A sharp howl came from afar, exploding the Mirage Seal outside the subway tunnel that was exclusively used by monsters. The train that was traveling inside was blown away.
Xu Liao hurriedly activated the Immortal Gathering Gate to protect himself. At the same time, he also protected his two subordinates. There was no need for him to worry about the Lazy King. The Ancient Heavenly Ghost moved and disappeared into the void.
Xu Liao broke through the aftermath of the explosion and couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't expect these "traitors" to be able to get their hands on a Spiritual Power Bomb.
This kind of thing was researched by the 18 immortal sects. It was a weapon for low-level demons to surround and attack high-level demons. It was convenient, easy to use, and safe. As long as it locked onto a target and threw it out, it could automatically lock onto the target's aura, change direction in midair, and come with its own navigation and tracking function.
Its power was almost equivalent to a full-force attack from a peak Demon King. No matter how strong a Spiritual Power Bomb was, it wasn't that it couldn't be made technically, but that it was too expensive and dangerous. That was why the 18 immortal sects and the Myriad Demon Guild had joined forces to ban it.
Just as Xu Liao rushed into the air, more Spiritual Power Bombs flew over. Clearly, the demons who planned to assassinate him had no intention of leaving him alive. They were determined to kill him.
Xu Liao shook open the Great Heavenly Demon Banner of the Two Realms and quickly escaped the range of the explosion. The special mirage that had been damaged kept rolling and releasing Mirage Power, repelling everything out.
In the blink of an eye, the special mirage operated by the special train for monsters disappeared without a trace. In front of Xu Liao, there were only endless farmlands and uninhabited wilderness, as well as an extremely arrogant monster clad in white armor.
The demon's face was pale, and the white armor on its body looked strange. It was rather thick, but if one looked carefully, they would see that it was actually a set of paper armor. There were countless pale white bone talismans wriggling on it, making it extremely strange.
Xu Liao put Yu Qingyuan and Bai Huchan down and laughed. "So it's the Evil Spirit General! Why aren't you patrolling Bei Du City? Why are you here to throw Spiritual Power Bombs? Do you want me dead? "
The Evil Spirit General said with a fake smile, "Xu Liao! Your protective divine art is not bad, you can actually withstand the spiritual power bombs, but you can withstand one or two, how about a hundred? "
The Wraith General waved his hand and hundreds of Spiritual Energy Bombs flew toward Xu Liao, Yu Qingyuan, Bai Huchan, and the others. Xu Liao couldn't help but shout, "General Wraith! Do you not know how to count? How could it be more than a hundred? At least three times more, okay? "
The Wraith General didn't care about the bad comment of "not knowing how to count" at all. He slightly activated his demonic aura and manipulated the bombs so that some of them would crash head-on, while others would bypass Xu Liao and then circle back, forming a huge encirclement. Only then did he activate all the bombs with a single thought.
Xu Liao shook his body, and the Immortal Gathering Gate produced an endless suction force. The bombs fell straight into it and stopped moving.
After collecting the Spiritual Energy Bombs, Xu Liao waved his hands and a pitch-black iron staff flew out. Just as he was about to test his skills against the Great Demon, White Tiger Chan rushed forward and activated the Hundred Dragon Claws of the Bai Clan's direct lineage. Claw energy swept out and went straight for the Unholy General.
Both of them were Daemon Generals, so they instantly clashed with each other.
Yu Qingyuan let out a strange cry and was about to help, but Elder Ling had already appeared. His long hair suddenly turned snow silver, and with a wave of his hand, several silver specks of light appeared and landed on Yu Qingyuan's body.
This was the secret skill that earned him the title of Elder Ling — Feather Stardust!
These silver specks of light were the purest starlight. There was nothing that they could not burn and destroy. Elder Ling had relied on this technique to dominate his entire life. Not to mention those at the same level as him, he had even used this technique to launch a sneak attack on a Daemon Commander, heavily injuring them and ultimately dying on the battlefield.
Despite having more than ten divine powers to protect himself, Yu Qingyuan could not help but let out a strange cry after being ambushed by him. He transformed into a golden beam of light that shot into the sky.
Xu Liao never expected Yu Qingyuan to suffer in a single exchange. However, he wasn't very worried. After all, Yu Qingyuan was the Jade Tripod Sect's heir. As long as he knew how powerful the enemy was, he would be able to quickly counter it.
Now that the Wraith General and Old Ling had made their move, Xu Liao knew that he would not remain idle. He shook the floating Immortal Gathering Gate around him and looked around. Sure enough, he saw three Great Daemons of the Demon General level leading over two hundred monsters. They had actually formed a strange array formation.
