Chapter 159: The Rising Reputation of the Prodigies

A Golden Core Stage Cultivator who had sustained some injuries was heard saying, "We are still at a disadvantage on our side right now."

"But as more and more people arrive now, the situation has improved quite a bit; the tide might turn later on."

The Golden Core Stage Cultivator scanned his surroundings, "Look, many new faces have appeared here, and many people from the various Sects have arrived now."

"Fortunately, the place we came to this time has sufficient safeguards."

"Various Sects have had Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators arrive here, and it is said that it won't be long before Soul Transformation Stage Cultivators might also come here, though I don't know if the news is true or false."

"It is fine if Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators fight, but if Soul Transformation Stage Cultivators start fighting, it could be described as world-destroying."

"We would only be able to evacuate from here to avoid being caught in the crossfire. To tell you the truth, I have never witnessed what a battle between Soul Transformation Stage Cultivators looks like."

"For hundreds of years, there has been no word of Soul Transformation Stage Cultivators fighting. If the Soul Transformation Cultivators from both sides clash, I don't know who will win."

Another person hurriedly stood up to refute, "It must be our side that wins! Do you actually want the Demon Race side to win?"

That person shook his head hurriedly, "How is that possible? I certainly hope our side wins; how could I possibly want the Demon Race to win? Didn't you see the injuries I sustained?"

"I have already slain several Golden Core Stage members of the Demon Race, as well as quite a few Foundation Establishment Stage members."

Su Yu glanced at the person speaking; that individual indeed possessed some skill, and an average Golden Core Stage Cultivator would truly be no match for him.

It was no wonder he spoke like that.

At this moment, another person also spoke up, "I heard that in other places, Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators have already started fighting, but I haven't heard any news of casualties."

"It is said that our side has a slight advantage in those Nascent Soul Stage battles, and news has also spread that many Prodigies from the Eight Great Sects have already begun to take action."

"Xiao Jun of the Joyful Union Sect and the Senior Brother of the Spirit Sea Sect are said to have already arrived, and some people have even seen Xiao Jun of the Joyful Union Sect killing quite a few members of the Demon Race along the way."

"With them joining the battlefield, it will be enough to give the Demon Race a hard time."

"Although they are not as dazzling as those from the Profound Heaven Sect and the Myriad Swords Sect, I heard that they are also people who have one foot into the Soul Transformation Stage; this is not something we can imagine."

"Right now, there is no news about the Prodigies from the Profound Heaven Sect and the Myriad Swords Sect."

"I don't know when they will appear; I really want to catch a glimpse of the demeanor of that Ye Lin from the Profound Heaven Sect."

"I heard that in just over a hundred years, he has stepped into the Late Stage of Spirit Transformation Realm."

"I estimate that if he continues to grow at this pace, it won't be long before he can head to the legendary Holy Land of cultivation, the Spirit Domain."

"Many Sects have now defected to the Profound Heaven Sect, and a large part of the reason is because of the existence of this Ye Lin. With him in the Profound Heaven Sect, most people believe that it is relatively safe there."

"Moreover, the Profound Heaven Sect itself is very powerful. After all, I heard that part of the reason for the War between Immortals and Demons a thousand years ago was the existence of the Profound Heaven Sect, the Myriad Swords Sect, and the Celestial Maiden Sect."

"They have been in a stalemate with the Demon Race, and the Demon Race's inability to capture them after a long siege indirectly led to them not winning against our side."

"Now, in the eyes of others, these three major Sects are definitely the first choice. If I had the opportunity, I would definitely defect to the Profound Heaven Sect."

"Furthermore, hasn't it been spread by people from other places that there is a woman named Han Ting in the Profound Heaven Sect who is now very famous over there?"

"It is said that her sword technique is extremely powerful, making many members of the Demon Race miserable."

"According to those who were on the scene, that sword technique can invoke the power of heaven and earth, and the resulting phenomenon is very astonishing."

"And the sword technique is also very—how should I put it? It is just very cool."

"Many people were attracted by that sword technique after just one look, but they don't know what that sword technique is called; it is rumored that it might have been learned from that Ye Lin."

"We cannot lose to them on our side; we must also project our Aura and let the Demon Race know how formidable we are."

Everyone was stirred by these words and began to shout in succession.

Wang Yang looked at Su Yu, "Brother Su, if I remember correctly, this Han Ting can be considered your niece, right? She is Brother Han's daughter, right?"

Su Yu nodded, "That is correct, she is Brother Han's daughter."

"No wonder she is so powerful."

The few of them did not know that the Sword Drawing Technique was taught to Han Ting by Su Yu; after all, he had never used the Sword Drawing Technique in front of Wang Yang and the others.

This technique was a bit overpowered in this group; if he were to use this technique, he would be the trump card of the team, not Wang Yang.

He did not want to steal Wang Yang's thunder.

He had also told Han Ting not to tell anyone that she learned the Sword Drawing Technique from him.

Wang Yang and the others also knew Han Shi; occasionally they had even drunk alcohol together at Su Yu's house, it was just that they were not very close.

They had indeed seen Han Ting and Han Shi before.

At this time, someone also started talking about the situation here, "Many Sects in the vicinity are still resisting the Demon Race; it is still very difficult for the Demon Race to conquer the surrounding Sects."

"Their Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators will enter the fray sooner or later, but for now, it is still a battle for us Golden Core Stage Cultivators, and reinforcements from the Demon Race are constantly arriving."

"I heard that they are preparing to assemble manpower this time to attack one Sect first."

"Those of us with the ability have already gone to help that Sect with its defense, and after I rest a bit, I will also be setting off."

Su Yu and the others subsequently asked around here and there, and they managed to understand the specific situation in the surrounding area.

Now it was time for them to make a choice.

After some discussion among themselves, they decided to follow the crowd to where there were more people.

That place needed their assistance more, and places with more people were also more likely to attract attention, although the Demon Race side was certainly also very focused on the situation there.

But if they wanted to make a move, the people on their side would be able to detect it quickly, so the danger of accidents was smaller compared to going to other places.

Li Yun and the others had no objections, and Su Yu had even fewer objections.

It was all the same to him wherever he went; it had no impact on him.

Following the choice of the majority was more in line with their status as a Passerby.

After the few of them had made their decision, they flew off toward this time's target.

Before long, they arrived in the vicinity of this time's target. Even before reaching the center of the battle, it was already completely different from other places.

The ground was already riddled with holes, and there were quite a few corpses of the Demon Race.

One could even see quite a few mummified corpses; at a glance, it was obvious they had been drained by the Demon Race.

This was also a rather tricky aspect of dealing with the Demon Race.

The place was filled with the Aura of death; this was the cruelty of a great war.

The group did not hesitate, accelerating forward. Along the way, there were also many people from other Sects coming to provide support.

Soon, Su Yu and the others arrived at the Sect that the Demon Race was mainly attacking this time.

Su Yu even saw that there were still quite a few people fighting the Demon Race outside.

All kinds of Spells and sword techniques were being unleashed frequently.

It seemed that this wave of offensive was almost over.

But just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, a large group of the Demon Race suddenly swarmed in, not giving them any chance to catch their breath at all.

Su Yu and the others looked at each other, and Wang Yang spoke up, "Let's go up as well, but remember not to get separated; this way we can ensure our safety and also unleash our maximum capability."

Su Yu looked at the Demon Race in the sky and didn't say anything. His gaze pierced through these Demon Race members, and he discovered something unusual among this group of the Demon Race.
