Mira waved her hand, and the cracked ice dome above her head shattered into countless ice shards. She locked onto all the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators and Rank 7 beasts, then launched those shards at them!

She wasn't trying to kill them with that attack; she just wanted to see what would happen.

"Ugh!"

"Ack! Fuck! My hand!"

"Dammit! I could barely react in time!"

Some of the stronger and more sensitive cultivators could react in time and survived, albeit barely, while the rest were left with holes through their bodies, lost limbs, or worse.

"Don't let up the pressure! She's unprotected right now!" One of the Soul Transformation Realm men shouted, unknowingly taking charge of the large crowd.

Mira glanced at the man and figured he would be one of the more difficult opponents in this fight, but she chose not to attack him right now.

'They can't lose their morale so early.' Mira smirked inwardly, curious how the man would control this large group of unrelated individuals. 'Struggle. Struggle with all your might and show me what a cultivator is truly capable of.'

The man who had taken charge kept launching attacks at Mira, but he spared a part of his mind to give orders and organize the rest of the people.

"Those who have a Fire or Lightning Affinity, come forward! You will be our main attackers!"

"Anyone with a Wind Affinity will back them up!"

"Those with a Water and Earth Affinity will focus on healing and protecting us from her attacks!"

"If you have an affinity other than those five, then try and support us while looking for an opportunity to take her down!"

"Lastly, if you have any soul techniques, spare no effort and go all out! We won't be able to win this battle if we hold back now!"

"Yes, sir!!"

The people immediately put his words into action. Those with a Fire and Lightning affinity flew ahead of the others and floated directly above Mira. Those with Earth affinities teamed up right next to them, offering protection.

Everyone else re-arranged themselves into a position that suited their affinity and fighting style better.

Mira nodded, impressed by how quickly they assessed the situation and understood their individual roles in all of it.

'It seems that man holds a leadership position in whatever group or Sect he comes from.' Mika speculated. She almost felt it was a pity to kill such a man.

Almost.

Without the 'leader' needing to say the word, the fire and lightning affinity cultivators prepared their techniques and launched them at her!

From afar, despite everyone using their own unique attacks, it looked like a massive ball of fire and lightning was falling on top of Mira. Then, to make things worse, an intense wind picked up and turned that ball into a colossal tornado!

Mira was a little interested in what just happened as she could tell that their attacks were amplified multiple times over just by fusing their powers together, even if it wasn't perfect.

However, she wasn't worried about such an attack at all.

Holding out her hand, a tiny, dense black ball formed in her hand. Spinning faster and faster, the black ball, or her Singularity Strike, sucked in all the surrounding light.

Once it reached a satisfying level, Mira flicked the Singularity Strike at the elemental tornado approaching her.

The suction force from the mini blackhole was too much for the tornado to handle, and it quickly sucked in the tornado like it was nothing! Within seconds, the attacks from dozens of people vanished into thin air, leaving behind a black ball around the size of a thumb.

"What?!"

"H-How is that possible??"

"A-All those attacks… Gone… Gone just like that!"

"Wait, what is that thing in the mid-AHHHH! Save me!!"

Mira's Singularity Strike wasn't over yet, as anyone near it lost control of their bodies and was dragged toward it. They barely had time to scream before they were crushed under the weight of the mini black hole, turning into a speck of their former selves.

The only ones who could resist were those who were stronger and further away. Anyone near its vicinity was slaughtered without even leaving behind a corpse. They died a very quick but excruciating death as they were literally crushed to a fine point under their own weight.

Among the group, only a few remained in the Nascent Soul Realm and the remainder in the Soul Transformation Realm.

"Fuck! How is this demoness so strong?! She's clearly only in the Nascent Soul Realm! How can she kill all of us like we're nothing more than ants?!" The man who had taken charge now began to panic.

His name was Zhou Yuan, an Elder of the Golden Blossom Sect. While they were just a 2nd rate Sect, not comparable to the likes of the Battle Maiden Sect or anything like that, they were well known throughout their territory.

Zhou Yuan wasn't incredibly talented, but he managed to reach the 5th Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm, proving that he was still above most people.

Unfortunately, due to his talent, he would find it incredibly difficult to reach the 6th, 7th, 8th, or 9th Stages. The Mortal Transformation Realm was completely out of reach for him, as unless he found a heaven-defying treasure, he'd be forever stuck in the Soul Transformation Realm.

Like any cultivator who had reached their limit, he sought to find a way to break through it.

However, just as he was beginning to despair that he would never find a way to break past that wall, he sensed the dense fluctuations of something that seemed oddly similar to a natural treasure forming.

Thus, he came rushing over here in a hurry, hoping to find something that could allow him to keep cultivation, but… but…

'What the hell is this?!'

He never expected to encounter a psychopath instead of a treasure. Like the rest of the people around him, he was beginning to regret his decision of ever leaving his Sect.

'I should've just been happy with my current power. Why did I have to come out looking for trouble??' He cursed his past self for making such a stupid decision, but unfortunately, there wasn't anything he could do now that he was here.

Suddenly, the demon in the shape of a fox-woman turned to him and released a predatory grin, showing off her canines.

Just from that glance alone, he shivered uncontrollably as he felt his mind go numb. As a Soul Transformation Realm elder, his senses were higher than normal people's, and he could feel a deep-rooted malice in those crimson eyes.

'J-Just, how many people has this monster killed?' Zhou Yuan didn't even consider her a demon anymore, as even demons weren't as terrifying as her!

'D-Dammit!' He gritted his teeth and cursed again, attempting to regain his sanity, 'I can't let this monster kill any more people than it already has! Even if I have to burn my soul, I'll do everything I can to take it down!'

He glanced around, looking at his temporary teammates, and his mind firmed. Although he didn't know any of these people, many of whom might have suspicious personalities, they were infinitely better than this human-shaped monster before him!

Suddenly, he saw Mira pull out her scythe, disappear from her position, and dash toward the nearest person.

Zhou Yuan didn't even have time to react or stop her before the person was cut in half!

"Stop it, you monster! Stop killing these innocent people!" Zhou Yuan's eyes turned bloodshot, and he rushed at Mira with his sword.

However, Mira didn't even spare him a glance as she moved on to the next person. In the blink of an eye, she appeared before another Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, slashing her scythe and splitting him in two.

The force behind that attack was so high that it continued another hundred meters, cutting apart anything that got in its way, including other people and beasts.

She didn't stop there and continued to slaughter the rest of the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. They ranged from the 1st Stage to the 9th, but none of them were able to last more than a split second against Mira.

A few of the 9th Stage cultivators managed to run a few meters away, but they were cut down all the same.

The other Soul Transformation Realm people tried to stop Mira's killing spree, but her attacks were so fast and random that they couldn't guess who she would go for next.

Thus, within a few seconds, Mira had killed everyone under the Soul Transformation Realm, confirming that her strength had surpassed the Nascent Soul Realm.

Perhaps only a supreme genius like Ryuu or someone on his level could compete with her in the same Realm, but even then, she doubted he could. Unless he obtained a serious power-up the next time they met.

A smile spread across Mira's face as she realized that the 'weaklings' were gone.

"Now, it's time to move on to the main event!"
