Chapter 110: Fierce Battle

Inside the camp of Jiuyou Palace, the xianling railgun continuously spewed endless fury.

Several Asking Dao stage Elders of Jiuyou Palace led teams of Soul Formation stage powerhouses.

They even stepped outside the guarded range of the defensive Formation and directly slaughtered their way into the group of Sea of Fire strange beasts.

Immediately, under the bombardment of countless high-power Divine Abilities, a large number of Sea of Fire strange beasts were directly blasted into slag in large batches.

Millions of strange beasts were beaten into utter chaos under the Divine Ability bombardment of dozens of high-level Cultivators.

These Sea of Fire strange beast groups, which posed a fatal threat to the grade-five cultivation countries,

were like infants under the hands of the grade-six cultivation country Jiuyou Palace, completely lacking any power to resist.

For a time, the number of strange beasts continuously surging from the Sea of Fire toward Jiuyou Palace could not even keep up with the speed at which they were being exterminated by Jiuyou Palace.

However, this situation immediately changed after giant strange beasts sleeping deep within the Sea of Fire rushed out from the Sea of Fire.

At this moment, outside the defensive Formation of Jiuyou Palace, Elder Liu Qing gently pushed forward with one palm.

A cyan light sphere immediately emerged in front of Liu Qing's palm, and then instantly smashed down rapidly toward the group of strange beasts ahead like a cyan sun.

"Boom!"

The cyan light sphere fell into the group of strange beasts and immediately expanded and exploded.

Tens of thousands of strange beasts instantly turned to ashes within this expanding and exploding cyan light sphere.

Furthermore, tens of thousands of strange beasts on the outer perimeter were affected by this cyan light sphere Divine Ability, suffering numerous casualties for a time.

"Mere mob, truly knowing neither the height of heaven nor the depth of earth!"

After throwing out this powerful Divine Ability, Liu Qing, who was in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage, couldn't help but mutter softly with a hint of mockery flashing across the corner of his mouth.

At that very moment, a rapid whistling sound suddenly came fiercely from the distant sky.

Hearing this whistling sound, a trace of doubt flashed in Liu Qing's eyes as he extended his Divine Sense and probed toward the direction whence the sound came.

Seeing Liu Qing's Divine Sense lightly sweep across, his expression abruptly changed drastically.

"An Asking Dao stage strange beast!"

Shocked, Liu Qing couldn't help but exclaim aloud.

Don't look at how Liu Qing brutally slaughtered strange beasts just now, which was even simpler than killing chickens.

That was built upon the foundation that Liu Qing's cultivation Realm was far higher than that of the strange beasts.

Liu Qing's own cultivation belonged to the bottom-tier existence within the Asking Dao stage.

Back then, when he was able to advance to the Asking Dao stage, he had taken a shortcut with the help of Palace Master Ouyang Mo.

Otherwise, he would have died long ago after hearing the Dao in the morning.

However, when Liu Qing advanced to the Asking Dao stage, although he managed to cling to his little life with the help of Palace Master Ouyang Mo,

his strength was trapped in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage for the rest of his life, with no possibility of making any further progress for the rest of his life.

Unless he could find the legendary Origin Qi crystals containing Origin Qi, there would be a sliver of possibility for his cultivation to improve once again.

However, not to mention that these Origin Qi crystals had long since gone extinct,

even if they truly still existed, they were definitely not something trash in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage like him was qualified to lay his hands on.

Yet now, a strange beast of the same Asking Dao Realm had actually appeared, and judging by its direction, it was rushing directly toward him, Liu Qing.

How could Liu Qing not be alarmed?

Seeing this, Liu Qing let out a strange cry, said nothing more, turned around, and ran straight into the defensive Formation.

Unfortunately, the strange beast's speed was extremely fast, and although Liu Qing's reaction was not considered slow,

after all, he was still a step slower than the Asking Dao stage strange beast, and he was squarely crashed into by an Asking Dao stage strange beast right on his body.

