第一千七百六十五章 逆转战局

The battle had turned decisively in favor of the Sea Clan.

On the side of the Sea Clan, tens of thousands of狂 Shark beasts aided their cause. In terms of strength, they far surpassed the Human Clan.

Almost every cultivator faced a group of sea creatures in attack. Their chances of winning were slim to none; if they could escape, it would be considered a miracle. The cries of pain filled his ears as the chaos intensified.

Despite the chaotic situation, the disease demon under Lin Xuan's control had been eliminated, but few noticed this fact.

Lin Xuan released his divine consciousness.

Soon, he gained a clear understanding of the chaotic scene.

It seemed that there were many enemies, but actually, eliminating those at the Separation Stage would not be as difficult as imagined. With a flicker of thought, Lin Xuan moved swiftly to act.

Several miles away, flames shot up into the sky. A beautiful woman in her thirties was being surrounded by several sharks. Although she had reached the Separation Initial stage, the three sharks were at the same level and posed a significant threat.

In one-on-one combat, she wasn't afraid, but when surrounded, her chances of winning were zero. Her fire attribute divine technique was completely outmatched by the fierce sharks. Would this be the end for her today?

The woman's face showed desperation, but even as she struggled to escape, it seemed impossible. What should she do?

Even ants seek survival. Despite knowing that continuing would lead to certain death, she had no choice but to fight on.

Just when she was at a loss, a bright light appeared in the distance.

It was a streak of lightning rushing towards them with incredible speed. It had just been on the horizon and now it was right before their eyes.

Boom!

A terrifying spiritual pressure suddenly emerged, surging like a tidal wave.

The woman's expression changed dramatically. Such speed and pressure far exceeded what a Separation Stage cultivator could achieve. The identity of the opponent was clear: a Profound Origin cultivator!

---

The disease demon of the Shark Clan!

The middle-aged woman had given up all hope; the current situation couldn't be handled, and with such a powerful cultivator present, she had no chance of survival.

Rather than suffer at the hands of others, it would be better to end her own life.

With a look of resolve in her eyes, the woman took a deep breath and prepared to self-destruct. Although this wouldn't threaten a Profound Origin cultivator, it could buy some time by taking out several sharks as collateral.

Just as she was about to act, green light flashed, and several sharks were torn apart.

"What...?"

The woman was taken aback. Realizing something, her face lit up with joy. Before her stood not an ancient sea creature but a human cultivator in his twenties or thirties. Although he looked ordinary, the spiritual pressure emanating from him was unmistakably that of a Profound Origin cultivator.

"Junior Mu Ji pays respects to Senior and thanks you for saving my life; I will never forget your kindness," she said with joy, though her mind was filled with questions. The Vast Ocean region might be desolate, but the presence of a Profound Origin cultivator here was unexpected.

Could it... be an envoy from the Holy City?

Her expression became even more respectful as she thought this.

However, Lin Xuan ignored her and coldly said, "The disease demon is dead in my hands."

Without waiting for a response, he transformed into a streak of lightning and vanished without a trace.

Seeing his figure recede, the middle-aged woman's face was blank. She murmured, "The disease demon is dead." The meaning behind these words was clear: the Sea Clan's ancient beings were gone, and in their place stood a Profound Origin cultivator. This meant that the balance of power would soon shift.

There was no need to run; she should gather her forces and prepare for a counterattack against those hateful sea creatures.

She flew towards another battlefield.

This was exactly what Lin Xuan wanted.

He only targeted Separation Stage Sea Clan members, saving human experts afterward. The rest could be handled by themselves without much delay.

The woman did not disappoint his expectations; from afar, Lin Xuan nodded in satisfaction before moving to another battlefront.

This time, a powerful Sea Clan warrior and an aged Human cultivator were fighting each other. Both were at the Separation Middle stage, with no one else nearby of comparable strength.

With a wave of his sleeve, several sword qi flew out, turning both sea creatures and humans into cold corpses. Even their元婴s did not escape.

With Lin Xuan's current power, eliminating Separation Stage beings was like child's play; he sent them to the underworld with ease.

The old man was greatly surprised but quickly turned ecstatic as he prepared to bow in gratitude.

Just as he was about to do so, Lin Xuan coldly said, "The disease demon is dead," and vanished into a streak of lightning elsewhere.

There were tens of thousands of cultivators on both sides, but only a few dozen at the Separation Stage. With his strength, Lin Xuan could eliminate these enemies without breaking a sweat. Thus, he quickly wiped out all Sea Clan Separation Stage beings.

The situation in the battlefield began to shift subtly; humans started regrouping and counterattacking as the Sea Clan lost their unified command. The surviving cultivators noticed the change and became restless. With this development, the tide of battle was about to turn.

Lin Xuan did not linger further; he had done his part. There was no need for him here, and he needed to leave before something unexpected happened. After all, time in this place was precious as his Separation Stage form was running out.

With these thoughts, Lin Xuan transformed into a streak of lightning and returned to the spirit boat.

"Master!" The three women waited anxiously, their relief palpable upon seeing Lin Xuan unharmed. Shangguan Ling and Shangguan Yan were overjoyed.

Shangguan Muduyu was more composed but still showed clear signs of happiness on her face.

"We're leaving now."

Lin Xuan said nothing else, allowing the three women to return to the cabin first.

"Ah!"

The three nodded without asking further. As Lin Xuan stepped onto the spirit boat, he frowned as a black aura appeared in his brows...!~!
