Chapter 621

Following the successive defeat and death of the five Great Demons.

The Earth defense line, which had almost collapsed, miraculously held firm once again at this moment. As time passed, the Earth Demons and Sky Demons began to retreat continuously. The emergence of this change suddenly excited the evolutionaries who had been struggling to hold on.

The retreat of the Sky Demons was also a matter of necessity, for the Great Demons had already been eliminated by the experts on Earth; if they did not leave, they feared they would not be able to escape later.

Consequently, the originally favorable situation saw a scene of total collapse, like a mountain crumbling.

"The Sky Demons want to retreat? I will go intercept them and, while I'm at it, help save the others." Seeing that the enemy's momentum was gone, Li Yi did not mind pursuing the victory. He was helpless against the Great Demons, but dealing with the Sky Demons was still within his capabilities.

"Be careful." Seeing this, Xuan Yuezi did not stop him, only offering a word of caution.

She could see that it was not difficult for Tai Yi to defeat the Sky Demons. As long as no Great Demons intervened, Tai Yi should have no threat to his life on this battlefield. After all, he was wearing the mid-grade Daoist treasure, the Crimson Feather Purple Gold Armor; even if he couldn't win, self-preservation was not a problem.

"Tai Yi, I have forged a weapon for you; take it to kill the enemy." Seeing this, the Bald Daoist immediately waved his hand, and a long spear tore through the firmament, flying toward him and stopping right before his eyes.

"Good, many thanks, Daoist." Li Yi did not hesitate, immediately grabbing the long spear and imprinting his own soul mark upon it.

Afterwards, he communicated with the artifact spirit and learned some information about this Daoist treasure.

This was a mid-grade Daoist treasure, the Star-Shattering Spear.

This was named by the Bald Daoist. Although the name was quite ordinary, its power was truly not weak; just the act of brandishing it caused divine light and cold gleams to flicker, easily tearing through the long sky.

Li Yi could not help but feel a sense of joy.

He happened to be lacking such a weapon; otherwise, using the Precious Moon Bow and Marquis Wu Jin Arrows every time was simply too extravagant.

Moreover, he only had one Marquis Wu Jin Arrow left; the other one had been picked up by some Sky Demon in the chaos, which was a great pity.

"Let's test the power of this Daoist treasure on a Sky Demon." Li Yi then set his sights on a Sky Demon that was in the process of retreating.

Although this Sky Demon's flight speed was extremely fast, it was still caught up by the Cloud-Stepping and Mist-Riding technique he employed.

"Who?"

That Sky Demon shouted loudly. Sensing the danger, the ancient battle blade in his hand instantly wove together countless Dao marks, and then a vigorous demonic power erupted, transforming into a blade aura that reached the heavens, slashing toward the direction Li Yi had come from.

No matter who had set their sights on him, for a Sky Demon, as long as it was an enemy, they had to withstand his full-force strike.

"Star-Shattering Spear." Li Yi arrived on the clouds and immediately channeled his magic power, raising the long spear in his hand.

Streams of divine light intertwined, and the long spear immediately erupted with the might of a Daoist treasure. These divine lights converged to form a spear tip, which then met the Sky Demon's terrifying blade strike.

Yet, the next moment.

The blade aura, formed by the intertwining of Dao marks and demonic power, was suddenly torn open with a hideous gash. Wherever it passed, the demonic power shattered and the Dao marks dissipated; this strike was actually pierced through by the long spear in Li Yi's hand.

"How is this possible?" The Sky Demon was greatly alarmed, and then he saw the long spear heading straight for him.

The speed was too fast; could he block it?

The Sky Demon had no confidence, but he still swung his blade to parry.

Although the weapons of the Demon God Realm were quite good, how could they compare to a Daoist treasure specifically forged by the Bald Daoist? Moreover, this Daoist treasure in Li Yi's hand had already reached the mid-grade and was primarily used for slaughter.

In an instant.

The great blade in the Sky Demon's hand was struck by the long spear, and then, with a boom, it exploded into fragments.

The long spear took advantage of the momentum to pierce through his chest.

The Sky Demon suffered heavy injuries, vomiting blood in large mouthfuls. Then, with a roar, he immediately withdrew and fled, not daring to fight Li Yi anymore. The gap between their weapons was too great; if he continued to fight, he would surely die.

To resist this person, only a joint siege by several Sky Demons might be possible.

"What a fine Star-Shattering Spear." Seeing this scene, Li Yi could not help but offer a word of praise.

With the enhancement of this weapon, killing a Sky Demon would no longer be as difficult and arduous as before.

Facing the fleeing Sky Demon, he immediately extended his finger, and a brilliant light condensed upon it.

"Dividing the River into Land."

A top-tier killing Daoist technique was unleashed.

Under normal circumstances, this Sky Demon could have avoided this strike, or even used his demonic power to resist "Dividing the River into Land" head-on. But now, he was injured, and in his panic, he was only concerned with fleeing, so he did not defend against this strike.

In an instant.

This Sky Demon had his body severed, and at the same time, several Earth Demons nearby were also affected by this Daoist technique and perished on the spot.

"Not bad, the Daoist treasure I forged is indeed easy to use." Seeing this scene, the Bald Daoist could not help but nod: "After coming to Earth, one should forge more of these killing Daoist treasures; those messy, useless Daoist treasures should be discarded."

He also adapted to local conditions, knowing that battles and slaughter were frequent on Earth. If he were to forge Daoist treasures like robes, gourds, or whisks, it would be a waste of heavenly materials; he had to forge long spears, blades, swords, and armor for combat.

After Li Yi killed a Sky Demon, he realized something.

