Chapter 963: Chapter 963: On a Knife’s Edge

The blood-colored beasts on the second-to-last layer are extremely numerous.

All of them are Left Dao Nascent Souls, and their number reaches an astonishing fifty!

To kill them, one can only spend time, killing a few and then running away, coming back to kill a few more, and slowly grinding them down this way.

Otherwise, a One-Orifice Nascent Soul rushing in would be beaten to death by the blood-colored beasts, becoming a delivered meal.

But where does Jiang Fan have time to slowly exhaust?

He immediately took out the Nine Phoenix Hairpin and said, "I hope you can do it just this once!"

Twice, when using the Nine Phoenix Hairpin against the Sky Demon Emperor, it failed.

Once, it was because his soul wasn’t strong enough; when the Phoenix was about to capture the Sky Demon Emperor’s soul, it failed.

Once, it was blocked by the shadow of the Dharma Seal Vajra.

If it fails again, he might as well throw this broken hairpin away.

He immediately channeled all his Soul Power to activate the hairpin.

A speck of blue light appeared, quickly growing into a Parasol Tree, and a Phoenix spread its wings and flew out, effortlessly penetrating the body of a blood-colored beast.

It very easily took away its soul.

Without reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, the soul leaving the body results in being unable to withstand external pressure, causing it to disintegrate on the spot.

The Phoenix then flew towards the other blood-colored beasts, quickly capturing the souls of one giant beast after another.

It seemed like more than fifty Left Dao Nascent Soul blood-colored giant beasts were rapidly reduced under the swift movement of the Phoenix.

They had nowhere to escape; in the blink of an eye, they were caught by the Phoenix and had their souls taken.

This scene left Yu Peiyuan in shock.

What kind of magical treasure is this?

Killing Left Dao Nascent Souls is like chickens pecking at rice, one mouthful at a time.

Meanwhile.

The sharp Sword Qi from the horizon rapidly approached.

Jiang Fan’s expression changed dramatically.

There’s not enough time!

He decisively took out the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain and said, "Everyone, hide behind the mountain in a moment!"

If there’s anything left that could block the Sword Qi, he could only rely on the hardness of the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain, coupled with the reduction of Sword Qi by the Five Magnetic Divine Light.

Aside from this, there was no other possibility.

Tweet!

The piercing sound of the high-speed Sword Qi was close by.

Jiang Wuya has arrived!

Fortunately, the Phoenix finally took away the last soul and flew back with dim feathers.

The space above their heads quickly twisted.

And Jiang Wuya was already close by, flicking his finger, sending a strand of Sword Light to attack.

There wasn’t enough time to be transported away!

They would be sliced into pieces mid-transport!

He gritted his teeth and activated the Five Magnetic Divine Light.

The appearance of the six-zhang Divine Light left everyone present powerless. That terrifying Sword Light forcibly pierced through the Divine Light’s coverage, only reducing its strength by two-tenths.

The remaining Sword Light mercilessly struck the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain.

Bang bang—

The ear-piercing sound of the Sword Light slicing through the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain could be heard.

The Sword Light didn’t penetrate the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain, but the contained power pushed the mountain fiercely towards the three of them.

With such force, even a slight impact would leave them shattered!

In that critical moment.

Jiang Fan decisively used the Void Flow Fire Force, grabbing everyone and leaping into the already twisted space.

Whoosh!

Before the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain crashed into pieces, they were transported away.

Subsequently, the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain was also wrapped by Space Power, dissolving all the force on it.

When Jiang Fan and the others appeared on the stone steps, the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain softly fell down.

Jiang Fan caught it, breaking out in a cold sweat and saying, "I almost got killed by my own Magic Artifact."

He didn’t have time to inspect the damage on the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain, hurriedly taking everyone into the last ladder space.

Jiang Wuya was right on their heels!

At the end of the ladder.

In the Azure Sky.

Feng Xinnie sat cross-legged on the clouds, the Divine Ring behind him quietly emitting gentle golden light.

