rán ér rén bù kě mào xiàng ， hǎi shuǐ bù kě dǒu liáng ， měi lì de shì wù ， què yì wèi zhe yǒu dú ， yǎn qián de dié mó ， kě shì yǐ xīn hěn shǒu là zhù chēng de 。
然而人不可貌相，海水不可斗量，美丽的事物，却意味着有毒，眼前的蝶魔，可是以心狠手辣著称的。
However, one cannot judge a book by its cover or measure the sea with a dipper; beautiful things often come with danger. The current butterfly demon before them was known for its ruthless nature.
zhì yú yòu biān de gǔ mó ， zé zhǎng dé yǒu xiē qí guài le 。
至于右边的古魔，则长得有些奇怪了。
As for the ancient demon on the right, it looked rather peculiar.
píng xīn lái shuō ， cǐ mó yǔ rén lèi shì hěn xiàng de ， kě jiù shì tài pàng le ， shēn gāo bā chǐ ， yāo wéi yě shì bā chǐ ， kàn shàng qù ， jiù yǔ yí gè yuán qiú xiāng sì 。
平心来说，此魔与人类是很像的，可就是太胖了，身高八尺，腰围也是八尺，看上去，就与一个圆球相似。
To be honest, this demon resembled humans in appearance but was excessively overweight, standing eight feet tall and having an equally wide waist, making it look like a large sphere.
liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng gèng shì xiào róng kě jū ， rán ér yǎn móu zhī zhōng ， què yǒu jīng máng shǎn guò ， tā zuì xǐ huān zuò de shì qíng ， jiù shì xiào lǐ cáng dāo le 。
脸上的表情更是笑容可掬，然而眼眸之中，却有精芒闪过，他最喜欢做的事情，就是笑里藏刀了。
Its face was always smiling, but there was a glint of sharpness in its eyes. It loved to stab people in the back with a smile.
zhè jiā huo yǔ dié mó de xiū wèi nǎi shì yī yàng de ， lí hé chū qī ， tóng yàng shì bù kě qīng rǔ dì 。
这家伙与蝶魔的修为乃是一样的，离合初期，同样是不可轻辱地。
This demon's cultivation level was the same as that of the butterfly demon—initial separation stage—and could not be underestimated either.
zài jiā shàng mó yún zhōng dà tǒng lǐng ， sān mó dōu mì qiè guān zhù zhe zhàn jú 。
再加上魔云中大统领，三魔都密切关注着战局。
Moreover, the Great Commander of the Demon Cloud and the three other demons were closely monitoring the battle.
“ jiā gē ， bài xuān gé yǐ qīng cháo ér chū ， lián nà jǐ gè yā tou ， yě jiā rù zhàn dòu ， kàn qǐ lái ， tā men yīng gāi méi yǒu shén me hòu shǒu 。” dié mó de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， tiān shēng dài zhe jǐ fēn jiāo mèi zhī sè 。
“夹哥，拜轩阁已倾巢而出，连那几个丫头，也加入战斗，看起来，他们应该没有什么后手。”蝶魔的声音传入耳朵，天生带着几分娇媚之色。
"Jia Brother, Bai Xuan Pavilion has already sent out all its forces. Even those few girls have joined the fight. It seems they have no hidden reserves," the butterfly demon's voice entered their ears, naturally carrying a hint of seductiveness.
“ bù cuò ， xiǎo dì yě shì zhè me kàn de 。” nà shēn cái féi pàng de yuán mó yě kāi kǒu le 。
“不错，小弟也是这么看的。”那身材肥胖的圆魔也开口了。
"Not wrong at all, little brother also sees it this way," said the round and fat ancient demon with a large body.
tóu sì bì de gǔ mó diǎn le diǎn tóu ：“ chuán wǒ jiàng lìng ， chū dòng suǒ yǒu de rén shǒu ， wǒ men yě yì qǐ jìn gōng ， wù xū bì qí gōng yú yī yì ， jiāng bài xuān gé ná xià le 。”
头四臂的古魔点了点头：“传我将令，出动所有的人手，我们也一起进攻，务须毕其功于一役，将拜轩阁拿下了。”
The four-armed ancient demon nodded: "Issue my order and mobilize everyone. We should launch an attack together to ensure we achieve our goal in one fell swoop and take down Bai Xuan Pavilion."