He looked around and did not know when the others had disappeared from the defense line he was responsible for.

Su Mu, as well as Tao Sheng, Pan Hongjie, and Lu Yi, had already vanished.

He did not know if they were fighting enemies elsewhere or if they had already died in this battle.

"Let's look for them. Now that my crisis is resolved, it's best to save them if I can." With this thought, Li Yi immediately rode the clouds and left.

The several Three-Flower Realm experts did not follow; as long as there were no Great Demons on the battlefield, they were not worried about Li Yi meeting with an accident.

Li Yi circled the vicinity of the defense line.

Finally, he found Su Mu at a place one hundred kilometers away.

At this moment, Su Mu was covered in blood, and the nano-suit on her body was shattered to the point where it could not be repaired, revealing her pale skin. If it weren't for the astonishing physique of an evolutionary, combined with her dual cultivation of multiple methods and immense potential, she would have already perished.

And her opponents were not very strong, just three Earth Demons.

If Su Mu were in good condition, she could completely kill these three Earth Demons, but she was severely injured, seemingly struck by a Sky Demon, which resulted in her being unable to deal with the Earth Demons now.

"The strength of an Earth Demon is equivalent to the Spirit God Realm of an evolutionary, but because evolutionaries cultivate multiple methods, Earth Demons are generally no match for them. The strength of a Sky Demon is equivalent to the Spirit Tribulation Realm, but the methods cultivated by evolutionaries on Earth have not reached the Spirit Tribulation Realm, so they are at a disadvantage against Sky Demons. If one day the cultivated methods can also reach the Spirit Tribulation Realm, then Sky Demons will no longer be a match for evolutionaries."

Li Yi now had a rough classification of the realms and strengths of the Demon God Realm.

However, thoughts were thoughts, but his actions were not slow at all.

With a wave of his hand, a silver lightning bolt carrying the power of a dragon and tiger descended from the firmament, then split into three, heading toward the three Earth Demons respectively.

Boom!

Thunder roared and dragons and tigers bellowed.

These three Earth Demons, who were in the middle of besieging Su Mu, did not even have time to react before they were instantly struck. Then, each of them fell to the ground heavily injured, their bodies torn and bloody.

Facing this sudden scene, Su Mu was stunned for a moment, then looked fiercely toward the direction from which the attack came.

But the next moment, she saw a person manipulating lightning, striking at the three Earth Demons again.

With the second strike, the three Earth Demons had no power to resist and were actually struck dead on the spot.

"Such tenacious vitality." Li Yi could not help but mutter, then flew toward Su Mu.

"Li Yi, is it you? That's great, you're still alive."

Seeing this, Su Mu could not help but heave a sigh of relief: "How is the situation on the defense line? I'm very sorry, I really couldn't help much. After being struck by a Sky Demon, I was severely injured, and I could barely even deal with these Earth Demons; I was almost besieged to death."

"Professor Li Yue and Tang Yi from the Golden Academy came to support. They killed five Great Demons and stabilized the collapsing defense line. The Sky Demons saw that the situation was not right and began to retreat. I took the opportunity to hurry to the vicinity of the defense line to search and see how you all were."

Li Yi's expression was somewhat surprised; he did not expect that Su Mu's first concern was for his safety and the safety of the defense line.

But this was also normal.

If even an expert like Li Yi had died and the defense line had collapsed, that would be truly desperate. Conversely, an evolutionary like Su Mu, who could not influence the situation on the battlefield, seemed not as important.

"That's good."

Su Mu said with relief at this moment: "Fortunately, the support arrived in time, otherwise Earth would have been invaded by the Demon God Realm. I'm fine now, I won't die, but I saw Pan Hongjie killed by an Earth Demon, Lu Yi was forced to abandon his physical body and his soul fled across dimensions, and I didn't see Tao Sheng; I don't know his situation."

"The situation before was too complex, and I couldn't keep an eye on others either."

Li Yi said: "This is normal. The battlefield is so chaotic that surviving depends entirely on one's own ability. After all, the gap in strength between us and the Demon God Realm is too vast. You go back to the defense fortress to rest first, and I will circle around again, cleaning up some of the remaining enemies while I'm at it."

"Good, then you be careful." Su Mu nodded and immediately dragged her severely injured body to return quickly.

Fortunately, the journey was safe, with no traces of enemies, and she finally returned to the station safely.

And when she saw the Tianyi Palace that had lost its disguise, she could not help but be stunned for a moment.

But Su Mu could be certain that this was the fortress from before.

"So that's how it is, the previous fortress was transformed from a celestial palace." Su Mu was not stupid and immediately understood.

After all, after the appearance of the Profound Immortal Continent, these magic treasures were no longer surprising.

After Su Mu walked into the Tianyi Palace, she discovered that a life repair pod was placed in the main hall.

This was a high-tech product from the No. 6 World, capable of repairing missing limbs and damage to the human body. It could be considered a relatively valuable medical instrument even at the Golden Academy.

"It must have been left here by Li Yi on purpose." Su Mu thought to herself, and then she did not stand on ceremony and lay directly inside.

The artificial intelligence Lan Ji also immediately activated the life repair pod to help Su Mu recover from her injuries.

Li Yi was very carefully cleaning up the battlefield at this moment, and the scope of his patrol was also constantly increasing. He easily killed several lone Earth Demons and also saw the corpses of some evolutionaries.

Clearly, the Earth defense line had suffered heavy casualties in this battle.

However, he did not find any traces of Tao Sheng.

Perhaps there was nothing left of his remains, or perhaps he had strayed too far from the defense line during the battle.