"Puff!"

Without any suspense, this furious and hateful crash by the strange beast directly caused Liu Qing to spew a mouthful of fresh blood mid-air.

Immediately afterward, the Origin fire within the strange beast's body rushed into the Primordial Spirit inside Liu Qing's body, burning Liu Qing so that he screamed continuously.

Liu Qing's figure uncontrollably flew backward.

Strands of crimson flames continuously emerged from his flying body.

Then, the Asking Dao stage strange beast fiercely hammered its own chest a few times with both hands.

Then, twisted and complex blood-colored patterns continuously lit up from the glazed body of this Asking Dao stage strange beast.

Suddenly, the strange beast abruptly opened its large mouth, and a torrent of magma fire containing extreme scorching energy sprayed out fiercely from its mouth.

In just a flash, it shot fiercely toward Liu Qing, who had yet to land.

Seeing this, Liu Qing was greatly terrified.

At this moment, the Dharmic power within his body was scattered from the crash, and his Primordial Spirit was close to spontaneous combustion under the scorching of the crimson flames.

At such a critical moment, he simply had no strength left to resist this incoming torrent of energy fire.

"My life is over!"

Liu Qing's face turned pale as he couldn't help exclaiming aloud.

The instant Liu Qing closed his eyes to await death, a figure abruptly appeared in front of him.

This figure was none other than Palace Master Ouyang Mo of Jiuyou Palace.

Palace Master Ouyang Mo quickly extended a palm and gently pinched at the incoming torrent of energy fire.

The torrent of fire containing immense energy directly collapsed and scattered under Palace Master Ouyang Mo's gentle pinch.

Following that, Palace Master Ouyang Mo extended a finger once again and gently pointed across the air toward the Asking Dao Realm strange beast.

A stream of ink-colored water immediately shot out from Palace Master Ouyang Mo's fingertips.

This stream of ink-colored water merely flashed in front of Palace Master Ouyang Mo's finger and abruptly arrived before that Asking Dao Realm strange beast.

The moment this originally extremely arrogant Asking Dao Realm strange beast saw this stream of ink-colored water, a hint of terror was immediately revealed in its eyes.

In its eagerness, the fiery red single horn on top of this Asking Dao Realm strange beast's head abruptly detached.

Then, it stabbed fiercely toward the incoming stream of ink-colored water.

In the blink of an eye, this fiery red single horn collided with the stream of ink-colored water.

This fiery red single horn was the hardest part of the strange beast's entire body.

Especially for a strange beast whose cultivation had reached the Asking Dao Realm, the hardness of the single horn on its head had long reached an unimaginably bizarre degree.

Unfortunately, this strange beast had only just reached the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage.

Compared to a Cultivator like Palace Master Ouyang Mo who had reached the half-step Yin Void Realm, the gap in their strength was practically as vast as heaven and earth.

Furthermore, Palace Master Ouyang Mo was not an ordinary half-step Yin Void Realm Cultivator; his Divine Ability methods were extremely formidable.

Even against ordinary Yin Void Realm Cultivators, Palace Master Ouyang Mo could exchange blows with them.

This was also the reason why Palace Master Ouyang Mo could make Tianyunzi look at him with high regard.

Therefore, under Palace Master Ouyang Mo's stream of ink-colored water, this extremely hard strange beast horn directly collapsed inch by inch.

However, after shattering the horn on top of the strange beast's head, the power of the ink-colored water stream was also mostly consumed.

The remaining small portion of the ink-colored water stream fiercely bombarded this strange beast's body without any further obstruction.

In an instant, this strange beast in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage immediately let out a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering miserable scream.

Under the impact of the ink-colored water stream, a small half of its glazed body melted and disintegrated in the blink of an eye.

The remaining half of its body was also covered with cracks, just like a cracked piece of fired porcelain.

However, the vitality of this Asking Dao Realm strange beast was also extremely formidable.

