CHAPTER 966: CHAPTER 735: SKY MOON DEMON KING

Li Yi didn’t spend too much time studying the Immortal Dao Battleship; he quickly immersed himself in Cultivation after getting accustomed to some situations.

However, the current Cultivation was different from before. He had already reached the Great Perfection of the Five Qi Realm. The next step was to form the Primordial Spirit Dharma, nourished by the Five Elements Qi. After his recent Cultivation at Base No. 8, the image of Li Yi’s Primordial Spirit Dharma was almost carved out.

With a final effort, the image of the Primordial Spirit Dharma would be successfully completed.

At that time, with the circulation of the Five Qi, he could leap into the Chao Yuan Realm.

"It’s best to break through to the Chao Yuan Realm before the next great war. This way, killing Great Demons and Mahayana Cultivators would be much easier, unlike before when they managed to escape."

With this thought, Li Yi sat down with his eyes closed, gathering Cosmic Energy once again. Around him, a Red Lotus slowly bloomed, and the Primordial Spirit Dharma, which sat atop the Red Lotus, holding a Treasure Seal and donned in a Five-Colored Cloud Robe, reappeared.

But this time, the appearance of the Primordial Spirit Dharma was more vivid and real, without the previous sense of illusion.

Meanwhile, he wasn’t the only Evolver on the Earth Defense Line putting forth effort into Cultivation.

To confront the enemies on the battlefield, everyone was trying their best to increase their strength. Under such pressure, many people’s realms advanced rapidly, in just a few days’ time.

Several people within the Earth Defense Line were Crossing Tribulation.

Their Evolution Methods had been cultivated to the Spirit Tribulation Realm, shedding their mortal shells and transforming into beings closer to energy bodies, naturally further advancing in power.

However, most people were dual practitioners, so looking at the Evolution Method alone wasn’t enough to judge one’s strength.

Fortunately, during Li Yi’s time at the Earth Defense Line, things remained relatively calm, and no major battles occurred.

But as everyone feared, the peaceful days wouldn’t last long, as the experts from the Demon God Realm and the Xuanxian Continent wouldn’t allow such a situation. They aimed to wear down Earth’s top combat strength, naturally wanting to achieve it in the shortest time possible.

Thus, the atmosphere of preparing for war was dense on the Earth Defense Line.

At this moment.

A few hundred kilometers from the Earth Defense Line, there were three abrupt great mountains.

The mountains were dug up and pockmarked with potholes, emitting billows of mighty Demon Qi.

This was the Demon God Realm’s outpost on Earth.

The three mountains represented three different Demon Kings. These three Demon Kings personally led a horde of demons to invade Earth, but upon truly arriving, they realized Earth was a land of four battlefields.

Upon realizing this, the three Demon Kings decisively abandoned the idea of dividing Earth because none of them wanted to become the next Earthling to be besieged.

But they couldn’t let the Evolvers grow unchecked.

So the best way was to treat Earthlings as enemies, allying with other forces for a gradual encirclement, while also better identifying which forces were Earth’s allies and which were enemies, and assessing the strength of their backing world.

But today.

A Flying Sword from the direction of Xuanxian Continent’s outpost flew over and landed directly inside one of the mountains.

A Great Demon called Bao Xiang received the message from this Flying Sword.

The Great Demon Bao Xiang was under the command of the Sky Moon Demon King. Upon receiving this Flying Sword’s message, he did not hesitate, immediately taking the message and heading towards the Demon King Cave.

At this moment within the Demon King Cave, radiance filled the place.

Bathed in countless streams of cool moonlight, it was as if a moon hid within the mountain. Despite being obscured by the mountain body, the cool moonlight remained brilliant, making it impossible to ignore.

And in the depths of this moonlight, lay a terrifying and vast Demon Qi.

Even the Great Demon Bao Xiang felt a jolt of dread in the face of this Demon Qi, involuntarily feeling a fear from deep within his bloodline rising from the bottom of his heart.

And the source of this terrifying Demon Qi was the Sky Moon Demon King from the Demon God Realm.

Everyone knew the true form of the Sky Moon Demon King was a Jade Rabbit, with a bloodline noble enough to rival the legendary Golden Crow. Among the many Demon Kings of the Demon God Realm, the Sky Moon Demon King was one of the most distinguished.

But in recent years, the Sky Moon Demon King had met with great misfortune.

Since getting involved with matters on Earth, the Great Demons under the Sky Moon Demon King fell one after the other, even the trusted left and right hand, the Great Demon Feng Yu, who wielded the Treasure Moon Bow and Black Gold Arrow, was slain on Earth, his body refined into a suit of Battle Armor.

