Jimat itu berubah menjadi cahaya merah yang mengelilinginya, meningkatkan kecepatan teknik pergerakannya secara dramatis, dan langsung meninggalkan Li Hao jauh di belakang.Li Hao, yang terkejut, segera menyadari apa yang telah dilakukan lawannya. Wajahnya dipenuhi niat membunuh, ia tidak berhenti dan terus mengejar.Dengan Feng yang mengawasi Jalan Gerbang Surgawi dan baru saja melalui pertempuran semacam itu, pasukan Iblis kemungkinan hanya dapat menyisakan satu ahli Alam Studi Tertinggi sebagai batas mereka.Ia tak perlu lagi mengkhawatirkan keselamatan Kota Cangya. Ia bertekad mengejar dan membantai naga tua itu sampai ke ujung bumi.Kalau tidak, dengan pihak lawan yang terluka parah, jika dia tidak lagi ditempatkan di Kota Cangya, kemungkinan besar musuh akan memanfaatkan kesempatan itu untuk menghancurkan tempat yang telah mempermalukannya.Jadi, kematian adalah suatu keharusan!!Li Hao melacak qi iblis, melepaskan kekuatan penuhnya saat ia mengejar.Dengan terus menerus memanfaatkan Kekuatan Langit dan Bumi di sekitarnya melalui Vena Langit dan Bumi sebagai tenaga pendorong yang tiada henti, dia belum menggunakan Kekuatan Abadi, namun pengisian ulang dari Vena Langit dan Bumi ini setara dengan setengah dari Kekuatan Abadi itu sendiri.Dia dapat menggunakan kekuasaannya secara berlebihan tanpa ada keraguan.Dalam sekejap mata, mengikuti qi iblis, Li Hao telah mengejar sejauh ribuan mil!Menyeberangi kota, gunung, sungai, dan danau, sejauh sepuluh ribu mil, Li Hao akhirnya melihat naga tua itu sekali lagi.”Dasar bocah menyebalkan, kapankah ini akan berakhir!”Lu Yuan, melihat Li Hao dengan cepat mendekat dari belakang, merasakan suasana hatinya yang baru saja tenang kembali menegang, terkejut sekaligus marah.Dia tidak mampu berhenti dan menyembuhkan diri, tetapi terus berlari maju dengan kecepatan penuh.Dia berencana untuk bergegas ke medan perang garis depan untuk melihat apakah dia bisa bergabung dengan Nona Yin untuk membunuh Santo Pedang Gurun Agung terlebih dahulu sebelum beralih menghadapi Li Hao. Sekarang setelah Li Hao mengejarnya, dia tidak punya pilihan selain membawanya ke sana.”Bayangkan kau dari Klan Naga, apa kau hanya tahu cara melarikan diri?!”Saat dia mengejar Lu Yuan, Li Hao mengejeknya dengan keras, takut kalau Lu Yuan akan menggunakan Jimat Roh suci untuk melarikan diri lagi.Lu Yuan meraung, “Aku akan membuatmu membayar dengan nyawamu nanti!””Jika kau mampu, berbaliklah sekarang!””Ah, dasar bocah terkutuk, aku pasti akan membunuhmu!”Lu Yuan hampir gila karena marah. Sudah terhina, ia merasa sangat malu diolok-olok Li Hao.Bang!Saat mereka berbicara, Li Hao dengan cepat menutup kesenjangan tersebut.Tiba-tiba dia berakselerasi dan melontarkan pukulan dahsyat.
The punch thundered, striking directly on Lu Yuan’s tailbone, sending Lu Yuan’s body tumbling forward as he was flung through the air.
Fuming inside, Lu Yuan didn’t stop to fight. He pulled out two more talismans, not the Sacred Spirit Talismans but regular Spirit Talismans, which were much less effective.
The talismans burned, lifting his body as he rushed forward once again.
With another escape, darting for thousands of miles, Lu Yuan heard the clashing sounds of battle and saw the far ends of the plain where the Liangzhou Human Race had erected a second line of defense.
Outside the defense line, a sea of Demons surrounded it!
Yet, at this moment, the Demon armies weren’t moving but simply encircling the line, seemingly waiting for something.
He knew they were waiting for his reinforcements. After all, the Bird Demon from Tianji Palace had mentioned that these creatures were awaiting his arrival to breach the formation.
“Damn it, where is Ms. Yin? Hasn’t she arrived yet?!” Lu Yuan raged.
They agreed to have a Great Void Realm warrior lead the way, yet it seemed he had run into the prickliest existence in Liangzhou.
Having run into him was one thing, but the truly infuriating part was that he had not managed to defeat him.
Seeing the Great Void Realm display such incompetence made his anger surge even more.
However, before he could vent his fury, the whistling sounds from behind were rapidly approaching.
Lu Yuan glanced back, spotting Li Hao’s chasing figure and his anger soared. He rushed toward the vast Demon army, bellowing:
“Demons, heed my call, come and quickly slay this Human!”
His roar thundered through the wilderness, spreading for miles.
The Demons resting on the plains were all alarmed.
And all the people on top of the walls within the defense line also heard that thunderous roar.
