Chapter 533: Chapter 529: Demon God
"No!"
"Black Fire! Di Yan! Qiushan Mountain!"
Watching the six Demon Emperors being crushed effortlessly, the few remaining Demon Emperors’ eyes filled with shock and fear.
"How can this be... so strong!?"
Demon Emperor Kaya’s throat moved.
"This is definitely not the power of the Strongest Void Immortal! True Immortal! He is a True Immortal!"
Changyuan Demon Emperor shuddered, the fear in his eyes suddenly magnified, "True Immortal! Only a Demon God can contend with a True Immortal!"
He urgently communicated with a distant Demon Emperor, "Quickly notify Venerable Xuan Yang!"
"To continue fighting would only lead to senseless sacrifices! Let’s go!"
Demon Emperor Kaya, energizing his spirit, said as his massive form suddenly soared into the sky.
To cut ties decisively.
Those ordinary devils, even Demon Kings, no matter how many died, it did not matter; but at the level of a Demon Emperor, each one was a significant force, not only on this battlefield but also in the battlefield of the Immortal Country.
Currently having lost ten Demon Emperors, this was akin to a crippling blow for them surrounding the Holy Dynasty.
Facing such an unbeatable enemy, they must preserve sufficient strength to be used in more crucial places.
Demon Emperor Kaya soared into the sky, and the remaining three Demon Emperors also quickly reacted, each rushing in different directions at top speed.
"Can you even escape."
Gu Jinlai took a step in the void.
The Thunder Light Dragon Transformation was deployed, and in an instant, he caught up behind one of the Demon Emperors.
Considering the even more perilous battle that awaited, he did not unleash the power of the Chaotic Starlight Body again but continued to operate the Eternal Furnace, and fierce, rampant energy began accumulating in his hands.
The Demon Emperor, targeted by Gu Jinlai, upon sensing the speed burst forth in his pursuit, a flash of despair passed through his eyes.
"Too fast... not on the same level in terms of speed... probably even the Venerables can’t compare with him in this aspect..."
After the despair, this Demon Emperor immediately made up his mind, "Escape! Escape back to the Demon Realm through the portal!"
Energizing the spirit within him, his form suddenly shifted, cultivating an intense, fierce energy from within.
"Is this a self-destruct?"
Gu Jinlai had a thought.
"Since you intend to self-destruct, I’ll help you hasten the process."
Within the Thunder Light Domain, the wind and thunder roared, a bolt of lightning like a divine sword tearing through the void, struck the Demon Emperor; in an instant, the violent energy within it slightly stagnated.
This interference caused the barely controllable self-destructive force to suddenly lose control.
As Gu Jinlai deployed Thunder Light Dragon Transformation again to distance himself, a wave of violent energy erupted from within the Demon Emperor, sweeping across tens of miles.
Its power, compared to the nuclear fusion released by Gu Jinlai, was hardly any less potent.
This terrifying energy caused sadness to flash in the eyes of the remaining three Demon Emperors.
But they didn’t have much time to grieve over the fatal demise of this Demon Emperor.
Accompanied by flickering thunder light, Gu Jinlai, who was faster than these Demon Emperors by more than a notch, directly pursued this Demon Emperor.
This Demon Emperor was extremely determined.
He glanced at the human city now visible below him and roared, "Gu Jinlai, you are of the Human Clan, if you kill me, I will rush into this human residential area and self-destruct. By then, I will certainly die, yet tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of your people will perish with me, and you will be the primary culprit behind these tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of deaths!"
"Rumble rumble!"
The response was thunder light traversing the heavens and earth.
The Thunder Sword!
And moreover...
It was dozens of Thunder Swords striking down simultaneously.
Accompanied by the full activation of Gu Jinlai’s Chaotic Starlight Body, the power of these Thunder Swords seemed to make the heavens and earth resonate, each strike more than twice as powerful as usual.
The numerous sword lights, like a violent storm, bombarded relentlessly; the Demon Emperor could only watch helplessly as his powerful demonic body was incinerated inch by inch, pounded to dust.
"Don’t underestimate top Divine Powers as mere skills; sparing you from derived attacks of the Thunder Light Domain is merely to conserve strength for confronting the Xuan Yang Demon God behind you."
Gu Jinlai said, his form once again like lightning, sweeping through the void, moving to attack another Demon Emperor.
However, just as he was about to bring this Demon Emperor within attack range, he sensed the Essence Qi Spirit of this Demon Emperor rapidly being drawn out, condensing into...
A Demon Spirit!
Yes!
Gu Jinlai clearly "saw" this Demon Emperor extracting the Essence Qi Spirit or the spirit from his body, condensing it into a Demon Spirit form.
However, due to the haste, the newly formed Demon Spirit was so weak that it didn’t even reach the level of a catastrophe.
Gu Jinlai didn’t even need to use the Eternal Heavenly Curse; merely using the Great Sun Eternal Radiance Technique, he could directly refine it into pure spirit, possibly even forging one or two Spiritual Artifacts.
Even a Great Heavenly Master had the capability to slay this Demon Spirit.
But...
At this moment, Gu Jinlai couldn’t make his move.
The Aries Star Lord had already cast his gaze upon this region.
If he truly used the Soul Secret Technique, it would inevitably draw the Aries Star Lord’s arrival, and then...
