Chapter 488: Long-Distance Combat

Li Xiaojun did not expect that his understanding differed so greatly from that of others.

His divine sense perception range was comparable to that of a Da Luo Golden Immortal, yet he always thought this was just the level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal.

He recalled that when he was in the Immortal Realm, with his cultivation level at the Profound Immortal Realm, he had invested in a Golden Immortal of the Beast Tribe, but that Golden Immortal had never appeared.

Previously, Li Xiaojun believed his cultivation level to be the weakest among peers since it was all gained through system points.

However, it now seemed that his combat strength might not be the weakest at his level.

Of course, he had never fought against peers at the same level, so he did not know for sure.

After realizing his divine sense perception range was comparable to that of a Da Luo Golden Immortal, Li Xiaojun had a simple thought.

That thought was to fly a kite.

Since his divine sense perception was farther than that of the demon’s Taiyi Golden Immortals, this meant he could launch an attack entirely outside their divine sense perception.

In such a situation, it would be very easy for him to strike, while it would be extremely difficult for them to do the same.

Moreover, Li Xiaojun had comprehended the rule of space comparable to that of a Da Luo Golden Immortal.

In the entire Kunlun Realm, very few beings could comprehend the rule of space. For instance, neither the Da Luo Golden Immortals nor the Taiyi Golden Immortals of the Immortal Tribes and demon tribes had comprehended it.

Li Xiaojun could be considered the only being in the entire Kunlun Realm who comprehended the rule of space at a level above Taiyi.

The rule of space allowed Li Xiaojun to appear within the divine sense perception range at any time, giving him extremely fast speed, so beings at the same level as him could hardly hope to touch the hem of his clothes.

In addition to the rule of space, Li Xiaojun had also comprehended the rule of time, allowing him to turn any attack aimed at him into slow motion.

Unless the rules contained in the opponent’s attack surpassed Li Xiaojun’s domain of time, which exceeded fifty percent, only attacks from Da Luo Golden Immortals could harm him.

Furthermore, the rule of time could also work in tandem with the rule of space to unleash powerful attacks or have strong defenses.

So, upon realizing that his divine sense perception range was comparable to that of a Da Luo Golden Immortal, Li Xiaojun felt no hesitation.

He prepared to take action against all the Demon Golden Immortals.

In the next moment, a Golden Immortal level flying sword appeared before Li Xiaojun.

Although this flying sword was only at the Golden Immortal level, it was crafted from materials found in a black hole. It might be slightly lacking against Taiyi Golden Immortals but was more than sufficient to deal with ordinary demons.

After the flying sword appeared, Li Xiaojun quickly infused it with immortal essence energy from the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm.

As the whole flying sword exuded powerful sword energy and killing intent, Li Xiaojun swiftly formed a hand sign and then waved his hand, sending the flying sword directly into the space.

In the next moment, without a sound, a golden flying sword suddenly shot out from the space beside a Demon Golden Immortal, piercing through the Demon Golden Immortal’s head before he could react.

Under such circumstances, the Demon Golden Immortal was as good as dead.

After the Demon Golden Immortal was killed by the flying sword, it instantly vanished.

In the next moment, the flying sword reappeared next to another Demon Golden Immortal.

Poof!

A crisp sound echoed as the second Demon Golden Immortal was again killed in an instant.

Next, the flying sword flickered a few more times, and several more Demon Golden Immortals were killed.

With the enhancement of the immortal essence from the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, under the control of a divine sense comparable to that of a Da Luo Golden Immortal, and the integration of the power of the rules of space, Li Xiaojun manipulated the flying sword to assassinate the Demon Golden Immortals as easily as killing a chicken.

However, after killing several Demon Golden Immortals, the immortal essence on the flying sword became fully exhausted.

So, after slaying a few Demon Golden Immortals, Li Xiaojun had to retract the flying sword and infuse it with more immortal essence.

