Lizard Spirit turned to look at the Shennong Ding placed aside and quickly said, "Don't worry about me. I'll exchange my Shennong Ding for you to rescue Jing Yue from that Demon Lord!"
Shennong Ding? Li Yunyang hadn't noticed it before. Following Lizard Spirit's gaze, he looked over and immediately felt excited: "How did the Shennong Ding end up here? That's great! If I couldn't retrieve it, I would have had no way to report back!"
He quickly picked up the Shennong Ding. Finally, his mission was accomplished. Lizard Spirit said, "The Demon Lord originally intended to bury both the Shennong Ding and me in this demonic fire. With this ding in your possession, you can threaten the Demon Lord to hand over Jing Yue!"
Jing Yue, no matter when, Lizard Spirit still thought of that Witch. Since ancient times, infatuation has only led to regrets. Li Yunyang felt a pang of sympathy and turned to look at the flames around him, which were growing larger. It seemed he needed to find a way to extinguish them first.
With his master outside holding the fort, he didn't need to worry at all. Li Yunyang shrugged off his coat and began to beat out the flames. However, no matter how hard he tried, it was futile. In desperation, he thought: it seemed there was no choice but to fight fire with fire.
Let's see if I can break a big hole in this cave first, he thought as he raised his Azure Dragon Sword, channeling his inner energy into it and concentrating it all on the sword's edge. A powerful white airflow began to swirl around him.
"What are you doing?" Lizard Spirit completely couldn't understand what he was up to. Suddenly, he raised his head and aimed at the thick cave ceiling: "Exorcism Essence: Azure Dragon Raging Wind Slash."
As soon as this move was unleashed, it was like a violent wind explosion; a fierce wind sliced through like sharp blades. With three loud bangs, a hole was instantly blasted through the cave ceiling.
"Hmph!" A satisfied smile appeared on Li Yunyang's face. Seeing that he had mastered the Five-Character Formula, Feng Qingyang, who stood above the clouds, felt greatly comforted and immediately shifted his focus onto the Demon Lord.
"Demon Lord, today we will settle this once and for all!" Feng Qingyang swung his White Beard Sword, drawing an arc towards the opponent, unleashing a powerful sword energy that surged toward the Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord frowned slightly and casually tossed aside the troublesome Jing Yue, raising one hand effortlessly to block Feng Qingyang's initial attack.
Wow, is this for real? This bastard actually threw his own daughter down from above! Li Yunyang cursed under his breath and rushed over just in time to catch Jing Yue securely.
"Sigh!" Li Yunyang let out a long sigh as he looked down at the dazed expression of Witch Jingyue. He couldn't help but shake his head: "Once such an arrogant figure, today she has fallen to this state—how tragic!"
"Jing Yue!” Seeing that Jing Yue was safe and sound, Lizard Spirit cried out anxiously. The fierce wind from Li Yunyang's slash had caused quite a stir; battling against demonic fire with strong winds had backfired and extinguished the flames just in time. Fortunately, Lizard Spirit wasn't burned alive, and the Shennong Ding was also preserved.
Li Yunyang brought Jing Yue before Lizard Spirit, extending his hand through the gaps in the cage to touch her face. "Don't worry, Jing Yue, as long as I find the Ancestor of the Demon Refining Pot, I will definitely restore your sanity."
Indeed, at this moment, Xiang Xueer and the others were somewhere unknown, surely searching for him. He suddenly slapped his forehead hard. "How could I be so foolish? In this vast sea of people, when will they ever find me? I've been too focused on chasing that damned Fire Rat and completely forgot to leave them a signal!"
Feeling frustrated, he looked up at the two people in the sky who were fighting fiercely. He couldn't help with his master, and without the Black Iron Sword, he felt utterly helpless at such a critical moment.
Xiang Xueer and her companions had been searching westward for several days and were finally very close to the peak of the sky. Fat Ancestor was increasingly able to sense the resonance of Shennong Ding, so they managed to find this place quite smoothly.
"Isn't this Tianshan Peak, Fat Master? Are you sure it's here?" Xiang Xueer looked up at the vast snowy mountain peaks ahead and frowned.
Suddenly, the Azure Wind Sword behind her began to resonate. She quickly turned around to see it flying out from its sheath and then turning to head forward.
Seeing the anxious Azure Wind Sword, Fat Ancestor smiled and said, "Looks like I don't need to explain; that old thing is already leading us."
The group exchanged glances and hurriedly quickened their pace to follow behind Azure Wind Sword. Sure enough, not long after, sounds of battle echoed from above in the sky. Even from a hundred miles away, they could feel the two powerful forces.
"Exorcism Essence: Crimson Lotus Dragon Flame Fireball!" A loud shout came from the sky as Feng Qingyang unleashed a fiery attack. The sky was filled with a sea of red clouds, and flames formed into a dragon shape as they violently descended toward the ground.
With a thunderous boom, the swirling fireballs illuminated the mountaintop and filled the sky. Following that was a massive black sphere that grew larger as it retaliated with "Heavenly Demon Dance: Purple Thunder Nine Strikes."
Boom! The sky erupted with thunderous roars as purple lightning accompanied by flames crashed down toward the ground. Xiang Xueer couldn't help but feel alarmed; everyone quickly dodged this deadly move.
First came the flames, then the lightning; the ground had already been battered to pieces. The group took cover behind a large stone wall as falling thunder and flames struck down chaotically, sending stone debris flying everywhere.
"My God, this is simply Earth Shattering!" Ling Zhu squinted through the thick dust, feeling disoriented and unable to discern their direction.
"It seems that the Demon Lord is following the trend of the battle with Feng Qingyang!" Xiang Xueer was extremely familiar with these two moves. It was surprising that these two archrivals would meet here; could it be for the Shennong Ding?
She glanced at Fat Ancestor and signaled him. He immediately nodded in response, "That's right, the Shennong Ding should indeed be nearby."
If the Shennong Ding is here, could Fire Rat and Li Yunyang also be in the vicinity? Xiang Xueer couldn't help but worry; she hoped that their fighting wouldn't involve that idiot Li Yunyang!
Xiang Xueer looked up at the sky. Tch, how could she just wait here at this moment? No, she couldn't feel at ease with either the Shennong Ding or Li Yunyang. Thus, she turned and dashed out from behind the stone wall, "You all stay here; I'm going to check it out!"
"Hey, Shirley, be careful!" Ling Zhu reminded her with concern. She turned back and confidently smiled at a few people, "Don't worry; this little bit of lightning and fire won't hurt me at all!"
She bit her finger and quickly formed seals, slamming her hand onto the ground. The earth rapidly cracked open, and she shouted heroically, "Summoning!"
After a burst of white smoke, Taotie appeared before her. She reached out and patted her old partner's head, "Long time no see! Sorry for calling you out just to fight!"
Taotie laughed heartily upon hearing this, "Master, my appearance is meant for fighting alongside you!"
Xiang Xueer felt a sharp pain in her foot and instantly stood on Taotie's back. The duo easily dodged the lightning and flames as they headed toward the battlefield in the sky.
In the distance, they saw Feng Qingyang locked in a fierce battle with the Demon Lord. The two were preparing to engage in a second round when they noticed Xiang Xueer approaching rapidly on Taotie.
"Demoness?" Feng Qingyang's expression darkened upon seeing her. How did this woman end up here? Was she coming to assist the Demon Lord? This could be troublesome; he had barely managed to hold his own against the Demon Lord, and if she came to help, he would likely struggle to contend with them both.
