Chapter 1351 - 716: Encountering Ao Qing Again_2
Seeing this scene, Jiang Shu became even more certain that the ones slaughtering each other here absolutely were not the Demon Lord personally making a move.
Perhaps it was merely methods from both sides, engaging in a magic battle across time and space.
"Yet even so, the might is still incomparably terrifying..."
A few shades of astonishment flashed in Jiang Shu’s eyes.
Even if it was not the Demon Lord himself striking in person, merely a pre-arranged method, at this moment it could still crush any Daoist Venerable.
Even the Taiwu Daoist Venerable present here, if he didn’t unleash his bottom-of-the-box trump cards or even break through his own limits, would absolutely have no confidence of holding out until this power was completely exhausted.
And amid the terrifying clash between both sides, Jiang Shu’s gaze roamed constantly, and then he clearly sensed that his avatar, Golden Horn, was right nearby!
Shifting his steps, Jiang Shu quietly approached the Taiwu Daoist Venerable, then used a secret technique to transmit his voice:
"The Demon Race should be in that region."
Watching the battle, a few cold gleams flashed through Taiwu Daoist Venerable’s eyes; he immediately sent a voice transmission to the other Daoist Venerables.
In an instant, every Daoist Venerable present tightened like bowstrings, already prepared to fight a desperate battle.

As time kept passing, the cross-space clash between True Dragon and Golden Crow neared its end; both sides were on the verge of being spent.
The Three-legged Golden Crow let out a long howl to the heavens, the flames on its body once again condensed, then suddenly erupted, like a sun meteor, charging at that True Dragon to kill it.
And as for the True Dragon, that phantom naturally yielded not an inch; countless bolts of lightning coiled around its body as it charged in to kill.
Thunder and fire intersected, two of the Great Daos most adept at slaughter between heaven and earth fiercely tore at each other in that instant.
Those watching could faintly glimpse what kind of scenery lay at the end of these two Great Daos.
All light and shadow instantly gathered together; boundless light, boundless heat erupted forth. Between heaven and earth it was as if only this one source of radiance remained, all else mere shadow.
No one knew how long passed, until with a bang, whether True Dragon or Golden Crow, both completely shattered.
"Is that... a Golden Crow Feather!?"
Just then, the Heavenly Puppet Sect Leader cried out in shock, his eyes filled with wild joy.
Ordinary Golden Crow Feathers, he naturally wouldn’t care about.
Even Golden Crows at Demon Venerable level, he had not never slaughtered.
But this before his eyes was a feather belonging to the Demon Lord’s existence.
A feather that might contain a portion of the Time Dao!
With just a glance, he saw a single strand of golden feathers drifting down from the sky, and the entire void seemed about to burn, enough to show how dense its Fire Dao aura was.
And at this very moment, a figure suddenly shot from ground to sky, fiercely grabbing toward that golden feathers, attempting to seize it.
"I ask fellow Daoists for your aid!"
The Heavenly Puppet Sect Leader spoke at once.
The Great Dao is contention.
If one does not contend now, then when?
As his words fell, the Dan Fu Sect Leader raised his hand and swept it; a torrent of talismans shot forth like a flood, directly toward that existence who had made a move.
Not only that, Taiwu Daoist Venerable pressed his hand down; the Earth Suppression Seal he had long prepared suddenly flew out.
That Treasure instantly expanded to the size of an Ancient Divine Mountain, suppressing down upon that figure.
The Hidden Sword Sect Leader also appeared abruptly; sword light tore open the vault of heaven, cleaving across with the posture of annihilating All Laws!
...
The many Daoist Venerables of the Human Clan struck out in unison, each beam of light an extreme manifestation of a Great Dao.
The one who had made a move to contend for the golden feathers had never anticipated there were powerhouses from the other side lying in ambush here.
The Long-armed Ape Venerable watched those killing methods and was inwardly shocked, wasting not the slightest instant in hesitation.
He immediately gave up contending for the golden feathers, and layer after layer of space-folding appeared on his body!
It was as if a spatial labyrinth emerged around him, protecting him.
This was likewise one of the Great Techniques inherited by the Long-armed Ape Monkey clan, Moring Qiankun!
Yet while this method was extremely effective against ordinary powerhouse ambushes,
the ones striking at him now were several Human Clan powerhouses; these were peak experts from various Major Sects, all possessing strength at Mixed Cave Venerable Late Stage. How could they be something he could defend against just because he wished to?
The Earth Suppression Seal came with an aura of unstoppable advance, brutally smashing apart the barriers of one spatial labyrinth after another, arriving directly before the Long-armed Ape Venerable.
