CHAPTER 321: CHAPTER 316 KILLING THE DEMON

The Nine Infant Island Territory is located in the deepest part of the West Sea, hailed as a forbidden land for humans in the Land of the West Sea.

At the periphery of the Nine Infant Island Territory, in different directions, warships sailed slowly.

Li Fan stood on the deck at the very front of the warship, his gaze looking forward. He could see colossal black pillars piercing the clouds, the sky above changing as it constantly bred destructive thunder, with occasional flashes of lightning falling, making the entire sea area extremely oppressive.

"Boom..." A bolt of lightning struck not far in front of the warship. Li Fan raised his eyes to the gloomy clouded sky, resembling an apocalypse.

And ahead, the islands were filled with relentless demonic aura.

This demonic aura was even stronger than back in Yun Meng Swamp, and also more oppressive.

"Everyone, we are now on the outskirts of the Nine Infant Island Domain, prepare for battle." The Great Elder of the West Emperor Palace, Murong Gang, said loudly from a warship above.

On the warships, the cultivators were in full battle readiness, all prepared to engage in combat.

"How come no demons are appearing from the sea?" Someone looked down at the rolling giant waves below, seeing no sea demons, and no sign of demons around, the silence was somewhat terrifying.

"They’re all on the demon islands ahead. Our movements must’ve been known long beforehand." Someone responded, explaining that the sea was filled with countless demons, all serving as spies for the enemy, making it impossible to hide.

The warships continued to move forward, and in the distance, demon islands came into view.

"Demon City." Someone said with some astonishment, looking at the demon islands. The islands sighted did not seem as desolate as imagined but instead had demon cities built on them, exuding a savage aura, with every demon island inhabited by groups of demons.

Li Fan’s eyes glimmered with a golden light, revealing the varying intensities of demonic aura over different demon islands.

In the distance, the demonic aura was most terrifying above a demon island surrounded by other demon islands. Under the golden gaze, the demonic aura appeared to be forming, covering the sky like claws and teeth on the horizon.

"Boom!"

In the dim sky, a beam of destructive thunder light descended from the sky, illuminating that demon island. Under the lightning, faintly visible were warships heading towards that demon island, among which was the warship of the West Emperor Palace Master Liu Zonglin.

Furthermore, warships in other directions bore sun and moon insignias, marking them as the Sun and Moon Dual Palace’s fleet, rushing towards the core demon island, which was their battlefield.

Above that demon island, the demonic aura coalesced into a demon shadow, followed by countless demons soaring into the sky from the island.

At the center of the Demon City, atop a magnificent demon fortress, a middle-aged man in black with wicked eyes gazed at the sky warships. Behind him were several figures, including the mermaid who invaded the West Emperor Island earlier, now respectfully standing behind the man in black.

"Let the others come out too."

The man in black raised his eyes to the sky. As the doomsday sky shrouded in dark clouds, a blazing sun suddenly shone through fiercely, piercing the darkness, prompting many demons to close their eyes from the terrifying heat, scorching the sky. The whole celestial plane turned bright from dark, with numerous demons looking up to see a sun hanging high in the sky.

And in front of the sun, stood an unparalleled figure.

In another direction, an entirely opposite aura arrived, an extreme chill descending as a bright moon hung in the sky.

Thus the sky over the Nine Infant Sea Domain displayed a bizarre scene of half sun, half moon.

The sun and moon hung in the sky, reflecting each other.

This stirred many cultivators; sun and moon shining together, this was the Sun and Moon Palace’s grand spectacle of old, wasn’t it?

"Seven Realms, peak of Myriad Phenomena Realm." Li Fan sensed the aura and secretly thought, the dominant forces of the West Sea are the peak stage cultivation masters of the Sun and Moon Dual Palace.

Such cultivation in the inland of the Da Li Dynasty would also make them mighty figures.

But this is also expected; without such power, how could they dominate the West Sea for many years and still stand at the pinnacle of the West Sea Sea Domain?

"Nine Infant, who’d have thought you were not entirely dead back then, and now have come to plague the West Sea again." A voice rang out from above the sky, belonging to the Sun Palace Master, with blazing sunlight piercing down, making the sky seem to burn around him.

"Just the two of you dare come here to die?" The voice of the middle-aged man in black was sharp, with wicked eyes radiating a contemptuous demeanor, seemingly disregarding even the Sun and Moon Dual Palace’s masters.

A decade ago, the Nine Infant Great Demon had ruled over the demons of the West Sea Sea Domain with overwhelming might, and was eventually assaulted and killed by the joint attack of top human cultivators.

And now, he appeared again, evidently having not been completely eradicated back then.

"Is this Nine Infant Great Demon so arrogant?" The human cultivators on the warships felt uneasy hearing the distant voice, as the Sun and Moon Dual Palace’s masters were legendary figures in the West Sea, rare to even catch a glimpse of.

Yet this Nine Infant beast regards them as beneath notice?

"Back then, it took all the top cultivators of the West Sea Sea Domain and Great Cultivators from inland to finally slay the Great Demon Nine Infant, but why could they not completely kill him?" Meng Hong on Li Fan’s ship whispered.

Will the human cultivators this time, attacking the demon lair, be sufficiently prepared?

Surely the human cultivators have confidence, otherwise, they wouldn’t have launched the attack here.

The warships continued advancing, with the top cultivators heading to the Central Demon Island, while their target was the surrounding demon cities.

The vast array of warships scattered through the sky, heading to different directions, with several warships following Li Fan’s heading towards a demon city ahead.

As they approached, the demonic aura in the demon city grew stronger, and countless demons took flight, formed into an army, ready and waiting, clearly having been prepared to welcome their arrival.

Batches of demons moved forward, spreading out, and in the highest space, was an Old Demon, Li Fan looked up at its true form, it was a enormous Golden Turtle.

"Buzz..." On the warship, figures soared into the sky, led by the Great Elder of the West Emperor Palace, Murong Gang, who took the lead, followed by the others.

The cultivators on the warship began flying forward themselves, while those below the Condensed Core Realm who couldn’t fly continued to follow the warship onward.

"Go."

Li Fan and his companions moved forward, he and Lu Yuan both stepped on flying swords, looking particularly graceful as they traveled together.

"Everyone, follow me to slay demons." Murong Gang shouted loudly, booming like thunder over the sea, and as the words fell, he charged ahead straight towards the peak of the Sixth Realm, the Golden Turtle Old Demon.

Simultaneously, those accompanying him were all elder-level figures from the West Emperor Palace; many of them Sixth Realm cultivators, leading the charge forward.

The war between humans and demons required no extra words.

This was the first battle of the action, also the showdown.

"Brother Yang." A voice came from behind Li Fan, and Yuwen Jing arrived on a flying sword saying, "The demons are at a distance, should we try and see how many we can slay with our swordplay?"

"Sure."

Li Fan answered, and those around could not help but wonder if the two were about to engage in a friendly sparring through their swordplay?

But to showcase sword dao by slaying demons, that was a good idea.

Yuwen Jing’s sword flew forward, unleashing as a golden light with wings that made it unstoppable, and no demon ahead could withstand it.

The Li Hen Sword was the same, shooting out like the wind, its rapid speed smashing through the heads of the attacking demon army, continuing its slaughter.

The human cultivators watched their swords in admiration.
