That demon king power didn’t kill him—excellent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yue, commander of Team Nine, felt both shock and joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other evolvers beside him also exhaled in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as Li Yi was alive, that was enough—after all, such hard-won victory would be ruined if he were gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Before we entered the battlefield, some predicted that Li Yi’s appearance would shatter the balance and draw the demon king or immortals into action, so we prepared in advance—and now it’s clearly paid off.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yunbai was also deeply relieved—the worst had not happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the enemies on the battlefield thought otherwise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuan Yang, an Elder at the peak of Mahayana, had concealed his form; though his spiritual sense could not lock onto Li Yi, he still felt that unusually powerful aura suddenly manifest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even the demon king’s power couldn’t kill this Li Yi? If we let him grow further, he’ll become a major problem—we must eliminate him quickly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuan Yang silently thought, but he knew his own group could never accomplish this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the demon king or an immortal could do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bao Xiang was too incompetent—he carried three demon king powers yet died without even seeing Li Yi’s face. If he’d acted sooner, the opponent wouldn’t have had time to react—he’d have killed Li Yi for sure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Far from the battlefield’s center, the great demon Tianlang gnashed his teeth, his expression one of bitter disappointment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his view, Bao Xiang was simply too foolish to get the job done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, after this move, everyone on the battlefield was on guard—finding another opportunity would be far harder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Failed? Tianyue Demon King—what a pity.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the battlefield, in the demon god realm’s encampment, Yin Ya and Jin Peng both shook their heads slightly upon sensing Li Yi’s aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't that Tianyue's power was weak—it was that the Earth's strong ones had reacted in time, uniting their forces to resist the three demon king powers and successfully saved Li Yi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Tianyue Demon King’s expression remained cold; perhaps he had already accepted this mission’s failure, as it had happened before. Li Yi’s current strength and potential had now reached a level worthy of his personal intervention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If left unchecked, one day he might truly ascend to the rank of demon king.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Li Yi was cunning—he spent most of his time off Earth, vanishing into unknown realms; catching him was nearly impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianyue Demon King’s gaze hardened once more. His demon king power surged around him; with a single step forward, he transformed into a brilliant full moon, hurtling into the battlefield. Moonlight bathed heaven and earth, and terrifying demonic energy radiated outward, announcing that this demon king had now entered the fray himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tianyue Demon King is acting?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sight startled the other two demon kings. Though they had anticipated Tianyue could not tolerate Li Yi’s presence on the battlefield, such swift and decisive action was still hard to accept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, at their level, any move would trigger a chain reaction—possibly sparking a full-scale war between the two realms, or even summoning terrifying beings, dragging the entire demon god realm into chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Earth’s forces were weak and insignificant, in this complex situation, Earth’s people still needed to stand at the front, absorbing pressure from all sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without Earth’s people, that pressure would shift to other worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, this current balance was what all sides preferred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is Tianyue Demon King about to act?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet such a massive disturbance could not escape the notice of Wang Chengjun, Li Weiguo, and Zhang Xinghua on the Black Great Wall—they fixed their eyes on the demon king and, seeing him truly break the rules by charging into the battlefield, could no longer hold back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three moved as one, carrying the great fortune of heaven and earth, surging forward in unison, entering the battlefield to intercept the demon king.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky was filled with moonlight, but as the great fortune of heaven and earth surged forth, even demon king power was forced to retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tianyue Demon King, you’ve crossed the line. We haven’t yet settled accounts for your previous interference in the battlefield—yet now you dare enter personally? What are you trying to do? Do you no longer care for the dignity of a demon king?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Chengjun roared, his voice shaking the heavens and echoing for a thousand li.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They must claim moral superiority—even if they fought, they would do so with righteous justification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianyue Demon King ignored Li Yi on the battlefield; his ruby-red eyes fixed on the three men—he knew the greatest obstacle to killing Li Yi was not Li Yi himself, but these three Earth strong ones who still deserved attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he was Tianyue Demon King, of noble blood—how could he take these enemies seriously?