Near True Immortal-Level Combat Power, the Mastermind Behind the Scenes

"Impossible!

You're merely Dao Integration Realm (Dao Body Realm) cultivator, how could you be so powerful?

It can even blast away Immortal Artifact!

Du Yi forcefully stabilized the violently trembling Nine Dragons Furnace, his eyes surging with a mixture of shock and anger, and he gritted his teeth and roared:

"I refuse to believe you can unleash an attack of that power again! Today I'll let you taste the might of Immortal Artifact."

Before he finished speaking, he and the remaining experts of the Demonic Flame Sect formed an array and fully activated the Nine Dragons Furnace.

In an instant, countless demonic flames surged forth like magma, and the raging sea of fire, carrying the terrifying power to scorch the heavens and boil the seas, swept over Liu Yi like a tidal wave.

Liu Yi remained calm, not moving an inch in the face of the sweeping demonic flames.

He slowly raised his hand and unleashed the Great Five Elements Destruction Divine Light.

The power of the Five Elements Principle reversed and transformed into an unparalleled torrent of destruction, carrying the might to Destruction all laws, and rushed straight towards the Nine Dragons Furnace.

"Boom!"

"Bang!"

Two deafening roars erupted in succession, and the raging sea of fire instantly collapsed and dissipated before the Destruction Divine Light.

The divine light, its remaining power slightly diminished, struck the Nine Dragons Furnace with the speed of a shooting star, faster than lightning.

The furnace body was violently sent flying backward, its path leaving jagged cracks in the void.

The cracks that were originally covering the furnace body seemed to be widening, and the churning black demonic flames inside the furnace dimmed somewhat.

"Puff!"

Du Yi and the others coughed up a mouthful of blood, their faces filled with horror and confusion, and they screamed incoherently:

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

This must be fake!

How could a cultivator at the Dao Integration Realm be so powerful?

I don't believe in your Divine Ability powers or your formidable physical strength!

After speaking, he activated the Nine Dragons Furnace, and the pitch-black demonic flames instantly surged, enveloping the entire furnace like ink.

It transformed into a burning meteor, carrying a devastating force as it hurtled straight at Liu Yi.

"Hmph, you really think you can rest easy hiding inside Immortal Artifact? Today I'll smash this broken furnace to pieces!"

Liu Yi scoffed coldly, his mind racing.

Although he was very confident in his physical strength, he wasn't one to take things lying down and didn't want to confront it head-on with his body.

Moreover, this Nine Dragons Furnace is far more complex than it appears on the surface!

The furnace body contained a faint, elusive demonic aura.

And the terrifying power it unleashed at this moment was almost at the level of True Immortal.

Clearly, a hidden force is stirring things up behind the scenes, but it's unclear why they haven't revealed themselves yet.

He moved with ghostly speed, dodging the impact of the furnace.

At the same time, he raised his attack power to near the level of True Immortal, but did not actually reach the True Immortal.

This is to prevent the seals and restrictions that cover the entire world from mistaking him for True Immortal and suppressing him, which would make him an innocent victim.

Then, the Great Five Elements Destruction Divine Light, carrying the power to Destruction all laws, continuously bombarded the Nine Dragons Furnace.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The deafening collisions echoed continuously, the void shattered into a spiderweb pattern under the relentless impact, and the violent energy shockwaves swept in all directions like a tsunami.

The buildings and peaks of the Demonic Flame Sect's mountain gate that had not been destroyed collapsed and were blasted into dust.

Those cultivators who had originally coveted the immortal Immortal Artifact were instantly blown away by the shockwave, spitting out blood and suffering severe injuries.

How could they dare to linger?

They all fled far away, fearing they would be caught in the crossfire of this battle of the gods and suffer the fate of having their souls scattered.

The group fled in disarray for thousands of miles before daring to stop, gazing at the earth-shattering battle in the direction of the Demonic Flame Sect's mountain gate, their faces filled with lingering shock and horror.

