After a single blow sent them flying back, the two didn't hesitate for even a moment. In an instant, they transformed into two shooting stars, colliding once again.

An even greater roar erupted!

This was undoubtedly the highest level of conflict Chen Yuan had encountered since entering the martial world, at least, that was the case solely from his perspective.

If Moro were present, it would be a different story!

The battle of the True Monarch Sacred Realm provided Chen Yuan with an extremely powerful experience.

At the same time, he gained a very accurate understanding of his own strength. With the Qilin True Body activated and all means exhausted, he could indeed barely reach the True Monarch level.

Although he couldn't sustain it for long, he had definitely reached it.

However, the disadvantages were also obvious.

His raw strength still had a clear gap compared to this Great Sage of the demon race. Apart from the initial evenly matched stage, they had been engaged in a fierce battle for nearly half an hour.

And he was gradually falling into a disadvantage!

After all, he was not a True Monarch, not even at the peak of Refining Spirit. His mastery of Divine Powers was not particularly profound either. He could reach this point largely due to transforming into a Qilin Demon.

This also showed how easy it had been for him back then. If Senior Moro hadn't helped, it would have been extremely difficult for him to kill the Fire Qilin alone.

It was precisely Moro's easy suppression of the Fire Qilin that gave him the opportunity to devour the Qilin's blood.

Time passed second by second.

Chen Yuan and Bai Niansheng had long reached a state of extreme intensity. The scales of victory were gradually tilting towards Bai Niansheng's side. He snorted coldly, still not satisfied with his current strength.

A Great Sage fighting against a Human Race Refining Spirit cultivator, even if he was a Qilin Demon with a divine weapon in hand, yet he had been unable to take him down for so long, it was indeed a disgrace.

However, the reality was right in front of him. He really couldn't defeat the other party in a short amount of time.

"Qilin Demon, you are no match for me. Why don't you surrender quickly? Considering your difficult cultivation and high talent, I am willing to give you a chance to join the demon race."

Bai Niansheng wanted to break down the person's fighting spirit, trying to persuade him while fighting.

However, this was just talk. This human race's combat talent was too astonishing. He had to be completely eradicated. Moreover, although his current appearance was somewhat similar to the demon race.

But he was, after all, still a human. He wouldn't feel safe if such a person joined the demon race.

"Noisy, old fox, save your tricks." Chen Yuan snorted coldly, not impressed by the other party's very subtle attempt to persuade him to surrender in the manner of the human race.

He responded with a straight punch.

The void trembled incessantly, his blood energy like a torrent.

"There's an ancient saying in the human race, 'A wise man submits to circumstances.' Qilin Demon, you can't last too long in your current state. I'm giving you a chance to live, yet you don't appreciate it!"

"Hahaha..." Chen Yuan laughed loudly and shouted:

"Demon, do you think this is the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains of Southern Border? With the commotion of our fight, this news must have already spread outside.

Once the human race's experts arrive, you will surely die. I will definitely tear off your fox skin."

Hearing this, Bai Niansheng's heart sank. This was what he was most worried about. Although Nanping Prefecture was very close to the Southern Border, it was very far from the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox clan.

In a short amount of time, no strong members of the clan could come to help. And if he delayed for too long, and the human race's experts arrived first, he would have no hope of winning under their siege.

Nanzhou was the southernmost part of the Central Plains. There were two major forces on the surface alone: the Daoist Biyou Palace and the imperial court's Zhennan King. There were countless others hidden in the shadows.

Just as the demon race liked to devour human race primordial spirits for cultivation and nourishing their bodies, the human race's experts also liked the demon race's bodies, which were treasures from head to toe.

Chen Yuan couldn't last too long, and neither could he.

In fact, the states of both sides were the same.

That was... a quick battle!

Seeing that Chen Yuan had no intention of surrendering and instead wanted to delay, Bai Niansheng stopped talking nonsense and mobilized the power of heaven and earth, using his Sky Fox True Body to attack again.

