Chapter 190: Battling a Host of Demons
The colossal body of the Dragon Gate Demon King was sent flying, crashing forcefully into the ground.
The Heaven and Earth Dharma Image faced a multitude of Demon Kings, emitting a silent roar as it swung its arms, unleashing terrifying fist strikes. Each strike manifested as a True State phenomenon, resembling lightning and thunder, wind and fire, as they surged toward the Demon Kings.
The grotesque forms of the Demon Kings clashed with the Heaven and Earth Dharma Image, creating a scene that felt like a battle between numerous demons and a true deity.
Li Tiangang, rushing at full speed, his expression constantly changing.
The familiar Heaven and Earth Dharma Image reminded him of the battle in Qingzhou.
Back then, the battle was so intense that it shook the heavens and the earth, starting from the Divine General Manor and extending all the way to the city's outskirts, with a fierce aerial battle raging above Qingzhou City.
That arrogant and spirited young man was suppressed by his Immortal might.
Now, the power of this Heaven and Earth Dharma Image was even greater than before.
The awe-inspiring aura emanating from the Dharma Image, even to Li Tiangang, who had reached the Fourth Establishment Realm, was enough to make his heart race.
This was not the arrogance of youth, but an unchallengeable authority!
Pang! Pang! Pang!
With a series of rapid punches and kicks, Li Hao's Heaven and Earth Dharma Image fought alone against the Demon Kings. The force of their attacks tore the ground beneath the Dharma Image, leaving behind terrifying claw-like fissures.
But the body of the Heaven and Earth Dharma Image, though torn by the Demon Kings' attacks, quickly healed, with an endless supply of power pouring in.
In contrast, the Demon Kings were repeatedly thrown or kicked away, unable to get close and inflict any harm on Li Hao.
"Scatter!"
Li Hao's eyes glinted coldly as the Dharma Image swung its arms, unleashing a force of ten thousand tons, sweeping horizontally.
A Mountain Ape-like Demon King from the Void Realm, leaping forward, was punched in the face and sent flying.
Another Demon King, resembling a winged giant crocodile, diving down, was kicked away by Li Hao, crashing into the ground several miles away.
The Dharma Image raised its hand, gathering the power of heaven and earth, forming a pure, condensed beam of sword light in its palm. It swung its hand, and a deluge of Spring Rain surged forth.
The raindrops, like swords and waves, rained down on the Demon Kings.
Enraged, the Demon Kings raised their hands to strike, shattering the sword light, but the rain of sword light was endless, like a heavy rain, forcing several Demon Kings to retreat.
The half-dragon Demon King of Dragon Gate roared as it charged forward, its body like divine iron, impervious to blades and spears, attempting to break through the sword rain and disrupt Li Hao's sword momentum.
But suddenly, the Sword Qi raindrops struck its scales, and the dissipating energy seeped through.
The Demon King felt its strength falter, as if its soul was being drawn away, its body becoming heavy, as if suppressed by the weight of a thousand mountains. With a thud, it fell to the ground, collapsing at the feet of Li Hao's Dharma Image.
Its life force extinguished, it died on the spot!
This bizarre scene shocked the other Demon Kings, who immediately realized that the Sword Tide contained a terrifying killing move, similar to the killing move in Li Hao's War Flag!
It was impossible to see or defend against, and the only way was to avoid being touched!
"Make sure not to let the Sword Qi touch you!"
"He has a strange attack!"
The Demon Kings of the Void Realm were terrified, continuously using their demonic powers to shatter the raindrops, preventing them from getting close.
But the momentum of the Sword Qi raindrops was too strong, and they were forced to retreat, being pushed back a hundred miles by Li Hao's might alone!
Li Hao's Heaven and Earth Dharma Image, after forcing the Demon Kings to retreat, suddenly raised its hand and directed the sword light toward the dark cloud Lu Yuan was condensing.
Lu Yuan was furious, unable to believe that the Demon Kings could not stop Li Hao.
The strange attack also left him in awe, as even he couldn't figure out how the Elder had died.
If Li Hao had killed him with a single punch, he could have accepted it, as it would have been visible. But the raindrop Sword Qi, though powerful, clearly wasn't enough to kill a Demon King.
