Chapter 447: Yin and Yang Qi Dharma Image

~10 min read 2,000 words

Zhang Nuo casually tossed the Measuring Heaven Ruler, directly offering it up into the high sky. He changed his hand seals several times, and the small ruler transformed from one into two, two into three, and three into thousands! In the blink of an eye, a dense, silver shadow of rulers formed above the Demon Emperor's head!

However, Zhang Nuo did not immediately activate the small rulers. Instead, he turned around and swung the Autumn Water Fan forcefully at the two Dharma Images chasing him from behind!

In an instant, ten thousand Wind Blades swept out, lunging toward the two Dharma Images. But to Zhang Nuo's great surprise, the two Dharma Images did not even dodge; they used their bodies to forcibly withstand the Wind Blade attack! After a round of Wind Blade shredding, the surfaces of the Dharma Images were completely undamaged! Instead, it only incited the anger of the Dharma Images!

They let out a long howl in unison, both accelerating their speed as they charged toward Zhang Nuo!

"Haha! Trying to deal with my Yin and Yang Qi Dharma Images! Don't be delusional! Even an attack ten times stronger than this is useless against them!"

From above in the sky came the Demon Emperor's arrogant laughter. Zhang Nuo listened intently without retorting. It seemed that his and Chunyangzi's conjecture was not wrong at all! These black and white twin halberds were indeed inextricably linked to the Yin and Yang Qi!

However, Zhang Nuo had no time to think about this now. The two Dharma Images behind him were acting like madmen, continuously waving their fists to attack him!

Even from a hundred zhang away, Zhang Nuo could feel the terrifying pressure from the waves of biting fist wind! While flying away, he looked up at the high sky and saw the Demon Emperor's gaze was cold and gloomy, his hand seals changing incessantly as he controlled the Dharma Images to launch attacks!

Since the "Yin and Yang Qi Dharma Images" could not be destroyed, he would have to strike at the Demon Emperor himself! With a quick turn of thought, Zhang Nuo flew toward the high sky; his original intention was to attack the Demon Emperor directly!

But the moment his figure moved, a fierce green light suddenly flashed from among the many Great Underworld Mansion cultivators, shooting straight toward his body!

Although his body was in flight, Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense did not relax even a bit! As soon as he sensed an attack coming, he gritted his teeth in anger, rolled his sleeve with a backhand motion, and two points of cold light sped out!

"Boom!" First came a roar as a Flying Sword shattered the green light attacking Zhang Nuo, while the other cold light slashed toward the person who had unleashed the Magic Treasure!

Following a scream, the cultivator who had ambushed Zhang Nuo had his chest pierced by the Flying Sword, leaving an arm-thick bloody hole, and his body fell straight toward the ground!

This cultivator's cultivation had already reached the Golden Core Middle Stage. Seeing that Zhang Nuo had a blind spot the moment he turned, he had launched the ambush! But it was precisely this strike that cost him his life!

"Do not make a move!"

The Demon Emperor in mid-air stomped his foot in anger! The battle had only just begun, and his side had already lost two Golden Core Stage cultivators. If he couldn't take down Yulong Immortal Mountain, he would have no way to answer to Qin Xiaofeng upon returning!

With this order from the Demon Emperor, everyone from the Great Underworld Mansion immediately retreated several hundred zhang, leaving a large open space in the middle! Having learned from the previous mistake, no one dared to strike easily again!

Zhang Nuo took advantage of this time to charge up again, and at the same time, he flicked his folding fan, and ten thousand Wind Blades slashed toward the Demon Emperor once more!

The range of the Wind Blade attack was extremely large, and the Demon Emperor had no choice but to charge toward the high sky for a moment. However, just as his figure moved, a barely audible word "Fall" came from Zhang Nuo's mouth!

Following this sound, the thousands of ruler shadows previously unleashed by Zhang Nuo smashed crazily toward the Demon Emperor, completely blocking his path upward! This time, the Demon Emperor was somewhat anxious; under the combined attack of the Wind Blades and ruler shadows, almost all his escape routes were sealed, leaving him with nowhere to hide!

In his desperation, he had no choice but to move his Divine Sense and summon the Yin and Yang Qi Dharma Images back to his side! The movement speed of these two Dharma Images was truly terrifyingly fast! In a few flashes, they arrived before the Demon Emperor, their four palms firmly protecting him inside!

After several roars, the Wind Blades and ruler shadows all struck the two Magic Treasures! However, just as Zhang Nuo had expected, this level of attack was like a tickle to the two Dharma Images! It had no effect at all!

On the other hand, the two Dharma Images flickered and actually merged into one above the Demon Emperor's head, while their hands grabbed the black and white twin halberds! As the twin halberds collided, they emitted a harsh, metallic clashing sound!

The moment the two Dharma Images merged into one, Zhang Nuo felt a sense of oppression! Even breathing became difficult! Compared to the twin ghost and twin saint images of Ji Gui back then, this was several times more terrifying!

If Zhang Nuo had encountered these two Dharma Images back then, he would not have had any hope of winning! Just as he hesitated for a moment, the Dharma Image above the Demon Emperor's head rushed toward him, and the two small halberds in its hands slashed at him like a falling star!

"Kid Zhang! Be careful! You must not take it head-on!"

