During this month, to prevent the Light Clan from destroying the Barrier of Light and to secure the Sea Dragon Balls, the demon gods in the Dark Moon Tower of Soguang had done their utmost.
This war couldn't end in a few days; it would be a long process. During this period, the high-ranking officials of the War Council had not considered taking action to defeat Ji Jiayu, seize the Sacred Gem Pearl, and then free up the two demon gods' combat power. However, every time they attempted to do so, the Great Prophet, the Great Heavenly God, would exert immense pressure on them. The Great Prophet's desperate approach made them both anxious and jealous, and they didn't dare to push too hard.
After all, Ji Jiayu was already a turtle in a jar, so letting him go would only allow the two demon gods to waste more energy and time.
However, no one expected Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi to hold out for so long, and even the demon gods couldn't consume them.
At this moment, an emergency meeting was being held in the Dark Moon Tower of Soguang.
"The person in charge of the Sea Dragon Ball and that woman are creating some kind of powerful force that must be stopped before they can complete it."
"You can use Ji Jiayu to distract him."
Using Ji Jiayu as bait when necessary is one of the reasons why the Light and Dark Demon Clan hasn't directly dealt with Ji Jiayu. "What if he kills her directly?"
"Then there's no choice but to go to war. We don't need to fear him; he has other demons to deal with."
"Then let's act immediately." "Zou Yan, you go."
"Hmm."
"If that horse is destroyed, it should be very easy." A demon god smiled.
Zou Xiang was the top demon god among them, only one step away from the eleventh rank.
Of course, even though it was a step, it was actually a natural moat. But if among the many tenth-level Star Gods present, who was most likely to cross that heavenly moat, it would definitely be Zou Annihilation.
After accepting the task, he didn't linger any longer and stepped directly on the cloud of black demonic energy that descended from the sky.
At this moment, the pit dug by Ji Jiayu with his field power had expanded more than tenfold, caused by the collision of the fields.
Outside the pit, countless Demon Venerables and Demon Emperors were watching.
Because the golden light curtain used to present Ji Jiayu's real-time dynamics to the Guangming Clan had long since been removed, these Demon Venerables and Demon Emperors became the primary audience for this stalemate.
Over the past month, they had thought countless times that Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi would be defeated, and they had also thought that the two Demon Gods would die countless times, but up until now, both sides had persisted.
Initially, this group of Demon Venerables and Demon Emperors only held hostility and contempt for Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi, but over time, they developed admiration for these two men.
You see, these two men were simply saints! Even though they relied on external objects to survive, while wielding their power, they must have endured tremendous pain, not to mention the psychological pressure, and they still persevered.
For this alone, they deserved the admiration of others.
However, the thoughts of this group of Demon Venerables and Demon Emperors ended there.
Many Demons Venerables and Demon Emperors looked at Zou Yan. This dark demon god had a great reputation among the light and dark demon races and could be called the god of killing. If he came out, Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi would surely die.
Under their watchful eyes, Zou Cheng descended into the deep pit. At the same time, he felt a gaze coming from afar, giving him immense pressure and making it difficult for him to move.
Even so, Zou Wei didn't stop.
At this point, neither side had a way out. If you want to fight, then fight!
However, what surprised Zou Yan was that when he arrived in front of Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi, the gaze stopped staring at him, as if it had let go of its demeanor, which made him feel even more oppressive.
After pondering for a few seconds, he put aside the distractions in his mind and looked around.
I saw that the fields of the two demon gods were riddled with holes, and they were being attacked by Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi's fields. However, after a month of consumption, Ji Jiayu and their fields had become extremely thin, and their divine power was greatly diminished.
Ji Jiayu and the two sat cross-legged on the ground, their expressions calm, and the sacred pearl in front of them was shimmering with golden light. Everything seemed normal, but in reality, their bodies were about to collapse.
Ji Jiayu and the two demon gods sensed Zou Yan's arrival almost simultaneously. The demon god was overjoyed, while Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi remained calm.
Neither side said anything, and Zou Cheng used his own field. His field was a graveyard filled with tombstones, and crows cawed in the dead ancient trees. An aura of dead silence appeared on his face, and in an instant, he forced Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi's fields to retreat, no longer entangled with the fields of the two demon gods. The two demon gods breathed a sigh of relief, but soon felt the demonic energy in their bodies surge, the result of their fields being enveloped and attacked by the sacred field for a long time.
"It's time."
The horse field quietly eroded, and Ji Jiayu turned to look at Nie Lanxi.
"Hmm." Nie Lanxi nodded at him.
In the next instant, the Sacred Light Pearl suddenly bloomed with bright golden light, temporarily forcing the horse field to retreat significantly. Immediately after, Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi's bodies turned into tiny fragments of light and merged into the golden light.
They disappeared miraculously.
Zou Yan's expression changed drastically, and he immediately and frantically urged the field, trying to intercept the Sacred Light Pearl. However, the Sacred Light Pearl transformed into a beam of light, soaring into the sky, and disappeared before the shocked eyes of the three demon gods.
Immediately, the expressions of the three demon gods turned ugly.
What's wrong here? Are Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi dead? Why did the Sacred Pearl disappear too? Zou Yan, he couldn't stop the Sacred Pearl; this was a change that shouldn't have happened!
At the same time, pale golden clouds suddenly gathered beneath the light barrier, and then golden rain fell.
After the many members of the Guangming clan who were fighting with the demon clan members were drenched in the golden rain, their lost divine power quickly recovered, and their physical strength returned to its peak.
They looked up one after another, grief in their hearts, as if something had left them. All the low-level members of the Light Clan felt this way, let alone the high-level Ming Saints and Ming Gods.
They all clearly learned a piece of information: Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi had fallen, and they had fallen along with the Sacred Light Pearl.
A group of Myojin immediately gathered in the council hall of the defense council, and they were arguing. They couldn't believe that Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi had died like this, and they couldn't believe that the Great Prophet had given up the holder and guardian of the Sacred Pearl so easily. These two were the perfect candidates after decades of careful planning. Something must have gone wrong!
And just as they were arguing about Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi, the outside world suddenly heard the sharp sound of shattering glass. The sound of shattering glass was like a wave, and its loudness was overshadowed once again.
When the sound of shattering glass rang out, all the Ming Gods were filled with excitement. The long-lost divine power poured down from the sky again!
