Jade Shadow Zen Heart (by Yi Jiu_Qian Xiao)

Comment: This fanfiction by a fellow reader is very logical. It intricately and reasonably details the relationship between Saint Ancestor Baohua and Ming Luo, as well as the reasons behind the upheaval caused by the Demon Realm's founding ancestors. This is truly rare!

**I. Saint Ancestor Ming Luo**

In an unknown region of the Demon Realm, a young woman in a white robe and feathered attire traveled within a beam of light.

Occasionally, low-level demonic beasts would leap from the ground to attack. The feathered woman would casually wave her hand, seemingly effortlessly, and these beasts would transform into a mist of blood, apparently having no effect on her at all.

This woman was none other than the Old Ancestor of the Ye family, who possessed the true blood of the Heavenly Phoenix.

Unbeknownst to her, a nearly invisible pink mist followed her unhurriedly, about several tens of miles behind.

“Black Crocodile, how many years have we been following this woman?” A beautiful woman in palace attire, hidden within the mist, suddenly spoke. It was Baohua, one of the three founding ancestors of the Demon Realm.

“Master, it has been decades since we returned to the Sacred Realm from the Spirit Realm. This woman traveled with several other cultivators from the Spirit Realm for a while before they scattered again. Moreover, according to reports from several sources, some Saint Ancestors have even descended their true forms into the Spirit Realm.” A black-faced man replied respectfully.

“Yes, I know that, of course. But, Black Crocodile, how much do you know about Sister Ming Luo’s disappearance?” Baohua suddenly changed the subject.

“It's shameful to admit, Master, that you painstakingly nurtured me back then, but I, your humble servant, don't even know your whereabouts. If I could find you, Black Crocodile would gladly go through fire and water,” the black-faced man said, appearing uncharacteristically agitated.

“It's not in vain that Sister Ming Luo nurtured you so well back then, even to the point of entrusting me with your care in the end,” Baohua said, seemingly recalling something, her tone suddenly tinged with sadness.

“What? Does Lord Baohua know Master's whereabouts?” The black-faced man's face first showed surprise, then transformed into wild joy.

“Sister Ming Luo reached the Saint Ancestor realm in just ten thousand years, and she ascended to the Tribulation Transcending stage in less than thirty thousand years. She is a cultivation prodigy rarely seen in our Sacred Realm for millions of years. Besides me, the Sacred Realm also has the two founding ancestors, Tianqi and Heyan. Even Liu Ji could at best fight Sister Ming Luo to a draw. Back then, regarding the clash among our Sacred Realm's founding ancestors, you only know the result, but not the reason, right?” A rare hint of killing intent appeared on Baohua's beautiful face as she suddenly spoke to the black-faced man with solemnity.

“At that time, my cultivation had only just entered the Void Refinement stage, not even the Demon Venerable stage. I knew very little about it, only hearing some rumors and hearsay,” the black-faced man replied with a bewildered expression.

“That was thirty thousand years ago, before you existed. Sister Ming Luo had only just entered the Saint Ancestor realm back then. At that time, Sister Ming Luo was young and spirited, offending many people, especially those two, Tianqi and Heyan, who also had some grievances with her. However, Sister Ming Luo and I became acquainted through a fight, and she simply decided to become sworn sisters with me. Under my persuasion, Sister Ming Luo dedicated herself to cultivation, and the other Saint Ancestors, due to my presence, dared not do anything to her, even if they were displeased.” Baohua seemed to recall something, her brow furrowing slightly.

