First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 207: The Reappearance of the Heavenly Demons

After pondering for a long time, Zhou Shili prepared to first ask Shen Mo for his opinion before making a decision.

"Kid, if I were to accept you as my personal disciple, would you..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Zhou Shili's expression changed, and like many powerful Linghai realm experts, he looked down.

At this moment, Shen Mo also sensed a hint of danger.

"Could it be..."

"Boom!"

The suspended stone platform suddenly shook violently.

While stabilizing his figure, Shen Mo also looked down.

Under the Tian Mountain, a deep abyss cracked open, and as the cracks spread, they tore through the ground where many disciples of the immortal sects were located.

Fortunately, those gathered here were the elite disciples of various sects, and their reactions were extremely quick. They immediately used their treasures and flew away from the collapsed ground.

But immediately after, an immensely powerful demonic aura blew out from the cracks.

Within the overwhelming demonic aura, there were figures flying out from the cracks, roaring madly as they charged towards the scattered disciples of the immortal sects.

Shen Mo was very familiar with these figures. They were the original Heavenly Demons that had not been tainted by demonic energy!

But their numbers were overwhelming, numbering in the tens of thousands!

There were also many Heavenly Demons whose auras were so powerful that even Shen Mo was shocked!

In the blink of an eye, an area of a hundred miles in radius became the domain of the Heavenly Demons.

"Not good, it's an invasion of the Lower Realm Heavenly Demons! They have actually opened a passage in the underground of the Tian Mountain." Yan Shi, the Yan Corpse Daoist of the Ghost Corpse Sect, changed his expression and said urgently.

Elder Yan Yue of the Yan Yue Sect spoke anxiously, "The disciples gathered here are all outstanding disciples of our sects. If they are all tainted by demons, the losses will be significant. We must act quickly and sweep away the demonic aura!"

But Dustless Sword Master of the Heavenly Sword Sect had a different opinion.

His eyes flashed with sword light, and his body was like a sword humming, "We can't worry about them now! If we don't block the passage, even third-stage Heavenly Demons will cross over, and it will be even more difficult to deal with them!"

Zhou Shili, the Peak Master of the Star Peak, nodded and said firmly, "Dustless Fellow Daoist is right!"

"The cultivation strength of the disciples gathered here is not weak. I believe they can handle this crisis. Even if they can't win, they can still escape with their lives."

"Our immediate priority is to go to the bottom of the mountain and seal the spatial passage as soon as possible!"

The Linghai realm experts of the Seven Star Altar also agreed with Dustless Sword Master and Zhou Shili's proposal.

These dozen or so experts communicated through divine thoughts, so in a short moment, they decided on a plan.

Then, they turned into streams of light and broke through the overwhelming demonic aura, rushing towards the depths of the cracks!

Wherever they passed, the demonic aura was suppressed.

A large number of Heavenly Demons that rushed out were torn to pieces!

However, it was like inserting a willow branch into a beehive. The densely packed Heavenly Demons continued to emerge crazily.

On the suspended stone platform, Shen Mo and the other ten participating disciples also controlled their treasures and flew towards their respective sect teams.

Most of the disciples of the immortal sects had scattered due to the onslaught of countless Heavenly Demons.

Treasures, talismans, immortal techniques, and various spiritual lights were flying everywhere, attacking the countless demonic shadows, creating a chaotic situation.

"Senior Brother Lu, if the Heavenly Demons become too powerful, let's return to the Tian Mountain City first! There is a formation there, which is relatively safe." Shen Mo informed Lu Ming through divine thoughts.

Although he didn't understand why there would be a passage to the Heavenly Demons in the underground of the Tian Mountain, he knew that the current situation was not good.

With the surging demonic aura and the emergence of tens of thousands of original Heavenly Demons, the numbers were already overwhelming.

Moreover, they continued to emerge from the cracks.

Among them were mid-to-late second-stage Heavenly Demons, and even peak second-stage Heavenly Demons.

Relying solely on the five major sect disciples here, they were probably unable to completely exterminate them all.

