Chapter 850: Golden Bridge, Nine Infants Bloodline (Second update, requesting all)

However, if the Demon Commander were to fall, it would not necessarily be a good thing for Li Zhangsheng.

Nevertheless, Li Zhangsheng still chose to give it his all.

During the pursuit, Li Zhangsheng cast the Swift as Wind Secret Technique on each of his fastest Demon Pets, causing their speed to surge and allowing them to begin closing the distance between them and the Demon Commander.

Roar—

Aixi was the fastest; within a few breaths, the Demon Commander entered its attack range. It opened its mouth wide, countless golden light spots gathered, and it spat out a thick Destruction Beam.

The Demon Commander did not look back, but as a Demon Commander, its sensory abilities were extremely sharp. Coupled with its exceptionally rich combat experience, it quickly made an evasive maneuver, flapping its wings hard to rise more than ten meters into the air, causing the Destruction Beam to pass beneath its feet.

In an instant, a green light sword only three feet long shot toward the Demon Commander, rotating at high speed; its velocity was even faster than the beam.

This time, the Demon Commander suddenly vanished, and when it reappeared, it had shifted a thousand meters away.

The Dimensional Anchor Secret Technique ultimately had a range limit; even the Dimensional Anchor Secret Technique cast by the Bitter King Zhao Yuanqing could only lock down an area of about ten thousand meters.

The Demon Commander-level Demon Commander was extremely fast and had flown out of the range of the Dimensional Anchor Secret Technique in that short time, which was the only reason it could use Instant Movement.

Under these circumstances, Zhao Yuanqing solemnly took out a broken, miniature bridge and spat a mouthful of Spirit Essence onto it.

Zhao Yuanqing's face turned pale, giving one the impression that his vitality was failing.

Zhao Yuanqing's vitality was already failing, with only a few years of lifespan left; using his Spirit Essence now was equivalent to shortening his lifespan, and it was unknown how much longer he could live.

In a flash, the Spirit Essence Zhao Yuanqing had sprinkled onto the miniature bridge vanished, and the miniature bridge began to emit a rich golden glow.

Zhao Yuanqing tossed it forward, and a Golden Bridge spanning ten thousand meters appeared in the air. His Demon Pets had long been prepared and landed on the Golden Bridge at top speed.

In an instant, the golden light became dazzling; Zhao Yuanqing and his Demon Pets all vanished, and when they reappeared, they were already at the end of the Golden Bridge.

In a single moment, Zhao Yuanqing and his Demon Pets had shifted a full ten thousand meters, blocking the Demon Commander's path.

As a veteran Monarch, this broken Golden Bridge could be considered Zhao Yuanqing's trump card. Although it was dilapidated and always gave the impression that it might snap at any moment, its grade had reached that of a World Wonder.

Since the broken Golden Bridge was already a World Wonder, there was no need to mention a complete one; Zhao Yuanqing estimated it was at least a Purple Mansion Rare Treasure-level item.

Because the Golden Bridge was broken, it had to be irrigated with Spirit Essence to function, allowing entities on the Golden Bridge to instantly shift ten thousand meters.

The moment he arrived, Zhao Yuanqing cast the Dimensional Anchor Secret Technique, completely solidifying the space within a ten-thousand-meter radius.

Although the Demon Commander could still break through space, it would require a certain amount of time—time enough to launch one or two waves of attacks—and the Demon Commander was naturally not foolish enough to do so.

Upon discovering that Zhao Yuanqing and his Demon Pets had blocked its path, the Demon Commander was clearly startled and instinctively wanted to go around them.

However, how could Zhao Yuanqing let it succeed? He immediately had his two Saint Grade Spirit Pets take the lead, supported by several Demon Beast-level pets, to desperately entangle the Demon Commander.

At the same time, a Secret Realm Phantom appeared in the void, and Zhao Yuanqing began to overload the release of the Heaven and Earth Great Power within the Secret Realm, causing the strength of his Demon Pets to rise significantly.

In order to keep the Demon Commander, Zhao Yuanqing could be said to have done everything in his power, not hesitating even if it meant paying a huge price.

