"Writhe in damnation you mongrels! Scarlet Claw Curse!"
Waving his blood bone staff, the old Clan Lord chanted an unidentifiable incantation and the void surged with a terrifying energy feedback!
Two streams of blood light shot forth from the sockets of the skull.
As though it was alive, the skull opened its mouth and shot out a green streak of light.
The blood and green light fused into a drop of fresh blood!
When the drop of blood arrived above the old quasi-divine demonic beast, Senior Swan's head, it suddenly exploded and spread into a series of mysterious patterns. Descending slowly, it engulfed the old quasi-immortal swan.
*Buzz!* *Buzz!*
The blood patterns formed a blood-colored circle of light that caused smoke to form each time it made contact with the old quasi-immortal swan's body.
Eventually, it corroded the old quasi-immortal swan's shirt and a series of burn marks appeared on its fair skin beneath.
*Caw!*
The old quasi-immortal swan cried and its blood qi burst forth. Instantly, its body and flesh expanded while its bones changed structures as it transformed.
Right in front of everyone, it turned into a massive ferocious bird that was dozens of feet in width, ready to fly with its wings at any moment!
Resembling a divine beast, the majestic swan, the ferocious bird had a smudge of red on its head and its body was green. A thin, dense layer of flame burned on its body, emitting a scorching heat and its beak was red and a full ten feet long!
"Hmm?"
The Demon Crow Clan's Lord's expression changed as he murmured softly, "So, your true form is actually a pure-blooded ferocious bird!"
The old quasi-immortal swan soared into the skies and the flames on its body burned brightly, purging away the power of the blood curse. Rising into the clouds with its gigantic body, it looked down at the Sect Master on the ground with a murderous intent.
"Hahaha, you might have been a threat to me at your peak. But now, you're nothing but a beast at the end of your lifespan and is nothing to be feared!"
The Clan Lord sneered and leaped up. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared above the nine heavens into the clouds.
That was a height that even Martial Grandmasters could not reach!
Although Martial Masters could soar into the skies without the use of any external objects, the truth was that there was a limit to the height they could reach and it was merely about a hundred feet.
There was an incredibly strong wild power between the firmament and earth that restricted martial artists and all living beings immensely!
The higher martial artists flew, the greater the pressure they would have to endure.
With their Essence Spirits, Martial Grandmasters could greatly resist the restrictions on their bodies set by heaven and earth and could soar to heights a couple thousand feet high.
More than that, one would be in the clouds and their vision and hearing would suffer. At that place where even Martial Grandmasters could not reach, only Martial Grandmasters could fight there!
The great battle was invoked beneath Azure Myst Sect.
Demon Crow Clan's Lord and the old quasi-immortal swan clashed as well, producing shuddering power shock waves that attracted the attention of a few Martial Grandmasters nearby.
Those Martial Grandmasters came from Iridescent Clouds Palace, True Fire Sect, Southern Mountains Sect and Azure Frost Sect.
The armies of the four major sects were speeding towards Azure Myst Sect under the lead of their Martial Grandmaster experts.
"Hmm?"
"That old beast has sure hidden herself well. To think that she's a ferocious beast of the ancient era! It's a Divine Swan!"
She was a pure-blooded ferocious beast that did not need to consume food and specialized in the Dao of fire.
Legend has it that the Divine Swan carried the traces of the primordial bloodline of the phoenix race and was extremely ferocious!
While the Divine Swan looked extremely similar to Demonic Beast's of a similar nature, their difference was that their head was a full feet wide!
"It's lucky that the Demon Crow Clan's Lord is around. Otherwise, the four of us might have been destroyed by that old beast instead!"
"Yes, the Divine Swan is old now. Furthermore, I heard that the Demon Crow Clan's Lord belongs to one of the nine primordial races. Even if the Divine Swan was at its peak, it might not be a match for this guy."
"Let's go! Let's head over there first to help the Demon Crow Clan's Lord kill that old beast as soon as possible!"
After conversing, the four Martial Grandmasters soared into the skies and vanished in the blink of an eye.
