149: Dharma Protector Yin

An old man with disheveled silver hair, holding a ghost-head saber, possessed a distinguished temperament and was rapidly approaching.

"Middle Stage Peak Great Grandmaster!"

Fairy Ni Chang frowned; although this old Demon Suppression Guard's Realm was not as high as hers, he actually gave her a very dangerous feeling.

"Commander Xing?"

Commander Zuo looked at the silver-haired old man in surprise. The two Demon Suppression Divisions had close dealings, so the higher-ups naturally all knew each other.

During the Demon Suppression Division's Genius selection tournament, Commander Xing had only been rated as Grade D, and he had only stepped into the Grandmaster Realm after the age of seventy.

He belonged to those who achieved success late in life.

However, after entering the Grandmaster Realm, he soared all the way, unobstructed, and in just ten years, he broke through from Grandmaster to Peak Great Grandmaster.

Though his body was old, his strength was inexhaustible.

Shortly after.

Step... step-step...

Zhang Tie arrived with over a hundred Demon Suppression Guards, quickly surrounding Commander Zuo and the others for protection, looking around vigilantly.

But there were over three hundred demons here, like a plague of locusts, dense and numerous, all surging in crazily.

Both sides immediately erupted into a great battle.

"Demoness, die!"

Commander Xing's silver hair flowed like a waterfall, and his ghost-head saber technique was masterful; in just over a dozen moves, he suppressed Fairy Ni Chang.

"Colleagues, please help me look after Shen Commander!"

"Rest assured, with us here, he will not die!"

Commander Zuo's eyes turned cold. Taking advantage of the final moments of the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art, he continued to charge toward Liu Sanlang.

Seven killing swords pierced the firmament, all unleashed at once, shaking the heavens and earth, intending to kill Liu Sanlang in one blow.

"Lord Demon Master, save me!"

Liu Sanlang watched as the seven killing swords struck toward him; if he were hit by this, he would at least be crippled if not dead.

Just at this moment, a mantis-faced demon suddenly flew out from among the horde of demons.

It was unremarkable in appearance, yet it emitted an Aura that made one's heart palpitate.

Its Realm had reached the Third Turn of the Nether Realm, and its strength was comparable to a Peak Great Grandmaster of the Human Race.

"He is now a member of our Demon Clan; it is not your turn to touch him. Scram!"

The Mantis Demon Master's voice was bone-chillingly cold. Following its roar, a dozen sickle-like rays of light shot out from the back of its blade, with a grim Aura.

The Third Turn Nether Realm demon's strength was too formidable, its Realm far exceeding Commander Zuo's; it was simply not something Commander Zuo could withstand at this moment.

Boom!

Crack!

With just one strike, the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art showed signs of cracking, and dozens of golden fissures appeared on his body.

"Mantis Fist, Mantis Breaking the Cocoon!"

The Mantis Demon Master roared, its body moving like a mantis, and its fist descending like Mount Tai.

This was the strongest armor-breaking killing move in the Mantis Fist.

This move mobilized the power of the entire body's muscles, bones, and blood into one fist, fierce and domineering.

It was created after he observed a Human Race Mantis Fist Grandmaster, and its power was increased by eighty percent over the original foundation.

"Seven Kill Sword Scripture, Strange Sword Confusing the Spirit!"

Commander Zuo's killing swords soared into the air. He had just stepped into the Peak Great Grandmaster Realm, and the gap between him and this demon was too large.

He could not fight it head-on.

He controlled the seven killing swords; six swords blocked the Mantis Demon Master, confusing its Divine Soul, while one sword struck toward Liu Sanlang.

"Shatter!"

However, the Mantis Demon Master swatted away all the killing swords with a casual strike, and as for the killing sword flying toward Liu Sanlang, it was also knocked down by it from a distance.

Mantis Breaking the Cocoon, striking directly at the vital point, hit Commander Zuo's body directly.

Only a 'crack' sound was heard.

His right arm was shattered instantly!

