In those years when I was a mortal and a demon

Chapter 671 Alienation 5 Lines

A loud buzzing sound suddenly rang out in the void, and amidst flashes of white light, countless wind blades the size of door panels appeared.

These wind blades were incredibly thin and semi-transparent. With a single finger from the Great Elder of the Ming Clan, they instantly slashed towards the Venerables who were pursuing them.

"Be careful! This old thing from another world has extraordinary wind blades. Illusion Venerable and the others were injured because they were careless!" A demon lord shouted angrily from behind.

"Hmph! In this Demon Source Sea, you cannot be so presumptuous." The woman in the black dress who was chasing at the front snorted coldly, and then transformed into a black wild goose. With a flap of both wings at the same time, a large number of black feathers about a foot long shot into the air towards the wind blade.

Amidst a piercing explosion, the wind blade and the feather collided, and for a moment, it seemed evenly matched.

Seeing that the four people in front had taken advantage of the moment to widen the distance again, the black goose let out a strange cry and flapped its wings once more.

Instantly, more black feathers shot out like a rain of arrows, instantly shattering the wind blades blocking their path.

"Come on up!" came the woman's urging from among the black geese, whose size suddenly increased to tens of feet.

After the other demon lords landed on his back, the wild goose flapped its wings repeatedly, and its speed suddenly increased several times compared to before.

"Oh no! How did they catch up so quickly!" one of the Ming clan elders who was fleeing ahead exclaimed.

"Elder, let's use the Wind-Sounding Shuttle!" Lei Yunzi also reminded him.

"No, the Wind-Sounding Shuttle consumes too much of our energy and makes too much noise, making it very easy for them to track us down. That black woman is also a late-stage cultivator with extraordinary abilities; we might not be able to shake her off," the Great Elder of the Ming Clan said, his brows furrowed.

“But this is the Ancient Demon Realm. We can’t replenish our spiritual energy at all. If this continues, our magic power will be exhausted sooner or later, and then we will be at their mercy.” Looking at the black geese getting closer and closer, another elder of the Ming Clan also panicked.

The Ming Clan's Grand Elder naturally understood that his companion was telling the truth. After some deliberation, he gritted his teeth and said, "You use the Divine Shuttle to escort Lei Yunzi away first. I'll hold them off for a while."

"Elder, are you going to stay behind alone to cover the retreat? The enemy consists of eight Nascent Soul cultivators, and your supernatural powers are suppressed in this Ancient Demon Realm!" Lei Yunzi anxiously advised upon hearing this.

“I understand that, of course. If I weren’t being suppressed, I wouldn’t even consider these few as threats.” The Ming Clan’s elder’s eyes flashed with a fierce light, clearly indicating that he was no ordinary late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Don't hesitate any longer! Once you're out of danger, head straight back to land and wait for me where we entered the sea!"

After speaking, the Great Elder of the Ming Clan stopped and turned to face the group of Demon Lords chasing after him, successively summoning magical treasures such as command flags, small cauldrons, Ruyi scepters, golden bells, and flying swords.

Then he waved his arms like a windmill, continuously casting spells.

"Borrow the wind!"

"Pray for rain!"

"Sit on the fire!"

"Take the mountain!"

"Kanekihe!"

Five angry shouts came from the mouth of the Ming Clan's Great Elder, and the several magical treasures he released unleashed their power simultaneously.

The wind howled, the rain poured down, the flames roared, and the phantom of the mountains appeared. The power of metal and wood mingled and flowed within, as if gathering all the power in the world within a radius of a hundred miles, encompassing all eight demon lords behind them.

"Alienated Five Elements!"

"Elder, you mustn't!" Lei Yunzi's expression changed drastically upon seeing the spell the Elder was casting.

The other two elders of the Ming Clan also looked worried, but they were much more clear-headed than Lei Yunzi, knowing that now was not the time to be indecisive.

"Young Master, let's go!"

The two grabbed Lei Yunzi, simultaneously released their divine shuttles, and propelled them together. A sonic boom pierced the sky, and the three figures vanished instantly.

Seeing Lei Yunzi and the other two retreat, the Grand Elder's expression softened slightly, but then became extremely solemn again.

He spat out mouthful after mouthful of blood and essence, pushing the power of the technique to its limit.

The mutated power of the five elements grew increasingly violent, showing signs of reversing the course of events. The demon lords trapped within changed their expressions and unleashed their respective magical treasures to resist it.

After several hours, with the combined efforts of several demon lords led by the woman in the black dress, the violent, mutated power of the five elements finally dissipated after a series of deafening roars.

Although all the demon lords suffered minor injuries, they were not seriously harmed. However, looking around, they could not find the Grand Elder of the Ming Clan.

"To be able to trap us all by himself for several hours and then retreat safely, this old guy from another world really has some tricks up his sleeve!"

"Indeed, looking across the entire Holy Realm, those below the level of Holy Ancestor possess such supernatural powers are fewer than five people!"

"Even so, to be able to unleash such divine power just now, he must be in no good condition and must have already suffered a great loss of vitality. Venerable Yan, should we still give chase?" After discussing for a while, the group of ancient demon venerables looked at the woman in the black dress.

The woman in the black dress had a glint in her eyes. After thinking for a long time, she said, "Don't pursue a desperate enemy. That person from another world is far more powerful than me. If we split up to search, he might defeat us one by one. If we gather together, the chances of finding him in this vast Demon Source Sea are not high."

Moreover, the enemy may have more than one force. Currently, Demon Ape only has the four of them, including Illusion Venerable, guarding it. Two of them are injured, and it would be troublesome if they were to find an opening.

"Let's go back to Demon Ape Peak first. Whatever the purpose of these otherworldly beings, they're probably headed for Bitter Spirit Island. As long as we defend Demon Ape Peak, we can ensure our safety."

Upon hearing this, the demon lords had no other objections. After all, they were extremely wary of the Ming Clan's Grand Elder's power, and even if he was severely injured, they knew they wouldn't dare to face him alone.

"What about Venerable Lu? Should we remind him to be careful?" a Demon Lord asked hesitantly.

"Are you going to remind him? Don't forget he's been on the island for over fifty years. Once he's awakened, he'll definitely demand to be rotated out. Who will replace him?" another demon lord coldly retorted.

Upon hearing this, all the demon lords fell silent.

Even before, no one wanted to go to Bitter Spirit Island, let alone now.

Now, a powerful being from another world is eyeing Bitter Spirit Island. Furthermore, if a battle were to take place on Bitter Spirit Island, it would be the ancient demons who would be suppressed. If Demon Ape were to be careless and let the person from another world pass through, then those guarding the island would have absolutely no chance of survival.

"We killed one of those otherworldly beings. The one with the highest cultivation level must have been seriously injured and will definitely need to return to the mainland to recuperate."

After chasing for so long and going through a battle, we've all suffered some exhaustion, so let's go back to Demon Ape Peak to rest.

As for those few escaped beings from another world, they can send the message back to the mainland and let others handle it.

"And what about Venerable Lu..." The woman in the black dress glanced at everyone as she spoke.

"Let's discuss this further."

Upon hearing this, all the Venerable Ones breathed a sigh of relief.

The so-called "re-discussion" basically means there will be no further discussion.
