Chapter 553 The Demon Emperor's Conspiracy, The Righteous God is About to Be Reborn
The Succubus Queen had already made up her mind to no longer be Jiang Chen's enemy.
The Black Sky Demon King had lost a precious god-level avatar because of Jiang Chen, which was a huge blow to it.
From that moment on, the Black Demon King and Jiang Chen became sworn enemies.
For a long time, the Black Sky Demon King had been closely watching Jiang Chen's every move, trying to find an opportunity for revenge.
This time, it seems to have actually discovered some important information, which is why it found the Succubus Queen and asked her to help it enter the human world.
Lacking a stable foothold among humans, the Dark Lord could not come alone and could only place his hopes on the Succubus. The Succubus cleverly used the followers of the Demon Worship Society to successfully open a spacetime portal to the human world through sacrifice.
After enjoying the brief worship of her followers, the Succubus Queen obtained the latest information about Li Xueru from them.
Having obtained this information, she left the isolated island satisfied.
Her figure was hidden deep in the clouds, making her extremely difficult to detect.
As an abyssal demon who has set foot in the human world many times, she is well aware of the affairs and rules of the human race, and therefore does not act as ostentatiously as the Black Demon King.
She longed to return safely to the Abyss, bringing back this god-like avatar intact.
Soon, her gaze settled on the nearest city ahead, Jinling City.
"According to intelligence, Li Xueru visited Nanjing a few days ago." "He stayed in Nanjing for several hours before leaving, and the places he stayed have been taken over by the military."
"Based on this information, Nanjing should be safe now."
The Succubus Queen did not want to alert the god-level powerhouses among the human race, especially those from the Dragon Empire. Once she was targeted by these powerful figures, it would be difficult for her to escape.
Following the faint lingering scent, she quickly located the spot where Li Xueru had stood. What should have been a bustling market street was now deserted, surrounded by military patrols.
The Succubus's figure gradually faded away, and she quietly descended from the sky.
As instructed by the Demon Emperor, she needed to take the Demon Emperor's Crystal Ball to the location where Li Xueru had been and activate it.
With her strength, as long as she chooses to hide, it would be difficult for anyone to discover her presence unless they encounter a top-tier expert. "What kind of formation is this?"
She saw the array that Li Xueru had set up; it was complex and profound, and she could not understand its mysteries.
But this formation gave her an unprecedented sense of awe, as if it contained endless power.
According to intelligence, the formation set up by Li Xueru will cover the entire area of the Divine Dragon Empire.
What exactly is he planning?
The Succubus Queen remained wary of Li Xueru, preferring instead to confront direct and brutal enemies.
Li Xueru's profundity and mystery made him seem elusive to her.
"Why think about these things? Just complete the mission as the Demon Emperor instructed."
The Succubus adjusted her thoughts, found a relatively secluded corner, and gently activated the Demon Emperor Crystal Ball in her hand.
The crystal ball burned silently, eventually transforming into a faint purple light that merged into the array set up by Li Xueru.
"Mission accomplished."
"It seems a bit too simple."
The Succubus was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected the whole process to go so smoothly. This smoothness made her feel somewhat unreal.
Suddenly, a dazzling light burst forth from the formation, and a beam of light shot straight into the sky, like a giant bowl falling down, instantly enveloping the Succubus Queen.
The Succubus's face turned deathly pale instantly. She gritted her teeth and said, "I knew things wouldn't be that simple."
Immediately afterwards, a towering tower appeared in the air. The Succubus Queen looked up at the tower, her eyes filled with anger and resentment: "Dragon Tower! Li Xueru, you actually waited for me here!"
Li Xueru's figure appeared in front of the Divine Dragon Tower. He smiled calmly and said, "Succubus King, you take yourself too seriously."
“I had already anticipated that you abyssal demons wouldn’t let this go, so I set up an early warning mechanism in every formation.” “I thought it would only attract some small fry, but I didn’t expect to catch such a big fish as you.”
Li Xueru made a slight modification to the formation, both to guard against the threat of the abyss and to deter unsettling elements within the human race.
The Divine Dragon Tower possesses powerful teleportation capabilities, allowing Li Xueru to instantly reach any node in the array.
He alone can safeguard the safety of all formations.
The Succubus suddenly revealed a charming smile: "I was just curious to come and see. Tell me, what exactly are you going to all this trouble for?"
Li Xueru chuckled lightly: "Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand."
"I have important matters to attend to, so I won't keep you any longer. I'll see you off now."
Li Xueru's use of the word "send away" actually concealed a murderous intent.
A dazzling beam of light shot from the spire of the Divine Dragon Tower, weaving into a deadly array in the air. At the same time, the array on the ground began to rumble, the two echoing each other, their killing intent overwhelming.
The Succubus's expression changed drastically; she realized that her divine avatar was unlikely to survive today.
Even if she were to appear in person, she wouldn't be entirely confident that she could escape unscathed from a powerful figure like Li Xueru.
Moreover, it is currently just an avatar, which, according to the strength classification of the human race, has only just reached the level of level 90.
How could someone with such strength possibly compete with Li Xueru?
However, the Succubus Queen was not one to give up easily.
