Chapter 583: Escaped
Demonic Qi surged, forming a giant hand that fiercely grabbed and shattered countless sword blades in an instant, while the other half rushed rapidly towards him.
Chen Lan raised his sword and slashed, a beam of Sword Qi exploded the remaining Flying Sword.
But in the next second, an endless stream of Flying Swords flew out again from the Array.
Seeing this, Chen Lan squinted slightly, raised his left hand a little, and a giant demon rose from the ground with blood-red skin, no mouth or nose, only a giant single eye.
"Block these Flying Swords," Chen Lan said calmly, and the giant demon immediately let out a strange cry, starting to block the Flying Swords with its body.
Chen Lan swiftly flashed and appeared in front of the Heavenly Sword War God.
Clang!
The two clashed their weapons, sparks flew from the sword blades, reflecting in their eyes, rich with fighting spirit.
"The Sword Venerable descends to slay demons and purify evil," the Heavenly Sword War God spoke lightly.
Rumble!
In an instant, a beam of Divine Light descended from the sky, shooting straight to the ground, Spiritual Power reverberating, annihilating countless Fierce Ghosts and demons.
A massive Dharma Aspect appeared, holding a Divine Light Treasure Sword, with a solemn expression, emitting terrifying divine might, its gaze shot two blazing beams towards Chen Lan.
Chen Lan instantly retreated, looking at the Sword Venerable’s Dharma Aspect, his aura climbing higher, and a blood-red beam fell with a crash, as a massive Demon God Dharma Aspect suddenly appeared, emanating demonic might, dispersing much of the Divine Light.
"The sword splits the heavens," the Heavenly Sword War God shouted, the Sword Venerable raised the Divine Light Treasure Sword high, instantly cleaving through the cloud layers of the sky, like splitting a great canyon.
Buzz!
The sound of swords rang out, like a dragon soaring in the sky, deafening.
Chen Lan looked up to see a giant sword already above him, falling instantly.
Boom!
The Demon God Dharma Aspect raised a sharp blade, sword tip against sword tip, the two gigantic swords exploded with terrifying fluctuations of Spiritual Power, space cracking, the sound echoing far and wide, endless mountains crumbling down.
Space trembled violently, the illusory dreams of the two actually became unstable because of their attacks!
"Demon Slayer, your strength is truly terrifying," the Heavenly Sword War God squinted slightly.
Their explosive clash actually destabilized the illusory dream, enough to show that the collision of their strengths had far exceeded the range the illusory dream could bear.
The power of the Divine Daoist was still too terrifying, the illusory dream could not sustain it.
It seems only by reaching the strongest Breaking Illusion can one withstand their attacks.
"This place is not somewhere we can fight," Chen Lan said calmly.
If the illusory dream shattered, it would not be good for either party, both would suffer backlash.
"In that case, let’s go."
Said the Heavenly Sword War God, unraveling the illusory dream, while Chen Lan simultaneously unraveled it, returning the two to their original place.
Looking at the corpses all over the ground, all from the Evil Race, the Heavenly Sword War God showed anger and a hint of unnoticeable pleasure in his eyes, "These Violent Rats, are indeed terrifying creatures."
At this moment, Chen Lan’s expression turned cold, his clone delivering the message that the Celestial Emperor had dispatched two extremely terrifying experts, coming towards Demon Prison Mountain, they would arrive within a hundred breaths.
It was very likely that they were other War Gods, with just one Heavenly Sword War God, he could barely handle it, if two more came, he might not be able to escape.
If he died, it meant his daughter would die too, having just reunited, how could he easily die here!
"Hold him back," Chen Lan shouted loudly, swiftly retreating.
Having saved his daughter, he must leave this place, as for killing the Celestial Emperor and exterminating the Evil Race, he still needed preparation.
This month’s preparation was only for the operation to rescue his daughter, now it was going smoothly, as long as he could leave, it would be a perfect plan.
In an instant, countless Violent Rats swarmed in, surrounding the Heavenly Sword War God.
"Damn beasts, get out of the way!" The Heavenly Sword War God furiously slashed several times, but when cutting down the Violent Rats, it was futile, as if absorbed by them.
Boom!
Suddenly, a Violent Rat raised its sharp claws, bursting with demonic light, grabbing towards the Heavenly Sword War God, instantly ripping open his chest, spilling divine blood.
"This!" The Heavenly Sword War God exclaimed in surprise, repeatedly retreating, looking at the claw marks on his chest, filled with terror.
He thought these Violent Rats couldn’t hurt him, merely beings of a Dao Ancestor level, not worth being on guard against.
But unexpectedly, just one claw had made him bleed!
"Something’s not right, these Violent Rats can actually absorb my attacks and then convert it into self-energy for counterattack!" The Heavenly Sword War God exclaimed.
What kind of physique or Divine Technique is this, it’s too terrifying, even more outrageous than those of the Evil Race.
Could it be taught by the Demon Emperor?
Suddenly, he widened his eyes, looking towards Chen Lan’s direction, only to find Chen Lan’s silhouette long gone.
"Demon Emperor!!!" The Heavenly Sword War God roared in fury.
This is bad, losing Chen Lan, returning would surely incur the Celestial Emperor’s wrath.
Just as he roared in anger, those Violent Rats suddenly stopped attacking and swarmed towards another side, as if given some instruction.
At the same time, two figures hurried over from afar, surprisingly two women, who looked exactly the same, twin sisters.
"Sword Heaven, where is the Demon Slayer?"
"Sword Heaven, where is the Demon Slayer?"
The two spoke in unison, like some kind of robots, yet indeed human.
"He fled, follow these Violent Rats, surely they lead to him," Sword Heaven said coldly.
Instantly, the three followed the Violent Rats, suddenly shocked to see a Teleportation Array descending from the sky, activating!
"Not good, they are trying to escape, capture these Violent Rats, they have great research value, if tamed, even better," Sword Heaven angrily shouted.
The twin sisters nodded, starting to take action, constantly attacking the legs of those Violent Rats, preventing their escape.
Some Violent Rats, seeing their companions captured, began raising their heads, giving strange cries, charging towards the trio, while the remaining Violent Rats continued to pour into the Teleportation Array, disappearing without a trace.
"These Violent Rats are surprisingly smart, we must quickly enter the Teleportation Array, or we’ll lose them entirely," Sword Heaven urged.
He was sure Chen Lan was on the other side of the Teleportation Array, he must not let the Demon Slayer escape again.
Just as the three planned to pursue, they were surrounded by dozens of Violent Rats, slowing their advance, only able to watch as the light of the Teleportation Array gradually dimmed, ultimately closing!
"Damn Demon Emperor!!!" Sword Heaven roared, starting to capture Violent Rats in frustration.
Half an hour later, only then were those Violent Rats completely killed, looking at the corpses, Sword Heaven’s anger still not vented.
After venting, fear crept back, because the Demon Slayer had escaped, and if the Celestial Emperor asked, how could he explain?
But in his mind, he heard the Celestial Emperor’s voice.
"Did you capture the Demon Slayer?"
Upon hearing this, Sword Heaven and the twin sisters’ bodies shivered, their expressions extremely fearful.
The Demon Slayer had escaped, how could they respond?
After a long silence, the Celestial Emperor’s voice sounded again.
"Return."
Though devoid of emotional tone, they could tell the Celestial Emperor was furious!
The trio exchanged looks, having no choice but to return in trepidation.
