Chapter 48: The Channel Opens

Chapter 48: The Channel Opens

After sending Li Tian flying with a single punch, the Refining Void Realm Horned Demon on the altar looked at the gradually stabilizing vortex channel in the sky and burst into wild laughter.

"Hahaha, the channel is finally open! Warriors of the Demon Race, descend! This is our true paradise."

"Damn, so arrogant."

Zhang Yuhe simply could not tolerate this.

He could tell that although the two-realm channel was already open and slowly stabilizing,

it had not truly formed yet, and the Demon Race from the opposite side could not cross over temporarily.

Most importantly, the Horned Demon on the altar was still holding a Formation Plate in his hand, constantly forming hand seals.

In other words, this Horned Demon could not move for the time being.

It was practically a stationary target.

If they didn't deal with him now, when would they wait?

Zhang Yuhe quickly formed hand seals, and the invisible Sword Qi filling the sky swept horizontally toward the Horned Demon on the altar.

At the same time, he did not forget to guide the Gui-Water Lightning-Guiding Formation, causing bolts of lightning to rapidly strike down at the Horned Demon.

Standing on the altar, the Horned Demon exuded violent Devilish Qi all over his body.

At this moment, Li Tian had already arrived by Zhang Yuhe's side, though his face was deathly pale.

Clearly, the blow that the Horned Demon had used to send him flying earlier had made him feel very uncomfortable.

The Horned Demon stood on the altar, stubbornly withstanding the attacks of the invisible Sword Qi and lightning.

The Devilish Qi around his body was completely scattered by the lightning and Sword Qi, and some shallow bloody wounds were also cleaved onto his body.

The Demon Race naturally possessed powerful Physical Bodies, and the Horned Demon was an exceptional standout among them.

Not to mention this was a Refining Void Realm Horned Demon.

The Horned Demon stubbornly withstood a massive amount of invisible Sword Qi and continuous thunder and lightning attacks, yet he surprisingly did not suffer too much damage.

"Is this fucking guy an iron vajra?"

Zhang Yuhe muttered inwardly, but the actions in his hands showed not the slightest intention of stopping.

If they didn't take advantage of the Horned Demon's inability to move to severely injure him first, how could they fight later?

Fighting a stationary target was already this much of a hassle; once the Horned Demon started moving later, wouldn't they have no way out?

Li Tian, standing nearby, also released a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure Flying Sword, slashing straight toward the Horned Demon.

"Bugs, you're courting death."

The Horned Demon on the altar was thoroughly enraged.

He turned his head to look at the two of them, then threw a punch. A massive fist shadow crossed the sky and lunged straight toward them.

However, the invisible Sword Qi stimulated by the Nine Heavens Primordial Chaos Sword Formation blocked the way right in front.

The massive fist shadow shattered patches of invisible Sword Qi, and when it was still half the distance away from them, it slowly and gradually dissipated.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Yuhe couldn't help but chuckle.

"Is that it?"

A Refining Void Realm Horned Demon was nothing much after all.

"Hurry up, take advantage of the fact that the channel hasn't opened yet to beat this Horned Demon to death directly."

After throwing a punch, the Horned Demon on the altar also knew he couldn't do anything to the two of them for the time being.

Unless he was willing to step down from the altar.

However, if he did that, his idea of opening the channel would be completely shattered.

Before the channel stabilized, he had to stubbornly endure the attacks of the two.

"Hmph."

The Horned Demon urged his Devilish Qi to form layers of defensive shields, and then continued to focus on the Formation Plate in his hand.

Merely pure Devilish Qi shields could not provide much defensive effect.

Or rather, the attack power of the two Formations controlled by Zhang Yuhe was too strong, and the attack frequency was too fast.

The newly formed defensive shields were instantly beaten into scattering everywhere.

The Horned Demon completely lay flat.

Facing the attacks of the two without paying any attention, the bloody wounds on his body became more and more numerous and increasingly deeper.

However, these injuries were temporarily not fatal.

"Senior Brother, do you have any major ultimate moves?"

Zhang Yuhe turned back and asked Li Tian beside him.

It wouldn't do for the two of them to scrape him like this, if they couldn't severely injure the Horned Demon.

Once the Horned Demon freed up his hands, wouldn't he beat them into the ground?

