In front stood Ji Xuan, behind was the Undying Demon Emperor.
One in front and one behind, forming a pincer attack.
No matter who it was, anyone caught in such a situation would have to worry about both sides, making defeat all too easy.
“That’s the same as two Nirvana Realm experts besieging him at once. Can Shen Mo really withstand it?”
Ao Qin was filled with fear.
“It’ll be difficult. We need to be ready,” Shi Tian said in a low voice.
“We should take this chance to leave the area and contact as many Dharma Manifestation experts as we can. Any help is better than none!” Tang Jinglong forced himself to stand up.
They had all suffered serious injuries from the aftermath of Shen Mo and Ji Xuan’s clash.
It was already a blessing just to be able to stand now.
But just then, a yellow figure blocked their path.
Ao Guang’s eyes were conflicted. “You can’t leave.”
Ao Qin gnashed his teeth. “Ao Guang! Are you even a flood dragon?”
Ao Guang replied solemnly, “It’s because I am a flood dragon that I so desperately want the true dragon inheritance.”
“What I desire, he possesses it all!”
At the mention of “true dragon inheritance,” even Ao Qin’s heart trembled.
In this world, there were only flood dragons.
Since they could remember, not a single true dragon had ever appeared.
They didn’t even know the method for a flood dragon to transform into a true dragon.
The true dragon inheritance was indeed a great temptation to any flood dragon.
“We’ve all spent countless years in the Demon Suppression Fortress—don’t force me to act.”
Ao Guang sighed softly.
Thanks to Ji Xuan’s protection during the earlier battle, he was unscathed.
Now he was at his peak, while the other Dharma Manifestation experts were heavily wounded.
If it really came to a fight, all of them together might not be Ao Guang’s match.
“Don’t block the way.”
Ao Qin took a few deep breaths and spoke in a deep voice.
Ao Guang sighed. “Then don’t blame me for being ruthless. For the true dragon inheritance, I’ll do whatever it takes.”
In the next moment, the two sides separated from Shen Mo and Ji Xuan’s battlefield and started a fight of their own.
Tang Jinglong, Bai Liejiu, Shi Tian, Lang Ben, and Ao Qin—five Dharma Manifestation experts—took turns fighting Ao Guang.
Two figures, one tall and one short, slowly approached.
“Little Donkey, are you really the reincarnation of a spear spirit? You don’t look like it.”
The short figure curled their lip.
The tall figure snorted. “I really am a spear spirit—the spear spirit of the Demon Hunter Spear.”
“I’ve looked into it long ago. The Demon Hunter Spear was once the Human Emperor Ji Xuan’s personal weapon, his most commonly used spiritual tool. They say it reached the Saint rank.”
Then, proudly, he added, “Heh, never thought I’d be the spear spirit of a Saint-rank weapon.”
The short figure hesitated. “Then you’d better not go over there. I’m afraid Ji Xuan will try to use you.”
The tall figure smiled slightly. “Senior sister, do you really think I made it all the way to Demon Suppression Sea without any preparation?”
“But I’m more worried about you. The Undying Demon Emperor’s bloodline might scare you into switching sides.”
The short figure cursed, “Bullshit! Like I’d ever side with the demon race!”
“Let’s go, time to fight!”
The two of them moved forward together toward the battlefield.
The light of battle illuminated their faces.
They were Lü Dongxuan and Zhao Yaolv.
Lü Dongxuan, following his senses, had arrived at the ninth level.
Zhao Yaolv had noticed something was wrong with the demon race and had been hiding on the ninth level for a long time.
The two had only just met.
Catching them in the corner of his eye, Shen Mo shouted, “Senior sister, go up and bring down that big guy. Just say I sent you.”
“If a dark-skinned guy doesn’t believe you, just tell him he likes women with forked tongues. He’ll believe you for sure!”
Zhao Yaolv froze for a moment, then nodded. “Alright, I’m on it.”
