Chapter 669
Wu Laodao and Feiyunzi now appeared, choosing to directly confront the five great demons—honestly, this required not just courage but immense determination, for if the five great demons joined forces, they could easily kill both of them.
The only question was how long they could hold out against these five great demons.
Beyond that, they also had to worry: what if the five great demons left only two to fight them, while the other three went after others?
The uncertainty was too great.
But the two had no choice—they could only take it one step at a time.
"If we move, try to lure the great demons away, keep them far from Taiyi's side—we must have no connection to Taiyi at all, or the great demons will sense him and he's finished. The best way is to let him hide among the evolvers, undetected," Wu Laodao whispered secretly.
"I'm a lone cultivator—I know this well. I hope Taiyi won't use the Baoyue Bow and Wu Jin Arrows again; otherwise it'll be disastrous," Feiyunzi replied.
"Taiyi already understood this last time. Don't worry. When the bow and arrows are finally needed, it'll be at the brink of life and death—then it won't matter anymore," Wu Laodao said.
"Only two experts? Earth's defenses are clearly hollow inside. I can't fathom how the great demon Fengyu, armed with the Baoyue Bow and Wu Jin Arrows, still died here."
At that moment, one great demon, sensing no new powerful aura, sneered: "Yuan Cang, you're a disgrace to our kind. You've failed to break this pitiful defense for so long? Tianyue Demon King should replace you with a new batch of subordinates—otherwise your lifetime reputation will be utterly ruined."
Yuan Cang immediately roared: "Great Demon Leijiao, watch your tongue."
"Isn't what Leijiao says true? Yuan Cang, today we're helping you break Earth's defense—you should thank us. If you keep dragging this out, I fear you'll suddenly drop dead on this battlefield," another great demon sneered.
"Do you want to die, Chijia?" Yuan Cang gripped his purple-gold mixed iron staff, desperate to strike down these two great demons first.
"If you're going to fight, wait until after you've wiped out these Earthlings. We agreed: we help Tianyue Demon King break Earth's defense, and in return, if we find the Baoyue Bow and Wu Jin Arrows, they're ours," another great demon said.
"Fighting among yourselves now only makes humans laugh."
With this, the tense atmosphere eased somewhat.
This scene made Wu Laodao and Feiyunzi silently curse their luck.
If they'd truly fought each other, the crisis would've been over. But though these great demons were murderous, hot-tempered, and despised one another, they'd reached this realm—they weren't fools. They knew conflicts must be settled later, not now.
"First, kill all these humans," Yuan Cang said.
"Only two opponents—how do we split them?" Leijiao glanced over.
"Attack together—kill these two first, to avoid any mishaps," Great Demon Chijia said immediately.
They followed the law of the jungle: in the wild, a pack of demonic beasts would unhesitatingly surround and kill prey—even if one could handle it alone—because teamwork minimized injury and cost.
In the Demon God Realm, no one would deem this unfair or dishonorable.
"Agreed," Yuan Cang replied.
The other great demons nodded in unison.
"Five-Colored Divine Bell—kill!"
But in that instant, Wu Laodao, already prepared and wary of their move, struck first, seizing the initiative—his lower-grade Dao artifact, the Five-Colored Divine Bell, shot forth.
As the five elemental energies descended, the ancient bronze bell suddenly expanded, like a bottomless abyss descending over the five great demons.
"All of you, follow my order—break through the line, exterminate every Earth evolver!"
Yuan Cang roared, raising his purple-gold mixed iron staff and charging at Feiyunzi, using the move to dodge the Five-Colored Divine Bell's strike.
He dodged—but another great demon wasn't so lucky; he was instantly blocked by the five-colored energy and swallowed whole by the bell.
The Five-Colored Divine Bell vibrated violently, its five-colored energy surging, trying to shatter the great demon inside.
But the great demon was no ordinary foe—he roared, unleashing countless ancient runes that slammed against the bell, resisting its attack and shaking the bronze vessel violently, as if ready to burst out at any moment.
Yet this was a Dao artifact—even if trapped, breaking free in a short time was no easy feat, for its wielder was Wu Laodao, a master of the Three Flowers Realm, capable of unleashing the artifact's full power.
Trapping one great demon briefly was already a victory Wu Laodao was satisfied with—he then donned five-colored light, gripping a five-colored divine sword, and charged toward the other great demons.
BOOM!
