Chapter 638 The Holy Demon King
"People of the demon race should not stay in this place."
Lin Ru's gaze turned cold, and the next moment he slammed his fist down hard on the little demon.
Just as Lin Ru's hand, imbued with flames, was about to strike the demon, the space around him began to slowly solidify.
"who!"
This power was extremely strong, causing Ye Ru and the other man's expressions to change. The Wuxiang Daoist that Lin Ru was holding was pulled away by a suction force and finally soared into the sky.
Upon seeing this, the two retreated rapidly, then looked coldly in the direction where Wuxiang Sanren was.
There, space slowly began to distort, and a surge of demonic energy emerged from the distorted space.
At the same time, a detached voice resounded throughout the land:
"Lin Ru, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to have advanced to the level of a high-level half-saint."
"Who are you? The Holy Demon King?"
Upon hearing the sound emanating from within the space, Lin Ru's pupils constricted sharply, and his expression became extremely grave.
"The Holy Demon King?"
Ye Ru frowned. Among the demon race, they all use the character "demon" as their title, while among the demon kings, they are called demon kings.
This Holy Demon King must know Lin Ru, otherwise he would never have reacted this way.
Space gradually distorted, and black mist continued to spread, bringing an extremely oppressive feeling to this world.
Immediately afterwards, the black mist gradually condensed, and finally, under the horrified gazes of the crowd, it formed a young man with an eerie appearance.
"Demon King, save me!"
Seeing that he was out of danger, Wuxiang Sanren quickly said.
"Useless trash! The demon race has raised you for so many years, and you can't even handle this little thing. What use are you to us!"
"Today I will kill you in place of the demon race!"
The Holy Demon King snorted coldly, and before Wuxiang Sanren could react, he clenched his hand, causing the latter's entire body to explode into black energy, which then merged with the demonic energy around him.
Seeing this, Ye Ru was also shocked. Although Wuxiang Sanren had no physical body, his mind was still very strong. However, he hadn't even lasted a single move against the opponent. It seemed that the opponent was very strong.
Watching the Holy Demon King personally kill his subordinate, Ye Ru's lips curled into a mocking smile, and then he said coldly.
"It seems that both the demon race and the monster race are utterly depraved."
"Hehe, we demons don't need such incompetent people, and I believe the monster race doesn't need them either."
The Holy Demon King showed no reaction upon hearing this, and continued:
"I didn't expect that the human race would produce such a talented scholar. Your name is Ye Ru, right? That name is quite well-known in our demon race. The demon race used many people to kill you, but none of them succeeded. But now, no one is coming to save you."
Upon hearing the words of the Holy Demon King, Ye Ru sneered, and his talent surged forth once more.
Although the previous battle had exhausted half of Ye Ru's talent, he now had no choice but to use his full strength.
The opponent's strength should not be underestimated.
"Holy Demon King, have you forgotten that I was here?"
Lin Ru, holding the flaming sword, said with a smile.
"Of course I remember, but you are no match for me now."
Seeing that Ye Ru and the other two were on high alert, the Holy Demon King said calmly.
"How dare you! Do you really think this is your demon realm? This is Dao Sheng Mountain!"
Lin Ru, along with the other scholars and half-saints from Dao Sheng Mountain, rushed to Ye Ru's side, while looking at the Holy Demon King with solemn expressions.
“I know this is Dao Sheng Mountain, and that old guy Qingxu is here too, but I’ve set up a spatial barrier here, so they won’t be able to find it for a while.”
The Holy Demon King clenched his fist, and the space in this area rippled, as if something had solidified.
"Damn it, he actually sealed off the space! This guy's power is now even stronger than mine!"
Lin Ru took a deep breath, his face immediately turning grim. Then, he slashed his sword at a certain point in space.
boom!
The air rippled instantly, and the flame vanished into nothingness.
Seeing that the attack had failed, Lin Ru's expression grew increasingly serious. The opponent's strength was probably only something that the three guardians of Zhong Sheng Mountain could defeat.
"Lin Ru, the Half-Saint, fellow Half-Saints and Grand Scholars, please hold him off for a moment while I summon the Sacred Ancient Tree."
