Chapter 587: Chapter 495: A Fierce Battle with a Dragon Palace General_2

Only the hefty Pointed-Tooth Fish Demon remained, fixating intently in front of Chi Yang and suddenly let out a low growl, "You’ve broken the rules!"

Chi Yang Elder silently glanced around.

This place was the Immortal’s Cave.

He lifted his head and brought out the Iron Command Token, nonchalantly saying, "Who knows?"

The next moment, the command token was like a mountain.

The palm-sized token suddenly pressed the Fish Demon to the ground, as heavy as the five sacred mountains, crushing its scales as if to bury into its flesh.

"Old Liu, butcher the fish!"

Chi Yang let out a similarly wild laugh, only to pause briefly, look back, and saw Liu Shiqian, with the scimitar in his hand dispersing into a green light, tottering toward him and then collapsing to the ground with a thud.

Thump.

The habitual silence of the other party led everyone to misjudge the severity of his injuries.

...

Liu Shiqian’s arms were bulging with veins, his face expressionless as he tried to push himself up again, struggling to clutch the green light and reform it into the crescent scimitar, only to fall back once more.

A look of darkness and guilt flashed across his face.

Despite Sect Master Shen being prepared and using his numbers to bully the weaker, there was still a problem on his end.

Chi Yang alone was no match for this Fish Demon General leading the demonic army.

"Heh... ha..."

The Fish Demon too cast its gaze over, its previous despair replaced by a thrill of surprise, and it emitted an excited laugh.

Even its body, suppressed by the Iron Command Token, began to shake slowly.

With its aura growing again, its knees trembling uncontrollably, it still managed to steadily rise, as if bearing mountains on its shoulders. It took an incredibly difficult step forward.

Boom—

The great hall shook with a crack, as if on the verge of total collapse.

"Damn it," the Chi Yang Elder suddenly panicked; it wasn’t that he lacked other offensive means.

But it was absolutely impossible for him to slay the Fish Demon before it could get close to Liu Shiqian.

All he could do was to once again urge forth that rainbow light, pouring its essence into the Iron Command Token in an attempt to suppress the Fish Demon once more.

Crack crack! Crack crack!

Under the suppression of that Iron Command Token, the Fish Demon seemed to shrink several meters, its bones shattering.

Yet, as a battle-hardened General of the Dragon Palace, it knew this was its only chance.

Tapping into all its demonic power and enduring the intense agony, it stepped forward, its target not Liu Shiqian, but the exit behind him.

As for the Pure Moon Sect Elder, he was merely a merit to be claimed on the way out, a scapegoat for its crimes.

"Huff..."

The gap between Chi Yang Elder and the Fish Demon wasn’t significant, they could be considered on the same level, but protecting another powerless cultivator in front of it required far superior strength.

It was only at this moment that he finally called out in panic, "Sect Master Shen, do you have any other Spirit Puppets? Save this old man!"

But Shen Yi’s response made his heart sink.

Only to hear him say softly, "There are none left."

Like Ke Shisan’s Town Stone, against these demons comparable to opening two grand cities in cultivation, they were utterly useless.

"There are none left, good... no more... Sect Master Shen... do you realize... you were really scaring me to death..." the Fish Demon seemed to cry and laugh at the same time, its voice trembling.

In such a life-and-death moment, even with its composure, it couldn’t help revealing its true, ugly nature.

Who would have thought that a cultivator who seemed to be at the Late Stage of Returning Void could pull out two terrifying Spirit Puppets sufficient to shake top powers out of the blue?

"Since you have none left... then I will not hold back!"

Just as the Iron Command Token was about to crush its spine, the Fish Demon finally reached Liu Shiqian’s side, its nearly twisted face revealing a hint of greed and ferocity.

It bent its massive body, looming over Liu Shiqian lying on the ground, then its enormous palm ferociously swung out!

But it failed to touch Liu Shiqian’s body. The palm wind merely stirred up his ink robe.

Shen Yi stood in front of the stoic elder, also extending his hand towards the Fish Demon, the motion gentle, devoid of any ripples of energy, his distinct fingers raised slightly.

It was less an attack and more a reminder for the Fish Demon to halt.

...

Chi Yang’s eyes widened in astonishment; he had never considered that without the protection of the Spirit Puppets, Shen Yi would dare to again stand before the Fish Demon.

He had even been reluctant to let Shen Yi take away Old Liu.

It was because in front of such terrifying demons, a cultivator at the Late Stage of Returning Void was simply too weak, so weak that any trivial action could lead to his demise.

