However, the unexpected happened.

Xia Liu didn’t speak. With a devilish smile, he directly threw a Sword Qi toward Sage Qingjue.

The Mohe Fire reappeared, and a giant shadow of a Flowing Fire Sword struck out shockingly.

Seeing this, Sage Qingjue spun his longsword, and the Green Lotus Sword Energy howled out.

Boom boom boom!!!

A clash of titans, countless tiny flames scattered.

“Hah!”

Sage Qingjue shouted, and the uncontrolled flames were immediately dispersed.

However, they exploded not far in front of him.

Qingjue didn’t have time to employ a movement technique and was directly blasted back dozens of steps.

Amidst the flames, dust and smoke rose.

The next moment, the dust was cleaved open, and a demonic figure crossed the fire field.

At this moment, Xia Liu couldn’t feel pain at all; he had no sensations as he vented recklessly.

Techniques were not stimulating enough for him.

Only the purest collisions could excite him, making his blood boil.

Clang!

Sage Qingjue raised his sword to clash with Xia Liu.

In the first clash, Qingjue immediately sensed Xia Liu’s mighty force.

The hand gripping the sword was trembling.

“Subduing Demon Seal!”

The Subduing Demon Seal had previously suppressed the demon madness within Xia Liu, so perhaps it could now as well.

Righteous Gang Energy erupted from Qingjue’s body.

As if sensing an extraordinary aura, Xia Liu retreated without a word.

Boom!

Sage Qingjue didn’t miss this opportunity. After condensing his palm, the Righteous Great Hand Seal immediately surged forth.

Determined to pull Xia Liu back.

However, Xia Liu’s reaction was too swift.

In an instant of retreat, the Energy Depleted to Mystic Yellow Peerless Technique appeared.

A formidable Demon Might manifested imposingly, a dark Great Handprint clashed with the Subduing Demon Seal.

But a miraculous scene appeared.

The dark Great Handprint shattered instantly.

The Subduing Demon Seal, emitting pure light, charged towards Xia Liu.

“Can it succeed?”

Seeing this, Liu Hong clasped his hands together.

He was more anxious about Xia Liu than Liu Mingyue.

Because he knew if Xia Liu caused havoc, the outcome would be very tragic.

If the Huaxia Cultivator Realm lost such a genius, it would truly be a sorrow.

Under the gaze of many, Xia Liu spread his palms angrily; the Taiyi Sect-Protecting Move reemerged in the world!

Skipping the Combat Rotation Stellar Shift Technique, Xia Liu directly employed the Extreme of Limitless.

In an instant, a dark Heaven and Earth Totem flickered out.

Rumble!!!

At the moment of engagement, the world seemed to tremble.

The arena shattered in an instant, and the surroundings sank several meters.

After the dust settled, the Heaven and Earth Totem shattered, and Xia Liu still stood behind the Extreme of Limitless.

A world-shocking strike failed to suppress Xia Liu!

To Qingjue, this was not unexpected.

Xia Liu already possessed many powerful Spirit Arts.

Even with all his might, wielding a Demon Path cultivation of the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation, he could easily dissolve it.

Using cultivation to suppress was no longer possible.

“There’s no other way. Mingyue, go and prepare with Qingxiao and the others.”

As Xia Liu once again raised his sword to charge at Sage Qingjue, Liu Hong, from the spectator seats, immediately gave instructions.

“Are we really going to use the Beast Binding Formation?”

Looking at the uncontrollable body, Liu Mingyue’s eyes trembled. She didn’t want Xia Liu to get hurt.

He became like this to save her and those around her.

Now she had become his enemy.

Reluctant, truly reluctant.

If possible, she wanted to trade places with him, embrace evil, and even if she died, she would have no regrets…

“Mingyue, you must go. This is the only way to awaken Xia Liu. If he leaves King’s Canyon, he will die!”

Liu Hong’s expression turned serious.

He wasn’t joking. If Xia Liu succumbed to evil, the world would surely be thrown into chaos, but that time wouldn’t last long.

After all, there are many capable people, and Xia Liu, without awareness, couldn’t possibly withstand everyone.

Moreover, with the situation worsening, some won’t remain passive…

“Understood.”

Liu Mingyue nodded, knowing the severity of the matter.

But deep in her heart, she couldn’t bear it.

The Beast Binding Formation is a third-level formation. Such a formation, employed by a Qi Cultivation fifteenth-level Cultivator, could easily trap and crush a cultivator of the same level.

Because the formation’s power is too immense, Liu Mingyue feared it might hurt Xia Liu.

But in this situation, besides the Beast Binding Formation, there might be no other way to suppress Xia Liu.

“Qingxiao, Qingniao, the four of you, get into position immediately!”

After affirming his daughter’s resolve, Liu Hong immediately orchestrated.

“Yes!”

All four spiritual cultivators nodded in unison, then employed movement techniques, running to several positions of the arena at lightning speed.

Liu Mingyue was not far in front of Liu Hong.

In a flash, Liu Mingyue and Qingniao, along with the others, surrounded the arena.

On the arena, Sage Qingjue and Xia Liu fought intensely.

The back-and-forth between the two erupted into the most exhilarating sword sound howls.

Each sword was icy and bone-piercing, sending shivers down the spines of the spectators.

Each punch was mountain-crushing and earth-splitting, accelerating everyone’s blood flow.

Boom!

The Flowing Fire Sword stood aside, as Xia Liu punched towards Qingjue.

Clang!

The sword blade blocked the Vast Origin Fist, and Sage Qingjue was immediately sent flying out of the arena.

This scene shocked everyone.

Xia Liu’s power was terrifying to such an extent.

If he hadn’t succumbed to evil, perhaps at the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation, he would be the foremost beneath the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Such a monster, what a lamentable sight…

“Daoist Fellow Qingjue, initiate the formation!”

Liu Hong transmitted through Divine Consciousness sound.

“Indeed, the formation must be initiated, or else I’ll die under Xia Liu’s fist.”

Sage Qingjue was filled with lingering fear.

Xia Liu’s capabilities were absolutely terrifying.

Had he not restored his Spiritual Energy earlier, he would have long become a corpse.

Quickly forming the Hand Art, Sage Qingjue’s body slowly ascended.

A strong Divine Sense enveloped the entire arena.

At the same time, the four spiritual cultivators, Qingyun and Liu Mingyue, also took action.

They rapidly condensed seals.

Their internal auras were continuous, only waiting for Sage Qingjue to complete the Array Seal Decree.

“Xia Liu, senior brother apologizes!”

With an apology, the Beast Binding Formation was activated!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!!

After Sage Qingjue completed the seal condensing, countless mournful sounds echoed.

A visible barrier surrounded the arena.

The next moment, a surprising scene appeared.

From the chests of Liu Mingyue, Qingxiao, and the others, a white line extended.

As the five white lines entered the barrier, they surged towards Xia Liu like mad.

In less than a blink of an eye, the five white lines wrapped around five points of Xia Liu.

Both hands, both feet, and the neck!

The white line around the neck was cast by Liu Mingyue.

Feeling the warmth from Xia Liu, Liu Mingyue felt deep sorrow.

But she had no choice; she had to use the Beast Binding Formation.

Otherwise, Xia Liu couldn’t be awakened.

“Roar!”

Sensing the impending crisis, Xia Liu roared angrily.

However, no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t break free from the white lines.

“Give up. This Beast Binding Rope, empowered with Divine Sense and Spiritual Energy through a Secret Technique, cannot be broken by anyone beneath the Foundation Establishment Stage!”
