173: Chapter 173: Rescued

Li Xiaoyao was also a Sword Cultivator, and Lin Feng at this time also took out a flower basket Magic Treasure and a cyan jade flute.

Wang Sicong held the flower basket Magic Treasure; this flower basket looked ordinary, but it actually contained a universe within, capable of releasing streaks of blue light that could seize and weaken the Magic Treasures controlled by Cultivators.

The jade flute, on the other hand, was a sound attack Magic Treasure, and as Wang Sicong played it, crisp and pleasant flute sounds rang out, yet carried a soul-stirring power that caused the Nether General's attacks to involuntarily pause.

Seeing this, Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao both perked up.

They knew that this Nether General was powerful, and the situation here was unclear; since they had made an enemy of him, they had to kill him as quickly as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao cooperated tacitly, one attacking and one defending, engaging in a fierce battle with the Nether General.

Wang Sicong's flower basket Magic Treasure continuously released blue light, weakening the Magic Treasures controlled by the Nether General, while Li Xiaoyao's swordplay was sharp, constantly looking for the Nether General's weaknesses.

Although the Nether General was powerful and had a strong Physical Body, under the combined efforts of the two, his strength was completely suppressed.

Especially the sound attack of the jade flute, which made his Divine Soul unstable, this was also his weak point; he thought his full strength was in his Physical Body, and with his Divine Soul under attack, he simply couldn't exert his full power.

Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao also noticed this, and both were overjoyed.

They knew this was the best opportunity to defeat the Nether General.

The jade flute in Wang Sicong's hand played more and more urgently, and the soul-stirring power carried within the crisp and pleasant flute sounds grew stronger and stronger.

The Nether General only felt as if his Divine Soul was about to be torn apart by the flute sounds, suffering immensely.

Li Xiaoyao, seizing this opportunity, made his swordplay even more ferocious, each sword strike aimed at the Nether General's vital points.

The Nether General had no choice but to divert his energy to block Li Xiaoyao's attacks, which made him even more passive.

Under the combined efforts of the two, this so-called Nether General was defeated by Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao in just a few moves, collapsing to the ground, his breath faint.

A flicker of unwillingness and despair flashed in the Nether General's eyes.

He hadn't expected that he, a dignified Nether General at the Peak of the third Realm, would fall into the hands of these two cultivators.

Wang Sicong looked at the fallen Nether General, without a hint of pity in his heart.

In this Nether Sea Region, sympathy was the most extravagant thing.

He walked to the Nether General's side and said coldly, "Do you know that what you did today was seeking your own death?"

The Nether General struggled to raise his head, looked at Wang Sicong, and said, "I... I just wanted to avenge my Netherworld demonic beasts... I didn't expect... to encounter experts like you..."

Wang Sicong shook his head slightly upon hearing this.

He knew that in this Cultivation World, strength determined everything.

That they were able to defeat the Nether General today was also because their strength was greater than his.

He turned to Li Xiaoyao and said, "Brother Li, let's go.

It's not advisable to stay here long."

Li Xiaoyao nodded, and with a movement of their bodies, they prepared to leave this place.

Just then, the fallen Nether General suddenly moved, unexpectedly erupting in an attack, striking at Wang Sicong's back.

Wang Sicong was greatly alarmed; he hadn't expected this Nether General to still have the strength to counterattack.

But fortunately, Li Xiaoyao reacted quickly; with a movement of his body, he had already blocked in front of Wang Sicong, and with one sword strike, he knocked the Nether General down again.

Wang Sicong looked at the fallen Nether General, a wave of lingering fear in his heart.

If it hadn't been for Li Xiaoyao's quick reaction today, he might have lost his life here.

He looked at Li Xiaoyao and said, "Brother Li, thank you for saving my life."

Li Xiaoyao smiled slightly and said, "Brother Wang is too polite; we are companions, and helping each other is only natural."

Looking at the Nether General, who had been cut into three sections by Li Xiaoyao but was not yet killed, Wang Sicong knew that although the Nether General's Physical Body had been destroyed, his Divine Soul had not dissipated.

If he wasn't completely killed, there might still be future troubles.

So he quickly brought out a Magic Treasure specifically used to suppress Divine Souls, completely suppressing the Nether General's Divine Soul within it, to prevent it from escaping.

After doing all this, Wang Sicong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at Li Xiaoyao and said, "Brother Li, I didn't expect this Nether General to be so troublesome.

If it weren't for your help today, I might have lost my life here."

Li Xiaoyao smiled slightly upon hearing this and said, "Brother Wang is too polite.

Let's hurry and leave this place.

Since this demon has already developed intelligence, it might have companions.

If we attract more Netherworld demonic beasts, that would be troublesome."

Wang Sicong nodded upon hearing this, a wave of lingering fear in his heart.

He knew that he owed his life today entirely to Li Xiaoyao's help.

The two said no more, and with a movement of their bodies, they prepared to leave this place.

However, just then, the surrounding seawater suddenly began to boil, as if something was about to surge out from the bottom of the sea.

Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao both changed their expressions greatly.

They knew that this Nether Sea Region was full of unknowns and dangers, and they had to remain vigilant at all times.

Indeed, as the seawater boiled, huge Netherworld demonic beasts surged out from the bottom of the sea, attacking Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao.

These Netherworld demonic beasts were powerful, carrying a dense nether energy, and their attacks were exceptionally fierce.

Seeing this, Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao both moved, meeting these Netherworld demonic beasts.

A great battle erupted again.

Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao cooperated tacitly, one attacking and one defending, engaging in a fierce battle with these Netherworld demonic beasts.

Relying on their superb cultivation and considerable combat power, the two gradually gained the upper hand.

However, just then, the largest Netherworld demonic beast suddenly let out a deafening roar, and then its body began to swell as if it was about to self-destruct.

Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao were both greatly alarmed; they hadn't expected this Netherworld demonic beast to have such a move.

They quickly retreated, wanting to get away from this Netherworld demonic beast.

However, just then, that Netherworld demonic beast had already self-destructed, and the powerful energy fluctuations instantly stirred up thousand-foot waves in the surrounding seawater.

Although Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao reacted quickly, they were still shaken by the powerful energy fluctuations, their Qi and blood churning, suffering serious injuries.

The two endured their injuries, supporting each other as they moved away from the site of the self-destruction.

Looking at the raging seawater and the continuously surging Netherworld demonic beasts, Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao both felt a wave of despair.

At this moment, both of them couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, fearing that they might lose their lives here today.

However, just then, a clear flute sound suddenly rang out in the surroundings, and then a cyan Phoenix appeared from the Void Realm, attacking those Netherworld demonic beasts.

Although those Netherworld demonic beasts were powerful, under the attack of this cyan Phoenix, they were completely powerless to fight back, and were defeated one after another.

Wang Sicong and Li Xiaoyao both watched this scene in surprise, wondering where this cyan Phoenix came from.

And just then, the cyan Phoenix had already flown in front of the two of them, transforming into a woman dressed in a cyan dress.

This woman had an exquisite face and an ethereal demeanor, as if she were a Fairy who had stepped out of a painting.
