Chapter I

In December of the 568th year of the Eltino calendar, the White Deer Cave of El Tino

The joint battle between Bai Qi and Li Yu, the perfect combination of the power of Taitian and the consciousness of Tianxin, made the Great Demon King Yongzheng fail unprecedentedly, and the evil results of this perfect combination are not only limited to actual combat, Li Yu also vaguely felt a breakthrough in the process of fighting, and the power was like the tide of the rising tide, and it couldn't stop climbing online.

If this situation continues, Li Yu may even be promoted to a realm that no one has reached in two thousand years in this battle, becoming another powerful martial artist on the Wind Continent who has broken through the Taitian Rank after the previous Demon King Temujin.

It's a pity that he couldn't get such an opportunity, because the overly strong force added to his body, which was already on the verge of collapse, and Yongzheng, who saw this, hit hard, so that Li Yu's body that maintained a dangerous balance officially collapsed, and later in Yongzheng's one-blow fight, Bai Qi's residual consciousness was broken, leaving Li Yu to fight alone.

"Brother Li, my last strength can only help you get here, and there is not much time left, please cherish yourself. "Bai Qi is a very responsible person, even though his consciousness has been eliminated, he still blocked a blow to the head for Li Yu, and when he was eliminated, he stabilized the rising power in Li Yu's body, gaining valuable time and combat effectiveness, so that Li Yu could continue to fight.

In comparison, Yongzheng's situation is extremely bad, he is obviously fully prepared, but he is still suffering continuous heavy blows, and even the demon core that maintains life is on the verge of shattering. Although he healed his body as soon as he could, he grew most of his body. But the strength is only two percent of the original, as long as the opponent makes up for another sword, he will have no physiology.

But Mo said that there are only two percent of the strength left, looking at Li Yu's current state, it can be called the moment when the flame of life burns the most intensely, even if he is unharmed and has full strength, he may not be the enemy of his five moves, and the joint hand of the two human beings has indeed created a miracle.

(If this power is in my possession...... )

The pressure of death hangs over the shadow. Yongzheng's performance did not show fear, but leaked a smile in his chest.

The next one, Yongzheng, who was falling at high speed, suddenly saw a flower around him. As if forcibly condensed and frozen by the sword seal of the imperial seal, Li Yu appeared beside him, raised his sword, and the bright snow burst out with a dazzling light like stars.

"For the benefit and survival of the demon race, I have never regretted what I have done in my life; Right now...... Let's do it. ”

"You go to die!" Full of anger, Li Yucai didn't care what Yongzheng said, but a faint voice came into his ears, but just when he was urging his strength and preparing to kill the Great Demon God King with a sword, there was a bang in his head, and countless pictures flowed into his mind like a hundred rivers and a sea.

This kind of experience, Li Yu also had in the past, when he traveled with Ailing, the Wolf Howling Knights of the Blood Station, and when he reached the Heavenly Sword Formation, his state reached the peak of that time, and he angrily broke through the Heavenly Sword Formation, and even made a breakthrough in his swordsmanship, completing the Heavenly Trace Immovable Sword.

The feeling at that time was similar to the moment, but now the feeling is even stronger, countless memory pictures are flowing through my mind in an instant, but the memories that flashed back to the footnote before this time are all pictures of various sword learning and sword learning in my life.

All the brands in the Wind Continent have swordsmanship, the thirty-six extinctions of the White Deer Cave, the ancestral Qinglian Sword Song, the Heavenly Traces that I have realized do not move the sword, and even every opponent who has tried the sword in the world at the beginning, as well as every strong enemy who has fought on a different continent, all kinds of sword skills they have made flashed in their minds in an instant.

When these pictures flashed in my mind, many of the places that I usually couldn't understand were suddenly penetrated in an instant, and in those spider-like and complicated sword shadows, Li Yu suddenly found some melodies, some truths, and some exclusive to Li Yu...... Road!

The bright snow that is high and pointing to the sky, the brilliance suddenly increases the brightness, the glow of the shining stars becomes as bright and dazzling as the sun, and the change before and after only occurs in an instant, but at the same time as the sword of the bright muscle snow is blazing, the sky pointed by the tip of the sword is silently broken, and it is like being penetrated by some huge sharp energy, and the bright sky is torn out of a huge crack that is more than ten miles long, and the starlight is transmitted from it, forming a strange wonder of the sun and the moon in the same sky.

This scene shocked Yongzheng again, and it was not only this thing that surprised him. Originally, with the cultivation of the same level, even if he lost the vicious battle, he could still feel the strength and domineering of the man in front of him, but suddenly, although Li Yu was still standing next to him, he suddenly became ethereal and unfathomable, so that he could no longer grasp the depth of this man's cultivation, and he didn't even know if the final life-saving was effective.

