Chapter 408: Hard Battle Against the Five Demon Emperors

"What is there to fear?"

"A Dao Palace without a stabilizing object, with only the spiritual breath of this Spirit Plant Garden, can he even use that Dao technique a second time?"

"Guard the cave entrance!"

Jin Chi roared repeatedly, like a calming pill, causing the other Demon Emperors to calm down.

After all, the Dao Palace is a technique only cultivators at the Void Return Realm can possess.

Even if a cultivator at the Transformation of Spirit Realm possesses extraordinary talent and masters it early, there is a fatal flaw.

That is the lack of a Palace-Subduing Object.

The so-called Palace-Subduing is to completely suppress the rootless duckweed, the mirage-like prototype of the Dao Palace, causing it to return from void to reality.

In short, before this step is completed, every time the Dao Palace is deployed, it is actually re-congealed from the surrounding spiritual energy.

Such a restriction might not matter much outside.

But within this relatively narrow Spirit Plant Garden, the opponent can mobilize only a tiny fraction of the heaven and earth's spiritual energy.

"You scared this Emperor."

The Deer-Headed Demon Emperor forced a smile; perhaps the impression Nie Jun left on it back then was too deep, and it was almost fooled.

The magical robe on its body still belonged to Elder General Nanyang; a mere cultivator at the Transformation of Spirit Realm, without that strange Dao technique just now, how could it harm them?

"I almost forgot the Lion Emperor is skilled in deception; this Emperor was negligent."

Thinking of this, they reassembled before the light curtain.

Just as Jin Chi said, this is the opponent's only way out.

"..."

Shen Yi watched the demons' movements silently.

The Dao Palace in the sky gradually became ethereal and indistinct.

He fell silent for an instant, rolled up his sleeves, and a chill appeared at the corner of his lips.

Leaving this Dao Palace, abandoning those messy magical formulas... was his favorite way of fighting.

Shen Yi suddenly gripped the Dark-Tail Spear tightly; the spear body erupted with a violent hum, like a thunderclap exploding, and his figure shot out!

The long spear in his hand seemed to transform into a ferocious water dragon.

It swept open a pitch-black dark light across the sky, like a rainbow bridge spanning north and south.

Roar!

One end of the bridge took on a terrifying water dragon head shape, opening a bloody maw to swallow the snake demon lying on the ground.

The spear tip suddenly thrust upward.

The snake demon, caught off guard, was thrust into mid-air; before it could react, the spearhead was already pressing against its abdomen.

The General Nanyang magical robe on its body surged violently, and dense magical arrays appeared one after another.

However, Shen Yi held the long spear, his whole body radiating brilliant golden light; surging, scorching flames ignited from his skin, and he transformed into a divine phoenix spreading its wings, with flowing flames like tail feathers, brutally using the Dark-Tail Spear to blast the snake demon flying away.

Boom—

In the sky, there seemed to be some barrier, like an invisible, intangible high wall.

The snake demon crashed violently into it.

It stared in horror at its abdomen.

It saw the array symbols on the magical robe shattering layer by layer before that ferocious long spear!

"This robe is eating me!"

The snake demon felt the mad suction coming from within the robe.

It could not help but let out a piercing scream.

Why! The previous Dao technique also targeted it, and now it is again.

The opponent seemed unable to see the other demons, focusing solely on killing just one.

In fact, the snake demon did not need to remind them; the other Demon Emperors, after a brief hesitation, had already launched their attacks toward the figure shrouded in the divine phoenix's scorching flames.

Various divine abilities all struck Shen Yi's back.

However, he was already accustomed to the robe's absorption and showed not the slightest panic.

Indifferently, he continued to thrust the long spear into the snake demon's abdomen!

Fighting five alone.

If this group of demons were to employ a war of attrition, wearing him down in turns, even with Shen Yi's foundation, he could not hold out for long.

Every move he made had a purpose clear to the extreme.

Starting with the weakest, he would slay them one by one.

"..."

Jin Chi glanced at the Imperial Demon Golden Arrow in its hand, and ferocity suddenly surged in its eyes.

This object must be saved for a fatal strike.

The robe was absorbing the snake demon's aura, but at the same time, Shen Yi's foundation was also being rapidly consumed.

She wanted Shen Yi's life, not to force the opponent to retreat; even if the snake demon died, she could not afford a mistake.

