How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 480 - 0475: Late Stage of the Joint Battle

After Chen Yu left, it was not long before the Bone Demon Array was broken through.

But the members of the three sects quickly formed other arrays, both large and small, all of which were primarily defensive.

The foundation of any power had been built over countless years, and they certainly had no shortage of trump cards.

Boom!

While defending, an enormous skeletal King shrouded in black Qi, along with rolling netherworldly Demonic Qi, burst out from the forbidden grounds of the Bone Demon Palace. Its massive black bony hand swung fiercely, whipping up a pitch-black tornado that swept everything in its path.

Immediately, several Innate cultivators were caught in the black wind and were torn into countless pieces.

Those in the Early Guiyuan Realm could only dodge and retreat, daring not to resist head-on.

Bang!

The War Alliance Clan Leader suddenly stood out, swinging a massive war hammer and conjuring a strong gust of wind, fiercely bringing it down.

The two violent twisters intertwined and tore at each other until they both completely dissipated.

After one attack, the Bone Demon King also adopted a defensive posture, standing guard next to the combined forces of the three sects and one palace.

"Attack with all your might," the War Alliance Clan Leader shouted.

Once Tie Yuanshan killed Chen Yu, they would immediately retreat. Before then, the more they could kill, the better, in order to weaken Chu Country’s strength as much as possible.

At this moment, a piercing sword light flew from afar.

One could see that the Lingjian Sect Ancestor and Elder Duanmu, stepping on a silver long sword, were approaching at an astonishing speed, tearing through the sky.

The Lingjian Sect’s support had arrived!

The technique the Lingjian Sect Ancestor used was the Lingjian Sect Sword-controlling Forbidden Technique, which could unleash incredible speed in a short period, but it could only carry two people at most. Therefore, he had brought Elder Duanmu with him.

Although the support consisted of just two people, it was better than none, and Chu Country’s situation was somewhat relieved.

"So quick?"

The War Alliance Clan Leader frowned and looked toward the Refining Iron Clan Chief.

Right away, the Refining Iron Clan Chief personally led three individuals from the Guiyuan Realm to launch an attack.

...

"Youngster, give up on your resistance. To die at the hands of someone in the Late Guiyuan Realm is already an honor for you," Tie Yuanshan’s flat voice transformed into a sonic wave, blasting forward.

Chen Yu and the Red Flame King moved extremely fast; Tie Yuanshan, who had forced his way to the Late Guiyuan Realm, was slightly weaker in all aspects compared to those who had normally broken through to the same stage, including speed.

Tie Yuanshan, making all haste, could only slowly close the distance with Chen Yu.

Behind Tie Yuanshan was the Mantu Clan Chief, riding a Three-headed Blue Steel Eagle. His speed was not fast, but he wasn’t losing ground either.

"Chen Yu’s True Yuan quantity cannot match Tie Yuanshan. He won’t be able to escape. Once Tie Yuanshan catches up, when I and he join forces, Chen Yu will undoubtedly die," thought the Mantu Clan Chief, who was not at all anxious.

"Damn it, it was already enough to draw out someone from the Late Guiyuan Realm, but why did the Mantu Clan Chief also follow," Chen Yu was somewhat troubled.

With his strength combined with the Red Flame King, facing one from the Peak of Middle Stage Guiyuan Realm and one from the Late Guiyuan Realm, it was not a matter of winning but a feat to survive at all.

At this moment, a commotion emerged on Chen Yu’s body, a trace of contact surged at the mental level.

"Hmm?"

Chen Yu’s face showed joy, and a bug appeared in his palm.

After consuming the innards of a Red-eyed Jiao, the Iron Moon Strange Insect’s cultivation had greatly improved, reaching the Early Guiyuan Realm Peak, and it seemed very close to the Middle Stage Guiyuan Realm. Probably due to the long lifespan and profound foundation of the Red-eyed Jiao.

"Youngster, perish," shouted Tie Yuanshan from behind.

Unknowingly, Tie Yuanshan was already very close to Chen Yu and the Red Flame King.

In the void, a pitch-black iron hand suddenly reached out, as if it intended to crush everything.

"Strike!"

Chen Yu pulled out the Giant Ruler Sword and mustered the Blood Crystal Flame, hacking out a tyrannical and vividly red sword light.

The Red Flame King spat out a scorching red fireball from its mouth.

Boom bang!