Blood dripped immediately!

Commander Zuo's face was twisted.

If he hadn't risked his life to shift his position just now, it probably wouldn't have been just one arm that disappeared, but his heart being crushed by that strike.

After stepping into the Peak Great Grandmaster Realm, there was a huge gap between every stage.

A Middle Stage Peak Great Grandmaster could easily defeat an Early Stage Peak Great Grandmaster.

Not to mention a powerful demon equivalent to a Peak Great Grandmaster at the Peak; that he could resist a few moves was entirely due to the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art, but that was also his limit.

The next time the Mantis Demon Master threw a punch, the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art would definitely shatter.

Intense pain washed over his nerves like a tide, but there was not a trace of fear or retreat in his eyes, only endless anger and determination.

"Damned demon, even if I die today, I will tear a piece of flesh off you. Kill!"

Commander Zuo's voice resonated like a great bell across this battlefield.

His only remaining left arm gripped the killing sword, intending to make a final struggle before the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art collapsed!

The Mantis Demon Master let out a strange laugh, sharp and grating, as if mocking Commander Zuo's overestimation of his own capabilities.

"Commander Zuo, retreat quickly! You are no match for that demon!"

Commander Xing shouted urgently, and after saying this, he intended to go to the rescue.

"Your opponent is me!"

Fairy Ni Chang laughed, the White Rainbow Sword Qi in her hand dancing incessantly, dragging Commander Xing down tightly.

"Scram!"

Commander Xing roared.

The ghost-head saber instantly erupted with the force of ten thousand jun, a thunderous saber slash forward, instantly repelling Fairy Ni Chang.

The Void Realm surged under his feet, and he dashed straight toward Commander Zuo.

However.

The next second.

Someone was faster than him.

Swoosh!

Three flying knives forged from mysterious gold erupted from the distance, tearing through the Void Realm, instantly overtaking Commander Zuo and striking toward the Mantis Demon Master.

"Mantis Armor Shield!"

The Mantis Demon Master reacted instantly, unleashing its strongest defensive measure.

Bang!

Puchi!

After pausing on the Mantis shield for a moment, the three flying knives directly sliced open three openings and pierced into the Mantis Demon Master's demon body.

Then.

It pierced through.

"Pfft!"

The Mantis Demon Master spat out a mouthful of black blood, its expression changing drastically.

It looked into the distance; the Aura of these flying knives was too terrifying.

The person coming was at the very least a Peerless Grandmaster.

The person who arrived was naturally Huangfu Chen.

After the people from the Si Province Demon Suppression Division learned of Commander Zuo's whereabouts, they had sent word immediately.

Huangfu Chen arrived beside Commander Zuo in an instant, his palm gripping Commander Zuo's left arm, his expression ugly: "Meridians completely severed, Lifespan exhausted!"

Within three days, he would undoubtedly die.

Even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal would find it hard to save him; this was not something human power could accomplish.

"Elder Huangfu?"

Commander Zuo coughed up blood frantically.

The Indestructible Vajra Divine Art also collapsed at this moment, and the Aura on his body rapidly diminished.

Shen Commander was shocked.

Wasn't Elder Huangfu guarding the Scripture Pavilion?

How could he be here?

Also, he actually heavily injured a Third Turn Nether Realm demon in one strike; this level of strength was too astonishing.

Was this still the lazy old man in his memory?

However, with Elder Huangfu's strength being so powerful, today's crisis should be solvable.

"Commander Zuo, this is Rejuvenation True Water; take it first, it can preserve a glimmer of life for you."

Huangfu Chen opened a jade bottle and handed it to Commander Zuo.

In his current state, he was no longer suitable for taking Medicinal Pills, as that would only accelerate his death.

This Rejuvenation True Water was a Grade One Heaven And Earth Treasure with gentle energy, which could bring a severely injured person on the verge of death back to life.

But it was useless for someone whose Lifespan was nearing its end.