“It wasn't until ten thousand years ago, when Sister Ming Luo broke through to the Tribulation Transcending stage, that with her extraordinary intellect and our combined efforts, we uncovered an astonishing secret. You should know this: while beings above the Demon Venerable level in the Sacred Realm hardly need to fear lifespan issues, the Sacred Realm's environment is composed of cultivators forged through countless battles; even you, Black Crocodile, are not without some fierce energy. Our Sacred Realm demon cultivators are supposed to ascend to the True Demon Realm, but almost all demon cultivators are unaware that even in the True Demon Realm, it's just this same environment. It's highly possible to become someone else's servant. There was even a former founding ancestor who ascended but was forced to flee back to the Sacred Realm, otherwise, they might have been refined into an avatar for some powerful figure in the True Demon Realm. Furthermore, the name 'Sacred Realm' is merely a self-deceiving term used by us demon cultivators. Sister Ming Luo and I naturally knew this. Later, we discovered an earth-shattering secret: if human cultivators can transform from cultivating spiritual energy to cultivating demonic energy, they can naturally also transform from demonic cultivators to Spirit Realm cultivators. Sister Ming Luo and I happened to discover a method to cultivate both spiritual and demonic energies simultaneously. You know that many cultivators in the Spirit Realm who practice both body and spirit cultivation adopted their techniques from our Sacred Realm's cultivation methods. The last time we went to retrieve the Heavenly Udumbara Flower, the cultivator we encountered who helped the Lei Clan boy escape was cultivating both body and spirit, and he seemed to have achieved great mastery. Sister Ming Luo and I found that we could use a secret art to fearlessly resist the realm's repulsive force, and even ascend to the Immortal Realm like Spirit Realm cultivators. However, this secret art only allows a portion of cultivators to transform. Tianqi and Heyan, unfortunately, cannot take this path. Of course, you can take this path,” Baohua suddenly said to the black-faced man with profound meaning.

At this point, the black-faced man was too terrified to speak.

“Although they didn't know about this technique, they were already afraid of my power growing too vast. So, as soon as Sister Ming Luo disappeared, those few immediately made a move against me. Liu Ji and Rakshasa could have taken this path, but only Sister Ming Luo and I knew about it; we didn't tell them. That's why, when I heard they were going to invade the human and demon regions of the Spirit Realm, I immediately opposed it,” Baohua continued with a faint smile.

“If Lord Baohua says Master is still alive, then why not go look for her? With the combined strength of two Lords, reclaiming authority in the Sacred Realm wouldn't be difficult,” the black-faced man said thoughtfully.

“Sister Ming Luo is in the Spirit Realm, and she is still alive, though I don't know her current location. And Black Crocodile, since Sister Ming Luo and I decided to take this path, we naturally don't care about the so-called authority of the Sacred Realm anymore. You should also remember that when we first returned to the Sacred Realm, I performed a not-so-successful divination. I asked if you wanted to know what the divination showed, but you didn't ask. Actually, that divination showed that not only would I recover my cultivation upon returning to the Sacred Realm this time, but I could also go very far on this path. It also revealed a bit of information about Sister Ming Luo,” Baohua said, with a hint of undetectable longing on her face.

“Black Crocodile will henceforth follow Lord Baohua with all my might, unwavering even unto death, no matter what difficulties we encounter,” Black Crocodile immediately declared with utmost loyalty.

“The battle between Tianqi, Heyan, and me back then lasted for months, even leveling the renowned Nine Abyss Mountain in the Sacred Realm. When I destroyed the Profound Sky Ruyi Blade and broke through the realm, did you think Tianqi and Heyan suffered no losses? They forcibly stimulated their potential; it will be difficult for them to recover their peak cultivation for several millennia. And if I were to make this matter public in the Sacred Realm, I imagine I wouldn't need to do anything at all; Tianqi and Heyan would be doomed. Why would I bother thinking about reclaiming authority then? There are so many cultivators who ascended to the Sacred Realm from lower realms; how many of them were forced to ascend here because they couldn't ascend to the Spirit Realm? If I were to make this news public, I believe a great upheaval in the Sacred Realm would be inevitable,” Baohua said with a cold laugh.

“Then, why doesn't Lord Baohua do that?” the black-faced man asked, his face full of doubt.

