The Warrior of Love

“They keep coming one after another, just like worker bees!”

After all, he is a natural warrior. Although he does not have the means of large-scale destruction, he is powerful enough to shatter mountains and rivers and has extremely high endurance. He also has a certain degree of "magic immunity", so he is absolutely invincible on the battlefield.

One after another, the Rakshasas tried to surround and kill him. The dazzling shock waves crisscrossed each other, almost illuminating the entire sky, but not only did they fail to hurt him, they were even killed by him with his superb physical skills!

In the past, he could only use his own strength roughly, relying on the cheating-level gift to rush around recklessly, but now he can perfectly allocate his own strength and knows how to maximize efficiency.

As Izayoi grew braver as the battle went on, he naturally became the storm sweeping across the battlefield. He failed to kill all the enemies, but he specifically defeated each Rakshasa army formation, allowing the rest of the coalition forces to organize small-scale annihilation battles.

Although he complained, Izayoi's hands never stopped, turning the tense situation towards the victory of the coalition forces at a speed visible to the naked eye!

——This is just one part of the long battle line.

After the Rakshasa King's war game began, he took the initiative and immediately put the coalition forces on the defensive.

Even if Jiang Liu reached a consensus and decided to attack instead of defend and destroy the Demon King's weakness, he would have to wait until he had repelled the enemy's first wave of attacks and stabilized the front line.

"Die to me!"

He smashed a powerful Rakshasa with a strength of five figures into pieces with one punch, and Izayoi quickly passed through the battlefield in the scattered spiritual light.

After his unremitting efforts, the battle situation has been completely in the coalition's favor. The stronger Rakshasas have been eliminated one by one by him. Even without him, the remaining enemy troops will be slowly strangled by the coalition.

"In that case!"

Izayoi took out a crystal from the tool kit on his waist and crushed it with force.

hum!

A faint light suddenly appeared somewhere outside the gate, causing the blond boy to look delighted.

“It really works!”

Izayoi arrived at the gate of the realm, and according to the direction he had memorized before, he jumped into the light...

You know, although the thirteen outer gates were attacked together, the enemy's strength in each place was different, and the coalition forces' defenses also had differences in strength.

This resulted in an extremely complicated situation. In some places, the guarding forces were strong and there were few enemies encountered, but in some places, there were few guards and yet they encountered the main force of the enemy.

Therefore, the coalition forces immediately dispatched powerful individuals who were strong enough to influence the course of the war, that is, individuals with a strength of more than five digits, to the most critical battlefield.

And if there is enough time, these strong men will support other battlefields.

In fact, this tactic could be executed thanks to that great villain...that loli demon - Vera of "Wilson's Fire".

She is a special demon born between the realm of life and death. Her own combat power is just so-so. The reason she is regarded as the "strongest demon in the North District" is because she has the ability to control the realm and can even affect the "realm gate".

You know, that is the masterpiece of the Halloween Queen. Apart from the strong ones of the same level, those who can influence the "realm gate" can be said to be rarer than giant pandas.

Among the people Jiang Liu met in the small garden, besides Vera, it seemed that only Maxwell had this potential... but most of the time it would not work.

The "Rakshasa Kingdom"'s closure of space is not absolute. The more solid its "rule" is, the more difficult it is to break through the closure of space. But in the outer gate that they have just invaded, although the "realm gate" was disturbed and difficult to use, it was not that serious.

Vera can shake up this closed space to a limited extent, allowing the "Boundary Gate" to operate again.

Of course, it is impossible to teleport troops on a large scale; at most, only a single-digit number of people can be transported.

The crystal that Izayoi had just crushed was a signal to Vera, asking her to restart the "realm gate" corresponding to the outer gate.

“I hope we can hold other places as well.”

With this expectation, Izayoi passed through the "Boundary Gate" and came to the second battlefield.

He had already prepared himself mentally to face the Shura Field, and even anticipated the worst-case scenario: all friendly forces would be wiped out.

However, when he arrived here, the scenery that came into his eyes made him stunned.

The entire street was covered with craters, as if it had been hit by a massive rocket attack, but there was no smell of gunpowder, and the damage was not scattered like gunpowder, but was extremely condensed - now Izayoi could see the difference between the two.

This was punched out by someone!

Its power is much greater than that of so-called rockets, because there is no waste of force, and almost all of it is injected into the target body to cause destruction. These "craters" are just aftermath of the aftermath.

Those Rakshasas that were hit must have died!

"What's going on...who did this?"

Izayoi had some guesses in his mind but was not sure, so he quickened his pace and rushed to the area where the noises were still coming from.

