第一千八百三十二章林轩的偷袭
Chapter 1832 - Lin Xuan's Ambush
dāo guāng yào yǎn ， zhè shí hòu bié shuō shā yáng lǎo mó ， jiù suàn shì sān yāo huáng ， liù hǎi wáng ， huò zhě shèng chéng zhī zhǔ yǔ tā yì dì ér chǔ ， zhè me jìn de jù lí ， yě shì duǒ wú kě duǒ 。
刀光耀眼，这时候别说煞阳老魔，就算是三妖皇，六海王，或者圣城之主与他易地而处，这么近的距离，也是躲无可躲。
The blade flashed brilliantly. Even if it were the Demon Tyrant Sovereign or the Six Sea Kings, let alone the High City Lord, they would have no place to hide at such close range.
dàn lǎo mó zì rán bù yuàn yì jiù zhè yàng yǔn luò ， yī shēng dà hē ， bǐ qíng tiān pī lì gèng qiáng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， hún shēn shàng xià mó qì fān yǒng ， rán hòu quán bù cháo zhe yòu bì jù jí ， dùn shí zhěng tiáo shǒu bì wū máng dà zuò ， zǐ hóng sè de lín piàn fú xiàn ér chū ， zhǐ jiǎ bào zhǎng ， zhěng gè shǒu bì kàn shàng qù rú tóng biàn chéng le guǐ zhǎo yī yàng 。
但老魔自然不愿意就这样陨落，一声大喝，比晴天霹雳更强的声音传入耳朵，浑身上下魔气翻涌，然后全部朝着右臂聚集，顿时整条手臂乌芒大做，紫红sè的鳞片浮现而出，指甲暴涨，整个手臂看上去如同变成了鬼爪一样。
But the old demon was unwilling to die so easily. With a loud shout that echoed like thunder, his demonic energy surged throughout his body and gathered on his right arm. His entire arm turned dark with energy, scales of purple-red appeared, and his nails grew rapidly. The arm looked like a ghastly claw.
suí hòu tā piān guò tóu lú ， miǎn qiǎng bì guò yào hài zhī chù ， yòu shǒu měng de shēn chū ， yī zhāo hēi hǔ tāo xīn ， zhí qǔ xiān mù yī lán de zuǒ biān lèi gǔ ， zhè suàn shì liǎng bài jù shāng de dǎ fǎ le 。
随后他偏过头颅，勉强避过要害之处，右手猛的伸出，一招黑虎掏心，直取纤幕伊蓝的左边肋骨，这算是两败俱伤的打法了。
He then turned his head slightly, barely avoiding the critical areas, and extended his right hand. With a move akin to Black Tiger Pouncing Heart, he aimed for Iblan's left ribcage. This was a tactic that would result in mutual injury.
dòng xuán qī lǎo guài wù de jīng yàn bì jìng fēng fù ， néng gòu zǒu dào zhè yī bù de jiā huo ， nǎ yí gè bú shì jīng lì le xīng fēng xuè yǔ wú shù 。
dòng玄期老怪物的经验毕竟丰富，能够走到这一步的家伙，哪一个不是经历了腥风血雨无数。
The old demon, at the Profound Yin stage, had vast experience. Few could reach this level without enduring countless trials.
fāng cùn zhī jiān ， biàn dìng shèng fù 。
方寸之间，便定胜负。
In an instant, the outcome was decided.
xiān mù yī lán yòu jīng yòu nù ， dàn zhè shí hòu biàn zhāo yǐ lái bù jí ， zhǐ néng jiāng hún shēn de fǎ lì ， zhù rù tōng tiān líng bǎo lǐ ……
纤幕伊蓝又惊又怒，但这时候变招已来不及，只能将浑身的法力，注入通天灵宝里……
Iblan was both shocked and enraged but it was too late to change his tactics now. He poured all his magical power into the Heavenly Treasure...
xuè huā bèng jiàn ， liǎng rén tóng shí cǎn hū ， shà shí jiān fāng yuán shù lǐ ， dōu mí màn zhe yī gǔ xuè xīng zhī qì ， zhè fān dòu zhì dòu lì ， zuì hòu de jié guǒ ， jū rán shì shuí yě méi yǒu tǎo dào pián yi ， là le gè liǎng bài jù shāng de jié jú 。
血huā迸溅，两人同时惨呼，霎时间方圆数里，都弥漫着一股血腥之气，这番斗智斗力，最后的结果，居然是谁也没有讨到便宜，落了个两败俱伤的结局。
Blood splattered as they both screamed in pain. The area within several miles was soon filled with a stench of blood. Despite their efforts, neither gained an advantage; both were severely injured.