“ bù cuò ， yí dìng yào qiǎng zài nà jǐ gè jiā huo de qián miàn ， zài bīng pò mó zǔ fēn hún jiàng lín cǐ jiè yǐ qián ， xiān ná xià bài xuān gé ， zhè yàng de huà ， shǒu gōng jiù shì wǒ men de 。” dié mó diǎn tóu zàn chéng de shuō 。
“不错，一定要抢在那几个家伙的前面，在冰魄魔祖分魂降临此界以前，先拿下拜轩阁，这样的话，首功就是我们的。”蝶魔点头赞成的说。
"Right, we must seize the initiative before those guys do. We need to capture Bai Xuan Pavilion before the Ice Spirit Ancestor's fragment soul arrives," the butterfly demon nodded in agreement.
“ bù guò tiě chì mó ， huà xuè mó liǎng gè jiā huo ， tǒng lǐng dà jūn ， fēn bié gōng dǎ sōng fēng shū yuàn hé bài xuān gé ， kěn dìng yě huì bù yí yú lì de ， wǒ men shì fǒu zhēn néng qiǎng xiān yī bù ná xià lái ne ？” yuán mó yǒu diǎn yōu lǜ de shuō 。
“不过铁翅魔，化血魔两个家伙，统领大军，分别攻打松风书院和拜轩阁，肯定也会不遗余力的，我们是否真能抢先一步拿下来呢？”圆魔有点忧虑的说。
"But Iron Wing Demon and Blood Sucker Demon are leading their armies to attack Songfeng Academy and Bai Xuan Pavilion respectively. Can we really outmaneuver them?" the round ancient demon said with some worry.
“ zhè wǒ yě bù xiǎo de ， zhǐ néng shì jìn rén shì ér tīng tiān mìng le ， hǎo zài yǔ bài xuān gé suī wēi míng yuǎn bō ， dàn yǔ sōng fēng shū yuàn hái yǒu tiān yá hǎi gé xiāng bǐ ， bì jìng shì xīn xīng shì lì ， dǐ yùn méi yǒu bàn fǎ yǔ chuán chéng zì shàng gǔ de mén pài xiāng bǐ ， suǒ yǐ wǒ men gèng yǒu jī huì yī xiē 。” shuāng tóu sì bì de gǔ mó wèng shēng wèng qì de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
“这我也不晓得，只能是尽人事儿听天命了，好在与拜轩阁虽威名远播，但与松风书院还有天涯海阁相比，毕竟是新兴势力，底蕴没有办法与传承自上古的门派相比，所以我们更有机会一些。”双头四臂的古魔瓮声瓮气的声音传入耳朵。
"Who knows? We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate. Although Bai Xuan Pavilion is a formidable force, compared to Songfeng Academy and Tianya Hai Pavilion, it's a new power with less heritage. Thus, we have more chances," the four-armed ancient demon's deep voice echoed.
“ bù guò dà gē ， cǐ shì hái zhēn yǒu xiē qí guài tiān yún shí èr zhōu ， zhǐ shì xià wèi jiè miàn de yī bù fèn ér yǐ ， bīng pò dà rén ， kě shì wǒ shèng zú jiǔ wèi zhēn mó shǐ zǔ zhī yī ， ér qiě hái shì kě yǐ pái míng qián sān de cún zài xiū wèi tōng tiān chè dì ， tā lǎo rén jiān ， zěn me huì duì zhè yàng de xià wèi jiè miàn yǒu xīng qǐ 。” dié mó shēn chū zhǐ tou ， zhī chēng zhe liǎn kǒng ， liǎn shàng mǎn shì hào qí zhī yì ：“ yào zhī dào yóu yú tiān dì fǎ zé ， dà rén tā jiù suàn shì zhǐ pài yī lǚ fēn hún xià jiè ， yě tóng yàng huì bī dào hěn duō chè zhǒu de 。”
“不过大哥，此事还真有些奇怪天云十二州，只是下位界面的一部分而已，冰魄大人，可是我圣族九位真魔始祖之一，而且还是可以排名前三的存在修为通天彻地，她老人间，怎么会对这样的下位界面有兴起。”蝶魔伸出指头，支撑着脸孔，脸上满是好奇之意：“要知道由于天地法则，大人她就算是只派一缕分魂下界，也同样会逼到很多掣肘的。”
"But Brother, this does seem strange. The Heavenly Cloud Twelve Provinces are just part of the lower plane, and Ice Spirit Lord is one of our True Demons' nine Ancestors, ranking among the top three in power. How can she show interest in such a lowly plane?" the butterfly demon extended his fingers to support his face, showing genuine curiosity.
