The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

The earth-shattering explosion echoed through the valley, and ripples of energy spread outwards, turning the surrounding trees and rocks into dust.

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, the figures of Jiang Chuan and the Bull Demon King appeared and disappeared, their battle seemingly undecided.

"Cough cough..."

Jiang Chuan felt a mouthful of blood rise in his throat, barely managing to steady himself, his eyes fixed on the front.

He wasn't sure if his counterattack would work, but he knew he had to persevere, and he couldn't give up even if there was only a sliver of hope.

"Ok?"

The Bull Demon King's voice rang out from the smoke, tinged with surprise, "You actually managed to withstand that attack, you're quite interesting."

"I said, even if I'm shattered to pieces, I'll fight you to the very end!"

Jiang Chuan suppressed his pain, his hand gripping the sword trembling slightly, but his tone was incredibly firm.

"good very good!"

The Bull Demon King snorted coldly, his voice tinged with admiration, "Since that's the case, I'll play with you to your heart's content!"

As the words fell, the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and the figure of the Bull Demon King reappeared, his iron cudgel still as powerful as ever.

He stared coldly at Jiang Chuan, his eyes flashing with a bloodthirsty light, clearly unaffected.

Jiang Chuan, though pale and covered in wounds, displayed an even stronger will.

He gripped the Dragon Roar Sword tightly, the power of the stars swirling around him, preparing for the even more brutal battle to come.

"Come again!"

Jiang Chuan roared, his figure vanished from the spot in an instant, and the next moment he appeared beside the Bull Demon King. The Dragon Roar Sword, imbued with the power of stars, pierced straight for the Bull Demon King's heart.

"court death!"

The Bull Demon King roared and swung his Iron Cudgel swiftly, clashing with the Dragon Roar Sword once more.

A new round of fierce fighting ensued, with the two figures clashing and the sounds of weapons hitting each other filling the air.

Despite Jiang Chuan's strength greatly increasing in the third state of Flow.

However, facing the Bull Demon King wielding a mixed iron cudgel and unleashing his full power, he was always at a disadvantage and could only struggle to hold on.

The Bull Demon King's iron cudgel struck like a storm, each blow containing terrifying power capable of destroying mountains.

Jiang Chuan had no choice but to face the challenge head-on.

He swiftly drew the dagger he had used to assassinate the King of Qin from his robes, and a chill instantly spread, as if even the surrounding air had been frozen.

"You think this little gadget can stop me?"

The Bull Demon King caught a glimpse of the dagger in Jiang Chuan's hand and a contemptuous smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

“Try it and you’ll know!”

Jiang Chuan said in a deep voice, his eyes resolute.

With a flick of his wrist, the dagger flew from his hand, instantly slicing through the night sky and heading straight for the Bull Demon King.

At the same time, he whispered, "Freeze time!"

In an instant, the Bull Demon King's movements seemed to slow down, as if he were bound by an invisible force, and everything around him seemed to freeze.

It was the time-freezing ability released by the dagger that successfully caused the Bull Demon King to freeze for two seconds.

Jiang Chuan seized this precious opportunity, and the last of his spiritual power surged wildly, pouring it all into the Dragon Roar Sword.

He roared to the sky, the tip of his sword pointing upwards, and the power of the brilliant stars poured down like a waterfall, gathering on the sword.

Then, he swung his sword swiftly, tearing a huge star-shaped crack from the tip of the sword, which rushed towards the Bull Demon King who was frozen in mid-air.

"Star Rift!"

With Jiang Chuan's roar, the Star Cleave skill struck like a falling meteor, carrying the force of a thunderbolt, and fiercely slashed at the Bull Demon King.

In that instant, the heavens and earth changed color, as if all things in the world held their breath and waited for the outcome of this life-or-death struggle.

"Boom!"

The Star Rift collided violently with the Bull Demon King's body, unleashing a deafening sound.

The shockwave spread like ripples, whipping up gusts of wind that caused the surrounding vegetation to sway and tilt.

Immediately afterwards, with a "bang," the energy of the Star Rift exploded on the Bull Demon King's body.

Countless fragments of stars scattered, illuminating the dark night sky.

However, when the light faded and the smoke cleared.

The Bull Demon King's figure stood tall and unyielding, though his armor was slightly charred and wisps of smoke rose from his shoulders.

A mocking smile played on his lips; he appeared completely unharmed.

"Is that all you've got? A mere mid-stage Xuan rank? I'm truly disappointed."

The Bull Demon King spoke with sarcasm and disdain.

Jiang Chuan's heart sank. Looking at the Bull Demon King's relaxed appearance, he could not hide his shock and despair.

He knew that the attack he had just delivered was the strongest he could muster, yet it had not been able to budge the Bull Demon King in the slightest.

At this moment, he felt as if he were in boundless darkness, unable to find any hope of defeating the enemy.

