In the void of a certain country, Gu Yu was holding the dying Xu Ling'er in his arms. No matter how hard he tried, he could not extinguish the demonic flames attached to Xu Ling'er's body.
“Gu… Gu Yu.” Xu Ling’er’s eyes were somewhat clear at this moment. She was not the Ice Phoenix Emperor at this moment, but Xu Ling’er.
Because the Ice Phoenix Emperor encountered the Demon Phoenix, the situation was urgent, and she did not have time to completely possess Xu Ling'er. Moreover, she was now severely injured and on the verge of death, which made her unable to suppress the only remaining figure in Xu Ling'er's mind.
"Ling'er, I'm here. You have to hold on. I'll find a way to save you." Gu Yu said to Xu Ling'er, who was extremely weak and on the verge of death. But no matter how he tried to save her, he couldn't get rid of the demonic flames. At this moment, even his body was covered with demonic flames. However, relying on the power of gods and demons, he was able to resist them. But getting rid of them was a pipe dream.
"Brother Gu Yu, I'm already very content to see you one more time." Xu Ling'er looked at Gu Yu. She was extremely cold to everyone, but she was different to Gu Yu. She gently raised her hand and touched Gu Yu's face. His fair arm was now covered with black wounds from being burned by demonic flames.
"Hold on, I'll save you." Gu Yu's eyes reddened.
“Brother Gu Yu, it’s no use. The Ice Phoenix Emperor has already taken over my body. I can no longer suppress her. Moreover, I’ve been afflicted by demonic flames. These are not ordinary phoenix flames, but Heavenly Demon Phoenix Flames. Because my flames are cold, while these flames are blazing hot, they counteract each other. I’m already… cough cough…” Xu Ling’er suddenly coughed violently.
"Ling'er, hold on, I have a way to save you." At this moment, Gu Yu suddenly thought of something: the Ancestor of Humanity. As long as he found the Ancestor of Humanity, what would a mere Heavenly Demon Phoenix Flame be?
Moreover, he roughly knew where the Ancestor of Humanity was, and there was a high probability that he was inside the Dragon Palace Tower. Thinking of this, he suddenly picked up Xu Ling'er and moved the God-Slaying Array Disc in his hand again, shifting the ten directions.
At this moment, inside the turtle shell, Mo Shougui's expression suddenly changed. "Is it Kunlun Yuanmen? What happened?" he thought to himself. Huangfu Kui and Li Shanpo's expressions also changed at this moment.
If it weren't for the unresolved issues here, they probably would have already set off immediately.
Before the Dark Pope could answer, Mo Shougui conjured two crescent-shaped blades in his hands and instantly charged towards Orochi and Solo.
boom…………
In just one exchange, Orochi and Solo were sent flying backward, which surprised everyone else, even causing the Dark Pope to frown.
Mo Shougui is much stronger now than when he dealt with the knights of the Holy See. All the talk about being severely exhausted is a lie. And just how strong is this guy? Everyone is eager to know.
"Mo Shougui, do you really intend to wipe us out today?" Emperor Orochi asked, looking at the exceptionally powerful Mo Shougui.
"The moment you stepped into Chinese territory, it was already destined that you would die today." Mo Shougui's voice turned cold. Solo was like a chicken rib in his hands, powerless to resist. In the blink of an eye, a knife slashed through his chest, and he was severely injured, falling to the side, spitting blood.
Mo Shougui suddenly appeared beside Orochi, his two crescent-shaped swords flashing like lightning, one aimed at Orochi's neck and the other at his waist.
"Giant Primordial Spirit!" At this moment, Emperor Orochi suddenly shouted, and a dazzling light suddenly emanated from behind him, a scene that resembled Superman's transformation.
Mo Shougui immediately took a few steps back, frowning as he looked at Ultraman behind Orochi.
Giants also have another name, Giants of Light, which usually appear in the cartoons that people like to watch. Now that they have actually appeared, and it is even the primordial spirit of Emperor Yamata no Orochi, Mo Shougui showed a strange expression.