Only the Peak Masters and others could seal the passage of the Heavenly Demons and stop this tide of demons from its source in order to completely eliminate these small and large demon heads!

"Five Thunder Method, Purple Sky Thunder!"

Lu Ming held the Heavenly Thunder Banner and continuously used arcs of thunder to repel the approaching celestial demons. He transmitted his voice and asked, "Alright, I understand! Where are you going, Junior Brother?"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Shen Mo changed his transportation to a flying sword and the brilliance of his Demon-slaying Sword extinguished several celestial demons.

With a turn of his body, he flew towards the collapsed ground and said, "Senior Sister Lingyin, along with several senior brothers and sisters, are being held back by the demon leader. I'll go help them!"

During the collapse of the ground, some disciples of the immortal sect were not quick enough to control their flying devices.

As a result, they were surrounded by the surging celestial demons!

Peak Master Zhou Shili and more than ten other powerful experts at the Spiritual Sea Realm casually displayed their immortal techniques, helping them fend off the celestial demon attacks.

However, the celestial demons were as numerous as a locust swarm!

Zhao Lingyin and the others had not run far before they were surrounded again.

Together with other disciples of the immortal sect, there were more than ten people forming a small battle group, unleashing attacks to block the onslaught of the celestial demon tide.

It was like a small boat in a storm, on the verge of capsizing at any moment!

"Clang!"

The sharp and clear sword energy, radiant like a rainbow, created a path for Shen Mo!

He flew like thunder and in an instant, he had arrived beside Zhao Lingyin. Immediately, seven swords flew out from his sleeve.

"Seven Stars of the Big Dipper Sword Formation. Rotate!"

In an instant, hundreds of celestial demons surrounding Zhao Lingyin and the others were all enveloped within the sword formation.

Most of them were at the early stage of the second rank, with a few at the middle stage of the second rank.

But for the Big Dipper Sword Formation, the difference was not significant!

The majestic sword light shone, and within a few breaths, all the celestial demons in the sword formation were killed.

However, near the exit of the ground crack, in such a short period of time, more than two hundred celestial demons, carrying a demonic aura, rushed towards Shen Mo and the other disciples of the immortal sect.

While protecting Zhao Lingyin and the others with the sword formation, Shen Mo freely wielded his Demon-slaying Sword, unleashing sword energy.

His spiritual energy was rapidly depleting!

"Senior Sister Lingyin, are you alright?"

Shen Mo swept his divine sense and his heart sank.

He saw Zhao Lingyin with her eyes tightly closed, her face showing signs of pain. If it weren't for a senior sister from the Linyang Sect supporting her, she probably wouldn't even be able to stand at this moment.

"Junior Brother Shen, just now it seemed like a demonic shadow entered between Lingyin's eyebrows!"

This senior sister from the Linyang Sect, Shen Mo had met her a few times before.

Her name was Yao Ting, an elite disciple of the Xingchen Peak, with a cultivation at the late stage of the Gathering Qi Realm.

If it weren't for taking care of these disciples who were slightly weaker in strength, she wouldn't have been surrounded by celestial demons.

"I'll take care of Lingyin, thank you for your help, Senior Sister Yao!"

Shen Mo took Zhao Lingyin from Yao Ting's hands and thanked her.

Immediately, a strange expression appeared on Yao Ting's face!

She thought to herself that the peak master had instructed them to take good care of Zhao Lingyin, and she didn't hesitate to help this talented female alchemist.

But she had never heard that Junior Brother Shen Mo had such a close relationship with Zhao Lingyin!

They hadn't seen them talking or communicating along the way.

How could it be so natural for him to take Zhao Lingyin from her hands and even thank her on her behalf...

But the situation was urgent at the moment.

After a moment of thought, Yao Ting no longer delved into the matter.

"Senior Sister Yao, fellow disciples, Fellow Daoists. I will use the sword formation to shield the celestial demons. Afterwards, we will head towards Tian Shan City!"

Shen Mo held Zhao Lingyin tightly in one hand and his Demon-slaying Sword in the other, speaking loudly.
