"How dare you!" The child, seeing that the possessed body dared to kill someone right in front of him, raised both eyebrows. With a shake of the rainbow light in front of him, it transformed into countless crystalline red threads shooting towards the Tian Sha True Lord.
The elder with the surname Jiang also had a drastic change in expression. He hurriedly spat out a yellow flying sword to shield his entire body and hastily retreated with a single step.
He dared not take the brunt of an attack from the leader of a major sect.
The Tian Sha True Lord revealed a sinister smile, abruptly changing direction and flashing to the side of the white-clad woman. His purple claw unceremoniously aimed at her arm.
The white-clad woman, already in a state of shock due to the scholar being revealed as a traitor, was even more flustered by the sudden attack from the Tian Sha True Lord. She threw the long-faced elder to the ground without thinking and, with a quick gesture, shot a green light from her sleeve to desperately block the attack.
However, amidst wild laughter, the Tian Sha True Lord made another feint and grabbed the long-faced elder from the ground, effortlessly lifting him. With his single hand forming a giant fist, flashing with purple light, he countered the incoming fiery red sword threads.
A muffled grunt was heard, and the old demon involuntarily took two steps back. But he also used this move to gently float back to his original position with the long-faced elder in hand.
The long-faced elder, seemingly under some spell, leapt up and bowed to the Tian Sha True Lord, thanking him:
"Thank you, True Lord, for saving me!"
"Hmph! If we weren't short-handed here and afraid of jeopardizing the mission, I wouldn't save a small fry from the righteous path like you. Whether you can keep your life depends on your own abilities." The Tian Sha True Lord coldly snorted before swiftly moving towards the child with the surname Lan again.
This time, he genuinely intended to entangle the child, giving Du Dong and the others a chance to escape.
"Let's go! I've tampered with the restriction outside; its power is less than a tenth of usual, and we can easily break through." The long-faced elder, a decisive figure, shouted to Du Dong and the scholar before rushing towards the stone gate where the elder with the surname Fu and others were standing.
Du Dong and the scholar were overjoyed. One released two white flying swords while the other was covered in black light. The three of them charged together.
The elder with the surname Fu and the others, unwilling to let them escape easily, unleashed their magical treasures and fought back fiercely.
Instantly, the cave was divided into two chaotic battles.
Shouts of anger and explosions filled the air amid various lights.
Seeing this, Han Li, feeling the timing was right, began to act without hesitation.
With a flash of yellow light, he silently employed the earth escape technique, heading towards the root of the Spirit Eye Tree.
With everyone in the cave busy fighting, no one noticed him playing the role of a fisherman reaping the benefits.
Unnoticed, Han Li reached the base of the Spirit Eye Tree, where a faint golden barrier blocked his path.
With a flash of light in his eyes, Han Li raised both hands, and ten fingers emitted green light, pressing silently against the barrier.
Golden and green lights intertwined, causing the barrier to tremble slightly.
Under normal circumstances, any disturbance in the gold-attribute barrier would have been immediately noticed by the cultivators guarding the tree. But with everyone engrossed in their battles, no one noticed the minor changes.
