Chapter 368: Spirit of the Ladder
The power Indra is exerting at this moment is only in normal state. If he is in enhanced state, he can suppress the demon within thirty moves.
Even without the blessing state, Indra has the confidence to defeat the Demon King. After all, he is not at his full strength now.
"Everything returns to one, the sword of chaos!"
Suddenly, Emperor Shitian roared angrily, and the Tianque Sword burst out with brilliant light again. The light instantly dispelled the darkness of the entire demon cave, and the Demon King's clutches were also split open by the sword.
This sword also utilized the Way of Chaos and was a variation of "Chaos Sorrow", focusing on offensive power and causing severe damage to the Demon Emperor.
However, the Demon King did not retreat, but instead showed a sinister smile: "What a great Emperor Shitian, it seems that you do have some skills, but this battle has just begun!"
Following the Demon Emperor's cold laugh, the space of the entire demon cave shook violently, and the power of darkness swept in again, as if an endless disaster had come.
Indra was shocked. The dark power of the devil's cave was like an endless abyss, swallowing up all the light.
He knew that the battle was far from over, the Demon Emperor's power was unfathomable, and this was his home ground. If he didn't try his best, he would probably not survive.
"Void barrier!"
Indra used his defensive magic to block the invasion of darkness, and secretly mobilized the power of the world, preparing to use his ultimate move to decide the outcome.
"Hmph, it's nothing but a trapped beast fighting!" The Demon Emperor snorted coldly and condensed more demonic energy in his hands, forming countless sharp demonic blades, which attacked Emperor Shitian in an overwhelming manner.
Indra did not dare to be negligent. The Tianque sword danced in his hand like the wind. The sword light was like a rainbow and as fast as lightning.
He threw himself into it with all his heart, and each of his swords contained the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, cutting off the attacking demonic blades one by one.
The atmosphere on the battlefield became increasingly tense, and the vibrations in the demon cave became more violent, as if the whole world was echoing the confrontation between the two forces.
While Emperor Shitian was fending off the attacks of the Demon Emperor, he was concentrating his attention and preparing to use his ultimate move, and he looked a little embarrassed.
After becoming an immortal, he discovered that the immortal energy in the human world was very thin and almost non-existent, and was indeed not suitable for the survival of immortals and demons. If he stayed in the human world for too long, his immortal energy would not be replenished, and his cultivation would probably degenerate.
Fortunately, the mortal immortals can not only absorb immortal energy, but also refine all spiritual energy (energy) and use it as immortal energy. However, compared with the immortal world, the efficiency is naturally much lower.
After all, the spiritual energy of the entire human world is not enough to support a few mortal immortals.
When Emperor Shitian broke through, it was still relying on the foundation of the Heavenly Ladder that made him successful, and he consumed countless amounts of luck. Now, fighting with the Demon Emperor, the burden is enormous.
Sweat soaked his clothes, but his eyes remained firm.
At this moment, the Demon King suddenly withdrew all his attacks. His eyes flashed with an unpredictable light, and a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“Emperor Shitian, this is my home ground. If you want to compete with me in attrition, I’m afraid you will lose miserably. Now, let me show you my true skills!”
After saying this, the Demon Emperor raised his hands high, the sky suddenly darkened, and an atmosphere of despair spread.
A low rumble of thunder was heard in the distance, and a huge crack appeared in the abyss.
A black beam of light shot out from the crack and shot straight at the Demon Emperor. His power instantly surged and became even more violent.
“This... is the Evil Eye? No, it’s not the Evil Eye, it should be the Evil Eye’s true form—the ancient evil demon!” Bai Suzhen exclaimed, her face suddenly becoming extremely nervous.
She didn't expect that the Black Lotus Demon Emperor not only had amazing strength, but could also borrow the power of the ancient evil demon. Could he be the descendant of the ancient evil demon?
In fact, she guessed wrong.
The Black Lotus Demon Emperor is not the descendant of the ancient evil demon, but the ancient evil demon’s natal magic weapon - the Nine-Pole Black Lotus!
