Facing Ouyang Chuge's sudden sword thrust, Su Xi felt an icy chill pierce her to the bone, instantly sending shivers through her entire body. Faced with such a powerful attack, her heart held no thought of resistance.
At this moment, she was like a three-year-old child facing a ruthless bandit, despair already welling up from the depths of her heart. Even if she possessed the strength to fight, she wouldn't dare to act.
However, just as Ouyang Chuge's dagger was about to pierce Su Xi, his figure suddenly vanished.
Then, without anyone seeing how he moved, he appeared before Li Fei, the dagger aimed directly at Li Fei's chest.
"Yi Hua Jie Mu" was his ultimate skill, allowing him to instantly change his attack direction in a very short period, catching people off guard and leaving them no time to react.
Seeing the dagger already at his chest, Li Fei showed no tension, instead letting out a cold, disdainful sneer.
Such low-level tactics could never harm him.
Moreover, he had already made a guess in his heart, knowing that Ouyang Chuge would never be someone who would obey so easily, and he had naturally been prepared.
Without any other movement, his gaze instantly sharpened.
"Buzz~"
Accompanied by a sound like a stone dropping into water, Ouyang Chuge's dagger could not advance another inch.
"Magic Enhancement!"
Ouyang Chuge shouted, and then the power in his entire body surged. Spiral-like air currents emanated from him, resisting Li Fei's obstruction.
The dagger moved forward another inch, getting closer to Li Fei's chest.
However, it was only a little closer, and nothing more.
Li Fei looked at Ouyang Chuge before him and couldn't help but shake his head, "I really didn't expect your ultimate skill to be useless. What a pity."
Ouyang Chuge was once a legend among their demon race, an existence he could never hope to reach. Yet now, he was so fragile before him.
All his moves, and yet he couldn't inflict any harm on him.
"So much effort. It seems you still don't understand me. Do you really think this is all I have?" Ouyang Chuge sneered, a confident smile on his face.
"What do you mean by that?" Li Fei looked down at Ouyang Chuge, wanting to understand his words.
Clearly, Ouyang Chuge had no other options, so how could he still pose a threat to him?
Was it a bluff, or was there truly something more?
Just as he was wondering what method Ouyang Chuge might have, he suddenly sensed a violent commotion behind him.
The moment he reacted, the "Yunshen Sword" was already embedded in his body. If his body's density wasn't great enough, he would have been pierced through by now.
???
Li Fei endured the pain in his body and looked back at Su Xi behind him in disbelief, not understanding how she had managed it without him noticing.
The fact that Su Xi could approach him so silently and break through his defenses was already highly abnormal.
When did this little ant become so powerful?
"Clang."
Li Fei pinched the "Yunshen Sword" in his chest between two fingers and forcefully pulled it out.
The immense force instantly made Su Xi lose her grip on the "Yunshen Sword," and she was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
"Pfft."
Unable to control the shockwave in her body, Su Xi spat out a mouthful of blood.
The excessive force caused Su Xi to suffer a backlash.
Li Fei gasped for air, his face looking grim, "Very good. Your strength has exceeded my expectations, but you have also successfully angered me."
Many cultivators of the same level, and even some more powerful individuals, had been unable to harm him. Yet today, he had been successfully ambushed by Su Xi, who was weaker than him.
If such a thing were to be known, he would surely be laughed out of existence and become an eternal laughingstock of the demon realm.
Therefore, to prevent this, everyone who knew about this incident today must die.
Li Fei extended his hand through the air, and a colossal black arm instantly appeared in the sky.
This black arm, which appeared in the sky, had bulging veins, and black lightning crackled around it, exuding a powerful oppressive aura.
Though the black arm was massive, its flexibility was akin to Li Fei's own arm, and it easily grasped Su Xi's neck, lifting her from the ground.
"Crack!"
Su Xi's neck made a sound of grinding bone, and an intense sensation of suffocation spread through her entire body, causing her unbearable pain.
Seeing Su Xi in danger, Ouyang Chuge immediately rushed forward. Su Xi was his only teammate, and he absolutely couldn't let anything happen to her now.
Otherwise, he would have even less chance of dealing with Li Fei on his own.
It seemed he would have to pay a price to save her today.
Ouyang Chuge's body launched forward like a catapult. In mid-air, he transformed into an arrow and shot towards the black arm.
"Boom!"
With a thunderous crash, the seemingly indestructible black arm instantly snapped. Su Xi regained her mobility.
Taking advantage of the brief respite, Su Xi gasped for air, her vision, which had turned black, gradually returning to normal.
In that moment, she had truly felt the threat of death.
Seeing that Ouyang Chuge still had the ability to destroy his materialized black arm, Li Fei's killing intent intensified, and he wanted to strike even more fiercely.
He knew he couldn't let Ouyang Chuge live, or their future would be dire.
