Chapter 920: A Big Trouble!

"Boom!"

A loud crash rang out as the Dark Profound Gold smashed a huge crater into the ground, shaking everyone's feet.

Seeing this, everyone's hearts pounded. This Ye Yuan was simply a humanoid monster—he had actually pulled out such a massive piece of Dark Profound Gold!

But before they could marvel, a sudden change occurred!

As the cave opened, streams of black qi surged out from within like a broken dam.

"Oh dear, looks like I've stirred up big trouble!" Ye Yuan said with an innocent look.

The sovereigns' faces also changed drastically. They had been hoping to enter the cave and seek treasures, but who could have expected such a sudden turn?

"Run! The Dark Profound Gold was used to seal demonic creatures. Now that it's been pulled out, the demons are out of control!" Liehuo saw the danger and immediately fled.

"Hahaha, trapped here for a hundred thousand years, we finally see the light of day again!"

At that moment, clusters of black shadows surged from the cave, instantly surrounding everyone and blocking all escape routes.

Seeing this, Ye Yuan understood clearly: this was no treasure land but a place where ancient experts had sealed the demon race!

These black shadows had the same aura as Jialan, though their demonic energy was far weaker.

Combining this with Siyin's earlier words, a glimmer of realization dawned on Ye Yuan.

It seemed that skeleton was the expert who had sealed these demons. But after the sealing, he had been at death's door and died here.

"Hehe, kid, it was you who freed us? As a reward, you will become my new vessel!"

A black shadow drifted before Ye Yuan and immediately attempted to possess him.

Hearing this, Ye Yuan grew excited: "Great, great! To become your vessel, I'm so honored!"

The demon shadow faltered, not expecting such a response. But it didn't dwell on it and slipped into Ye Yuan's body in a flash.

"Hehe, this kid is an idiot. Muluo possessing him is doing him a favor!"

"Muluo has found a vessel. Let's find ours quickly. In this state, our strength is greatly reduced!"

"There are quite a few Dao Profound experts here. Making them our demon slaves would be perfect!"

The demon shadows were utterly arrogant, paying no heed to the sovereigns.

Dozens of demon shadows hovered in the air.

Though their auras were weaker than the Demon God Jialan's, they were still much stronger than the sovereigns. With their numbers, their disdain was understandable.

"Alright, Muluo, since you've finished possessing, clean up these riffraff so we can take our turns!" a demon shadow said to Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan, who had seemed dazed, suddenly grinned and said, "Are you talking to me?"

The demon shadow faltered and blurted out, "You... you... how is this possible? Where's Muluo!"

Ye Yuan laughed: "Even Jialan couldn't possess my body, and you trash think you can take over your Ye爷's body? Clueless fools!"

"Impossible! You... you've met Lord Jialan? No way! Lord Jialan is invincible. If you saw him, how are you still alive?" The demon shadow's voice was filled with shock.

Ye Yuan curled his lip in disdain: "Invincible? Are all you demons so arrogant? Know your limits! That Jialan guy was beaten black and blue by me and is now licking his wounds somewhere!"

The demon shadow clearly didn't believe him. Though Demon God Jialan was from a different era, he was a renowned demon god among the demon race!

Even after hundreds of thousands of years, Demon God Jialan's fame still echoed among demons.

Could such an existence be beaten black and blue by this kid who hadn't even reached the Formless realm?

What nonsense!

But Demon God Jialan had been sealed for nearly a million years. Not even low-level demons knew his name. How did this kid know it?

The sovereigns were also shocked. They had clearly seen the demon shadow possess Ye Yuan, but it had vanished without a trace.

This Ye Yuan was terrifying!

"Kid, don't get cocky! I'll deal with you later!" The demon shadow moved and darted toward the assassins.

Clearly, possessing Dao Profound experts carried risks, but for Formless realm martial artists, the demon shadows had no qualms.

Though most of the sovereigns' assassins had died in the Dragon Emperor's territory, Lengxue, Tiandang, and Liehuo still had many left, enough for possession.

In an instant, demon shadows howled, filling the entire space.

"Think you can possess so easily?"

Ye Yuan sneered and suddenly struck out with the Coiling Dragon Heaven-Shattering Palm.

"Boom!"

The demon shadows were formidable; they burst out demonic energy and blocked the palm strike.

"Heh, kid, your skills aren't enough to hurt us!" a demon shadow sneered.

Ye Yuan smiled: "Is that so?"

As the demon shadow flew, it suddenly plummeted as if severely injured.

"Ah! Damn kid, you hid lightning attribute in your attack!" the demon shadow screamed.

Lightning was the bane of all demonic creatures. Though the lightning from Ye Yuan's Yuanci Spirit Wood couldn't kill these demon shadows, it could make them suffer.

"What are you waiting for? These are all Demon Emperors. Once they possess someone, none of you will escape!" Ye Yuan shouted.

The sovereigns finally snapped out of it and attacked the demon shadows together.

Ye Yuan flashed to Shaokai and the others, saying gravely, "I'll cover you. Get out of this space quickly. Those sovereigns probably can't hold off these Demon Emperors!"

None of them had fought demons before and didn't know their terror. Demons were like cockroaches—without extraordinary means, they couldn't be killed.

Though Ye Yuan could use the Yuanci Spirit Wood to counter them, his strength was too weak. Killing so many Demon Emperors was nearly impossible.

The outcome of this battle was uncertain.

When the sovereigns attacked, their momentum was immense, momentarily suppressing most of the Demon Emperors.

But the Demon Emperors outnumbered the sovereigns, and a few slipped through to possess the assassins.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

Screams rang out one after another as the assassins fell, uttering their final cries.

However, the Demon Emperors were wary of Ye Yuan, and none dared approach him.
