The lion launched the marbles of darkness at Kai. Hellbringer cut through most of the marbles but many passed the sword and came in contact with Kai's body.

As soon as they touched his body, they exploded and left bruises against his skin. He gritted and stepped back a little.

The lion's cultivation was ahead of Kai by an entire realm, something Kai didn't think was possible.

But he wasn't about to give up. His wings shed some feathers and they floated beside him. They followed the trail of his sword as he slashed at the incoming marbles.

The feathers also started attacking the marbles, exploding them with contact. The lion was definitely enjoying this battle but it looked as though it was boring. It yawned and sat down and let the marbles attack Kai.

But Kai wasn't angry at the lion's behavior. If he was in the place of the lion, he would have done something similar.

After all, the strong always look down on the weak and the happened everywhere.

'Focus.' Kai thought as he suddenly stopped moving. His wings spread even more and the wind caught him.

The marbles slowed in front of him. It was as though time itself was slowing down for him. Watching the slow marbles, he easily dodged them.

To the others, it looked as though Kai was moving at hyper speed. His eyes never left the sight of the lion who stood up once again.

Its dark fur was being ruffled by the wind but it looked as though it was smiling. Its dark tail flicked back and forth as its tongue licked across his lips.

"Do you want to eat?" Kai asked with a smile of his own as he suddenly swung the sword in a vertical arc.

The lion didn't see anything but a moment later, blackish-red drops of blood dripped from the edge of Hellbringer.

The lion stared at its back as saw a deep slash running along with its fur. Kai on the other hand touched the blood with his fingers and close his eyes for a moment.

"Spiritual beast blood. I was thinking that you were a spirit but I was wrong." Kai said as he opened his eyes and cleaned the blood of Hellbringer.

The lion growled at Kai and the marbles suddenly retracted. They circled around the lion's body before they sunk in its skin.

Its fur started to thicken and darken. A dark layer of hair was now completely covering its body. Kai threw a feather against the lion's body to test the fur but the feather was destroyed as soon as it was an inch away from the fur.

"Corrosion property of the dark element. It even managed to affect the air surrounding its fur. Even without the advantage in its cultivation, this lion would have been a formidable opponent." Kai remarked as he folded his wings.

His eyes were still completely purple but without his wings, Kai looked like a normal teenager. The three girls were gritting their teeth as they stared at the battle.

Their cultivation was even lower than Kai's and they knew that there was no way they could help him. But as they were hopeless, a vial dropped in their hands.

[ I think you know what to do. ] Kai said to the three of them as they unscrewed their respective vials.

They pulled the contents within a minute and sat down to cultivate Kai's yang qi. He looked at them for a second as a small smile lit his face.

The smile didn't vanish as he stared at the lion. Kai knew that he couldn't defeat the lion alone but what if three cultivators at the peak of the imperial spirit realm tried to do it together.

There was a chance that they would be able to defeat the lion but the chance was slim. So while the girls were cultivating, Kai had no choice but to entertain the lion.

He knew that he had to save his power to deal the final blow but there was no way that he could defeat the lion if he hid his power.

"Soul void." Kai whispered as he appeared beside the lion.

He touched its head as the lion's eyes rolled back for fear second. But it recovered easily and Kai had to teleport back to avoid getting ripped to shreds.

Kai wanted to teleport away from the lion but his teleportation was blocked by the lion's aura. Looking back at the girls, Kai noticed that they were now at the 5th stage of the imperial spirit realm.

"Guess I will have to use my black flames." Kai sighed as his back flames covered Hellbringer.

The lion stared at the sword with wide eyes as though it was afraid of it. Its fur returned to its original form as the marbles appeared back.

They formed a shield in front of it as Kai swung the sword against the shield. The sword cut through it like it was nothing.

"Is that all you have got? Come on, I want more. Use more of your power, I want to kill you knowing that you were using your full power!" Kai cackled like a madman as he randomly swung his sword making the lion jump back to dodge it.

The girls broke through to the 8th stage and they had used Everlast drop of Kai's yang qi. But when Mia and Mariel heard Kai's words, they groaned.

"Why is he saying those words?" Risea asked in confusion as Kai laughed while swinging Hellbringer.

"We don't know the exact reason for it but we do know that he is turning into a complete S and a battle maniac." Mia replied as Risea gulped.

"But this our best and only chance at defeating that beast." Mariel added as the girls focused on the lion's movements, hoping to catch a weak spot.

"Now!" Mia shouted as she created an ice dragon while Mariel created a fire dragon. Risea didn't had a specialty but for some reason, she was feeling the wind around her more clearly than before.

She called out to it and a tornado started taking place. She directed the tornado towards Mariel's fire dragon and a fire tornado was created.

They launched their attacks at the lion as Kai's jumped back at the last moment. He made a tch noise before attacking.

He created a full-fledged eastern dragon from his back flames and launched it at the lion which was already preoccupied with the previous attacks.

It didn't notice the dragon till it was too late. The flames burned it alive alongside with the surroundings.

But it still launched a last attack before fading away. A giant ball the size of an elephant was launched towards Kai whose eyes had returned to normal.

His eyes widened as the marble advanced but it suddenly froze. Ice crept around the ball before it covered it entirely.

Kai already knew that this was Mia's eternal ice so he didn't waste any time in shattering the ball with his sword.

He then glanced at Mia, giving her a smile as her eyes slowly rolled back. Mariel and Risea managed to catch her as she fell unconscious.

"Her eternal ice and my black flames are probably the strongest elemental attacks that you will ever find. But it takes a great toll on our body, especially on her since she hadn't been using it for a long time. Usually overusing these powers would lead to exhaustion and unconsciousness but if you are not careful, you might die because of it." Kai explained to Risea as he appeared beside Mia.

"Let's wait here till Mia wakes up. This place is more dangerous than I thought. We should be careful." He added and started creating some protection barriers.

But they would vanish as soon as he would finish. This unsettled him even more but he didn't speak anything and sat down.

He could not cultivate since even a small amount of yin energy would be enough for him to break through to the next realm meaning that he would be thrown out of the mortal realm.

He just stared at Mia's unconscious face until she woke up. She offered him a smile that he returned before standing up.

"Now that Mia's awake, we should carefully advance further." He announced as Risea frowned.

"What if there are more dangerous things inside that palace? Shouldn't we retreat?" She asked as Kai shook his head.

"You can't notice it but the dark aura is still here and it is blocking my teleportation. We don't have any choice except moving forward." Kai replied and Risea dropped her head.

"Speaking of dark auras, why were you speaking those words earlier?" Mia asked as Kai suddenly froze.

"What words?" He asked in a slow voice as Mariel repeated them.

"I said that?!" He exclaimed before sighing.

"As you know, my black flames are the most powerful flames and are demonic in nature. So when I use them in pure demon mode, I kind of become a full-fledged demon alongside being a sadist." Kai said as the three girls stared at him.

"But that doesn't matter. Let's go and check that palace and leave this continent." Kai said as he stared.

He thought what new horror they would face there but for now, they had to reach the palace
