Miss Demon Lord will never surrender to the Saint

But after all, it is one of the four legendary beasts, so it is not too surprising that it caused such a commotion.

"That's the Azure Dragon. I think it's normal even if it absorbs twice as much spiritual energy." Ye Qiuhan couldn't understand what Qian Lin was calculating, but she could hear the surprise in Qian Lin's tone.

"I originally thought she was just joking. Who would have thought that opening a door would really require such a large amount of spiritual energy?" Qian Lin put down the pen in his hand, looked at the door in the distance that seemed to be getting more and more solid, and took a deep breath, "Next, it's the real decisive battle."

The two sides will no longer be divided into attacking and defending sides, but will go all out to fight for control of this secret realm. The people of Yao Chi are not interested in the things in the secret realm, but they will never allow Hehuan Valley to control the things inside.

Preventing Hehuan Valley from controlling the secret realm is Yao Chi’s first priority now.

"I hope we can get some support before the secret realm opens." Qian Lin whispered softly.

With Yao Chi's current strength, it is too difficult to stop Hehuan Valley from entering the secret realm. The Grandmaster-level combat power can barely hold the stalemate, but the number difference between the two sides in terms of combat power below the Grandmaster level is too great.

Even if a large number of low-level members of Hehuan Valley lined up to rush into the secret realm, Yao Chi could not stop them.

There are tens of thousands of low-level cultivators, and it is impossible for a dozen crickets from Yao Chi to stop them.

"I'm afraid it's too late." Ye Qiuhan looked at the sky, his expression not relaxed. "Based on the current speed, it won't be long before this door is completely opened."

The time now is actually just approaching evening.

"There's no other way. We have to go ahead with it. We can't really let the evil take control of this secret realm." Qian Lin counted the remaining combat supplies in the storage bag. It was more than enough to support a high-intensity battle in a short period of time.

"You should still have some Shengsheng Pills, so I won't share them with you."

"How could a Yao Chi disciple who goes out on a mission not have Shengsheng Pills? Don't worry." Ye Qiuhan took out his Shengsheng Pills and showed them to Qian Lin, comforting him, "Don't be so serious. It's just Hehuan Valley. There's nothing to be afraid of. I'm also very powerful."

Calling upon the Saint to possess him, Ye Qiuhan felt that he could at least kill a mid-stage Grandmaster from the Hehuan Valley alone.

"Don't say such things before the big battle. Be careful of being tricked by the people from Hehuan Valley. During the last conference..."

"I was careless that time! Don't talk about that!"

"Okay, okay, we have to be careful anyway. I don't want to be distracted by saving you while I'm fighting someone else."

"I know, and it's hard to say who will save whom at that time."

……

"Master Yuesheng, the door to the secret realm is about to open."

"Well, how are our people preparing?" Yue Sheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, opened his eyes and replied in a cold voice.

The Body Tempering Realm cultivator who was kneeling on one knee on the ground bowed his head and replied respectfully: "Everything is ready. We just need to wait for the secret realm to open. Our people can rush into the secret realm immediately!"

After hearing the report from her subordinates, Yue Sheng showed a look of satisfaction. She pushed the ground with her hands and floated up from the ground as if she had no weight.

"The Yao Chi people will not let us enter the secret realm easily, but they are too few in number to stop us." Looking at the location of the Yao Chi monks in the distance, Yue Sheng sneered twice, "I will work with others to stop the Yao Chi Grandmaster. I hope you won't let me down."

"I will definitely live up to Master Yue Sheng's trust!"

"Very good. If you succeed in gaining control of this secret realm for Hehuan Valley this time, I will definitely report to the sect leader and she will not treat you unfairly." Yue Sheng was very satisfied with the reaction of her subordinate. She stretched out her hand and used her spiritual energy to lift the subordinate up from the ground.

Then, she turned her head and looked at the door in the sky that seemed to have completely solidified, and gave the last order, "Wake up everyone and prepare to enter the secret realm."