There were sporadic small-scale battles along the way, which he easily resolved, but overall the Rakshasas here seemed to have been eliminated, and the coalition soldiers began to treat the wounded and repair the defense line.

When we arrived at the last place that could be called a "battlefield", we saw only one person fighting against hundreds of Rakshasas alone, and he did not retreat. He even pressed forward step by step, forcing the Rakshasas warriors to retreat continuously with his own strength.

A large number of enemies were knocked away by him and turned into spiritual light and flew away in the air. Judging from his fighting style alone, it was similar to that of Izayoi, both using basic but powerful physical skills, and occasionally using weapons such as sticks, which were all picked up from the ground.

But no matter what weapon he used, he used it with ease, without any sense of awkwardness.

If an expert saw this, they would find that this person had stronger traces of the "school" than Izayoi.

In other words, after a long period of systematic training, he has developed his own style, while Izayoi is still at the stage of simply accumulating skills and proficiency.

Ordinary people might not feel there is any difference, after all, the attacks of the two seem to be of similar power, but someone like Jiang Liu would understand that the road ahead for this person has been opened, while Shizayoi is still groping.

The battle was coming to an end, and even without Izayoi's help, that man quickly won the victory and eliminated the last group of enemies. The cleaning work of this outer gate was even more thorough than that of Izayoi.

"This guy……"

Izayoi knew that man. In fact, he had fought with him before, but the difference between the two was not that big at that time.

He is the "original demon king" who came to find Jiang Liu. When they first met, he looked decadent, but now he seems to be reborn... Shizayoi is deeply shocked.

Although the blond young man had also experienced setbacks like the three-headed dragon, the incident ended too quickly and to him it was just an "invincible enemy". Because of Jiang Liu, he had never experienced "the despair of having no way to struggle".

If you have never fallen to the bottom, you will naturally not be able to understand the feeling of rising from decadence and returning to the top.

Just like steel, after the broken sword is recast, it will be sharper!

"The Demon King Jiao... Jiao Liu!" Shi Liu looked at the man's back. His already tired body suddenly felt a surge of strength from nowhere.

"Okay! Let's go to the next outer door!"

Without saying a word, he turned around and left, heading towards the "Boundary Gate", without even having time to exchange a few words with Jiao Liu.

The Demon King Jiao noticed the gaze and turned around, but all he saw was Shizayoi's quickly departing back.

"This is really getting more and more interesting. I feel so motivated!"

His heart was beating fast and alcohol seemed to be flowing in his blood vessels, making Izayoi feel "drunk", but he knew he was just too excited.

"I want to become stronger! Even if it's the famous Jiao Demon King, even if it's the monster Jiang Liu, I won't admit defeat! Ahahaha!"

Izayoi laughed loudly and flew into the gate...

Chapter 1034: The Great Sage Who Covers the Sea

"That was... the blond boy from Arcadia?"

The Demon King Jiao watched Shizai leave and scratched his head, wondering what he was thinking.

He looked around and found that there were no moving targets, and his brows frowned slightly.

“Is the number too small?”

Although he had gone through a hard battle, he was inexplicably energetic and still had endless strength, ready to launch another rebellious battle to challenge the gods in heaven at any time.

These Rakshasas were merely enough to warm him up. What he was looking for now was a test that would beat and temper his body like a furnace.

Only in this way can he continue to break through himself and return to the peak, or even surpass his limits!

As the saying goes, "steel is finely tempered only after repeated tempering." His practice is far from enough!

"Master Jiao Liu!"

A dragon knight who was obviously from "Salamander" flew over with his companion.

"The enemies in this combat zone have been cleared. Please give us your instructions for the next step!"

"Well, well done... um..."

Jiao Liu pondered for a moment, and suddenly felt a little unsure of what to say.

Although he started over, his old habits were hard to change. Although he was vigorous in battle, he still seemed a little out of breath when talking to people.

"Prioritize the treatment of the wounded. Separate the priorities. The lightly wounded who can move freely should take the initiative to help take care of the seriously wounded. Then, those who are still able to fight should form combat teams of ten to search for any fish that may have slipped through the net."

After giving some rough instructions on the follow-up arrangements, Jiao Liu appointed a temporary commander and then walked towards the "Boundary Gate".

Unlike these exhausted warriors, he was rated as a four-digit strong man. Dealing with these Rakshasas was even easier for him than it was for Izayoi. Now he still had plenty of strength to spare and his fighting spirit was very strong. He couldn't wait to rush to the next battlefield!

Walking on the devastated street, the sunlight penetrated the aurora belt and shone on Jiao Liu, clearly outlining his figure.

