I Have A Dual World Seal

"Boom!"

A wave of demonic might pressed down over everyone present.

The next moment, a Demon, fifteen feet tall, with eagle-like legs and an upper body covered in mane, appeared in midair, standing arrogantly above.

"Little worm, remember this Venerable’s name! Dark Sun Crossing Void True Emperor Demon Venerable!"

That Demon Venerable gave Tie Yi a ferocious grin, raised his hand, and grabbed toward Tie Yi.

Then Tie Yi felt the surroundings seemingly sealed out of thin air and pressing in toward him, as if intending to squeeze him into minced meat.

"Open!"

Tie Yi shouted harshly, brilliant golden light flashed from within his body, his figure shook, and a Vajra phantom formed over his skin, thirty feet tall, bearing the Vajra’s Furious Gaze; Buddha Power surged wildly, breaking through Dark Sun Demon Venerable’s grasp.

Then his figure flashed and vanished, charging straight at Dark Sun Celestial Venerable; the Vajra Pestle swung in a full arc and smashed down toward the opponent’s head.

This momentum made the two military experts secretly click their tongues; compared to them, Tie Yi instead looked more like a top-tier battle general charging the front lines.

"Bang!"

Dark Sun Demon Venerable raised an arm horizontally to block; the Vajra Pestle smashed onto his forearm, yet after a thunderous boom, Dark Sun Demon Venerable did not move in the slightest.

Tie Yi’s pupils shrank; he abruptly retreated, only to see a demonic claw growing ever closer to him.

"Swish swish swish!"

Sheets of silver star curtain appeared out of nowhere, cutting between Dark Sun Demon Venerable and Tie Yi; the star curtains looked thin and fragile, as though they would tear at a poke, yet they blocked Dark Sun Celestial Venerable’s assault. Though his demonic claw pierced through nineteen star curtains in a row, it was stopped by the twentieth, saving Tie Yi.

Li Muran appeared on Dark Sun Demon Venerable’s left, flicked the duster in his hand, and looked at him calmly.

"Li Muran of the Observatory greets Demon Venerable. Demon Venerable, why not roam at ease in the Upper Realm? Why bother exhausting your efforts to court danger in the Lower Realm and bring suffering upon yourself?"

Dark Sun Demon Venerable disdained to answer; he only reached down with a grasp, and endless Demonic Qi was drawn up from the well by him, shooting skyward like a fountain, merging into the Demon Cloud above, then rippling out in shockwaves.

Seeing that following the Earth Vein’s course was no longer viable, he was preparing to forcibly break through the Array locking down the Court’s forces, to scatter the Demon Cloud, refine heaven and earth with demonic rain, and evolve a Demon Realm.

"Demon, taste my pestle!"

Tie Yi shot Li Muran a look; his whole body blazed with golden light, the Vajra Dharma Aspect once again shrouded him, and a trace of Blood Qi appeared on the Demon-Subduing Pestle.

Tie Yi fused all his Buddha Power and Blood Qi; his aura soared to the heavens, countless runes flickered on the Demon-Subduing Pestle—these were Demon-Subduing True Words Seals of the Buddhist Sect.

The next moment, the Vajra Pestle expanded threefold in midair, just fitting into the Vajra Dharma Aspect’s hand; with full preparations made, Tie Yi closed in again!

On the other side, Li Muran waved his duster; streams of starlight mixed with Spiritual Qi descended, transforming into Star Chains—one end leading into the void, the other locking toward Dark Sun Demon Venerable.

Facing Tie Yi’s strike, Dark Sun Demon Venerable finally moved.

After all, Tie Yi was also a top-tier expert of this era; that first overwhelming move of his had been meant to shake Tie Yi’s Heart Spirit, then seize the chance to gravely wound him.

Though the latter goal was not achieved, the former still had some effect; thus at this moment Tie Yi erupted with one hundred and twenty percent of his power—though ferocious, it could not last long and was prone to openings.

However...

As Dark Sun Demon Venerable retreated, he cast a subtle glance at Li Muran.

This Daoist was not easy to deal with; he completely patched over Tie Yi’s flaws, leaving Dark Sun Demon Venerable no opening to exploit.