"You are nothing but a clown, daring to challenge my authority; you are simply courting death."

The Bull Demon King gripped his iron cudgel tightly, his eyes flashing with icy killing intent. "Since you're so eager to die, I'll grant your wish!"

"I will not give up!"

Jiang Chuan gritted his teeth; despite his physical and mental exhaustion, his eyes remained as firm as ever.

He knew that at this moment he was like a candle flame flickering in the wind and rain, which could be extinguished at any time.

But he understood even more clearly that only by holding fast to his beliefs could he find a glimmer of hope.

"Then let's taste my treasure, the Iron Cudgel!"

The Bull Demon King snorted coldly, and swung his Iron Cudgel through the air, carrying immense demonic power, smashing it towards Jiang Chuan with unstoppable force.

Facing the Bull Demon King's fatal blow, Jiang Chuan took a deep breath and once again gathered the remaining spiritual power within his body.

He gripped the Dragon Roar Sword tightly, its tip pointing at the Bull Demon King, as if to tell him something.

Even when faced with dire straits, he would never bow his head.

"I, Jiangchuan, would rather die a glorious death than live a shameful life!"

Jiang Chuan shouted sharply, leaping up to meet the whistling iron rod head-on.

Their figures intertwined in the air, creating a tragic scene that revealed the cruelty and intensity of this fateful battle.

Just as the two were about to collide, a resolute glint flashed in Jiang Chuan's eyes, and he murmured, "Star Guardian, activate!"

The next moment, a layer of pale golden light quietly enveloped Jiang Chuan's entire body; that was his last trump card—Star Guardian.

He risked everything, just to bring an unexpected shock to the Bull Demon King at this critical moment of life and death.

"boom!"

The iron rod collided violently with the Star Guardian, triggering a tremendous explosion.

Smoke and dust filled the air, obscuring the view and making it impossible to see what was happening inside.

As the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, Jiang Chuan strained to open his eyes and stared into the depths of the dust.

His heart pounded like a drum, yet he had to suppress his fear and force himself to stay alert.

The Bull Demon King stood proudly in the center of the dust, effortlessly patting the dust off his body as if the fierce battle he had just experienced was nothing more than a gentle breeze.

His expression was cold, a nonchalant mockery on his face, his arrogant gaze fixed on Jiang Chuan. "Is this all the strength you have?"

The Bull Demon King sneered, his words filled with disdain.

"What a disappointment. I thought you could take care of those two useless trash, Jiuying and Yuanmo, but it turns out you're just another pathetic ant."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan was shocked. Anger and resentment mingled within him, and his breathing became even heavier as his breathing became disordered.

He gripped the Dragon Roar Sword tightly. Although the sword was dull and lifeless due to the depletion of spiritual energy, his eyes burned with fierce fighting spirit, determined never to yield.

"I haven't lost yet!"

"I can still fight!"

Jiang Chuan responded hoarsely.

"Still being stubborn even when death is imminent!"

"It's not a pity to die!"

The Bull Demon King snorted coldly, ignoring Jiang Chuan's rebuttal, his eyes filled with even more killing intent.

He raised the iron rod again, poised to deliver the final blow to Jiang Chuan.

At this moment, Jiang Chuan's spiritual power was almost exhausted, and his body was extremely weak. He was powerless to resist the Bull Demon King's attack.

Seeing the iron rod hurtling towards him with destructive force, he closed his eyes in despair, awaiting the merciless judgment of fate.

"boom…"

Jiang Chuan was sent flying like a cannonball!
However, at this critical moment, a familiar figure flashed by like lightning and caught Jiang Chuan as he flew backwards in mid-air.

It's Shen Jing!
"Jiang Chuan, hold on!"

Shen Jing's anxious voice rang in his ears. He hugged Jiang Chuan tightly, feeling his faint breath and burning body temperature.

Without hesitation, he pulled a pill with a warm, lustrous sheen from his pocket and forcefully stuffed it into Jiang Chuan's mouth.

"This is a Spirit Recovery Pill, which can quickly restore spiritual power. You must hold on!"

Shen Jing's words were full of concern and determination.

Jiang Chuan swallowed the Rejuvenation Pill with difficulty, his throat bobbing. A warm current instantly surged into his limbs and bones, as if parched soil had been nourished by sweet rain.

Unlike the spiritual world, this pill restores spiritual power much faster than his own spiritual world.

He gave Shen Jing a deep look, his gratitude evident in his eyes.

At the same time, Qingyun also arrived. He held a jade sword, his expression solemn, and looked at the Bull Demon King without any fear.

The Bull Demon King witnessed all this, and the sneer on his face became even more obvious. He sneered, "Two more people have come to their deaths. You must be Jiang Chuan's helpers."

"Very well, it saves me the trouble of going to find you all one by one."