It could only barely restore some vitality to hold on for another ten days or half a month.

"Take it with peace of mind, leave this place to me!"

"Thank you, Elder!"

Commander Zuo did not decline, drinking the Rejuvenation True Water in one gulp.

A warm current flowed through his body, repairing his Meridians.

Just at this time, Sun Commander and the others also arrived at this location.

Fairy Ni Chang's face was gloomy: "Liu Sanlang, didn't you say that apart from the Pacification Envoy, the strongest in the Demon Suppression Division were Peak Great Grandmasters?"

This was simply a major intelligence error.

A Peerless Grandmaster and a Peak Great Grandmaster were two different concepts.

Liu Sanlang was also puzzled.

He believed he knew the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division like the back of his hand; he hadn't expected that they were actually hiding a Peerless Grandmaster.

Wasn't the strongest person the Artifact Refining Hall Master, with a Middle Stage Peak Great Grandmaster cultivation?

How did a Peerless Grandmaster pop out?

Commander Xing and the others retreated instantly, arriving at Huangfu Chen's side.

"Commander Xing has met Senior Huangfu. To think the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division actually has an existence of your level; you are truly hiding your strength!"

Commander Xing's silver hair fluttered.

He had thought that it was the limit for the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division to send one or two Peak Great Grandmasters.

He hadn't expected a Peerless Grandmaster to come.

"Many thanks to all my colleagues from Si Province for traveling thousands of miles to reinforce us. Wait for me to kill the traitor and slay the demons, then I will drink with you all until we are drunk!"

Huangfu Chen nodded, his eyes looking coldly at Liu Sanlang in the distance; the source of everything came from him.

"To injure a Commander of our Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division to this extent, today, all of you shall stay behind to pay with your lives!"

Huangfu Chen's voice was bone-chilling, nine mysterious gold flying knives circling his body, the air trembling.

The nine mysterious gold flying knives simultaneously struck toward Liu Sanlang, the Myriad Sound Valley's Fairy Ni Chang, and the Mantis Demon Master.

However, before the flying knives could get close, they were knocked away by a mysterious force.

"To think that the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division was still hiding a Peerless Grandmaster; it seems I miscalculated..."

A soft sigh came from the Void Realm in the distance, and then a man in black robes emerged from the space.

"Greetings, Yin Protector!"

Liu Sanlang and Fairy Ni Chang were overjoyed.

The person behind the scenes had finally appeared; this Peerless Grandmaster's deterrence was too strong.

It was simply not something they could resist.

The Yunzhou Earth Fiend Hall had two great Protectors, whose strength was second only to the Hall Master.

Their strength was both at the Peerless Grandmaster level.

The Mantis Demon Master also slightly arched its hands.

Although the Earth Fiend Hall often secretly snatched away some demons, the two were currently in a cooperative stage.

As long as it was not excessive, it could only turn a blind eye.

This person's strength was far stronger than its own, so the due respect had to be given.

Peak Peerless Grandmaster!

Huangfu Chen's expression changed slightly.

He had just broken through to the Middle Stage Peerless Grandmaster a few years ago; wanting to confront this person was very difficult.

But now there was no retreat.

He had already anticipated the worst-case scenario before coming; fortunately, it was not an Extreme Realm Grandmaster.

There was still a chance to fight.

"Hehehe..."

"To think I caught a big fish. If you die, the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division should be very heartbroken, right!"

The black-robed Yin Protector let out a strange laugh, and his whole body suddenly convulsed.

His eyes instantly turned blood-red, like burning flames.

Fangs pierced through his lips and extended, blood droplets falling.

His skin cracked, black mist surged out, emitting a putrid stench.

His body expanded rapidly, muscles bulging, veins like snakes.

His hands became demonic claws, nails sharp.

His hair grew wildly, messy like a demon's mane.

A terrifying and hideous wolf head emerged, the Aura sinister, and a monstrous bloody mouth suddenly opened wide, swallowing toward the crowd of Demon Suppression Guards...
