Chapter 63 Possessed!

Although the primordial cultivation technique of the Snow Leopard clan certainly could not compare in might to the one gifted to the Demon Lord by Ye Chen, it could be said to be an exceptional match for the Empress.

Whether in terms of primordial spiritual energy or the compatibility of their temperaments, it was nothing short of seamless.

Above all, the Empress was the Human Emperor reincarnated.

In her past life, the cultivation techniques she had perused numbered in the thousands, and she had practiced nearly a hundred of them.

Precisely because of this, mastering this technique was as easy as turning her hand over for the Empress. Her speed and depth of comprehension surpassed even those of the snow leopards themselves!

With the snow sprite crowning the firmament and treading upon the earth, a white dragon on her left and a giant elephant on her right!

This array alone was enough to make that little civet cat, Huang Sheng, tremble continuously with fright.

Unbelievable as it was even to her, the Demon Lord himself felt a trace of threat.

Seeing the Empress's strength progress by leaps and bounds in such a short span of time, the Demon Lord knew that from now on, he could not afford to let down his guard for even a single second!

"You're courting death! Absolute death!"

"I am a cultivation of the sixth-tier great demon! How could I possibly be intimidated by you, a mere third-tier great demon?"

"Being big, what use is that?!"

"After all, it is nothing more than putting up a front!"

As if trying to bolster her own courage, Huang Sheng bared her teeth, hissed continuously, and her entire body instantly bristled!

Feeling as though she had been deeply humiliated, the fire of rage in her heart burned ever brighter!

The next moment, four pillars of water surged around her, enclosing her within.

Seeming entirely unremarkable, the aura they radiated was profoundly shocking!

For this, unexpectedly, was the power of a formation!

Even more unbelievable was that Huang Sheng, in her beastly form, actually began to shape hand seals with her paws!

"This... this is not a spell or divine ability!"

"Could this be... a forbidden sect technique?!"

Noticing that the situation had turned bizarre, the Empress also raised her vigilance to the highest level.

To pit a third-tier great demon cultivation against a sixth-tier great demon might have looked like she held the upper hand, but in reality, only the Empress knew how grueling it truly was.

The most distinctive feature of a realm breakthrough was the exponential surge of spiritual energy within the body, a phenomenon especially pronounced when crossing major realms.

If this dragged out into a war of attrition, she was bound to lose without a doubt, long before that civet cat needed to resort to her true power!

She would simply be worn down until she died.

However, perhaps because the Empress's strength had shocked Huang Sheng beyond belief, or perhaps because she felt too insulted, she had failed to notice this vulnerability.

To the Empress's utter astonishment, this creature had actually unleashed such a bizarre formation!

"Little white bird! This formation cannot be broken by you alone! Let this Lord come to lend you a hand!"

"Hmph! So be it! I'll grant you this chance!"

"You're at death's door and you're still putting on airs, damn it! Wipe that arrogance off your face!"

"Empress Sister, Demon Lord Brother, we..."

Seeing this, Xiao Cui and the others were naturally terrified out of their wits by the terrifying spectacle.

The four pillars of water visibly connected the heavens and the earth, each trunk as massive as the trunk of a millennium-old tree, surrounded by howling gales that shredded the void itself!

Such formidable power was something neither of the two ninth-tier great demons, Qin Zhenlin and Nie Xiaojun, had displayed earlier!

"What airs?! Get lost to the side! Neither of us will be able to save you later!"

"All of you, clear out immediately! Run as far as you can! Did you hear me? Move it!"

With a roar, the Demon Lord thrust his massive hand into the void, firmly grasping the Demon-Feeding Spear.

In an instant, he appeared right beside the Empress.

"This thing is wrong. A formation this powerful is beyond what the two of us can withstand!"

"At this rate, our only option is to flee using an escape art!"

"I share the exact same thought. That beast has been possessed!"

"She has likely been taken over by a spirit demon! Her sect truly values her dearly!"

As the snow sprite and the dragon-elephant were instantly obliterated by the mere shockwaves of the unformed array, the Empress realized the gravity of the situation.

That civet cat was no longer herself; her body had been usurped by another entity!

Presumably, a powerful figure within her sect had bestowed this mighty protective formation upon her to ensure her safety.

In a life-or-death crisis, it would serve as a substitute to preserve her life.

"My cultivation technique is better suited for an escape art. Hua Zui and the others haven't gone far yet. I will execute the technique with you, and then we shall flee together!"

"If that is the case, we have no choice but to stake everything on this single gamble!"

The Empress's delicate face was as cold as frost, while her primordial spiritual energy was being drawn upon thread by thread.

The next instant, the snow sprite reappeared accompanied by the dragon-elephant, but this time she wielded the Dragon Emperor Sword, her momentum soaring several times higher than before!

A desperate gamble meant holding nothing back!

"Demon-Feeding! Evil across a thousand miles!"

The Demon Lord did the same.

In the sky, a dense multitude of strange, hideous demons, ghosts, monsters, and evil spirits materialized, each one vastly different yet uniformly grotesque!

Unlike before, every single one of them grasped a long spear!

For the Empress and the Demon Lord, harmonizing their techniques was not exactly effortless, but neither was it too difficult.

"How audacious of you all! How dare you slaughter several disciples of our Fu Shui Sect!"

"Today, I have set up this Co-Water Array, the ancient divine formation of the Chaos Water God. You shall pay the due price for your actions!"

Sure enough!

Huang Sheng's voice had completely changed, sounding as though she had a thick glob of phlegm stuck in her throat—truly repulsive!

"Stop flapping your gums, damn it! Ancient Chaos Water God? Nothing more than a defeated foe of this Lord!"

"Hmph, I certainly do not recall the Co-Water Array of that deity being so utterly pathetic!"

"Staring death in the face, yet you still dare to be so stubborn!"

"You are courting death!"

The offensive momentum instantly poured down from the heavens as if several chasms had been ripped open in the sky, every single cascading waterfall of water powerful enough to blast a gargantuan crater into the earth!

Simultaneously, the Empress and the Demon Lord launched their spells in unison, hurling their entire offensive straight toward the heart of the formation!

In the next instant, the two exchanged glances.

Amidst the colliding onslaught and the terrifying explosions of spiritual energy, the Demon Lord swept his black robe toward the Empress in mid-air. The two figures instantly dissolved into black mist and vanished without a trace!

"Trying to run! Hmph! Do you think you can escape?"

The civet cat at the center of the Co-Water Array witnessed the actions of the Empress and the Demon Lord with utmost clarity.

Yet despite this, at this very moment, the two of them had only one thought in mind: get the hell out of there!

If they didn't run now, they wouldn't have another chance!

Suddenly, a chill ran down the spines of both the Demon Lord and the Empress!

They jerked their heads upward to look! Within the fractured black hole in the sky, the face of a monstrous entity had actually emerged!

It opened its maw, gathering a terrifying sphere of water within its mouth, aiming squarely at the two of them!

"Damn it! We are truly doomed this time! I refuse to die such a stifling death!"

The Empress grit her teeth, her heart consumed by unwillingness!

She knew all too well that the monster was none other than the Chaos Water God!

And that Co-Water blast was something she could neither dodge nor withstand.

There was only one possible outcome: death!
