Mantis Stalks Cicada, Oriole Behind!

  "Not good...... it's the Taiyi Huanyuan Patriarch of the Five Elements Sect!"

  With a mind like Shen Ni's, his body possessed wisdom eyes. He was the first to spot that half-road killer, and rolled away the three great demon kings' original life pearls and the true form of the black light that had assimilated with Guihua's divine sound.

  When such a change occurred, Liusheng Zhenren was naturally the most anxious one. Due to that black light coming and going, the speed was incredibly fast, and it seemed that he couldn't catch up no matter how hard he tried. Without hesitation, Liusheng Zhenren raised his hand and threw out a thunderbolt flashing with dazzling blue light - the secret treasure of Shen Yin Men: Xian Tian Gang Lei!

  This innate thunder is a unique and powerful technique that requires the essence of the Nine Heavenly Winds to be condensed and refined. The process of refining it is extremely complex, with each thunder pearl taking ten years to cultivate, and can only be used once before disappearing. Throughout the entire Shen Yin Gate, there are only about ten or so of these pearls in existence, making them extremely precious. However, the current situation does not allow Flowing Sound True Person to be sentimental about the innate thunder. After all, if the Refining God's Voice falls into his hands, the consequences would be a hundred times more severe than using up an innate thunder pearl.

  Although it was a one-time luxury consumption, its power was undeniable, like an extremely fast blue marble, it quickly caught up with the black light that had already flown out of hundreds of feet, at this time, under the control of Liu Yin Zhen Ren, the Xian Tian Gang Lei exploded in the air like fireworks.

  "Boom!"

  In an instant, the entire sky was filled with brilliant blue lightning, rolling and spreading out in all directions, illuminating everything around it a deep blue. Endless waves of lightning surged forward, all striking down towards that black glow.

  Just as Xin Yu Ni had expected, the sudden appearance of black light was indeed the Taiyi Hunyuan Patriarch of the Wutai Sect. The dispute between the three great demon kings and the Buddhist and Taoist sects this time was actually provoked by the demonic path's side door with ulterior motives. When they were at war, all the demonic path's side doors naturally watched from the sidelines, sensing the situation on this side with their divine consciousness, waiting for the best opportunity.

  When the Poison Dragon King showed off his half-step Golden Immortal-level super strength, Xuan Yuan Fa Wang, Tai Yi Hunyuan Zu Shi, Yao Shi Gu Chen, and the two great demon women Chen Zi Qian and Xin Ru Yu all sensed something and quietly approached a little closer. Later, they saw the ancient artifact Gui Hua Shen Yin being taken out by Liu Yin Zhen Ren to subdue demons and evil spirits. The three great demon kings joined forces to resist, but still suffered heavy damage under Gui Hua Shen Yin's one blow.

  Originally, according to Xuan Yuan's idea, it was still necessary to wait a little longer. After all, although the three great demon kings were seriously injured, they still had the power to fight again. Moreover, the Buddhist and Taoist cultivators had hardly consumed much of their strength. If they rushed up now, they might not be able to gain any advantage.

  But the Taiyi Hunyuan Zushi did not think so, because he saw the three great demon kings' Benming Yuanshen falling with the Huigui Huasheng sound, and these three great demon kings' Benming Yuanshen had an irresistible temptation for the Taiyi Hunyuan Zushi, which was absolutely enough to prompt him to take a risk.

  So he didn't care about Xuan Yuan Fawang's advice, and immediately transformed into a black light that rolled up the three great demon kings' Benming Yuanshen, including Guihua Shen Yin.

  Suddenly, a burst of thunder and lightning exploded, filling the sky with flames. Even the powerful Taizhen Hunyuan Zushi had to stop in his tracks. But then he raised his hand, and five strange smoke pillars shot out, merging and blending together into a hazy light shield that protected him. The rolling thunder and flames surged around him, but the colorful smoke clouds churned and tumbled, and with a burst of smoke and fire, everything was completely extinguished.

  "Old Demon, stop running and quickly return my treasure..."

  Just as the heavenly thunder was about to erupt, delaying Taizhen's movement for a brief moment, Liuyin Zhenren had already burst forth with a speed of 120,000 miles per hour, chasing up from behind. His body was surging with magical energy, his eyes were like burning embers, and he stared intently at Taizhen not far away, his voice raging in anger.

  "Flowing Sound Old Man, you're not dreaming, are you? When have you ever heard of our Old Ancestor willingly handing over something that's already in his grasp to someone else? Haha!" The Primordial Chaos Taizhen laughed loudly, and with a wave of his hand, the five-colored mist churned and twisted, transforming into five thick pillars of smoke that shot straight at Flowing Sound True Man.

