404: Don't waste time, let's hit the road.

"Illusion!"

The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's scream tore through the frozen air at the Peak of Kunlun, her voice shrill and filled with a self-hypnotic madness.

"This must be the most brilliant illusion! It's impossible for him alone to produce eleven Clones with equal combat power! This violates the rules of the Great Dao!"

Her words were like the only life-saving straw in a pitch-black, hopeless deep sea.

"Exactly!"

The devilish shadow, entirely shrouded in pitch-black heavy armor, roared along with her. Though his voice was loud, it clearly carried a tremble of bluster masking inner fear.

"He's bluffing! He's trying to scare us!"

"Attack together! As long as we break this illusion, he's dead!"

The twelve-winged Fallen Angel also regained his spirit. He stared fixedly at the twelve identical figures and spoke through gritted teeth.

"Pretentious reptile! I will tear apart your disguise with my own hands!"

They encouraged each other, forcibly suppressing the fear that was nearly overflowing from their hearts.

Five world-destroying surges of Demonic Qi and Devilish Qi soared into the sky once more, more violent and desperate than before!

They locked onto the twelve Li Hengs in front of them, their eyes filled with madness and determination.

The five Great Demon-Fiends at the Integration Stage, who had survived since ancient times, unleashed their life-source Divine Abilities without reservation at this moment!

"Hell Roaring Punch!"

The Heavy-Armored Demonic Figure took the lead. His fist, larger than a millstone and wrapped in pitch-black Devilish Qi capable of crushing stars, brought about a piercing sonic boom as it smashed fiercely toward the Li Heng in the very center!

"Nine Serenities Soul-Bewildering Realm!"

The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox shook her nine tails together. A pink, enchanting miasma instantly enveloped the field. Every bubble within the miasma reflected a paradise capable of making one's Divine Soul fall into depravity!

"Fallen Heaven Feather Blades!"

The Fallen Angel vibrated his twelve wings together. Billions of pitch-black feathers turned into the sharpest blades in the world, forming a deathly tornado to strangle everything!

"Ten Thousand Poisons Returning to Source!"

"Shadow Kill!"

The Poison Mist Giant and the Shadow Creature also struck at the same time. One transformed into a sea of deadly poison, while the other faded into the Void Realm, preparing to launch a fatal blow!

This was a combined strike from five great experts at the Body Integration Stage!

They believed that in the face of such absolute power, any illusion would shatter like a bubble!

However...

Facing this world-destroying scene, the playful smiles on the faces of the twelve Li Hengs did not change in the slightest.

"Finally making a move."

One of the Li Hengs yawned and lazily extended his palm to meet the earth-shattering punch from the Heavy-Armored Demonic Figure.

Bang!

The expected scene of the heavens collapsing and the earth rending did not occur.

That fist, capable of shattering a mountain range, was caught effortlessly by a seemingly ordinary palm.

All the power and all the Devilish Qi vanished without a trace, like a clay ox entering the sea.

The ferocity on the Heavy-Armored Demonic Figure's face instantly froze.

His pupils shrank into the most dangerous needlepoints!

How... is it possible?

"Just this much strength?"

The Li Heng who caught the fist curled his lip, his face full of disdain.

"You're not even worthy of scratching my itch."

He gave his wrist a flick.

Crack!

A crisp sound of bone snapping rang out.

The Heavy-Armored Demonic Figure's indestructible arm bone snapped upon impact!

"Ahhh!!!"

The intense pain made the Heavy-Armored Demonic Figure let out a pained roar, but before he could retreat, Li Heng grabbed him and hoisted him up.

"Hey, you over there, the one practicing boxing."

Li Heng casually threw the mountain-like devilish shadow to another version of himself who was currently warming up his wrists.

"Here's a sandbag for you. Don't break it."

"Got it!"

The second Li Heng grinned and caught the Heavy-Armored Demonic Figure. Without giving him any chance to react, he unleashed a fluid series of combination punches!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Dense striking sounds echoed across the mountain peak.

The Ancient Devilish Armor, claimed to be impervious to all techniques, continuously dented and cracked under Li Heng's fists like tin foil.

