Chapter 888: Severely Wounded

The battle between Li Yi and the Purple Dragon Demon God at this moment was extremely tragic. Both sides engaged in a life-and-death struggle from the start, especially the Purple Dragon Demon God, who wanted to finish off Li Yi in the shortest time possible before going to deal with the East Pole Heavenly Venerate.

This was because for every move the East Pole Heavenly Venerate made, a Tianyue Yao Wang would perish.

The Demon God Realm could not withstand such losses. If this continued, even if he succeeded in killing Li Yi in the end, the Demon God Realm would still suffer a crushing defeat.

However, Li Yi was not as easy to kill as imagined. Although the Purple Dragon Demon God held the upper hand, and every strike caused the hundred-zhang-tall giant to bleed, he could not damage Li Yi's foundation. His terrifying recovery ability and profound background allowed him to sustain a long, drawn-out battle.

What troubled the Purple Dragon Demon God the most was that this Li Yi had extremely seasoned combat experience. He had tried many times to trade wounds for a kill, but the opponent saw through his intentions and did not fall for the trap. Moreover, as time passed, Li Yi's power continued to grow.

More and more incense power was crossing the boundary, which made Li Yi's second Primordial Spirit flower increasingly powerful.

Boom!

The firmament was torn apart once again. The Purple Dragon Demon God and Li Yi collided again. The terrifying power overturned the entire ocean, and the whole Demon God Realm began to tremble. It was unknown how much land had been shattered.

But after this strike, both sides retreated just as they had before.

Although the Pan-Dragon Staff in the Purple Dragon Demon God's hand was stained with the thunderous blood of a god, he had also paid a price. His dragon-scale armor was shattered in many places, and he had also sustained quite a few fist marks and axe-inflicted wounds.

Although these were only flesh wounds, the fact that they could draw blood from this Demon God was enough to prove the threat posed by the person before him.

"You are no match for me. If this battle drags on, you will undoubtedly die. If you are willing to leave quickly, I can spare your life," the Purple Dragon Demon God roared, attempting to shake the mind of the person before him.

"Stop dreaming. As long as I entangle you, the Demon God Realm will definitely be the one to lose in the end. Once the East Pole Heavenly Venerate finishes dealing with your Demon Kings, he will naturally join hands with me to finish you off. You had better pray for your own luck," Li Yi sneered. "Besides, you and I have been fighting for a while now. Do you think you can kill me? If you could, I would have died at your hands long ago, and we wouldn't be fighting until now."

"You're courting death." The Purple Dragon Demon God was furious. He knew he had to fight with his life on the line to have a chance at breaking the stalemate; otherwise, he would truly be proven right by this person.

A heaven-shaking dragon roar rang out once again.

In an instant.

The Purple Dragon Demon God manifested his true form. Instantly, a purple true dragon, a full six thousand zhang long, appeared above the firmament. The true dragon's body was incomparably massive, blotting out the sky and sun. Even with Li Yi's hundred-zhang divine body, he appeared incomparably tiny before it.

A Demon God with true dragon bloodline was simply too perfect, with almost no weaknesses. His demon power was vast, his strength was heaven-toppling, his defense was astonishing, and his vitality and recovery ability were also top-tier.

However, at this moment, the entire body of this purple true dragon was emitting purple light. Under this light, the six-thousand-zhang-long true dragon was shrinking rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And in the process of shrinking, the scales on the true dragon's body began to compress and actually shattered continuously. The Purple Dragon Demon God even let out a painful dragon roar.

Very quickly.

Dragon blood splashed out along his body, dyeing the entire sky red.

Although the Purple Dragon Demon God's size had shrunk, his demon power was constantly condensing and compressing. An extremely dangerous aura was emitted.

"This guy is risking his life to increase his power. Is he that impatient to finish me off? Or is it that the unfavorable situation has made this Demon God anxious, forcing him to do this?" Li Yi felt a chill in his heart upon seeing this.

He understood that this method of increasing power caused great damage to the opponent himself. Even if he succeeded in finishing him off in the end, his own strength would be greatly reduced, and he would very likely be unable to defeat the East Pole Heavenly Venerate.

However, Li Yi could not just watch the opponent increase his power so recklessly.

The divine power within his body surged, the power of dragon and tiger was added, and his magic power was unleashed. Then, wielding the giant axe in his hand, he shattered space with a single strike and slashed toward the purple true dragon. With his full power combined with the red-gold divine artifact, it was enough to severely wound the Demon God.

Facing this incoming strike, the Purple Dragon Demon God seemed to have anticipated it long ago. His body, now shrunk to about a hundred zhang, was covered in purple radiance. Enduring the pain, he let out a dragon roar and then whipped out a dragon tail.

This strike was not powerful; it was not meant to repel Li Yi, but only to block this strike and buy himself some time.

But fighting until now, the price paid for showing weakness at this moment was undoubtedly heavy.

After Li Yi's axe fell, the Purple Dragon Demon God instantly let out a painful wail. A section of his dragon tail was actually hacked off by force, countless amounts of blood splashed, and a large amount of Demon God power leaked out.

Hearing the Demon God's painful wail, all the Demon Kings turned their heads in shock and surprise.

"Not good, the Demon God has been severely wounded. The dragon tail was actually cut off by the opponent. How is this possible? That is the Purple Dragon Demon God, the only true dragon of the Demon God Realm."

"The Purple Dragon Demon God won't be defeated, will he? How could this happen? The opponent was clearly no match before; why is he showing signs of fatigue now? Could it be that he is truly old, and his Demon God power is failing?"

"The Purple Dragon Demon God must not lose, otherwise the Demon God Realm is finished."

