"Elder Bai, it’s your turn now!"

After transmitting the message, the aura around Xia Liu suddenly surged.

This made everyone present become alert.

"Summon thunder!"

Xia Liu roared to the sky, and immediately thick dark clouds gathered within a hundred miles.

Thunder rumbled within the clouds.

The power of the Immortal-Destroying Thunder and the momentum of the Taiqing Sword swept across the surroundings.

This left everyone speechless.

"That’s a spiritual artifact! And it’s of quite a high tier!"

"Tsk tsk! I didn’t expect him to have another spiritual artifact!"

"Interesting! Truly interesting!"

Sha Tongtian was calculating in secret.

Today, he was determined to deal with Xia Liu!

"This is not a merely Foundation Establishment Cultivator, but clearly an old monster hiding in the Nascent Soul Stage!"

Mo Shan was frightened.

He remembered that he had just spoken against Xia Liu.

Once Xia Liu had free time, Mo Shan would surely die!

It is often said that disaster comes from careless words, and today Mo Shan understood.

He could only pray that Sha Tongtian and the others would destroy Xia Liu’s foundation.

Or kill him!

Otherwise, should a Nascent Soul Stage expert become enraged, blood would flow across the land for thousands of miles.

Such power is not something Mo Shan or the Traceless Sect can withstand.

BOOM!!!

A deafening sound echoed as multiple bolts of thunder struck down, all hitting Xia Liu.

No,

it struck the longsword in Xia Liu’s hand!

"Very well! Let me see your true strength!"

Sha Tongtian stepped forward, and the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Mid-Stage roared forth.

Immediately, all cultivators present below the Nascent Soul Realm could barely breathe.

This was truly a battle of immortals, and Mo Shan, who was at the Golden Pill Late Stage, was constantly suppressed by those two overwhelming pressures.

His body trembled, and his heart and soul felt uneasy.

But no matter how hard he tried, he could not move his body.

Being suppressed to such a degree, he could only pray that the ensuing impact would not spread to him.

However, this thought was very naive.

The only thing he could do was to exert his energy body to the extreme in hopes of surviving this critical moment.

"A Thousand Threads and Myriad Strands!"

Xia Liu’s movements were extremely swift, as he swung the Taiqing Sword with a mighty force.

Thousands upon thousands of thunderbolt sword energy swept out.

The void twisted instantly, almost shattering!

The world held its breath, awaiting the instant when the strong clashed.

"Subduing Heaven Bowl, go!"

Facing the sword energy of a thousand threads, Sha Tongtian flipped his hand to retrieve a spiritual artifact, maximized its power, and threw it towards the oncoming sword energy.

"Interesting! Daoist Fellow Sha even used the Subduing Heaven Bowl!"

"The Subduing Heaven Bowl is a top-tier spiritual artifact in the Baichuan Realm! Its power is great, and it seems that beast really earned Daoist Fellow Sha’s attention!"

He Guicai carefully observed the thunderbolt sword energy for a long time and said, "With the momentum of a high-grade spirit artifact, the power of top-tier divine skills, and with his own mysterious state of mind, if Daoist Fellow Sha didn’t use the Subduing Heaven Bowl, he might not be able to resist."

"I don’t agree with that Daoist Fellow He, with Daoist Fellow Sha’s Nascent Soul Mid-Stage energy body, even without using the Subduing Heaven Bowl, he could withstand that sword energy."

"Haha, Daoist Fellow Ma, are you joking? In such a moment, if he damages his energy body, how will he then kill that beast?"

Ma Gao laughed, understanding that when divine skills were shattered by Xia Liu’s sword energy. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

He realized this guy couldn’t be underestimated.

If Sha Tongtian didn’t use the spiritual artifact, he wouldn’t be seriously injured, but he would definitely be delayed for some time.

He now had a keen desire for the Extreme Cold Flame and the spiritual artifact in Xia Liu’s hands.

He naturally wanted a swift battle, then to swiftly snatch the Extreme Cold Flame and spiritual artifact!