The Nine-Pole Black Lotus is a treasure of the demon god (immortal king) level. When the ancient evil demon died, he injected his life's cultivation into the Nine-Pole Black Lotus, waiting for his return in the future.
It's just that the ancient evil demon is dead and his soul is destroyed, and his remaining will is very weak.
After billions of years, he was finally able to condense only an evil eye. He was completely unable to control the Nine-Pole Black Lotus, which instead benefited the Nine-Pole Black Lotus.
In order to refine the power of the ancient evil demon, the Nine-Polar Black Lotus has been sleeping in the abyss.
Over countless years, he refined a large amount of dark power... until not long ago, the dark side awakened him and named him the Fifth Demon Emperor.
The dark side did this because it planned to use the power of the Nine-Pole Black Lotus to wipe out the human masters in one fell swoop, in order to speed up the process of darkness unifying the world.
Since it concerns the future of the Nine-Pole Black Lotus, he is naturally very concerned about it. When the dark side arrives, he manifests the Evil Eyes to break the seal.
Unexpectedly, he met Indra and his plan was shattered.
He was unwilling to accept defeat, so he abandoned Evil Eyes at the last moment and used his tremendous suction force to capture all the elite Tiandi in an attempt to transform them.
Every disciple of Tianmen is an unparalleled genius. If he grows up, he will have nearly a hundred powerful subordinates.
By then, let alone breaking the seal, it would be possible to unify the Xuanhuang Realm and become a demon god (ancient evil demon level).
I just didn’t expect that Indra would come so quickly and be so powerful.
“Hahaha, that’s right! This is the power of the ancient evil demon. You can’t contend with it at all!” The Demon Emperor laughed wildly, and the aura on his body rose violently, as if the entire demon cave was under his control.
When Emperor Shitian heard this, his expression became very solemn. He knew that the Demon Emperor was no longer someone he could fight against with his own strength alone.
He has fully activated the power of the ancient evil demon, like the rebirth of the ancient evil demon. His strength has increased a thousand times. In this God Burial Abyss, he is equivalent to the existence of the Heavenly Dao.
But at this moment, a golden light descended from the sky, like the first rays of dawn, tearing apart the darkness shrouding the demon cave.
A tender and warm voice came faintly from the light: "Master, don't panic, Xiaotian is here to help you!"
That is the spirit of the ladder!
After recognizing its master, it has a telepathic connection with Indra and is usually responsible for managing the affairs of the Heavenly Ladder. When it senses his crisis, it immediately rushes to help.
It is actually not correct to say "rush".
It is Indra's magic weapon. No matter how far away, it can reach the destination instantly with almost no time consumption.
Its arrival undoubtedly gave Indra great confidence.
The Ladder to Heaven is a supreme treasure. Apart from saints and systems, nothing in this world can suppress it. Even for saints, it is not easy to suppress it.
With the help of the ladder, he can move forward and backward freely.
One of the functions of the Ladder to Heaven is to connect all the heavens and worlds. With just a thought, he can reach any world instantly. Its ability is even stronger than the Shuttle of All Worlds.
Of course, the two functions are not the same and cannot be compared in this way.
"Xiaotian, lend me some strength!" Emperor Shitian secretly conveyed the message to the spirit of the Heavenly Ladder, regained his spirit, and tightly grasped the Tianque Divine Sword in his hand.
After a moment, he finished accumulating strength and waved his hand violently. Gray light surged towards the Demon Emperor like a torrent, stripping him of his strength layer by layer.
The path of nothingness can turn everything into nothingness.
The Demon King's expression changed slightly when he saw this, but he still refused to give in.
He roared, and the demonic energy in his body burst out, forming a huge dark vortex, which fought against the power of nothingness exerted by Indra.
Indra took the opportunity to rush forward, the Tianque sword in his hand flashing with dazzling light.
He was like a meteor, tearing through the dark vortex and heading straight for the Demon Emperor's heart.
"One sword returns to the abyss, break it for me!" Emperor Shitian roared, gathered the power of nothingness at the tip of the sword, and rushed towards the Demon Emperor fiercely.