"Isn’t this Taiwu that Daoist Venerable’s Treasure?"
The Long-armed Ape Venerable immediately recognized the origin of this Treasure, and naturally understood its fearsome nature. He could no longer care about anything else and roared.
His body expanded to over a hundred zhang, every piece of flesh and blood on his body exploding with power, then he threw out a punch.
Although his main cultivation was the Space Dao, this Long-armed Ape Venerable also dual-cultivated part of the Power Dao; this was him striking with full force, and he just barely managed to withstand the Earth Suppression Seal, falling into a deadlock.
Yet that he could withstand the Earth Suppression Seal did not mean he could withstand the methods of the others.
The talisman torrent unleashed by the Dan Fu Sect Leader erupted with power; countless spells poured out, every single talisman bearing a Venerable Level strike.
Perhaps only Early Stage Daoist Venerable, and for a powerhouse like the Long-armed Ape Venerable, among Venerables, this did not amount to much of a threat.
But that’s under the situation of a single talisman!
At this moment, how many has the Heavenly Talisman Sect Leader thrown out?
There were over dozens!
A single Early Stage Daoist Venerable strike may be nothing; but if that strike is multiplied several dozen times, then it becomes extremely terrifying!
In the blink of an eye, the Long-armed Ape Venerable, who was locked in stalemate with the Earth Suppression Seal, suffered heavy injuries; half his body was blasted away directly.
At the same time, a sword light suddenly tore through the sky, howling as it passed; wherever it went, all things turned white, as if all color had been directly severed.
The Long-armed Ape Venerable had already sensed this sword; with extreme difficulty, he manipulated the Qiankun to deflect it.
Even so, that one sword still sliced off his left hand.
And at this moment, the attacks of the other Human Clan powerhouses also struck.
The Demon Race had already reacted as well; the first to make a move, without question, was Ao Qing!
With a shake of his body, his vast dragon form roamed between heaven and earth, immediately helping the Long-armed Ape Venerable block the full-force attacks of the other Venerables, lest this Demon Venerable Late Stage powerhouse lose his life.
At this moment, Ao Qing also discovered just who it was that had launched the ambush from behind.
"So it’s you!?"
A low growl full of fury and manic rage came from his mouth; Ao Qing’s gaze only lingered on Taiwu Daoist Venerable for an instant, before immediately locking onto Jiang Shu.
In that instant, Ao Qing almost fell into berserk rage. Before this, he had already learned that Jiang Shu had infiltrated among them.
But this place was too important; it needed him to personally sit in town and suppress.
He basically could not leave. Otherwise, he would definitely have made a move personally to see if he could directly kill Jiang Shu.
After all, compared to the benefits of this place, for the Demon Race as a whole, Jiang Shu was without question of secondary importance.
Otherwise, even if he had to bear the Power of Heaven and Earth Rejection, Ao Qing would have pursued Jiang Shu for the sake of Golden Horn, a chase to the death.
After all, if Jiang Shu were allowed to cultivate the Power Dao to perfection ahead of time,
then even though Golden Horn possessed Ancestor Dragon Bloodline, he would almost be unable to cultivate the Power Dao to its deepest level.
It’s just that...
"Boy, in the end I did somewhat underestimate you, hmph! But today, this old man has come to understand."
"If you do not die, then let alone Golden Horn and the Dragon Clan—even the entire Demon Race will never know peace."
Ao Qing stared fixedly at Jiang Shu.
Without question, Jiang Shu was the great enemy of the Demon Race.
Last time, Jiang Shu fought Golden Horn and nearly killed this Dragon Clan crown prince with boundless prospects.
And the time before that, it was again because Jiang Shu penetrated deep into the Demon Race and nearly ruined the Demon Race’s grand plan, destroying the Ten Thousand Spirits Casting Venerable Array.
Fortunately, the Heaven-Burning Ancestor was still able to be of some use.
Because of the Ten Thousand Spirits Casting Venerable Array, Golden Horn even obtained Ancestor Dragon Bloodline and soared to the heavens in a single step.
Otherwise, that last grand plan of the Demon Race would have been essentially a failure.
"First the Ten Thousand Spirits Casting Venerable Array, then Golden Horn, and now even this place, this brat can force his way in."
Ao Qing’s gaze remained locked on Jiang Shu.
To the point that at this moment he even began to suspect,
whether this Jiang Shu before his eyes was the Demon Race’s enemy of fate.
Nearly every major operation of their Demon Race would end up encountering this brat, and it would always be destroyed!
