Eternal Life: Hundredfold Rewards

Chapter 575 - 318: A Feather-Light Sword Strike, Chi Yue’s Shock

At this moment, looking at the giant black demon shadow charging towards her at an incredible speed, Chi Yue True Monarch was greatly alarmed.

"This Tier Four Middle Grade Sea Demon has probably been lurking ever since I was battling the Purple-Scaled Squid. Only after I exhausted my strength and finally killed the Purple-Scaled Squid, greatly depleting my power, did it seize the opportunity to attack!"

"A Tier Four Middle Grade Sea Demon is extremely difficult to kill. With the Nascent Soul I have left now, it’s truly impossible for me to handle another one."

"What’s more, this one ambushing me isn’t just any ordinary Tier Four Middle Grade Sea Demon. Judging by the pressure it exudes, its strength is at least approaching the level of a human cultivator at the Quasi-Great True Monarch stage..."

"With such a powerful demon beast, even in peak condition I would find it difficult to deal with, let alone now?"

Thinking this way, Chi Yue True Monarch already gave up the thought of entangling with it.

It’s not just about fighting this Tier Four Middle Grade Sea Demon. It was now a question of whether she could escape safely.

"I must act decisively..."

Chi Yue True Monarch thought to herself in secret.

If she delayed any longer, she might not be able to leave.

"Red Blood Spirit Saber, explode!"

A trace of determination flashed in her eyes.

Quickly, she formed a spell with her hands.

Her most powerful Tier Four Middle Grade Spirit Treasure, the Red Blood Spirit Saber, immediately turned into a streak of blood-colored light, rapidly slashing towards the massive black demon shadow charging at her from a distance.

The spiritual power on the blood-colored light became chaotic and extremely unstable.

This action was not to fight against the Tier Four Middle Grade Sea Demon.

It was to use the Spirit Treasure’s self-destruction to hinder it.

Even though the Sea Demon’s strength was nearing the Quasi-Great True Monarch level of human cultivators, it would still be greatly affected by the self-destruction of her Red Blood Spirit Saber.

Then, she would take advantage of this opportunity to use the Escape Technique and immediately flee from this place.

This would give her the greatest chance of survival.

After all, even though Spirit Treasures are precious, compared to her own life, the choice was clear.

Regrettably, she had not yet had the chance to take the demon pill and some demon beast materials from the Purple-Scaled Squid she had just expended all her strength to kill.

Now, she also had to sacrifice a rather excellent Tier Four Middle Grade Spirit Treasure.

It was certainly a huge loss.

Shhh!

However, just as she was about to detonate the Red Blood Spirit Saber and simultaneously began forming a spell to use the Escape Technique and flee, suddenly a faint sound of something piercing through the air emerged from the distant void.

"What is that..."

Chi Yue True Monarch’s peripheral vision caught a glimpse of an azure glow.

In just the blink of an eye, the azure glow swiftly moved to the front of her line of sight.

In an extremely fast and graceful manner, it circled around the massive black demon shadow charging at her.

Then, it leisurely returned to the sky behind her.

"!!!"

In that instant, Chi Yue True Monarch’s beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.

The spell between her hands also subconsciously stopped.

"Moo!—"

A震esomely horrific roar resonated through the void.

Boom!

Subsequently, with a loud crash, the stone ground beneath her feet shook violently.

In her sight, the massive black demon shadow, like a meteor, plunged downwards, crashing into the stone ground.

Poof!

Demon blood splattered across the stone ground, painting it scarlet.

Gurgle...

A massive and hideous head, with two horns over a yard long protruding from its forehead, rolled far across the ground, finally stopping a yard from her.

A pair of demon eyes, as big as fists, glared at her with a look of resentment even in death.

The stench of blood, mixed with the odor of the demon beast from the head, was overpowering and unbearable.

Yet at that moment, Chi Yue True Monarch had no mind for the bloody scene and unbearable stench before her.

Her hands were frozen, staring blankly at the massive demon head and those seemingly lifeless demon eyes.

This was a Tier Four Middle Grade Sea Demon with strength nearing that of a human Quasi-Great True Monarch.

Just moments ago, she was ready to sacrifice her Red Blood Spirit Saber for a slim chance of survival.

But now, in just an instant.

Such a powerful Sea Demon was directly slain before her eyes?

"Such immense power... could the visitor be a Great True Monarch?"

With this thought in her heart, Chi Yue True Monarch’s expression turned solemn. She raised her gaze towards the distant sky.

There, she saw an azure sword glow slowly returning and landing in the palm of a handsome young man.

The youth wore a faint smile, exuding an otherworldly aura.

Most importantly, Chi Yue True Monarch keenly sensed a trace of lingering energy from his recent action.

"This is... the spiritual pressure of a Quasi-Great True Monarch..."

Chi Yue True Monarch’s pupils slightly contracted.

She was from the Cyan Gang Sect.

In the Cyan Gang Sect, there was also a Great True Monarch overseeing it.

So, while she herself was not at the level of a Quasi-Great True Monarch or Great True Monarch, she could still discern the difference in their spiritual pressures.

Yet, how could this person’s spiritual pressure be so terrifying if he was merely a Quasi-Great True Monarch?

Chi Yue True Monarch was greatly shocked in her heart.

She had once seen someone whose Nascent Soul height reached five-inch and ninety-five, and whose strength was extraordinarily formidable.
