"Immortal, save us!" "Please, Immortal, eliminate the monster!" "Immortal, save us! Save us!"
Seeing Li Yu arrive, everyone was overjoyed and continuously pleaded for help.
"Grandmaster, have mercy! Save us from our suffering!" Zhou Yi prostrated himself on the ground, looking at Li Yu with excitement.
"No need for formalities, stand up," Li Yu waved his sleeve, lifting Zhou Yi with a force. He then turned to the others, smiling and nodding, "Everyone, do not panic. Since I am here, you will be fine."
"Roar..." Evidently, the crocodile ancestor did not agree with Li Yu's statement.
A deafening roar sounded, and a massive figure, as large as a mountain, charged through the air with immense ferocity and boundless bloodthirst.
"Ah..." The people on the Five-Colored Altar screamed in fear, trembling all over.
"Evil creature!" Li Yu raised an eyebrow, pointing at the rapidly approaching crocodile ancestor, and shouted, "Evil creature! How dare you act recklessly!"
Li Yu stood with his hands behind his back, extending his right hand with fingers like a sword, and gently slashed at the crocodile ancestor's mountain-like figure.
"Clang..." A sword cry echoed through the sky.
A brilliant sword light shot up into the sky, slicing through the storm, parting the clouds of dust, and tearing the vast sky.
With this single slash, the storm subsided, the dust clouds dispersed, and the starry sky reappeared.
"Roar..." The crocodile ancestor let out a deafening wail, its massive figure twisting wildly, with blood splattering like raindrops, shining brilliantly.
"Grandmaster is mighty!" Seeing Li Yu easily injure the crocodile ancestor, Zhou Yi was overjoyed and quickly congratulated him.
"Immortal is invincible!" "Immortal is unmatched!" The people on the Five-Colored Altar also cheered, smiling happily.
"A minor effort, nothing to boast about," Li Yu said with a light smile, though inside he was trembling, his hands and feet starting to shake.
"It was only injured? Even using the maximum power of the Immortal Sword Heavenly Pool's sword energy, it only wounded it?"
Li Yu maintained a calm exterior but was secretly nervous, "Wasn't the Immortal Sword Heavenly Pool supposed to be able to break all things with one slash? Why couldn't it kill a demon saint?"
"Roar..." After being injured, the crocodile ancestor let out another roar, its demonic energy swirling, darkening the sky.
With a clang, the black scales transformed into a suit of dark golden armor covering its entire body.
The demonic energy receded, and a human figure appeared on the ground.
This was a tall, burly middle-aged man, standing two meters high, clad in armor, looking like a war god.
"Roar..." The middle-aged man, resembling a god or demon, landed on the ground and let out a thunderous roar. The ferocious and violent aura surged like turbulent waves, shaking the heavens and earth.
"Ah..." The people on the Five-Colored Altar screamed again, frightened out of their wits.
"Humph!" Li Yu snorted coldly, and a wave of serene, pure, and righteous energy spread out like ripples.
The gentle yet firm energy soothed everyone's minds, dispelling their fear.
"Thank you, Grandmaster. Grandmaster is mighty!" Zhou Yi, who was also frightened by the crocodile ancestor's aura, felt relieved after being washed over by the energy, and gratefully thanked Li Yu.
"No need for formalities," Li Yu nodded to Zhou Yi, feeling a bit awkward inside. That technique was clearly from those bald monks, not fitting for a grandmaster of the Dao. But Li Yu had no choice; facing the crocodile ancestor, he dared not recklessly use his energy. He could only use the techniques from the broken Buddhist artifacts.
"Wretch, how dare you hurt me?" The tall, burly middle-aged man stared at Li Yu, his blood-red eyes filled with endless ferocity. As he stepped forward, the air around him surged with his monstrous aura, making him look like a demon god.
"This monster is so strong?" Li Yu felt a bit nervous inside, but he couldn't show fear now.
"Wretch!" Li Yu shook his sleeve, pointing at the crocodile ancestor and scolding, "Wretch, you were suppressed by Shakyamuni for a thousand years and still haven't repented? I gave you a light punishment to let you mend your ways. If you remain obstinate, I won't hold back."
"Humph! A mere ant who borrowed a strand of Chi Songzi's sword energy dares to boast!" The crocodile ancestor sneered ferociously, stepping closer, "Ant, I will let my children tear you apart bit by bit."
"Damn, he saw through that I used Chi Songzi's sword energy?" Li Yu felt a chill. He had already used the maximum power of the Immortal Sword Heavenly Pool's sword energy, but it only injured the crocodile ancestor, not killed it.
Chi Songzi's swordsmanship was indeed unmatched, but the sword energy in the Immortal Sword Heavenly Pool was not the deadly sword energy unleashed by Chi Songzi, but the sword energy that naturally emanated while practicing and comprehending the sword.
Practicing and killing are different. With the intent but without the killing intent, the sword energy in the Immortal Sword Heavenly Pool was inherently lacking. It could cut through anything below the saint level, but it was insufficient against a saint-level opponent.
"Using Chi Songzi's sword energy against the crocodile ancestor, even if it's a fair fight, it would be a long battle with a last-minute breakthrough. Such a style does not fit a high master's demeanor at all."
Li Yu glanced around subtly, making up his mind, "If I can't leave Zhou Yi with an invincible impression, given his nature, he might become a traitor someday."
"More importantly, my strength is too weak. If I get hit by the crocodile ancestor, I won't even have a trace left. So..."
"Wretch! You remain unrepentant, so don't blame me for being ruthless." Li Yu looked at the crocodile ancestor with a hint of pity, sighing and shaking his head, "I haven't killed in many years, but today I will make an exception for you!"
With a look of compassion, Li Yu waved his hand, and a green aura flew out, transforming into a round ring that spun around and struck the crocodile ancestor's head with a clang.
"Thunk!" The crocodile ancestor's eyes glazed over, and it fell to the ground, lifeless.
"Huh... is it over just like that?" The people on the Five-Colored Altar were dumbfounded.
The once fearsome and godlike demon, the mighty monster, was killed so easily with a single tap?
"Grandmaster is mighty!" Zhou Yi, filled with awe and respect, prostrated himself on the ground.
Although he had believed in Li Yu's grandmaster identity by about eighty or ninety percent, he still had some doubts. But seeing this ring and its signature technique, he no longer had any doubts.
This was clearly the "Diamond Ring"! Besides the Grand Supreme Elder, who else could use this signature technique?
"The Immortal is mighty!" The people on the Five-Colored Altar also respectfully bowed.
"Rise!" Li Yu laughed inwardly, feeling that his performance was flawless.
