As Xu Jingming used the divine power, Inescapable Net, to trap Mountain Lord Dongming, he immediately instructed Wu Qi, âUncle Qi, leave this place quickly. The further you hide, the better.â
âGot it. Be careful, Young Master.â Wu Qi nodded.
Xu Jingming formed a hand seal, and a stream of starlight wrapped around Wu Qi, instantly streaking him across the sky and sending him flying several kilometers away.
After cultivating many Demon Vanquishing techniques given to him by Senior Brother Redeye, Xu Jingming easily cultivated many spells to the divine power level with the knowledge he had accumulated from the Primordial Star Conjecture.
Be it movement techniques, protective techniques, transformation techniques, or array formations, he knew a little about them.
Xu Jingming wasnât distracted in combat with Uncle Qi evacuated.
âTo think you care so much about your servant.â Mountain Lord Dongmingâs arms turned into ferocious snakes. Under the entanglement and tugging, he finally tore open the Inescapable Netâs ropes.
His expression turned much more solemn.
Even with his strength, he was trapped for a few seconds. This net was indeed terrifying.
âMountain Lord Dongming, youâre just being suicidal to come knocking on my door today.â The two spear segments in Xu Jingmingâs hands were connected as he stared coldly at Mountain Lord Dongming.
âHaha, your strength has indeed increased quite a bit in the past few months, but youâre still a little weak compared to me.â Mountain Lord Dongming sneered. Black water then appeared around him, and it spread across more than half of the residence, trapping Xu Jingming.
Xu Jingming held his spear, and the runes on it lit up, drawing upon the power of heaven and earth.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Five-colored bolts of lightning struck down, and every bolt of five-colored lightning mobilized by his fifth-realm Dharmic powers was extremely powerful! Every strike was enough to wipe out Demon God Green Lake, and here they were delivering one strike after another.
Although Xu Jingming could instantly cast Quint-Bolt, it drained him mentally. By relying on the runes imprinted on an artifact, it could greatly reduce his mental burden.
Xu Jingming didnât show any mercy and triggered a total of 12 five-colored lightning bolts in a row, turning the entire residence into a sea of lightning.
âWhat?â Mountain Lord Dongming was appalled.
Even if a Demon Vanquisher could instantly cast a spell, they had to slow down before casting it a second time. However, Xu Jingming also cultivated many Demon Vanquishing techniques from the Primordial Star lineage. He also had a knack for continuous casting, allowing him to use a Dharma artifact to deliver 12 consecutive strikes of the five-colored lightning in a very short period of time.
Xu Jingmingâs fifth-realm Demon Vanquishing Dharmic powers were weaker than Mountain Lord Dongmingâs powerful demonic aura. However, a Quint-Bolt divine power spell at greater mastery was far more brilliant than Mountain Lord Dongmingâs moves. It allowed him to fight opponents above his level.
This is a tough nut to crack. The black water released by Mountain Lord Dongming was completely obliterated by the five-colored lightning. Even the entire residence was reduced to ruins by the lightning.
Mountain Lord Dongming himself suffered seven consecutive strikes of the five-colored lightning.
âŚ
Wang Cheng wants Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming dead. On a street in the distance, the white-robed woman watched from afar. But from the looks of it, this Demon Vanquisher Wu Mingâs strength is on the same level as his. Itâs difficult to tell who will win this battle.
At this moment, the intense collision between Demon Vanquishing Dharmic powers and demonic aura and the continuous eruption of the five-colored lightning alarmed many Demon Vanquishers in the prefecture capital.
Huh? Qi Chen, Lord Liu of the Demon Vanquishing Division, Elder Nian of the Wind Shadow Sect, and the others flew into the air and watched the battle from afar. Their expressions were solemn when they saw the battle scene.
Itâs Mountain Lord Dongming. The thin-haired Fang Nian was also alarmed as he looked into the distance. Five-colored lightning struck down, and the world rumbled as demonic aura whistled. As for Brother Wu Ming, his strength is actually comparable to that of Mountain Lord Dongming. He has the strength of a sixth-realm Demon Vanquisher.
The two of them are far stronger than me. I canât join this battle at all. Fang Nian knew this very well. With his strength, he would be courting death if he interfered.