It wouldn't be long before the armies of the other four major sects arrived at Azure Myst Sect!
With the fight between the Martial Grandmasters taking place, Martial Grandmasters from both factions soared into the skies one after another to a height of a few thousand feet tall before breaking out into a battle.
At that height, the fight between the Martial Grandmasters would not affect the Martial Masters and Martial Knight martial artists.
Every single attack of a Nascent Soul possessed the might of heaven and earth and it was something that Martial Masters couldn't defend against!
As for Martial Masters, they left the ground and flew a hundred feet into the skies before they started fighting. Countless spirit arts and flying swords streaked and there were even Golden Core phenomenons!
On the ground, Martial Knight martial artists collided intensely like two massive torrents!
Demon Crow Clan did not have the advantage in numbers when it came to Martial Grandmasters and Martial Masters.
However, they had multiple times the number of Martial Knight martial artists of Azure Myst Sect!
The moment the fight began, Azure Myst Sect showed signs of defeat on the Martial Knight battlefield.
In recent years, most of Azure Myst Sect's paragons of the Martial Knight realm died in the battles, ambushes and schemes. The rest, like the old Sect Master, the High Elders and many others, obtained their own opportunities and left this world already.
The remaining Martial Knight martial artists in the sect had no leader and the strongest among them was only at five meridian Martial Knight with a few others at four.
As for the nine thousand odd Martial Knight martial artists on Demon Crow Clan's side, there were two of them at six meridian Martial Knight and dozens at five!
In the underworld of this scorched world, especially at the core regions where battles were plenty, six meridian Martial Knight martial artists were common sight and only seven meridian Martial Knight martial artists could protect themselves.
However, in the surface regions, the environment was not as favorable as the underworld and it was almost the limit for any martial artist to unlock six spirit meridians!
*Bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!*
The moment the battle began, Azure Myst Sect Martial Knight martial artists were already showing signs of defeat.
There was nothing to compensate for the difference in numbers and strength!
The most eye-catching martial artist on the side of Azure Myst Sect was an outstanding young girl.
This outstanding young girl was not old and her features were intricate with a straight nose bridge. Her eyes shimmered like diamonds but her hair was withered, yellowish-pale and messy without any luster.
This young girl was none other than the same mysterious girl that was beside the sect master during the meeting! She was called Nora Zell.
After training for less than two years, she was already at the peak of Martial Knight realm and had already unlocked her most treasured secret, an ancient bloodline!
It was also because of Nora Zell's presence that the Azure Myst Sect Martial Knight martial artists were not instantly overwhelmed and defeated.
Controlling her sword with one hand, she wielded a saber in the other and charged into the Demon Crow Clan crowd, cleaving everything she could left and right.
Initially, back when Nora Zell did not have any spirit qi in her body, she was already able to lift the Golden-Colored Silk Armor, which weighed a ton. It could be said that she had an innate godly strength.
Now that she had entered the path of the martial world, her strength had grown even more and she was like a tiger who had obtained wings!
Although she was only at the ranks of the Martial Knight realm, she could kill almost any Martial Knight realm warriors and even face-off against early stage Martial Masters!
Swinging her saber widely, Nora Zell was completely following Aiden's previous style without any complicated movements.
She was overwhelming everything with brute force!
"Pfft!"
Unable to defend against her, a four meridian Martial Knight martial artist was cut into two.
Gradually, the level five Martial Knight martial artists of the Demon Crow Clan surrounding Nora Zell increased and even two level six Martial Knight opponents had targeted her!
"Let's join forces and kill that girl first!"
A level six Martial Knight martial artist yelled.
*Bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!*
*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* *Swoosh!*
At least 10 five meridian Martial Knight martial artists attacked Nora Zell at the same time.
Two level six Martial Knight martial artists released their spirit arts and flying swords as well, unleashing a flurry of attacks at Nora Zell.
Instantly, Nora Zell descended into danger!
She had already charged into the depths of the Demon Crow Clan faction a long time ago and was far away from the Azure Myst Sect faction. Right now, she was like a helpless leaf floating in a raging sea.