Monarch Bai and other Great Void Realm warriors from the Dragon Clan, as well as the Demon King, heard Lu Yuan’s angry shout. They felt puzzled and astonished, turning their gaze to see a True Dragon hastening in their direction.
However, at this moment, Lu Yuan’s scales were blasted off in many areas, revealing bloodied flesh caked with dirt, appearing quite disheveled.
“??”
The many Demon Kings were baffled.
What was going on?
Lu Yuan, at the Ultimate Study Realm, had taken on the True Form and yet, found himself in such a tattered state?!
Soon, they noticed a rapidly approaching shadow behind Lu Yuan.
Monarch Bai’s eyes focused, and when he recognized the black shadow, his pupils shrank with shock.
Was it that ferocious young man?
How had he gotten here?
Wait.
Lu Yuan of the Ultimate Study Realm was being chased by him?!
Monarch Bai was momentarily stunned upon receiving this revelation.
On the distant city walls.
Li Tian Gang, Li Xuanli, and others were also startled by the roar, the dawn’s first light shining down on them as they looked in its direction.
“It’s the Demon King!”Melihat sosok Lu Yuan, mata Li Tian Gang dan yang lainnya menyipit karena terkejut.Terutama Li Tian Gang, yang telah bertempur melintasi negeri dan menggantikan posisi Li Jun Ye sebagai Naga Sejati, memerintah Keluarga Li, dia tahu lebih banyak dan mengenali sekilas bahwa Raja Iblis adalah tetua tertua di Gerbang Naga!
Lu Yuan!
Itu dia!Raja Iblis dari Alam Studi Tertinggi benar-benar ada di sini?!Jantung Li Tian Gang berdebar kencang karena terkejut, tetapi mengingat Nona Yin dari Alam Kekosongan Besar telah bertemu dengannya sebelumnya, kehadiran tetua dari Gerbang Naga ini tampaknya tidak begitu mengejutkan.”Hmm?”Pada saat itu, Li Tian Gang dan Li Xuanli melihat sosok hitam mendekat di belakang Lu Yuan.Mereka memfokuskan pandangan mereka dan dengan cepat mengenali wujud sosok itu.”Hao Er?”Li Xuanli tercengang.Li Tian Gang juga tercengang.
“Quick, surround and kill him!”
In mid-air, Lu Yuan rushed swiftly, his body spinning and speeding forward.
He roared in anger, commanding Demon Kings outside the city to assist, but even more so, he wanted to provoke Li Hao’s vulnerabilities, thereby taking the chance to strike.
Hearing the enraged shout of this top elder from the Dragon Gate, Monarch Bai and other Demon Kings displayed faces full of astonishment and doubt.
This was Lu Yuan!
Well-known among Demon Kings, an existence of the Ultimate Study Realm, did he really need assistance?
“Even Lu Yuan can’t deal with that brat?!”
Monarch Bai’s face was filled with disbelief.
The killing moves of the Ultimate Study Realm were incredibly strong, capable of easily killing a life from the Defying Fate Realm.
And yet, Li Hao was the one chasing him?
He thought back to when the elder said he would go to Heavenly Gate Pass to deal with that glaring thorn.
Could it be, he had been chased all the way from Heavenly Gate Pass?
He felt his heart wrench violently, filled with frustration and fury.
What kind of son had Li Tian Gang actually brought into this world?
He had sent people to assassinate him repeatedly in the past, each time using nearly foolproof methods, yet they all failed.
The first assassination attempt was by a person from the Zhou Tian Realm.
The hardest part of that assassination was infiltrating the Divine General Mansion.
Yet, they managed to infiltrate successfully.
Back then, the child was only six years old, and it seemed like a sure thing, but that Zhou Tian Realm assassin failed.
Later, he sent a pair of Fifteen Li Realm Jiao Generals to ambush and assassinate, two Jiao Generals against a fourteen-year-old child. Even Li Junye of the Li Family wasn’t in the Fifteen Li Realm at fourteen, right?
Such an assassination, once an opportunity was seized, was bound to result in certain death!
Yet again, it ended in failure, and they were counter-killed instead.
Only through messages conveyed by Tianji Palace did he learn that the young boy hid his strength, being the most monstrously talented cultivator the Li Family had seen in hundreds of years.
Shortly after that, as the battlefield in Northern Yan came to an end and the various Demon Races started to clamor for a dispersal, he was also reprimanded by a top elder from the Holy Palace.
While harboring that hatred, he heard various news about Qingzhou and the Li Family.
Until now.
The infant in swaddling clothes whom he had repeatedly failed to assassinate was now, right under his nose, chasing the top elder from Dragon Gate?!
Monarch Bai felt the world was upside down, unable to believe this was real.
But Lu Yuan’s earth-shaking roar was indeed real and tangible, nor was the terrifying dragon’s authority he emitted any bit false.
However, Monarch Bai did not take action.
After thousands of years of cultivation, he was one of the highly gifted among the Demon Kings. How could he not see that Lu Yuan wasn’t summoning them to surround and kill Li Hao but was… asking for help!
If even Lu Yuan could not overcome him, wouldn’t they die even quicker if they joined the fight?
