Chapter 521. True Face Revealed, Shock, Radiance of Sword Light
When the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon's form was fully revealed, Lu Yuan froze.
Jiang Ningxian and the others below froze as well.
Everyone's eyes were filled with disbelief.
Doubt was written on Jiang Haokong's face was full of doubt; he thought his eyes were playing tricks on him.
However, eventually, he did confirm that it was indeed the true body of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon. There was no doubt about it.
It was just too shocking.
Although they were only standing on the planet and gazing into space, they were all existences at the Immortal Realm, so they could naturally see everything clearly.
After coming back to his senses, Jiang Haokong turned toward Jiang Ningxian and asked, "Sister, tell me, that is real, right?"
"It should be, I think?" Jiang Ningxian replied, her voice laced with apparent hesitation.
The appearance of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon had completely exceeded their expectations.
It was a man.
Moreover, he was an extremely normal human man.
Apart from the aura he emitted being different from that of humans, everything else was almost identical.
If one ignored that, people would think the one standing before them was a human.
They would never connect him to the so-called Extracosmic Heavenly Demons.
How could this not shock them?
An existence regarded by the sages as a great enemy, one that even emitted such a strange and indescribable aura, was actually a human?
No wonder everyone was so shocked and found it unbelievable.
Who could have imagined that the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons would look just like them?
Lu Yuan was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly came back to himself.
"Surprised?" The Extracosmic Heavenly Demon seemed to have seen through everyone's thoughts. A smile appeared on his face, and he continued, "You have completely enraged me. Today, it's your death or mine!"
When the demon spoke, he was no longer as arrogant as before, but his words were still filled with killing intent.
He also knew that Lu Yuan would be extremely difficult to deal with.
However, fleeing was not his style. Therefore, the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon had already made up his mind.
Either he would kill Lu Yuan, or he would drag him down with him even if he had to die.
The Extracosmic Heavenly Demon stepped forward, and black light surged from his entire form.
In an instant, he appeared before Lu Yuan and threw a punch with lightning speed.
Lu Yuan had long been prepared and also chose to attack. As before, both sides threw out punches after punches, again and again.
It was a clash of physical bodies, stripped of all excess movement, every blow striking flesh.
Boom, boom, boom.
Space shook without cease, seemingly unable to withstand such pressure.
Because he no longer needed to maintain the black mist, the pressure the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon emitted was even stronger than before.
Every punch made Lu Yuan frown. This was indeed the strongest existence in the same realm that he had encountered so far.
He could sense that the opponent before him had not yet reached the Celestial Seat Immortal level. Otherwise, there was no way he could have gained the upper hand earlier.
This also made Lu Yuan have a rough gauge of the strength of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons.
However, he did not care. This allowed him to fight to his heart's content.
Without thinking too much, he circulated the peerlessly powerful aura within his body. Dense golden blood qi radiated around him as he threw a punch.
Eternal light gathered and surged out continuously, blazing so intensely that it completely illuminated the dark, desolate universe.
The Extracosmic Heavenly Demon did not fear the light. Darkness spread from his fist, along with that special power, attempting to dissolve this strike.
But the current Lu Yuan had already brought out his strongest methods. This punch seemed capable of shattering the surrounding stars.
Finally, the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon could no longer endure it and retreated.
This time, he had truly fallen into a disadvantage.
Now, the two sides were competing in reserves.
Clearly, through all of Lu Yuan's various plans in the old era, what he had accumulated had reached a heaven-defying level.
And in this great battle, it once again played a decisive role.
Pfft.
Lu Yuan blasted out another punch.
The Extracosmic Heavenly Demon finally could not hold on and spat blood from his mouth.
However, that blood was black, and it carried a certain power capable of corroding everything, causing space itself to twist.
However, Lu Yuan's golden blood qi surged.
It ground away the black blood.
Then he threw another punch. The Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token in his mind resonated, and threads of purple qi wrapped around his fleshly body.
An even greater power surged forth. As the strike landed, it pierced through half of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon's body.
Although he recovered very quickly and reconstructed his flesh, his aura grew even weaker.
"Good. Very good. You are strong, beyond my expectations. Since that is the case, you're coming to hell with me!"
The Extracosmic Heavenly Demon seemed to have expected this but he did not panic. Instead, he grew even more excited. It seemed he felt the opponent before him was worth paying this price for.
Then, he opened his mouth and inhaled.
Immediately, the life essence sacrificed below once again merged into his body.
The aura he emitted grew stronger than before.
Power surged through him like a river.
Black mist actually appeared around the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon once again, and his strength seemed to be climbing steadily.
Clearly, he believed that relying only on his own power was no longer enough to kill Lu Yuan. Thus, he wanted to borrow external power and drag Lu Yuan down with him.
"Sorry, but I won't give you that chance."
Looking at the life essence being absorbed, Lu Yuan no longer planned to hold back.
He knew very well that if this life essence remained, this planet could still give birth to new life in the future. But if it was completely absorbed, everything would be over. It was equivalent to killing off the entire planet's vitality.
In the next moment, the Great Luo Sword Embryo appeared in his hand.
Sharp sword intent surged out.
In an instant, the stars trembled.
Under that powerful sword intent, the life essence flowed backward. This was naturally Lu Yuan's method that interrupted the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon's absorption.
Then he faced the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon before him and slashed.
A ray of brilliant and dazzling light emerged, making the entire universe seem to freeze.
Terrifying sword intent seemed to pierce through eternity.
The Extracosmic Heavenly Demon froze.
In the next instant, his body was pierced through.
However, he did not die. He merely stood where he was.
His eyes were still filled with disbelief as he slowly said, "You actually still held a trump card. As expected, was I never your match from the very beginning?"
He seemed fine and could even speak, but if one sensed carefully, one would discover that this Extracosmic Heavenly Demon's origin had been severed and his vitality had been cut off.
An ordinary person would have died long ago.
Lu Yuan knew that this was precisely what made the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons powerful.
He was also shocked. Even after being struck by such powerful sword intent, the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon had not died.
Moreover, if the demon were given time, he might even recover?
With this thought, Lu Yuan took another step forward and said, "I'll send you on your way."
