When they heard that, the Jade Lotus Master, the Rushing Lightning Immortal Exalt, the Blood Butcher Immortal Exalt, and the Ancient Virtune Immortal Exalt exchanged glances. In the next moment, surging energy erupted from within them, mixing together in space and rapidly forming a profound formation.
The formation originated from the Master of Profound Secrets. It was not capable of offence or defence. Its only purpose was to assist the Master of Profound Secrets in collecting the essence of the five organs faster.
As soon as the formation took shape, the Master of Profound Secrets’ cauldron immediately began to absorb the essence of the five organs several dozen times faster than before. The essence of the five organs turned into a stream the thickness of a finger, forcefully stripped from the Starflame Demon Lion’s heart. Eventually, it flowed into the cauldron.
After losing the essence, the Starflame Demon Lion’s massive heart immediately began to shrink at a visible rate.
The Starflame Demon Lion began to panic. It let out furious growls, wanting to put up a desperate struggle, but it was immobilised by the Illusionary Ancestor’s suppression.
“We already have enough essence of the heart. Let’s go to the liver!” A while later, the Master of Profound Secrets yelled out and stopped gathering the essence of the heart. With the four Immortal Exalts, he made his way over to the location of the Starflame Demon Lion’s liver.
Afterwards, they repeated the process. The Illusionary Ancestor struck personally, penetrating the Starflame Demon Lion’s defences, and the residual presence of laws prevented its wounds from closing up. Afterwards, the Master of Profound Secrets collected its essence of the five organs.
But at this moment, the Illusionary Ancestor’s expression suddenly changed. Shortly afterwards, her surging presence receded like the tide. Her strength regressed severely, dropping from her peak, the Seventh Heavenly Layer of Immortal Exalt, to the Sixth Heavenly Layer.
Afterwards, she fell all the way from the Sixth Heavenly Layer to the Fifth Heavenly Layer.
In just a short while, the Illusionary Ancestor’s supreme cultivation faced a severe decline. Even the chains of order that restrained the Starflame Demon Lion weakened with her.
Since she had regressed to a Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, the Illusionary Ancestor could no longer suppress the Starflame Demon Lion as easily as before despite her bloodline as a Grand Exalt, her powerful cultivation method, and her ancient secret techniques.
The Starflame Demon Lion let out a furious roar, and the chains that penetrated its body all snapped apart. It immediately broke free from all restraints, recovering its freedom.
Even its wounds that previously struggled to close rapidly healed at a visible rate.
As the Illusionary Ancestor’s strength fell, she could no longer stop the Starflame Demon Lion from healing itself.
“Oh no! Retreat!” The expressions of the Master of Profound Secrets and the others who were currently collecting the Starflame Demon Lion’s essence of the five organs changed. They pulled away from the Starflame Demon Lion, flying into the distance.
But it was already too late. The Starflame Demon Lion’s colossal eyes had already locked onto the five of them. It opened its colossal mouth and bit down towards them.
They directly felt their bodies sink. In the next moment, tremendous force seemed to squeeze in from all sides, wanting to freeze the space and limit their movements. They could only watch helplessly as the huge mouth of the Starflame Demon Lion approached them.
“You want to eat all of us in one gulp? Your appetite is just too great, you animal. Aren’t you afraid of a stomach ache?” The Blood Butcher Immortal Exalt sneered. In the next moment, the four Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts struck at the same time. Blinding light wove together as four high quality god artifacts struck out with great might, devastating the space there and landing against the Starflame Demon Lion’s head heavily.
Boom!
A storm was kicked up in outer space. Under the combined attack from four Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts, the Starflame Demon Lion halted and was momentarily repelled.
It had yet to recover from its heavy injuries it suffered from the Illusionary Ancestor. Otherwise, four Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts would have never been enough to shake it.
However, the four experts did not try to engage it any further. After repelling the Starflame Demon Lion’s attack, they gathered around the Master of Profound Secrets and quickly fled into the distance while protecting him.
The Starflame Demon Lion’s colossal eyes were fixed on the Master of Profound Secrets, filled with bloodthirstiness and madness. It seemed to hate this man to its core. After all, he had harvested its essence of the five organs.
Right when it wanted to pursue, the Illusionary Ancestor strode over from afar. A golden lotus bloomed beneath her feet. Every lotus petal contained the profound aura of ways as if it possessed a mysterious power that could communicate with the world and mobilise the power of laws.
The golden lotus grew larger and larger underneath the Illusionary Ancestor, blotting out the sky. The terrifying shockwave it gave off filled the Starflame Demon Lion’s eyes with caution.
In the next moment, the golden lotus that had become enormous suddenly closed together. Its petals bunched up firmly, completely covering the Starflame Demon Lion’s huge body.
Immediately, the Starflame Demon Lion vanished from the sea of stars. Only a colossal golden lotus stood there, where its closed petals bulged.
Roar! The Starflame Demon Lion let out a growl inside the golden lotus. It struggled furiously as its tremendous power as a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt shook up the interior, making the surrounding space twist violently. Countless spatial cracks appeared.
The Golden lotus was gradually dyed blood-red. Copious amounts of blood squeezed out from the inside.
The golden lotus clearly possessed unfathomable power. Having been cast by the Illusionary Ancestor with her strength as a Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, not only could it momentarily trap the Sixth Heavenly Layer Starflame Demon Lion, but it even made it suffer inside.
At this moment, the Illusionary Ancestor was no longer as relaxed as before. She became extremely stern. Her terrifying energy circulated inside her body, surging furiously into the golden lotus.
But after only a few seconds, a rumble erupted in outer space. The Illusionary Ancestor’s golden lotus immediately collapsed, turning into countless golden fragments that dissipated into the surroundings as pure energy.
The Starflame Demon Lion had broken out. It was bloodied and covered in injuries. Each injury was like a chasm, which formed a horrific sight.
It roared furiously; its huge eyes turned scarlet red. It opened its mouth, and a huge beam of energy blasted out, piercing through space right towards the Illusionary Ancestor.
The beam of energy possessed great might. When the Jade Lotus Master, the Blood Butcher Immortal Exalt, the Rushing Lightning Immortal Exalt, and the Ancient Virtue Immortal Exalt sensed it, their expressions all changed.
The Illusionary Ancestor was unfazed. She produced a series of seals and used an ultimate secret technique. Her presence immediately faded away; the space she resided in underwent some minute changes as well.
It all happened in a split second. The energy blast from the Starflame Demon Lion arrived, but before it could even make contact with the Illusionary Ancestor, it was rebounded by the space in front of her.
Boom! The Starflame Demon Lion’s mouth immediately exploded. It was injured by its own attack, reduced to a bloody mess.