“ nǐ wèn wǒ ： wǒ yòu nǎ lǐ xiǎo de 。” shuāng tóu sì bì de gǔ mó bù yóu de kǔ xiào qǐ lái le ：“ sān mèi chēng de wèn tí ， nǎ yǒu nà me duō ， wǒ men zhǐ yào xiǎo de ， shuí shuài lǐng de dà jūn ， néng gòu xiān jiāng gōng fá de mén pài mǒ chú ， zài bīng pò dà rén miàn qián ， jiù néng lì xià mò dà de gōng xūn ， zhè jiù zú gòu le 。
“你问我：我又哪里晓得。”双头四臂的古魔不由得苦笑起来了：“三妹称的问题，哪有那么多，我们只要晓得，谁率领的大军，能够先将攻伐的门派抹除，在冰魄大人面前，就能立下莫大的功勋，这就足够了。
"I don't know either," the four-armed ancient demon could only sigh: "Sister's question is simple enough; we just need to ensure that our army can eliminate the targeted sect first. That will earn us great merit in front of Ice Spirit Lord."
“ dà rén ruò shì xīn zhōng huān xǐ suí biàn tí xié wǒ men yī xià ， jiù zú gòu wǒ men zhōng shēng ， shòu yòng bù jìn le 。”
“大人若是心中欢喜随便提携我们一下，就足够我们终生，受用不尽了。”
"Even a casual favor from her would be enough for us to enjoy forever."
“ dà gē suǒ yán bù cuò 。” dié mó yǔ yuán mó yì qǐ diǎn tóu ， liǎn shàng dōu lù chū kuáng rè ：“ nà hái děng shén me ， nín kuài xià lìng hǎo le 。”
“大哥所言不错。”蝶魔与圆魔一起点头，脸上都露出狂热：“那还等什么，您快下令好了。”
"Brother's words are correct," both the butterfly and round ancient demons nodded, their faces filled with fervor: "Then what are we waiting for? Order now!"
“ lìng wèi xiōng gāng cái yǐ jīng xià guò ， chū dòng suǒ yǒu de rén shǒu ， bù xī yí qiè dài jià yě yào ná xià bài xuān gé xiàn zài gāi lún dào wǒ men chū jī le 。”
“令为兄刚才已经下过，出动所有的人手，不惜一切代价也要拿下拜轩阁现在该轮到我们出击了。”
"The order was given just now. We must mobilize all our forces at any cost to take down Bai Xuan Pavilion. Now it's time for us to act."
shuāng tóu sì bì de gǔ mó huà yīn wèi luò ， hún shēn yǐ bèi gǔn gǔn de mó qì bāo guǒ ， yī shēng dà hē ， shēn xiān shì zú ， chōng shàng qù le 。
双头四臂的古魔话音未落，浑身已被滚滚的魔气包裹，一声大喝，身先士卒，冲上去了。
Before the four-armed ancient demon could finish speaking, a thick cloud of demonic energy enveloped his body. With a loud roar, he charged forward as the vanguard.
dié mó yuán mó jǐn suí qí hòu qí tā yuán yīng qī de gǔ mó jiàn sān wèi shǒu lǐng yì qǐ dòng shǒu ， nǎ hái gǎn dài màn shén me ， yě fēn fēn huà wèi yī gǔ gǔ zhē tiān bì rì de mó fēng jǐn suí qí hòu 。
蝶魔圆魔紧随其后其他元婴期的古魔见三位首领一起动手，哪还敢怠慢什么，也纷纷化为一股股遮天蔽日的魔风紧随其后。
The butterfly and round ancient demons followed closely behind. Seeing their three leaders acting together, the other ancient demons of the initial separation stage dared not hesitate and transformed into massive clouds of demonic wind that swiftly followed them.
