But he still didn’t faint.
He slowly stood up, supporting his body against the ice gate, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. His dark red eyes remained fixed on the middle-aged man in front of him, the stubbornness and killing intent within them undiminished.
“mature!”
The anxious cries of the demon cultivators came from behind.
The demon cultivator of the third level of the Golden Immortal realm rushed to Su Yuqi’s side, wanting to help her, but Su Yuqi pushed him away.
“I’m fine.”
Su Yuqi’s voice was a little hoarse, but her tone remained firm, “You all retreat and don’t approach the battlefield.”
“But sir, you are injured”
I said, back off!
Su Yuqi’s voice suddenly became cold, containing undeniable authority.
The demon cultivator gritted his teeth and finally led the other demon cultivators to retreat to a corner of the passage, leaving the battlefield to Su Yuqi and the people from the Hall of Light.
The middle-aged man looked at Su Yuqi, his surprise turning into seriousness.
His signature move, “Holy Light Judgment,” was enough to finish off a cultivator of the third level of the Golden Immortal Realm, and could even threaten a cultivator of the fourth level of the Golden Immortal Realm.
Yet this mage, who was only at the peak of the third rank of the Golden Immortal Realm, was actually able to withstand the attack head-on. Even though he was injured, he did not lose his fighting ability.
“I retract my previous statement.”
The middle-aged man’s voice contained a hint of approval. “You don’t just ‘have a few tricks,’ but ‘have a lot of tricks. Unfortunately” He paused, his eyes glinting with greater killing intent, “No matter how many tricks you have, you will die here today.”
The golden scepter was raised once more, and the Stone of Light at the top of the scepter once again gathered holy light.
This time, the condensation process was faster, the holy light was more subtle, the scope of the light was smaller, but the power contained within was even more terrifying.
Su Yuqi gritted her teeth, and the Flame Demon Bloodline within her body surged wildly, squeezing out the last trace of spiritual power to condense into a fist-sized dark red fireball in her palm.
He knew he couldn’t hold on any longer.
His spiritual energy had been drained, and his vital essence had been depleted by more than half. The injury to his arm made every movement accompanied by intense pain.
But he couldn’t back down.
The heart of the Cold Abyss lies beyond the ice gate, the last hope of the Flame Demon bloodline.
He took a deep breath, condensing the violent flames in his palms to the maximum, preparing to face the middle-aged man’s next attack.
Just then, a scream sounded from the other side of the battlefield.
Su Yuqi’s heart sank. He turned his head quickly and saw a sight that made his eyes widen in horror.
The three demon cultivators at the Golden Immortal realm were engaged in a fierce battle with the cultivators from the Hall of Light, but they were outnumbered and surrounded by the cultivators of the Hall of Light, and were in a precarious state.
A level two demon cultivator of the Golden Immortal realm was besieged by three cultivators from the Hall of Light. His body was covered in countless scorched wounds as the holy light burned through his skin, suppressing the fierce flames within him layer by layer.
His movements became slower and slower, like a tiger surrounded by wolves. Although he is brave, he cannot afford to face too many opponents.
“Ah”
He finally succumbed to his injuries and his chest was pierced by a golden long sword.
Golden holy light flowed into his body from the wound, completely extinguishing the flames raging within him.
His body stiffened for a moment, then he slowly collapsed, dark red blood flowing freely from the wound on his chest, staining the ice blue ground dark red.
His eyes were still open, filled with resentment and anger, but his pupils were starting to dilate, and the breath of life was quickly fading.
“Third brother!”
Seeing this, the Golden Immortal Realm Level Three Demon Clan cultivator holding a dark red battle sword roared in anger and frantically swung his sword towards the Bright Hall cultivator who was attacking him.
The flames on the sword suddenly soared upwards, turning from dark red to crimson—a manifestation of him burning his life essence to the extreme.
With one slash, a first-rank Gold Immortal from the Blazing Hall was unable to dodge and was hit by a war sword slash across his shoulder, cleaving him in half, with golden blood and internal organs splattering all over the ground.
But this attack also consumed his remaining strength.
He staggered, and several Blazing Shrine cultivators who had rushed over from behind seized the opportunity, slamming several beams of holy light onto his back simultaneously.
His back was shattered into pieces, and the sound of his spine breaking could be clearly heard.
He coughed up dark red blood, fell forward and crashed onto the ice. He struggled several times but never woke up again.
“Second Brother!”
The last demon cultivator at the third rank of the Golden Immortal realm, who was holding a flaming iron chain, saw his two companions fall one after another, and tears of blood welled up in his eyes.