The Heavy-Armored Demonic Figure, a giant of the Demonic Path who once dominated a region, was now like a tattered sack, completely powerless to fight back, only able to let out bursts of pained groans.

"My turn!"

One Li Heng looked at the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox. Watching the overwhelming pink miasma, he simply gave a light puff of air.

Whoosh—

A light breeze brushed past.

The "Nine Serenities Soul-Bewildering Realm," which could cause even those at the Body Integration Stage to sink instantly, seemed to have met its nemesis. It instantly swirled back, wrapping the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox herself within it!

"Ah! No! My tails! My fur!"

The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox let out a terrified scream. In the illusion, she saw her nine proud, snow-white fox tails being burned charred black, becoming bald and ugly.

She rolled frantically on the ground, tearing at her magnificent palace dress, losing all her poise, no longer looking like a peerless enchantress.

On the other side.

The Fallen Angel's "Fallen Heaven Feather Blades" had also arrived.

Another Li Heng simply extended two fingers and drew a circle in front of him.

Hum!

A Black Tortoise Array Map composed of countless profound runes appeared out of thin air.

Clang! Clang!

Billions of feather blades struck the array map, only splashing a series of sparks, failing to leave even a single white mark.

"Is that it?"

That Li Heng shook his head, casually plucked a feather blade from the array map, and flicked it toward the Fallen Angel.

Swish!

The pitch-black feather blade flew back at a speed a hundred times faster than it had come!

Pfft!

The sound of flesh being torn.

The black feather blade accurately pierced through one of the Fallen Angel's wings, bringing with it a spray of black blood.

"Ah—!"

The Fallen Angel let out a cry of pain. Looking at the hole in his wing that was transparent from front to back, his eyes were filled with horror and confusion.

As for the final Poison Mist Giant and Shadow Creature.

Their end was even more miserable.

One Li Heng simply stomped his foot, and the creature that had faded into the shadows was shaken out of the shadows like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, held by an invisible giant hand, unable to move.

Another Li Heng opened his mouth toward the sea of poison.

"Wind, come!"

A fierce wind howled, rolling all the poison mist into a green sphere, then stuffed it back into the Poison Mist Giant's own body without a word.

Sizzle, sizzle—

The sound of corrosion made one's scalp tingle.

The Poison Mist Giant couldn't even let out a scream; his entire body rapidly dissolved within his own poison, twisting in agony.

In just a few seconds.

The combined strike of the five Great Demon-Fiends at the Integration Stage was completely dismantled.

Every member was injured.

They were in a wretched state.

At this moment, the last sliver of hope in their hearts was completely extinguished.

This was no illusion!

These twelve Li Hengs... every single one was real!

Every single one possessed terrifying combat power that crushed them!

Their Dao Hearts collapsed with a bang in the face of this cruel reality!

"Flee!"

The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox was the first to break free from the fear. She shrieked and transformed into a streak of white light, about to tear through space to escape!

A Li Heng was already smilingly blocking her path.

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave; the party has only just begun."

The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's body froze in mid-air.

She looked at the kind, smiling face before her, but what she felt was a despair deeper than the Nine Serenities Purgatory.

It's over.

The other four great demon-fiends also saw this scene, and all the light in their eyes instantly dimmed.

The twelve Li Hengs stepped forward unhurriedly, surrounding the five of them heavily.

Behind one Li Heng, an ancient black longsword slowly emerged, and endless Sword Intent soared into the sky.

Above one Li Heng's head, a patch of purple-black tribulation clouds was rapidly gathering, with world-destroying thunder rolling within.

Between one Li Heng's hands, countless golden runes appeared out of thin air, forming a divine and mysterious formation that suppressed the heavens.

One Li Heng's muscles and bones rang out in unison, his Qi and blood like a Dragon, and a hundred-zhang-tall Martial Dao True Body manifestation rose from the ground... twelve Li Hengs, twelve completely different yet equally terrifying powers, simultaneously locked onto the five prey in the field.

One of the Li Hengs picked his ear, breaking the death-like silence.

He looked at the five great demon-fiends, who had completely lost their will to fight and were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and waved his hand impatiently.

"Alright, don't waste time."

"Get on your way."