“The main reason I don't do that is my apprehension towards those terrifying beings in the True Demon Realm. Although they must suppress their cultivation when crossing into the Sacred Realm, even so, their power is comparable to True Spirits. If I were to make this matter public, how could the True Demon Realm let me off? Once this is revealed, the number of demonic cultivators would surely decrease significantly. Currently, the Demon Realm and Spirit Realm are merely comparable in strength, but then, the complete annihilation of the entire Demon Realm would not be impossible. The reason I was able to ascend to the position of a founding ancestor back then was because the previous founding ancestor angered the beings in the True Demon Realm. Those terrifying beings descended from the True Demon Realm to the Sacred Realm and directly obliterated Founding Ancestor Chi Qiang. It is said that that battle rendered a vast region completely barren, and numerous races were directly wiped out during that time. It was only within the last hundred thousand years that some vitality returned, specifically in the Phantasmic Howl Desert, where we once traveled,” Baohua said with a light chuckle.

“So that's how the Phantasmic Howl Desert came to be?” Black Crocodile's face once again showed profound shock.

“The Evil Dragon Clan once dominated the entire Spirit Realm. The True Blood of the Evil Dragon is the most malevolent among all True Dragon bloodlines, and almost nothing could restrain it, apart from the nearly extinct Golden Lightning Bamboo. You possess the True Blood of the Evil Dragon; once you mature and unlock its potential, you can contend with the renowned Outer Realm Sky Demons without falling behind in the slightest.” Baohua completely ignored the black-faced man's question and instead spoke a series of sentences about the True Blood of the Evil Dragon.

“This humble one naturally knows that, but I wonder what Lord means by saying all this?” Although the black-faced man had some doubts, he still asked respectfully.

“Back then, your spiritual intelligence hadn't awakened. I first discovered you in the Fallen Star Lake. At that time, you weren't a low-level demonic beast at all, but rather a being entirely from the Spirit Realm. However, because you possess the True Blood of the Evil Dragon, you naturally exude a daunting demonic aura, which incidentally concealed your true identity. It just so happened that I had just become acquainted with Sister Ming Luo, so I conveniently gave you to her.” Baohua's words were so astonishing that the black-faced man almost dropped his jaw.

As they spoke, the pink mist followed the feathered woman to the edge of a forest.

The forest was filled with countless towering trees. Strangely, their trunks were all bare, but their canopies were unusually widespread. All the tree bark was black, growing darker and denser with thicker trunks. A faint demonic energy permeated the air within.

“Nightmare Forest!” the feathered woman murmured almost inaudibly, a hint of surprise and doubt appearing on her face.

After hesitating for roughly the time it takes an incense stick to burn, the feathered woman casually took out a jade slip and read it carefully. After a long period of contemplation, she stomped her foot and entered the forest.

“Lord, let's quickly follow her! I can't believe this woman entered such a notorious dangerous place in our Sacred Realm. It is said that there are quite a few Demon Venerable-level demonic beasts in this forest, and at night, because they inherently live there, a considerable portion of them can reach the strength of a perfected Body Integration cultivator,” the black-faced man blurted out everything he knew without hesitation upon seeing this.

Baohua said nothing, merely waved her hand and followed the young woman into the forest.

After entering the forest, the Old Ancestor of the Ye family, using an unknown spell, almost completely concealed her aura. She seemed to move casually but was in fact flying rapidly, covering a li in an instant.

“Black Crocodile, we've been following this woman for so long. Although the Nightmare Forest is somewhat dangerous, with her divine abilities, she should be able to pass through safely without much trouble. Even though you've broken through your initial bottleneck while with me and possess the remnant blade of the Profound Sky Ruyi Blade that I bestowed upon you, you wouldn't gain any advantage against this woman,” Baohua said casually.

“Master, I understand,” the black-faced man replied with a hint of embarrassment, yet daring not to be slow.

Baohua also said little, simply waving her hand and unhurriedly following the feathered woman as she flew forward.

Seven days later, the feathered woman safely exited the forest, having had some scares but no real danger.

Three more days passed, and the feathered woman arrived in a valley.

