Chapter 3617: Strong Enemy

A mini Nascent Soul had just emerged from the body when it was enveloped by a black glow, swept into Wang Chan's mouth, and disappeared.

The Purple Scorpion Gourd trembled slightly. Wang Ruyan’s willow-like brows furrowed. After Zhu Yan's physical body was destroyed, her Nascent Soul self-destructed, but it couldn't destroy a damaged Xuantian Treasure.

As soon as Zhu Yan died, the Vermilion Bird Ring’s spiritual light dimmed and it began to fall towards the ground.

Wang Ruyan made a summoning gesture with one hand, and the Vermilion Bird Ring flew towards her, disappearing into her sleeve.

A deafening dragon roar echoed as a massive sphere of silver lightning appeared high in the sky.

Chen Lei stood aloft, his body enveloped by countless silver electrical arcs. A huge pair of green-glowing scissors floated before him.

A massive, red-glowing dragon claw emerged and struck towards Chen Lei's head.

The lightning around Chen Lei’s body intensified. A thick silver lightning bolt shot skyward, shattering the red dragon claw. A surge of crimson fire emerged, and a colossal crimson Flood Dragon appeared—it was none other than the Crimson Flood Dragon True Monarch.

Chen Lei, having anticipated this, quickly formed a hand seal. The green scissors unleashed countless green electrical arcs, transforming into a green rainbow that struck towards the Crimson Flood Dragon.

At the same time, countless mysterious runes appeared on Chen Lei’s body, and a solid silver light screen materialized out of thin air, protecting his entire being.

The green scissors struck the Crimson Flood Dragon’s body, emitting a dull clang. The Crimson Flood Dragon’s claw swiftly struck, sending the green scissors flying backward.

It opened its gaping maw and spewed a torrent of crimson flames, engulfing Chen Lei's body. Simultaneously, its tail lashed out, disappearing into the sea of fire.

A silver lightning bolt flashed in the void a thousand miles away, revealing Chen Lei’s figure. A thin layer of sweat was visible on his forehead.

The Crimson Flood Dragon True Monarch’s physical body was too strong; it could withstand a damaged Xuantian Treasure. Chen Lei was powerless against it.

A celestial melody filled the air. A colossal, blue-glowing palm swept forth, heading directly for the Crimson Flood Dragon. Simultaneously, the Purple Toad Seal appeared and smashed down.

The Crimson Flood Dragon shook its head and tail, striking the Purple Toad Seal with both claws, while also spewing a thick stream of crimson flames to meet the attack.

With a loud bang, the Purple Toad Seal flew backward, engulfed by the rolling flames.

The colossal palm struck the Crimson Flood Dragon’s body. The Crimson Flood Dragon let out an agonizing roar, its massive body writhing incessantly.

A purple light flashed, and the Purple Scorpion Gourd appeared, spewing a purple glow that enveloped the Crimson Flood Dragon.

The Crimson Flood Dragon’s body rapidly shrank, flying towards the Purple Scorpion Gourd.

A bright red light erupted from its body, seemingly trying to break free. The giant scorpion pattern on the Purple Scorpion Gourd's surface let out a harsh hiss, and the spiritual light around the Crimson Flood Dragon's body dimmed before it was pulled into the Purple Scorpion Gourd.

Wang Ruyan continuously formed hand seals, channeling spells into the Purple Scorpion Gourd, causing its spiritual light to surge.

Trapped by the Purple Scorpion Gourd, it would be difficult for the Crimson Flood Dragon True Monarch to escape.

Tong Shan was currently using the Soul Annihilation Disk to attack Fairy Jinpa and others. They dared not face the soul attack directly and evaded it.

With a series of thunderous roars, a massive ball of crimson fire soared into the sky, engulfing Ye Xuanji and Fairy Furong.

As the firelight dissipated, Fairy Furong's figure appeared in a red space, with flames raging all around.

"Spiritual Domain!"

Fairy Furong’s expression turned grim.

Flames swept across the sky with tremendous momentum.

Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch frowned, gazing at the void several thousand miles away. Ye Xuanji appeared, her expression indifferent.

