Chapter 701: Chapter 695: Suppressing the Divine Mirror and Forcibly Seizing the Three-legged

For a moment, all parties involved in the battle were shocked!

They had never imagined that Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen, having just arrived not long before, could have successively slain two Demon Immortals!

These were Demon Immortals who had overcome tribulations to achieve immortality, not cabbages that could be easily picked from the ground. How could it be so easy to kill them?

Even if Elder Long Qian were in his prime and facing just one of them in a fight, he would still need quite an effort to slay them.

There was even a good chance of them slipping away if he were not careful.

After all, Demon Immortals had no shortage of life-preserving methods, and their various, unpredictable Demon Path Divine Powers made them difficult to guard against. If they were set on fleeing, even Elder Long Qian, who was a realm above them, might not be able to hold them back.

Yet, through cooperative effort, in just a few breaths, these two had managed to slay the two Demon Immortals.

Part of it was certainly because they had underestimated the combat strength of these two, treating them as ordinary opponents. But for them to be so powerful that they didn’t even have a chance to use their survival strategies to flee was rather terrifying.

So whether it was Elder Long Qian, Soul Devouring Demon Venerable, or the Three-Legged Crow, they could not help but take a second look, casting their gazes over, wanting to know if these two had three heads and six arms, what made them so extraordinary compared to ordinary people!

However, different from the surprise and wariness in the hearts of the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable and Three-Legged Crow, Elder Long Qian was ecstatic.

No matter what, he had not expected that having once protected Qin Feng on his way, and upon losing track of him, had followed the guidance of the Gui Ling Ancestor to wait in the Desolate Wilderness, and in just a short one or two years of separation, Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen had grown to such an astonishing level, slaying two Demon Immortals as if it were nothing!

If he hadn’t witnessed it with his own eyes, he absolutely wouldn’t have believed these two could have achieved such a feat.

After all, when he had lost track of Qin Feng, Qin Feng’s cultivation had only been at the Dharma Image Realm, and Li Miaozhen was not that powerful when she went to the Otherworld in search of her master Luo Zhancheng.

But now, not only were they enveloped in rich Immortal Energy and had unfathomable auras, but their methods were also formidably potent.

With every gesture, Qin Feng revealed his powerful Divine Skills, punching through a Demon Immortal’s defense and stomping another till his head bled, creating an excellent opportunity for Li Miaozhen to strike down the enemy.

When it comes to killing power, Li Miaozhen’s White Tiger Saber was truly fearsome.

Although Qin Feng used his fists as hammers to unleash the Void Shattering Hammer with great might, it could only break through a Demon Immortal’s defensive Divine Power and wasn’t enough to threaten the life of a Demon Immortal. What actually caused the Demon Immortals’ demise was the incredibly sharp White Tiger Blade Energy from Li Miaozhen!

One slash and nothing was left!

Once the Blade Energy entered the body, their life force was severed!

If not for Li Miaozhen’s White Tiger Saber cutting the two Demon Immortals in half, obliterating their physical bodies’ life force, finishing off the two Demon Immortals would have required a significant effort.

These two were so formidable!

Even if Elder Long Qian couldn’t believe it, when the event unfolded right before his eyes, he had to accept the fact.

It made him reflect in his heart that these two were truly deserving of being Master of Qi Luck. In such a short period, they had managed to grow to such an extent. He didn’t know how else to describe his feelings right now, other than being greatly favored by the Heavenly Dao.

Thinking back to how he had painstakingly devoted himself to cultivation for thousands of years before he had his chance to shock everyone, passing the Heavenly Tribulation to achieve immortality, shocking countless doubters.

But when compared to the achievements of these two, his once proud accomplishments seemed as different as heaven and earth, leaving him feeling somewhat ashamed.

Both were on the path of cultivation, so why was there such a huge gap?

Nevertheless, he quickly adjusted his state of mind.

After all, as the Sect’s Supreme Elder, he wouldn’t harbor jealousy just because a junior from the Sect had accomplished something great!

Besides, the fact that Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen were powerful was a boon both for him and the Sect.

Without going into the distant future, just the current battle alone, having two more powerful Immortals could have a world-changing impact on the situation.

He had originally been fighting alone against several Demon Immortals and that Three-Legged Crow, and even with the help of Spiritual Beasts, he found it extremely difficult. Had he not been the type adept at enduring silently, amassing a profound and thick foundation since achieving the Heavenly Immortal status through quiet cultivation, he might not have been able to withstand the assault for so long.

But ultimately, two fists could hardly match four hands, not to mention that those two opponents possessed powerful treasures.

Whether it was the Demon Tower floating above the head of the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable or the Eightfold Mirror hanging in front of the Three-Legged Crow, both held boundless power.