The valley was permeated with dense demonic energy. The sides of the valley were steep and even glowed faintly. As far as the eye could see within the valley, dark trees were scattered everywhere.

From time to time, mournful roars of beasts could be heard in the valley, as if it were a living hell.

“Is this Grievous Beast Valley?” The feathered woman frowned deeply, but then suddenly seemed to discover something.

“Fellow Daoist, you've been following me for so long. Shouldn't you show yourself and have a chat?” the feathered woman suddenly spoke, her melodious voice echoing through the valley.

Immediately, about a hundred zhang away from the young woman, a swirling mass of black qi coalesced, revealing two men with pointed horns on their heads.

“You actually managed to discover us. It seems we brothers underestimated you. However, if you weren't about to enter Grievous Beast Valley, we brothers really wouldn't have revealed ourselves. But looking at this, you're harder to deal with than we imagined. Ordinary Demon Venerables can't detect us. No, I shouldn't call you a Demon Venerable; I should call you a Spirit Realm cultivator, right? Then again, it makes sense. A Spirit Realm cultivator daring to openly roam our Sacred Realm wouldn't do so without some true divine abilities,” said one of the men, who had a head full of green hair tied into small braids.

“Both of you are merely at the Demon Venerable realm. I wonder where you get such confidence to detain me? Moreover, we are at the same cultivation level. Even if I can't defeat you, escaping wouldn't be difficult, would it? And there's one thing I don't understand: how did you two Fellow Daoists discern that I am from the Spirit Realm? I flatter myself that without Mahayana stage cultivation, it would be difficult to discover my identity,” the feathered woman said with a faint smile, seemingly showing no fear towards the men before her.

“Oh! I can't believe you're still so calm, that's truly rare. If I could control you, perhaps I'd take you as my cauldron. Unfortunately, your cultivation isn't inferior to mine, so it's a pity. However, the way we discovered your identity is because my brother and I cultivate a secret art. Consider yourself unlucky. Originally, my brother and I had no intentions concerning you. But we've been at our current realm for thousands of years and wondering how to advance further. We happen to need a Body Integration-level Spirit Realm cultivator to break through our current bottleneck. According to our plan, we intended to blend into the invading Spirit Realm army and capture several Void Refinement-level cultivators to make up the numbers. It seems Heaven has aided us brothers; you just happened to arrive here and were encountered by us. Haha!” the other horned man said with extreme delight.

“Do you have any more questions? Today, my brother and I are in excellent spirits, so we can explain a thing or two to you. Otherwise, once your soul disperses, you won't have the chance,” the green-haired man said with a sinister grin.

“But why didn't you two make your move in the Nightmare Forest, and instead chased me all the way here? I've heard that you demonic cultivators of the Nightmare Forest can spontaneously enhance your divine abilities by several points while inside the Nightmare Forest,” the feathered woman asked.

“Although few dare to provoke us brothers in the Nightmare Forest, we also have many enemies. If we were to act in the forest, we wouldn't know if some random person might rush out and spoil our plans. Moreover, in a life-or-death struggle, even if we are arrogant, we are not foolish. Furthermore, you are no ordinary Spirit Realm cultivator; engaging in battle might inevitably cause some damage to our cultivation. And since we were about to enter Grievous Beast Valley, my brother and I had no choice but to make our move. Now that you're here, you belong to us brothers!” the green-haired man said, a trace of solemnity appearing on his face.

Upon hearing this, the feathered woman's face showed a thoughtful expression. Then, she lifted her head, swung both arms, and two streams of silvery-white light shot directly towards the two horned men.

The feathered woman attacked without any warning, but feeling that the current assault was clearly insufficient, she spread her arms and instantly ascended to a hundred zhang high, her body emitting dazzling light, like a fairy descending from the heavens.

Immediately after, the young woman formed a hand seal, and thousands of multi-colored plumes shot forth, accompanied by occasional phoenix cries.

Seeing this, the two demons opposite were clearly angered by the sudden, unannounced attack.

