第两千五百五十六章 将计就计

Lin Xuan's face turned an extremely unpleasant shade. He abruptly turned his body, only to see Su Yunfeng silently hovering in the air about ten paces away.

"Stupid fellow," he sneered with a sinister smile on his face. "You actually thought of escaping from before this True Lord? Too naive. I will refine your soul and spirit. And... it seems you have quite an interesting taste."

"You want to use my essence infant as a drink, but don't be afraid that the wind might blow and make you spill your tongue," Lin Xuan said with a dark expression.

Despite his grim face, he wasn’t entirely frightened. The current demon was terrifying, but there were still opportunities for him.

He sighed lightly: "Originally, we had no grudge against each other. I didn't want to fight over life and death. But you insisted on pushing me into a corner. Did you close the entrance of this space?"

"Indeed."

Su Yunfeng showed no fear as he admitted calmly: "You're quite good at hiding and escaping with your light speed. If I were less careful, you might have escaped. To leave from here, it's not difficult. Just defeat me, and the entrance will reappear. Otherwise..."

Before his words finished, Lin Xuan had already acted.

He waved his sleeves, and a clear ringing sound echoed as dozens of pale silver flying swords emerged from his sleeves like fish swimming in water. They formed a dozen sword lights about a foot long, swirling around him.

Originally, Lin Xuan intended to escape. However, this demon was blind, sealing him here and clearly stating that the only way out was by eliminating him.

What else could he say? In this situation, it was either his death or theirs. Lin Xuan naturally took the initiative.

Given the strange powers of this celestial demon, a late reaction would only make things more passive for him.

Lin Xuan had extensive experience in magical battles and instantly made such judgments. Thus, he decisively summoned the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword, making an impressive display.

His methods extended beyond that.

He raised his right hand, tapped his waist, and a bright light flashed. A sharp cone-shaped treasure flew out, red in color with electric arcs swirling around it, emitting faintly glowing talismanic runes.

It was none other than the ancient treasure, the Thunder Fire Cone!

To be honest, given Lin Xuan's current strength, this treasure’s power wasn't particularly extraordinary. However, as for all things under heaven and earth, there were their own growth principles. According to the theory of the Five Elements, treasures with electrical properties had some restraining effects on demons, ghosts, and monsters.

The Thunder Fire Cone possessed both electric and fire properties. Under such circumstances, Lin Xuan naturally chose to use it. The surface was aglow with heart-stirring flames and electric arcs. Su Yunfeng's pupils constricted slightly, showing a hint of fear, but quickly replaced by ferocity.

"Quickly!"

Lin Xuan pointed his finger forward. Immediately, thunderous sounds resounded as the Thunder Fire Cone emitted a bright light, forcefully shooting towards the front.

The display was impressive, and Su Yunfeng’s face showed a sinister expression. His eyes flashed with vicious intent, and he shook his shoulder slightly.

Boom!

Rushing demon energy burst out in all directions. Then his entire body vanished, replaced by hundreds of demonic illusions shooting in every direction.

Each residual shadow had the same aura and appearance, making it impossible to distinguish which was real within a short time.

Thus, the Thunder Fire Cone fell into emptiness. Although it destroyed more than ten residual shadows, its effect under such circumstances was negligible.

Without finding the main target, even the most powerful treasure would become useless.

Seeing countless demonic shadows rushing towards him, Lin Xuan’s face turned pale with fear. He quickly raised his right hand and cast a spell at the sword lights in front of him.

Instantly, clear ringing sounds echoed as all the sword lights trembled, emitting silver light. They instantly transformed into nine from one, rapidly changing into hundreds of identical sword lights within moments.

After a brief dance, silver sword energy spread across the sky like a raging sea, creating an impressive display.

"Break it!"

Lin Xuan shouted loudly. Immediately, hundreds of sword lights swam out to chase after those demonic shadows, aiming to exterminate them completely.

Such a defensive strategy was not wrong. However, with such a large number of demonic illusions, it would be difficult for the sword lights to completely eliminate them in a short time.

In the sky, silver light and black energy interwove, making it hard to determine who had the upper hand. Facing the heavy resistance from the sword lights, the demonic shadows struggled to break through but found it equally challenging due to their large numbers.

At first glance, both sides seemed evenly matched, presenting a stalemate.

However, was this really so?

Lin Xuan concentrated on controlling the sword lights while suddenly noticing a disturbance in space several paces behind him. A demonic illusion appeared.

He didn't know how he managed to evade all those flying swords.

Regardless, Lin Xuan showed no signs of awareness and continued focusing on the illusions before him. This one behind him was completely unnoticed by him.

No, this wasn’t an illusion; it quickly revealed its eyes, nose, mouth, and body, identical to the demonized Su Yunfeng.

His movements were cautious. Seeing that Lin Xuan showed no defenses, a sinister smile appeared on his lips. The distance of several feet meant nothing for beings at their level. He raised his right hand, and his demonic arm silently grew, crossing this short distance to stab Lin Xuan's back.

He aimed for the heart position. If he hit accurately, it wouldn't be fatal, but his body would certainly be ruined.

Who said ancient demons were just crude and barbaric? At this moment, Su Yunfeng clearly had a plan, aiming to eliminate Lin Xuan in one fell swoop here.

However, that was not so easy.

Seeing the ghostly claws only a few feet away, Lin Xuan's body suddenly shifted several feet to the side. A hair’s breadth made all the difference. Thus, his attack landed on empty air. Then, at an almost imperceptible speed, he turned his head.

Without any additional movements, he waved his right hand.

"Aaah!"

Su Yunfeng was genuinely startled. He wanted to dodge but found it too late.

When fishing, those who wish to catch will be caught. He tried to outwit Lin Xuan, only for the opponent to use his plan against him.

As he retreated, an unusual surge of spiritual energy came from the air.

"Bad luck!"

The demon was shocked but couldn't dodge in time. A black ray of fierce light pierced through his head, and blood gushed out instantly.

The Black Spirit Drill Secret Technique was almost always effective when used as a surprise attack under such circumstances. In this battle of wits and strength, Lin Xuan emerged victorious. However, soon after, the smile on his face vanished, replaced by a serious expression!
