Tang Dynasty Demon Suppression Division

An invisible barrier stretched across the valley entrance, emitting a dim light. If Li Yuan hadn't possessed a strong spiritual sense, he would have crashed into it.

This is a trap that was set in advance.

It seems that today's ambush was planned long ago; the other side had already figured out his patrol route and meticulously planned it.

He glanced in the direction of Anxi City. So much time had passed and there had been no movement at all, which meant that they had cut off the fluctuations of energy in advance.

Today is a certain death day; no one will come to his rescue.

Realizing this, Li Yuan calmed down, stopped, turned around, and quickly looked around.

"Hey kid, why aren't you running anymore?"

"Weren't you running pretty fast just now?"

Shadow Demon and Powerful Demon Emperor blocked him from the front and back, closing in step by step. Facing the already injured Li Yuan, the two did not let their guard down, but were very cautious.

Both the white ape and the red flame suffered losses at his hands. For this mission, Zhu Yan gave them a strict order: they were only allowed to succeed, and failure was not an option.

The idea of ​​two demon emperors conspiring to ambush a junior in the Qi Condensation Realm is laughable. If they still fail, they might as well give up their careers.

With things having come to this point, Li Yuan had no way out but to fight to the death for a sliver of hope.

His gaze sharpened, and the blade shone brightly, revealing Yan Ji's figure once more, merging with him.

The Heavenly Flame shall be forever silenced!

Li Yuan unleashed his strongest killing move without holding back.

The massive blade of light slashed towards the Powerful Demon Emperor directly in front of him, and the fierce battle intent instantly locked onto his body. At this moment, the Powerful Demon Emperor felt as if he were being stared at by a prehistoric beast, and his heart trembled.

"roar!"

He roared, his body swelled up, instantly expanding to a height of over ten zhang, and he clenched his huge fist to meet the blade.

Shadow Fiend wasn't idle either. With a swift movement, he pressed close to Li Yuan's back, his blade dark and exuding a sweet, metallic scent.

Attacked from both sides, Li Yuan seemed to have completely abandoned defense and was focusing all his efforts on dealing with the powerful demon emperor from his previous life.

"boom!"

The blade clashed with the fist, unleashing a deafening roar. The violent shockwave was contained by the array and did not travel outwards at all, but it still sent rocks flying throughout the valley, leaving a huge crater in the ground.

"choke!"

At the same time, the Shadow Demon King's blade touched the hem of Li Yuan's clothes, and a shield suddenly appeared, blocking the fatal blow.

It is the Thunder Shield.

With Li Yuan's current cultivation level, he could fight to a draw with an early-stage Demon Emperor, but he couldn't handle two Demon Emperors at the same time. Fortunately, he had this Immortal-level defensive magic treasure, which saved his life at the critical moment.

Shadow Demon valued his life highly. When his attack missed, he slid away from him like a fish and instantly appeared dozens of feet away.

"You're quite skilled!"

"Again!"

The powerful demon emperor roared and charged forward again with a punch.

"Boom boom boom!"

In the blink of an eye, the two clashed more than a dozen times, creating shockwaves that shaved off half of the mountain peak.

Shadow Demon watched the battle from the sidelines, occasionally looking for opportunities to launch sneak attacks. Although each attack was blocked in time by the Thunder Shield, he was like a fly, impossible to guard against.

"boom!"

After another collision, both Li Yuan and the Powerful Demon Emperor were sent flying backward, looking rather miserable.

Blood seeped from the corner of Li Yuan's lips, and his arms were split open, bleeding profusely.

The figure of the Powerful Demon Emperor had shrunk considerably compared to before, and his tiger's mouth was also split open. It seemed that neither of them had gained the upper hand.

Li Yuan looked up at the sky. It was noon, the sun was high in the sky, and the power of the stars was at its weakest. This was probably something the other side had planned long ago.

After exchanging so many blows with the opponent, the Yuan energy in his body was severely depleted. Even with the replenishment of star power, the recovery speed was far slower than the loss.

