Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 1996: Death of the Batian Demon Lord
The Sect Master of the Ascendant Demon Sect, seeing even Ancestor Nie Heng fleeing in panic, felt a burst of relief, thankful that he had not taken the opportunity to strike at Yang Xiaotian earlier.
Otherwise, he and the Ascendant Demon Sect would likely have ended up like the Batian Demon Sect.
Seeing Nie Heng and the experts of the Ancestor Clan escape, the utterly despaired disciples of the Batian Demon Sect began to flee in panic as well.
However, while the experts of the Ancestor Clan could use the Escape Talisman of their Ancestor to tear through the void and escape, these disciples of the Batian Demon Sect were utterly unable to tear through the void of the Myriad Demon Great Array.
They were constantly repelled back.
Despair, terror, and tragic resolve enveloped the disciples of the Batian Demon Sect.
The Batian Demon Lord, too, wished to leave, but under the combined assault of the Destroying Heaven Demon, the Blood Demon Old Monster, the Yin Yang Ghost Master, and the Golden Armored Qilin, he had no chance to escape.
He didn’t even have the opportunity to shatter the Space-Time Escape Talisman.
In a furious rage, he repeatedly launched frenzied attacks at Yang Xiaotian, but they were all blocked by Master Ding and the Three Thousand Innate Demon Pillars.
Unable to kill Yang Xiaotian, unable to escape the Myriad Demon City, the Batian Demon Lord was like a wounded, dying Berserk Lion, madly attacking everything around him.
Watching the Batian Demon Lord, already drenched in blood and entirely in a manic state, everyone secretly shook their heads; clearly, the Batian Demon Lord was making his final struggle.
Yet the outcome was already determined.
Everyone could see that the Batian Demon Sect was beyond saving.
Thinking that soon, the Batian Demon Lord and the Batian Demon Sect would perish in the Myriad Demon City, everyone had complex feelings.
A day ago, the Batian Demon Lord was still the ruler of the Myriad Demons, controlling the Myriad Demon City. Who could have imagined that a day later, the ruler would die within the city he controlled?
"Yang Xiaotian, I am willing to submit!" Suddenly, an elder of the Batian Demon Sect spoke up, pleading for mercy.
Everyone was stunned.
Though they looked down upon this elder of the Batian Demon Sect, they also understood that everyone has a desire to survive.
"Those who submit and help attack the Batian Demon Lord will be spared!" Yang Xiaotian said.
The elder’s face changed several times, but in the end, he also joined the ranks attacking the Batian Demon Lord.
Soon after, more and more experts from the Batian Demon Sect were willing to submit and joined in the attack on the Batian Demon Lord.
However, more of the Batian Demon Sect experts chose to fight to the death.
Fought until dusk.
The setting sun was blood red.
The Batian Demon Lord looked around at the already completely fallen disciples of the Batian Demon Sect. Besides those who submitted to Yang Xiaotian, there were no standing disciples left.
Though the Batian Demon Lord was still standing, he was covered in blood.
Some of the blood was his, some belonged to masters from Netherworld City.
Under the Batian Demon Lord’s mad assaults, quite a few masters from Netherworld City and Mist Continent sects died at his hands.
With his face smeared with blood, he looked at Yang Xiaotian and grinned savagely, "Yang Xiaotian, if I don’t die today, I’ll spend my life trying to kill you."
However, just as he finished speaking, the Netherworld Fish, Destroying Heaven Demon, and the Blood Demon Old Monster, along with four others, attacked simultaneously. The severely wounded Batian Demon Lord had no chance of resisting their combined might and was sent flying, crashing to the ground, and slid far away.
The Batian Demon Lord spewed another mouthful of blood, his armor shattering.
He tried to crush the Escape Talisman, but the Netherworld Fish, Destroying Heaven Demon, and the others attacked again, sending both him and the talisman flying away.
After a while, the Batian Demon Lord used his Demon Spear to support himself, struggling to stay upright.
Next, countless Demon Blades formed by the Myriad Demon Great Array’s demonic energy pierced through the air.
