The Immortal Emperor Reborn: Accompanying My Child on the Extraordinary Journey

Chapter 89: The Conspiracy of the Cultivation World

The sword flashed like a dragon, with a sharp edge going straight to the Demon King's vitals. Seeing this, the Demon King's eyes flashed with disdain, and he turned his body slightly, easily dodging the attack.

“Hmph, a mere human dares to fight this king?” The Demon King sneered and leaped up like a tiger descending from the mountains, pouncing towards Yun Che.

Yun Che's heart trembled, but he didn't retreat. He turned his body to the side, and swept his long sword across. The sword light was like a net, completely blocking the demon king's attack. The two of them exchanged dozens of moves in an instant, sword shadows intersecting each other.

"Yun Che, be careful!" At this moment, an anxious cry was heard. Yun Che turned his head and saw Xia Qingyue looking at him with a worried look on her face.

Yun Che felt a warm feeling in his heart, but the battle didn't allow him to be distracted. He took a deep breath and returned his attention to the Demon King. The Demon King was now completely enraged, his attacks becoming increasingly ferocious, each move carrying the power to destroy heaven and earth.

Yun Che didn't dare to be careless. His body was as fast as lightning, constantly weaving in and out of the demon king's attacks, looking for an opportunity to counterattack. Finally, during one exchange, Yun Che found the demon king's weakness. With a single swing of his longsword, a brilliant sword energy instantly burst out, striking directly at the demon king's heart.

"Ah!" The demon king screamed and retreated violently. Yun Che took the opportunity to pursue him. His long sword was like a rainbow, leaving bloody marks on the demon king's body.

“Yun Che, well done!” Xia Qingyue couldn’t help but cheer loudly upon seeing this.

However, at this moment, a powerful demonic aura suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping both Yun Che and Xia Qingyue. Yun Che was startled and looked up, only to see a gigantic demonic beast suspended in mid-air, its eyes like torches, staring intently at him.

“Is this… the Demon King?” Yun Che’s heart sank. He had never expected that this demon beast was actually at the Demon King level.

“Hmph, a mere human dares to hurt someone from my demon clan?” The Demon King snorted coldly, and with a flick of his body, he pounced towards Yun Che and Xia Qingyue.

Yun Che and Xia Qingyue exchanged a glance, each seeing determination in the other's eyes. They knew that in this battle, they had to give it their all.

The two of them suddenly rose up, attacking the Demon Emperor from the left and right. Yun Che swung his longsword, its light like a dragon, leaving bloody streaks on the Demon Emperor's body; while Xia Qingyue formed hand seals with her hands, continuously bombarding the Demon Emperor with powerful spells.

However, the Demon King was far too powerful. Although Yun Che and Xia Qingyue's attacks were fierce, they were unable to inflict any substantial damage on the Demon King. Instead, every attack from the Demon King filled them with fear.

“We can’t go on like this. We must find the Demon King’s weakness.” Yun Che said to Xia Qingyue while fighting.

Xia Qingyue nodded. She quickly formed hand seals with her hands, and launched powerful spells at the Demon Emperor, attempting to distract him. Yun Che, on the other hand, took the opportunity to wander around the Demon Emperor, searching for any flaws.

Finally, during a clash, Yun Che discovered a tiny flaw in the Demon King. Delighted, he swung his sword, and a brilliant sword energy instantly erupted, striking the Demon King's vital point.

"Ah!" The Demon Emperor screamed miserably and retreated violently. Yun Che seized the opportunity to pursue him, his long sword slashing like a rainbow, leaving bloody streaks on the Demon Emperor's body. Xia Qingyue also seized the opportunity to unleash powerful spells, continuously bombarding the Demon Emperor.

Under the joint attack of the two, the Demon King finally couldn't hold on any longer. After letting out a shrill scream, he fell to the ground with a loud bang.

“Huh…it’s finally over.” Yun Che wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Qingyue also smiled. She looked at Yun Che, her eyes filled with gratitude and admiration: "Yun Che, thank you."

Yun Che smiled faintly and shook his head: "Do we still need to talk about this between us?"

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared before them. Yun Che and Xia Qingyue were both startled. Looking up, they saw an old man in a black robe gazing at them with a sinister expression.

"Are you Yun Che and Xia Qingyue?" the old man said coldly.

Yun Che's heart sank. He hadn't expected this old man to appear here. He looked at the old man warily and nodded, "Yes, we are Yun Che and Xia Qingyue."

Upon hearing this, the old man smiled grimly, "Very good, you killed the Demon King. We must settle this account."

Yun Che and Xia Qingyue exchanged glances, each seeing determination in the other's eyes. They knew this old man was definitely not easy to deal with, but they also wouldn't back down.

“Hmph, you want to settle a score? Then come on!” Yun Che snorted coldly, swung his sword, and attacked the old man.

Seeing this, the old man moved and dodged Yun Che's attack. He waved his hands, and black mist instantly enveloped Yun Che and Xia Qingyue.

