Chapter 419: A Chaotic Slaughter
Chapter 419: A Chaotic Slaughter
The elder in the soap-robed exploded, his body bursting apart with a powerful force that shattered Chu Ning's Five Elements Spirit Sword.
Taking advantage of the power of his self-destructing body, the soap-robed elder forcefully broke through the Five Elements Sword Array.
Blood-red light filled the sky, and an infant soul appeared, its face deathly pale.
It was clear that the soap-robed elder's soul had also been affected by the previous injuries.
However, as soon as the soul appeared, it quickly opened its mouth and sucked in.
Then, the blood light that had come from its body suddenly reversed direction and shot back.
In an instant, it wrapped the soul in a bloody cocoon.
At the same time, a red and blue ice flower appeared in the sky—it was the Primordial Ice Flame that Chu Ning had unleashed.
As the blood cocoon formed, the soap-robed elder was about to flee. But suddenly, he felt a powerful icy intent from within the cocoon.
"Damn, you want to destroy even my soul!" the soap-robed elder cried out.
The blood cocoon shimmered with blood-red light, somehow managing to withstand the Primordial Ice Flame for a moment.
Taking this opportunity, the soap-robed elder's soul drilled out from the bottom of the cocoon, and with a flicker, appeared more than thirty feet away.
Even as he fled, the soap-robed elder couldn't help but turn back to look at Chu Ning.
As he saw Chu Ning closing the distance between them and pointing at him, the soap-robed elder, who had experienced the power of Chu Ning's Void Finger before, immediately tried to shift away again.
But this time, he sensed the fluctuations of spatial force in front of him, and for a moment, he couldn't shift away in time.
"Spatial secret art!" the soap-robed elder exclaimed as he finally realized what was happening.
Only a spatial secret art could influence the spatial forces and affect his soul's ability to shift.
But a spatial secret art was something that only a late-stage Infant Soul cultivator could barely use!
And the one facing him was only at the early Infant Soul stage.
Why? How was this possible?
His head filled with questions, but at this moment, he would never get the answers.
Because at that moment, a powerful spatial force had already acted upon his soul, causing it to tremble violently and become insubstantial.
Before he could make another move, the Primordial Ice Flame had completely sealed the blood cocoon, descending upon it.
With a touch, even before it could turn into an ice sculpture, the already insubstantial soul scattered and dissipated.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist!" the red-browed elder cried out from a distance as he witnessed this scene.
His entire body trembled with rage.
As he saw Chu Ning flying towards the black-haired old woman trapped in flames, he couldn't help but roar.
"How dare you!"
However, the red-browed elder also knew that it was basically impossible to shake off Wu Changdong and save the black-haired old woman at this moment.
So, after his furious roar, he controlled his purple and gold circular pill cauldron and attacked Wu Changdong ferociously.
For a moment, the mighty force caused even Wu Changdong's expression to change slightly.
On the other side, the demon path cultivator at the mid-stage Infant Soul, who was facing Lu Yuezhang, had a cold and expressionless face, not saying a word.
However, his offensive was just as fierce as the red-browed elder's, showing no sign of weakness.
But at this moment, their attacks couldn't affect Chu Ning at all.
Chu Ning flew towards the black-haired old woman trapped in the blazing flames. With a hand seal, he pointed at the sea of fire.
The next moment, the flames exploded!
But at this moment, the black-haired old woman's body had disappeared without a trace, leaving behind not even ashes.
Only her soul remained, clutching a circular ring as she fled and disappeared with the Infant Soul shift art, escaping towards the red-browed elder's direction.
At this moment, Chu Ning didn't immediately stop the black-haired old woman.
Instead, he used the Void Escape art to follow her.
Just as the old woman was about to reach the red-browed elder, Chu Ning drove out his Five Elements Spirit Sword. Holding the giant sword, he slashed down!
The Five Elements Spirit Sword shimmered with five-colored radiance, and then all the light left the sword and transformed into a five-colored sword beam. Like a rift in the void, it appeared in front of the black-haired old woman in the blink of an eye.
"Ah!"
The black-haired old woman screamed, accelerating her escape. With a shift, she disappeared and reappeared behind the red-browed elder.
