Mighty Lion, I'll Take You On
"Ancestor!" Bear King Hei Feng, Crimson Sun Jiao King, Golden-Winged Great Peng King, and Red-Banded Snake King all rushed over and bowed to the old man.
The old man nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping across the battlefield before finally settling on the direction of Grand Profound Grotto-Heaven. A disdainful smile appeared on his lips, "Luozhen Sect? They're nothing but a bunch of clowns, daring to run wild on the Great Wilderness Wilderness's territory."
His voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.
An invisible pressure enveloped the entire Azure Jiao Marsh, causing all the disciples of the Luozhen Sect to feel difficulty breathing, and those with lower cultivation levels even collapsed to the ground.
"Today, I will personally take action and annihilate your arrogant sect," the old man's voice grew louder, "So that you will know who the true ruler is in this Great Wilderness!"
Li Yunjing looked at the old man, a strong fighting spirit appearing in his eyes.
He was already at the Late Spirit Transformation, but his actual combat strength was comparable to that of a cultivator at the Early Dao Union.
The old man before them was only at the Early Return to the Origin, but his strength was equivalent to that of a cultivator at the Early Dao Union.
Li Yunjing was eager to see what the outcome would be if he fought him.
"Master, inform them it's time to close the net. I'll deal with this humanoid old demon myself."
Leaving behind a single sentence, Li Yunjing vanished from the Luozhen Grand Hall.
Nangong Chengyu was startled and didn't even have time to offer any advice.
He knew Li Yunjing had reached the Late Spirit Transformation, but could he really win against a demon king at the Return to Origin Realm?
At this moment, Li Yunjing had already left the Grotto-Heaven and arrived at the center of the battlefield.
The old demon king and the four demon kings immediately looked over.
When the Bear King Hei Feng saw that the human was in the Late Spirit Transformation, he immediately looked disdainful.
"A mere human brat in the Late Spirit Transformation stage dares to show his face? He's courting death!"
The next moment, the Bear King Hei Feng swung his spiked club and smashed it down hard on Li Yunjing.
The scene was incredibly powerful; the sound of the spiked clubs whistling through the air made the earth tremble.
Li Yunjing remained expressionless, silently performing incantations.
"Taiyi Qingwei is the talisman of the Yuan Dynasty."
Li Yunjing held his right hand in front of his chest, and with a light stroke of his fingertips, a mysterious rune appeared out of thin air. The rune was composed of pure light, and the strokes were accompanied by faint sounds of thunder.
"Lei Lai!"
The two words were uttered casually.
A thin, silvery bolt of lightning appeared silently from the void and struck the Bear King Hei Feng precisely between the eyebrows.
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
The bear king's massive body froze in mid-air, its fierce red eyes instantly losing their luster.
Its violent Demon Power receded like a tide, and its hard, iron-like black fur began to dry and become brittle.
Thump...
The bear king, weighing tens of thousands of kilograms, crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
There was only a pinhead-sized scorch mark between its eyebrows. The Qingwei Divine Lightning had pierced through its skull, precisely shattering its Demon Core that it had cultivated for thousands of years, without even a trace of excess power leaking out.
The surrounding flowers, plants and trees were intact, and not even a fallen leaf at Su Chen's feet was disturbed.
This scene shocked the three demon kings, including the Crimson Sun Jiao King, especially the Crimson Sun Jiao King.
He had invited the Bear King Hei Feng, so he was naturally aware of the Bear King Hei Feng's strength.
Although the Bear King Hei Feng was only at the Spirit Concentration Realm Perfection, his brute strength and thick skin made him incredibly powerful. Even a great demon at the Early Return to Origin Realm would have to put in a lot of effort to deal with him.
But the human boy killed the Bear King Hei Feng with a single blow, and fear immediately appeared in the eyes of the Crimson Sun Jiao King.
As a dragon-type Demon Beast with dragon blood, he has an extremely keen sense of danger.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have survived until now, nor would he have become the Demon King.
