Senior Sister Bai Yueguang is incredibly strong.

Chapter 56 Sect Grand Competition (End - Part 1)

After treating their wounds, Su Wusi and the others saw that Luo Zaishui, Shi Ming, and the others were all in a light sleep, so they did not disturb them and sat quietly to the side.

It was an hour later when Nie Xushuang had settled the wounded, and Luo Zaishui and Shi Ming had also rested for more than an hour.

They weren't deep sleepers to begin with, and the slightest sound would wake them up.

"woke up?"

Nie Xushuang was the first to notice that Luo Zaisui had woken up. Shi Ming, who was beside her, had also woken up long ago. In order not to disturb her, he had been closing his eyes to regulate his breathing. When he heard Nie Xushuang's voice, he opened his eyes as well.

A look of confusion flashed across Luo Zai Shui's eyes, but then she came to her senses, and the weight that had been on Shi Ming's shoulder instantly dissipated.

How long did I sleep?

"It's only been a little over an hour." Shi Ming's voice was like a spring breeze, soothing the restlessness in her heart.

Chu Yeli slowly opened his eyes: "I just tried to sense it with my divine sense. The array eye is neither too far nor too close to us."

Shi Ming glanced at the other disciples. Apart from the people from the five major sects, there were also people from other aristocratic families and sects. There were at least two hundred people in total, and nearly half of them were seriously injured. There was no way to take so many people with him. But the best way now was to stick together.

"We can't take so many people with us."

Ye Xiao was seriously injured and unable to wield a sword. He and Zai Shui had also exhausted themselves in the fight. If they were to fight again, Shi Ming could not guarantee that they could win.

Looking at the somewhat somber crowd, Luo Zai Shui asked, "We're going to break the formation, can you come with us?"

The trusted disciples looked at each other, mostly feeling powerless to help.

"us!"

Looking towards the sound, they saw Jiang Qian, the young master of the Jiang family, carrying Shen Xian, who was unconscious due to serious injuries, on his back, and holding two swords in his hands.

"If we stay here, we're doomed. But if we act together, those demons will be wary of us. At least that way, we'll be safe!"

Su Wusi's gaze unconsciously fell on Ye Xiao, who had just woken up. Xu Yu put his arm around Ye Xiao's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Senior Sister Luo. Although my swordsmanship is not as good as Senior Brother's, I can still hold my own against those demons!"

Sun Heng, supporting the injured Sun Yuan, said, "We can do it too."

Chu Yeli stood up, dusted off his hands, and said, "In that case, let's get going."

A few people were still hesitant, thinking they could find a safe place to hide and wait for the elders to come to their rescue. However, when they saw the large group of people leaving, the fear of being dominated by the demons surged up again, so they followed the main group.

The team moved slowly, with Chu Yeli leading the way, Luo Zaishui and Shi Ming bringing up the rear, and Su Wusi constantly on guard, his back taut, ready to fight at any moment.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be it."

Chu Yeli stopped and looked at Luo Zaishui. Behind him was an abyss filled with ominous miasma. If one were to fall in, it would be an eternal damnation.

Luo Zai Shui held the peach branch and walked forward, peering out to carefully observe the scene below the abyss.

Are you sure this is the place?

Luo Zai Shui frowned as he looked at the miasma that was almost spreading to the ground. If someone accidentally inhaled it, their spiritual energy would be almost completely shut down, making them no different from a cripple.

"in the sky."

Luo Zai Shui looked in the direction Chu Ye Li was pointing. There was a golden sphere of light there, almost indistinguishable from the sun from a distance. She examined it carefully for a moment before realizing its mystery: "How did you find it?"

Chu Yeli shrugged: "Whose sun doesn't move at all? This place looks really strange."

Shi Ming stood next to Luo Zai Shui and tried to unleash a sword aura. In no time, the sword aura returned along the same path. If the group hadn't dodged in time, they would have all been in trouble.

Luo clicked her tongue lightly; this was troublesome.

Do you have any thoughts?

This is Chu Yeli asking Luo Zaishui a question.

Luo touched his chin and threw a talisman at the water. Before it even got close, the talisman automatically burned and turned into ashes.

Sun Yuan then stood up shakily and said, "This thing does seem to be a magical artifact."

All eyes fell on Sun Yuan at the same time.

"Is there any way to get it down? Or should we just destroy it?"

Sun Yuan shook his head: "This thing is generally indestructible, and destroying it would also blast away the surrounding area for hundreds of miles. It's not feasible. It's better to let it recognize its master directly, which will be faster."

Luo Zai Shui actually began to seriously consider the feasibility of making that thing recognize its master, and Shi Ming couldn't help but remind him, "That's something from the demon race."

Chu Yeli sighed softly, "It seems we'll have to start from another angle to break the formation."

"Why are you in such a hurry to break through the formation? Why don't you come and have some fun with us?"

As the female demon's voice rang out, all the disciples immediately sounded alarm bells and gripped their magical weapons tightly.

With a burst of oppressive force, the originally large group of people all knelt down in a rush, leaving only a few disciples from powerful families with decent cultivation levels standing.

Luo Zai Shui whispered to Shi Ming, "Senior Brother, she should be the owner of that magic artifact. If we kill her, the magic artifact will be ownerless."

Shi Ming immediately understood, and with his sword in hand, he transformed into a blur and rushed forward.

Luo Zai Shui followed closely behind, moving even faster than Shi Ming, so fast that he transformed into two figures, directly confusing his opponent.

Jian Muyi and Su Wusi drew their swords and blocked a demon's path, while Ji Tinghan and Chu Yeli scattered talismans without restraint. The constant explosions and the stench of blood in the air mingled together, and a chaotic battle ensued.

Although Ye Xiao wanted to help, Xu Yu handed him over to Zhou Mian: "Senior Brother, you rest. Leave this to me. I'll also show you the swordsmanship I've been practicing lately."

Although the female demon was retreating steadily, she didn't have many injuries. Luo Zai Shui was a little puzzled. She vaguely felt that the person was dragging them along.

But why is that?

There were clearly only three demonic cultivators on the field, but Luo Zai Shui's unease grew stronger. In a moment of distraction, a long black shadow almost fell on her.

A muffled groan rang out. Luo Zai Shui herself hadn't even seen how Shi Ming had blocked her way. The stench of blood in the air intensified, forcing her to pull herself back to her senses and fight with all her might.

Outside the secret realm, a group of demon disciples suddenly appeared on the Wen family's territory.

"Esteemed clan leaders and family heads, please don't misunderstand. I'm here to discuss a business deal with you."

Although the man's face was full of wrinkles, his hair was still jet black, clearly indicating that he was the Demon Lord who had been imprisoned outside the borders.

Xie Jing narrowed his eyes: "Demon Lord? No, you should just be an illusion of his."

"Hahahaha, not bad, Immortal Master Xie." The man seemed to have lost interest in talking to them. With a wave of his hand, the faces of the disciples appeared before the elders of various sects and families.

"They are my bargaining chips."
