Chapter 286: Battling Against the Holy Demon

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The night was dark, and the moon was obscured by the black clouds.

For some reason, the mist started to disperse. Twinkling stars could be seen in the night sky.

The Ten Spirits Sacrificial Formation which stretched over the entire Venerate Demon Island had already been destroyed, and the island was caked in dried blood.

The soil emitted a soft purple glow, and it also released a bewitching aura.

The Six-Winged Dragon Emperor circled around in the sky. Crimson flames flickered around its body, and it illuminated a large area of the sky.

An Lin, Da Bai, Xiao Chou, and both the Gundams were all standing on a hovering black brick. Their expressions were solemn as they looked down toward Venerate Demon Island.

The trap prepared by Gundam One and Gundam Two was already ready. Right now, they were just waiting for the Holy Demon to break out of its seal.

At its peak, the Holy Demon’s strength was equal to that of Return to Void Stage cultivators. Even when casting one’s eyes over the entire Tai Chu Continent, such strength would still be classified as part of the upper echelon.

At that time, Shen Yin was a supreme prodigy of the Half-Step Return to Void Stage. After using countless trump cards, however, she still wasn’t able to slay the Holy Demon. In the end, she was barely able to seal it within the Purple Mist Mountain. From this, it could be seen just how terrifying the Holy Demon was back then.

Now, the Holy Demon finally had a chance to escape after being sealed away for almost ten thousand years. Admittedly, it would be at its weakest when it did eventually break out. However, its strength would still be unfathomable.

Thus, An Lin and the others were still extremely unsure of whether they could defeat the Holy Demon or not.

At some point in time, nine golden stars aligned. They were like a golden sword which hung in the sky.

Boom…

The purple island suddenly started tremoring lightly.

“The time has arrived!” An Lin exclaimed. He was gripped with nervousness.

The power of the stars was aroused by some mysterious energy from the purple island, and the nine golden stars shone even brighter. A golden beam descended from the sky and slowly fused into Venerate Demon Island.

Crack…

As if some shackle had been broken, the purple glow of Venerate Demon Island suddenly dimmed. Immediately afterward, a beam of purple light burst into the sky. It shot through the clouds and appeared as if it were going to break through this expanse of heaven and earth.

“Holy f*ck! This is clearly a scene that unfolds when a Great Demon King is about to appear!” An Lin clicked his tongue in wonder. His entire body tensed up, and he gazed at the beam of purple light intently.

The purple glow disappeared and a humanoid figure appeared on the ground.

Its skin was a deep shade of purple, and its eyes were dark and profound, much like a bottomless black hole. A purple halo hovered above its head and was emitting a dazzling divine glow.

“His Holy Majesty…” The Six-Winged Dragon Emperor shuddered once he saw the Holy Demon resurrected. It couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe and veneration. This was a feeling which naturally arose when a low-level being encountered a high-level being.

The Holy Demon raised its head and looked toward the beings hovering in the sky. Its expression didn’t change a single bit.

“Begin the battle!” An Lin suddenly cried, “Electromagnetic Cannons, launch!”

Boom!

The balls of lightning which were hidden under the earth moved to under the Holy Demon’s feet before they exploded.

The explosion of lightning instantly annihilated thousands of feet of earth. The entire region became a vast expanse of lightning hell.

The Six-Winged Dragon Emperor opened its jaws and spat a column of crimson flames toward the Holy Demon. These flames were alike flames of divine punishment, and they melted large patches of land.

At the same time, Gundam One and Gundam Two’s Photovoltaic Cannons also shot toward the Holy Demon. Xiao Chou’s black flames, Da Bai’s wind blades, and An Lin’s Mountain Quaking Lightning Fist all hurtled toward the Holy Demon.

Boom—!

The devastating attacks shook the entire island and caused the sea to churn.

The explosion of energy illuminated heaven and earth and made it appear as if a blazing sun had appeared in the night sky.

The Six-Winged Dragon Emperor shivered as it saw the devastating nature of these concentrated attacks.

It knew that if it faced such attacks, even ten lives wouldn’t be enough to guarantee its survival.

Whoosh!

Like a bolt of lightning, a streak of purple light instantly arrived before the Six-Winged Dragon Emperor.

The Six-Winged Dragon Emperor’s pupils contracted. It was the Holy Demon! Even though it was wounded and bleeding purple blood profusely, its vast and boundless aura was climbing rapidly. Right now, its aura had already reached an extremely terrifying level.

The Holy Demon was shrouded in a purple airstream, and it instantly penetrated through the Six-Winged Dragon Emperor’s body.

“Roar!”