The commotion between the two became increasingly larger, and the trajectories of their battles were unpredictable. Sometimes Chen Yuan was knocked back, and Bai Niansheng would approach for close combat. And if Bai Niansheng retreated, Chen Yuan would do the same, not wanting to give him a chance to react.

And the surrounding onlookers who had gathered began to increase. Many people knew that this would be very dangerous, but they couldn't resist the curiosity in their hearts, feeling that it was extremely rare for two demon race Great Sages to openly fight in the human race territory.

The Dengxian Tower in Nanping Prefecture almost instantly used the most critical sound transmission talisman to transmit this news. Other Central Plains forces that had established branches were also rapidly spreading this news.

It could be imagined that at this time, there would definitely be many experts coming to investigate the truth.

Su Ziyue had already left Qiyue Mountain. Although it was best not to take action, she was not a lamb to the slaughter. Worried about Chen Yuan's safety, she didn't want to leave at all.

Of course, she couldn't.

Because the old ancestor of the Su family, a Refining Spirit cultivator, had been staring at her the whole time. Out of consideration for other factors, he hadn't taken action, but if she left, it wouldn't be certain.

Su Ziyue was someone that the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox clan's divine son had specifically requested. Even that demon race Great Sage had to send her back first. If he let her run away at this time, the entire Su family would be destroyed.

"Ziyue..."

The Su family's old ancestor frowned and glanced at the huge commotion in the distance. He couldn't help but move closer, staring at Su Ziyue with flickering eyes.

"Does the old ancestor need something?"

Su Ziyue's expression was cold. She glanced at him, already having a faint intention to draw a line.

"Who... exactly is this person?"

The Su family's old ancestor asked in a deep voice.

He could be considered well-informed. Although the Su family was hidden in Nanping Prefecture, Nanzhou, and rarely showed their faces outside, their underground power and intelligence were actually not weak at all.

After all, their Su family was a nail that the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox clan had planted in the human race, and they had to transmit various messages to the demon race.

But even so, he had not been able to perceive the true identity of this person through the characteristics of the Qilin Demon. It was as if he had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

His strength was truly terrifying!

That power was at least no less than Elder Bai's in the short term. If he were placed in the Central Plains, he would even have a great chance of ascending the Supreme Ranking, which represented the Central Plains' top combat power!

He didn't know how Su Ziyue had gotten to know such an existence, and it seemed that they were very close. He didn't know what they were doing inside the cave.

"Is that important?"

Su Ziyue replied with a calm gaze, but she was a little anxious in her heart.

Of course, she could see that Chen Yuan's state was now beginning to decline, and he couldn't last too long. Once he was defeated, then perhaps she would have to risk awakening Senior Moro.

At this time, Jiang He was still on his way.

His speed of wielding the sword was extremely fast, almost able to cross several miles in an instant, but... Qingzhou City was really a bit far from Nanping Prefecture, even in a straight line, it was tens of thousands of miles away.

Although the True Monarch's speed was fast, he couldn't arrive in a short amount of time.

The Su family's old ancestor's eyes flickered uncertainly, and he hesitated in his heart. Their Su family was the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox's pawn, and there was almost no possibility of escaping.

But... if there was a force that could protect them from being oppressed by the human race's experts, it seemed... it could be considered an escape route.

Therefore, he didn't do anything drastic and mobilize the Su family's power to attack Su Ziyue.

"Alas..."

After hesitating for a long time, the Su family's old ancestor could only sigh softly.

A pawn for life, a pawn for all eternity. A traitor like the Su family would not have any way out, whether in the demon race or the human race.

Su Ziyue ignored the Su family's old ancestor, putting all her attention on the battle between Chen Yuan and Bai Niansheng, frowning and feeling very worried.

"Brother, what's going on ahead?"

At a very far distance, the number of onlookers gradually increased, looking at the scene of the earth cracking and the sky collapsing ahead, feeling frightened and filled with doubts.

"I'm not very sure either. I only know that it seems like two demon race experts have some kind of grudge."

"Humph, the demon race... this is the territory of the human race. These two demons actually dare to fight here openly. They simply don't take our human race seriously.

