75: Demons dance wildly and kill Shura

Holding the bronze battle axe, Lin Xuan felt a distinct difference.

Just a moment ago, he found the thing incredibly heavy, but now it felt perfectly suited to his hand, as if the axe was born to be wielded by him.

The ferocious aura within it, far from being hostile towards him, became as docile as a lamb, channeling a surge of savage dominance into his arm.

Outside, the demon race, still stunned after prostrating themselves, heard their newly acknowledged Demon Lord speak.

"Why are you all standing around? Watching a show?" Lin Xuan hoisted the battle axe onto his shoulder, casting a sidelong glance at the vast demon army outside.

He gestured with his chin towards the Blood Slaughter Legion, "Look, ready-made targets.

Let this Lord see if you can only kneel, or if you can actually fight."

These words were incredibly harsh, but also incredibly effective.

The old faces of the leading demon monarchs flushed, then they bared their fangs and let out monstrous roars.

"The Demon Lord has commanded! Kill all those Asura scum!"

"My lads! Let the Demon Lord see our capabilities!"

"For the Demon Lord! Charge!"

The solemn scene of worship instantly erupted!

Giant demons swung their spiked clubs, succubi created multiple illusions, bone demons summoned a sea of skeletons, and battle demons charged forward with guttural roars!

These demons fought without any formation, relying entirely on their ferocity, like a bursting dam, roaring as they slammed into the Blood Slaughter Legion's flank!

Now the fun truly began.

The Blood Slaughter Legion was originally charging with full force towards the Star Palace's grand array when they were unexpectedly kicked hard from the side by this chaotic yet fearless group of demons, causing their formation to instantly falter.

Malevolent energy and demonic energy intertwined, eroding each other, creating a lively battle.

Lin Xuan watched the chaotic scene of demons dancing and grinned.

This was exactly the effect he wanted!

His eyes hardened, locking onto the several Asura Commanders with the strongest auras deep within the Blood Slaughter Legion.

To catch the bandit, first catch the king!

"Liantian! Guard the home!" He low-roared, stomping the void beneath his feet.

His entire being transformed into a streak of light entwined with chaotic demonic energy, directly crashing into the heart of the battlefield!

The bronze battle axe in his hand hummed with excitement, the mottled bloodstains on its blade glowing with a terrifying red light!

An Asura Commander, at the early Immortal Monarch stage, was brandishing a bone blade, effortlessly cleaving several charging giant demons, when he suddenly felt his scalp tingle!

He looked up to see an axe light, imbued with destructive aura, already above his head!

"Roar!" He was filled with shock and rage, raising his bone blade with all his might to block, his body condensing into a shield of blood fiend energy!

Clang! A deafening clash of metal!

That bone blade, which clearly wasn't an ordinary item, was no different from a dry twig in front of the bronze battle axe, instantly shattered into pieces!

The axe light barely paused, continuing its downward trajectory!

Pfft!

The Asura Commander, along with the blood fiend shield he had condensed, was cleanly split in two from head to toe!

Foul-smelling blood and shattered organs splattered everywhere!

Instant kill!

Lin Xuan didn't even look at the result, his figure like a phantom, disappearing again, pouncing towards the next target!

He didn't engage in prolonged combat with these Asura Commanders.

He simply relied on the sharpness of the bronze battle axe and his terrifying power at the late-stage Heaven Immortal + Demon Lord origin, felling one with each axe swing!

Simple, brutal, efficient!

Wherever he passed, Immortal Monarch-level Asura Commanders fell like cut straw, completely unable to withstand a single blow!

That bronze battle axe was too ferocious, seemingly having a natural suppression over the Asura Clan's fiendish energy.

With one axe swing, any protective fiendish energy or bone armor defense was like paper!

The rapid fall of high-tier combat power caused the Blood Slaughter Legion's offensive to immediately stall!

The demon army seized the opportunity to launch a fierce assault, actually pushing back the Blood Slaughter Legion!

On the other side, the Star Palace disciples, seeing their Palace Master so fierce, were greatly invigorated!

Coupled with the demon race taking on most of the pressure, they found it much easier to cope.

Just then, from the direction of the Spirit Beast Garden, a clear and resonant dragon's roar echoed through the clouds!

A five-clawed golden dragon, radiating golden light and exceptionally majestic, soared into the sky!

Its body was a thousand zhang long!

Although still slightly immature compared to the legendary adult divine dragons, its majestic and sacred dragon's might was already overwhelming!

Auspicious clouds formed beneath its four dragon claws, its scales shimmered with dazzling divine light, and its enormous dragon eyes burned with furious golden flames!

It was Jin Bao!

After forcibly awakening its bloodline and then being stabilized by the Immortal Kun's energy, it had finally transformed into its true form as a five-clawed golden dragon!

"Awoo!" Jin Bao was clearly brimming with pent-up rage.

