Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal-Chapter 394 - 380: Weakening

The actions of the two Shattered Void Demon Cultivators from the Yin Moon Sect were decisively resolute.

Upon arriving at the Southern Capital, without any hesitation, they summoned their strongest lifebound Daoist arts.

And clearly, these Dao techniques were amplified by Dao artifacts.

Especially considering that they were using their Shattered Void cultivation to deal with Alkaid, a Refining Void cultivator, it was one thing, but they even shamelessly used their numerical advantage, attacking together without any burden.

From this, one could see the determination of these two great Shattered Void Demon Cultivators to kill him.

But...

When Alkaid sensed that the assailants included two great Shattered Void Demon Cultivators and five great Refining Void Demon Cultivators, his vigilance had already escalated to the extreme.

Almost as soon as they stepped into the range of the Southern Region and neared the Territory Lord’s Mansion, he had fully activated the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation.

"Who gave you the audacity to step into the Southern Capital and attack me, the master of the Southern Region!?"

With a fierce wave of his hand, brilliant streaks of light ascended rapidly from the ground like a curtain of rain: "Those traitors from the Jing Family, huh!? Do you really think that with his help in restraining the opening of the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation, you can rest easy?"

The speed at which these streaks of light ascended was unprecedented.

In the past, the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation needed several breaths to go from preparation to full activation, but this time...

The activation was unbelievably fast.

Four years earlier, Alkaid had already contemplated annihilating the Demon Cultivators from the Yin Moon Sect who came for revenge in one fell swoop.

Thus, when reconstructing the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation, he had emulated the Cave Origin Technique taught to him by Penglai Dao Lord, allowing the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation to maintain a "pre-activated" state, ready to quickly manifest its formidable power when truly needed.

And upon realizing that the Demon Cultivators on the border of Mist State might be luring the snake out of its hole, he covertly placed the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation into a pre-activated state.

That’s why, when the Eight Desolations Demon Lord and the Darkness Demon Lord led their minions into the Territory Lord’s Mansion, the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation completed its full activation in half a breath, thoroughly trapping the seven great experts of the Yin Moon Sect within it.

"What is this!?"

"How did the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation activate so quickly!?"

"Have we been tricked!? Is this a fatal trap set by the Heavenly Dao Sect and the Jing Family together, intending to severely damage our Yin Moon Sect!?"

Exclamations of shock came from those Refining Void Demon Cultivators.

The renown of the Southern Capital Defensive Formation was known throughout the world, and under the supervision of a Refining Void, even a Shattered Void might be trapped and killed, not to mention the likes of them who were also Refining Void.

Now caught within the formation, the five great Refining Void cultivators were naturally panicked.

"Eight Desolates!"

The Darkness Demon Lord was both shocked and furious.

Wasn’t it said that the Jing Family had already been contacted, and everything arranged properly?

Is this how you arranged it?

"Don’t panic!"

The voice of Eight Desolations Demon Lord imbued with energy soothing the mind permeated the entire field: "Although there have been some unexpected developments, our side has two great Shattered Void and five great Refining Void, united in our efforts. Even if Alkaid has the assistance of the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation, what of it? With our power, we can completely resist the pressure of the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation, kill Alkaid, sweep away all his items and Dao artifacts, and leave calmly! Fortune favors the bold! To acquire an income worth billions in one go, how can we not take any risks!?"

Hearing his words, the Darkness Demon Lord and the five great Refining Void Demon Cultivators were somewhat pacified.

Indeed.

The Capital Dragon Slaying Formation was formidable, but with the power of their group of seven, even while bearing the force of the formation, they could still kill Alkaid, the Refining Void cultivator.

"Attack with all your might, quick battle and quick decision!"

The Darkness Demon Lord instantly made up his mind.

"Buzz buzz!"

At this moment, a wave of visible clear light undulated from above the formation, instantly blasting towards the seven Demon Cultivators who had reached the Territory Lord’s Mansion.

