#1080 - Shiman's Death
The expressions on everyone's faces changed drastically.
The power of the astral winds released by Azure Mystic Vulture was comparable to the full-force attack of a top-tier Nascent Soul cultivator using a low-grade spiritual treasure.
Moreover, the astral winds were all-encompassing, making them even more difficult to deal with than ordinary low-grade spiritual treasures.
Crimson River frowned, looking at the surging astral winds and their master, Azure Mystic Vulture, a sense of unspeakable resentment and unwillingness rising in his heart.
He was about to kill the Blood-Eyed Divine Ape, but this Azure Mystic Vulture actually interfered.
Previously, when he saw Azure Mystic Vulture suddenly appear and attack the Blood-Eyed Divine Ape, he was very anxious and worried, fearing that the Blood-Eyed Divine Ape would fall into the hands of Azure Mystic Vulture.
But in an instant, Azure Mystic Vulture was actually persuaded by the Blood-Eyed Divine Ape to turn its spearhead and attack them; this turned Crimson River's worry into shock and anger.
Crimson River's mind stirred, and a large expanse of blood waves surged from under his feet, condensing into a hundred-zhang tall blood wall, blocking in front of everyone.
"Rumble!"
The astral winds crashed against the blood wall.
The blood wall churned violently, teetering.
Just at this moment, another booming sound rang out.
The Blood-Eyed Divine Ape actually stopped fleeing, turned back to attack, and punched the blood wall.
Under the joint attack of two demonic beasts with divine beast bloodlines, the blood wall was overwhelmed, shattered with a bang, and turned into a rain of blood that scattered across the sky.
Everyone's hearts tightened at the sight of the blood wall shattering.
The five of them had joined forces to push the Blood-Eyed Divine Ape into a desperate situation, almost killing it; however, they had also paid a considerable price, with their magical power greatly depleted; and the natal magic treasures of Tang Gui and Sang Bu were damaged, temporarily unable to be used, and their strength greatly reduced.
Currently, among the five, the only one who could truly threaten Azure Mystic Vulture was Crimson River.
"Run!"
Crimson River was also decisive, showing no nostalgia for the eyes of the Blood-Eyed Divine Ape that were almost in his grasp; after shouting loudly, he turned around and ran.
With him setting an example, the others naturally followed suit, turning around and fleeing.
However, the level of cultivation and strength of the several people was instantly revealed.
Although Crimson River only had a Nascent Soul late-stage cultivation, his escape speed was no slower than Tang Gui, who was at the Nascent Soul peak stage, and since he was the first to run, he escaped to the forefront.
Tang Gui followed closely behind.
Further behind was Sang Bu.
As for Shi Man and Qi Luo, their speed was much slower, falling behind.
Qi Luo looked at Crimson River's departing back and cursed inwardly: Men are indeed ruthless!
In bed, they are lovey-dovey, full of sweet words; but at the critical moment of life and death, they only care about their own escape.
Serves you right for being poisoned by the Mortal Dust Fragrance!
Qi Luo slightly changed direction, rushing towards the front left.
Following behind Crimson River would only help him delay the two demonic beasts, becoming a sacrifice for his smooth escape.
And Shi Man, based on the same idea as Qi Luo, flew out diagonally to the front right.
She had just flown out a few miles when a look of surprise suddenly appeared on her face.
She found that the two demonic beasts did not chase after her.
Judging from the commotion coming from not far away, the two demonic beasts should have gone to chase Crimson River and the others.
Shi Man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, she did not relax her vigilance, but continued to flee with all her might.
Suddenly, she saw a figure appear in front of her.
This person was none other than 'Ye Hua'!
She suddenly realized that when Crimson River said the word 'run', she seemed to have not seen 'Ye Hua's' figure.
"Ye Hua, you are indeed clever, actually escaping one step ahead," Shi Man said somewhat mockingly.
Unlike Shi Man's all-out escape, Song Wen stood still.
He came here one step ahead, only to avoid the two demonic beasts; but he also wanted to secretly follow Crimson River, looking for an opportunity to attack; he judged the direction of his escape through the sound of Crimson River breaking through the air when he fled with all his might.
After he also discovered that the two demon races were chasing after Crimson River, he was immediately relieved, tracking two huge demon beasts was much easier than tracking Crimson River.
Song Wen ignored Shi Man, still listening carefully to the movements over there.
However, Shi Man saw that "Ye Hua" dared to ignore her, and a nameless fire rose in her heart.
She only thought that the reason why Song Wen ignored her was because Crimson River had promised: after this trip, he would let Song Wen follow him. Song Wen was therefore arrogant and fearless.
"Ye Hua, you dare to despise this elder. You're courting death!"
As she spoke, Shi Man had arrived a few zhang in front of Song Wen, raising her right hand and slapping towards Song Wen, intending to teach Song Wen a lesson for being ignorant.
Song Wen's face suddenly turned cold, and he looked at Shi Man with icy eyes.
Shi Man's heart suddenly tightened.
'Ye Hua' looked at her with the eyes of a dead man.
The other party was clearly only a Nascent Soul cultivator, but the chill and killing intent in his eyes made her feel chills all over her body and a sense of inexplicable fear.
Shi Man didn't know where this fear came from, but she subconsciously put down her palm and changed direction, wanting to avoid Song Wen.
"The one courting death is you!"
Song Wen snorted coldly, and a long spear suddenly appeared in his hand, sweeping towards Shi Man.
Feeling the aura suddenly erupting from Song Wen's body, Shi Man's eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Ye Hua, you are actually a Nascent Soul cultivator!"
Shi Man knew that she couldn't dodge the long spear, and immediately summoned a flying sword to meet the long spear.
A loud "clang" sounded.
The spear and sword clashed.
The flying sword let out a mournful cry and was immediately knocked away.
But Song Wen's long spear continued to sweep towards Shi Man with undiminished power.
Shi Man's expression was extremely terrified, she was actually no match for the other party.
"Ye Hua, you can't kill me..."
Before she could finish her words, she was swept in the waist by Song Wen's spear.
Instantly, Shi Man's entire body exploded, turning into a cloud of blood and dissipating in the air.
Shi Man's divine soul appeared.
The divine soul looked around, and found that her Nascent Soul was also crushed by this spear, and immediately fell into despair.
"Ye Hua, if you destroy my divine soul; Young Master Crimson River, Hidden Moon Hall, and Divine Blood Sect will not let you go," Shi Man said sternly, intending to deter Song Wen in order to save her divine soul.
"The Divine Blood Sect recruits people who practice the 'Longevity Art', but they just want to devour your life force to help them prolong their lives. Do you really think you are an important figure?" Song Wen said disdainfully.
"No! That's impossible! The Divine Blood Sect will definitely avenge me," Shi Man roared hysterically.
However, as soon as she said these words, her expression became astonished.
Just because, under Song Wen's feet, a piece of blood wave spread out, rolling towards the surrounding blood mist.
This scene was so familiar.
Not long ago, Crimson River had used the same trick, that was Crimson River's natal magic weapon; according to Crimson River, this natal magic weapon was unique to the Divine Blood Sect, and only core disciples were qualified to refine it.
In this way, isn't 'Ye Hua' also a member of the Divine Blood Sect!
Even a core member of the Divine Blood Sect!
Then what he said, is it all true!
As soon as these thoughts flashed through Shi Man's mind, the blood wave swallowed her divine soul.
Song Wen put a storage ring into his arms, and then a burst of blood mist emerged from his body, disappearing in place.
