Chapter 241 Ancestor Demon Dies!
Bi Hai never would have imagined that his Second Layer Barrier would be shattered by several punches and kicks from the Demon. This was not the First Layer Barrier, after all. The Second Layer's strength was dozens of times that of the First Layer's, but now it was being forcibly broken by this Demon.
As the Second Layer Barrier cracked, a chain reaction caused Bi Hai's complexion to pale. He vomited a mouthful of blood with a "wa" sound and his momentum significantly weakened. The reason the Second Layer Barrier was so strong was that Bi Hai had attached all of his Divine Sense and Magical Powers to it.
If the barrier remained unbroken, even under the most violent attacks, Bi Hai would at most be shaken a little. But once the barrier was broken, Bi Hai would be injured in an instant.
While the injury wasn't severe, it was enough to cause Bi Hai to falter momentarily. It was this brief hesitation that left Bi Hai unable to dodge out of the range of the two giant fists after the Second Layer Barrier shattered. As the two giant fists almost made contact with Bi Hai's body, the giant Demon suddenly let out a muffled shout, and its right arm dropped.
The right fist that had touched Bi Hai fell directly to the ground.
As a result, Bi Hai was only hit hard by the left fist and was sent flying. Relative to the anticipated pincer attack, this single punch was significantly weaker. Moreover, Bi Hai's body was still shielded by a final protective Barrier, so he was only hammered into the ground by the impact force.
At this moment, the giant Demon had landed on the ground, pressing its left hand against its right shoulder while turning its head slightly with a fierce glint in its eyes, staring at a certain place. At the shoulder of its right arm, a gruesome, bloody hole had appeared. Had the hole been even slightly larger, the Ancestor Demon's whole right arm would probably have been severed.

Though it hadn't been severed immediately, it was now hanging by only a few strands of skin and meat, dangling limply at its side, clearly completely useless. Just as the Ancestor Demon was about to leap to its feet, it suddenly frowned and instantly shifted its body sideways for nearly a hundred meters.
In its original position, a green ruler, with a green tornado swirling around it, buried itself into the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust and sand.
The strike that almost disabled the Demon Clan's arm was inflicted by Lin Xi's Dong Tian Chi. At this moment, Lin Xi stood leisurely on a broken wall. At the corner of the wall, Bu Yun was spitting out blood non-stop and lying on the ground, obviously having been defeated horribly.
Right hand transformed into Sword Finger, Lin Xi gestured lightly at the Dong Tian Chi, which instantly flew through the air and appeared in front of Lin Xi. Then, Lin Xi turned to glance at Hao Chen and Jixin, who were locked in intense hand-to-hand combat, and noticed that the two were evenly matched at this point.
Earlier, Lin Xi had seen a scene where Jixin was about to bite Hao Chen's shoulder and thought that Jixin would end the battle then and there. Unexpectedly, they were now at a stalemate, and it seemed that the victor would not be decided anytime soon.
Looking over at King of Qin, Lin Xi noticed that the King of Qin was wielding a ghostly banner, fighting vigorously against a much smaller Nine-Headed Serpent, while Jing Potian was entangled with ten unknown evil spirits, also fiercely locked in combat with no clear outcome imminent.
Additionally, in the mid-air, a massive Nine-Headed Serpent and two evil spirits were fighting, but it was clear that the Nine-Headed Serpent was at a disadvantage and would likely soon fall.
Looking around once more, Lin Xi could not see the others. Bi Hai had seemingly been launched who-knows-where by that punch from the giant Demon, and Yao Wumeng had vanished as well. However, Lin Xi had clearly seen Yao Wumeng getting attacked by the giant Demon when it first appeared.
Lin Xi guessed that Yao Wumeng might be hiding somewhere, recovering from injuries – after all, he still had that Elixir Spirit Pill in his possession.
The situation on the battlefield had now become clear. In Bi Hai's absence, the various Black Mirror Scorpions had dispersed. So the outcome of the battle between the two sides depended on whether Lin Xi would deal with the Ancestor Demon first or whether Yao Wumeng would be the first to recover.
If Lin Xi was quicker, he could aid King of Qin and Jixin in defeating their opponents after taking down the Ancestor Demon, and even if Yao Wumeng fully recovered, facing three adversaries, he would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage.
But if Yao Wumeng recovered first, their side would undoubtedly be defeated, and the difference would then be whether the four of them could manage to escape with their lives.
So, right now, Lin Xi was the key. Of course, if Bi Hai could reappear, their side's chances of winning would be even greater. Taking a deep breath, Lin Xi cleared away all distractions and stared intently at the Ancestor Demon, who was a hundred meters away.
The Ancestor Demon had stopped the bleeding in its right arm, and though the shoulder wound was slowly healing, it was clear it wouldn't be usable again anytime soon. The Ancestor Demon had not launched an immediate attack due to Lin Xi's Domain Instrument, Dong Tian Chi, which could indeed inflict serious injuries on him.
Though the Ancestor Demon had been reduced to a battle creature controlled by the World Suppressing Stele, its wisdom, Divine Sense's sensitivity, and its keen combat instincts had not diminished in the slightest. Now, the Ancestor Demon was also staring fixedly at Yao Wumeng, ready to unleash a furious counterattack the moment Yao Wumeng made a move.
At this time, Lin Xi was actually pondering something – whether the mysterious event that had transpired during his battle with the black worm would occur again. To this day, Lin Xi couldn't understand why, after the attack had killed the black worm, the attack would suddenly reappear and strike him.
Furthermore, how the obviously dead black worm could reappear, and why it would vanish after Lin Xi was injured, all of this remained a mystery to Lin Xi.
