The battle on Meteor Island raged fiercely as demons besieged the island. Amidst the intense fighting, Xiao Lan made a sudden appearance.
Having now become a Nascent Soul ghost cultivator, the blood threads she had consumed in the past had grown alongside her, their power far surpassing their former strength.
At this moment, Xiao Lan transformed into a cloud of ghost mist, within which blood threads coiled ferociously. Any demon that entered the mist would soon be expelled as a desiccated corpse.
In addition to Xiao Lan herself, she had brought a group of ghost helpers. Among them was a ghost at the Nascent Soul realm, and dozens of ghosts at the Golden Core realm.
These ghosts all obeyed Xiao Lan's commands and fought bravely.
As ghosts who had already died once, their lives were tougher than those of humans; they could not be killed by ordinary means.
The Lu Sect now had three Nascent Soul mid-stage ancestors: Ancestor Shangguan, Ancestor Jiang, and Ancestor Jin.
These three were more than capable of dealing with early-stage Nascent Soul demons.
Although Ji Wudi and Zhu Yu, the newly advanced Nascent Souls, were weaker, they each possessed their own unique abilities.
Zhu Yu's combat techniques were never particularly robust, but he had a desperate, final strike. However, after using such a killing move, he would become very weak.
Ji Wudi's physical body was now exceptionally strong, not much different from that of the black-scaled demon.
He was seen charging through the demon ranks with a large golden saber. Common attacks that landed on him felt like mere tickles.
His golden saber was powerful and swift; with each slash, golden light flashed, always accompanied by spurting blood and severed limbs!
Since Xiao Lan joined the fray, and with Xiao Fei's excessively arrogant display, the fury of the remaining Nascent Soul demons was finally ignited. Ten Nascent Souls simultaneously surrounded him, attacking with all their might.
His immobilization talismans could only freeze one person at a time, meaning he had to withstand the attacks of the remaining nine, which was quite difficult.
Fortunately, seeing him surrounded, Huang Feifei immediately flew to his side, helping him block several attackers.
Both Xiao Fei and Huang Feifei's wood spiritual roots had been boosted to over 100. Wood spiritual energy naturally possessed more vitality, granting them stronger self-healing abilities when injured.
As long as they weren't killed in a single blow, they could quickly recover from their injuries and maintain their formidable combat power.
Xiao Fei unleashed a defensive magical artifact, which floated above their heads. In just a single breath, it was smashed to pieces, and the residual force of the numerous attacks rained down upon them.
At the same moment, the evil blade "Bloodthirst" pierced into a demon's body. By the time "Bloodthirst" was withdrawn, the demon had already turned into a desiccated corpse.
"Bloodthirst" had continuously absorbed the blood of several demons, and was now entirely blood-red, emitting an eerie crimson glow, its power far exceeding that of ordinary magical artifacts.
Xiao Fei and Huang Feifei, enduring the attacks from the remaining nine, were now covered in bloody wounds.
Just as Xiao Fei was about to control "Bloodthirst" to attack the next demon, a sudden anomaly occurred.
The blood on himself and Huang Feifei was uncontrollably drawn towards "Bloodthirst."
At a critical moment, it was actually trying to devour its master!
Xiao Fei quickly circulated his divine consciousness throughout his body, forcibly controlling this rebellious magical artifact. The evil blade "Bloodthirst" trembled violently but ultimately obeyed Xiao Fei's command, flying towards the next demon.
During the brief moment Xiao Fei was forced to control "Bloodthirst," the second wave of attacks from the nine demons arrived. Fortunately, Xiao Lan arrived in time.
Although the three of them still struggled to withstand the attacks from the nine demons, they were in a much better state.
Moreover, Xiao Fei controlled "Bloodthirst" to strike again, and with the aid of the immobilization talisman, he once again easily dealt with a demon, leaving only eight remaining on the field.
"Bloodthirst" once again drained a Nascent Soul demon, and the blood light on the evil blade grew brighter, with a blood-red glow extending over a foot long, flickering unstably.
On the entire battlefield, anyone with a wound, even a menstrual period was included, their vital blood sprayed out from the wounds and surged towards "Bloodthirst."
The battle had been ongoing for so long that everyone had sustained some injuries. At this moment, all the humans, ghosts, and demons on the field were being attacked indiscriminately by the evil blade "Bloodthirst."
If their own people weren't caught in it, it would have been a good thing; "Bloodthirst" would have simply wiped out the entire field.
Furthermore, the more blood "Bloodthirst" absorbed, the stronger its power became, and the more unstoppable it was, to the point where Xiao Fei could no longer control it.
"Retract!"
Xiao Fei concentrated all his divine consciousness, enveloping the evil blade "Bloodthirst," and shouted. "Bloodthirst" vanished into the air, and he stored it within his spatial realm.
After "Bloodthirst" entered the spatial realm, it still tried to absorb the vital blood of the Iron Fire Ants and Flying Fish, but Xiao Fei mobilized the spatial spiritual energy to completely suppress it.
After suppressing the evil blade "Bloodthirst," the people on the battlefield were only stunned for a moment before quickly resuming their fighting.
After all, this was a battle of life and death!
After this incident, fifteen Nascent Soul demons remained. Most of them were killed by Xiao Fei, and three Nascent Soul demons died, namely Ancestor Jiang, Zhu Yu, and one killed by Xiao Lan.
On Xiao Fei's side, only the son of Green Bean Eyes, Golden Rat, and Ji Wudi were severely injured among the Nascent Soul cultivators.
The ghosts brought by Xiao Lan also suffered many injuries.
Xiao Fei's side now had 11 Nascent Souls, facing 15 demons. However, Meteor Island had three mid-stage Nascent Souls who could simultaneously tie up several opponents.
Therefore, the battlefield had gradually shifted in Xiao Fei's favor.
With "Bloodthirst" temporarily unusable, Xiao Fei took out his pair of hundred-thousand-jin great hammers and smashed them into the demon ranks.
His immobilization talismans also worked well in conjunction with the great hammers, though sometimes, against tough-skinned demons, it required more blows and took more time.
Just as he killed his tenth Nascent Soul demon with his own hands, the remaining demon cultivators lost all will to fight and fled.
However, while Nascent Souls could escape, the common Golden Core demons could not evade the deadly grasp of these Nascent Soul powerhouses.
Xiao Fei looked at the ground strewn with demon corpses. In this battle, a total of 15 Nascent Soul demons and over a hundred Golden Core demons were killed.
On his side, Golden Rat, Ji Wudi, Zhu Yu, the Nascent Soul ghost cultivator, and Ancestor Jin, these five were severely injured and would likely need one to two years to recover.
Especially Golden Rat, whose head was bitten off and eaten. Green Bean Eyes wailed for a long time holding the headless body.
However, for a Nascent Soul expert, losing a head was not fatal; as long as the Nascent Soul remained, a new head could grow.
At the Nascent Soul level, it was already very difficult to kill someone completely.
The main reason why so many Nascent Soul demons died this time was because of Xiao Fei.
Initially, he combined the immobilization talismans with the evil blade "Bloodthirst," and almost no one could escape his deadly grasp.
Later, when the evil blade "Bloodthirst" encountered some issues, he replaced it with the great hammers. Although the efficiency was slightly lower, he could still completely slay the immobilized demons.
After this battle, his long-nurtured immobilization talismans were depleted of their power when he killed the tenth demon, requiring him to retract them into his body for re-cultivation.