From these signs, Yongzheng understood in shock, until Li Yu had already surpassed the Taitian Position, stepped into the realm that only Temujin had glimpsed before his death, beyond man, into the ultimate realm of God.

Li Yu himself did not perceive this, what he saw in his eyes, what he heard, what he thought in his heart, and what he touched by the six senses, all of which were like the vast ocean of "Dao", if he could, he wanted to let go of his own mind, wandering in this sea of Dao, desperately trying to absorb every truth here, but the pain in his body made him wake up, until he had little time left, and had to forcibly interrupt his thoughts and feelings and return to reality.

The sword is still held high, if this peerless sword is cut down, at this time on the Wind Continent, I believe that no one and no force can stop it, Li Yu can feel the pain that almost decomposes the entire body, and knows that the remaining time is only a few breaths at most, and at the moment he is holding the hilt of the sword, and he is about to slash it down, when he suddenly realizes something unusual.

If it was before, Li Yu would never have noticed this, even if it was the Heavenly Heart Consciousness of the Aether Heavenly Position, he would not be able to see through this point in a short period of time, but it was precisely because Li Yu had already made a breakthrough, and his strength and cultivation had increased greatly, that he could see through the enemy's various weaknesses at a glance, so he noticed this anomaly.

Under the close scanning of Tianxin consciousness, all the internal troubles and injuries were not followed, Li Yu clearly saw that Yongzheng's internal organs were injured everywhere, how serious the bleeding situation was, and those even the rapid healing ability of the etheric heaven could not recover in a short time, however, in the scanning results, Li Yu could not find the most important thing.

The core that sustains life is gone!

There is a common sense that everyone knows. The core in the demon chest is as important as the human heart, and if the demon core is broken, the demon will definitely die. Therefore, if you want to kill the demon clan, you usually start at the demon core, and there has never been an example of the demon core being able to save your life. Then, common sense is not equal to truth in the end, especially when the power reaches the Taitian position, with this powerful force, a lot of common sense can be overthrown and changed.

At the moment when Yongzheng was finally knocked away, he did something, and it was also the life-saving thing he set up for this battle, and the last move, he temporarily removed his demon core from the body, even if he was blown to pieces by the enemy's heavy moves, and his limbs were completely gone, it was still possible to recover and come back with the demon core removed from the body, the only miscalculation was that he didn't expect Li Yu to break through the Taitian position in battle and enter an incalculable ultimate realm.

All the assumptions of Yongzheng are aimed at the situation of fighting in the Taitian position, but in the face of a breakthrough Li Yu, Yongzheng himself is not sure that Li Yu's sword will not affect the demon core that is temporarily out of the body while smashing the enemy's body, everything can only be decided by God, Yongzheng, who has pressed all the chips, waiting for the answer to be revealed. All Yongzheng can do is wait, but Li Yu, who is facing a trade-off, is in a difficult situation, and Li Yu is not sure of what Yongzheng is not sure of. A sword down, in the end, can successfully kill the enemy, while smashing the body, but also affect the destruction of the demon core, or cut the grass without removing the roots, the spring breeze blows and regenerates, suddenly giving the enemy a chance to be reborn.

If it is the latter, the situation will be far more serious than now, because after this battle, Yongzheng, who has grown in knowledge and death, is very likely to make a further breakthrough, if he takes this ultimate blow and does not die, the probability of getting a breakthrough is as high as ninety percent, and at that time, there will be no one on the Wind Continent who can compete with it.

If there is enough time, he can search with his Tianxin consciousness and find out the demon core of Yongzheng's body, with his current cultivation, this matter will not be difficult, but unfortunately, the body that is about to collapse, the remaining time is not enough......

After losing Bai Qi's assistance, he did not have the ruthlessness to make a decision, he only felt that both ends of the balance were extremely difficult, and there were risks and regrets at any end of the choice.

However, time waits for no one, and the time of just a few breaths is fleeting, and when Li Yu realizes this, his rapidly disintegrating body no longer has the strength to swing the sword down.

"Damn, I don't accept it!" A roar full of anger, unwillingness, and remorse, piercing through the sky, Li Yu's body began to disintegrate from under his feet, little by little, scattered flowers into a rotating colorful starlight, scattered around;

has been indecisive all his life, and even at the moment before his death, he can't get out of this wrong cycle, and Li Yu feels extremely humiliated by remorse. But I just watched the enemy get proud, and I could only let my body disintegrate, but I couldn't do anything?

(No, I still have one more thing I can do, I don't know how it works, but ...... )

The speed of disintegration was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, the little light debris star shower had already swept to the waist, turning Li Yu from the waist down into a brilliant colored light, and Li Yu did not hesitate, the remaining strength of his whole body was already concentrated in his right arm, containing his resentment and regret, all of which were pushed into the Ming muscle snow in his palm, so that the ball of light, which was already as dazzling as the sun, exploded in a loud bang, turned into countless meteor points of light, and shot into the sky in all directions.