Lord Liu of the Demon Vanquishing Division watched the battle from afar and also understood. Mountain Lord Dongming and Mr. Wu Ming are on par. Only a sixth-realm Demon Vanquisher can participate in a clash at this level.
âAh.â Qi Chenâs expression changed when he saw this. Mountain Lord Dongming has made a move? I canât help with this level of confrontation. I have to get my sisterâs help.
Although his sister, Qi Xiao, wasnât online much, she had indeed reached the sixth realm.
Qi Chen immediately contacted his sister.
When they saw the battle scene in front of them, Elder Fang Nian, Lord Liu of the Demon Vanquishing Division, Patriarch Qi Chen, and the other Demon Vanquishers watching the battle from afar imagined that Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming was at the sixth realm.
Firstly, the top Demon Vanquishing Dharmic powers of the Primordial Star lineage were purer than most Demon Vanquishing techniques.
Secondly, with the Primordial Star Conjectureâs Light Rays as the foundation, the divine power moves he figured out had reached greater mastery! It also far exceeded the moves of Demon Vanquishers at the same realm.
Combining these two aspects⌠As a peerless genius of the Primordial Research Institute, although Xu Jingming was only at the fifth realm, he indeed had the strength of a sixth-realm Demon Vanquisher.
******
Five-colored lightning bolts struck Mountain Lord Dongmingâs demon body, and his demon body suffused black light. His hardened skin allowed him to only suffer some light injuries after blocking seven bolts of five-colored lightning, and his wounds quickly healed.
âYou canât beat me.â Mountain Lord Dongming turned into a black wind and lunged over. When he grabbed Xu Jingming, the ten fingers on his hands expanded into ten long snakes.
The ten 100-feet-long black snakes attempted to strangle Xu Jingming. However, Xu Jingmingâs figure turned into starlight and dodged the pounce in a flash.
Whoosh.
Meanwhile, tentacles separated from Mountain Lord Dongmingâs back as more than ten of them suddenly enveloped Xu Jingming.
Mountain Lord Dongmingâs body can transform? Xu Jingming frowned slightly. When he turned into starlight and dodged again, he cast Inescapable Net with a thought.
A huge golden net once again enveloped and restrained Mountain Lord Dongming.
âDamn it.â Mountain Lord Dongming had a taste of the Inescapable Net once and knew that it would take some effort to tear it apart.
âCompared to Demon Vanquishers, youâre still too stupid,â Xu Jingming said. At the same time, he held his spear and smote down with six more bolts of five-colored lightning.
Why is he so much stronger than a few months ago? Mountain Lord Dongming felt a little aggrieved.
He guessed that Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming mightâve improved, but it had only been a few months! Even if Wu Ming increased his strength by two or three times, he was still confident in crushing him. But once they fought⌠he realized that the former had undergone a tremendous change!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Amidst his puzzlement, he had to deal with the predicament in front of him. The Inescapable Net bound his body, and the five-colored lightning struck. Xu Jingming even charged over in close combat with his spear, causing Mountain Lord Dongming to be a little flustered.
Xu Jingmingâs spearmanship was superb to begin with! With the combination of many divine powers, Mountain Lord Dongming was stabbed in the chest the moment they clashed.
Boom!
Lightning flashed on the spear, and five-colored lightning erupted from Mountain Lord Dongmingâs body, wreaking destruction from the inside.
Wang Chengâs face turned pale. Although his demon body appeared intact on the surface, his internal injuries werenât light. Not good. Am I going to fail?
Master is watching from the side. Itâs too embarrassing for me to lose. Iâll give it my all! Mountain Lord Dongming roared angrily as arms began to grow under his armpits and on his back. His eight arms pulled frantically, blocking Xu Jingmingâs two strikes and tearing open the Inescapable Net again.
The moment he broke free, Mountain Lord Dongmingâs body suddenly expanded, and his arm expanded in a bid to grab Xu Jingming.
Starlight Evasion!
Starlight flashed, and afterimages appeared around him. Multiple Xu Jingmings were scattered across the ruins of the residence, and all of them held spears as they stared coldly at Mountain Lord Dongming.
Starlight Evasion was a divine power Xu Jingming had reached lesser mastery with.
Using Astral Divine Body together with Starlight Evasion had excellent effects.
