# Chapter 1293: Yan Di Aotian
"Boom!" Terrifying sounds rolled in, and on the demon land, the Nine Nether Demon Lotus was planted. The terrifying demon flames surged skyward, as if about to incinerate the demon land itself. The scorching yet icy demon flames rose upward, the towering Nine Nether Demon Flames wanting to burn everything to nothing.
"What do we do next?" Lin Feng looked at the demon land formed by that golden page, which had actually absorbed the Nine Nether Demon Lotus. His heart was greatly shaken. He turned his gaze to Qiongqi. By now, the powerful experts in the distance must have detected the commotion here and were likely rushing toward this place.
"Leave the rest to me, this Emperor. Lend me that page of your martial soul to use." Qiongqi's massive eyes gleamed with an eerie light, his fierce pupils filled with murderous intent. Lin Feng's heart trembled inwardly—this guy was about to go crazy.
His form shifted, and Qiongqi's body transformed into that Taoist priest, clad in a Daoist robe, with a long beard fluttering in the wind.
"You still dare to transform back?" Lin Feng's expression was startled. Wasn't this guy afraid of death?
"What's there to fear? I, this Emperor, am helping you out of trouble. Let everyone come at me. You put away your martial soul and don't let anyone discover it. Lend me this page of your martial soul to use." Yan Di seemed to have regained that hint of arrogance. Lin Feng nodded slightly without saying much. With a thought, the demon land formed by that golden page floated into Qiongqi's palm, as if Qiongqi were holding up a piece of demonic earth with his hand.
As for Lin Feng's Heavenly Book Martial Soul, he had already put it away.
The rolling roar of tearing space had already come crashing in. The transformed Yan Di stomped heavily on the ground, and instantly, countless patterns on the surrounding earth seemed to come alive. In all directions, flames shot into the sky, ravaging the land. In an instant, screams rang out endlessly as many people's bodies were buried directly in the flames.
"I'm off. Your martial soul must cooperate with me at any time!" Yan Di's body soared into the sky, and the rolling aura buried this area, ensuring no one would discover Lin Feng here.
Soon, the crowds rushing toward this place all raised their heads, looking into the void. There, they saw a figure clad in a Daoist robe holding up a piece of demon land in his palm. On that demon land, terrifying demon flames surged skyward. Seeing this person, countless eyes suddenly froze in place.
"It's him!"
"It's that bastard Daoist!" The people of the Qi Family stared at Yan Di, their gazes icy cold.
"Kill!" The people of the Demon Emperor Hall were furious. Peng Mo's entire body blazed with dazzling golden light, wanting to slay Yan Di. It was this bastard who had tricked Peng Huang, causing him to be attacked by the Nine Nether Demon Emperor. The Nine Nether Demon Melody had pierced into his body, nearly driving him to demonization. Then, that mysterious powerful expert had grabbed him in his palm and flung him millions of miles away, utterly humiliating him. And now, in the Eight Wastelands Realm, the three demon emperors of the demon domain had actually dared to besiege Peng Huang.
"You still dare to show yourself!" Countless eyes brimmed with killing intent. This bastard Daoist had once tricked eight emperors, unlocked the shackles of the Nine Nether Demon Emperor, and let the demon emperor break free from his seal. Now, he had appeared again, using a piece of demon land to seize the main body of the demon flames.
"A bunch of useless trash. I, this Venerable One, am right here. Who comes to die?"
Within the rolling demon flames, Qiongqi's body appeared somewhat illusory, but the towering demon flames were extremely clear. Killing him would not be easy. Therefore, although these people wished they could kill this Daoist immediately, none dared to act rashly.
"Kill!" A furious roar rolled out. Golden light shot into the clouds, illuminating the sky. It was a powerful expert from the Demon Emperor Hall charging at Yan Di. Although his true form was not that of the Golden-Winged Great Roc, he still carried the bloodline of the divine bird—a golden-bodied roc, his entire body forged from gold, his speed swift and fierce. His whole form transformed into a terrifying roc, like an indestructible golden sword, slashing toward Yan Di in the void, fast beyond belief.
"Seeking death!" A fierce light flashed in Yan Di's eyes. In this life, he had possessed Qiongqi, carrying a trace of Qiongqi's nature.
"Kill!" Yan Di stomped the ground, and instantly, the void trembled, as if space itself twisted. Strands of patterns spiraled, and the void shook. At the same time, Yan Di's palm suddenly shook, and the terrifying demon land poured out, smashing toward the roc.
"Screech!" The roc roared, crying out to the sky. Its dazzling golden body seemed about to shatter the heavens. But the twisting, trembling void seemed to bind its body in place. No matter how it struggled, it could only advance within that trembling spatial track. With a thunderous boom, the crowd only saw golden light shatter. That powerful roc was directly incinerated into nothingness by the flames on the demon land, dissipating into the air.