However, the two demons did not panic. They joined their palms together and chanted an obscure, difficult-to-understand incantation. Instantly, a powerful black light erupted around their bodies.

The two white light streams arrived instantly, but strangely, upon touching the black light surrounding the demons, they faded and disappeared, having almost no effect.

Thousands of plumes then collided with the black light. Unlike the previous two white light streams, these thousands of plumes ignored the black light's presence, directly penetrating it and striking the two demons' bodies.

Seeing this, a hint of ferocity appeared in the demons' eyes. Simultaneously, a shining black battle armor materialized around their bodies, each chest plate inscribed with a black wolf head.

The thousands of plumes struck the demons' battle armor, emitting dazzling light. The two demons simultaneously channeled their magic power furiously, directly blocking the thousands of plumes from their bodies.

At this point, the demons' faces no longer showed any contempt, but rather extreme solemnity, clearly having suffered a minor setback.

Seeing this, the Old Ancestor of the Ye family on the opposite side was even more astonished. What appeared to be a casual move earlier was in fact her Thousand Plume Art, cultivated for many years, almost equivalent to a full-strength strike from a perfected Body Integration cultivator. Yet, the two demon lords opposite, though suffering a slight disadvantage, had managed to withstand it. This showed that the two demons before her were indeed formidable opponents.

As she pondered, the feathered woman stomped her foot, preparing to flee instantly.

Just then, a black shadow appeared above the feathered woman's head, instantly transforming into a gigantic black wolf over a hundred zhang in size.

The gigantic black wolf simultaneously extended all four claws, directly trapping the feathered woman beneath it.

“Soul-Devouring Demonic Wolf!” The feathered woman's face was filled with disbelief.

“Trying to leave now, isn't it a bit too late? If you surrender obediently, my brother and I might let you die a quicker death,” the green-haired man said, unable to hide his triumphant expression.

The feathered woman frowned, as if having made a decision. With a single wave of her hand, a white plume appeared. Then, she spat a mouthful of vital blood onto the plume.

Immediately after, the feathered woman formed hand seals, and a phoenix, whose body length was no less than that of the gigantic black wolf, appeared out of thin air.

Accompanied by a shrill cry, the white plume instantly expanded to a thousand zhang, enveloping the gigantic black wolf.

Then a white beam of light slashed out, and in the blink of an eye, the phoenix was a thousand zhang away.

“Break!” A clear sound came from the phoenix's mouth.

With an earth-shattering explosion, the gigantic black wolf and the white plume transformed into a dazzling ball of light and vanished.

“Spatial divine ability, True Blood of the Heavenly Phoenix, Heavenly Phoenix Plume! You dare to destroy the Natal Aspect that my brother and I cultivated for tens of thousands of years! Today, we two will surely perish with you!” The two demons seemed utterly enraged, letting out a wail like ghosts.

The phoenix rolled in mid-air, transforming back into the human form of the Old Ancestor of the Ye family, and fled rapidly in one direction.

Seeing this, the two demons simultaneously conjured their respective treasures, both of which were jade Ruyi scepters with two wolf heads.

The two Ruyi scepters merged into one. When activated by the two demons, they transformed into a mass of black qi and pursued the Old Ancestor of the Ye family at an escape velocity that seemed slightly faster than hers.

The Old Ancestor of the Ye family felt an extreme bitterness in her heart: On this journey to the Demon Realm, she had just passed through the Phantasmic Howl Desert when she was surrounded by a group of about thirty Demon Venerables. As soon as the two sides clashed, Elder Hui was killed by the opponents in just one round. Out of necessity, everyone had to break out separately, as a direct confrontation would clearly yield no benefit. She had only just managed to escape the pursuit and was racking her brains trying to return to the Spirit Realm, when unexpectedly, while passing through the Nightmare Forest, she encountered the two demon lords. Furthermore, each of the two demon lords had cultivation no less than hers, and when they joined forces, their strength was comparable to half a Mahayana existence. Therefore, being unable to contend with them even in a single exchange, the Old Ancestor of the Ye family did not hesitate to expend her own True Blood of the Heavenly Phoenix and a Heavenly Phoenix Plume to destroy the terrifying legendary Soul-Devouring Demonic Wolf Aspect, no longer even considering fighting the two demons behind her. And the two demons' escape speed was incredibly fast. Was she truly destined to perish here?

