towering peak.

But now, this once high and mighty Daoist Monarch is being handled like a dead dog by Jiang Shu, with almost no power to resist.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, the people of the Hidden Sword Sect could never believe that Jiang Shu, who was still at the Primordial Pill Realm before the battle began, could reach such monstrous strength in such a short time.

Silently swallowing a gulp, a white-haired Elder of the Hidden Sword Sect turned to look at Lu Chong, who remained behind Jiang Shu, unable to conceal the shock in his eyes.

They all know that Lu Chong's advancement to the Vientiane Realm was by comprehending three Great Daos.

Yet such a powerful individual still lags behind Jiang Shu.

Obviously, after advancing to the Vientiane Realm, Jiang Shu's strength will only be stronger!

All around, a dead silence reigned. Although no words were spoken, each person's heart had already arrived at an answer, and the gaze they directed toward Jiang Shu immediately underwent complex changes.

In their gaze exchange, they communicated mentally:

"The True Martial Sect indeed has deep foundations. Initially, we thought that this time, our Eight Great Sects would surely be defeated within these relics. But now, it seems that there might still be a chance to turn the tide. Daoist Monarch Taixuan, perhaps, is indeed part of the True Martial Sect's schemes! No wonder he was sent into these relics so early."

"The reputation of the True Martial Sect's First True Inheritor is indeed well-deserved. Previously, we even thought Lu Chong's following was because the True Martial Sect deliberately elevated Jiang Taixuan, but now it seems we all underestimated Jiang Taixuan's talent. How long has he been in the relics? Not only has he advanced to the Vientiane Realm, but his power is remarkably terrifyingly formidable. That Blood Robe old ghost, also at the Vientiane Realm Early Stage, can't even stir up a single wave under his hands."

"If using full strength, perhaps he may even surpass Daoist Monarch Qingtian Zong Yue. Yet it's unclear, compared to the Demon Sect's Qiu Taoguang, who is stronger."

Their gaze fell silently on Jiang Shu's silhouette suspended in the Void ahead, each calculating the power comparison, faintly reaching a conclusion in their hearts.

Even if Zong Yue were here today, although he could also take down the Blood Robe Daoist Monarch, he would never strike as casually as Jiang Shu.

By comparison, the power demonstrated by Jiang Shu is naturally more formidable.

Especially when they involuntarily associate with Qiu Taoguang, a renewed gleam showed on their previously dim faces.

If Jiang Shu, as the Daoist Monarch Taixuan, can face off against Qiu Taoguang, not needing to defeat him, but just fighting to a standstill, it would be a tremendous support to the currently dispersed and retreating teams of the Eight Great Sects.

By then, reversing the declining trend of the Eight Great Sects and bringing the struggle with the Demon Sect and Demon Race back into a stalemate would undoubtedly pull both sides back to the same level, with the ultimate victor yet to be determined.

Understanding this point, hope surged in their previously despairing eyes, sweeping away the gloomy haze in their hearts.

As members of the Eight Great Sects governing the Cang Mang Domain, they had been relentlessly hunted by the Demon Sect and Demon Clan in recent days, left in dire straits, truly oppressed to the extreme.

In their respective Sects before, with their status and position, how could they ever tolerate such humiliation?

This is precisely why they couldn't help but harbor unvented anger, suppressed due to the perilous circumstances, and had to endure, bitterly awaiting an opportunity for reversal.

Now, with Jiang Shu as Daoist Monarch Taixuan having reached the Vientiane Realm, he is undoubtedly the variable they had hoped for!

At this moment, Jiang Shu did not respond to their discussions, only coldly staring at the Blood Robe Daoist Monarch being continually drawn back by the mighty Primordial Power, a sparkle of light ceaselessly surging in his eye depths.

Within the Primordial Power glow, the Blood Robe Daoist Monarch gritted his teeth, his eyes bulging wrathfully, forehead veins bulging violently. Even when mobilizing both his internal Primordial Power and Power of Great Dao entirely, a stabbing pain emanated from various meridians throughout his body due to the rapid operation of power, yet he still couldn't escape.

Seeing Jiang Shu's figure already almost within reach, a hint of madness instantly emerged in the panicked eyes of the Blood Robe Daoist Monarch.

After smoothly entering the Vientiane Realm, he had surged with pride within these Ancient Demon Sect Relics. Just moments ago, he had blasted a True Inheritor of the Hidden Sword Sect to death, right under the latter's nose.

The deep sea of blood debts had been formed.

Now, if he fell into Jiang Shu's hands, the miserable fate awaiting him was more than the Blood Robe Daoist Monarch dared to imagine.

"Jiang Taixuan, you've gone too far! I'll fight you to the death!"

A fierce, wrathful roar erupted, the Blood Robe Daoist Monarch's face contorted as he gritted his teeth harshly, lifting his hand to strike heavily at key points across his body, immediately causing his entire aura to violently erupt.

Much to his surprise, Jiang Shu's face showed no change when he noticed this movement, and even his gaze remained so indifferent, as if he hadn't placed him in his eyes at all.

"Old ghost, how do you compare to that Heavenly Phoenix of the Demon Race?"

The calm voice reached his ears, causing the Blood Robe Daoist Monarch's eyes to bulge in shock, his face changing wildly as he prepared to burn his Origin Blood for a desperate battle!