Monarch Bai had no more opportunities to defy fate. Thinking of Li Hao’s terrifying Sword Array from before, he felt as though he was nailed to the ground, as if he hadn’t heard the call.
Demon Kings from the Great Void Realm also realized the situation was grim. They had heard about the emerging young general from Heavenly Gate Pass; Tianji Palace had sent them a lot of intelligence on that young heroic general, which was why they specifically avoided the pass, letting only Lu Yuan go and execute the beheading.
Now, however, the enemy had failed.
“Great Elder!”
While Demon Kings of the Great Void Realm hesitated, several Demon Kings from the Dragon Gate were the first to act, rushing towards Lu Yuan at high speed, while shouting at the other Demon Kings:
“What are you all dawdling for? Is a little human brat scaring our Demon Alliance into dissolving?!”
With these words, many Great Void Realm Demon Kings flushed with shame, feeling humiliated.
Indeed.
The renown of a youth had actually scared them into stagnation?
“Kill!”
“Help Brother Lu Yuan, kill that human kid!”
Great Void Realm Demon Kings also started taking action, one of them swiftly sending out a distress signal for the Great Void Realm.
Originally, they hadn’t planned to call for help, only transmitting signals through Tianji Palace for Lu Yuan to quickly arrive and break the Array.
Now, with Lu Yuan defeated, they could only call for help.
This call for help would inevitably affect Ms. Yin, who was battling the Great Desert Sword Saint, but there was no time for such concerns.
As numerous Demon Kings dashed out, the overwhelming Demonic Qi of the monsters besieged outside the defensive Array all surged out, heading towards the young man speeding through the air.
Atop the city walls, within the Array.
Li Xuanli and Li Tian Gang finally came to their senses, their faces full of shock.
Li Hao was actually chasing that Demon King!
How was it possible?!
Both Li Xuanli and Li Tian Gang were somewhat stunned, their shock mingled with confusion.
This was beyond their imagination and understanding.
That was a Demon King!
How old was Li Hao?
He was only fifteen this year. When he suppressed all the Grandmasters, he was only in the Heavenly Human Realm. In less than a year since then, even if Li Hao was monstrously talented, stepping into the Three Immortal Realms within a year, could he really confront a Demon King?
Yet the truth was right before their eyes.
As the Demon Kings collectively charged out, aiming to hunt down Li Hao, Li Xuanli urgently said:
“Quick, form the Array, let’s go annihilate the Demon tide, and draw those Demon Kings here!”
They wanted to help Li Hao but couldn’t. Not only could they not make it in time, but that was also Demon King level combat, something they couldn’t interfere with.
Li Tian Gang suddenly turned to Li Hongzhuang and said, “Give me five battle flags!”
“What are you going to do?” Li Hongzhuang asked in astonishment.
Li Tian Gang retorted angrily, “Of course, I’m going to save that damn kid. Doesn’t he know what place this is? He even dares to come here. Give me the battle flags, quick!”
Li Hongzhuang quickly said, “I will come with you.”
“You and Fifth Brother go kill the Demon tide, draw the other Demon Kings back. If they return, immediately retreat back into the Array!”
Li Tian Gang then turned to the Thousand-Mechanism Taoist, “Senior, I’ll have to trouble you to help protect from the sidelines!”
Ever since they intimidated those Demon Kings with the battle flags yesterday, and the Demon tide camped outside the defense line, they were at a loss.
The demons were waiting for strong reinforcements to arrive, and so were they.
However, Dayu State was hundreds of thousands of miles away from here, not a distance that could be covered in a moment.
The closest Divine General Mansions were those of the Li Family and the Xia Family.
But Li Tian Gang knew that when he sent a message back, he had instructed his Second Uncle Li Muxiu under no circumstances to leave Qingzhou.
Because Liangzhou was a territory guarded by the Li Family, launching an attack on Liangzhou might be a feint, with the real target being Qingzhou!
After all, the Holy Palace and Dragon Gate, including the Great Void Realm, had exerted considerable effort, one could say they had completely torn their faces with the Dayu Divine Dynasty, but the sect master had not shown himself, which meant he must be somewhere else!
Therefore, he could only pin his hopes on the Xia Family.
Yet, the Xia Family’s arrival was delayed, and other Divine General Mansions were situated even further away; it would take at least half a day to get here.
And from last night until now, just about half a day had passed.
Perhaps if they held on a little longer, reinforcements from other Divine General Mansions would arrive.
The peril in Liangzhou this time was solely due to the convergence of three top demon forces choosing to launch a swift attack on Liangzhou.
Each top demon force was comparable to a Divine General Mansion, secretly gathering here for a quick assault, signifying the end of centuries of surface-level peace and sparking a great war between the Divine Dynasty and the demons!
Liangzhou was the prelude to this great battle!
Upon hearing Li Tian Gang’s words, the Thousand-Mechanism Taoist immediately said, “General, I will go with you.”
“No, you need to stay here to back them up; just hold the line!”
Li Tian Gang immediately said.
After speaking, he did not give the Thousand-Mechanism Taoist another chance to argue, and took the five battle flags passed to him by Li Hongzhuang, having already learned how to use them from her the previous night.