"This must be a battle between True Immortal!"

Otherwise, how could it possess such power? The aftershocks alone injured me, Late Stage of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm!

"This is terrifying! Could this be the power of Immortal Artifact? It's incredibly powerful! If I could obtain this Immortal Artifact, I would have hope of Tribulation Transcendence an immortal!"

"You want Immortal Artifact? You're dreaming. If Liu Yi hadn't been here today, we'd be lucky to escape with our lives."

"If I had escaped any slower, I would probably have been blasted to death by the aftershocks! Alas, I'll never have a chance to get my hands on that Immortal Artifact."

"I never imagined that the Demonic Flame Sect would possess a Immortal Artifact capable of unleashing such power! Fortunately, Liu Yi is here; otherwise, our lives would likely be in grave danger today."

"Not good! Get back as far away as possible! The aftershocks of their fight are getting stronger; if we don't retreat now, we'll be seriously injured!"

The aftershocks of the battle grew increasingly violent, with turbulent energy currents sweeping in all directions, tearing the heavens and earth apart.

Terrified, everyone dared not linger for even a moment and fled as fast as they could in the distance.

Bai Qianqian watched the fierce battle between Liu Yi and the Nine Dragons Furnace, her delicate brows furrowed, her face full of worry.

She keenly sensed that the power unleashed by that Immortal Artifact had exceeded all reason, and its might was far beyond what Du Yi and the others could control.

Therefore, there is a real mastermind lurking in the shadows.

Even knowing that Liu Yi's strength was unfathomable, she still couldn't help feeling uneasy about this thought.

"Bang!"

A deafening roar shook the heavens, Nine Dragons Furnace was once again blasted away by the Destruction Divine Light.

The cracks that were already covering the furnace body now spread and expanded like a spider web, and the dark demonic flames that enveloped the furnace body dimmed, flickering and seemingly about to go out.

Du Yi and the others were deathly pale, their eyes filled with horror and despair, their spiritual energy almost completely depleted.

"Impossible... How could you possibly withstand Immortal Artifact?"

This is completely illogical! What kind of monster are you?

A cold smile curved Liu Yi's lips, his voice as indifferent as ice:

"Nothing is absolutely impossible in this world. If you can't do it, it's just that you're not capable enough."

Your spiritual power is almost exhausted; your death is imminent.

He paused slightly, then his gaze suddenly locked onto the Nine Dragons Furnace:

"Shouldn't the mastermind hiding behind this show up by now?"

These people from the Demonic Flame Sect alone are no match for me.

"What?"

Du Yi was stunned, his face full of confusion. "What nonsense are you talking about? What mastermind?"

"Hmph, do you really think you can unleash such power from Immortal Artifact with your meager abilities?"

Liu Yi's cold laugh was filled with disdain, his gaze remaining fixed on the furnace.

"If it weren't for someone secretly helping you, you would have been dead long ago."

"And you don't need to hide anymore, I've already sensed your presence."

Hehehe...

A hoarse laugh suddenly came from the Nine Dragons Furnace:

"I never expected that even though I was hiding so well, you still managed to find out."

Not bad, not bad. You're much better than those useless trash from the Demonic Flame Sect.

"To be able to unleash combat power approaching that of True Immortal at this level is truly remarkable."

"Whose voice is this...?"

Du Yi was visibly shaken, his face filled with disbelief and horror.

"The Nine Dragons Furnace has been in the possession of my Demonic Flame Sect for tens of thousands of years, yet we have never detected anyone else inside?"

The voice rang out again, carrying a hint of barely perceptible contempt:

"I am the spirit of the Nine Dragons Furnace."

"I do not wish to reveal myself. With your meager skills, how could you possibly detect me?"

"A spirit weapon?"

Liu Yi shook his head, his gaze sharp as he looked at the Nine Dragons Furnace, his tone full of disdain:

"You think you can fool me with this nonsense? You might fool those idiots in the Demonic Flame Sect, but you think you can fool me?"