"Mo Shougui, let me tell you, my Sakura Kingdom has long since made contact with the God of Light in the Gate of Light, and I am the messenger of the God of Light. If you kill me, the God of Light will surely raze your China to the ground," Emperor Orochi threatened Mo Shougui.
"You mean this thing?" Mo Shougui looked at the giant primordial spirit behind Orochi, his eyes revealing disdain. "Let's wait until it can descend before we talk about it."
"Full Moon Storm." The two crescent moon blades in Mo Shougui's hands spun instantly, and terrifying energy emanated from the spinning blades. In an instant, the two crescent moon blades seemed to transform into two moons, and a terrifying storm suddenly appeared on them, causing the space to tremble and vibrate.
Whoosh whoosh… sizzle sizzle…
Two round moon storms immediately spread towards Emperor Orochi. When Emperor Orochi saw the two round moon storms, his expression changed. The primordial spirit of the giant of light behind him immediately struck a pose. Then, with a movement of its arm, it changed its posture, and two beams of light shot towards the two round moon storms.
boom……………
In an instant, bursts of energy spread out, but the light of the giant of light could not stop the two round moon storms. In a flash, the two round moon storms pierced through the body of the Orochi Emperor and the primordial spirit of the giant of light.
Snap... Boom... Plop...
The Giant of Light's primordial spirit shattered and exploded instantly, and the Orochi Emperor spat out a mouthful of blood. His life force vanished instantly, and his eyes became extremely dim.
"The race of giants of light will not let China go." After saying this, the Orochi Emperor's body instantly turned into minced meat.
Looking at the dead Orochi Emperor, Solo's face turned extremely ugly. Before coming here, they were filled with countless fantasies about how to destroy China. But now, things were completely different. First, they were sown apart by Mo Shougui, and then they even turned against China, leading to the disastrous defeat of the Holy See. After that, they were defeated one by one. This was unbelievable. They were originally confident of victory, but now he doubted whether they were really confident. Just how strong Mo Shougui was was completely unknown.
Besides, who would have thought that a coward who had always only known how to compromise would become so powerful?
“Mo Shougui, you can’t kill me. I have the Holy Mountain behind me. Although the Twelve Star Emperors are all dead, the true god of my Holy Mountain is still alive. Even if you are extremely powerful, you are no match for the true god.” Solo threatened, “Mo Shougui, let’s make a deal. If you let me go, I will persuade the true god of the Holy Mountain not to deal with your China.”
"Heh..." Mo Shougui sneered upon hearing Solo's words, "Aren't you thinking too much of yourself as a dog?"
"What do you mean?" Solo's expression changed as he asked.
"Hmph!" Mo Shougui looked at Solo with disdain. "You want to persuade Xi Ya? In Xi Ya's eyes, you're not even as good as a dog. Why would she listen to your advice? You think too highly of yourself."
After Mo Shougui finished speaking, he moved and appeared next to Solo. The two crescent blades in his hands transformed into a crescent storm once again, piercing through Solo's body and turning him into dust.
"Hmph!" After doing all this, Mo Shougui looked at the others. Those who were stared at by Mo Shougui felt their hair stand on end. Mo Shougui was really too scary. And would he come after them?
After all, Mo Shougui had just killed Orochi and Soro, who had also compromised, and all of them combined probably wouldn't be a match for Mo Shougui.
"Today, I will spare you, but please remember this: if there is a next time, I, Mo Shougui, will march on your country." Mo Shougui's icy voice rang out, and an invisible killing intent sent chills down everyone's spines.
"We understand, there will never be a next time," everyone immediately assured them.
What a joke! The current Mo Shougui is displaying his divine power, a far cry from his past compromises and cowardice. Who would dare to provoke China? Perhaps only that true god on the holy mountain.
"Get lost!" Mo Shougui said, waving his hand, and the turtle shell returned to his grasp.
The barrier that had been blocking the group vanished instantly. The group exchanged glances and then quickly departed.
In the blink of an eye, only the Dark Pope, Mo Shougui, Huangfu Kui, and Li Shanpo remained.
"Does China's missionary rights still stand?" the Dark Pope asked with a grim face.
"Your Dark Church can preach in the southeast, north, south, east China, and western regions," Mo Shougui said. "Other areas will not be open for now."