As someone from the Beast Taming Sect, although he also possessed Immortal Artifacts, they were far from the level of the two treasures his opponents wielded.

At this critical juncture, Qin Feng and Li Miao Zhen arrived with overwhelming might, slaying two Demon Immortals as soon as they appeared on the scene. They not only broke his impending defeat but also intimidated the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable and that Three-Legged Crow, gaining the strength to counter-attack!

“Elder Uncle Master Long Qian, fear not, I am here to help you vanquish the enemy!”

Before Elder Long Qian could even call out to the two for a united front, Li Miao Zhen already eagerly swung her sword at the Three-Legged Crow.

She not only enjoyed fighting but also particularly liked opponents with unique abilities.

And this Three-Legged Crow, being a visitor from another world with a strange aura, and that Eightfold Divine Mirror around its neck made her thrilled.

So, after slaying the two Demon Immortals, she shouted out loud and lunged forward, swinging her sword at the Three-Legged Crow.

However, what she shouted made Elder Long Qian feel quite depressed.

When had he ever been afraid?

After all, he was a dignified presence at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal, a famous Supreme Elder of his Sect. Even if he truly could not overcome these few Demon Immortals, he was confident he could retreat with his whole body intact. But in the mouth of this girl, Li Miao Zhen, he had become someone who feared his opponents?

Afterward, Qin Feng approached with a hint of helplessness on his face. While flying rapidly toward Long Qian, he offered a bow, “Ancestor Martial Uncle, please don’t blame her. My older sister apprentice has a straightforward nature and sometimes speaks too directly. I hope you, being the magnanimous person you are, will not take offense to her words!”

“…”

Elder Long Qian’s mouth twitched.

This kid’s words also didn’t go through his brain. What do you mean she speaks directly? Are you actually agreeing with what she said?

But seeing Qin Feng bow and then fly towards Li Miao Zhen, Elder Long Qian ultimately just shook his head and said no more, turning to face the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable who was looking terribly pale.

In terms of combat strength and cultivation, this demon was not even on par with him. It was only the Demon Tower in his hands that showed great power which allowed him to contend with him.

However, the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable had been injured by his surprise attack earlier. To kill him, he had forcibly suppressed his injury and powered the Demon Tower. Even later with the assistance of the Three-Legged Crow and two other Demon Immortals supporting him, which allowed him not to exert his potential as before, this series of actions had nonetheless left him in a not-so-good state.

Especially after witnessing Qin Feng and company decisively slaying two Demon Immortals and then holding off the Three-Legged Crow, the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable was feeling quite troubled to be left alone facing Elder Long Qian and two Demon Immortal Realm Spiritual Beasts.

Still, glancing at the Three-Legged Crow, he ultimately couldn’t bear to flee just yet.

If he escaped alone, he would have a high chance of survival, but it could very possibly cost the life of the Three-Legged Crow.

This Three-Legged Crow was different from him; having just arrived in Biluo, it was unfamiliar with the situation and unaware of the various Sects and powers. Even if it managed to escape the encirclement of Long Qian and the others, it would most likely expose itself due to erratic flight and would be detected by another Immortal who would perceive it as an invading Demon God and slay it.

After all, the aura emanating from the Three-Legged Crow was clearly unnatural, utterly out of place in this world. It was only relying on the mirror hanging on its chest for concealment; otherwise, it would have long been sensed by the Heavenly Dao and incinerated on the spot by the Heavenly Punishment.

Ever since the Spring and Autumn Ancestor harmonized with the Heavenly Union, the operation of the Heavenly Dao had become much more stringent than before the Ancient Great Tribulation, no longer easily allowing powerful lifeforms from other worlds to emerge within this realm.

The Soul Devouring Demon Venerable did not care for the life and death of this crow, but if the Great Powers of the Heavenly Demon Realm wished to pinpoint Biluo, they would have to rely on this Three-Legged Crow—and at the very least, they couldn’t let the Eightfold Mirror fall into the hands of the Righteous Path Cultivators, as it would definitely reveal something amiss.

But what if, hypothetically, the Three-Legged Crow managed to escape safely and found a secure place to hide?

Even then, when the mightiest warriors of Heavenly Demon Realm and a few other Great Worlds used the Eightfold Mirror to relocate Biluo Great World upon their return, the credit would certainly not go to the absent Soul Devouring Demon Venerable.

After all, he wouldn’t be present. Would there be Great Powers going out of their way to reward him by tracing things back to their origins just for him?

For various reasons, even though the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable felt inclined to flee, he managed to suppress the urge and did not leave. Instead, he hoped that the Three-Legged Crow would demonstrate astonishing combat power and defeat Qin Feng and his companion. At the very least, the crow should possess the ability to escape, and once they both managed to flee, they just had to hold out until the arrival of powerhouses from the Heavenly Demon Realm and other Great Worlds, after which he could rest easy.