This is a man wearing a Hanfu costume woven from a fine fabric, with an eye patch on his left eye covered by slightly longer bangs, giving him a somewhat melancholy vibe.

If you must say, he is a handsome guy. His exposed right eye is always squinting, giving people the impression that he has a lot on his mind.

Like Izayoi, although he possesses divine power, he is not very tall and is even a little thin.

However, people who are not familiar with him would never imagine that hidden beneath this slender appearance is a nature as violent as a volcano.

Because this melancholy man is none other than Jiao Liu, the third ranked Jiao Demon King among the "Seven Great Sages"!

The so-called "Seven Heavenly Sages", as described in Chinese mythology, are seven like-minded demon kings and devil kings who unite together with the Monkey King Sun Wukong as the core and wage war against the gods in heaven in order to defend their own pride and ideals.

It is also the most powerful Demon Alliance in recent years.

However, the "Seven-Day Great Sage" ultimately failed... The seven demon kings met different fates, and just like in "Journey to the West", Sun Wukong converted to Buddhism.

As for the remaining demon kings, some went into seclusion, some traveled outside, and some simply died in the war that year.

The Jiao Demon King Jiao Liu was ranked second among the demon kings and although he survived, his ambition was taken away from him and he is now a different person than before.

So, what did Jiao Liu look like in the past?

It is said that this Jiao Demon King is the child of the Dragon King of the East China Sea and his concubine. He inherited the blood of the Yellow Dragon and possessed the most outstanding talent, but was not recognized because he was a bastard.

In order to prove himself, he made up his mind to drill into an underwater volcano and practiced for a whole thousand years!

It should be noted that even the Yellow Dragon bloodline is still considered to be of the water element. The underwater volcano is where the essence of water and the essence of earth converge, and it also has irreconcilable scorching heat. The conflict of various forces makes its environment extremely harsh.

For a life form like Jiao Liu, practicing in this kind of place is basically torture!

However, Jiao Liu endured it with great perseverance, and continued to accumulate Taoism over the course of a thousand years, eventually gaining the spiritual power of an "immortal dragon" that could rival the God of the Sea and the Goddess of the Earth.

After swearing brotherhood with a like-minded demon king, he ranked third among the "Seven Great Sages" and was the strongest besides the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, and the Great Sage Levelling Heaven, the Bull Demon King.

——To put it simply, it is the standard template of a protagonist who makes a comeback after 30 years of ups and downs.

Unfortunately, the last thing that this place lacks is people with the destiny of being the protagonist...

Even the "Seven-Day Great Sage", who was extremely arrogant, was suppressed by various big guys and lost his temper. After being suppressed, many things happened, which shook the ambition that Jiao Liu had been betting on, and he never recovered from it.

To put it in a more vivid way, he went from being the protagonist of a Chinese counterattack novel to the protagonist of a Japanese light novel.

In short, he is a Buddha, even more so than his sister Sun Wukong.

Oh, by the way, the Monkey King in the box garden is a female...

At this point, even if Jiang Liu heard about this kind of thing, he would not be disturbed anymore.

Jiao Liu was silent for a long time until he met Jiang Liu, and then he got rid of his previous decadence.

This is not because Jiang Liu is eloquent and turns into a caring big sister to guide the misguided teenagers...

He might have been better at talking nonsense in the past, but since he found that there were fewer and fewer people he couldn't beat, he felt that fists were more useful.

He just gave Jiao Liu one...or maybe many friendly face-breaking punches.

I don’t know if it’s because of Jiao Liu’s special physique, but the harder he hit, the more excited he became, and he was beaten awake from his discouragement and decadence.

Well, this is Jiang Liu’s perspective. In Jiao Liu’s opinion, the encounter between the two is more reasonable and passionate.

But in short, this Jiao Demon King learned a truth from Jiang Liu:

If you want to gain power, you must be self-disciplined!

No matter how badly he lost, no matter how miserable the ending of "Seven Days Great Sage" was, no matter how incomprehensible the choice of his sworn sister Sun Wukong was...

After all, what do those things have to do with him now?

There is only one thing he needs to do, and that is to constantly gain strength, turn the depression in his heart into the driving force to move forward, and break through the insurmountable barrier!

As long as he can reach above the sky and make all the gods and Buddhas in the sky bow their noble heads, then the answer he wants will naturally appear.

So he made two decisions.

The first is to pick up martial arts again, not the zombie-like training of the past few years, but like in the beginning, put himself in a desperate situation where he can only advance and not retreat, and practice hard to thoroughly temper the body.
