Chapter 1098 The end of the road

The Jade Cauldron Command Arrow is one of the most important treasures of the Imperial Palace for Sacrificing to Heaven.

From ancient times to the present, the tribal system evolved into city-states, and then into a unified system. The birth of a supreme ruler marked the end of the fragmented state of humankind.

You are the supreme and number one person under heaven, possessing famous artifacts and ruling over billions of living beings.

In addition to being recognized by the Nine Tripods, there are several important artifacts that have been passed down from ancient times, serving as orthodox ritual and sacrificial vessels.

The Jade Cauldron Command Arrow is one of them, but isn't this item in the hands of the feudal lord?

Why did it fall into the hands of Consort Li, who then sent her maid to deliver it to Zhou You?

By the way, when was the lockdown on the sacrificial palace lifted?
There were too many questions, and Lian Feihong and the others didn't know what to say, their eyes fixed on the jade tripod parts.

I had heard long ago that when Zhou You served as a guard at the Imperial Palace, he was highly regarded by Consort Li, but their relationship ended thereafter.

But who would have thought that Consort Li would value Zhou You so much, sending him the Jade Cauldron Token at such a crucial moment? What was she planning to do?
Lian Feihong felt a sense of unease. Could it be that they were trying to poach his girlfriend?
Zhou You grabbed the jade cauldron token and instantly understood Consort Li's meaning: this item was used to sever the inner demon ring.

Although he was physically uninvolved, he was far more aware of the situation than anyone else. This was a siege targeting the Heart Demon Ring, and all forces had joined in.

The small cauldron in Zhou Suanni's hand was, unsurprisingly, the work of the Golden Immortal Sect in the capital.

Isn't the universally acknowledged number one Golden Immortal Daoist the Chongyang Gong, who is hiding in the Heaven-Sacrificing Palace?

and also……

The Martial Arts Monument suddenly appeared, breaking through the encirclement of numerous demonic soldiers and powerful lords. The Nine Cauldrons Mantra it used could only be mastered by the royal families of past dynasties.

Without asking further, he must have colluded with the remnants of the previous dynasty.

The composition of the remnants of the previous dynasty was very complex. It consisted of the clansmen of the feudal lords of past dynasties. For example, once a feudal lord was deposed, the royal uncle, the princess of Mianzhu, and a group of gentlemen became the 'remnants of the previous dynasty'.

The remnants of the previous dynasty had little place to stay on land, so they basically had only one way out: to go to sea!

That's right, many members of the Sea Warriors are remnants of the previous dynasty.

The Martial Arts Monument has colluded with such people, and the Nine Cauldrons True Words are their way of using the Martial Arts Monument to deliver the final blow to the Heart Demon Ring.

That's not all, the third game-winning goal is coming.

The jade cauldron token given by Consort Li came from the sacrificial palace, but it may not necessarily be the will of the emperor.

"The Demon Ring will perish today!"

Zhou You gently stroked the jade cauldron and arrow, and sighed, "So many people wanted him dead. As the saying goes, when a thousand people point fingers at someone, he will die without illness. In this vast world, there is no place for him to hide."

A sense of desolation rose in his heart. Even though the Inner Demon Ring was just a disguise for him, he still felt a sense of despair at the end of his rope.

Why are so many forces united against the Heart Demon Ring, willing to spare other demon soldiers and powerful lords in order to completely annihilate it?
It's because, under the current circumstances, the emergence of the Supreme Demon Weapon does not align with the interests of any party.

Lian Feihong and Da Xingchang, having learned of Consort Li's intention in sending the command arrow, no longer tried to dissuade Zhou You. After all, even with the Half-Saint Yin Blade and the Sacred Artifact 'Double Pupils,' having the Jade Cauldron Command Arrow would greatly increase their chances of winning.

Not far away came the sound of the sky cracking and the earth collapsing, so loud that people were deafened and their minds went blank.

"The Demon Soldier Village can no longer hold out; the Heart Demon Ring is on the verge of collapse."

