Chapter 484: Chapter 403 Subduing Chapter 484: Chapter 403 Subduing As the battle within the Sea and Sky Realm unfolded, in no time, three star beasts had already died, and five were injured.

Just as the Royal Court Naga, transformed by Ruan Ruan, swung its blade to pierce through one of the Gray Thunder Bulls, a massive black palm suddenly appeared behind them. With a swift motion, the palm grasped both the Gray Thunder Bull and Ruan Ruan in its grip.

“Boom!”

The black palm’s five fingers clenched, crushing both the Gray Thunder Bull and Ruan Ruan together.

The other three clones of Ruan Ruan trembled in unison, their faces paling as they looked back in shock.

Not far away, the Ink Qilin retracted its right claw. It was the power of its single strike!

Qilin Arm·Sky Bursting Palm!

“What a powerful blow. Even the Still Water Armor couldn’t withstand it!”

“Did it preemptively prepare, having sensed the attack on the Gray Thunder Bull?”

The clones of Ruan Ruan felt the backlash, and their aura slightly diminished.

The Ink Qilin stomped and charged towards the nearest Ruan Ruan clone again.

Ruan Ruan immediately darted aside, manipulating the Sea and Sky Realm. It combined inverted domain manipulation and cancellations, attempting to interfere with the pursuit of the Ink Qilin.

However, the Ink Qilin always managed to pause briefly after each change in direction by Ruan Ruan, then accurately continued the chase.

As the chase persisted, the Ink Qilin’s pauses grew shorter, and its speed increased. Within minutes, it was about to catch up to Ruan Ruan!

“This big brute, has it already adapted to the Sea and Sky Realm so quickly?!”

Ruan Ruan’s heart filled with uncertainty, knowing that the opponent had grasped the key to the Sea and Sky Realm.

There were no flawless divine skills. Every skill had its vulnerabilities, and the forward-reverse transitions of the Sea and Sky Realm were not without telltale signs.

These signs lay within the few waterflow ribbons slowly swirling around Ruan Ruan.

These ribbons connected and controlled the Sea and Sky Realm, providing support with Star Power.

If the water on the ribbons flowed clockwise, it was forward.

If the water on the ribbons flowed counterclockwise, it was backward.

But even if one discovered this, it did not completely neutralize the inversion effect of the Sea and Sky Realm.

During battle, it was instinct to defend where attacked and to chase where the enemy fled. Overcoming this instinct required time to think and calculate, which delayed reaction and decision-making.

This was the true power of the Sea and Sky Realm!

Yet at this moment, despite the Ink Qilin not appearing particularly intelligent,

Its powerful combat talent had already integrated the changes in Ruan Ruan’s water ribbons with its actions, establishing a new instinct within such a short period!

“This combat talent is astounding. No wonder it is a legend from the ancient times of the Ink Qilin.”

Above the Sea and Sky Realm, Su Yuan watched this scene with considerable admiration.

“However, at this rate, Ruan Ruan might find it hard to hold on.”

Though the Sea and Sky Realm was adept at handling group battles, opposing so many foes simultaneously would still split Ruan Ruan’s strength.

Su Yuan raised a hand, and a red light shot out from his body.

“Demon Soul, go.” Su Yuan added after a moment’s thought, “For now… don’t kill it.”

“Alright!”

The Demon Soul grinned, transforming into a demon saber, then plunged into the Sea and Sky Realm.

Within the Sea and Sky Realm, the Ink Qilin had just knocked back one of Ruan Ruan’s Still Water Armor clones. As it was about to pursue, a shadow of purple flame dashed over, slashing the Ink Qilin with a blade.

The powerful force and sharp attack tore a long gash in the Ink Qilin, sending it staggering backward.

“Hey, a Qilin Star Beast, huh? No wonder you’re such a high-level, combat-savvy Qilin species, adapting so quickly.” The Demon Soul’s red eyes scrutinized the Ink Qilin, chuckling softly, “Even I took nearly half a month to adapt to this inverted domain.”

Ruan Ruan let out a long breath upon seeing the Demon Soul’s arrival.

Naturally, the Ink Qilin was furious. Just when it had almost captured the target that had been toying with it for so long, it was abruptly blocked by the Demon Soul.

“Roar!!”

The Ink Qilin roared in anger and charged again.

The Demon Soul showed no fear, purple flames surging around it as it rushed to meet the attack…

Su Yuan glanced down briefly, then withdrew his gaze, focusing on extracting the Star Vein.

While the Ink Qilin could establish new instincts to overcome the Sea and Sky Realm’s effects, the other star beasts could not.

With Ruan Ruan and the equally adapted Demon Soul working together, resolving the star beasts inside was not an issue.

Surrounding the Five Mountains, more and more star beasts sensing the abnormality continuously approached.

Those at the Lower Three Levels only dared to watch from afar, while those at the Shining Star Level tried to bypass the Sea and Sky Realm to stop Su Yuan.

Su Yuan remained expressionless, casually wielding the Void Splitting Monument Hand, slashing black lines to kill the approaching star beasts until none dared step forward.

On the eastern slope of the Five Mountains, three figures silently watched the scene.

After a few glances, the middle-aged man in a green robe turned and said, “Forget it. Let’s leave.”

The yellow-haired man beside him asked, “Guardian Yan, this is a Wolf Vein. Are we really just giving up?”

“That one should be Great Flame’s Sky Patrol Angel, right?” The last one, a high-ponytail woman, raised an eyebrow, “I agree it’s best not to provoke.”

The yellow-haired man frowned, “Even if it’s a Sky Patrol Angel, competing for the Star Vein is normal. Besides, Great Flame is far from us. What is there to fear?”

Saying this, the yellow-haired man looked again at the middle-aged man.