Ye Xuanji formed a hand seal, and the Golden Flood Dragon Wheel transformed into a golden light, heading directly for the Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch.

The Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch snorted coldly, formed a hand seal, and a giant golden bell rose to meet it.

It was the Xuantian Treasure Golden Li Bell, the treasured artifact of the Ancient Li Clan!

The golden bell and the Golden Flood Dragon Wheel collided, producing a series of piercing clang-clang sounds.

Fairy Jinpa held a verdant jade flute in her hand. The flute emitted terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations; it was indeed the Xuantian Treasure, the Wonderful Sound Flute.

A joyful flute melody resonated. The Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch was enveloped by a green light screen, completely unharmed.

Fairy Jinpa's brows furrowed. Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch was clearly prepared, and the Wonderful Sound Flute wasn't having much effect.

A single trick couldn't guarantee victory everywhere. Since Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch dared to lead an attack, he must have made ample preparations.

Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch activated his Spiritual Domain to eliminate Fairy Furong.

With thunderous roars, rolling flames engulfed Fairy Furong’s figure.

Fairy Jinpa and Ye Xuanji tried to help, but Tong Shan manipulated the Soul Annihilation Disk to attack them.

Behind Ye Xuanji, a blinding firelight erupted in the void. A colossal nine-colored fire phoenix appeared, rapidly raising the surrounding temperature.

The nine-colored fire phoenix was formed from the Xuantian Treasure Nine Flame Pearl, possessing immense power.

Ye Xuanji reacted quickly, summoning the Profound Spirit Shield to block the attack. The nine-colored fire phoenix collided with the Profound Spirit Shield, and a surge of nine-colored flames shot skyward, engulfing Ye Xuanji's figure.

Soon after, the flames dissipated, revealing Ye Xuanji unharmed, with the Profound Spirit Shield floating before her.

"A defensive Xuantian Treasure!"

Jin Lan’s eyes burned with desire, his face full of killing intent.

At these words, many Mahayana cultivators looked over; the allure of a defensive Xuantian Treasure was too strong.

Jin Lan raised his right hand, and a green-glowing jade ruler flew out. Upon landing, it instantly took root and sprouted, transforming into a towering, ten-thousand-zhang-tall tree, constantly flickering with green light.

It was the Xuantian Treasure Ten Thousand Wood Ruler, the Medicine Clan's Xuantian Treasure.

The branches on the surface of the towering tree converged, forming a green-glowing spear that shot directly towards Ye Xuanji.

The green spear struck the Profound Spirit Shield, emitting a dull thud.

From the ground around Ye Xuanji, numerous green vines emerged, like green whips, lashing out at her.

Ye Xuanji raised her right hand, and the Purple Fist Pearl flew out. She channeled a hand seal into it, and the Purple Fist Pearl released a large amount of purple poisonous mist. The green vines that touched the purple poisonous mist quickly withered and died, giving off a wisp of green smoke.

Fairy Jinpa and Ye Xuanji were entangled by Tong Shan and Jin Lan, unable to break free. Before long, Fairy Furong was eliminated by Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch's Spiritual Domain; even her Nascent Soul couldn't escape.

A faint smile appeared on Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch's lips. Just then, an urgent male shout echoed: "Fellow Daoist Tong, save me!"

Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch followed the sound and saw a thin, green-robed old man being struck by a hundred-thousand-zhang-tall colossal wave, his body dissolving into a sky full of blood rain. A mini Nascent Soul had just emerged from his body when it was enveloped by a black glow, swept into Wang Chan's mouth, and disappeared.

"Aperture Opener!"

Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch's expression turned grave, his gaze fixed on Wang Changsheng. Judging by the might of the colossal wave, the opponent had opened an aperture. When did such a master emerge?

Tong Shan's expression turned grim upon seeing the green-robed old man killed. Even he would find it difficult to kill the green-robed old man, so the speed at which he was slain indicated the enemy's strength.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, Madam Wang, please help us deal with them, especially Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch. Fairy Furong has already been killed."

Fairy Jinpa sent a telepathic message to Wang Changsheng. Heavenly Flame Divine Monarch had already killed two Mahayana cultivators, including an elder from the Wonderful Sound Sect.