As the Old Ancestor of the Ye family pondered, she continued to fly at undiminished speed.

“Master, should we intervene and help this woman who possesses the True Blood of the Heavenly Phoenix?” In the invisible pink mist not far from the two demons, the black-faced man asked respectfully.

“Calm down. If this woman truly can't hold on and is about to perish, I will intervene. But for now, let's just keep following and observe,” said the stunning woman in palace attire from within the pink mist, her brows slightly furrowed.

Tens of thousands of miles away, within a certain dark mountain range, a young man in a green robe sat with his eyes closed, fine beads of sweat covering his forehead, seemingly cultivating an extremely difficult divine ability. It was Han Li.

Suddenly, Han Li's tightly closed eyes opened, and he stood up with a flicker.

“It's her, and she's being pursued by two Demon Venerables. This is rather interesting. However, I truly must save this woman; I can't just stand by, sigh.” With a sigh, Han Li pondered for a moment, and a pair of crystalline feathered wings appeared on his back. At the same time, he formed a hand seal, and a net-like lightning array appeared before him. In the blink of an eye, he was tens of thousands of miles away.

After appearing, Han Li unhesitatingly waved both hands. Immediately, seventy-two Azure Cloud Peak Bamboo Swords materialized around him. In the blink of an eye, they transformed into thousands of sword beams and vanished into the ground.

Having done this, Han Li felt it wasn't enough. With a wave of his single hand, after a flash of spiritual light from his Spirit Beast Ring, a young girl in a yellow dress materialized.

“Immediately conceal your form and hide within my sword array. Act as the opportunity arises later,” Han Li instructed the Leopard-Lin Beast with a serious expression.

The young girl nodded and instantly transformed into a golden streak, disappearing from sight.

Seeing this, a smile appeared on Han Li's face. Speaking of the Leopard-Lin Beast, thanks to his countless pills, this beast had already reached the peak of the early Body Integration stage ten years ago. Had there been a suitable location, it might have already broken through to the mid-stage by now.

Moreover, this beast possesses extraordinary talent in concealment. Even though his Soul Refining Art has reached the first layer of grand completion, just short of breaking through the bottleneck, making him comparable to an ordinary Mahayana stage cultivator, it would still be difficult to discover this beast after it conceals itself unless one deliberately searched for it.

Over the past few decades, through his continuous diligent study, the Azure Banner Sword Array had been strengthened once more. Even a late-stage perfected Demon Venerable, if trapped within it, would be stripped of a layer of skin.

Having completed these preparations, Han Li raised his hand and conjured a talisman, which instantly vanished into thin air.

Half an hour later, a white escape light flew towards the location where Han Li had set up his sword array. Inside, the feathered woman was indeed the Old Ancestor of the Ye family. Her face showed an undeniable paleness, making it seem as if her vital essence had been injured.

Just as the white escape light rushed into the sword array, a swirling mass of black qi followed closely behind.

Just as the Old Ancestor of the Ye family was about to make a move, she suddenly discovered that a forest had appeared out of thin air on the previously flat path before her. Despair instantly appeared on her face.

However, when the Old Ancestor of the Ye family looked back at the black mist where the two pursuing Demon Venerables were, only bewilderment remained.

She saw that the black qi surrounding the two Demon Venerables was being attacked by streaks of unknown green sword qi. Golden lightning occasionally interspersed within the sword qi, and the black qi was diminishing rapidly.

“This is? A sword array?” The Old Ancestor of the Ye family suppressed her inner surprise and couldn't help but blurt out upon seeing the scene before her.

“Fellow Daoist Ye, I didn't expect us to meet again after we got separated last time,” a man's voice transmitted to her.