Even after being struck like this by Palace Master Ouyang Mo with a single blow, it still did not die.

Howling miserably, the Asking Dao Realm strange beast's remaining half of its broken body frantically fled toward the group of strange beasts.

After fleeing into the strange beast group, this Asking Dao Realm strange beast immediately opened its large mouth and sucked fiercely toward the surrounding low-tier strange beasts.

In an instant, tens of thousands of low-tier strange beasts, under the fierce suction of this Asking Dao Realm strange beast,

had their bodies collapse one by one, and then transformed into streams of crimson energy of varying sizes, which were sucked into the mouth of this Asking Dao Realm strange beast.

After absorbing the energy within the bodies of tens of thousands of low-tier strange beasts in one breath,

the cracks on the half body of this Asking Dao Realm strange beast immediately began to rapidly heal.

After just a moment of effort, all the cracks on its half body completely healed.

Meanwhile, the remaining completely collapsed half body also began to slowly recover under the nourishment of the energy from tens of thousands of low-tier strange beasts.

Strange beasts of the Asking Dao Realm were no longer as crazy and completely devoid of reason as low-tier strange beasts.

Not to mention how smart they had become, at least they already understood the basic biological instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding harm.

The might of Palace Master Ouyang Mo's single point completely frightened this strange beast in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage out of its wits.

After swallowing tens of thousands of low-tier strange beasts in one gulp, it immediately fled into the distance without looking back.

Unfortunately, it wanted to escape now, but Palace Master Ouyang Mo had completely no intention of letting it go.

Watching this frantically fleeing strange beast in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage, a cruel smile flashed across Palace Master Ouyang Mo's mouth.

"You come when you want and leave when you want. You beast, do you treat this place as your own home?!"

Palace Master Ouyang Mo muttered with full murderous intent, and then his figure flickered, immediately pursuing to the front of this strange beast in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage.

Seeing this, the strange beast in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage was even more terrified in its heart.

Then, without a word, it changed direction and prepared to flee elsewhere.

However, at that exact moment, Palace Master Ouyang Mo's palm gently patted down upon the top of this strange beast's head with a motion that seemed slow yet was actually extremely fast.

Being gently patted by Palace Master Ouyang Mo's palm, the strange beast's body suddenly trembled violently as if struck by lightning.

Following that, the fire of life in the eyes of this strange beast in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage abruptly dissipated.

After killing this strange beast in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage with a single palm, Palace Master Ouyang Mo raised his hand and waved toward the mostly recovered strange beast corpse.

This huge strange beast corpse immediately drifted towards Liu Qing behind Palace Master Ouyang Mo as if it were as light as nothing.

"This strange beast physique has undergone tens of thousands of years of earth fire tempering, and has already given birth to a wisp of undying intent.

It can be considered a decent Artifact Refining material.

You may put it away yourself, which can be considered a slight compensation for your injury for the Sect this time."

Palace Master Ouyang Mo spoke to Liu Qing, who was not far behind him, without turning his head.

At this time, Liu Qing had already suffered heavy injuries under the ferocious attack of that strange beast.

Right now, with Palace Master Ouyang Mo's assistance, he barely managed to catch half a breath.

Looking at the corpse of the strange beast in the Early Stage of the Asking Dao stage casually thrown over by Palace Master Ouyang Mo, a hint of pleasant surprise couldn't help but be revealed on Liu Qing's pale face.

"This Disciple thanks Palace Master for bestowing the treasure!"

Reacting, Liu Qing immediately cupped his fists and spoke respectfully toward Palace Master Ouyang Mo.

Hearing this, Palace Master Ouyang Mo waved his hand dismissively at Liu Qing behind him, and then said:

"Elder Liu is heavily injured at the moment; for now, return inside the defensive Formation!"

Hearing Palace Master Ouyang Mo's words, Liu Qing bowed deeply to Palace Master Ouyang Mo once again, and then flew toward the defensive Formation without hesitation.