Li Tian shook his head and said,

"Ultimate moves naturally exist, but this Horned Demon's strength is simply too strong. He is not an ordinary Refining Void Realm Cultivator; he is at least in the Void Refining Middle Stage, so I estimate we can't do anything to him."

"Why care about so much? If you have an ultimate move, use it first."

Zhang Yuhe was somewhat speechless. At a time like this, why still hide and tuck things away?

Regardless of whether they could kill the Horned Demon, any usable ultimate moves should be used up.

Were they saving them for the New Year?

"Alright."

Li Tian didn't talk nonsense either. He only saw him pull out a talisman paper, upon which a glowing small knife was carved.

This was a Tier 7 talisman paper.

Li Tian waved the talisman paper in his hand, and it transformed into a huge saber phantom, flashing with dazzling light.

The saber phantom swept across the sky, as if it wanted to split the sky into two halves.

The blade light instantly appeared on the altar.

Seeing the blade light arrive, the Horned Demon did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

He swung his fist, blasting it toward the saber phantom.

Boom…

The fist shadow and blade light collided, erupting with dazzling light.

When the light dispersed, it was seen that the Horned Demon's right arm had disappeared.

"Haha, he has finally been severely injured."

Seeing that the Horned Demon was missing a right arm, Zhang Yuhe couldn't help feeling immensely joyful.

Li Tian was reliable after all, unexpectedly carrying a Tier 7 talisman paper with him.

This thing was extremely precious.

As far as he knew, Talisman Makers above Tier 7 were very few across the entire Dao Saint Sect.

Due to cultivation limits, he couldn't draw Tier 7 talisman papers either.

Zhang Yuhe's various crafting skills were currently still at the Tier 6 level.

He would need to wait until his cultivation made a Breakthrough before his skills could make corresponding progress.

The talisman paper Li Tian took out was quite extraordinary, not an ordinary Tier 7 offensive talisman paper.

The blade light transformed by the talisman paper severely injured the powerful Horned Demon with a single strike.

Seeing that the Horned Demon was already severely injured, Zhang Yuhe controlled the Sword Qi and lightning, stepping up his attacks against the Horned Demon.

Not only that, but he also slowly shrank the range of the Nine Heavens Primordial Chaos Sword Formation.

Previously, it was to break the defensive Formation of Mirror Void City, which was why the sword Formation was deployed around the city.

Now the city's defensive Formation was gone.

Not only that, but the Cultivators of the He and Li families in the city had also long since died completely.

Even the buildings in the city, except for the altar in the center of the city, were all razed to the ground by the aftermath of the battle between both sides.

Throughout the entire Mirror Void City, besides the two of them, there was only a single living entity left: the Horned Demon.

He naturally had to compress the sword Formation.

The smaller the range of the Nine Heavens Primordial Chaos Sword Formation, the denser the invisible Sword Qi it could stimulate.

And the greater the power would be.

"Ahhh…"

The dense invisible Sword Qi crazily swept over the Horned Demon's body, and the effect of powerful scraping significantly increased quite a bit.

Missing his right arm, the Horned Demon let out a wild roar. His body was already covered with a large number of wounds deep enough to see the bones.

Zhang Yuhe believed that if this stationary target still didn't move, he would be able to beat him to death immediately.

Suddenly, roars came from the sky, and squads of the Demon Race poured out from the vortex.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Yuhe's heart tightened.

"They're finally here."

However, what he was worried about was not these newly appeared Demon Race members.

Sweeping his gaze across these Demon Race members, most of them only had Foundation Establishment cultivation, there weren't many Golden Core realm Demon Race members, and there were a few Nascent Soul realm Demon Race members.

As for Demon Race members above the Nascent Soul realm, there was not a single one.

Li Tian's information was very accurate.

The channel opened by the Heavenly Dipper Realm-Breaking Grand Formation truly could only allow Demon Race members below the Nascent Soul realm to pass through.

Facing these Demon Race members, he didn't even need to attack them deliberately; relying on the aftermath of the Formation alone, he could sweep down a large area.

To be honest, these Demon Race members were purely here to deliver their heads.

He didn't know why the Demon Race liked rushing over to Yu Fantian so much.

Wasn't it good to honestly stay in the Demon Realm?

The newly appeared Demon Race members were not scary.

But as the channel completely stabilized, the Horned Demon on the altar finally freed up his hands.

His cold gaze swept across the two of them, and then he lunged straight over, roaring loudly at the same time.

"Bugs, go to hell."
