Chapter 140 The Battle Situation Turns Twist, Another Unexpected Turn of Events
In the realm of nothingness, the swirling mists resembled the wailing of ghosts, and the scorching flames of demons seemed like the howling of monsters. It was a sign of the decline of the righteous path and the rise of the demons. Even though the righteous path fought with all their might, the attacks of the demon army were even more fierce. Amidst the smoke and fire of war, the righteous path gradually fell into decline. But then, a radiant glow appeared, illuminating the world as if it were daytime. Above the seven-colored clouds, a majestic figure of the righteous path stood, powerfully suppressing the demons and evil spirits.

Ping Mountain, Ping Mountain, the Dao Realm Ping Mountain, finally descended majestically into the Bitter Realm amidst the anticipation of everyone's gaze.

"Practice Emei!" Tunfo Tongzi's eyes sharpened, then he looked at Tianxian Daocang. "This is your purpose. It seems that Ren Chenfu has already been exposed. What a brilliant counter-espionage scheme."

"Evil cannot prevail over good; this is the way of Heaven!"

The bamboo basket had already been pierced during the battle, revealing the true face beneath the basket. A shocking palm print was visible on the cheek. Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Hen Tie coldly faced him again.

"The tide has turned for offense and defense, kill!"

"Heh." Tunfo Tongzi sneered, and Zhu Yan attacked again, "With your abilities, you will surely die before Lian Emei can extricate himself!"

……

The appearance of the celestial beings instantly boosted the morale of the righteous cultivators, while the demonic forces of the other dimension were thrown into chaos by the sudden arrival of divine soldiers. The demonic consciousness and spiritual insight within the Six First Seats exchanged a glance, their unspoken understanding striking simultaneously. Two streams of black and red demonic energy aimed directly at Lian Emei. However, Lian Emei's eyes remained unmoved; with a gentle flick of her wide sleeves, a transparent energy barrier, like a crystal screen, suddenly materialized.

"Hmm!" The invisible energy collided with the demonic energy, melting away instantly like a hot knife melting snow. The immense residual force did not diminish, but instead struck the demonic consciousness and spiritual perception like a raging wave crashing against the shore. The two had no time to dodge, and with a scream, their bodies were sent flying like tattered rags. When they landed, they had turned into two pools of blood, leaving no trace of their bodies.

"Demonic consciousness, spiritual observation!" The remaining four leaders, Ghost Knowledge, Underworld Insight, Demonic Hearing, and Evil Wisdom, roared angrily upon seeing this, their demonic energy soaring into the sky. The four of them joined forces to pounce on Lian Emei, intending to launch a sneak attack on her just as she unleashed her new move.

But then they saw Lian Emei standing with her hands behind her back, her robes fluttering even without wind, as she channeled her inner energy, unleashing the "Broken Lotus Sorrow!"

A clear, spring-like sound echoed through the secluded valley. Lian Emei raised her palm, and with a flick of her wide sleeves, the entire panorama of Ping Mountain was projected. A thousand verdant peaks transformed into ten thousand streaks of azure rainbow, trailing fireflies like an inverted Milky Way. These azure rainbows coalesced into a ribbon across the sky, tearing through the armor of demonic soldiers like paper. Yao Wen was the first to be struck; his arms barely raised before flesh and blood disintegrated, his demonic body hissing and emitting green smoke within the rainbow light. Xie Hui tried to burrow underground, but found the ground already frozen solid. As the rainbow light pierced his body, it exploded into ice crystal butterflies, vanishing in an instant. The aftershocks swept through, killing and wounding countless demonic soldiers. Gui Zhi and Ming Jian were struck by the residual force, flying backward like broken kites, crashing into the demonic formation, coughing up black blood, their lives hanging by a thread.

In an instant, the previously precarious battle situation was reversed.

"Terrifying cultivation level. I never imagined that the righteous path would have such a hidden trick."

Ye Chongsheng unleashed both palms, forcing back Ye Xiaochai and Jin Bazhen. His gaze swept across the battlefield, and seeing that two of the four commanders had already fallen and the demonic army's formation was like a burst dam, he began to consider retreating.

"retreat!"

At his command, Gui Zuoshi and Fu Tiantang ceased their fighting and immediately retreated. Ye Chongsheng feinted an attack and then vanished into the darkness.

