Chapter 1187 Battle Against the Demon King at Crimson Flame Volcano (1)
Red Flame Volcano.
A fierce wind howled atop the mountain, and thick smoke billowed and rose like an ink dragon.
The scorching air seemed to be ignited, and waves of heat rolled in, making one feel as if they were in a furnace.
Visibility became blurred due to the high temperature, and the once clear scene now looked as if it had been distorted by a funhouse mirror, appearing particularly strange and unreal.
In this desolate region, there are strangely shaped rocks everywhere, which are stacked together to form huge cracks.
Every now and then, streams of intensely hot sulfurous steam would emerge from these narrow rock crevices, rising into the air like fiery dragons and quickly spreading, turning the entire sky into an eerie yellowish-brown hue.
In such harsh conditions, Su Xiaoya rushed out of the mountain like a bolt of lightning and landed steadily on the edge of the crater.
She held a sword called the "Chaos Five Elements Sword" tightly in her hand. The sword shimmered with a faint but mysterious light, displaying five different colors: gold, green, blue, red, and yellow, as if the five elements were flowing on it.
This Chaos Five Elements Sword is no ordinary weapon; it is a peerless divine weapon that the system just successfully redeemed for Su Xiaoya!
You should know that this treasure comes from a second-generation immortal from another immortal realm!
The reason this second-generation immortal was willing to exchange such a precious magic treasure for the Immortal Grass was that he wanted to revive his beloved.
It should be noted that this divine sword is a treasure passed down through generations in that second-generation immortal family, making it a unique existence!
Such a rare treasure, how could the system possibly let it go?
Almost as soon as that unlucky second-generation immortal listed it on the marketplace trading platform, the system swiftly and decisively snapped it up, taking it for itself without hesitation.
There's nothing we can do; the system has special permissions for each of them.
In addition, the system store already has everything, and there are many hosts from different dimensions to choose from. Therefore, the system will naturally not easily let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
After all, it's really hard to come across a silly second-generation immortal like that. If we miss this opportunity, we probably won't encounter such a good thing again!
Holding the Chaos Five Elements Sword, Su Xiaoya felt a surge of pride, as if the whole world was under her control!
She looked down at the demon kings surging towards her in the boiling lava lake below, then turned to look at the demon kings besieging Su Mingyi, Huang Niao, and Xuan She in the crater. Her brows furrowed slightly, and she snorted coldly, "Hmph! It seems they came prepared."
Yu Shuheng's figure appeared and disappeared in the spatial rift, like an immortal descending to earth. The silver-white spatial sword in his hand hummed, as if telling of his power.
"Seventeen demon king-level auras, ambushed in four directions." His voice was calm as water, yet it struck everyone's heart like a heavy hammer, unable to conceal a trace of solemnity.
Sure enough, their decision to rush out was a wise one.
With so many demon kings attacking him, it would be difficult for Su Mingyi to avoid injury, and even...
When Su Mingyi saw that Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng had safely escaped from the mountain, his worries vanished instantly. He fought with all his might, and the Annihilation Sword hovered in front of him like a ghost. The pitch-black sword was like a bottomless black hole, capable of swallowing all the light around it.
Seeing that Langlang had also rushed out, the four of them quickly reunited like birds returning to their nests, with Huangniao and Xuanshe following closely behind.
Su Xiaoya raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a charming smile. With a swift swing of her longsword, five-colored light shot into the sky like a rainbow piercing the sun, transforming into a huge five-element array that tightly enveloped the four of them.
Is this the final test?
Ha ha!
How could she allow her companion to be in danger?
The Five Elements Formation rises like a majestic mountain, with the five forces of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth circulating like a yin-yang symbol, forming an indestructible protective barrier.
Just then, the volcanic rock wall suddenly exploded!
Seven figures rushed in from different directions like shooting stars. The leader was a giant lava ape that was ten feet tall. Its body was covered with scorching magma, like a moving volcano. Every step it took left a charred footprint on the ground, as if the earth was about to melt under its feet.
"Humans, die!" The giant ape's roar was like thunder, deafening, and its sound waves rolled by like a raging storm.
Uh!
Have the demon kings become so cunning?
They came for the Taotie Blood Pill, yet they deliberately set a trap involving conflict between different races.
