Chapter 1573: Chapter 1573: Healing Wave
Following the Demon King’s command, Iron Steel Dragon Black Diamond Lorne ignored the stolen Divine Artifact Laplace, concentrating to tear his remaining body into steel fragments.
Countless steel fragments floated in the sky, arranging and assembling.
In the sky, Bai Jin, Tico, and Li Yan vaguely sensed a connection between each steel fragment, like lingering threads.
Li Yan moved first, clasping his hands to release magic influencing the steel fragments, with Tico following closely, swinging his magic wand to cast magic for obstruction.
Unfortunately, their magic had little effect on the steel fragments, unable to sever the links between them.
The steel fragments continued to arrange and assemble, forming the frame of a giant dragon, each fragment adhering to the frame like dragon scales.
Li Yan and Tico continued to release magic, attacking Iron Steel Dragon Black Diamond Lorne during his transformation.
Bai Jin’s attention wasn’t on Iron Steel Dragon Black Diamond Lorne; she was constantly trying to use interference magic against the Demon King to buy more maneuvering space for Yang Yu.
However... even during the transformation, Iron Steel Dragon Black Diamond Lorne managed to control the steel fragments skillfully, obstructing her magic.
Unable to support Yang Yu, Bai Jin was anxious and couldn’t help but focus on the suddenly appearing ghost shadow.
Within Divine Artifact Laplace, a green square shone, and Gao Yuanyi laughed, his figure disappearing from place, swiftly taking action.
In the next instant, Gao Yuanyi appeared before Yang Yu, extending Divine Artifact Laplace, accurately seizing the Demon King’s sword blade.
"Healing Wave"
A pink wave of light emanated from Divine Artifact Laplace, instantly enveloping Yang Yu and Gao Yuanyi.
A mysterious power released from deep within Yang Yu, instantly restoring 30% of his maximum life value, pulling him from danger.
The effects of Corrosion and Rust on Yang Yu hadn’t fully dissipated, yet Divine Artifact Laplace’s Healing Wave managed to cure him.
The creator of Divine Artifact Laplace had considered the situation of Corrosion and Rust preventing self-recovery, designing this skill for unexpected scenarios, offering the artifact’s user additional advantages.
Under the helmet, purple light flickered, the Demon King gazed at the suddenly appearing Gao Yuanyi, his words unwavering:
"I didn’t expect you would survive.
Back then, disregarding the rules of Ice Moon Snow Peak, you should have been completely burned to ashes."
Gao Yuanyi laughed heartily, replying playfully:
"Thanks to the Demon King for your great grace!
With your immense grace, I climbed back from Hell.
I will defeat you!
This is my revenge!"
"If you truly have the ability, bring it on."
Deceitful Emperor withdrew the sword blade from Gao Yuanyi’s hand, releasing formidable magic power, forming a Flame Wave sweeping all around.
Gao Yuanyi pulled out a tennis-sized mechanical sphere from his armor, tossing it into the Demon King’s wave.
The mechanical sphere exploded like a blooming flower, creating a shield layer, enveloping Yang Yu and Gao Yuanyi, blocking the enormous Flame Wave sent by the Demon King.
Tightening the mechanical arm, Gao Yuanyi spoke to Yang Yu behind him:
"Hey? Can you hear me?
Despite being from the Demon Clan, I hope you trust me now.
Only this way can we survive under the Demon King.
Coordinate with me! I’m going in!"
Before Yang Yu could respond, another square inside Divine Artifact Laplace lit up.
"Violent Disassembly!"
Gao Yuanyi roared, dashing forward with thunder and lightning converging on Laplace.
The Demon King stood motionless in place.
Gao Yuanyi’s other hand opened and closed, releasing Shadow Ghost Claw, a giant ghost hand emerging from the ground toward the Demon King, grasping tightly, immobilizing him.
Laplace emitted a roaring sound, Gao Yuanyi slammed his fist into the Demon King’s chest, triggering countless electric sparks, the tempestuous energy roaring out.
The Demon King was instantly blasted tens of meters away, his blood volume rapidly shifted from a warning orange-yellow to a dangerous crimson, decreasing by 30% of maximum life.
"It’s about time to smash that defensive armor of yours!"
Inside Divine Artifact Laplace lit up a green square.
Having faced the Demon King once, Gao Yuanyi knew the black armor on the Demon King could transform some damage into a highly exaggerated shield.
Laplace had been used four times before being stolen, and he had used two skills himself; four more uses would overload it.
Whether he could defeat the Demon King or escape safely depended on how these four skills were utilized!
"Violent Disassembly!"
Lightning danced on Laplace, Gao Yuanyi roared, swinging his fist at the Demon King’s head.
Unexpectedly for Gao Yuanyi, the Demon King’s figure suddenly became intangible, black mist erupted from him, stealthily covering him.
The sound of empty explosions resounded through the air, lightning flashed, Gao Yuanyi’s punch completely dispersed the ghost mist, but the Demon King was absent from within.
The Demon King’s mind was not focused on wine; his target had already shifted, aiming at Iyas and Lotcar running toward Yang Yu.
Since Yang Yu was rescued, there was no need to waste time on him; first, eliminate the annoying flies that came to his aid, then slowly take him down later.
The Demon King’s mist-like body solidified in front of Lotcar, a strange light gleaming on the black sword blade.
Lotcar didn’t choose to confront the Demon King head-on; sharp claws shattered the ground, sending dirt flying to obscure his rapid retreat from the Demon King.
However, the Demon King used displacement, instantly appearing before Lotcar.
The black sword blade sliced through Lotcar’s side, carving a black scar, causing blood to splatter instantly.
Lotcar was wounded yet showed no fear, opening his bloodthirsty mouth to bite the close Demon King.
Iyas grasped Lotcar’s fur tightly with one hand, raising the other to cast a Light Gun, hurling it at the Demon King.
The Demon King’s body once again bizarrely misted, deftly evading their attacks, his black sword blade swirling cold air, swinging up, instantly freezing half of Lotcar’s body.
Releasing new magic, Deceitful Emperor hesitated not, stabbing toward Lotcar’s heart.
With a "crack," from Lotcar’s back leaped Qiuye, using his beloved blade to block the Demon King’s sword.
The Demon King slightly lowered his head, countless jumping lightning leaping out from behind him, bursting onto Qiuye like ants gnawing at bones, tearing at Qiuye’s muscles.
Qiuye attempted to dodge, only to find his body suddenly difficult to move.
The Demon King raised his sword blade high, striking down at Qiuye.
In the nick of time, Yang Yu came before Deceitful Emperor, raised his head to glare at Deceitful Emperor:
"Taunt!"
Deceitful Emperor’s strike uncontrollably deviated from the intended direction, blasted toward Yang Yu, intercepted by Yang Yu’s shield.