Just as he was about to step out of the array, suddenly, a thunderous noise shook the surroundings, startling everyone, both inside and outside the defensive line, and the demons alike.
Li Hao and Demon King Lu Yuan were seen clashing fiercely.
In close-quarters combat, Demon King Lu Yuan was actually struck so hard that he fell to the ground, causing an earthquake-like rumble!
Such might left onlookers on the city walls in awe, while even the Greater Demons in the demon horde were rendered speechless with shock.
Li Hao was enveloped in a sky of murderous aura, bursting with divine might as he dove down to strike.
But the Demon Kings from the Great Void Realm and Dragon Gate were already in pursuit, and in an instant, a myriad of attacks were unleashed, with demonic light splitting the sky and purple flames scorching, completely engulfing Li Hao.
Upon seeing this, Li Tian Gang’s eyes instantly blazed with rage as he bellowed:
“Stop!!”
He stepped out of the array and ran towards the fray.
Despite his various grievances with Li Hao, how could he just stand by and watch his own son die?
But in the next moment, a divine light erupted from within the surging demonic Qi and purple flames, dispersing all the attacks.
The young man’s figure stood like a supreme deity, his body shining with Red Gold, completely unharmed!
Li Tian Gang, who was rushing over, was shaken to his core, his scalp tingling, frozen in astonishment.
He was somewhat shocked and bewildered; was that really his son?
Having not seen him for over a year, had he become terrifyingly powerful to this extent?
At that moment, Li Hao’s eyes were cold and sharp like divine lightning, disregarding other Demon Kings as he charged straight at Lu Yuan.
With a thud, Li Hao’s feet heavily trampled on Lu Yuan’s abdomen, pressing his body into a depression in the ground.
Lu Yuan let out a miserable roar of pain. Li Hao’s attack was like ten thousand mountains focusing on one spot, overpowering even his dragon body that had been refined over many years, causing his bones to shatter and scales to crack.
How long had it been since he had suffered such grievous injuries?
Before Lu Yuan had a chance to counterattack, behind Li Hao, a Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation was already emerging.
This time, his Law Manifestation did not need to be condensed!
With the power facilitated by the Heaven and Earth Vein, this Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation, hundreds of zhang tall like a giant towering over the land, radiated a magnificent golden divine might.
Li Hao’s eyes blazed with fury as he suddenly urged the Law Manifestation to lift the old dragon’s body.
“Rise!!!”
Li Hao let out a wild roar to the heavens.
The Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation seemed to open its mouth, emitting a silent howl as its hands came together, clasping Lu Yuan’s massive dragon body before fiercely thrashing it around!
With a resounding boom, the entire battlefield trembled, and the sprawling demon horde shook unstably, struggling to remain upright.
Lu Yuan spewed a mouthful of fresh blood, and although his physical body was exceptionally refined, the sheer force of the impact made his organs feel as though they were about to burst out.
Li Hao unleashed his supreme divine might, as the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation swung up Demon King Lu Yuan’s body and violently thrashed it about on the plains behind the demon tide, in a frenzied hammering!
Such a scene left the numerous soldiers of Liangzhou on the city walls, and the families and children of the military clans, dumbstruck and bug-eyed.
After all, that was the Demon King being flailed about like a stray dog under the might of that youth’s vast Divine Soul!
“Stop!!”
The Demon King from Longmen, seeing this scene, bellowed in rage, manifested its true form, and spewed Demonic Qi and killing blades towards Li Hao.
The other Great Void Realm Demon Kings, shocked, had their pupils contract but didn’t hesitate to keep attacking Li Hao with all their might, attempting to stop him and free Lu Yuan.
The attacks of the numerous Demon Kings went towards Li Hao again, covering the sky and the earth as if they would tear apart the heavens and shatter the ground!
Li Tiangang was appalled, snapping back to his senses, he hurriedly chased after them at full speed, but he was too far away, and the other Demon Kings were closer; his intervention was too late!
“Hao Er!” he roared.
“Li Hao!”
On the city walls, Li Wushuang’s face was drained of color as she covered her mouth.
“Hao Er!”
Li Xuanli’s eyes were red, but he was powerless to help.
A thunderous boom erupted, countless blades tore through the void and shattered the earth.
Those behind the defense line went silent, some shedding scalding tears, but as the dust settled, a golden figure still stood in the same spot, unharmed!
The figure stood tall and firm, like a spear reaching into the sky, with the youth’s shoulders seeming to prop up the entire storm-riddled heaven!
At that moment, the entire battlefield fell silent, slipping into a brief lull.
Having taken the furious attacks from the many Demon Kings, Li Hao was actually unharmed!
As Li Wushuang saw it clearly, she couldn’t help the tears that welled up in her eyes.
Li Tiangang, who was racing to catch up, saw it too, and after a moment of stunned silence, he suddenly felt a trance-like sensation.
The boy, it seemed, no longer needed anyone else’s protection.
Having left the Li Family for a year, he had blossomed into an even more dazzling presence.
A presence that was even somewhat unfamiliar to him.
Was that really his son?