“Brother Han!” the Old Ancestor of the Ye family cried out ecstatically, but then her mind went blank, and she instantly fainted, plummeting directly from mid-air.

Just as the Old Ancestor of the Ye family was about to hit the ground, a ghostly gray figure appeared, caught her, and instantly vanished.

Seeing this, the two Demon Venerables couldn't suppress their surprise and simultaneously let out an exclamation.

“Who dares to be so audacious as to plot against us brothers? We brothers will surely extract your tendons and refine your soul!” the green-haired man among them bellowed.

“You two certainly talk big, but you are merely at the late Body Integration stage, and you can't even find my location. Why not test the power of my sword array before your souls scatter?” a voice echoed within the sword array.

Thousands of green sword lights continuously assaulted the black mist where the two demons were. At the same time, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi within a radius of several miles began to gather towards the sword array.

Within the sword array, hundreds of distinctly different sword lights gradually coalesced. These sword lights ultimately merged into a single hundred-zhang-long sword beam.

Seeing this, the two demons within the black mist immediately spat out several mouthfuls of vital blood. Simultaneously, they swiftly conjured their magic treasures.

The two bright jade Ruyi scepters merged into one. After integrating the demons' respective vital blood, they instantly grew to a hundred zhang in size, in no way inferior to the sword light condensed by the sword array.

In an inconspicuous part of the sword array, Han Li's third eye appeared on his forehead. Its blue light flickered as he stared at the magic treasure unleashed by the two demons.

“This is interesting. No wonder they could reduce the Old Ancestor of the Ye family to such a state,” Han Li murmured almost inaudibly, then waved a single hand.

The hundred-zhang-long sword light unflinchingly slashed towards the jade Ruyi scepter. However, the Ruyi scepter merely trembled slightly and then effortlessly received the sword light.

Seeing this, the two demons' faces showed no relaxation at all; instead, they became even more solemn.

At the same time, more sword lights appeared within the array, instantly coalescing into three sword lights, each comparable to the one that had just struck.

Accompanied by a cold snort, the three sword lights unflinchingly slashed towards the jade Ruyi magic treasure.

After the three sword lights struck, the jade Ruyi magic treasure no longer appeared as effortless as before, and a crack emerged on its surface.

Concurrently, the two demons, whose minds were connected to their natal magic treasure, simultaneously spat out a mouthful of vital blood.

“Nothing more than this. A waste of my time,” Han Li said, revealing his form. At the same time, two pairs of crystalline feathered wings appeared on his back, and with a single flicker, he arrived above the mist where the two demons were.

A golden giant hand appeared, covered with threads of golden lightning. Simultaneously, two small mountains, each over a hundred zhang in size, materialized and moved towards the black mist where the two demons were.

“This is bad!” the two demons' alarmed cries came from within the black mist.

From within the black mist, the horned man suddenly waved a single hand, severing one of his own arms. Immediately after, an obscure and difficult-to-understand incantation began.

The horned man's arm transformed into a bloody mist that enveloped the two demons' heads. With a loud shout, a gigantic black wolf, over a hundred zhang in size, appeared.

Seeing this, the green-haired man unhesitatingly formed a strange hand seal, and in a blink, transformed into a black mist that enveloped the gigantic wolf.

An extremely painful expression appeared on the gigantic wolf's face. Strangely, its tail vanished, and another head surprisingly emerged in its place.

These actions, though seemingly simple, were completed in an instant.

Immediately, a primeval aura emerged from the two-headed gigantic wolf, and its aura surged by more than twofold.

“Hmph, you actually forced us brothers to use this move. No wonder we brothers will make your souls scatter!” Both wolf heads astonishingly spoke the same words simultaneously.

Seeing this, a trace of solemnity appeared on Han Li's face, but no expression of tension was visible.

The two demons before him, merged into one through this esoteric art. Although their aura surged by more than twofold, their magic power was not overly exaggerated in its depth. Their divine sense, however, had reached the initial level of the Mahayana stage.
