Xiao Han used everything he had to kill a dying Demon Emperor.
At the same time, the tattoo on his left arm absorbed the demon's body and was greatly nourished. Demon veins awakened one after another.
"A Demon Emperor is indeed a Demon Emperor. Even though he is dying, his bloodline is extremely noble. Demon soldiers and Demon Generals can't compare to him …" Xiao Han thought as he returned to the city.
"Including the eight demon veins I awakened before, I now have a total of one hundred demon veins!
This is unbelievable!
This is just a dying Demon Emperor that has been sealed for ten years. If it was a Demon Emperor at its peak, it would have awakened more than a thousand demon veins after being absorbed by the tattoo on the Demon Emperor's palm!
However, a Demon Emperor at its peak is not someone I can kill.
At least with my current combat power, I can only run away if I encounter a Demon Emperor at its peak. "
Xiao Han looked inside himself.
On the Demon Emperor's palm, there were one hundred demon veins filled with demonic energy. They emitted a pure luster, like a hundred mines and spirit rivers filled with Spirit Qi.
They contained the power to shatter mountains.
There was a Demon Emperor Crystal in each of the two grooves.
It was as bright as the stars.
The demon talisman flashed.
The Demon Emperor Crystal that had been smashed into powder had already been repaired.
"Sky Demon God Investiture."
This was a Natural Demon Art that Xiao Han had just learned.
The North Xuan Monster Emperor's Illusionary Movement was a ghostly movement art that was similar to teleportation. The Natal Monster Investiture Art that killed the Monster Emperor just now, the Sky Monster God Investiture, was to use the Monster Talisman to seal the opponent.
Not only could it seal the opponent's attack, but it could also seal the opponent's body.
If this Demon Art was used to its peak, it could seal the strongest opponent for thousands of years.
Xiao Han suddenly remembered that Nangong Ye's Heaven Burning Grand True Qi was temporarily sealed by the dying Demon Emperor, which allowed him to take advantage of the opportunity to injure Nangong Ye.
Of course.
Even if the one hundred demon veins on Xiao Han's left arm were filled with demonic energy and he channeled all of it into the Demon Emperor Crystal, he still could not use the Sky Demon God Investiture to its peak.
He was still far from it.
He needed to awaken more demon veins.
"I have already mastered two Demon Emperor Secret Techniques. Each has its own merits. Once the Demon Emperor Palm strikes out, it will have the strength of ten thousand cauldrons. It can be said that my combat strength has increased tremendously …" Xiao Han was very satisfied with today's harvest.
Back in the city.
"Hmm?"
At this time, Xiao Han saw a group of aggressive martial artists.
They surrounded the princess' escort team. The one leading them was a malevolent and evil bald man with a single eye. His entire body was surging with true energy, and his light was like a sea.
There was a huge python floating above his head, ready to devour anyone that it saw.
Thirty-seven Pentagram True Acupoints flashed and vanished within the body of the one-eyed bald man.
He was an expert at the fourth level of true qi.
He had even opened two more acupoints than Nangong Ye.
However, his aura was nowhere near Nangong Ye's.
He shouldn't be a Fiend Hero.
A normal true qi realm martial artist.
Behind the one-eyed bald man, there were more than ten Zhenqi realm experts of varying cultivation levels.
There were Level One, Level Two, and Level Three True Qi cultivators.
These people.
Xiao Han's impression was that they were a group of rogue cultivators.
A mob.
Hu Chenghe and several guards guarded Princess Mo Hen's chariot tenaciously, their expressions extremely tense.
The atmosphere was extremely tense.
Both sides seemed to be ready to go to war.
"Boom!"
A majestic true fire soared into the sky.
Nangong Ye was enveloped within it. His face was as white as paper, and there were bloodstains at the corner of his mouth. He looked extremely miserable and angry.
However, the 35 acupoints in his body were boiling and emitting a red glow.
It seemed like his battle strength was not affected.