âWhat?â Mountain Lord Dongming unleashed his demonic power with all his might and grew many arms. He also unleashed his maximum speed in a bid to grab Xu Jingming.
However, he discovered that⌠the other party was too slippery! His opponentâs movement speed and agility completely exceeded his, and he couldnât catch him at all.
I canât catch him. Does that mean I can only take a beating? Mountain Lord Dongming felt that things were going south.
As he was thinking, a huge golden net descended again. With the five-colored lightning striking, Xu Jingming closed in again.
With the entrapment of the net, Xu Jingming attacked at close range!
Without a net? He would temporarily maintain a distance.
Such a combat method made Mountain Lord Dongming unable to see any hope of victory.
Pu.
The spear stabbed into Mountain Lord Dongmingâs thigh, and five-colored lightning erupted from the inside, blasting open the thigh. A large amount of demonic aura dissipated, and the severed thigh quickly turned into black water that fused into Mountain Lord Dongmingâs stump, allowing him to grow another.
However, the vanquished demonic aura was genuine damage.
I-I canât defeat him! Although Mountain Lord Dongming couldnât accept the fact, he had to admit that he had no chance of turning the tables. The longer he delayed, the worse his injuries would be. His body would probably perish if he fought any longer.
Demon Vanquishers are indeed cunning. Mountain Lord Dongming gritted his teeth.
âMaster!â Mountain Lord Dongming couldnât care less about his reputation. He glared at Xu Jingming ferociously and shouted loudly, his voice resounding for kilometers, âIâm not strong enough. Master, please help me kill this Demon Vanquisher!â
âWhat?â Xu Jingmingâs expression couldnât help but change when he heard this shout. Master? Mountain Lord Dongming has a master? Heâs already a peak Earth Demon. What is his masterâs strength? A Heaven Demon?
Mountain Lord Dongmingâs strength was on par with his. He was strong because his divine powers were profound, and his combat combination was more ingenious.
Going from Earth Demon to Heaven Demon was a qualitative change!
Xu Jingming knew very well that just like how he could kill Demon God Green Lake in one strike, a Heaven Demon could also kill him in one strike.
Will I need to establish a new account? Xu Jingming was momentarily alarmed. He didnât have any confidence in dealing with a Heaven Demon.
âŚ
Yes, Xu Jingmingâs guess was rightâMountain Lord Dongmingâs master was indeed a Heaven Demon.
On a distant street.
The white-robed woman watched the battle from afar. When she heard Mountain Lord Dongming finally cry out for help aggrievedly, she couldnât help but shake her head slightly. Even if itâs not intentional, for a peak Earth Demon to be forced to seek help?
This disciple of mine is really useless. If I hadnât happened to be here, he would probably be dead today. The white-robed woman smiled. And my presence here is this Demon Vanquisherâs misfortune.
She immediately wanted to attack, but the white-robed woman stopped just as she was about to take a step. Her expression changed as she saw a blurry black shadow appear on her left.
This blurry black shadow floated in the air, but it didnât seem to exist in this world. Its aura didnât leak out.
The white-robed woman was a Heaven Demon after all, and she was knowledgeable. She immediately bowed slightly and said humbly, âGreetings, Senior.â
âAs a Heaven Demon, are you planning on interfering in the battle between these kids?â The blurry black shadow floated in the air as a deep voice sounded.
âIs this Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming your prey, Senior?â The white-robed woman immediately came to a realization. Demon Vanquishers aimed to refine demons, but some powerful Heaven Demons⌠also wanted to refine Demon Vanquishers to strengthen their obsessions!
Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming had risen rapidly. It was also possible for him to be targeted by a powerful Heaven Demon.
âSenior, itâs my fault. I donât have any plans regarding this Demon Vanquisher,â the white-robed woman said respectfully.
âHe may be prey, but a Heaven Demon like you is also equally delicious.â The blurry black shadowâs voice carried a hint of excitement.
The white-robed womanâs expression changed, and her body instantly exploded, turning into countless white lights that fled in all directions.
Whoosh!
The blurry black shadow suddenly expanded, and the speed of its expansion exceeded the white lightâs escape speed. It expanded and enveloped an area of 500 meters, enveloping all the white specks of light.
Then, it contracted again. It returned to its original black blob, but a white figure was struggling inside.
