Are you really trying to cultivate immortality? Something feels off.

In an instant, the deadly thunder and rain were mostly dismantled by the green wind, and the lightning runes on the poisonous climbing rocks eroded and shattered them!

After several waves of attacks were completely neutralized, genuine surprise finally appeared in the woman's eyes.

"Interesting," she laughed, even clapping her hands together lightly. "People from Penglai Realm have come too—the Withered Glory Spirit Poison, the Daughter of the Jade Serpent… Interesting, very interesting!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman's fighting spirit surged, and the lightning power around her suddenly increased several times.

Xie Weixing's lips twitched: "Is this guy crazy?"

Yu Xintang: "I've wanted to say this for a long time."

Nie Zhao: "Why haven't Master and Senior Uncle arrived yet?"

Shen Chunri: "Is that old man no longer going to support us?"

Tan Suiting sighed, "...Let's fight first."

The woman raised her hand to gather spiritual power, no longer probing. She formed a hand seal, and thunderclouds poured down from above her head, condensing into a bolt of divine lightning as thick as a pillar, its light extremely refined.

The battle situation was instantly pushed into a dangerous predicament.

"Senior Sister!" Xie Weixing quickly dodged. "Attack from the left flank, keep your distance and don't get close. Use your strongest attack!"

Without hesitation, Nie Zhao raised his hand: "Wildfire Scorching the Sky - Crimson Lotus Karmic Lock!"

The phoenix mark between her brows shone brightly, her bloodline power fully awakened, and crimson-gold flames around her surged several feet, precisely locking onto the woman's dantian spiritual core, which was the very source of her cultivation.

"Dragon Palace!" Xie Weixing activated the second form of the Holy Seal Spiritual Technique, Dawn Break, a crescent moon slash piercing the sky, "Spatial Displacement Locks Her Form, Imprison Her!"

Tan Suiting sheathed the Xuan Sword with a backhand flick of his wrist and uttered, "Nine Locks of Void Binding!"

The spatial lock suddenly closed, and the boundless cracks solidified into a sealed iron cage, tightly imprisoning the woman's body and making it impossible for her to move at all.

Xie Weixing snorted coldly, "Little snake, beat her to a pulp!"

Shen Chunri, who had been lurking in the shadows, waiting for his chance, curled his lips slightly and finally made his move: "Azure Serpent and Jade Mist, Myriad Poisonous Vine!"

To regard her as an ordinary medicine cultivator would be a grave mistake!

Countless emerald vines, laced with deadly poison, swept away in a frenzy.

The spiritual energy circulating around the woman suddenly slowed down. The originally surging lightning power was interfered with by the poisonous miasma and spatial rifts, causing her meridians to become slightly numb. The phoenix fire that was about to fall on her head distracted her attention.

Nie Zhao's eyes narrowed; it was this fleeting flaw!

Xie Weixing narrowed her eyes, sensing something was wrong: "Senior Sister! Don't go over there!"

Nie Zhao paused for a moment, not wanting to miss such an opportunity, and without hesitation flapped his wings, instantly closing in: "Nine Flames of Southern Brightness, Vermilion Bird Purification—!"

The mysterious sword in his hand transformed into a blazing phoenix blade that stretched across the heavens and earth.

The woman's expression remained unchanged, and she slightly curled the corners of her lips.

We've been waiting for you to get too close!

"Nie Zhao—!" Xie Weixing shouted in a panic, forcing himself to calm down quickly. His eyes turned cold in the next moment. "Holy Seal Spiritual Technique, Third Form: Moon Cut!"

He joined his fingertips together, his left hand holding a pale silver crescent moon, while his right hand drew a sacred seal from above.

All the tactics he devised were never intended to actually defeat the opponent.

A master of the Tai Xu Realm is definitely not someone they can confront head-on; they must stall until Feng Jilan and Feng Yu arrive.

Nie Zhao, however, launched a direct and forceful attack.

This approach was outside his planned tactics; it was too reckless!

"Holy Seal Spiritual Technique," Xie Weixing gritted his teeth and chanted the incantation, his spiritual power rapidly depleting, "Slay Evil and Sever Falsehood, Moon Descends Holy Decree!"

