The figure was none other than Erya!
Erya stared indifferently at Ye Guan and asked, “Your great Aunt Erya is right here; why would you call for backup?”
Ye Guan smiled slightly and said, “I was planning to call you.”
Erya licked her candied hawthorn and asked, “Really?”
“Of course. With you here, who can harm me? Who?” Ye Guan asked, looking around with a domineering light in his eyes.
However, Erya looked unimpressed as she replied, “Don't bother flattering me, as I don’t fall for that. But... you’re right.”
With that, she turned to face Shen Yu.
Shen Yu was staring at Erya with a solemn look; the little girl was giving off an aura that made him feel threatened.
“C'mere, let me beat you to death!” Erya exclaimed and vanished into a ray of light that flew toward Shen Yu.
Shen Yu responded by swinging his fist; he had decided to confront her!
Boom!
A deafening explosion echoed as Shen Yu was blasted away
The supreme elites of the God Clan revealed grim looks at the sight. Shen Yu had the same expression as them when he finally came to a halt.
"Your strength..." Shen Yu stared at Erya and said, “It's extraordinary.”
“Really?” Erya asked nonchalantly.
Shen Yu was puzzled as he asked, “How come I've never heard of you?”
Logically speaking, it was weird that Shen Yu had never heard of such a powerful demonic beast as powerful as Erya.
Instead of replying, Erya took a step forward. Then, she vanished, leaving behind an afterimage in mid-air.
Shen Yu’s eyes narrowed at the sight, but before he could react...
Boom!
A chunk of spacetime caved in before him, and Shen Yu was sent flying away like a kite with its string cut.
Even Ye Guan was surprised by the sight. Erya’s strength is truly mysterious. Why is it that she's getting stronger the stronger her opponent is?
The God Clan's supreme elites were stupefied. They knew that an evil beast was accompanying Ye Guan, and they assumed that the evil beast was only as strong as a Divine Dao Realm cultivator with seventy percent divinity, but... it turned out that they were mistaken—it wasn't just a simple mistake; they had grossly underestimated her!
Madam Chu's expression grew serious as she stared at Erya from the shadows.
“What a powerful demonic beast...”
The white-robed young man nodded slightly and said, “Her strength… it really is terrifying.”
Madam Chu cast a deep, contemplative look at Ye Guan before saying, “He's truly not simple. The God Clan is in a pinch now.”
Meanwhile, Shen Yu was once again blown away by Erya's knuckle sandwich. He looked down at himself and saw cracks in his fleshly body. The sight made his expression grow even more serious than ever. He had truly underestimated the evil beast's strength.
Once bitten, twice shy, Shen Yu dared not to be careless anymore as he clenched his right hand, creating a black vortex.
An infinite expanse of stars and star fields was beyond the black vortex, and a terrifying aura locked onto Erya.
However, Erya remained unperturbed as she casually licked her candied hawthorn.
Erya and Shen Yu were abruptly engulfed by the black vortex.
Erya looked around and found herself in an unknown universe.
Boom!
A ten-thousand-meter-tall divine statue manifested in front of Erya, and it was a divine statue with eighty percent divinity!
Outside of the vortex, Madam Chu’s eyes narrowed as she exclaimed, “A Divine Statue Domain!”
The white-robed young man cast a curious look at Madam Chu.
Madam Chu saw that and explained, “It's a domain unique to those with eighty percent divinity. Once they are enlightened to the workings of a Divine Statue Domain, the power of their divine statue will go through a qualitative change… Shen Yu is being cautious here. He's no longer underestimating that evil beast, and you can see it by the fact that he immediately used his ultimate move.”
The white-robed young man was shocked. After a while, he asked, “Grandmother, is his backer perhaps a cultivator with ninety percent divinity?”
Madam Chu fell silent. Ninety percent divinity? If that's the case, then the God Clan is doomed; even the Primordial Spirit Clan will have to tread lightly around him.
A Divine Dao Realm cultivator with ninety percent divinity was undoubtedly formidable—formidable enough that even the Chu Palace at its peak or the Primordial Spirit Land at its peak wouldn't dare to confront them if possible.
Madam Chu's gaze was full of doubt as she stared at Ye Guan. Does this young swordsman really have such a powerful person backing him up?
She couldn’t say for sure.
Meanwhile, Erya was as calm as always as she stared at the towering divine statue. The divine statue was so colossal that Erya seemed as insignificant and as tiny as an ant before it.
Just then, the divine statue clenched its right fist and swung it toward Erya.
It was an earth-shattering punch that made the star fields beyond the vortex boil and churn. Waves of destructive energy swept toward Erya like tidal waves.
Everything was obliterated in the face of this punch!
If Shen Yu hadn't moved the battlefield inside the black vortex, then this punch would have destroyed countless star fields outside.
The destructive power of a supreme elite possessing eighty percent divinity was indeed not to be trifled with.
Ye Guan’s expression turned solemn as he stared at the punch. Can Erya withstand that punch?
Ye Guan stared at Erya, who was leisurely licking her candied hawthorn, seemingly unfazed by the terrifying punch that was coming toward her.