Shen Jing settled Jiang Chuan aside, then turned to face the Bull Demon King, his eyes resolute: "We have come for justice, to protect innocent lives, how could we be afraid of evil heretics like you!"

Qingyun followed closely behind, straightened his back, and said loudly, "Big Brother is not fighting alone; we will all accompany him to the end!"

Jiang Chuan leaned against Shen Jing, deeply moved by the inspiring words of his two close friends.

He gripped the Dragon Roar Sword tightly; although his body had not fully recovered, his fighting spirit had been ignited.

"thank you all."

Jiang Chuan said in a low voice, his voice weak but full of deep emotion, "Today, we fight side by side, vowing to eradicate this monster!"

Upon hearing this, the Bull Demon King's eyes flashed with a strange light, then he sneered repeatedly: "Very well, then let me see how you so-called 'righteous men' will be reduced to ashes before my eyes!"

Having said that, the Bull Demon King exhaled demonic energy.

The demonic energy churned and surged in the air.

It actually transformed into two identical clones!

“There are three of you, and I have three here too.”

"Three against three, isn't that fair?"

Before the Bull Demon King could finish speaking, he swung his iron cudgel with great force, stirring up a gust of wind with overwhelming power.

The two clones, created from demonic energy, moved in the same way as the real body.

They simultaneously swung their sticks, forming a three-way encirclement, and headed straight for Jiang Chuan, Shen Jing, and Qing Yun.

Jiang Chuan's expression was solemn. He knew that these three Bull Demon Kings were not bluffing, but were real entities with actual attack power.

He endured the pain and tried to stand up, but Shen Jing pressed down on his shoulder: "Jiang Chuan, you recover first, leave this to us."

As soon as Shen Jing finished speaking, his figure vanished from the spot, leaving behind an afterimage.

He appeared behind one of the Bull Demon Kings with lightning speed, unleashing a series of Bagua Palm attacks, his palm winds as sharp as knives, aimed directly at the opponent's vital points.

However, the Bull Demon King reacted extremely quickly. He instinctively twisted his body and easily avoided Shen Jing's attack, then swung his staff horizontally in return.

Shen Jing paused, using the Bagua Step to skillfully dodge the wind from the staff. At the same time, he flipped his palm, using the force against him, and redirected the Bull Demon King's attack towards another clone.

The two demonic forces collided, sparking a burst of sparks that briefly halted their attack.

Qingyun twirled the jade sword in his hand, its sword energy like a rainbow, transforming into beams of green light that pierced straight towards the Bull Demon King in front of him.

However, the Bull Demon King easily deflected the attack, flicking the end of his staff and knocking the jade sword away. Qingyun also staggered back several steps, his face pale.

The Bull Demon King snorted coldly: "The three of you working together are nothing special."

"Today, I will show you what the true power of a demon king is!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the three Bull Demon Kings raised their staffs at the same time. Their immense demonic energy converged into a dark red vortex, which swallowed the surrounding light like a black hole. The terrifying sense of oppression made people's hearts tremble.

Jiang Chuan, Shen Jing, and Qing Yun stood back to back, each mobilizing their remaining spiritual power, ready for battle.

At this critical moment of life and death, the power of the Rejuvenation Pill within Jiang Chuan's body was surging wildly, nourishing his exhausted body like a spring tide.

He gritted his teeth and tried his best to regulate his breathing, attempting to regain his fighting ability in the shortest possible time.

Shen Jing and Qingyun stood firmly on either side of him, their faith and courage like a solid bulwark, giving Jiang Chuan unwavering strength.

He slowly opened his eyes, the flames in them burning even brighter, a testament to his unwavering resolve and determination.

"Jiang Chuan, how are you feeling?"

Shen Jing asked in a low voice. Although he appeared calm on the surface, his slightly trembling fingers betrayed his nervousness.

Jiang Chuan nodded slightly, his voice hoarse but full of strength: "I can still fight."

He struggled to his feet, and the Dragon Roar Sword in his hand regained its faint light.

The Bull Demon King coldly watched this scene, a cruel smile curling at the corner of his mouth: "A death throes, all in vain!"

He roared, and the dark red vortex of demonic energy suddenly expanded, as if it would devour the entire world within it.

"Come on, let us see your so-called justice!"

He ordered his two clones to launch the first attack, and the Iron Cudgel, carrying a world-destroying momentum, blasted towards Shen Jing and Qing Yun respectively.

Shen Jing took a deep breath, and a vast golden light suddenly surged around him. Under his control, the Bagua Palm transformed into a series of golden torrents, precisely meeting the incoming iron cudgel.

Each collision of palm strikes and staff shadows unleashed astonishing energy fluctuations, causing the ground to crack and vegetation to wither.

But the next second, the Bull Demon King's surging demonic power instantly sent Shen Jing flying!

"puff……"

Shen Jing coughed up a mouthful of blood, staring at the scene before him in disbelief.

What exactly just happened? (End of Chapter)