This should have filled him with excited joy, but for some reason, his mind was abruptly flooded with the memory of that blizzard.
The memory of that lean figure stepping out of the Li Family gate into the snow.
His heart clenched hard, with an indescribable sensation. Check out m_vl_em_p_yr stories
It was like the pain of saying goodbye to his wife on the battlefield of Northern Yan, the agony of trying to grasp something that slipped through his fingers.
Roar!
Suddenly, Lu Yuan’s roaring resounded, jolting everyone back to reality.
The Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation still held onto Lu Yuan’s body, swinging him around; Lu Yuan’s scales oozed with fresh blood, and with a roaring defiance, he dug his dragon claws into the ground, unleashing his Peerless Technique, the Limitless Thunder Tao.
He burst into countless blinding lightning bolts that exploded from his body, the sudden outburst enabling him to break free from the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation’s grasp.
“Die!!”
Lu Yuan let out a furious roar, truly enraged now, he deployed the Unwithering Strength, his aura quickly escalating.
Above him, dark clouds gathered, and numerous lightning bolts coalesced.
The other Demon Kings also snapped back to their senses, seeing that Lu Yuan’s aura had returned to its prime, they immediately rallied to his side, ready to combine their might to kill this youth.
“How can his flesh be so strong, am I hallucinating?” one Demon King asked in shock.
Yet the other Demon Kings didn’t speak; they had no answers.
Despite enduring so many of their attacks, Li Hao had resisted merely with his body, something not even they, the Demon Kings, could manage!
“Kill!”
Lu Yuan was still brewing his Peerless Technique, barking furiously at the other Demon Kings.
These Demon Kings also realized that Lu Yuan was preparing a finishing move, and without further words, they quickly launched their attacks at Li Hao, buying Lu Yuan time.
Boom!
The Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation suddenly lifted a foot and swept it fiercely across, kicking over a Longmen Demon King who resembled both a flood dragon and a true dragon.
The Dragon Demon King’s massive body flew backward, crashing fiercely into the ground.
The Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation faced many Demon Kings and roared silently, swinging its arms and unleashing terrifying fist forces. Each fist force evolved into true phenomenal visions, like lightning flashing and thunder roaring, wind rising and fire surging, bombarding towards those Demon Kings.
The ferocious bodies of the Demon Kings fought fiercely with the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation, giving off the sensation of demons battling a true god.
Li Tian Gang’s expression changed continuously as he hurried over at full speed.
The familiar Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation reminded him of the battle at Qingzhou City.
Back then, the fight was so intense that it split the heavens and shattered the earth, spanning from the Divine General Mansion to the outside of the city, with battles raging across the sky of Qingzhou City.
The proud and arrogant youth was suppressed by his immortal might.
Now, however, the power of this Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation seemed even greater than before.
The awe-inspiring aura inherent on the manifestation made him, who had now stepped into the Four Stands Realm, feel his heart pound with fear.
It was not youthful arrogance, but an undeniable majesty!
Bang, bang, bang!
With successive punches and kicks, Li Hao’s Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation fought alone against several Demon Kings. The force of their colliding attacks tore the ground beneath the manifestation’s feet, leaving terrifying claw-like fissures.
But the body of the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation, torn by the attacks of the Demon Kings, would heal instantaneously, with a continuous influx of power pouring in.
On the other hand, the Demon Kings were either smashed away or toppled over by Li Hao’s manifestation, unable to get close and unable to inflict damage on Li Hao.
“Scram!”
Li Hao’s eyes flashed coldly, and his manifestation swung its arms, unleashing a hundred-thousand-ton crushing force in a sweeping strike.
The Demon King shaped like a mountain ape from the Great Void Realm had just leaped forward when a punch slammed into its face and sent it flying backward.
Another Demon King, resembling a winged giant crocodile, dove down only to be kicked away by Li Hao, tumbling onto the ground dozens of miles away.
The manifestation raised its hand and gathered the power of heaven and earth in its palm, forming a sword light of pure force that was flung with a snap. Countless sword energy raindrops swept out.
The sword raindrops struck like blades and tides, slashing toward the many Demon Kings.
The enraged Demon Kings raised their hands to smash these sword lights, but the endless streams were as persistent as rain, forcing several Demon Kings to retreat.
The half-dragon Demon King from Dragon Gate roared forward, its body as tough as divine iron and its scales impervious to weapons, bravely enduring the sword rain in an attempt to break Li Hao’s sword momentum.
But suddenly, as the Sword Qi raindrops hit its scales and the dissipating energy infiltrated them, the Demon King felt its strength stall, as if its soul was being hooked. Its body quickly became heavy as if a myriad of mountains were pressing down on it. With a thud, it plunged downward and collapsed at the feet of Li Hao’s manifestation.
Its life force dissipated, and it died on the spot!
This eerie scene terrified the other Demon Kings, who suddenly realized that the sword tide contained a dreadful killing move, just like the killing moves within Li Hao’s banner.
Invisible to the eye and impossible to guard against, the only solution was to avoid getting close!
“Don’t let this Sword Qi touch you!”
“He has a strange attack!”
