Now, the fact that he had become a Demonic Cultivator was entirely due to Jared’s actions.
“Understood!” Abel quickly nodded in an obsequious manner.
If they offended Skylar, all of them would be doomed. After all, Skylar wasn’t under the Demon Seal Alliance’s authority. Even if he killed them, the alliance wouldn’t stand up for them!
After he finished speaking, Abel led the way, charging toward the Dead Sea. The other Demonic Cultivators followed closely behind him. Like sharp arrows, they shot straight down
from mid-air one after another.
A group of about ten Demonic Cultivators, their auras combined, descended upon the Dead Sea with overwhelming force. They charged at Judith without any hesitation.
Judith had sensed the aura of over a dozen Demonic Cultivators, her eyes filled with disbelief.
She couldn’t understand how these Demonic Cultivators managed to infiltrate the Dead Sea, but now wasn’t the time to dwell on it.
Suddenly, the greatsword on Judith’s back was unsheathed, instantly illuminating the surroundings with a golden light.
Skylar didn’t rush into the Dead Sea immediately. Instead, he hovered in the air, taking in everything that was going on below.
Moreover, he continued to gather demonic aura, then channeled it into the cylindrical pillars.
With Abel in the lead, the dozen Demonic Cultivators attacked Judith.
However, under the complete obstruction of the sword shadow and greatsword, they surprisingly found it difficult to approach.
“The secret scrolls of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect are indeed formidable. Despite our numbers, we can’t even get close.”
Abel furrowed his brows slightly, deftly dodging the onslaught of sword shadows.
“Abel, no matter how powerful the secret scrolls of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect are, they require spiritual energy to sustain. I’m curious to see how long a woman like Judith can hold up alone!”
A Demonic Cultivator shattered a sword shadow with a single palm strike, then followed up with a smug remark.
“Indeed, being a woman, she won’t be able to hold on for too long!”
Abel nodded in response.
The group of Demonic Cultivators relentlessly pursued Judith. The latter was drenched in sweat as she desperately wielded the secret scroll in her hand. One after another, her sword shadows were destroyed, only to reappear rapidly.
Judith’s face had already turned deathly pale. Suddenly, she spurted out a mouthful of blood, which splattered directly onto the secret scroll.
Accompanied by a flash of red light, nine crimson longswords once again flew out from the secret scroll.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
These crimson swords were aimed directly at the Demonic Cultivators.
However, it was clear everyone that Judith’s body was trembling after being pushed to its absolute limit.
“Hurry… Hurry up, I can’t hold on much longer…”
Judith cast a glance at Jared, who was engrossed in carving the array runes.
Jared was well aware of the peril they were in. Yet he knew that their only chance of escape lay in him successfully completing the engraving of the divine markings.
Otherwise, Skylar and the dozen or so Demonic Cultivators would spell doom for them.
At that moment, Jared understood that it wasn’t the time to blindly engage Skylar in battle. The latter was full of cunning tricks, and Jared, unaware of Skylar’s true capabilities, dared not face him head-on.
If he were to lose, there would be no escape given Skylar’s character.
“Judith is actually using her own blood essence. She’s practically throwing her life away!”
Abel was taken aback by the sudden appearance of the crimson longswords.
However, even the reappearance of the nine crimson longswords couldn’t halt the approach of the Demonic Cultivators.
With every crimson sword that was destroyed, Judith’s body would shudder, followed by her spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.
The blood Judith was throwing up increased considerably, and her breath had become alarmingly faint.
The secret scroll she held in her hand no longer shimmered with light, and sword shadows no longer appeared either.
Judith’s clothes were drenched red with fresh blood, making for a gruesome figure.
Unable to fight anymore, she gradually collapsed to the ground, her face pale as a sheet.
