Li Yi threw the injured, unconscious Sky Demon to the ground of the defense line he was in charge of. This sudden noise immediately attracted the attention of some people, as the aura of a Sky Demon was particularly conspicuous, making it impossible not to be wary. "Someone, go inform Xiao Jianguo, tell him that I’ve completed my mission and that he should come to take custody of this Sky Demon." He spoke up. Stationed on the defense line, Zhang Tianfan, Lin Qi, Xu Changke, and others were staring at the Sky Demon on the ground with some astonishment. "This is... a Sky Demon?" The Sky Demon’s form was similar to a human, only taller and stronger, with some traces of demon beasts, such as scale armor on the skin and beast hair on the face. This wasn’t due to incomplete transformation, but rather the unique characteristic of the Sky Demons in the Demon God Realm, retaining some demonic traces. "I’ll notify Xiao Jianguo." Immediately, an Evolver swiftly flew away. After all, Li Yi was currently the one in charge of this section of the defense line, and with his strength, his words naturally commanded obedience. "The aura doesn’t look too strong. If it were me, dealing with it wouldn’t be difficult. Although I couldn’t capture it so easily, in a life-and-death battle, it should be a fifty-fifty chance," Zhang Tianfan commented while looking at the unconscious Sky Demon. "Don’t be careless, this Sky Demon is injured. Didn’t you see the gaping wound on its waist? Also, the residual power is preventing the wound from healing, so the aura revealed in such a severely injured state is naturally not strong." Xu Changke observed and then remarked. Lin Qi approached and said, "But it’s not as dangerous as imagined. If I encountered it, I wouldn’t turn and flee." "The Sky Demons’ life force is truly tenacious. It’s in this state, yet still not dead. Indeed, the advantage of this race is hard to compensate for even through evolution." Someone marveled at the terrifying life force of the Sky Demon. Li Yi looked at these people discussing the Sky Demon and didn’t care. He was just waiting for Xiao Jianguo to come over, hand over the defense line, and then leave himself. After that, he wanted to take a trip to the Barbaric World. Not only to repay the favor to Merchant Lord Xiu Xiang but also to use that ancient land to nourish his body, nurture the Divine Blood, and absorb the Five Qi, so that his body and realm could be tempered to a balanced state. Only then could he lay a solid foundation for the future Five Qi Chaoyuan. This time, Li Yi had enough strength to venture into the Barbaric World, unlike the first time when he was almost caught and sold as a slave. Moreover, even if he encountered an uncontrollable danger, he could open the Cross-border Gate and bring Xuan Yuezi from the Incense Fire God world to aid him. However, just as he was thinking this. The Sky Demon, who was originally lying on the ground unconscious, abruptly opened its eyes at this moment. Seeing several human Evolvers surrounding him, the Sky Demon was instantly furious. When had a proud Sky Demon ever suffered such humiliation, especially being scrutinized like merchandise by a group of weak humans? Since it had come to this point, he might as well take down a few of them. The Sky Demon’s eyes suddenly turned blood-red, his whole body surging with demonic power. Then, his muscles bulged, and the Dao Trace in his bloodline was activated and gathered into a sharp blade that instantly shattered the mana restraining his body, hands, and feet. "Hmm?" Li Yi immediately noticed this scene. He had remained here, not leaving because he was uneasy about this seriously injured Sky Demon. Just when he was about to strike the Sky Demon down, he saw the nearby people standing there, eager to try, and immediately stopped. Since these people hadn’t fought a Sky Demon before, he might as well take this opportunity to let them experience the Sky Demon’s strength, to prevent them from recklessly losing their lives on the battlefield due to their carelessness in the future. Li Yi stayed to watch, intending to take this opportunity to test and hone them. "A seriously injured Sky Demon dare seek a doomed fight, courting death." Zhang Tianfan suddenly shouted, drawing his Battle Blade from his back. Shortly after, Cosmic Energy gathered, and an astonishing blade light condensed on the Battle Blade. But suddenly, the Sky Demon was already at his front. "What?" Zhang Tianfan’s pupils suddenly shrank. This speed was too fast. So fast that it was almost impossible to react. "Die!" The Sky Demon roared, eyes blood-red, demonic power surging, merely lifting his foot to kick towards Zhang Tianfan. The air exploded mid-air, deafening, the ground trembling. Despite being seriously injured, the Sky Demon displayed immense strength at this moment. "Careful." Upon seeing this scene, Lin Qi was greatly alarmed, and the Flying Sword at his waist unsheathed itself, intending to save Zhang Tianfan. With this blow, Zhang Tianfan was sent flying, like a cannonball shot out, flying for dozens of kilometers, finally crashing heavily into the earth’s depths. He spat out blood profusely, his body suffering severe injuries. Luckily, he didn’t die because