The many Great Void Realm Demon Kings were frightened, swinging their demon powers to shatter those raindrops and prevent them from getting close.
But the Sword Qi rain was overwhelming, and as they fought and retreated, they were pushed back a hundred miles by the might of Li Hao alone!
Li Hao’s Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation forced the many Demon Kings back. Suddenly, he raised his hand and flung the sword light in his hand towards the dark clouds gathered by Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan was furious. The many Demon Kings could not stop Li Hao.
The mysterious attack also alarmed him, for even he had not seen how the elder died.
If Li Hao had killed the elder with a punch, he could accept it since he could see it, but although the sword energy raindrops were powerful, they clearly were not enough to kill a Demon King.
Yet the elder had indeed died.
Fear arose from the unknown.
At this moment, the sword light pierced the dark clouds, and Lu Yuan growled lowly, gathering the thunder from the clouds into countless Thunder Whips, entangling and shattering the sword light.
But the sword light also annihilated countless thunders, delaying the brewing of the Peerless Technique within the clouds.
“Attack, do you want to wait for death?!”
Lu Yuan roared.
The many Demon Kings looked grim. They knew that if they truly grew timid, things would only get worse.
“Kill!”
They roared again and charged in, spreading out in different directions to surround Li Hao.
By now, Li Tian Gang had arrived and yelled anxiously, “Hao Er, run!”
Li Hao, who was about to attack Lu Yuan, frowned slightly at the shout and glanced in that direction.
When he saw Li Tian Gang’s figure, his brow furrowed again, but then it relaxed, and without looking further, he charged straight towards Lu Yuan.
Seeing that Li Hao ignored him, Li Tian Gang felt both anxious and angry, shouting at the Demon Kings, “If you dare, come at me!”
“I will keep you company!”
Monarch Bai, who had been hesitating on whether to join the battle, struggled with the decision; staying out of the battle meant facing Dragon Gate’s fury later.
But joining the battle… he did not want to die.
Now that he saw Li Tian Gang approaching, he suddenly found the human general, whom he had despised for fifteen years in Northern Yan, somewhat endearing. As he felt awkward being just a spectator, an opportunity for action had presented itself.
Stepping forward, Monarch Bai quickly intercepted Li Tian Gang.
“Scram!”
Li Tian Gang, enraged, swung his divine blade to chop down.
Monarch Bai flicked his finger, emitting a Sword Qi that shattered the light of the divine blade.
He scoffed softly, “Just stepping into the Tao Heart Realm and you dare to be so wildly arrogant, truly a member of the Li Family. But compared to your son, you’re far from ready to face me!”
“Then let’s give it a try!”
Li Tian Gang’s eyes glinted coldly as divine might erupted from him like fierce flames enveloping his body. His momentum rapidly soared, executing the Heaven-Defying Nine Steps, stepping out in succession, his presence like towering mountains.
Monarch Bai was no longer polite either, manifesting his true god form, his massive body lunging at Li Tian Gang to strike him down.
The two immediately engaged in intense combat.
Atop the city walls, Li Xuanli wasn’t idle either. He quickly commanded others to activate the array nodes, taking the opportunity to strike at the demons outside the defense line, forcing those Demon Kings to retreat.
With the Thousand-Mechanism Taoist flanking the array, even if Demon Kings came rushing to reinforce, they would still have time to retreat.
Before long, the atmosphere atop the city walls also erupted with the momentum of thousands of troops and horses, shouting as they charged out towards the enemy beyond the city.
The tide of demons was startled, many Three Immortal Realm Great Demons commanding their demon armies. Seeing these members of the Human Race daring to sally forth, they were enraged, bellowing commands for the demons to kill.
However, Li Hongzhuang led the charge, holding the Haotian Flag high, and rushed into the tide of demons.
She threw three battle flags in succession, which tore through the tide of demons upon impact. Suddenly, towering Sword Qi slashed out, sweeping across, and countless demons were directly slain without a chance to resist.
The Three Immortal Realm Demons within were also affected by the Sword Qi from the battle flags, horrified and exerting all their power to concentrate on their indestructible bodies. Yet, the Sword Qi swept across, slicing straight through, severing their physical forms!
Each battle flag acted like a depth charge in the demon horde, blasting open a chasm tens of miles wide.
Witnessing such a terrifying force, the tide of demons suddenly started to panic.
On the other side, faced with the encirclement of many Demon Kings, Li Hao’s Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation bent down to pick up the corpse of a dead demi-dragon, suddenly wielding it in a whirl.
With two thudding sounds, the dragon corpse, like a long whip, struck other Demon Kings, immediately smashing their flesh open.
These Demon Kings, swept by the swung dragon corpse like a long whip, were consecutively knocked away, unable to get close.
After whirling the dragon corpse a few times, seeing that these Demon Kings stubbornly kept coming, Li Hao’s heart filled with real fury. He suddenly launched into the air, deploying the Heaven and Earth Traceless Skill.
He stepped forward, and in an instant appeared before a Demon King, raising his hand and smashing down with a punch.
The Demon King, startled by Li Hao’s sudden appearance, was scared out of its wits. Just as it tried to dodge, it was struck down by Li Hao.