The Six-Winged Dragon Emperor howled in anguish. A gaping hole was ripped into its body and blood sprayed through the sky.

It was too fast!

It was so fast that the Six-Winged Dragon Emperor didn’t even have time to defend!

Whoosh!

The Holy Demon didn’t pause, and it once again became a streak of purple light. This time, it shot toward the Six-Winged Dragon Emperor’s head!

Boom!

The streak of purple light crashed into a blue halo, causing violent ripples of energy to erupt outwards.

One of the Gundams had made a move. It activated its Ionic Deprivation Protection Formation and finally managed to block the Holy Demon’s attacks.

Just as the protection formation started to fracture, the other Gundam slashed toward the Holy Demon with its particle sword.

The Holy Demon bent backward and easily dodged this slash.

“Purple Star Bloodline Artificial Intelligence Weapon?”

The Holy Demon spoke in a calm manner, and a look of surprise spread across its face.

Then, it turned its gaze toward the Six-Winged Dragon Emperor. “You went against my will. You sought refuge with the enemy and destroyed the Ten Spirits Sacrificial Formation. The punishment is death!”

As the Holy Demon spoke, the purple halo above its head suddenly enlarged to double its original size.

A suffocating might was wantonly released from its body. Bracelet-like purple halos also started to appear around both its wrists.

It raised its hand then smashed its fist down!

The purple figure twisted, and its heavy fist smashed down toward the Ionic Deprivation Protection Formation.

Cracks appeared all over the Ionic Deprivation Protection Formation. Then, this screen of blue light shattered like a sheet of glass.

After shattering the protection formation, the Holy Demon’s fist crashed into the Six-Winged Dragon Emperor’s head.

The crushing power of this fist immediately concussed the Six-Winged Dragon Emperor.

The Dragon Emperor’s head caved in and white foam frothed from its mouth. At the moment that the Holy Demon performed this strike, a white streak of light carved out an extremely strange path and cut toward its neck from an unusual angle.

The expression of the Holy Demon—who had been extremely calm and collected this entire time—suddenly changed, and it burst backward hastily!

Purple blood once again sprayed into the sky. A noticeable gash appeared on the Holy Demon’s neck.

At this moment, a mask-wearing monkey appeared behind the Holy Demon. The monkey’s silver staff tore through the air and smashed down toward the demon’s head!

The Holy Demon turned around and its fist struck toward the large silver staff.

Boom!

An overwhelming force cannoned into Xiao Chou, causing him to spit blood and fly backward.

At this moment, heaven and earth suddenly became pitch-black and silent. All that could be seen was a black sword projection which possessed the power of absolute destruction. This sword projection slashed into the Holy Demon’s back!

After using the Wind Sword, An Lin resolutely used the second technique of the Six Strikes of the War God—Shadow Tiger!

The black sword projection stretched thousands of feet, and it descended silently. It was as if it was going to sever and swallow all matter.

There was a loud hiss and the purple figure fled into the distance frantically. A cloud of blood burst from its body.

Light reappeared in this heaven and earth, and the Holy Demon appeared a thousand meters away from An Lin. An expression of shock and fright was etched upon its face as it looked toward An Lin.

There was a nasty gash running from its head to its waist, and it was as if its body had almost been ripped into two halves. Purple blood poured from this wound and dripped onto the floor non-stop.

If ordinary cultivators suffered such severe wounds, they would definitely die.

However, the Holy Demon was merely gasping for breath. It was on high alert as it stared at An Lin.

“I underestimated you. I didn’t expect for a Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator to be able to wield such fearsome sword techniques…”

The Holy Demon had to admit, this cultivator before it almost caused it to suffer an unexpected defeat.

An Lin was also astonished. Just then, the demonic dragon had absorbed the full brunt of the Holy Demon’s attacks, and he and Xiao Chou had utilized their full strength and launched a surprise attack. Under such circumstances, even beings of the Soul Formation Final Stage would die immediately.

However, the reaction time of this Holy Demon was insane. Not only did it dodge the Wind Sword, it even managed to half-dodge the Shadow Tiger technique…

An Lin swallowed a Blood Spirit Pill and started recovering.

“Gundam One, Gundam Two, go!”

The two Gundams once again lunged at the severely wounded Holy Demon.

This time, Gundam One and Gundam Two were finally able to hold their own against the Holy Demon. They exchanged a flurry of strikes.

After absorbing the Blood Spirit Pill, An Lin recovered all the energy that he had expended on the Six Strikes of the War God.

“Hehe, so what if the Holy Demon is strong. We’ll take turns fighting it and tire it to death!”

A confident expression appeared on his face. He raised his sword and once again charged toward the Holy Demon.
