Shi Feiyang emerged from Spiritual Jade Peak, the battle outside still raging on.

He quickly assessed the situation and left Spiritual Jade Peak, flying southward from the left. He soon encountered the short elder, Zhu Mei, leading a group of young Emei disciples in a fierce battle against a horde of enemies.

The leader of the enemies was one of Deng Yin's disciples. Among them was a man named Wu Saqi, Deng Yin's eldest disciple and one of the three who practiced skin-peeling exercises.

Deng Yin had a total of fifteen disciples, and the three leading the pack possessed the greatest mana, each one a Sect Leader Level expert capable of splitting into three Blood Shadows.

After obtaining Ancient Divine Oil from a three-thousand-year-old tomb of the Wuhua Family, Deng Yin had helped them to also cultivate a Demon Flame Blood Flame, but they each only managed to refine a single flame.

Wu Saqi had also mastered the art of ten-finger Blood Flame Demon Light. He unleashed a chaotic barrage against the Emei Sect, while his Blood Shadow Whip danced through the air like a venomous snake.

In the previous duel, Zhu Mei had deployed the Qiantian Taiyin Soundless Divine Thunder she had sought from Miao Zhen Temple, completely annihilating four of Wu Saqi's junior brothers and two Blood Shadow Avatars, as well as destroying two of Wu Saqi's Magical Treasures. Fortunately for Wu Saqi, he had been cautious beforehand. Moreover, after emerging from the Star Constellations Sea, he had slain many and absorbed a great deal of fresh Essence Blood, allowing his Demon Skill to advance by leaps and bounds so that he avoided being destroyed, both body and soul.

The two sides engaged in an intense duel, with Blood Flame Demon Light clashing against Sword Qi and Thunder Fire, resulting in a tumultuous upheaval that left the surroundings in utter chaos.

On Zhu Mei's side, they desperately guarded themselves with the Dragon Sparrow Ring, while the two old men of the Song Mountain were such miserly figures. They spent their entire lives focusing on inner and outer cultivation, pursuing power without relying on external objects. They did not know how many Magical Treasures they could have refined if they had put their skills to it, instead of just sitting under a pine tree on Song Mountain playing chess with Bai Guyi.

According to their Daoist power, they had already surpassed the Heavenly Immortals of lesser sects and were not far from Ascension themselves. There were truly few under the heavens who could compel them to use various Magical Treasures. Yet, in critical moments, one always wishes for more treasures, and now, facing a master like Wu Saqi, all they could use was the Dragon Sparrow Ring they had obtained from Moon Island long ago.

The Child Mother Dragon Sparrow Ring was divided into two sets; the child ring, one blue and one yellow, was in the hands of Xiong Man. The Song Mountain elders held the mother ring, which emitted one red and one white circle when released. Now shared with Bai Guyi, each wielded one, and when deployed, only a solitary red ring remained. If it weren't for Zhu Mei's profound mana and unwavering spirit, he would have been vanquished by the Demon Skill long ago.

He constantly rotated the red ring, eliminating the incoming Demon Fire and Demon Light.

Beside him, Yi Jing offered the greatest support. Qi Shuming and Xun Lanyin were planning to escort the Yi Family away, but Yi Jing refused, allowing only Yi Ding and Yi Zhen to leave. She had emphatically stated, "Although I am of the Yi Family, I am also a disciple of the Emei Sect. Now that my sect is in peril, if all three of us Yi Family relatives were to flee out of cowardice, how could we ever face returning to Emei Mountain? If Master and Sect Leader True Master permit me to stay, then so be it; otherwise, please exile me from the sect, and I will leave on my own!"

Thus, she stayed. In the forefront of battle, she deployed the Seven Treasures intended for avenging herself against Jiu Panpo, now used against the vile throngs of the Demon Cult. Protecting herself with the Mantle Treasure Umbrella, she wielded the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror, Demonic Destruction Moon Crossbow, Scattering Light Pills, Evil Extinguishing Nine Smoke Pills, Anan Sword, and over a dozen other treasures from her family legacy and the Illusion Wave Pool. She threw them with abandon, her firepower even fiercer than the dwarfed elder Zhu Mei's.

On his way, Shi Feiyang sent a message through psychic sound transmission to Deng Yin, urging him to leave quickly as Li Jingxu was about to arrive.

When he finally joined the fray, Wu Saqi was seen using the Blood Shadow Whip to bind a fellow disciple, a follower of the Red Corpse God Monarch, who had voiced discontent that Deng Yin and his disciples came as guests but acted as masters from top to bottom. Not only did Deng Yin show insufficient respect for the Red Corpse God Monarch, but his disciples also lorded it over their fellow brothers, unbearable to endure.

