Villain Master, my disciples all want to backstab me

Bai Yuan suddenly stood up his cat ears, and his eyes shrank into a thin line like a cat's. He passed through the obstruction of the heavy smoke and saw the scene deep in the smoke.

That Elder Shentu...

Still alive!!!

At this moment, this guy's figure became much clearer, as if the "mosaic" that had been lingering on his body had been torn off by the sword just now and the [Thunder Pearl] earlier, causing his entire body to switch from a blurred state to a high-definition state, revealing an old and ugly face.

He is obviously not young anymore.

The skin is wrinkled and looks like a mangy dog ​​in human form, with no image at all.

He was wearing a black and red robe with intricate patterns, as if it had just been fished out of a pool of blood.

The whole person exudes an air of vicissitudes of life.

But compared to all that, the most obvious feature was the black, bird-shaped mark on this creature's bald head. It vaguely resembled a crow. Next to it was what looked like a small branch.

——Shentu Jackdaw.

The name flashed through Bai Yuan's mind.

This name doesn't appear in the main story of "Asking the Immortal." Instead, it briefly appears once or twice in several official DLC trailers, along with a silhouette that looks similar to him.

However, neither the official announcement nor the revelations of some powerful figures on the forum have revealed any further information. People only speculate that this guy might be an elder of the Shentu family.

did not expect……

He is actually an old monster in the Return to Void Realm from the latter clan!

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Shentu Jackdaw laughed.

Compared to just now, he undoubtedly looks a little embarrassed now.

The sword had already ripped a large gash through his black and red robe, and a similarly shallow bloodstain etched across his chest. Thick, crimson blood oozed from the wound and dripped onto the ground.

"It's been a long time since I've been hurt... You should be proud enough to be able to hurt me."

"pity……"

"That's all you can do!!"

Shentu Jackdaw grinned, letting out a thunderous laugh. Then he changed the subject and said coldly, "A mere few Yuanying and Huashen cultivators, still wet behind the ears, dare to run wild on the territory of my Shentu family. You simply don't know your place! I see you don't even take me seriously!"

"Since that's the case, I'll let you all understand your own worth, and then all of you will be buried here!!"

While talking.

Shentu Jackdaw tore open his clothes, revealing a chest as shriveled as a stick, with seven copper nails embedded in it.

At this moment, Bai Yuan's eyelids twitched violently, and he felt an indescribable sense of crisis rising up!

"This guy……"

Bang-!

A muffled sound like thunder suddenly exploded.

Suddenly, one of the copper nails on Shentu Jackdaw's chest shattered, and a blood-red vortex emerged in midair. Then, as other copper nails flew off, it began to expand in circles... In just a moment, it had become a blood-red tornado that pierced the sky and earth, encompassing an area of ​​more than ten miles in radius!

That's right.

The scale of this "blood tornado" was not just a few dozen or a hundred feet, but more than ten miles! Tens of thousands of meters!

At first glance, it looked like the world-destroying natural disaster described in mythology, sweeping towards Bai Yuan and others!

Bang, bang, bang...

A huge attraction came over me.

It pulled a large number of houses, buildings, trees, bricks and stones around it into the sky and merged into the blood-colored tornado.

Bai Yuan and others had to gather their magic power and try their best to resist the oncoming impact, while at the same time retreating backwards to avoid being sucked into the tearing force of the blood-colored tornado.

Moreover, the faces of countless wronged souls and evil spirits emerged from the tornado, opened their mouths, and let out extremely shrill wails.

The tornado was several thousand meters high and several thousand meters in diameter, but despite its huge scale, there were few open spaces. At first glance, there were densely packed skulls and human faces everywhere, with empty eye sockets and mouths connected together, just like a Jingguan!

Among them, some familiar-looking figures appeared in the sight of several people.

Bai Yuan felt that they looked familiar because she had met some of them as a player in her previous life.

And Jiang Rao felt familiar because...

"aunt!"

"Uncle!"

"besides……"

Jiang Rao suddenly opened her eyes wide, her face showing horror.

Chapter 250 [Shura Ghost Face]

As descendants of the Jiang family, it is natural for the Jiang family to not know those relatives who are of the same clan as themselves.

