Become a fairy alone
Chapter 5858 The Shift Between Offense and Defense
Lu Xiaotian remained unmoved, as streaks of sword light pierced through various parts of the void.
Although he didn't have the Dragon Soul Flying Sword in hand, Lu Xiaotian's sword intent was unleashed through the Sumeru Twelve Demon-Slaying Sword Formation. Within this pre-constructed spatial passage, it possessed considerable power and the ability to appear and disappear unpredictably.
The darting sword beams forced the Black Floating Bone Emperor to frequently parry, while a series of needle shadows unexpectedly attacked his vital points.
"Bluster, it seems you're nothing special after all." After fighting for a while, Lu Xiaotian's methods were repeatedly repelled, and Black Bone Emperor said this without any politeness.
"Be careful, the other side may be bluffing." The Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor broke through layers of obstacles and struck Lu Xiaotian with a palm, but his dragon body was exceptionally strong and failed to cause any substantial damage to Lu Xiaotian.
A flash of azure light appeared in the eyes of the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor. The opponent's supernatural powers were astonishing, especially at the beginning when the Dragon Soul Flying Sword and the Great Five Elements Dragon Evolution Divine Needle had indeed taken the initiative.
Neither of them dared to underestimate it in the slightest. After all, the aura of the Supreme Heavenly Dragon was too oppressive. Even if it was just an ordinary method, they had to be on their guard to deal with it.
Only after a real exchange did they realize that the opponent's flying swords and needle shadows had no physical form and contained relatively limited power.
The two demon ancestors of Yundu were also veterans of countless battles. After their exchange, they naturally realized that Lu Xiaotian's combat power was greatly limited. It was already quite remarkable that he could withstand the erosion of the formation with just a few broken bodies. It was unrealistic for him to break through in a short time.
Lu Xiaotian didn't seem to care about these losses. Not only did some of his attacks fail to achieve their intended effect, but he was also frequently hit by the two old monsters, only managing to hold on thanks to the strength of his Heavenly Dragon body.
Faced with this unusual situation, the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor naturally became even more vigilant.
"Not good! The enemy doesn't want to go out, but wants to come in." During the battle, a wisp of dragon energy was suddenly detected seeping in from the outside. Black Floating Bone Emperor immediately realized the enemy's intention. Breaking through directly was too difficult, so the enemy did the opposite.
The Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor was also startled, only then remembering that when Lu Xiaotian was first trapped here, he was only a limb, but later the two limbs merged together, and now the other party wanted to use the same trick again.
"I'll hold him back, you stop him!" The Demon Ancestor of Yundu immediately made the arrangement. They could trap Lu Xiaotian in his current state with their great formation, but if his strength increased significantly again, the situation might become uncontrollable.
"It's too late." Lu Xiaotian said calmly. His attack just now was mainly based on the soul, and he also used the Soul Domain Dharma Realm to weaken the two old monsters' perception of the formation.
The attack, carrying the aura of the Heavenly Dragon, was indeed terrifying at first. The opponent was wary and focused on their work, so they didn't notice the approaching remains of the body outside. By the time the two of them reacted, it was already too late.
Even though the Black Bone Emperor and the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor tried their best to block and restrain them, they could no longer prevent the two dragon energies inside and outside the formation from intertwining.
The matter is very simple when you look at it clearly; in retrospect, it's worthless. But there's no turning back in this world.
"Damn it!" Black Bone Emperor cursed in shock, trying to use this rage to mask his inner fear.
After the two dragon energies merged, Lu Xiaotian's body flashed with azure light in their sight. The human form he manifested was not as stable as before, and it seemed to vaguely reveal a body missing its right arm and head.
Lu Xiaotian's body was still broken, but he had already gathered most of his strength, and his aura was rising steadily compared to before.
Black Floating Bone Emperor had fought against the remnants on both sides. Although his strength on Qingmu Sacred Abyss's side was also quite good, he still needed the help of several juniors such as Wen He and Red Dream Demon Lord to fight him to a draw.
However, after Lu Xiaotian's different limbs merge, his strength cannot be simply calculated by adding up his combat power.
Now the torso has merged, directly and perfectly uniting with the two legs and the left arm. The abnormal energy within each has been completely cleared, so there is no need to spend time conditioning the body anymore.
The moment they merged, Lu Xiaotian's headless body's aura surged to an unprecedented peak.
Lu Xiaotian reached out and made a grasping motion in the air. Both the Black Floating Bone Emperor and the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor let out a muffled groan, their faces instantly turning much paler.
However, it was the divided spirits of two old monsters in the Soul Domain, each held by a dragon claw. With a little force from Lu Xiaotian, the two divided spirits began to slowly dissolve. The damage to their primordial spirits naturally did not feel good to them.
