The Devilish Immortal Chapter 279 The Battle of Diablo: Sudden Change

One of them was the mysterious death in Ghost King Sect. This led to an announcement by the leader of the sect, Ghost-faced Immortal, “Ghost King Sect will give up its qualification in the subsequent competition and depart now!”

Dark Reign did not intend to stop this decision at all. Since the identity of Spirit Ghost was revealed, some of the top powerful figures knew that this person was the chief of Ghost King Sect, who came out and then disappeared more than 100,000 years ago. He was also the Master of Ghost-faced Immortal, the current chief of the sect.

It would indeed be strange if they still had the spirit to continue the competition, after their former leader's death.

Another matter was that several top powerful figures went to Tianshu Pavilion's territory, to ask the barbarian to hand over the woman with the Spiritual Body. Most of them tried to entice him by offering tempting prices, that would attract even a Divine Ancestor.

But there were also a few who mentioned the three great prohibitions, and asked Tianshu Pavilion to kill the Spiritual Body on the spot.

In the end, Lyu Liang refused all of the tempting prices. Those who threatened him were rejected by Tianshu Pavilion's higher authority, which then announced, “As long as Lyu Liang does not give up for one day, Tian Shu Pavilion will protect him for one day!”

After hearing this, Lyu Liang was touched. At the same time, a kind of confusion spread in him. He did not know whether he had the courage to face the people of Tian Shu Pavilion, who had been caring for him, once he accomplished his goals…

…

In the five days, Lyu Liang spent nearly 90% of his time in Heaven-Burning Xumi Formation, helping Linglong to recover from her injuries.

Yin-Hell Qi was great for her injury. With Lyu Liang's help, in less than two days, Linglong's laughter could be heard, amid the graves.

The rest of the time, Lyu Liang selectively taught Linglong some Cultivation Method, and gave her some easy-to-use magic treasures, that were mostly used for defensive purposes. He wanted the little girl to have more means to protect herself.

When Linglong triggered her Spiritual Body, the excruciating pain on her face was etched in Lyu Liang's mind. What he feared most in life was not to die himself, but for someone to die for him. Therefore, if possible, he was determined not to let Linglong experience this inhuman pain again.

During this period, Lyu Liang tried to change back to his true self several times. Linglong's reaction was much better than the first time, when she was shocked by his true identity. But afterward, she only frowned at him, instead of panicking and hiding.

Lyu Liang looked at the little girl, who was not as comfortable with him as before, and smiled bitterly. He turned back into the barbarian's appearance and came to a decision. Anyway, he had little chance to reveal his true identity in Nether Big World. So he would keep the barbarian's appearance, till he achieved his goals!

As the fifth day drew near, Lyu Liang returned to the outside world after saying goodbye to the reluctant little girl.

But he did not see the confusion and uncertainty in Linglong's eyes when he left…

…

When the intermission ended and the second part of the mining division competition resumed, the usually quiet territory of Dark Reign became noisy again. Because everyone knew that this would be the most sensational moment of the competition.

This time, there were fewer people standing on the stage than before.

Besides of Ghost King Sect's dropping out, another team from Snow Dragon Mountain also opted to drop out, due to having insufficient members. Even if they had a new member, the whole team only consisted of two people…

As a result, the third round of competition was held among the four teams only.

One of the things that bothered Lyu Liang was the clash between Yue Feng Nest Meeting and Ling Feng Cave. Ling Feng Cave's team included the golden-robed man, whom Lyu Liang was concerned about.

Although there were only two people left in the team at this time, they showed no signs of giving up. At this point, inside that man's Spirit Collecting Body, there were three souls, and he looked a bit weird.

“Next, the third round begins!” “All teams, send your members on the field!” Kong Liang roared, and two light gates emerged. The third round of the competition had officially began!

At this point, someone from Yue Feng Nest Meeting moved. He was a young man who held two knives. The man with the Spirit Collecting Body represented Ling Feng Cave.

The two did not greet each other, and started to fight the moment they came up.

The masked youth released a dazzling light from his knife. Many people could see that he had improved greatly during these five days.

On his opposite side, the golden-robed man could not defend himself against such an aggressive attack. However, the golden light in his eyes turned emotional!

At this time, there was a sudden change outside the stage!

First, above the stage where members of Dark Reign were at, several black shadows emerged. Before anyone could react, they self-detonated and turned into a horrifying whirlpool…

At the same time, similar situations occurred on the other three spectator platforms, turning the originally noisy auditorium into a horrible hellish chaos of blood and fire.

“Kid!” “That man is Nie Qingyun!” “Look!” White screamed, “The disciple from Ling Feng Cave, he committed suicide!”

Lyu Liang instantly turned his attention to the inside of the light gate, where there was a sudden change too!