But he had to die.
Facing the unknown, fear took hold.
At this moment, a sword beam pierced through the dark clouds, and Lu Yuan let out a low growl. He condensed the thunder within the clouds, transforming it into countless lightning whips that entangled and shattered the sword beam.
However, the sword beam also cut through the numerous bolts of lightning, delaying the secret technique's deadly strike that was brewing within the dark clouds.
"Attack! Do you want to wait for death?!"
Lu Yuan roared in anger.
The numerous Demon Kings all looked grim. They knew that if they truly faltered, the situation would only worsen.
"Kill!"
They roared and charged again, splitting into different directions to surround Li Hao.
At this moment, Li Tiangang had arrived and urgently shouted, "Li Hao, run!"
Li Hao, who was preparing to charge at Lu Yuan, furrowed his brow slightly when he heard the call and glanced over.
When he saw Li Tiangang's figure, his brow furrowed again, but he quickly relaxed it and continued his charge toward Lu Yuan without another look.
Seeing that Li Hao ignored him, Li Tiangang was both anxious and angry. He shouted at the Demon Kings, "If you have the guts, come at me!"
"I'll stay with you!"
The White Divine Lord, who had been hesitating, unsure of when to join the battle, knew he would face the wrath of the Dragon Gate if he didn't participate. Yet, he didn't want to die.
Now, seeing Li Tiangang approach, he suddenly found this Human Race general, whom he had hated for over a decade in Yanbei, somewhat endearing. He was glad to have an excuse to join the fight.
Stepping forward, the White Divine Lord quickly blocked Li Tiangang's path.
"Get out of my way!"
Li Tiangang, enraged, raised his hand and swung his Divine Saber.
The White Divine Lord flicked his finger, sending a sword beam that shattered the Divine Saber's light.
He smirked slightly, "Just stepped into the Dao Mind Realm and you dare to be so arrogant. You're a true Li Family member, but compared to your son, you're far from a match for me!"
"Then let's see!"
Li Tiangang's eyes turned cold, and his body erupted with Divine Might, covering him like a blazing flame. His aura swiftly rose as he performed the Nine Steps to Defy Heaven, stepping forward with the force of a mountain.
The White Divine Lord was no longer holding back either. He manifested his true divine form, his massive body lunging at Li Tiangang.
The two instantly engaged in a fierce battle.
On the city wall, Li Xuanli was not idle. He quickly ordered the others to activate the array nodes, taking the opportunity to attack the demons outside the defenses, forcing the Demon Kings to retreat.
With Daoist Qianji providing cover, even if the Demon Kings swiftly reinforced, they could still manage a timely retreat.
Soon, the city wall burst with the momentum of a thousand troops, shouting as they charged out of the city.
The Demon Tide was alarmed. The numerous Three Eternities Realm Great Demons, commanding the demon armies, were enraged to see the Human Race within the defenses daring to charge out. They roared and commanded the demons to attack.
However, Li Hongzhuang led the charge, holding the Heavenly Sky Banner and rushing into the Demon Tide.
He consecutively threw three War Banners, which tore through the Demon Tide. Immediately, surging Sword Qi slashed through, sweeping away countless demons, cutting them down without a chance to resist.
The Three Eternities Realm Demons within were also affected by the War Banners' Sword Qi. In their shock, they used all their strength to fortify their unbreakable bodies, but the Sword Qi sliced through them, severing their physical forms!
Each War Banner was like a deep-water bomb, creating a blood-soaked crater several dozen miles wide in the Demon Tide.
Seeing such terrifying power, the Demon Tide began to panic.
On the other side, Li Hao faced the numerous Demon Kings. He bent down and picked up the half-dead dragon corpse beside him, suddenly swinging it like a whip.
Two resounding thuds echoed as the dragon corpse, acting as a whip, struck the other Demon Kings, leaving them with torn and bleeding flesh.
The Demon Kings, hit by the dragon corpse whip, were flung back, unable to get close.
Li Hao swung the dragon corpse a few times. Seeing that the Demon Kings were still determined to charge at him, he grew truly angry. He suddenly flew out, performing the Heaven and Earth Traceless Technique.
