Chapter 342 - 183: Heavy Losses for the Demon Fiends, Gu Yun Takes Action

The sky was dim, a scarlet glow shining like a moon.

Thousands of thunderbolts tore through the sky like an act of divine punishment. They carried a vast Divine Power, a force capable of shattering anything, and smashed violently toward the massive scarlet Barrier that spanned ten thousand miles.

"BOOM!"

The thousands of thunderbolts instantly struck the scarlet Barrier, unleashing a deafening roar that shook the heavens. Ripples radiated outward from the point of impact, and the space for a thousand miles around trembled violently.

But Gu Yun’s gaze hardened.

He saw that after being bombarded by the thousands of thunderbolts, the scarlet Barrier merely trembled but showed no signs of damage. The extreme toughness of this Barrier made Gu Yun’s heart sink. ’This Barrier... its defense is simply astonishing.’

Just as Gu Yun’s expression turned grim,

Inside the Barrier,

"BOOM!!"

Xue Ying moved like a bolt of lightning. He balled his scale-covered hand into a fist, which screamed through the air enveloped in a terrifying, dark-red Demon Qi. Piercing through space with the shriek of Powerful Qi, it shot violently toward Ye Xuantian’s head!

Behind him, the Nether Tiger descended from the air, brandishing its Battle Halberd. Demonic Qi surged as it carried an astonishing power and chopped down violently at Ye Xuantian!

Suspended in the void, Ye Xuantian’s long hair danced wildly. His deep eyes were incomparably cold, a powerful Dao Rhythm surged around him, and Magical Power circulated within his body.

He clenched one hand into a fist, gathering a terrifying starlight Dao Rhythm before punching through the air. His fist slammed into Xue Ying’s scaly one, then sent Xue Ying flying back with unstoppable Momentum!

"What?!"

Xue Ying’s pupils shrank. His face was filled with shock, and his eyes revealed a look of utter disbelief.

’How could he possess such a tyrannical Physique? I’m a Demon Fiend! My physical strength should be countless times greater than a Human Race cultivator of the same rank.’

And yet, he had just suffered a direct loss at the other’s hands. The instant their fists collided, he felt an immense, overwhelming force travel up his arm. The bones in his body vibrated violently, and his entire figure was sent flying backward like a kite with a snapped string, tearing through the air.

The next moment, Ye Xuantian’s figure vanished from his spot at an incredible speed.

"WHOOSH!!"

The Nether Tiger’s Demon Pattern Battle Halberd descended from the sky, chopping straight down at Ye Xuantian’s body and slicing his afterimage in two. The residual, terrifying Demonic Qi even tore an endless, pitch-black abyss into space, from which a fearsome dark current overflowed!

’Did I get him?!’

Seeing Ye Xuantian’s body cleaved in two, a flash of joy appeared in the Nether Tiger’s vicious eyes, only to quickly vanish and be replaced by solemnity.

’An afterimage? So fast!!’

’His speed and power are beyond my imagination. After blasting Xue Ying away, he was still able to dodge my attack. How can a native of the Celestial Essence Realm be such a prodigy?’

But before it could finish its thought, ripples like a disturbed water mirror spread across the void behind the Nether Tiger, and a figure flashed into existence.

A glint of sword light flashed in Ye Xuantian’s eyes. He raised his hand, using his palm as a sword to slice through the void. He instantly unleashed an ultimate Sword Intent containing the aura of a ’Domain’. Like a meteor from beyond the heavens, it carried an extremely potent force, tore through layers of space, and instantly slashed down upon the Nether Tiger’s body!!

’Damn it!’ The Nether Tiger’s eyes widened abruptly as a sense of crisis welled up in its heart. From behind, an ultimate Sword Intent containing the Divine Power of a ’Dao Domain’ was slashing toward it with the power to annihilate everything.

It lifted its feet, just about to flee.

"SCHLICK!!"

But in the next instant, the ultimate Sword Intent imbued with the Divine Power of a ’Dao Domain’ struck its body. It cleaved the Nether Tiger in two with unstoppable force before tearing through the sky and plunging into the abyssal land below. In that moment, a thousand-mile-long fissure of Sword Qi appeared on the unfathomably deep cliffs of the abyss, and the residual Sword Intent annihilated everything in its path!

"SPLATTER!!"

In the void above, the Nether Tiger’s powerful body was instantly sliced into two mirror-smooth halves. Dark red blood splattered across the sky. Each drop contained terrifying power, falling like a shower of scarlet meteors and blasting crater after crater into the shattered abyssal land below.

"You... deserve to die!"

The Nether Tiger, sliced in two by the Heaven-Reaching Sword Intent, was still not completely dead. Its half-severed head let out a hoarse, deep voice laced with extreme hatred.

’I was actually cut in two by a member of the Human Race!!’

’The humiliation!! Once my Demonic Power restores my body, I will repay this a hundredfold!’ the Nether Tiger roared frantically in its heart.

But soon, a savage and terrified expression appeared on its fragmented face. It stammered, "Dao... Dao Domain Power!"

"You’ve actually comprehended Dao Domain Power!!"

The two halves of its severed body were now unable to heal. Despite the powerful Power of Recovery possessed by Demon Fiends, its body could not fuse back together. Instead, under the influence of a mysterious power, it was continuously disintegrating, being annihilated!!

The ’Undying Body’ of a Demon Fiend, formed by its formidable Vitality Power, was not invincible. It could be countered by the Divine Power of a ’Domain’—a power that only titans of the Unity Realm could comprehend. This power could completely annihilate the Undying Power of a Demon Fiend.

And the ultimate Sword Intent that Ye Xuantian had just unleashed using his palm as a sword was imbued with Dao Domain Power. Under that one strike, the Nether Tiger’s death was certain!

Meanwhile, Xue Ying, who had clashed fists with Ye Xuantian, had been sent flying like a kite with a snapped string. After tearing through the air, he finally managed to steady himself in the void. The meridians in his arm, covered in regal Purple Nether scales, were shattered. But after only a moment, a thick, dark-red smoke rose from the wound, and his injury healed instantly!

But Xue Ying’s face was grim.