“ wa hā hā hā ……”
“哇哈哈哈……”
"Ha ha ha!"
nà shuāng tóu sì bì de gǔ mó lái dào líng lóng gǔ shàng kōng ， xiān yáng qǐ tóu liǎng kē tóu lú tóng shí fā chū lìng rén xīn yáo shén bāo de nù hǒu 。
那双头四臂的古魔来到玲珑谷上空，先扬起头两颗头颅同时发出令人心摇神胞的怒吼。
The four-armed ancient demon arrived above Linglong Valley, raising his heads to emit ear-splitting roars.
gāo jiē xiū xiān zhě dào hái bà le ， nà xiē shí lì dī yì diǎn de xiū xiān zhě ， zhí jiē bèi zhèn dé ěr mó fā téng ， xiōng kǒu qì xuè fān yǒng ， gèng zāo gāo de shì ， fǎ lì jū rán tí bù qǐ ， jǐn guǎn nà zhuàng tài jǐn chí xù le xū yú ， dàn jiù zhè piàn kè de gōng fu ， jiù bù zhī dào yǔn luò le duō shǎo xiū xiān zhě 。
高阶修仙者倒还罢了，那些实力低一点的修仙者，直接被震得耳膜发疼，胸口气血翻涌，更糟糕的是，法力居然提不起，尽管那状态仅持续了须臾，但就这片刻的功夫，就不知道陨落了多少修仙者。
While high-ranking cultivators remained unaffected, those with lower cultivation levels were directly stunned by the sound. Their eardrums ached, their breaths turned tumultuous, and worse still, they couldn't even summon their power. Although this state only lasted for a moment, many cultivators fell during that brief period.
bù kuì shì lí hé hòu qī de gǔ mó ， yī jiàn miàn ， jiù gěi le zhòng xiū shì yí gè xià mǎ wēi lái zhe 。
不愧是离合后期的古魔，一见面，就给了众修士一个下马威来着。
No wonder it was an ancient demon of late separation stage; it immediately gave all the cultivators a taste of its power.
ér cǐ mó dāng rán bù zǒu chū lái hǒu yī shēng jiù suàn le ， zhǐ jiàn tā sì tiáo shǒu bì lián lián wǔ ， rú tóng chē lún yì bān zhuǎn dòng ， ér suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， shù yǐ bǎi jì de hēi sè guāng qiú chū xiàn le 。 měi yí gè zhí jìng dōu zài bàn chǐ zuǒ yòu ， lǐ miàn de mó qì ， yōu shēn yǐ jí 。
而此魔当然不走出来吼一声就算了，只见他四条手臂连连舞，如同车轮一般转动，而随着他的动作，数以百计的黑色光球出现了。每一个直径都在半尺左右，里面的魔气，幽深以极。
And this demon didn't stop at just roaring; he began to dance with his four arms, spinning like wheels. As he moved, hundreds of black energy balls appeared, each about half a foot in diameter, filled with deep demonic energy.
cǐ gǔ mó yī shēng dà hē ， nà xiē guāng qiú yī shǎn ， zài tā shēn qián jù jí qǐ lái ， yì zhí jìng qī bā zhàng de jù dà guāng qiú chū xiàn 。
此古魔一声大喝，那些光球一闪，在他身前聚集起来，一直径七八丈的巨大光球出现。
With a loud roar, the energy balls gathered before him, forming an enormous ball seven or eight zhang (about 20 feet) in diameter.
rán hòu cǐ mó sì bì gāo gāo jǔ qǐ ， suí hòu cháo zhe xià fāng hěn hěn huī luò píng qù ， suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， nà hēi sè de guāng qiú rú mò shí zhuì dì ， miáo zhǔn le líng lóng gǔ ， dài zhe cháng cháng de wěi yàn zá luò 。
然后此魔四臂高高举起，随后朝着下方狠狠挥落平去，随着他的动作，那黑色的光球如陌石坠地，瞄准了玲珑谷，带着长长的尾焰砸落。
Then, raising his four arms high, he swung them down forcefully. The black energy balls descended like stones, aiming at Linglong Valley and smashing into it with long trails of flame.
“ bù hǎo ， kuài duǒ 。”
“不好，快躲。”
"Bad luck, quickly dodge."