The holy seal spiraled down from between the eyebrows to the fingertips, its lines forming a neat cross-shaped pattern, radiating a cold, frosty moonlight.

The woman raised her hand to destroy Nie Zhao's Phoenix Fire attack, and chuckled, "Virtual Thunderstorm."

A pale purple ball of lightning streaked through the air, moving so fast that it was just a trail of light. There was no time to react before it crashed into Nie Zhao's shoulder, exploding into rings of fine lightning patterns. Violent currents surged wildly along his skin.

Shen Chunri's eyes widened, her voice almost ripping apart: "No!! Senior Sister—"

The force of the thunderous explosion shoved Nie Zhao backward, sending her flying like a kite with a broken string, spitting out a mouthful of blood, her expression one of utter despair and despair.

"Splittering Wind Bone!" Yu Xintang's figure flashed, so fast that she almost turned into a blue thread, and steadily caught the falling Nie Zhao.

Nie Zhao had already fainted, having been defeated in a single move. Her brows were furrowed, her entire body was covered in lightning, and she was convulsing and trembling involuntarily.

Yu Xintang frowned angrily, her eyes blazing with fury. She gathered a great deal of spiritual power in her palm and looked up at him hatefully.

"You! You injured someone from my Feng Hua Sect!" Shen Chunri's eyes widened sharply, and without hesitation, he shouted, "Transform into a snake!"

A flash of emerald light appeared, and a faint snake shadow appeared behind her. The ground shook, and the hem of her clothes was even torn by the surging spiritual energy, revealing the girl's fair wrist, with pale green spiritual energy swirling around her.

One of the Jade Serpent's trump cards, a desperate technique that only direct descendants can possess: Serpent Transformation.

Only those with the bloodline of ancient divine beasts possess this power. This is the Bishe family's life-saving technique, as well as their desperate technique. It involves the use of bloodline power, which consumes a great deal of spiritual energy, and naturally, its power is also immense.

"How dare you hurt my senior sister!" Shen Chunri roared, her vertical pupils widening in fury, a vibrant green almost entirely devoid of any other color. "Even if I have to self-destruct today, I'll drag you down with me!!!"

"Little snake! Calm down!" Xie Weixing was extremely depleted of spiritual energy, feeling dizzy and lightheaded. He bit his lip hard until it bled to stay conscious.

He looked up at the woman, his fingers tracing the blood from her neck: "The fourth move of the Holy Seal Spiritual Technique, Prajna Inquiry—"

In an instant, the world changed dramatically, even the woman's dark golden lightning layer loosened, and a chill brought by a burst of light permeated the entire area.

Xie Weixing gritted his teeth and used his last move, which drained all his spiritual power: "Fight her to the death!"

"This is outrageous." Tan Suiting's eyes were sharp as he spoke coldly. He unleashed the full power of his dual spiritual roots, and the power of space crisscrossed, instantly distorting and dislocating the entire void. Top-grade lightning spiritual power surged out. "Tai Xu Realm, I don't believe you can emerge unscathed."

"Azure Mirror Locks the Heavens," Tan Suiting coldly raised his hand, "Godslayer Slaughter—"

Several forces came together.

boom---!!!

A deafening roar echoed throughout the entire back mountain.

As the smoke and dust dissipated, the lightning patterns around the woman shattered, and her aura became slightly disordered. She raised her hand to press down on her numb dantian, a look of astonished shock in her eyes.

She has already reached the Great Void Realm, possesses a top-grade lightning spiritual root, and has dominated the world for many years. Few among her peers can rival her, let alone juniors.

Even those at the Nascent Soul stage couldn't withstand three moves from her, let alone those at the Golden Core stage.

I've certainly had my eyes opened today.

These five juniors in front of me are powerful and daring. They unleash a barrage of attacks with different attributes, and they coordinate perfectly.

Not to mention her, even Feng Jilan, who is in the late stage of the Taixu Realm, should not be underestimated as a threat.

If the phoenix hadn't impulsively gotten close, these people might have actually been able to control her...

At first glance, the talismans they were holding were likely used for covert communication.

She had never even seen such a talisman before; it was simply exquisite.
