723 Chapter 723: Demon"s Anger
Ye Xiao and the demon both dashed at each other at once. Relying purely on physical strength, both of them punched out.
“BOOM!”
Their punch collided against each other and with a loud explosive sound, a shocking occurrence took place. An explosive shockwave exploded in every direction, stirring the magma inside the basin and hitting the rocky wall of the mountain, causing small pieces of rocks to fall down.
As for Ye Xiao and the demon, none of them retreated a single step. They were still in the same position. Their punches were still pushing each other, trying to obtain the win.
The demon frowned. He didn’t expect not to gain an advantage even though the difference between their auras was obvious.
The demon was only surprised a little. The next moment, his expression returned to normal. In this attack, he only used 50% of his strength. Although he thought it is enough to take care of Ye Xiao, not being able to buzz off Ye Xiao was not out of ordinary. If he was really able to kill Ye Xiao in one punch, then Ye Xiao would have let down the name of reincarnators.
“You are powerful!” The demon said, acknowledging Ye Xiao’s strength.
Ye Xiao still had the same smile on his face. He said, “I know.”
“Come again!” x2.pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴ(0)ᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ
Both of them shouted together and once again launched their attacks.
Ye Xiao’s punch started burning as a fiery red flame enveloped his fist. On the other hand, the demon’s fist was enveloped by the black demonic aura that was exuding a terrible infernal rhythm, causing the air around to fluctuate.
“Burning World Fist!”
“Infernal Demon Fist!”
“Bang!”
Their punch collided once again, however, unlike the previous time, this time shockingly insurmountable energy erupted after the collision that swept over the entire basin.
pAɴᴅᴀ ɴ[0)ᴠᴇʟ Fearing something will happen to the unconscious people on the platform, Ye Xiao shifted his attention and tried to divide his strength and create a barrier around them, however, before he could do that, he once again sensed the same familiar aura and saw a light green barrier appearing, separating a small part of the platform from the other.
What happened after that was something Ye Xiao was unable to see. But this time, he knew why did he find this aura familiar or to whom this aura belong. pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ
“Queen!”
Ye Xiao muttered in low voice, and at the same time, he heaved a sigh of relief. With Queen at the scene, he knew nothing will happen to anyone. Since that’s the case, he could fully concentrate on fighting the demon and leaving unconscious people in Queen’s care.
As expected, when the violent energy wave disappeared, Ye Xiao saw everyone safe inside the light green barrier.
Well, this time, both of them still didn’t retreat. Their fists were still sticking against each other, trying to gain the advantage. Even their fiery energy and infernal energy were against each other as a soft churning sound was appearing.
Both of them retreated once again. Their expressions turned serious for the first time. They completely understood that the opponent is not someone easy to deal with, if they want to win and kill the opponent, they have to display their true strength and give their 100%. Otherwise, winning the fight was out of reality.
“What is your name?”
For the first time, the demon asked for Ye Xiao’s name.
“Ye Xiao!” Ye Xiao replied indifferently and asked in return, “Yours?” ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕ(ꪫ)ꪣꫀ ꪶ
“Supreme Demon King!” The demon raised his head with pride and said, “Although this is not my real name, it’ll be the one people will call me in the future. You should just remember the demon who killed you is none other than the Supreme Demon King himself. Your name will be written in the annals of history. People will say, the Supreme Demon King started walking the path of supreme after killing a person called Ye Xiao who was only eight years old at that time and was already a Peak Martial Emperor Realm martial artist, a monstrous genius that has never appeared in the history of Great Star Continent before. If that day, he was not killed by the Supreme Demon King, he would have been a remarkable figure currently!”
The Supreme Demon King laughed and said. While he was telling Ye Xiao what the people of the future would say about the rise of the Supreme Demon King and his fall, he was also lost in the imagination, as if trying to imagine how great that scene would be where people will take his name in reverence and he’ll rule over the Great Star Continent prominently.
“Why are you being so delusional? Don’t forget, the battle has just started!” Ye Xiao shattered the realm of the demon’s imagination as his indifferent voice rang out.
“I’ll kill you!” The demon shouted and the black energy started exuding from his hallmarks, causing his entire being to turn too sinister. Then without giving Ye Xiao any chance to prepare, he attacked.
How can Ye Xiao be outdone? He took out the Black Star Blade, stroked it lightly, and then slashed out.
‘Black Star Slash!’
This was the name of martial arts skill that came along with the Black Star Sword. When Ye Xiao refined this sword, a huge amount of information flooded his mind. This information was about the Black Star Slash.
As Ye Xiao slashed, the s.p.a.ce around the demon seemed to have been cut into pieces and shattered, the demon found himself floating in the endless s.p.a.ce. There was nothing around him but darkness. As far as he could see, only darkness could be seen.
Suddenly, he felt his was burning. He looked below and was shocked to see black sword marks appearing on his shoulder and hands.
It was not the end, he felt something was happening to his surroundings as well. Looking around, he was shocked to see many arc lights appearing and cutting open a small s.p.a.ce. This situation continued until the s.p.a.ce around him had thousands of cuts.
The s.p.a.ce around him suddenly started vibrating heavily.
“Something is wrong. Something is extremely wrong!” The demon muttered as a worried expression appeared on his face.
First of all, he was still standing on the platform a moment ago, how is this possible for him to appear in a dark s.p.a.ce all of sudden. He was clearly on the platform and was attacking Ye Xiao. His attack didn’t even reach Ye Xiao when he came here.
Wait… Ye Xiao…. Yes, Ye Xiao!
The demon suddenly realized something. It was Ye Xiao who took out a black blade and slashed at him. Only at that moment did he suddenly find himself floating in this dark s.p.a.ce.
Then what is the meaning of countless long cuts in the s.p.a.ce?
Before the demon could understand or think further, the s.p.a.ce around him shattered like a mirror, and he groaned out in pain. He felt like his body had just been cut thousands of times without him knowing, and the pain sudden eruption of pain caused him to stumble on the ground.
He suddenly found himself standing on the platform once again. There were many blade wounds on his body and blood was oozing out from the wounds.
“So, everything else before other than the cuts in s.p.a.ce was an illusion. How terrifying?” The demon was shocked in his heart. He couldn’t explain how he was feeling right now. He was clearly stronger in cultivation after using his Hallmarks. Ye Xiao was only a Peak Martial Emperor but he has already become a Peak Martial Saint because of the hallmarks on his body.
However, even so, he was unable to do any harm to Ye Xiao. Instead, he was injured badly as many blade wounds appeared on his body.
He wasn’t able to accept this face for a moment.
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I’ll kill you!”
The demon shouted in anger and a terrifying devilish aura erupted out from his body. This aura alone could give a fright to any Martial Saint. The devilish aura on the demon’s body was too strong.
Ye Xiao understood that the demon was going to use his full strength now. He also became serious. It was time for the final showdown.
The demon’s aura kept becoming stronger and stronger with each pa.s.sing second. Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared behind the demon. This dark shadow was like an asura, it had eight hands and each hand was holding a different weapon. Its facial features couldn’t be seen.
However, just the appearance of this demon caused the s.p.a.ce inside the basin to become unstable as it started distorting the next moment. The distortion in the s.p.a.ce was not too strong, but it was enough to slightly injure even Ye Xiao if he were not to struggle or protect himself.
“Is that what the Sky Demon looks like?” Ye Xiao muttered. He knew this kind of thing can only happen because of a person’s bloodline. The demon has the bloodline of the Sky Demon and this asura’s shadow was manifested behind the demon. What can it be if not for the Sky Demon?
