"You think you can kill me with this demon flame? You're really dreaming." Li Mu chuckled, exerting spiritual power in his hand and softly shouting, "Collect!"

As soon as his words fell, the Netherworld Demon Flame seemed to be attracted by some force, and in the blink of an eye, was collected into a three-legged small tripod.

With the disappearance of the Netherworld Demon Flame, Li Mu's figure emerged, his appearance reverting to normal. His face was handsome and his eyes were bright and piercing. His tattered blackened magic robe revealed skin as flawless as glazed porcelain, emanating a mysterious and powerful aura.

Li Mu casually cast a Dust Cleaning Technique on himself, and in the next moment, all the charred blackness disappeared, revealing a robustly muscular naked upper body.

Li Mu took a golden robe from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl and put it on. Then, five Tier Five Top-Grade Spiritual Swords appeared. As soon as the five spirit swords appeared, they transformed into artifact spirits of different colors and forms: a small blue flood dragon, a small white silver fish, a piece of Ancient Tong Wood, a little fire sparrow, and a little earth turtle. They came to life, roaming around their master, displaying strong spiritual energy.

"To receive and not give back would be rude. Fellow Daoist, please accept my sword." Li Mu smiled slightly, and with a wave of his hand, a strong Five Elements Spiritual Essence surged forth, and the surrounding Heaven and Earth Five Elements Spiritual Power was siphoned and rushed into the five spirit swords.

The five spirit swords flew out in the blink of an eye, revealing their blades, and quickly united in the air, disappearing instantly.

"Boom!" a loud explosion sounded.

The Five Elements Spirit Sword revealed its form, appearing in front of the Tian Jue Demon Venerable, clashing fiercely with his fist, clearing the surrounding aura.

A massive shockwave spread in all directions like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.

"Wow!"

"Puh!..."

The disciples of Qing Xuan Sect and the Nine Demons Sect engaged in fierce battle were blasted away, those nearby spitting blood and dying on the spot, those farther away falling to the ground spitting blood, souls escaping, causing the originally intense battlefield to suddenly quiet down.

Everyone's eyes turned toward the center of the field.

A golden-robed young man, unreasonably youthful, hovered in the sky, hands forming sword techniques, facing off with the Tian Jue Demon Venerable, controlling a massive Five Elements Spirit Sword, grappling with the Tian Jue Demon Venerable.

Under his control, the Five Elements Spirit Sword held fast against the Tian Jue Demon Venerable's fist, stabbing downward with force, dark purple blood dripping from Tian Jue Demon Venerable's fist.

Clearly, in this contest, the Tian Jue Demon Venerable was at a disadvantage, using his flesh and bone to withstand the opponent's flying sword.

"Haha! He's not dead, the 'Ancestor' successfully crossed the tribulation!"

"We're saved!"

"Look, isn't that Elder Li?"

"It really does seem to be Elder Li!"

"Wow! It turns out to be Elder Li from the Hundred Refinement Peak!"

"So that's Elder Li! Wow! So amazing!"

...

Seeing someone take on the Demon Venerable of the Nine Demons Sect and even gain the upper hand, the disciples of the Qing Xuan Sect immediately let out cheers of excitement. Some even recognized the true identity of the 'Ancestor' from the familiar robe, exclaiming in disbelief.

The Tian Jue Demon Venerable's eyes were bloodshot, letting out a powerful shout, using his strength to send the Five Elements Spirit Sword flying, and his figure disappeared in the blink of an eye, reappearing as a shadow beside Li Mu, punching forcefully.

Li Mu had anticipated this, with his Divine Sense fully open, not using the Five Elements Escape Technique to dodge but choosing to face him head-on.

"Bang bang..." the sounds of punching, powerful and deep, with fists and feet clashing, back and forth, causing the sky to collapse and the ground to split, a scene of extreme chaos and excitement.

"Oh my god! Run quickly!"

"Elder Li, don't fight here!"

"Elder Li, take him away quickly!"

...

One was a Divinity Transformation Demon Venerable, the other was Elder Li with strength not inferior to a Divinity Transformation. The aftermath of their battle could easily kill a Nascent Soul True Monarch, not to mention the Golden Core Disciples and Foundation Establishment Disciples. The disciples of the Qing Xuan Sect shouted loudly, fleeing for their lives, afraid of being caught in the fray.

Realizing this situation, Li Mu no longer engaged in close combat with the Tian Jue Demon Venerable. Instead, he used the Five Elements Escape Technique to hide in an uninhabited place and then controlled the Five Elements Spirit Sword to attack his opponent.

Only close combat offers a chance of victory, so the Tian Jue Demon Venerable was unwilling to let his opponent escape. When Li Mu's figure appeared, the Tian Jue Demon Monarch followed closely. Had he not just crossed the tribulation and not fully recovered, this person would indeed become his mortal enemy in the future.

The two engaged in a high-speed chase, quickly distancing themselves from the battlefield.