At this moment, Liu Qing had indeed suffered extremely heavy injuries, and wandering around on this dangerous battlefield was obviously somewhat inappropriate.

After Liu Qing retreated, Palace Master Ouyang Mo's gaze immediately looked into the distance with a trace of solemnity.

A moment later, in the direction Palace Master Ouyang Mo was looking, nearly ten Asking Dao Realm strange beasts flew over once again.

Most of them were in the Early and Middle Stages of the Asking Dao stage.

After rushing over, they were immediately intercepted by several other Asking Dao stage Elders of Jiuyou Palace.

However, even so, there were still several Soul Formation stage powerhouses of Jiuyou Palace who died under the sharp claws of the Asking Dao stage strange beasts due to being caught off guard.

However, besides those strange beasts in the Early and Middle Stages of the Asking Dao stage that were intercepted by other Elders,

there were three other strange beasts whose strength clearly reached the Late Stage of the Asking Dao stage.

Strange beasts of this Realm were no longer something the Elders whose highest cultivation was only the Middle Stage of the Asking Dao stage could cope with.

Seeing Palace Master Ouyang Mo staring coldly at those three strange beasts in the Late Stage of the Asking Dao stage, he then reached out and slashed with his hand.

A stream of ink-colored water immediately wound toward those three strange beasts in the Late Stage of the Asking Dao stage like a silk ribbon.

Seeing this, those three strange beasts in the Late Stage of the Asking Dao stage let out a wild roar to the sky, and then charged fiercely toward Palace Master Ouyang Mo without any fear.

While running in mid-air, these three strange beasts in the Late Stage of the Asking Dao stage spat out crimson fireballs one after another toward the stream of ink-colored water slashed out by Palace Master Ouyang Mo.

The fireballs containing immense energy crossed the sky and smashed heavily onto the stream of ink-colored water.

Moreover, the moment these crimson fireballs smashed onto the stream of ink-colored water, they immediately exploded violently.

The berserk crimson fireballs continuously shattered and blasted apart the stream of ink-colored water.

After just a moment of effort, a large number of crimson fireballs, together with that stream of ink-colored water, dissipated in mid-air.

"All starry sky giant ships, immediately use the xianling railgun to assist in killing these Asking Dao Realm strange beasts!"

After exchanging a blow with these three strange beasts in the Late Stage of the Asking Dao stage, Palace Master Ouyang Mo immediately gave orders to the Disciples of Jiuyou Palace.

At this moment, there were a bit too many Asking Dao Realm strange beasts rushing into the battlefield, though Palace Master Ouyang Mo's side was doing fine.

Although he was besieged by three strange beasts of the same rank, relying on his formidable combat strength, he was currently suppressing and beating these three strange beasts in the Late Stage of the Asking Dao stage.

However, the positions of the other Elders of Jiuyou Palace were obviously becoming somewhat unfavorable.

The Asking Dao Realm Elders of Jiuyou Palace were at least bombarding each other with a strange beast of the same rank at this moment.

Some were even being besieged by two strange beasts of the same rank, and their situation was extremely precarious.

You must know that not every Asking Dao Realm Cultivator possessed the ability of Palace Master Ouyang Mo to fight three opponents alone.

Aside from trash like Liu Qing, who couldn't even defeat a strange beast of the same rank, the other Asking Dao Realm Elders of Jiuyou Palace

could only fight to a draw with strange beasts of the same rank.

Once surrounded by two strange beasts of the same rank, their situation would immediately become dangerous.

Since Palace Master Ouyang Mo could not free up his hands, he could only let the Cultivators of Jiuyou Palace use the xianling railguns of the starry sky giant ships to conduct long-range firepower suppression on those Asking Dao Realm strange beasts.

"Boom!"

Along with deafening loud noises resembling heavenly thunder,

fleet after fleet of starry sky giant ships immediately aimed their xianling railguns at those Asking Dao Realm strange beasts, firing streams of exterminating immortal light.