The Batian Demon Lord was powerless to resist, his entire body pierced by Demon Blades.
Feeling the life force slipping away from his body, he looked at Yang Xiaotian and gave a sorrowful smile, "Yang Xiaotian, would you like to know who my master is?"
The Batian Demon Lord’s words left everyone in shock — the Batian Demon Lord had a master?
No one had ever heard of the Batian Demon Lord having a master.
The Batian Demon Lord’s smile sent chills through everyone, "You will know in the future." Then, in a sorrowful voice, "Master!" as if calling out to his master across space-time.
At this moment, the Demon Blades formed by millions of demonic energies tore through the sky, slashing through the Batian Demon Lord’s throat.
The Batian Demon Lord paused for a moment, then collapsed to the ground with a thud.
As he fell, his head rolled away.
Watching the Batian Demon Lord collapse to the ground, everyone was struck silent.
Seeing the Batian Demon Lord dead, Yang Xiaotian, along with the others, annihilated the Lonely Sword Ghost and his followers, obtaining the upper half of the Treasure Map, then released the Myriad Demon Great Array and led the Netherworld City army toward the Batian Demon Sect headquarters with the Destroying Heaven Demon, the Blood Demon Old Monster, Old Lu, and others.
They also had the Myriad Demon City army suppress Myriad Demon City and clean up the battlefield.
With the opening of the Myriad Demon Great Array, powerful beings from all sides departed the Myriad Demon City with various feelings.
In less than half an hour, the Myriad Demon City fell silent.
After reaching the Batian Demon Sect headquarters, Yang Xiaotian and the Destroying Heaven Demon dealt with the remaining forces of the headquarters and moved the treasure vault.
As for the elder and disciples who submitted, Yang Xiaotian left them to Old Lu and the Yin Yang Ghost Master to handle.
After eradicating the remnants at the Batian Demon Sect headquarters, Yang Xiaotian returned to the Myriad Demon City.
Upon returning, the four Commanders of the Myriad Demon City army reported on the battlefield cleanup to Yang Xiaotian and handed over all the space divine artifacts from the Batian Demon Lord and others.
Yang Xiaotian took a portion and distributed it among the group, then secluded himself for cultivation.
This time, after moving the Batian Demon Sect headquarters’ treasure vault, there were thousands of Kaitian Holy Path secret books inside.
Combined with those he previously obtained in the Myriad Demon Cave, there were over sixteen thousand.
If he mastered all these Kaitian Holy Path secret books, he could cultivate his Holy Path to a total of 129,600 types! Reaching the true limit of the Holy Path!
Thus, Yang Xiaotian had two of his Divine Avatars start to comprehend and cultivate these Kaitian Holy Path secret books, while he consumed the Holy Flame Demon Lotus obtained from the Myriad Demon Secret Realm, aiming for a higher realm.
The Batian Demon Sect vault also contained thirty-thousand-year-old divine medicine.
Once he refined and assimilated the Holy Flame Demon Lotus and the thirty-thousand-year-old divine medicine, he could fully break through to the Saint King Realm.
Upon reaching the Saint King Realm, he could activate the soullike energy of the Myriad Demon City’s Myriad Demon Great Array.
By then, with the Myriad Demon Soul, along with Netherworld Fish and others, even if the Ancestor himself came, Yang Xiaotian would have the confidence to fight.
Therefore, he needed to break through to the Saint King Realm before the Ancestor arrived.
The news of the annihilation of the Batian Demon Lord and the Batian Demon Sect struck like a super Chaos Thunder, causing a tremendous shock across the Ancestor Continent.
Even the surrounding continents were shocked to hear of the Batian Demon Sect’s annihilation.
Meanwhile, Nie Heng and the experts of the Ancestor Clan also fled back to the Ancestor Ancient City.
Upon learning that Yang Xiaotian not only killed the Batian Demon Lord but also severely injured Nie Heng and other holders of the Ancestor Order Flag, both the Ancestor of the Ancestors and the Clan Leader of the Ancestor Clan were furious.
