Chapter 1724: Aldo, Such a Good Person

The humanoid Foreign Demons were nearly identical to humans in their physical structure.

Struck in such a vital spot, excruciating pain immediately spread throughout his entire body.

One must know that some pains are unbearable even if you are an Immortal Emperor!

"Ah! Bastard!"

Aldo let out a soul-shattering scream, demonic qi surging around him as he raised his palm and fiercely struck at Er Gou.

Er Gouzi reacted too slowly and was hit squarely by the palm, tumbling down with a wail.

After swatting Er Gouzi away, Aldo didn't even have time to deliver a finishing blow; he hurriedly used demonic qi to heal his injured areas.

The dual assault on his body and mind ignited true fury in this Demon Lord, who was usually high above all others.

"Something like an ant... could actually injure me!" Rage blazed in Aldo's eyes as demonic qi churned wildly, forming a massive demonic qi barrier around him. "All of you must die!"

On the other side, Xu Que was still observing the battle when he saw Er Gouzi plummet from the sky, crashing onto the ground like a meteor.

"Ouch, this Divine Venerable has been beaten to death..." Er Gouzi struggled to crawl out of the pit, angrily shouting at Xu Que, "This Divine Venerable has completed the mission; hurry up and return my Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures!"

Xu Que looked Er Gouzi up and down, smiling brightly as he said, "What Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures? This poor monk knows nothing of any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures."

Er Gouzi immediately widened his eyes: "Damn it! You stinky monk, are you trying to renege on the deal!"

"Amitabha, this poor monk only said I would use the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures as fuel; did I ever say that if you stalled the Demon Lord, I would return the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to you?"

Er Gouzi was momentarily speechless; when it came to shamelessness, he was ultimately a tier below.

"Where on your body does it hurt?" Xu Que pressed.

Er Gouzi irritably covered his head: "This Divine Venerable hurts all over and feels like he's about to die; hurry up and bring a hundred portions of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to save my life!"

"Oh, it seems you're fine then."

Xu Que was somewhat astonished; Er Gouzi had taken a direct blow from an Immortal Emperor and suffered no ill effects whatsoever.

Yet earlier, when this lad had ended up with the Eternal Clan, he had clearly been severely injured?

Who was so capable that they could injure Er Gouzi so severely?

Watching Er Gouzi fooling around as usual, a bold idea surged in Xu Que's heart.

Could this dog possibly be some damn pet of a Dao Venerable or Dao Emperor?

Otherwise, a flesh body this resistant to beating would simply defy the Great Dao itself!

Boom—!

Just as he was pondering, a sudden roar erupted in the sky; the surrounding cannon fire seemed blocked by something, detonating far away.

Boundless demonic qi surged wildly like a long river, blocking all the surrounding firepower.

"Today, the Eternal Clan shall surely be destroyed!" Aldo appeared like a calamity god descending upon the mortal world, his eyes filled with a ferocious look.

The cannon fire struck the demonic qi and instantly exploded, unable to even get close to Aldo.

Xu Que let out a long sigh, pressing his palms together: "Amitabha, it seems this poor monk must personally take action..."

Aldo paused, thinking he had misheard.

A mere Immortal Venerable Mid-stage actually daring to imagine fighting him?

Has this human Cultivator lost his mind?

"You ant, this Demon could with a single finger..."

Before he could finish speaking, a black shadow flashed before him with lightning speed.

Bang!

A heavy force slammed violently into Aldo's chest, actually forcing him to take a step backward.

Aldo's face was full of surprise as he looked at Xu Que standing before him, exclaiming in astonishment, "Your strength is actually so astonishing; it seems you are qualified to fight this Demon."

Xu Que grinned: "It's not over yet... Righteousness Sealing Demon Sutra!"

In an instant, a wave of energy erupted around him; his eyes gradually turned red, faint arcs of golden-red lightning appeared, and silver-white hair even began to grow on his head.

Of course, Xu Que originally had hair; now he had simply removed his bald disguise.

Sensing Xu Que's continuously rising aura, Aldo's expression changed immediately.

"What Technique is this! How can it be so powerful!"

In his perception, Xu Que's current power was infinitely approaching that of an Immortal Emperor, even subtly reaching the level of a One-Path Immortal Emperor!

How was this possible?

One must know that the reason an Immortal Emperor can crush Cultivators of other realms is that after mastering the Great Dao, the amplification of their power becomes geometric.

Moreover, possessing the power of the Great Dao means that as long as a Cultivator remains beneath the Heavenly Dao, they are constrained by the Great Dao.

Even if you are a top-tier genius Immortal Venerable, as long as you have not yet touched the Great Dao, no matter how much of a Monster you are, you will be completely suppressed by an Immortal Emperor.

The power of the two is simply not on the same level of Existence.

Yet the feeling Xu Que gave him now was exactly like that of a true Immortal Emperor!

"Heh, now let's have a good fight!" The corners of Xu Que's mouth curled into an exaggerated, eerie arc; like a mad demon, he suddenly punched forward.

"Bang!"

The fist landed directly on Aldo's chest, generating a wild energy that suddenly exploded outward.

Wherever the fist force reached, the Void cracked, covered in dense cracks like glass, and even several strands of Void Gale rushed in!

Aldo's face turned pale; even with the Flesh Body strength of a One-Path Immortal Emperor, he felt intense pain sweeping through his chest!

Too terrifying!

This human Cultivator actually possessed enough Flesh Body strength to threaten an Immortal Emperor!

Although he was merely the weakest among Demon Lords, he should not be someone an Immortal Venerable could threaten!

A strong sense of humiliation spread through his heart; Aldo roared loudly: "Scoundrel!"

With that, he raised his fist and began trading blows with Xu Que.

The two, like wild beasts, began exchanging frenzied punches mid-air.

Aldo was frenzied, but Xu Que was even madder!

Relying on the system's recovery function, Xu Que didn't dodge Aldo's fists at all; even if he had to take a blow squarely, he would return a strike.

After activating the Righteousness Sealing Demon Sutra, not only were his strength and speed greatly amplified, but his body also received reinforcement.

Moreover, the power driving the Righteousness Sealing Demon Sutra now was Chakra formed by the fusion of Immortal Yuan, Demon Qi, and Dharma Power, making its might even more astonishing!

After several rounds of clashing blasts, Aldo discovered with shock that he seemingly was not Xu Que's match!

"This, this is impossible!" Disbelief filled Aldo's eyes. "You are merely an Immortal Venerable at Middle Stage; how could you possibly fight this Demon to a standstill!"

"A human... oh no, a Demon must also learn to accept reality," Xu Que said with a Cold Smile. "If you can't win, then you can't win; there's nothing shameful about that."

Watching the Acting Cool Points rapidly rising in the system, Xu Que felt fully satisfied.

This Aldo truly is a good person...

I must be careful; if I beat him to death, I won't be able to collect many Acting Cool Points...
