Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation

This time, Xiao Chen’s opportunity should arrive. With the merger completed, the secret of the Azure Emperor Drawing the Saber painting should reveal itself.

“Xiao Chen, release the evil Demon clone that you subdued and grill it carefully.” Lang Taotian kicked the Gilded Coffin angrily. The coffin did not budge at all, only producing loud banging sounds.

Xiao Chen ignored him, showing no intention of taking the evil Demon clone out. His figure flashed as he headed towards the door.

“Hu chi!”

A figure suddenly blocked Xiao Chen. It was the Northern Sea Alliance’s Yan Chihai. He smiled coldly and said, “Young Master Xiao, why the rush to leave? You must have obtained the treasures on the Sea Monarch’s body in advance.”

“Noisy!”

Xiao Chen frowned and glared at the old man. Yan Chihai felt like thousands of sabers pierced him, poking him full of holes in an instant and killing him.

“Am I dead? That’s not right. This is an illusion. I fell for this brat’s Dao.”

Yan Chihai woke up in a flash, his eyes recovering their clarity. However, Xiao Chen’s fist had already landed on his chest.

Horrifying energy moved around in Yan Chihai’s body; it felt like sabers were churning his insides. He vomited blood as Xiao Chen’s punch knocked him heavily into the wall.

“Whoosh!” Xiao Chen’s figure flashed, and he easily evaded Lang Taotian, who was trying to sneak-attack him. He stretched out his right hand and grabbed Lang Taotian’s wrist.

Lang Taotian felt like a vise had clamped on his wrist. He could not help but panic. No matter how he thought about it, he could not see how his silent sneak attack had failed. It was like Xiao Chen had eyes in the back of his head and had just been waiting for him to attack.

“Bang!”

Xiao Chen raised his hand and flung Lang Taotian to the floor like garbage.

Electric light flashed under Xiao Chen’s feet. Before Lang Taotian could stand up, Xiao Chen had stomped on Lang Taotian’s chest heavily, pushing him back down. Vital Qi surged in Xiao Chen’s body. No matter how his opponent struggled, it was to no avail.

The couple from Spirit Returning Island were planning to attack at the same time. However, when they saw this scene, how could they dare to take any action?

“Xiao Chen, you bastard! Our Profound Water Sect’s Sect Master will definitely not let you off. You are an idiot, completely ignorant. Do you really think that by showing off your might in this Sea Monarch Palace, you can—”

Before Lang Taotian finished speaking, Xiao Chen raised one leg and kicked him right out of the palace. Crunches resounded as several of Lang Taotian’s ribs broke.

Just as Yan Chihai stood up, a strong gust of wind blew beside him as Lang Taotian brushed past him. Yan Chihai’s heart thumped loudly, and he paled.

When Yan Chihai saw Xiao Chen heading for him, he said hastily, “Young Master Xiao, this old man falsely accused you. You are definitely not the one who looted the Sea Monarch’s body.”

“Princess, let’s go!” Xiao Chen said as he walked past Yao Yan, smiling faintly.

Yao Yan’s heart sank. This smile had a striking similarity to the bright moon of the night. It was clearly a smile, but it did not have any warmth to it. How could there be such a cold and lonely smile?

After leaving this palace, Yao Yan led the group into the great hall.

At the great hall, Xiao Chen let out the evil Demon clone, which led the group to many undiscovered treasure rooms. Everyone managed to get some benefits.

However, the disappearance of the Emperor Grade Secret Treasures like the Divine Rain Robes and the Sea Monarch Scepter put a damper on the group’s mood. They felt that these benefits were meaningless. Compared to the treasures on the Sea Monarch’s body, these were all just trinkets.

There were many evil Demon clones in the great hall. The cultivators fought intense battles along the way before finally reaching the evil Demon’s main body.

A throne in front had the slightly dimmed Extreme Thunder Sword stabbed into it. A huge golden phantom tried several times to struggle free of the throne, but the Extreme Thunder Sword fixed it firmly in place.

It was like the Extreme Thunder Sword had pierced this phantom’s body. Every time the phantom struggled, the trembling Extreme Thunder Sword applied a shock to it.

Agonized shrieks resounded throughout the entire great hall, causing everyone to shiver.

When the golden phantom saw Yao Yan, it immediately calmed down. The phantom shrank to the size of a regular person, becoming denser until it appeared to be sitting on the throne.

If not for the Extreme Thunder Sword stabbed into the golden evil Demon and the faint lightning-attributed flames still burning on the blade, one might mistake the evil Demon for a powerful ruler.

“Little girl, you finally appear after torturing me for two years,” the golden evil Demon said through clenched teeth as a cold look flashed in its eyes.

Is that the evil Demon’s main body? It’s not very strong.

Such a thought appeared in everyone’s head. This evil Demon’s main body was completely golden. Its facial features looked like they were carved to perfection by a knife, giving it a sinister beauty.

However, aside from this, they could not see the strength of this evil Demon. Furthermore, they could not see what exactly it could do with the Extreme Thunder Sword suppressing it.

Qi Wuxue’s lips curled up as he said, “I really wonder, how did you kill those Martial Emperors when you are in such a state?”

“Martial Emperors? Those bastards from the Merfolk Race?”

Hearing Qi Wuxue mentioned the words “Martial Emperors,” the golden evil Demon gritted its teeth, revealing an extremely furious expression. This fury was much more intense than its hate for Princess Yao Yan.

When Xiao Chen saw this, he entered deep thought.

Yao Yan interrupted the golden evil Demon’s words, saying, “Young Master Xiao, there is not much of the Extreme Thunder True Fire left in the Extreme Thunder Sword. We should make full use of the time while the Demon refines it. Everyone, please make your moves together!”

