Chapter 181

This was truly the worst luck in eight lifetimes.

"Immortal Liuyun, don't be anxious; don't forget, the Snow Hou King and the Fire Qilin Beast are sworn enemies."

Ningguang shook her head and said softly:

"Now, we can only look forward to some external factors."

Everyone couldn't help but feel a bit worried.

Ningguang's implication was that the only ones who could save them now were likely the Fire Qilin Beast, also one of the Seven Kings.

"Not coming out?"

The Snow Hou swept its gaze downward, and surging power pressed down overwhelmingly.

"Fine, I will destroy this area directly and see how you survive!"

Lifting its hand slightly, earth-shattering aura condensed on the Snow Hou, and the entire world seemed to begin to fluctuate.

But before the Snow Hou could take action, a tyrannical aura struck the firmament, instantly sweeping away the ice clouds in the sky.

"White-haired dog! How dare you run wild in my territory! Have you been frozen stupid in the Ice Spirit Domain?"

An angry voice sounded, and a middle-aged man in a fire-red robe appeared quietly opposite the Snow Hou.

The opponent looked angry, with two horns on his forehead, and his neck was covered with a layer of dense dark red scales.

Compared to the Snow Hou, the aura of this newly appeared existence was much more domineering.

The Snow Hou frowned slightly, temporarily stopped, stared at the Fire Qilin Beast opposite, and said coldly:

"I never knew that the border of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range had also become your territory, you scaly beast?"

"Heh! Only good at verbal sparring; you are as useless as your subordinates!"

The Fire Qilin Beast mocked, swept downward casually, and became increasingly contemptuous.

"A few Qi Refining into Spirit and Qi Refining into Essence cultivators were able to kill your personal guard? Truly becoming more useless as you age!"

"White-haired dog, I advise you to end it yourself early, so as not to live in this world and lose face."

The Snow Hou sneered.

"Sharp-tongued!"

"Before Mo Yixi cut off the world back then, why didn't I see you dare to bark so wildly?"

"I have no intention of wasting words with trash like you."

"Shushan disciples have entered the Nine Nether Secret Realm again after several hundred years, and they entered the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range from your territory!"

"Fire Qilin, should you give me an explanation?"

As soon as the words fell, the Fire Qilin Beast laughed in extreme anger.

"What are you? To dare to ask me for an explanation?"

"Your personal guard sneaked into my territory; I haven't even asked you to kneel and apologize to me yet!"

The Snow Hou frowned tightly and said coldly:

"The top priority is to clear out the Shushan disciples; do you really want to engage in verbal sparring with me here?"

"Just a few Qi Refining into Spirit and Qi Refining into Essence cultivators! After I deal with you, it won't be too late to capture them!"

As he spoke, purple thunder-fire gradually condensed in the Fire Qilin Beast's eyes.

"Capture?!"

The Snow Hou was annoyed.

"Damn thing! You want to swallow the Shushan disciples all by yourself! Aren't you afraid that we will all crusade against you!"

"Ridiculous! How are you any better? Do you really think I can't see your intentions?"

The Fire Qilin Beast sneered.

"The Seven Kings Alliance? A bunch of treacherous villains with their own agendas are worthy of forming an alliance with me?"

"After I take down the Shushan disciples and find the exit, you all can continue to spend the rest of your lives in this Nine Nether!"

"White-haired dog! Die!"

As the words fell, thunder-fire filled the sky, roaring toward the Snow Hou.

"Good, good, good!"

The Snow Hou laughed in extreme anger and swung its palm.

"If it weren't for giving Qing Feng face, you would have already become a ghost under my hands!"

"Today, I will send you to the Yellow Springs!"

The bone-chilling cold current and thunder-fire collided, and the entire world seemed to begin to fluctuate.

At the moment the two demons clashed, an energy tide even more terrifying than the three-headed demonic bird's self-detonation clamored out.

In an instant, the aftermath tore apart everything visible within a radius of a thousand miles.

Zhongli and the others were shocked; at this time, they didn't care about hiding their aura and decisively combined their efforts to block this wave of spiritual energy tide.

"Run!"

Venti urged hurriedly, swept up the others, and fled outward rapidly.

Zhongli didn't want to continue resisting head-on either.

The aftermath of the collision between these two demons was even more powerful than the three-headed demonic bird's self-detonation.

They had only resisted for a while, and his true essence was flowing away crazily like a floodgate opening.

The principle of the city gate catching fire and harming the fish in the moat was never so clear and obvious.

Two high-level cultivators were fighting, and the aftermath almost tore them apart.

This time, Venti was truly fighting with all his might.

The Wine God Art was instantly activated, and he accelerated to take everyone away regardless of anything else.

It wasn't until an hour later that the sound of the collision behind them gradually became a bit faint.

Venti breathed a sigh of relief, and the next moment, the intense sense of weakness after the Wine God Art ended surged into his heart.

Venti instantly fell from the high sky, but fortunately, Zhongli grabbed him with quick eyes and hands.

"Old man... don't run anymore..."

Venti opened his eyes tiredly and looked at Zhongli.

"Too tired... can't run anymore."

Zhongli pursed his lips and nodded, feeling complicated:

"Rest for a while; it shouldn't spread here."

"Two peak Qi Refining into Spirit cultivators fighting, it shouldn't be over for a while."

Hearing this, Venti finally nodded with difficulty and fainted.

"Xiaoyue, Spirit Gathering Formation."

Zhongli instructed softly, and after Xiaoyue urgently set up the Spirit Gathering Formation, he placed Venti inside.

The circulation of the Zhou Tian Qi operated on its own, and Venti's complexion improved quite a bit.

This time, his true essence was truly depleted.

Zhongli and Alice were no better off; after all, they were the two who faced the aftermath head-on just now.

Immediately, they also sat cross-legged and took pills to start recovering their true essence.

Not long after entering the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, one of the group was unable to move, and two had exhausted their true essence.

And these were the three with the strongest combat power.

Ningguang and the others were truly a bit melancholy.

The key point was...

They hadn't even fought a proper battle yet.

Taking advantage of the fact that Zhongli and the others were recovering and temporarily unable to move, Ningguang and the others took the time to look back at the battle area.

The sky over there had completely become a situation of ice and fire standing on opposite sides.

It was as if the firmament had been split open.

As they continued to collide, the area just now was also constantly being annihilated.

The high mountains, thousands of meters tall, were broken and turned to ashes as soon as they were grazed by the two demons' attacks.

Thinking back to the demonic beasts and fierce beasts that ran slowly on the road when they were fleeing just now.

They all died in the aftermath.

Among them, there was no lack of peak Qi Refining into Essence existences.

Life, in the Nine Nether Secret Realm, was actually so cheap...
