The Emperor Reigns Them All

Chapter 265 Battling the Demon



Chapter 265 Battling the Demon

Li Ye steadied his breath and waited calmly.

Su Emei’s robes fluttered like a butterfly as she advanced towards the Demon Fei. The osmanthus flowers drifted around her like snow, and her sword light kept dashing towards the demon. Demon Fei was quickly surrounded by her Sword Qi, just like a big tree in the midst of a storm.

Demon Fei sneered and said, “The demon clan has not appeared for thousand years, now people look down upon us. A Spiritual Master of the Spiritual Pool dares to attack us Demons, and you really don’t know your place!”

As he finished those words, the two giant horns in the Demon Fei’s hands began swinging. Dark green smoke lingered on the horns, and once the Sword Qi touched the smoke, it immediately dissolved just like a mud cow that sank into the sea. It just seemed to have been swallowed up.

The Demon Fei suddenly growled, and the smoke around his whole body expanded greatly, rushing to Su Emei. Her eyebrows tightened from shock and with a low scream, she attacked faster with her long sword. The sword light was like a meteor and river, dashing toward Demon Fei ceaselessly.

The Demon Fei advanced against the current of the sword light, and the Sword Qi near the demon’s face was quickly swallowed up by the smoke. The Spiritual Qi burst out in the mid-air, making a squeaking sound. It sounded like cold water had poured out Mars.

Soon, the Demon Fei charged toward Su Emei and stopped thirty feet in front of her. He raised the horns high above his head and his face became extremely fierce instantly. The murderous sense in his eyes flashed and he yelled, “Go to hell, nonentity!”

The horns dashed down, and the dark green smoke came towards Su Emei like an open flood gate. The osmanthus flowers around her body turned into ashes one after another as soon as they touched the smoke. Her territory was swallowed up. Only a few osmanthus flowers were still floating about thirty feet around her.

A hint of ferocity flashed in Su Emei’s eyes as she saw the horns were about to fall down on her. The white light from her long sword suddenly expanded and countless osmanthus flowers flew out from the blade, which looked like a swarm of bees coming out of the hives. The sword light was aimed directly at the two horns that were coming down on her.

Waves of Spiritual Qi erupted and spread dozens of meters around them. Their clothes and hair blew backwards, the long sword and the horns were stuck in a stalemate.

Demon Fei’s eyes revealed a hint of shock, and it seemed that he was astounded that Su Emei could actually block him. But then he laughed out loudly and said, “Nice sword move, great cultivation. I can feel the so-called immortal sense on you... but that’s as far as you go!”

As he said those words, runes had lit up from the horns in his hands. A puff of condensed smoke mass suddenly erupted! It was too close, the smoke mass directly hit Su Emei’s chest, she could no longer resist, and her body flew backwards.

Demon Fei vanished, and it was already in front of Su Emei when it appeared again. The horns in his hands slammed down heavily! Su Emei was already flying backwards uncontrollably, now there was no way to defend. Although she had the long sword blocking in front, it was basically useless. If the horn hit her, she was likely to be directly smashed into the ground. She would then either die or be badly wounded.

The Demon Fei exerted his full strength; eliminating Su Emei was his top priority.

Then, a green lotus bloomed on the waist side of the Demon Fei.

Although the Demon Fei was fighting with Su Emei, his senses were extraordinarily powerful. Of course, he would not forget Li Ye. A disdainful sneer skimmed over his lips, and one horn swung to his left waist to block. Meanwhile, the horn in his right hand was still attacking Su Emei!

His way of blocking showed that the Demon Fei had never put Li Ye and Su Emei on his level. In his view, the two Spiritual Masters of the Spiritual Pool were not worthy to be his opponents at all. The Demon Fei had even anticipated that after Su Emei smashed to the ground, he could take advantage of this opportunity and cut across with his horns to finish Li Ye off too.

The Demon Fei knew the power of his full strength strike, which was definitely not something that the Spiritual Master of the Spiritual Pool could block. This Spiritual Master of the Spiritual Pool he was referring to was based on the demon clan’s!

The Luke Sword landed on the horn with a clunk.

Suddenly the Demon Fei was shocked, and his eyes revealed a sense of disbelief. His left arm trembled and the horns were almost unsettled. A huge force hit him through the tip of the sword and drilled into his left arm along the horns like rolling waves. It directly shook the demon’s arm.

His right hand was delayed for an instant, and when it fell again, there was nothing left in front of the horn. Su Emei was lucky enough to escape.

The demon turned and stared at Li Ye, there was a trace of blood in Demon Fei’s large, bell-shaped eyes. It showed that he was already angry. But the demon was not only angry, but also taken aback. The power of Li Ye’s attack was far beyond his expectations. Not even a Yin Spiritual Master of the demon clan could rival that strength, much less an ordinary Spiritual Master of the Spiritual Pool.

When he had realized Li Ye’s strength, the Demon Fei began to face Li Ye with concentration.

Li Ye was also surprised that in his eagerness to save Su Emei, he had already exerted his full strength. The Sword Method of “Sword Qi Born Lotus” was extraordinary in power. It had the ability to challenge those above his cultivation. And he had also used the power of green lotus in his body. He had even summoned some of the power of the Dragon Qi.

An ordinary Yin Spiritual Master could not even handle such a blow, but when it landed on the Demon Fei, his arm only trembled slightly.

Su Emei stabilized her body in the distance and a trace of blood flowed from her mouth. Her breath was somewhat disordered. The full strike of the Demon Fei just now had caused a large impact on her. She was a reincarnated immortal, and her strength was stronger than that of an ordinary Spiritual Master of the Spiritual Pool. But the power of the demon clan cultivators was on par with the immortals. Not to mention that the opponent was a Yin Spiritual Master.

