Chapter 99 The Demonic Artifact Returns to Righteousness, and the Heroes Collapse

The situation changed dramatically, and the decisive battle was about to begin.

"Hehehe... I never thought you would actually find the birthplace of the demonic artifact. It's like searching high and low only to find it right under your nose!" The sinister voice echoed in the air, like a demonic sound from hell, sending chills down one's spine.

As soon as she finished speaking, a dense crowd surged in from all directions, completely surrounding Dai Yao and her companions. These people exuded a fierce aura and murderous intent, clearly elites from various factions. Dai Yao immediately spotted Shadow Demon and Star Wind, both wearing sinister smiles, as if victory was assured.

"Oh, isn't this your old acquaintances, Shadow Demon and Star Wind? What, here to feed the enemy?" Dai Yao's lips curled into a mocking smile, her tone relaxed, as if she were facing not a thousand troops, but a flock of lambs to the slaughter. Spirit Butterfly hid behind Dai Yao, her face pale, but she still forced a calm expression as she gripped her magical artifact tightly. The mysterious figure stood quietly beside Dai Yao, his gaze piercing, radiating a powerful aura, like a towering mountain shielding Dai Yao from the storm.

Dai Yao made her move, overwhelming all the heroes.

"Enough nonsense! Today is your death day!" Shadow Demon roared, launching the first attack. Members of other forces also joined in, unleashing a barrage of spells and magical artifacts upon Dai Yao and her companions. The surrounding space was sealed off by their auras, and Dai Yao felt immense pressure, but she remained fearless.

"That's it? That's it? You think you can just tickle me?" Dai Yao sneered, her demonic weapon gleaming brightly, unleashing a suffocating pressure. She no longer concealed her power; the demonic weapon seemed to come alive in her hands, emitting a series of buzzing sounds. Dai Yao flashed, charging into the enemy ranks like a ghost, wielding her demonic weapon with each attack carrying earth-shattering power.

The henchmen were like paper before her, beaten and knocked over, screaming in agony. "Ah! My leg!" "My arm!" "Have mercy!"... The screams rose and fell, like a scene from hell. Dai Yao charged through the enemy ranks, tearing a bloody path through their encirclement.

Upon seeing this, Shadow Demon and Star Wind's expressions changed drastically. "How is this possible?!" Shadow Demon's eyes widened in disbelief; his meticulously planned encirclement had been so easily torn apart by Dai Yao! Star Wind gasped in shock; this woman's strength far exceeded their expectations!

Starwind is defeated, Shadow Fiend struggles.

"Hmph, such childish tricks, yet you dare to show off your meager skills before an expert!" Dai Yao sneered, the demonic weapon in her hand shining even brighter, unleashing an even more terrifying pressure. "Come on, let this grandma teach you a lesson!"

Shadow Demon gritted his teeth, knowing he could no longer hold back. He rapidly formed hand seals, chanting incantations, and the surrounding space began to distort. Countless black shadows emerged from the void, rushing towards Dai Yao like ghosts. Xing Feng also unleashed his natal magic weapon, a longsword gleaming with cold light, its sword energy crisscrossing, aiming straight for Dai Yao's vitals.

Dai Yao remained completely calm. A glint of light flashed in her eyes, as if she had seen through the Shadow Demon's scheme. The demonic weapon in her hand trembled slightly, and a strange wave spread out. The shadowy figures, as if encountering their nemesis, let out shrill screams and then vanished without a trace.

"What?!" Shadow Demon was shocked; his signature move had been so easily countered! At the same time, Star Wind's attack arrived. Dai Yao flashed, dodging Star Wind's sword energy as if by teleportation, then appeared behind Star Wind, slamming her demonic weapon into his back.

With a loud bang, Xingfeng was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground and spitting out blood.

The mysterious figure and Psylocke also joined the battle. The mysterious figure clashed head-on with the Shadow Demon, the two exchanging blows in a fierce and evenly matched fight. Psylocke, meanwhile, healed the wounded and assisted Dai Yao in attacking the enemy.

Dai Yao's ultimate skill, World-Destroying Demon Light

The battle reached its climax, with the surrounding ground blasted into large craters by magic and the sky illuminated by its light. Suddenly, Dai Yao changed tactics. Instead of attacking first, she used the power of her magical artifact to create illusions, making it difficult for the enemy to distinguish between the real and the fake.

"Heh heh, you little punks, you're still too green to play hide-and-seek with me!" The enemy fell for it, and they started attacking each other, creating chaos. "Ouch, who hit me?" "Are you blind? I hit the enemy!" "The enemy? You're the enemy!"...

Seizing the opportunity, Dai Yao led the mysterious figure and Spirit Butterfly in a surprise attack. Caught off guard, the enemies collapsed to the ground. Dai Yao charged directly at Shadow Demon and Star Wind, her eyes sharp as blades. "Next, it's your turn."

Dai Yao flashed, appearing before Xing Feng like a ghost. The demonic weapon in her hand hummed, radiating a chilling pressure. "You? You dare call yourself an expert?" Dai Yao's lips curled into a mocking smile, her tone filled with disdain.

