CHAPTER 712: 588 EMEI SECT PEOPLE ARE REALLY GOOD

Shi Feiyang and Dongxuan Immortal jointly cast spells to support "Heng Mountain".

Dongxuan Immortal used less than half of her mana, her expression calm and composed.

Shi Feiyang used only a tenth of his mana, pretending to exert all his effort; he even released his Flying Swords, along with the Taiqing Immortal Technique beneath "Heng Mountain", striving to not let it fall.

Others were not as cunning as him, knowing that Dongxuan Immortal’s mana was boundless. She alone could manage a back-and-forth battle with Shi Pi the Elder and easily support a mountain like "Heng Mountain" by herself.

Thus, they did not shamelessly crowd over, but instead each went to hold up other volcanoes. Thankfully, the guests invited by Yu Wa were no weaklings, and they managed to securely hold up five volcanoes.

Shi Pi the Elder, knowing that Yu Wa’s side was teeming with powerful allies, launched an attack from the White Jade Dust Brush, releasing Blood Flame Golden Sabers and various flying arrows and needles head-on.

The five volcanoes hung above everyone’s heads, arranged in an array. Although it couldn’t fall and crush everyone below, it did restrain and trap them within the formation.

After these measures, the Old Demon deployed his final move—his twelve Divine Demons, nurtured for a thousand years.

These twelve Divine Demons, attracted and complemented by his Lifebound Divine Demon through the Yin Yang principle, had broken through limitations alongside his studies in Buddhist Law, raising to the level of Asura.

As the old man’s thoughts moved, twelve Demons appeared around his Blood Lotus, forming a circle around him, looking like muscular men with their skin peeled off, showing white bones on foreheads and cheekbones, yet still with long hair, and their bodies bloody.

Shi Pi the Elder commanded, "With such delicacies before us, why not dive in and feast?"

The twelve Demons howled together, each transforming into a stream of blood energy, springing from the Blood Lotus and pouncing on Yu Wa and the others.

These Demons burst forth from the Infinite Blood Flame Golden Saber. Yu Wa, an expert in both skills and spells, sensed it beforehand, cried out in alarm, and hurriedly splashed out Star Liquid from her Jade Bowl; she opened the gourd at her waist, releasing all the accumulated Taibai Essence Qi from over a thousand years, which combined with the Star Liquid, formed multitudes of white Light Energy, shielding all her disciples completely.

She ensnared four Divine Demons with her Ruyi Golden Hook, grinding them into dust. However, although the Demons were shattered, they transformed into pathways of Shura Demon Light, continuously colliding around her.

Yu Wa protected her disciples thoroughly, but she neglected the guests who had come to help.

After all, she knew these people were either like Dongxuan Immortal, offering little effort, or were too terrified to incur the wrath of Shi Pi the Elder.

Resigning to ignore them, she let the Divine Demons surge forward. If they did not exert all their power for a desperate strike, they would perish in the jaws of the Divine Demons!

Yu Wa and her disciples blocked eight Divine Demons, a single one flying towards Shi Feiyang from the south.

Seeing this Demon, even Dongxuan Immortal’s expression became solemn.

The old woman noticed Shi Feiyang was not using his full strength, so she merely used the Single-Dragon Staff to create a circle of dark light to protect herself. When the Demon pounced towards Dongxuan Immortal and was repelled several times by the dark light, it turned towards Shi Feiyang.

If it had been the real Yue Yun here, he would definitely have been torn to pieces and devoured by the Divine Demon in an instant!

Ordinary Flying Swords and Magical Treasures were no match for this Demon.

If it were Taiqing Divine Light, it might have been possible, but Yue Yun could not possibly possess such profound mana. If his master Yue Yun were here, that would be a different story.

Luckily, Shi Feiyang had once imitated the Lianshan Four Treasures and created four sets of spells, later taught to Yue Yun, and used the Mystical Technique of All Phenomena, releasing a vast number of Five-Colored Light Rings.

