On this side, Ruoshui and Lao Wu had temporarily fought to a draw, with Ruoshui slightly gaining the upper hand.

Xiao Yang was trapped in dire peril, hanging by a thread and waiting for her rescue. She had promised to follow him through life and death, yet at the crucial moment, she was unable to stay by his side.
Because of this, Ruoshui had been waiting—waiting for the optimal moment to strike, intending to use the Yin Thunder Bead to draw the attention of the Tusk-Avoiding BOSS and then unleash his ultimate ultimate move. However, he had not expected that while waiting, Taotie would lose its patience and preemptively unleash its ultimate technique.

Zhuo Hulaan gripped his long spear with both hands and raised it above his head to parry. With a crisp snap, the hard white waxwood shaft was shattered into two pieces by Zhao Cao’s staff. The impact sent Zhuo Hulaan staggering back several steps, though fortunately, he was immediately shielded by the Jin soldiers swarming behind him.

"What kind of price is that? Don't try to rip me off with an exorbitant demand," a white-robed youth sitting nearby seemed to know him well and directly asked for the price.
Monstrous waves of fire suddenly swept outward, instantly obliterating the buildings within a radius of a thousand feet. Waving his hand, Xiao Yang summoned a large flame barrier to enclose the terrified members of the Shen family, thereby sparing them from being incinerated.

Amidst the raging black wind across the sky, Chiyan’s body trembled, and a cluster of deep yellow flames danced before its chest, instantly transforming into a gorgeous crystal flower that stood before it.
However, with someone like Zhao Yuanzuo, I knew deeply that he had to be beaten into submission; otherwise, endless troubles would ensue later on.
Moreover, rather than tearing his body apart and obliterating him completely, these two kinds of vital energy protected him, nurturing his growth until he became an peerless genius.

With those words, he took the glowing rod from earlier, strode forward once more, and brought the luminous end slightly closer to the puppet.
Upon hearing this, the members of the Crown Prince's faction let out an angry shout on the spot and directly detonated their natal blood essence.

Including the Black and White Impermanences, the Ten Yama Kings, and the evil ghosts, there were a full seventeen Tier 15 powerhouses on this side, among whom twelve were high-level Tier 15 and five were peak Tier 15.
