Chapter 4055: Escape
r. Hu Ruining felt a little calmer in his heart. 。"That's all" Hu Ruining stood with his hands behind his back, a hint of sarcasm flashing across his lips. A mere Dan Yuan artifact Far from it, Su Qi...“Impossible, not to mention the Fire Prison Devil's cultivation. How could that Eastern Divine Saint in this Heaven River Fire Domain have wounded him” The other person, despite also rushing with all his might, seemed somewhat unconvinced, or rather, unwilling to accept it. They were very clear about the strength of the Fire Prison Devil. Even though Lu Xiaotian had inflicted considerable losses on the Heavenly Punishment Palace's forces, they didn't think Lu Xiaotian had the strength to injure the Fire Prison Devil. Even if Lu Xiaotian was stronger, within this Heaven River Fire Domain, it would be extremely difficult to achieve.”
"If it hadn't already caused such massive damage to the Heavenly Prison Palace, who would believe that someone who was once just a Xuan Immortal and a third-rank Dan Saint could achieve such astonishing heights in just a few thousand years" The other person retorted. "We need to speed up, otherwise if the Fire Hell Envoy were to meet with any unforeseen circumstances, both of us would be hard-pressed to escape blame."
Although these two helpers arrived very quickly, without any delay, and did pose a certain threat to Lu Xiaoteng, they were still insufficient to reverse the outcome of the duel between Lu Xiaoteng and the woman in red.
Once the countless lightning arrows forced the red-clothed woman's true form to appear, Lu Xia Tian extended his palm, and the Demon Suppressing Tower fell from the void. The red-clothed woman could sense the immense weight of the Demon Suppressing Tower as it descended. A surge of alarm coursed through her, making her unwilling to meet its force head-on, especially since the Ten Directions Inferno was no longer able to restrain the puppet warriors. If she chose to resist here, the puppet warriors would take advantage of the situation and attack. The outcome facing her would undoubtedly be far from favorable.
The woman in red swayed with incredible speed, creating a series of fire-like phantoms that blurred the vision. She wielded her mastery over the "Law of Fire" to its fullest, yet under Lu Xiaotian's keen eyes, none of it could escape detection. A sliver of silver light descended, and seven reliquaries flew out from it, weaving through the air like a whirlwind. Instantly, the fire-like phantoms vanished. At this moment, the Demon Taming Pagoda transformed directly into seven towering Buddhist images, gathering together as one, and with a single palm strike, they pressed down on the woman in red.

At this time, Lu Xiaotian's cultivation was indeed inferior to that of the woman in red. However, under the circumstance that his eyes could break through the fluctuations of the power of the method rules, he had already greatly narrowed the gap between them. Besides, at this moment, a considerable part of the woman in red's energy was restrained by the puppet warriors. It was not so easy for her to gain an advantage in the fight with Lu Xiaotian.
Whoa! Though the woman in red moved quickly, she couldn't escape the Stupa Dharma Form. With nowhere to run, the woman in red, like the Tathagata Heavenly King, lifted her fair palm upwards. The descending Stupa Dharma Form paused.
“Such pure immortal essence, the other party has already integrated the power of laws into it.” Lu Xia Tian was also surprised, and he wanted to use the immortal light from the Tower of Conquering Demons to envelop the woman in red. Unexpectedly, the woman in red instinctively felt something was wrong, her figure flashed, transforming into a fireball, swiftly dodging away.
It was indeed a fast speed. Even as an opponent, Lu Xiaoteng couldn't help but secretly admire the red-skirted woman's astonishingly quick reaction.
Boom boom boom... The Ten Directions Inferno had now completely shattered. The eighteen puppet soldiers split in several directions, each wielding their long swords and slashing out. They sealed off the red-skirted woman's escape route from all sides.
The woman in the red dress's face changed dramatically, a huge sense of crisis enveloped her. Even just Lu Xia tian himself was already quite difficult to deal with. Perhaps Lu Xia tian's cultivation was slightly better than hers, but his combat talent was surprisingly strong in her eyes. Every time, he could always attack her weaknesses. This is not something that ordinary people can do.
Being restrained by Lu Xia tian's instinct alone was already quite troublesome, let alone these eighteen puppet soldiers joining forces, their combat power had surpassed hers. However, although Lu Xia tian was slightly weaker in cultivation, his movements were flawless when he made a move. After gaining the upper hand, he didn't give her any chance to counterattack, and even the room for resistance was becoming less and less.
The woman in the red dress was backed into a corner, with nowhere to escape. A plum blossom shaped mark between her brows shimmered and glowed, as a fiery crimson plum blossom floated into the air. This plum blossom ignited, transforming into a blazing fire shield that enveloped the woman in red.
And in the red-clad woman's eyes, there was a flash of pain, clearly showing that the price she paid for summoning this Fiery Red Plum was not small.
Lu Xia Tian's expression was one of surprise. From the moment the opponent brandished the Fiery Red Plum, a terrifying heat began to blaze, scorching through the very space they were in. In an instant, it crossed over into another realm. Though appearing close at hand, it was actually worlds apart. The eighteen puppet warriors swung their blades, striking at empty air.
Lu Xia Tian frowned. He could still use his spatial power to attack the woman in red, but the flaming plum blossom formed a defensive barrier that not only temporarily burned through space here, but also possessed astonishing defense. Lu Xia Tian's own spatial power allowed him to attack, but his strength was insufficient to break through its defenses. As for the eighteen puppet soldiers, they had the ability to do so, but they lacked the spatial divine powers to wield it.
Seeing that this woman in red had escaped a near-death experience, Lu Xia Tian also admired her. A celestial being who had cultivated to this realm was indeed not so easy to kill.
Although he couldn't kill or severely injure the woman in red, Lu Xia Tian didn't want to let her get away unscathed. The woman's fire-element law mastery was already at a considerable level. Even without taking action, she posed a huge threat in this Heavenly River Fire Domain. The fact that she could intercept him proved just that. This time, the woman in red had suffered a loss and would be more cautious in the future, avoiding direct confrontation with him. Lu Xia Tian found himself in a difficult situation because of this. After all, completely escaping the Heavenly River Fire Domain took a certain amount of time. Once the woman in red escaped, during that time, she could easily summon reinforcements to catch up or simply keep them at bay. This alone was enough to make Lu Xia Tian's life miserable.
Of course, Lu Xia Tian wouldn't give the other party this chance. The eighteen puppet warriors only paused for a moment before suddenly condensing an astonishing blade aura. It slashed in from the opening where the fiery red plum had burned through space, splitting onto the defensive shield formed by the fiery red plum. *buzz*, the shield's flames surged, being chopped back continuously by the blade aura.

Lu Xia Tian reached out and pressed forward, using his spatial power to repair the small opening in front of him. Of course, with Lu Xia Tian's current ability, it was only a temporary repair. It wouldn't be able to hold back the woman in red, but the opponent had just been hit and thrown into the spatial turbulence. This level of spatial fluctuation wasn't enough to kill her, but it could also cause her quite a bit of trouble. To escape from it wouldn't be something she could do in a short time. For now, there was no need to worry about the threat the woman in red posed.
Having done all that, Lu XiaTian raised his hand and put away the eighteen puppet warriors, then quickly disappeared into the flames in the distance.e to translate!Ku Long's strength was definitely not inferior to his, but he was still easily dealt with by Lei Zhilong Jun. If the other party truly had intentions, he wouldn't be able to resist at a...