Under the sweeping, undulating clear light, the Demonic Qi on the seven Demon Cultivators was cleansed so swiftly that it dimmed rapidly.

The Demonic Qi of the two great Shattered Void Demon Lords was washed away by nearly twenty percent, while the Demonic Qi of the five great Refining Void Demon Cultivators was cleansed by more than half.

"This is the weakening power of the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation..."

A Refining Void Demon Cultivator who seemed to also be proficient in formations suddenly turned pale: "How can this be!? I’ve encountered the power of the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation before, and at most only thirty percent of my Demonic Qi was reduced, but now... half of my Demonic Qi is stripped away!? How is this possible!?"

The undulating, sweeping clear light was just the beginning.

After weakening the Demonic Qi of the seven Demon Cultivators, there were nine near-transparent green chains rapidly extending from the light formed by the Capital Dragon Slaying Formation, like giant pythons, swiftly binding towards those Shattered Void and Refining Void Demon Cultivators.

"Void Chains! If they lock us, the Void Force contained within will immensely hinder our movements, turning us into living targets. Quick, shatter them!"

A sharp cry came from the Eight Desolations Demon Lord.

He was a Shattered Void Demon Cultivator who had achieved his status through the Void Path.

His lifebound Daoist art was the Eight Desolates Purgatory.

This art was somewhat similar to the sealing power of the Heaven-Sealing Stele, but where the power of the stele primarily suppressed and sealed, this art would trap its target and then refine and kill them to death.

Just like now, he originally targeted Alkaid with his Eight Desolates Purgatory, but he swiftly redirected it, wrapping around two of the green chains and directly sealing them into the Purgatory Space.

As the bracelet on his hand constantly swirled with the force of the Void, impacting the two green chains, they appeared to be close to breaking.

On the other side, the Darkness Demon Lord who cultivated the Darkness Dao wasn’t able to trap the green chains like the Eight Desolates Demon Lord.

But the Darkness Dao he mastered directly shielded the green chains, even from the perception of the Heavenly Capital Dragon Slaying Formation, allowing him to slip from the chains’ grasp.

Even though he was trapped within the formation, surrounded by the might of the Heavenly Capital Dragon Slaying Formation, it still could not re-lock onto him.

The two Shattered Void Demon Cultivators showcased their divine skills, resisting the power of the Heavenly Capital Dragon Slaying Formation, but the five Void Refinement Demon Cultivators were not so lucky.

Already having their Demonic Qi reduced by half, their strength had plummeted. Despite facing only a single chain each, three were bound instantaneously.

The moment their forms were bound, the perception between them and the Great Void Path seemed to be completely peeled away. Their sensitivity to the Void and adaptability to space plummeted to unprecedented lows.

It was as if creatures innately gifted with the talent of traversing the Void suddenly lost this ability, going from moving through the Void like fish in water to struggling to take a single step.

Just as their movements became sluggish and flaws were exposed, Alkaid appeared beside one of the Void Refinement Demon Cultivators, and the Sword of the Void instantly sliced through, simultaneously unleashing four Swords of the Void.

Under the cut of these four Swords of the Void, the Void Refinement had no time to dodge, and his Demon Body was torn into several pieces.

"Demon Lord, save me!"

The shout came from the Void Refinement Demon Cultivator.

"Stay calm..."

The Eight Desolations Demon Lord shouted lowly, targeting Alkaid and the space where the Void Refinement Demon Cultivator was, casting a Dao Technique—Heaven and Earth Reversal!

In an instant, the space where Alkaid and the Void Refinement Demon Cultivator were swapped, teleporting Alkaid directly in front of the Demon Lord.

"Ten Directions Chaos Kill!"

While completing the swap of Alkaid’s space, the Shattered Void unleashed the Void Force, targeting Alkaid, now within arm’s reach, and the space he occupied was instantly torn into ten parts.

