Chapter 1218: Invasion of the Great Demons
Repeated self-denial, constant improvement, that's Tangyu's character. Until he reaches what satisfies him, he absolutely won't stop.
Though every strike of his sword seemed extremely powerful to Sun Wukong, rivaling even the eighth axe of Pangu's Nine Axes, Tangyu remained unsatisfied. He felt it wasn't enough, not perfect. He craved perfection, true perfection.
Ten more days passed by in the blink of an eye, and Tangyu was still immersed in contemplation, yet to finalize the third style.
Finally, Sun Wukong, who had been idly drinking, suddenly raised his eyebrow, jumping up swiftly, his eyes sparking: "Quite a few are coming. Seems like they're well prepared. My hands have long been itching for a fight."
Tangyu also opened his eyes, his gaze swept forward, revealing a scene shrouded in demonic aura. No fewer than a dozen Zifu Great Demons were charging at them, each one exuding powerful auras. Especially the leading Zifu Great Demon, bearing two strange antennae, whose whole body glistened in a terrifying green light, with eerie emerald eyes.
"An eighth layer Zifu Great Demon. Seems like the Yao Race came well-prepared this time. The others are all seventh level Zifu, amounting to twelve, along with this eighth layer Zifu Great Demon, making it thirteen Zifu Great Demons. Hmph, having suffered such a loss from us, the Yao Race has finally decided to step up. They certainly think highly of us, dispatching such a lineup this time. Nice, nice. Interesting." Tangyu coldly smiled.
If it were him before, Tangyu surely would have been startled, perhaps immediately ready to flee, but now he was filled with ambition, not a hint of anxiety. Instead, his heart brimming with fighting spirit, profoundly heightened, surging.
Originally, Tangyu wouldn't fear a Great Power of the eighth layer Zifu Realm, and now he had considerably improved his strength, breaking through to the eighth axe of Pangu's Nine Axes. Though the third style of Bright Moon Sword Art hadn't reached perfection, it still formed a certain technique, its power astonishing. Tangyu now pined for a battle, wishing to complete the creation of the Bright Moon Sword Art's third style through a fierce fight.
So, when thirteen Yao Race Great Powers aggressively charged in, it naturally stirred a rush of excitement in Tangyu's heart.
Sun Wukong's fighting spirit soared to the sky; he is never afraid when it comes to battle.
In no time, the thirteen Zifu Great Demons slaughtered their way to Tangyu and Sun Wukong, surrounding them at once. These thirteen Zifu Great Demons varied in appearance, demon aura soaring to the skies, including three female demons, exceedingly seductive. Upon arrival, all pulled out their weapons, faintly assembling a killing formation to encircle Tangyu and Sun Wukong.
Tangyu and Sun Wukong both stood up, brandishing their weapons, brimming with battle spirit as they faced the thirteen Zifu Great Demons. Tangyu smirked: "Waited for so long, and your Yao Race finally dared to send people. I thought you all turned into tortoises hiding in your shells. Not bad, you do think highly of us, sending such a lineup. However, since you've come, none of you should think about leaving. A mere Yao Race, daring to challenge the supreme dignity of my Human Clan, truly senseless. Daring to step onto the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect's territory, I'll annihilate you without leaving a scrap!"
Tangyu's words incited quite a fury among the Yao Race, each glaring with cold, angry eyes.
The leading eighth layer Zifu Great Demon gripped an oversized Giant Sword, towering over two meters in height, more than fifty centimeters wide, with protruding sharp teeth along the blade, resembling tusks. In rage, the two strange antennae atop his head waved, seemingly about to unleash boundless fury as he coldly glared at Tangyu, as though wanting to devour Tangyu alive: "You sharp-tongued brat, today is the day of your demise. Merely you two younglings trying to block my race's army, simply courting death. Today, I shall grant you your wish."
Tangyu laughed coldly: "Courting death, you say? I say it's you who are courting death. Your Yao Race army couldn't help but be swept clean by the two of us, crushed utterly, fleeing back to the Dark Nether Wilderness. With us guarding here, your Yao Race won't cause any waves. If it's a fight you want, then come."
With that, Tangyu took the initiative to strike first.
As Tangyu moved, Sun Wukong naturally didn't hesitate, swinging the Jingu Bang into a sky-shattering strike, intending to collapse the entire firmament.
"Hmph, seeking death!" The eighth layer Zifu Great Demon coldly snorted, his Giant Sword slashing down, stirring the starry river, unleashing a sinister flare, intent on tearing everything apart, charging toward Tangyu and Sun Wukong.
The Yuguang Sword in Tangyu's hand executed the basic movements 'chop, slash, intercept, flick, lift, hook, stab', the seven most basic maneuvers, yet in Tangyu's hands, they shone brightly, channeling the Might of the Great Dao of the Yin Yang Path and Sword Great Path, allowing the impact of the might of the Great Dao to crash down overwhelmingly, pushing Tangyu's sword force to an incredibly fearsome level.
