Primordial Cultivator

The disciples were trying their best to hold their laughter after Elder Jing directly humiliated Elder Pan Cheng.

'Pftt, so that's what Elder Jing meant by the pathetic elder.' Yang Wei exclaimed inwardly.

At the same time, he sneaked a glance at Elder Pan Cheng who had his fist clenched tightly, almost like he was about to explode in anger.

'Damn it, if you weren't stronger than me then I would have killed you already.' Elder Pan Cheng cursed inwardly as he gritted his teeth.

Meanwhile, Elder Jing continued her explanation without caring about him, and by the time she finished, everyone nodded their heads in understanding.

"Good, since everyone understood the instruction, we'll start by having Elder Pan Cheng put a spatial barrier first alongside his disciples," Elder Jing clasped her hand and shouted.

Elder Pan Cheng twitched his mouth when he was put up in the frontline by Elder Jing.

"Why is it that our Tyrant Lion Sect must go up first? Why didn't you make the Phoenix Sky Sect go instead?" Elder Pan Cheng roared as he stepped forward.

He would not allow him nor his sect disciples to risk their lives in being the first person to put up a spatial barrier. After all, any mishaps and they would be the first ones to be devoured by the demons since their spiritual qi would be exhausted by that time.

"That was not up for negotiation." Elder Jing replied cold-heartedly.

"You- do you think I'm scared to go against you right here and now?" Elder Pan Cheng showed a fiery expression as his aura started to increase.

The Tyrant Lion Sect's disciples also followed suit as they all clenched their fists and murderous auras started to surround their bodies.

Elder Pao Huang turned solemn as he glared fiercely at the Tyrant Lion Sect's action.

As much as he was afraid of their sect, he would risk it all to protect him and his disciples.

'Hmph, if a fight is inevitable then so be it,' Elder Pao Huang exclaimed inwardly as he started to increase his aura as well.

While everyone was tense and afraid of the outbreak of a fight that could possibly cause chaos for the demons to spot them, Elder Jing suddenly laughed and said, "Heh, such pathetic auras and you want to scare me?"

Afterward, she increased her profound aura and the atmosphere quickly combusted with the oxygen slowly vanishing from the Tyrant Lion Sect member.

Elder Pan Cheng was worse as he could barely breathe and even if he tried to use his true qi to circulate oxygen, it seemed to be cut off midway.

Slowly, Elder Jing walked toward Elder Pan Cheng with a darkened expression. "I'll ask you one last time, are you going to be in the frontline or not?"

Elder Pan Cheng paled as he knelt on one knee because he could no longer stand properly from the intense pressure upon him.

Tilting his head upward, he saw Elder Jing's expression, and soon, fear overcame him as he quickly nodded his head.

"I-I'll do it…" Elder Pan Cheng uttered with much difficulty due to the compressed air.

Elder Jing nodded her head and released her profound aura that was pressuring him.

"Should have said that in the first place. Why did you have to force my hand and waste time?" Elder Jing then said as she turned back to her original location.

Meanwhile, Elder Fang Yunru held a dreadful expression at Elder Jing and pondered in his mind.

'H-How did Elder Jing's aura suddenly become so powerful? Did she obtain something from the Pagoda?' Elder Fang Yunru exclaimed inwardly before turning pale as he came up with a possibility.

The possibility was extremely ridiculous but he believed Elder Jing must have received the inheritance otherwise, there was no other explanation for the sudden rise in cultivation from Elder Jing.

'I-I must inform Sect Leader Meng Pao as soon as possible.' Elder Fang Yunru clenched his fist as he needed to relay this information to the emperor and ruler of the Phoenix Sky Sect.

Sometime later, when the Concealing Pill effect around the cave was over, Elder Jing said, "Alright, now's the time for the Tyrant Lion Sect to show their prowess."

Elder Pan Cheng nodded his head as he didn't wish to incur her wrath.

The rest of the Tyrant Lion Sect disciples also have their heads lowered as they were frightened by Elder Jing's prowess.

Thus, they all stood upfront without making a scene and started casting a spatial barrier around the entrance.

"Elder Jing, aren't you afraid of the Tyrant Lion Sect seeking revenge?" Yang Wei asked her softly once everyone became distracted from thinking about when the demons would launch their attacks.

"Afraid? Heh, the Tyrant Lion Sect is no longer as aggressive as they are in the past. After all, the emperor of the Phoenix Kingdom has long been dissatisfied with their Sect Leader." Elder Jing smirked as she wasn't afraid of them.

With her strength returning to her, she no longer has to hide in seclusion and be afraid of others.

Yang Wei nodded his head.

"Elder Jing is indeed impressive." Yang Wei then praised her.

Elder Jing smiled briefly and said, "You don't have to be full of admiration for me because you will have this kind of confidence when you become stronger."

"Heh, does that mean I will obtain your heart fully when that time comes?" Yang Wei said teasingly, hoping to crack some jokes to ease the current tension in their surroundings.

"Stinky brat, don't overthink yourself and focus on defending first." Elder Jing scoffed but her heart rate started beating a bit quicker.

Yang Wei shrugged his shoulders as he nodded his head once his intention was completed.

Sometime later, a loud roaring echoed from the outside and Elder Jing narrowed her eyes.

"Defend till the last minutes, the demons have spotted us." Elder Jing shouted once she sensed multiple demons outside the cave entrance.
