Chapter 1983: Can't Die

Within the bone demon army, Ye Yuan was startled but not panicked.

With a burst of the Star Luo Battle Flag, a group of bone demons was shattered, even those at the True God Third Layer being no exception.

With his current divine essence strength, Ye Yuan's control of the Star Luo Battle Flag was far more powerful than before; True God Third Layer was no match for him.

The real threat were the bone demons at the True God Fourth Layer.

However, Ye Yuan was not worried. Relying on two天尊 divine treasures, even True God Fourth Layer could hardly get close.

Ye Yuan was different from others; his divine essence was extremely pure, giving him a strong ability for sustained combat.

This level of consumption meant little to him.

But Zuo Mo and Feng Xiaotian did not think so. Seeing Ye Yuan display great power with the Star Luo Battle Flag, they only sneered coldly.

"Heh, relying on the power of divine treasures to linger on, but divine treasures consume a great deal of divine essence. Let's see how long you can hold out!"

Zuo Mo sneered, but the sourness in his words could not be concealed.

Two天尊 divine treasures—he was extremely envious!

"With this level of consumption, his divine essence will be exhausted in at most half an hour. Then he'll be at our mercy," Feng Xiaotian added.

Though they spoke thus, their inner shock was no less.

Around Ye Yuan, there were at least five or six bone demons at the True God Fourth Layer, yet under the assault of so many bone demons, he showed no signs of defeat.

Such strength was already astonishing.

After all, Ye Yuan faced these five or six True God Fourth Layer bone demons while simultaneously dealing with countless other bone demons!

Nearby, Song Yu's expression was very grim.

The endless skeleton army stretched beyond sight.

If it were him, he would probably have been torn apart by now.

Zuo Mo looked at Song Yu and said with a half-smile, "Song Yu, aren't you Ye Yuan's mortal enemy? Now that he's about to die, you should be happy."

Song Yu snorted coldly and said through gritted teeth to Guo Jingyang and the others, "Any of you want to charge in with me?"

Hu Fei immediately responded without hesitation, "My life was given by Brother Ye; what if I return it?"

"Brother Ye is righteous and loyal; how can we just watch from the sidelines? Charge in!" said Guo Jingyang.

Ma Chang nodded and said with determination, "I'll go too."

"Good, follow me!"

With that, Song Yu took the lead and charged straight into the bone demon army.

Zuo Mo was greatly surprised by Song Yu and the others' move.

These guys... were they crazy?

What kind of bewitching soup had Ye Yuan fed these guys?

In the secret realm, who wasn't selfish? Who would risk life and death for a companion?

They were called companions, but it was merely a cooperation of interests.

At the critical moment of life and death, they would abandon their companions without hesitation.

In fact, that was exactly what they had done.

Along the way, their companions had dwindled, many directly abandoned by them.

But now, Song Yu and these few guys actually rushed into the bone demon army for Ye Yuan, disregarding their own lives.

Good heavens, they didn't know until they engaged.

Once they started fighting, even Song Yu, a True God Fourth Layer, felt immense pressure.

There were too many bone demons around; they couldn't handle them all.

Everywhere, there were flashes of blades and shadows of swords.

Even though Song Yu was powerful, he was hard-pressed, and the others even more so.

They advanced several dozen zhang but could no longer push forward.

Song Yu faced a True God Fourth Layer bone demon while dealing with others, so he had to fight and retreat.

In the end, Song Yu and the others were forced out.

These bone demons did not pursue relentlessly; once beyond a certain boundary, they returned.

Song Yu and the others looked extremely grim; only then did they realize how strong Ye Yuan was!

He alone could handle so many bone demons.

Zuo Mo and the others were also shocked; without comparison, there was no harm.

He had fought Song Yu and knew that Song Yu's strength was not much less than his own.

If he went down himself, he would naturally not fare well.

But Ye Yuan, besieged by so many bone demons, remained unharmed—one had to admit his strength was formidable.

Later, Song Yu and the others tried to charge in several times, but each time they were driven back.

Several of them were even wounded.

Half an hour passed, and the expressions on Zuo Mo and Feng Xiaotian's faces grew more and more interesting.

They had been gloating, waiting for Ye Yuan's divine essence to run dry.

But until now, Ye Yuan showed no signs of depletion.

In this half hour, Ye Yuan had actually advanced several hundred zhang outward, not far from the edge.

"This... this guy, is he even human? With such consumption, he's as if nothing's wrong!" Zuo Mo said in disbelief.

Feng Xiaotian's expression was also ugly, and he said solemnly, "What kind of cultivation technique is this kid practicing? Even with an Emperor's inheritance, such consumption should have some effect, right?"

They truly couldn't understand how much divine essence was stored in Ye Yuan's body; was it inexhaustible?

Song Yu and the others had given up breaking in, but they noticed Ye Yuan's anomaly and were excited.

"Hahaha... Didn't you say Ye Yuan was doomed? Open your dog eyes and see, is he dead?" Song Yu laughed loudly.

Provoked by these words, Zuo Mo's face flushed red, and he said in fury, "If he doesn't die, won't you die? Brother Feng, how about we join forces and wipe them out first?"

Ye Yuan couldn't die, and Feng Xiaotian was also in a bad mood, saying, "Just what I was thinking."

In fact, they had wanted to make a move long ago.

But they had been holding back, wanting to watch the show.

Now Song Yu's words completely enraged the two.

Without another word, the two directly engaged Song Yu.

These people had been making sarcastic remarks all along, and Song Yu had long been annoyed. He drew his sword and took on both alone.

But Song Yu was not Ye Yuan; fighting one against two was obviously very strenuous.

Zuo Mo and Feng Xiaotian were no rookies; they were among the top of their peers.

The remaining Guo Jingyang and the others, though few in number, were far stronger than their opponents.

Both sides were holding grudges, and the battle was fierce.

Ye Yuan sensed something and, seeing Song Yu and the others besieged, was extremely anxious.

But there were too many bone demons around him; he couldn't break through anytime soon.

Song Yu, fighting one against two, grew increasingly strained and perilous.

"Song Yu, you're a True God Fourth Layer, yet you're willing to be Ye Yuan's dog!" Zuo Mo laughed.

"Bullshit! We are friends with Ye Yuan. People like you will never understand!" Song Yu cursed.

"Friends? Heh, then go all out for Ye Yuan! Brother Feng, hold him off while I prepare to finish this guy and fulfill his sense of friendship!"

With that, Zuo Mo's aura surged, and everyone's expression changed.
