Chapter 2680: Obstacles

en amidst a mountainous expanse shrouded in mist and clouds, the Chime Sheep Demon slammed his bronze wine flask onto the table before him.“With your temper, you wouldn't swallow a loss without gettin...At this time, Kou Jing relied on two things to protect himself: his own clan and the resources he had accumulated over many years in his cave dwelling.

Under the interference of vast demonic souls, his clan plunged into a frenzy of mutual carnage, and this range was constantly expanding. Besides these lower-ranked species, there were also three demonic bats in the Nascent Soul Realm.

For his own benefit, Kou Jing didn't care how many of his own kind died. But in this current situation, dying was meaningless. The power he had built up over so many years could be seriously weakened. After all, it takes time for a cultivator from the Mortal Transformation or Divine Void realm to reach that level.

Although the beings of the Shenxu realm possessed sufficient power to protect themselves under the haze of magic souls in Haozhou, they couldn't withstand the increasing number of their kind attacking them.

The pale moonlight was now stained crimson, the void filled with the scattered limbs of demonic bats. A cloying stench of blood hung heavy in the air.

A mid-stage Nascent Soul, two early-stage Nascent Souls. The three Nascent Soul Dark Moon Bats were unwilling to see their group suffer such heavy losses under these circumstances.

Three Dark Moon Bats had grown in size, their massive wings flapping violently, stirring up several gigantic whirlwinds between heaven and earth.

However, just as the three Sanctum Realm Darkmoon Bats unleashed their might, even the lower-ranked bats near the hurricane couldn't withstand it. They were torn to shreds by the howling winds.

This is the end of a paragraph.

As the several hurricanes approached, the flying sword formed by the lotus avatar lightly sliced through the air. Several streaks of light, like white rainbows piercing the sun, directly cleaved those hurricanes in half. After being cut apart by the white rainbow-like sword glow, the hurricanes lost their original attack direction and shot towards the lower-ranked demon bat horde further away.

Several hurricanes did not affect Haozhou's Demon Soul Smoke at all, but instead stirred up a new massacre among the dense swarms of demon bats.

Three combined-realm demon bats couldn't help but turn pale with rage. After just one exchange, the three old demon bats also realized that even if they teamed up, they were far from being opponents of the flying sword before them. To force their clan leader to flee back here was indeed extraordinary.

More Haozhou demon souls emerged from the bottle mouth, triggering a larger catastrophe among this colony of demon bats.

"Kou Jing dared to involve himself in the plot to assassinate King Lu Dan. This disaster is Kou Jing's fault. I came from the Chiyue Desert and will definitely kill Kou Jing to establish my authority. Those who wish to survive should stay far away. This level of conflict is not something you can interfere with."

Under the operation of the Lotus Flower's Dharma Power, a booming voice reverberated through the void. "The combined-realm experts from the Crimson Moon Desert are pouring in relentlessly. Regardless of whether others succeed or fail, this place will be razed to the ground."

At this time, the massive colony of demonic bats was unaware of the reason for the battle. Even the three Demonic Bat cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of such a powerful sword cultivator. It is uncommon for cultivators of the late Nascent Soul stage to clash with each other. Once a conflict erupts, it is extremely difficult to completely eliminate the opponent. This would inevitably bring endless trouble to their respective forces.

However, this law does not apply to Lu Xia Tian. To this day, several Nascent Soul Stage monsters have fallen into Lu Xia Tian's hands. Hearing that Kou Jing was involved in the plan to encircle and kill Lu Xia Tian, many demon bats were shocked. At present, although the main force led by Ji Yuan, the tortoise demon, and Xuan Zun is participating in the war against Lu Xia Tian, and even the army of demons from the chaotic Demon Domain has joined in.

Even within the chaotic Demon Domain, many factions remain on the sidelines, hesitant to make a move. After all, although Ji Yuan's side appears dominant at present, Lu Xia Tian's formidable reputation in the Chaotic Demon Domain was built upon the blood of countless enemies, without any embellishment.

As the chief, Kou Jing held absolute authority within the clan. However, provoking such a powerful enemy who could bring about their destruction at any moment was undoubtedly a risky move, and it was inevitable that some within the clan would harbor discontent. Even if they dared not voice their dissent. This was especially true for the three Nascent Soul bats. To have achieved this level of cultivation required both exceptional skill in cultivation and a certain set of principles in conduct. They possessed a considerable amount of pride as well.

Even as the clan leader, Kou Jing offered considerable protection to his tribe members, and he had also been kind to these three. They had also done many things for Kou Jing. If this had happened in the past, it wouldn't have been a big deal. But to make such a major decision without even consulting them was unacceptable. If the enemy in front of them could be dealt with by paying a price, it would be fine.

Yet, Ke Jing was overconfident and ended up provoking such a powerful foe. Even without explicitly stating her identity, the lotus avatar's presence made the few combined-body realm demon bats speculate that she was the mysterious swordsman who had severely wounded Mo Yan Yuanzhu in the Crimson Moon Desert.

Even if Lü Xiaotien is in trouble now, the strength of Chi Yue Desert is far beyond what their demon bat clan can compare to.

“All clansmen, heed my command and disperse yourselves. Kou Lian, you three, swiftly enter my cave abode with me. Together, we may stand a chance against this swordsman.” Kou Jing, though gritting his teeth in anger at the lotus avatar’s words, knew that with the haze of the Great Zhou Demon Soul swirling around the clan had lost its purpose.

A considerable number of them were also intimidated by the prestige of Kou Jingping during his pacification, fearing that if they ran away, they would be held accountable later. Hearing Kou Jing's words at this time, they felt no pressure anymore. Some who were still clever enough spared no effort to escape, fleeing as fast as possible from the immediate danger.

As for those who have already been affected by the ravages of Ha Zhou's demonic soul smoke and were caught in its wake, they can only blame their bad luck.

This is a response to your request.

The three merged demon bats were also relieved to hear this. Under the circumstances, avoiding a fight with the mysterious swordsman in front of them was naturally the best outcome.

Three combined demon bats shot back electricity.

The lotus avatar watched as several fused demon bats fled before its eyes, the sword light flickering erratically. The lotus avatar's soul was far weaker than its main body, and its understanding of formations was also inferior. Without a boundary worm at its disposal, some formations and restrictions naturally posed greater challenges for the lotus avatar.

However, due to my status, the Lotus avatar's understanding of the restriction formation, even if not as profound as mine, surpasses that of ordinary people.

The three combined demon bats entered Kou Jing's mansion, which had been in operation for thousands of years. Several restrictions inside were opened, and the lotus avatar took advantage of this opportunity to pass through two restrictions in succession. The speed at which they went deep into the mansion far exceeded Kou Jing's expectations.

However, Kou Jing relied on the restrictions of the cave dwelling and some powerful methods honed over thousands of years. For the lotus avatar, it was extremely troublesome.

“If the real me were here, these external means wouldn't be worth mentioning at all.” At this time, the lotus avatar was also quite annoyed. Even if Kou Jing added those three merged clansmen, his strength was still not that strong in his eyes.ody and spirit.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!Although Ming’e has made great progress these years and is now a titled Zen master, if he were to face Lu Xiaotian, the...