Everything inside, matter and energy alike, was thrown into disarray and sliced apart.

The release of these two Dao Techniques was as fast as lightning, fully showcasing the power of a Shattered Void expert.

Even the Void Refinement Demon Cultivator, whose Demon Body was being ripped apart, could not help but feel an uncontrollable surge of surprise amidst his emotional turmoil.

But before he had time to reconstitute his Demon Body or determine if Alkaid had been torn apart by the Eight Desolations Demon Lord’s Ten Directions Chaos Kill, a wave of Great Annihilation Sword Qi fiercely bombarded his fragmented Demon Body.

The one who struck...

"Alkaid?!"

The Eight Desolations Demon Lord and Darkness Demon Lord both displayed looks of astonishment.

Especially the Eight Desolations Demon Lord, his gaze shifted uncontrollably to the space that had been torn apart by the Ten Directions Chaos Kill, his eyes filled with disbelief.

How did he escape?

He had just transferred Alkaid’s space over.

How did he suddenly appear beside that Void Refinement again?

"It’s his Lifebound Daoist Art, Void Blink! He used Void Blink to escape the space of the Ten Directions Chaos Kill! Then he unleashed the Great Annihilation Sword Qi!"

The Darkness Demon Lord’s Divine Sense trembled, "Not only does he possess a Dao Artifact in harmony with this Dao Technique, but he has also cultivated this art to the Great Achievement Realm!"

The Great Achievement Realm?!

Refinement Void Realm, cultivating Void Blink to the Great Achievement?!

And he has a Dao Artifact to match?!

At that moment, the Eight Desolations Demon Lord cursed inwardly.

Such a level of Void Blink, if Alkaid really wanted to leave, who could catch him?

Even him, adept in spatial sealing and imprisonment, could not guarantee it.

Let alone the Darkness Demon Lord, who was neither of the Void Path nor specialized in sealing...

Even if two or three people joined forces, they could only eat dust behind him.

"We must kill him at all costs; otherwise, if he advances further and achieves Shattered Void, he will become a huge threat to our Yin Moon Sect!"

The Eight Desolations Demon Lord shouted.

In the moment their Divine Senses communicated, the Great Annihilation Sword Qi released by Alkaid tore through like a storm, wrecking the Void Refinement Demon Cultivator who had not managed to form his Demon Body in time. Under the power of the Great Path of Destruction, the Demon Body of the Void Refinement was annihilated instantly, with only a part being swept into a displayed Cave Heaven, directly rolled inside.

"Peak Master!?"

Another Void Refinement exclaimed in shock.

"No matter, he can’t refine a Void Refinement so quickly. As long as we can shatter his Cave Heaven, the Peak Master will be safe and sound."

As the Eight Desolations Demon Lord spoke, he once again gathered a Dao Technique to seal the Void, "I’ll trap him! You finish him off with a Fatal Kill!"

As their Divine Senses passed messages, a Dao Artifact on his wrist rippled with spatial ripples, and above his head appeared a Treasure Mirror. Its light shone down, causing Alkaid’s form to momentarily stiffen.

Seizing this opportunity, he sent another Eight Desolates Purgatory sweeping towards Alkaid’s body.

"Sect Leader, be careful!"

The cry came from deep within the formation.

The next second, a Blade of the Void tore through, its sharpness cutting open the "light" of the Treasure Mirror without failing.

Following that, to the somewhat disbelieving gazes of the Eight Desolations Demon Lord and Darkness Demon Lord, another Blade of the Void, as if with no interval between, fiercely struck upon the Void Force of the Eight Desolates Purgatory, once again shattering the technique.

By the time the Darkness Demon Lord’s prepared Dao Technique, Darkness Canopy, rolled over, Alkaid’s figure flashed, and he directly escaped from the joint strike of the two Shattered Voids.

Facing the siege of two Shattered Voids, he remained calm and composed.
