Seeing the two armies locked in a stalemate, Ling Xiao grew impatient. He drew his sword and spurred his horse, shouting, "Thunder and Fire Divisions, follow me and break through the enemy lines!"
The elite troops moved swiftly, their killing intent palpable, charging towards the enemy like thunder and fire.
Two elite troops split up to the left and right, breaking the imperial army's formation.
Ling Xiao charged into the enemy ranks with his sword drawn. His sword flashed, striking with lightning and burning with fire. Those who stood in his way were swept away. His bravery was invincible, and the people inside and outside the city were terrified.
In an instant, the army outside the village was completely annihilated. Beitang Jianghe and Pei Dingbian were shocked and had no choice but to close the gates tightly and defend the area to the death.
Ling Xiao rode his horse around the fortress, finding no flaws and no way to break through.
"Marshal Ling, let me break this barrier!"
Ling Xiao received Yue Junwan's telepathic message, and then led the Thunderfire Cavalry back into the formation.
Beitang Jianghe and Pei Dingbian thought that Ling Xiao had given up in the face of difficulties, and they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, the giant tower in the Dragonscale Army formation emitted an eerie light, and hundreds of Divine Refining Cannons floated up and surrounded the city, while simultaneously spewing out blazing flames and attacking the city's protective barrier from multiple directions.
Yue Junwan carefully studied the barrier and discovered that the Four-Dimensional Evil-Suppressing Barrier would ripple slightly every time it encountered an attack. Once the attack disappeared, the ripples would gradually subside, which was obviously used to neutralize the attack.
Seeing this, he devised a plan. He controlled all the cannons to attack one spot, firing one shot after another, continuously bombarding the same point. The ripples grew larger and larger, gradually spreading across the entire barrier.
At the same time, the main cannon of the Divine Refining Pagoda began to charge up. Yue Junwan shouted "Open!" and a scorching flame streaked across the sky, heading straight for the center of the ripples. With a loud bang, the light shield shattered, and the giant cauldron inside the village collapsed at the same time. The Four-Dimensional Demon-Suppressing Realm—Broken! The cannon's residual power was still there. The huge village was overturned by the heat wave, and the soldiers and horses suffered heavy losses. The two generals barely managed to stand up, but they saw a scene of devastation all around. The survivors felt as if they were in a furnace or purgatory, and even the ground felt scalding hot.
Suddenly, the sound of uniform military equipment rang out from the perimeter. It was clear that the archers of the Dragonscale Army had surrounded them from all directions, and their powerful bows and sharp arrows were all aimed at the remaining defeated soldiers.
Ling Xiao shouted loudly, "Those who surrender will not be killed!"
Beitang Jianghe and Pei Dingbian were so terrified that they quickly abandoned their weapons and led the way in surrendering.
Ling Xiao ordered Sun De to stay behind to clean up the battlefield and collect the remaining soldiers, while he led the main force to attack the north gate of Yujing.
A three-way battle takes place within Yujing, a clash of titans.
Four earth-shattering battles erupt, and the Confucian and Demonic factions once again clash in a life-or-death struggle.
Duanmu Lige unleashed his power, his claws covering Meng Ke's spirit.
Meng Ke raised his palm and gently flicked his five fingers, deflecting the immense force and once again sending the Yang Demon packing.
Duanmu Lige thought to himself, "Every method of deflecting force has its limits. I don't believe you can maintain your position indefinitely!"
Therefore, he gathered his true energy, concentrated his strength in his palm, and compressed the three layers of true energy into a palm-sized ball of energy, which he then pushed out forcefully.
Meng Ke knew this move was no small matter, so he focused his mind, supporting with his left hand and deflecting with his right, unleashing a soft and swirling force, and delivered another "Golden Beacon Reversing the Sun".
With a flourish of his sword, Meng Ke reversed the tide and, relying on his master's legacy, turned the tide once again, holding firm and preventing any loss. He even brought Duanmu Lige to the brink of collapse, exposing his cervix.
Meng Ke secretly exclaimed that this was a golden opportunity, focused his energy on his sword finger, and unleashed a "Dawn Divine Sword" strike.
Strike directly at the Yang Demon's Tanzhong and Qihai points.
The pure Yang sword energy pierced straight through his dantian. Duanmu Lige groaned, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, yet his face lit up with joy: "You stinking scholar, I've got you!"
Meng Ke felt a sudden tightening on his wrist as Duanmu Lige's five fingers gripped tightly, locking him in place.
But then Duanmu Lige's other hand suddenly struck out. Meng Ke responded with a single palm, their palms touching. He immediately felt a great force surge towards him and hurriedly reversed his Yang energy to deflect the demonic energy. However, his body was locked in place, and Jin Feng's reverse Yang energy could not be fully utilized. The palm force that could have deflected the immense force was actually neutralized by the demonic power, ultimately resulting in a stalemate of internal energy.