After Yao Yan finished speaking, she immediately turned the lightning-attributed flame in her sword into a rainbow light, firing it at the golden evil Demon on the throne.

Long Fei made a move at the same time, sending over his Blood Kill Lightning Flame. A scarlet electric light zigzagged like a sinister venomous snake.

Qi Wuxue formed hand seals, moving his ten fingers. His Muddy Sky Demonic Imprint burned with a lightning-attributed flame as it smashed towards the golden evil Demon.

The mirror above the Northern Sea Alliance’s Yan Chihai blazed with a lightning-attributed flame. As the mirror reflected light, it spewed flames out endlessly like a spouting fountain.

The couple from Spirit Returning Island brandished their Fire Beacon Lightning Banners. Instantly, two streams of Blazing Sun Thunder Fire swept towards the golden evil Demon like the wind.

Everyone did what they could and sent lightning-attributed flames of all colors at the golden evil Demon in an overwhelming wave. As the flames flew over, they appeared very mighty. Thunder boomed within the great hall. A strong wind surged with the flames, roaring loudly.

Xiao Chen waited patiently, in no rush to make a move, studying the golden evil Demon seated on the throne.

The golden evil Demon on the throne appeared very calm. It revealed a mocking expression with its lips. As the overwhelming flames descended, it extended its right hand, and a whirlpool-like black hole appeared on its palm and sucked in all the lightning-attributed flames.

Only the sound of wind remained in the great hall. All the lightning-attributed flames vanished.

“That was pretty fun. Little girl, are these the helpers that you found? If you meet my clones, these lightning-attributed flames would still have a suppressive effect. However, you can forget about using them to deal with me. You are too naive.”

The golden evil Demon smiled coldly. “Since you like to use lightning-attributed flames to injure people, I will let you have a taste of lightning-attributed flames as well.”

“Whoosh!”

The golden evil Demon opened its mouth, and all the various lightning-attributed flames that it absorbed earlier shot out at the group with even more ferocity.

Chaos suddenly descended on the great hall as surging lightning-attributed flames filled the air, and everyone hurried to evade.

The golden evil Demon laughed loudly, and the Extreme Thunder Sword stuck in its chest trembled continuously like it would fall off at any moment.

“Whoosh!”

Xiao Chen had been storing up power and waiting to unleash it. Electric light flashed below his feet, and he nimbly dodged the lightning-attributed flames. In three or four flickers, he arrived before the throne. Then, he stretched out his hand to grab the Extreme Thunder Sword.

“You overestimate yourself.”

When the golden evil Demon saw Xiao Chen daring to rush over to it, it clenched its fist and punched towards his head.

As the evil Demon’s right hand moved with tyrannical speed, it swallowed up the vast Spiritual Energy in the air at a visible rate.

The golden fist gave off a brilliant light, a golden radiance as dazzling and piercing as the sun.

This fist light moved extremely fast. Xiao Chen sensed danger, so he quickly retreated and crossed his arms to block.

“Bang!”

A colossal force struck Xiao Chen’s arms. He went flying back a kilometer like a cannonball, then crashed into the wall of the great hall.

The entire hall shook violently. If not for the restrictions on the walls, it might have collapsed.

Xiao Chen coughed and vomited blood, his complexion pale. The force that this golden evil Demon burst forth with was indeed extremely formidable.

The force of that suction was also incredible. Xiao Chen had never seen Spiritual Energy being used this way before.

“Delay him. Create an opportunity for me.”

Xiao Chen instructed Yao Yan before he pushed his feet off the wall. This time, he executed his Movement Technique to its limits. The lightning dragons under his feet seemed to come to life, carrying him forward at lightning speed.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Xiao Chen rapidly exchanged moves with this golden evil Demon. He almost managed to grab the sword handle a few times but got blasted back each time.

Under the directions of Yao Yan, the others used their lightning-attributed flames to harass the golden evil Demon and create an opening for Xiao Chen.

The battle in the great hall intensified. The golden evil Demon was much harder to deal with than the group had expected. However, as Xiao Chen was relentless in pushing forward, the evil Demon could no longer deal with him as easily.

Occasionally, the evil Demon had to stand up to push Xiao Chen back. However, the Extreme Thunder Sword stabbed in its chest made standing up agonizing, causing it to shriek in pain.

Just as Xiao Chen was about to get knocked back again, he spun around in the time it took for a spark to fly and finally managed to grab the handle of the Extreme Thunder Sword.

The expression of the golden evil Demon changed, and it quickly stood up. The Extreme Thunder Sword stabbed even deeper. In the blink of an eye, the sword was almost hilt-deep in its chest. Its face almost touched Xiao Chen’s.

Xiao Chen calmly gripped the sword handle without letting go. Just as the other party was about to touch him, his Origin Flame raged down from his palm. As the fire blazed, it forced the golden evil Demon to sit back down.

With the burning of the flame and the stabbing of the Extreme Thunder Sword—a twofold pain—the golden evil Demon let out a sharp scream.

The others heaved a sigh of relief and stopped what they were doing. Then, they quickly moved to the side. The counterattack of the evil Demon right before its death would be its most powerful. They did not wish to get caught up in the fallout.

Lang Taotian, whom Xiao Chen had beaten up, had slunk into the great hall at some point in time.

As Lang Taotian looked at Xiao Chen, he smiled coldly to himself. This fool. When the evil Demon dies, that will be the moment of his death as well. Why is he putting in so much effort? What an idiot.

The light of the golden evil Demon started to dim slowly. First, it turned from golden to silver. Then, as it screamed in pain, it turned from silver to a translucent jade-white.
