Tang Dynasty Demon Suppression Division

Beneath the mask was a face so handsome it was almost otherworldly, with exquisite features, fair skin like jade, and a faint shimmering starlight.

What is most striking are his eyes; his left pupil is like a blazing sun, while his right pupil is like a clear, bright moon, the sun and moon shining together, captivating the soul.

"Who said..."

"Am I definitely a member of the Demon Court?"

The Demon Emperor Chen Su spoke slowly, his voice still deep, but now tinged with undisguised arrogance, "The Demon Court is nothing but a rabble. Why should I be bound by them?"

He raised his hand, and a tiny spark of starlight appeared at his fingertips, quickly spreading throughout his body.

His body began to change, silver streaks like the movement of stars appeared on his skin, his figure grew several inches taller, and a vast and ancient aura emanated from him.

"I am the spirit of the stars, born from the sea of ​​stars and raised in the void. You mere humans dare to oppose me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, starlight shone brightly around him, as if he had transformed into a star that had fallen to earth. The brilliance of his light even surpassed that of the sun in the sky.

Upon seeing this, Yu Chifeng was not afraid at all; instead, he laughed loudly, "The spirit of the stars? Good, very good!"

"In my lifetime, I have slain demon kings and slaughtered ferocious beasts, but I have never fought a true spirit of the stars. Today, let me see what makes you so special!"

He shook his arms, and lightning crackled around him. Strands of blue-purple electricity coiled around his body like dragons, crackling and popping.

In the sky, dark clouds gathered rapidly, and thunder rumbled, as if the heavens themselves were drumming up support for the impending great battle.

"bring it on!"

With a loud shout, Yu Chifeng transformed into a bolt of lightning and launched the first attack.

"You think I'm afraid of you!"

The Demon Emperor of the Stars snorted coldly, his figure transforming into a streak of starlight as he rushed forward.

Two figures, one purple and one green, collided violently in the sky in front of Tiger Wolf Pass.

Thunder and starlight intertwined, thunder roared and starbursts resounded!

"Boom!"

Each collision unleashed terrifying shockwaves powerful enough to tear apart the void, leaving deep cracks in the ground and causing the array shield on the wall to flicker wildly, as if it might collapse at any moment.

Dozens of skilled cultivators immediately joined forces to support the formation, fearing it might collapse in the next instant.

The guards were mesmerized and their minds were shaken. This was a duel between top experts.

Every move and stance contains the power of heaven and earth, enough to move mountains and fill seas.

Just as everyone's attention was drawn to the epic battle in the sky, Li Yuan, who had been under the watchful eye of the Silver Wolf strategist, suddenly had a glint in his eyes.

Right now.

He suddenly broke free of his shackles, slapped the Silver Wolf strategist beside him with a backhand, and at the same time shouted at Zhao Lingyun.

"Walk!"

At this moment, the Silver Wolf strategist's mind was completely focused on the sky. He had no idea that Li Yuan could break free of his shackles, let alone that he would dare to launch an attack at this time.

Caught off guard, he was struck squarely in the chest with a palm strike, let out a muffled groan, and flew backward, knocking over the two demon guards behind him.

Li Yuan grabbed Zhao Lingyun and, with lightning speed, rushed towards the array passage of Tiger Wolf Pass.

"Stop him!"

The Silver Wolf strategist was furious and roared.

The Blue-Eyed Eagle King reacted immediately, both shocked and furious. It let out a sharp cry and flapped its wings to strike.

"Boom!"

But just then, a deafening roar came from the sky. Yuchi Feng and Chen Su Demon Emperor were fighting with all their might, unleashing a terrifying shockwave that sent people on the ground flying.

The massive body of the Azure-Eyed Eagle King was also thrown off balance by the shockwave, and its attack slowed down.

In that brief moment of delay, Li Yuan had already pulled Zhao Lingyun and rushed to the entrance of the array passage.

Xu Sheng, who was guarding the formation inside, was both surprised and delighted. He quickly activated the formation, opening the passage to its maximum: "Come in quickly!"