"So powerful!" Black Bone Emperor and Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor were shocked.
Lu Xiaotian's original limbs were already difficult to deal with, but now that his torso has been fused, his strength has increased so much that it has exceeded their expectations.
Lu Xiaotian's methods didn't stop there. After subduing the opponent's distraction, he pointed at the black gourd and a sword beam slowly flew out from his fingertip. The speed seemed extremely slow, but wherever it passed, the skeletal shadows seemed as fragile as bubbles, collapsing one after another under the illumination of the sword light.
When the Black Floating Bone Emperor realized what was happening, his first instinct was to avoid the attack. Just as he was about to put away the gourd, the sword light had already flown in front of him. The distance created by the space seemed to be completely negligible under the sword light.
Before the sword light even touched the gourd, the Black Floating Bone Emperor felt as if he was about to be pierced through.
"This is outrageous!" The Black Bone Emperor, filled with shock and anger, summoned three bluish-black bone spikes and thrust them at the sword light. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not stop the sword light from advancing.
"Old monster Yundu, quickly lend me a hand!" Black Bone Emperor urged laboriously.
"They're here!" The Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor was shocked; the extent of the opponent's increase in strength was truly astonishing. He immediately opened his mouth wide, and four cloud rings flew out. The surrounding clouds frantically converged on these cloud rings, which, despite their seemingly light appearance, carried an unprecedented weight, pressing down on Lu Xiaotian.
At the same time, the surrounding array formed a gigantic black bone skeleton wielding hammers in both hands, and a cloud demon wielding a battle sword. Each of their bodies almost occupied half of the cloud capital, and they attacked with both weapons. The two old monsters not only went all out, but also used the power of the array to its fullest extent.
With a roar, a blue dragon burst forth from Lu Xiaotian's headless body.
The Azure Dragon roamed the void for a lap, its head roaring at the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor. The sound waves surged outwards like waves, shattering the swirling clouds one after another.
Tianlong Bayin launched another attack. Under the rolling sound waves, the divine consciousness of the two old monsters scattered outside was swept away and they were once again dragged into the Soul Domain.
The Demon Ancestor of Yundu was the first to be affected. He felt that his primordial spirit was not very stable in his body. It was being dragged by a huge force, and it seemed that he would be trapped in that strange Dharma Realm at any time.
The previous distraction was when Lu Xiaotian reached out and grabbed him in the Dharma Realm. Now, with Lu Xiaotian using the same method again, the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"I refuse to believe your body is made of bronze and iron!" The Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor gritted his teeth. Facing this enormous danger, he withstood the pressure and joined forces with the Black Floating Bone Emperor to control the formation. The giant skull warhammer and the Cloud Demon wielding a giant sword attacked Lu Xiaotian from both the front and the back.
Their opponent's methods were too domineering, making them practically defenseless. The best defense was offense. Injuring Lu Xiaotian's physical body might disrupt their attack rhythm. Their timing was also excellent; while Lu Xiaotian was strong, he wasn't strong enough to overwhelm them. They either had to stop their attack or each endure the other's assault.
However, deep down, the two old monsters still hoped that Lu Xiaotian would back down when faced with difficulties.
They were eroded by the aura of the calamity of heaven and earth, and their strength was no longer what it used to be. If they were seriously injured and could not get enough replenishment, it would be extremely dangerous for the Black Floating Bone Emperor and the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor.
I had some expectations, but things turned out the worst possible way.
Lu Xiaotian neither dodged nor evaded, but instead punched the warhammer off course.
Clang! The giant blade in Yun Yao's hand struck Lu Xiaotian's back solidly, but was then bounced back by a tremendous force.
Lu Xiaotian's phantom image completely dissipated, revealing an unprecedentedly clear headless, one-armed body within.
The Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor and the Black Floating Bone Emperor were stunned. Although the headless body staggered forward under the huge impact of the blow, no obvious wounds were left on its back.
Clearly, the opponent blocked this incredibly powerful strike with their bare body. Just how strong must their defense be?
"Not good!" After Lu Xiaotian took the full force of the blow, the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor was in considerable pain. The Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds reverberated violently, and the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor felt as if his primordial spirit was about to be dragged away at any moment.
"Shi Hong, Lian Kun, Yun Ling, come quickly!" In the fierce battle, the primordial spirit of the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor was damaged, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. His strength and that of the Black Floating Bone Emperor were no longer enough to resolve the current crisis.
However, this is Yundu after all, and he still has several demon lord-level powerhouses under his command.
"Cloud Demon Totem!" The strongest of the six-armed Cloud-Eyed Lions immediately controlled the power of the totem, turning it into a giant hand that slammed towards Lu Xiaotian.
