159: Chu Yan returns!
In the Years Cave, near the passageway connecting the Demon Realm and the Years Cave, seven Demon Lords sat cross-legged with grim expressions, healing their wounds.
After a long time, the Heavenly Wing Demon Lord opened his eyes and sighed, "I fear these wounds will not heal for hundreds or thousands of years. The person who attacked is undoubtedly in the Opening Heaven Realm!"
Thinking of it, he felt a lingering fear. It was fortunate that the other party did not intend to kill them; otherwise, none of them would have escaped!
"Have we been set up by the Netherworld Hell?" the Demon Lord Moluo said in a deep voice.
If the Human Realm had such a powerful expert, the Hell Gate should have known about it!
They clearly knew but didn't discourage them—wasn't that setting them up?
"It doesn't seem like it. Whether it is the Netherworld Hell or those Ancient Ancestors, they were equally shocked by the appearance of that mysterious existence. It is highly likely that they were also unaware that an Opening Heaven Realm expert was stationed here!"
"Otherwise, they probably wouldn't have dared to emerge at all!"
A Demon Lord shook his head, "Then what do we do now? Four Demon Lords have fallen, and the mirror of the heavens has been snatched away by the other party. Should we inform the Demon Lords stationed in the Demon Realm?"
This failure was too great a loss for their Demon Realm; they had to find a way to make up for it immediately!
"What is the use of informing them?"
"Even if they came, wouldn't it just be a dead end?"
"Facing a true Opening Heaven Realm expert, even if those old antiques who are infinitely close to the Opening Heaven Realm have the strength to fight, they will ultimately end up falling. Moreover, now that the mirror of the heavens has fallen into the other party's hands, those old antiques will be even less of a match. Coming here would be of no avail!"
Originally, the existence of the mirror of the heavens was to deter the experts of the Netherworld Hell and those Ancient Ancestors of the Forbidden Ground, yet it was actually snatched away by someone else just like that!
"Then what should we do? Are we really helpless?"
They had finally managed to enter the Human Realm, but not only did they suffer heavy losses, they couldn't even enjoy all the delicacies before them. Just thinking about it made them feel stifled!
When had they, the Demon Race, ever suffered such humiliation?
"For now, we can only avoid that mysterious expert!"
"If only our Demon Realm had an Opening Heaven Realm expert, we wouldn't have to fear him!"
Truly, having greater strength is overwhelming!
"I wonder if those old antiques in our Demon Realm can open the passage between the Human Realm and the Netherworld Hell? If we could let those Opening Heaven Realm experts from the Netherworld Hell cross over, dealing with the other party might be easy!"
"There is no way. Without the cultivation of the Opening Heaven Realm, it is impossible to break through the passage between the two realms!"
The Demon Lords all sighed. For them now, there was nothing left to do but wait for an opportunity!
But they didn't know how long it would take for that opportunity to arrive!
"However, that mysterious existence did not continue to hunt us down, which means he tacitly allows us to appear in the Human Realm!"
"Moreover, the barrier he set up only blocks experts above the Devil Emperor, and does not affect other Demon Race members. This also shows the other party's intention from another perspective!"
"We of the Demon Race can enter the barrier, but we cannot cross his boundaries!"
"He must want those in the Human Realm to solve their own problems!"
The six Demon Lords discussed it. Since they could not enter, they would let the weaker members of the Demon Race enter. In this way, it probably wouldn't provoke the other party's resentment!
Following their order, the Demon Race members at the Martial Saint Rank and below once again braced themselves and entered the barrier in droves.
Just as the Demon Lords had expected, even though the Demon Race flooded in, Long Yuan did not make a move.
Instead, the Chu Family led all the Martial Gods and Martial Saints to engage in a fierce confrontation with the Demon Race!
Even though the number of Martial Gods within the barrier was already significant, the number of the Demon Race was not only vast, but many Demon Saints were also incredibly powerful in combat.
