Chapter 359: A Righteous Group Beating
```
The sound wasn't very loud, yet it clearly reached the ears of everyone present.
As the crowd turned, they saw in the distant sky a headless giant white bone bird, the size of a small mountain, soaring high above, with rolling magical clouds trampled beneath its feet.
Atop the bony ridge that rose from the giant bird's spine, a young man in black looked coldly in the direction of Soul Butterfly.
Soul Butterfly turned her head and looked at Chen Xing with surprise and delight.
"You really came?"
"I've really missed you."
As Soul Butterfly's chilling voice fell, the next second, she disappeared from the spot.
When she had left the Dark Realm before, she still had old wounds, and her strength had only just recovered to the first step of Ascension.
Therefore, faced with Qiu Shangqing's obstruction, she chose to retreat, but now some time had passed, and with the support from Fentian Giant City,
her realm had already recovered to the third step of Ascension.
In this vast world, there was nowhere she couldn't go.
Even faced with a true Seal Lord, she had the confidence to escape,
unless she were besieged by a group of Seal Lords, and by chance, there was also a treasure that could restrain her spatial abilities.
But what were the odds of such a coincidence?
Voids formed cracks, spiderweb-like fissures spreading out widely.
It was as if someone had punched hard against a transparent glass wall.
The vast spiderweb spread, enveloping both Chen Xing and his Demon Eagle within it.
The Demon Eagle snorted coldly, and the Corrosion Principle unfolded, turning into a large swath of green fog that covered both Chen Xing and itself.
The shaking space touched the corroding fog, and some kind of equilibrium was reached between them.
Soul Butterfly frowned; she was stunned for a moment.
Why?
She was now at the third step of Ascension, and he had just broken through to recover to Ascension, hadn't he?
Could it be that he was also at the third step of Ascension?
This time Soul Butterfly observed more closely and realized that the opponent's Law could indeed stand toe-to-toe with her own Space Law.
Its Corrosion Principle was also at the third level.
No, they couldn't continue to confront each other with Laws.
Confrontation with Laws was the simplest and most brutal way to use them.
It was akin to letting two pieces of metal of the same weight crash against each other, the crudest method of use.
"Three-tailed Gecko, act now!" Soul Butterfly's mind tensed, recalling that there was another Ascendant from Great Xia hiding among those reporters who hadn't made a move yet.
Because she discovered that her Law had astonishingly failed to suppress the opponent's Law.
They needed to switch tactics.
To use skills within the Law.
It was in this aspect that her Space Law had a greater advantage.
From a distant hill, the ground burst open, and the Three-tailed Gecko shot out explosively.
Behind it, three slender tails spanned a distance of several thousand yards, tightly ensnaring the Demon Eagle, with the earthy yellow power of petrification extending along the tails.
The parts of the Demon Eagle that came in contact with the gecko began to petrify...
This was precisely the Gecko's Law, petrification.
The Demon Eagle was not surprised by the appearance of the Gecko, as it had seen them in the video before.
Chen Xing was preparing to summon the Light Dragon Legion, when a man of short stature but extraordinary demeanor among the reporters below,
wearing a reporter's badge around his neck,
their gazes met in the void.
The man smiled slightly.
Then, before everyone's eyes, he threw something out.
The egg-like object exploded in mid-air.
With a flash of purple light,
a giant inverted bowl appeared within a hundred miles radius, and all the fissures that had formed were smoothened.
Soul Butterfly's expression seized.
What was this?
If the surrounding space before was like tofu, where a hole could easily be poked through with a little force,
now, the surrounding space had turned into hard stone.
With her strength, it was impossible to penetrate the void all around.
Her earlier guess had turned out to be true.
Then, in less than a few seconds, from the distant mountains,
one powerful breath after another pierced the heavens.
"Dragon Venerable!"
"Crocodile Venerable!"
In addition to these two familiar figures, there were also two other presences that were unfamiliar, but their aura was also exceptionally strong.
Besides those six, Great Xia actually had hidden Ascendants!
The reporters couldn't help exclaiming; some of the quicker reacting ones immediately took out their cameras and started shooting frantically.
This was a rare piece of big news; they had a feeling that what was to unfold today might become a turning point in the upcoming war!
Soul Butterfly's movements noticeably slowed down for a moment, as her guess had indeed become a reality.
Adding the Demon Eagle, there were a total of five Ascendants.

Her side only had two, two against five...
Actually, it wasn't impossible, if the other side consisted of five first or second step Ascendants, she could easily break them down one by one with techniques.
But now she could sense that none of the five beings on the opposite side had a weak aura; they weren't Ascension newbies.
Furthermore, the surrounding space was stable, greatly weakening the power of spatial attribute skills.
Three of the auras didn't fall short of her own in the slightest, all at the third step of existence.
Soul Butterfly's mind whirred rapidly as she realized she had never been so intelligent before; her compound eyes glanced subtly at the Three-tailed Gecko.
The three tails that were wrapped around the Demon Eagle and as taut as strings suddenly exploded.
The powerful impact made the Gecko step back several paces.
Only the broken tails remained twisted around the Demon Eagle's bones, trembling slightly.
This stupid gecko, so scared it couldn't even act like a gecko.
If she could sacrifice it... there might still be a chance for her to escape.
It was a large target, nearly a hundred meters long, and covered with bulky muscles.
A much bigger target than herself.
Of course, Soul Butterfly knew that she was probably their primary target they wanted to deal with.
After all, she had control over the Space Law, and they had specifically used a treasure this time to try to keep her.
With that thought, Soul Butterfly landed on the Gecko's back.