"The Essence I have accumulated is still not enough to instantly elevate a Creator’s Inheritance to Perfection, and now facing the Aries Star Lord..."
Gu Jinlai’s expression hardened.
And without using the Soul Secret Technique...
Even though the Demon Emperor before him was so weak that he was even inferior to a Catastrophic-level Demon Spirit, he was still helpless against him.
On the other side, the Changheng Demon Emperor and Demon Emperor Kaya seemed to realize that with Gu Jinlai’s speed, it was impossible for them to escape his slaughter. Thus, they similarly stripped the spirituality from their Demon God Bodies, condensing it into weak Demon Spirits and quickly surged toward the direction of the Demon Realm Rift.
And as they transformed themselves into the state of Demon Spirits, peeling away from those Demon Emperor bodies, these bodies also lost all signs of life, turning into corpses and plummeting toward the ground.
Gu Jinlai’s figure leapt through the air.
He followed these Demon Spirits and soon arrived at a towering building resembling a high tower.
At the center of that building, he felt scattered spatial fluctuations.
Clearly, a Demon Realm Rift was hidden inside.
"For a cultivator facing a Demon Spirit, the disadvantage is too great, unless one possesses a special method. Otherwise, there are hardly any techniques that can erode a Demon Spirit, the only method is probably by using powerful Essence Qi Spirit to seal a Demon Spirit within oneself and then grind it to death."
Gu Jinlai halted his movement, "Or rather, grind it until it bursts."
This was also why even the most powerful Void Immortals and True Immortals would only dare say they could withstand the attacks of a Demon Spirit, but never claim they could kill one.
Gu Jinlai’s gaze lingered on the building for a moment, seemingly sensing something, he soared into the air, flying towards the high sky.
The sky of this world was much vaster compared to that of Blue Star.
Gu Jinlai soared tens of thousands of meters above the ground, yet still hadn’t felt the white clouds beneath his feet.
It seemed he had still not left the stratosphere of this world.
Standing in the void, he could feel more clearly the intersections between the Child of the Stars and this world.
In a vague sense, he even felt further advancement in the power of magnetic field rotation.
"Buzz, buzz!"
Just as Gu Jinlai was beginning to comprehend something, the void trembled.
A majestic phantom figure, similarly over a hundred meters tall, traversed through the clouds, riding the wind and commandeering the sunlight, grandly appearing.
Its metallic luster reflected the external brilliance, making this figure resembling...
A golden Demon God, filled with an oppressing sense of suffocation.
This Demon God maintained a human form, yet it had three heads and twelve arms.
And each of its heads oddly possessed three faces.
On its six pairs of arms, it held various weapons such as knives, spears, swords, halberds, bottles, zithers, drums, bows, and more.
"Xuan Yang Demon God."
Gu Jinlai said solemnly.
He looked at this immense figure, hundreds of meters in height, his expression full of gravity.
He had already heard the worldly evaluations of Demon Gods.
He knew that the greatest difference between Demon Generals and Demon Emperors was whether they were "alive" or not.
Although Demon Emperors had transformed themselves into monsters, they still possessed various characteristics of life.
But a Demon God...
They no longer belonged to a category of living beings but were a kind of war creation.
This category reminded Gu Jinlai of unmanned combat aircraft, intelligent mechas, and so on.
A powerful Spirit Venerable descended upon the body of a Demon God, driving a powerful Demon God Body to battle the Human Clan.
Even if humans managed to destroy these Demon God Bodies, they could do nothing to the Spirit Venerable itself.
They just wait for them to cast another Demon God Body, then they would descend again, almost unscathed and re-join the battlefield.
This style of combat...
Gu Jinlai felt as if he sensed the aura of future science fiction warfare.
"Humans."
As Gu Jinlai stared at the Xuan Yang Demon God, the Demon God was also looking at him.
Its nine faces did not speak, but its eighteen eyes simultaneously focused on Gu Jinlai.
There was also a force similar to a spiritual resonance, transmitting voices and information, allowing him to capture and listen.
"I don’t understand your courage. Your world is ultimately going to be destroyed by those monsters, so why resist to the end? If you accept our rule, at least you can still survive, your species can continue..."
"The future direction of this world and what it will become is to be decided by the natives of this world, and not by you foreign invaders directing and painting."
Gu Jinlai responded.
And his words actually gained the approval of the Xuan Yang Demon God.
It seemed to realize something and chuckled resignedly, "I have wasted time. If language held power, the war between our two worlds wouldn’t have lasted for so long. A competition between civilizations, irrelevant of all else, is only about life and death! So, let me see, where does the courage come from that lets you dare to challenge me alone?"
The next moment, a profound energy surged into a treasure bottle raised in one of its arms. The bottle shone brilliantly, seemingly nurturing some terrifying attack.
Meanwhile, its other two hands also held an arrow and bow, the arrowhead brimming with an intensely condensed cold light, targeting Gu Jinlai.
At the same time, another hand strummed a harp forcefully, sending out a soul-shaking sonic wave.
Yet another hand beat a large drum, each beat seeming to fiercely strike directly on Gu Jinlai’s heart.
In an instant, Gu Jinlai felt as if he were caught in an onslaught by several top-tier powerhouses.
