The Demon God Emperor Retreats in Defeat

"Destruction Thunder Seal - Eight Desolations Suppression!" Yu Yuanchen pointed his fingers like a sword, slashing through the void. A Purple-Gold seal formed from pure Thunder Divine Power appeared out of thin air, with Thunder Dragon coiling on it, carrying the supreme will to suppress all evil and stabilize the universe, pressing down on the Demon God Emperor! Even space itself was distorted and collapsed under the pressure!

"Demon Dragon Emperor Slash - Nine Heavens Cleaving!" A cold light flashed in the eyes of Demon God Emperor Feng Huan, and the demon Demon Sword in his hand erupted with a dark red sword light that tore through the sky. Within the sword light, it seemed as if thousands of demon dragons roared, defying the heavens and fiercely slashing towards the Thunder Seal!

Boom--!!!

The purple-gold divine light and the dark red Demonic Energy collided violently like two Destruction tides. The blinding light instantly illuminated the dim world, and the terrifying energy shockwave spread out in a spherical shape, flattening the already ruined mountain range below by tens of meters.

If Gu Yuena and her companions hadn't secretly set up a barrier to prevent most of the energy from escaping, the area within a thousand miles would probably have been reduced to scorched earth!

Yu Yuanchen swayed slightly, taking several steps back, his body crackling with lightning to dissipate the force of the impact. He frowned slightly, sensing the flow of Divine Power within his body and the subtle suppression from the laws of heaven and earth.

"As expected, having just entered the God Level, it will take time to adapt to the Plane Law. Moreover, this world has a subtle repulsive force against those who did not become gods from outside the region. Although it is not strong, it still prevents me from fully utilizing my strength, allowing me to use only about 80% of it."

He thought to himself, "This Demon God Emperor has a solid foundation, pure Demon Essence, and rich combat experience. What's even more troublesome is that pillar..."

His gaze swept over the faint, illusory image of the Heaven-Defying Heaven-Defying Dragon Pillar behind the Demon God Emperor. That Super Divine Artifact could greatly amplify the Demon God Emperor's strength and recovery speed, and could also continuously draw upon the Heaven and Earth Origin Qi and earth to transform it into Demonic Energy, making the Demon God Emperor almost invincible.

If it weren't for his higher-level Divine Essence essence and more refined application of laws, he would probably have already fallen into a disadvantageous position.

"Hmph! Outsider! Your power is indeed strange and strong, but to think you can defeat me in this realm is wishful thinking!" Demon God Emperor Feng Huan steadied himself, and several scorch marks appeared on his Demon Armor, but they instantly healed under the nourishment of Demonic Energy.

His eyes were cold, tinged with a hint of anger at being provoked. He had thought that what had descended upon this place was just an interesting insect, but he hadn't expected it to be so troublesome! Especially the divine Divine Power that seemed to surpass even magic, which made him quite wary.

"Whether it's wishful thinking or not, we'll only know after we try." Yu Yuanchen's tone was calm, but his fighting spirit grew even stronger. Fighting to the death against a powerhouse of the same level was the best way to consolidate his realm and adapt to his strength! "Take another move from me, Thunder God Tribulation - Azure Dragon Break!"

He brandished the gun with both hands, and the Thunder Divine Power around him gathered wildly, transforming into a thousand-meter-long, lifelike, Purple-Gold Lightning dragon with clearly visible scales.

The azure dragon roared to the sky, its Dragon Roar resounding through the heavens, carrying the supreme Divine Might to judge all spirits and annihilate all laws, and bared its fangs and claws as it pounced on the Demon God Emperor!

This attack used 80% of his current strength!

"Well done! Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon - Heaven Swallowing Earth Devouring!" Sensing the threat of this attack, the Demon God Emperor dared not be careless. He roared, and the Heaven-Defying Dragon Pillar behind him unleashed its power, with endless Demonic Energy surging into his body. He raised his Demon Sword high, and an even larger, more condensed, Dark Demon Dragon Sword Qi that seemed capable of devouring light soared into the sky, colliding fiercely with the Thunderous Azure Dragon!

Rumble--!!!

This collision was even more terrifying than before! It was as if a huge rift had been torn open in the sky, revealing the pitch-black void behind it.

A Destruction energy storm raged wildly, even causing the barrier set up by Gu Yuena and her companions to tremble violently, its light flickering erratically!

In the distance, Yang Zhou and his group of five were already watching with bated breath, their hearts pounding and cold sweat pouring down their backs. This level of combat was completely beyond their comprehension! Every strike contained earth-shattering power; if it were to land on Imperial Dragon Pass, the entire fortress would probably be instantly reduced to ashes!

"That... divine being... seems to have a slight advantage? But with the Demon God Emperor's pillar providing support, if the battle drags on..." The chief of the Assassin Temple said in a hoarse voice.

