In the blink of an eye, they were locked in battle with the demons and the Great Dao Emperor formed from the desolate energy. Both fought with extreme abandon, completely ignoring defense and fighting to the death. Moreover, once they were scattered, they would immediately reform.
"This is……"
The Desolate Evil Emperor stared dumbfounded at the scene before him, feeling a strange sense of familiarity. Wasn't this just a replica of his ultimate move? Although the method was different, the effect was the same.
Being defeated doesn't really damage one's confidence; the biggest blow is being defeated in one's area of expertise. This is exactly what happened to the current Desolate Evil Emperor. It seems he will not only be defeated, but may even be killed outright.
"I also want to thank you for your creativity and for being my sparring partner, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to come up with this move."
Yi Shuihan's grateful expression nearly made the Desolate Evil Emperor spit out a mouthful of blood, and his demonic power surged violently, almost causing him to lose control and suffer a backlash.
"You are shameless; you actually plagiarized my abilities."
Enraged, the Desolate Evil Emperor uttered childish words, and was immediately embarrassed after realizing what he had said.
A battle is a battle, and the methods used are all based on one's own abilities. If his abilities were so easily plagiarized, they would have been stolen long ago. Why wait for Yi Shuihan to come? The fact that Yi Shuihan could do this only proves his strength.
Only the weak look for reasons in others; the truly strong always look for their own shortcomings. As an emperor-level demon, the Desolate Evil Emperor is still considered strong, so he naturally understands this principle.
"Plagiarism? I don't think so! My method is clearly better than yours. If others see this, they might say who's the piracy."
Yi Shuihan smiled faintly, and at the same time, his body moved accordingly.
The Infinite Dao Shadows also summon and manifest the beings that were once killed. However, unlike the Desolate Evil Emperor, Yi Shuihan's move is not condensed with the desolate energy, nor does he possess the desolate energy. Instead, it is condensed with the power of the Dao River. It does not have the desolate awakening associated with the desolate energy, but because of his Infinite Dao, which has infinite possibilities, these summoned Dao Shadows can become stronger, and their strength is not static.
Yi Shuihan's Dao Shadow only retained the Emperor-level Demons; the others were not manifested. In terms of quantity, it was not as numerous as the Desolate Evil Emperor. Relatively speaking, sacrificing quantity would improve quality to a certain extent, which is why they would become stronger. In the future, the more enemies Yi Shuihan kills, the more he can use them to refine this move and make the Dao Shadow stronger.
Without the restraint of the desolate energy transformed into an emperor-level demon and the Great Dao Emperor, Yi Shuihan's own combat power has been fully unleashed, and he directly attacks the Desolate Evil Emperor.
In fact, even if Yi Shuihan didn't make a move himself, the Infinite Dao Shadow technique deduced by the system could have killed the Desolate Evil Emperor. However, he didn't want to do that. At least he wanted the Desolate Evil Emperor to die by his hand, as a reward for the Desolate Evil Emperor allowing him to successfully acquire a killing move. In this light, Yi Shuihan was actually quite merciful. Well, merciful in his own eyes, the Desolate Evil Emperor certainly wouldn't agree with that.
The Desolate Evil Emperor had lost most of his power, and now that his abilities were basically useless, he was far inferior to Yi Shuihan in the fight. In addition, Yi Shuihan had no intention of playing with him anymore, and he was injured after only a few moves.
Roaring in despair, the Desolate Evil Emperor still wanted to make a final struggle and escape.
At this moment, the sound of flowing water rang out, and a black current suddenly appeared. The Desolate Evil Emperor rushed directly into the black current that was closest to him.
The Black Stream was not so friendly. Even with the power of the Desolate Evil Emperor, he was in a terrible state upon entering the Black Stream and was swept away by it.
"Want to run?"
Without hesitation, Yi Shuihan followed and entered the black current.
Upon entering the black current, Yi Shuihan felt a wave of discomfort. Using power within the black current was more than ten times more difficult than outside, making it hard to adapt. Coupled with the impact of the black current, his senses were momentarily skewed, allowing the Desolate Evil Emperor to escape even further.
By the time Yi Shuihan had fully adapted to the Black Flow, the Desolate Evil Emperor had already vanished without a trace.
"What incredibly bad luck!"
Emerging from the black current, Yi Shuihan tried various methods to finally uncover the whereabouts of the Evil Emperor, but all attempts failed, leaving him speechless and sighing deeply.
The mission was to kill the Desolate Evil Emperor, and Yi Shuihan couldn't just go back and report, so he had to continue searching for the Desolate Evil Emperor's whereabouts.
"It seems we need to develop a tracking technique."
Without hesitation, Yi Shuihan began to use the system's deduction and tracking techniques while searching for the Desolate Evil Emperor. He upgraded the observation marks he had obtained from the system to a Great Dao Emperor-level skill.
Five days later,
"Success! Since its predecessor was the Observation Mark, its current name will be the Infinite Observation Mark."
The Infinite Observation Seal has one more characteristic than the Observation Seal: it is very difficult to remove. Even if it is removed, it will reassemble infinitely. With Yi Shuihan's current strength, he believes that there should be virtually no one among the Great Dao Emperors who can remove this Observation Seal in a short time.