The golden-robed man, who could only defend, had another soul in his body. At the same time, several golden lights were emitted from his body, and his size increased!

White concluded that the masked youth was Nie Qingyun, because of the dragon-headed knife that he had on his hand, after the initial shock. “If that was not a Dragon-Teeth Dagger, what else could it be?”

When the golden-robed man broke out, Lyu Liang could not sense the situation inside. However, judging from Nie Qingyun's retreat, he knew that the opponent was above the Heavenly Master level, after triggering the talent of Spirit Collecting Body!

Lyu Liang rushed up in an instant. He had to save Nie Qingyun, no matter what!

Just before he entered the light gate, a familiar voice hastily sounded in his mind, “Don't go in!” “That is not the real Qingyun!” “He is with me!” “It's even more dangerous here!”

Lyu Liang, who had almost entered the light gate, stopped. He made a few instantaneous flashes, and rushed towards the source of the sound! Because that was Zhu Yu, whom he had lost contact with!

The place where Zhu Yu pointed to was at a small corner at the audience platform. There stood two people; one of them was a hunchbacked elderly, which was probably Zhu Yu in disguise.

But the sight of the other person stunned him. But due to his trust in Zhu Yu, he still rushed over!

“What are you doing here!” As soon as Lyu Liang arrived, he heard Li Caiyun's angry outburst.

“Do you think I want to come over?” “Brother Zhu, what does this mean exactly?” Lyu Liang muttered doubtfully in his heart, but still kept his innocent look, and thought of how to respond.

When Li Caiyun opened her mouth to say something, her eyes were filled with horror. Then she clasped her head, as if in pain, and her body blurred. When it was clear again, she turned into Nie Qingyun, who was wearing a mask!

At the same time, the battle in the light gate came to an end!

The golden light blade of the golden robed man penetrated the young man, and several golden airflows crashed onto him. But the smile that had appeared on his face, faded. He frantically rushed out of the light gate and flew towards Lyu Liang's direction.

Nie Qingyun, whose body had been penetrated in the light gate, turned into Li Caiyun, whose aura was extremely weak.

At this point, a white figure rushed into the light gate, allowing the golden light to strike him. He hugged Li Caiyun. Though he remained emotionless, a single tear dropped from the corner of his eye…

…

God Ancestor level?

When the golden-robe person arrived, the horrifying aura from him made Lyu Liang shiver! Still, he instinctively stood in front of Nie Qingyun to protect him, unwilling to give in! Ignoring the difference in their levels, the man punched with his golden right fist!

At the same time, Nie Qingyun and Zhu Yu moved. Both attacked fearlessly, totally unafraid of death!

“Sheng Hua Glory Light!” The golden-robed man shouted resolutely. Blood-gold lights were emitted from his body, turning into golden Sword Qi, that slashed down without hesitation!

The huge gap in their strengths did not give Lyu Liang and the two, any chance to resist. The moment the golden Sword Qi appeared, it was scattered by a strong pressure.

It was not until now that Lyu Liang discovered the four of them were under a light cover, that separated them from the others. Outside the cover, countless cultivators attacked relentlessly, including the elite executors of Dark Reign and leaders of many renowned forces.

The golden-robed man's attitude was firm. He ignored Lyu Liang and Zhu Yu and produced many golden Sword Qi that slashed at Nie Qingyun.

At the time of crisis, several black lights emerged, blocking the falling golden Sword Qi.

Then, a bearded man emerged. He was also at the God Ancestor level. Judging from the golden soul spirit on top of his head, he was another lunatic, who was not afraid of death!

The emergence of this new force changed the situation on the field. Although the golden-robed man still was making fierce attacks, the bearded man raised a golden-purple shield that protected Nie Qingyun from the golden Sword Qi.

Lyu Liang wanted to help, but could not. Although he was not a target of the attack, the pressure from the Sword Qi hindered his movements.

This was a rare type of pressure, different from any five elements method. Lyu Liang could not even muster his strength to resist. This feeling was a hundred times more painful than when he had been suppressed by the Extermination Skill of Golden Light from Xuanli Evil Moon!

Just then, Nie Qingyun, who had been under protection, suddenly burst out with a roar and pushed aside the bearded man in front of him. His aura exploded to the Middle-stage of Supreme Master!

The Dragon-Teeth Dagger in his hand buzzed and turned into a huge silver knife, slashing toward the golden-robed man!

This move kills life with life!

As a result, Nie Qingyun was hit by several golden Sword Qi and flew away. Although he sat up immediately, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his aura was weak. He had lost the power to fight!

The silver knife also struck the golden-robed man, who also spewed forth golden blood. He stepped back. At first, he was shocked, but soon he became even more determined.

“No Illusion or Me, God-powered Divine light!” A woman shouted abruptly. As her voice fell, the golden cover that had been attacked by countless people, was instantly shattered!

