NOVEL NEXT Chapter 125: Fierce Battle
Rumble!
Wu Jiu waved his sleeve, emitting a divine light.
The shining divine light roared across the sea of fire, sweeping towards the black-clothed Sword Cultivator.
"Wu Jiu... Don't!"
Jiang Huang, sitting on the throne, suddenly changed color, wanting to shout to stop him.
Although her main soul had just awakened, the Divine Sea Memory was shared...
She knew that Xie Xuanyi, on the surface, was just a Yin God but had terrifying powers to contend with a Yang God in battle!
In the North Sea Reeds, this guy had brutally killed the Taoist Great True Man Chong Kan of the Eighth Heaven using various methods! No matter how weak Chong Kan was or how heavily injured... such strength cannot be matched by a newly ascended Yang God!
It was too late.
Even if spoken in advance, Wu Jiu would not heed it.
The divine light of the Golden Crow struck the flying sword.
The black-clothed Sword Cultivator neither dodged nor evaded, and amidst the thunderous roar, countless molten lava burst forth, engulfing the figure of Xie Xuanyi—
Splatter.
Molten lava rained down, but the sword-suspended figure suddenly disappeared.
"Hmm?"
Wu Jiu furrowed his brow, a hint of surprise appeared in his Heart Lake.
In his view.
It was perfectly normal for a Yin God to be unable to avoid his attack, theoretically... after this blow, Xie Xuanyi should have sunk into the molten lava sea and perished, vanishing completely. Yet, a strand of unease lingered in his heart.
"Wu Jiu! Behind you!"
The next moment.
The female Great Demon who walked out from the Heavenly Phoenix Palace portal suddenly raised her voice.
Wu Jiu's pupils contracted, and he suddenly turned, finding that the sword-suspended figure had somehow reached his back, and the flying sword was rushing towards him at extreme speed—
Is this guy insane? Does he want to kill a Yang God Great Demon with a Yin God body?!
A momentary blankness arose in Wu Jiu's mind.
Buzz!
The sword sounded.
Xie Xuanyi raised his hand, swiping through, and the Lifebound Flying Sword [Chen Ke] turned into a streak of golden line, instantly slicing across Wu Jiu's neck!
In this instant—
A strong life-and-death crisis emerged in Wu Jiu's Heart Lake.
"Roar!"
Wu Jiu roared angrily, raised both hands, accepting the strike in an extremely humiliating posture.
The female Great Demon's warning was particularly timely.
Clang!
The sound of gold and iron clashing exploded at the volcano's bottom. This sword strike was extremely powerful, cutting sparks from Wu Jiu's arms. The skin of this Yang God Great Demon was shattered and severed, and countless blood sprayed into the air... this strike did not end. After the slash, Xie Xuanyi successfully collided into Wu Jiu's embrace, raising his palm and seemingly casually pressing on the chest of the newly promoted Great Venerable.
Swallowing Yuan Scroll, Swallowing Dao Scroll, activated simultaneously!
Annihilation Dao Realm, unleashed entirely!
With a booming explosion—
Wu Jiu spat a large mouthful of blood, his whole body blasted backward, plunging straight into the molten lava sea, sparking countless bursts of fire...
Hiss hiss hiss.
The molten lava churned, emitting waves of hot smoke.
Unfortunately, Wu Jiu was ultimately a Yang God Great Demon, and both "Golden Crow" and "Phoenix" have a nature to love heat. This underground molten lava would not claim his life.
Soon.
A head emerged from the molten lava.
Wu Jiu surfaced, hair disheveled, slowly rising.
His face was pale, his expression extremely unsightly, and the splendid, dazzling golden battle armor was ripped by the Annihilation Dao Realm, completely losing its former glory.
This Yang God from the Heavenly Phoenix Palace emerged, staring fixedly at the black-clothed Sword Cultivator's figure suspended in the air, trembling all over... he could not believe that he was falling behind in a fight against a human race's Yin God Venerable.
"Hehehe..."
Wu Jiu clenched his fist, his knuckles cracking.
The molten lava flowed like water, streaming down his skin.
A streak of golden radiant light appeared at his brow, and with its emergence, the air of the entire volcano world became oppressive, stagnant.
"..."
Xie Xuanyi examined the golden radiance, his expression becoming somewhat serious.
Could this be the bloodline divine skill of the Golden Crow Clan?
This divine skill should not be underestimated; even before manifestation, his Heart Lake felt a wave of unease.
"Wu Jiu!"
The female Great Demon's voice interrupted the divine skill's aggregation.
She spoke again, her voice sharp and cold.
"Don't forget the purpose of our coming here... the Heavenly Phoenix Palace has expended great resources to open this portal, is it just to fight?"
Due to the resonance of Phoenix Blood and the throne, Jinli Mountain became the anchor point.
The Heavenly Phoenix Palace is located in the far north of the Demon Country.
Separated by thousands of miles.
Opening this portal requires an immense amount of primordial energy—
The Demon Country is inherently lacking in primordial energy, and this time opening the door, transmitting three Yang Gods at once, aims for but one purpose!
Successfully take Jiang Huang away.
This is the primary mission of the three Great Demons.
"Dead Phoenix, don't be angry... little Wu has never suffered such loss since he began cultivating, anger is understandable."
Among the three Great Demons, one who had remained silent now spoke with a smile.
This Great Demon was clad in red armor, and his aura was even stronger than Wu Jiu... this was not a newly ascended young Yang God but a powerful being who had attained Dao long ago.
He looked at the young Sword Cultivator before him with much appreciation: "Xie Xuanyi, I've heard your name, you're indeed an extraordinary genius... However, you have an even more extraordinary master."
Xie Xuanyi is Da Sui Sword Palace's greatest genius in a thousand years.
Whether in Great Chu or Da Li, everyone knows, yet everyone does not.
But...
In the Demon Country, Xie Xuanyi's name is not so celebrated.
Because every twenty or thirty years, or once in sixty years, the great cultivators of the Demon Country would hear the names of a few remarkable youths.
Initially, the Demon Country spared no efforts to eradicate young geniuses who might threaten themselves.
Later, those Great Venerables discovered such human race young geniuses weren't so terrifying. Perhaps due to racial traits, those human cultivators exhibited extremely powerful battle talent at Cave Heaven Realm and Yin God Realm, but progressed further, and rather became more powerless. These celebrated young geniuses mostly faded into obscurity after leaving a stunning mark...
Xiao Yaozi, Zhao Chunyang, these legendary figures are what the Demon Country truly fears.
During the Battle of Poison, only two or three individuals dealt significant blows to the Demon Country.
"With Zhao Chunyang's cultivation... tearing through the void from Da Sui Sword Palace to arrive here should take around a hundred breaths, maybe even less."
The red-armored Great Demon sighed deeply, speaking leisurely: "Seeing how calm you are, have you already used the 'Lotus Token' to send a message? If the message has been sent, the time left for us might be only half."
Xie Xuanyi stood on the sword, remaining silent.
"Dead Phoenix, Wu Jiu."
The red-armored Great Demon smiled, speaking: "Take the owner of the throne back to the Heavenly Phoenix Palace... leave the rest to me."
He stepped forward, standing over the molten lava sea, his gaze locking onto Xie Xuanyi.
For years, the Demon Country has desperately wanted to eliminate such a genius.
Someone who can fight a Yang God within the Yin God Realm...
Such power, unheard of.
If this young man is allowed to ascend, the Demon Country will face a new, very young, and persistently in long peak "Zhao Chunyang"!