Of course, just as Li Xiaojun eliminated several Demon Golden Immortals, two demon Taiyi noticed his killing spree.

In an instant, several powerful divine senses swept out.

However, when the two demon Taiyi released their divine senses, they did not find the one who was launching the sneak attacks.

"Everyone, pay attention to the ambush!"

Nonetheless, the two demon Taiyi quickly warned everyone to be cautious of the ambush.

What the two demon Taiyi Golden Immortals did not know, however, was that it was utterly useless.

Because in the next moment, a flying sword suddenly appeared in front of a Demon Golden Immortal, and before the Demon Golden Immortal could react, the flying sword pierced through his skull.

Moreover, after killing one Demon Golden Immortal, the flying sword did not stop but quickly flickered, resulting in several more Demon Golden Immortals meeting their demise.

"Damn it…"

"Stop…"

"Who are you?"

As Li Xiaojun took action, the two demon Taiyi Golden Immortals tried to use their divine sense to control Li Xiaojun’s flying sword, but they discovered they could not control it at all.

They could only watch helplessly as the flying sword continued to harvest Demon Golden Immortals.

This situation made the two demon Taiyi extremely furious.

However, no matter how angry they were, they had no means to stop the slaughter of their subordinates.

"Everyone, come to me and take shelter in my formations!" the demon at the mid-Taiyi stage quickly pulled out an array disk and constructed an enormous barrier.

Upon hearing this, numerous panicked Demon Golden Immortals flew toward the barrier.

Li Xiaojun’s killing methods inspired anger in the demon Taiyi, but for the ordinary Demon Golden Immortals, it was pure terror, feeling despair as if their lives could be taken at any moment.

Now that the elder in the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm raised the formations, they naturally moved toward it to hide inside.

At that moment, all the Demon Golden Immortals believed that only by taking shelter inside the formations could they stop the enemy’s attacks.

However, Li Xiaojun did not care that all the Demon Golden Immortals were flying toward the formations; he continued his relentless killing of those who had not entered the formations.

While Li Xiaojun continued to attack, the two demon Taiyi Golden Immortals focused on protecting their people with the formations while desperately trying to locate the attacker.

The two demon Taiyi suspected that the attacker was a being at the late Taiyi stage, but they could not understand why they could not detect any fluctuations in divine sense.

Only a Da Luo Golden Immortal could achieve such a feat.

However, if the attacker were a Da Luo Golden Immortal, there would be no need for a sneak attack; they could simply annihilate them all directly.

Thus, both demon Taiyi speculated that the attacker was a powerhouse at the late Taiyi stage since only such a being would have a divine sense perception range greater than theirs.

Yet, what left the two demon Taiyi feeling hopeless was that the attacks lacked any clear direction; they appeared suddenly and then vanished.

They realized this was the power of the rules of space.

However, faced with this situation, the two had no remedies; they didn’t even know where their enemy was attacking from.

In light of the situation, they could only hold their most powerful formations to protect their people.

At the same time, they quickly sent a distress signal using communication magical devices to the Da Luo Golden Immortals in their tribe.

Once the signal was sent, the nearest Da Luo usually rushed to their aid.

…

Within a Taiyi Realm formation, the two demon Taiyi Golden Immortals looked at the more than one hundred Demon Golden Immortals who had just fled into the formation, their expressions very grave.

This time, over three hundred tribe members had come with them to the Golden Immortal Realm, but now only a little over one hundred remained; such losses were simply too great.

"Master Du Cang, what do we do now?"

A late-stage Golden Immortal from the demon tribe asked the mid-Taiyi stage demon with a fearful expression.

Hearing this, the demon known as Du Cang replied lightly, "Now we can only stay in the formations and wait for our tribe’s Da Luo to come to our rescue."

"Can this formation withstand their attacks?"

"This is a mid-Taiyi stage defensive magical array; even if a Da Luo attacks, it can hold for a moment. Don’t worry, the enemy cannot attack you through the array…”
