Chapter 1894: Chapter 1991: Out of Control

Standing before the Old Demon Saint, Bai Qingxue showed no mercy whatsoever and with a swift slash, beheaded the Old Demon Saint.

Immediately afterward, the sword qi swept through, annihilating the Old Demon Saint’s soul along with the head completely.

In this way, the Old Demon Saint, who had lived for countless years and spanned an era, ultimately died at Bai Qingxue’s hands, cleanly and swiftly.

The headless corpse of the Old Demon Saint dropped onto the ground, reverting to its demon beast form, and Bai Qingxue kicked the body out of the Pill Saint Palace.

When the Old Demon Saint’s headless body appeared outside, all the strong figures of the Demon Clan were utterly shocked, though some rejoiced inwardly, secretly praising this turn of events.

"Demon Saint!!!" The demon clan strongmen loyal to the Old Demon Saint cried out in sorrow, overwhelmed with grief and anger, itching to rush into the Pill Saint Palace for revenge.

"Leave!" Ultimately, these demon clan strongmen all retreated in haste, not even bothering to retrieve the Old Demon Saint’s corpse.

No joke, even the Old Demon Saint was killed—if they remained here longer, who can assure they wouldn’t be next?

Bai Qingxue didn’t chase those demon clan strongmen either, though she killed the Old Demon Saint, it took a great deal of energy since the Old Demon Saint was no mere nobody; his power was rather formidable and Bai Qingxue’s secret skill, though effectively remarkable, was not easy for her to deploy.

If it weren’t against the Old Demon Saint, Bai Qingxue wouldn’t have used such a powerful secret skill; she truly had no other choice, for behind her was Fang Lin’s pill refining chamber—were she and the Old Demon Saint to unleash their full might, Fang Lin in the chamber could easily be affected, thus she could only kill the Old Demon Saint in the quickest and most straightforward manner.

At this very moment inside the chamber, Fang Lin was experiencing the most tense time, as the Furnace of Heaven, Earth, Sun, and Moon continuously emitted dense golden light, with terrifying vibes spreading from the pill furnace.

Fang Lin’s face was deathly pale, forced to sit cross-legged nearby to restore vitality, his eyes fixed intently on the Furnace of Heaven, Earth, Sun, and Moon.

"The pills are ready, just waiting to come out!" Fang Lin breathed a sigh of relief, though unaware of the external situation, he knew the Pill Saint Palace was under tremendous pressure to protect him in successfully refining the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill; otherwise, the Palace itself wouldn’t risk relocation.

Fang Lin could sense his mother’s presence outside the chamber, experiencing an immensely potent demon qi earlier, only for it to vanish quickly thereafter, evidently handled by his mother.

Thinking of the Pill Saint Palace being invaded, Fang Lin grew anxious, hoping to finish refining the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill soon so that fewer people become involved.

Just then, at the distant Ancient Demon Ridge, a tremendous aura erupted explosively.

From within the Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree, a figure emerged from the boundless radiance, manifesting between heaven and earth.

Simultaneously, the faces of Fang Qingye and Hou Yi, two human supremes, changed drastically, deeply worried.

Meanwhile, Mo Shouhe and the black-robed man snickered coldly, aware that great things were about to unfold.

The initial Demon Saint, another ancient spirit incarnation nestled within the Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree, was finally surfacing to seize the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill.

The appearance of the initial Demon Saint was beyond Fang Qingye and Hou Yi’s expectations—they believed the initial Demon Saint couldn’t manifest before things started, underestimating him, with Mo Shouhe and another unknown ancient spirit incarnation posing the greatest threats instead.

But now, Fang Qingye and Hou Yi realized their thinking was overly simplistic; the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill held immense weight, compelling the initial Demon Saint to appear even at the risk of bodily dissipation—once the pill was snagged; it justified his disappearance.

"Stop him!" Fang Qingye shouted angrily at Hou Yi in the distance.

Hou Yi was startled; what does Fang Qingye mean? Does he intend to tackle two ancient spirit incarnations alone? Even if Fang Qingye was formidable, handling two simultaneously is overwhelmingly stressful, besides which one person can’t halt two ancient spirit incarnations.

However, Hou Yi found himself without options; if the initial Demon Saint truly captured the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill, their presence here would hold no meaning. As long as the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill didn’t fall into any ancient spirit incarnation’s hands, there remained a chance.

Biting his lip, Hou Yi abandoned the black-robed man and darted toward the Pill Saint Palace to intercept the initial Demon Saint.

The black-robed man snickered, previously stymied by Hou Yi, now, he aimed to prevent Hou Yi instead.

Fang Qingye divided himself, one body continued battling Mo Shouhe while another faced the black-robed man.

Fang Qingye understood the risks of confronting two ancient spirit incarnations at once, yet the pressing situation limited his options.

He only hoped for the swift release of the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill, then Hou Yi’s timely arrival at the Pill Saint Palace to secure the pill under the premise of obstructing the initial Demon Saint—if the pill landed in his or Hou Yi’s hands, the ancient spirit incarnations couldn’t seize it.

All hopes now rested solely on Hou Yi.

Fang Qingye’s heart ached; both his wife and son were at the Pill Saint Palace, and the initial Demon Saint’s emergence indisputably plunged them into a life-and-death crisis—a scenario Fang Qingye never wanted to face, if given a choice.

All he could do now was pray for Hou Yi’s success; otherwise, everything could spiral beyond control.

The initial Demon Saint arrived swiftly, his body surging with immensely powerful sacred tree energy, utilizing years of absorbed sacred tree power, albeit for limited time, forcing the urgent capture of the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill.

Now, whether Mo Shouhe and these other ancient spirit incarnations, or Fang Qingye and other human supremes, they were all cornered—only speed determined who obtained the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill first.

Roar!!!

Just as Hou Yi was about to reach the Pill Saint Palace, he encountered a ferocious demon beast soaring up from below, countless arms interlocking, with gray mist filling the skies.

Hou Yi’s expression soured, ignoring the beast’s harassment, stomping down hard.

The demon beast shrieked miserably, its body nearly deformed by Hou Yi’s fierce stomp, yet those bizarrely elongated arms slightly impeded Hou Yi.

"Damn!" Hou Yi growled furiously; such a critical moment was hindered by a demon beast—utterly deadly.

Distracted momentarily by Hou Yi, the initial Demon Saint had already stormed into the Pill Saint Palace; no one could block his advance now.

"It’s over!" The Old Palace Master turned pale, utterly despondent.
