Chapter 1591: Ending Things
It was too late to run now.
When Taotie Demon King realized that Wu Jun was a 9-heavens immortal king, he asked Diabolical Dragon King to back him up, thinking the two would work together to repel Wu Jun, and find a way to escape.
But Diabolical Dragon King was dealing with his own nasty surprise in the form of Wu Yu’s fighting power. He sensed that this might be a trap, and prepared to flee with Taotie Demon King. However, a blast of reverse Qian Kun from Wu Yu struck him at the moment!
Both Spectral Fire Phoenix and Nightmare Ink Qilin were shocked as well. They had been prepared to sit back and relax - after all, this situation should not require their efforts - but Wu Jun was a 9-heavens immortal king, and Wu Yu could also defend against Diabolical Dragon King!
They were completely unprepared for this!
They had expected an easy slaughter, and then the Apocalyptic Chaos Demon’s head would fall into their hands.
But now they were getting the sense that this was a trap. A trap that they had entered easily and would not get out so easily from.
At least for now, neither Spectral Fire Phoenix nor Nightmare Ink Qilin had been swept up in the fight, but they knew that if both Diabolical Dragon King and Taotie Demon King died here, they too would not live long. Even if they fled now, they could not escape death.
Therefore, they had to do their best as well. If they could but finish Wu Yu off first, and then unite against Wu Jun, they might have a glimmer of hope.
Therefore, both Spectral Fire Phoenix King and Qilin Demon King prepared to enter Wu Yu’s void world. They would deal with him first. It was their only choice - Wu Jun was a 9-heavens immortal king and would end them in the blink of an eye.
That was someone on the level of the demonic emperors, the peak of the Demon Immortal Realm!
All four demon kings held the same burning question in their hearts - how could this mystical dragon be a 9-heavens immortal king?
Who in the world were these people? Why had they come to Demon Immortal Realm?
Could it just be to find the eternal demon emperor’s corpse?
They were completely in the dark!
Taotie Demon King could not put up a respectable defense against a 9-heavens immortal king. However, through some of his superb Mystiques and heavenly rules, he could dodge for a while, and Wu Jun found it hard to eliminate him immediately for the moment.
Of course, Taotie Demon King slipping up and being killed was only a matter of time.
Over at Wu Yu’s side, he saw Spectral Fire Phoenix and Nightmare Ink Qilin preparing to rush him, and he immediately called out Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi from the Floating Dreams Pagoda to deal with them outside of the void world.
Ye Xixi fought the Spectral Fire Phoenix, while Full Moon of Nanshan took on the Nightmare Ink Qilin!
Full Moon of Nanshan had a cheeky grin plastered over his portly face. He showed no fear against the Nightmare Ink Qilin, and the seventh tier of his Flowered Branch of Reincarnation Mystique, Green Wood World, activated. Vegetation began to grow aggressively from the void, dark green tendrils bursting forth to hold Nightmare Ink Qilin with surprising strength.
Green Wood World’s constrictive powers diminished Nightmare Ink Qilin’s strength by half at least. He bellowed in anger, and his own nightmare heavenly rule caught Full Moon of Nanshan in return!
It was a ball of ghastly figures which seemed to have come straight from hell. They instantly swallowed Full Moon of Nanshan up.
But with a quick twist of his body, Full Moon of Nanshan used Gone from the Skies, and he vanished from its midst.
Nightmare Ink Qilin started. He had never seen someone disappear right in the middle of battle before. He had completely lost track of Full Moon of Nanshan’s presence. He was both bewildered and furious.
He was still bound by the dense vines, but could not find Full Moon of Nanshan at all. He howled and howled, but it was useless.
While Nightmare Ink Qilin was trapped by Flowered Branch of Reincarnation, Full Moon of Nanshan used his Gone from the Skies to slip his own bindings. Victory was already in his hands. It was only a matter of time now. Full Moon of Nanshan could run rings around Nightmare Ink Qilin.
If this had been before the Apocalyptic Chaos Demon’s boon, his Flowered Branch of Reincarnation Mystique would have been unable to hold Nightmare Ink Qilin down. Although Gone from the Skies would still have been undetectable, he could not have tied him down.
But now, he could completely tie up Qilin Demon King and even slowly squeeze him to death.
Over at Ye Xixi’s side, the situation was even more clearcut.
Just like Full Moon of Nanshan, she used her defensive black sand transformation against Spectral Fire Phoenix’s fire attacks, vanishing from the field. And then she winked into existence at another point in the void, and attacked Spectral Fire Phoenix.
