785 Unable to Escape
ROAAAR-!
As the demonic cultivator who ha broken through to the Third Demonic Transformation Realm looked towards them, the group of elders from the Ascendant Frost Hall all understood how dangerous their current situation was.
Not to mention the fact that the demonic cultivator had managed to find them before they had a chance to escape, the rest of the demonic cultivators who had passed over the border also turned their attention towards them as a large number of them directly began charging towards them filled with killing intent.
Even if the terrifying demonic cultivator who had transformed into a more than 10 meter tall demon had not made a move and was still in the process of stabilizing his cultivation realm after having just broken through, the elders of the Ascendant Frost Hall all understood that it would only be a matter of time before the demonic cultivator finished stabilizing his cultivation base and took action.
"Let's keep moving, we should be fine as long as we don't get caught before the people from the Star Shattering Sect shows up… "
Understanding that it would bad for them if they ended up stuck in a fight with the demonic cultivators currently rushing towards them, one of the Ascendant Frost Hall elders took the lead as she said this.
"Indeed, we should get going…"
As the rest of the elders agreed with this, the group of elders from the Ascendant Frost Hall began leaving once again.
However, just at this moment, the more powerful demonic cultivators chasing after them rapidly increased their speed for a short moment-
Whoosh-!
Whoosh-!
Whoosh-!
Allowing three demonic cultivators with a strength similar to the two Nascent Soul Realm elders of the Ascendant Frost Hall to catch up to them. Forcing the group to come to a stop as one of the demonic cultivators directly blocked their path forward with a small smile filled with greed on his face.
"Haha, look at these local cultivators! I'm sure consuming their life essence will be able to help me increase my strength!"
Boom-!
Not wasting even a single second after saying this, the demonic cultivator that had stepped in front of them to block their escape path directly launched an attack towards one of the two Nascent Soul Realm elders.
Bang!
Getting caught off-guard by the sudden attack, the Nascent Soul Realm elder only barely managed to defend himself against the attack as he was sent flying into a forest located next to where they were standing.
"This- Die you demon!"
Not expecting for the elder who had been right beside him to suddenly get sent flying, the remaining Nascent Soul Realm elder from the Ascendant Frost Hall froze for a split second before he attacked the demonic cultivator filled with killing intent-
Boom!
His aura belonging to a Fifth Stage Nascent Soul Realm Expert spread out as all of his strength gathered together and smashed into the demonic cultivator.
"Aaaahh-!"
BOOOM-!
As the elder from the Ascendant Frost Hall began violently beating up the demonic cultivator, the two remaining demonic cultivator watching from the side could not help freezing on the spot as they looked towards the elder from the Ascendant Frost Hall with fear.
Clearly, they did not expect that they group of people they had moved to intercept had someone above the earlier stages of Nascent Soul Realm… What's more someone who had reached the Sixth Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm!
"Help me! Don't forget the lord is still around, we only have to stop them from escaping!"
As the two demonic cultivators were considering whether or not to join the fight and help the demonic cultivator in the process of getting beaten up by the powerful Nascent Soul Realm elder from the Ascendant Frost Hall, the desperate roar of the demonic cultivator in question echoed out just before he was once again sent smashing into the ground.
""…""
Looking at each other for a short moment after hearing what the demonic cultivator said, the remaining two demonic cultivator didn't hesitate any longer as both of them jumped in to help dealing with the powerful elder from the Ascendant Frost Hall.
Even if the other party was stronger than them, they did not believe that the other party had the ability to kill them before their lord managed to finish stabilizing his cultivation base and came to help them.
After all, even if they were weaker than the other party, demonic cultivators were well known for their powerful physical bodies and ability to survive a far bigger beating compared to normal cultivators not of the demonic path!
Bang-bang-bang!
"Wh-what is this…?"
By the time that the Nascent Soul Realm elder who had been sent flying returned, the three demonic cultivators were all in the process of getting beaten up as they tried their best to prevent the powerful elder at the Sixth Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm from leaving together with the Core Formation Realm elders who could only stand around and watch from the side.
Whoosh~
Knowing that things were getting desperate as the aura of the terrifying demonic cultivator in the distance started growing more stable and powerful with each passing second, the elder didn't waste any time after seeing this as he jumped in to help dealing with the three demonic cultivators.
"Everyone, leave now!"
As a result of the three demonic cultivators falling into a disadvantageous position, the Core Formation Realm elders finally saw an opportunity as they all used this opportunity to leave the area affected by the fight and escape in the opposite direction of the terrifying demonic cultivator in the distance.
"Haha, looks like we still have a chance to leave!"
"Indeed, let's try to move away from here while keeping these three away from the rest of the elders…"
Seeing that the Core Formation Realm elders were no longer at risk of getting killed by the demonic cultivators, the two Nascent Soul Realm elders worked together to stop the three demonic cultivators from chasing after them as they slowly moved further and further away from the terrifying demonic cultivator.
BOOOOOOM-!
However, just as the elders from the Ascendant Frost Hall were starting to once again relax and feel that they were out of danger, a terrifying aura filled with killing intent exploded from the distance before locking on to every single one of them.
"This is- The demonic cultivator already finished stabilizing his cultivation base!?"
As the most powerful person among the people present, the Sixth Stage Nascent Soul Realm Expert from the Ascendant Frost Hall was the first to realize what was happening as he turned to look in the direction of the terrifying demonic cultivator filled with fear.
"Looks like we won't be able to escape this place alive…" Muttering this to himself as the terrifying demonic cultivator in the distance slowly turned to look towards them again, the Sixth Stage Nascent Soul Realm elder felt his entire body freeze up as he felt like an ancient demon beast was looking at him.
"""…"""
Hearing what the powerful Nascent Soul Realm Elder said, everyone turned to look towards the more than 10 meter tall demon in the distance filled with fear. The demonic cultivators included.
Faced with a demonic cultivator that had reached a realm similar to that of the Domain Lord Realm, they all felt a primal fear welling up in them as they understood that they stood no chance against the other party. Even the thought of resistance completely disappeared when confronted with the sheer difference in power between the Nascent Soul Realm and someone in the Domain Lord Realm.
Bang!
Crack~!
Followed by the sound of the ground shattering, the terrifying demonic cultivator that had become a more than 10-meter-tall demon took a step forward and instantly crossed half the distance between them-
BANG-!
With another step, the terrifying demonic cultivator had already arrived in front of them!
Even if the demonic cultivators didn't stop of us, there would be no way for us to escape in time against this speed…
Understanding that there had never been a chance for them to escape in the first place, the Sixth Stage Nascent Soul Realm Expert from the Ascendant Frost Hall could not help feeling a sense of despair welling up inside of him upon realizing just how large the distance between himself and someone in the Domain Lord Realm was.
ROAR!
Not saying anything in a human voice, the terrifying demonic cultivator only let out a single roar before his massive hands filled with demonic claws grabbed down towards the group of elders who had lost any will to resist the demonic cultivator at this point in time-
Swish-!
However, just before the demonic hand could reach them, a sword light swept over from the distance before cutting through the arm of the demonic cultivator-
Ptsh~
Bang!
Directly severing it before the demonic cultivator had any time to respond to the sudden attack!
ROOOOOOOOOOOAR-!
Only able to let out a painfilled roar as it looked towards the direction that the sword light had come from.