Yun Che and Xia Qingyue were shocked. They hadn't expected this old man to be so powerful. They quickly mobilized their magic power to resist the encroaching black mist.

However, the black mist was like a maggot clinging to their bones, constantly eroding their mana. Yun Che and Xia Qingyue both felt dizzy and their mana was constantly draining away.

“Oh no, this mist is poisonous!” Xia Qingyue’s expression changed, and she quickly reminded Yun Che.

Yun Che's heart trembled upon hearing this. He took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and then rushed towards the old man. He knew that only by getting close to the old man could he break this situation.

Seeing this, the old man's eyes flashed with disdain. He waved his hands, and streams of black mist instantly surged towards Yun Che. However, Yun Che seemed to have noticed nothing and continued to rush towards the old man.

Just as the black mist was about to touch Yun Che, Yun Che suddenly flashed and appeared behind the old man. He swung his sword, and a brilliant sword energy instantly burst out, striking the old man's back.

The old man hadn't expected Yun Che to be so cunning. He could only hastily dodge sideways. However, even so, his sleeve was still cut by the sword energy.

“Hmph, you have some skills.” The old man snorted coldly. He waved his hands and black mist surged towards Yun Che again.

Yun Che didn't dare to be careless. His figure moved like lightning, constantly weaving through the black mist, searching for an opportunity to strike back. Finally, during a clash, Yun Che found the old man's weakness. He swung his long sword, and a brilliant sword energy instantly burst out, striking the old man's vital point.

The old man hadn't expected Yun Che to be so decisive. He could only hastily dodge sideways. However, even so, the sword energy still cut a gash on his shoulder.

"Ah!" The old man screamed and retreated violently. Yun Che took the opportunity to pursue him, his long sword like a rainbow, continuously attacking the old man.

Seeing the situation was not good, the old man waved his hands, and a black light curtain instantly appeared in front of him. Yun Che's long sword slammed into the light curtain, making a deafening roar.

However, the black light curtain was like an indestructible barrier, blocking all of Yun Che's attacks. Yun Che was shocked. He had not expected this old man to be so powerful.

At this moment, Xia Qingyue suddenly shouted loudly: "Yun Che, be careful!"

Yun Che's heart trembled. He looked up and saw a black beam of light shooting towards him. He quickly dodged to the side, but even so, his left arm was still grazed by the beam, causing a sharp pain.

"Damn it!" Yun Che cursed, gritting his teeth. He looked at the old man, his eyes filled with anger and murderous intent.

Seeing this, the old man smiled grimly, "Hmph, a mere human dares to go against me? Today, I'll show you what true strength is!"

After saying this, the old man waved his hands, and black mist once again enveloped Yun Che and Xia Qingyue. Yun Che and Xia Qingyue both felt dizzy and their magic power was constantly draining away.

“We can’t go on like this. We must find a way to break this situation.” Yun Che said to Xia Qingyue while resisting the erosion of the black mist.

Xia Qingyue nodded, her hands quickly forming seals as she launched powerful spells at the old man. However, these spells were completely blocked by the black light curtain.

“What should we do?” Xia Qingyue looked at Yun Che anxiously.

Yun Che gritted his teeth and looked towards the old man, a flicker of determination in his eyes. “There’s only one way left. Let’s join forces and attack his true form!”

Xia Qingyue's heart trembled upon hearing this. She knew that this decision meant they would be taking a huge risk. However, she also knew that this was their only chance to break the deadlock.

"Alright!" Xia Qingyue nodded. She quickly formed seals with her hands, and powerful spells were continuously blasted towards the old man. Yun Che took the opportunity to rush towards the old man's body.

Seeing this, the old man showed a trace of disdain on his face: "Humph, you want to attack my body? You are still far from it!"

After saying this, the old man waved his hands, and streams of black mist instantly surged towards Yun Che and Xia Qingyue. However, Yun Che and Xia Qingyue seemed not to notice and continued to rush towards the old man.

Just as the black mist was about to reach them, Yun Che and Xia Qingyue simultaneously launched powerful attacks. Yun Che swung his sword, and a brilliant sword energy instantly burst forth; while Xia Qingyue formed hand seals with her hands, and a powerful spell bombarded the old man.

"Boom!" A loud noise was heard, and the old man's figure suddenly retreated several feet, his face turning extremely pale. Yun Che and Xia Qingyue also took the opportunity to break free from the restraints of the black mist.

“Cough… cough…” The old man coughed twice. He looked at Yun Che and Xia Qingyue with eyes filled with resentment and unwillingness: “You… you actually dared to hurt me? I will never let you go!”

Yun Che and Xia Qingyue exchanged glances, each seeing determination and resolve in the other's eyes. They knew this old man would never give up. However, they also wouldn't back down.

“Hmph, you don’t want to let us go? Then let’s see if you have the ability to do so!” Yun Che snorted coldly, swung his sword, and attacked the old man.

The old man saw this and moved