The attacks from the one man and one beast collided with the pitch-black iron hand, both forces obliterating each other.

Half a breath later, the pitch-black iron hand shredded both the sword light and the fireball but became extremely transparent itself.

Bang!

Chen Yu once again swung his sword, shattering the iron hand.

At the same time, he and the Red Flame King escaped again.

Tie Yuanshan would not let go and immediately pursued.

"Hehe, they have started to fight. Under normal circumstances, Chen Yu and the Red Flame King are no match for someone from the Late Guiyuan Realm," the Mantu Clan Chief said with a light chuckle, continuing the chase.

But suddenly, from the trees below, a light blue light shot out.

Chen Yu had silently released the Iron Moon Strange Insect during the melee with Tie Yuanshan and had it lying in ambush here.

As an Insect Cultivator, the Mantu Clan Chief had keen observations and immediately noticed the Iron Moon Strange Insect.

Ding!

The Iron Moon Strange Insect struck the chest of the Three-headed Blue Steel Eagle, emitting a metallic clink.

The Iron Moon Strange Insect bit fiercely with its mouth, burrowing into the body of the Three-headed Blue Steel Eagle.

"Such a formidable Iron Moon Strange Insect, it’s a mutated species, and it has been well-fed," noticed the Mantu Clan Chief. He slapped the back of the Three-headed Blue Steel Eagle with one hand, injecting powerful True Yuan, and, along with his mount, forced the Iron Moon Strange Insect out.

Swoosh!

The Iron Moon Strange Insect attacked the Mantu Clan Chief.

The Mantu Clan Chief waved his hand, and three different species of insects rushed out, forming a group to kill the Iron Moon Strange Insect.

But the Iron Moon Strange Insect was a mutated insect king, with profound cultivation and incredible might; in an instant, it bit many insects to pieces.

Its own defensive power was strong, and being so small in size, even if several insects charged at it, they had trouble wounding the Iron Moon Strange Insect.

Bang!

The Mantu Clan Chief suddenly made a move, ferociously slapping out with his palm. The powerful True Yuan palm force blasted out, hitting the Iron Moon Strange Insect.

The Iron Moon Strange Insect shrieked and was sent flying dozens of feet, but its injuries did not seem serious.

The Iron Moon Strange Insect fixed its gaze on the Mantu Clan Chief, ready to launch an attack at any moment.

"This Iron Moon Strange Insect is so formidable. Once I capture it, I’ll deal with Chen Yu next."

The Mantu Clan Chief was highly interested in the Iron Moon Strange Insect and immediately went to kill it.

Instantly, the Iron Moon Strange Insect turned and fled.

...

Elsewhere, through the Iron Moon Strange Insect, Chen Yu saw some blurry images.

As the distance grew wider, Chen Yu lost sight of the Iron Moon Strange Insect, but he could ascertain that it had successfully lured away the Mantu Clan Chief.

The pursuit continued for a while longer, during which Chen Yu, the Red Flame King, and Tie Yuanshan exchanged blows a few times, each failing to gain the upper hand.

"That’s far enough."

Chen Yu muttered to himself and suddenly turned around, the Red Flame King also stopped.

"Finally not fleeing?"

Tie Yuanshan asked flatly.

He could tell that Chen Yu and the Red Flame King were confident, only not fleeing because they wanted to engage in a battle with him.

But it only showed how naïve and arrogant the young people of today are, and their beast’s intelligence was not much better.

"If we keep fleeing, it’ll be too far. I’m still waiting for the supports from Qi Country and Yan Country to arrive and take you down."

Chen Yu said with a smile.

He was certain that once the reinforcements from Qi Country and Yan Country arrived in full, the Snow Mountain Tribe would suffer a great defeat.

Of course, he couldn’t keep fleeing indefinitely, as he was only at the early Guiyuan Realm Peak and had less True Yuan than someone in the late Guiyuan Realm.

Once his True Yuan was exhausted, he would be at the mercy of his opponent.

"Old fool, today I will send you to the Netherworld."

The Red Flame King spoke with much more power than Chen Yu.

"Haha, good."

Tie Yuanshan laughed heartily, paying no mind to the conceit of the beast.

Without further ado, Tie Yuanshan suddenly made his move.

Boom! Boom!

The wind and clouds of heaven and earth stirred violently as two dark, ancient Iron Claws viciously reached for Chen Yu and the Red Flame King.