Seeing such a scene, the Demon Kings and Great Demons felt their hearts turn cold. They had been counting on the Purple Dragon Demon God to deal with the East Pole Heavenly Venerate after killing Li Yi, helping them win this great war.

If they couldn't even get past Li Yi, how could there be any chance of victory later on?

However, Li Yi, who had taken advantage of the strike, did not show the slightest joy. On the contrary, his expression became increasingly solemn, even carrying a hint of urgency. Therefore, after hacking off the opponent's dragon tail, he did not hesitate in the slightest. A roar from a god of the primordial world echoed toward the sky, swallowing all the spiritual energy within a thousand miles in one gulp. Then, he swung his fist, wrapped in silver lightning, and bombarded the Purple Dragon Demon God again.

The opponent's period of weakness would not last long. Li Yi had to seize this gap to deal a heavy blow to the opponent; otherwise, he feared he would be in grave danger.

One punch shattered the firmament and shook the world.

The power of a god was exerted to the extreme under the blessing of incense power.

Heaven and earth trembled again, and divine might poured down. This strike directly annihilated the purple true dragon.

However, the next moment.

A purple divine light bloomed within the endless sea of thunder. The Purple Dragon Demon God, now shrunk to a few dozen zhang, instantly revealed himself. The dragon roar shook the sky, and his speed evolved to the extreme. With just a flicker, he swept away the sea of thunder and killed his way to Li Yi's front.

What?

Li Yi's pupils suddenly constricted.

However, the Purple Dragon Demon God followed like a sharp sword, instantly piercing through his chest and tearing a hideous gash in that indestructible divine body.

At this moment, a large amount of blood gushed out. Even his golden-skinned, jade-boned body was eroded by the purple light at this moment, and the wound was difficult to heal for a time.

Li Yi's massive body staggered backward. He subconsciously covered his chest, staring fixedly at that purple figure.

At this moment, the Purple Dragon Demon God's figure was straight and indestructible, as if he had transformed into a true dragon sword that could cut through anything. Although his body, only a few dozen zhang long, had shrunk a lot, the Demon God power contained within it was chilling to the heart.

Without waiting for Li Yi to make any adjustments, the Purple Dragon Demon God transformed into a purple divine light again and killed his way over.

Li Yi smelled a crisis. In this form, the Purple Dragon Demon God's strength had reached an extremely dangerous level. Such combat power was enough to annihilate him.

But now was not the time to think about these things.

He mobilized his blood and energy, controlled his physical body, and immediately blocked the wound. At the same time, he used divine power to cleanse himself, dispelling the Demon God power to help the wound heal. Afterward, he grabbed his giant axe and erupted with his full power again.

Countless golden lights condensed, and the incense power accumulated in a realm burned. Li Yi launched a strike, wanting to repel that purple divine light.

Boom!

Under this strike, something Li Yi could not imagine happened. The Purple Dragon Tianyue Yao Wang actually resisted his axe attack head-on. The divine power that was enough to open heaven and earth did not cause him any damage at all; instead, the red-gold divine artifact-level giant axe was shaken away by force.

The purple divine light killed its way over again, this time even more viciously. It slashed directly onto Li Yi's shoulder, tearing his divine body apart by force, almost splitting him in two.

This level of severe injury was of no use even if he controlled his body and mobilized his blood and energy.

A massive amount of divine blood was scattered in the air, and countless lightning bolts crisscrossed, wrapping Li Yi's body inside, as if heaven and earth were assisting this god, unwilling to see him perish in the Demon God Realm.

The aura of Li Yi's primordial god was rapidly weakening.

Such a sudden change instantly shocked all the experts fighting on Earth's side.

"Tai Yi." Xiang Xiangzi had just severely wounded a Tianyue Yao Wang and wanted to finish him off, but sensing the changes in heaven and earth, she lost focus, and the severely wounded Tianyue Yao Wang escaped. However, compared to killing the Tianyue Yao Wang, she was more concerned about Li Yi's current state.

"Not good, Tai Yi Heavenly Venerate." The East Pole Heavenly Venerate's expression also changed drastically; he had not expected such a situation to occur.

"God of Chishan." The god-blood warriors from the primordial world were also shocked, and then erupted with endless fury. As warriors of the Red Gold Kingdom, they absolutely could not accept this scene.

"Something happened."

The five luck-based experts from the military had their expressions moved at this moment. They could no longer hold back, abandoned their respective opponents, immediately gathered together, and then headed straight for Li Yi's direction.

"The Purple Dragon Demon God has severely wounded Li Yi, Li Yi is about to be defeated, the plan has changed." The Earth high-level officials were also a bit panicked when they saw this situation.

According to the previously formulated plan, as long as Li Yi could hold off the Purple Dragon Demon God, this war would be won.

They had not expected the Purple Dragon Demon God to be so crazy, instantly raising his power to a new height. Two strikes had severely wounded Li Yi, almost causing him to die; this was simply unimaginable.

If even Li Yi were defeated, the others would likely not be this Purple Dragon Demon God's match either.

And with Li Yi's severe wounding, the Demon God Realm's side saw their morale greatly increase. This meant that one of the opponent's top experts had already been defeated. Next, they only needed to defeat the other expert—no, even if they just held him off, the Demon God Realm could win.

The Demon Kings thought so, and the Purple Dragon Demon God thought so too, so he was impatient to kill Li Yi and remove this great disaster.

However, the Purple Dragon Demon God in this state also paid a great price. At this moment, even if Li Yi did not attack, his whole body was constantly seeping blood. The Demon God body could not withstand such power condensed to the extreme and began to show signs of collapse. ===== CHAPTER 889 =====