Their combined strength could indeed hold Dark Sun Demon Venerable off for a time.

"Not bad! Truly worthy of being the top experts of this world—quite good indeed."

Dark Sun Demon Venerable was confident he could defeat the two within a day, but clearly, within a day, others would certainly arrive to reinforce them.

The demonic calamity at Lianzhou Prefecture was not being masked by any expert; see how when Demonic Qi surged for but an instant, the nearest Cyan Bamboo Temple and Wushan Sect had top experts rushing over immediately.

Though these two were not top-tier Sects, they were still renowned, and these two Ancestors were clearly existences capable of joining the battle.

From this one could see how many experts there truly were in the Great Jing Twenty-Seven Dao and One Hundred and Eighty-Three States!

Dark Sun Demon Venerable let out a howl; his figure suddenly retreated, dodging Tie Yi’s strike, then with Demonic Qi surging, he burst free of the Star Chains. He did not tangle with Li Muran and Tie Yi, instead only driving Magic to draw Demonic Qi out of the Demon Cave and send it into the Demon Cloud, then hammer the Array.

This, however, struck right at Li Muran and Tie Yi’s weak spot!

They had to know that the two of them could only pin Dark Sun Demon Venerable down; they absolutely could not suppress him.

So when Dark Sun Demon Venerable cast aside the face of an Upper Realm Demon Venerable and refused to tangle with them, instead dodging around them while driving Magic to attack, their attempt at containment would yield half the result for twice the effort.

"Shameless!"

"Damn it!"

Yet even so, the two dared not relax in the slightest; otherwise, if Dark Sun Demon Venerable freed his hands, then the many experts of the Observatory and Anomaly Suppression Bureau on site, as well as the reinforcing military, Star Officials, and other Sect experts, would all be in danger.

Thus, Li Muran and Tie Yi could only mutually restrain Dark Sun Demon Venerable, yet they could not halt the Demon Cloud gathering ever thicker in the sky.

"What are we to do?"

"We can only do our utmost; wear down as much as we can, protect Lianzhou Prefecture, and let other places evacuate the common folk as quickly as possible."

"Everyone, exhaust the Demon Cloud with all your strength—do not let it detonate!"

Tie Yi shouted loudly; the people of the Anomaly Suppression Bureau and Observatory answered in unison, and those experts who were already using Spells and Magical Treasures to grind away at the Demonic Qi increased their power, pinching seals and Casting with every heartbeat.

On the other side, while Tie Yi was exhaling and giving orders, Dark Sun Demon Venerable approached in a moment of distraction; a demonic claw reached toward the top of Tie Yi’s head, nearly cracking his skull open.

"Shameless Demon!"

"Kekekeke..."

Dark Sun Demon Venerable did not care in the least. "It’s only because this Venerable’s True Spirit has descended to the Lower Realm to play with you like children. If this Venerable were even a bit serious, you’d already be ash."

"Blowing hot air!"

Li Muran did not cultivate the flesh, so he maintained his distance from Dark Sun Demon Venerable, only Casting from afar, disrupting Dark Sun Demon Venerable’s link to the Demon Cave and hindering his drawing of Demonic Qi from the Demon Cave Secret Realm.

...

The two sides were locked in a stalemate.

A short while later, when Li Muran felt the eastern sky growing faintly bright, he saw Dark Sun Demon Venerable suddenly smile.

"Not good!"

"Kekekeke..."

"Boom!"

The Demon Cloud in the sky exploded with a thunderous roar!

As if endless Demon Cloud instantly blasted through all barriers on the Four Directions, enveloping the entire Lianzhou Prefecture, then surging outward in all directions!

"Retreat into the Array! Defend with all your strength!"

Li Muran and Tie Yi shouted harshly, then scattered Starlight Buddha Power, retreating while doing their utmost to shield their own people.

"Seven Demon Gods! Follow me!"

"Kekekeke!"

"Hahaha!"

"Kill kill kill!"

At the same time, from afar came one aged, one clear, and one domineering voice.

"Amitabha Buddha!"

"Infinite Celestial Venerable!"

"Stay where you are!"

"Kekekeke... you few little worms cannot keep me here. Go deal with this thousand-mile Demon Realm first, hahahahaha..."