Chen Yu immediately activated his Secret Pattern Demon Body, his body gleaming in black light, with demonic patterns faintly visible, projecting an evil and terrifying presence.

Simultaneously, Chen Yu also marshaled what little was left of his "Dragon Scale Bloodline," and a layer of blood-red scales appeared on his black body.

"Swallowing Cloud Demon Fist."

Chen Yu used his newly learned battle technique, with the Devil Claw Secret Pattern on his left arm suddenly radiating black light and moving about, stretching up to his fist.

His fist generated a suction force, gathering Demonic Qi and Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi from all directions and forming a massive shadow of a Demon Fist, etched with vicious black patterns.

Boom!

A colossal black fist shadow shot up into the sky, growing larger and larger, crashing into the dark Iron Hands.

After a brief standoff, the Demon Fist was crushed, turning into a rolling mass of black demonic clouds that further destroyed the Iron Hands.

Roar!

The Iron Hands broke through layers of demonic clouds and continued onward.

By the time this strike reached Chen Yu’s face, its power had been reduced by seventy percent, and with one thrust of his sword, Chen Yu destroyed it.

Chen Yu was quite satisfied with the power of the Swallowing Cloud Demon Fist. If he were to break through to the Middle Stage of the Guiyuan Realm, one fist would have been enough to block the strike.

On the other side, the Red Flame King fully activated his Holy Beast Bloodline, the temperature around him rising sharply as he spat out a fireball with the phantom of a Qilin within.

Bang! Boom!

The fireball burst apart, its raging flames covering the surface of the Iron Hands and burning fiercely.

Visibly, the dark Iron Hand slowly shrank.

The Red Flame King sprayed another torrent of flame tornadoes that swept out, colliding with the Iron Hands for a long while until both dissipated.

Across the way, Tie Yuanshan was slightly taken aback.

"It seems both of you were hiding your true abilities."

Tie Yuanshan said with a faint smile.

He was aware of Chen Yu’s strength already.

His main target for this venture was Chen Yu, so he wasn’t familiar with the Fire Qilin. But now that they had clashed, he found the Fire Qilin’s strength to be exceedingly formidable.

"Be careful, this man is about to get serious."

The Red Flame King sent a telepathic warning.

Although he had been boasting, he still felt somewhat apprehensive facing someone at the peak of the Late Guiyuan Realm.

Chime!

From his storage bag, Tie Yuanshan took out an object—a thick chain with a black Iron Claw at one end.

The chain, like a long serpent, coiled around Tie Yuanshan with the black Iron Claw facing Chen Yu, seemingly ready to attack at any moment.

Boom!

Suddenly, the chain Iron Claw attacked like black lightning, instantly arriving.

The Iron Claw opened and grabbed at Chen Yu’s head.

Chen Yu raised his sword in defense while also activating the Demon Scale Armor.

Clang!

The Giant Ruler Sword collided with the Iron Claw momentarily, as they touched, the claws unleashed a surge of black electricity that flowed into the Giant Ruler Sword, shocking Chen Yu’s arm to numbness.

At the same time, the Iron Claw circumvented the Giant Ruler Sword, reappearing behind Chen Yu.

Bang!

The Iron Claw stabbed toward Chen Yu’s back, the five talons shimmering with black electric current, piercing through the Demon Scale Armor and into Chen Yu’s skin.

At that instant, Chen Yu’s body trembled.

"This is the ’Black Thunder Claw,’ a Spiritual Artifact made to order by the Iron Refining Tribe especially for me. Its characteristic is electric paralysis, and it also has a restraining effect against evil demonic forces."

Tie Yuanshan said lightly.

Electricity not only had a paralyzing effect but also some control over demonic energy.

Which is why he was so confident.

"It does somewhat restrain me."

Chen Yu admitted frankly. When his Giant Ruler Sword clashed with it, conduction happened, slowing his movements momentarily. Otherwise, the Iron Claw wouldn’t have touched him.

Right away, Chen Yu withdrew his Giant Ruler Sword, replacing it with the Nine Bone Demon Spirit Sword.

This sword possessed extreme demonic energy, forged from a vein of Demon Bone Stones beneath the Demon Bone Wilderness. Chen Yu didn’t believe the electric effects of the Black Thunder Claw could overpower the might of the Nine Bone Demon Spirit Sword.