The array formation was instantly activated. Countless starlight descended from the sky and immediately locked onto Xu Liao's figure.
Zhu Jiulie and the two Demon Generals walked forward. One of them was shrouded in a strange light. He was known as the Desire Serpent. The light from his body could arouse the desires of all living beings. He also had the ability to enter dreams. Although he was weak in a head-on battle, he had all sorts of strange means. If he was given the chance to use his means, even Xu Liao had no confidence that he could withstand it. Xu Liao had never felt that he was a good youth without any desires.
The other Demon General was called Two Passes. He was clad in armor and held a double-edged spear that shone like the sun. He walked a pure Demon race martial art path. He had already reached the stage where his body could produce divine powers. In terms of strength, he was the strongest among the five Demon Generals. Xu Liao had once sparred with him but had failed to gain the upper hand.
When the Desire Serpent and Two Passes saw Xu Liao, they revealed mocking smiles. The Desire Serpent said mockingly, "Minister! You never thought this day would come, did you? "
As Xu Liao activated the Immortal Gathering Gate to resist the suppression of the array formation, he asked casually, "Even if you kill me, you'll still be punished by the Myriad Demon Guild. Do you think you'll be promoted just like that?"
The Desire Serpent laughed loudly and shouted, "We all have a Demon God backing us. So what if we kill you? Will the Myriad Demon Guild really kill us to avenge you? Why would the Myriad Demon Guild do such a stupid thing? As long as we give the higher-ups a good reason, no one will pursue us. Five Demon Generals are more valuable than one. Not to mention, there's still the Lazy King. "
When Xu Liao heard the Desire Serpent mention the Lazy King, he smiled faintly and said, "Are you sure that the Lazy King will be on your side?"
The Desire Serpent smiled eerily and said, "Of course! The Lazy King is the Empress' subordinate. Jiulie is on good terms with him, and they're both subordinates of the Empress. Do you think … there'll be any other changes? "
Xu Liao grinned at Zhu Jiulie. Zhu Jiulie said fiercely, "The position of minister belongs to the virtuous. What right does a brat like you have to be our superior?"
The air in front of Liu Guan's chest was instantly blasted apart. He shouted in a low voice, "Why are you so long-winded? Kill this brat! "
Liu Guan took a step forward and used the Earth Shrinking Technique. He pointed the double-edged spear in his hand at an angle and pointed it at Xu Liao's waist. This spear technique was ingenious and had an astonishing domineering aura.
In particular, the array formed by more than two hundred demons could transmit demonic energy through the air, allowing him to slightly increase his realm. This spear strike was almost beyond his standard, even more so than the time when he had a duel with Xu Liao.
Xu Liao shouted and pushed the Mountain and Sea Staff in his hand with great difficulty. The array formed by these demons was so strange that every time he attacked, he had to consume more than three times his demonic energy.
In fact, if these two hundred demons of the Demon King and Demon Soldier level also came to fight, Xu Liao would only need to use a few tricks to kill them all.
However, the array they formed gave Xu Liao a great deal of trouble. As the battle went on, Xu Liao and Liu Guan exchanged more than ten moves, and it was obvious that he was at a disadvantage.
The Desire Serpent took advantage of the opportunity and unleashed the full power of its innate magical power. Colorful halos fell on Xu Liao's head, causing him to have all kinds of hallucinations. He felt that the sky was filled with the thighs of beautiful women, that all kinds of secret techniques were at his fingertips, and that rare pills and natural treasures that could allow him to become a Heavenly Demon were floating toward him …
If Xu Liao had not activated the Mysterious Fixation Mirror in time and seen through all the illusions, he would have probably fallen into the Desire Serpent's trap.
Even so, he had to divert his attention to deal with the Desire Serpent, so his movements became slower, and he was suppressed even more by Liu Guan.
The more Xu Liao swung the Mountain and Sea Staff, the heavier it became. Every move and every style was extremely strenuous, but this black and heavy staff was like a monstrous python that had been cultivating for three thousand years. No matter how slow or how strenuous it was, it would always be able to intercept the Liu Guan's double-edged spear at the most critical moment.
Every time the Liu Guan clashed with Xu Liao's huge staff, his wrist would feel slightly numb. He maintained his storm-like attacks, but he was still secretly shocked. He thought to himself, 'This brat Xu Liao, everyone said that he had awakened the demon bloodline only one or two years ago. Even if he cultivated in the Heavenly Abode and could speed up time, having a hundred years of cultivation is already his limit. How could he have cultivated to such terrifying strength?'