Xingfeng's expression changed drastically. He tried to dodge, but found himself locked in place by the pressure of the demonic artifact, unable to move. "Boom!" The demonic artifact crashed down with destructive power. Xingfeng didn't even have time to scream before he was slammed into the ground, leaving behind only a mess.

He struggled to his feet, covered in blood, and knelt on the ground in a disheveled state, trembling: "Spare...spare my life..."

"Begging for mercy now? Too late!" Dai Yao looked at him coldly, without a trace of pity in her eyes.

Having dealt with Xingfeng, Dai Yao turned her gaze to the Shadow Demon. The Shadow Demon's face was grim; he knew he had met a formidable opponent. "I didn't expect you could actually control a demonic artifact..." he said through gritted teeth.

"There are still many things I didn't expect!" Dai Yao sneered. "Today I'll show you what true power is!" The demonic artifact shone brightly in her hand, and a powerful force surged from her body like a raging river.

Dai Yao unleashed the most powerful force of her demonic artifact—"World-Destroying Demonic Light." A jet-black beam of light shot out from the artifact, carrying an aura of annihilation, heading straight for the Shadow Demon. The Shadow Demon desperately resisted, but it was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, utterly vulnerable.

With a deafening roar, the Shadow Demon was engulfed by the demonic light and instantly turned to ashes.

The situation has initially stabilized, but crises lurk everywhere.

Seeing their leader defeated, the other factions panicked and scattered in all directions, fearing they would be caught in the blast of Dai Yao's demonic artifact. "Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

Standing in the center of the battlefield, Dai Yao watched the enemy's disheveled retreat, a feeling of unprecedented exhilaration rising within her. "Hmph, a bunch of rabble, dare to challenge this old lady?"

The mysterious figure walked to Dai Yao's side and gently embraced her. "It's good that you're alright." Dai Yao leaned on his shoulder, feeling his warmth, her heart filled with gratitude and love.

Lingdie walked over, a delighted smile on her face. "Yaoyao, you're amazing!"

The three stood embracing, bathed in the glory of victory. Their bond, forged in the crucible of this battle, had grown even stronger and more unbreakable.

Dai Yao looked up at the sky, a sudden unease rising in her heart. "This seems to be just the beginning..." she murmured.

The mysterious figure gripped her hand tightly, his gaze unwavering: "No matter what happens, I will be by your side."

Dai Yao kicked Xing Feng, who was barely clinging to life, far away, as casually as throwing away trash. "That's it? Early Nascent Soul stage? Laughable, trying to scam me?" She patted non-existent dust off her hands, turned to look at the livid Shadow Demon, and beckoned with a provocative gesture.

"Next, it's you." The Shadow Demon was furious, yet wary of the demonic artifact in Dai Yao's hand. In his eyes, this artifact was a ticking time bomb; who knew if it would explode on him the next second?

He narrowed his eyes menacingly, plotting his escape.

"Trying to run? Too late!" Dai Yao saw through his thoughts at a glance. The magic weapon shone brightly, and beams of black light attacked the Shadow Demon like a storm.

"Ah!" The Shadow Demon screamed repeatedly, struggling to defend itself, but it was powerless to resist the pressure of the demonic weapon.

Just then, the spirit of the demonic artifact suddenly roared in dissatisfaction: "Hey! Woman! Can you be a little gentler! You're making me want to throw up!" Dai Yao almost stumbled; this guy was really a handful!

But she still patiently comforted her, saying, "Be good, just hang in there a little longer, it'll be over soon."

The spirit of the magical artifact snorted, which could be considered a reluctant agreement.

Before long, the Shadow Demon was completely suppressed by the magical artifact, kneeling on the ground, on the verge of death.

"Spare...spare my life..."

Dai Yao sneered, "Want to live? Spit out everything you know!"

Shadow Demon dared not hide anything and spilled out everything he knew.

It turns out that this group of people were instructed to surround and kill Dai Yao in order to prevent her from participating in the upcoming battle of destiny.

A battle of destiny, a mysterious event unfolds.

"A battle of destiny?" Dai Yao's heart skipped a beat; this was something that hadn't been mentioned in the original story.

Just then, the mysterious figure walked up to Dai Yao and gently pulled her into his arms: "It's alright now."

Lingdie ran over, her face full of admiration: "Yaoyao, you're so cool!" She pulled out a bunch of pills and stuffed them into Daiyao's hand, "Quick, take some to replenish your strength!"

Dai Yao was both amused and exasperated; this girl was still the same as ever.

She looked up at the sky, which had been clear but had become gloomy, and an inexplicable sense of oppression enveloped the entire Ether Realm.

"It seems like things are only just beginning," Dai Yao said in a low voice.

She gripped the mysterious figure's hand tightly, her gaze fixed firmly on the distance. A powerful surge of energy emanated from afar, like the breath of an ancient behemoth, sending chills down one's spine.

Suddenly, Dai Yao turned around sharply, looking in a certain direction with a solemn expression.

"Someone's coming..." Before she could finish speaking, a dark figure descended from the sky, landing in front of everyone and bringing shocking news.
