#5544 - Fall, Failure
"Not good!" The Bi Corpse Demon Lord's heart sank. He hadn't anticipated the Enchantress's keen perception.
He used his corpse body as a formation, and the Corpse Sun was the formation's eye, the convergence point of his entire body's corpse essence.
He controlled all the corpse energy fluctuations through the Corpse Sun, transforming it into various corpse energy landscapes to hinder the Enchantress.
However, after chasing around for a while, the Enchantress stopped dwelling on these minor details and instead went straight for the formation's eye. Moreover, her attacks were extremely fierce, opening her giant mouth towards the sky as if to devour everything. The Corpse Sun swayed, showing signs of instability.
The Bi Corpse Demon Lord grew anxious and quickly used all his skills to maintain the Corpse Sun's stability.
As the Bi Corpse Demon Lord exerted his power, corpse energy continuously poured into the Corpse Sun from all directions, then returned to various parts of his body, forming large and small cycles. Only then did the swaying Corpse Sun slowly stabilize.
The Bi Corpse Demon Lord breathed a sigh of relief. The entire formation was ultimately under his control. The Enchantress's hasty attack had initially caught him off guard and indeed brought him considerable danger.
However, as he calmed down and gradually suppressed the anomalies within his body, the Enchantress's wave of attacks became less effective.
Having broken another one of her killing moves, a smile appeared on the Bi Corpse Demon Lord's face. Direct confrontation with the Enchantress would easily expose weaknesses, allowing her to take advantage and counterattack.
Now, he only needed to proceed steadily, waiting for the Enchantress to make her next move. Every minute he could delay increased his chances of victory.
As this thought arose in his mind, the Bi Corpse Demon Lord suddenly felt a chill run down his spine for no apparent reason.
He hadn't noticed any new movements from the Enchantress, so in theory, this shouldn't be happening. Yet, this sense of unease was undeniably real.
Having cultivated to the Bi Corpse Demon Lord's level, he had developed an almost instinctive sense of danger.
This sense had saved his life countless times. Even without finding any clues, the Bi Corpse Demon Lord was certain that he must have overlooked something somewhere.
"Damn it!" The Bi Corpse Demon Lord suddenly cursed.
No longer bothering to hide, his true form leaped out from under a corpse mountain. A pair of sharp corpse hooks appeared in his hands, his most trusted Bi Emperor Hooks.
He had defeated countless powerful enemies with these hooks. Now, being forced to use them within his own body indicated that he was truly at a critical juncture, leaving him no room for reservation.
Wielding the twin hooks, seven hazy golden lights appeared in the seemingly normal space, with faint bat shadows flickering within the golden light.
The Bi Corpse Demon Lord gasped. The Enchantress had unknowingly integrated the laws of space into her lightning-based laws and insights, using the Bat Shadow Dream Implantation technique to plant these seven Bat Shadow Dream Realms.
The method was indeed incredibly concealed, but after all, this was within his body. Even if the Enchantress's cultivation and strength were greater than his, it wasn't enough to completely deceive his senses.
This was precisely why the Bi Corpse Demon Lord had been somewhat negligent. Who would have thought that the Enchantress would use the fluctuations from their battle, as well as the great killing move of the Demonic Bat Devouring the Sun, to cover up these seven Bat Shadow Dream Realms?
It wasn't that the Bi Corpse Demon Lord couldn't detect them, but rather that he had been careless and his attention had been diverted by the Enchantress.
By the time he realized something was wrong, the seven Bat Shadow Dream Realms had already matured, their auras intertwining and connecting.
The Bi Corpse Demon Lord's continuous attacks were unable to shake them for the time being.
"In fact, this Empress's attacks only appear to be powerful. If you were to clash head-on and refuse to back down, this Empress would likely be unable to defeat you in the end. But now, it's time to end this."
The seven Bat Shadow Dream Realms shone brightly, forming golden halos that wrapped around the Corpse Sun.
In an instant, several golden halos appeared on the Corpse Sun, like several layers of shackles.
The Enchantress's methods had an immediate effect. With the Corpse Sun restricted, the surrounding corpse mist began to dissipate, and the corpse mountains began to collapse.
The Bi Corpse Demon Lord cried out in agony. The other party's laws and insights were permeating his body through the restriction of the Corpse Sun. A single misstep had led to complete defeat.
Externally, the originally thick and resilient corpse energy barrier was being torn open by the frantic attacks of the bat swarm.
However, the Bi Corpse Demon Lord's methods were clearly not as effective as before. Most of the dissolved corpse water condensed together, forming a giant liquid sphere, no longer completely transforming into corpse mist as before.
As more and more bats poured in, the corpse mist began to thin out.
Lightning arcs crisscrossed within. Seeing this, Lu Xiaotian finally breathed a sigh of relief. The Bi Corpse Demon Lord was still persisting, but the outcome had already been decided. The most dangerous time for the Enchantress had passed.
"Such a powerful aura! The Bi Corpse Demon Lord is using the Nihility Demon Blade's phantom image to fight desperately!" The Thunder Roc Palace Lord exclaimed.