The clash of five-element energy and demonic power erupted into a cataclysmic storm.
Wu Laodao holding off two great demons alone was already at his limit—but Chijia, seeing this, charged in without hesitation, aiming to kill him as quickly as possible.
Wu Laodao had no choice—he gritted his teeth and unleashed Dao techniques to fend off the twin assault.
Meanwhile, Feiyunzi was in dire straits.
Yuan Cang charged with his staff, striking with shattering force—boundless demonic power, laced with deadly Dao traces, instantly engulfed him.
"Yuan Cang's power is terrifying—he must have the combat strength of a Two Flowers Realm cultivator," Feiyunzi's Eight Trigrams Purple Cloud Robe erupted in violet light, its defensive power at peak, barely allowing him to withstand the devastating blow.
Seizing the chance, he retreated swiftly, trying to lure the great demon away from the battlefield.
"Don't think you can escape—I'll kill you today!" Yuan Cang roared in fury and gave chase.
But the great demon Leijiao stood still, coldly observing Earth's defense line.
The very scenario Wu Laodao and Feiyunzi feared had come to pass.
One great demon, disregarding honor, chose not to engage them—but to strike the defense line directly.
"Leijiao, come with me!" Yuan Cang turned and bellowed: "If you don't eliminate Earth's experts, even if you get the Baoyue Bow and Wu Jin Arrows, you won't be able to answer to Tianyue Demon King!"
He wouldn't allow Leijiao to snatch the spoils.
If everyone did this, Earth's two experts would never be killed.
Moreover, Yuan Cang believed the remaining celestial and terrestrial demons had more than enough strength to slaughter Earth's evolvers three times over—no need for great demons to intervene.
Hearing "Tianyue Demon King,"
Leijiao clearly hesitated—he instantly transformed into a streak of lightning and flew toward Yuan Cang, deciding to first join forces and eliminate Earth's experts.
Then, after proving his worth, he could claim the divine bow and arrows—even Tianyue Demon King couldn't object.
A battle erupted between the great demons and the Three Flowers Realm master.
At the same time,
Numerous celestial and terrestrial demons burst from demonic clouds, charging straight ahead.
Nearly thirty celestial demons descended—this number sent shivers through the defenders.
Even without great demons, they had too few experts to counter even a fraction of these celestial demons.
But at that moment,
A roar echoed as a towering, muscular man shot skyward, charging directly into the incoming celestial demons.
It was none other than Wang Hu.
Wang Hu's realm was only Spirit God, not yet crossed the Tribulation—but his body radiated an overwhelming aura, manifesting as a wrathful Yama, radiating an invincible presence.
Simultaneously, his power surged at an unbelievable rate, his body wrapped in countless ancient incantations, each one etched densely across his skin, amplifying his strength.
"Yama Imperishable Body, Blessings of the Gods—come forth! Let us fight side by side and wipe out these vermin!" Wang Hu roared, his entire body blazing with divine light.
With this unstoppable momentum, he instantly clashed with a celestial demon.
A terrifying collision of power.
The celestial demon was thrown back, spitting blood, its expression filled with disbelief.
"How can this human's power be so terrifying?"
Wang Hu didn't care—he now glowed with red eyes, his killing intent ignited, lunging at the nearest celestial demon.
"Die!" The celestial demon, enraged and humiliated, unleashed its demonic power, launching a strike laced with primordial Dao traces.
Wang Hu's form was instantly swallowed.
But soon, he tore through the darkness, emerging unscathed—his muscles bulged, glowing with divine radiance, as if clad in divine armor.
"See how many times you can take it," the celestial demon charged again.
The wounded celestial demon, furious, joined the assault, determined to swiftly kill this strange human.
Meanwhile,
At another point on the defense line, a blood-red dragon surged into the sky—Ji Wu, a martial arts master, punched forward, fighting three celestial demons alone, drenched in blood, refusing to retreat, even smiling with exhilaration.
Other evolvers now joined the fray, battling the terrestrial demons to the death.
The fire of war soon reached Li Yi's defense line.
Li Yi now hovered in midair, gazing at the approaching celestial and terrestrial demons, clad in Crimson Feather Purple Gold Armor, lightning writhing around him, golden flames flickering, the power of Long Hu saturating his body, four-colored fist energies coalescing on his fists, unwavering.
Clearly, he was ready to fight a horde of celestial demons.