“ gāi sǐ ， gǎn kuài lí kāi cǐ chù 。”
“该死，赶快离开此处。”
"F*ck, leave this place immediately."
dùn shí ， jīng hū shēng cǐ qǐ bǐ fú ， fù jìn de xiū shì dà jīng shī sè ， tā men bù guò yuán yīng ér yǐ ， yǒu nǎ ge ， gǎn dǎng lí hé hòu qī lǎo guài wù de yī jī 。
顿时，惊呼声此起彼伏，附近的修士大惊失色，他们不过元婴而已，有哪个，敢挡离合后期老怪物的一击。
Suddenly, cries of alarm echoed everywhere as nearby cultivators were shocked. They were mere initial separation stage cultivators; who dared to face the wrath of an ancient demon in late separation stage?
nà yǔ yǒng gǎn bù yǒng gǎn méi yǒu guān xì ， chún cuì shì lǎo shòu xīng shàng diào zhǎo sǐ de wèn tí 。
那与勇敢不勇敢没有关系，纯粹是老寿星上吊找死的问题。
This had nothing to do with bravery or cowardice; it was simply suicide.
nà guāng qiú sī háo yě méi yǒu bī jiàn zǔ gé ， zhí jiē zhuàng shàng le líng lóng gǔ wài de shǒu hù guāng mù 。
那光球丝毫也没有逼见阻隔，直接撞上了玲珑谷外的守护光幕。
The energy ball struck the protective light curtain surrounding Linglong Valley without any resistance.
hēi máng líng guāng ， shùn jiān jiāo zhī zài yì qǐ ， bàn suí zhe pī lǐ pā lā de bào xiǎng shēng bù tíng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， liǎng zhě jiāo jiè zhī chù ， zhǐ jiàn yǒu wú shù diàn shé pī lǐ pā lā de yóu zǒu zhe ， guò le piàn kè ， hēi sè de guāng qiú huà wèi le xū wú ， dàn nà yàng hóng sè de guāng mù ， yě tóng yàng àn dàn le xǔ duō 。
黑芒灵光，瞬间交织在一起，伴随着噼里啪啦的爆响声不停传入耳朵，两者交界之处，只见有无数电蛇噼里啪啦的游走着，过了片刻，黑色的光球化为了虚无，但那样红色的光幕，也同样黯淡了许多。
Black and luminous energies intertwined, producing a continuous crackling sound. At the point where they met, countless electric snakes danced around. After a moment, the black energy ball vanished into nothingness, but the red light curtain also dimmed significantly.
bù kuì shì lí hé hòu qī de lǎo guài wù ， jǐn jǐn yī jī ， zào chéng de shāng hài jiù kān yǔ mó zú dà jūn jìn gōng piàn kè de chéng gōng kě bǐ 。
不愧是离合后期的老怪物，仅仅一击，造成的伤害就堪与魔族大军进攻片刻的成功可比。
No wonder it was an ancient demon of late separation stage; a single strike caused damage comparable to that of a full-scale demonic army's assault.
jǐn jiē zhe ， yòu yǒu jiāo xiào de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， zhǐ jiàn nà dié mó yù shǒu yī fú ， wú shù hēi sè de fēng rèn zài tā shēn tǐ zhōu cè fú xiàn ér chū ， shà shí jiān ， pò kōng zhī shēng dà zuò ， yě cháo zhe qián fāng 〖 jī 〗 shè guò qù le 。
紧接着，又有娇笑的声音传入耳朵，只见那蝶魔玉手一拂，无数黑色的风刃在她身体周侧浮现而出，霎时间，破空之声大做，也朝着前方〖激〗射过去了。
Following this, a sweet laughter sounded as the butterfly demon waved her hands. Countless black wind blades appeared around her body and shot forward with a loud piercing sound.
xuè huā mǎn tiān ， jǐn jǐn yī zhǎ yǎn ， jiù yǒu shù shí míng xiū shì mò luò ， shèng xià de fēng rèn yě bìng wèi luò kōng ， jǐn gēn zhe shuāng tóu sì bì gǔ mó de gōng jī ， dǎ shàng guāng mù 。
血huā满天，仅仅一眨眼，就有数十名修士陌落，剩下的风刃也并未落空，紧跟着双头四臂古魔的攻击，打上光幕。
Blood flowers filled the sky as dozens of cultivators fell in an instant. The remaining wind blades struck the light curtain after the four-armed ancient demon's attack.
