Chapter 244: The Old Ancestor Who Slays Void Refining

Ling Wanqing watched the two people fighting in the sky; the battle had already been going on for some time.

She still hadn't found any openings.

This was exactly as she had expected; making this Jiang Cheng reveal an opening was very difficult.

Jiang Cheng was always on guard during combat; after all, this Jiang Cheng was an old fox and wouldn't make those kinds of mistakes.

Especially at such a critical moment, and given that he was still holding back in his fight with Yue Xin, this was even more the case.

Unless Yue Xin could pose a threat to this Jiang Cheng during the fight,

And catch him off guard for a moment, there would be no opportunity.

But clearly, this was basically very difficult; one could say there was basically no great hope.

It was already not easy for Yue Xin to hold her own against Jiang Cheng for this long.

Perhaps there were other ways.

Su Yu watched Ling Wanqing observing the battle between their Celestial Maiden Sect Sect Master and that Jiang Cheng.

Seeing the situation, Su Yu knew that Ling Wanqing was looking for an opportunity.

But Su Yu thought Ling Wanqing also understood the logic behind this; in his view, the probability was negligible.

This was reality; Jiang Cheng's strength was there for all to see.

It seemed the Celestial Maiden Sect Sect Master wanted to delay as long as possible while also draining Jiang Cheng's stamina; that was their plan.

Even if she didn't find an opportunity, the later battle between Ling Wanqing and Jiang Cheng would be much easier.

In Su Yu's view, if there were no accidents, then this plan was indeed very good.

But Su Yu looked at Jiang Cheng; this Demon Race member was not as simple as they imagined right now.

The Demon Race didn't know about Ling Wanqing's existence yet, thinking Ling Wanqing was still just a minor character at the Nascent Soul Stage.

The Demon Clan members didn't take Ling Wanqing to heart.

This was also an information gap in the battle, and this information gap might bring unexpected gains.

Su Yu watched for a while and then withdrew his gaze; he wouldn't look anymore.

Su Yu turned his gaze to the Myriad Swords Sect's side.

The battle over there had been going on for a while, and he hadn't paid attention to the situation there.

Now he could see how things were over there.

Su Yu looked over; at this moment, for the Myriad Swords Sect, both sides could be said to be evenly matched.

Su Yu first checked on how the Myriad Swords Sect's Void Refinement Stage Old Ancestor was doing.

As expected, Su Yu knew that the Myriad Swords Sect had such an Old Ancestor.

Su Yu watched the Myriad Swords Sect's Old Ancestor suppressing that Lu He.

Although the difference in combat power between the two sides wasn't much, Lu He just couldn't win.

He never had any opportunity to fight back.

He was basically just defending, only getting a few strikes in when there was an opportunity.

But this Lu He was not someone to be trifled with either; he likely still had many methods he hadn't used.

It was hard to say who would win for the time being.

The other Old Ancestor was evenly matched with the Void Refinement Stage member on the Demon Race's side.

There was no need to worry about their Void Refinement Stage members for now; the Void Refinement Stage battles wouldn't be decided anytime soon.

The Myriad Swords Sect's Lu He watched the Myriad Swords Sect Old Ancestor attacking incessantly in front of him; he recognized this old fellow.

He hadn't expected this old fellow to still be around; this was something they hadn't anticipated.

This old fellow had been very troublesome during the War between Immortals and Demons a thousand years ago, causing their Demon Race to lose quite a few people.

He still remembered the scene from that battle a thousand years ago where he had slain a Demon Race Void Refinement Stage member with his sword.

Now, his strength was even greater, and his sword technique was becoming increasingly profound.

This sword technique forced him to busy himself with parrying; he was truly worthy of being an old bag of bones still holding the fort at the Myriad Swords Sect.

Lu He parried the Myriad Swords Sect Old Ancestor's attack.

He took the opportunity to speak: "Old fellow, you're still staying in this Southern Region even with your old bones; you are truly old."

"This old man does what he wants; it is not your Demon Race's place to comment."

"You, on the other hand, have grown quite a bit compared to a thousand years ago, but it is of no use before me."

"You Demon Clan members should hurry up and get out of the Southern Region—no, this time you must all stay; we will not let you run away like last time."

Lu He's expression darkened upon hearing this; his strength was indeed lower than this old fellow's, which had become clear during their exchange.

But having lived for so long, how could he not have any backup plans or methods up his sleeve?

"Old fellow, I hope you can still laugh when the time comes. Your Southern Region is destined to be taken by us Demon Clan members this time. I can give you a chance: get out of the Southern Region, and I won't make things difficult for you."

The Myriad Swords Sect's Old Ancestor looked at Lu He: "Wait until you can get past me first. If you can't even get past me, what is there to talk about taking the Southern Region? Anyone can brag."

"It's better to be practical."

Lu He was left speechless by the Myriad Swords Sect Old Ancestor.

His expression was gloomy; so that's how it was.

The aura on Lu He's body suddenly increased significantly, but the Myriad Swords Sect's Old Ancestor showed no change in expression.

The two began fighting again, only this time the battle was more intense than before.

Su Yu looked toward that Innate Sword Body.

Su Yu watched Li Yi; he was truly worthy of being an Innate Sword Body. If not for that Child of Destiny, Ye Lin, this Innate Sword Body would undoubtedly be the number one in the Southern Region.

This strength was truly beyond reproach; it was just a pity he encountered that brat Ye Lin.

But this wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

The pressure that Ye Lin brought him, and his belief in surpassing Ye Lin, also made his strength even greater.

If Ye Lin hadn't appeared, this Innate Sword Body might not have achieved what he had today.

In order to keep up with Ye Lin's shadow, this Innate Sword Body had been constantly climbing upward, which was how he became what he was now.

The so-called Prodigy on the Demon Race's side basically had no chance of winning.

Although the battle between the two was still ongoing, if it continued like this, a winner would be decided soon.

But Su Yu had already seen the two Soul Transformation Stage Demon Race members in the sky, ready to help at any moment.

These two Soul Transformation Stage Demon Race members were also quite formidable characters.

It seemed the Demon Race had already thought of a countermeasure for this Innate Sword Body.

With these two helping, the situation was indeed hard to call.

The Demon Race had pushed their advantage of having large numbers to the extreme; after all, they had been developing in other regions for so long and had also absorbed quite a few people from other areas.

At this moment, Jing Huan only had one thought in his heart, which was also the wish he wanted to realize most.

That was to eliminate this Li Yi no matter what.

Otherwise, this Li Yi might become his Heart Demon in the future, accompanying him for the rest of his life.

He absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen.

Jing Huan now deeply understood the gap between himself and Li Yi; he hadn't expected that after cultivating for this long, it was still the same.

It hadn't had much of an effect.

It did allow him to do more than before, but it was of no use.

He still couldn't defeat this Innate Sword Body.