The Liu Guan was shocked, but his movements were not slow. He swept his double-edged spear horizontally and vertically, and his movement technique became faster and faster. It was as if he had thousands of clones, and when he stood at the most comfortable position, he shouted, "Zhu Jiulie! Why haven't you made your move yet? "
Zhu Jiulie shook his mane and waved his hands. A nine foot eight inch steel fork appeared in his hands. When he waved the fork, it looked like a mountain of sabers, shining brightly and giving off a chilling feeling.
With the addition of Zhu Jiulie, Xu Liao became even more strained. The Mountain and Sea Rod could no longer protect him, and he had no choice but to use the weapons of the two enemies of the Gathering Immortals Sect.
Elder Ling used the Featherfall Stardust Technique, and countless fluorescent lights flew everywhere. However, Yu Qingyuan was not someone easy to deal with. Even though he was at a disadvantage in the beginning, this second disciple of Xu Liao had already changed his technique. He also used the Mysterious Fixation Mirror, and when he saw the silver light flying over, he shone it.
Even though the Featherfall Stardust Technique was magical, once it was shone by the Mysterious Fixation Mirror, it would still scatter on the spot and turn into nothingness.
Elder Ling's heart was filled with hatred. He never thought that there would be such a miraculous technique in this world that could suppress his innate divine ability. He fought with Yu Qingyuan for hundreds of rounds, and only then did he rise into the sky. He looked down and thought to himself, 'Even though I can't win against this bird in a hurry, he can't do anything to my Featherfall Stardust Technique either. White Tiger Chan and Wraith General are evenly matched, so let's not talk about it for now. Let's see when Zhu Jiulie, Snake of Desire, and Two Passes can kill Xu Liao. Once Xu Liao dies, White Tiger Chan will definitely understand the situation. I heard that the bird has a good relationship with Xu Liao, and even calls him master. However, how can Xu Liao raise a disciple who is at the level of Da Yan Shi? The relationship between the two might not be as close as the rumors say … '
Elder Ling pondered for a while, and knew that the key to this battle was to kill Xu Liao as soon as possible. He also didn't expect that even though he had arranged for three Great Demon Generals and over two hundred demons to form the "One Weakening Another Growing Formation", they still wouldn't be able to take down Xu Liao.
Elder Ling thought to himself, 'Even though the location of our ambush isn't within Bei Du City, it's still not far from there. If we fight for too long, we might attract the attention of a Great Demon Commander from the Thousand Demon Guild, such as Crown Prince Liberation. I should end this battle as soon as possible. I didn't want to use this trump card, but I have no choice but to use it now. '
Elder Ling waved his hand, and a signal spark flew out, sending out a signal to summon reinforcements.
Xu Liao couldn't help but feel his heart sink. He could already faintly sense that the situation had exceeded his expectations. Logically speaking, these five Great Demon Generals shouldn't have any more reinforcements, so why were they still acting like they were summoning reinforcements?
Xu Liao's bewilderment didn't last long before he heard a clear and melodious roar rushing into the sky from afar. A five-colored flame carried boundless domineering aura and produced thunderous explosions as it broke through the barrier of the atmosphere and shot straight towards him.
Xu Liao's eyes immediately widened, revealing an expression of disbelief. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Five Directions Investiture of the Gods?"
The Five Directions Investiture of the Gods was one of the Seven Great Demon Strategies. It was the trump card of the Great Commander of the Penta-Colored Flags, Gu Ban Lan, and his sister Tide 'er. After the fall of the Heavenly Court, it was one of the four great demons that had ascended to the position of Heavenly Demon. It was a secret art passed down by the Penta-Colored Peacock, known as Emperor Xing.
Not long ago, Xu Liao had just suffered under the hands of the Five Directions Investiture of the Gods. Even the Yellow Turban Strongman and the Jade Cauldron lineage's Numinous Treasure Transformations couldn't stop it. He had to rely on the Heavenly Cycle God Sacrifice Art to forcefully extinguish the five-colored flame.
All of Xu Liao's intelligence agencies and hidden spies hadn't sent back any news regarding the Penta-Colored Flags. Although this wasn't strange, the police department had just been unified, and their personnel were complicated. How could they be a match for the intelligence agency of the Penta-Colored Flags, one of the four great armies?
It would be normal if they couldn't find any traces of the Penta-Colored Flags' involvement in this matter. It would be abnormal if they could find any.
But … at this moment, Xu Liao absolutely couldn't accept this explanation.