Duanmu Lige laughed heartily, "In terms of internal strength, you are no match for me!"
He unleashed the full power of his Buddhist, Taoist, demonic, and Yin-Yang demonic bodies, determined to crush Mencius to death.
Meng Ke restrained his true energy, avoiding the strong and turning to a defensive posture, resisting Duanmu Lige's inexhaustible internal force.
On the other hand, Yuan Qitian's staff strikes were heavy and powerful, while Zong Yixiao's sword strikes were fierce. When they clashed head-on, purple energy overflowed and the energy surged. It was a battle of equals, with no clear winner.
Yuan Qitian was secretly surprised. He thought to himself that, in the past, he should have been slightly better than Zong Yixiao, not to mention that he had now undergone a complete transformation. However, the result of this head-on collision was that they were evenly matched.
"The bookworm is constantly overdrawing his foundation, no wonder he has such a powerful and unparalleled martial arts body."
Yuan Qi struck a few blows, but seeing that he could not gain the upper hand, he immediately shifted his energy and transformed his staff technique into a slight movement, revealing a three-tenths weakness.
Zong Yixiao immediately seized the opportunity and thrust his sword into the empty space in the left shoulder.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Qitian couldn't help but laugh. The tungsten iron rod in his hand spun like a windmill, entangling the longsword within it.
The feint suddenly became real, and Zong Yixiao felt as if he had fallen into a whirlpool in the sea, moving involuntarily with Yuan Qitian's staff movements, spinning until he was dizzy and disoriented.
Taking advantage of the situation, Yuan Qitian withdrew his staff and pointed it forward with the tungsten iron staff, like a coiled dragon probing its head, fiercely striking Zong Yixiao's Tanzhong acupoint.
Zong Yixiao felt a sharp pain in his chest and coughed up a mouthful of blood, but his madness intensified. As he was injured, he used the "Pure Yang Little Thunderbolt" technique in his left hand and struck forward with a palm.
Yuan Qitian was unable to stop his attack in time and took the full force of the attack. The fierce energy of Ziyang first gathered and then exploded, causing his blood and qi to surge and resulting in serious internal injuries.
Yuan Qitian channeled his ancient power to dispel the fierce purple-yang energy that had entered his body, cursing inwardly, "This damned scholar is unbelievable! He can use the Pure Yang Thunderbolt so easily, without even bothering to gather his energy... Damn it, when did forbidden techniques become so effective? It's even easier to use than Black Tiger Digs Out the Heart!"
On the other side, Yin Fangxi was also fighting frantically, his true energy surging out endlessly, his strength circulating rapidly, and his palms striking out small thunderbolts one after another. His domineering explosive power even made Yang Ye have to back down.
Yin Fangxi attacked from both sides, and the fireballs from Chunyang Xiaopili came like locusts. Yang Ye frowned, twirling his halberd. His strength turned into softness, and his halberd stance shifted from offense to defense. He blocked the Ziyang fireballs ten steps away by taking three parts of the fireballs in.
Yin Fangxi snorted, "You surnamed Yang, let's see how long you can hold out!"
The thunderous palm strikes layered upon each other, the fierce energy of the Purple Sun surging forth continuously. After receiving dozens of blows, Yang Ye already felt his energy waning. He sighed inwardly, "Back then, even Kong Xiu had to gather his strength for several breaths before using a single palm strike. Today, this mad scholar is unleashing this move relentlessly. The possession by inner demons is indeed terrifying!"
When both sides have similar foundations, skills, and techniques, the speed of their attacks becomes the key to victory. The Purple Sun Fireball has already closed to within five steps, indicating that Yang Ye's defense is being gradually weakened.
The defensive line was reduced from five steps to three steps, and Yang Ye's halberd stance was suppressed and could not be fully utilized. However, Yin Fangxi suddenly concentrated his palm power, and the surrounding purple energy immediately condensed into a ball of light, illuminating all directions and shooting out beams of purple light. Each beam of purple light was a palm strike. Although the palm technique was complicated, the palm power was not weak at all and was extremely fierce. It was the ultimate move that he used in the fierce battle against Lu Mingluan that day - Purple Sun Shines on the Nine Heavens.
Yang Ye knew this move was no small matter, so he immediately switched from defense to offense, gathering all his strength at the tip of his halberd and sweeping it across with a single blow.
Yin Fangxi's palm strikes were complex, while Yang Ye's halberd strikes were simple. In the clash, it was Yang Ye who used simplicity to overcome complexity, sweeping away all the purple light that filled the sky.
But then Yin Fangxi sneered, "You surnamed Yang, this is the moment you've been waiting for!"
As the purple light dissipated, a blazing purple fireball had already gathered between Yin Fangxi's palms, a prelude to the Pure Yang Great Thunderclap.