Once the human race's experts arrive, they will definitely suppress these two here."

Some people were prejudiced, wishing that all the demon race would die out.

"The news here is probably almost spread out. I wonder who will be the first True Monarch to arrive," someone discussed.

"Of course it's Zhennan King Nangong Lie. He's probably the only one in the entire Nanzhou who can arrive the fastest."

"Hey, brothers, who do you think will win, the fox or the Great Sage with the two horns?"

"How can the conflicts at the True Monarch level be understood by us low-level martial artists?"

"That's right."

"Everyone, do you think that these two demon race experts discovered some treasure here, and started fighting because they couldn't agree on how to split it?" someone suddenly wondered.

"That's possible!"

"Hiss!"

Someone gasped.

The treasure that two terrifying demon race experts were fighting over must be a world-shattering treasure. It's a pity that it was something they couldn't even dream of getting their hands on.

Chen Yuan and Bai Niansheng knew nothing about the conversations outside, nor did they want to know. At this time, they had put all their minds on each other.

However, they both knew one thing. As the number of onlookers increased, it wouldn't be long before True Monarch experts from other prefectures would arrive here.

This might be good news for Chen Yuan, but not for Bai Niansheng.

Chen Yuan tried his best to maintain his strength. Although he was now at a disadvantage, it wouldn't be quite accurate to say that he was defeated. He could still hold on for a while.

He also took this opportunity to gradually gather all his power together.

The power of the Qilin True Body had been thoroughly experienced after more than half an hour of fighting, but the other aspects had not yet merged into one.

When fist and palm clashed, the void shook violently.

The two of them had true forms of just over ten zhang in size, but the commotion was not small at all. Chen Yuan had the Heavenly Demon True Body, using the Qilin Demon's powerful blood energy as the foundation, condensing a phantom avatar that was over a hundred zhang in size.

Bai Niansheng had also summoned the Sky Fox True Body, with its huge size exuding an unusually terrifying aura.

It was like two giants were fighting!

The two of them with True Monarch-level combat power had reached a terrifying level of control over the heaven and earth's vitality. Fighting in the high sky was no different from a series of lightning strikes.

Each collision could shake away the gathered dark clouds.

The two of them didn't say much, nor did they mock each other. All they had was the desire to kill each other with all their might.

"I can't wait any longer!"

As time passed, his heart became heavier and heavier. He had thought that the Qilin Demon across from him wouldn't be able to last too long and would be defeated, but at this time, he was still persisting.

And in the short term, there were no signs of defeat.

Then, he had to use his real trump card.

The other party could delay, but he couldn't.

A trace of extreme killing intent flashed in Bai Niansheng's eyes. Once he had made up his mind, he didn't hesitate any longer, preparing to deliver a sure-kill blow to this human race Qilin Demon.

Even if he would suffer a great loss in strength because of this... that was the only way.

Seeming to see Bai Niansheng's plan, or perhaps Chen Yuan had been calculating the time, in short, he also felt that it was almost time for the final decisive battle.

Now that half an hour had passed since the battle began, with the commotion they had made, it must have spread throughout Nanzhou, and even beyond Nanzhou.

This old fox must also know this in his heart.

It was impossible to delay any longer. He was probably thinking of killing him with one blow.

But...

This was also a good opportunity that Chen Yuan had been waiting for.

Because, besides Moro, he had another real trump card that he hadn't used yet!

Void Freeze!

This was definitely the real trump card to turn defeat into victory.

Before, Chen Yuan had desperately revealed everything except this trump card. And the reason why he had kept his hand was not only because freezing for an instant wouldn't be able to seriously injure this old fox.

But he was also ready to give him a real surprise.

Only at the most critical moment could he determine the outcome of the battle.

As early as after the battle had just begun, Chen Yuan knew that he couldn't possibly be his opponent if he didn't have other methods based on his own strength.

He might not even be able to hold on for too long.

He had to find an opportunity.

Now, this old fox had finally couldn't help but take the bait...

"Boom!"