However, the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable soon realized that his hopes were misplaced.

Not only did the Three-Legged Crow fail to overcome Qin Feng and his partner, but it also started to retreat in defeat not long after the battle began, cawing strangely, feathers flying chaotically—it was quite the sorry sight!

“Worthless!”

The Soul Devouring Demon Venerable could not help but curse inwardly.

He had thought this creature was impressive, yet now it was performing so poorly, unable to even fight two combatants of the True Immortal Realm. How could it dare to consider itself an Upper Envoy?

Despite his disdain, he couldn’t just stand by and watch the Three-Legged Crow die.

Even if it perished, he had to retrieve the Eightfold Divine Mirror used for location before doing anything else.

Otherwise, wouldn’t this sacrifice have been in vain? And there might not be another opportunity like this in the future.

Left with no choice, the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable had to once again push his potential and unleash Boundless Magic Power, summoning the Demon Tower in an attempt to repel Elder Long Qian.

Regrettably, Elder Long Qian was not what he had been before; he was now not only free from worry about his rear but had also the help of his two Spiritual Beasts of the Demon Immortal Realm to outnumber the crow. Even if he didn’t dare to directly confront the attack from the Demon Tower and temporarily retreated, his Spiritual Beasts would entangle the enemy for him, preventing the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable from escaping.

Thus, they were stuck in a deadlock, with the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable roaring in anger but unable to break free from Elder Long Qian’s entanglement.

Elder Long Qian was not in a hurry; time was on his side. If the battle dragged on, not only would it attract the investigation of other Immortals, but the burst of power from the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable’s continual exertion had its limits too!

Once the demon’s energy began to decline, that would be his chance to slay the devil!

Meanwhile, Li Miaozhen was as fierce as a tiger, her swordplay like a dragon, slashing after slashing, aiming precisely for the Three-Legged Crow’s neck, attempting to sever the oddly breathy head of the crow and snatch the Divine Mirror hanging around its neck.

She had already noticed the uniqueness of the mirror when its light had first caught her attention. Realizing there was something special about the Eight-Syllable Divine Mirror, she wanted to take it and examine it herself.

A few dozen feet away, Qin Feng supported from the sideline. While Li Miaozhen’s sword strikes were relentless, Qin Feng deployed Divine Power after Divine Power to break the Three-Legged Crow’s counterattacks, using powerful defenses to handle the Divine Light emitted from the Eightfold Mirror.

In actuality, the Eightfold Mirror, as a Divine Artifact wielded by those of the Great Power Realm, surely possessed more capabilities than what was being demonstrated; it was unlikely to be incapable of breaking through the defenses of two True Immortals.

Even if Qin Feng and his companion were able to fight above their level, with defenses comparable to those of a Heavenly Immortal, to the truly powerful, this was still trivial; a casual attack from them could shatter such defenses.

But the Eightfold Divine Mirror was not the Three-Legged Crow’s artifact; instead, it merely served as the subordinate who held treasures for a great deity, similar to a Daoist Boy serving an Elder of Daoism. It naturally couldn’t unleash the full power of such a treasure.

There was also the fact that it had been forcibly transferred through the Endless Void. Even with a powerful figure aiding from behind, how could that entity compare to Grandmaster Ancestor Taixuan?

Grandmaster Ancestor Taixuan could move the entire Biluo Great World to this Star Domain, while that powerful being faced great difficulty merely transmitting the Three-Legged Crow along the altar. In the end, the energy attached to it to guard it was exhausted, and only by tapping into its own strength it barely managed to emerge from the Demon Mirror on the altar, but that too had drained it considerably.

Therefore, the state of the Three-Legged Crow was extraordinarily poor at this moment, leaving it unable to exert even a fragment of the Eightfold Mirror’s true power.

Their combined effort to surround and kill Elder Long Qian wasn’t apparent earlier, but now, with just the power of one crow resisting the assault from both Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen, how could it withstand the onslaught resembling a violent storm?

Indeed, in such a state, it dared not use the energy-draining Eightfold Mirror anymore; otherwise, if its power was fully depleted, wouldn’t it become sitting duck meat, completely at the mercy of these two?

And without the Divine Mirror to protect its body, it was even less of an opponent!

So it wasn’t long before they had left it wounded all over, feathers scattered in disarray.

“Caw…”

The Three-Legged Crow glared with bloodshot eyes, staring intently at the two before it.

Especially the woman wielding the saber—she instilled a primal fear from the depth of its soul.

The continuous slash of Sword Energy laden with the annihilating Geng Metal Energy was relentlessly burrowing into the several wounds left on its body by the previous strikes of the White Tiger Blade. Even though it forcefully suppressed the injuries, the pain it endured was unbearable.