"Here it comes!" A cold glint flashed in Su Mingyi's eyes, and the Annihilation Sword, like a black lightning bolt, pierced straight for the giant ape's brow with lightning speed.
The giant ape neither dodged nor evaded; its massive, lava-like paws slammed into the sword light like mountains.
With a deafening roar, as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had split apart, the Annihilation Sword Qi was actually shattered by three-tenths. Su Mingyi was struck as if by a heavy blow, and he staggered back three steps, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"Be careful, this beast has cultivated for a thousand years and possesses profound demonic power!" Su Mingyi whispered.
Yu Shuheng's figure flashed, disappearing from the spot like a ghost. The next moment, he appeared behind the giant ape as if by teleportation, and the space sword silently pierced towards its back like a ghost.
However, just as the sword tip was about to touch the giant ape, three crimson demonic eyes suddenly opened on the back of the giant ape, shooting out a blazing beam of light, like a fire dragon emerging from the abyss, baring its fangs and claws as it pounced on Yu Shuheng.
"Spatial Refraction!" Yu Shuheng reacted extremely quickly, and several spatial barriers instantly appeared in front of him, like an indestructible fortress.
After passing through the first two layers, the beam of light was finally deflected by the third spatial barrier, like a cannonball that was bounced off, and struck the mountain wall hard, blasting out a huge lava crater. The crater was filled with churning magma and steaming hot air.
At this critical moment, Langlang suddenly widened his eyes, clenched his fists tightly, and a powerful force burst forth from his hands.
The flames that had been burning fiercely suddenly became violent, as if they had received some kind of command, and lunged forward like an enraged beast.
In the blink of an eye, these flames gathered together, forming a huge and mighty fire dragon.
This fire dragon was entirely fiery red, its scales shimmering with dazzling light, and the flames it spewed from its mouth were incredibly hot, as if it wanted to burn the entire world to ashes.
"Taste the real flames!" Langlang roared, and with a wave of his arm, the fire dragon immediately soared into the air, sweeping towards the lava giant ape with lightning speed.
Despite the terrifying attack, the Lava Giant Ape remained fearless, standing firmly in place, awaiting the arrival of the fire dragon.
As the fire dragon approached, it suddenly opened its blood-red maw and swallowed the entire fire dragon whole!
However, something unexpected happened—just a short while later, the dragon's belly began to swell violently, and then with a loud bang, the dragon exploded completely!
At this moment, the Lava Giant Ape appeared unharmed in the flames. Not only that, it raised its head to the sky and let out a deafening roar.
As the long howl resounded, the scattered flames seemed to be summoned and gathered towards it, quickly merging into its body.
Seeing this scene, Langlang was horrified: My God... it can actually devour flames!
Su Xiaoya's eyes narrowed: "It's not devouring, it's fusion! It's a fire-attribute demon king, ordinary flames can't harm it. Use the method of the five elements' mutual restraint!"
Holding a longsword, she moved with the grace of an immortal. The blue light emanating from the Chaos Five Elements Sword was dazzling, like a pearl in the deep sea, radiating endless brilliance. A surge of icy sword energy, like a raging tsunami, crashed towards the giant ape.
At the same time, Yu Shuheng activated the Spatial Sword Technique again, and dozens of spatial rifts, like sharp blades, crisscrossed, blocking the giant ape's retreat.
The giant ape, enraged, slammed its fists into the ground like iron hammers, and a wall of magma rose into the air like a giant dragon, colliding violently with the icy sword energy.
"laugh……"
When water and fire meet, it's as if the two poles of yin and yang in the universe are fiercely clashing, steaming up a sky full of white mist, like thick smoke, obscuring the view.
At this thrilling moment, the other six demon kings attacked simultaneously!
A blue-eyed wind wolf, like a flash of blue lightning, pounced straight at Langlang with lightning speed;
The poisonous mist spewed by the three-headed purple-scaled python was like a purple poisonous cloud, covering Su Mingyi from all directions.
Two Iron-feathered Eagle Kings circled in the air like two fighter jets, waiting for the right moment to swoop down like hungry tigers pouncing on their prey.
The last and smallest Shadow Cat Demon King, like a ghost, completely blended into the shadows and disappeared without a trace.
"Watch out for those lurking in the shadows!" Yu Shuheng shouted a warning to his companions while fiercely battling the lava giant ape.