"Chi..." The powerful experts of the Demon Emperor Hall were furious beyond measure. Endless golden light burst from their bodies, terrifying beyond compare. Their dazzling golden eyes stared at the figure in the void, as if they wanted to devour him whole. But the Daoist's robe fluttered, his long beard swaying in the wind, the demon land held aloft in the void—an immortal's bearing, unmatched by any.
"I, this Venerable One, tell you all: this demon flame is the Nine Nether Demon Lotus used by the Nine Nether Demon Emperor. I had eight martial emperors offer sacrifices to seize this Nine Nether Demon Lotus. Now that the lotus is in my hands, whoever wants to come and die, I, this Venerable One, will grant their wish."
Yan Di stood in the void, domineering beyond measure, laying his cards on the table. I, this Venerable One, tricked eight martial emperors just for this Nine Nether Demon Lotus. Even if I make enemies of heaven and earth, so what? Come and kill me.
Lin Feng looked at the domineering Qiongqi in the void and cursed inwardly. This old undying bastard's flaw (mao bing) was acting up again. Domineering as he was, he would soon have to transform back into Qiongqi and hide. If the emperors of the Eight Wastelands found out, the sky would fall and the earth would split. Eight martial emperors hunting him down—there would be no escape. And then he, Lin Feng, would be dragged into it too.
Hearing Yan Di's arrogant words, the crowd glared at him with fury. Their wild, overbearing auras churned the surrounding space, producing tearing sounds as if they wanted to tear this guy to pieces.
More and more powerful experts gathered. Countless people greedily stared at the demon flames in the void. So that was the Nine Nether Demon Lotus of the Nine Nether Demon Emperor—such a terrifying object. As for the disciples and followers of the eight martial emperors whom Yan Di had tricked, they wished they could kill him on the spot. Not only had this bastard Daoist tricked their emperors, but he also dared to be so arrogant and lawless.
"Everyone, this Daoist is so rampant. If we don't kill him, how can we prove the might of the emperors? Moreover, the value of this Nine Nether Demon Lotus is unimaginable. It's time to bring out your imperial artifacts." At this moment, a sovereign lord of the Qi Family spoke slowly to the crowd. After the emperors returned to the Eight Wastelands Realm, the powerful experts of the various martial emperor forces had all come out in full force, an even stronger lineup than last time. Since it was confirmed that the small worlds of Xi Huang and the Nine Nether Demon Emperor had appeared, how could they give up on seizing treasures? Almost every martial emperor force had brought imperial artifacts with them, though none had revealed them yet.
"What, does the Qi Family want to reap the benefits without lifting a finger?" The sovereign lord of the Wen Family said coldly. The Qi Family and the Wen Family were now as irreconcilable as the Heavenly Terrace and the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress, or even worse. The martial emperors had already fought for real in a great battle. What was there to fear anymore?
"Our Qi Family's imperial artifact has already been destroyed. Everyone knows that. What do you mean by that?" The Qi Family's sovereign lord replied coldly.
"Since you have no imperial artifact, you should get out of here. What right do you have to speak?" The Wen Family's sovereign lord said coldly, showing no respect. He didn't believe that the Qi Family's sovereign lord didn't have another imperial artifact on him. The Qi Family was a martial emperor family that had been passed down for many years.
"That's right. If you have no imperial artifact, get out of here!" A demon sovereign lord from the Demon Emperor Hall said arrogantly, his voice icy. "When we kill this stinking Daoist, we'll start fighting over the Nine Nether Demon Lotus. If you have no imperial artifact, don't join the fun!"
With that, this demon sovereign lord of the Demon Emperor Hall opened his mouth, and endless golden light seemed to drown heaven and earth. From his mouth, he spat out a feather—a Peng Huang feather forged into existence, its entire body radiating dazzling golden light, sharp and boundless, like the sharpest sword in the world. It gave people the illusion that if this feather swept past, it could even cut through space.
The Demon Emperor Hall had brought out their imperial artifact to kill Yan Di in the void.
"That's right. Those without imperial artifacts, stay far away. Otherwise, we'll kill you first!" A demon sovereign lord from Thunder Emperor Island took out a Lightning Divine Pestle, terrifying beyond measure, with lightning light piercing through heaven and earth.
These martial emperor forces were driving people away. If you had no imperial artifact, get lost. You had no right to compete for the Nine Nether Demon Lotus!
"This guy seems to have overdone it!" Lin Feng muttered to himself in the dark void. He saw Yan Di still standing proudly in the void, a fierce light flickering in his eyes as he stared at the imperial artifacts that had appeared. If you want to play, then play big!