Ye Ru spoke in a deep voice to the other half-saints.
He used the Sacred Ancient Tree easily before, but after such a great battle, it would probably take a lot of effort to use it again.
"Hmm. It's still possible to stop them with a single wave."
Lin Ru and the others nodded.
"be careful!"
After Ye Ru finished speaking, his entire body began to be covered with dragon scales, and finally he forcibly began to summon them.
He knew that only by breaking this barrier could the others from Dao Sheng Mountain come to help; otherwise, they would only face certain death.
The Sacred Ancient Tree suppresses the opponent's demonic energy. Only by using the power of the Sacred Ancient Tree to defeat it can one have a slight chance of escaping!
"The Sacred Ancient Tree? No wonder the demon race has suffered repeated setbacks; there's a reason for it. They underestimated their enemy."
Seeing this, the Holy Demon King snorted coldly, and then, with a light stomp of his foot, he blasted towards Ye Ru.
"Hmph, if you want to catch someone, you'll have to get past me first!"
At the same time, Lin Ru's expression turned solemn. He stomped his foot and unleashed a sword strike at the Holy Demon King.
Flames swept out and blasted towards the Holy Demon King.
"Hmph, stubborn fool! In the past, I might have been a little afraid of you, but now, you are nothing more than my defeated opponent."
The Holy Demon King clenched his fists, and a surge of demonic energy instantly enveloped him, before clashing violently with the longsword.
boom!
After the flames formed from the elements collided with the fist, a powerful force suddenly swept outwards, causing Lin Ru to stagger back hundreds of steps. He then looked at the Holy Demon King with a solemn expression.
"The Song of the Great Wind!"
"Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River!"
Seeing that Lin Ru couldn't even withstand a single blow from his opponent, the other semi-saint scholars exchanged glances, each seeing a hint of shock in the other's eyes. Then, they took a step forward and unleashed their strongest talents.
"Get lost, you showing off your literary talent!"
The Holy Demon King's face immediately turned cold, his body trembled, and his demonic energy instantly transformed into several figures, which rushed towards the other scholars.
boom!
Before they could fully unleash their talents, they were directly shattered by the Holy Demon King. The backlash from their talents caused everyone's faces to turn pale, and they coughed up a mouthful of blood before being thrown backward.
The other scholars, witnessing this turn of events, gasped in shock, their gazes towards the Holy Demon King filled with deep terror.
They knew that this time, they probably couldn't escape.
"Flame Slash!"
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lin Ru struck again with his sword, the flames transforming into a fire dragon that rushed towards the Holy Demon King, as if to devour him.
"If that old fellow Qingxu were to come in person, he might be of some use to me, but you guys shouldn't be trying to shake a tree like mayflies."
The Holy Demon King seemed to have lost patience. He clenched his fist, and a demonic wall appeared, blocking the flames.
“I can transform your Sacred Ancient Tree into a Demon Tree for my Demon Clan’s use, so I will take it.”
Having defeated everyone with overwhelming power, the Holy Demon King wore a somewhat indifferent expression. With a swift movement of his hand, the surrounding demonic energy condensed into a large black hand, which then hurtled towards Ye Ru amidst the despairing gazes of the crowd.
The giant black hand slammed down, bringing with it a foul-smelling gust of wind. Ye Ru's pupils dilated rapidly, and the others had no time to come to his aid. At that moment, everyone's hearts sank, and a pale and powerless expression appeared on their faces!
The giant hand was reflected in Ye Ru's pupils, and his eyes gradually turned red, but the Sacred Ancient Tree only had a rudimentary form.
"If you want to take me away, you'll have to pay a price!"
At that moment, a hint of madness flashed across the latter's eyes.
However, just as the black hand reached out to grab Ye Ru, a sudden ripple appeared in the space in front of him.
Immediately afterwards, a crack appeared to everyone's astonishment, and an old man with an air of otherworldly wisdom slowly walked out from it.
At the same time, a calm voice slowly echoed throughout this world.
"My sacred mountain is a place of quiet cultivation, and it cannot tolerate your demon and monster races acting so presumptuously here. Holy Demon King, you should return to your demon realm."