Just as Li Yuan was about to crawl inside, he heard the sound of wind behind him again.

"Where do you think you're going!"

The Azure-Eyed Eagle King was enraged to see Li Yuan escape right under its nose. With a sharp cry, it folded its wings and its massive body transformed into lightning as it swooped down, its sharp talons carrying the terrifying power to split mountains and cleave rocks, aiming straight for Li Yuan's back.

This claw strike was faster than anyone could imagine. The Azure-Eyed Eagle King attacked in a fit of rage, using almost all its strength. Before the eagle claw even arrived, the sharp claw wind had already left several bloody marks on Li Yuan's back.

A warning bell rang in Li Yuan's heart. He knew that in his current state, taking that claw head-on would surely mean certain death.

In a flash, he almost instinctively activated the power of space and time.

"Time—pause!"

"Buzz—!"

The flow of time within a radius of three zhang centered on Li Yuan suddenly became extremely slow.

The lightning-fast claw strike of the Azure-Eyed Eagle King seemed to be slowed down tenfold in Li Yuan's perception. He could even clearly see the texture of each scale on the eagle's claw and the sharp edge of demonic power gathered at the claw tip.

Although this pause lasted only a breath, it almost exhausted all of Li Yuan's newly recovered mana, causing his vision to go black for a moment. But for a true expert, a breath is enough.

"presumptuous!"

With a deep shout, Chu Jinghong's figure instantly teleported behind Li Yuan. His beard and hair stood on end, and his aura surged. He pointed his right hand like a sword, and a highly refined cyan sword aura shot out from his fingertip, slashing towards the claws of the Azure-Eyed Eagle King.

"clang--!"

A deafening roar, like the clash of metal, erupted.

The cyan sword energy collided fiercely with the eagle claw, unleashing a blinding light.

The Azure-Eyed Eagle King felt an overwhelming force emanating from its claws, causing its sharp claws to go slightly numb and halting its forward momentum.

It was horrified. Although Chu Jinghong was at the peak of the Condensation Realm, the power of this sword strike was faintly touching the threshold of the Dao Entry Realm.

In that brief pause, Li Yuan had already pulled Zhao Lingyun and rushed completely into the array passage.

The pale golden light barrier quickly closed, isolating the Azure-Eyed Eagle King from the outside.

"hateful--!"

The Blue-Eyed Eagle King watched helplessly as the fat meat that was about to be eaten flew away. He was so angry that he flew into a rage, frantically flapping his wings against the ground and stirring up a storm of sand.

It turned its head sharply and vented its anger on the fake Li Yuan. It couldn't afford to lose him again.

"I'll grab you first!"

With a fierce cry, the Eagle King abandoned Chu Jinghong and unleashed both claws, carrying a violent demonic power, as it pounced on the fake Li Yuan.

The fake Li Yuan's expression was solemn. He drew his long sword from his waist, and flames blazed on the blade. Chen Shuo immediately stepped forward and stood beside him. The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, faced the Eagle King.

Chu Jinghong stood with his hands behind his back on the wall, his aura locking onto the Azure-Eyed Eagle King from afar. Although he did not make a move, the pressure of his peak Qi Condensation Realm cultivation subtly weighed on the Eagle King's heart, forcing it to devote some of its energy to defense and preventing it from going all out.

The Eagle King grew increasingly frustrated as the fight progressed. Although it possessed the cultivation of a Demon King, Chen Shuo and his companion worked together seamlessly, one attacking and the other defending, preventing the Eagle King from gaining the upper hand in a short period.

Moreover, with Chu Jinghong watching it intently nearby, it dared not make a desperate attempt.

"cracking!"

It let out a reluctant screech, feinted with its claws, and quickly retreated, creating distance.

Meanwhile, high in the sky, the thrilling showdown had entered its most intense phase.

Thunder roared and stars shone brightly!

The figures of Yuchi Feng and Chen Su Demon Emperor clashed fiercely in the sky.
