348: Dragon Locks the Demon

Taylor stepped onto the stage, looking at the Dragon Demon before him.

This Dragon Demon had already entered the sight of their circle.

“Impressive. Though he’s only at the peak of a Demon King, he can fight above his rank. With this level, no wonder the Adult asked me to test his true capabilities,” Taylor thought to himself.

The Adult he spoke of was not the Sword Demon King; Lin Ye was not yet worthy of the Sword Demon King’s attention.

Rather, it was one of the responsible demons of this Duel Arena.

It was both a test and a way to reduce Lin Ye’s habit of exploiting loopholes.

“Demon Flame Sword Taylor.”

“Dragon Demon.”

The two demons announced their names to each other.

“Dragon Demon, you are very powerful. Are you interested in joining the Duel Arena?” Taylor asked.

This was the first time the Duel Arena had extended an olive branch to Lin Ye.

When encountering talent, the first priority was naturally to recruit them, and then consider Osai Demon God’s mission objectives.

Lin Ye secretly thought, ‘As expected.’

He had long anticipated this situation.

“Currently, I have no intention of joining any force,” Lin Ye said.

Demon Flame Sword did not press the issue; invitations were rarely smooth sailing, and he had seen it many times.

As a demonic sound rang out, the two immediately engaged.

Taylor lived up to his title of Demon Flame Sword; in an instant, the entire arena was engulfed in flames, and sword energy raged. His body even expanded to ten thousand meters.

“He’s actually this cautious,” Lin Ye frowned.

This Demon Flame Sword actually used the power of his Divine Kingdom from the start.

The biggest difference between a Demon God and a Demon King was the Divine Kingdom.

The power of the Divine Kingdom enveloped an area, suppressing Lin Ye tightly.

“It seems I have to expose a bit more of my strength.”

Lin Ye sighed lightly.

His body began to expand, reaching several thousand meters in an instant. Although not as large as the Demon Flame Sword, it was still majestic and extraordinary.

“Dragon Transformation, Fusion, Starry Sky Battle Body, Indestructible and Unextinguished…”

A series of enhancement skills activated, and black demonic flames (Indestructible and Unextinguished Demonicized Version) surged.

“This Dragon Demon still hid his strength!”

“That’s too much! He didn’t even expose his strength when fighting the previous Demon Gods.”

“He’s truly a sly old fox.”

The demons outside the arena were excited. This Dragon Demon’s limits were truly unpredictable, with one trick after another.

Demon Flame Sword’s expression slightly solidified. This aura was already close to his own.

“Still not enough.”

Lin Ye thought to himself.

The conversion of Star Power into demonic power inherently involved loss, and driving skills meant for Star Power with demonic power resulted in even more severe losses.

Therefore, he needed to add more intensity.

“Star, Space, and Time Laws!”

The power of the three fused laws erupted.

Lin Ye, who had only previously revealed the Star Law, instantly reached his peak.

His domain expelled the power of the Divine Kingdom; although it only occupied a small position within it, it reduced the Divine Kingdom’s suppression.

“Three laws fused?”

Demon Flame Sword’s pupils contracted.

The demons below the stage were also in an uproar.

“This Dragon Demon is not simple!”

“He hides too deeply.”

“He’s simply a peerless genius. Three laws fused, haven’t heard of that in millions of years, have we?”

“No wonder the Dragon Demon’s laws haven’t reached perfection; it turns out he chose the path of law Fusion.”

Demons also cultivate laws, so they naturally understood the hardship of the path of laws.

And the path of fusing laws was exclusive to geniuses.

Many demons suddenly realized why the Dragon Demon’s laws hadn’t reached perfection; sacrificing time to fuse laws required too much effort.

“He must be invited to join. A genius demon like him will certainly be an excellent combat force in the future.”

Many forces below the stage who had already been paying attention to Lin Ye had this thought.

Someone on a winning streak would naturally attract attention from all sides, especially a genius like the Dragon Demon.

It was just that the Dragon Demon was unusually aloof and usually stayed in the Duel Arena, otherwise, recruitment would have started long ago.

What? Can you compare to Demon God Osai’s recruitment?

But is there a conflict?

Everyone worked under Adult Osai, so Osai’s recruitment and their recruitment did not conflict.

Osai’s subordinates were also divided into small groups.

“Since we are inviting him to join, then this battle must not be lost,” Demon Flame Sword affirmed his belief.

Demons admired the strong. To subdue a demon, a fist was more effective than a sweet date.

Having made up his mind, Demon Flame Sword’s aura grew even more profound.

A several-thousand-meter sword energy appeared, heading straight for Lin Ye.

This probing sword energy was already enough to obliterate several Faith Gods.

Lin Ye, however, showed no panic. His Dragon Claw emerged, obliterating it with a single claw.

Immediately, two clones with identical auras appeared, forming a pincer attack around Taylor.

“Clone skill?”

Demon Flame Sword was slightly surprised but not overly so; many cultivated the path of clones.

Even among Demon Gods, most Demon Gods would cultivate one or two, even if they had no prior experience before becoming a Demon God.

Clones below the Demon God level could not stray far from the main body unless specially customized, nor could they cultivate independently.

Demon God level clones did not have these drawbacks, but if they were far away, they could not receive the blessings of the Divine Kingdom and their anchor.

Demon God level clones were generally much weaker than the main body.

But their purpose still could not be ignored.

“Can’t identify the main body? Watch me cleave it with one sword.”

Taylor gripped his greatsword, demonic power condensed, and the flame runes on the greatsword lit up.

“Flame Fang.”

The greatsword went towards one of the Lin Ye figures, regardless of whether it was the main body or a clone. He had no detection skills, so he just attacked one of them.

Better to break one finger than injure ten.

The Dragon Demon was skilled at recovery, so it might be better to disperse output and destroy one figure first.

After a clone was destroyed, if it was a low-level clone, it could be re-condensed, but a clone comparable to the main body could not be condensed again in a short period.

Lin Ye understood the purpose of his actions.

And so.

The figure chosen as the target transformed, becoming a divine dragon with monstrous demonic flames.

“Is this the Dragon Demon’s main body?”

“How is he different from other Abyssal Dragon Demons?”

“Perhaps he’s a mutated individual. No wonder he’s so extraordinary.”

Transforming into a dragon body was the ultimate form of Dragon Transformation, but Lin Ye rarely used it.

His skills and habits were all in human form; human form allowed him to exert his full strength.

But transforming into a divine dragon was not without its advantages; the biggest improvement, naturally, was his ability to take a beating.

The Flame Sword was tightly gripped by the Dragon Claw.

Dragon God Claw - Forbidden Grip.

A dense sealing power firmly locked the greatsword.

Lin Ye rarely used this move; after creating it, he mostly encountered situations where he was bullying weaker opponents, and there was no super-strong enemy for Lin Ye to forcefully restrain.

The only strong opponent he encountered—Purple Thunder King—was too far apart in strength, leaving him only able to flee, with no power to fight back.

But that didn’t mean this move wasn’t strong.

Its power lay in its one-on-one, single-target, strong control ability.

It was best used in dragon form.

Lin Ye, who had transformed into a Dragon Demon, not only sealed the greatsword with a pair of Dragon Claws, but his dragon body also coiled like a snake, seizing the opportunity to lock Taylor down.

Strong Dragon Locks Demon!

The other two Lin Ye figures simultaneously unleashed their strongest offensive skill, Dragon God Claw - Time-Space Tear.

That Dragon Claw, with one strike, tore through the sky, carrying an aura that sought to destroy everything, and attacked Taylor.

The situation on the field reversed in an instant, leaving the demons overwhelmed.