At the same time, Cloud Pattern Crab Emperor and Cloud Spirit Demon Lord also drew their weapons and attacked simultaneously.
Lu Xiaotian flicked his finger, and a black lotus appeared out of thin air, supporting the giant hand that the cloud demon totem was about to strike.
As for the weapons of Cloud Pattern Dragon King and Cloud Spirit Demon Lord, they were directly blasted away by his protective dragon aura.
Several demon lord-level powerhouses felt their throats go dry upon witnessing this terrifying scene. The Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor and the Black Floating Bone Emperor were beings they could only look up to in their daily lives.
Yet, this mere headless corpse, missing an arm, had single-handedly forced the two Demon Ancestors of Yundu to seek help from them, the juniors. This cast a shadow over their hearts.
They weren't entirely clear on what the two old monsters of the Cloud Capital Demon Clan had been plotting all these years, but as events surfaced one by one, even the slow-witted Six-Armed Cloud-Eyed Lion and the others realized that the Cloud Capital Demon Ancestor and the Black Floating Bone Emperor's plans had completely failed, and they had also offended an unprecedentedly powerful dragon.
If they cannot fight with all their might to trap and kill the enemy here, they will absolutely not be able to withstand the enemy's retaliation afterward.
Even if they could kill it, what price would they have to pay? In a melee of this level, these juniors would easily risk their lives.
Despite their fear, they had no choice but to fight.
“This fellow Daoist from the Dragon Clan has offended us greatly in the past. Now neither of us can do anything to the other, so why don’t we just stop fighting?” The Demon Lord of Cloud Capital said with fear, resentment, and helplessness in his eyes.
The Black Bone Emperor also breathed a sigh of relief. If there had been even the slightest chance, they would have done everything in their power to surround and kill Lu Xiaotian here.
However, as the opponent's limbs merged together one after another, and their strength increased to such an astonishing level, they had completely lost their chance.
After the three juniors, the Six-Armed Cloud-Eyed Lion, gathered together, along with the power of the Cloud Demon Totem, Lu Xiaotian was no match for them in terms of strength.
However, Lu Xiaotian still has several incredibly powerful juniors under his command. If reinforcements arrive, the consequences will be disastrous.
Moreover, during the fierce battle just now, several gaps have appeared in the entire formation. With Lu Xiaotian's current strength, even if he can't defeat so many of them working together, they can't stop him from leaving if he wants to.
"No good. They've imprisoned me for hundreds of thousands of years, trying to refine my limbs. Now that things can't be done, they want to give up and make peace. There's no such thing as a free lunch."
Lu Xiaotian smiled faintly. The balance of power had shifted, and he now held the initiative. He would not be able to quell the anger he had been harboring for so many years without turning the entire Yundu upside down.
The reason why so many Dragon Lords and Demon Lord-level powerhouses appeared in the Dragon Realm was because they were created in various fierce battles.
The way of the sky is more than damage but not enough to make up for.
Su Qing and Zhu Qi's cultivation has reached a bottleneck. Wen He, Kong Yan, and Chi Meng Demon Lord also need a lot of luck. The cloud capital in front of them is the best whetstone for them.
"The outcome is still uncertain!" Black Floating Bone Emperor roared. Before his words were finished, he controlled the Floating Yama Bone Spikes to shoot towards Lu Xiaotian.
The Demon Ancestor of Yundu also made his move. Since there was no possibility of reconciliation, he could only do his best to severely injure Lu Xiaotian before Wen He and Kong Yan arrived.
The battle became extremely fierce.
"Let's go!" Just as Lu Xiaotian's body was reunited, Wen He, Kong Yan and his group received Lu Xiaotian's message, and their faces were filled with great joy.
The exact situation over there was still unknown, but an extremely powerful aura of a celestial dragon was already faintly emanating from it, mixed with strong demonic energy and the aura of corpses. Clearly, it was the other two ancient monsters at the Emperor level.
Thinking that the Dragon Lord was now fighting against all the demons in Yundu by himself, Wen He, Kong Yan and the others were extremely anxious.
"This time, we absolutely have to turn the whole cloud upside down," Wen He said with a cold snort.
"We'll settle old scores and new grudges together this time." Luo Qian's tone was grim. Previously, Lu Xiaotian had returned to Yundu alone, leaving them temporarily in a safe area, but they were not at ease. This helpless waiting made them feel extremely anxious. Now they could finally fight alongside Lu Xiaotian again.
When Wen He and his group arrived at the outskirts of Yundu, they witnessed a fierce clash of various powerful forces, with the roars of dragons, corpse demons, and cloud monsters echoing throughout. (End of Chapter)
