Cultivating immortality relies on spatial abilities; defying fate to become the protagonist.

Chapter 255

Gu Shihan and Xing Bai exchanged a glance. Although they both felt a little worried deep down, there was no sign of backing down in their eyes.

Xingbai said in a low voice, "Hanhan, we need to finish this quickly. If things get bad, we'll use the Red Lotus Karmic Fire right away!"

Gu Shihan nodded slightly in agreement. Then, she shouted, "Hmph, you audacious demonic cultivators! Instead of staying in the Demon Realm, you dare to come to our Immortal Realm and cause such chaos! Today, you will not leave alive! Take this!"

Before she finished speaking, Gu Shihan had already flashed forward like an arrow, rushing towards the demonic cultivator. She brandished her long sword, unleashing a series of sharp sword energies that directly attacked her opponent.

Xingbai also unleashed her own magic without hesitation, and a burst of light appeared, which combined with Gu Shihan's attack to form a powerful force to launch an attack on the demonic cultivator.

Seeing this, the other cultivators around also unleashed their own spells and joined the battle.

The demonic cultivators were indeed incredibly powerful. After just a few moves, Gu Shihan and the others gradually found themselves at a disadvantage.

Faced with the overwhelming onslaught of the demonic cultivators, Gu Shihan could only grit her teeth and struggle to hold on.

Gu Shihan stared intently at the demonic cultivator before her, not daring to be the slightest bit careless or negligent.

Because she could clearly feel the powerful aura emanating from the demonic cultivator, the oppressive feeling almost suffocated her.

After observation and assessment, I was surprised to find that this demonic cultivator's strength had at least reached the peak of the late-stage Celestial Immortal realm! In comparison, I was only at the late-stage Celestial Immortal realm, and it was quite difficult for me to withstand the opponent's attacks.

Turning to look at the other cultivators, they saw that after only a few rounds of fighting with the demonic cultivator, they were all defeated and knocked to the ground by the demonic cultivator's powerful strength.

These cultivators were coughing up blood, severely injured, and lying on the ground, unable to get up and completely powerless to fight back.

Time is of the essence, and there is no room for further hesitation! If this demonic cultivator cannot be dealt with quickly, the other cultivators who came with him will likely face even more casualties.

Thinking of this, she did not hesitate at all, her eyes were firm and decisive, and she quickly conveyed her thoughts to Xingbai beside her.

With a slight movement of his lips, he spoke through a special telepathic technique: "Xingbai, it's up to you to cover me from now on!" Although his voice was soft, it clearly reached Xingbai's ears.

Xingbai nodded slightly, indicating that she understood her intention. Gu Shihan's delicate body swayed, and her figure flashed out like a ghost.

Gu Shihan gripped her longsword tightly with both hands, feigning a seemingly fierce feint, and launched a swift attack on the demonic cultivator opposite her.

Upon seeing this, the demonic cultivator tensed up and dared not be negligent in the slightest, immediately using all his skills to deal with the situation.

Just as the demonic cultivator was concentrating on defending against Gu Shihan's attack, Gu Shihan suddenly twisted her wrist nimbly, and the long sword she had been holding was now gone, replaced by a blazing, intensely hot red lotus karmic fire.

The crimson karmic fire, like a ferocious and violent fire dragon, shot out from Gu Shihan's hand with bared fangs and claws, carrying a world-destroying momentum, and rushed straight towards the black-robed man not far away with lightning speed.

"Ah! What kind of will-o'-the-wisp is this?!" A terrified scream suddenly rang out, echoing throughout the entire battlefield.

The man in black robes clearly hadn't expected Gu Shihan to have such a powerful backup plan, and was momentarily panicked, but it was too late to dodge.

In an instant, the crimson karmic fire struck the black-robed man's body fiercely. The flames mercilessly licked every inch of his skin, crackling and popping.

The screams of the black-robed man echoed in everyone's ears, sending chills down their spines.

In less than ten breaths, the black-robed man was completely engulfed by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire.

The fire grew larger and larger, as if it would burn the entire world to ashes.

As a gentle breeze swept by, the figure in black robes vanished completely, leaving only a pile of ashes slowly drifting in the air.

Witnessing this breathtaking scene, Lin Feng and the others standing to the side were all stunned.

Their eyes widened, their mouths slightly agape, their faces filled with disbelief.

My heart pounded violently, as if struck by a heavy hammer, almost leaping out of my throat.

What was happening before their eyes was so shocking that they were unable to recover for a long time.

Prior to this, although they already knew that Gu Shihan possessed certain abilities, in the deepest corner of their hearts, they still harbored a slight, unspeakable contempt for this female cultivator.

After all, this is a dangerous place fraught with peril and traps everywhere! In such a harsh environment, how could a delicate woman possibly shoulder the heavy responsibility of leading everyone out of danger?
Ultimately, doesn't it still depend on these men to give it their all?
At this moment, the scene before them was like a raging storm, shattering their deeply ingrained beliefs.

Gu Shihan moved nimbly, as light and agile as a swallow dancing gracefully.

She gripped the Seven Star Silk Sword tightly in her hand, its blade gleaming with dazzling light, like a brilliant star in the night sky.

What's even more shocking is that she actually possessed the formidable trump card of Red Lotus Karmic Fire.

As Gu Shihan unleashed each move, the boundless power of her sword energy surged forth like a surging tide.

The raging red lotus fire resembled a gigantic, dazzling red lotus, so beautiful it was almost dreamlike, yet it could easily incinerate everything in the world.

Even the surrounding air was affected by this intense heat, appearing to be scorched and distorted, presenting a bizarre state.

Witnessing this scene, the last trace of contempt that Lin Feng and the others had felt vanished in the blink of an eye, like the morning mist meeting the blazing sun.

Instead, they felt a deep sense of awe, a profound reverence that transcended their very souls. They no longer held any contempt for others, but only admiration and a sense of inadequacy.

The way they looked at Gu Shihan was no longer filled with even the slightest doubt or disdain; instead, it was filled with sincere respect and heartfelt deference.

On the other side, Xingbai was studying the restrictive mechanisms blocking the way. With his fingers flying, he continuously cast complex spells, and the restrictive mechanisms hidden in the dark were broken one by one.

After some effort, the restrictive mechanisms were broken one by one. Seeing that everyone had recovered enough, Gu Shihan led them to the legendary mining area.