"Regardless, this person's fight against the Demon God Emperor makes him a friend of our Human Race! Perhaps we can find a way to make contact!" A glimmer of hope shone in Yang Zhou's eyes. Perhaps, Human Race had truly found a Life Force of hope!

Meteor Mountain Range, above the sinkhole.

The Purple-Gold lightning and the dark purple demonic flames collided fiercely for the last time, unleashing a terrifying energy storm powerful enough to tear apart the void.

At the eye of the storm, two figures shot out like meteors, each leaving a trail hundreds of meters long in the air before barely managing to steady themselves.

Yu Yuanchen stood holding his spear, his body crackling with lightning, though the spear itself was somewhat dim. His aura was a little disordered, and his face was slightly pale, but his eyes remained sharp as lightning, and his fighting spirit was high.

Although the Thunder Dragon Spear in his hand had been tempered by the tribulation of Godhood Tribulation and nurtured by his own Divine Essence, it had already been upgraded to a true Level 3 Divine Artifact. The Thunder Dragon patterns on the spear body were becoming clearer, exuding a terrifying aura of Destruction. However, continuously clashing with the Super Divine Artifact, the Heaven-Defying Dragon Pillar, was still a considerable burden for him.

On the other side, Demon God Emperor Feng Huan was in a more disheveled state. Several charred cracks appeared on his magnificent dark purple Demon Armor, a trickle of dark red blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and the surging Demonic Energy around him had dimmed considerably. He stared intently at Yu Yuanchen, his eyes filled with shock, anger, and a hint of barely concealed apprehension.

The Heaven-Defying Dragon Pillar slowly rotated behind him, still radiating immense demonic power, but a few faint scorch marks could be seen on its surface, indicating that it had been somewhat affected by the intense clash just now.

This supreme Demon Race Supreme Sacred Artifact is indeed powerful, but it is not without damage when faced with the full power of a true Spirit-level Expert wielding a divine weapon.

"Outsider, state your name! Who are you? Where do you come from? Why are you an enemy of my Demon Race?" Demon God Emperor Feng Huan stared intently at Yu Yuanchen and asked in a deep voice. He was filled with doubt and suspicion; such a powerful figure could not possibly appear out of thin air.

Yu Yuanchen stood with his hands behind his back, the lightning around him gradually receding, his aura becoming unfathomable once more. He glanced at the Demon God Emperor, then at Yang Zhou and the others who were hiding in the distance, a meaningful smile curving his lips.

"My name is Yu Yuanchen. As for why I am your enemy..."

He paused, his gaze sweeping across the ravaged land below, tainted by Demonic Energy, his voice calm yet carrying an undeniable power:

"It seems you struck first, weren't you? Were you trying to take advantage of my recent breakthrough and leave me unprepared?"

"Outsider... Yu Yuanchen!" The Demon God Emperor's voice was hoarse, filled with intense killing intent. "I admit, I underestimated you!"

Feng Huan utterly shocked. The guy in front of him, who had just broken through, was ridiculously strong. Not only was his Divine Power pure and vast, but his control over the Thunder Law was also superb, and his combat skills were extremely shrewd.

In the previous exchange, he had almost used the power of the Demon Dragon Pillar's Origin Power, yet it was still broken by the opponent's Destruction Thunder Seal, which contained supreme suppressive will, combined with the Dragon Spear Spear's thrust, causing him to suffer a hidden loss!

"Hmph! If it weren't for the laws of the Saint Demon Continent suppressing me, how could I, the Emperor, allow you to be so arrogant!" The Demon God Emperor snorted coldly, trying to regain his temper.

"Suppression?" Yu Yuanchen's lips curled into a meaningful smile. "Perhaps. But even without suppression, you are no match for me." The Demon God Emperor seemed to have forgotten that he too was subject to suppression.

His gaze swept over the Heaven-Defying Dragon Pillar behind the Demon God Emperor, then seemingly casually glanced at the hidden aura in the distant void (the location of Gu Yuena and her companions), and he understood. This battle should end.

If he continues fighting, he might be able to gradually expand his advantage with his superior skills and understanding of power, but killing the Demon God Emperor, who is protected by Super Divine Artifact and is determined to escape, would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Moreover... he sensed that Gu Yuena Di Tian didn't seem to have any murderous intent towards this Demon God Emperor, who also belonged to the Dragon Clan; on the contrary, they seemed to be probing him. Forcibly keeping him might not be a wise move.

Just as the atmosphere was tense, and it seemed that another great battle was about to break out at any moment, two powerful Demonic Energy were rapidly approaching from the distant horizon! One aura was yin and mysterious, carrying the power of moonlight that could bewitch the mind; the other aura was mysterious and profound, filled with the power of the vast stars.

The Moon Demon God Agares! The Star Demon God Vassago! The second and third strongest among the Seventy-Two Pillar Demon Gods of the Demon Race, sensing the intense fluctuations in the Demon Empress's aura, came to his aid!