Ye Guan couldn't help but shake his head and smile. As far as he could remember, Erya was never afraid of anything.
When the punch was close enough to Erya, she dashed forward and collided with the divine statue's fist. She had decided to confront it head-on!
When Erya collided with it...
Boom!
A myriad of stars were extinguished at once, and the world became a pitch-black void.
Ye Guan immediately became nervous, staring intently at the void.
A few moments later, a towering divine statue appeared in his line of sight.
Erya... lost?
Crack!
A resonant noise echoed as the divine statue abruptly crumbled into ashes.
The faces of the God Clan's supreme elites turned pale while Ye Guan let out a sigh of relief. She won! Erya won!
Erya emerged slowly from the black vortex.
Shen Yu, standing in the distance behind her, had his fleshly body obliterated; he was in his soul form, and his figure flickered intermittently, teetering on the edge of dissipating into nothingness.
“Your physique…” Shen Yu muttered in bewilderment. He was stupefied. The little girl had used her fleshly body to destroy his divine statue. It was so absurd and terrifying that Shen Yu was at a loss for words.
Erya ignored Shen Yu and returned to Ye Guan’s side. She opened her palm, and a storage ring appeared in her hand.
Ye Guan was stunned.
Erya said, “It's yours.”
Ye Guan blinked and muttered, “This…”
Erya placed the storage ring in Ye Guan's hand before turning to the supreme elites of the God Clan, asking, “Anyone else?”
The supreme elites of the God Clan revealed soured looks at the remark. Even their former clan leader had been slain, so who would be Erya's match among them?
A blanket of silence fell over everyone.
And that was when Shen Qi exclaimed, “Madam Chu! Are you not going to make your move yet?”
In the shadows, Madam Chu frowned. Is that bastard out of his mind? He's asking me to intervene after what just happened? I think he wants me to die.
The Chu Palace was no longer as powerful as it was during its prime, but its foundation was still unfathomably deep.
However, Madam Chu dared not use her trump cards right now, as the little girl had clearly not used her full strength to kill Shen Yu, who possessed eighty percent divinity…
Madam Chu? Ye Guan turned to the right. He knew that Madam Chu had been hiding in the shadows. After all, he had Erya by his side.
Noticing that Ye Guan's gaze was on her, Madam Chu realized that she could no longer hide.
She stepped out of the shadows, feeling the need to explain herself, so she said, “Young Lord Ye, we bear no ill will toward you. We've come here just to observe the battle, that's all.”
“Madam Chu!” Shen Qi roared, “You're breaking your promise?!”
Madam Chu calmly responded, “Shen Qi, I have no idea what you're talking about.”
Shen Qi was enraged. He didn't expect that the Chu Palace would be so unreliable. He couldn't have known that they'd switch sides at the critical juncture.
Madam Chu remained expressionless, choosing to feign ignorance.
Meanwhile, the Northern Demon King and the Northern Sealing Demon General revealed grim looks upon witnessing the end of the battle just now. The Northern Sealing Demon General also realized that the Ancient Wilderness couldn't afford to jump into the fray.
The strength of the evil beast standing next to Ye Guan had far exceeded their expectations.
The Northern Sealing Demon General turned to look at the Northern Demon King and suggested, “Demon King, it is not wise for us to jump into the—”
The Northern Demon King raised his right hand to stop the Northern Sealing Demon General from speaking. He looked up at Shen Qi and transmitted. “If your God Clan can suppress that evil beast, then my Ancient Wilderness will get rid of Ye Guan for you.”
Erya was so strong that an entire clan was needed to suppress her.
Shen Qi knew the magnitude of that task, and his expression became solemn upon hearing the Northern Demon King's words.
Suppress that evil beast? It would be an understatement to say that it was a difficult task.
However, Shen Qi knew that if the God Clan failed at the task, the Ancient Wilderness would definitely not make a move.
If that ended up happening, then the God Clan would…
Would the God Clan really have to play all their cards right now?
Truth be told, Shen QI was reluctant to do so. Those cards were supposed to be used only when they were on the brink of annihilation. Using those cards meant exposing them, so Shen Qi was reluctant to do so.
The Northern Demon King frowned and added, “Why are you still hiding your cards at this point? Do you know what's going to happen if the God Clan loses today's battle?”
Shen Qi was jolted awake by the Northern Demon King's words. Indeed! Wouldn't the God Clan cease to exist if they ended up losing today's battle?
Realizing that, Shen Qi no longer hesitated. He was about to deploy the God Clan’s strongest trump card when a voice echoed in his mind. “Clan Leader Shen Qi, do not be rash. I will help you.”
Shen Qi was stunned to hear this voice, but his shock quickly transformed into delight. The voice belonged to the Black Death Sovereign of the Black Death Realm.
Shen Qi was both excited and moved to hear that voice.
The Black Death Sovereign was a woman of her word. Shen Qi thought that she wouldn't intervene, so he was truly taken aback when he realized that the Black Death Sovereign was honorable enough to keep her word.
What a reliable ally!