shā yáng lǎo mó de liǎn shàng mǎn shì yuàn dú zhī sè， tā shī qù le yī shǒu yī zú ， ruò bú shì duǒ dé xùn sù ， shèn zhì chà nà me yì diǎn jiù bèi kāi táng pò dù 。
煞阳老魔的脸上满是怨毒之sè，他失去了一手一足，若不是躲得迅速，甚至差那么一点就被开膛破肚。
The demon's face was filled with venomous looks. He had lost one arm and leg. If he hadn't moved quickly, he might have been disemboweled.
cǐ shí xuè yǐ jīng zhǐ zhù ， dàn yī jiù shì tòng dé zī yá liě zuǐ de 。
此时血已经止住，但依旧是痛得呲牙咧嘴的。
Though the bleeding had stopped, it still hurt so much that his teeth gritted together.
xiān mù yī lán yě bù hǎo guò ， zuǒ lē chù yī wǎn kǒu dà de xuè dòng， zhěng gè shēn tǐ jī hū bèi dǎ chuān le ， dàn shāng kǒu ， què méi yǒu xuè liú chū ， zhǐ yǒu yǒu hēi de mó qì ， rú yǒu shēng mìng yì bān de fān yǒng 。
纤幕伊蓝也不好过，左肋处一碗口大的血dòng，整个身体几乎被打穿了，但伤口，却没有血流出，只有黝黑的魔气，如有生命一般的翻涌。
Iblan wasn't faring any better. A large blood hole marred his left ribcage, nearly perforating his body. But there was no blood oozing from the wound; only dark demonic energy surged like a living entity.
liǎng rén gè chī le bù xiǎo de kǔ tóu ， yī jī zhī hòu ， biàn gè zì fēn kāi le 。
两人各吃了不xiǎo的苦头，一击之后，便各自分开了。
Both had suffered greatly and separated after their attack.
“ lǎo jiā huǒ ， wǒ bù guò shā le nǐ yí gè dì zǐ ér yǐ ， zài zhè yàng dǎ xià qù ， kǒng pà shì yī tóng yǔn luò de jié jú ， nán dào nǐ zhēn yuàn yì wèi le qū qū yí gè tú dì ， jiù yǔ běn shào yé pīn le ， yú sǐ wǎng pò ， duì shéi dōu méi yǒu hǎo chù de 。” xiān mù yī lán lěng lěng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
“老家伙，我不过杀了你一个弟子而已，再这样打下去，恐怕是一同陨落的结局，难道你真愿意为了区区一个徒弟，就与本少爷拼了，鱼死网破，对谁都没有好处的。”纤幕伊蓝冷冷的声音传入耳朵。
"Old fellow, I merely killed one of your disciples. If we continue this way, it will likely end in our mutual destruction. Do you really want to risk everything for just one disciple?" Iblan's cold voice echoed.
shā yáng lǎo mó xiàn rù le chén mò ， cǐ shí tā yǐ bù gǎn tuō dà le ， duì fāng suī shì lí hé ， dàn jiù shí lì lái shuō ， què bìng bù bǐ zì jǐ xùn sè。
煞阳老魔陷入了沉默，此时他已不敢托大了，对方虽是离合，但就实力来说，却并不比自己逊sè。
The demon fell silent. He was no longer daring to be complacent. Although the opponent was at the Separation stage, his strength wasn't inferior.
suī rán bù gān xīn ， dàn tā míng bái ， duì fāng suǒ yán ， què shí méi yǒu shén me xū yán fú kuā zhī chù 。
虽然不甘心，但他明白，对方所言，确实没有什么虚言浮夸之处。
Though unwilling, he understood that what Iblan said held no exaggeration.
“ nà nǐ yì yù rú hé ？”
“那你意yù如何？”
"Then what do you propose?"
