Ling Tian Sword God

At that thought, Ling Chen looked at Xuannv with some concern. If the super sects all stand by, her situation could become dangerous.

"Flower Demon, go fetch the Wood Emperor Order."

Dao Yi True Immortal looked at the black-clothed woman beside him and said indifferently.

"As you command!"

Flower Demon clasped her fists, and with a swift movement, she transformed into a shadow, darting fiercely towards the Great Mysterious Heavenly Dao’s area!

Her target was precisely Xuannv!

"Is this demon after the Wood Emperor Order?"

Xuannv’s eyebrows knitted slightly. When Dao Yi True Immortal had just breached the array formation, she suffered severe backlash as well. She was seriously injured and, upon leaving the Emperor’s Tomb, Ling Chen had told her the Wood Emperor Order was with her and to be extra cautious. Yet, she hadn’t expected trouble to arrive so quickly.

Flower Demon smiled sweetly at Xuannv, her lips curving slightly. "Little girl, hand over the Wood Emperor Order willingly, or else, it would be a pity for such a pretty face."

"How can the Wood Emperor Order be given to people like you?"

Xuannv shook her head. Even though the situation was unfavorable, she was not someone who would easily be coerced.

"Then don’t blame me for being rude."

A chill flashed in Flower Demon’s black eyes. Immediately, a White Bone Long Whip appeared in her palm. With black light surging from her arm, the White Bone Long Whip also fiercely swept towards Xuannv!

Just as the White Bone Long Whip was about to strike Xuannv, suddenly, a figure blocked in front of her. It was indeed Elder Len.

When Elder Len appeared, he spared no effort and condensed a Mysterious Light Array in front of him.

Bam!

The White Bone Long Whip struck the Mysterious Light Array, creating a deafening noise. Although the light array was not shattered, a spiderweb-like crack suddenly appeared on it.

"What a nuisance."

Flower Demon withdrew the whip and struck the heavily cracked light array again, shattering it. Then, the White Bone Long Whip also fiercely hit Elder Len, causing him to cough up blood and fly backward.

"Elder Len!"

Xuannv’s beautiful eyes narrowed involuntarily, and she immediately rushed forward to support Elder Len. However, she was shocked—despite Elder Len’s strength, he couldn’t withstand Flower Demon’s attack. Although it was due to Elder Len having just emerged from the Emperor’s Tomb and his energy being greatly depleted, even so, Elder Len was still a Five-fold Saint Realm powerhouse. Could Flower Demon also be a Middle-rank Saint?

If Dao Yi True Immortal made a move, who could hold him back for even a moment?

Without giving Xuannv much time to think, the White Bone Long Whip in Flower Demon’s hand swept out again at an astonishing speed, suddenly piercing towards Ling Chen’s chest!

In this situation, Xuannv could only retreat swiftly, drawing the Treasure Sword from her waist and slashing towards the White Bone Long Whip.

Clang!

Sparks flew, but at the moment the Treasure Sword and White Bone Long Whip touched, the whip coiled up like a nimble skeletal snake, wrapping around Xuannv’s sword inch by inch.

Suddenly, a vast force burst from the White Bone Long Whip, disarming Xuannv of her Treasure Sword.

As her sword fell, Xuannv’s face changed color. Her delicate hands formed a seal, creating a shield in front of her. However, the White Bone Long Whip moved faster, seemingly ignoring any space, and struck her chest like lightning.

Gush!

Her white clothes stained with blood, Xuannv vomited a mouthful of fresh blood, her body shooting backwards like a cannonball, crashing into a small mountain and shattering it to pieces, causing it to collapse.

"Xuan’er!"

Just as Elder Len was about to assist Xuannv, she was already surrounded by two ghost-like black shadows, preventing her from moving even a step forward, let alone having the chance to assist Xuannv.

Bam!

Debris exploded, and dust rose. From within it, Xuannv’s figure slowly emerged. However, there was a distinct whip mark on her, flesh and blood mangled, and she was severely injured.

Her entire body was covered with bloodstains, and her originally delicate face now seemed a bit disheveled, full of blood and dust. Her previously otherworldly aura now appeared a bit fallen, deeply touching those from the major sects.

Among the disciples of the super sects, many were admirers of Xuannv in daily life. But at this moment, apart from feeling regretful, not a single one showed any sign of stepping in to help. First, the sects wouldn’t allow it. Second, the formidable enemy made them lose any desire to intervene; stepping in now would be akin to seeking death.

"I told you earlier, hand over the Wood Emperor Order and you could avoid some grievances, but you wouldn’t listen."

Flower Demon’s charming face was full of mockery. "Tsk tsk, now look at you, even your pretty face is ruined. My heart aches just seeing it..."

As she spoke, black True Qi surged from Flower Demon’s arm, gathering onto the White Bone Long Whip. An immensely powerful black energy surged upon it, emitting a "sizzle" of thunder, indicating the extreme flow of True Qi.

Seeing the black lightning flowing on the White Bone Long Whip, Ling Chen frowned. If struck by this whip, he’d likely be in grave danger even if he survived.

He could no longer stand by.

Even if Shen Bingxin opposed, he had to act.

Just as he was about to move, a flawless, jade-like hand suddenly grasped his arm; it was Xia Yunxin.

"Perhaps we should wait and see."

In Ling Chen’s astonished gaze, Xia Yunxin’s beautiful eyes sparkled slightly, she said calmly.

Hearing this, Ling Chen immediately looked towards Xuannv’s position, his eyes narrowing slightly. He noticed that Xuannv’s aura was undergoing an astonishing transformation. At this moment, within a ten-thousand-meter radius centered on Xuannv, the Heavenly Earth Energy was rapidly converging, flowing towards Xuannv’s location.

And Xuannv’s body, like a vortex, greedily devoured all this Heavenly Earth Energy, akin to a starving beast devouring its prey.

"Is she attempting to break through to the Holy Realm?"

Witnessing such a scene, Ling Chen’s eyelid twitched. Could Xuannv be planning to resolve this perilous situation by breaking through to the Holy Realm in such dire circumstances?