Suddenly.

He abruptly opened his old eyes, a glint of light bursting forth.

He seemed to sense something.

Taking out a compass from his bosom, the needle on it remained still.

This was to detect Void Flow Thunder Force with a Magic Artifact.

"Did I sense it wrong?"

"Or is it another kind outside of Void Flow Thunder Force?"

Feng Xinnie gazed down at the countless steps below, his old eyes slowly narrowing.

Ten thousand steps.

When Jiang Fan saw over a hundred Left Dao Nascent Soul level blood-colored beasts rampaging in a city before him.

He felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

He could no longer activate the Nine Phoenix Hairpin, and Jiang Wuya would not stop.

A strand of powerful Sword Qi had already descended upon this space.

However.

Jiang Fan was slightly taken aback when that Sword Qi moved away.

It seemed to be pursuing something else.

Yu Peiyuan exclaimed in surprise, "I think I just saw Feng Yuanzong of the Great Yin Sect."

"Could it be... that it’s chasing after him?"

"That guy must have brought lots of Yin Corpses with him, surely he’s more evil than Junior Brother Jiang?"

Jiang Fan let out a slight sigh of relief, "Then Brother Feng will just have to endure a bit."

"Let’s quickly deal with the blood-colored beasts in front of us!"

Concubine Yunxia also joined the fray, but she wasn’t killing, only luring.

Jiang Fan and Yu Peiyuan were doing their utmost to kill.

A moment later.

Of the over a hundred blood-colored beasts, only fifty remained.

At this rate, they had a chance to successfully escape this space.

But at this moment.

A cloud of dark mist appeared on the horizon, rapidly rushing toward them.

Within the cloud, corpses were occasionally hurled out, falling towards the rear.

They were met with neatly sliced cubes from a streak of Sword Light.

Yu Peiyuan anxiously said, "Damn it, Feng Yuanzong is leading them straight to us!"

Within the dark mist, Feng Yuanzong shouted angrily, "It’s clearly you who brought Jiang Wuya here!"

"Now I’m giving him back to you!"

He couldn’t be blamed for being enraged.

He was methodically taking down the blood-colored beasts, confident in victory.

Who knew Jiang Wuya would barge in and head straight for him.

In desperation, he released Yin Corpses one after another to draw Jiang Wuya’s attention, barely clinging to life until now.

But his entire army of Yin Corpses had been mostly wiped out by Jiang Wuya.

Especially the three precious Nascent Soul corpses, which Jiang Wuya had also destroyed.

These were treasures of the Great Yin Sect, secretly entrusted to him by the Sect Master before setting out on the Heavenly Ascending Ancient Road.

His swift advance relied heavily on the three Nascent Soul corpses.

But who knew, halfway along, Jiang Wuya would appear!

The Yin Corpses were destroyed, and without eradicating the blood-colored beasts, he wouldn’t be considered to have successfully ascended the stairs.

Therefore, he couldn’t let Jiang Fan and the others successfully kill the blood-colored beasts, even at the risk of leading Jiang Wuya to them.

Snip!

A terrifying aftermath of Sword Light suddenly slashed from the sky.

Feng Yuanzong frantically threw out several Late Stage of Core Formation Yin Corpses, absorbing most of the Sword Qi, while a mass of condensed Yin Qi formed a skull on him, blocking another strike.

Still, it cost him most of his life, leaving him to fall from the sky in some pieces.

This was just the aftermath of the Sword Light!

A real sword strike!

A figure in a moon-white robe, with a Sword Box on his back, approached with the speed of a thunderbolt.

One moment he was on the horizon, the next moment, Jiang Wuya was only several miles away!

Seeing the remaining fifty giant blood-colored beasts in front of him, Jiang Fan felt a strong foreboding in his heart!

Gritting his teeth, he said, "Just remember to hold me up."

Using this pen had consequences that still made him shiver, but there was no other way.

He immediately lifted the Execution Pen to begin.
