Chapter 736 Don’t Ask About the Return
The Kaitian evil spirit split the enemy into two. Li Yuan and Taibai Jinxing fought back to back, and they were covered in blood, with even bloodstains on their faces.
After settling the little Qilin, Li Yuan returned and fought together with Taibai Jinxing, and they have been fighting for three or four days in a row.
The Demon Emperor's methods are terrifying, and the fearless and top-notch powerful demons under his command also pose a huge threat to the two.
The two fought bloody battles and killed several top demons without retreating a single step. However, after fighting for so long, they were still at a disadvantage and were suppressed by the Demon Emperor.
Taibai Jinxing's golden robe turned red, with blood stains of both his enemies and his own blood on his body. The same was true for Li Yuan, who was killing to the point of madness.
Especially Li Yuan, he had a bad feeling in his heart, as if someone important was leaving...
He really wanted to escape from this battlefield and travel around the human world to check the situation, but the Demon Emperor was not an easy person to deal with. The Taoist Master used various means to keep the two of them trapped here.
However, after several days of bloody fighting, the Demon Emperor's patience was finally exhausted.
The main thing is that it can’t hold on any longer.
The resurrection of the Demon Emperor was not perfect. After several days of continuous fighting, its energy was severely depleted. Only after it truly returned to the Dao Zun realm could it be possible to solve these hidden dangers. At that time, it would also be the complete return of the ancient Demon Emperor.
He originally wanted to kill Li Yuan and Taibai Jinxing by force, but both of them were very able to withstand pressure; Li Yuan protected himself with three swords, his combat power was terrifying, there was a five-colored vortex in his body, his immortal power and essence were almost endless, as long as there was any floating energy, he could absorb and transform it.
When the immortal power is really exhausted, there is still the omnipotent Xuan Qi replacement cycle. By the time the Xuan Qi is exhausted, the immortal power has been restored to almost nothing...
If all else fails, Fuxuan Sword will be used again, and the battle will resume at full strength...
Not to mention Taibai Jinxing, who bears the name Taibai and is the right-hand man of the Emperor of Heaven, a powerful official in the Heavenly Court, and has extremely strong combat power.
With the mysterious support of the luck of heaven behind him, he will basically not be exhausted as long as he does not keep using his great supernatural powers.
After a fierce fight, the two men were in a miserable state and covered with wounds, but it was the Demon Emperor who lost several top powerful men.
However, the Demon Emperor has already reaped some rewards. The strange creatures have conquered several innate small secret realms as agreed, and there is enough energy in them for the Demon Emperor to devour.
As for whether this would offend the Xiantian Immortal Emperor, the Demon Emperor didn't care about it for the time being. The only priority at the moment was its recovery.
"That kid named Li Yuan, you are being entangled here by this emperor. Do you know that your relatives and friends are being slaughtered?"
The Demon Emperor sneered, and while absorbing the remaining energy of the dead demons, he secretly began to prepare for evacuation.
Li Yuan was almost covered in blood. His fists and fingers trembled slightly. He raised the sword silently, and the blood-stained tip of the sword pointed directly at the Demon Emperor.
Taibai Jinxing also glanced at Li Yuan and seemed a little taciturn, until he looked at the Demon Emperor and cast an angry look.
"The Demon Emperor should have some pride, but why did he fall into collusion with the evil?"
Taibai Jinxing spoke in a deep voice.
The Demon Emperor led his people to slowly retreat, still with an evil smile on his face. He did not respond to Taibai Jinxing, but just looked at Li Yuan and sarcastically said:
"In this chaotic world, even I am only one of the people struggling to survive. As a top-level powerful being like you, how many disasters can you prevent, and how many people can you protect?"
"Benevolence, morality, order, peace... Boy, you have tied shackles on the people you care about with your own hands. When they die one by one in torture, do you think they will hate you in their hearts?"
"Those who haven't crossed to the other side yet still want to help these weak beings cross? It's just a joke, hahahaha..."
The Demon Emperor left with a grim smile, consuming the essence and blood of the Taoist Master and displaying his bizarre and unpredictable magical powers, completely blocking the possibility of the two men chasing him.