at the moment he was kicked flying, a five-colored mana enveloped him, dissipating most of the force. "Is that it?" Li Yi gazed down at the scene, shaking his head involuntarily. Though Lin Qi’s flying sword was sharp, this Sky Demon’s combat ability was too strong. At the cost of allowing his body to be torn open, he immediately charged back towards Zhang Tianfan after sending him flying. An astounding killing intent enveloped with terrifying demonic power surged forth, triggering the soul of Lin Qi, the Evolver, to scream warnings madly. A scent of death seemed to permeate the surroundings. "Not good." Lin Qi was shocked, not expecting the Sky Demon to be this fierce, enduring her Treasure Flying Sword just to seize this counterattack opportunity. She wanted to once again control the flying sword to strike back. However, the opponent’s rush was even faster. "Damn it." At this moment, Lin Qi disregarded everything else, immediately channeling the energy within her body, attempting to block the strike. Lin Qi was sent flying directly into the sky, feeling her bones shatter, her organs wounded, blood gushing from her mouth and nose. She instantly lost the ability to fight; the Treasure Flying Sword she prided herself on fell helplessly to the ground. "This Sky Demon is too powerful. Jointly subdue him. He’s severely wounded, the strength he’s unleashing is limited and he can’t hold on for long," Xu Changke yelled immediately upon witnessing this scene. He now understood just how strong the Sky Demon’s power was. Zhang Tianfan and Lin Qi didn’t even have the chance to exchange blows, they were defeated in one strike by the Sky Demon, even under the condition of being gravely injured. It’s unimaginable how Li Yi could survive and counterattack amidst the siege of three Sky Demons. The other Evolvers on the frontline didn’t retreat, instead rushing forward to join Xu Changke in confronting the enemy. Yet the Sky Demon himself was already at the end of his rope, unwilling to suffer humiliation, hence explosively unleashed all his power in despair. After two strikes, he coughed up a large mouthful of blood as his strength drained at an unimaginable speed. Not waiting for Xu Changke and others to act, the Sky Demon went limp, collapsing onto the ground again. He gasped heavily, glaring furiously at Li Yi sitting above on a Xiangyun. From start to finish, he knew this person was watching everything. He understood that there was no escape for him no matter what, regrettably, his strength dwindled too much just now, otherwise, he could have taken those two human Evolvers down with him. "Damn." He cursed angrily. Xu Changke was stunned to see the Sky Demon fall again. "Stop now, this Sky Demon can no longer retaliate. He’s only hanging on by a thread, you can’t kill him now." Li Yi spoke slowly, as the Xiangyun descended. "I’ve already said that you are no match for the Sky Demon. If you encounter one alone, you’d better run. The strength he just showed was less than sixty percent of his peak. Even so, you couldn’t defeat him. If he wasn’t so badly injured that he couldn’t sustain a long fight, you wouldn’t be able to stop him." Hearing this, Xu Changke and others immediately felt their faces flush. Having not fought a Sky Demon before, they were full of confidence. Only when truly facing him did they understand how fierce this guy was. "Bring Zhang Tianfan and that woman named Lin Qi back. They are still alive, just injured, and need time to recover," Li Yi continued. Two Evolvers flew off, returning shortly with the severely injured and disheveled Zhang Tianfan and Lin Qi. At this moment, looking again at the Sky Demon lying on the ground, they were both astonished and fearful, their eyes now much more clear. No longer possessing the previous arrogance and confidence. Because they truly went to the ghost gate and back. Without Li Yi’s intervention, they would already be two corpses. "A heavily injured Sky Demon, and its strength was still so terrifying. At its peak, it could definitely kill me in one move." Zhang Tianfan endured his injured body, trembling slightly inside. "Next time we encounter a Sky Demon, in a one-on-one situation we must run." "Thank you, Li Yi, for your help." Lin Qi knew she couldn’t have defended against the Sky Demon’s attack at all; it was surely a master interfering secretly. The most likely person here was Li Yi. "Just letting you have some early practice. Although you paid some price, it will be a lesson well-learned, at least you won’t lose your lives senselessly in the future," Li Yi said. "No need to thank me, though your personalities are not likable, your willingness to fight for Earth and be present on the front line is reason enough for me to lend a hand. As for the future, it depends on your own efforts." "Thank you." The others also expressed their gratitude simultaneously. Being able to see the Sky Demon’s actions up close gave them a clear understanding of the enemy’s strength. This understanding could indeed be life-saving at critical times. Li Yi captured a Sky Demon, broadening their experience, significantly helping them. "Xiao Jianguo has arrived." Then Li Yi sensed a familiar aura approaching. It was time for him to leave here too.
