The scarlet aura continuously surged out from the black box, clinging to the Seventh Elder's body and enveloping him, causing his body to swell.
The aura that spread out contaminated the half-demons, and those who were normal just moments ago went berserk instantly. Before the other half-demons could save him, he exploded and died.
Hei Lie urgently shouted:
"Retreat! Get out! Quickly leave!"
Watching his fellow beings being corroded by the scarlet aura, Hei Lie felt his heart bleeding.
Damn humans!
The battery's attack continued, with bolts of thunderforce striking the Seventh Elder, but all were absorbed by the scarlet aura.
The thunderforce strikes became more intense, filling the entire sky of the Great Wildlands with thunderclouds. Qingyuan Mountain shone as bright as the midday sun, and the power of the battery's thunderforce even stirred the heavens and earth.
The cultivators supported each other, resisting the might of the thunderforce with all their strength.
As the scarlet aura grew stronger, the battery increased its output, sending lightning up Qingyuan Mountain and into the sky, finally transforming into thunderforce that fell down.
Even at the edge of the Great Wildlands, one could sense the terrifying power of the thunderforce.
This horrifying scene drew the attention of many cultivators, who stood at the edge of the Great Wildlands, watching from afar.
"I wonder which senior is battling, it's terrifying..."
"This aura, it must be a Divine Transformation senior battling. If only we could witness it up close."
"Up close? Are you looking to die?"
...
With each strike, the scarlet aura diminished slightly, yet the black box continued to spew out scarlet aura relentlessly, and the speed of the strikes couldn't keep up with the generation of the scarlet aura.
As the scarlet aura intensified, the Seventh Elder's mind became increasingly unclear. His eyes turned scarlet as he looked at the spinning battery and suddenly let out a roar.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
The inhuman roar caused the weaker half-demons present to die instantly. Then, the scarlet aura converged into a terrifying torrent, directly breaking through the battery's disc.
The disc stopped spinning and fell from the mountaintop.
The dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and everything returned to calm.
"Hehehehe, hahahaha!"
The Seventh Elder laughed wildly in mid-air, finally getting rid of that annoying thing.
"Master..."
Luo Qingyi held Bai Ling, who looked at the Seventh Elder's frenzied appearance and slowly closed her eyes.
The little junior sister climbed up, covered in dust, looking at the mess everywhere, then at the scarlet blood aura in the sky, swallowing hard.
"Now, it's your turn!"
The Seventh Elder turned his head, staring at Luo Qingyi below.
He was going to kill this person now, and it would be perfect to take the bones!
The sect masters on Qingyuan Mountain were in despair.
Even the Great Emperor Zhetian was no match, so they wouldn't survive today.
Witnessing the elder of the Dao Xuan Sect, the head of the righteous Alliance, go mad, the Seventh Elder had no reason to spare them.
But dying at the hands of a cultivator of this level could be considered an honor.
In the sky, Tian Can clicked his tongue repeatedly, not expecting the demonized Seventh Elder to be so terrifying. That was a magical artifact that could stir the heavens and earth, at least a spiritual artifact, possibly even an immortal artifact, yet it was destroyed by the Seventh Elder.
It seemed that everyone here would die today... Wait, an immortal artifact?
Tian Can suddenly realized a problem, which was that immortal artifacts had owners, but so far, the owner of the immortal artifact hadn't appeared!
...
"Qingyi, tell Senior Zhetian that if he's willing to take action, I'm willing to offer my Mystic Blood!"
Bai Ling could die, but Luo Qingyi, her master's flesh and blood, absolutely couldn't die here.
However, before Luo Qingyi and Heyu could contact each other, the sky that had just calmed down suddenly stirred again.
"What is that!"
A red dot appeared in the sky, and almost instantly, it pierced through the sky and fell down.
Tian Can's hair stood on end, using all his strength to finally avoid the red dot. Looking back, he realized it was a light beam descending from the sky!
The appearance of the light beam didn't cause any anomalies, just like an ordinary red glow.
However, the red glow fell directly on the Seventh Elder's head, enveloping him.
"Ahhh!"
The Seventh Elder, wrapped in the blood-colored aura, fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string.
The red glow didn't weaken, shining directly on the Seventh Elder, causing the scarlet aura around him to ignite instantly.
Scarlet flames continuously erupted, and the Seventh Elder tried to escape, but no matter where he tried to flee, the red glow followed relentlessly.
They watched as the Seventh Elder, who seemed capable of tearing the firmament just moments ago, writhed on the ground like an insect, eventually being burned alive.
Where the red glow passed, everything was desolate, and the ground was scarred.
Then, the red glow disappeared instantly, as if nothing had happened.
From the appearance of the red glow to the tragic death of the Seventh Elder, it was only a matter of a few breaths. A half-step Divine Transformation powerhouse died here like an insect without any resistance.
Not even a corpse was left behind.
Everyone present, whether half-demon or human, dared not make a sound, or were too scared to make a sound.
In the sky, Tian Can's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
When was the last time he felt this close to death?
Although the red glow wasn't as grand as the thunderforce, its terrifying energy was unimaginable.
If he were to be hit by that red glow, he probably wouldn't last a single breath.
Right, what did the Sect Master want me to do? To snatch Luo Qingyi back, and kill anyone who obstructs?
Thinking of that terrifying power, Tian Can couldn't help but curse.
Kill the Great Emperor Zhetian? Seriously?
Tian Can was filled with lingering fear, finally understanding why that senior dared to call himself the Great Emperor Zhetian.
At least in front of people like them, calling himself Zhetian wasn't wrong at all.
Meanwhile, outside the glass case, Heyu closed the laser pointer.
"Hiss... such power?"
Looking at the terrifying marks on the ground inside the glass case, Heyu couldn't help but marvel.
He had waited patiently for the Seventh Elder to fly into the sky, far away from Luo Qingyi and the others, before taking action, to avoid harming Luo Qingyi.
Compared to the battery's wide-range electric strikes, the laser pointer was clearly more precise.
However, although precise, it was relative. If Luo Qingyi was too close, she would still be harmed.
It seemed he needed to pay more attention to finding things with less power in the future.
"Are you okay?"
After putting away the laser pointer, Heyu asked Luo Qingyi.
