Chapter 609: Timely Rescue
The siege of over a dozen Heavenly Demons placed Li Yi in unprecedented peril.
Such an attack was enough to blast him into nothingness. Even with the blood of a god, even with dual cultivation of multiple methods, it was all useless. The only thing he could rely on now was the Red Chi Chi Yu Zi Jin Armor on his body.
He hoped this Dao artifact could protect his life.
However, at this very moment, the Red Chi Chi Yu Zi Jin Armor, which had been churning with red cloud light and ringing with the cries of a spirit bird, suddenly had a five-colored radiance appear. This five-colored radiance appeared before his eyes like a barrier.
This five-colored barrier looked very fragile and thin, but in reality, it was unimaginably tough.
Wave after wave of Heavenly Demon attacks arrived, yet they failed to shatter this five-colored barrier, only causing ripples to spread across it, while Li Yi, who was protected, remained completely unharmed.
Such a scene fell into the eyes of the other Heavenly Demons, and each of them revealed an expression of disbelief.
"How is this possible? He actually didn't die. With so many of us Heavenly Demons joining forces, how did he block the attack?"
"Such a method is definitely not something this human evolver could possess. He must have used some kind of trump card. No need to pay attention; he can't hold on like this for long. Kill him quickly and reclaim the Precious Moon Bow and Golden Crow arrows."
"The situation seems a bit wrong. The other side's people seem to have come to support."
These Heavenly Demons exchanged words rapidly. Subsequently, a Heavenly Demon suddenly perceived a familiar and powerful aura appearing within their range of perception. They recognized this aura.
It was the aura of a top-tier expert from Earth. They had seen this top-tier expert cross hands with a Great Demon, and the scale of that momentum was simply heart-palpitating.
Li Yi also realized at this moment that this five-colored radiance likely came from Old Daoist Wu. He practiced the Five-Colored Luo Tian Great Art and was extremely exquisite in his use of five-colored Qi.
"Is it Old Daoist Wu who has come?"
He immediately looked toward the four directions of heaven and earth, only to see that at some point, five-colored radiance was shining in the firmament, and the heavens and earth were steaming with rosy light. Amidst this colorful world, a middle-aged man in a suit stood in mid-air.
This person was none other than Old Daoist Wu, who had arrived just in time. But on Earth, his name was Wu Yong.
"Fortunately, I arrived in time, otherwise something really would have gone wrong. Why are these Heavenly Demons from the Demon God Realm so reckless today?" Old Daoist Wu felt slightly relieved to see that Li Yi was unharmed.
But immediately, he felt a bit puzzled.
What matter was worth over a dozen Heavenly Demons from the Demon God Realm joining forces?
"Forget it, don't think about that much. Let's solve these Heavenly Demons first." Old Daoist Wu did not dwell on it. Since he had already shown himself, he naturally would not let these Heavenly Demons run wild on the defensive line.
Usually, it was precisely because he was sitting here that these Heavenly Demons dared not easily cross the boundary.
Subsequently, he pointed a finger, and light intertwined, transforming at this moment into the shape of a precious sword. This sword's light was brilliant, yet it carried a terrifying killing intent. Just by appearing, it seemed as if it could easily tear the firmament apart.
"Five-Colored Divine Sword, go!"
Old Daoist Wu flicked the Five-Colored Divine Sword, and the precious sword flew out at an incredible speed, slashing through the firmament and killing toward the Heavenly Demons in an instant.
A Heavenly Demon perceived this fatal danger and knew that he was no match for the opponent's expert, so he immediately gave up pursuing Li Yi and turned to flee without a word. But he hadn't flown far.
Accompanied by a flash of five-colored radiance, that Heavenly Demon's head was instantly slashed off.
Fresh blood sprayed.
Subsequently, the Heavenly Demon revealed his true form, and the massive headless corpse fell from the high sky.
A powerful Heavenly Demon was thus silently slashed to death directly, without even the power to resist.
This was the gap in realm.
Without the strength of a Great Demon, these people could not hope to survive a single move in Old Daoist Wu's hands. Moreover, the current Old Daoist Wu was no longer what he used to be. After coming to Earth, not only had his strength recovered to its peak, but he had also dual-cultivated the Immortal Cultivation Method.
Although Old Daoist Wu was in the Three-Flower Realm and had only bloomed one flower, his combat strength was far stronger than when he was in the End-of-Law cultivation world.
The Five-Colored Divine Sword circled and danced in mid-air, not collapsing or disappearing, but flying toward another Heavenly Demon.
"Quick, retreat! The opponent's Great Demon-level expert has been dispatched. We are no match. If we continue to forcibly kill this human evolver, we will all die here. Don't hesitate, leave immediately."
A Heavenly Demon roared. He was very rational and knew that killing Li Yi was already impossible, because the opponent's expert could kill them all within a moment.
