Standing closest to Dark Night Emperor, Qingfeng Li saw clearly that the Monarch's soul had trembled for an instant just now. It seemed that he was no match for Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar. After all, this was a Saint's Avatar.

Qingfeng Li stared at Dark Night Emperor before him, his eyes filled with worry. He knew that the only thing he could depend on right now was Dark Night Emperor. Once even the Monarch fell in defeat, his situation would become terribly perilous.

Qingfeng Li furrowed his brow. "Let's go up," he suggested to Black Puppy beside him. "We can help Dark Night Emperor fight Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar."

Black Puppy gave him a humorless smile. "Qingfeng Li," it said, "the only way we can get between a battle of Saints would be if we could become Saints right now. Otherwise, if we go up, we'd be dead for sure."

"Qingfeng Li," Sky-Devouring Snake also explained from beside him. "You don't know the difference between a Saint and the spirit monarch realm. the difference is night and day. It's not just the matter of a single Realm's difference."

Saints had a profound understanding of the Heavenly Dao Law and the Laws of Heaven and Earth. they were able to control most of the power of Heavenly Dao. An enraged Saint could make rivers run red with the blood of a million people, or even destroy a whole planet on their own.

If this were the full manifestation of Nine-Headed Saint Lion, and not just an Avatar, it could smash the entire Crimson Fire Continent to dust with just one blow.

Qingfeng Li's expression changed. Having heard Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake's explanations, he finally understood the immense power of the Saints.

He pondered to himself, which of his Dharma treasures could do harm to Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar?

Qingfeng Li knew that he must help Dark Night Emperor. After all, the Monarch was currently only a soul without a body. there was no way the Monarch could measure up to Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar.

He could clearly see that Dark Night Emperor had been repeatedly forced back by his opponent's attacks. Even his soul began to appear transparent. He could be defeated at any moment.

Qingfeng Li possessed many Dharma treasures, the Sky-Breaking Halberd, golden flame, the Power of the Dragon God Bloodline, the Chaos Millstone, and the Fire Dragon Soul.

However, the Fire Dragon Soul had fallen into a deep slumber. No matter how much Qingfeng Li called out, it did not reply.

As for the Chaos Millstone, while it was able to attack souls directly, it had also fallen into slumber a short while back. Qingfeng Li tried to call to it a few times but it, too, was unresponsive.

Of course, there was another all-powerful entity deep asleep inside Qingfeng Li's interspatial ring. This was the Peacock Demon Monarch. If he could wake her, she would definitely be able to kill Nine-Headed Saint Lion before them.

The Peacock Demon Monarch was an entity capable of challenging the Heavenly Dao Mandates. Unfortunately, the last incident on Earth where the Peacock Demon Monarch had faced the power of the Origins of Heavenly Dao, she had sustained heavy injuries and likewise fallen into slumber.

As it was, Qingfeng Li had many Dharma treasures, but there weren't many he could use.

Qingfeng Li turned to Black Puppy beside him. "If I use the Sky-Breaking Halberd or golden flame," he asked, "could I kill Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar?"

Black Puppy shook its fuzzy head. "Your Sky-Breaking Halberd might be an ultimate treasure, but right now you've only learned two stances; its power is limited. there's no way you can kill Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar with it, not unless you learn all the Stances. As for golden flame, it's a saint level flame. It might be able to harm Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar, but there's no way you can kill it."

Qingfeng Li sighed. He also knew that it was impossible. Even though golden flame were strong, it was only effective against self-cultivators below the Saint level.

Once self-cultivators reached the Saint level, they would be at the same power level as golden flame. Naturally, it would be difficult to kill them with it.

Not giving up, Qingfeng Li continued to ask, "What about the Dragon Blood and Dragon Bone. they contain the prestige of the Dragon God."

This time, Black Puppy was silent, and it was Sky-Devouring Snake that spoke. "Qingfeng Li," it replied, explaining, "you only have one drop of Dragon Blood and a small segment of the Dragon Bone. Although they could suppress other demonic beasts even if they are Demon Monarchs, they are still too weak before a Saint. You'd be killed for sure."

Qingfeng Li was out of ideas. Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake's explanations had left him crestfallen. He had thought that, with so many great treasures, he would be able to do something. He hadn't expected them all to be useless against Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar.

As an entity of the saint level, Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar was far too powerful. Of all the hundreds of millions of self-cultivators on the Crimson Fire Continent, there was not a single Saint.

Qingfeng Li's expression grew darker and darker, like a raincloud before a storm. He could see clearly that Dark Night Emperor was wounded. A beam of soul energy leaked out from his mouth. He was still no match for Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar.

The body of Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar was immense, towering above the clouds. Before it, Qingfeng Li and the others were like ants before a giant.

Even Dark Night Emperor was no match for it, not unless he could recover his Saint level power and find his body again. Only then, could he pose a real threat to the Avatar.

"Quickly," Dark Night Emperor said to Qingfeng Li, who was standing behind him, "run away! Don't worry about me. You're running out of time!"

Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar roared in laughter. "Trying to run?" it said. "None of you are getting away today. Cage of Heavens and Earth!"

Eighteen beams of golden light flew from Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar in all directions. Within a fifty thousand kilometer radius, all lifeforms were locked in place by the Avatar using dimensional force.

All the demonic beasts, plants, and animals were frozen where they stood, unable to move. Time and space were stopped in their tracks.

Igniting his own soul, Dark Night Emperor radiated a black soul light that flew up into the heavens, colliding with the golden light in order to protect Qingfeng Li.

He'd even went as far as to exhaust massive amounts of Soul Energy in order to break the curse of bondage upon Qingfeng Li, clearing a path for him to escape.

However, Qingfeng Li did not run. Because he knew that, before a master of the Sacred Realm, there was no way he could get away. Besides, the Mystic Sun Realm was only so big. Where could he possibly run to?

Once Dark Night Emperor died at Nine-Headed Saint Lion Avatar's hand, Qingfeng Li would be the next to go. And, in any case, Qingfeng Li was not about to abandon Dark Night Emperor.

Suddenly, Qingfeng Li's expression changed. A crazed look came over his eyes as he recalled the Heavenly Dao Mandate he'd just learned, the Killing God Lance.

After Qingfeng Li learned the Killing God Lance, he had never used it. This was because this was a law created by the Killing God back in the Ancient Universe Era.

In the ten thousand years since then, not one person had successfully mastered this technique. No one except Qingfeng Li.

The Killing God was from the Era of the Abandoned Universe. He'd once stood in opposition to the Heavens, slaying both Saints and Immortals before being terribly wounded himself. After that, he was reborn in the Ancient Universe Era.

Then, the Killing God once again opposed the Heavens. Using his Killing God Lance, he tore a hole in the Heavens themselves, shocking the entire Universe.

After that, the Killing God had entered a Black Hole, disappearing completely. Some said that he'd been wiped from existence by the Heavenly Dao, others said that the Heavens had imprisoned him. Still others said that he left and went to some unknown world. In any case, the Killing God had become a legend.
