“In his low-attainment state, fighting four at once was already extremely arduous, and these Sacred Hall demons were clearly more powerful than ordinary demons. So in this situation, he had to concentrate his strength—take out one opponent first, thus greatly reducing the pressure! And that choice naturally fell on the black-robed demon She Deng! Dare to pull a double-cross on him? Then you had better be prepared to die! Ye Yu would certainly strike to kill!
But unexpectedly, suddenly, a crisp sound rang out, like shattering glass. At once, She Deng in his palm turned into a handful of flowing sand, slipping through Ye Yu’s fingers. At the same time, his aura completely dissipated!
Ye Yu couldn’t help frowning as he opened his palm to find it utterly empty, and the flowing sand had vanished into the wind.
“Ahem, ahem. I didn’t expect you to possess the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Art? Boy, I’m getting more and more interested in you!”
A cold voice came from behind.
Ye Yu turned his head and saw She Deng, at some indistinct moment, standing atop a distant cloud. But now, his previous composure had vanished; his black cloak was gone, revealing a delicate, almost androgynous face. At the corner of his mouth, bloodstains still remained un-wiped—a sign that during the recent attack, he had not emerged unscathed!
Ye Yu, unwilling to exchange any more idle words, raised his hand again to cast another spell, but the next moment, She Deng’s figure had completely vanished.
Honestly, that guy was genuinely afraid now! If not for the black-sand demon robe he wore moments ago, he would certainly have died without a doubt. But his robe had been shattered; had Ye Yu trapped him, that luck would not have held. So She Deng dared not remain careless; he could only conceal his form entirely, waiting for an opportunity to strike!
And having temporarily lost his attack target, Ye Yu did not despair. “So you want to hide? Then hide all you want!”
He placed both hands before him, forming a strange hand seal. The next second, endless black flames spread from his center, covering ten thousand miles in all directions!
Ghost Immortal Art: Incinerate the Nine Nether!
On the clouds a thousand meters away, a barrier appeared. The tiger demon Wu Xing and elephant demons Zhen Yue and Man Shan immediately combined their efforts to resist the incoming black waves of flame!
Honestly, they had never imagined that this mission would be so troublesome! A mere Sheep Demon at the Demon Lord realm had driven them to such a predicament.
Zhen Yue grunted, “Brothers, don’t slack off; I’m finding this hard to withstand.”
Wu Xing’s face twisted viciously: “Who the hell’s ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) slacking? I’m also almost overwhelmed!”
Although Man Shan said nothing, the pained expression on his face said it all.
Just then, She Deng appeared out of nowhere, raising his hand to infuse the barrier with demonic power. His arrival abruptly relieved the pressure on Wu Xing, Man Shan, and Zhen Yue—only by combining the four Demon King auras did they finally succeed in blocking the Incinerate the Nine Nether assault!
Wu Xing said in a low voice, “This guy is too abnormal! He even knows ghost arts—it’s unbelievable!”
Man Shan exhaled a foul breath: “What’s most intolerable is the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Art! Rumor has it this is the top cultivation technique in the demon realm; not only can it manifest a ten-thousand-zhang Dharma form, but it even enhances the sorcery! That black flame just now was proof enough—it was taxing even the four of us!”
She Deng said coldly, “Then let us unite to kill him, seize his soul, and strive to obtain the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Art!”
Zhen Yue shook his head: “Not yet. I think that while combining our four Demon King powers might indeed kill this brat, there would inevitably be casualties. Rather than clash head-on now, we should wait a moment. The Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Art cannot run indefinitely; when his demonic power is exhausted and he returns to normal, only then can we easily subdue him. Therefore, I propose that three of us hold him here, while the last goes and brings Nangong Jingtang out of the hall! After all, we must complete the mission assigned from above!”
At these words, She Deng, Man Shan, and the others all found it reasonable! Wu Xing spoke, “There are many arrays outside the hall; leave the task of retrieving Nangong Jingtang to me! I’m fastest at dismantling arrays!” The other three demons all nodded in agreement. Before they could say another word, everyone’s expressions changed suddenly as they scattered and retreated! The next second, a gigantic palm came crashing down!
Watching the scattering streaks of light, Ye Yu said coldly, “Cowering around—what a disgrace! You’re supposed to be Demon Kings of the Sacred Hall, and this is your level?”
Zhen Yue and Man Shan landed on the ground, looked up at Ye Yu’s ten-thousand-zhang Dharma form, and shouted angrily, “Boy, do you really think you’re invincible?” As soon as they spoke, they clasped their hands together! The next second, a giant elephant phantom appeared. Both Zhen Yue and Man Shan solidified gigantic Dharma forms, nearly ten-thousand-zhang tall.
Though they appeared only half a head shorter than Ye Yu, in reality, their corporeal solidity was vastly superior. Ye Yu could say without hesitation that their bodies were paper-thin in comparison. Thus, when facing the charges of Zhen Yue and Man Shan, he felt no fear; instead, he charged forward. But just as they were about to collide—
She Deng suddenly appeared before Ye Yu; his slight form erupted with immense power! A pair of vertical-pupil specters materialized behind him, causing Ye Yu’s legs to become largely petrified, stalling his momentum. And the petrification continued creeping upward at a visible rate. This gave Zhen Yue and Man Shan the chance they needed; one on each side, they seized Ye Yu’s arms. He tried to shake them off, but the petrification had reached his waist, and he couldn’t muster much strength.
As Ye Yu pondered how to break free, his expression suddenly changed, and he whipped his head around. He saw the tiger demon had reached the exterior of the hall and successfully shattered an array barrier!
“Damn! So you Demon Kings are resorting to tactics now?” Though the hall’s perimeter was guarded by hundreds of array barriers, with Nangong Jingtang’s safety at stake, Ye Yu dared not delay; he struggled to break his bonds but was held fast by the three Demon Kings.
And at this critical moment, a figure Ye Yu never expected appeared!
