"Demon Lord..."
Li Ming's expression remained calm, but the killing intent in his eyes was not concealed.
After chasing for nearly half a day, they had long since left the Blood Demon Mountain area to the farthest point.
Located at the border of Xuezhou and Shuzhou, Wuyun River.
Li Ming was standing on the Black Cloud River at this moment, single-handedly stopping Zhou Lisheng, the second most powerful person in the world.
If it were a year ago, Li Ming himself would not have believed that he would rise to the top of a country so quickly, but that is the reality.
He is now virtually invincible under the God of War!
Even the dignified "number one" of the Great Xuan Demon Sect had to admit that he seemed to be genuinely frightened by a young upstart.
“Li Ming…”
Zhou Lisheng's face immediately darkened:
"You went to great lengths to kill Xue Chen, and now you're chasing after me? You're seriously underestimating me!"
Although he was shocked that Li Ming could even kill Xue Chen, he realized that Li Ming's actions clearly showed that he didn't take him seriously at all.
Did they think he was easy to bully, and couldn't wait to kill him?
Li Ming slightly raised his head, his gaze coldly fixed on Zhou Lisheng:
"Who told you to be so slow?"
Compared to hunting down other people, it's clear that the leader of the Great Xuan Demon Path is more popular.
Putting everything else aside, the life energy gained from killing the opponent must be considerable.
Moreover, the fact that the other party led a large number of powerful individuals to support Xue Chen this time also brought him considerable trouble.
If he hadn't possessed the Azure Emperor's inheritance, making him different from ordinary Celestial Masters, the outcome would have been truly uncertain.
The grand formation that Xue Chen had meticulously set up, combined with the power of the Blood God, should not normally be used against a Martial Saint like him; at the very least, it should be used against a Divine Body Martial Saint.
"you!"
Hearing Li Ming's casual remark, Zhou Lisheng was even more furious.
He's slow?
He's fast!
Having cultivated to the level of a Celestial Being for over a hundred years, one naturally makes up for the fatal weakness of speed immediately. Although one cannot compare to those martial artists who specialize in speed or certain exceptionally talented demon races, one is by no means slow.
Isn't Li Ming just making up some random excuse?
In a short span of time, Zhou Lisheng's expression changed more than a dozen times before finally returning to calm. He said calmly:
"Fine, so you're so confident you can kill me?"
“We don’t have any major hatred between us, so let’s call it even. I’ll owe you a favor, and I’ll restrain the demonic forces to prevent them from harming those around you.”
He knew very well that his strength was not as good as Xue Chen's, and he was probably no match for Li Ming.
But Li Ming had already unleashed so much power; how could he possibly have much energy left in such a short time?
He now possesses almost 80% of his full strength. If he grits his teeth and fights with all his might, the outcome is uncertain!
"Heh, fight if you want, retreat if you don't. Do you really think that just because you're the supreme Dao Ancestor in this Great Xuan, I'll give you face?"
Li Ming looked at Zhou Lisheng, who was still full of arrogance, and smiled.
Having arrived in this world, he is no longer the same as before, and his understanding of the world has undoubtedly broadened considerably.
At best, the other party is just a case of "when the tiger is away, the monkey becomes king." To Da Xuan, the other party may be the founder of the demonic path, but in the eyes of all the countries, or even a continent, he is just an ordinary strongman.
In those truly holy lands, even a disciple with accomplished cultivation could easily kill this "Demon Lord".
"It seems there's no room for negotiation..."
Zhou Lisheng could only sigh deeply, the long sword in his hand gleaming with a deep, eerie light:
"Since that's the case, then there's nothing more to say. I'd like to see if you, this junior, can kill me on this Black Cloud River!"
His ability to become the leader of the Great Xuan Demonic Path was certainly not without its advantages.
The Blue Moon Longsword in his hand was a divine weapon, and also the national treasure of the previous dynasty, the Eclipse Moon Divine Blade!
Thanks to his lineage as a member of the former imperial family, he was able to recognize this sword as his master and crawl out of that mountain of corpses and sea of blood, step by step, to where he is today.
"That's right."
Li Ming glanced at Zhou Lisheng, who was full of fighting spirit, and nodded in satisfaction.
