Chapter 44: The Strongest Support in History
The situation on the field improved, but it was still grim. Mu Mian and Mu Li had been cooperating for a long time and could barely resist the attacks of Gao Li and Xia Zhi. But Mu Yi and Yu Chiyan couldn't. Although Yu Chiyan was a Demon Son of the Fire Demon Sect, he had just advanced after all, and his understanding of Demon Saint was insufficient. He could only barely protect himself. Although Mu Yi was powerful, Huo Liaoyuan was not bad either, with abundant Demon Power, and while waving the iron hammer, he actually had extra Demon Power to convert into Demon Flames, protecting his whole body, so that Mu Yi's vine thorns could not find a way to start.
The biggest variable on the scene was Meng Su. Although Meng Su was at the peak of True Demon, he had the Devouring Heaven Demon Core, Thought Gang, and Life and Death Lotus on his body. Coupled with the help of the Universe Needle, even if he couldn't participate in the battle directly, he could play a stable support role.
Meng Su stared closely at the battlefield, looking for opportunities. After a few rounds, Yu Chiyan was in danger, and if it weren't for Mu Yi's full help, he might have died.
Just when Yu Chiyan was walking on thin ice, Wu Daiyuan strengthened his attack. Wu Daiyuan was an elder of the Righteous Demon Hall and had the opportunity to compete for the position of Sect Master. But according to the convention, the Sect Master was inherited by the Demon Son. Before, Yu Chiyan had been squeezed out by Wu Daiyuan, and his resources could not keep up, letting Yu Chiyan stay at the Demon God stage for a long time. Wu Daiyuan was not worried at the time, but now he suddenly advanced to Demon Saint. Wu Daiyuan panicked. Instinctively, he wanted to get rid of Yu Chiyan as soon as possible.
Wu Daiyuan slashed toward Yu Chiyan. This slash raised sky-filling flames, actually with faint blade intent, locking Yu Chiyan. Yu Chiyan turned his body with difficulty, broke away from that faint blade intent, and then retreated rapidly. At this time, Wu Daiyuan used all his skills. The Demon Flames on his body converged into Demon Power, and the Demon Power blessed his body, producing a teleportation, and slashed on the top of Yu Chiyan's head with one slash.
Yu Chiyan couldn't retreat, so he could only raise his Demon Blade to meet him. Although both of their Demon Blades were only Spirit Treasures, Wu Daiyuan had been famous for many years, with deep Demon Power, and slashed Yu Chiyan's Demon Blade in half with one slash, and the remaining force continued downward, about to split Yu Chiyan into two pieces.
At this time, Mu Yi was entangled by Huo Liaoyuan and could not rescue.
Yu Chiyan turned sideways with difficulty to let it pass, but he didn't completely dodge it, and his right arm was slashed off by Wu Daiyuan.
Yu Chiyan retreated rapidly, blood flowing like a pillar from his right shoulder. He hurriedly exerted his Demon Power to seal the acupoints and stop the blood.
Just when Wu Daiyuan wanted to go further and kill Yu Chiyan, a silver needle appeared abruptly and silently behind Yu Chiyan. The silver needle first pierced through Yu Chiyan's body. The silver needle was blessed with countless vitality powers. This vitality power directly supplemented Yu Chiyan's lost arm. Yu Chiyan quickly grew a right arm, and then both hands joined together, clamping Wu Daiyuan's Demon Blade.
The silver needle pierced out from Yu Chiyan's body and met Wu Daiyuan's Demon Blade directly, piercing in from the tip of the blade, all the way through. Wu Daiyuan's Spirit Treasure Demon Blade was far from the level of the Universe Needle, and was pierced into fragments by the Universe Needle.
After the silver needle shattered the Demon Blade, it continued to move forward, piercing toward Wu Daiyuan's face. Wu Daiyuan was shocked, and once again performed a teleportation, the person disappeared from the spot, and then appeared dozens of feet behind. This was the maximum distance of the Demon Saint realm teleportation.
Strangely, the silver needle disappeared with Wu Daiyuan's disappearance. After Wu Daiyuan appeared, the silver needle followed and appeared, still at the position of Wu Daiyuan's brow.
Wu Daiyuan was scared out of his wits. He roared. Demon Power operated at full capacity, and the whole person turned into a fire man. Then he teleported again, and the flame remained in place, pierced by the Universe Needle.
The Universe Needle that pierced the flame phantom continued to fly, not reaching the goal and not stopping, Wu Daiyuan was helpless. He could only punch toward the Universe Needle. The Universe Needle pierced into Wu Daiyuan's fist silently. Then it rotated rapidly, stirring Wu Daiyuan's right arm into fragments, and disappeared into the void.
After this toss, Wu Daiyuan's Demon Power was greatly consumed, and there was almost no extra Demon Power to convert into vitality to re-condense the arm. At this time, Yu Chiyan killed to the front. He punched Wu Daiyuan. Wu Daiyuan could only meet him in a hurry. Wu Daiyuan's left hand was beaten into powder under Yu Chiyan's attack. Immediately after, Yu Chiyan cut off Wu Daiyuan's head with one palm. Wu Daiyuan died.