“ jiù cǐ bà shǒu 。”
“就此罢手。”
"Cease this fight."
chū hū yì liào ， zhè yī cì ， shā yáng lǎo mó méi yǒu duō xiǎng ， hěn gān cuì jiù diǎn tóu dā yìng le 。
出乎意料，这一次，煞阳老魔没有多想，很干脆就点头答应了。
Surprisingly, the demon didn’t hesitate and readily agreed. At this point, he knew his strength was on par with the opponent. In the cultivation world, it was about who had the stronger fists. With no hope of victory, further discussion was pointless.
bì jìng shì qíng dào le zhè yī bù ， tā yě míng bái zì jǐ de shí lì ， yǔ duì fāng xiāng chà fǎng fú ， xiū xiān jiè shì yǐ quán tou shuō huà de ， jì rán méi yǒu shèng lì de bǎ wò ， nà zài shuō shén me dōu méi yǒu yòng tú 。
毕竟事情到了这一步，他也明白自己的实力，与对方相差仿佛，修仙界是以拳头说话的，既然没有胜利的把握，那再说什么都没有用途。
Though returning would be a great embarrassment, considering the benefits, preserving his life was more important.
suī rán zhè yàng huí qù diū liǎn yǐ jí ， dàn quán héng lì bì ， hái shì xiǎo mìng zhòng yào yī xiē 。
虽然这样回去丢脸以极，但权衡利弊，还是xiǎo命重要一些。
Iblan’s agreement seemed too straightforward, raising suspicion in him. His wary gaze swept over the old demon, and he turned into a streak of light, flying away.
duì fāng dā yìng dé rú cǐ gān jìng lì suǒ ， ràng xiān mù yī lán yǒu xiē yí huò， mù guāng zài lǎo guài wù shēn shàng sǎo guò ， mǎn hán jǐng tì de jīng máng dà qǐ ， huà wèi yī dào jīng hóng xiàng yuǎn chù fēi qù 。
对方答应得如此干净利索，让纤幕伊蓝有些疑huò，目光在老怪物身上扫过，满含警惕的jīng芒大起，化为一道惊虹像远处飞去。
After several flashes, he vanished at the water's edge.
shǎn le jǐ shǎn ， jiù xiāo shī zài le shuǐ tiān jiāo jiē zhī dì 。
闪了几闪，就消失在了水天jiāo接之地。
The demon's face showed deep resentment. After a long while, he sighed.
shā yáng lǎo mó de liǎn shàng mǎn shì yuàn dú zhī sè， liáng jiǔ ， què yōu yōu de tàn xī 。
煞阳老魔的脸上满是怨毒之sè，良久，却悠悠的叹息。
This time, it was truly a case of trying to catch a fish but ending up with one’s own fingers bitten.
zhè yī cì ， hái zhēn shì tōu jī bù chéng shí bǎ mǐ 。
这一次，还真是偷jī不成蚀把米。
A mere Separation stage could be so formidable. The Heavenly Treasure and that demonic transformation... what was the young man’s background?
qū qū lí hé ， jū rán kě yǐ qiáng dào zhè ge dì bù ， tōng tiān líng bǎo ， hái yǒu nà mó huà biàn shēn ， nà xiǎo zi ， jiū jìng shì shén me lái lì 。
区区离合，居然可以强到这个地步，通天灵宝，还有那魔化变身，那xiǎo子，究竟是什么来历。
He shook his head as he transformed into a dark cloud, flying towards the Demon Tyrant Sect's main hall.
yáo le yáo tóu ， tā shēn xíng dī liū liū yī zhuǎn ， huà wèi yī duǒ yīn yún xiàng shā yáng zōng de zǒng duò fēi lái 。
摇了摇头，他身形滴溜溜一转，化为一朵yīn云像煞阳宗的总舵飞来。
He had to keep this injury hidden; otherwise, those who sought revenge wouldn’t miss such an opportunity.
zì jǐ shòu shāng de shì qíng ， bì xū yǐn mán xià qù ， fǒu zé yǔ zì jǐ yǒu chóu de jǐ gè lǎo jiā huǒ ， jué duì bú huì fàng guò zhè me hǎo de shí jī 。
自己受伤的事情，必须隐瞒下去，否则与自己有仇的几个老家伙，绝对不会放过这么好的时机。
As he flew hundreds of miles, suddenly, a sword energy streak rose from the sea like a rainbow. The momentum was so powerful it seemed to split heaven and earth, heading straight for his head.
xīn zhōng rú cǐ xiǎng zhe ， tā yǐ jīng fēi guò le shù bǎi lǐ 。
心中如此想着，他已经飞过了数百里。
Caught off guard, the demon was shocked. He never expected to be ambushed. Could that young man have circled back to attack him again?
