856: Chapter 242_4 856: Chapter 242_4 Although he was ambushed, his injuries were not severe.
He had become the Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect during the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, and his strength was the strongest in the entire Sun and Moon Demon Sect, far surpassing others.
Even though he was ambushed, he quickly recovered and was still able to overpower his opponent.
But unexpectedly, his opponent directly self-destructed their Golden Core.
Both were at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection and the area was quite cramped; it was almost impossible for someone to escape unscathed from the other’s self-destruction of their Golden Core.
He suffered heavy injuries due to his opponent’s self-destruction of the Golden Core.
Having no choice, he had to stay here to heal his wounds, but he never imagined that while he was healing, Cao Zhen would appear here.
Even in his prime, he had no confidence in defeating Cao Zhen, let alone now.
So, his only option was to flee, to escape from here as fast as possible.
Behind the Sun and Moon Demon, a massive Golden Core formed by ten different phenomena emerged.
Under the immense pressure from Cao Zhen, his aura instantly surged to the peak he could currently achieve.
While he hurried forward, he swung his arm violently backward.
Suddenly, thick Demonic Qi overflowed.
There were no gems or lamps in this corridor, but the smooth walls around still shone as bright as daylight.
And with the onslaught of this Demonic Qi, the entire corridor plunged into darkness.
The Demonic Qi seemed to fill and compress the path ahead of Cao Zhen.
Behind Cao Zhen, six different phenomena Golden Cores along with a Heretical Golden Core had all emerged.
Among these, one of the different phenomena Golden Cores suddenly burst into brilliant light.
As he swung his arm, suddenly, bolts of lightning shot out.
The corridor, which had just darkened, was instantly illuminated brightly by the lightning.
The Purple Thunder of the Five-thunder Righteous Method was the first to strike, colliding directly with the black Demonic Qi.
In an instant, a sound like thunder striking a mountain peak erupted, and the black Demonic Qi swiftly parted, followed by a second, a third… more bolts of lightning continuously fell.
In just a moment, the thick Demonic Qi was completely dispersed by the lightning.
Lightning shattered the darkness!
The Sun Moon Demon was already at the entrance of the corridor.
In the next moment, he would have burst out, but behind him a bolt of lightning struck down fiercely.
Wounded as he was, how could he possibly outrun the Thunderbolt Proficiency?
The lightning struck down, blasting his body deeper into the corridor ahead.
Cao Zhen pursued closely; however, the next moment, he froze as if he had encountered an invisible wall blocking his path.
He couldn’t go further!
“What is this?
Are there people in the corridor ahead as well?
Together with the Sun Moon Demon, are there two people ahead, so I can’t enter?”
Cao Zhen couldn’t comprehend the situation at all; what was happening?
Before, we walked for so many days without encountering a single person.
Now, there’s someone in every corridor we enter; is everyone squeezed into the same corridor?
If there’s someone else in this corridor, and if that person is also from the Third Prince, then perhaps the two sides won’t be able to fight.
If so, there’s no way forward for me.
If it’s someone from the Fourth Prince, the two will definitely clash, and my opportunity will come.
Cao Zhen stood at the entrance, his hands placed on that invisible barrier, ready to enter as soon as the barrier disappeared.
At the other end of the corridor, as soon as the Sun Moon Demon entered, he saw a familiar figure facing him.
“Blood Sword Eleven!”
The Fourth Prince’s men consisted of two groups, one recruited later, each with their own names.
Another group had been with the Fourth Prince since youth, all identified by numbers.
How had so many of the Fourth Prince’s men entered this place?
The Sun Moon Demon’s heart skipped a beat.
Just as he opened his mouth to speak, Blood Sword Eleven swung his sword down.
“To think I would encounter you here, especially when you’re heavily wounded.
Well then, die!
I will cut off your head to claim my reward from the Fourth Prince.”
The Sun Moon Demon had been wounded, and had just been blasted by Cao Zhen’s thunder.
Upon entering this space, his blood and qi were in turmoil.
As Blood Sword Eleven’s sword fell, he tried to defend, but as he negotiated his mana, the tumult in his body surged violently again, stalling the concentration of his mana, and the bloody longsword cut down.
This bloody longsword, as if saturated with countless lifeblood, cut through the air, and a river of blood cascaded down from it.
Although the Sun Moon Demon was of the Demon Sect, the Demonic Qi in Blood Sword Eleven’s strike seemed even denser than the Sun Moon Demon’s.
At the same time, his sword was incredibly sharp.
As it cut through, a low moaning sound resonated in the corridor, as if the air itself was split in half in an instant.
The sharp blade sliced through, cutting directly across the Sun Moon Demon’s neck.
The next moment, the Sun Moon Demon’s head flew off.
Even though his head was severed, his eyes remained wide open, seemingly in disbelief that he, the current Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, could die like this!