"Alright." The Dark Pope nodded. Although Mo Shougui hadn't initially agreed to let him preach only in the southeast, north, south, and western regions of China, if they were to discuss the rights now, he might even lose the preaching rights in the eastern and western regions of China.
After all, Mo Shougui's strength is obvious to all, so it's better to stop while we're ahead. Besides, the most troublesome one is that guy Polu.
"Then I'll take my leave." After saying that, Sai Dong moved and suddenly disappeared.
"Mo Shougui, did you really give him the right to preach? Why didn't you keep them all?" Huangfu Kui asked, puzzled, after everyone had left.
“Keeping him around is naturally useful. Letting Sai Dong go is because I need him, I need him to invade. In recent years, Lamaism has retreated to the Western Regions, and Taoism is in East China. They've been too peaceful, and have even started internal strife, harboring inappropriate thoughts. It's better to let the Dark Church spread its teachings, giving them a powerful enemy so they won't be idle. As for Polu, he's naturally there to restrain Sai Dong. If the West only has the Dark Church, then they will invade China without restraint, even pointing their spearhead at China,” Mo Shougui explained.
“But it would be better to just give him the right to preach in the Western Regions and East China!” Li Shanpo said. Since the purpose was to restrain Taoism and Lamaism, why bring the Southeast and North-South regions to Saidong? This puzzled him.
“Those two places are about to open the source gate, and most of the people have evacuated. Giving them to him won’t hurt. Maybe he can even help us guard them for the sake of spreading the faith!” Mo Shougui said. “As for the Great Master, that guy is the same kind of person as me. He’s too well hidden. If we really have to make a move, I’m not confident. Besides, the Great Master’s lineage also needs him to keep them in check.”
"The Great Master has been hiding his strength?" Huangfu Kui and Li Shanpo exclaimed in shock upon hearing Mo Shougui's words.
“If he were really that simple, how could he have suppressed the lineage of Shiva? The power of Shiva is not simple! Moreover, I suspect that the Shiva Source Gate and the Shion Source Gate have been opened long ago. It is very likely that the two Source Gates, like the Angel Source Gate, have merged, which is why they have not attacked India, or something else.” Mo Shougui said.
"Mutual restraint, brilliant!" Huangfu Kui said with admiration after hearing Mo Shougui's explanation.
“Sometimes you can’t just fight. You can fight one or ten, but can you fight a hundred? There are no common allies, only common interests and enemies. To force them to unite, you have to seize the contradictions between them and make them collapse,” Mo Shougui said. “This is also my way of weighing things. You felt it just now, didn’t you? Something came out of Kunlun Yuanmen. We have to hurry up and see what happened.”
"Hmm!" Huangfu Kui and Li Shanpo nodded. These two men, who used to scoff at Mo Shougui, are now completely convinced. This is a very big change.
At this moment, Gu Yu had returned to the Holy Capital City. He was carrying Xu Ling'er and was about to head towards the Dragon Division.
But the next second, a sudden, overwhelming demonic flame appeared and swept towards him, causing his expression to change drastically.
The Demon Phoenix actually found them. It was quite a coincidence. After Gu Yu and Xu Ling'er escaped, the Demon Phoenix had been wandering around the Holy Capital, searching for Gu Yu and Xu Ling'er. Unexpectedly, he actually stumbled upon them by sheer luck.
"Gu Yu, I will never forget the grudge of that blow from that day." The Fire Phoenix God King appeared in front of Gu Yu in an instant, and terrifying demonic flames immediately sealed off Gu Yu's surroundings.
"Kong Yan." Gu Yu said through gritted teeth as he looked at the Fire Phoenix God King. He hadn't expected that this guy would find him.
"Hehe..." Seeing Gu Yu's flustered expression, the Fire Phoenix God King laughed, "It's like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it come to you effortlessly. You actually came to me on your own, hahaha..."
As the Fire Phoenix God King spoke, countless demonic flames suddenly contracted and swept towards Gu Yu.
"Heaven and earth grieve together." Gu Yu gritted his teeth, and a wave of sorrow washed over him, as if the heavens and earth themselves changed color in mourning. His figure appeared and disappeared in the flowing light, like a lonely ghost.