The sword in his hand was already humming incessantly, clearly filled with fighting spirit.
In previous battles, even the power of divine weapons was of little use, but in battles of this level, a sword and a saber finally came in handy.
Bang!
In an instant, the two figures moved simultaneously, and the two streaks of light collided in mid-air!
Boom!
Thunder roared over the dark cloud-shrouded river, and the water surged like a water dragon soaring into the sky, then suddenly fell like a torrential rain.
But in the next instant, the temperature in the air suddenly rose, becoming scalding hot.
The river water kept boiling.
"What kind of physical body is this?"
Zhou Lisheng's pupils contracted violently.
I can't help but wonder.
Could it be that the other party has already achieved physical godhood and forged a divine body?
In that instant, his eyes felt as if they had been burned.
Human strength has its limits. Without becoming a martial god, even if one cultivates many external martial arts techniques, one is still far inferior to powerful races such as the dragon race and the elephant race.
However, the terrifying power of Li Ming's bursting blood and energy was far more terrifying than any celestial demon king he had ever seen.
Can a mortal body compare to gods and demons?
"Eclipse Moon Divine Blade, slash!"
Zhou Li let out a long roar, using all his life's knowledge and doing his utmost to unleash the power of the divine weapon.
He slashed out with a single stroke.
Then tens of thousands of tons of river water rose up, and for a moment, wind and thunder roared in the sky. The thunderclouds rolled, and it seemed as if a heavy rain was about to fall on the thousands of miles of rivers.
The moment Zhou Lisheng drew his sword, his figure also rose incredibly tall, surrounded by a dark blue demonic aura, adding boundless divine power to his strike.
With a single strike, it seemed as if heaven and earth trembled!
Rumble!
The earth shook and the sound was tremendous!
"Is this a battle between heaven and man?"
"No... this is the power of divine weapons, a battle between demigods on earth!"
At this moment, countless people on the earth and on the rivers witnessed this scene and were horrified.
On the Wuyun River, which flows endlessly and whose source is nowhere in sight, the water ripples as if wind dragons and water dragons are dancing together!
A mighty wave of energy spread in all directions, with countless lightning bolts intertwining and enveloping another figure, as if the sky were collapsing.
"good!"
Amidst the surging air currents, Li Ming remained motionless, then suddenly waved his hand, causing both divine weapons to unleash their powerful energy simultaneously.
Countless sword shadows transformed into a vast ocean of sword energy, majestic and awe-inspiring.
A sense of supreme superiority over heaven and earth arose spontaneously.
At the same time, a dazzling, blinding blade of light was unleashed at incredible speed.
Overwhelm everything, annihilate everything!
Everyone felt a terrifying pressure descend from the sky, making it impossible for them to lift their heads.
The mountains shook, and the rivers and seas broke apart!
...
Before long, the thunderclouds dissipated and the rivers calmed down.
Amidst the howling air currents, a disheveled figure wielding a long sword and carrying a long, disheveled head fled through the air.
Further away, a white-robed figure stepped through the air, with wind and thunder exploding beneath his feet, and pursued the enemy with an extremely domineering attitude!
"The Eclipse Moon Blade? The one being chased is the Demon Lord!"
"The one chasing him is Li Ming, the King of Cangzhou, Li Ming!"
A martial artist exclaimed in surprise, recognizing the two individuals, causing an uproar among everyone present.
"Isn't it said that the King of Cangzhou went to eradicate the Blood God Cult?"
Why are they fighting the Demon Lord?
Although the battle against the Blood God Cult ended quickly and was extremely intense, very few people actually witnessed it.
Because once that great formation was set up, ordinary people simply couldn't get close to it.
"it's over!"
Li Ming's eyes flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he traversed hundreds of feet, his powerful true essence whistling through the air along with the sword light.
He raised his long sword like a dragon, carrying endless killing intent, as if to cause all things to wither!
A blade of light, a thousand feet long, slashed towards Zhou Lisheng, who was fleeing in front of him!
Amidst the watchful eyes of thousands, Zhou Lisheng's physical body was directly annihilated by the blade's light.
His primordial spirit was also completely unprepared and was instantly annihilated by the Heavenly Blade of Annihilation!
The Demon Lord of this generation was thus annihilated, both in body and spirit.
