While waiting for Ying Luozhi’s arrival, not a single party started a conversation. The atmosphere at the place looked very awkward. No one broke the silence, because no one wanted to place themselves in the middle of the two people’s business. Xiao Tian’s group remained standing behind their commander. Shen Haoran and his troops sat cross-legged for a while, then slowly stood up, waiting for further orders without making movements that could be misunderstood. After three days passed, the change was finally clearly felt. The pressure that descended from afar did not come like a wild storm, but rather like a will directed with absolute precision. It pressed straight from one direction, as if there were eyes assessing the entire area from above. Even those who had long stood firm in high realms still felt their breaths become heavier. Xiao Tian’s group was not a collection of weaklings. Yet under that pressure, their shoulders stiffened, and their feet adjusted instinctively. So

The air trembled every time kicks and fists met the Asura Demon Hands. Yet even though the ten hands moved very quickly to fend off each of Xiao Tian’s attacks, several blows still landed perfectly on some of her vital points. Some of Ying Luozhi’s blocks did successfully hold back part of the attack momentum. But the blows that slipped through did not come with strength that could be ignored so easily. Every time Xiao Tian’s attack landed, Ying Luozhi’s body visibly tensed for a moment. Not just from pain, but because the inside of her body was forced to accept pressure that was not completely compatible with the structure of her Asura Demon Body. The collisions did not always leave external wounds, but each impact felt like forcing foreign power to enter and strike from within. BAANG BAANG BAANG!! A series of collision sounds continued to ring out, overlapping in the air. BOOM!!! When Xiao Tian suddenly increased his speed to an extreme point, Ying Luozhi’s defense pattern b

There were still more than a billion moving toward Xiao Tian. The first wave was destroyed, but the pressure had not decreased. The space in front of Xiao Tian remained full, filled with red forms that kept approaching, as if the recent destruction had only scraped the surface of the actual charge. Xiao Tian drew the Mysterious Rusty Sword. Once the sword appeared, the space around it immediately underwent a subtle yet oppressive change. There was no excessive light, no excessive sound, but the sky previously filled with blood-red gas seemed to lose its stability. The wind that had been swirling chaotically suddenly stalled, as if something higher had taken over control. Then Xiao Tian executed the Thunder Fire Phoenix Lotus Slaughter technique! A sharp cry shook the space. A giant Fire Phoenix appeared and immediately rose into the air. Its body towered high, and when its wings spread fully, their span reached hundreds of thousands of miles. This size far exceeded Xiao Tian’s p

The sky above trembled violently. Dark lightning bolts struck aimlessly, clouds swirled wildly, and pressure descended like a weight pressing down on existence itself. As if the world was being forced to accept a form that should not exist. “Xiao Tian,” Ying Luozhi’s voice rumbled, louder than a calamitous divine lightning strike, “can you face me as I am now?” Ying Luozhi looked at Xiao Tian like she was looking at an insignificant ant. Yet when she saw Xiao Tian’s expression, she furrowed her brow, Xiao Tian seemed to not consider her existence at all. To Ying Luozhi, that difference felt infuriating. She had displayed a form that made many people back away, but Xiao Tian stood firm without changing his stance. No step back, no evasive movement, even his gaze did not show the caution that usually appeared when facing an opponent of this level. “I hate that look, I am sick of it! Xiao Tian, you must die!” Ying Luozhi did not wait for an answer. She did not give anyone a chance

“I still had to keep practicing the Void Swallowing the Cosmos technique; even though I had made progress, I still couldn’t control its suction power. It was truly a pity, so many high-status people I had killed, yet I couldn’t get their divine rings. Everything was swallowed by the Void Swallowing the Cosmos technique,” Xiao Tian muttered. Those words did not come from emotional complaint, but from cold calculation of what had just happened. Every word spoken carried the weight of direct experience with a technique that was not yet fully under his control. Those words came out while his body was still in recovery. Though he had taken pills and divine plants, the remnants of pressure from the technique he had just used had not completely faded from his body. His breathing was steady, but the flow of divine energy in his meridians still felt dense, as if it had just been forced to move in an unnatural way. Around him, the ground where he stood no longer had its natural arrangemen
