427: Chapter 427 Killing the Demon Lord

The White-clothed boy did not get angry; instead, a faint smile curled his lips as he slowly stroked his sleeves and spoke:

"Last time you were lucky enough to escape. I wonder if you'll have such good luck today?"

He paused, his tone becoming increasingly arrogant: "By the way, that strange Divine Ability you used last time—why don't you bring it out again for me to see?"

"So that this Venerable can see if you'll manage to slip away from right under my nose again."

Chen Xuan looked up and asked with a smile: "Instead of blocking the exit to that Secret Realm, you've come specifically to find trouble with me. Aren't you afraid of losing one thing while trying to gain another, making the loss outweigh the gain?"

"Such a trivial matter is not for you to worry about."

The White-clothed boy sneered, "All living beings in this world will eventually end up like the dead city below—not a single soul left, not even chickens or dogs. No one shall escape."

Chen Xuan's gaze darkened as he quickly scanned the six great demons glaring at him from his side.

If the instant kill card in his hand was used unexpectedly, it would be enough to instantly kill the Desolate Night Wolf Venerable before him.

But if he didn't use the instant kill card, only a teleportation card could get him out of this dangerous situation.

Furthermore, after killing the Wolf Venerable, there were still six great demons surrounding them.

No...

Instantly killing a Demon Venerable in one move might directly intimidate the other great demons, saving a lot of trouble.

Just as he was calculating, Dongfang Li's voice quietly entered his ears through the heart lake:

"Peak Master Chen, in a moment I will activate the natal aura gifted by my Revered Master to forcibly stop this demon. At that time, please protect Fairy Yu Chan and break through the encirclement immediately."

"And what about you?" Chen Xuan immediately asked in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, Revered Master left me three strands of natal aura. I have my own ways to find an opportunity to escape. We will meet at the old place afterward."

As Dongfang Li finished speaking, she raised a finger, took out a warm storage ring, and gently handed it to Chen Xuan,

"Please trouble yourself to pass this storage ring to that girl Qing Yan in the future, Peak Master Chen."

Chen Xuan's heart sank; how could he not hear the underlying meaning?

Seeing that Chen Xuan had not taken the storage ring for a long time, Dongfang Li's elegant brows furrowed slightly.

"You should give it to her yourself. I'm quite a lazy person and don't like running errands for others."

The White-clothed boy had already grown impatient, his white hair fluttering lightly in the wind:

"Dilly-dallying... Since you refuse to strike first, then this Venerable will not be polite!"

Before his voice had even faded, the aura around his body suddenly surged!

From that seemingly youthful body, a terrifying pressure capable of crushing heaven and earth erupted.

The aura of a Tribulation Transcendence Realm Demon Venerable was like an invisible mountain, crashing down upon Chen Xuan and Dongfang Li!

The six great demons crouched low simultaneously, letting out whimpers of awe, not even daring to breathe loudly.

"Die!"

A cold light burst from the White-clothed boy's eyes. He held his right hand with fingers together like a sword, and a wisp of Demonic Power as black as ink condensed at his fingertip.

That was the Desolate Night Wolf Venerable's natal Divine Ability, [Nightfall Finger]. With one finger, he could pierce through stars and tear through space!

His figure flickered, and he actually crossed a distance of several zhang directly. With the power to destroy the world, his fingertip stabbed straight toward the center of Chen Xuan's brow!

This finger strike was extremely fast and ruthless, leaving Chen Xuan no room to react at all.

Dongfang Li's expression changed drastically, and she unhesitatingly activated the first strand of natal aura!

"Revered Master's Protection!"

Brilliant green light erupted around her, and a massive illusory figure of a Dharma Body emerged behind her. Its wings spread out, blocking the way in front of Chen Xuan in an attempt to stop this fatal finger strike.

However, how could the might of a Demon Venerable be easily blocked?

"Crack—"

Under the impact of the [Nightfall Finger], the Dharma Body illusion shattered inch by inch like fragile glass. The green light dimmed instantly, and Dongfang Li spat out a mouthful of blood, her figure staggering backward.

"Pavilion Master Dongfang!"

Fairy Yu Chan quickly supported her.

Chen Xuan glanced at Dongfang Li, who had helped him save a block card.

An instant kill card suddenly appeared, then dissipated into the air.

"Boom—!!!"

Above the Nine Heavens, a bolt of thunder that pierced through heaven and earth exploded without warning!