Su Mingyi's Annihilation Sword trembled violently, as if it were a ferocious beast awakening, exuding a suffocating aura of death.
"Nirvana Domain, open!" With his angry shout, the space within a ten-zhang radius centered on him instantly became deathly silent, as if time itself had stopped. The poisonous mist, upon entering the domain, seemed to be swallowed up by an invisible hand and began to dissipate on its own.
The three-headed purple-scaled python felt an unprecedented threat and tried to retreat hastily, but it was too late.
Su Mingyi's figure flickered like a ghost, and the next moment he appeared on the middle snake head and slashed down with his sword!
The black sword energy was as sharp as lightning, easily slicing through the hard scales as if cutting tofu, and the snake's head fell off.
The remaining two snakes let out mournful hisses, like a lament, and launched a frenzied counterattack.
Su Mingyi's figure moved like a phantom among the snakes, each sword strike like a deadly venomous sting, accurately hitting vital points.
In less than three breaths, the three-headed python had turned into a cold corpse.
On the other side, the battle between Langlang and Fenglang was in full swing.
The wind wolf was as fast as lightning, and Langlang's fire attacks repeatedly missed.
"You like speed, huh?" A sly glint flashed in Langlang's eyes. He suddenly changed his strategy, no longer chasing the Wind Wolf, but instead spreading the flames evenly in the surrounding air.
Confused, the wind wolf accelerated its charge again, but suddenly slowed down as it passed through the area of flames—the flames in the air consumed oxygen, creating a partial vacuum!
It's now!
Langlang clasped his hands together, and all the flames instantly converged, trapping the wind wolf within. "Flame Cage!"
The wind wolf struggled desperately, but the fiery cage tightened more and more, eventually engulfing it completely.
However, the joy of victory was short-lived. Suddenly, a shadow rose from Langlang's feet, and sharp claws aimed straight for his back!
"Spatial displacement!" Yu Shuheng's voice rang out, and Langlang instantly swapped positions with a piece of volcanic rock.
The Shadow Cat Demon King's claws left three deep marks on the rock.
Because Yu Shuheng was distracted, the Lava Giant Ape found an opportunity and suddenly threw a punch, which slammed hard into Yu Shuheng's chest.
The attack was incredibly powerful, sending Yu Shuheng flying through the air. He was forced to retreat rapidly and crashed heavily into several huge rocks, shattering them into pieces. Yu Shuheng himself coughed up blood and was seriously injured.
"Shuheng!" Upon seeing this scene, Su Xiaoya couldn't help but cry out in alarm. She was extremely anxious, and the Five Elements Array, which had been shining with five-colored light, suddenly became dim and lifeless.
In the blink of an eye, the two Iron Feather Eagle Kings, who had been waiting for an opportunity, seized the perfect chance. They swooped down from the sky at the same time like lightning, their sharp, steel-like talons reaching straight for the fire element, the weakest point in the Five Elements Formation.
Faced with such a fierce attack, Su Xiaoya gritted her teeth and forcefully plunged the Chaos Five Elements Sword in her hand into the ground beneath her feet without hesitation.
Then, she chanted: "The five elements reverse, fire generates earth, earth generates metal, metal generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire—life goes on and on!"
As she finished speaking, the entire Five Elements Formation began to undergo a wondrous transformation.
The fire element, which was originally relatively weak, was greatly enhanced in the blink of an eye. The two Iron Feather Eagle Kings' powerful attack not only failed, but was also bounced back as if they had hit an invisible shield.
However, this also had a significant impact on Su Xiaoya herself. Her face was as pale as paper, and cold sweat poured down her forehead, clearly indicating that the attack had consumed a large amount of her spiritual energy.
On the other side, after successfully killing the three ferocious pythons, Su Mingyi did not hesitate and immediately turned around to rush to the aid of Su Xiaoya and the others.
Holding the Annihilation Sword, he flashed into a black streak, rushing towards the two Iron Feather Eagle Kings who had just suffered a setback, and unleashing his ultimate technique to repel them.
At the same time, Langlang acted swiftly, channeling all its magical power into its body, and in the blink of an eye, a long whip of blazing flames appeared in its hand.
Then, it swung the blazing whip and lashed it fiercely at the Shadow Cat Demon King, who was hiding in the shadows.