tū rán ， yī dào rú hóng de jiàn qì ， cóng hǎi miàn dǒu rán shēng qǐ ， nà shēng shì ， fǎng fú yào kāi tiān pì dì ， xiàng zhe tā de tóu dǐng ， hěn hěn de pī là xià qù 。
突然，一道如虹的剑气，从海面陡然升起，那声势，仿佛要开天辟地，向着他的头顶，狠狠的劈落下去。
No, this magical power was different; it must be another person.
biàn qǐ cāng chǔ ， shā yáng lǎo mó dà jīng shī sè， zuò mèng yě méi xiǎng dào ， zì jǐ jū rán huì bèi fú jī ， nán dào shì gāng gāng nà xiǎo zi ， dōu le yí gè quān ， rán hòu yòu lái àn suàn zì jǐ ？
变起仓储，煞阳老魔大惊失sè，做梦也没想到，自己居然会被伏击，难道是刚刚那xiǎo子，兜了一个圈，然后又来暗算自己？
With clear thoughts, the Demon True Man’s face showed more sorrow and anger. It was truly a case of a tiger being bullied by dogs. Even small fish dared to provoke him.
bú duì ， zhè líng lì bō dòng wán quán bù tóng ， shì bié de jiā huo 。
不对，这灵力bō动完全不同，是别的家伙。
But soon he realized his mistake. This wasn’t just any small fry. The sword's power terrified him; it felt familiar, much like Iblan’s previous magical weapon...
gǎn shòu qīng chǔ ， shā yáng zhēn rén jīng nù zhī yú ， liǎn shàng jìng duō chū le jǐ fēn bēi fèn zhī sè， zhēn shì hǔ luò píng yáng bèi quǎn qī ， shén me xiǎo yú xiǎo xiā yě gǎn lái mào fàn zì jǐ 。
感受清楚，煞阳真人惊怒之余，脸上竟多出了几分悲愤之sè，真是虎落平阳被犬欺，什么xiǎo鱼xiǎo虾也敢来冒犯自己。
Heavenly Treasure?
kě hěn kuài ， tā zhī dào zì jǐ cuò le ， zhè nǎ lǐ shì shén me xiǎo xiā mǐ ， nà dào jiàn guāng de wēi lì ， jiǎn zhí lìng tā wèi jù ， gǎn jué hái yǒu xiē shú ， tóng xiān mù yī lán gāng cái shǐ yòng de fǎ qì pǒ duō xiāng sì zhī chù ……
可很快，他知道自己错了，这哪里是什么xiǎo虾米，那道剑光的威力，简直令他畏惧，感觉还有些熟，同纤幕伊蓝刚才使用的法器颇多相似之处……
The idea flashed through his mind, but the demon hesitated. Such a powerful treasure was rare in the Eastern Sea cultivation world. Could this be true now?
tōng tiān líng bǎo ？
通天灵宝？
But pondering these thoughts was meaningless. Regardless of what kind of treasure it was, this sword light was incredibly difficult to handle. He had no defenses left after Iblan's attack.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou shǎn guò ， shā yáng lǎo mó què bù tài gǎn xiāng xìn zì jǐ de pàn duàn le ， bì jìng zhè zhǒng děng jí de bǎo wù ， zài dōng hǎi xiū xiān jiè suàn shì hěn nán jiàn dào de ， kě rú jīn ne ， què yí gè jiē zhe yí gè ， zhè kě néng me ？
脑海中念头闪过，煞阳老魔却不太敢相信自己的判断了，毕竟这种等级的宝物，在东海修仙界算是很难见到的，可如今呢，却一个接着一个，这可能么？
In other words, his current situation wasn’t much better than when facing Iblan’s ambush.
rán ér xiàn zài xiǎng zhè xiē méi yǒu yì yì ， bù guǎn shì shén me bǎo wù de gōng jī ， cǐ jiàn guāng dōu nán chán wú bǐ ， zhè yì diǎn jué wú kě yí ， zuì dǎo méi de shì ， tā shǒu zhōng de fáng yù bǎo wù ， dōu huǐ zài le xiān mù yī lán shǒu lǐ ， zhè shí hòu ， gēn běn jiù ná bù chū dōng xī yǐ zuò dǎng gé 。
然而现在想这些没有意义，不管是什么宝物的攻击，此剑光都难缠无比，这一点绝无可疑，最倒霉的是，他手中的防御宝物，都毁在了纤幕伊蓝手里，这时候，根本就拿不出东西以作挡隔。
Danger!
