Chapter 291: 289. The Epic Battle of East Lake (3/4) Boom!
The stone spike was snapped with a claw, interrupting its forward momentum.
"A Divine Profound Realm Great Demon!"
Ge Hua and Nan Meng both exclaimed in surprise, then exchanged a glance as their expressions turned serious. Because the Divine Profound Great Demon had emerged, the one orchestrating things from behind was likely not far away. However, the appearance of this Divine Profound Great Demon felt odd to them; compared to the Half-Step Divine Profound Great Demon behind it, it seemed too insignificant.
But strange is strange.
The Divine Profound Great Demon coming out is perfect!
Though demons in the same realm have powers much greater than the Human Race, both of them had the Vortex Map, which amplifies their strength to nearly match those of the demons, especially since there were two of them now.
Two against one, victory is certain.
Just as the Divine Profound Realm began to clash, Wen Ping decided against watching from a close distance. He patted Qin Shan and flew towards Yunlan Mountain.
Watching from afar is enough.
Upon seeing Wen Ping suddenly turn back, Hua Zixun abandoned the thought of going down the mountain.
Just as he intended to ask why Wen Ping had returned, he focused his gaze and realized the dog that went with Wen Ping hadn’t returned. Scanning the battlefield, he saw the dog’s silhouette, shockingly engaged in battle with the two experts.
"Is that dog so strong?"
He had taken trips up and down with it, always assuming it was just a watchdog mutt.
While stunned in thought, a loud noise reached him!
Boom!
A massive blade shadow struck in the city, and the Mountain Dog raised its claws at Ge Hua and Nan Meng. The claw shadow instantly intertwined with the green vine released by Nan Meng’s Vein Technique. However, neither could overpower the other; the vine couldn’t retreat the claw shadow, nor could the claw shadow fly away the obstructing vine.
Vein Qi rampaged instantly.
The ripples swept across Cangwu City like a turbulent wind.
Ge Hua naturally wouldn’t give the Mountain Dog any freeness, immediately slashing another blade after a missed one.
"Take my blade!"
But as this blade swung down, a crimson iron chain suddenly appeared from nowhere. At that moment, Ge Hua felt a tightening in his heart, as the sweeping crimson chain exuded a sense of danger not carried by the previous claw shadow.
If this blade continued its swing, the chain would likely fall on him.
But withdrawing would mean missing the joint opportunity to defeat the Divine Profound Realm Great Demon.
Nevertheless, he decisively chose the former.
How could he not understand that the sneak attack must be by another Divine Profound Realm?
Ge Hua immediately withdrew his blade, causing the yellow Meridian Gate to tremble alongside it.
Bang!
Vein Qi Shield.
Bang!
But the crimson chain swept down, still sending Ge Hua flying, like an arrow leaving the bowstring, sweeping him a thousand meters away, burying him into the soil, creating a giant pit nearly a hundred meters in size before halting.
Ge Hua’s mount, seeing its master in that state, immediately flapped its wings away.
It emitted a sound like a baby’s cry.
Upon struggling to his feet and witnessing the scene, Ge Hua shouted loudly, "Come back!"
But this call came too late; when Ge Hua leaped out of the pit, the crimson chain had already pierced through its heart like a sharp sword, then it was swung in the air several times, discarded.
Half-Step Divine Profound Great Demon, dead in one encounter.
Ge Hua felt heartache.
A mount of a Half-Step Divine Profound level—where would he find another?
However, this scene falling before the eyes of Ge Hua and Nan Meng heightened their vigilance, and they didn’t pay heed to the mount’s death anymore.
"This is the Divine Profound Realm behind the Immortal Sect!"
"It’s very likely."
The two exchanged a glance, then looked towards the nearby roof.
But what stood there wasn’t a person.
Clearly a skeleton enveloped in blue flames; it bore no eyes, yet both felt its gaze upon them, sending a chill through them.
From afar, the observers of all this were astounded.
The group of Biyue Piaoling also promptly climbed Yunlan Mountain, aiming to observe this extraordinary battle from a vantage point.
Double Divine Profound pressing against the city, yet the Immortal Sect dispatched two Divine Profounds as well.
This foundation was stronger than ordinary Three-star Sects.
"Go for it!"
"Kill them!"
