Battles Within and Without (Continued)

The Moon Devil King shook his arms, his muscles bulging, and his palms suddenly erupted with fierce and domineering power. Amidst the faint roar of dragons and elephants, he pushed out his palm force like waves, instantly turning Liu Qingqing, who was wrapped around his legs, into a shower of blood droplets.

"Hmm, isn't this a move from the Military School arts manual 'Tyrant Fist'?"

Si Ming was puzzled, but now was not the right time to pursue the matter, so he could only keep it to himself and continue pressing the issue.

The Moon Devil King frantically dodged and used illusions to confuse Si Ming's judgment, causing his attacks to always miss by a hair's breadth. His illusions could mislead spiritual consciousness, and could not be completely prevented by simply closing one's eyes.

Just as the Son of the Dragon Devil was about to step forward to help, a violent tremor suddenly came from all around. The energy surged like rolling thunder, and the muffled explosions were like the howling of a hurricane, making everyone present's ears hurt.

The feeling was like two trains colliding head-on. Luckily, everyone present was a master; otherwise, an ordinary person would have been thrown to the ground by the shock. In fact, Wan Ziling, who had lost all strength, lay directly on the ground and was only pulled back by Liu Qingqing, who had just reassembled herself, so that she was not thrown out.

"What happened? It couldn't have collided with a mountain, could it be..."

An ominous thought surfaced in the Son of the Dragon Devil's mind. He couldn't care less about saving the Moon Devil King now. He pressed his brow and issued a command. A huge Guanzi, which looked a bit like intestines, burst out of the Corpse Kun's stomach wall and swallowed him.

A moment later, the Son of the Dragon Devil arrived outside the Corpse Kun through a special passage and discovered that what was blocking the Corpse Kun was a sheet of white paper Qianzhang long.

"The Law Treasure 'Clear-Heart Square Floss'? Duanmu Die, I don't believe you truly dare to disregard the entanglements of cause and effect and attack me in the Barbarian Continent!"

In the night sky, a graceful figure floated, the bright moonlight draped over her like a silver veil, making her appear exceptionally sacred and solemn—it was Duanmu Die.

A smile played on her lips as she said, "You're right, I certainly wouldn't dare to make a move here, but you're not the only one who would think of using undead creatures to evade karma. Have you forgotten what the Six Paths Sect's guardian beast is?"

A flicker of astonishment crossed the Son of the Dragon Devil's face. "Could it be...?"

A deep roar interrupted the Son of the Dragon Devil's words, and a hornless dragon head fiercely charged out of the darkness, biting down on the Void Corpse Kun.

Although it had long since lost the ability to feel pain, the Void Corpse Kun, retaining the last vestige of its sentience, instinctively sensed danger. Its massive body trembled violently, causing the void to vibrate and severely distort and deform the surrounding space, creating an overlapping effect that firmly imprisoned the enemy. Then, it opened its jaws wide and bit back, like a whale swallowing a shark, seizing the entire hornless dragon's head. With a sudden burst of force from its upper and lower jaws, it actually bit off the opponent's brain segment!

However, upon witnessing this scene, the Son of the Dragon Devil showed no joy. Instead, he hastily activated the Beast Law Seals, urging the Void Corpse Kun to leave quickly.

Duanmu Die chuckled lightly, "Too slow."

The next moment, eight hornless dragon heads emerged from the darkness, biting at the Void Corpse Kun from different directions. Their densely packed sharp teeth pierced the Corpse Kun's body like harpoons, locking it firmly in place.

Seeing this, the Son of the Dragon Devil no longer cared about the consequences of being implicated in karma. He activated his Devil Essence, attempting to forcefully break free from the restraints. His boundless Devil Qi condensed into a pillar that pierced the clouds. At this moment, his cultivation level was more than ten times stronger than when he was inside the Corpse Kun's belly.

However, before the Son of the Dragon Devil could make a move, a Yin-Yang Annihilation Cannon shot through the air, forcing him to interrupt and dodge. Turning his head, he saw that the attacker was none other than the hornless dragon head whose head had been bitten off by the Void Corpse Kun. The dragon head had grown back in just a few breaths.

"Nether Jiuying!"

In mythology, the Jiuying Serpent advances by fusing with the power of the Youming and mastering the Dao of Yin and Yang, greatly enhancing its abilities in all aspects. Its already extraordinary regenerative ability is further amplified to the point that it can revive even if only a piece of flesh remains.

The Son of the Dragon Devil was both shocked and frightened. He never expected that the other party would actually bring out the guardian beasts of the Six Paths Sect. Although he had guessed before that Duanmu Die held a high position in the Six Paths Sect and was definitely not an ordinary disciple, but was likely a son of a high-ranking official, the extent of the other party's influence still exceeded his expectations.