"It's alright. The outcome was decided when the corpse energy barrier collapsed. The Bi Corpse Demon Lord is only putting up a final resistance.
If he had realized the situation earlier and accepted defeat, he could have escaped with some of his Nascent Soul. If he remains unwilling and hesitates, another Demon Lord will fall within this Dragon Domain."
Lu Xiaotian smiled faintly, then closed his eyes, no longer paying attention to the battle. Instead, he focused his energy on the area surrounding the Enchantress's cave dwelling. The closer one is to victory, the less one can afford to be careless.
The Enchantress was fighting with her back against the wall. Any attack on her body could reverse this seemingly assured victory.
Even though the demonic energy on the Bi Corpse Demon Lord's body was gradually reaching its peak, this was ultimately a battle primarily of Nascent Souls.
Lu Xiaotian couldn't see the specific details. Besides personally protecting the Enchantress, Lu Xiaotian hadn't stopped his deduction of the Sumeru Saint Dao Pill for a moment.
At the same time, a strange fluctuation came from within the Void Sky Child Cauldron, giving Lu Xiaotian a feeling that was both unusually familiar and somewhat strange.
The familiarity came from sensing the aura of another Child Cauldron. The strangeness came from the fact that this Child Cauldron also had an owner, temporarily belonging to someone else.
Lu Xiaotian's eyes flickered. With most of his Nascent Soul body lost in Muye, his main body's strength had been constantly improving, but the speed of this improvement couldn't keep up with the losses.
His main body's cultivation speed wasn't slow, but without other factors, it would be difficult for Lu Xiaotian to make a breakthrough in a short time.
The sudden sensing of the Void Sky Child Cauldron's aura gave Lu Xiaotian a sense of possibility.
Among the many laws and insights he cultivated, the most proficient was naturally the blood-based law, the foundation of the True Dragon.
Then came the Five Elements and the Three Wonders, followed by the spatial law. As for the temporal law, he had only touched upon a little bit of its surface, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to comprehend.
Although the spatial law was currently complete, it was clearly a weakness compared to other laws.
If he could take it a step further and integrate it with other laws and insights, his speed of improvement would increase again. The Sumeru Saint Dao Pill he was preparing to refine was also based on this consideration.
While Lu Xiaotian was pondering, the pure and unique demonic aura belonging to Yan Ji also soared into the sky.
"Heavenly Crossing Demon Bottle?" Lu Xiaotian's eyes lit up. Among the illusory images of the four great world-suppressing treasures of the Immortal, Demon, Ghost, and Monster realms, Lu Xiaotian had already seen three of them, with only this Heavenly Crossing Demon Bottle remaining unexperienced firsthand.
It's a pity that I can't personally fight it, Lu Xiaotian thought with regret.
"What an Originless Demon Blade. This Queen was conferred the title of Demon Lord in the form of a Demon Bat, unprecedented in several realms.
This Queen will see whether your Originless Demon Blade's shadow is more powerful, or this Queen's Heavenly Crossing Demon Bottle is stronger."
The Corpse Demon Lord Bishi's eyes were filled with a ferocious look as he integrated the Originless Demon Blade's shadow into the Bishi Emperor Hook, and the bizarre long hook was unreservedly swung out.
Yan Ji's figure manifested, and she also swung out a blade, the aura of the Heavenly Crossing Demon Bottle blessing the Demon Bat Blade.
Buzz, the two sides were in a stalemate for a time, but the corpse sun, which was being restrained, gradually shifted from the void, and under the mouth of the light golden bat shadow, it was difficult to maintain its original stability.
The Corpse Demon Lord Bishi tried his best to reverse the situation, but at this time, he was already in internal and external difficulties. Internally, he was completely suppressed by Yan Ji, and externally, a large number of laws and profound meanings, mainly of the lightning element, were also eroding his body.
No matter how unwilling the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi was, he also realized that the general trend was over. If he didn't leave now, he was afraid that he would really fall here.
It's just that if he withdraws now, 70 to 80 percent of his Nascent Soul Demon Body will be lost, and being demoted from the position of Demon Lord by Yan Ji has become inevitable.
After weighing the pros and cons, the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi sighed, and a series of violent explosions rose from his body. A large amount of corpse energy erupted, and the restrained corpse sun burst out with a large amount of corpse fire. In the blink of an eye, the void was completely covered by corpse fire.
The Corpse Demon Lord Bishi's pair of Bishi Emperor Hooks greatly increased in power, and he actually forced Yan Ji back with a hook.
Yan Ji naturally knew the consequences of the other party's outburst. Even as her body floated backward, she still swung out several blades forward.
Amidst the rolling corpse energy, screams rang out one after another, and two sections of a purple-gold crown, and a demon corpse with a face like jade, fell from the corpse energy.
Only a corpse shadow fused with one of the Bishi Emperor Hooks and shot away like lightning. The other Bishi Emperor Hook, as a cover, had already been cut into two sections by Yan Ji.
