Over a thousand miles away from the battlefield, on a certain plain.
The originally empty ground suddenly flickered with a large area of mysterious star runes.
Moments later, spirit light surged, and numerous Tai Shang Sect disciples appeared here.
"We’re out!"
Many Tai Shang Sect disciples who emerged from the battlefield via the Star Shifting Formation breathed a sigh of relief.
"That was close, if it had been a moment later, we might not have gotten out..."
"I wonder how Master Ye, Elder Nie, and the others are doing."
"Don’t worry, the masters have strong abilities, and they used the Eight Gates Formation to stall for so long, it shouldn’t be difficult for them to handle those from the Demon Sect!"
"..."
Numerous Tai Shang Sect disciples engaged in discussion, each with considerable concern in their hearts.
Among the crowd, the one responsible for overseeing them was a gray-haired elder of the Three Suns Realm.
The gray-haired elder took out a pre-prepared talisman and used the Sun and Moon Array beneath his feet to survey the surroundings.
"Thankfully, there doesn’t seem to be anything unusual in between."
The gray-haired elder nodded slightly, turning to the many Tai Shang Sect disciples.
"Then, let’s go..."
"Boom, boom, boom...!"
Suddenly, the ground beneath the formation under everyone’s feet cracked open and sank, with an enormous blood bowl mouth bursting through from underground!
Before everyone could react, in the blink of an eye, it swallowed over thirty densely standing Tai Shang Sect disciples on the ground.
Ears ringing, all eyes turned to see that it was indeed a hideous demon beast with pig-like form and a green face with red eyes!
The gray-haired elder’s pupils contracted suddenly, immediately awakening and shouting loudly: "Quickly scatter!!"
"Run quickly!"
"It’s a fiend!!"
All the Tai Shang Sect disciples were terrified to death, fleeing hastily in all directions!
Meanwhile, the pig demon, corpulent in body yet incomparably agile in movement, kicked the ground and rushed with open jaws among the many Tai Shang Sect disciples!
"Bang, bang, bang...!"
Blood mist exploded, severed limbs flew!
Large numbers of Tai Shang Sect disciples were continuously knocked apart, shattered, and eaten!
"Help me!!"
"None of the sword techniques can break its skin... ah!"
"Junior Sister... no!"
Screams echoed incessantly, the pig-shaped demon decimated Tai Shang Sect’s disciples like a tiger among sheep.
Their counterattacks landed on it but had hardly any effect!
In an instant, over a hundred met a gruesome end!
"You beast! Stop for me!!"
The gray-haired elder’s eyes almost burst, hastily took out a three-foot treasure sword, and performed Man and Sword as One, transforming into an unparalleled sword light to slash at it.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
The sword light flashed continuously, slicing around the pig demon.
The pig demon had tough skin and thick flesh, but under such sword light, scars were swiftly cut on its body, emitting low howls.
"Uncle Li has held back that fierce beast!"
"Go! Let’s hurry and leave!"
"Uncle Li... hmm?!"
Just as the Tai Shang Sect disciples flew some distance away, the sound of sword light suddenly ceased.
Hastily turning back, they saw the gray-haired elder, who had just slashed multiple wounds on the pig demon, now gripped like a puppet toy by the pig demon!
The gray-haired elder’s eyes lost their divine light, fearfully staring at the pig demon’s blood bowl mouth slowly opening wide and drawing closer...
"No...!"
"Crunch!"
The pig demon bit down, directly snapping the top half of the gray-haired elder.
Afterward, it tossed him into its mouth, chewing both halves together!
