635. Against Uranus and Pluto
635. Against Uranus and Pluto
A voice rang in everyone's ears, and a battle aura far exceeding that of a Dou Zun erupted in the center of the crowd, indicating that Tianming Lao Yao had arrived.
"Get out of the way!"
"It's a demigod, be careful!"
Among the many people present, their reactions to the sudden appearance of the Heavenly Demon varied. Almost everyone's first reaction was to protect those whose strength was below Dou Zun and help them leave. Only Lei Jingxiao took the lead. After realizing that the Heavenly Demon was an enemy, he immediately swung his golden spear and swept it towards the Heavenly Demon.
In response, Tianming Laoyao merely trembled slightly, easily dodging Lei Jingxiao's spear thrust. He then unleashed a palm strike, sending Lei Jingxiao tumbling away like a ball of lightning. However, it was clear to everyone that Tianming Laoyao's move wasn't intended to cause any harm; he simply wanted to temporarily remove Lei Jingxiao from the attack.
Suddenly, azure flames began to burn in the area in front of the Heavenly Demon. The Heavenly Demon stretched out his pale, bloodless fingers and forcefully grasped the azure flames in his palm. He completely ignored the power of the azure flames, as if he were toying with a toy.
The thunder and fire, accompanied by the roar of a dragon, blasted out. The Heavenly Demon simply blocked it with the azure flame in his hand. The two flames collided with a bang, and the residual power of the flames spread out, but none of them could affect the Heavenly Demon.
At that very moment, Qinglin finally made his move.
She had accurately judged the strength of the Heavenly Demon from the moment he appeared. This person was too strong, and no one else could possibly be his match. She had to take action!
She is now at the peak of Dou Zun, and with all the cultivation paths, resources, techniques, and fighting skills arranged for her by Mingmei, she is enough to be considered the strongest combatant below Dou Sheng.
However, this level of invincibility only applies to those below the Dou Sheng level; there is a vast difference between Dou Sheng and Dou Zun. In fact, Qing Lin sensed immense danger from Tianming Lao Yao from the very beginning. But there was nothing he could do; no one else was a match for him, and if things continued like that, anything could happen.
Qinglin struck out with a soft palm, but the chill within it was extremely pervasive.
Seeing this, the Heavenly Demon King reached out with his five fingers to grab Qing Lin's wrist. Qing Lin reacted extremely quickly, flipping his hand to meet the Heavenly Demon King's pale and somewhat frightening claws.
Qing Lin was sent flying more than ten steps, while Tianming Old Demon only retreated two steps.
The Heavenly Demon shook his hand, which had been locked with Qing Lin's, sending out wisps of cold, bluish-black energy. The outcome of their brief exchange was far more complex than it appeared on the surface.
"Such formidable chilling energy! Even a direct descendant of the Nine Netherworld Python, a Dou Zun powerhouse, might not be able to achieve this. This little girl is indeed powerful; she's worth my special effort to deal with."
After a brief exchange, Qinglin's impact on Tianming Old Demon was considerable. He had already witnessed Qinglin's performance while waiting, but his years of experience had made him subconsciously underestimate this little girl. He just hadn't expected her to be so domineering after their first encounter.
Of course, Tianming Laoyao had actually seen through the source of Qinglin's abilities, but because Qinglin's current situation clearly indicated that he was a normal human, he dared not make a judgment easily.
Qing Lin had no intention of explaining further to his formidable enemy. Instead, he continued to expand his fighting spirit and took the initiative to approach Tianming Old Demon.
Seeing this, the Heavenly Demon King simply said, "If that's your attitude, it will save me a lot of trouble."
At this moment, the Heavenly Demon King made his move again, no longer daring to be careless. He had come to a profound realization: the girl before him possessed strength that he had to take seriously. To disregard her simply because of her age would be the most foolish thing to do.
"Tianming Old Demon is a half-saint level expert. Qinglin is in great danger. We must go and help her!" Tang Zhen, who was the most familiar with Tianming Old Demon among them, said urgently. After Qinglin briefly stalemated with Tianming Old Demon, everyone reacted. After all, only Qinglin had shown the ability to threaten the great formation above them. If things allowed, they would naturally do everything in their power to protect Qinglin's safety.
Before Tang Zhen could make a move, a voice rang out: "Tang Zhen, I didn't expect to run into you here. It seems the Nine Dragons Thunderfire will change hands tonight."
Tang Zhen looked at the figure who had come to him, his body engulfed in colorful flames, and sneered, "Crimson Flame Evil Lord, it seems that the Heavenly Nether Sect has sent out its best troops this time."
"But if you want my Nine Dragons Thunderfire, aren't you afraid of being overwhelmed by the power?" Tang Zhen also attacked directly, showing no mercy with the momentum of the Nine Dragons Thunderfire.
The newcomer possessed the strength of an eight-star Dou Zun, and even with the aid of a strange fire, Tang Zhen was no match for him. Therefore, Kang Ning immediately stepped in to help his old friend. Tang Zhen and the Crimson Flame Evil Lord had previously clashed, and now, in this situation, they were locked in a fierce battle.
Although Tang Zhen and Kang Ning were at a disadvantage in terms of raw strength, one possessed a different kind of fire and the other was an eighth-grade alchemist with stronger soul power than ordinary people. Therefore, the three of them were temporarily locked in a stalemate.
He wasn't the only one who came with Tianming Old Demon; two other Dou Zun powerhouses shrouded in black mist were also currently fighting with Ming Shui Venerable.
Those two were only six-star Dou Zun, and Venerable Ming Shui had the upper hand for the time being, but he was only temporarily unable to leave because he was being held back.
At this moment, only Xiao Yan, Lei Jingxiao, and Wei Jiangyuan remain to help Qing Lin.
After recovering from his previous defeat, Lei Jingxiao wrapped his golden spear in silver lightning and thrust it toward the head of the Heavenly Demon.
Seeing this, Tianming Old Demon briefly withdrew from his fight with Qinglin and brushed Lei Jingxiao's golden spear aside. The distance between a four-star Dou Zun and a half-saint was simply too far, causing Lei Jingxiao's spearhead to veer off course instantly, completely losing control of its direction.
Then Xiao Yan emerged from behind him, the light seal had finished gathering energy, the four seals superimposed, Emperor Seal Technique!
Black energy swirled in Tianming Old Demon's hands, condensing into a black crystalline layer. He caught Xiao Yan's four seals in his hand, ignoring the energy fluctuations within, and directly crushed the Emperor Seal Technique. The explosive energy could no longer penetrate his crystalline layer.
Taking advantage of that brief moment, Wei Jiangyuan made his move, placing his hands on the body of the Heavenly Nether Demon, and emerald flames began to rise. A hint of impatience flashed in the Heavenly Nether Demon's eyes, and he was about to attack when Wei Jiangyuan had already used his speed to leap behind Lei Jingxiao.
"Come on, do it this way, kill this brat!"
