第五卷 天云十二州 第一千零二十章 离合期修士

Three demon races, all at the中期 Transformation Phase,

Their faces were filled with murderous intent! Tian Xiaojian's mouth quivered slightly; this time, things really didn't look good. Although he was confident that three mid-Transformation Period demon races wouldn't be able to defeat him, if they couldn't, he still had complete confidence in escaping. However, the location was deep within demon territory, and leaving Black Canyon Ridge wasn't an easy task.

The three ancient beasts indeed did not take Tian Xiaojian seriously; a mere初级元婴 cultivator could be easily killed. They would first devour him alive before extracting his soul to refine it. The taste of being without an infant must be quite delightful for a cultivator.

"Attack!"

A demon with leopard spots on its face, but a one-foot-long horn growing from its head, shouted loudly. A yellow light shot out from his mouth, and the other two demons also revealed their treasures.

As the combined attack seemed imminent, Tian Xiaojian sneered coldly as ghostly mists surged forth like ink. The impending battle suddenly took an unexpected turn...

Although it was evening, the sun had not yet set, but the sky suddenly turned dark. A faint light appeared a thousand feet away, initially only the size of a palm, but gradually growing clearer.

Two figures emerged from the space rift and the ancient array. At first, they were blurry, but as time passed, their outlines became more distinct: one man and one woman, both cultivators.

The man was around forty years old, dressed in Daoist robes, with an elegant appearance that suggested he was a transcendent being. The woman, on the other hand, appeared younger, perhaps twenty or so, her features neither beautiful nor ugly but rather average. She wore a green dress that emphasized her slender figure.

With the two cultivators appearing, the surrounding anomalies gradually subsided, and both the space rift and the ancient array vanished. The three demons cautiously flew over; their presence of power left them in awe. Indeed, they were higher realm cultivators from the Upper Realm.

"Salute your senior! It is a great fortune to meet a spirit realm cultivator. If you have any instructions for us, we will do our utmost and not disappoint," said the leopard-spotted demon with a sycophantic smile, his demeanor completely different from when he faced Tian Xiaojian earlier.

The female cultivator of the Separation Realm looked over the three demons: "It's quite fortunate that I met you three friends just as we arrived in the lower realm. We do have some matters to request your assistance with."

"Please speak," said the three demons, delighted by their newfound hope.

Although they were driven by greed, they still harbored some unease. Now it seemed their worries were unfounded.

"We are new here and don't know much about this place..."

"This is easy; tell us what you need to know, and we will speak without reservation," said the female cultivator. "If you do not mind, please accompany us to our abode for a chat."

The green-haired cultivator quickly agreed, thinking that he had an excellent opportunity to curry favor with a Separation Realm cultivator from the spirit realm.

Just as he was relishing his good fortune, the voice of the female cultivator rang out: "No need for such trouble. Just let us use your lives to search your minds, and it will be much simpler."

She raised her slender hand, and a fine purple light shot out, transforming into a pair of sharp bone claws that lunged at the three demons.

"Ah-!"

The three demons, who had been smiling just moments ago, were now in shock. They could not dodge in time; the Separation Realm cultivator's abilities far surpassed their own.

In the world of cultivation, each realm brought about significant power increases, making the difference between realms akin to that between heaven and earth.

Two of the demons fell under the control of the bone claws, but the leopard-spotted demon, due to his innate talents, reacted much faster. He used a strange evasive technique and retreated quickly.

"Run? Do you think you can escape?"

A sneer appeared on the woman's lips as she lightly flicked her finger, sending a thin purple light flying towards the leopard-spotted demon's chest.

The demon's flight slowed, eventually stopping completely, trapped in mid-air. His belly began to swell, not just his belly but also his head and limbs, growing larger like an overinflated balloon until it burst into bloody fragments.

Although Cloud Province was a holy land for cultivation, mid-Transformation demons were still considered local overlords. However, facing this spirit realm female cultivator from another realm, they seemed as helpless as infants, unable to do anything in return.

The woman then waved her hand, and the bone claws returned. She tossed one demon to her companion before both of them used soul-searching techniques. This was the simplest way to understand the world.

In just a short time, the two cultivators' hands glowed, and the remaining demons disintegrated into ash.

Half a tea cup had passed since they arrived in the human realm, but something strange happened: their spiritual energy rapidly weakened, causing them to drop from Separation Realm to late-stage Core Formation, mid-stage Core Formation, and finally early-stage Core Formation. They did not use any敛气 techniques, indicating that they were not hiding their strength.

"Looks like the rumors are true; since a hundred thousand years ago when the laws of heaven and earth changed, coming here always comes with great costs," said the elegantly dressed man.

"Hmph, what's the big deal? Our cultivation will drop temporarily but can be restored once we return to the spirit realm. And as long as we complete our tasks, the generous rewards will ensure our thousands of years of cultivation without worry," replied the woman dismissively.

"True enough, but in this human realm, we can only use Core Formation power. Even if I train, my strength would max out at late-stage Core Formation, which is a bit troublesome."

"I understand. Fortunately, other intruders from our realm will also face similar restraints, so there's no need to worry too much," said the woman, her brows furrowing and then relaxing.

"However, why did that thing appear in the human realm? Did we get the wrong information?"

"I don't know, but since my superior gave such instructions, and even ancient demons are involved, it must be true based on rumors," replied the woman after some thought.

"Hmm. But our primary task aside from seizing that thing is to find the princess as soon as possible. If anything happens to Princess Xin Yue, both of us will face eternal damnation."

At this point, fear appeared on the man's face.

The woman nodded in agreement, her expression turning serious.

"By the way, besides those three demons, another human cultivator seemed to have witnessed our arrival. Should we eliminate him as well?"

"It's better not to complicate things. You managed to easily defeat the three mid-Transformation demons because you were still using Separation Realm abilities when crossing realms. Now that we are Core Formation, although various secret techniques might be beyond this realm's cultivators, they're on the same level. Moreover, Black Canyon Ridge seems to have many late-stage Transformation demons, so making too much noise could attract their attention, and even us might face some trouble," said the man after considering.