If he were facing only one demon emperor, he might even be confident of gradually gaining the upper hand. Unfortunately, he has to face two at the same time, and the longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for him.

"Kid, let's see how long you can hold out!"

Clearly, the other party had anticipated this, and watched him approach step by step with a sinister grin.

"Two against one, and you guys seem pretty proud of it?"

Li Yuan smiled, making the two of them blush.

Juli let out a low roar and charged forward again.

This time, a huge warhammer appeared in his hand, and he smashed it straight down towards Li Yuan.

"Take this!"

Not to be outdone, Ying Sha saw Ju Li unleash his ultimate move, and with a flick of his wrist, his short sword transformed into countless afterimages, heading straight for Li Yuan's back.

The sky and earth changed color. A huge hammer shadow appeared overhead, and a net of blades stretched behind him. Li Yuan was caught in the middle, like a lone boat tossed about in a gale.

Li Yuan, his clothes fluttering, stood tall and unmoved, a glint of cunning flashing in his eyes, and calmly uttered a single word.

"stop!"

In an instant, heaven and earth froze.

The Shadow Demon and the Powerful Demon Emperor froze simultaneously; the wind stopped, the light and shadows stagnated, and even the air ceased to move.

Time confinement.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Yuan unleashed a powerful slash the instant the time confinement was activated.

Five-colored blade light, like a rainbow, shot straight into the sky!

Their target is the powerful Demon Emperor.

"boom!"

The blade's light pierced the air, striking the powerful demon emperor squarely in the chest.

Almost simultaneously, Ju Li also broke free from the constraints of time and hastily raised his hammer to block.

"Give it to me, explode!"

With a roar, Li Yuan unleashed a massive sphere of five-colored blade light that exploded into existence.

With a deafening roar, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and the massive body of the Powerful Demon Emperor was blasted backward, crashing heavily into the mountainside.

At this moment, the time confinement had reached its limit, and the Shadow Demon Emperor struggled to break free.

A beam of cold light shot out, aiming straight for Li Yuan's heart.

"Ding!"

The Thunder Shield blocked the attack, but Shadow Fiend revealed a triumphant smile.

A strong sense of crisis swept through Li Yuan's heart. He instinctively teleported, and a cold light flashed from the air, piercing through his left chest and spraying blood.

"Ugh!"

He groaned, his body swayed, and he slipped out through the crack in the formation.

This was something he had planned beforehand. The explosion just now not only severely injured the Powerful Demon Emperor, but also blasted a crack in the formation.

He won his bet.

Upon exiting the formation, the first thing to do was not to flee at full speed, but to release one's aura. A beam of light shot into the sky, piercing the clouds and forming a straight rainbow in the sky.

The rainbow was so striking that it was clearly visible even from hundreds or thousands of miles away in the vast Gobi Desert.

Knowing he was already severely injured and had no chance of escaping from the two demon emperors, he could only send a message to buy time and wait for rescue.

"Damn it, don't let him get away!"

The Shadow Fiend's furious shriek came from behind him. He waved his hand to dispel the formation and chased after him.

The Demon Emperor's chest was a bloody mess. He struggled to get up from the ground, raised his hand to temporarily seal the wound, roared, and shot towards Li Yuan.

Blood gushed from the wound on Li Yuan's chest, quickly turning bluish-purple. Even his Yuan energy couldn't seal it off, and the poison began to rapidly erode his body, making his flight unsteady.

"Quickly! Finish this quickly!"

"He can't hold on any longer!"

Seeing that Li Yuan's speed was getting slower and slower, Ying Sha was overjoyed. It was worth the poison he had obtained by exchanging a magic weapon; it was indeed effective.

Li Yuan flipped his hand, and a demon core appeared in his palm. The violent demonic power surged into his body, quickly replenishing the nearly depleted Yuan energy within him.

He forcefully protected his heart meridian, keeping the toxins out, and instantly increased his speed.

Just when he was about to catch up, he was pushed forward again, making Ying Sha so angry that he had to grit his teeth.

That brat is really hard to kill!