"Yes!"

……

Boom...boom...boom...

Dull banging sounds continued to come from the sky, as if something was knocking on the door in the sky.

All the monks felt a heavy pressure that made it difficult for them to breathe. They looked up at the same place, waiting for the final moment to arrive.

The blood-red vortex of spiritual energy has been gradually shrinking, and it is injecting all its remaining spiritual energy into the blue light column, contributing the final bit of strength to the opening of the door.

As the blood-colored vortex shrank, the green light that penetrated the sky and the earth became thicker and thicker. What was even more frightening was that a dragon-shaped shadow suddenly appeared under the green light.

The green dragon shadow meandered upwards along the green column of light and soon arrived in front of the door high in the sky.

'Roar! '

With a roar as loud as a bell, the giant dragon pressed down the tightly closed door in front of it with its claws and forcefully pushed it open to both sides.

Blue lightning appeared from the door and blasted towards the dragon, and after roaring for most of the day, the dark clouds in the sky finally released thunder.

The blue and white lightning bombarded the dragon's body, leaving wounds all over it, but the dragon did not retreat, but continued its actions.

The green light healed its wounds and attacked the door together with it.

Finally, the dragon opened the door a little.

Pure green light poured out from the gate, and in just a moment, all the monks present found that they were surrounded by spiritual energy again.

But this time, all the spiritual energy is of wood attribute.

The appearance of these spiritual energies gave the Qingguang and the giant dragon, which were originally somewhat powerless, the ability to continue opening the door. After successfully opening the door a crack, the giant dragon continued its efforts and forced the door open completely under the thunder in the sky.

As the gate was completely opened by the giant dragon, a door-shaped entrance appeared in the sky, and the green light and the giant dragon disappeared at the same time as the entrance appeared.

The heavy pressure on all the monks disappeared, and everyone reacted immediately, shooting up into the sky like meteors and flying towards the gate in the sky.

The first ones they met were the fastest flying masters. As soon as Gu Xue and Yue Sheng met, they continued the unfinished battle from before, while the other masters, like last time, lined up and started to fight.

But the masters are not the protagonists on this battlefield. No master on either side can win quickly, and everyone’s goal is not to kill the other side, but to that secret realm.

At this time, the advantage of Hehuan Valley's large number of people was revealed. The dozen or so Body Tempering Realm disciples of Yao Chi were unable to stop the cultivators of Hehuan Valley and could only watch them rush towards the entrance of the secret realm.

257. The Reverend Arrives

Easy and simple, the leader of the Body Tempering Realm monks in Hehuan Valley was extremely excited. There were too few people in Yao Chi and there was no way to effectively block their advance.

And now, the entrance to the secret realm is right in front of him. It only takes a little time for him to be the first to enter the secret realm, seize control of the secret realm, gain the favor of the sect master, and reach the peak of his life!

I heard that those who are favored by the sect master will have the opportunity to spend a night with him!

Hahahaha, after hanging around in Hehuan Valley for so long, it’s finally time for me to come to the fore! The cultivator thought excitedly in his heart.

He could already imagine how much reward he would get and how many envious and jealous looks he would receive after completing this mission.

This is the success brought by hard work! You scumbags have the ability to be like me and gain control of such a secret realm for our Hehuan Valley. Do you have that ability?

No!

Only I, only I am the winner!

Hmm? Wait, what's that thing in front? It looks like... a person?

The Half-Step Grandmaster, who had not yet awakened from his fantasy of the future, looked at the strange figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, and his mind was confused for a moment.

And his failure to turn around at this time also doomed his fate.

He and his fantasies were pierced through by the mysterious figure's green lightning. With just one strike, the half-step grandmaster was crushed into dust.

When other monks from the Hehuan Valley saw this scene, some of the less courageous ones immediately stopped and planned to stand where they were to observe the situation first.