However, if he did that, the black-haired old woman's Nascent Soul, who had just taken cover behind him, would undoubtedly be shattered by the sword.
The red-browed elder's eyebrows twitched, but in the end, he didn't dodge.
He lifted his left hand and struck out with several palms in succession, sending out several dark red palm shadows tinged with black towards the five-colored sword radiance slashed by Chu Ning.
When the palm shadows collided with the sword radiance, colorful glows scattered in the air.
But the next moment, the red-browed elder's eyes narrowed in surprise.
After the colorful glows faded, a red and blue ice flower suddenly appeared in the sky, shooting towards him!
It turned out that Chu Ning had hidden the Primordial Ice Flame within his previous sword strike.
Under the cover of the five-colored sword light, the red-browed elder, who was distracted by dealing with two opponents, failed to detect it in time.
Seeing the intertwining red and blue Primordial Ice Flame at this moment, the red-browed elder's eyebrows twitched involuntarily.
"Retreat quickly!"
The red-browed elder cried out in alarm and immediately flew away.
Having just witnessed Chu Ning using the Primordial Ice Flame to directly annihilate the soap-robed elder, this red-browed Demon Cultivator dared not face the Primordial Ice Flame with his bare hands.
The black-haired old woman had just barely managed to take cover behind the red-browed elder, and she heaved a sigh of relief.
She hadn't thought about fleeing immediately because, in her opinion, hiding here was the safest option.
However, after just a short moment, she heard the red-browed elder's startled cry.
Startled, she prepared to flee again.
But this time, it was too late.
The Primordial Ice Flame shot past where the red-browed elder had been standing, striking directly onto the black-haired old woman's Nascent Soul.
"Fellow Daoist Jian, you..."
The black-haired old woman's Nascent Soul only had time to let out an incredulous scream before the Primordial Ice Flame turned her into an ice sculpture, and then into nothingness within the scarlet flame.
This scene caused the red-browed elder named Jian to almost split his eyes with rage.
Chu Ning had dared to annihilate a fellow cultivator's Nascent Soul right under his nose, which was undoubtedly a great humiliation!
But at this moment, he couldn't take action against Chu Ning.
The red-browed elder had just dodged Chu Ning's Primordial Ice Flame, giving Wu Changdong an opportunity.
At this moment, the mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator from the Cloudsoar Alliance unleashed his offensive like a storm, causing even the red-browed elder to briefly avoid his sharp edge, giving Wu Changdong the upper hand.
Moreover, the red-browed elder also had to be on guard against a sneak attack from Chu Ning.
While continuously casting spells to defend against Wu Changdong, his attention naturally divided, with a portion focused on Chu Ning.
As expected, when he saw Chu Ning holding the Five Elements Spirit Sword, locking onto him with his qi, the red-browed elder's face filled with even more anger.
He had just witnessed the black-haired old woman being turned into nothingness by Chu Ning's Primordial Ice Flame in just a few breaths.
At this moment, he was truly wary of Chu Ning.
Although he didn't detect the presence of the Primordial Ice Flame in Chu Ning's sword through his spiritual sense, he dared not take any chances.
The red-browed elder made a series of intricate hand seals, summoning his natal magic treasure, the purple-black circular cauldron, to defend against Chu Ning's attack.
The five-colored sword radiance slashed onto the cauldron, which glowed with purple-black light, resulting in a stalemate for a moment before dissipating.
The purple-black light on the cauldron also faded significantly.
What slightly reassured the red-browed elder was the fact that there didn't seem to be any Primordial Ice Flame.
But the next moment, his expression changed drastically, and he quickly flew away with his cauldron.
Seeing the defensive glow on the cauldron diminish, Wu Changdong seized the opportunity and directed his natal magic treasure to attack.
The red-browed elder dodged swiftly, but Wu Changdong's lightning spells were renowned for their speed.
Several silver arcs descended, and while the purple-black cauldron blocked some, one struck the red-browed elder.
When the red-browed elder reappeared, one side of his face had a charred black color, making him look rather disheveled.
"Hahaha! Well done, Fellow Daoist Chu!"
After a prolonged battle, this was the first time Wu Changdong had truly injured the red-browed elder, and he couldn't help but laugh aloud.
