Embers of Sword

Chapter 662 Fighting
Rumble!
Wu Jiu waved his sleeve and unleashed a divine light.

A dazzling divine light swept across the sea of ​​fire, heading towards the black-clad swordsman.

"Wu Jiu...No!"

Jiang Huang, sitting on the throne, immediately changed color and wanted to speak up to stop them.

Although his main soul had just awakened, the memories of his divine sea were shared...

She knew that Xie Xuanyi was only a Yin God on the surface, but he had terrifying strength to fight against Yang Gods!
In the reed marshes of Beihai, this guy used various methods to kill Chongkan, a Daoist Grand Master of the Eighth Heaven! No matter how weak Chongkan was or how many injuries he suffered... such strength is something that a newly promoted Yang God cannot match!

It's too late.

Even if you speak up beforehand, Wu Jiu won't listen.

The golden crow's divine light struck the flying sword.

The black-clad swordsman neither dodged nor evaded; amidst the roar, countless bursts of molten lava erupted, engulfing Xie Xuanyi's figure.

Crash.

Molten lava rained down, but the figure with the suspended sword vanished in an instant.

"Ok?"

Wu Jiu frowned, a hint of surprise rising in his heart.

In his opinion.

It was perfectly normal for the Yin spirit to be unable to dodge its own attack. Logically speaking, after this strike, Xie Xuanyi should have sunk into the sea of ​​molten lava and perished. However, a sense of unease lingered in his heart.

"Wu Jiu! Behind you!"

next moment.

The female demon who emerged from the gates of the Heavenly Phoenix Palace suddenly spoke loudly.

Wu Jiu's pupils contracted. He whirled around, only to find the figure with the suspended sword already behind him, the flying sword hurtling towards him at incredible speed—

Is this guy insane? Trying to fight a powerful demon god of the Yang realm with the body of a Yin spirit?!
Wu Jiu's mind went blank for a moment.

hum!
The sword sounded.

Xie Xuanyi raised his hand and wiped it across, his natal flying sword [Sinking Illness] transforming into a strand of golden thread that instantly sliced ​​across Wu Jiu's neck!

In that instant—

A profound life-or-death crisis emerged within Wujiu Heart Lake.

"Ow!"

Wu Jiu roared and raised his hands to receive the blow in an extremely humiliating manner.

The female demon's reminder was extremely timely.

珰!
The sound of metal clashing exploded at the bottom of the volcano. This sword was extremely powerful. Sparks flew from Wu Jiu's arms. The skin of this great demon god was actually cut and shattered, and countless drops of blood spurted in the air... This attack was not over. After the slash, Xie Xuanyi successfully crashed into Wu Jiu's arms. He raised his palm and seemingly casually pressed it on the chest of this newly promoted great master.

The Devouring Yuan Scroll and the Devouring Dao Scroll are activated simultaneously!

The Dao Realm of Annihilation has mobilized its entire force!

A loud bang—

Wu Jiu spat out a mouthful of blood, his body blasted away, crashing straight into the molten lava sea, scattering countless sparks...

Chi Chi Chi.

The molten lava churned and emitted countless waves of heat and smoke.

Unfortunately, Wu Jiu was, after all, a great demon of the Yang God realm, and like the Phoenix, the Golden Crow was naturally fond of heat, so the underground magma would not take his life.

soon.

A head emerged from the lava.

Wu Jiu, with disheveled hair, slowly emerged.

His face was pale, and his expression was extremely ugly. His once magnificent golden armor had been torn to shreds by the Dao of Annihilation, and he had completely lost his former imposing presence.

The Heavenly Phoenix Palace Yang God rose from the sea of ​​molten lava and fire. He stared intently at the black-clad swordsman whose sword was suspended in mid-air, his whole body trembling... He couldn't believe that he had been at a disadvantage in his fight against a human Yin God Venerable.

"Crackling sounds..." Wu Jiu clenched his fist, his knuckles cracking.

The molten lava flowed down his skin like water.

A ray of golden light appeared between his brows, and with its appearance, the air in the entire volcanic world became stagnant and oppressive.

"..."

Xie Xuanyi examined the golden light, his expression becoming somewhat solemn.

This must be a supernatural power descended from the Golden Crow clan?
This supernatural power should not be underestimated. Even before it was used, he felt a sense of unease in his heart.

"Wu Jiu!"

The female demon's voice interrupted the gathering of supernatural powers.

She spoke again, her voice sharp and cold.

"Don't forget why we came here... Did the Heavenly Phoenix Palace go to great lengths to open this door so you could fight?"

The resonance between the Phoenix Blood and the Throne made Mount Jinli an anchor point.

The Heavenly Phoenix Palace is located in the far north of the Demon Kingdom.

They are thousands of miles apart.

Opening this door requires an enormous amount of vital energy—

The Demon Kingdom was already weak in terms of vital energy. This time, when it opened its gates, it sent three Yang Gods to the gates in one go. It had only one purpose!
They successfully took Jiang Huang away.

This is the main task of the three great demons.

“Dead Phoenix, there’s no need to be angry… Little Wu has never suffered such a great loss since he started cultivating, so it’s normal for him to be angry.”

Of the three great demons, the one who had remained silent spoke with a smile.

This great demon was clad in crimson armor, and its aura was far stronger than Wu Jiu's... This was not a newly promoted young Yang God, but a powerful being who had attained enlightenment long ago.

He looked at the young swordsman in front of him, his expression full of emotion: "Xie Xuanyi, I have heard of your name. You are indeed an extraordinary genius... However, you have an even more extraordinary master."

Xie Xuanyi is the greatest genius of the Great Sui Sword Palace in a thousand years.

Whether it's Da Chu or Da Li, everyone knows them.

but……

In the demon kingdom, Xie Xuanyi's name wouldn't be so well-known.

Every twenty or thirty years, or even every sixty years, the great cultivators of the Demon Kingdom would hear the names of several extraordinary young people.

Initially, the Demon Kingdom spared no effort in eliminating young geniuses who might pose a threat to it.

Later, those powerful figures discovered that these so-called young human geniuses weren't as formidable as they seemed. Perhaps due to racial characteristics, these human cultivators displayed extremely strong combat talent in the Cave Heaven Realm and Yin God Realm, but their abilities diminished as they progressed. These renowned young geniuses were mostly short-lived, leaving behind a dazzling and impressive legacy before fading into obscurity…

Figures of Xiaoyaozi and Zhao Chunyang's caliber are the ones that the demon kingdom fears and dreads.

In the battle of drinking poison back then, only two or three people inflicted heavy damage on the demon kingdom.

"With Zhao Chunyang's cultivation level... it should only take him a hundred breaths, or even less, to tear through the void from the Great Sui Sword Palace and arrive here."

The Crimson-Armored Demon sighed and said leisurely, "Judging from your calm demeanor, have you already used the 'Lotus Token' to send a message? If you have, then we may only have half the time left."

Xie Xuanyi stood on the sword, silent.

“Dead Phoenix, Wu Jiu.”

The crimson-armored demon smiled and said, "You take the throne master back to the Heavenly Phoenix Palace... leave the rest to me."

He stepped forward, standing above the sea of ​​molten lava, his gaze fixed on Xie Xuanyi.

The geniuses that the Demon Kingdom has been desperately trying to eliminate over the years are just like this.

Able to fight against a Yang God while only at the Yin God Realm...

Such strength is unprecedented.

Once this young man is promoted, the Demon Kingdom will face a brand new, extremely young "Zhao Chunyang" who is in a long-term peak period!
