Jiang Feng glanced to his side, where Xuan Hezi had disappeared without warning. He had left an array imprint on his body a long time ago, but Liu Tangxi suddenly braked, and her body stopped abruptly as if defying physics.

"Take this from me, old man!"

The shock was such that it seemed like the Divine Soul was about to leave the body.

The immense force and overwhelming Sword Qi were madly invading the body. The cooperation between the Jiu He brothers was truly perfect.

One engaged in melee combat to hold down the opponent, while the other attacked from a distance. With Liu Tangxi's experience, she could naturally deduce that this was a standard battle strategy. If she guessed correctly, there should be another person responsible for providing Spiritual Energy and healing injuries.

She guessed right.

In their youth, they indeed acted as a trio, but the elder responsible for healing had passed away, leaving only the Jiu He brothers.

Moreover, the Xuanyin Sect couldn't send a third person either, as the Xuanyin Sect was hard-pressed. They originally needed to send people to the East Sea to discuss matters regarding the Phoenix Heavenly Cave.

All city gate passes needed staff, and Xuanyin City also required experts to oversee matters; they couldn't leave just the Sect Leader as a lone commander.

Most of the Xuanyin Sect disciples had chosen to venture out after the martial arts gathering, so they naturally needed protection. Even if favoritism existed, other disciples needed experts to escort them.

With Xuan Yinzi out, sending two elders was already difficult. Only six elders remained in the entire Xuanyin Sect.

Furthermore, the Great Elder chose to seclude himself to prolong his life. Considerable effort was made for Xuan Yinzi, including the Bone Dragon controlled earlier by Xuan Jiuzi, which belonged to Elder Jiu.

These elders were fellow disciples who grew up together and mostly remained childless. Thus, for them, Xuan Yinzi was akin to a grandchild.

They naturally doted on him, to the extent that Xuan Jiuzi gave away his lifelong Bone Dragon to his nephew-grandson as a lifebound item. Indeed, Xuan Yinzi was the one who lacked ambition; had he shown more...

Even the Dragon Spitting Pearl in Xuan Jiuzi's possession belonged to Xuan Yinzi.

Yes, the boy was playful from a young age, lacking the diligence to learn various spells. The item was just a decoration for him. Otherwise, Jiang Feng would face an Earth Rank Magic Treasure.

In the end.

No one expected the nephew-grandson to meet such an end.

"Treading the waves!"

"The sound resonates!"

"Endless calamity!"

Each shout was strong and powerful, with Sword Qi surging. Although it couldn't match Liu Tangxi's Sword Qi that spanned tens of miles, his blade emphasized one word.

Shock.

The metallic clash sparks flew into his eyes, yet even this couldn't make Liu Tangxi's eyes move an inch.

She reversed her grip backward, letting the sword blade lay against the inside of her arm. This was the most standard defensive stance, pressing down forcefully, and a single kick on the knife's back, before the second wave of Sword Qi could sweep, released a burst of Sword Qi that instantly dispelled the move.

The Seventh Elder did not hesitate. After the first surprise attack failed, he receded from battle, using Elder Jiu's array to surprise unawares, a commonly used strategy in their skirmishes.

As expected, after a brief delay, the Bone Dragon with broken bones once again soared into the sky.

"Dragon Spitting Pearl, return, Cangbei Green Dragon, reveal your true form!"

Raising both hands, the blue Treasure Bead turning in his palm was directly held in the Bone Dragon's mouth at this moment.

A moment's divine soul reverberation coursed through, and the soul power contained in the Dragon Spitting Pearl actually directly bonded with the Bone Dragon!

Even Liu Tangxi stopped at this point, refraining from advancing hastily. She tilted her head, watching the massive Bone Dragon with apparent interest. After seeing the Seventh Elder flee through the array to stand before Elder Jiu,

Roar!

It let out an angry roar.

For the Bone Dragon's massive size, losing a few bones was negligible. Strong Dragon Energy and Dragon Power emanated as the Bone Dragon trembled upon swallowing the Dragon Spitting Pearl, starting to regenerate flesh and blood at a visible rate!

Flesh spread and grew along the bones, with even the interiors nourishing organs, gradually filling the body step by step.

The growth of flesh was followed by Dragon Skin, Dragon Sinews, Dragon Scales, Dragon Claws, and Dragon Horns, as a long-dead skeleton was revived in moments by Elder Jiu, to the point where anyone would likely gasp on witnessing this.

The Seventh Elder stood motionlessly in front of Elder Jiu, staring unblinkingly at Liu Tangxi.

It's known that any expert's first reaction in battle is to kill the rear-line mage first, Liu Xianzi included in this habitual thinking.

The strategists who engaged in spell arrays and curses were often challenging to subdue after closing the distance. Their thoughts and focus remained on their spells, as traditionally mages were weak in hand-to-hand combat.

Therefore, at the start, Liu Tangxi's primary target was Xuan Jiuzi.

"Interesting."

A subtle change finally graced her calm expression.

"Not a True Dragon, possessing only four claws; if it were a True Dragon, this Xuan Jiuzi wouldn't have the right to subdue it. The dragon's body has a bluish hue, head with two horns but no whiskers."

"The flesh remains, thus likely stored in that Lifebound Dragon Pearl. The divine soul shattered, body collapsed, but its cultivation is genuinely high. A dragon species reaches ten feet in adulthood, adding an inch each year thereafter."

"Judging by its tens of feet-long body, it probably has a millennium of cultivation. Based on this stance, it couldn't pass the great tribulation and was finally discovered by Elder Jiu, who refined its skeleton."

"Quite interesting indeed."

Earlier, she intervened forcibly to interrupt the summoning array. Now, realizing the opponent was fully recovering the dragon's body, she wasn't in a hurry anymore.

She had dealt with such beings before, all sorts of dragons and serpents, even slain many. Besides, interrupting now was impossible.

The Seventh Elder stood vigilantly like a bodyguard.

To be honest, unless the summoning involved an outer-world Heavenly Demon, she wasn't concerned with any opponent.

Although she seemed to have the upper hand, letting him summon an outer-world Heavenly Demon would be troublesome. She had dealt with one personally, knowing just how preposterous they were.

In her global travels before, she ventured farthest west beyond the Demon Race, crossing the entire Jiuzhou towards the great desert in the west.

The environment was harsh, with natural calamities and uninhabited conditions. Even the occasional passerby had drastically different appearances, including those Demon Beasts unknown to her prior.

There were massive lizards, various peculiar insects, even a group of giant beasts that could summon meteorites, grotesque and bizarre, true chimeras. Any one of these entering the Central Plains would cause a dramatic uproar.

Summoning a god is easier than sending it away, and history had incidents of magicians globally creating disastrous events through array summonings, just reading the records spikes the blood pressure.

Yet now...

She simply couldn't be bothered to act.

She directly picked up dozens of swords,

Grasping the Tangxi Sword, she sheathed it in reverse, starting to accumulate Sword Qi, which resulted in