The shock wave formed by the explosion swept wildly, the huge energy converged and the result of the explosion, the surrounding space suddenly became pitch black, and only Li Yu, who gradually disappeared, became the last light source in the darkness.

Yongzheng can be said to be the most wrong person. Li Yu's sword did not cut off, but exploded on the way, and under the influence of the power of the shock wave, he was also shocked far away, but he was still puzzled in his heart, and he couldn't figure out whether Li Yu was too much to drum, and the sword body couldn't bear it, so it was blown to pieces, or if he had other intentions, it was estimated that his luck forced the Ming muscle snow.

"Why?" Stunned, Yongzheng couldn't help but ask this, but the words that came out of his mouth were not answered. Under the gaze of his gaze, Li Yu's figure became brighter and brighter, and in the bits of stars that couldn't help but decompose and disperse, a white light that was impossible to look at ignited, enveloping his whole person, quickly increasing the brightness, and burning the dark space around him into daylight.

"Why?"

At the brightest moment of the white light, Yongzheng saw a smile on Li Yu's face, that smile was very strange, like he was very relieved, as if he had no regrets, but thinking of the angry roar not long ago, Yongzheng didn't understand why he had such a smile, why he could have no regrets.

It takes time to answer the question, and under Yongzheng's attention, the white light blooms, turning into a little star, like a huge cyan lotus flower rotating and blooming;

After Yongzheng witnessed all this, his chest suddenly ached, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood. This short quarter of an hour was the hardest battle he had fought after the Battle of Gufeng two thousand years ago, and the price he paid was far greater than expected, and now although he ended the realm, his injuries were so serious that even the speed of physical healing slowed down a lot.

Li Yu has been killed on the battlefield, Bai Qi has also been eliminated, it stands to reason that there will be no opponents in the human world who can threaten him, there is only one thing that makes people feel quite reassured, that is, before Li Yu's death, Ming Jixue inexplicably exploded, this incident is making Yongzheng feel unusual.

"This ...... It's ......"

When the battle was over, he refocused his mind and focused his attention in the direction of Hülegü, and suddenly sensed a strange aura coming from that direction.

Lancelot and his party have already been severely injured by themselves, although they are not opponents when they send a small celestial combat force over, let alone Hulegu and Shi Chong, they are all first-class masters of their own side, and it should be easy to annihilate the enemy, but what is the matter with this kind of aura flow? The battle is still going on? Who still has the ability to fight?

Because his attention was attracted by the battle in the direction of Hülegü, Yongzheng did not continue to think deeply about the current situation, and because of this, he did not find a very important thing, that is, the end of this battle, through the realm space, took place in the demon world.

Among the names of the people classified by Yongzheng as the enemy camp, there is a small person who is inconspicuous to Yongzheng, who left the human world a few months ago and quietly returned to the demon world to conduct intelligence investigation. Because of his low-key actions, and he has never been able to find anything important, although Yongzheng knew that there was such a thing, he did not stop it, because of the lack of talents in the magic foot, compared to the pure-blooded and purebred humans, as a grinding man, Hunter was still listed as one of the targets that Yongzheng wanted to recruit.

However, it has been several months since he returned to the Demon Circle, and with the covert support of the Qinglou Alliance, the scope of his tentacles is actually far wider than Yongzheng knows, especially after meeting Nier in the Termination Mountain, he has made contact with some related people, and is active in the rear of the enemy.

On this day, Han Te, who was in the barracks, was actively encouraging the people around him with his incorruptible tongue, due to the difficulty of reaching a conclusion on the topic, the discussion atmosphere was a little stiff, Han Tezheng was feeling anxious, suddenly, an inexplicable throbbing welled up in his heart, making him restless, stood up from the chair, and ran out of the military tent, faintly, as if he heard the call of some voice.

Outside the military tent, there is no sun in the sky of the demon world, no matter how many times you look up, what you can see is only darkness, and then, this common sense was broken today, and Han Te, who ran out of the military tent, saw something that was difficult to appear in the exclamation of a group of demons and demon residents outside the tent, meteor shower.

A little bit of stars, in the dark sky to draw a fire-like brilliant rainbow, colorful, falling in all directions, every place where the ground is lit fire, confirming the natural disaster power of the star shower falling to the ground.

On average, there may not be a spectacle once in hundreds of years, and there has been a commotion and discussion among the inhabitants of the Demon Realm, but Hante has a different feeling, and in this meteor shower with dazzling rumors, he feels some kind of power, and some kind of ...... Feelings of sadness.