Tangyu met the eighth layer Zifu Great Demon head-on with a strike, while Sun Wukong charged at the remaining twelve seventh level Zifu Great Demons, their cooperation exceedingly seamless.
Indeed, those twelve seventh level Zifu Great Demons executed a joint formation technique, forming a killing formation, their power instantly amplified. Initially, their combined force equated to that of an eighth layer Zifu Great Demon, but with the joint formation's might, their intimidation seemed to rival the eighth layer Zifu Great Demon, even surpassing it slightly.
Tangyu made his move, clashing intensely with the Great Demon of the Eighth Layer of the Zifu Realm, suppressing the offensive of this formidable foe. This battle allowed Tangyu to gauge the power of his newly-created technique. The power was decent, surpassing even the sharpness of the Eighth Axe of the Pangu Nine Axes. However, Tangyu was still dissatisfied; it was less than perfect, not meeting the standard he held in his heart.
The pursuit of excellence was a steadfast belief in Tangyu's heart.
The Great Demon from the Eighth Layer of the Zifu Realm raised an eyebrow, his eyes gleaming with a green light, "A Zifu First Layer level, able to match my strength, what kind of evil demon is this? It's despicable for the Human Clan to produce such a remarkable figure. If allowed to grow, it would truly be a terrifying matter. It's disgraceful. I, You Chi, swore a military oath to eliminate these two youngsters; if I return defeated, how can I continue to survive?"
"These two pesky youngsters thwart the grand plans of my Yao Race, killing numerous Great Demons within our Tribe. If this vendetta remains unavenged, how can the Yao Race maintain its honor? This time we've deployed such power, and if we cannot take down these two, how do I, Yu Chi, still have the face to live?"
"If these two aren't killed, I, You Chi, will never rest—kill!"
You Chi was utterly enraged and crazed. Being a Great Demon of the Eighth Layer of the Zifu Realm, he fully unleashed his strength, his murderous intent terrifyingly overwhelming. Moreover, he took out several treasures, emitting beams of terrifying light aimed at Tangyu. Each beam could be fatal for Tangyu; a single careless move could mean his death.
Tangyu's gaze was cold, his heart calm as water. This battle served as an opportunity to refine his Bright Moon Sword Art Third Style. His thoughts were engaged in combat, performing flawlessly. The Bright Moon Sword Art excelled in both defense and offense, reaching a notably high level.
Defense was flawless, offense was remarkably sharp. Thus, You Chi struggled to break through, finding it hard to hurt Tangyu.
Tangyu employed all his techniques, occasionally launching Square Inch Kill, posing some threat to You Chi, making him cautious in confronting Tangyu. With Ground Shrinking occasionally applied, the damage was significant. Even You Chi was injured once, though his strength was considerable, with several powerful treasures in his possession, enabling him to face Tangyu's diverse techniques without suffering serious injuries.
"Hmph, troublesome youth, you truly have some skills. Achieving such prowess at your age is indeed commendable. However, it's useless. No matter how formidable your techniques are, your realm is too low. You're merely a First Layer in the Zifu Realm, far too immature to contend with me. You can't wear me down. Continuing will only lead to your demise. Unleash anything else you have," You Chi said.
Being pressured by a young man from the First Layer of the Zifu Realm made him immensely furious, incensed beyond belief.
Tangyu pursed his lips, "This You Chi is indeed very strong; even with all my methods, I can't suppress him. Fighting on, I wouldn't suffer losses. I possess the Divine Demon Body Refinement, allowing me to exhibit limitless power. He can't out-consume me. This battle is excellent for me. I can utilize it well to greatly enhance my Bright Moon Sword Art Third Style. I must seize this opportunity diligently."
Tangyu once again launched a powerful assault, endlessly transforming his Bright Moon Sword Art Third Style, continuously verifying, enhancing, perfecting, pursuing a state of perfection, striving for excellence.
Meanwhile, Sun Wukong was not faring well either, completely overwhelmed by the twelve Great Demons of the Zifu Realm, unable even to gain an advantage, remaining on the losing end. If not for his thick skin, he might have already fallen. This enraged Sun Wukong greatly, making him furious beyond measure.
Fortunately, Sun Wukong's defense was robust. Although the twelve Great Demons could overpower, they couldn't truly kill Sun Wukong. Killing him wasn't easy.
In such dire circumstances, Sun Wukong's potential was vastly stimulated, forcing him to advance, enhancing his combat power, thriving in adversity was his unique trait.
"Let's fight to the bitter end, join forces to eliminate these two. Without their deaths, where is the dignity of our Yao Race?"
"Kill them; they can't hold out much longer!"
The Great Demons of the Zifu Realm were also filled with fervor, their killing intent overwhelming.
You Chi's demonic energy soared, employing every tactic to capture and kill Tangyu.
The battle grew fiercer, ravaging the land within a radius of ten miles, leaving the landscape devastated, a shocking sight.
