A huge blue sword shadow slashed across the sky.
Aragaki Nigaki Condensed divine power with a single hand raised high. The palm and the sword clashed violently, and after a deafening roar, several spiritual ripples spread out in all directions.
"The spiritual level of this Wolf demon has already broken through to level fourteen... and it's still rising!" Lu Xingqian exclaimed, "Even Shenzhou's strongest immortal, Master Xu, only has a spiritual level of eighteen when fully unleashed..."
"Sister, what level can you reach with your full spiritual power?" Xin Si glanced at Lu Xingqian.
"For me? After becoming an immortal, I can reach up to level seventeen."
"What about in normal times?"
"About ten levels or so..."
"Hmph! Senior Sister, when it comes down to it, you're the more powerful one. This Wolf demon isn't even using its own spiritual power! Besides, he's not a deity or demon, so he can't unleash their power. If Si Ji Sect Leader were to use Xuan Kun's abilities... hehehe..."
"Why are you so talkative? Shut up!" Lu Xingqian scolded.
Watching Aragaki Nigaki and Si Ji compete in spiritual power, Ningxiu couldn't help but frown and quietly asked, " Xiao Yao, Aragaki's spiritual shock has reached level fifteen. Don't let him accidentally kill someone... otherwise, our plan will be ruined."
"Master, don't worry. The Shu Mountain Immortal Arts I gave him has been modified. Once the spells are cast, his celestial arts will be nullified, and his power will become extremely unstable."
As they spoke, Aragaki Nigaki felt the divine power within him rapidly flowing towards the massive sword shadow on his arm. As the divine power decreased, the dark magic began to stir.
"Evil creature! Prepare to die!!"
Si Ji shouted loudly, and the Xuan Kun Sword shone even brighter.
Aragaki Nigaki noticed that the divine power was draining faster and faster, and the magic in the Spirit Tower became restless, causing multiple images to appear before their eyes.
"Is this the power of capturing spirits? Heh... It may be unsolvable for ordinary demons, but I'm a modern person! Can I let you have your way?" With that, Aragaki Nigaki slowly raised his left hand.
"No!!! Sect Leader, run away!!!" Lu Xingqian and Qin Siye both exclaimed in shock, launching a pincer attack from the front and back.
The opportunity to raise one's hand is like blinking, not to mention immortals, even gods and demons would be of no use!
Aragaki Nigaki placed his left hand on top of his right hand, and suddenly the spiritual powers of gods and demons collided.
With a deafening roar, a brilliant light engulfed everything. A tremendous spiritual shock surged in all directions like a force of nature, centered around Aragaki Nigaki.
Xuan Kun Sword A powerful spiritual shock sent soaring into the sky, then plunging straight into the ground. After about a quarter of an hour, the light gradually dissipated, and the spiritual shock subsided. Lu Xingqian and Qin Siye were unable to stop it, but the two of them cleverly used their spiritual power to protect the people behind them. Ke Lingfei also emerged from the bushes, staring in horror at the explosion site.
Aragaki Nigaki disappeared without a trace, and in its place stood a tall Wolf demon with pure white fur, crimson eyes, and feet firmly planted on the ground.
Si Ji lay motionless a zhang away, blood flowing from seven orifices, looking as fragile as a thread of silk.
Everyone was stunned, too frightened to speak.
"Chief Disciple!!!"
A man with a cold and determined face leaped out from the crowd. He was thin and of a similar age to Xu Changqing. He rushed to Si Ji and angrily shouted, "What are you waiting for? Kill him!!" as he pressed his left palm against the acupoints on the back of Shi Guan and Shang Qu.
The crowd reacted upon hearing the shout. Lu Xingqian, Xu Changqing, and Shanghuan all rushed towards Aragaki Nigaki.
" Si Li senior!!" Qin Siye showed a frightened expression. "Chief Disciple he... he..."
" Siye, what are you waiting for? Avenge the sect leader!" Si Li shouted.
Qin Siye cursed and turned to join the battle.
"Master, we messed up!" Xiao Yao exclaimed.
"Go and check on Si Ji Sect Leader, whatever you do, don't let him die," Elder Ningxiu stroked his beard, "If you can't stop it, release Fang Qingping and let Niu Xiaohua out. In any case, make him calm down! The plan remains unchanged!"
With that, he rode off on his sword. Aragaki Nigaki fought alone in the form of a demonized Wolf demon against four immortals.