Each of the Lianshan Four Treasures was tailored for Demon-suppressing and Demon Refining, the Xuan Guang Ruler was as such, and the spells created by Shi Feiyang also specifically countered Demons.

With both hands forming gestures, he released copious amounts of Five-Colored Light Rings, dazzling and spinning rapidly in the air, expanding as large as wheels and shrinking as small as cup mouths. Bubbles wildly burst forth, coupled with the Taiqing Divine Light, striking the Demon whose flesh, devoid of skin, seemed to be scorched by billions of heated branding irons, toasting and emitting smoke, causing it to wail in agony.

Dongxuan Immortal, watching by the side, her eyes lit up, silently praised the profound depth of the Emei Sect and Master Changmei’s disciple whose mana might not be supremely powerful but whose spell casting was indeed beautiful, managing to repel such a formidable Divine Demon. She had thought it would surely be swallowed whole by the Divine Demon.

The speed of the Divine Demon’s Flying Escape was extremely fast, appearing now in the east, now in the west, suddenly in front, suddenly below, its movements unpredictable.

Shi Feiyang enveloped his entire body in Taiqing Divine Light, endless streams of multicolored light rings emerging ceaselessly between his hands, flying chaotically around, shielding him from head to toe.

The Demon continued to crash into it, retreating with a wail back the next second. These multicolored light rings might not cause substantial damage to it, but they were indeed too painful, and the Demon couldn’t bear it!

While they managed to block the Demon here, the other guests were faring worse. Board members favored by Yu Wa, though strong in mana, had almost no power to retaliate against the impact of the Divine Demons, and even if they could withstand it momentarily, the Demons still found flaws and carried out their attacks.

The twelve Divine Demons cultivated by Shi Pi the Elder were unlike ordinary demonic creatures; Shi Feiyang’s Nine Child Mother Sky Demon employed crafty and spell-charming attacks on enemies.

His twelve Divine Demons were originally mighty Divine Demons; they wielded the power to move mountains and split the earth in swings of their Demon Claws.

They extended their demon claws, forcefully grasping the flying swords of their targets, snatching them, and sending them directly into their mouths to be chaotically chewed with their fang-filled maws!

No matter the type of Flying Sword Magical Treasure, all were chewed into bits!

The magical treasures wielded by the crowd were also formidable, some even specially designed to suppress demons, but as soon as they were released, the demons snatched them and ground them to pieces.

After devouring the Flying Sword Magical Treasures, they began to eat people.

These demons would directly stretch out their claws, and from hundreds of feet away, they could grab a person, who if not struggling much, would have their head thrown into the gaping maw and eaten in one bite.

If someone struggled fiercely, they would pull off the person’s limbs one by one, as though tearing apart a thoroughly cooked smoked chicken, and then they would eat the person piece by piece.

Eventually, Shi Feiyang couldn’t bear to watch anymore. He saw that those acquainted with Yu Wa were eaten first by the Divine Demons, followed by those who either passed by or for various reasons were left on the island, unfortunately numbering six in total.

He said to Dongxuan Immortal, "Leave Heng Mountain to granny. I’m going to help them!"

Without waiting for Dongxuan Immortal’s approval, he withdrew the Taiqing Immortal Light that was holding up "Heng Mountain" and used Taiqing Immortal Escape to fly directly to the east, then attacked the Divine Demons with Taiqing Divine Light and the Mystical Technique of All Phenomena.

A demon had just grabbed a handsome young Sword Immortal in blue clothes with its claw and was about to snatch him away to devour him when suddenly, numerous five-colored light rings flew horizontally, striking continually at its demonic arm. In an instant, it was as if tens of thousands of red-hot iron rings were smashing against flesh and bone stripped of skin, not only causing unbearable pain but also grinding the flesh and bones completely apart in a very short time.

The demonic arm was severed into two pieces. The young Sword Immortal also possessed great mana, and he freed himself from the claw.