Although the Jiang family had been destroyed for twenty years, Jiang Rao still often dreamed of the dead clansmen in the middle of the night. Their voices and smiles were as clear and warm as when they were still alive.

But now.

These faces appeared in this bloody tornado!

They seemed not to have completely lost consciousness - or rather, Shentu Jackdaw deliberately let them remain conscious, because only when they were relatively sober and endured all kinds of pain and torture could they generate a steady stream of negative emotions, thus providing nourishment for Shentu Jackdaw's cultivation.

and so.

This blood-red storm that pierced through the heavens and earth was the reason for his astonishing momentum. Even if one only saw it from afar, one would feel a chill run through their body, as if they were witnessing a scene from hell.

——Speaking of which, Shentu Jackdaw's cultivation method was somewhat similar to the [Twin Love Poison] Bai Yuan had previously given Ye Shuang'er. However, the latter's usage was more sinister, cruel, and unscrupulous, which would horrify anyone with a conscience.

As for Jiang Rao...

She was originally from the Jiang family. In that fleeting glimpse just now, she had a brief eye contact with a clan member she once knew, and saw the pain in the latter's eyes. So at this moment, her whole body was trembling, and her heart felt like it was being crushed by a big hand, and she had an urge to vomit blood.

“Beast!!”

"The eight great ancient cultivation clans... and the descendants of famous families, actually committed such a cruel and inhumane thing! They are even worse than the devil!"

"What kind of elder is Shentu? He's simply not a human being!!"

Jiang Rao was filled with resentment and was in extreme sadness and anger. Even the five-star map behind him was quietly covered with a layer of blood.

Qingluo did not have a deep understanding of this emotion. After all, she had not been here long and her understanding of the life stories of her two junior sisters was only superficial.

But just because she couldn't empathize didn't mean Qingluo could calmly accept the scene before her. At that moment, the daughter of the Divine Phoenix opened her eyes wide, a blazing fire burning within her chest. She wished she could kill Shentu Jackdaw immediately, ending the heinous crimes he had committed and bringing relief to those tragic souls.

As for Ye Shuang'er...

This little girl had spent a long time with Jiang Rao and had similar past experiences. She had even been to the Jiang family compound with Bai Yuan and had saved Jiang Cheng, so she knew something about the Jiang family. At this moment, her intelligence was at its peak, and she guessed the reason for Jiang Rao's anger. She immediately puffed out her cheeks, revealing an expression of shared hatred for the enemy.

"Oh my, the Shentu family is so evil!"

"Second Senior Sister, calm down first. Don't act rashly, or that guy will take advantage of you!"

the other side.

"……what?"

Shentu Hanya frowned, clearly noticing Jiang Rao.

It was only then that this fellow took the time to glance at Jiang Rao. His gaze lingered on the [Dayan Five Elements Wheel] for a few seconds, and then he grinned and said, "I was wondering who it was. It turns out to be the remnant of the Jiang family who was kidnapped from the Cangwu County area.

"You were lucky enough to escape when the Jiang family was destroyed. Instead of hiding in the gutter like a rat, you came back to seek revenge on my Shentu family... You really don't know what you're talking about."

"In that case, I will show my kindness and personally send you to reunite with your family!!"

With the last sentence.

The blood-red vortex that pierced through the heavens and earth exploded! Then it turned into an overwhelming blood-red wave, rushing towards Bai Yuan and his group!

"……kill!!"

Bai Yuan snapped his fingers and a golden dice popped out, then swung his sword forward!

Although she now understood the gap between herself and the person before her, and knew that the outcome of this battle would likely be heavy casualties, or even annihilation, she still had no choice but to do her utmost to fight to the death.

Perhaps, when things are beyond her control, Ji Lingyun will choose the right opportunity to take action and provide them with support.

Or maybe...

This time, Bai Yuan pulled out another trump card along with [Qingyinling]—a trump card she would never want to use under normal circumstances. This could be the key to turning the situation around!

boom--! !

Boom boom——!!!

A loud roar like the collapse of the sky and the splitting of the earth was heard!

At this moment, the figures of Bai Yuan and Qing Luo turned into two intertwined meteors, constantly streaking across the night sky, launching attacks containing the power of laws.