For some major sects, the status of the guardian beasts is no less than that of the Supreme Elders. In addition, their duty is to guard the mountain gate. Asking them to temporarily leave their posts is no less than asking the sect leader to go out and help.

Let alone the fact that the Son of the Dragon Devil controls a dead Kun, even a living Kunpeng would avoid such a peerless ferocious beast.

Who exactly are you?

Duanmu Die placed her hands on her waist, gave a graceful bow, and said, "As you can see, she is merely a gentle and virtuous young lady from a secluded family."

"Your companions abandoned you; it seems Devil Race don't value friendship much."

Si Ming adjusted the Divine Sight Illusory Observation Art again, this time to enhance speed, and launched continuous attacks around the Moon Devil King. Although he was only one person, it was as if four people were attacking at the same time, surrounding the Moon Devil King and leaving him no chance to escape.

He floated up like a feather, lightly riding the wind. He changed his previous fierce and domineering fist style, and instead struck out with his palms in a seemingly slow but actually fast manner. The palm force was like flowing water, slowly rippling and covering the opponent wave after wave, trapping him in it, like a spider spinning silk to entwine and surround him, thickening the encirclement with each layer.

The Moon Devil King suddenly felt as if he were in the deep sea, surrounded by enormous resistance from all sides. Even taking a single step was extremely difficult. When he threw a punch, before it even touched his enemy, seven or eight tenths of its fierce and unparalleled force was dissipated. Even if it hit Si Ming, it would only cause him no pain or itch.

Knowing that a prolonged battle would inevitably lead to defeat, the Moon Devil King shifted his gaze, abruptly retreated, and with a slight wave of his right hand, a dazzling golden light, like a long rainbow, pierced through the sky. The air seemed unable to withstand its sharpness, emitting a piercing and ear-piercing sound.

From ten feet to a foot, from a foot to an inch, in the blink of an eye, the golden light was upon him. Before Si Ming could even observe what it was, he twisted his waist and swayed his body, his movements lithe and agile, and gently dodged it.

But all of this was within the Moon Devil King's expectations. His left hand, hidden behind his back, changed hand Law Seals and activated illusion magic again, confusing Si Ming's consciousness and making him think that the golden light was a one-way hidden weapon like an arrow. At the same time, it also blinded the martial artist's intuition, making it impossible for him to be alert for a short time.

In reality, after flying several feet, the golden light spun like a boomerang, then flew back as fast as lightning, slashing straight at Si Ming's lower back.

"A boring trick."

Just as the attack was about to strike, Si Ming seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He flicked his sleeves, and his tall and slender figure soared into the air. He was as graceful as a Jinghong swan and as nimble as a swimming dragon. He lightly touched the rapidly passing golden light with his toes, as if dancing in the air and using the force to take off. After a somersault, he brought down a palm from above.

"Dragon-Elephant Stomp!"

Originally, it was a move propelled by both feet, but Si Ming had used it many times and knew it by heart. He was not bound by the form. A surge of energy rushed out from his palms, like a flood that had been building up and burst through the dam, surging and turbulent with extremely fierce power.

"The Heavenly Devil Destroys the Dao, Reverse Heaven and Earth!"

The Moon Devil King remained calm despite his shock. He channeled all his Devil Qi, striking out with both palms into the air, his power shifting and inverting as if he possessed the ability to overturn heaven and earth.

But just as the two were about to make contact, a beam of red light shot out from Si Ming's chest and slammed into the Moon Devil King. Although Si Ming was shattered into pieces, he successfully caused the Moon Devil King's aura to fluctuate.

Seizing this fleeting opening, Si Ming adjusted his Divine Sight Illusory Observation Art, changing it to one that doubled his power. At the same time, he enveloped his body in golden light and entered a state of Solar Prominence Eruption.

The eighteenfold divine power crashed down, shattering the heavens and earth, leaving no chance for anything else to happen!

With a "crack," the Moon Devil King's arms shattered, but Si Ming's palm strike continued unabated, pounding into the Moon Devil King's chest. The powerful force surged in, and with another "crack," all of his ribs broke.

The Moon Devil King cried out in pain, spitting out blood as his body was slammed into the ground, green sap splattering everywhere. He was severely injured.

"I've already said, those who use illusion magic are all low-class guys. You guys are only good at scheming."

Si Ming gracefully descended from the sky, first gathering his breath, then exhaling a bloody internal energy. The previous fight had caused him some internal injuries, but given his constitution, he would recover quickly.

In terms of strength, the Moon Devil King was only slightly inferior to the Beast King Anye and even surpassed Li Ban by three points. However, his luck was terrible. He encountered Si Ming, who completely overwhelmed him in terms of power, and was suppressed in all aspects. Furthermore, his other specialty, illusion magic, was seen through by Liu Qingqing, who possessed the Blood Spirit Body.