The Demon God Emperor naturally sensed the arrival of his subordinates, which calmed him down somewhat, but the anger on his face also subsided. Being forced to the point of needing his subordinates to help him by an unknown "outsider" was an utter humiliation for him, but he also developed a deep sense of apprehension towards Yu Yuanchen.

"Yu Yuanchen! I will remember what happened today!" The Demon God Emperor suppressed his surging Blood Essence, and the illusory image of the Heaven-Defying Dragon Pillar behind him slowly receded. He said coldly, "This realm is ultimately the territory of my Demon Race Clan! You outsiders had better behave yourselves! If you dare to interfere in the affairs between my clan and humans, don't blame me for using the full power of my clan to crush you into dust!"

After uttering a harsh threat, the Demon God Emperor didn't linger. His figure transformed into a dark purple stream of light, merging with the arriving Moon Demon God and Star Demon God. In an instant, they tore through space and vanished. He needed to return as soon as possible to heal his injuries and reassess the variables brought about by this suddenly appearing "Foreign God."

Yu Yuanchen did not stop them, but simply watched them leave quietly. Only when the Demon Race aura completely disappeared did he slowly put away the Thunder Dragon Spear. His divine light was restrained, but the Divine Might that transcended the mortal realm was still awe-inspiring.

He turned around, his gaze seemingly piercing through the void, landing on Yang Zhou and his four companions who were hiding their presence in the distance, already dumbfounded.

Rewinding slightly to four days prior, Yu Yuanchen had just passed the Godhood Tribulation and was consolidating his realm and repairing his injuries atop Lone Peak peak.

The Godhood Tribulation lasted for three whole days, its power vast, almost leveling the Core Zone Meteor Mountain Range. It was on the evening of the third day, when the Tribulation Clouds were about to dissipate and Yu Yuanchen's aura was at its weakest (relatively speaking), that Demon God Emperor Feng Huan crossed endless space and arrived first.

He was initially startled by the earth-shattering Divine Ascension Phenomenon, mistaking it for the birth of a rare treasure or the arrival of a powerful enemy, and harbored thoughts of seizing or eliminating it.

However, when he tore through space and descended above this devastated mountain range, he saw a powerful stranger who had just undergone a tribulation of Thunder Tribulation, his body radiating divine light and rapidly recovering.

"A newly promoted God Level?" A multitude of thoughts flashed through the Demon God Emperor's mind, and his vigilance surged. The appearance of an unfamiliar Spirit-level Expert on his territory was an absolute catastrophic event!

Therefore, after he appeared, his tone was naturally impolite, carrying the arrogance and scrutiny unique to the Demon Race King, directly questioning Yu Yuanchen's origins and purpose, his words filled with a condescending tone.

Having just completed his Life Leap and experienced a surge in strength, and looking for a testing ground, Yu Yuanchen, sensing the Demon God Emperor's undisguised hostility and powerful aura, would certainly not back down.

Moreover, through his previous soul-searching and sensing, Yu Yuanchen had already determined that the Demon Race of this realm seemed to have some connection with the Demon Plane that invaded Douluo, and he already harbored ill will towards them. The other party's hostile attitude gave him a perfect reason to take action.

Thus, a sudden battle of God Level erupted. Yu Yuanchen used telepathy to stop Gu Yuena and the other three who wanted to help, as he wanted to fight the strongest in this world alone and prove himself!

At this moment, the great battle ended, and the Demon God Emperor retreated.

Yu Yuanchen's figure flashed, and he appeared where Gu Yuena, Qian Daoliu, Tang Chen, Di Tian were hiding.

"Are you alright?" Qian Daoliu and the others stepped forward and asked with concern. They had witnessed the danger of the battle just now.

"It's alright, we've made some progress." Yu Yuanchen smiled slightly, reassuring everyone.

"Once this matter is settled, let's leave this place," Yu Yuanchen said. This place has been through a series of battles, and the energy here is disordered and the space is fragile, so it is not a place to stay for long.

However, just as they were about to leave, Yu Yuanchen turned his gaze to the distance again and said loudly, "Friends in the distance, you've been watching for so long, shouldn't you show yourselves and make an appearance?"

The voice was calm, yet it clearly reached the ears of Yang Zhou and his four companions who were hiding in the distance.

Yang Zhou and the others were shocked, their faces showing horror. They thought their concealment skills were extremely high, and with the aura of the God Seal Throne concealing them, they were still discovered by the other party. No wonder he was Spirit-level Expert.

The five exchanged glances, all seeing the shock and helplessness in each other's eyes. Finally, Yang Zhou took a deep breath, signaled everyone to dispel their concealment, and, steeling himself, respectfully flew towards Yu Yuanchen and the others.

Whether it's a blessing or a curse, we must face it. This "Foreign God," capable of fighting the Demon God Emperor to a standstill, or even gaining a slight advantage, might... be humanity's new hope? Or... an even greater catastrophe?