huàn jù huà shuō ， tā cǐ shí de chǔ jìng ， bǐ gāng gāng miàn duì xiān mù yī lán de tōu xí ， yě hǎo bú dào nǎ lǐ 。
换句话说，他此时的处境，比刚刚面对纤幕伊蓝的偷袭，也好不到哪里。
A slight misstep could lead to his demise.
wēi xiǎn ！
危险！
This adversity seemed to ignite the demon’s courage.
yī bù xiǎo xīn jiù yǒu kě néng yǔn luò 。
一不xiǎo心就有可能陨落。
Roar!
zài zhè zhǒng nì jìng xià fǎn ér jī fā le lǎo guài wù de xuè yǒng 。
在这种逆境下反而jī发了老怪物的血勇。
Despite losing one arm and leg, his severely injured body now burst with endless vitality. His demonic energy enveloped several miles around him, and he was at its center. His right hand was entwined, turning into a ghastly claw again. He then lunged forward.
yuán běn yǐ shī qù le yī shǒu yī zú ， kě tā zhòng shāng de shēn tǐ ， zhè shí hòu què bèng fā chū wú jìn de huó lì ， wú biān de mó qì ， lǒng zhào le fāng yuán shù lǐ ， ér tā jiù shì mó qì de zhōng xīn ， yòu shǒu bèi chán rào ， yòu biàn chéng le gāng cái de guǐ zhǎo ， rán hòu měng rán xiàng qián zhè me yī zhuā 。
原本已失去了一手一足，可他重伤的身体，这时候却迸发出无尽的活力，无边的魔气，笼罩了方圆数里，而他就是魔气的中心，右手被缠绕，又变成了刚才的鬼爪，然后猛然向前这么一抓。
Like a river converging, the surrounding demonic energy suddenly coalesced towards his center. A fierce wind howled as cries of pain filled the air. In mid-air, an incomprehensible ghostly claw appeared, over a hundred feet long, with extremely sharp nails and black electric arcs wrapping around it, along with countless mysterious runes.
cī lā ……
刺啦……
This move seemed fluid but left no trace on the demon’s face; his magical power and blood seemed to be almost completely drained by this attack.
rú wàn liú guī zōng ， nà xiē sàn luò zài zhōu wéi de mó qì ， měng rán wǎng zhōng jiān yī jù ， zhōu wéi kuáng fēng dà zuò ， qī lì de cǎn jiào shēng bù tíng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， tóng shí ， yī zhī dà dào bù kě sī yì de guǐ zhǎo zài bàn kōng zhōng chū xiàn le ， zú yǒu bǎi zhàng zhī jù ， zhǐ jiǎ jiān ruì yǐ jí ， tōng tǐ chán rào zhe yǒu hēi de diàn hú ， hái yǒu wú shù guǐ yì de fú wén ruò yǐn ruò xiàn zhe 。
如万流归宗，那些散落在周围的魔气，猛然往中间一聚，周围狂风大作，凄厉的惨叫声不停传入耳朵，同时，一只大道不可思议的鬼爪在半空中出现了，足有百丈之巨，指甲尖锐以极，通体缠绕着黝黑的电弧，还有无数诡异的符文若隐若现着。
Boom!
zhè yī zhāo shù ， kàn shì xíng yún liú shuǐ bān de wán chéng le ， rán ér shā yáng lǎo mó de liǎn shàng ， què zài yě méi yǒu bàn fēn xuè sè， fǎng fú hún shēn de fǎ lì yǔ jīng xuè ， zài zhè yī jī ， jìng bèi chōu diào le yī dà bàn shì de 。
这一招数，看似行云流水般的完成了，然而煞阳老魔的脸上，却再也没有半分血sè，仿佛浑身的法力与jīng血，在这一击，竟被chōu掉了一大半似的。
The next moment, the ghostly claw clashed with the incomparable sword energy.
hōng ！
轰！
After a brief exchange, the sword energy was shattered and dispersed.
xià yī kè ， guǐ zhǎo yǔ nà wú pǐ de jiàn qì ， hōng rán duì zhuàng zài le yì qǐ 。
下一刻，鬼爪与那无匹的剑气，轰然对撞在了一起。
But it wasn’t over. The first sword light had vanished into nothingness, but another followed closely behind.
