Before Qin Yiran's Spiritual Sword Intent could reach his head, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from Abyssal Devourer's body and simply swept it away, causing it to miss the target.
"Hmph!" Abyssal Devourer snorted coldly after devouring all the third step's sword lights. The previous playfulness on his face had disappeared and replaced with an incomparably cold expression. Yun Lintian and Qin Yiran gave him a huge surprise with their abnormal battle prowesses. Even though he hadn't underestimated them, they could still go beyond his estimation.
Qin Yiran's expression changed drastically. She had poured everything into this attack, but Abyssal Devourer could easily solve it. How was she going to fight further?
Yun Lintian used his profound energy to bring White Dragon Spear back. He stared at Abyssal Devourer coldly while his mind spun rapidly. This Abyssal Devourer was far stronger than he had imagined.
"You two are very good. To force me to this extent, you fully deserve to be my food." Abyssal Devourer licked his lips, staring at Yun Lintian and Qin Yiran as though they were heaven delicacies. Once he devoured both of them, he believed he might be able to break through into the Monarch Profound Realm.
"What to do?" Qin Yiran asked Yun Lintian. There was a trace of agitation in her voice. Even someone with a strong mentality like her became nervous facing Abyssal Devourer's might.
"You better run. I'll stall his time." Yun Lintian replied calmly. He told her to run because he didn't want to show his trump card in front of her. If he genuinely released all of his power, he should be able to fight Abyssal Devourer head-on.
Qin Yiran surprisingly calmed down hearing this. Her eyes once again turned resolute. "No. Let's kill him together."
Yun Lintian said nothing further and activated the fourth step of the formation. Since Qin Yiran refused to go away, Yun Lintian could only gamble with this move, Imperishable Flame.
The familiar scene repeated another time. Countless sword lights appeared in the dome and shot straight at Abyssal Devourer at lightning speed. However, if one looked closely, one could see a faint crimson flame within these sword lights.
Abyssal Devourer simply sent several Abyssal Energy balls to repel the incoming sword lights instead of devouring them as he did before. "What a boring move. Can you change to something else?"
As his voice fell, Abyssal Devourer felt something wrong. A sense of crisis gradually filled his heart. He hurriedly used his Spiritual Sense to check the surrounding situation and discovered several strange crimson flames within the sword lights. Furthermore, these flames had actually swallowed his Abyssal Energy ball… What the hell was that?
Yun Lintian's face was pale instantly. In order to catch Abyssal Devourer off guard, he had deliberately used his Spiritual Sense to conceal Imperishable Flame. This move had exhausted more than eighty percent of his power directly.
Abyssal Devourer perceived an extremely dangerous from these crimson flames. He didn't dare to crash directly but continued to throw out Abyssal Energy balls. Unfortunately, his action was nothing but merely wasting his energy.
Swoosh!
While Abyssal Devourer was busy avoiding the scarlet flames, Qin Yiran shot several sword intents at him. Though they could not harm him, Abyssal Devourer had to spend his energy further to repel them.
"Annoying!" Abyssal Devourer cursed and gathered a concentrated Abyssal Energy ball in his right hand before throwing it at Qin Yiran.
Watching the Abyssal Energy ball travel across the distance to her, Qin Yiran's body went stiff as she had no energy left to dodge it.
Yun Lintian swiftly controlled one of the sword lights with Imperishable Flame to intercept the Abyssal Energy ball and successfully negated it. At the same time, he commanded the remaining sword lights to attack Abyssal Devourer in all directions.
As much as he wanted to avoid, Abyssal Devourer couldn't break out of the formation zone and also didn't dare to devour the scarlet flames.
"Congratulations, you've successfully angered me." Abyssal Devourer's face turned hideous. Every joint and muscle on his body started to twitch strangely.
A pair of devil wings gradually grew out from his back as well as two sharp horns appeared on his head. His mouth had also turned into a scary big one with a long blood-red tongue poked out. Soon, his entire body completely changed into a strange creature similar to a gargoyle with all black.
"Die!"
His pair of blood-red eyes staring at Yun Lintian with terrible killing intent. He opened his mouth wide and began to devour everything in the area.
Yun Lintian's expression turned heavy. He didn't hesitate to activate the fifth step of the formation and injected more profound energy into Imperishable Flame. He chose to gamble with this move as he didn't believe Abyssal Devourer could deal with his Imperishable Flame.
"Arghh!"
It was as Yun Lintian expected. Abyssal Devourer suddenly screamed in pain a moment later as his body and mouth caught fire. The fire ruthlessly burned him and slowly took his vitality away bit by bit — no matter Abyssal Devourer tried to stop it, it was futile in the end.
Seeing this scene, Yun Lintian didn't relax his guard in the slightest. He quickly took out a handful of the best-grade Profound Stones from his interspatial ring and stabbed them into the formation's eyes.
With a bang, Yun Lintian activated the sixth and seventh steps of the formation at once. He was determined to thoroughly kill Abyssal Devourer with this move!
On the side, Qin Yiran had mustered every ounce of her profound energy and sent her last sword intent toward the enemy with all her might.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The power of Imperishable Flame had been far too horrific. It had shaved off all the protections on Abyssal Devourer's body, allowing Qin Yiran's and the formation's sword lights to pierce into him.
"Arghhhhh!!" Instantly, the entire space was filled with an incomparably painful scream, and Abyssal Devourer could be seen struggling under the overwhelming attacks. Black blood continued to spurt out from every wound on his body.. His current appearance was miserable beyond words.