He unleashed a blast of scorching golden dragon flame breath at the dense swarm of insects below!

Whoosh—!

That dragon flame, supremely pure and masculine, carried a sacred power to purify evil, making it a natural bane for the insect race!

Wherever the dragon flame passed, large swaths of insect swarms were instantly incinerated into dust before they could even scream!

Even the troublesome Soul-Devouring Insects, when illuminated by the golden light, shrieked and dissipated!

Its massive dragon body circled in the sky above the battlefield.

A flick of its dragon tail could shatter a beetle the size of a small mountain, and a grab from its dragon claws could tear an Asura War General to shreds!

Although its combat techniques were still a bit raw, relying entirely on instinct, its terrifying power and rank suppression had already made it a major weapon on the battlefield!

"Good job, little Jin Bao!" A Zi clapped her small hands, cheering from the top of a palace building.

She wasn't idle herself.

Though her cultivation was only at the Nascent Soul stage, she pointed her small hand towards the densely packed Asura Clan!

Rumble!

Within a hundred-li radius, a dark, inky tribulation cloud, with lightning snakes dancing wildly, instantly enveloped the area!

Endless heavenly thunder poured down like a torrential rain!

Although it couldn't kill the tough-skinned Asura War Generals, it still left them scorched and battered, smoking all over, their movements distorted, and utterly annoyed!

It was like a swarm of flies buzzing around their heads—not much damage, but extremely insulting!

In a corner of the battlefield, a petite white figure flickered like a phantom among the Asura Clan.

It was Yu Lin!

Her speed was incredibly fast.

Each time she stopped, she would embrace an Asura and open her small mouth to bite down with a "chomp!"

The Asura bitten by her would instantly stiffen, their skin turning gray, their eyes losing their luster, and then they would suddenly turn and pounce on their nearby comrades!

Zombie assimilation!

One spread to ten, ten spread to a hundred!

Although high-level Asura Clan had high resistance and weren't so easily transformed, it still caused great chaos in that area, with their own people fighting each other!

You Ye's figure drifted erratically.

Wherever she passed, a grayish-white ghost domain illusion unfolded.

The Asura Clan who fell victim to it often saw their companions as relentless enemies, fighting each other madly and dying incredibly frustrating deaths.

Ye Chen, on the other hand, was like a precise killing machine.

Nirvana Sword Intent transformed into a continuous drizzle, covering a large area.

Wherever the sword energy passed, the Asura Clan fell in swathes like harvested wheat, silently annihilated.

Yun Qingyao held the central command, expanding her ice domain to its limit, freezing large sections of the most aggressive Asura vanguard, who were then torn apart by subsequent sword light or demonic sounds, efficient and cold.

Chu Xinghe controlled the mobile array fortress, like a giant winch.

Wherever it went, the Asura Clan and insect race there were crushed and disintegrated by the power of the array, with terrifying efficiency.

Kong Ming transformed into a hundred-zhang golden-bodied Arhat, chanting the True Words of the Great Sun Tathagata, his Buddha's Light shining everywhere, specifically delivering those Shadow Asura and Soul-Devouring Insects, purifying areas.

Linglong's demonic sounds were all-pervasive.

The Asura Clan who fell victim either became idiotic and giggling, or went berserk and attacked their own people, truly a chaos generator.

Su Yuan's Heavenly Evolution Array Disk furiously calculated, constantly sharing the enemies' weaknesses and energy flow nodes with all disciples, doubling their attack efficiency.

Qing Xuan's light of purification, like a warm tide, constantly swept across the battlefield, healing the wounded and dispelling fiendish energy.

Xue Li's love threads, like the most hidden traps, often bound powerful enemies at critical moments, creating opportunities for her teammates to deliver a killing blow.

The entire battlefield, due to Lin Xuan's outburst, the demon race's participation, and the full effort of the Star Palace disciples, had completely turned the originally one-sided disadvantage around!

They even began to push back!

Shouts of killing, explosions, dragon roars, demon howls, Buddhist chants, thunderous sounds—all mixed together, playing a bloody and violent symphony of war!

Lin Xuan, with one axe swing, sent the last stubbornly resisting Immortal Monarch-level Asura Commander flying, then leaned on his battle axe, breathing slightly.

Continuous high-intensity bursts, even he found a bit hard to bear.

He looked around, at the chaotic and fierce battlefield, at the disciples and demon race fighting desperately, at the endless Asura Clan and insect race in the distance, with no trace of relief in his eyes.

He knew this was, at most, a temporary stabilization of the situation.

Old Dog Xuan Gu and the Asura Clan's true trump cards had yet to be revealed.

But he didn't care.

He weighed the bronze battle axe in his hand, feeling the bloodthirsty craving emanating from it, and a demonic smile spread across his lips.

"Nice axe."

"Perfect for chopping firewood!"