liǎng zhě lüè yī xiāng chí ， jiàn qì jū rán bèi dǎ dé sì fēn wǔ liè ， tuì sàn diào le 。
两者略一相持，剑气居然被打得四分五裂，退散掉了。
Lin Xuan had been hiding in ambush; he could now drive his demonic缘sword without restraint, even launching multiple attacks.
rán ér zhè hái méi yǒu jié shù ， qián yī dào jiàn qì gù rán huà wèi le xū wú ， kě hòu yī dào jiàn qì yòu jǐn gēn zhe xiǎn xiàn ér chū 。
然而这还没有结束，前一道剑气固然化为了虚无，可后一道剑气又紧跟着显现而出。
And this wasn't the end. Following the sword were thousands of fire serpents and ice dragons...
lín xuān kě shì duǒ zài àn chù mái fú ， yǐ tā rú jīn de shí lì qū shǐ mó yuán jiàn yǐ méi yǒu shén me chè zhǒu zhī chù ， shèn zhì kě yǐ lián xù chū zhāo le 。
林轩可是躲在暗处埋伏，以他如今的实力驱使魔缘剑已没有什么掣肘之处，甚至可以连续出招了。
Hundred Dragon Fangs!
ér qiě zhè hái méi yǒu jié shù ， jǐn gēn zài jiàn qì hòu miàn de hái yǒu shù yǐ qiān jì de huǒ jiāo yǔ bīng lóng ……
而且这还没有结束，紧跟在剑气后面的还有数以千计的火蛟与冰龙……
Lin Xuan emerged from hiding but made no further attempt to negotiate. Since it was an ambush, there was no need for idle chatter with his prey; he aimed to overwhelm him completely.
bǎi lóng zhī yá ！
百龙之牙！
This fierce attack was just as powerful as Iblan's earlier assault. The demon had no time for anger or thoughts about the enemy’s identity. He had already used all his strength in that move and could only watch as sword light and ice dragons buried the ghostly claw...
lín xuān cǐ shí yǐ xiàn shēn ér chū ， què gēn běn méi yǒu yǔ duì fāng luō suo ， jì rán tōu xí ， hái yǔ liè wù luō suo nà qǐ bù shì hěn yú chǔn dì ， yào de jiù shì yī gǔ zuò qì ， jiāng duì fāng dǎ dào yīn cáo dì fǔ lǐ 。
林轩此时已现身而出，却根本没有与对方啰嗦，既然偷袭，还与猎物啰嗦那岂不是很愚蠢地，要的就是一鼓作气，将对方打到yīn曹地府里。
Postscript: The following words are free to read.
zhè yàng kuáng měng de gōng jī ， yǔ gāng gāng de xiān mù yī lán xiāng bǐ ， nà shì zhǐ qiáng bù ruò ， shā yáng lǎo mó yǐ méi yǒu xīn qíng fèn nù ， yě bù qù xiǎng dí rén shì hé fāng shén shèng le ， gāng gāng nà yī zhāo ， tā yǐ yòng jìn quán lì ， cǐ shí zhǐ néng kàn zhe jiàn guāng yǔ bīng jiāo huǒ lóng ， qián pū hòu jì de jiāng guǐ zhǎo chè dǐ yān mò ……
这样狂猛的攻击，与刚刚的纤幕伊蓝相比，那是只强不弱，煞阳老魔已没有心情愤怒，也不去想敌人是何方神圣了，刚刚那一招，他已用尽全力，此时只能看着剑光与冰蛟火龙，前仆后继的将鬼爪彻底淹没……

Chapter 1832 - Lin Xuan's Ambush
The blade flashed brilliantly. Even if it were the Demon Tyrant Sovereign or the Six Sea Kings, let alone the High City Lord, they would have no place to hide at such close range.
But the old demon was unwilling to die so easily. With a loud shout that echoed like thunder, his demonic energy surged throughout his body and gathered on his right arm. His entire arm turned dark with energy, scales of purple-red appeared, and his nails grew rapidly. The arm looked like a ghastly claw.
He then turned his head slightly, barely avoiding the critical areas, and extended his right hand. With a move akin to Black Tiger Pouncing Heart, he aimed for Iblan's left ribcage. This was a tactic that would result in mutual injury.
The old demon, at the Profound Yin stage, had vast experience. Few could reach this level without enduring countless trials.