Yang Ye's horizontal halberd swing left his center exposed, and given that he had used all his strength and couldn't stop now, he unleashed his full power, transforming the sweep into a direct strike. This both concealed the opening in his center and allowed him to use the remaining force to directly attack the enemy leader—his ultimate killing technique—the Soul Strike! Yin Fangxi thrust out both palms and shouted, "Perfect timing!"
The surging palm force met the powerful halberd, and with a loud boom, all the surrounding houses collapsed. The two clashed in close combat. Yin Fangxi clapped his hands together, caught the blade with his bare hands, and clamped the Tiger Fang Breaking Army Halberd. At the same time, he frantically unleashed his Thunderous Force, trying to counterattack Yang Ye.
军神则吐尽毕生修为，奋力推进战戟，势要一击贯穿邪儒魔心。
罡气烈劲相互交缠，僵持片刻，只见尹方犀的天蚕手套寸断裂开，正是被刚劲所切毁。
而虎牙破军戟则开始软化，乃是被紫阳火劲所融。
最终结果便是战戟融，蚕丝断，两大神兵同时报废。
兵刃虽毁，杨烨依旧勇战，一个箭步穿过灼热阳火，猿臂轻舒，一记直拳轰来。
尹方犀顺势推出一掌，封住杨烨重拳。
两人另一只手同时击出，又是拳掌相对，生死恶斗。
双方互不相让，各催内劲，欲压过强敌，形成内力搏杀的凶险局面。
另一边，宗逸逍与袁齐天互有攻守，激战百余回合后，宗逸逍心生不耐，将精纯的紫气猛聚压缩，正是一招纯阳大霹雳！宗逸逍蓄劲十足，灌气入剑，凌空斩落，将原先的掌法化作凛冽斩击，威力更加集中。
紫阳火劲化出一道光芒斩落，阳刚之极，但却在一瞬间由阳转阴，刚猛之中又有阴柔巧劲，除了以往无坚不摧的破坏力外，还有一股粘缠柔劲，敌人一遭锁定，便无法施展轻功巧步躲避，只能被老老实实地接招。
袁齐天怒目圆瞪，逼出巅峰修为，举起钨铁棍便扫了上去。
棍剑对碰之果竟是兵解崩裂，两人神兵尽碎，然而仍不减斗志，拳来掌往，再现近身肉搏。
袁齐天身若玄铁，骨胜金刚；宗逸逍心陷癫狂，劲若烈阳，两人互有胜负，数十招过去，竟也陷入内力搏斗之局。
倏然，一道窈窕倩影横掠而来，出指点在宗逸逍背门至阳穴，宗逸逍忽感后脊暮地一麻，真气如决堤江河般狂泻而出。
「妖妇！」
宗逸逍回头看去，只见出手偷袭者正是鹭明鸾，气得肝火大动，狂态大发，将泻出的真气一股脑转为紫阳真火，可谓算是豁命一搏。
强若袁齐天也被这股热浪逼退数尺，宗逸逍怒吼一声，弃袁齐天而扑向鹭明鸾，势要与之玉石俱焚。
谁知眼前鹭明鸾竟成虚影幻象，宗逸逍志在必杀的一击无故落空，内劲反冲，自伤经脉。
七色光华闪烁，鹭明鸾于宗逸逍背后形体重组，玉指雷霆点中商阳穴，再泄阳火真气。
宗逸逍真气大亏，招式虽猛却徒有其表，袁齐天捉准机会，闪身扑上，五指筛张锁住其肩，宗逸逍盛怒，欲逼出阳火将其震退，但敌强我弱，袁齐天的手掌就如铁钳般牢牢锁住他肩膀，难撼其分毫。
「给我老实点！」
袁齐天倾吐神力，紧锁宗逸逍身形，与此同时，鹭明鸾再度幻化形态，变作一只八翼鸾雀展翅飞入宗逸逍灵台之内。
袁齐天嘿嘿赞道：「这玄神一念也真够省事的，人都不用来，只是想一想就可以了！」
