51: Demon Lord

About a quarter of an hour later.

Boom!

Suddenly, a massive star plummeted from high in the sky, trailing a long fiery tail, piercing the heavens and smashing directly towards the Yanmo Abyss.

“Bastard, who is it?”

Yan Qi’s Face instantly changed, his heart filled with extreme rage. If that star were to hit the barrier, the entire barrier would collapse in an instant.

At that time, the area tens of thousands of miles around the Yanmo Abyss would be transformed into a living hell!

Just as he was about to have a Quasi-Emperor from the Great Yan Empire intercept it, dozens more falling stars appeared in the sky.

“Damn it!”

“If I find out which bastard did this, this Emperor will surely dismember him into a thousand pieces and extract his Soul to refine it for ten thousand years!”

Yan Qi’s Face became extremely grim, his voice filled with terrifying Killing Intent.

This caused many powerful individuals, who were secretly observing from the sky, to turn pale with fright and retreat far away, fearing they would become scapegoats.

Three Quasi-Emperors from the Great Yan Empire simultaneously took action, and one by one, the stars were shattered.

“Jie jie jie…”

A bizarre voice suddenly rang out.

The three Quasi-Emperors were struck as if by a heavy blow, all grunting in unison, their auras instantly becoming weak.

Boom!

A massive black claw, large enough to obscure the sky, reached out from the air, carrying a terrifying might, and directly grabbed towards the three Quasi-Emperors.

Along its path, Laws retreated, and space continuously shattered.

“Demon Lord!”

Yan Qi’s eyes suddenly narrowed. He had not expected that the one who attacked would actually be a Twelfth-Tier Demon Lord!

Clang—!

Just as Yan Qi was about to make his move, a clear sword hum reverberated through the heavens and earth.

Chii!

A brilliant sword light pierced through the air, instantly severing the black giant claw above the sky.

The sword light was incomparably sharp, cutting through the black giant claw without the slightest obstruction, and then even splitting the sky, creating a ten-thousand-foot-long Void crack.

“Ah! Who is it?!”

A shrill roar echoed between heaven and earth.

“Hiss!”

Countless people gasped in cold air.

A Demon Lord expert actually had one of his claws severed by a single sword strike!

Who was so fierce?

At this moment, ripples appeared in space, and Wu Ning appeared above the Yanmo Abyss in a single step.

He wore a purple-gold Emperor robe, held the Tai’a Emperor Sword, and was exceptionally heroic, noble yet dignified.

He waved his hand, collecting the black giant claw that had fallen from the sky, then looked up at the sky.

“You mongrel, get out here, and I’ll sever you with one sword strike!”

The world fell silent, all stunned by his domineering presence.

“Arrogant!”

A furious roar, like thunder, exploded.

Immediately after, the sky suddenly darkened, and a black Celestial Dog, ten thousand feet tall, tore through the Void Realm and appeared above the sky.

Wu Ning paused slightly. It really was a mongrel. He had just said it casually, thinking it might be a wolf.

The black Celestial Dog released terrifying pressure, its eyes revealing Killing Intent, staring fiercely at him: “Shameless Human, how dare you ambush this Emperor? Go to hell!”

Boom!

An incomparably terrifying aura erupted, and the black Celestial Dog extended another giant claw, striking directly at Wu Ning.

The Void Realm vibrated, instantly shattering into large areas of terrifying Void cracks.

“So strong!”

The Faces of countless powerful individuals changed drastically, feeling the aura of death from this single strike.

If they were affected, they would absolutely perish without a doubt!

The initial contempt they felt because the Celestial Dog’s giant claw was severed by a single sword strike now seemed so ridiculous.

A Great Emperor was still a Great Emperor, possessing the ability to destroy heaven and earth; even a casual strike could annihilate countless of them.

Wu Ning’s expression was calm; it was merely a Twelfth-Tier Early Stage Yao Beast.

Its strength was at most equivalent to a Great Emperor Third Heaven expert.