The golden-robed man was stunned, and his eyes were filled with reluctance. Then he rushed towards Nie Qingyun, with a familiar yet unstable aura emitting from him…

But some people were faster than the golden-robed man!

Several people dressed in costumes stood in front of Nie Qingyun, almost instantly.

Next…

Next, Lyu Liang knew nothing, as the horrifying explosion wave rendered him unconscious. A self-detonation from a powerful figure at the God Ancestor level, was not something he could withstand as a small Heavenly Master.

At the last moment, a familiar voice sounded in Lyu Liang's Divine Soul, “You will be fine when I am here.”

…

At the same time, two figures emerged, one after the other, over the land at the edge of Dark Reign.

An angry little person was at the front. He was Instant Boy, one of the Extrlegal Six People who had met Lyu Liang before.

The other person was a hunchbacked man in a white robe and a white pointy hat, who remained emotionless. He had four golden irises, constantly revolving inside his eyes, how horrifying it looked!

“Jerk Dead Fire!” “Stupid Dead Fire!” “Look at what you and Phantom have done!” “It seems that this assassination will fail again!” Instant Boy pointed at the hunchbacked man, his face full of grievance, “you are chasing me…Phantom, too. You guys showed no mercy…”

“Leave and don't come back!” The hunchbacked man grimaced and stuttered, then he turned away.

At the same time, another light flashed across, revealing a black-robed man with a face obscured by black fog. He held Lyu Liang, who had fainted, in his arms.

“Yama, Instant, take care, and don't die so early!” The hunchbacked man left an intermittent sentence, and disappeared.

“Why did you bring him here, didn't you say that you will stay away from him?” Instant Boy looked at the black-robed man, confusion showing on his face.

“I brought him here to cut off ties with him. I killed an enemy of his and saved his life now, thus I have just repaid him for saving my life twice.” After the black-robed man finished speaking, he disappeared.

“Didn't you create the doppelgangers to pursue the pleasure of death?” “Why are you returning favors now?” Instant Boy smiled bitterly and shook his head, “Never mind, besides Ku Wu, the six of us had a lot of contact with human feelings. However, it feels pretty good…”

…

“Where am I…?” When Lyu Liang woke up, he was no longer at the competition field or Tianshu Pavilion's territory. At this time, he lay flat on the ground, and could only see the unique dim sky of Nether Big World.

“Awake?” A familiar voice sounded, and Lyu Liang sat up. Then he saw a weird-looking, black-robed man. He looked weird because a mass of black fog covered his face.

“Senior, did senior save me?” Lyu Liang was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered everything that had happened.

“Senior?” “Haha, if you call me that, how should I address you?” “Benefactor, long time no see.” The black-robed man smiled and the black fog on his face gradually dispersed, revealing a face hidden deep in Lyu Liang's memory…

“You, how is it possible!” When Lyu Liang saw this face clearly, he could not believe his eyes, “Li Zidao?” “Are you Li Zidao, whom I knew before?” ”

The person in front of Lyu Liang was Li Zidao, one of the Qi Refining stage couples, that Lyu Liang met when he first started his cultivation!

Although it had been a long time, Lyu Liang had never forgotten those people who had ties with him, especially this Taoist couple, who almost became his senior brothers in Sword Character Immortal Palace.

Lyu Liang's only feeling at this moment, was that it seemed like a lifetime ago.

But this kind of familiarity only existed for a moment, and he awoke. He shook his head and smiled bitterly, “Senior, you have hidden so well. By the way, Li Yun'er was also…”

Li Zidao smiled, and his figure blurred. A doppelganger appeared beside him, and that was Li Yun'er, his wife.

“It's an honor that you still remember me!” Li Yun'er bowed and Lyu Liang was at a loss as to how to respond.

But there were more surprises in store. Li Zidao's figure moved again, and another shadow appeared beside him. He bowed towards Lyu Liang and said, “Benefactor, I admire the fact that you repaid hatred with kindness.” “Stop calling me senior already!”

Lyu Liang was utterly speechless. The person in front of him turned out to be Lyu Song who made a living by cheating others. He later resisted Beishan Xiao, together with him!

“You and all these, what's going on?” “Which one is your real body?” Lyu Liang was confused. These three people whom he had met earlier, were just ordinary people. It was only now that he discovered that they were all doppelgangers of a mysterious, powerful figure!

“The real body?” “I also want to know which one is my real body. Perhaps, Li Zidao can be regarded as the real body. After all, I am most impressed by what this doppelganger has gone through.” Li Zidao smiled and stared at Lyu Liang. “My real identity if Yama Zhina from the Extrlegal Six People!” “I also want to know which one is my real body. Perhaps, Li Zidao can be regarded as the real body. After all, I am most impressed by what this doppelganger has gone through.”