In terms of strength, Zhao Yuanqing, who possessed two Saint Grade Spirit Pets, was stronger. Previously, the Demon Commander had joined over a dozen Great Demons to besiege Zhao Yuanqing, and they had only managed to fight him to a draw.

Of course, because the demons had different agendas, they had no coordination whatsoever, let alone the fact that they had to guard against their companions for fear of a strike from behind, so they naturally could not exert their full strength.

Zhao Yuanqing's two Saint Grade Spirit Pets were the Dragon Python and the Seven Infants. The Dragon Python went without saying, while the Seven Infants possessed seven heads similar to snakes and had a Concentrated Grade Nine Infants Bloodline.

The Nine Infants was a monster of water and fire, capable of spitting water and breathing fire. Its cry was like that of a wailing infant, and it had nine heads, hence the name Nine Infants.

【Spirit Beast Name】: Seven Infants (Mature Stage, Top-tier Exotic Beast. Comprehends the Mystery of Origin, greatly enhancing skill power; Mystery Guard: Exempts partial damage, depending on the opponent's realm. Consumed Bing Fire Essence, enhancing Fire Element skill power, with a certain burning effect, and comprehended Bing Fire Divine Thunder. Consumed Kui Water Essence, enhancing Water Element skill power, slowing the speed of enemies hit by Water Element skills, and comprehended Kui Water Divine Thunder.)

【Spirit Beast Realm】: Demon Saint 9th Rank

【Spirit Beast Race】: High-Level Monarch

【Spirit Beast Quality】: Top Grade

【Spirit Beast Bloodline】: Nine Infants Bloodline (Concentrated)

【Spirit Beast Attribute】: Water + Fire

【Spirit Beast Status】: Healthy

【Spirit Beast Weakness】: None

In terms of strength, even after absorbing the Bing Fire Essence and Kui Water Essence, the Seven Infants could still only be considered an ordinary Saint Grade Spirit Pet, and its strength was clearly inferior to the Demon Commander.

However, if it were together with the Saint Grade Dragon Python, it would not be inferior to the Demon Commander.

Among them, the Seven Infants possessed a monstrous recovery ability and naturally took the lead; even when two of its heads were instantly blown off by the Demon Commander, it still struggled to entangle the Demon Commander.

The Dragon Python stayed in the rear; due to the Call Wind and Summon Rain trait, its released Water Element skills were greatly increased, and because water overcomes fire, it dealt significant damage to the Demon Commander.

The remaining Demon Beast-level pets focused on support, occasionally releasing binding skills; even though the Demon Commander easily broke free, they occasionally produced miraculous results.

Under Zhao Yuanqing's desperate entanglement, the Demon Commander appeared somewhat anxious. It knew very well that once Li Zhangsheng and Ning Bizhen arrived, what awaited it would likely be death.

At a critical moment, the Demon Commander cast a life-burning Secret Technique, its entire body igniting with raging demonic flames. It seemed to transform into a giant of fire, crashing into the Seven Infants in a frenzy, and then turned to charge violently toward the position where Zhao Yuanqing was located.

The Saint Grade Dragon Python hurriedly cast a monstrous wave, sweeping toward the Demon Commander.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—

Water overcomes fire, but if the power of the fire is significantly stronger, the water will only be completely evaporated. As soon as the monstrous wave touched the Demon Commander, it was evaporated into a large amount of water vapor.

Bang—

The Demon Commander violently knocked away the Saint Grade Dragon Python and continued to charge toward Zhao Yuanqing.

Zhao Yuanqing did not panic and remained calm, directing several Demon Beast-level pets to intercept the Demon Commander together.

Unfortunately, they were still unable to stop the Demon Commander; they only managed to obstruct it for a moment before failing.

After determining that it was impossible to stop the Demon Commander, Zhao Yuanqing had no choice but to coldly cast the Blood Burning Secret Technique on a Demon Beast-level Red Dragon remaining by his side; even at the cost of heavy losses, he had to keep the Demon Commander.