After all, the accumulation of the Demon Race was too long, and Geniuses were as numerous as ox hair!
Moreover, many among them were descendants of Demon Lords, possessing the Demon Race Bloodline, which was comparable to a Divine Body.
Under these various circumstances, even with the Chu Family leading many Martial Gods, the battle situation fell into a stalemate!
However, Long Yuan had Long Aotian keep an eye on the battlefield. If the Human Realm side truly fell into a desperate situation, he would have him secretly intervene to change the course of the battle!
In any case, the power to speak was in his own hands; wasn't it up to him to decide how to change the rules?
So, there might be danger, but it wouldn't lead to total annihilation!
At this moment, Long Yuan was absorbing the 30,000 years of cultivation rewarded by the System previously. Under the blessing of the Family Rank, this amounted to 2.7 million years!
Therefore, the time required for absorption was also quite long!
But just at this moment, a voice suddenly reached Long Yuan's ears.
"Junior Chu Yan has returned to the Family. I request the Beast God to open the barrier!"
"Hmm? This kid Chu Yan has returned?"
Long Yuan opened his eyes, his golden pupils looking outside the barrier.
At this moment, Chu Yan was fighting several Demon Gods. His body was surging with raging flames, igniting light that reached ten thousand zhang, and behind him, the nine great Heavenly Fires transformed into floating fire rings, with a momentum that shook the heavens!
He threw a punch of fire, instantly blowing up the head of a Demon God.
Then, a Dragon's roar sounded, and a golden Dragon circled above his head. Controlling the Dragon's mouth, it lunged out and swallowed a Demon God into its belly in one bite.
That was the Dragon-body Divine Artifact he had obtained from the first Sect Leader of the Hell Gate, Wu Fu.
"The opponent is strong, do not hold back!" Demon Gods around him roared.
Several Demon Gods had surging Devilish Qi covering the sky and sun, transforming into various attack forms to strike at Chu Yan.
The latter's fists bloomed with firelight, and he killed his way in and out among the several Demon Gods.
He did not use the power of the Divine Fire; in Chu Yan's eyes, these Demon Gods were not yet qualified to make him use the Divine Fire!
Firelight soared into the sky, and Devilish Qi cut across.
Chu Yan flashed and appeared in front of a Heavenly Wing Demon Race member, swinging his clenched fist and slamming it forward.
With a boom, the Void Realm for tens of thousands of meters around completely collapsed, and a terrifying void storm surged out, engulfing everything around!
Facing this great Martial God expert who had just killed several of their Demon Gods, the Wing Demon did not dare to take this blow head-on.
The Wing Demon's huge wings flapped, and he instantly left his original position.
But even so, one of his wings was still burned to ashes by the other party!
Just at this moment, several Demon Gods behind him attacked simultaneously.
Their demonic forms transformed into various attacks, striking at Chu Yan's vital points.
One of the Demon Race members even punched through Chu Yan's back, and the terrifying Devilish Qi directly pierced through his body.
However, Chu Yan acted as if he were not injured at all, and not a drop of blood flowed out.
It could be seen that on the wound that had been pierced, raging white flames were burning, and then it gradually healed up.
The Demon Race member who had pierced through his body had his expression change suddenly, and he roared, "Everyone be careful, the opponent's body can turn into fire!"
Because he had clearly felt just a moment before his attack made contact with the opponent, the opponent's body had first turned into fire, dodging his attack!
But how could this be possible?
How could a human body turn into fire to dodge an attack?
Just as he was shocked in his heart, Chu Yan's fist swung horizontally, and with colorful firelight, he swept through with one punch, once again blowing up his head!
"Kill!" Chu Yan let out a low roar and once again attacked the other Demon Race members around him.
Fists collided, flames and Devilish Qi surged, divine light shone across the Nine Heavens, and Devilish Qi raged, swallowing the four poles!
Every collision erupted with an earth-shattering sound, and terrifying energy echoed between heaven and earth!