Another extremely strong clash, the void trembled, and one-fifth of the black scales on Chen Yuan's body had been stained red. There was an extremely deep wound on his back.

Although it was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye, it would soon be shaken open again under the continuous fierce clashes, repeating endlessly.

Of course, Bai Niansheng's condition was not much better. Although it was much lighter than Chen Yuan's, he still had a lot of wounds.

Two pairs of eyes stared at each other, wishing they could eat each other's flesh and sleep on each other's skin.

The two sides retreated, each retreating a hundred zhang, but just as Bai Niansheng was retreating, he actually forcibly stopped his retreating body, enduring the shock.

In the next moment, the Sky Fox True Body, which was more than ten zhang in size, instantly crossed the void. This speed was almost invisible to the naked eye, and this was also a real sure-kill method that he had prepared for Chen Yuan.

The power of his whole body gathered into one, and having prepared in advance, his pupils instantly changed, turning from brown to pitch black, and the hairs on his body were trembling.

"Human, fall!"

Bai Niansheng shouted in a low voice. At this time, his distance was already thirty zhang away from Chen Yuan. For their huge size, it was almost like being close.

His ink-colored pupils gathered a faint light, staring at Chen Yuan's eyes, and a cruel sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. In the next moment, all the gathered power erupted.

Two black beams of light, radiating extreme danger, shot straight at Chen Yuan's head!

This was the trump card he had kept, the strongest divine power he had comprehended in the Sky Fox bloodline, and he named it the "Sure-Kill Eye," which required preparation in advance.

At the critical moment, give the other party a sure-kill blow.

Perhaps he couldn't kill him, but he could at least seriously injure him. And once he was seriously injured, he would be able to rely on his own strength to suppress the other party and destroy this Qilin Demon.

He didn't think Chen Yuan could stop it.

At such a fast distance, arriving in an instant, he didn't have such strong power. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been gradually suppressed by him. He estimated that this Qilin Demon might also have some methods, but he definitely couldn't stop it.

Unfortunately, he was wrong.

He was so close, and he had burst out such powerful power in a short period of time, and his main body must have a brief period of weakness. And this was the opportunity Chen Yuan had been painstakingly looking for.

Counterattack, he wanted to counterattack!

At the moment when the other party gathered the faint light, no, at the moment when the other party suddenly stopped his retreating body and quickly came forward, Chen Yuan realized what he was doing.

When the faint light bloomed, he... used Void Freeze.

The light was very fast, and even True Monarch experts would have difficulty avoiding it, but his method was to freeze the void.

He could see a hint of joy on the other party's face, and he had prepared his response.

When the ten-inch primordial spirit bloomed, the surrounding ten zhang seemed to freeze instantly, like a mirror, and nothing could move.

With such an extreme reaction, Bai Niansheng couldn't even react.

The faint light was frozen at a distance of one zhang in front of Chen Yuan, and Chen Yuan could even feel his whole body involuntarily trembling.

He knew that if the faint light hit his body, he would either die or be seriously injured, even if he had the Qilin True Body.

But, it was okay if he avoided it.

Although an instant was short, it was enough.

He forcibly shifted his body. Because the speed was too fast, in the eyes of outsiders, he was still frozen in place. Su Ziyue's eyes widened, and her body trembled.

Seeming to not want to see that scene.

Chen Yuan's Void Freeze could only be used two or three times in its most extreme state. Once it was used up, he would fall into extreme weakness, but because he was refining the spirit.

He had tried it and could hold on once more.

A distance of thirty zhang was very short, but it was also very long. In order not to waste this long-awaited opportunity, Chen Yuan forcibly withstood the pressure and used it twice in a row.

These two Void Freezes were used almost instantly, which brought Chen Yuan unparalleled pressure, and his primordial spirit seemed to explode.

With red eyes, he instantly crossed a distance of thirty zhang, tightly grasping the Emperor Slaughter Saber in his hand, and slashed out with all his strength.

At such a close distance, he could even see the shocked and surprised eyes of Bai Niansheng....