Her entire body burst into flames: "If you dare to touch me, I will self-destruct this clone and make the entire city of Jinling perish!"
With a whoosh, the Divine Dragon Tower instantly expanded to hundreds of meters high, its body piercing the clouds. The halos of light hanging from the tower formed barriers, completely isolating the base from the outside world.
"You don't have that chance." Li Xueru shook his head slightly. The Divine Dragon Tower sealed off the space; even if the Succubus King really self-destructed, it wouldn't affect Jinling City in the slightest.
The succubus's expression grew increasingly grim; she once again felt how troublesome and difficult Li Xueru was to deal with.
Rather than facing a formidable foe like Li Xueru, she would rather confront an opponent like Hong Jishi.
The array roared and radiated light, transforming into thousands of sharp swords that rained down on the Succubus King.
The Succubus Queen was engulfed in flames, with abyssal fire burning wildly, while black mist swirled around her, releasing a terrifying aura from the abyss in an attempt to break through the formation.
However, no matter how much it struggled, the formation remained unbreakable.
On the contrary, the formation's attacks, like a violent storm, gradually weakened the Succubus King's abyssal fire until it was almost extinguished.
The Succubus's face grew increasingly pale; she knew this clone was on the verge of death. The abyssal fire was almost extinguished; she could no longer hold on for even a moment longer.
Just then, the Succubus Queen's ears twitched slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
Suddenly, a black flame shot out from the ground and landed precisely in its hand.
It was the Demon Emperor Crystal, which had returned to the Succubus Queen's hands.
In an instant, flames roared from the Demon Emperor Crystal, and the Abyss Fire soared into the sky once more, forming a powerful protective shield that blocked Li Xueru's attack.
"what?"
Upon seeing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Li Xueru's eyes.
In the firelight, a slender, ethereal figure slowly emerged. Although its true appearance was obscured, its extraordinary aura was impossible to ignore.
As soon as the phantom appeared, the surrounding array collapsed like fragile glass. Then, the phantom looked up at the Divine Dragon Tower and pointed gently.
With a loud bang, the enormous Divine Dragon Tower was blasted away, and Li Xueru was also shaken and sent flying backward.
"go!"
The phantom gave a soft shout to the Succubus Queen.
Without hesitation, the Succubus King immediately flew off into the distance.
"Want to go?"
Li Xueru shouted and quickly controlled the Divine Dragon Tower to give chase.
Although the attack from that phantom was incredibly powerful, Li Xueru could tell that it wasn't a physical attack, and that such power could only be used one or two more times.
The Succubus Queen fled at incredible speed, while the Demon Emperor's phantom attacked Li Xueru once more. Li Xueru's expression turned grave, and he immediately raised the Divine Dragon Tower in front of him.
With a deafening roar, the Divine Dragon Pagoda was once again sent flying, and Li Xueru was also sent flying backward by the force of the impact.
A trickle of blood escaped from the corner of his mouth, indicating that he had suffered a serious injury.
The Succubus was overjoyed at the sight; with the Demon Emperor's help, her clone could finally be saved.
However, just as it was about to disappear from sight, a sharp sword light suddenly shot out from afar.
The sword light streaked across the night sky like a meteor, instantly covering a hundred miles of sky, heading straight for the fleeing succubus king.
The Succubus suddenly stopped, staring at the sword light with a look of horror.
Immediately afterwards, the Succubus's body disintegrated, leaving only a deep flame burning fiercely in the void.
The phantom in the flames roared angrily, "Jiang Yi, you have actually reappeared in the world!" Li Xueru was also stunned by this sudden change. He muttered to himself, "Yi Shen, he has really been reborn."
He had learned from ancient books about the rumor that Jiang Yi might be reborn, but he knew how difficult it was, almost impossible.
Unexpectedly, all of this actually came true, and at an astonishing speed.
This is enough to prove that the mysterious being in the ancient battlefield possesses unimaginable power.
Even heroes who have been dead for hundreds of years can be reborn with his help.
In the air, a long sword appeared out of nowhere, its blade radiating an aura of vastness, as if transcending the boundaries of time and space.
Li Xueru recognized it at a glance; it was the legendary sword Jiang Yi had used back then, the Demon-Slaying Sword.
A majestic and profound voice came from the sword: "Demon Emperor, it has been many years since we last met. I, Jiang, have missed you dearly. When I truly return, I will personally step into the abyss and fight you once more!" The voice echoed between heaven and earth, filled with unwavering conviction and boundless fighting spirit.
Immediately afterwards, the Demon-Slaying Sword flashed and instantly shattered the Demon Emperor's phantom into countless fragments.
Li Xueru swiftly flew to the Demon-Slaying Sword and respectfully asked, "Lord Righteous God, when will you truly return?"
He had just overheard their conversation and knew that although Jiang Yi had not been fully reborn, he was already able to control the Demon-Slaying Sword and roam the world slaying demons.
The Demon-Slaying Sword trembled slightly, emitting a melodious sword hum, as if responding to Li Xueru's question: "It will be soon. I am deeply gratified that the human race has a hero like you. When I return in full force, I will fight alongside you to protect this world!"
After saying this, the Demon-Slaying Sword transformed into a dazzling sword light, piercing the sky and instantly disappearing into the distance.