Li Hao pressed the attack, throwing several consecutive punches, causing the ground to tremble as he pounded the Demon King’s head into a bloody pulp.
The other Demon Kings roared and attacked, but despite numerous strikes landing on him, Li Hao paid no mind. His physical body at this moment was akin to a divine weapon cast seven times, impervious to these Demon Kings’ assaults.
With a boom!
Li Hao smashed the Demon King’s head to pieces, and as its Divine Soul burst forth, the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation raised its hand to grasp, catching it and then with a low growl tightened its grip, crushing the Divine Soul mercilessly.
Before Li Hao, a Demon King of the Tao Heart Realm had no power to resist.
Such ferocity shocked and frightened the many Demon Kings. This Human Race youth was even more terrifying than the notorious reputation that came from Tianji Palace; he was like a fearsome, ancient Demon King reincarnated!
Seeing the other Demon Kings cowed, Li Hao quickly picked up the limp body of a defeated Demon King. The Law Manifestation merged into one with him, and his strength surged as he infused it into his body.
His aura angrily surged forth, soaring into the sky, and he charged to confront Lu Yuan.
With a whoosh, he hurled the soft, decaying body of the Demon King into the dark clouds, tearing a gap through the dense formation.
Countless bolts of lightning bombarded the Demon King’s body, tearing it apart.
Li Hao raised his fist and struck at Lu Yuan, his punch drawing on the surging power around him, condensing into a collapsing fist shadow with a terrifying killing intent, and blasting in front of Lu Yuan.
Enraged, Lu Yuan could only channel the power he had been gathering.
Endless lightning transformed into a thunder dragon, roaring as it charged towards Li Hao’s body.
Neither attempted to defend against the other’s killer moves; they both attacked directly, opting for a brutal exchange of injuries!
Li Hao’s eyes were cold and determined, not dodging or evading, allowing the thunder dragon to roar towards him. His flesh swelled, and the body refined by various Body Refinement skills operated to their utmost limits, releasing waves of Gang Qi trembling forth.
Bang! Bang!
Two violent collisions sounded, Li Hao was bitten by the thunder dragon and smashed into the ground, ploughing out for more than ten miles.
Lu Yuan, too, was struck by Li Hao’s fist, spewing blood from his dragon muzzle, his body hurtling backward with a pained moan, falling from the sky.
“Hao Er!”
Li Tian Gang caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye and his face changed drastically, filled with both shock and horror.
Li Hao’s power exceeded his expectations; facing the joint attack of many Demon Kings, he could still severely injure the Ultimate Study Realm’s old dragon Lu Yuan. No wonder he had been able to chase him all this way. Experience new worlds on M-VL-em|p,yr
In just over a year, how had he grown to such an extent?!
“You still dare to be distracted!”
Monarch Bai roared, suddenly striking down with a claw, smacking Li Tian Gang’s body firmly to the ground.
He then dived down furiously, seemingly wanting to unleash all the anger accumulated from over a decade of confrontation with Northern Yan on Li Tian Gang in this moment.
Especially since being slain by Li Hao outside the city cost him his second life, Monarch Bai no longer dared to behave recklessly.
Kill!
His body crashed down like a force of ten thousand jun, tearing the armor on Li Tian Gang’s body.
Li Tian Gang spat out a mouthful of blood, yet he glared fiercely, his mighty aura bursting forth, repelling Monarch Bai’s pursuit.
Monarch Bai’s eyes narrowed slightly, Li Tian Gang indeed was strong; facing his Defying Fate Realm might, he still had the strength to fight back.
“All of you from the Li Family truly deserve to die!”
“However, compared to your son, you really fall short.”
With eyes cold as arrows, Monarch Bai said icily, “If your son had been defending Northern Yan from the start, would we have needed to battle for over a decade?”
“But you should really be thankful, that little monster was only born a decade ago. Had he been born ten years earlier, I fear I would have been defeated at his hands by now.”
As he spoke, a violent killing intent burst from his body and he charged at Li Tian Gang once again.
Shaken by his words, Li Tian Gang’s face went through a whirl of emotions. Seeing him charging over, he roared and swung his blade to rise again.
The battlefield was engulfed in the flames of war everywhere.
Li Xuanli sat atop the city walls commanding, though he had dispatched elite armies to battle the demon horde, his attention was always fixed on Li Hao’s side.
Seeing those Demon Kings disregard the demon horde, intent on killing Li Hao, his heart sank and his face showed urgency.
Watching Li Hao get blasted to the ground by Lu Yuan’s old dragon’s peerless technique, Limitless Thunder Dragon, his heart trembled, fearing for Li Hao’s safety. But in this massive war, as one of the Three Immortal Realms, he simply couldn’t intervene.
“Kill him!”
The Demon Kings, seeing Li Hao struck down by the Limitless Thunder Dragon, seized the opportunity to unleash their attacks. Terrifying demon techniques thundered down, all using their true strength, knowing that without going all out, they couldn’t harm this fierce young man.
Boom!!
Suddenly, an earth-shattering force burst forth.