Moreover, with such an expert protecting him, Li Yi could not be killed.
The other Heavenly Demons also understood that the general trend had gone. They dispersed and fled without hesitation, because only in this way would they not be wiped out in one net.
But retreating at this moment undoubtedly meant paying a huge price.
Very quickly, the second Heavenly Demon was pierced through by the Five-Colored Divine Sword. Although this Heavenly Demon erupted with vigorous demonic power and countless ancient Dao marks intertwined, attempting to block this strike, it was still useless. This was an attack from an expert of the Three-Flower Realm; how could he possibly block it?
Accompanied by the death of the second Heavenly Demon, the Five-Colored Divine Sword sought out a third Heavenly Demon again.
However, these Heavenly Demons were indeed battle-hardened. Upon realizing they were no match, their speed of retreat was very fast, without the slightest hesitation.
Although this approach was indeed very good, they still underestimated Old Daoist Wu.
The next moment,
they discovered a five-colored great web appearing before them. This great web was somewhat familiar, similar to the means they had used to trap Li Yi before. But this time, Li Yi was not the bird in the cage; they had instead become the fish on the chopping block.
The remaining Heavenly Demons immediately attempted to blast open this five-colored great web, but this great web was even sturdier than the one woven from their Dao marks. Even with a full-force strike from a Heavenly Demon, only a little damage was done, which was not enough to forcibly tear open this five-colored great web and escape.
"You want to escape after entering my Heaven-Net?" Old Daoist Wu controlled the Five-Colored Divine Sword at this moment, slashing off the head of another Heavenly Demon again. In just a moment's effort, five Heavenly Demons had perished.
The remaining Heavenly Demons were both shocked and angry. They hadn't expected that today, not only would they fail to kill, but they would be blocked by the opponent instead.
If all twelve Heavenly Demons were to perish, this would undoubtedly be a huge blow to the Demon God Realm's defensive line. After all, the number of Great Demons was limited, and there weren't many Heavenly Demon experts; they couldn't afford such losses.
!
And just as Old Daoist Wu intended to annihilate the remaining Heavenly Demons,
suddenly,
he felt something and suddenly raised his head to look toward the direction of the Demon God Realm.
An astonishing demonic Qi rolled over like a long dragon. Its momentum was so fierce that it was heart-palpitating, and after this demonic Qi appeared, it tore a gap in the five-colored great web in just an instant.
"Retreat."
A voice came from within that astonishing demonic Qi.
Seeing this scene, the remaining Heavenly Demons were instantly ecstatic.
A path to life had appeared.
A Great Demon had taken action, forcibly creating an opportunity for them to escape.
"Quick, go!" The Heavenly Demons rushed toward that gap one after another.
"A Great Demon from the Demon God Realm has taken action." Seeing this scene, Li Yi secretly sighed in regret.
With a Great Demon there to receive them, Old Daoist Wu would likely find it difficult to wipe them all out.
Old Daoist Wu frowned at this moment. He also understood that today, he could not keep all these Heavenly Demons here. However, even if they wanted to leave, they wouldn't be able to do so without paying a heavy price. Immediately, he controlled the Five-Colored Divine Sword to pursue relentlessly, attempting to slash off a few more Heavenly Demons before they left this place.
"Wu Yong, you simply have no regard for our Demon God Realm. Knowing that I have arrived in person, you still dare to kill my subordinates?" A violent shout came from within the rolling demonic Qi, followed by a golden figure breaking through the air.
Suddenly, the heavens and earth shook, and a purple-gold mixed-iron staff struck over, shattering the Five-Colored Divine Sword in an instant and forcibly protecting the other Heavenly Demons.
At this moment,
a Great Demon wearing armor, with golden hair all over his body, resembling both human and ape, stood in the firmament. He held a purple-gold mixed-iron staff, and his whole body exuded a terrifying aura.
"Great Demon, Yuan Cang."
Old Daoist Wu's eyes narrowed slightly. He clearly recognized this Great Demon. After all, he hadn't spent a short time on the defensive line, and he had an impression of all the Great Demons he had crossed hands with. Among them, this Yuan Cang was the most special, because he was the strongest among the Great Demons he had encountered.
"Yuan Cang, keep your subordinates in check. Don't cross the boundary at every turn. Haven't you learned your lesson today after losing so many Heavenly Demons? If you continue to fight, I really worry that you will all die out, and in the end, your territory will be swallowed by other Demon Kings."
"If you are sensible, take your subordinates and roll back to the Demon God Realm. Don't come here to make trouble."
He scolded them.
Great Demon Yuan Cang's face twitched at this moment, and he couldn't help but grip the purple-gold mixed-iron staff in his hand tightly.
He really wanted to knock Wu Yong to death with one strike of the staff.