With the Tian Jue Demon Venerable being lured away by Li Mu, Venerable Qingfeng led a group of Nascent Soul Elders from the Qing Xuan Sect to begin sweeping through the disciples of the Nine Demons Sect.

"Quick, join me in dealing with these demon spawn so we can assist 'Elder Li'." Venerable Qingfeng shouted loudly, leading a large group of Nascent Soul True Monarchs to strike at the high-end combat forces of the Nine Demons Sect.

"Yes!"

The Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the Qing Xuan Sect launched a full-scale assault, leading the disciples with a mighty momentum to launch a counterattack against the Nine Demons Sect.

With the top-tier force, the Tian Jue Demon Venerable, absent, the offensive of the Nine Demons Sect rapidly declined, falling into a state of defeat.

After luring the Tian Jue Demon Venerable away from the main battlefield, Li Mu fully unleashed his strength, setting up a Five Elements Sword Array, successfully drawing him into it. Simultaneously, Li Mu gripped a Tier Five Spirit Sword, entering the Five Elements Sword Array, hiding within it, waiting for an opportunity to inflict a severe blow on the Tian Jue Demon Venerable.

The Tian Jue Demon Venerable, concentrating on dealing with the Five Elements Spirit Sword, suddenly changed his expression.

Hurriedly, he clapped his hands, swiping to the right and releasing a streak of black flame. With a crisp "snap," the sharp sword qi pierced through the black flame, temporarily stopping the deadly attack, allowing the Tian Jue Demon Venerable to avoid the ambush.

However, "swish swish..." several Five Elements Sword Qi flew past, with the Tian Jue Demon Venerable dodging them skillfully.

With a "puff," one of the sword qi was not avoided, leaving a sword mark on the Tian Jue Demon Venerable's right cheek, with blood oozing out.

The Tian Jue Demon Monarch's face darkened, his sinister eyes bloodshot, consumed with rage. He had advanced to a Divinity Transformation Demon Venerable for hundreds of years and had never suffered such an injury. It was intolerable!

Yet, when the Tian Jue Demon Monarch wanted to retaliate, the opponent had already vanished.

Disturbed by the Five Elements Sword Qi, the Tian Jue Demon Monarch's formidable Primordial Spirit found itself trapped in the array, bound and disturbed, needing to stay vigilant while slashing the Five Elements Sword Qi.

Currently ensnared in the Five Elements Sword Array, the opponent was especially adept at the Five Elements Escape Technique.

The Tian Jue Demon Venerable was absolutely cautious, wielding his Lifebound Celestial Demon Saber, meticulously cutting through the Five Elements Sword Qi, looking for the opponent's flaw.

This sword array was rather intricate, certainly consuming a lot. The Tian Jue Demon Venerable planned to fight while stalling, intending to rely on the cultivation from the late Divinity Transformation Stage to exhaust him.

Li Mu naturally knew what the Tian Jue Demon Venerable was scheming. At present, he had just crossed the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation, urgently needing a place to retreat and consolidate his cultivation, restoring his body, and really didn't have the energy to get entangled with him.

Immediately, Li Mu vigorously activated the Five Elements Sword Array, preparing for a swift victory.

The Heaven and Earth Five Elements Spiritual Power responded to Li Mu's Primordial Spirit's summons, rushing into the Five Elements Sword Array. The five Tier Five Five Elements Flying Swords instantly increased in power by dozens, even hundreds of times, with the Heaven and Earth Five Elements Spiritual Power pouring in crazily.

In a radius of a hundred miles, the water spiritual qi, wood spiritual qi, countless sand, dust, and earth spiritual power... all converged toward the Five Elements Sword Array, causing the Five Elements Sword Qi to rampage.

Dust surged in the sky, carried with the aura of heavy earth, releasing a powerful sword qi with binding attributes.

Golden sword qi repeatedly swept toward the Tian Jue Demon Venerable, while the fire sword qi transformed into Fire Rain Arrows, shooting toward the Tian Jue Demon Venerable, piercing him with thousands of arrows.

...

In the Five Elements Sword Array, all Five Elements Spiritual Power transformed into sword qi, with the mutual generation of the Five Elements assisting each other, bursting in an unending stream. The growing stronger Five Elements Sword Qi surged toward the Tian Jue Demon Venerable.

With the changes in the Five Elements Sword Array, the Tian Jue Demon Venerable dared not underestimate it, enveloping himself in a dense black flame, wearing full demon armor like a messenger from hell, brandishing a black demon blade, and then casually knocking away the Five Elements Spirit Sword's repeated ambushes.

The endless Five Elements Sword Qi could only cause minor injuries, while the Five Elements Spirit Sword was capable of inflicting critical damage. Donning the demon armor and activating the armor-protecting demon flame, the Tian Jue Demon Venerable was confident that this Five Elements Sword Array was incapable of harming him.

"Boy, this sword array is ineffective against me. If you have any more formidable techniques, bring them out. Otherwise, once your mana is depleted, you won't even have the chance to use them!" The Tian Jue Demon Venerable coldly smiled towards the surroundings, taunting.