Liu Shiqian was also stunned.

Apart from not quite understanding why Sect Master Shen would risk his life to help, there was another even more important reason...

At the moment that palm was raised.

The Fish Demon indeed came to a halt.

This matter is really hard for people to understand.

A large and a small figure appeared as if frozen in place, the Fish Demon’s gaze dull as it stared at Shen Yi.

In an instant, that body, which even the Iron Command Token had failed to crush, actually thunderously fell to the ground on its knees!

Accompanied by a faint puchi sound.

The body of the Fish Demon now had numerous large holes, torrents of blood gushed out like springs, and its whole appearance suddenly became extremely wretched.

Fortunately, this wretched state did not last too long.

In the time it took for a few breaths, as if an invisible giant blade had slashed down, the Fish Demon was cut into more than ten pieces, pattering down onto the ground.

Those round eyes that refused to close in death swelled even more.

They contained a scene invisible to others.

Among the pitch-black night sky, stars sprawled across the heavens.

Previously, while bearing the Iron Command Token and exerting all its might, the Fish Demon had scattered the stars, causing the entire sky to darken, as if it had plunged into dead silence.

And when the light dissipated, in this dead silence,

A vermilion Dao Palace appeared, both obscure and evident.

Below the Immeasurable Demon Emperor Palace,

That elongated figure floated in the sky, dressed in the simple Guixu Immortal Armor, covering the young man’s body like a divine general.

Black hair fluttering, those eyes occupied by a purple tone, shone brighter than the stars that came before.

He held the Dragon Lance in his hand.

Blood droplets followed the tip of the lance, staining the night sky with a vivid blush.

Until the end,

The night, like a tide, receded, and that blush gradually solidified, turning into a dazzling blood symbol in the center of a pale palm.

This was the last scene the Fish Demon saw in its vision.

"Huff."

Shen Yi slowly flexed his fingers, withdrawing his hand, hiding the trembling fingertips in his sleeve as if they were exhausted.

Indeed, Tianyan Forty-Nine was not particularly profound. Even if it reached the Complete Realm, it could still be seen through by such a formidable demon and could not serve as a killing strike.

In the end, it had to rely on the Wusheng Palm.

His Ink Robe billowing, suddenly displayed a layer of dark red, and the faint smell of blood was not very noticeable under the rich scent of Monster Blood.

Shen Yi’s face, already pale, now appeared slightly unhealthy.

This was the price he had to pay to preserve a fraction of energy with the Wusheng Palm.

The last time he paid a similar price was during a deadly battle within Nanyang Sect with Zhang Laifu.

Moreover, that was with the full support of the Pure Moon Sect’s Chi Yang Elder and the Green Luan Immortal Soldier.

It’s no wonder an additional term of White Jade Capital was needed between Return to Void and Union Dao, the gap between them was far beyond Shen Yi’s expectations.

But the outcome was still good.

He had only intended to stop the Fish Demon, and never expected to actually kill it.

The killing move he had comprehended indeed had some substance.

"Heh, heh."

Neither Chi Yang nor Liu Shiqian noticed Shen Yi’s condition, not because they had low aspirations or were indifferent to Shen Yi,

but because the scene before them was too shocking and mind-blowing.

Even at the moment when the Fish Demon was dismembered, Shen Yi’s palm had never truly touched it.

It was as though their levels of Cultivation were completely reversed,

with the Fish Demon being the one at the Late Stage of Returning Void, killed by a single palm strike from an Immortal of the White Jade Capital.

"Stop fooling around, move quickly," Shen Yi said casually, then walked over to the wall and sat down with his legs crossed, beginning to close his eyes and regulate his breathing.

No matter how similar the strength of Wu Jun and the Fleshwing Silkworm was to those two Demonic Beasts, in reality, with the support of their entire clan brothers, the rarity of their bloodline was far superior to these ordinary Demonic Beasts.

Add to that their complete lack of pain and their fearlessness in the face of death,

Unless faced with a true prodigy, they could indeed be called unbeatable within the same Boundary.

Upon hearing these words,

Both Town Stones seemed as if they had been injected with adrenaline, descending completely into frenzy, the Fleshwing Silkworm sacrificed most of its body to directly bite off the head of the Three-headed Snake Demon and then tore it into three snakes.

Wu Jun even with his shell shattered, continued to clap with both claws, pounding the Noseless Water Elephant to death.

If it weren’t for this Immortal’s Cave,

Just the vast demonic power they’d emitted in their clash, which could almost suffocate a person,

would have probably frightened half of the creatures in Nan Hong.