Chunyangzi's voice rang out in Zhang Nuo's mind, fearing he would be impulsive and use brute force to resist the Dharma Image's strike! Although Zhang Nuo was angry, he was definitely not stupid to that degree! He saw the wings behind him wrap around him, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from where he stood!

The next moment, behind the Demon Emperor, space fluctuated, and Zhang Nuo flashed out. At the same time, a greyish light surged over his body, raising the "Immovable Underworld King" technique to its peak!

Around Zhang Nuo's body, a grey, ten-foot-tall phantom appeared. This phantom had a ferocious and terrifying face, and within its grey eyes, there was no emotion—nothing but cold indifference!

This move was precisely the Underworld King phantom that appeared after cultivating the "Immovable Underworld King" to the Third Layer. However, because his cultivation was insufficient, the Underworld King phantom was still very blurry!

Despite this, a massive pressure was still exerted upon the Demon Emperor! As soon as the Underworld King phantom appeared, it raised a void-like fist and smashed it toward the Demon Emperor!

This time, at such close range, it was impossible for the Demon Emperor to summon the Yin and Yang Qi Dharma Images back to defend! Since the attack came from behind, the Demon Emperor didn't even turn his head; he lunged forward, and from his back, a figure flew out, holding a small black tripod in its hands!

That figure was the Demon Emperor's External Incarnation, and that small tripod was the "Heavenly Demon Cauldron!" Forced into a corner, the Demon Emperor had no choice but to release his External Incarnation! He used the power of the incarnation to activate the "Heavenly Demon Cauldron," while he himself quickly escaped the attack range of the "Underworld King phantom" during this time!

The External Incarnation pushed with both hands, and the "Heavenly Demon Cauldron" spun rapidly, its size swelling to several zhang! It just happened to catch the fist of the Underworld King phantom!

"Hum!"

After a trembling sound, the strike launched by Zhang Nuo hit the Heavenly Demon Cauldron heavily, and the small black tripod was sent flying backward directly! Behind the small tripod, the Demon Emperor's External Incarnation was hiding! Caught off guard, the rebounding force of the Heavenly Demon Cauldron struck it squarely!

Man and tripod flew out several hundred zhang in mid-air before slowly coming to a stop! The Demon Emperor's External Incarnation grabbed the edge of the tripod with one hand, and the Heavenly Demon Cauldron quickly returned to its original size! Just as it was about to say something, a mouthful of blood sprayed out!

At the same time, the Demon Emperor's main body also paused slightly, his face becoming extremely ugly! With a movement of his Divine Sense, the External Incarnation and the Heavenly Demon Cauldron returned to his body simultaneously! His gaze gathered, looking toward the phantom on Zhang Nuo's body!

"Underworld King phantom! It... it was you who stole that ancient book from the Demon Emperor Tomb!"

The injury to his clone did not bother the Demon Emperor too much, but seeing the attack Zhang Nuo had just unleashed made him both excited and furious!

What excited him was that he finally had the whereabouts of that ancient book, and what infuriated him was that this book had been on Zhang Nuo all along, yet he had watched from the Tianjiang Plain as the other party brought it to the Xianhuan Continent! He felt infinite regret in his heart! Had he known this, why would the Demon Emperor have wasted so much effort searching for the ancient book!

Years of anxiety erupted in this instant! Gritting his teeth until they "clattered," the Demon Emperor wished he could swallow Zhang Nuo alive!

Seeing that the other party recognized the "Immovable Underworld King" technique, Zhang Nuo found it inconvenient to hide it any longer. He simply didn't retract the Underworld King phantom, and looking up at the phantom composed of grey light, a faint smile appeared on his face!

Since cultivating the "Immovable Underworld King" to the Third Layer, this was the first time he had used it. He hadn't expected that the Third Layer of the technique would have such great power! If he continued to refine it, the future would be limitless!

"Demon Emperor! It was I who snuck into the Fenzhong back then and stole that Underworld Ancient Book. You didn't expect that, did you?"

Seemingly doing this on purpose, Zhang Nuo crossed his arms over his chest, his eyes showing disdain as he said:

"To think you are a dignified generation of Demon Emperor, yet you didn't even discover this!"

The Demon Emperor was so angry he was about to explode, but he still couldn't understand how Zhang Nuo, with his Foundation Establishment Stage level back then, had managed to enter the Demon Emperor Tomb! He considered himself the one who had built the mechanisms and Restrictions of the Fenzhong, and even a Spirit Severing Stage cultivator, without knowing the method, would absolutely not be able to enter!

"What? Can't figure out how I got in?"

Looking at the Demon Emperor's near-collapse expression, Zhang Nuo said again! The Demon Emperor's eyes lit up, thinking Zhang Nuo was about to tell the truth, but the next words almost made him vomit blood!

"Even if you can't figure it out, I won't tell you! Go to hell!"

Zhang Nuo took a step forward with one foot, and his figure strangely crossed several hundred zhang of void, arriving directly in front of the Demon Emperor. At the same time, the Underworld King phantom on his body raised its fist and, with a "whoosh," smashed it toward the top of the Demon Emperor's head!

Seeing this, the Demon Emperor had no time to consider the previous matters. He moved his Divine Sense, hurriedly letting the Yin and Yang Qi Dharma Images take this blow!