Right now, he feels like he's facing a major disaster, which makes him want to back out.
But when the old demon king saw the Bear King Hei Feng killed in an instant, he immediately flew into a rage.
"You human brat, killing my descendant right before my eyes! You deserve to die!"
The old demon king slammed out his right hand.
Boom!
A massive fiery claw covered in crimson-gold scales appeared out of thin air, carrying the power to tear through the void, and slashed down towards Li Yunjing's head.
Wherever the claw marks passed, the space itself was burned and distorted, leaving behind streaks of pitch-black cracks.
Li Yunjing dared not be negligent. He activated the Supreme Unity Pure Subtlety Scripture full power, and a layer of pale golden Daoist light instantly enveloped his entire body.
At the same time, the Nine True Magnetic Light Sword transformed into a streak of azure light, meeting the fiery claw mark head-on.
Clang!
The clang of metal against metal was deafening. The Nine True Magnetic Light Sword was slammed away by the fiery claw mark, and Li Yunjing was also struck hard, flying hundreds of feet backward and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The light shield of the Supreme Unity Pure Subtlety Scripture shook violently, and its surface was covered with fine cracks.
"Is this the power of the Dao Integration Realm?" Li Yunjing wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his gaze growing increasingly solemn.
He had used seventy percent of his Law Power in that attack, yet he was still easily injured.
The old demon king sneered, and in a flash, he appeared in front of Li Yunjing.
At the same time, he also revealed his true form.
The old demon king's true form was a blazing lion, with a mane around its neck made entirely of flames, and its whole body was blood red.
Its speed was unbelievable, completely unlike that of a massive Demon Beast.
With another swipe of its claw, this time the flames on the claw mark burned even more fiercely, showing a faint tendency to transform into the shape of a phoenix.
Li Yunjing hurriedly used the movement Movement Method from the Transcendence and Ascension to Immortality Instruction, transforming his figure into a streak of light and narrowly dodging the fatal blow.
But the fiery claw mark grazed his arm, instantly burning his sleeve to ashes and leaving a deep, bone-revealing burn on his arm.
"Hide? How long can you hide?" The old demon king pressed forward relentlessly, his claws flashing like lightning, countless fiery claw marks raining down on Li Yunjing.
In an instant, the entire sky was filled with flames.
Li Yunjing could only dodge and parry, completely finding himself in a passive and defensive situation.
Although the Nine True Magnetic Light Sword was sharp, the Lion King's body was comparable to Spirit Treasure. When the Magnetic Light Sword struck its scales, it could only leave shallow white marks.
"This won't do; we must find out more about it," Li Yunjing thought to himself.
While fending off the lion king's attacks, he circulated the Supreme Unity Pure Subtlety Scripture, carefully observing the lion king's every move.
He discovered that although the Lion King was incredibly strong and fast, its attack methods were quite limited, mostly relying on direct attacks using its physical body and flames. Moreover, before each powerful attack, the tuft of golden fur on its chest would glow slightly, which should be where its Demon Core was located.
"Found it!" A glint of light flashed in Li Yunjing's eyes.
Just then, the Lion King suddenly opened its blood-red maw and spewed out a beam of fire dozens of feet thick.
This is its innate Divine Ability, the Heaven-Burning Blaze, which is several times more powerful than the previous claw marks.
Li Yunjing stopped dodging. He took a deep breath and poured all the remaining Law Power in his body into the Nine True Magnetic Light Sword.
"Seven Slaughters Heaven-Slaying Dao Sword Book, First Form: Shatter Illusions!"
With a low shout, the Nine True Magnetic Light Sword burst forth with a dazzling azure light, and an incomparably sharp Sword Intent soared into the sky.
This Sword Intent was cold and ruthless, as if it wanted to sever all evil in the world.
The dark blue sword light collided violently with the crimson pillar of flame.
Rumble!
A deafening explosion rang out, and the earth trembled violently...