Sword light and spiritual energy danced in the sky, surging in all directions—Lu Xingqian manipulated several golden sword shadows to strike, intercept, slash, and cut, each move targeting the vital points; Qin Siye fought with his sword, agile and precise with every strike; Xu Changqing chanted a spell in mid-air, surrounded by six celestial talismans constantly releasing powerful thunder spirits; Shanghuan arranged the Nine Debates Thousand Lights Formation, thirteen strands of spiritual energy coiled around the limbs of the Wolf demon.
The remaining disciples of Shu Mountain all attacked Ke Lingfei together.
"Immortals, the Wolf demon and Aragaki Nigaki killed our Hanging Garden sect leader. This enmity is irreconcilable!!" Si Li shouted loudly.
Qin Siye's expression changed suddenly upon hearing this, and he immediately rushed over.
"Third Senior Brother, Chief Disciple...?"
Si Li furrowed his brow, showing a sorrowful expression, "The power of gods and demons is too overwhelming... Chief Disciple has suffered fatal internal injuries and is beyond saving."
"I can't... I can't... Chief Disciple... It's impossible!!!!" Qin Siye glared angrily at the Wolf demon, then leaped up and dashed towards the Wolf demon's location.
Aragaki Nigaki fought on instinct with a blank mind. He swung his huge claws to block Qin Siye's attack, then turned to attack Lu Xingqian. The latter's agile body dodged and controlled the sword shadows to counterattack.
The Penglai's Nine Argument Thousand Light Array broke into thirteen light guides simultaneously, and the formation was broken in a single move.
Xu Changqing spiritual shock Suddenly, the Six Paths Heavenly Master's talisman spirit surged forward to attack the Wolf demon. However, he did not use his full strength.
The plan to disrupt the alliance and intimidate The Four Great Immortal Sects was orchestrated by Xu Changqing himself.
Before becoming an immortal, Xu Changqing harbored a deep hatred for the demon race and would kill on sight. After a unique and unforgettable experience, he changed his nature and advocated for equality among all living beings.
After painstakingly managing Shu Mountain for hundreds of years, it has always taught its disciples to treat the demon clan with great kindness. According to the rules of Shu Mountain Sect, evil demons are imprisoned, while benevolent demons are expected to share the spiritual veins with the human clan. For those who commit heinous crimes, Shu Mountain does not take their lives but instead purifies their demonic powers through Fang Qingping before imprisoning them again. The practices of Shu Mountain have influenced the later establishment of Emei and Qingcheng, making the Three factions of Shu Region a unique presence among the more than 200 immortal sects in Shenzhou.
At this moment, Xu Changqing's action is truly a last resort. On one hand, he does not want Aragaki Nigaki to go berserk and hurt people again, but on the other hand, he also does not want the other three immortals to kill Aragaki Nigaki. The various demon tribes in Shenzhou have risen up, and if their revered leader Aragaki Nigaki dies, it will no longer be possible to prevent war.
On the other side, Ke Lingfei was also caught in a bitter struggle. She was gradually overwhelmed by thirty Shu Mountain disciples, finding it difficult to defend herself. In a moment, she would surely perish under their swords. Xiao Yao made a quick decision, leaping forward to strike Ke Lingfei on the shoulder and pushing her out of the battle. He urgently said, "Stop fighting! Otherwise, I won't be able to save you!"
"Quickly go and save brother Aragaki! Hurry up!!"
"He will be fine..."
As he spoke, he chanted a spell. At the same moment, a dazzling light suddenly burst from the feet of Aragaki Nigaki who was in the midst of a fierce battle.
A deafening roar resounded through the sky, surpassing even the thundering noise of the waterfall. The four immortals' faces changed color as they retreated. After a moment, another roar echoed through the mountains, majestic and awe-inspiring, its reverberations lingering among the peaks for a long time.
"This is...!!!" Shanghuan widened his eyes in extreme fear.
Xu Changqing sighed softly, "It's Dragon's Roar..."
As the light gradually dissipated, a strange and "ferocious beast" appeared in front of everyone.
This "fierce beast" has the head of a dragon and the body of a snake, towering and fierce, with a length of over twenty zhang; it has two horns on its head, long white hair on its neck, and its body is surrounded by smoke and mist; its belly and back are covered with golden scales, shining brightly, and its four legs are sharp and pointed.
Looking at such a huge and monstrous beast, the four immortals looked at each other and retreated simultaneously.
Some timid disciples who had never seen such a scene in their lives immediately screamed and ran away.
Xu Changqing had become an immortal for hundreds of years, so he naturally knew the origin of this fierce beast. The other three people looked at him, trying to get the answer from his mouth. They only heard him say, " Dragon's Nine Sons... Qiu Niu!!"
