In the void, the shadow of the cudgel cut through the void, accompanied by a deafening sound of rushing wind.
As the staff swept past, it was as if a primordial demonic beast had torn a hole in the sky.
A pair of scarlet eyes peered out of the crack. Anyone who saw them couldn't help but feel their hair stand on end.
As the demonic beast stared at him, Gu Li couldn't help but feel a chill run through his heart. Then he narrowed his eyes and took in a deep breath.
"Petty tricks!"
Gu Li didn't dare hold anything back against the Great Sage's staff.
He knew that the monkey in front of him was an Imperial Lord-level expert. Moreover, this staff strike was extremely strange.
A ray of starlight descended from the sky. His hands glowed with starlight. Judging from his expression, he was preparing to receive the staff with his bare hands.
"Holy Master, wake up!"
Just as Gu Li was concentrating, a furious roar reverberated through the sky.
Instantly, Gu Li's vision cleared up. The Great Sage who'd unleashed the staff had already vanished from the sky. The scarlet demonic beast's eyes were gone as well, and he couldn't sense any energy fluctuations in the air.
"You're a little distracted, big bro!"
The brick smashed into the back of Gu Li's head. Don't ever underestimate this brick.
He'd obtained it after opening the third floor of the Yao-Sealing Pagoda. It was a substandard divine artifact cold weapon with a stun effect.
As for the Great Sage who'd appeared in the sky just now, that was the effect of the second divine artifact.
The Illusionary Spirit Pearl.
It could see through people's hearts and create the scene their opponents feared the most.
Ye Zichen was certain Gu Li was afraid of the Great Sage, which was why he'd chosen to use these two divine artifacts to escape.
Gu Li was so focused on his attack that he didn't notice Ye Zichen at all. The brick smacked him squarely in the back of his head.
Suddenly, his vision blurred.
"Did you know that? This is the power of a RMB player."
Ye Zichen smirked and watched as the demons converged on him. Ye Zichen took out a modified smoke grenade he'd prepared earlier and threw it viciously at the ground.
The surrounding area was shrouded in mist. Even divine awareness couldn't penetrate within a hundred meters.
"If it weren't for the fact that I'm in a hurry right now, I'd really want to stab you to death with my sword."
Ye Zichen rolled his eyes. When he sensed that the demon experts were already within range of the clouds, he didn't dare tarry in the slightest. He pushed off the ground and charged out of the clouds.
As for the demons outside the mist …
"Eat this Old Sun's stick."
After scaring Gu Li twice, the Great Sage finally showed his face for real. Wielding the Ruyi Jingu Bang, he was like a god descending to the mortal world. The demons were terrified out of their wits.
When he saw Ye Zichen emerge from the clouds as promised, the Great Sage casually killed a diviner demon and waved at him.
"Ye 'zi, over here." Of Gu Li's subordinates, only the two people by his side, could make the Great Sage feel some fear. Just now, Ye Zichen had knocked Gu Li unconscious. The two of them were too eager to protect their master, so they'd long since entered the smoke bomb's range. To the Great Sage, the demons outside were nothing more than small fries. Get rid of him!
It was effortless for them.
This was a battle of wealth. Judging from the results, Ye Zichen had the absolute upper hand.
"I'm coming!"
Shouted Ye Zichen as he rushed to the Great Sage's side. By now, there were practically no demons capable of fighting him in the sky above Biubo City.
"You're not hurt, are you?"
The Great Sage was clad in the Monkey King's battle armor and hefted the Ruyi Jingu Bang. He looked very much like the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal.
Speaking of which, it was strange. The Heavenly Palace had clearly bestowed him with this armor, but in terms of defensive power, it was far superior to most divine artifacts of the god race.
There was also his Ruyi Jingu Bang, the Divine Sea-Stabilizing Pillar of the Eastern Sea. It was far, far stronger than most divine artifacts.
It wasn't just the Great Sage. Even Yang Jian's Erlang Lance was the same.
"Hey, I'm fine." Ye Zichen glanced at the demon expert diving into the mist, then took out the brick. "My special-effects divine artifacts are more than enough to give him a run for his money."
"Let's save the Zi Family clansmen!"
"Of course. They're all in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda."
"Then let's hurry up and leave."
"Have you cleared out the demons outside the city?"
Asked Ye Zichen, recalling Gu Li's earlier words.
The Great Sage furrowed his brows, then glanced outside the city.
"Are there demons outside as well? I looked around a few times, but I didn't sense any demonic aura. "
No demonic aura?
Given the Great Sage's cultivation, not even a Demon God of the same level as him could hide his aura from him. Furthermore, the Great Sage had the Old Lord's Fiery Eyes of Truth. He could see through all demons.
The Great Sage hadn't come immediately because Ye Zichen was worried Gu Li would set up an ambush outside the city. That was why he'd left the Great Sage outside to deal with the demons.
"Then forget it. Let's retreat."
Ye Zichen narrowed his eyes, then chose to retreat.
They couldn't stay here for long. The smoke bombs and brick's effects wouldn't last long. Once the smoke cleared and Gu Li woke up, Ye Zichen and the Great Sage would be at a disadvantage.
However, Ye Zichen was still cautious.
Gu Li wasn't the type of person to speak without thinking. Besides, Ye Zichen had seen demons who could disguise themselves as other races.
However, at that very moment …..
Before the two of them could move, they discovered that the surrounding space had been completely sealed off.
A fierce wind howled through the air, dispersing all the smoke from the smoke bombs. Gu Li stood in the center of the smoke, his gaze clear as he smiled at the sky.
There was no way the brick's stun effect would disappear so quickly. Ye Zichen glanced to the side.
Lying next to Gu Li was a man who looked exactly like him. This was most likely the one who'd actually eaten the brick.
"Do you think you're the only one with more divine artifacts? Don't forget, I'm the Lord of Heaven and Earth as well."
As he spoke, the man beside Gu Li transformed into a puppet.
Ye Zichen recognized this divine artifact. It was ranked seventeenth on the Divine Artifact Rankings.
A substitute puppet!
By feeding it with blood essence, it could transform into the user for a short time. Through the connection between the two, the user could completely disguise themselves as the user and confuse the enemy.
"As for the net that trapped you, I'm sure you recognize it."
It was ranked ninth on the Divine Artifact Rankings: Inescapable Net.
"This guy."
Ye Zichen's gaze turned cold. He hadn't expected their fight to turn into a contest between divine artifacts. However, from the looks of it, it seemed he was slightly inferior to Gu Li.
As expected, when fighting against someone as scheming as Gu Li, he couldn't afford to be careless.
"Actually, what I said earlier was true. At first, I really did fall for your tricks. Thank goodness, thank goodness, I was able to make the correct adjustments after that. What do you think? It looks like I'm the winner again. "
"Are you sure?"
Ye Zichen laughed.
"Do you really think you've won?"