After all, they had witnessed Ouyang Chuge's capabilities firsthand. If he still possessed such powerful offensive abilities now, Li Fei wouldn't risk it.
Otherwise, who knew what these people would do. It wouldn't be impossible for them to annihilate them all.
"You are more deserving of death than him," Li Fei roared, charging towards Ouyang Chuge.
Su Xi's life or death was no longer the most important thing. The only priority now was to eliminate Ouyang Chuge. He wouldn't hesitate to pay any price.
Ouyang Chuge, watching Li Fei charge at him, felt immense pressure. Facing such a formidable Li Fei, he was helpless at the moment.
So, he looked towards Su Xi, hoping for a miracle.
After all, Su Xi always had many possibilities, and perhaps she might have another solution this time.
However, Su Xi had suffered too severe a shock earlier and couldn't stand up, let alone respond.
Sensing Su Xi's immobility, despair flashed across Ouyang Chuge's face.
Was he truly doomed?
"Do you think we don't exist?" Instantly, a clear and cold voice rang out.
Immediately, Li Fei felt a powerful force surge, enveloping him. If he continued to advance, his life would surely be in danger.
Understanding this, Li Fei had to abandon his attack on Ouyang Chuge and retreat rapidly.
When he realized what had happened, he saw that the person blocking him was Lin Qing.
"Why do you still have magic power?" Li Fei looked at Lin Qing with confusion.
Others might not know, but he recognized Lin Qing.
Lin Qing's magic power had originally been sealed. However, the incredibly powerful attack just now was not something anyone could unleash.
Why was today so strange, filled with inexplicable events? Perhaps he hadn't checked the almanac before leaving home, hence encountering such oddities.
There was only one possibility: Lin Qing had recovered his magic power.
Lin Qing rubbed his fist, feeling the power surging within him, an ineffable excitement on his face.
Just moments ago, the magic power in his body had instantly returned like a tide. Although he hadn't fully recovered to his peak, it was more than enough to deal with the Li Fei before him.
Having been bullied by these demons for so long, his heart was filled with accumulated frustration. Now that he had the opportunity, he naturally wouldn't let it pass.
Although Li Fei hesitated when facing Lin Qing, who had recovered his magic power, he wasn't overly nervous.
He knew very well that the sect leaders of the Five Great Sects often found strange ways to temporarily restore their magic power.
However, this restored magic power couldn't last long. So, as long as they could endure this period, they would have nothing to fear. By then, Lin Qing and the others would be like fish on a chopping block, at his mercy.
Jiang Feng and the others looked at Lin Qing, who had suddenly recovered his magic power, with disbelief and asked, "Are you really alright?"
Lin Qing had used up all his means alongside them these past few days, and shouldn't have had any other strength left. Why, out of the blue, did he have magic power again?
"Of course, I'm fine," Lin Qing sneered, his tone filled with certainty.
He could feel that the magic power in his body wasn't fleeting like before, but was genuinely regenerating.
Since it was already regenerating, he naturally didn't need to worry about running out. The first step with magic power was to unleash it properly.
The others, receiving Lin Qing's firm assurance, showed expressions of joy.
Lin Qing's cultivation was far superior to Li Fei's, and even with the restriction of demonic energy, he could still handle him with ease. They finally had hope of surviving.
"You all take them and leave to seal the Scar of Heaven. I'll be right behind you," Lin Qing quickly made arrangements and instructed.
There were only three hours left until the final deadline. If they couldn't proceed further, the Scar of Heaven would truly be unsealable.
Therefore, for the safety of the entire human race, they had to seize the time as quickly as possible.
Daoist Master Mengxu also knew that this was not a time for sentimentality, so he nodded and led Su Xi and Ouyang Chuge towards the black hole behind Li Fei.
"Stop," Li Fei couldn't tolerate anyone leaving right before him and instinctively tried to intervene.
But before he could make a move, Lin Qing appeared before them, "Your opponent is me. Don't concern yourself with other matters right now."
"Those who meddle generally don't live long."
Even though Li Fei was anxious, with Lin Qing blocking his path, he couldn't do anything else.
"Since you're seeking death, don't blame me." Li Fei knew he couldn't afford to waste time, so he charged towards Lin Qing.
He had to deal with this person first.
After all, Lin Qing had only just recovered his magic power, and if he seized the opportunity now, he could still defeat Lin Qing.
Lin Qing, watching Li Fei charge at him, was not nervous.
With his previous cultivation, dealing with Li Fei would have been a piece of cake.
Su Xi took numerous pills along the way, suppressing her injuries.
After stabilizing her physical condition, she said, "These are pills to restore magic power. Take them quickly."
The supercomputer had synthesized these pills over a long period.
Now was the perfect time to use them.
Otherwise, who knew what dangers lay ahead.
More strength meant a greater ability to protect oneself.