His eyes were deep, like the surface of a lake in winter, reflecting endless sorrow and desolation.
The surrounding air instantly became turbulent, as if infected by Gu Yu's emotions.
With a sudden thrust of his wooden sword, the Fire Phoenix God King felt his very soul tremble. His expression changed drastically. What was happening? He was a demigod, while Gu Yu was merely a quasi-emperor, yet the power he released made him sense a hint of danger.
The shrinking demonic flames were instantly swept away by the sorrowful aura emanating from Gu Yu. The sorrowful aura released by Gu Yu, combined with the divine and demonic power he had awakened four times, had now reached the level of a demigod.
Moreover, unlike the sword-nurturing technique, the power of gods and demons will not be weakened by the imperial aura of the emperor in the imperial realm.
"Die!" Gu Yu roared, and instantly all the sorrow swept towards the Fire Phoenix God King.
This strike was like the collapse of heaven and earth; its terrifying power instantly enveloped the Fire Phoenix God King.
The Fire Phoenix God King felt an unprecedented despair, a fear that came from the depths of his soul, as if everything in the world had become so pale and powerless.
"How is this possible? What kind of monster are you? How could you have such abilities?" The Fire Phoenix God King's expression changed repeatedly, but he reacted very quickly.
"Heavenly Demon Phoenix Flame." The Fire Phoenix God King's body moved, transforming into a phoenix skeleton burning with demonic flames. The demonic flames released from his body immediately dispelled most of the sorrow.
With a flap of his wings, he instantly swept towards the blade that Gu Yu was slashing at.
boom……………
A deafening roar resounded, and in an instant, a huge spatial rift appeared.
Gu Yu's body was sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Instantly, scorching demonic flames erupted from his and Xu Ling'er's bodies, causing Xu Ling'er in his arms to tremble in pain.
"Cough cough..." Gu Yu coughed violently at this moment. Although his Heaven and Earth Sorrow was powerful and could not have one-third of its attack power negated by the Source Cone of the Emperor Realm, the gap between him and the Fire Phoenix God King was too great.
If he were at the peak of the Emperor Realm, perhaps he could use the power of gods and demons to unleash the Heaven and Earth Sorrow, which would severely injure his opponent. However, the Fire Phoenix God King is a demigod, a powerful figure who has already stepped into the God Realm with one foot in the door.
"You truly surprise me, God King. Your growth is astonishing. If you continue to grow, perhaps I, God King, will not be your match in the future. Therefore, you must die," the Fire Phoenix God King said, looking at Gu Yu.
Just now, being enveloped by the sorrow of heaven and earth was such a terrifying feeling that he felt threatened by death. This feeling was even more terrifying than when he encountered the Demon Dragon Emperor. Therefore, he absolutely could not let Gu Yu stay.
"Phoenix Blaze." The Fire Phoenix God King's figure instantly transformed into a black shadow, and endless pitch-black demonic flames erupted from his body. These demonic flames instantly condensed into countless pitch-black fire phoenixes, sweeping towards Gu Yu and Xu Ling'er.
Faced with the Phoenix Blaze, Gu Yu was powerless to resist. He held Xu Ling'er in his arms, feeling unwilling but helpless.
At this critical moment, a figure suddenly appeared. With her appearance, a layer of white energy covered the surroundings. Under this white energy, the Fire Phoenix God King's demonic flames and everything else lost their color.
With a wave of her hand, the countless fiery phoenixes were instantly extinguished. She was wearing a white armor. The next second, she waved her hand again, and a white energy instantly covered Gu Yu and Xu Ling'er's bodies, extinguishing the demonic flames attached to them.
At this moment, the Fire Phoenix God King looked at the space around him that had suddenly turned white, and his expression changed drastically.
"True God, are you the true God?" He looked at the woman with a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Since you have achieved Nirvana, you should cherish it and cultivate diligently, but instead you are acting recklessly here. You deserve to die." The woman's cold voice rang out, and the next second, the Fire Phoenix God King's massive body was twisted and deformed by a force, and his body trembled and convulsed.