He had rallied all disciples of the Red Corpse God Monarch to stand together against the domineering attitude of Deng Yin's disciples.

When Wu Saqi was alerted by his junior brothers, he took note of this and held a grudge. Although he restrained himself at the moment, faced today with a prolonged battle, he used the Blood Shadow Whip to encircle the man, casually flicking it to dissolve him into a lump of blood and flesh, which he then flung onto the Dragon Sparrow Ring.

The red Dragon Sparrow Ring immediately turned a dark crimson, the mass of blood pulsing inside it as though a fetus was continuously punching and kicking within.

The Dragon Sparrow Ring, a Demon Refinement treasure from Master Lianshan, ranked even higher than the Xuan Guang Ruler. If Zhu Mei had the complete set, with his current mana, he could have quickly dispelled the Demon Embryo. However, with only one half, it was instantly tainted. Exhaling Immortal Energy, Zhu Mei ignited the Taiyin Pure Yang Immortal Fire, which could purify the Demon Embryo, but it would take some time.

Wu Saqi then launched his Blood Shadow Whip towards Zhu Mei, who attempted to escape with the Formless Immortal Escape technique. However, he was tracked by the Blood Shadow Demon Technique, and the whip hunted him down like a Poisonous Snake, entangling with Zhu Mei's Flying Sword.

Wu Saqi let out a demonic howl and transformed into a Blood Shadow, dashing towards Zhu Mei with the ferocity of lightning.

A faint Demon Light revealed Zhu Mei's hidden presence, forcing him to reveal himself. As the Blood Shadow approached, he appeared panicked and deployed several spells and treasures in quick succession.

But to Wu Saqi, who had mastered the Blood Shadow Demon Technique, these were all futile. He closed in on Zhu Mei.

Just as the Blood Shadow was about to invade Zhu Mei's body, the wily old man let out a laugh and released a final Soundless Divine Thunder!

Before their arrival, Deng Yin's men had calculated that the two elders of Song Mountain would have obtained Soundless Divine Thunder from Yan Yingmu at Miao Zhen Temple. After cultivating the Blood Shadow Divine Skill, one becomes a Blood Shadow Avatar, impervious to blades, fire and water, and ordinary Magical Treasures. However, they were vulnerable to only a few rare items—Yan Yingmu's Soundless Divine Thunder was one of them.

In the original tale, all of Deng Yin's disciples were destroyed by the Soundless Divine Thunder, both body and soul!

Wu Saqi had already taken a hit from the Soundless Divine Thunder, but because he had been on guard beforehand and it hadn't hit his true body, together with his cultivation of the Blood Flame, he managed to save his life.

He thought that Zhu Mei had used up all of his Soundless Divine Thunder, only to be caught off guard when another strike came towards him. The golden light flickered silently, and his Blood Shadow original form was instantly scattered into a cloud of blood mist, within which were densely packed strands of blood.

Zhu Mei knew that these blood strands still contained fragments of Wu Saqi's memories and divided consciousness. If they dispersed, not only could they still harm others, but they could also potentially recover over time.

Ideally, destroying them completely with the Dragon Sparrow Ring would have been the best, but the Dragon Sparrow Ring, at that moment, was contaminated by the Blood Fetus. It hovered in mid-air, unable to move as it was scorched by Immortal Fire.

So, Zhu Mei launched the Taiqing Divine Light, enclosing all the scattered blood mist and blood strands, drawing them together, then sprayed the Pure Yang Immortal Fire to burn and refine them.

"Brother Zhu!" Tong Yuanqi came flying over from a great distance. "Let me lend you a hand!"

Zhu Mei, anxious to completely refine Wu Saqi, immediately called for Tong Yuanqi to also quickly release the Pure Yang Immortal Fire to speed up the demon refinement process.

However, it was his lack of vigilance that was his downfall. All his life, he outmaneuvered others, but when Tong Yuanqi approached him, he was taken off guard by the faint gleam of Demon Light in his eyes. Zhu Mei hastily formed hand seals to cast a spell, and that "Tong Yuanqi" suddenly fell backward, while a Blood Shadow directly pounced into his body!

This was Deng Yin's third disciple Asaba, the most cunning of all. Previously, he too had taken a strike from the Soundless Divine Thunder. Although it had damaged his Primordial Qi, he had not died. Using the cover of the Thunder Fire Sword Light, he opportunistically dove into the body of one of the Red Corpse God Monarch's disciples.