The Thunder Dragon that had pounced on Li Hao and was biting him was suddenly gripped by the throat with a huge palm, its body emitting destructive lightning that it shot out like thousands of swords, attempting to break free from the grip of the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation.
But as the lightning exploded within the grasp of the Law Manifestation’s palm, it never loosened its hold, the energy guided by the Heaven and Earth Vein made the Law Manifestation indestructible.
The Limitless Thunder Dragon, on the contrary, grew weaker with its struggles, its lightning exhausted, and its roaring turned to wails.
The Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation behind Li Hao re-emerged, grasping the Limitless Thunder Dragon, and as it looked up at the many Demon Kings rushing towards it, its body suddenly erupted with brilliant silver radiance.
The charred skin from the lightning fire on Li Hao’s body quickly peeled away. He knew that to swiftly kill that Ultimate Study Realm old dragon amidst the chaos caused by the Demon Kings, he had to enter the transformed immortal state.
He had already exited the transformed immortal state from his earlier pursuit. Otherwise, in such a prolonged pursuit, he would have reached the limit of the transformation long ago.
He had intended to take another look, to avoid any other Ultimate Study Realm Demon Kings hidden in this vast battlefield, but now it seemed there were none.
If that was so, then he’d decide the battle swiftly!

As the gates within his body opened and the Heaven and Earth Vein was invoked, the power of heaven and earth surged tumultuously, rushing into Li Hao’s body.
Thud!
Li Hao’s Law Manifestation extinguished the Thunder Dragon, and he himself suddenly stepped forward, almost instantly reaching a Demon King.
He threw a punch with his raised hand!
The terrifying might of the punch swept over, just the scorching light dragged by the punch was enough to burn and crack the Demon King’s coarse hide, and with one punch, its head exploded.
A Divine Soul tried to escape from its body, only to be met with a roar from Li Hao.
The roar, like a sonic attack, shook the air, and the Divine Soul let out a scream as it was torn apart by an immense force and dissipated on the spot!
In an instant, a Demon King of the Tao Heart Realm fell!
Li Hao abruptly turned, his gaze fixed on the remaining Demon Kings. He executed the Heaven and Earth Traceless Skill and reached them in an instant, Thud!
Another punch, and another Great Void Realm Demon King, just as it began to react, had its protective layers of gray wooden armor swiftly shattered, turning into countless splinters. A punch pierced through its chest, and blood splattered.
The Law Manifestation that had crushed the Thunder Dragon vanished in the blink of an eye, only to emerge again from behind Li Hao, the gigantic Law Manifestation lifted its hand and grabbed the tiger-lion-like Demon King’s limbs, violently tearing them apart.
The terrifying force erupted, and the Demon King’s body was torn asunder, its blood gushing like boiling water.
The Divine Soul that tried to flee was frozen in place by the suction from the open mouth of the Law Manifestation.
Then, a newly condensed Sword Qi slashed out, annihilating the Divine Soul on the spot!
In the blink of an eye, a second Demon King fell.
The remaining Demon Kings were horrified; as they came to their senses, terror filled their eyes. Had this youth not even been using his full strength before?!
What kind of monster was this?!
They finally realized why Li Hao could pursue Lu Yuan this far — it wasn’t just the abilities he had shown before.
Flee!
At this moment, the Great Void Realm Demon Kings were terrified. To hell with the Demon Alliance. Their tens of thousands of years of arduous cultivation, their many years of seclusion, they could not die here!
Besides, they had already seen that they posed no threat to Li Hao, unless they had an extremely powerful Divine Weapon to injure this youth.
Instead, Li Hao was like a humanoid weapon of destruction to them, unstoppable by anyone!
“Tiger Press!”
“Blood Sea Fierce Jiao Painting, Qiongqi Mountains Painting!”
Li Hao growled low, his body swiftly chasing after them, executing the might of the Paintings in succession.
His body erupted with terrifying force, like a tiger’s roar, like a Jiao Dragon soaring from the Blood Sea, and the most terrifying was the figure of Qiong Qi seated on the peak, that ancient fierce beast, a Demon King, even True Dragons were its prey.
Stunned and stiffened by the shock, the Great Void Realm Demon Kings paused for a moment, in which Li Hao had taken consecutive actions, slapping two Demon Kings to death, smashing their heads into a bloody pulp.
Their massive demon bodies were thrown out, tumbling into the demon tide ahead.
The suddenly flung demon corpses shocked the demon tide, already in fierce combat with the Human Race, creating a large cleared area. The many Great Demons in the tide were startled by this abrupt addition.
As they got a clear view of Li Hao’s battlefield, both the human and demon commanders and soldiers engaged in the confrontation were dumbfounded.
It was thought that the many Demon Kings were in a standoff against Li Hao, but in a blink of an eye, Li Hao, like a fierce tiger scattering a pack of wolves, killed these Demon Kings one by one, and the remaining ones scattered in defeat!
“Hao Er!”
Li Xuanli had been closely monitoring and was shocked at the scene, his eyes bulging.
Monarch Bai and Li Tiangang, who were fiercely fighting, seemed to be locked in intense combat, but in fact, they were both sparing a portion of their attention to Li Hao’s situation.