The star-tracking talisman array of [Galaxy Fantasy Veil] and the counterattack effect of [Rainbow Clothes] were pushed to their limit at this moment. Abilities originally intended for defense were transformed into the most sturdy killing weapons, allowing Bai Yuan and Qing Luo to maintain a level with this Return to Void Realm enemy.

Ye Shuang'er, Jiang Rao, Bai Hu, and Ji Tingxue launched their offensive from a slightly outer location, trying to help Bai and Qing share the pressure.

The cultivation in the white tiger's body is being continuously absorbed by Bai Yuan, allowing her cultivation level to remain at the ninth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm for a longer period of time.

Facing their full-scale attack.

Shentu Jackdaw also stretched out his arms with all his might, gathering the seemingly endless spiritual power belonging to the Return to Void Realm, and urged the monstrous blood-colored tornado to expand further, already drawing in the space within a hundred miles around it.

The tentacles formed by countless resentful souls that emerged from the blood-colored tornado caused a strong wind that spread all the way to thousands of miles away, almost covering half of the Shentu family's secret realm within the radiation range of this blood-colored storm!

Even Yun Wuya and others who were in another corner of the secret realm could feel gusts of howling wind blowing past them.

Not to mention Bai Yuan and others who are near the eye of the storm.

Even with the protection of [Galaxy Fantasy Veil] and [Rainbow Clothes], Bai Yuan still felt the pain of her entire body falling apart with every collision. The spiritual power in her body was repeatedly squeezed, and she even felt that she could not maintain her current queen form.

After reaching the Spiritual Transformation Realm, it is theoretically very unlikely that one will run out of spiritual energy. This is because cultivators at this level have already created a world within themselves, connecting to the outside world and exchanging resources, thus obtaining a continuous supply of spiritual energy.

However, because Shentu Hanya was too powerful, Bai Yuan and the others were basically in a state of overloaded combat. They constantly squeezed their dantian and meridians to generate more spiritual power, and then released this spiritual power, so that they could barely resist and deal with Shentu Hanya.

In the short term, both sides can maintain the situation.

But as time went on, I gradually began to be unable to hold on.

Even Bai Yuan and Qing Luo, who theoretically have the highest cultivation levels, are like this, let alone Jiang Rao and others.

It is worth mentioning that……

Ji Tingxue was surprisingly suppressed by Shentu Jackdaw, and had been in danger several times. It was unclear whether Ji Lingyun felt the timing was not right, or if she had truly encountered some problem and was unable to make a move, but Bai Yuan had a bad feeling.

"...Master, this guy's strength seems a bit too strong."

"If this continues, we will all die here!"

"Rather than being completely wiped out, I'll unleash the divine phoenix blood within me and perish together with this fellow. You can use this opportunity to find a way to escape!"

Qingluo finally took advantage of the break in the attack and sent a message to Baiyuan at a very fast speed.

“…No!”

Bai Yuan immediately rejected the idea: "When it comes to self-destruction, it should be done by me, the master. How can I let you disciples do it for me?"

"...?"

A question mark slowly emerged in Qingluo's mind.

Before the master and disciple could communicate more.

Then I heard a "whoosh" sound!

A giant spear, formed from the interwoven bodies of tens of thousands of wronged souls, emerged from the blood-red tornado and, in an instant, reached Bai Yuan with lightning speed. When the blood-red spear collided with the Star Track Array, an indescribable force surged forward, shattering the already dimmed starlight from the array!

"!!!"

This attack had obviously been brewing for a long time.

It happened to be launched when Bai Yuan and Qing Luo had exhausted their old strength and had not yet generated new strength, and the first attack was a thundering blow.

As the starlight shattered, Bai Yuan and Qing Luo attacked at the same time, summoning their spiritual power to resist, but they were still swept away by the blood-red giant spear. Their bodies flew across thousands of meters like a cannonball and then slammed heavily to the ground!

But this was not the end, because almost at the same time when Bai Yuan and the other person landed on the ground, the remaining huge force exploded, directly tearing the surrounding ground apart, creating a deep pit that was bottomless at a glance, and spider-web-like cracks spread around it like flowing water!

boom--! ! ! !

Because of the difference in propagation speed, the deafening roar was a few seconds slower than the image before it reached the ground.