Spectral Fire Phoenix was considered very strong within the Demon Immortal Realm, and a prominent figure in Fiendish Underworld Metropolis, as one of Diabolical Dragon King’s direct underlings. She had not met such a tough match for a long time.
Ye Xixi, the agile little ghostly cultivator, was hard to get a hold of, slipping in and out of the shadows. If this kept up, she would definitely be worn down and killed by her opponent.
"What’s with this skulking around? Come out and fight me fair if you have the guts!" Spectral Fire Phoenix stormed.
But how could Ye Xixi voluntarily give up her advantage in battle?
Just like Full Moon of Nanshan, she too was using her unique Mystiques to toy with the opponent. Firstly, in a fair fight they would indeed come off a little worse. Secondly, why on earth should they tank attacks when they could avoid the situation entirely?
Basically, Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi’s victories were only a matter of time. They would soon be able to finish off Spectral Fire Phoenix and Nightmare Ink Qilin.
And within the void world, Wu Yu was having a heated showdown against Diabolical Dragon King.
"Violent Art, Submerged Cloud Seal!"
Wu Yu had turned into a golden ape, and delivered a superhuman blow with the combination of crusader heavenly rule, Sanctified Flesh heavenly rule, and Violent Art. The terrifying Submerged Cloud Seal tore into Diabolical Dragon King with savage power!
The void around Diabolical Dragon King was shredded apart, and he sensed death was close. His dark heavenly rule power blasted out desperately.
"Fiendish heavenly rule!" The gloomy clouds expanded into an area around him. Within their midst, Diabolical Dragon King’s powers swelled. Even the buffed Submerged Cloud Seal was unable to finish him off in one hit.
But Diabolical Dragon King had one head torn off by Wu Yu’s Submerged Cloud Seal, and now he only had eight heads now. His powers were very much lessened.
At this time, he saw that Taotie Demon King was hurt even more badly than he was. Half of his body had already been torn to bits, vanishing into the void.
The 10,000 Eyed Taotie was now left with 5,000 eyes. The creepy eyes had vanished along with the body they were grown on. Unless he could immediately enter secluded cultivation for hundreds of thousands of years, he would be unable to return to his original condition.
Taotie Demon King was completely crushed with regret. His hatred was also directed at Diabolical Dragon King, for not confirming Wu Jun’s cultivation realm before they rushed over.
And now Taotie Demon King looked like a fool who had come to commit suicide.
He wanted to flee now, and at least keep his life. If he cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years he might find a way to rise again. But how could Wu Jun give him such a chance?
Soon, Taotie Demon King would not even be able to hold on.
Diabolical Dragon King knew well that he was next on the chopping block after Taotie Demon King fell, and so he hurriedly turned his remaining eight heads to Wu Yu. "I regret it! I regret it! Spare my life, and I will never bother you again! I will even give you the whole of Fiendish Underworld Metropolis, it’s all yours!"
He did not want to die. He had cultivated this far, and it had not been an easy journey. He was but two steps away from eternal demon emperor status. How could he bear to die in the hands of some random opponent?
Besides, if he died here no one would know at all. No one would take revenge on his behalf. At first, he had been thinking that he might find a way to leave after killing Wu Yu, and seek greener pastures.
That was all a dream now, his life on the brink of getting snuffed out.
Therefore, he was earnestly pleading for Wu Yu to spare his life.
However, Wu Yu obviously could not spare him. It was not because Diabolical Dragon King had offended him in the past, and he could not let it go. Rather, if he let him go, Diabolical Dragon King would spread word of Wu Yu, and vengeance would eventually come knocking.
At that time, it would not be as simple as fighting two 8-heavens demon kings. The demonic emperors would definitely take a hand. If two or more of them joined forces, not even Wu Jun would be able to hold out.
Therefore, the moment he saw him surrender, Wu Yu did not let up, but mercilessly used his next heavenly rule.
"Doppelganger heavenly rule.
1 million doppelgangers appeared in the void world, and swarmed all over the eight heads of the Diabolical Dragon King.
At a command from Wu Yu, all 1 million doppelgangers used their doppelganger heavenly rule power!
Heavenly rule power flooded forth from all 1 million doppelgangers, merging into a singular powerful attack that held all of their power. Its destructive ability was more than tenfold that of the Submerged Cloud Seal!
This was Wu Yu’s strongest move. As the 1 million doppelgangers appeared and used their doppelganger heavenly rule, Diabolical Dragon King was not even able to shout his defiance before he was thoroughly slain. His remaining eight heads disintegrated.
