The dust drifted slowly to the ground as two figures stood suspended in midair. One had hair and beard of pure white, with the bearing of an immortal — none other than Ye Mo, the god of war in the hearts of every citizen of the City of Radiance. The other was a young man dressed entirely in white, his whole body enveloped in a terrifying storm. This was the Demon Lord who had clashed with Nie Li before!
The Demon Lord stood proudly in the sky, the vast power of his Black Prison Law swirling around him, occasionally manifesting into the forms of various demonic creatures.
"Ye Mo, it's been quite a while. I didn't expect that even after hiding so deep, you'd still manage to track me down." The Demon Lord spoke with a cold smile. Even facing the entirety of the City of Radiance alone, he remained utterly composed.
"It has been many years, and yet the Demon Lord has graced our City of Radiance once again. Might I ask what business brings you here?" Ye Mo's hair and beard stirred without wind, and the various Wind Snow Law auras around him surged, condensing into shards of ice from time to time.
"The City of Radiance doesn't seem very welcoming. After all, I am someone who came from this very city." The Demon Lord smiled lightly, his overwhelming aura pressing down toward Ye Mo.
"You betrayed the City of Radiance and were expelled long ago." Ye Mo furrowed his brow. He could feel that the Demon Lord's Law power was several times stronger than before, completely overpowering him.
A suffocating pressure bore down on Ye Mo, making it feel as though every bone in his body was about to shatter.
The Demon Lord laughed wildly, his gaze turning icy cold. "A bunch of self-righteous people! Was it I who betrayed the City of Radiance, or was it the City of Radiance that betrayed me? I won't bother settling old scores — you should count yourselves fortunate."
"If you're not here to settle scores, then why have you come to the City of Radiance?" Ye Mo stared coldly at the Demon Lord.
"The City of Radiance has something I want. Hand it over, and all our old grievances will be wiped clean. Otherwise, I'll turn this entire city upside down!" A hint of madness crept across the Demon Lord's face.
"What is it that you want?" Ye Mo's heart stirred, and he frowned as he spoke.
"Don't play dumb. Hand over the Demon Spirit Stone that sealed that Demon Beast. I'll let everything in the past go. Otherwise, don't blame me for slaughtering everyone." The Demon Lord snorted coldly.
Nie Li frowned. A Demon Spirit Stone that had sealed a Demon Beast? What was that about?
So the Demon Lord had come for a Demon Spirit. What kind of Demon Beast could it possibly be, to make even the Eight-Armed Monster Demon Lord so eager?
Sensing the Demon Lord's aura growing ever stronger, Ye Mo was gradually struggling to hold his ground. Nie Li soared into the air and stood shoulder to shoulder with Ye Mo. Staring coldly at the Demon Lord, three streams of Law power lanced toward him.
"You again." The Demon Lord's narrow pupils contracted slightly upon seeing Nie Li. He gave a cold snout. "If not for you, the City of Radiance would already be in my hands. If you insist on standing in my way, then don't blame me for erasing you from existence!"
"Demon Lord, it's not as though we haven't fought before. If you can kill me, then come and try!" Nie Li radiated an imposing aura.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh — the Feather Flame Goddess, Duan Jian, Du Ze, Lu Piao, Ye Ziyun, Xiao Ning'er, Ye Zong, and the others all soared into the air, facing the Demon Lord from every side and surrounding him in the center.
More than a dozen streams of Law power all struck toward the Demon Lord simultaneously.
Boom boom boom!
The Law powers collided in violent explosions across the sky.
Although the Demon Lord's Black Prison Law power was immensely powerful, it could not withstand the combined assault of so many opponents. He grunted, then roared in fury and swiftly fused with the Eight-Armed Monster.
The Eight-Armed Monster, its entire body crimson, bellowed wildly as it hurled punch after punch toward them.
Nie Li snorted coldly. Activating his Soul Sea and fusing with the Tiger Fang Panda Demon Spirit, he opened his mouth and unleashed a frenzy of Light-Dark Energy Explosions at the Eight-Armed Monster.
A fierce battle erupted in the sky. The group swarmed the Demon Lord while his Eight-Armed Monster wielded a razor-sharp weapon in each of its eight hands, clashing with everyone in midair.
Nie Li furrowed his brow. The Supreme Body was truly formidable. In this exchange, the Demon Lord's strength had risen by yet another level. His first Life Soul was likely about to fully condense. In the Small Linglong World, any powerhouse who had condensed a Life Soul was extraordinarily powerful — no number of Demigod-level fighters could stand against them.
Despite being heavily outnumbered, the Demon Lord's physical body was tremendously strong, and for the time being there were no signs of his defeat.
It seemed he would need to use some trump cards. Nie Li drew the Celestial Meteor Thunder Sword, and bolts of lightning immediately converged upon it from every direction.
Spotting the weapon in Nie Li's hand, the Demon Lord's pupils contracted. This fellow really had been hiding some trump cards. From the Celestial Meteor Thunder Sword, the Demon Lord sensed an aura of pure destruction.
The Celestial Meteor Thunder Sword was a terrifying weapon. Even when Nie Li had been at the Gold rank, he could already unleash its devastating power. Now at the Legendary rank, its might was even more shocking. Lightning from the endless heavens all converged upon the Celestial Meteor Thunder Sword, and Nie Li roared as he slashed toward the Demon Lord.
A colossal bolt of lightning, hundreds of meters long, crashed down upon the Demon Lord.