In an instant, the outcome was decided.
Iblan was both shocked and enraged but it was too late to change his tactics now. He poured all his magical power into the Heavenly Treasure...
Blood splattered as they both screamed in pain. The area within several miles was soon filled with a stench of blood. Despite their efforts, neither gained an advantage; both were severely injured.
The demon's face was filled with venomous looks. He had lost one arm and leg. If he hadn't moved quickly, he might have been disemboweled.
Though the bleeding had stopped, it still hurt so much that his teeth gritted together.
Iblan wasn't faring any better. A large blood hole marred his left ribcage, nearly perforating his body. But there was no blood oozing from the wound; only dark demonic energy surged like a living entity.
Both had suffered greatly and separated after their attack.
"Old fellow, I merely killed one of your disciples. If we continue this way, it will likely end in our mutual destruction. Do you really want to risk everything for just one disciple?" Iblan's cold voice echoed.
The demon fell silent. He was no longer daring to be complacent. Although the opponent was at the Separation stage, his strength wasn't inferior.
Though unwilling, he understood that what Iblan said held no exaggeration.

"Cease this fight."
"Agreed!"
Surprisingly, the demon didn’t hesitate and readily agreed. At this point, he knew his strength was on par with the opponent. In the cultivation world, it was about who had the stronger fists. With no hope of victory, further discussion was pointless.

This time, it was truly a case of trying to catch a fish but ending up with one’s own fingers bitten.
A mere Separation stage could be so formidable. The Heavenly Treasure and that demonic transformation... what was the young man’s background?
He shook his head as he transformed into a dark cloud, flying towards the Demon Tyrant Sect's main hall.
He had to keep this injury hidden; otherwise, those who sought revenge wouldn’t miss such an opportunity.
As he flew hundreds of miles, suddenly, a sword energy streak rose from the sea like a rainbow. The momentum was so powerful it seemed to split heaven and earth, heading straight for his head.
Caught off guard, the demon was shocked. He never expected to be ambushed. Could that young man have circled back to attack him again?
No, this magical power was different; it must be another person.
With clear thoughts, the Demon True Man’s face showed more sorrow and anger. It was truly a case of a tiger being bullied by dogs. Even small fish dared to provoke him.
But soon he realized his mistake. This wasn’t just any small fry. The sword's power terrified him; it felt familiar, much like Iblan’s previous magical weapon...
Heavenly Treasure?
The idea flashed through his mind, but the demon hesitated. Such a powerful treasure was rare in the Eastern Sea cultivation world. Could this be true now?
But pondering these thoughts was meaningless. Regardless of what kind of treasure it was, this sword light was incredibly difficult to handle. He had no defenses left after Iblan's attack.
In other words, his current situation wasn’t much better than when facing Iblan’s ambush.
Danger!
A slight misstep could lead to his demise.
This adversity seemed to ignite the demon’s courage.
Roar!
Despite losing one arm and leg, his severely injured body now burst with endless vitality. His demonic energy enveloped several miles around him, and he was at its center. His right hand was entwined, turning into a ghastly claw again. He then lunged forward.
Sizzle...
Like a river converging, the surrounding demonic energy suddenly coalesced towards his center. A fierce wind howled as cries of pain filled the air. In mid-air, an incomprehensible ghostly claw appeared, over a hundred feet long, with extremely sharp nails and black electric arcs wrapping around it, along with countless mysterious runes.
This move seemed fluid but left no trace on the demon’s face; his magical power and blood seemed to be almost completely drained by this attack.
Boom!
The next moment, the ghostly claw clashed with the incomparable sword energy.
After a brief exchange, the sword energy was shattered and dispersed.
But it wasn’t over. The first sword light had vanished into nothingness, but another followed closely behind.
Lin Xuan had been hiding in ambush; he could now drive his demonic缘sword without restraint, even launching multiple attacks.
And this wasn't the end. Following the sword were thousands of fire serpents and ice dragons...
Hundred Dragon Fangs!
Lin Xuan emerged from hiding but made no further attempt to negotiate. Since it was an ambush, there was no need for idle chatter with his prey; he aimed to overwhelm him completely.
This fierce attack was just as powerful as Iblan's earlier assault. The demon had no time for anger or thoughts about the enemy’s identity. He had already used all his strength in that move and could only watch as sword light and ice dragons buried the ghostly claw...