不远处响起鹭明鸾的声音：「袁师兄，若非你豁力拖住他，小妹又岂能得手！」
话音甫落，只看八翼鸾雀抓着心魔飞出其体外。
鹭明鸾飘然现身，玉掌轻翻，发出七色神光便要将心魔收走，却在此时，变故忽生，心魔瞬间消失。
袁齐天讶道：「妈的，见鬼了！」
鹭明鸾花容一沉，说道：「定是魔尊以魔刀异能救走了心魔！」
袁齐天低头看了看掌下的宗逸逍，见他双目紧闭，气若柔丝，忙道：「那这书生呢？」
鹭明鸾走近探了探他脉息，摇头道：「内元透支过度，又连番恶战，命虽能勉强保住，但也可能跟净尘一样，甚至还要更惨！」
袁齐天急忙输过真气，助宗逸逍推宫过血。
另一边紫火逐渐熄灭，杨烨提着尹方犀纵身飞来，袁齐天问道：「老杨，你赢了？」
杨烨道：「方才与他正斗着内力，忽然间他气力大减，给我捡了个便宜。」
鹭明鸾柳眉一挑，说道：「方才我以玄神一念收拾宗逸逍心魔，已被魔尊察觉，他自知尹方犀心魔也难保全，所以干脆将其收回！」
只差一点便可除去心魔，袁杨二人无不惋惜，就在此时，却见孟轲跌跌撞撞地朝这边奔来，衣衫破损，口唇溢血，可见受伤不轻。
杨烨忙将他扶住：「孟教主，发生何事？」
孟轲道：「方才我正与端木罹戈交手，但他却中途撤退，叫我着实费解，所以先来与诸位前辈会合。」
袁齐天笑道：「他也学了心魔大法，自然能感应到这边状况，若再不撤退，待我们腾出手来，他就算想走也走不了啦！」
鹭明鸾叹道：「功亏一篑，若有封神榜在手，今天怎么也能灭掉这两个心魔！」
话说慕容熙和敖晶寻着魔气方向追去，很快便从书院的藏书阁里找到了封神榜。
慕容熙探手去抓，立即感到手掌一麻，心血翻涌，脑海中恶念聚生，竟有被魔化的征兆。
敖晶大骇，急忙一掌推在他背心，将体内龙气输了过去，助其压制魔气。
慕容熙缓过神来，打了个冷战道：「岂有此理，险些我也中招了！」
敖晶取下腰间布囊，道：「快把封神榜装进来，这乾坤袋可以暂时隔绝魔气！」
慕容熙大喜，将封神榜装入乾坤袋内。
敖晶将袋子扎好，递给慕容熙，说道：「慕容公子，你轻功身法好，劳你将封神榜送到城外，我来替你掩护！」
慕容熙点头称是，两人转身便飞离书院，尚未奔出几步便闻身后腥风席卷，伴随着震耳欲聋的虎啸巨浪。
慕容熙脸色一沉，大叫不妙：「他奶奶的，那头老虎不是蹲在东皇峰的吗，怎么跑到这里来了！」
两人回头一看，只见一头白额巨虎飞扑而来，在虎口之前有一道人亦在逃命，定睛一看，正是连云双。
慕容熙顿时明白过来，骂道：「臭道士，你怎么把这畜生引到这边来了！」
连云双跑得上气不接下气道：「没办法，我毁掉几座法坛后就被魔兵发现，好不容易才逃出东皇峰，又被这孽障盯上，只能逃命了！」
慕容熙暗骂一声倒霉，连忙加快步伐逃命而去。
魔虎身形庞大，凶猛无比，所过之处犹如摧枯拉朽，房屋街道无不崩坍粉碎，又是一场劫难。
敖晶沉声道：「慕容公子，你速速离去，我替你断后！」
说话间，摇身一变，化出晶莹龙身，吞云吐雾，盘于魔虎跟前，与之昂首对视。
魔虎微微一愣，随即四肢匍匐，身子蜷缩，正是猛扑之前奏。
慕容熙果断抉择，将云深七重影发挥至极限，身法幻化，如电掠雷行，眨眼便冲出玉京。
不得不说，以身法而言，慕容熙绝对是当代绝顶，想当初铁壁关鏖战，他也曾凭着身法缠斗沧释天分身，可见这套轻功身法高明之处。
回到指定会合处，果见衡城外万僧盘坐组成卍字佛印，齐诵经文，接引、准提居于佛印中心，见慕容熙前来，立即迎出。
慕容熙将乾坤袋递了过去，说道：「二位大师，幸不辱使命，接下来就靠你们了！」
双佛慎重接下乾坤袋，微微躬身行礼以谢。
慕容熙转身再往玉京而去，云深七重影身法一晃，一瞬千里。
路上见龙麟军士兵正不断地猛攻玉京防线。
只看蓝影踏云而立，玉指掐出咒印，乃玉无痕正在施展玉德七智，源源不绝的法力遍洒全军，使得龙麟军士兵作战异常勇猛，再加上有王栋梁明的领军，已连克数个城寨，撕破防线，扣关玉京。
慕容熙忽闻龙辉传音而来：「三少，快进城，到皇宫外静观其变！」
慕容熙叫了一声好，施展轻功遁入城内，在皇宫外围蹲守，谋而后动。
慕容熙刚选好落脚点，便闻龙吟大作，循声抬头望去，却见玉京上空上演一场龙虎斗。
敖晶所化的水晶神龙与十尾魔虎搏杀，然而魔虎已吸纳了木水火土四兽魔元，此刻五行加身，敖晶却是连连受挫，身上水晶龙鳞被打落了不少，鲜血直流。