However, a thick medicinal fragrance was emitting from his body.
"Oh … this Nangong Ye was hit by the Demon Emperor and is obviously injured. However, he seems to have consumed a type of divine medicine that forcefully suppressed his injuries. He will not lose his battle strength and be at the mercy of others." Xiao Han knew in his heart.
He stood by the side without making a sound.
"General Nangong Ye." The one-eyed man spoke in a hoarse and cryptic voice, "Congratulations General Nangong Ye, you have defeated the Great Demon that was sealed here.
Hehehe, but General Nangong Ye, you seem to be injured as well. "
"Hmm, you bunch of bastards, how dare you scheme against me. Driving the wolf to devour the tiger, killing with a borrowed knife. This is a good move.
It's just a despicable method. In the face of absolute strength, it can only be crushed. "
Nangong Ye's eyes were filled with disdain. Streaks of fiery light surrounded him, forming into the image of the ancestors worshipping the Fire God. It was extremely solemn and ferocious, sweeping across the moon and heaven.
The group of True Qi Realm experts behind the one-eyed man, seeing that Nangong Ye's battle strength was not affected, couldn't help but look at each other in shock. A few of them even wanted to take the opportunity to slip away and kept throwing glances at the one-eyed man.
The one-eyed man's eyes twitched a few times, as if he was making a decision. After a few breaths, he smiled and said.
"General Nangong Ye, I can see that your injuries are not light. You only consumed a treasure medicine that temporarily suppresses your injuries.
According to what I know, this kind of medicine that suppresses injuries seems to be able to maintain your battle strength, but the side effects are extremely severe … Hehehe, General Nangong Ye, you must be unable to display your peak battle strength right now, right?
To put it bluntly, you are strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
Why don't we make a deal?
Give me half of the Princess's dowry, and I will leave immediately. I will not waste time. "
"Hahahaha!
A bunch of bastards dares to negotiate with me!
What a joke!
All of you shall die! "
Nangong Ye made a grabbing motion with his right hand. Fiery light surged like a great river, instantly condensing into a Burning Heaven Cauldron the size of a few acres. It shrouded the sky and directly charged towards the one-eyed man!
"Hu!
Hu!
Hu!
Hu! "
It was as if there were volcanoes erupting within the cauldron, and it was as if there were ten thousand horses galloping. Its momentum was vast and mighty, emitting an extremely strong suction force. In an instant, dozens of Physical Body Realm experts behind the one-eyed man were sucked into the cauldron. They screamed in pain and were turned into ashes within a breath's time.
"Nangong Ye!
Do you think I am afraid of you?! "
The one-eyed man was enraged. The True Qi python above his head was like a crazed devil. It opened its bloody mouth and shot out explosively, directly entangling the Burning Heaven Cauldron.
"Clang!
Clang!
Clang! "
The True Qi python wanted to squeeze the cauldron until it exploded. Its body grinded against the cauldron, producing the sound of metal being cut. The cauldron's light was dense, roasting the True Qi python until it sizzled and smoke rose.
"Brothers!
Go! "
The one-eyed man was emboldened. He grabbed with his right hand, and a misty green True Qi palm the size of an acre grabbed directly at Nangong Ye!
At the same time, the True Qi Realm experts behind the one-eyed man all unleashed their ultimate moves.
They all attacked Nangong Ye together.
In an instant, Sword Qi rumbled, Saber Shadows overlapped, and sunlight bloomed. Ultimate moves were everywhere.
Nangong Ye's True Qi Realm deputy generals also rushed over to help, each using their ultimate moves.
"Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang! "
Light exploded in the sky, treasured flames rolled, and it was hard to tell who would win.
A few breaths later.
Both sides stopped fighting.
Nangong Ye's face was extremely ugly, as if he was dead. The deputy generals were also sweating, having exhausted their True Qi.
It was the smell of exhaustion and exhaustion.
