Chapter 1375 Physical Breakthrough

"This is... the Azure Demon Lord?"

Upon hearing the name, the two fell silent almost simultaneously, their pace quickening involuntarily.

"Damn it, how did it get here?!"

Junior Brother Xu sounded much more anxious, as if he wished he had eight legs and could disappear in a flash.

The Azure Demon Lord is a general under the Mountain-Shaking Demon King. His true form is an adult Moon-Devouring Wolf Demon, whose physical body is comparable to the high moon in the sky. He can also use his innate divine power to draw on the power of the full moon to enhance himself. His strength is so great that he can even fight against the Demon King.

Although they were both strong, they could escape from each other's clutches if they fought desperately.

Don't forget, behind that Azure Demon Lord, there are nearly a hundred demon cultivators. With them around, even if the two of them risk burning their primordial spirits, they will not be able to escape; they will only face certain death.

"I don't know, maybe they were attracted by the commotion here."

Zhuang Heng shook his head and looked up at the blood-red vortex in the distance: "Just now, there was a full purple moon shining brightly in the sky above this place. Perhaps that Azure Demon Lord was attracted by this full moon..."

Before he could finish speaking, his expression grew increasingly grim.

The Azure Demon Lord behind them posed a great threat, but the demonic sword cultivator in front who was devouring blood and qi was equally threatening. Either of them was a powerful being capable of taking their lives.

Damn it, what have these two mere cultivators done to deserve being attacked from both sides so tacitly? This treatment is just too outrageous!

The two fled to the place where they had previously hidden themselves. Now, with wolf demons chasing them from behind and tigers blocking their way from the front, there was no way they could escape. If they went any further, they would definitely be discovered by the sword cultivator.

Faced with a life-or-death crisis, Zhuang Heng dared not hesitate, gritting his teeth and letting out a low shout:

"Let's risk it all, hide underground, and wait for them to finish fighting before we find a chance to escape."

As soon as he finished speaking, the color of the small flag in his hand changed, quickly turning into a thick yellow, and a yellow light shone on it, enveloping the two of them and causing them to sink rapidly into the earth.

Having observed the battle before, Zhuang Heng was already quite experienced, and he sank for over a hundred miles before stopping.

There was no other way. Although it would be more strenuous to go deeper, the swordsman's moves were simply too powerful, capable of destroying the heavens and the earth at any moment. If he hid too shallowly, he was afraid that he would be blown to death by the aftershocks.

Although the current situation is dangerous, it is also a tremendous opportunity if they stay hidden long enough.

The Azure Demon Lord's strength is actually slightly inferior to that sword cultivator's, but his side has a large number of demons. If they really fight and end up in a lose-lose situation, the two of them might really be able to become the opportunists again.

……

Before the demon cloud arrived at the valley, it stopped thousands of miles away and looked at the blood-red vortex from afar.

The Azure Demon Lord sat atop the strange beast, his gaze piercing through the thick blood mist to fall upon the sword cultivator within, remaining silent.

Just then, a wolf demon stepped forward from behind and said, "Demon Lord, that human seems to be using the power of blood and qi to break through his cultivation level. Should we take this opportunity to capture him?"

The Azure Demon Lord didn't even turn his head, but just stared quietly ahead, saying in a seemingly irrelevant way, "There is the aura of that old lizard in this blood and qi."

Upon hearing this, the wolf demon's pupils contracted, and its fur twitched uncomfortably.

The old lizard was stronger than it and was skilled in sneak attacks and assassinations, making it extremely difficult to deal with. If even the old lizard died at the hands of that swordsman, then even if it went, it would only face certain death.

After hesitating for a moment, it slowly spoke: "Then..."

"Not urgent."

The Azure Demon Lord took a deep breath, squinting as he savored the scent in the air:

"Those who came this time are all promising talents. Let him focus on breaking through. Only by defeating him in his strongest state will he be willing to offer up the technique of summoning the full moon."

The technique of summoning the full moon has always been exclusive to the Moon-Devouring Wolf Demons. Now that this human has learned such a spell, it naturally wants to seize it. If it can comprehend it, it will surely greatly increase its strength.

However, since this sword cultivator was able to kill the lizard, his strength must not be low, and it should deal with him with all its might.

After all, he is the Wolf Lord, not an arrogant fool, so he naturally has to use all the power under his command.

"Go." The Azure Demon Lord raised his hand. "Set up the Immortal-Slaying Array bestowed by the Demon King and surround this valley."

"Yes."

The wolf demon accepted the order and left. As he relayed the command, more than a hundred powerful demons behind him quickly set off, each holding a formation plate and occupying a position in the valley, activating the formation plate with their own demonic power.

In an instant, more than a hundred beams of light of various colors shot into the sky, converged at a single point in the high sky, and then transformed into a barrier of light that fell down, enveloping the entire valley.

This formation is guarded by over a hundred powerful demons, completely surrounding the valley from all sides. The demonic energy is as vast as the sea, possessing the power to suppress demons and destroy immortals.

Having done all this, the Azure Demon Lord completely let go of his last bit of reservations and couldn't help but grin.

Just then, it saw the figure trapped in the formation slowly open its eyes. Its gaze, sharp as a sword, swept across the surroundings, met its eyes, and then closed them again.

Upon seeing this, the Azure Demon Lord frowned.

What does this person mean? Not only is he not afraid of it, but he seems indifferent to it?

What, isn't he afraid of dying?

Just then, the blood energy vortex above the valley suddenly trembled. The blood energy that had been slowly gathering suddenly accelerated as if it had gone mad, almost condensing into a pillar of light, and rushed into the sword cultivator's body.

In an instant, all the blood and energy in the world vanished.

Immediately afterwards, a violent and destructive blood aura suddenly erupted in the valley. A blood sea tide, as tangible as a physical ocean, burst forth before our eyes, surging like a tidal wave, piercing through the great formation, sweeping across the demon horde, and surging in all directions.

That was a boundless and overwhelming power of blood and qi, a physical strength that exceeded the limitations of the rules of this place.

That is the aura of a Nascent Soul Great Perfection cultivator, which is absolutely not allowed to exist here!
