Chapter 623: Chapter 264: Relentless

After a brief flicker in his eyes, Qin Fang flew forward in a wide arc.

His movement immediately drew the attention of these disciples.

However, when they saw the direction Qin Fang was flying, their expressions all turned even uglier!

"This guy... he’s trying to block our escape route... He wants to take all of us down by himself!"

Someone said in a low voice, grinding their teeth.

The direction Qin Fang was flying was precisely towards the entrance.

"What do we do now? This person is only at the Divine Illumination Realm, but he’s too difficult to deal with. His Body Technique, Body Protection, and Attack Leaf Skill have probably all been cultivated to an extremely high Realm... And then there’s that terrifyingly troublesome Profound Nether Nature... If he keeps causing trouble, we’ll probably be in real danger."

A disciple said, his face grim.

It was the disciple from Lingyun Sword Pavilion who had been the first to intercept Qin Fang.

...Through the brief clash just now, they had come to fully realize how terrifying Qin Fang was.

"His... his Profound Nether Nature has probably surpassed the Fourth Grade..."

The disciple whose hands were covered in Profound Ice spoke, his voice trembling...

...This was the very disciple from Fuling Hidden Dragon Hall. After Qin Fang had shattered his Gun Gang, a trace of Profound Nether True Gang had traveled through the shaft of his spear and into his hands.

Right now, his face was deathly pale. The True Gang in his entire body was surging madly to resist, but it was still useless. His True Gang was being consumed at a terrifying rate, and the Profound Ice was already spreading from his hands towards his elbows.

Behind him, the Fuling Hall disciple with the Li Fire Nature was still pouring in his True Gang, but his expression was also frighteningly grim.

’Those hands... they’re probably a lost cause.’

Young Master Lin’s face was gloomy. He was clearly racking his brain for a way to break the deadlock.

The young man leading the Fuling Hall disciples kept turning his head to glance at Qin Fang in the distance, his expression fraught with indecision.

Young Master Lin was silent for a long while before gritting his teeth and saying, "There’s no other way. We can only sue for peace."

"Sue for peace?"

Everyone looked at him in shock.

"The opponent has almost no weaknesses, and that Nature of his is especially terrifying. In the next hour, we have to face at least two more waves of Demons... If he so much as disrupts us slightly, our casualties will likely be enormous. And if things go wrong..."

Young Master Lin paused here, then took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "We can only sue for peace for now. At least until we get through this period. After we leave the Grotto Heaven... the Sects will have their own way of settling this."

"I miscalculated this time. I originally thought that by gathering the power of the Three Sects, we could completely crush the Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect. I never expected them to have such a terrifying existence among them..."

Young Master Lin said with a light sigh.

Actually, under normal circumstances, his judgment wouldn’t have been wrong. Combining the power of the Three Sects, they really wouldn’t have feared the Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect... provided everyone’s Cultivation was the same.

For example, before, a total of four people were standing guard, with the combat-incapable Junior Brother Feng watching from below... The remaining ten were more than enough to kill the True Blood Tiger Demon.

So, under normal circumstances, even if they had snatched the treasure from the Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect, the sect wouldn’t have been able to take it back. In a five-on-five fight, with everyone being Guizhen Realm powerhouses, it would have been very difficult for them to even disrupt the Three Sects’ operation.

And once the Three Sects eliminated the Demon Queen, they could immediately concentrate their forces... What could the Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect possibly do?

They could only accept their loss!

But alas, a monster had appeared in the Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect, one who completely defied all logic.

This was the key point where his calculations went wrong.

"This person is so strong, he should be able to kill that True Blood Elephant Demon all by himself... How did he end up in such a sorry state?"

Someone asked, grinding their teeth in doubt.

The scene immediately fell into silence.

...The battle scene they had witnessed upon arriving was this: Qin Fang was being suppressed by the Great Demon, while the other members of the Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect simultaneously unleashed their attacks on the Elephant Demon. Qin Fang had even been nearly stomped to death by the Elephant Demon... if his sect members hadn’t saved him.

Therefore, they had absolutely no idea... that in reality, Qin Fang had been suppressing the True Blood Elephant Demon all by himself the entire time.

It was only at the end that the Elephant Demon unleashed its Lifebound Divine Technique, catching him off guard and putting him in a perilous situation.

This was what had sent Senior Brother Zhuang and the others into a panic, causing them to immediately launch an all-out assault on the giant elephant...

But these people had arrived at an inopportune moment; they only saw the scene of the Heavenly Gang Sect members all attacking at once.

...After using its Lifebound Divine Technique, the giant elephant’s aura had plummeted, and it then used Blood Burning to try and escape.

But its speed was too slow. It didn’t get far before being frozen solid by Qin Fang.

...Although they had seen at the time that Qin Fang’s Profound Nether Nature seemed a bit too strong...

...they had subconsciously assumed it was because the giant elephant was too exhausted, and that’s why it had no ability to resist.

...In other words...

Their decision to snatch the Silver Grass from the Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect was based on a complete and utter ’misunderstanding’!

Because their preconceived notion was that all five of them had worked together to kill the giant elephant, it led them to misjudge the true combat strength of the Heavenly Gang Wuji Sect!

That’s why, upon seeing the Silver Grass, they had decisively chosen to make a move!

...A free Treasure Plant that would tempt even a Seventh Realm Powerhouse...

Who would give that up?

...But they never expected that the subsequent development of the situation would completely exceed their expectations.

...If they had known earlier that there was someone among their opponents who could fight the True Blood Elephant Demon alone...

They would have never acted so rashly!

"Let’s talk first and see what he has to say."

Young Master Lin said after taking a deep breath.

"I’m afraid he won’t let this go easily. He’s already used lethal force; the enmity has already been sown," the young man from Fuling Hall said gravely.

"There’s no harm in asking... I’ll go."

Having said this, Young Master Lin stood up, and his figure shot through the air, heading straight for Qin Fang.

The others watched from a distance, not moving.

Qin Fang couldn’t hear what they were discussing, but seeing Young Master Lin shooting through the air towards him, he narrowed his eyes and stood his ground.
