……

"Who!" Although this Upper Realm cultivator can’t use spiritual energy, her spiritual sense is exceptionally keen. At that moment, she can sense that someone is next to her. She starts, almost deploying a spiritual energy barrier by reflex. But as soon as she operates her spiritual energy, she feels the sky instantly darken. She promptly stops and stares at the empty space beside her with extreme vigilance.

This time, someone throws an object, and Su Tingyun easily dodges the device by slightly shifting her body. However, as soon as the object hits the ground, it leaves a puddle of water, and her footprints are exposed as she stands in the center.

Although she has successfully ascended to the higher realm, the core within the shell is still a novice in the world of cultivation. She hasn’t seen much of the world, let alone getting in contact with these high-level magical treasures, that would be an even rarer occurrence. In other words, she lacks general knowledge.

Su Tingyun lightly lifts her foot to a point and floats in the air. With a single thought, she tries to get rid of the object on the ground. However, her spiritual energy surges forth like a sea and instantly washes away the small puddle, leaving no trace. One of the cultivators in the crowd, who’s at the Tribulation Transcendent stage, suddenly spews out a mouthful of blood, indicating that he’s been severely injured.

This feeling…

It’s too cool! The injured Tribulation Transcendent cultivator is none other than Duan Potian from the Luminous Moon Sect, whom she had encountered on the Kunlun Divine Tree back then. Those guys were so overbearing at the time, but now she’s finally returned the favor in one breath. However, Su Tingyun is extremely wary of the black-clothed person in front of Duan Potian, so she doesn’t act overboard.

"In this life, what I hate the most is when someone else plays tricks in front of me, dressing up as a god and playing the devil." The Demon Venerable sneers and swings his long sword directly towards Su Tingyun's direction.

Demon Venerable!

If it weren't for Bai Su desperately protecting her back then, she would have died in the hands of the Demon Venerable. Su Tingyun immediately unsheathes her sword without hesitation and meets the Demon Venerable head-on. Her Springwater Sword comes out, and with a single sword strike, the sword intent triggers the Righteousness of Heaven and Earth. It’s like a colorful halo cast by the sunlight, which collides with the blade of the long knife.

In an instant, the blade of the long knife shatters to pieces. And the remnant soul acting as the device spirit, which the Demon Venerable had gathered together through a similar method to raising Gu, is crushed by a single sword strike. After letting out a few sighs, it returns to the world and fades away like it never existed.

Those soul remnants are finally released.

The Demon Venerable holding the knife stumbles back a few steps. His face, which was already paler than normal people, becomes even more ghostly. It seems that he has suffered a serious internal injury. Su Tingyun's Springwater Sword lets out a long cry. She is about to get rid of the Demon Venerable and take her revenge, but at that moment, the Nightmare Tapir Phoenix Feather Frame suddenly flies up into the sky. At the same time, the Demon Venerable's figure disappears from its spot. The curtain of the carriage is lifted, revealing the anxious face of Feng Ling. At this time, the Phoenix Feather Frame rushes forward, but it still hasn’t escaped the range of Su Tingyun's divine sense.

She scolds lightly, "If you want to run, it won’t be that easy!"

Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river*, the wheel of fortune turns. He had once hunted her and Bai Su, but now the roles have reversed.

(Idiom from the Tang Dynasty about a military campaign winning on the eastern side of the Yellow River, then got defeated on the western side of the same river)

Unfortunately, even though Su Tingyun has ascended, she hasn’t learned a lot of spells– "Spring Wind and Rain", "Golden Thunder", and "Haoran Zhenqi". They’re too far this time and Haoran Zhenqi is a slow attack, which wouldn’t be conducive in a pursuit to kill. She could only rely on lightning bolts.

With a loud rumble, a thunderbolt pierces the sky overhead, and lands heavily on the Nightmare Tapir Phoenix Feather Frame.