On the battlefield ahead of the Boundless Realm, Guizhi and Mingjian knew that this battle was a defeat and that further fighting would only increase casualties. They also wanted to retreat. However, the power of the Cloud Man was overwhelming, and with one palm strike, the evil spirits could not be allowed to escape.

"The path remains, like duckweed in flight!"

……

……

On the Four Directions Platform, the Demon Lord battles the Pope. Bei Chen Yuan Huang, facing the increasingly powerful Demon Lord, gradually shows signs of weakness. However, on the distant battlefield, the moment Ping Shan lands, an inexplicable impulse causes Yan Mo Han Ba ​​to be momentarily distracted. Bei Chen Yuan Huang seizes the opportunity, counterattacks with a palm strike, and is forced to take a half-step back.

"Demon Lord, you've become distracted during the battle."

"Hmm?" Yama, the Drought Demon, didn't respond, only casting her gaze into the distance. It was there, in that familiar direction, that very direction—the very location of the Realm of Nothingness. Could it be…

Yama Hanba instantly thought of a possibility—

"There's a trap behind the seemingly righteous path!"

Realizing he had fallen into a trap, Yama and Hanba tried to withdraw to support the Realm of Nothingness, but the Demon Dragon was rampant and Beichen Yuanhuang unleashed her ultimate move, not allowing the Demon Lord to escape the battle!
With a loud bang, they all stepped back. Bei Chen Yuan Huang's lips were red as she coldly stared at Yan Mo Han Ba, who was even more annoyed by Bei Chen Yuan Huang's entanglement.

"Beichen Yuanhuang, you truly seek death!" Yanmo Hanba's eyes were sinister, and demonic energy surged around him like a raging sea.

"With the Demon Realm present, where can the Bitter Realm find refuge? Today, we shall meet again in life or death!" Bei Chen Yuan Huang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his dragon energy surging within him. Despite the Five Heavenly Demons constantly pushing his potential, and the dragon energy behind him showing signs of mutation, his fighting spirit remained undiminished. Yama Hanba roared, and the demonic energy on Yama Desolate God Slash surged by three-tenths, like a raging torrent, each move stronger than the last, forcing Bei Chen Yuan Huang to retreat step by step.

However, Bei Chen Yuan Huang remained vigilant and fought relentlessly against Yan Mo Han Ba, with blood dripping down her body. The Five Heavenly Demons continuously pushed Bei Chen Yuan Huang's potential, and the dragon energy behind her showed signs of mutation.

"The Five Heavenly Demonic Arts - Heavenly Demonic Dance!"

"Yama Tenko!"

The blade flashed like a celestial being descending from the heavens, shattering countless demonic shadows, its momentum undiminished, aimed directly at Beichen Yuanhuang. At the critical moment, the spirit banner fluttered, and the Awakened One, leading the ghosts of those resisting within the Shadow Stream, manifested, transforming into a wall of ghosts to block the blade's light. Seeing this, Yama Hanba's eyes flashed with disdain.

"Have you run out of tricks with this? Very well, I'll send you to your death!"

"Heh, I'm afraid the Demon Lord doesn't have the ability to do it."

……

……

At the point where the Flame Demon City was broken, Jiu Huo returned with the items traded in his own pawnshop, intending to use the contents of the box to restore the rift in the Otherworld Demon Realm. However, looking at the scene before him, his expression was solemn.

"Smash the Heavens!" Jiu Huo shouted towards the fault line.

"Empress." A figure appeared vaguely in the lava, her black robe billowing. She was forcibly maintaining the fault line of the Demon Realm with her own strength, preventing the other end from falling directly.

Even Jiu Huo never imagined that his past momentary admiration, which kept the person before him, would preserve a glimmer of hope for the Otherworld Demon Realm to this day.

"As needed for the peripheral battle, you should try to bridge the gaps. It's up to you."

"Hmm? Is the situation that urgent?" The person whom Jiu Huo called Xi Mie Tian Lai said in a deep voice, "Since the materials are ready, then let's go, but you need to be careful, you only have one chance."

"it is good."

With the Nine Calamities' approval, a deep shout rang out, and Xi Mie Tianlai's figure swayed. The deep shout and the awe-inspiring power of a demon were intertwined with the fierce demonic energy, and a faint holy aura could be seen within it. With his dual body, the saint and the demon were one. The extraordinary man activated all his energy, and a rumbling sound rang out continuously. After a while, the rift in the demon realm and the source of demons were gradually pulled out from the endless black hole.