It turns out that the Demon Soldier Village was originally summoned by more than twenty powerful demon soldiers to trap the Heart Demon Ring.

However, due to the power of the inner demon ring, he broke through to the Earth Sect in the face of battle, which instead corrupted the Demon Soldier Village and turned it into his own territory, the Ring World.

The fact that Demon Soldier Village is on the verge of collapse means that the power of the Heart Demon Ring has weakened to the extreme and can no longer maintain the situation.

Many people have a far-sighted perspective and have seen through the phenomena to the true nature of the inner demons' exhaustion.

pat!

A large fragment of the sky fell, completely opening up the space between the inside and outside, allowing everyone to see what was happening. "Why...why didn't you kill me?"

At close range, the Martial Arts Monument did not dodge or retreat, as if Zou had been prepared to face the wrath of the Inner Demon Ring.

But the Heart Demon Ring didn't kill him; its eyes remained expressionless, and its gaze held a hint of pity.

"..."

Holding the Zhou Suanni, whose head had been completely devoured, Yin Hen whispered to the Martial Arts Stele, "I'll eat you!"

The betrayal of the Martial Arts Monument completely completed the final link in the deadly scheme.

Although the inner demon ring could still hold on, the ring world could not be maintained and shattered into pieces, collapsing and peeling away.

"..."

Wu'er clutched Yin Hen's clothes and breathed her last.

Yin Hen was covered in wounds, his still-growing muscles and bones exposed to the air. He wanted to fight desperately but couldn't muster the strength.

He heard the Heart Demon Ring's voice in his ear, "Yin Hen, don't be hasty, I know what you're thinking?"

The Heart Demon Ring scanned its surroundings, finally fixing its gaze on the direction of the Fallen Demon Hammer. "Come here!"

The Fallen Demon sneered, "You still want to fight? Aren't you afraid of getting hurt?"

No matter who the Inner Demon Ring hits, the injury will fall on the user, which can be fatal when facing a siege.

After all, there are too many enemies. By trading blows, the accumulated damage can destroy the Heart Demon Ring countless times.

With a single move, the Demon Ring grasped the Ice Hand and traversed the jungle where numerous demon soldiers intersected. He was stabbed and cut, leaving him covered in wounds, but he paid no heed and instantly grabbed the tip of the Fallen Demon Halberd.

The Fallen Demon was not afraid, and stood tall with his chest puffed out, "Come on!"

He was certain that the Inner Demon Ring valued its reputation and would not kill him.

With a soft thud, the Demon-Slaying Halberd pierced the body of the War Lord, piercing him from head to tail like a grilled fish. It was then carried by the Heart Demon Ring to Yin Hen's feet. "Hating someone doesn't necessarily mean you have to tear them apart alive. You can use some civilized methods."

Yin Hen looked at the wounds and bleeding on the Heart Demon Ring, nodded seriously, and grabbed the Fallen Demon Halberd.

"You little beast, what do you think you're doing?"

The Fallen Demon roared in fury and helplessness, then Yin Hen used his fingernails to tear it into pieces of flesh.

Wow!
Forces from all directions gradually gathered around. They noticed the weakening and bleeding of the Heart Demon Ring and knew the time had come.

Behind Dongfang Daqian was the sacred artifact 'Dawn'. He said loudly, "Heart Demon Ring, you are utterly wicked, why don't you submit to death?"

He gained fame for killing the Barbarian Hammer, and if he can kill the Heart Demon Ring, he will surely leave all other competitors far behind.

"And I……"

The Inner Demon Ring exhaled, "You think you've won?"

The next moment, a terrifying scene unfolded.

With a blink of an eye, the traitor beside the Heart Demon Ring exploded on the spot.

That's not the most terrifying part, because this move was originally aimed at the Qi Demon Gourd, and the result was purely a mistake that hit the secondary target.

Startled, the Qi Demon Gourd immediately hid in the void, leaving behind only large pieces of broken remains.

The other demon lords thought, "Has he gone mad? Does the Heart Demon Ring want to take someone down with him? There's no way I could have been chosen by him."