The other brave ones thought that they had more people and the enemy was only one person, and they couldn't kill them all in one move, so they rushed straight towards the entrance to the secret realm not far away.

But they soon proved the stupidity of this choice with their own fate.

Although there was only one person on the other side, he stood in front of the gate like an insurmountable high wall, destroying all the invading monks from the Hehuan Valley. The green thunder ignored everyone's defense, and every time a thunder fell, it would take a monk from the Hehuan Valley into hell.

"Wait, isn't that man our master? Why is he attacking us?" At this time, a sharp-eyed monk from the Hehuan Valley finally recognized who was blocking the entrance to the secret realm.

Similar face and clothing, except for the extra green energy dragon horns on the forehead and the translucent tail behind, isn't he the early Grandmaster who disappeared from Hehuan Valley earlier?

"I don't know, but I feel like he's not the person we know!" another monk from Hehuan Valley replied loudly.

The master standing in front of them had a dull look in his eyes and stiff movements, like a puppet being controlled.

Furthermore, the extra parts on his body seemed to tell everyone that this person was no longer a "human".

With dragon horns and dragon tail, he uses the power of thunder to guard the gate of the secret realm. It is very likely that this master's body was taken away by something and turned into a puppet.

What’s funny is that this grandmaster who has turned into a puppet seems to be even more powerful than before.

There were many charred marks on his body and he did not look in good condition. This gave the remaining monks from the Hehuan Valley a bold idea: could the giant dragon that had just opened the gate be it?

While the group of Body Tempering Realm warriors in Hehuan Valley were blocked by puppets and unable to advance, on the Grandmaster's battlefield, the Grandmaster-level warriors of both sides had already gone completely blood-thirsty.

Both Yao Chi and He Huan Valley had masters who were seriously injured and had to withdraw from the battlefield.

Gu Xue and Yue Sheng have fought from the sky to the ground, and then from the ground back to the sky. The two leaders of their respective forces have demonstrated abilities that are worthy of their status.

But Gu Xue is only a mid-stage Grandmaster after all. She may be able to fight against Yue Sheng, a veteran late-stage Grandmaster, for a short period of time, but if the time is prolonged, Gu Xue will definitely not be Yue Sheng's opponent.

"You can't hold on for much longer!" Yue Sheng's weapon was a long whip covered with barbs. If one was whipped by this whip, a large piece of flesh and blood would probably be torn off directly.

The long whip was looking for Gu Xue's weakness like a poisonous snake, but Gu Xue was no pushover. Her swordsmanship was flawless and she blocked all of Yue Sheng's attacks.

In the face of Yue Sheng's provocation, she only responded with a disdainful sneer.

"I will definitely hold on until you fail."

Gu Xue did not deny that she could not beat Yue Sheng, but her goal was not to defeat Yue Sheng, but to hold on until the support from the righteous path arrived.

Originally, she was a little anxious when she saw the Body Tempering Realm cultivators from Hehuan Valley rushing to the secret realm, but now, after seeing that all those Hehuan Valley cultivators were stopped by that mysterious man, Gu Xue was no longer anxious.

Let's just wait and see whose reinforcements arrive first.

"Oh, how shameless." Yue Sheng snorted in dissatisfaction. Now Hehuan Valley and Yaochi were indeed in a stalemate. Hehuan Valley's most powerful advantage in numbers was wiped out because of the gatekeeper who suddenly appeared in front of the entrance to the secret realm.

If it weren't for that guy, the only one that wouldn't be in a hurry now would be Hehuan Valley.

But everything he said now would be false. Yue Sheng knew that if he wanted to break the impasse, he could only go all out and defeat Gu Xue in the shortest time possible.

Otherwise, do we really have to bet that the reinforcements on our side will arrive faster than those from Yao Chi?

Although the clan leader and his men had already rushed to the East Territory for support not long ago, and the time was almost up, Yue Sheng felt that it would be better not to place hope on others at this time.

