Boom!

At that moment, blazing golden flames suddenly surged in the void.

Simultaneously, a gigantic Sword Qi, even more magnificent than before, shimmered like a meteor from beyond the heavens and approached the Black Robe Demon Monarch once again.

"Black Robe, now that you've arrived, why rush to leave?

Why don't you stay here and facilitate our plans?"

It was only then that Feichen Sword Monarch's voice echoed in the ears of the Black Robe Demon Monarch.

"This place has already been enveloped by an isolation formation.

Within ten breaths, you won't be able to rely on anyone to rescue you."

"Isolation formation? So that's why, Feichen Sword Monarch, how dare you betray us!"

The Black Robe Demon Monarch flew into a rage.

But it only elicited a chuckle from Feichen Sword Monarch hidden in the shadows.

"Betray? Black Robe, did you and Liu Dao You misunderstand something?

When did I ever agree to join forces with you or collaborate?"

"You..."

The Black Robe Demon Monarch wanted to say more, but the attacks from the two made it impossible for him to utter any more words.

Boom!

In the sky, a massive circular ring resembling a mushroom cloud rose abruptly.

The Black Robe Demon Monarch was within it, feeling death's breath closing in continuously.

A stinging pain surged throughout his body.

Truly, with Ji Haoyuan and Feichen Sword Monarch plotting against him with prepared minds, the Black Robe Demon Monarch had been driven into a decisively disadvantageous position.

Moreover, he had been heavily wounded by Ji Haoyuan earlier and had yet to recover.

Crack—

At that moment, a golden lightning suddenly descended from the sky.

The golden lightning carried an extremely potent Power of Evil Breaking.

Upon appearing, it transformed into a fierce golden dragon in mid-air, lunging viciously at the Black Robe Demon Monarch.

"Damn it!"

The Black Robe Demon Monarch tried to react, but he suddenly felt intense pain in his chest.

Looking down.

He saw that at the position of his heart, at some unknown time, a sword tip gleaming with a faint light had already pierced it.

His eyes widened instantly, and with difficulty, he uttered a few words.

"Feichen Sword Monarch, Heart Sword!"

Indeed, this sword was none other than Feichen Sword Monarch's signature technique, the Heart Sword.

Invisible and formless, silent and undetected.

Once unleashed, it invariably strikes the opponent's vital.

The only cost is that Feichen Sword Monarch, who wields the sword, must also endure thirty percent of the sword's damage.

It's a sword technique Divine Technique that harms both the enemy and the self.

But undeniably, this sword's prowess is remarkably powerful.

In merely one strike, it caused the spiritual pressure around Black Robe Demon Monarch to drop by fifty percent.

The most terrifying part was that, faced with the golden dragon formed by the Exorcism Divine Thunder, the Black Robe Demon Monarch had no time to resist and was immediately engulfed by the golden dragon.

"Ah!"

A scream from the Black Robe Demon Monarch echoed in the sky.

The next moment, a loud explosion sounded.

In the midst of the overwhelming thunderlight, an identical Nascent Soul that looked just like the Black Robe Demon Monarch fled in desperation.

Gone were its previous ferocity and arrogance.

All that remained was panic and unease.

For he suddenly found that the void ahead seemed as solid as an iron plate.

Even though he was in his Nascent Soul form, he couldn't achieve instant movement.

Schraa—

Just then, in mid-air, a silver Sword Pill, sharp as a blade and enveloped in threads of lightning, swiftly slashed toward the Nascent Soul of the Black Robe Demon Monarch.

"No!

I am the Third Elder of the Ten Thousand Demons Demon Sect, if you kill me here, aren't you afraid of my ancestor's retaliation?"

"Hah..."

However, what answered him was merely a disdainful sneer.

At this point.

Saying such things is meaningless.

If your ancestor truly cared about you, why didn't he leave you any life-saving tool?

Splurp!

With the passing of the silver Sword Pill, the Nascent Soul of the Black Robe Demon Monarch shattered like a broken porcelain piece fragment by fragment.

Yet, at that moment, a multitude of odd Forbidden Seals suddenly fell upon the shattering Nascent Soul of the Black Robe Demon Monarch.

In an instant, the Nascent Soul was bound into an unconscious cocoon.

It was eventually swept up by the silver Sword Pill and instantly vanished into thin air.

From then on, Ji Haoyuan and Feichen Sword Monarch didn't linger any further.

They collected the surrounding Array Flags.

Their figures quickly disappeared from the location.

A short time later.

A formidable aura surged from afar.

The next moment, a massive shadow entirely enveloped the heavens and the earth.

If Ji Haoyuan and Feichen Sword Monarch were present, they would immediately recognize the owner of the giant shadow hidden high in the sky, none other than the Peak Demon King they conspired to hunt, the Red Flood Dragon King.

At this moment, its massive dragon eyes gazed below.

After a while.

On its giant red dragon claws, fragments began to appear.

Based on the remaining aura on these fragments, the Red Flood Dragon King quickly realized that the owner of these pieces was none other than the Black Robe Demon Monarch who had recently left its presence.

This person unexpectedly encountered an ambush from others and perished.

This revelation immediately infused a trace of dread into its enormous dragon eyes.

It knew that the Black Robe Demon Monarch, although not as powerful as it was, was still regarded as a Peak True Monarch among humans.

Yet even such a being had fallen.

And it happened without much of its notice.

Who could be the killer?

The Red Flood Dragon King's eyes narrowed slightly, looking toward the direction of Four Symbols Pass, its inner vigilance multiplying.

It began considering whether to proceed with the full-fledged attack on Four Symbols Pass as previously planned with the Black Robe Demon Monarch.

Soon, it had an answer in its heart.

The previously cautious dragon eyes slowly revealed a fierce glint.

No matter what transpired here before.

Even if only for a test, tomorrow, it would launch an attack on Four Symbols Pass.

Only then could it truly understand the current state of Four Symbols Pass.

Whether it, the Red Flood Dragon King, truly had a chance to breach it.

Ultimately, the Red Flood Dragon King was indeed a Peak Demon King.

Though it sensed a change in circumstances, backing down or altering plans wasn't something easily achievable.

We shall see what tomorrow brings.

Thinking thus, its massive dragon body slowly began to fade.

The terrifying dragon presence lingering around also gradually vanished.

Meanwhile.

Having successfully slain the Black Robe Demon Monarch's physical form and captured its Nascent Soul, Ji Haoyuan and Feichen Sword Monarch, upon returning to Four Symbols Pass, promptly commenced a Soul Search on its Nascent Soul.