rú tóng yǔ dǎ jiāo hé ， yòu rú tóng zài píng jìng de hú miàn tóu xià yī méi méi shí zǐ ， cóng ér dàng qǐ yī quān quān de lián a ……，…
如同雨打蕉荷，又如同在平静的湖面投下一枚枚石子，从而荡起一圈圈的涟啊……，…
It was like raindrops hitting banana leaves, or throwing stones into a calm lake, creating ripples…
guāng máng yuè fā de àn dàn le xià qù 。
光芒越发的黯淡了下去。
The light became dimmer and dimmer.
yuán mó yě méi yǒu xián zhe ， zhǐ jiàn tā rú tóng yí gè tuó luó ， dī liū liū de zài bàn kōng zhōng yì zé zhe ， hěn kuài ， yī dào mó fēng píng kōng ér qǐ ， bāo guǒ zhù tā páng dà de shēn qū 。
圆魔也没有闲着，只见他如同一个陀螺，滴溜溜的在半空中逸择着，很快，一道魔风凭空而起，包裹住他庞大的身躯。
Meanwhile, the round ancient demon didn't idle either. He spun in mid-air like a top, quickly forming a cloud of demonic wind that enveloped his large body.
rán hòu nà mó fēng xùn sù yā xiàng líng lóng gǔ ， suǒ guò zhī chù ， xiū xiān zhě pèng zhe jiù sǐ ， zhuàng zhe jiù wáng ， méi yǒu yí gè rén gǎn shàng qián zǔ dǎng 。
然后那魔风迅速压向玲珑谷，所过之处，修仙者碰着就死，撞着就亡，没有一个人敢上前阻挡。
Then this demonic wind pressed down on Linglong Valley. Wherever it passed, cultivators died upon contact; none dared to stop them.
kuǐ lěi yě shì yī yàng ， jǐn guǎn zuò wéi méi yǒu shēng mìng de qì wù ， xī men hàn bù wèi sǐ ， dàn shí lì xiāng chà tài dà ， lián dāng pào huī dōu bù gòu gé ， gēn běn jiù dǐ dǎng bú zhù lí hé qī de gǔ mó ， zhǐ yǒu jīng wēi pào yǒu xiē yòng chǔ ， dāng rán ， yī mén yě méi yǒu xiào guǒ ， bì xū jí zhōng shù bǎi mén yì qǐ shǐ yòng 。 shù bǎi mén jīng wēi pào yì qǐ qí shè ， què shí néng gòu lìng lí hé qī de gǔ mó yě bù gǎn zhí yīng qí fēng 。！~！
傀儡也是一样，尽管作为没有生命的器物，牺们悍不畏死，但实力相差太大，连当炮灰都不够格，根本就抵挡不住离合期的古魔，只有晶威炮有些用处，当然，一门也没有效果，必须集中数百门一起使用。数百门晶威炮一起齐射，确实能够令离合期的古魔也不敢直缨其锋。！~！
Puppets were no different. Although they lacked life and were fearless, the disparity in power was too great for them to even serve as cannon fodder. They couldn't withstand an ancient demon of separation stage; only crystal energy cannons might be somewhat effective, but they needed hundreds firing together to have any impact!
However, one cannot judge a book by its cover or measure the sea with a dipper; beautiful things often come with danger. The current butterfly demon before them was known for its ruthless nature.
As for the ancient demon on the right, it looked rather peculiar.
To be honest, this demon resembled humans in appearance but was excessively overweight, standing eight feet tall and having an equally wide waist, making it look like a large sphere.

"Even a casual favor from her would be enough for us to enjoy forever."

"The order was given just now. We must mobilize all our forces at any cost to take down Bai Xuan Pavilion. Now it's time for us to act."

And this demon didn't stop at just roaring; he began to dance with his four arms, spinning like wheels. As he moved, hundreds of black energy balls appeared, each about half a foot in diameter, filled with deep demonic energy.
"Combine!"
With a loud roar, the energy balls gathered before him, forming an enormous ball seven or eight zhang (about 20 feet) in diameter.
Then, raising his four arms high, he swung them down forcefully. The black energy balls descended like stones, aiming at Linglong Valley and smashing into it with long trails of flame.
"Bad luck, quickly dodge."
"F*ck, leave this place immediately."
Suddenly, cries of alarm echoed everywhere as nearby cultivators were shocked. They were mere initial separation stage cultivators; who dared to face the wrath of an ancient demon in late separation stage?