He continued to wield his lightning-type magic treasure, relentlessly attacking the red-browed elder.
"Daoist Wu, you handle this. I'll go help the others."
Upon hearing this, the only one who breathed a slight sigh of relief was the red-browed elder; the other four Demon Path Alliance cultivators became tense, especially the three Infant Soul stage cultivators, who now felt an urge to turn and flee.
Chu Ning had just killed three Infant Soul cultivators by himself, and they already felt hard-pressed to hold their ground against him. If he joined the siege, they knew they wouldn't stand a chance.
However, the Cloudsoar Alliance cultivators who heard this were overjoyed, and their attacks became even more fierce. Even if they wanted to retreat, they couldn't do so for the time being.
Many of the Demon Path Alliance cultivators couldn't help but feel secretly bitter.
As for the remaining Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators, they were terrified.
They feared that Chu Ning wouldn't go after the Infant Soul cultivators but would come straight for them instead.
If an Infant Soul cultivator turned their attention to them, it would be a disaster.
At this moment, Chu Ning did not immediately rush to attack the Infant Soul cultivators.
Instead, he released his spiritual sense, covering the entire battlefield.
He found that, overall, the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators were evenly matched.
The Demon Path Alliance clearly understood that the key to this battle lay with the top fighters. As long as the Infant Soul cultivators held the advantage, the rest was not a concern.
So, in terms of numbers of Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators, the Demon Path Alliance held no significant advantage.
However, the Demon Path Alliance had no shortage of cultivators skilled in demonic and ghostly arts, whose cruel and bizarre methods caused no small amount of trouble for the Cloudsoar Alliance cultivators.
After taking a look at the situation, Chu Ning felt much more at ease.
He then patted his waist, releasing the Golden Lightning Eagle from its spirit beast bag.
"Little Jin, there are quite a few ghost cultivators over there. They're all yours!"
"Guuu!"
After advancing to the Golden Core stage, the Golden Lightning Eagle gained the ability to devour ghosts and souls. Sensing the myriad ghostly auras in the distance, it flapped its wings excitedly, letting out a cry before diving towards the battlefield where the Golden Core cultivators fought!
As for Chu Ning, he turned around and, after a quick scan, flew towards the direction where Qin Yangzi was located.
The Demon Path Alliance was also aware that Qin Yangzi was the key figure, so they had arranged for several of the Infant Soul cultivators with the highest cultivation levels to fight him.
Even with Qin Yangzi's fierce attacks, he hadn't gained the upper hand.
The one fighting Qin Yangzi was a middle-aged man with a pale face and no beard.
When he saw Chu Ning flying towards him, his face changed drastically.
He waved the bone fan-like treasure in his hand, launching several sharp attacks that forced Qin Yangzi to focus on defense.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the pale-faced middle-aged man turned around and tried to flee.
Qin Yangzi coldly harrumphed. The crown on his head shot out several short blades, blocking the man's escape route.
The pale-faced middle-aged cultivator showed no sign of stopping, however.
He casually threw the bone fan in his hand, blocking the short blades in mid-air.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he tried to retrieve the fan.
But at that moment, two thin red silk threads shot out and wrapped around the fan.
The bone fan, which had been about to return to its owner, suddenly stopped in mid-air.
When the pale-faced man tried to control it again, he found that he couldn't.
Chu Ning had arrived!
The pale-faced man didn't know if he was unfamiliar with the old freak called Luo Laogui, but he didn't recognize the thin red silk threads.
His astonishment and panic were evident as his treasure was controlled, and even his body paused for a moment.
But the next moment, he frantically fled, trying to reach the area where the Golden Core cultivators were fighting.
However, in that brief moment of delay, it was too late.
Using the Void Escape art to close the distance, Chu Ning shot out his Five Elements Spirit Sword, which circled in front of the man before slashing down at him!
Without his treasure in hand, the pale-faced man didn't dare to take the blow head-on and naturally didn't dare to continue charging forward.
He could only veer to the side, but after flying just ten feet, he stopped again, his face filled with shock.
Because, at that moment, a figure had appeared in front of him.
The next moment, fist shadows shimmering with golden light bombarded him!