On the other hand, the bald one-eyed man's side was also retreating. He did not gain the upper hand. The one-eyed man spat out blood, his face as pale as paper. He had been seriously injured.
"As expected of the Fiend Hero, he is almost at his limit.
Even with the support of treasured medicine, his combat power is still so terrifying … "The one-eyed man wanted to retreat, but he did not want to give up.
It was very contradictory.
At this time, Nangong Ye shouted at Hu Chenghe and the princess's guards.
"Why don't you attack?
A bunch of trash! "
Suddenly, Nangong Ye's eyes flashed with ferocity as he sneered at the one-eyed man.
"Don't you want the princess's dowry?
I'll give you a chance. Make your move.
Attack and kill the princess's guards, and I will consider giving you some True Qi Spiritual Stones and pills. What do you think? "
Nangong Ye had long wanted to eliminate the few guards of the True Energy Realm by the princess' side. If his strength had not been damaged, it would have been a piece of cake. But now, he had been struck by the Demon Emperor and was heavily injured. He had to rely on the elixirs to hold on, and now he had to fight with the one-eyed man. His injuries had worsened, and he had no choice but to borrow the one-eyed man's strength to eliminate the few obstructing personal guards by the princess' side.
Moreover, he could use this opportunity to recover some of his combat power and slaughter the bandits in one go.
"Hmm?"
The one-eyed man spat out another mouthful of blood. He choked and roared, "Nangong Ye, do you think I don't dare?"
"Heh heh …" Nangong Ye folded his arms, not saying a word as he stood by the side, watching the fire burn.
"What?!" Hu Chenghe and the others were shocked.
"Nangong Ye, you are despicable!" Hu Chenghe pointed at him angrily.
"First Master, that Nangong Ye seems to be on bad terms with these guards. He wants to use us to kill them …" The scholar came over and whispered.
"Hmm … only that old man is a little tricky. He is at the peak of True Qi Realm and has opened 30 meridians. I will deal with him personally. You guys deal with the others. Finish them quickly and kill them. Let's see what Nangong Ye has to say!" The one-eyed man was ruthless.
In an instant, dozens of True Qi Realm bandits locked their qi onto Hu Chenghe and the other True Qi Realm guards.
"Everyone, fight!"
Hu Chenghe's body glowed as a river of True Qi rushed out of his body and flowed above his head.
There were only four True Qi Realm guards beside Hu Chenghe. Their cultivation levels were not high; they were only at Level One and Level Two.
Moreover, although this group of mountain bandits were not demons, they could be considered to be brave and good at fighting. They were people who licked blood from the tip of their blades. They had killed many people, and there was a baleful aura in their True Qi that was overbearing. In terms of numbers and momentum, they firmly suppressed Hu Chenghe and the others.
"Protect the Princess with our lives!" Hu Chenghe's old face was solemn.
He did not think that the few people on his side were enough to deal with dozens of bandits.
He was determined to protect the Princess even if he had to risk his life.
"This Nangong Ye is really despicable … However, it seems like he is already an arrow at the end of its flight. Sooner or later, he will die!" Xiao Han sighed and said loudly.
"Senior Hu, let this junior handle them!"
As he spoke, Xiao Han walked towards the group of bandits.
"Hmm?"
The group of bandits turned to look, only to see a strange person wrapped in a black cloak, walking over with a murderous aura.
"First Master, this is?" The scholar exclaimed.
The bald one-eyed man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth as a fierce look appeared in his single eye.
"It's just Level One True Qi.
Da Ximao, make your move and tear this guy apart! "
The white-clothed man, Da Ximao, nodded and dismounted from his horse. He walked towards Xiao Han step by step.
"Hmm!
Bandits, kill this man, and I'll give you some supreme-grade vital energy spirit stones, "Nangong Ye suddenly said.
Xiao Han and the white-clothed man, Da Ximao, stopped at the same time and stood ten meters apart.
