Chapter 835 - 829: Heavenly Emperor of Returning Ruins Ruthlessly Crushes the Demon Lord

In the Underworld, the Demon Lord was seizing the moment, launching a fierce attack on the Yin Celestial Son.

Raging demon flames surged, reducing large areas of the Underworld to ashes.

The Netherworld Yin Spirits fell one by one, unable to assist the Yin Celestial Son any longer.

The Demon Lord swung his demon spear, leaving blood-soaked holes all over the Yin Celestial Son’s body with his rampant assaults.

"Boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

In just an instant, the Demon Lord had left dozens of bloody holes on the Yin Celestial Son’s body.

A vast mist of blood sprayed out, and the Yin Celestial Son stood there, his figure faltering and swaying, nearly collapsing to the ground.

"Cough, cough!"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

He emitted harsh coughs, the old wounds on his chest left by the Chaos Star Beast almost spreading across his entire chest.

The Yin Celestial Son could not hold on any longer, his entire being completely drained, devoid of any remaining strength.

With just one more strike from the Demon Lord, he would have no place to be buried.

"Jie jie."

"Jie jie jie." The Demon Lord laughed wildly, taunting the Yin Celestial Son: "Yin Celestial Son, you can’t hold on any longer, you can’t hold on any longer!"

"I am going to kill you, finally, I am going to kill you!"

After he finished speaking, the Demon Lord’s demonic energy surged toward the demon spear.

The overflowing demonic energy almost made the spear explode.

At this moment, the energy within Yin Celestial Son was entirely exhausted, leaving him powerless to fight back.

"My life is over!" The Yin Celestial Son closed his eyes in despair.

"Demon Lord, do not be arrogant!"

"To kill him, have you asked me?"

Just then, a voice echoed through the Underworld.

The Yin Celestial Son was familiar with this voice because it was the voice of the Heavenly Emperor of Returning Ruins.

The Heavenly Emperor of Returning Ruins is here?

At this moment, the Demon Lord also sensed a powerful pressure rapidly approaching from afar — the unique presence of the Heavenly Emperor of Returning Ruins.

Feeling the pressure of the Heavenly Emperor, the Demon Lord couldn’t help but frown.

In his current state, although much better than the Yin Celestial Son’s,

he could not compare to the full power of the Heavenly Emperor of Returning Ruins.

If he doesn’t kill the Yin Celestial Son before the Heavenly Emperor arrives, his fate won’t be much better than the current Yin Celestial Son’s.

With this thought, the Demon Lord understood that he must eliminate the Yin Celestial Son before the Heavenly Emperor arrives.

The Demon Lord no longer gathered power but directly controlled the demon spear, thrusting it toward the Yin Celestial Son’s forehead.

The surging energy aimed straight for the Yin Celestial Son’s forehead.

If this demon spear pierced the Yin Celestial Son’s forehead, his head would burst open like a smashed watermelon.

"Boom," a pile of bloody brains would splash out.

As quick as lightning.

Just as the spear was about to pierce the Demon Lord’s forehead, a nine-layer Linglong Treasure Tower blocked the path in front of the Yin Celestial Son.

"Boom!"

With a loud crash, the spear and the tower were knocked flying.

In the next moment, the Heavenly Emperor of Returning Ruins arrived, standing in front of the Yin Celestial Son.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist, for your timely rescue!" The Yin Celestial Son bowed to the Heavenly Emperor, expressing his gratitude.

The Heavenly Emperor returned the gesture and calmly said, "Fellow Daoist, you have worked hard, leave this to me."

The Demon Lord was now at half his power, while the Heavenly Emperor was at full strength.

In this condition, the Demon Lord was no match for the Heavenly Emperor.

Seeing the Heavenly Emperor arrive, the Demon Lord was filled with hatred.

So close.

Just a little bit more!

If the Heavenly Emperor had been late by two or three seconds, he would have seen the corpse of the Yin Celestial Son.

"Fate! Destiny!"

"The heavens do not help the Demon Lord!" The Demon Lord thought to himself.

With the arrival of the Heavenly Emperor, the Demon Lord truly began to panic.

He had pursued the Yin Celestial Son relentlessly before.

And now, it was the Heavenly Emperor’s turn not to let him go.

How could he escape?

The Demon Lord knew that fighting was not an option.

Unless Buddha came to his aid.

But Buddha was unlikely to support him.

Buddha was preoccupied with that pitch-black door and would not rashly come to his aid.

At this moment, the Demon Lord started to regret.

He regretted not heeding Buddha’s advice to retreat. Now, although the Demon Lord still had a means of escape,

the price of using it would be too high.

This method was something the Demon Lord was unwilling to use unless absolutely necessary.

Although the Heavenly Emperor of Returning Ruins was Lin Yuan’s Good Corpse, his kindness was not like the Holy Mother’s.

His kindness was reserved for his own people.

As for his enemies, eliminating them was the greatest kindness.

The Heavenly Emperor of Returning Ruins was one to take action without much talk, directly summoning a Coiled Dragon Treasure Sword and striking at the Demon Lord.

"Zing!"

"Zing! Zing!"

The crisp sounds of the sword’s ringing filled the air, the sword moving like a dragon, continuously hacking at the Demon Lord.

The Coiled Dragon Treasure Sword was surrounded by fierce winds, forming a terrifying air current.

Judging by the momentum alone, the Demon Lord was completely outmatched by the Heavenly Emperor of Returning Ruins.

Facing the fierce attack of the Heavenly Emperor, cuts were slashed open on the Demon Lord’s black robes.

The wounds bled profusely, soaking through his black robes.

"Heavenly Emperor, do not push me too far!"

"At worst, I will fight you to the death!" The blood-soaked Demon Lord threatened the Heavenly Emperor.

At this moment, the Heavenly Emperor was impervious to persuasion or threats, ignoring the Demon Lord’s words.

He continued to summon the sword and strike.

The Heavenly Emperor thought, you accuse me of pushing you too far now, but weren’t you doing the same when you tried to kill the Yin Celestial Son?

Today, I must kill you and avenge the Yin Celestial Son.

Seeing that the Coiled Dragon Treasure Sword was struggling to kill the Demon Lord,

the Heavenly Emperor said nothing and summoned a treasure mirror.

The Heavenly Emperor’s approach was simple: he relied on treasures, allies, and loyalty.

This wasn’t an empty boast but the honest truth.

The treasures held by the Demon Lord, Buddha and Wa Huang were largely obtained from the Realm of Gui Xu.

They acquired many treasures from there, not to mention the Heavenly Emperor, the Lord of Gui Xu himself.

As for allies, the Heavenly Emperor had the Celestial Soldiers and Generals from the Returning Ruins Divine List, who never perished, their spirits enduring forever.

Loyalty, as demonstrated by the Heavenly Emperor’s actions today.

This treasure mirror was incredibly powerful, releasing a beam of white light with a single swing.

The white light, when it touched the Demon Lord, slowed him down.

As the white light continuously illuminated the Demon Lord, he became slower and slower.

The slower the Demon Lord grew, the easier it was for the Coiled Dragon Treasure Sword to hit him.

Eventually, the Demon Lord could no longer evade the strikes of the Coiled Dragon Treasure Sword.

The infallible Coiled Dragon Treasure Sword was like torturous execution, slicing the Demon Lord into pieces.

"Ah!" The Demon Lord let out a painful howl, realizing he had to use his final card.

Otherwise, he truly risked dying at the hands of the Heavenly Emperor today.

The Demon Lord’s body rapidly began to vibrate as if he were about to self-destruct and take the Heavenly Emperor down with him.
