Chapter 2540 A bloody night Du Fan shook his head. “I’m not sure either. For the time being, we’ll have to wait until they return.” They all looked at each other and realised that worrying was pointless at this point. They had no choice but to wait here. However, waiting was always the most difficult part. They had the impression that time had stopped. They kept waiting for Feng Jiu and Xuanyuan Mo Ze to return, but they couldn’t see their shadows… The dozen or so cultivators who attacked Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu were unable to approach them after they unleashed powerful pressures. As a result, those dozen or so cultivators focused their attacks on Cloud Devouring Beast, inflicting multiple injuries on the beast with lethal moves. The Immortal Emperor Strong Exponent engaged in combat with Feng Jiu and Xuanyuan Mo Ze. However, when the two joined hands, he was no longer able to harm his opponents. As a result, he chose to withdraw after a long battle. “Withdraw!” 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦 All of the cultivators were preparing to leave as soon as the order to withdraw was given. Xuanyuan Mo Ze, on the other hand, was not going to let them go. His cold eyes were filled with chilling killing intent as he stared at the figure who abruptly withdrew more than ten metres away and flew into midair. “Azure Dragon!” His body immediately emitted a dazzling light. In response to the summon, Azure Dragon, an ancient sacred beast, darted out of his body. It roared as it swung its tail to the sky, its body covered in azure scales. At the sound of the roar, the sky was instantly filled with the ancient pressure of the dragon. The dozen or so cultivators attempting to flee appeared to be trapped in midair, unable to move. The Immortal Emperor Strong Exponent saw this and turned to flee, but he was no match for Azure Dragon who flew out at the speed of light. “Roar!” The Azure Dragon let out a roar and transformed into an azure light in mid-air, whizzing towards the Immortal Emperor Strong Exponent. The Immortal Emperor’s expression changed to shock when the smell of death hit him in the face and his heart started to race. He looked back almost instinctively,but only in time to see Azure Dragon transform into a bright azure light. He didn’t have time to dodge or evade. Azure Dragon’s powerful and fierce airflow made him aware that if he was struck, he would die! Thus, when Azure Dragon attacked, he abandoned his physical body to leave in his Nascent Soul form. The Nascent Soul that flew out of the body swept away like a meteor, catching everyone off guard. “Wait for me! I’ll be right back!” The vicious and unwilling voice came from afar and echoed for a long time in the sky. “Bang!” At the same moment, the azure light penetrated the physical body of the Immortal Emperor. The body disintegrated after a loud bang. Flesh and blood splattered in midair, fell to the ground, and vanished into the dark night… “Whoosh!” The Azure Dragon spun around in mid-air, transforming back into an azure light. It whizzed through the trapped cultivators in midair. Those cultivators who couldn’t escape using their Nascent Soul form due to the ancient sacred beast’s pressure could only watch helplessly as they were slaughtered. “Aaah!” Screams rang out in the night sky until peace was restored. The crescent moon hung half-hidden in the night sky, gleaming faintly with a slightly visible glow. However, under the calm moonlight, the stench of blood pervaded the air…