连云双则在一侧做法援助，但十尾魔虎皮坚肉厚，就算面对敖晶的龙牙龙爪也凛然无惧，更何况他那微薄法力。
魔虎抓住一个破绽，一尾扫中水晶神龙，打得敖晶几乎跌落云层，同时魔虎飞身扑来，张口便咬向水晶龙的咽喉要害。
危难关头，一道紫色雷电掠来，逼退魔虎，只看云海之上，雷电翻涌，金光夺目，正是五爪金龙御雷而来。
金龙一声怒吼，龙尾如雷霆般扫出，将魔虎打得飞退数十丈，但魔虎也是了得，稍晃身躯便站稳。
魔虎一声呼啸，口吐碧光绿华，万叶飞舞，如刃似刀，足以分金裂铁，正是三角苍龙的独门神通。
金龙召云为盾，挡住叶刃，而魔虎再施展龟蛇神通，凝四周雾气，化作水元攻来。
金龙怒目一睁，召来万雷护体，将水元蒸干殆尽。
魔虎甚是兴奋，发出阵阵亢奋的怒吼，向着金龙挑衅。
金龙吞吐云雾，昂首对峙，周身雷光绽放，以静制动。
慕容熙心知这边战局暂无大碍，于是便安心静候下一步行动。
忽闻一声炮响由东门响起，他立即跃上屋顶去看，只见岳彪率军以火炮扣开东门，其麾下刀斧军鱼贯入城，刀斧军悍勇善战，一路长驱直入，已然逼入玉京腹地。
城内守军也迅速做出反应，遣来一军迎击岳彪众人，那为首将领正是金子云。
两人也算是老熟人，见面之后一切试探皆是多余，施展出各自能耐，誓要压倒对方，只看枪风急漩，斧劲挥洒，每交手一招，便会溢出惊人气劲，在两人周围形成一个十丈方圆罡气，割地裂土，生人勿近。
「哎呀，差点忘了龙兄交我的锦囊了！」
慕容熙想起龙辉所托，此刻东门炮响正是开启锦囊之机。
他打开锦囊，里边纸条写着：「东门炮响，四方精兵合围皇城，劳君入宫守候，待宫外骂声响起，皇甫铭必现身紫微宫楼阁之上，便将囊中之信件予之。待他会追来，君务必将人引至冷宫门处！」
慕容熙看了看四周，只闻四周杀声震天，龙麟军已全线攻破玉京外城，凌霄、王栋、梁明、孙德四将各引本部精锐朝着皇城冲来，御林军奋力抵御，铁鹰更是披甲上阵，率众死守宫门。
皇宫内的护城结界也随之开启，与龙麟军展开攻守对峙。
四路大军猛攻皇城，铁鹰倒也沉稳，从容指挥，多次打退龙麟军的猛攻。
慕容熙便趁着城外激战潜入宫内，所幸御林军都调到宫门附近参战，宫内守备略显松懈，慕容熙仗着身法很快便寻到紫微宫，却见此处被魔气封锁，形成一严密结界，要进入却是不易。
慕容熙摸了摸锦囊中的信件，发觉里边是一小沓纸片，似乎装订成巴掌大小的书册，叫他着实好奇，暗忖道：「可惜现在进入城内，神念已被扰乱，无法及时联系到龙兄，若不然也好问一下这书册是什么名堂。」
这时候宫门外响起阵阵吆喝声：「皇甫铭，糊涂蛋，亡国君！」
这声音正是攻打皇宫的龙麟军发出的，声浪滔天，即便是深宫之内也清晰可闻。
紫微宫的楼阁高台上响起阵阵急促脚步声，慕容熙抬头望去，却见皇甫铭气冲冲地走了出来，登高望去，沉声道：「反贼动向如何？」
身旁侍卫道：「回禀皇上，铁元帅正奋力驱逐反贼！」
皇甫铭怒道：「让反贼攻入玉京，俨然已是奇耻大辱，传朕旨意，决不可让反贼踏入皇宫半步，若不能做到，便让铁鹰以死殉国吧！」
侍卫点头称是，拿着令牌便去传旨。
慕容熙抓准这刹那机会，暗施展巧劲，将手中信件抛给皇甫铭。
皇甫铭以为是暗器，掌蕴柔劲，将来物接下。
信件？皇甫铭打开一看，面色霎时涨成猪肝色，瞪着慕容熙道：「贼子，找死！」
说话间，掌心催发真气，将那册子化作飞灰。
慕容熙信内物件起效，不禁嬉皮笑脸地道：「臭小子，有本事来抓我啊！」
说罢转身便跑，皇甫铭长啸一声，纵身追了出去，一干下属想要劝阻却也来不及。
慕容熙步伐如飞，朝着冷宫方向掠去，身后皇甫铭紧追不舍。
「究竟那小册子是什么名堂，激得皇甫铭这般肝火大动呢？」
慕容熙暗自讶异，忽然间想起前不久的一件旧事，当时龙辉请自己喝酒，他被灌得大醉，迷糊间似乎被龙辉哄着画了一本小册子的春宫画，而春宫画的内容貌似跟萧太后和萧贵妃有关，自己当时被灌得迷迷糊糊的，也不知天南地北，拿起画笔就画了起来，而且借着酒劲作画，更是栩栩如生。
酒醒之后，龙辉没提及此事，而那小册子和画笔都不在现场，慕容熙还以为是自己醉酒做得胡梦，便没再计较。
「他奶奶的，真是交友不慎！」
慕容熙回想起这模糊的记忆，不由得面红耳赤，暗骂龙辉不厚道。