His sword was quite uncommon; it was made up of eighty-one Divine Wood Swords. Most in the world who forge swords use the Five Elements’ metals rather than wood.

He arranged the Immortal Swords in an array around him for protection. Although the demonic claw was severed from the body, it was still relentless, spreading wide open with each finger stretching over a yard in length, and the fingertips bursting with Asura Demon Light while the palm emitted Shura Blood Flame, swirling around the young man trying to recapture him.

Shi Feiyang pointed with his hand and released hundreds of Golden Light Thunders.

The Daoist Qiantian Taiyin Divine Thunder was indeed the nemesis of all evil demons. The roaring thunder continuously exploded, striking right at the demonic claw and instantly turning it into dust, leaving a cloud of blood mist.

As the demonic claw tried to revive within the blood mist, Shi Feiyang released more Taiqing Divine Light to cover the blood mist, sending a plethora of five-colored light rings shooting crazily, completely annihilating the blood mist as well.

Seeing his heroic deeds, everyone was both shocked and delighted, secretly acclaiming, "Truly befitting a Sword Immortal of the Emei Sect, even a younger disciple possesses such high technique divine power!"

The young man who used the Divine Wood Swords was indeed from South Sea Copper Palm Island, and he spoke to Shi Feiyang with great apprehension, "Liu He, a disciple under the seat of Saint Tian Chi from Copper Palm Island, thanks you for saving my life! If I survive today, I will surely repay this favor in the future!"

He was also unlucky, having been sent by his master to the East Sea to gather herbs. Having previously met Chu Ling by chance, he thought she, being a local here, would know the locations of the herbs, which could have doubled his efficiency.

However, upon arrival, he found himself trapped. Chu Ling generously fetched her own collection of ready-made elixirs, eliminating the need for gathering herbs and even sparing Tian Chi the effort of alchemy.

Liu He was naturally very grateful, but Chu Ling asked him to stay a few more days on the island.

Tian Chi was very strict with his disciples, and even a minor offense would result in being stripped to the waist, hung up, and lashed with hundreds of Flood Dragon Whips until one was bloody and barely alive.

Liu He didn’t dare oppose her and just wanted to hurry back, but Chu Ling forcefully insisted he stay, even saying she’d have a little trouble in the future and asking for Liu He’s help.

Calculating the situation, if he had to search for and gather herbs himself, it wouldn’t take less than ten days or half a month; now that he was given ready-made elixirs and owed such a big favor additionally being asked for help, it was clear he couldn’t leave, so he stayed to repay the kindness.

Little did he imagine that the small favor Chu Ling mentioned was facing annihilation by Shi Pi the Elder!

As the chief disciple of Master Tian Chi, Liu He knew well of the Cosmic Six Strange, and was particularly aware of Shi Pi the Elder. Not even his master Tian Chi, who had achieved an Undying Body, would dare to provoke Shi Pi the Elder.

An Undying Body was not an Indestructible Body—provoking Shi Pi the Elder could still turn one into a dead man!

At that moment, his heart chilled, knowing that even if he survived and returned to the South Sea, he would still face his master’s blame and punishment. Because he sought convenience, he had caused such a great disaster that it was inevitable that several Flood Dragon Whips would be broken on his body! Having been lashed with whips from childhood, the very thought of the pain from the whips refined by his master through spellcasting made him shiver all over.

"Let’s hurry and leave!" Liu He proposed to the other five.

The five were also terrified, having no real ties with Yu Wa: "Let’s go, let’s go now!"

As the six of them joined their sword light to break out, seeing Shi Feiyang standing still, Liu He asked, "Aren’t you coming with us, Fellow Daoist?"

Shi Feiyang smiled and released a large amount of colorful light rings and Golden Light Thunders, single-handedly holding off three charging Divine Demons: "You go first, I’ll cover your retreat!"

The six were moved to tears, "The Emei Sect truly lives up to its reputation as a righteous sect!"

They loudly cautioned "Fellow Daoist" to be careful, then turned and flew together towards the southeast.