……

"I remember the Saint didn't say there was a gatekeeper in front of the secret realm, right?" In the chaotic battlefield, Qian Lin, who was trying to create minor troubles for the opponent's Grandmaster of Hehuan Valley, said to Ye Qiuhan beside him.

The situation was too chaotic right now, and no one would notice their whispers.

"I haven't said that, but what the Saint Maiden interprets is not necessarily complete. She can't interpret everything." Ye Qiuhan answered Qian Lin's question while using an emerald green spear to shatter the spiritual skills released by a master of Hehuan Valley.

The saint interpreted the ciphertext by guessing, so it was normal for her to miss some important information. After all, she was not a god, and she could not know the meaning of the ciphertext with just a glance.

Being able to decipher the seal of the Azure Dragon and the method to open the secret realm is already the result of the Saint's extraordinary performance.

"The good news is that, in a sense, that guy is on our side." Qian Lin drew her bow and aimed at a cultivator from the Hehuan Valley who was fighting with her senior sister. The Xuanming spiritual energy condensed into an arrow, but she did not shoot the arrow immediately. Instead, she continued to wait for her opportunity.

Respiratory energy is limited, and every bit of it should be used in a valuable way.

Ye Qiuhan does not have the same concerns as Qian Lin. She is now a pure-bred god of war. She does not need to worry about the consumption when releasing her spiritual skills. Just use a little and she can absorb as much as possible from the pure wood spiritual energy environment around her.

At this time, the advantage of the Yao Chi cultivators became apparent. Due to the sect's tendency towards cultivation attributes, about half of the disciples present now had wood attributes, and their combat effectiveness increased more than a little in the wood environment.

The cultivators of Hehuan Valley were not unaccustomed to this single-attribute spiritual energy environment. The spiritual energy they used originally needed to be converted from spiritual energy of other attributes, so the attribute bias of the surrounding environment did not have much impact on them.

This is probably the characteristic of the magic way.

The combat effectiveness of Yao Chi has increased and decreased, but in the short term, the endurance problems of the water monks have not been exposed, and the combat effectiveness of Yao Chi will be higher than before.

In the grandmaster battlefield at this moment, Yao Chi also had a subtle advantage, but unfortunately this advantage was not significant. The grandmasters from Hehuan Valley relied on their numerical advantage to withstand the attacks of Yao Chi.

"Forget it. It's not a loss for us if it drags on. As long as there is no progress on the Hehuan Valley side, we'll be gaining." Qian Lin shot an arrow at a Hehuan Valley master who had revealed a flaw. He watched his arrow being blocked by another Hehuan Valley master who reacted quickly and sighed with some regret.

It’s not that easy to launch a sneak attack.

The Grand Master of Hehuan Valley is a Grand Master after all. It is too difficult to take him down with just one arrow.

Now, it all depends on which side's reinforcements can arrive first.

I hope it's the reinforcements from our side. Qian Lin remembered that Yao Chi's main force would set out only a little later than her and Senior Sister Gu Xue. Even considering the slow advance speed of the main force, they should be here soon.

The dark clouds in the sky seemed to become thicker, and the thunder became heavier. Every thunder was like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's chest.

Something was coming, and everyone on the battlefield realized something.

A faint sense of oppression came from a very far distance. This kind of oppression was definitely not something that a master could release.

The only possible person is a Venerable, and a Venerable with considerable strength.

"Can our Venerables arrive so quickly?" Qian Lin looked at Ye Qiuhan with a bad expression. The big bomb in the East Territory exploded too quickly. The Venerables of Yao Chi probably couldn't get here in such a short time.

The venerables are not gods, they cannot teleport, and Qian Lin does not have a space jade token or something like that in his hand, so he can easily call out the elders of the sect to save the situation.

The person coming is probably the Venerable from Hehuan Valley.

The puppet standing in front of the entrance to the secret realm and guarding the gate had blue light in his eyes. He raised his head with a very stiff movement and looked into the distance.