Suddenly, a meteor pierced the sky, but it fell straight down in this direction, and a series of flames were pulled out in the air, as if it was some kind of heavenly punishment, and it bombarded the ground;

"Boom...... The explosion was loud, but Hant, who was ready to take the impact, didn't feel anything. The size of the flame meteor was unexpectedly small, and when the Thunder Sword passed through the layers of flames and touched the entity inside the meteor, it was suddenly found that it was only the size of ten little fingers, like gold and not gold, like wood and not wood, I don't know what it was. But the moment the blade touched the core of the meteor, Han felt a wave through his body, and the core seemed to be searching for something, making some kind of confirmation.

Blood type, brain waves, true qi characteristics, and most importantly, the most difficult to forge personal spirit waves, up to twenty confirmations, were identified in an instant, and when it was confirmed that the target was Han Te, the pop core Buddha unveiled some kind of password protection, and began to change shape, and then in the illusory flame illusion, an object began to take shape in front of Han Te's eyes.

"It's ......"

The form was a little blurry, but Han Te could still see that at that time, a broken wooden sword that had been disassembled was converging and forming in front of his eyes in the form of pure energy. There are thousands of famous swords in the world, and it is impossible for Han Te to recognize all of them, but this half-folded wooden sword Han Te is very familiar with, and it is undoubtedly the sword of his best friend Li Yu - Ming Jixue.

The meaning of Ming Jixue to Li Yu is like the Ming Thunder Sword to himself, although it is not only to the extent that the sword is in the person and the sword is forgotten, but if he suddenly hands over the sword to his friend and he does not appear, it only symbolizes one meaning.

"Open...... Just kidding...... How can there be such a thing, you are obviously a picture that you can't kill no matter how you kill, how can you ......"

With a trembling voice, the demon hunter, who had always been fearless, even shook his hand holding the sword, and for a short moment, he really thought that his friend would suddenly appear, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, all this is just a joke, however, this idea was shattered in the next moment.

"No...... Don't play this joke on me, I'm a very serious person, you must not ......" The heavy psychological pressure almost made Hant unable to move, and it took him a long time to raise his trembling arm and hold it towards the burning snow like a flame.

The moment his fingers touched the flames, many scenes ran in front of Han Te, telling him what had happened in the human world at the moment, how Yongzheng appeared in the human world with an invincible attitude, how the battle between the two Taitian powerhouses broke out and how it ended.

Among them, Li Yu's mood, those feelings of reluctance, unwillingness, and resentment, were completely transmitted to Han Te, letting him know what kind of determination his friend made at the last moment of his life, and entrusted his regrets to himself with the last strength.

In those memory pictures, in addition to the life-and-death duel between Li Yu and Yongzheng, as well as Li Yu's martial arts experience, these things were all passed on to Han Te through Ming Jixue, if he can comprehend these messages and integrate them, he will only be in a strong heaven position at present, and his strength will increase dramatically, and he will not be under anyone in the Wind Continent.

Entrusting these things to Hunter was a choice that Li Yu had to make, and it was true that in the Reyns camp, Lancelot.

Nier's martial arts talent is far superior to Han Te, even Yuan Wulang and Quan Ying are better than Han Te's martial arts practice, but when Li Yu dies, these people may be immediately killed by Yongzheng and Hülegü, and they have no chance to digest and comprehend these information.

In contrast, Hante, who is in the Demon Realm, is a safe and multi-choice option, with enough time to hide and understand, even if all the personnel on Reins' side are wiped out, he still has the possibility of making a comeback with the torch of hope.

"Original...... You're gone...... You are a mess, I still have the money to pay you back, so I run away without saying a word, won't I become a bastard who pays off the debt? What is this?" When they were separated in Japan, compared to the two friends who had many agreements, they were full of confidence at that time, thinking that these agreements could be realized, and then, he and Li Yu forgot one thing, the current era is still a troubled time, every time we meet, it may be a permanent secret, this is the common sense of troubled times, I really shouldn't be like a child who solves people, and take it for granted that I will go back next time. "You must be very unwilling to die in the hands of the enemy like this, right? You are a person, you have been indecisive all your life, if you are like Boss Bai, a little more ruthless, will the situation be rewritten soon?" Not only Li Yu, Han Te and Bai Qi also have a personal relationship, although it is far from the kind of acquaintance he and Li Yu have, but learning that Bai Qi has passed away also makes Han Te very gloomy. In just one day, two of his most important friends died one after another, and for Hante, this was the most sad day for him since the death of his entire family.

After completing the mission, the popular fire gradually dissipated, and the sky of the demon world returned to darkness, and there was no light source, leaving only a lonely figure floating in mid-air.

"You two guys...... Leave your regrets to me, I won't let you go unwillingly. ”