身后罡风袭来，牵扯气流，慕容熙脚步亦为之一顿，皇甫铭立即追了上来，怒掌横劈而来。
慕容熙下盘一沉，回身出掌迎击，顿感沉重无匹，险些吐血，不禁暗骂道：「妈的，这昏君吃了春药了吗，劲怎么大得惊人。」
慕容熙见对方掌力沉重，立即巧施步伐，以挪移换位之法卸去对手劲力，同时借力使力往冷宫方向奔去。
「奸贼，休走！」
皇甫铭怒上眉梢，不杀慕容熙誓不罢休，大罗金阙内力逼至巅峰，翻掌一盖，宏大气压笼罩而下，慕容熙宛若身负千斤巨石，身法不复往日轻灵。
皇甫铭一掌限敌，再向慕容熙背心补上一掌，慕容熙双手运舞，化巧劲转卸雄力，倒也稳守不失。
皇甫铭心魔附体，一旦动武，真气便会越转越快，直至突破本源功体，以至于威力大增。
慕容熙连守几个回合后便感对手出招越来越猛，自己的手臂就如灌铅一般，重得几乎抬不动。
「狗贼，朕要你碎尸万段！」
皇甫铭双掌一分，气流在其牵扯之下化作利刃，要将慕容熙千刀万剐。
慕容熙把心一横，气聚要穴，亦爆冲功体，双掌如怒涛般扫出，硬生生撕破皇甫铭的气刃困锁。
走！慕容熙破招之后继续奔往冷宫，皇甫铭怒极恨极，马不停蹄继续追杀。
慕容熙很快便逃入了冷宫，皇甫铭纵身追了进去。
冷宫乃失宠失势的嫔妃居所，环境艰苦，那些久居深宫、娇生惯养的女子岂能受得了，进去后不是病死，便是因忍受不了而自杀，所以此地甚是荒凉，了无人烟，宛若鬼蜮。
皇甫铭追进去后便不见了慕容熙的踪迹，正欲继续找寻之际，忽闻一个熟悉的声音响起：「皇兄，跟我走吧！」
回头一看竟是白翎羽，不由怒道：「贱人，你还有脸回宫来面对列祖列宗！」
慕容熙成功诱敌，立即从冷宫后墙离去，心中不由感慨那损友的妙算，进入冷宫者无不是失势的后宫女子，宫廷也不会费力保护她们，所以这儿几乎没有侍卫是几乎没有，再加上四路大军正在猛打宫门，大部分御林军都赶往前线增援，这里的防卫几成虚设。
另外，又因冷宫处于宫廷内，皇甫铭不会太过留意，若是慕容熙方才逃走的路线是出宫的话，皇甫铭未必会上钩，在由熟悉宫廷环境的白翎羽提前埋伏，使得此地成为最佳的伏击地点。
白翎羽幽幽一叹，说道：「皇兄，我知道你是被心魔附体才做了这么多错事，还是跟我走吧，我们有办法让你恢复过来。」
「放屁！」皇甫铭怒喝一声，拔出佩剑便刺了过来。
白翎羽暗叹一声，掌中长枪一格，封住剑路，再接着使出粘劲，娇咤一声：「脱手！」
皇甫铭只觉手心一麻，佩剑竟被震飞出去。
皇甫铭右掌一开，使出柔劲，将飞出的佩剑吸了回来，同时左掌一带，佩剑便朝白翎羽刺了过来，显然是一招以气御剑。
白翎羽真元一吐，护身罡气逼出三尺开外，将飞剑震开，与此同时，长枪一抖，如同蛟龙出海般刺向皇甫铭。
皇甫铭再度御剑回防，却难挡麒麟神力之浑厚，佩剑被长枪一绞，顿成铁屑。
白翎羽枪式一发不可收拾，摧枯拉朽般直逼而来，皇甫铭大骇，急催内力，双掌虚报胸前，掌心凝聚大罗金阙内劲，竟也挡住了枪锋。
白翎羽微微一愣，叹道：「想不到心魔竟将你强化至此，但皇兄……这般燃烧内元，只会是自伤起身！」
皇甫铭面目狰狞地道：「放屁，朕之力量源源不绝，哪有什么隐患，信不信朕三招内要你狗命！」
白翎羽微微一笑，不予反驳，看在皇甫铭眼中仿佛说不出的轻蔑，气得他再催内功，就在此时，后背猛然传来两股浑厚真气。
皇甫铭大惊失色，回头一看，只见红绿两道倩影同时朝自己袭来，玉手出掌，飘若飞鸿，正是崔蝶与林碧柔。
"Despicable!" Huangfu Ming roared before being struck by three powerful internal forces. First, Bai Lingyu's Qilin Divine Power loosened the protective aura of the Great Luo Golden Palace. Then, Cui Die's Ice and Fire True Qi sealed his meridians, and finally, Lin Birou's Netherworld Scroll obscured his primordial spirit. Huangfu Ming collapsed like a limp rag doll.