"Yuanhe Treasure Vase."

The Bear-Headed Demon Emperor, somewhat unfamiliar, summoned the Treasure Vase; after fumbling with it twice, a dark, heavy Dahe instantly surged from the narrow vase mouth, directly drowning the two figures in the sky.

They were all demons, yet they were reluctant to part with their magical robes and unwilling to reveal their true forms.

For a moment, they were somewhat hindered and restricted.

The turbid Dahe quickly coiled and gathered, emitting the weeping of vengeful souls.

"Roar!"

The Golden-Winged Demon Emperor finally moved; with a single spread of his wings, his form instantly darted to the space above the Dahe River.

His vertical pupils stared fixedly at the changes within.

The flowing light upon that pair of Golden Wings grew ever more intense, even gradually becoming viscous.

Just then, accompanied by a thunderous boom.

The turbid Dahe River actually exploded directly, turning into a torrential downpour that shrouded the entire Spirit Plant Garden.

At this most opportune moment, the Golden-Winged Demon Emperor dove fiercely; before anyone could clearly see the figure within, the flowing light on his wings had transformed into a sky-filling rain of swords, rustling as it covered the ground below!

Bang!

Her jaw took a whip-kick.

Her plump figure shot out like an arrow from a bowstring, crashing away with a boom.

Shen Yi calmly flicked the corpse off the spear shaft; until the snake demon perished, that General Nanyang Dharma Robe remained intact, yet it could no longer sustain the robe's consumption.

The next moment.

His form appeared above the Golden-Winged Demon Emperor, his pitch-black eyes reflecting that wild, ferocious face.

Shen Yi held the spear with both palms; beneath his wet hair, his expression added a few more degrees of killing intent.

The spear tip suddenly thrust down toward the woman's throat.

Blazing flames ignited once more, carrying boundless force, and slammed the opponent hard onto the ground!

It was another scene exactly the same.

The Dharma Robe's array symbols slowly crumbled.

Only, compared to the snake demon's panic, the Golden-Winged Demon Emperor gripped the spear tip with both hands, baring her tiger teeth, roaring as she tried to push that long spear away.

"Jin Chi, I am here to aid you!"

The Deer-Headed Demon Emperor suddenly darted from behind, without hesitation striking at Shen Yi with her sharp great antler.

However, before it could fully strike down.

Shen Yi suddenly turned back, punching its face; within his body, the Nine Demons roared together, and a Divine Phoenix cried out long.

Blood qi and blazing flames alternately rose.

The deer demon was punched flying over a hundred zhang, leaving a straight trench across the fields of spirit crops.

Seizing this opportunity, the Golden-Winged Demon Emperor suddenly withdrew.

Panting, she stared at Shen Yi.

Then she actually laughed: "You... you finally defended."

That seemingly so powerful punch actually revealed Shen Yi's situation.

Just now, even facing the combined assault of several Demon Emperors, he had focused solely on that snake demon; now he actually threw a punch to defend, indicating that the opponent likewise could no longer sustain the Dharma Robe on her body.

"You..."

The Golden-Winged Demon Emperor looked on excitedly and cruelly, revealing in her palm that spirit pearl hiding quicksand: "Do not think to escape."

Before her words ended.

She actually swallowed that spirit pearl directly into her belly.

As long as this object remained, Shen Yi could not hope to cast his strange displacement technique.

"Divine Wind, aid me!"

She roared, and a message-transmitting jade slip emerged from her sleeve.

However, no response came from within the jade slip.

Instead, it shattered directly.

The Golden-Winged Demon Emperor's expression changed slightly, yet she revealed nothing unusual.

Divine Wind was not some technique, but the title of a Demon Emperor.

"He is nearing his end; act."

The Golden-Winged Demon Emperor retrieved the Imperial Demon Golden Arrow once more.

The remaining three Demon Emperors slowly closed in, all fiddling with the magical treasures in their hands.

"..."

Shen Yi's gaze swept over them, then he took a large handful of demon cores from his storage bag.

In front of all the demons, he successively placed them in his mouth and chewed them to pieces.

Residual bloodstains dyed his lips red, making those neat white teeth appear all the more grim.

At the instant the demons summoned their magical treasures.

His right arm suddenly exerted force, hurling the Dark-Tail Spear he held with a mighty throw!