Then, posing as this disciple, he engaged in a swordfight with a member of the Emei Sect. While battling, he searched for his target and eventually selected the Emei Sect elder Tong Yuanqi. Catching him off guard, Asaba swiftly launched the Blood Shadow Divine Light. Tong Yuanqi's Flying Sword swept over his body to no avail, and two Magical Treasures struck him to no effect. Eventually, even his Protective Dharma Treasure was easily penetrated, and Asaba took over his body.

Next, he infiltrated the Emei Sect's ranks under the guise of Tong Yuanqi. Originally, his target was Li Yuanhua, and he was about to make his move when he saw Wu Saqi blown apart by the Soundless Divine Thunder. He hurried over, and even Zhu Mei, cunning as a fox, was deceived by him in his urgency.

But fortunately, in the last moment, Zhu Mei realized the Blood Shadow was attacking and quickly used the Mysterious Sect's most powerful Taiqing Immortal Technique to fiercely protect his own Primordial Spirit, while spreading Taiyin Pure Yang Immortal Fire all over his body.

Asaba pierced through the Taiqing Divine Light, crossed the Taiyin Immortal Fire, and burrowed into Zhu Mei's Mud Ball Palace, battling ferociously with Zhu Mei's Primordial Spirit.

As the two Primordial Spirits struggled against each other, Asaba realized he was no match for Zhu Mei and took control of Zhu Mei's body. Opening his mouth with great effort, he sucked all of Wu Saqi's burst blood mist and strands into his mouth!

These blood mist and strands were filled with a massive amount of Wu Saqi's memory fragments and consciousness, all of which Asaba absorbed. He then contested with Zhu Mei for control over the body, summoned the Blood Shadow Whip to his hand, and wrapped it around himself from head to toe. He then tightened it around his neck...

Shi Feiyang arrived just at this moment!

With Tong Yuanqi dead and Zhu Mei having "gone mad and become possessed," the young disciples of the Emei Sect were leaderless, most of them lost their fighting spirit, leaving only Yi Jing who grew braver with each shout and scolding.

However, her Anan Sword was also entangled by the Red Corpse Divine Light. Although it did not become contaminated and dysfunctional, it was still difficult to maneuver, and the Demon Refining True Fire shot from the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror was blocked by the Demon Fire.

Her Magical Treasures were indeed powerful, but her teammates were too poor. Only Li Yuanhua could still project some Divine Thunder; the others were not much use.

The arrival of Shi Feiyang revived hope in all the young disciples: "Uncle Master Yue is here! Uncle Master Yue has come!"

Without saying another word, Shi Feiyang released the Golden and Jade Divine Blade, intertwined spectrums of gold and jade blade light enveloping two of Deng Yin's disciples. Closing in and then spinning, they were immediately minced into chunks of flesh and blood.

Deng Yin's disciples were essentially all villainous, and although Shi Feiyang owed Deng Yin and wanted to help him, he felt no gratitude towards Deng Yin's disciples. Shi Feiyang had an agreement with Deng Yin but none with them. Their bodies emitted blood light, indicating they had recently consumed a lot of human blood. The last time he went to the Seven Evil Palace in West Kunlun, they had shown no respect for him. While Deng Yin addressed him as a brother, they were reluctant and resentful. He had long wanted to rid them of these monster disciples.

In fact, Shi Feiyang was puzzled why Master Changmei, back in the day, did not kill Deng Yin and these demon disciples after capturing them but instead kept and suppressed them at the bottom of the Star Constellation Sea.

Next, he simultaneously wielded his flying sword and Magical Treasures, employing spells from the Shaqing Secret Manual that suppressed demons, managing to forcefully push back four demons, instantly altering the situation on the battlefield!

Among these enemies, the toughest were Wu Saqi and Asaba. With both gone, the rest had not undergone the tough skin-cultivation process. Although their Magic was potent, it was nothing like the Blood Shadow Divine Skill which could turn into a red shadow, pouncing upon anyone they saw. Their bodies were made of ordinary flesh and blood, and when confronted with Flying Sword Magical Treasures, Immortal Fire, or Divine Thunder, they could be harmed.

For Yue Yun, facing the Sa twins with his Golden and Jade Divine Blade would not be wholly ineffective, but it wouldn't be very useful either. As a Blood Shadow, they could easily travel between the blade edges. His Five Clouds Sky Net could not stop the Blood Shadow from moving through it. If the real Yue Yun was present, facing these two demons, he would fare much worse than Zhu Mei.

Luckily, since both Sas were fighting inside Zhu Mei's body, Shi Feiyang easily dominated the remaining demons, akin to a tiger among sheep, and in a blink, he used his Flying Sword to slay another.