  Liu Yin Zhen Ren was also quick to react, and at the moment when he couldn't tolerate it anymore, he suddenly released a brilliant golden flying sword. As soon as the sword move started, it instantly transformed into a sword curtain, which firmly blocked the five-colored smoke clouds in front of him.

  "This old ancestor has no time to play with you, haha……" Taiyi Hunyuan Zushi used the Taiyi Five Smoke Net to block Liu Yin Zhenren, while other Buddhist and Taoist cultivators were rushing in this direction, but they couldn't be faster than Liu Yin Zhenren. Just as this old demon was about to snatch the three great demon kings' Benming Yuanzhu and successfully escape with Guihua Shen, an unexpected change occurred.

  A flash of black sword light suddenly appeared behind the back of Taiyi Hunyuan Zushi, and fiercely slashed into his back. Suddenly attacked, thanks to this old demon's skills, Taiyi Wuyan Luo's eyes had already transformed into a five-colored smoke cloud wrapping around his body, but even so, it was still unable to completely block that black sword light.

  "Hmph—"

  A black sword light swept across, carrying a cluster of deep red blood color, and left a deep visible bone wound on the back of Taiyi Hunyuan Zushi, with fresh blood splashing.

  "Ah!" A pained cry, Taiyi Hunyuan Zushi had just let out a mournful wail when a tall and imposing figure clad entirely in black descended from the sky. His five fingers spread wide, transforming into an enormous palm that came crashing down towards him!

  He had just eaten a sword, but Taizhen's heart was not daring to harden at this moment. He turned his body sideways, but unexpectedly, the palm of heaven came quickly and didn't give him any chance to react. It snatched away the demon king's pearl he had worked so hard to obtain, as well as the divine sound of return. The tall black figure transformed into a dark rainbow, jumping through space, disappearing in an instant within a white extreme light, leaving no trace.

  This was just a sudden event, and the people present, whether they were Buddhist or Taoist cultivators or the Taiyi Hunyuan ancestors, did not expect such an outcome. The appearance of the black figure raised a huge question mark in everyone's mind. Who was this powerful person who could possess such a terrifying speed, five or six times faster than even flying swords?

  "It's no use chasing...!"

  Seeing the many Buddhist and Taoist cultivators rapidly catching up from behind, Taiyi Hunyuan Zushi was also anxious, but didn't dare to linger for a moment. He transformed into a black light and rushed towards the direction where Xuan Yuan Fa Wang and others were, while also slightly moving his divine thoughts to retrieve the five smoke columns that were still desperately entwining Liu Yin Zhenren.

  At this moment, the real person's heart was anxious again, his eyes were red, and he was about to catch up with Taizhen Hunyuan Zushi to fight to the death. However, he was pulled back by Huanxin Monk who rushed over and said: "Real person, you also saw that the mantis hunts the cicada, but the oriole is behind. That old demon didn't get any benefit either, he didn't obtain the Returning Spirit Sound. Now if we rashly chase after him, we might fall into the evil sect's demonic trap."

  The Flowing Sound True Person, who had been calmed down by the Heart and Soul Monk's persuasion, still indignantly said in his heart: "This time, after the Purple Cloud Palace Secret Realm opens, I will definitely go to the Wu Tai Sect to settle accounts with that old demon head..." He paused for a moment, then asked the Heart Like Goddess, who possessed the wisdom of Buddhism, "Goddess, did you see clearly the origin of that black-robed person who suddenly appeared just now?"

  "True person, do not be anxious. Although that black-robed man came and went like lightning, he still could not escape the poor nun's wise eyes. That was not a human being, but rather someone else's external incarnation or puppet."

  As soon as he heard that the one who had stolen the Hua Yin Divine Sound was just someone else's external incarnation, Liu Yin suddenly felt hopeless. After all, if it were a real person, he could have searched for it in the Ziyun Palace secret realm and possibly recovered the Hua Yin Divine Sound by tracing the aura. But if it was stolen by the opponent's external incarnation, then the chance of recovering the Hua Yin Divine Sound would be extremely slim.

  In the distant sky, a black figure suddenly appeared out of thin air, and the surrounding space surged. A crimson flame, a spatial fluctuation, and two obscure fluctuations emerged one after another.

  "Hmm..."

  Space seemed to be shaken, a black and red figure appeared in the air, arriving at the side of the black-robed man in an instant. It was as if they had seen something terrifying, the four stocks of hidden fluctuations that were spying on the black-robed man earlier all retreated, leaving this space and disappearing without a trace.

  "I thought you guys wanted to start a fight with Xiao Yunfei right now?!"

  A faint murmur in his mouth, Xiao Yunfei suddenly raised his hand, under the gaze of Cui Wuguni beside him, the black-robed man instantly transformed into a flowing light and disappeared into Xiao Yunfei's body.