That lightning was not ordinary purple electricity, but an extreme, heart-palpitating dark gold, as if the Heavenly Dao was enraged and had sent down a heavenly punishment!

The dark golden pillar of thunder, carrying the power to destroy heaven and earth, struck precisely on the top of the White-clothed boy's head!

"What—!?"

The White-clothed boy didn't even have time to mount any defense before the pillar of thunder fell, completely swallowing him whole!

Of course, even if he had defended, it would have been in vain.

"Sizzle—!"

Thunderlight flashed violently. Flesh and bone were instantly vaporized under the power of the lightning; he couldn't even let out a single scream.

The next second, the dark golden pillar of thunder dissipated. In its place, only a wisp of curling green smoke remained, along with a demon core that was still slightly throbbing.

In an instant, the demonic body crumbled, the Demonic Qi dissipated, and his Soul Flew Away and Spirit Scattered.

A generation's Tribulation Demon Venerable, the Desolate Night Wolf Venerable, was actually killed instantly on the spot by a sudden bolt of heavenly thunder.

The six great demons who were originally eager to strike instantly froze in place, their pupils shrinking, their faces filled with extreme terror and shock.

Who am I? Where am I? What happened?

Not to mention them.

Even Dongfang Li and Fairy Yu Chan had their delicate little mouths slightly open, for a moment utterly stunned.

Chen Xuan made a gesture of sinking his Qi into his Dantian.

Then, with a casual wave, the demon core of the dignified Tribulation Demon Venerable flew into his hand.

Immediately after, a flat voice sounded: "A mere wild dog dares to bark here."

"Do you really think my Dao Seeking Sect has a good temper?"

The next moment!

Chen Xuan's gaze was like a cold blade, sweeping across the remaining six demons.

Four of them were the first to come to their senses, fully recognizing the fact that the Wolf Venerable had been suppressed and killed in one move. How could they dare to stay for even a moment longer?

They immediately turned into four streaks of panicked light, fleeing madly in all directions without looking back, only wishing to get as far away from this place as possible.

The remaining Green-Eyed Snake Demon and One-Horned Demonic Rhinoceros looked at each other. Their Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, they also immediately twisted their demonic bodies, wanting to escape.

"Miss Dongfang!"

Chen Xuan gave a light shout and raised his hand to grasp at the Void Realm.

In an instant, a long sword, entirely pitch-black, suddenly condensed into shape and fell into his palm. Its edge was not yet revealed, yet it had already caused the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to stagnate.

One must pick the softest persimmons to squeeze.

With one glance, he locked onto the Green-Eyed Snake Demon, who was already injured and whose aura was fluctuating the most.

He lightly raised his wrist and slashed horizontally with his sword!

There was no earth-shattering sword hum, no violent spiritual light—only a pitch-black sword rainbow, condensed to the extreme, shot through the air, directly locking onto the snake demon's path of retreat!

This strike wasn't meant to be a certain kill, but it accurately interrupted its escaping Qi. Its Demonic Power stagnated, and its escape light instantly collapsed.

The Green-Eyed Snake Demon was terrified—if it blocked, its escape would be hindered; if it didn't block, its demonic body wouldn't be able to withstand the sharpness of this sword strike at all!

At the moment of life and death, it could only abruptly stop its flight. Its demonic body coiled, its green eyes burst with fierce light, and it gritted its teeth to take this sword strike head-on!

"Miss Dongfang!"

Chen Xuan shouted again.

Dongfang Li immediately understood. Her jade hands flew as she formed hand seals. The Carp Leaping Wave Beast beneath her feet flicked its tail in response. A large amount of water light surged wildly from the Void Realm, instantly condensing into a heavy water prison, completely sealing off the Green-Eyed Snake Demon's path of retreat!

With Chen Xuan's killing sword in front and the water prison trapping it from behind, the Green-Eyed Snake Demon was instantly plunged into a desperate situation!

One person and one beast, one attacking and one trapping, coordinated seamlessly.

Chen Xuan pushed his sword momentum again. The black sword light surged like the Heavenly River flowing backward, pressing directly onto the snake demon's head. Dongfang Li poured her magic power into the water prison, the water ripples turning into sharp ice blades that slashed from all directions!

Without the slightest hesitation, a clean and efficient righteous two-on-one battle unfolded.

The Green-Eyed Snake Demon's shrill hiss resounded through the heavens and earth, only to be completely suppressed and killed within the sword light and ice blades!
