Chapter 1454: Flamedemons

Chapter 1454: Flamedemons Zhang Lie had struck a strong cultivator dead in just one blow!

None of the cultivators who had progressed deep into the rock forest could have been weak, but that was precisely why Zhang Lie's accomplishment was so extraordinary.

"Who would be able to stand against him?"

"All flamedemons, charge alongside me!"

Suddenly, one cultivator shouted at his fellows as he transformed into a huge bird in a flash of firelight and swooped onto the stage.

"When have the flamedemons ever suffered such humiliation?!"

"All who decry the flamedemons are enemies of our race!"

Many fierce, red-winged monsters rose into the air. It looked as though the flamedemons were a race of no small repute, if they were able to field so many competitors in the Cup.

A huge fight broke out. Quite a number of spectators rushed into the arena, wanting to take advantage of the flamedemons to deal with a strong opponent like Zhang Lie.

They were more than happy to get a significant threat out of the way.

Yang Ze retreated to one side. "Captain, why's everyone coming for you?"

In the arena, one cultivator's eyes shone in silver, imbued with temporal force. Any who were struck by the beams would have their actions slowed.

"Help me guard Sun Xiaowu and make sure no one disrupts his metamorphosis."

Zhang Lie's concerns, however, would prove to be unnecessary. Sun Xiaowu was indeed in the most critical stage of his transformation, but the evolution had been completed and the inheritance received. He had successfully taken ownership of the demonic seed in his forehead, and the seed that had once been a black dot now took on the form of a golden rune.

On careful inspection, it would be clear that this small rune was itself formed of countless small runes.

Golden runes surrounded Sun Xiaowu's body and resonated with the palace at the peak of the mountain. The golden runes surrounded him like an egg, protecting his body. No one would be able to hurt Sun Xiaowu now.

As Zhang Lie activated his monarch-grade limitless universe soulshard, he glowed with stellar radiance, like a burning star. Starlight flowed through his body in phantasmagorical colors. The silver beams of temporal light that flashed from the cultivator's eyes winked out.

The starlight's allure captivated all onlookers.

Zhang Lie's body transformed into a glaze of the dark cosmos, as though the Milky Way itself flowed through his body. His aura grew tremendously. One punch was all it took to destroy the cultivator who had attacked him.

One cultivator transformed into a bolt of lightning and shot over. All who were struck by the lightning would become charred hunks of flesh.

However, Zhang Lie caused the lightning to dissipate with just one punch imbued with starlight. The cultivator blanched and attempted to flee as another bolt of lightning, but Zhang Lie gave chase at incredible speed. He stomped him underfoot and crushed his body.

The red-winged flamedemons flocked over, bringing with them a titanic storm of flame.

The red flames burned heaven and earth alike; even the void distorted from the heat.

Zhang Lie unsheathed Guicang and slashed forward, parting the sea of flames.

One of the flamedemons spread his palms out. They glowed with light and manifested in the form of a golden lance wreathed with lightning and flame. He tossed it out.

Someone exclaimed, "This is one of the flamedemons' secret techniques, a lightningflame lance of incredible abyssal strength."

Zhang Lie activated his dragonwolf soulshard. His russet fur seemed to glimmer with stellar radiance, each hair a shining star, as though he were draped with the entirety of the Milky Way. His four limbs were armored with a dragon's scales, each a burning golden sun. The two soulshards' power combined.

A dragon's horns grew out of Zhang Lie's forehead, shining with stellar radiance, surrounded by galactic starlight. To others, he would seem to have the boundless energy of a new galaxy.

Zhang Lie swiped forward with his claws. Starlight flooded forward, splitting the sea of lightning in two.

Sparks flew as his claws struck the fearful cultivator and destroyed him entirely.

More red-winged monsters swooped forward, their wings sparking with fire and lightning.

"[The Boundless Blade: Yawning Wave]!"

A waterfall of genetic energy was imbued in Guicang. As Zhang Lie slashed forward with the sword, devastating sword energy was unleashed.

The flamedemons shot forward in a burst of fire and lightning, defending themselves against the titanic waves of genetic energy. A huge explosion rang out.

Lightning and flame fizzled across the arena. The initial wave of flamedemons had been killed, but even more charged forward.

Zhang Lie's pitch-black genetic energy, dotted with starlight, looked like the primordial matter that made up the universe. His eyes frosty, he charged at the cultivators arrayed around him.

Within moments, Guicang had sent a dozen cultivators flying. He thrust the blade into one cultivator's forehead in a fountain of blood.

Starlight exploded around him as the cultivator's body burst apart.

Zhang Lie was deep in a battle frenzy when another cultivator struck at him, his lance like a bolt of lightning.

It was another flamedemon. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NƟvelFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Zhang Lie blocked the lance with Guicang in an explosion of starlight. His sword energy manifested as a stellar river that sucked the flamedemon within, tearing him to shreds.

Another flamedemon appeared, wreathed in purple lightning and red flame.

"I'll kill you!" he thundered.

Zhang Lie was like a demon king who had indiscriminately slaughtered all opponents coming his way.

He raised a hand, slashed with his sword, and beheaded another cultivator in a shower of blood.

"Are all the young flamedemon talents going to lose right here and now...?

Some among the flamedemons were growing wary of this frightening cultivator who had easily dispatched any challenger. Who would have expected that he could be so overwhelmingly strong despite the fact that they were all from the same generation?