Fang Zhi was left speechless.

As a Nascent Soul Stage expert, how could he not understand Sha Tongtian’s intent?

But this old guy, as a top cultivator in the Baichuan Realm.

He had already made a move, and if he struck again to kill Xia Liu or seize the spiritual artifact from his hands.

One couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t become angry.

If it was just one person, taking it would be no problem.

But behind Ma Gao and others was a big family.

While he could run, how could his clansmen escape the wrath of a Nascent Soul Stage’s anger?

Clang clang clang!

When the Subduing Heaven Bowl swelled several times and spun in the void.

A strong suction force emanated from the bowl.

The thunderbolt sword energy was forcibly pulled into the bowl, and a series of metal clashing sounds rang out.

A ferocious force swept out, and everyone like Mo Shan spat out essence blood, their spirits languishing on the spot.

Too powerful!

When immortals fight, mortals suffer.

People like Mo Shan were mere mortals, caught in the crossfire for no reason.

Now even crying wouldn’t help them.

They could only endure silently, praying that no more mighty strength would come.

As the sound echoed and the sword energy in the void became scarce.

An unsettling feeling surged in Xia Liu’s heart.

"Daoist Fellow Xia, please seriously take back your sword energy!"

"Hmm?"

At the moment of Xia Liu’s confusion, the Subduing Heaven Bowl flipped.

Countless bolts of thunderbolt sword energy emerged, murderous from the bowl.

The power was even more fierce compared to before!

More powerful!

"What an artifact that can absorb another’s divine skills and unleash it with greater power!"

Bai Jue couldn’t help but admire, but spiritual artifacts have their limits.

If Xia Liu’s energy body reached Nascent Soul Mid-Stage, the same level as Sha Tongtian, his Subduing Heaven Bowl might become insignificant.

"Xia Liu! Don’t fight! Use this wave’s impact to perform instantaneous movement!"

Bai Jue calculated a lot.

Continuing to fight, opening his soul power fully, might lead to mutual destruction with Sha Tongtian.

But there were still five Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators alongside Sha Tongtian.

If his energy body was harmed even a bit, Xia Liu would have no escape.

Using this ensuing wave of strong sword energy was Xia Liu’s best chance to escape!

Xia Liu didn’t respond, and his Seal Decree fell.

At the instant the sword rain approached, his body vanished from the spot.

The powerful sword energy pierced through the peak behind him, extending several miles beyond.

"Damn!"

With his divine sense fully open, Sha Tongtian discovered Xia Liu had already appeared fifty miles away.

Then disappeared again.

He knew things were getting serious.

After retracting the Subduing Heaven Bowl, Sha Tongtian forced his divine sense to lock onto a trace of Xia Liu’s aura, then spat out a mouthful of essence blood.

The essence blood then transformed into a blood mist, enveloping him within.

When the blood mist dissipated, there was no sign of Sha Tongtian within a hundred miles.

"How mad Daoist Fellow Sha must be, to willingly deplete his foundation and perform the Blood Shield Technique to pursue him..."

Ma Gao couldn’t help but admire.

The higher the rank one is, the more powerful the Blood Shield Technique becomes.

For a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, a single instantaneous movement can cover a hundred miles.

But the cost is greater than for cultivators of other ranks.

For Sha Tongtian to recover his foundation and energy body, without the help of precious Heaven and Earth Spirit Medicine, it would take at least decades of cultivation.

Otherwise, he cannot recover.

This shows how desperate Sha Tongtian had become.

"What should we do now?"

Ma Gao scanned everyone, wanting to hear their opinions.

"Daoist Fellow Sha has already used the Blood Shield Technique, how can we chase him? It’s better to wait here for his good news."

The Blood Shield Technique allows an instantaneous movement of a hundred miles in this mid-section of the Extreme Cold Secret Realm.

Though the suppression of a Nascent Soul Stage’s divine sense is slightly reduced, it still can’t probe such vast distances.

The best solution, naturally, is to wait here...
