Three days passed...
Luo Chen continuously absorbed one thousand Great Demon Slave Pills, and his cultivation level continued to accumulate.
The process of advancing from the late stage of the Innate Realm to the early stage of the Qi Condensation Realm is not simple; it is much more difficult than advancing from the mid-stage of the Innate Realm to the late stage.
Therefore, although Luo Chen had vaguely touched the threshold of the Qi Condensation Realm, he was always just one step short and could not cross it.
Time is like a thief, slipping away silently!
Two more days passed quickly...
Luo Chen had entered a state of selflessness. He had already stepped halfway into the Qi Condensation Realm. One step further and he would reach the Qi Condensation Realm; one step back and he would fall back to the late stage of the Innate Realm.
So at this moment, Luo Chen was completely trapped! He couldn't stop! He was completely cut off from everything outside!
Twenty days have passed, and Luo Chen is completely unaware of everything that has happened in the outside world.
Of course, the outside world has no idea what happened to him.
On Wudang Mountain, in the square in front of the main hall, Zhou Zhiruo, Zhao Min, Jingxiang and others had been waiting here for ten days. All they knew was that Luo Chen had entered the Demon King's space, so they could only wait here in vain.
"Sisters, according to the guidance of the Sacred Flame Token, Sister Zhao should be here!" Suddenly, a fiery female voice came from the main road in front of the mountain. A graceful figure in bright red clothes appeared on the main road in front of the mountain gate like a ball of flame. It was none other than the Fire Dance Saintess!
Chapter Sixty-One: That sound pierced my heart!
Following the appearance of the Fire Dance Saintess, seven other Saintess appeared in succession: the Golden Charm Saintess, the Wood Spirit Saintess, the Water Gentle Saintess, the Earth Pure Saintess, the Wind Yao Saintess, the Thunderstorm Saintess, and the Frost Saintess!
Next came the vast Persian Ming Cult's servant girl corps, totaling a thousand people, all around twenty years old, a loyal force that obeyed the holy maidens!
Behind them were the Persian Ming Cult followers, who were also the vanguard force that came with the eight holy maidens.
Because the eight holy maidens were worried that the holy maiden Zhao would be corrupted beyond saving by that evil power, they led a group of people to come to her rescue ahead of time at twice the speed.
Meanwhile, the leader of the Persian Ming Cult and his main followers lagged behind.
"You lowly people from the Central Plains, quickly hand over our Holy Maiden Xiao Zhao!"
The Fire Dance Saintess's figure was as fiery and alluring as she danced gracefully, her voice proud and sharp. Her fiery folding fan suddenly opened, as if she were about to fight at the slightest provocation.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo and the others immediately realized that these people were from the Persian Ming Cult.
Despite this, Zhou Zhiruo was not intimidated. Her beautiful eyes suddenly turned cold as she looked at the Fire Dance Saintess and said coldly, "How dare you! Xiao Zhao has become my master's demon slave! What are you! How dare you ask my master for her?"
"What! A demonic slave? So that evil power came from your so-called master! Now, as the Holy Maiden of Fire Dance, I command you to hand over your so-called master immediately, I want to refine her with fire!"
Upon hearing this, the Fire Dance Saintess was filled with arrogance. With a light flick of her Fire Dance Folding Fan, a fan-shaped burst of internal energy shot out, heading straight for Zhou Zhiruo.
Zhou Zhiruo drew her sword to meet it, the long sword clattering as it was drawn from its sheath, the tip striking the fan-shaped internal force.
when!
With a crisp sound, Zhou Zhiruo's longsword broke instantly. Then, a fan-shaped internal force, having absorbed some of the force, slammed into Zhou Zhiruo, knocking her directly to the ground.
"Hmph! You dare to act presumptuously in front of me, the Holy Maiden of Fire Dance, with your mere late-stage Innate Realm cultivation! Hand over your master, or you will all die!"
With a gentle flick of her folding fan, the Fire Dance Saintess's robes fluttered!
The eight Holy Maidens came from the Ming Cult headquarters. Each of them had cultivated their own unique internal energy cultivation methods since childhood, so their cultivation had all reached the early stage of Qi Condensation Realm. They could be called heroines among women!
Upon seeing Zhou Zhiruo defeated in one blow, Zhao Min, Jingxiang, and Ding Minjun all changed their expressions drastically and immediately went over to help Zhou Zhiruo check her injuries.
*Pfft!* Zhou Zhiruo felt a surge of blood in her chest and suddenly spat out several mouthfuls of blood.
Her face was pale, and she struggled to look up at the Fire Dance Saintess and the other seven Saintess who had not yet made a move. She sneered, "Ignorant people! You have no idea what kind of demon king you have offended!"