It wanted to escape!

However, Li Miao Zhen’s blade attacks were relentless, never giving it a chance to flee.

Moreover, Qin Feng, with a fierce gaze, was unleashing various Divine Power Magic, and at this moment, his ten fingers released streaks of Golden Light, which formed a net in the sky and on the ground around it, slowly squeezing the space in which it could move.

Qin Feng was learning the tactics of weaving a net from the Ghost-Faced Spider.

The only difference was that although he could learn Divine Skills from the Main Spirit Beast under his command, he lacked spinnerets as appendages and couldn’t spray silk.

Fortunately, he had the endlessly variable Ruyi Golden Light.

Transforming the Ruyi Golden Light into threads, not only were they incredibly tough, they also possessed an exceptionally sharp attribute, making the Three-legged Golden Crow dare not touch them lightly.

But if it simply watched on, by the time it was trapped, it would completely lose any chance of escape!

Thus, it grew increasingly anxious in its heart, and couldn’t help but feel regret.

At first, when it was sent here by the Heavenly Shining Great God, its heart was filled with excitement. It thought that its master was taking care of it, and as long as a Great Power from the Heavenly Demon Realm pinpointed this world and descended, it would certainly reap benefits, perhaps even being granted a drop of Essence Blood by the Golden Crow Royal Family, allowing it to possess a noble Bloodline akin to the Demon Emperor’s.

If it could refine a whiff of Sun True Fire and turn its feathers golden, it would genuinely resemble a member of the Golden Crow Clan from the look of it.

Unfortunately, all these beautiful dreams had now been shattered by Li Miao Zhen’s White Tiger Blade.

After being pierced through the wing by Li Miao Zhen’s blade once again, the Three-legged Crow could no longer withstand the terror in its heart, and suddenly raised the Eightfold Mirror, preparing to connect with the strand of Divine Sense belonging to the Heavenly Shining Great God within the mirror.

This was meant for sensing and positioning by the Heavenly Shining Great God, who had warned it before arriving that, except in certain special places, it must not disturb her for she was, after all, a Great Power from Another world, and her aura, if leaked, could easily be sensed by the will of the Heavenly Dao.

But now, it could not care less about all that.

If it lost its life, the Eightfold Mirror would definitely fall into the hands of cultivators in this world, and then it would still fail to serve its purpose.

Since that was the case, it might as well use it to defend against its opponent and snatch a slim chance of survival for itself.

If the Eightfold Mirror could no longer be used for positioning, it didn’t matter; after all, the Heavenly Shining Great God could not reach this place. It could completely claim this immensely powerful Divine Artifact for itself and rely on it to enhance its own strength.

However, both individuals it was facing were formidable foes.

Qin Feng was meticulous in thought, having been on guard against this creature’s desperate retaliation when driven to a dead end, so he was well-prepared.

Li Miao Zhen was even more perceptive, sensing an aura emanating from the Divine Mirror, an aura that made her heart skip a beat. Realizing the seriousness, she immediately attacked with her Long Sword, swift as lightning, and slashed towards the head of the Three-legged Crow.

Meanwhile, Qin Feng suddenly widened his eyes, a powerful oppressive force targeting the Three-legged Crow, shaking its spirit for a moment and slowing its movements.

Although it quickly regained its senses, it could not completely dodge Li Miao Zhen’s White Tiger Blade and was slashed across its neck, nearly beheading it.

The Three-legged Crow was still shocked when it saw Qin Feng clap his hands sharply, causing numerous Golden Lines spread throughout the Void to fall upon it, binding it tightly in the midst of the chaos.

Then Qin Feng roared loudly, suddenly transforming into a giant a hundred feet tall, seizing its beak with one hand and its head with the other, while behind him emerged nine huge Evil Dragon Skulls, each biting into different parts of its body, forcibly dragging it towards the Demon Refining Pot.

The Three-legged Crow struggled desperately, but having spent too much energy passing through the Endless Void, it lacked strength at this moment. How could it free itself from Qin Feng’s grasp, especially with nine giant dragon mouths biting firmly, refusing to let go.

More crucially, just as it raised the Eightfold Mirror to unleash its power, it was interrupted by the two, and Qin Feng’s Spiritual Shock had muddled its brain for an instant. Now being shoved strongly by his power towards the Demon Refining Pot, even calling upon the Eightfold Mirror for protection was too late.

At this moment, with its mouth pinched shut by Qin Feng, it couldn’t even cry out before being dragged into the Demon Refining Pot.

With a hand gesture from Li Miao Zhen, the White Tiger Blade spun in the air, turning into a beam of Sword Light that pressed down on the Eightfold Mirror.