Bai Lingyu breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Finally, we succeeded!"
Cui Die said softly with a smile, "Once we get back, we'll dispel your brother's inner demons, and then you, Lingyu, can truly rest easy!"
Bai Lingyu pursed her lips and said, "The old devil is still hiding in my ancestral tomb. I won't have peace of mind until he's gone..."
Lin Birou smiled and said, "Empress Lu has already laid a trap, and she must have already destroyed the magic array inside the mausoleum. In addition, with our husband and the Demon Queen joining forces to storm Donghuang Peak, it's only a matter of time before the old demon Duanmu is defeated!"
Lian Yunshuang began his sabotage at the agreed time, destroying multiple altars in one go. Although the demon soldiers stopped him in time, the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Formation was also damaged, its spiritual power was interrupted, and it was difficult to continue maintaining it.
Not long after the Ten-Tailed Demon Tiger left the mountain, the sounds of dragons roaring and phoenixes singing echoed from the summit of Donghuang Peak, as two unparalleled forces, carrying the primordial yang and illusory yin energies, forcefully pressed down upon the area.
The giant dragon looked down from its high perch and roared at the mountain peak. Its immense true energy trembled into the mountain wall, causing the entire mountain to shake violently, as if the end of the world had arrived.
"Old Demon Duanmu, get out here!"
Long Hui roared, "How dare you, a lowly scoundrel, defile the tombs of the past emperors!"
From the depths of the tomb echoed the Demon Lord's cold laughter: "Heh heh, you've declared yourself emperor, and you still have the nerve to mention the rulers of the Great Heng? Aren't you ashamed!"
Long Hui snorted, "I was forced to declare myself emperor by you, you fiend! If it weren't for you, would the fate of the Great Heng Kingdom have been sealed?"
"Haha, that sounds nice!" the Demon Lord laughed loudly. "Although I am the demon you speak of, I have always served the Huangfu lineage as emperor! Unlike you, who are clearly a traitor and rebel, yet put on such a righteous and awe-inspiring act!"
Luo Qingyan snorted coldly, and with a wave of her jade hand, she sent a blazing phoenix fire into the mountain. The flames ignited the earth's veins, causing lava to churn, and Donghuang Peak was about to become an erupting volcano.
The Demon Lord was taken aback and hurriedly used his power to suppress the lava, thinking to himself, "Huangfu Wuji and Huangfu Zheng are buried in the imperial mausoleum. That brat surnamed Long might have some reservations, but this vixen won't be so soft-hearted!"
Thinking of this, the Demon Lord leaped out of the graveyard, ascended into the clouds, and confronted the dragon and phoenix.
Luo Qingyan laughed, "Demon Lord Duanmu, you've finally come out! Hiding down there for so long, didn't you get suffocated?"
The Demon Lord chuckled and said, "It's quiet down there; it's the perfect place to recuperate!"
Long Hui retorted sarcastically, "Since you find the cemetery so peaceful, why don't you just lie there forever? That would save everyone a lot of trouble!"
The Demon Lord laughed, "Want me to remain in my tomb forever? That's easy! Just summon Yu Xiuting too. With the three of you joining forces, I'll be doomed!"
Long Hui chuckled, "Wouldn't it be even simpler for the Sword Immortal to wait for his opportunity and then send you to your grave with another sword strike?"
The Demon Lord suddenly burst into wild laughter, "That's for the best! Yu Xiuting, I killed your son, why don't you come out and take revenge!" As he spoke, he spread his arms wide, exposing his vulnerable spot, and roared, "Come on, stab me with your sword, and I won't fight back! What, you don't believe me? I keep my word. As long as you come out, I'll still stab you with my sword, without blocking or dodging!"
Long Hui and Luo Qingyan were taken aback, wondering what tricks this old devil was up to now.