Just when Yu Chiyan was about to breathe a sigh of relief, an iron hammer carrying huge Demon Power smashed toward Yu Chiyan's head. This was Huo Liaoyuan coming to rescue Wu Daiyuan. However, he came a little late. He didn't expect Wu Daiyuan to be defeated so quickly. He could only kill Yu Chiyan first.
Yu Chiyan's Demon Power was exhausted, so he could only retreat rapidly and dared not meet it. The iron hammer smashed past Yu Chiyan's face. The iron hammer that didn't hit Yu Chiyan attacked again, and smashed toward Yu Chiyan's head again. This hammer Yu Chiyan couldn't dodge. Because the Demon Power was already exhausted. But the iron hammer didn't fall, because vines flying in the air appeared, binding the iron hammer, and then a stick hit Huo Liaoyuan's hand holding the hammer.
Huo Liaoyuan was helpless, so he could only let Yu Chiyan go first. He showed his shield to block Mu Yi's wooden stick. At the same time, he shook his hand, and a ball of flames appeared on the iron hammer, burning Mu Yi's vine thorns into ashes.
One of the four Demon Saints of the Fire Demon Sect had already died. Three against four, defeat was sooner or later, but this sooner or later was not expected to be so fast.
After Mu Li joined the battle, he showed great power, sometimes a long spear, sometimes a fist, cooperating with Mu Mian's sky-filling Demon Seeds, forcing the two Fire Demon Sect old Demon Saints to retreat frequently.
Yu Chiyan rested for a while, restored his Demon Power, and immediately joined the battle group, surrounding Huo Liaoyuan with Mu Yi. Soon Huo Liaoyuan's Demon Power was exhausted under the Demon Power blockade of the two. He was bound by countless vine thorns stretched from under his feet by Mu Yi. Yu Chiyan felt that there was an opportunity, and went up to punch.
Huo Liaoyuan suddenly burned with raging Demon Flames all over his body, burning the vine thorns, and then hit Yu Chiyan's fist with a hammer.
Yu Chiyan seemed not to see it, and still raised his fist to meet the iron hammer. Huo Liaoyuan was happy in his heart: "After all, he has only advanced to Demon Saint for a short time, and his experience is insufficient. How strong can your Demon Power be? Actually using your fist to meet the iron hammer?"
In front of Yu Chiyan's fist was an inconspicuous silver needle. The silver needle was silent, rotating rapidly. In front of Yu Chiyan's fist, it met the iron hammer.
With a hiss, the silver needle seemed to pierce into tofu, and the Demon Power brought by the huge rotation shattered the iron hammer into pieces. Then it pierced toward Huo Liaoyuan's hand holding the hammer along the handle of the hammer. Behind the silver needle followed Yu Chiyan's fist, looking as if Yu Chiyan had shattered Huo Liaoyuan's iron hammer with one punch.
On the side, Gao Li and Xia Zhi were stunned by Yu Chiyan's punch: "The Demon Son's move is indeed extraordinary." ===== CHAPTER 45 =====
After Mu Li joined the fray, he displayed great might; one moment he was a spear, the next he was a fist, and in coordination with Mu Mian's sky-filling Demon Seeds, he beat the two old Demon Saints of the Fire Demon Sect into a steady retreat.
Yu Chiyan rested for a while, recovered his Demon Power, and immediately joined the fray, surrounding Huo Liaoyuan with Mu Yi. Soon, under the blockade of the two's Demon Power, Huo Liaoyuan's Demon Power was slowly exhausted. He was bound by countless vines extending from the ground beneath his feet. Sensing an opportunity, Yu Chiyan rushed up and threw a punch.
Huo Liaoyuan suddenly erupted with raging Demon Flames all over his body, burning away the vines, and then struck Yu Chiyan's fist with his hammer.
Yu Chiyan acted as if he hadn't seen it, still raising his fist to meet the hammer. Huo Liaoyuan felt a surge of joy: "After all, you only just advanced to Demon Saint not long ago and lack experience. How formidable can your Demon Power be? You actually use your fist to meet a hammer?"
In front of Yu Chiyan's fist was an inconspicuous silver needle. The silver needle was silent, spinning rapidly. It met the hammer right in front of Yu Chiyan's fist.
With a 'chi' sound, the silver needle seemed to pierce into tofu; the Demon Power brought by that massive rotation shattered the hammer into pieces. Then, it followed the hammer's handle and pierced toward the hand Huo Liaoyuan was using to hold the hammer. Closely following behind the silver needle was Yu Chiyan's fist, making it look as if Yu Chiyan had shattered Huo Liaoyuan's hammer with a single punch.
On the sidelines, Gao Li and Xia Zhi were stunned by Yu Chiyan's punch: "The Demon Son's strike is indeed extraordinary."