The Demon Fei stared at Li Ye. “Now I know why a guy like you could make trouble for the Immortal Court. You are tough. I thought killing you would be easy. Now it seems that you are a worthy opponent. Well in that case, get ready to see the true strength of the Demon Fei!”

The Demon Fei suddenly flew up more than one hundred feet and roared thunderously. Suddenly, within thousands of feet radius, countless flame-like green smoke puffed up, covering the sky and the sun. It had turned heaven and earth into an enshrouding world full of green light.

His territory had been fully opened, and the flames of the green light wrapped all around them. Li Ye immediately sensed that the Spiritual Qi in his body was rapidly dissipating like an exposed ice cube. Even his skin was gradually becoming wrinkled, as if he was aging instantly.

His life was being rapidly eroded.

Li Ye did not hesitate and launched the Morning Purple Shower. Usually it would cover the territory of more than a thousand feet. But this time, it was only half the size, and it was still being eroded by the green smoke and flames. It was also unstable. “Air Leaks” were appearing everywhere. Aside from the fact that the power was greatly reduced, Li Ye’s consumption of maintaining the territory was also increasing.

The only good news was that his Spiritual Qi did was still intact, and the skin on his body did not become wrinkled again.

Not only was Li Ye experiencing the situation, so was the case for Su Emei. Except that her range of territory was even smaller.

“Enjoy the power of the Demon Fei, you will die soon!” The voice of the Demon Fei came from above, the arrogance and excitement in his voice were beyond words.

Li Ye lifted his sword and got up without any words. A blue-colored light directly cut towards the Demon Fei up high!

He knew that he couldn’t wait, he must attack immediately. Even if the opponent’s territory was bizarre and predictable, it made you intuitively not to act rashly. But no matter what would happen next, it was better than sitting still.

Li Ye felt something was wrong as soon as he made the attack. His Sword Qi was being eroded half way by the dark green smoke. Its power dropped by more than half when it got the Demon Fei. This meant that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t seriously harm the Demon Fei.

At the same time, amid the green smoke between the heavens and the earth, suddenly there were unusual fluctuations of Spiritual Qi coming towards them. A few giant beasts formed from dark green smoke quickly rushed towards Li Ye. They were all one-eyed and white-faced. They all had a bovine body and a snake tail, just like the appearance of the Demon Fei!

These smoke formed Demon Feis were moving their limbs, and their horns on their heads pointed directly at Li Ye. Fright appeared in Li Ye’s eyes, he quickly wielded his sword to block the oncoming attack. His Sword Qi dashed in the air and cut towards the demons. When it landed on the demons, it made a strange ‘poof’ noise, but the only impact the Sword Qi made was merely spread the smoke out a little. It couldn’t really cause any damage to the demons.

Li Ye had no choice but to exert full strength. Strands of sword light shot out ceaselessly, and cut off every wisp of the demon’s dark smoke.

Fortunately, there were not a lot of smoke formed demons; otherwise Li Ye would be exhausted.

After getting rid of six smoke formed demons, he finally caught a break. But the Spiritual Qi of his Ocean of Qi was consumed by a fifth.

“Not bad. Your Spiritual Qi’s vigor and purity are different from ordinary people. You are indeed the Prince An, Li Ye!” The Demon Fei laughed and said, “But in my territory, it is impossible to eliminate the countless Demon Feis!”

As his words landed, eight more smoke formed Demon Feis charged towards him. They not only blocked Li Ye’s path forward to the Demon Fei, but also sealed off his escape route. Li Ye silently gritted his teeth. The territory of this Demon Fei was too strong, couple that with his strong techniques, Li Ye was forced to defend passively.

But in defense mode, he would end up in a bad circulation. After all, the demon’s territory was consuming his life and vitality, and rapidly consuming the power of his Spiritual Qi.

Su Emei flew over to shoulder some of the pressure for Li Ye. While she was dealing with the smoke formed Demon Fei, she said to Li Ye, “Demon Fei is the demon of disaster, and within the coverage of the territory, it can erode life and vitality. So it can rapidly erode our Spiritual Qi. The power of our techniques is greatly reduced. But in such a territory, there must be a weakness; otherwise the Demon Fei would be the great sage of the demon clan!”

What Su Emei said made a lot of sense. In fact, Li Ye has been observing since the beginning of the battle. He intended to find out the weaknesses and flaws of the Demon Fei, but nothing had come to fruition as yet.

Li Ye added while he was fighting, “You hang in there; I want to try something.”

As he said those words, Li Ye sliced the nearest smoke formed demon. Suddenly lotus flowers began forming from under his feet as he darted towards the Demon Fei. He travelled dozens of meters with hundreds of steps. And like running, his gained speed as he travelled, before long, he reached another dark smoke-formed demon.

At this time, there were hundreds of lotus flowers under his feet.

Li Ye wielded his sword, sliced vertically and yelled, “The boundless ocean of lotus!”

Hundreds of lotuses had been turned into hundreds of streaks of Sword Qi, just like an arrow-shower. The arrows flew out from behind him and a few giant smoke formed demons got hit directly. The arrows shot countless holes through the smoke formed demons, which then burst into thick fog, and dissipated.

There were no more barriers before Li Ye and Demon Fei.

Li Ye did not use the group attack technique before because he was worried about the consumption it made on his body. Now Li Ye couldn’t think about that anymore. He must find the weakness of the demon as soon as possible, otherwise it would be death.

When the Demon Fei saw Li Ye approach, he was taken aback. Even Demon Fei’s hand that was holding the horn began trembling. But he quickly covered his fright. “You are full of surprises. But if you think you can defeat me with your little tricks, you are much mistaken!”