The vicious sword shook the air and instantly chopped down the place where the Demon Emperor had just been, breaking the aftermath of the great magical power, but there was no trace of the Demon Emperor left.
Li Yuan had a gloomy face, looking cold.
Taibai Jinxing was actually also seriously injured, but he had been holding on for the entire time. Now he took a few deep breaths to relieve the pain, and patted Li Yuan's shoulder with his blood-stained hand.
"The calamity has no fixed pattern, and disasters are surging. You call on your relatives and friends to protect the human world, and you will naturally be retaliated by the evil ones... If you are reluctant, gather them together and protect them, and send them out of the three realms, there may be a chance to avoid it."
Li Yuan slowly closed his eyes, and his body was quickly repairing the damage.
He was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "After a hundred years of growth, the human world has gained the initial strength and courage to fight against the catastrophe, but they still need to be tempered. The catastrophe of life and death is the best tempering."
"If humans want to protect themselves, they have to be strong. Protecting others is not just my decision, but everyone's choice."
"No matter the outcome of this trip, it's hard to see the way back."
"I'm Li Yuan, I'm An Shan... no regrets."
Although he had a premonition, the words of the Demon Emperor still made Li Yuan feel uneasy. After recovering from his injuries, he thanked Taibai Jinxing for coming down to earth to rescue him, and then rushed back to the human world from the Canghai Realm with his remaining injuries.
Taibai Jinxing no longer had the energy to stay with Li Yuan. The battle in the sky had been going on. In the past few days, Taibai even felt the death of many old friends. He had to rush to the battlefield in the sky to provide support.
......
Li Yuan returned to Linglong River, but found that the river was filled with corpses and the shore was littered with corpses.
He sensed carefully, but could not find any trace of the Linglong River God.
In a few days, Linglong River seemed to have encountered a great disaster and almost turned into a dead place.
In the distance, there are still some traces of living mortals, but in this river, the air of death is spreading, and there is no trace of immortal light and spiritual charm.
It seems that the enemy no longer cares about the lives of these scattered mortals. They are destroying all living beings that may pose a threat now or in the future.
In other words, compared to weak mortals, practitioners and enlightened beings are more likely to become targets. The more powerful the life, the more energy it provides...
Looking at the dead silent Linglong River, Li Yuan stood in the air, using all his strength, exerting the full power of the Fuxuan Sword, forcibly going back part of time and space to watch the scenes of the past.
This was also the first time that Li Yuan actively used the special ability of the Fuxuan Sword.
The flashback screen opened, and Li Yuan was under great consumption every second, but he gritted his teeth and held on, constantly flipping through it.
At least we need to see who did all this.
The scenes of the past few days flashed by rapidly. When Li Yuan saw the changes in Linglong River, the Linglong River God rushed into the darkness...seeing the subsequent scenes, his body couldn't help but shake a little.
Li Yuan closed his eyes tightly, sighed after a long time, and looked towards the lowest reaches of Linglong River.
In the lower reaches of the river, under the water, there is a trace of the origin of life that has never been extinguished. It is the last trace left by Linglong.
Regardless of whether this trace could provide hope for reviving the Linglong River God, Li Yuan carefully collected it.
If there is a glimmer of hope, he will give up everything he has to revive this old friend.
Although, that is extremely slim...
Through retrospection, Li Yuan learned that before the Linglong River God was in trouble, he had already hidden the seriously injured and unconscious Yunxia Fairy God in the gap between the two worlds at the source of the river, which connected the human world and the underworld, and there was a warming magic circle left by Lao Zhang, which was enough to isolate all exploration. It also became the key to the preservation of Yunxia Fairy God after the Linglong River was in disaster.
After trying his best to search for life in Linglong River, Li Yuan found that the enemy was extremely ruthless and did not leave any survivors. Recalling the scene when Lao Ao and other creatures tried their best to save Linglong River, Li Yuan sighed silently.
The source of Linglong River, Linchuan, has a rugged terrain. Although it is quite famous, there are few living creatures on the land, which is not a problem.
After taking the seriously injured and unconscious Yunxia Immortal God away from the gap between the two worlds, Li Yuan anxiously headed towards another place.
That direction was the southwest of the human world, and he felt extremely uneasy...