"Demonic Puppet Dance Immortal Formation, activate!"
Zhou Zhiruo knew that she and her companions were no match for these holy maidens, but Luo Chen had already given her the power to mobilize the demon puppet army.
Therefore, at this moment, Zhou Zhiruo activated the Demon Puppet Dance Immortal Formation. She believed that as long as she held out until Luo Chen appeared, all the holy maidens in front of her would become Luo Chen's demon slaves!
At that time, although her cultivation level is not as high as these holy maidens, her status as the First Demon Consort will be high enough to deal with these little brats one by one...
Even those with the cultivation level of the early stage of Qi Condensation Realm are powerless against the Demon Puppet Dance Immortal Array!
When the imposing aura of the Demon Puppet Dance Immortal Array appeared, the eight Holy Maidens immediately felt the power of this array.
But there was no panic on their faces; instead, they showed a faint disdain.
"Servant's Heavenly Melody Array, activate!"
With a proud shout from the Fire Dance Saintess, a group of a thousand twenty-year-old maidservants, each holding a different musical instrument, played a heavenly melody!
hum!
The overwhelming aura and pressure also burst forth, and what shocked Zhou Zhiruo, Zhao Min and the other women was that this Servant's Heavenly Melody Array could actually unleash the power of the early stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.
It was only slightly less powerful than the Thousand-Person Dance of the Demon Puppet Dance Immortal Array!
Zhou Zhiruo and the others were protected in the middle by a group of dancing fairies, while the rest of the dancing fairies fought against the servant girl group.
For a time, the two formations reached a stalemate.
"Sisters, it seems these lowly people from the Central Plains have some tricks up their sleeves. Today, let's show these bumpkins the power of our Persian Ming Cult!"
"The Saintess Scattering Flowers Formation! Activate!"
The eight holy maidens each emitted a different colored radiance, representing the eight elements: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, and ice!
As the eight holy maidens began to dance, petals of flowers began to float up in front of them. Upon closer inspection, these petals were of different colors: some were gold, some were wood, some were water, and some were sparks...
This power is comparable to that of a mid-stage Qi Condensation Realm cultivator!
In that instant, the Demon Puppet Dance Immortal Formation immediately showed signs of weakness!
One after another, the graceful figures of dancing fairies vanished into nothingness, while the corresponding demonic puppets immediately fell into a coma.
Time passed second by second, and more and more demonic puppets fell into a coma!
Soon, an hour passed, and only a little over a hundred life-destroying puppets remained dancing. These dancing fairies surrounded Zhou Zhiruo and the other three women, protecting them.
"Hmph! These lowly people from the Central Plains, once we capture them, we'll make them taste the most terrifying tortures of our Persian Ming Cult!"
The Fire Dance Saintess's eyes revealed a look of disdain.
The four women watched as Wu Xian's figure continued to disappear, their hearts sinking. Could it be that their master would never come to save them?
Perhaps it was a telepathic connection!
Inside the Demon King's Space, Luo Chen, who had been working non-stop for more than twenty days, suddenly let out a joyful roar!
This sound emanated directly from the Demon King's space, resounding throughout the entire Wudang Mountain! It reached everyone's ears! This sound shook the very core of their hearts!
Chapter Sixty-Two: Kneel There!
Within the Demon King's Space, Luo Chen's cultivation level continued to accumulate. Over the past twenty days, he had lost count of how many Great Demon Slave Pills he had consumed and how much sweat and toil he had put in!
At this moment, the vast gaseous true energy within his body had reached a critical point!
Suddenly, the gaseous true energy rapidly condensed, and the dense true energy that had been stagnant for a long time condensed into liquid true energy!
At this moment, the true energy flowed smoothly like water, surging wildly and bursting forth!
The overwhelming aura of the Qi Condensation Realm cultivator was released, sending Xiao Zhao flying!
"Is this the power of the Qi Condensation Realm?"
Luo Chen clenched his fists, feeling the formidable strength of the Qi Condensation Realm. It was completely different from the early stage of the Qi Condensation Realm he had felt when he received the Demon King's Descent Card!
That was borrowed, but now it's completely mine!
After glancing at the unconscious Xiao Zhao, Luo Chen decided to leave her for the time being. Then, with a thought, he saw the situation outside the Demon King's space!
In that instant, Luo Chen was filled with rage!
Only I can bully my demon slave!
……
In front of the Wudang Hall's plaza, the eight holy maidens all changed color upon hearing that heart-shaking roar. Such a roar truly demonstrated terrifying internal strength!
