At the sight of this, Xiao Niao, who was about to take action, and the other cultivators from the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Mansion were all stunned. Nine Spirits were actually so powerful?


Although that Zither Skate's aura was only at the level of a Grade Seven Heavenly Marquis, its true strength was probably not weaker than an ordinary Grade Eight Heavenly Marquis. A Grade Nine Heavenly Marquis was actually not weaker than a Grade Six Heavenly Marquis. Where did these nine spirits come from?


"Tsssss ~ ~ ~" The Zither Skate roared, and the two fins wrapped around its body spread out. After flapping a few times, its body stabilized on the surface of the sea. On top of its head, its two large eyes blinked a few times, revealing its extremely human-like shock and incredulity.


"Again!"


Nine spirits swooped down from the sky and rapidly approached the zither ray, as if a towering mountain was descending from the nine heavens with a rumble, as if it could crush any obstacle into powder. That thunder-like aura filled the air, and even the people in the distance felt an enormous sense of oppression.


The zither ray seemed to be frightened and furious, but it didn't continue to tangle with the nine spirits. With a wave of its tail, Pang Shuo's body fell into the sea and was instantly covered in seawater.

The terrifying Strength Qi covered the surface of the sea and the waves crazily rolled around. However, there were no longer any Zither Skates left in the seawater.

"Ga ji!"


Lei Ming's cry carried a trace of dissatisfaction. The nine spirits rushed across the surface of the sea and rushed up towards the sky, and Pang Shuo's body began to shrink rapidly, first transforming into a little nine-coloured bird, and then back into the little girl dressed in colorful skirt from before. His delicate little face had a look of depression on it.


"Wouldn't it be better to run away?"

When she heard Jiu Ling's words, she could not help but burst out laughing, "For a Heavenly Beast like the Zither Fly, if we can't kill it, we have to do our best not to kill it. If we kill one, we might attract four or more Heavenly Beasts. The days of being chased down by the Zither Skates in the Zither Sea were not easy. "

Unless it was a last resort, cultivators that entered the Demonic Zither Sea would rarely deliberately kill a Zither Skate.


Especially when he had the upper hand. Zither Skates were different from other Heavenly Beasts. When they attacked, one of them attacked first, while the other hid under the sea. If one was killed, the other would immediately flee, attracting even more Zither Skates.


Unless he could kill both of them at the same time.


Once a Zither Skate successfully escaped, they would definitely be hunted down. They would then face a situation where there would be no end to their lives until the day they managed to break out of the Demonic Zither Sea alive.

"I just want to exercise, I don't want to kill it." Jiu Ling chuckled, "Since it has fled, then forget it. There's still so much time before other Zither Skates appear."

"..."


The group continued forward.


Although the zither had already fled, the group didn't completely let their guard down. After all, no one knew if it was hiding somewhere nearby or if it was truly far away.


Time flew by, and day passed and night came. Unknowingly, it was already the third night since they had entered the "Primal Beginning Immortal Domain".

Ever since the zither ray had left, no one had been attacked by any Heavenly Beasts. All along the way, the journey was calm, and only a fight had been seen in the distance. On one side were two Zither Skates, and on the other side were four rather familiar looking cultivators who had once appeared in the Hall of Immortal Ascension.

By the time the discovery was made, the battle had already come to an end. Although the two Zither Skates were riddled with wounds, they were still fearless of death. The four cultivators, on the other hand, had a slight advantage.

With the gap separating them, the four of them immediately dropped the two Zither Skates and began to desperately flee. It was obvious that they were afraid that they would be overtaken by Xiao Nian Die and the rest. Naturally, Xiao Niao and the others weren't so idle. They didn't change their direction and continued to move forward.

To them, the most important thing right now was to quickly leave the Demonic Zither Sea and reach the surface. If they were to encounter them again, it wouldn't be too late to settle the score.


As the sky darkened, the group slowed down.

"Hua — —" Under the cover of night, a huge wave suddenly soared into the sky without any forewarning. It reached up to a thousand meters and blocked everyone's path.

"Be careful!"


"Zither ray!"

"..."

Xiao Nian Die's eyes became serious and the nine spirits' eyes lit up. Everyone around her became alert.


As expected, it was a Zither Ray, and its body was even larger than the one they had encountered before. It was at least two thousand meters tall, and it silently emerged from the waves, its dark and gloomy body seeming to be one with the surrounding night.


However, the aura that faintly seeped out from his body was extremely terrifying. It was many times stronger than the Zither Hawk from before.

"Peak of the ninth level?"

Xiao Nian Die immediately knew the strength of the zither ray and could not help but cry out. Her expression became extremely serious; even Jiu Ling's expression changed slightly, and the surrounding cultivators' eyebrows involuntarily revealed a hint of shock that was difficult to conceal.


The Zither Skate's aura was comparable to a peak-tier Ninth Heaven Marquis, but that did not mean that he was weak at all.


Under normal circumstances, such a marquis would've been able to contend against several other peak-ninth level sky dukes. Even though there were three Ninth Marquis in the group, Xiao Niao was the only one who was a peak Ninth Marquis. Even if they fought to the death, they would barely be able to defend against this Zither Shade that had suddenly appeared.


Zither Skates had always acted in pairs. With the appearance of this black Zither Skate, there should be another white female Zither Skate at the bottom of the sea, and its strength should not be any weaker than that of the Zither Skate.

This time, it was really dangerous!

As soon as the words left her mouth, Xiao Niandie shot a look at the nine spirits.


The people in the surroundings started to move as fast as they could, and soon began to gather in circles. The ones with the strongest cultivation stayed outside, while the ones with the weakest cultivation were in the deeper, weakest were in the middle, and were surrounded by so many layers.


"Whooosh."

The zither ray didn't immediately launch an attack, but instead floated quietly in the air, staring straight at Xiao Niao, Jiu Ling, and the rest. Its two large, dark green eyes were ice-cold, causing one's heart to tremble.

"Tsssss ~ ~ ~ Tsss ~ ~ ~"


Two cries broke through the surface of the sea and shot straight into the sky. They were melodious and bright, as if they were responding to the zither ray.


However, when they heard this sound, a hint of doubt appeared in the eyes of Jiu Ling, Xiao Xiang Die, and many other cultivators.