Not to mention, the Sky Moon Demon King’s daughter was also besieged and killed by evil Earthlings, and even using the Demon King Order didn’t lead to her rescuing.

The deaths of his subordinates and the demise of his daughter had long formed an unending enmity between the Sky Moon Demon King and Earth.

Among all the Demon Kings, the Sky Moon Demon King was the one most eager to destroy Earth.

But before that, the Sky Moon Demon King had one more thing to do—find the murderer of the Demon King’s daughter.

"Demon King, Bao Xiang seeks an audience."

Outside the Demon King Cave, the Great Demon Bao Xiang said very respectfully.

In the cool moonlight-filled cavern, there was silence.

"Demon King, it’s a Flying Sword transmission from a Mahayana Cultivator in the Xuanxian Continent about the one who killed the young lady and took the Treasure Moon Bow and Black Gold Arrow, Li Yi has appeared."

The Great Demon Bao Xiang paused, then said this sentence under pressure.

Upon these words.

The moonlight covering the Demon King Cave instantly boiled over, like a calm sea suddenly rising with towering waves. The terrifying Demon Qi mixed with the moonlight stirred up the near Cosmic Energy.

The entire mountain shook, and even with the enhancement of demonic power, cracks inevitably appeared on the mountain body.

The might of the Sky Moon Demon King was too dreadful; a mere move could shake an entire world.

Such power, even the Human Immortal of the Xuanxian World could not compare.

And within the boiling moonlight, a tall, cool figure gradually emerged.

A man with silver hair and blood-red eyes, appearing extremely demonic, although humanoid in form, his Demon power suffocating even the Great Demon, undeniably proving his identity as an authentic Demon King.

Especially the terrifying Bloodline Power, which pressed the Great Demon to kneel and submit instinctively.

The level of the bloodline signifies the status and position of demons in the Demon God Realm. After all, demons with noble bloodlines are destined for greatness, while those with mixed bloodlines struggle to even advance into Great Demons, let alone grow into Sky Demons.

"Demon King."

The Great Demon Bao Xiang knelt on the ground and presented the Flying Sword in his hands.

"I knew it; that Li Yi would eventually show up on Earth.

For a Mahayana Cultivator of the Xuanxian Continent to use a Flying Sword transmission to inform me—they intend to make use of my hand to kill him? Hmph, a bunch of filthy creatures."

The Sky Moon Demon King retrieved the Flying Sword, reading the Divine Sense attached to it, and immediately understood the situation.

Surely, the Cultivators from the Xuanxian Continent had suffered a major loss with the Treasure Moon Bow in Li Yi’s hand; otherwise, why would they bother to inform me? If they could handle him, they would have long killed and taken the treasure themselves, so why would they extend such goodwill?

"Demon King, Li Yi has the Treasure Moon Bow and a Black Gold Arrow; I fear ordinary Great Demons are not his match," Bao Xiang said cautiously.

He wasn’t stupid.

If they revealed Li Yi’s whereabouts, they must have already fought him.

That a Mahayana Cultivator couldn’t take down this Li Yi clearly indicates that his strength has made great strides from before.

"The next battlefield will be opening soon. If Li Yi is on the other side, he will likely join the battlefield," the Sky Moon Demon King said, "This time, Bao Xiang, you will go to retrieve the Treasure Moon Bow and Black Gold Arrow. I will leave three strands of demonic power in you to assist in killing enemies."

"Thank you, Demon King," Bao Xiang responded with excitement.

"Do not be careless. I will personally oversee this battle; if the enemy appears and you can’t defeat him, I will personally intervene to ensure foolproof success."

The Sky Moon Demon King spoke coldly.

He no longer wished to rely on his lower subordinates to complete this matter to prevent further complications.

Bao Xiang’s mission was essentially to find Li Yi and lock onto the target.

Whether he could kill using the three mystical strands of power granted was unimportant.

"Demon King, wasn’t there an agreement?" Bao Xiang asked hesitantly.

In the Demon God Realm, Demon Kings and True Immortals from the Xuanxian Continent couldn’t make a move. This was both an agreement and a warning from a stronger existence, as when this level of power engages, it could truly collapse a world.

If not for such a warning.

The Sky Moon Demon King wouldn’t have crossed and destroyed all life on Earth long ago, rather than dragging it out until now.

"If you cannot defeat Li Yi even with the three strands of power I bestow, then my intervention becomes inevitable. At that point, consequences no longer matter," the Sky Moon Demon King’s blood-red eyes sparkled with murderous intent.

Bao Xiang immediately understood.