“I wonder what Twelfth-Tier dog meat tastes like…”

He muttered to himself, injecting his magical power into the Tai’a Emperor Sword, and struck at the Celestial Dog with a single sword.

At the same time, the Laws of time and space surged simultaneously around him.

The space-time around the Celestial Dog was instantly frozen, and its attack abruptly halted.

It remained motionless, as if a pause button had been pressed.

Chii!

A brilliant sword light pierced through the Celestial Dog’s body.

Wu Ning instantly appeared above its head, summoning the Chaos God Clock, preparing to annihilate its demon Soul.

“Time Law!”

Seeing the Celestial Dog’s attack solidify, Yan Qi and the other Great Emperors were all filled with shock.

Their gazes towards Wu Ning were filled with apprehension.

They had not expected him to actually master such a supreme Law as time.

“Presumptuous!”

“Human, stop this Emperor!”

Just then, an angry roar came from the northwest direction.

Dong—!

Wu Ning didn’t even blink, directly activating the Chaos God Clock, shattering the Celestial Dog’s demon Soul with a single strike.

“Ah! No… Demon Lord, save me!”

“Damn it!”

“This Emperor told you to stop, didn’t you hear me?!”

An incomparably terrifying aura descended, transforming into a majestic golden figure, its gaze disdainful, overshadowing the sky.

Yan Qi’s Face changed slightly; it was that old geezer from the Demon Domain!

“Hmph! If I stop just because you tell me to, wouldn’t this Young Master lose too much Face?”

Wu Ning snorted coldly, his movements not stopping in the slightest, activating the Chaos God Clock again, completely annihilating the Celestial Dog’s demon Soul.

“Human, you seek death!”

Bang!

The Demon Lord instantly flew into a rage, a massive golden sharp claw crushing space as it grabbed towards Wu Ning.

“I think it’s you who seeks death!”

Wu Ning put away the Celestial Dog’s corpse and struck back with a sword.

Clang!

The Tai’a Emperor Sword and the golden sharp claw collided violently.

Time seemed to stand still for a moment.

Then, terrifying fluctuations erupted, directly shattering ten thousand miles of space, revealing a massive Void black hole!

Wu Ning’s gaze narrowed slightly. The Tai’a Emperor Sword was a top-tier Emperor Armament, yet it hadn’t severed that golden sharp claw.

This claw was quite tough!

Little did he know, the Demon Lord was even more shocked than him. His pair of sharp claws had been tempered by him for hundreds of thousands of years, long becoming impervious to blades and swords, and resistant to water and fire. They possessed an unyielding sharpness, even capable of shattering ordinary Emperor Armaments.

He had not expected to suffer such a great loss in today’s collision; a corner of his sharp claw had actually shattered!

The Demon Lord instantly calmed down, his gaze solemn as he scrutinized Wu Ning.

“Human boy, who are you?”

“How dare you kill a Great Emperor of my Demon Domain? Are you looking for death?”

Wu Ning said indifferently: “Less nonsense. If you have the ability, let’s fight in the starry sky!”

This old fellow’s strength was considerable, possessing a Twelfth-Tier Late Stage cultivation, roughly equivalent to a Great Emperor Realm Eighth Heaven.

Wu Ning planned to use him to test his current strength.

However, a Great Emperor’s destructive power was too strong. After a major battle, it was inevitable to affect the ground, and even a little aftermath would annihilate countless living beings.

Although Wu Ning was merciless towards his enemies, he did not want to cause a large number of innocent casualties.

The Demon Lord’s expression was grim, but he glanced at the Tai’a Emperor Sword in Wu Ning’s hand, then at the surrounding Void Realm, and directly chose to leave.

“Human, this Emperor remembers you!”

Now, several Human Race Great Emperors were observing from here, and he did not want to be besieged.

Although these Humans usually fought fiercely among themselves, when facing their Yao Race, they would definitely temporarily set aside their past grievances and choose to attack together!

Millions of years ago, their Yao Race was driven to the current Demon Domain by the combined forces of the Human Race.