The Corpse Demon Lord Bishi, as a titled powerhouse in the Demon Realm, only had a corpse shadow left to escape, his strength plummeting. He was even inferior to his two capable subordinates whose strength was comparable to the Thunder Peng Palace Lord. Even if he escaped from this place, he was no longer a threat.
Behind Yan Ji, a huge bottle shadow floated up. Within the bottle shadow, there seemed to be a light golden demon bat, its bat mouth opening, greedily devouring everything in front of it.
Invading the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi's body with the Dream Inception of the Bat Shadow was an extremely dangerous process. Once defeated, Yan Ji's soul origin would be absorbed by the other party, which could be described as a certain death.
However, under the extremely high risk, the benefits gained from defeating the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi were also unimaginable.
After the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi was defeated, the Originless Demon Blade aura left behind, as well as the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi's soul origin, were all absorbed into the bottle shadow.
Yan Ji's eyes became brighter and brighter, looking like two incomparably dazzling gems.
Yan Ji looked in Lu Xiaotian's direction, revealing a faint smile, as if declaring her success.
The Halberd of the Heavens responded with a low dragon roar. Before the sound had dissipated, Yan Ji took a step, and in the next instant, she had returned to her main body within the cave.
"Demon Lord has fallen!" The forces belonging to the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi suddenly heard such bad news, and were at a loss for a time.
After the news was confirmed, the morale of these demon corpse armies plummeted. They were followed and hunted down by the Ye Shi Clan, the Dragon Wolf Cavalry, the human race within the Dragon Domain, and the Hua Yan Clan. They were killed, leaving corpses strewn across the fields, and after paying a heavy price in casualties, the remnants barely escaped the scope of the Dragon Domain.
Although the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi's combat power was not as good as Yan Ji's, he was also a well-known figure outside. His subordinates Bichen and Bihe had both successfully broken through to the Demon Lord level after this Immortal-Demon battlefield was opened.
Even if their foundations were weaker, it was enough to make the momentum of the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi's forces greatly increase.
His Bishi Armored Corpse Army was also extremely elite, and had made countless military exploits on the Immortal-Demon battlefield. They were an extremely troublesome and powerful force for the Monster and Immortal realms.
The Corpse Demon Lord Bishi's invasion of the Dragon Domain this time, in addition to having enough confidence in himself, was also due to the rapid increase in the strength of his subordinates, and he had also received news that Lu Xiaotian's strength had been greatly reduced.
This time to the Dragon Domain, Lu Xiaotian, the strongest Dragon Lord, did not actually take action. But who would have thought that he would be defeated by Yan Ji before even seeing Lu Xiaotian.
The morale of the Dragon Domain side was greatly boosted. Although the Dragon Domain had grown up in a very short period of time, under the continuous battles and killings, facing challenges from different forces from several realms, in addition to the Dragon Clan, the Dragon Wolf Cavalry, the Ye Shi Clan, and the Hua Yan Clan belonging to the Earthly Tower City were also growing rapidly.
With the fall of the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi, while causing a great uproar in the outside world, the Demon Bat Yan Ji also became famous.
The outside world realized that even in the situation where Lu Xiaotian's strength was greatly reduced, it was by no means easy to take the Dragon Domain.
Regardless of the disturbances in the outside world, the crisis shrouded in the Dragon Domain has not yet been resolved. As the intensity of the war in several passages has decreased slightly, the Dragon Domain has also ushered in a rare period of relative peace.
Lu Xiaotian glanced at the depths of the void. Yan Ji's strength increased extremely rapidly after defeating the Corpse Demon Lord Bishi, which he didn't need to worry about anymore.
It was Kong Yan who encountered trouble in breaking through to the Monster Lord level. The fluctuation of space power around him seemed powerful, but there was actually a trace of disorder inside. Under this situation, forcibly continuing to break through would be tantamount to seeking death.
Sure enough, a helpless sigh sounded from the depths of the space fluctuation. After several days, the space fluctuation inside generally dissipated, and Kong Yan walked out of it with a haggard complexion.
"This junior is incompetent and has failed the Dragon Lord's trust." After a short while, Kong Yan came to Lu Xiaotian with a pale face and bowed his hands in salute.
The Dragon Domain is at risk of destruction at any time. In this time of crisis, Lu Xiaotian has provided him with a lot of resources. He has not been allowed to participate in several major battles, and he has even provided him with space treasures such as the Origin Crystal of Space.
Kong Yan's physical body was damaged in his early years. Although the remaining Nascent Soul Body has been rebuilt, it still delayed his time.
Of the four great guardians of the Kong Ying Clan, the other two left when the Kong Ying Clan split, leaving only him to shoulder the burden.
The hopes placed on him are indeed many, but under this situation, he still failed. Kong Yan is not only ashamed of Lu Xiaotian, but also uneasy about the high expectations placed on him by the clan.
"It's okay. It was wise of you to give up forcibly breaking through at a critical moment. The damage to your origin is not serious this time. After your state of mind is calm, there is still a chance," Lu Xiaotian comforted.
