Lin Yi's attempt to control the Corpse Kings with the Fu Xi Talisman failed due to insufficient divine power. As Luo Bingxin thought she was safe, Lin Yi launched a surprise attack, striking her soul and then immobilizing her with a gravity skill. He then used his Black Ice skill, freezing her and rendering her unable to resist. However, before Lin Yi could fully capitalize on his advantage, the Drought Demon intervened, grabbing Lin Yi's arm with a burning hand.

Lin Yi raised his head, looking at that somewhat unfamiliar yet incredibly familiar face, feeling quite a bit of shock inside.

With the effect of [Elemental Affinity], he is almost immune to fire attribute damage. Combined with other damage reduction skills and his own resistance, making Lin Yi injured is incredibly difficult, especially with such a simple contact.

“Drought Demon, I didn’t expect it, that you would break free from my clones’ siege so quickly; I truly underestimated you.

Lin Yi said, attempting to pull his hand from the Drought Demon’s grip.

Unexpectedly, his superior attributes seemed to have little effect in front of Drought Demon. Those skeletal, pale hands looked fleshless yet functioned like clamps, firmly restricting Lin Yi’s movements.

Looking at Drought Demon’s face exuding a cold murderous intent, Lin Yi could clearly read Drought Demon’s intention from her expression: You love using your Gravity Manipulation Skills to bully Luo Bingxin, don’t you? You better not withdraw your hand now, ’cause I want to see if I can burn this arm of yours off alive.

Pain was something Lin Yi could endure, and the burn damage could be instantly healed to full health thanks to his powerful recovery abilities. But being in such a passive state made Lin Yi somewhat unhappy.

So, Lin Yi unleashed all his power, trying to wrench his hand free from Drought Demon’s grip with brute force.

Lin Yi’s attributes are outstanding among strong peers of the same level. Even Upper-Rank Gods with a higher Divine Power Level cannot compare with Lin Yi in basic attributes.

Yet, against Drought Demon, Lin Yi’s superior attributes seemed ineffective.

Don’t be fooled by Drought Demon’s slender hands, instilling a feeling of muscular weakness; no matter how hard Lin Yi exerted, he couldn’t pull his hand out.

“What’s wrong, kid? Did you think nobody could restrain you? Just by relying on those few clones, you could defeat us? Still want to use Luo Bingxin to threaten us? Do you think you’re worthy?”

Just as Drought Demon’s words fell, the already freed Jiang Chen transformed into a black stream, suddenly slamming in front of Luo Bingxin, blocking the inevitable path of Six Paths Unification Slash.

Lin Yi knew how formidable Jiang Chen’s Defense is. Should that scarlet slash land on him, it would surely not affect him at all.

At this moment, Lin Yi couldn’t help but complain inwardly.

What the hell is Immortal King doing? Is he really planning to let me die at the hands of the Four Corpse Kings?

With my current strength, even with Fu Xi Talisman at my side, it’s hard to deal with this second stage Four Corpse King. Moreover, things have already been handed to the Immortal King’s clone; the only plan left now is to let Wo Zhiqi step in to assist me.

Activating the item [Infinite Ball], he refreshed the cooldown of his skills, Lin Yi re-entered the [Supreme Ascension] state, allowing his body to Elementalize once again.

In this state, the high-temperature damage from Drought Demon was largely reduced. Still, Lin Yi could feel discomfort in his arm, though the pain was significantly diminished.

Taking advantage of Elementalization, Lin Yi effortlessly extracted his hand.

Seeing Lin Yi break free, Drought Demon’s heart couldn’t help but tremble slightly.

This kid, does his skill have no cooldown?

As a master of the Fire Element, Drought Demon is very aware of what level Lin Yi’s Supreme Ascension qualifies as a Fire Skills, knowing that higher-level skills need longer cooldowns. Like Lin Yi’s Supreme Ascension skill, requires at least several hours of cooldown.

From the release of Lin Yi’s skill to its cancellation just now, how much time has passed? Who would’ve thought his skill cooldown would recover so quickly?

Bang!

The scarlet slash accurately landed on Jiang Chen.

Containing the Power of Six Paths Reincarnation which can sever causality, yet when hitting Jiang Chen, it was completely harmless.

When the slash landed, it was like a thousand-ton punch falling on a pile of cotton; no matter how domineering the force was, it was absorbed completely the instant it made contact, raising not even a ripple, and the thin layer of frost on Jiang Chen’s surface was merely slightly dislodged.

Truly tough!

Lin Yi couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

Luckily, I received guidance from the Ancient Great God at Nuwa Spirit; otherwise, opposing these Four Corpse Kings would’ve indeed been a foolish decision.

“Jiang Chen, first take the girl and that Old Xuan away; the battle here is over, and the subsequent fight isn’t something they can join.”

“Ying Gou and Hou Qing, block the guy with the Fu Xi Talisman for me, don’t let him block my way, give me a chance, I’ll kill this kid right here, avoid him causing us trouble in the future.”

Drought Demon saw Lin Yi’s potential.

She vaguely sensed that the ultimate fall of the Four Corpse Kings and Luo Bingxin had something to do with Immortal King, but not directly. The most direct reason traced back to Lin Yi.

The future of the Four Corpse Kings is already clear.

The Immortal King with the Fu Xi Talisman, wanting to annihilate them, it’s merely a matter of time.

“Kid, you’re too dangerous. Fall here then.”

Crimson flames enveloped Drought Demon’s entire body, her silhouette seemingly flashed behind Lin Yi.

Once again appearing in human form, five sharp claws had already gathered on Drought Demon’s fingertips.

A strike from Drought Demon, with claws exuding extreme heat, shredded the space around her and illuminated the space before Lin Yi.

Such high temperature!

[Eye of All-Seeing] couldn’t see through Drought Demon’s flames, but it could discern the temperature of flames on her body.

Although Lin Yi successfully Elementalized at this moment and shared the same element as Drought Demon’s move, it couldn’t counteract Drought Demon’s temperature.

Just as Lin Yi planned to use [Unbreakable] and [Immovable] skills to forcibly block Drought Demon’s attack, Immortal King’s figure appeared right in front of him.

Above Immortal King clone’s head, Fu Xi Talisman quietly floated, appearing without any offensive strength, but the unique Divine Power given off by the golden light made even Lin Yi feel unfamiliar.

When Fu Xi Talisman was in my possession, its effectiveness wasn’t this proactive; looks like what the Ancient Great God said was completely true.

Easily catching Drought Demon’s claws, Immortal King clone’s face was full of elegance and composure, the intense heat that caused Lin Yi pain even in Elementalization was nothing in front of Immortal King.

“Heh, Drought Demon, you indeed have grown some guts, making a move against my people right in front of me, truly disrespecting me.”

After Immortal King finished speaking, Fu Xi Talisman immediately followed with an attack.

Not far away, Jiang Chen was ready to follow Drought Demon’s orders, preparing to take Luo Bingxin and Old Xuan away from the battle scene. To protect Luo Bingxin and Old Xuan as much as possible, Jiang Chen specially manipulated the extreme ice shield on himself, transferring it onto Luo Bingxin and Old Xuan, aiming to reduce the damage they might suffer as much as possible.