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Li Yi killed my beloved daughter and wounded my subordinates—this debt must be settled. If you Earth folk hand over Li Yi’s life, I will withdraw from the demon god realm and never set foot here again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Weiguo sneered: “Even a demon king resorts to such tricks? Don’t dream. Your demon god realm invaded Earth—you deserve death. Besides, you’ve already broken your own promises—your word means nothing. Animals are animals—even if they take human form, their beast hearts remain unchanged.” Zhang Xinghua’s hostility was palpable—he sensed a battle with this demon king was unavoidable today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing their resolve, Tianyue Demon King showed no anger—only a cold sliver of killing intent: “Then let us settle this on the Nine Heavens. Let the outcome decide Li Yi’s fate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fight if you must—we’re not afraid of you!” Wang Chengjun roared immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two were equally fired up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they could defeat this demon king—or even kill him—Earth’s situation would greatly improve, no longer so passive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianyue Demon King spoke no more—he transformed into a brilliant full moon and shot straight into the clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Chengjun, Li Weiguo, and Zhang Xinghua followed without hesitation—they would fight high above, avoiding collateral damage to Earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before leaving, Wang Chengjun instantly sent a mental message to Li Yi: “Li Yi, while we hold off Tianyue Demon King, lead the others to end this battle swiftly—annihilate them, then retreat immediately. If things turn dire, cross the boundary and leave Earth for now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, their figures vanished from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yi’s expression shifted upon hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, these three qi-fortune cultivators had no full confidence in defeating Tianyue Demon King—otherwise they wouldn’t have made such an arrangement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, Li Yi could not concern himself with battles at this level—he must focus on his own task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This war, which should have ended in victory, was due to conclude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, he rode the clouds and headed toward the gathering point of the evolvers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the recent battle, only twenty-one of the original twenty-nine evolvers remained alive—eight had perished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with Li Yi’s involvement, such an advantage still cost eight lives—under normal circumstances, casualties would have been far worse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Li Yi arrive, all turned to look at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We have little time—we must end this war quickly. Delaying risks further complications.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yunbai immediately replied: “I’ve already received orders—shall we act now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course. Those still able to fight, move now,” Li Yi said. “Form a team to ensure absolute security. I need two comrades with strong scouting abilities to assist me in locating enemies.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll go with you,” Liu Yunbai said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zheng Duoduo, you go with Li Yi,” Jiang Yue spoke up, assigning someone immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, no problem,” Zheng Duoduo flew over at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yi glanced at her and nodded slightly—he remembered her. Jiang Yue had mentioned she possessed exceptional perception, rivaling the spiritual sense of a Mahayana cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then let’s begin.” Li Yi wasted no time—he pointed, and instantly, pure white auspicious clouds formed beneath Liu Yunbai and Zheng Duoduo’s feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After achieving the Five Qi’s Perfect Fulfillment, auspicious clouds were no longer colored by the Five Elements—they turned white, and their speed surpassed all previous forms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The auspicious cloud merged with Li Yi, becoming a white streak that swiftly cut across the heavens and vanished from sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We must move too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Feiming, Jiang Yue, and others did not idle. After brief rest, they immediately rallied the remaining comrades to clear the battlefield of remaining enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are two ways to end a war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either wait out the full twelve hours before withdrawing, or annihilate all enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, battles always ended after twelve hours, because annihilating enemies was nearly impossible—not just for evolvers, but even for the demon god realm and the Xuan Immortal Continent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if evolvers were wiped out, great demons and cultivators remained enemies of each other—they would never fight to the death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the Second Battlefield could be covered by Mahayana cultivators’ spiritual sense, that didn’t mean the battlefield was small—it merely meant their spiritual sense was extraordinarily vast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yi had not cultivated the immortal arts, so he lacked spiritual sense and could not precisely locate hidden enemies. As a Dao cultivator, he relied on sensing changes in heaven and earth’s qi—a useful method, nonetheless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to find those cunning, elusive cultivators, he needed his teammates’ help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, any cultivator who reached Mahayana had at least a few methods to conceal their aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1625,"2026-06-20T01:27:08.613Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","595413704305afca4147aa76d6c92252d6d9f29e64be9bc1fff31237f5a0e900","after-the-sky-fell-chapter-803","after-the-sky-fell-chapter-801",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-the-sky-fell-cover.jpg"]