Li Hao stepped forward, instantly appearing before a Demon King and delivering a powerful punch.
The Demon King was taken aback by Li Hao's sudden appearance, his terror reaching its peak. Just as he was about to dodge, Li Hao's punch landed, sending him crashing to the ground.
Li Hao pressed his advantage, unleashing a series of punches that shook the earth, reducing the Demon King's head to a bloody mess.
The other Demon Kings roared in fury and launched their attacks, but Li Hao paid them no mind. His physical body was as formidable as a Divine Weapon that had undergone seven fusions, and these Demon Kings could not even scratch him.
Bang!
Li Hao smashed the Demon King's head to pieces. As the Demon King's Divine Soul tried to escape, Li Hao's Heaven and Earth Dharma Image reached out and grabbed it, then crushed it with a fierce growl.
A Demon King of the Dao Mind Realm stood no chance against Li Hao.
This terrifying display left the other Demon Kings both shocked and terrified. This young man of the Human Race was even more fearsome than the legends that had spread from Tianji Hall, as if he were a reincarnation of an ancient Demon King!
Seeing the other Demon Kings cowed, Li Hao swiftly picked up the limp, bloodied body of the fallen Demon King. His Dharma Image unified with his body, and his strength surged.
His aura flared as he rose into the air, charging toward Lu Yuan.
With a swift motion, he hurled the bloodied Demon King's body into the dark clouds, tearing a gap in the dense mass.
Countless lightning bolts struck the Demon King's body, tearing it apart.
Li Hao then launched a powerful punch at Lu Yuan, drawing in the surrounding formidable energy to form a collapsing fist shadow, which carried a terrifying killing intent as it slammed toward Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan, enraged, could only channel his accumulated power to meet the attack.
Endless lightning coalesced into a thunder dragon, which roared as it charged at Li Hao's body.
Neither defended against the other's attack; they both aimed to strike directly, willing to trade injuries!
Li Hao's eyes were cold and unyielding. He did not dodge as the thunder dragon roared toward him. His flesh and muscles, honed by various Body Refinement Techniques, reached their peak, and waves of energy trembled from his body.
Bang! Bang!
Two resounding impacts echoed. Li Hao was torn apart by the thunder dragon's bite and slammed into the ground, plowing a path for miles.
Lu Yuan, struck by Li Hao's punch, spat blood from his dragon mouth and was sent flying, falling from the sky with a pained howl.
"Li Hao!"
Li Tiangang's eyes widened in shock, his face a mix of anger and horror.
Li Hao's strength exceeded his imagination. Despite facing the combined attacks of multiple Demon Kings, he had managed to severely wound Lu Yuan, an Ultimate Mastery Realm Old Dragon. No wonder he had pursued him all the way here.
How could he have grown so much in just over a year?!
"Daring to be distracted!"
The White Divine Lord roared, suddenly bringing his claw down and slamming Li Tiangang to the ground, causing him to crash into the earth.
Then, he roared again as he dove down, as if intent on unleashing all the wrath he had accumulated over the years of conflict with Yanbei, especially after Li Hao had killed his second life Beyond the Pass, leaving him with no more to spare.
Kill!
His body descended with the force of a thousand tons, tearing Li Tiangang's armor to shreds.
Li Tiangang spat out a mouthful of blood but glared fiercely, unleashing a powerful aura that forced the White Divine Lord to retreat.
The White Divine Lord's eyes narrowed. Li Tiangang was indeed formidable, able to counterattack even against a Fate Reversal Realm opponent like him.
"You Li Family truly deserve to die!"
"But compared to your son, you fall far short."
The White Divine Lord's eyes were cold and piercing. "If your son had been defending Yanbei, would we have needed to fight for over a decade?"
"But we should be grateful. That little monster was only born a decade ago. If he had been born earlier, I might have already fallen to him."
As he spoke, his body erupted with a killing aura, and he charged at Li Tiangang once more.
Li Tiangang's heart raced at his words, his face flickering with various emotions. Seeing the White Divine Lord's approaching figure, he roared and swung his blade again.