Upon hearing this roar, Zhou Zhiruo and the other three women simultaneously revealed expressions of joy and delight! They recognized the voice as that of their master, Luo Chen!
"It's the master!"
Zhou Zhiruo cried out excitedly, then looked at the eight holy maidens and said gloatingly, "You're finished! Master is here. Master will show you what it means to be utterly despondent!"
"Hmph! What kind of damn master are you! You should think of yourselves first!"
The Fire Dance Saintess snorted disdainfully. In their eyes, only Zhang Sanfeng's strength was worth mentioning in the Central Plains; everyone else was just an ant!
Moreover, even if it were Zhang Sanfeng, the eight holy maidens could trap him using the Holy Maidens Scattering Flowers Formation!
As for this so-called Demon King Luo Chen, they had never even heard of him! Naturally, they wouldn't take Luo Chen seriously.
After saying this, the eight holy maidens slowly approached Zhou Zhiruo and her three companions. The number of dancing immortals protecting Zhou Zhiruo and her companions had dwindled to less than thirty.
With the Demon Puppet Dance Immortal Formation broken, Zhou Zhiruo and the others will become the Holy Maiden's prisoners.
Just then, a figure appeared out of thin air, standing beside Zhou Zhiruo and the other three women.
"You've done a great job! You haven't embarrassed me like this demon king. This is a reward for you!"
Luo Chen flipped his hand, and four Demon Slave Candies appeared.
Upon seeing this, the four women immediately perked up and eagerly ate one each, overjoyed.
"Hmph! He's just a piece of trash at the early stage of Qi Condensation! Dressed like a shaman, what kind of tricks is he putting on!"
The Fire Dance Saintess saw through Luo Chen's current cultivation level at a glance. She gave a cold shout and then pointed at Luo Chen with her slender hand. All the flying flowers in the air shot towards Luo Chen.
With the Demon King's Beginner Cloak, Luo Chen can withstand 60% of the damage from a Qi Condensation Realm Level 2 expert.
Even when facing a powerful figure like Zhang Sanfeng, he could barely manage to cope.
However, facing the Saintess Scattering Flowers Formation, Luo Chen would absolutely not be able to withstand it with just the Demon King's Elementary Cloak!
Because the Saintess Scattering Flowers Formation is, after all, a formation, the collective attack of these flying flowers is far more damaging than the attack caused by Zhang Sanfeng fighting alone!
"Master, be careful! The formations of these Ming Cult Saintesses are comparable to attacks from the second level of the Qi Condensation Realm. You must be careful!"
"Master, get out of the way!"
……
Zhou Zhiruo and the other three women exclaimed in surprise.
"Get out of the way? How can you expect to dodge the Saintess Scattering Flowers Formation that the eight Saintesses have jointly set up? Don't resist anymore, die!"
The Fire Dance Saintess gave a cold shout, looking at Luo Chen surrounded by flying petals, as if she could already see Luo Chen's miserable end of being cut into millions of pieces of flesh in the next moment.
Just when everyone thought Luo Chen was doomed, he smiled!
His smile was full of disdain and brimming with evil thoughts; that faint curve at the corner of his mouth was the signature mark of the Demon King!
As expected, countless flying petals crashed into Luo Chen's body at the same time. But the next moment, the eight holy maidens widened their eyes and opened their mouths wide in surprise. Their mouths were wide enough to fit a carrot!
"What! This is absolutely impossible!"
"He clearly only has the strength of the early stage of Qi Condensation Realm, so why is the Saintess Scattering Flowers Formation ineffective against him?"
"It must be a hallucination caused by my continuous travel these past few days! No one can survive the Saintess's Flower Scattering Formation!"
……
The eight holy maidens were shocked and could not believe that what was happening before their eyes was real!
Luo Chen didn't waste words with the eight of them. Just as Fei Hua was about to attack Luo Chen, he used the Invincible Card Against Women!
Within thirty seconds, Luo Chen is absolutely invincible to any female creature!
This Saintess Scattering Flowers Formation was set up jointly by the eight Saintesses, so it was naturally useless against Luo Chen!
Luo Chen appeared beside the Fire Dance Saintess in a flash, a wicked smile playing on his lips, and immediately reached out to grab her fiery, alluring face.
"You dare! You're asking for death!"
Seeing that Luo Chen was about to touch her face, the Fire Dance Saintess immediately used her early Qi Condensation Realm cultivation to strike Luo Chen's chest with all her might using her Fire Dance Folding Fan.
Clearly, with this attack, the Fire Dance Saintess intended to kill Luo Chen!
Click!
With this strike, the Fire Dance Saintess successfully pierced Luo Chen's heart!