"The strength of this demonic aura is truly beyond my expectations, but it's still not at the level of a demon god … There are only two people cultivating the Five Directions Investiture of the Gods. Since it's not Gu Ban Lan, it must be Tide 'er, Gu Ban Lan's sister!"
Xu Liao didn't dare to hold back his strength anymore. With a low roar, the Heavenly Cycle God Sacrifice Art was fully activated. The first two stages were the two stages. This great demon was covered by the Immortal Gathering Gate, and before it could even make a sound, it was swallowed whole.
After suppressing the two stages, Xu Liao didn't attack Zhu Jiulie. Instead, he looked at him with deep meaning. This great demon didn't even think about it before he turned into a beam of light and fled.
Xu Liao gave him a chance to escape. If Zhu Jiulie didn't escape, he would only be waiting for death if he stayed.
The Desire Serpent didn't expect that Xu Liao would suddenly turn the situation around. He defeated two stages in one go and scared Zhu Jiulie away. He knew that things were not going well and was about to escape with a beam of light. However, with the Immortal Gathering Gate covering him, how could he escape? He was attacked by Xu Liao and more than two hundred demons on the spot.
After Yu Qingyuan received Xu Liao's message, the bird let out a strange cry and suddenly used the Two World Banner to fly to White Tiger Chan's side. He grabbed his comrade and fled with all his might.
Under the hands of a demon commander-level great demon, these two demon general-level existences were like food. Therefore, when Xu Liao sent a message, Yu Qingyuan fled with all his might. As a disciple of the Jade Tripod Sect, making the most rational choice at the critical moment was the most basic survival ability. No one would have any unnecessary foolish thoughts at such a time.
Elder Ling and the Wraith General's faces were somewhat pale. If they didn't know that no matter how powerful Xu Liao was, he wouldn't be able to kill them in time, their remaining courage might have vanished into thin air.
The five-colored flame was delayed for a split second, and crashed heavily into Xu Liao's protective divine light.
Xu Liao didn't dare to hold back anymore. The Heavenly Cycle Sacrificial God was fully unleashed. The four immortal gates — Immortal Gathering Gate, Immortal Extermination Gate, Immortal Transformation Gate, and Immortal Devouring Gate — opened wide. Boundless immortal light spewed out and blocked the five-colored flame.
If it was just Xu Liao alone, no matter how powerful the Heavenly Cycle Sacrificial God was, he would be reduced to ashes in no time. However, in the four immortal gates condensed by the Heavenly Cycle Sacrificial God, there were 60,000 Yellow-scarved Strongmen and nine Yellow-scarved War Cities. These Yellow-scarved Strongmen infused their Dharmic powers into the four immortal gates. Although they couldn't raise Xu Liao's realm, they gave him an inexhaustible supply of Dharmic powers that were as boundless as the ocean and sky.
Xu Liao's entire body turned into four Immortal Gates that spun around in the void. Wrapping around these four Immortal Gates, a five-colored flame burned around them.
A very melodious female voice sounded in Xu Liao's mind. "You're actually proficient in the Heavenly Cycle Sacrificial God Art. Are you a remnant of the Heavenly Courts?"
Xu Liao gritted his teeth and endured bitterly. The four immortal gates emitted a radiant light, but no matter how much he circulated his Dharmic powers, he couldn't make the light emitted by the four immortal gates grow any brighter. They were firmly suppressed by the five-colored flame.
Under such circumstances, how could he be in the mood to answer questions?
The five-colored flame burned brightly. In just a few minutes, it had suppressed the radiant light by one-third. However, the light emitted by the four immortal gates — the Immortal Gathering Gate, the Immortal Execution Gate, the Immortal Assimilation Gate, and the Immortal Devouring Gate — became purer the more they suppressed it. The five-colored flame spent the same amount of time to suppress it by one-fifth.
After a few hours, the radiant light emitted by the four immortal gates had shrunk to a ball with a diameter of 8,000 meters. Although Xu Liao circulated his Dharmic powers with all his might, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. At this rate, even if the four immortal gates were suppressed and the radiant light they emitted became purer, they could only last for a dozen days at most.
At this time, Xu Liao didn't think about why the Sloth King hadn't made a move yet. He also didn't worry about Yang Shuhua suddenly appearing to save him. His sea of consciousness was empty except for the four immortal gates that kept spinning.
Countless Yellow-scarved Strongmen circled around the four immortal gates, forming a huge formation that provided endless Dharmic powers to the four immortal gates.
This battle had exceeded Xu Liao's expectations …