Luo Qingyan said, "Old Demon Duanmu, are you insane, or are you stupid?"
The Demon Lord laughed, "Empress, I am neither crazy nor stupid. I was just testing whether Yu Xiuting had arrived."
Luo Qingyan asked, "So, did you figure it out?"
The Demon Lord nodded in satisfaction and said, "I've tested it out; she hasn't arrived!"
Long Hui said, "You're right, she really didn't come. Stop being paranoid and just prepare to die!"
As the saying goes, truth and falsehood are intertwined, and reality and illusion are blurred. Long Hui deliberately revealed the truth in order to once again interfere with the Demon Lord's judgment.
The Demon Lord chuckled: "You've come out in full force this time, determined to decide the fate of the world in one battle. Logically speaking, I have a blood feud with Yu Xiuting for killing my son, so she should be the one to come. But she's nowhere to be seen. Is it that she doesn't want to come, or that she can't come?"
Long Hui's brows furrowed slightly, sensing that there was more to the other person's words than met the eye.
The Demon Lord laughed and said, "In my opinion, the hatred for killing her son has faded a lot for Xiuting. If I'm not mistaken, Young Master Wei has a chance to live, which is why Sword Immortal Yu is not in a hurry to kill me."
Long Hui frowned and said, "You guessed correctly!"
The Demon Lord revealed an even more smug smile: "I have studied the Dao of Life and Death. For the dead to be resurrected, they must obtain sufficient vitality, and the most abundant vitality in the world is found in the mother's womb!"
Long Hui and Luo Qingyan both frowned slightly. The Demon Lord chuckled, "It seems that not only does Sword Immortal Yu not want to come, but she also can't come... If I'm not mistaken, she's already pregnant!"
Long Hui flew into a rage, drew his Reverse Scale Dragon Blade, and slashed straight at the Demon Lord's forehead: "Shut up! Don't go too far with your insults!"
The Demon Lord was already on guard. He used the Emperor Demon Blade to meet the attack, blocking the blade, and said in an ambiguous tone, "A woman's pregnancy requires the union of yin and yang. I wonder which man is so fortunate to have won the favor of the Sword Immortal!"
Enraged, Long Hui intensified his attack, forcing the Demon Lord to retreat several steps.
The Demon Lord still smiled broadly: "Oh, you're so angry, could you be that man?"
Long Hui's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He angrily channeled his true energy and raised his hand to unleash a "Sword Overlord" strike. The sword's force was as heavy as a thousand pounds, causing the Emperor's Blade to tremble.
The Demon Lord secretly used his Buddhist and Taoist demonic body to neutralize the blade's force, while simultaneously activating his inner demonic form to launch a sneak attack on Long Hui's back, intending to force him to turn around and block the attack in order to escape the predicament.
To everyone's surprise, Long Hui ignored them, remaining calm and composed, and continued to slash with his sword, disregarding the inner demons of Yang Ye and Yuan Qitian behind him.
Just then, a clear and melodious zither sound rang out. Luo Qingyan summoned the Cleansing Water Zither, plucked the strings, and the soft sound transformed into silk, trapping the two inner demons.
"Since ancient times, the demon race has had few males, so it's not unusual for sisters or mothers and daughters to share a husband. Judging from their numerous encounters, these two have an extremely high level of understanding, and their relationship is definitely not simple... Since they have this relationship, then this boy's relationship with Yu Xiuting is also not innocent!" The Demon Lord, seeing this, became even more convinced of his thoughts and said, "Haha, what perfect understanding, what a passionate love affair! I never imagined you were so lucky, that even the peerless Demon Queen has taken a liking to you!"
Long Hui continued his pursuit with a dark expression, unleashing a barrage of attacks with his sword, spear, and halberd techniques simultaneously aimed at the Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord wielded the Emperor's Blade with impeccable skill, maintaining his footing and holding his own despite being on the defensive. He continued, "Heh heh, what a charming emperor! He's got both mother and daughter! How delightful!"
Long Hui said coldly, "Save your breath; that's the only way to save your life!"
With a single strike, he harnessed the power of the five elements and the yin and yang, and slashed down directly on the head.
The Demon Lord unleashed his full power, channeling the true energy of the "Great Demonic Handprint" into his blade, and charged forward.
The two swords clashed, each being knocked back. Just as Long Hui retreated to dissipate the force, Luo Qingyan used her ancient strength to pluck the strings, turning the soft sound into a powerful one, and the fierce sound wave struck the Demon Lord's chest.
The Demon Lord coughed up blood and fell headlong from the clouds, but instead used his internal energy to heal his wounds. He then shouted, "Listen up, everyone! That man surnamed Long has committed immoral and unethical acts, having an affair with the Sword Immortal and Demon Queen. He is unworthy to be emperor!"