Just as he was about to continue searching for the Desolate Evil Emperor, the Desolate Evil Emperor appeared before him, and next to the Desolate Evil Emperor was none other than his old rival, Wu Ye.
“Very good. I didn’t come looking for you, but you came looking for me. That’s exactly what I wanted.”
Chapter 1510, Another Battle Against the Five Leaves
Wu Ye frowned as he looked at Yi Shuihan. Yi Shuihan's reaction to their presence surprised him. His memory of Yi Shuihan was still from their last battle, where he had almost killed him. Although he knew that Yi Shuihan would grow rapidly after breaking through to the Great Dao Emperor realm, it had only been a few years. He didn't believe that Yi Shuihan had the strength to defeat him now, even if he learned that the Desolate Evil Emperor had been defeated.
Compared to Wuye, the Desolate Evil Emperor's eyes were filled with anger and killing intent when he looked at Yi Shuihan. The humiliation he suffered a few days ago was something he would never forget. The sense of defeat he felt at being defeated by his own strength drove him mad. Only Yi Shuihan's death could stop his madness.
In order to kill Yi Shuihan, the Desolate Evil Emperor even contacted Wu Ye, even though his relationship with Wu Ye was not very good.
"Do it, kill him."
Wu Ye and the Desolate Evil Emperor attacked simultaneously, and their attacks were decisive, using their strongest powers without any intention of testing each other.
A black five-leaf wheel floated behind the five leaves, and a monstrous wave formed by demonic power seemed poised to destroy everything.
Beside it, the desolate energy also formed a huge storm, from which countless shapes made of desolate energy rushed out, creating an incredibly spectacular sight.
The Black Abyss was originally pitch black, but at this moment, black and earthy yellow light could be seen. Wu Ye and the Desolate Evil Emperor used their power to break the rules of the Black Abyss.
“gurgling…”
Seemingly angered by the broken rules, the Black Abyss suddenly unleashed hundreds of black currents around it, writhing in the void like countless snakes as they lunged at Yi Shuihan and his companions.
"Infinite Dao Shadows"
Dozens of figures appeared around Yi Shuihan, protecting him in the center and temporarily blocking the demonic waves and desolate aura.
With an intensely excited look in his eyes, Yi Shuihan struck a complex pose, and the Dao River appeared.

A black dot appeared in front of Yi Shuihan and then rapidly expanded, forming a huge crack. Behind the crack was endless darkness, but it was not conspicuous in the environment of the Black Abyss.
At this moment, an Emperor-level demon blocking Yi Shuihan's path was swallowed up by the demonic wave, which crashed into Yi Shuihan and the crack in front of him.
The crack was like the insatiable maw of a glutton, and the demonic waves were its feast; once inside, they couldn't even make a ripple.
"Shadow Gate" is a technique that Yi Shuihan specially developed to deal with the Five Leaf Demon Tao Lang. The principle is very simple: open the door to the world of shadows and transfer Tao Lang into it.
The principle is simple, but implementation is not easy. The world of shadows is an unfamiliar world even to the Great Dao Emperors, especially since the shadow realm has a dark side. The Great Dao Emperors dare not open the shadow realm without authorization, because shadows are not so easy to talk to.
Yi Shuihan only came into contact with the Shadow Realm because his shadow was released back then, and he relied on the system to figure out how to open a door to the Shadow Realm.
"It looks promising, it should be able to..."
Just as he was thinking this, Yi Shuihan was surprised to find that the demonic waves had changed direction and bypassed the crack, crashing towards him.
"So it can be precisely controlled?"
The thought flashed through his mind, and Yi Shuihan relinquished control of the shadow gate, which rapidly shrank and eventually disappeared.
Once again amidst the raging waves of evil, even though Yi Shuihan was much stronger than before, when that familiar, excruciating pain struck, he still found it unbearable.
He gritted his teeth and tried to stop himself from screaming. His face was horribly contorted, like a demon from hell, almost unrecognizable as human.
"This time you can't escape! Struggle! And then you'll be doomed forever."
Wu Ye excitedly watched Yi Shuihan in the waves, but she overlooked the fact that Yi Shuihan's aura had not decreased at all, but was slowly increasing.
"Is this kid really that weak?"
Seeing that Yi Shuihan seemed to be in great pain, Huangwu Xiedi felt both pleasure and frustration, because this only highlighted the strength of Wuye. He didn't want to admit that Wuye was far stronger than him, and he was conflicted.
"Holy Spirit, is there really no way?"
"Yes, but it will take a long time."
"how long?"
"At least one hour."
"It is indeed taking a long time, and I can only try to delay it as much as possible."
Although Yi Shuihan was still in pain, it was really just pain; the demonic waves did not cause him any real harm.
Unlike last time, on the one hand, Yi Shuihan's strength has improved a lot, especially with the creation of the Infinite Recovery Body. The damage from the Demonic Waves to him can be largely offset by his recovery. On the other hand, Wu Ye did not actually enter the Burning Demon state this time, so the power of the Demonic Waves was reduced by a lot. With this shift in power, Yi Shuihan was naturally able to withstand it.
The conversation with the system was naturally intended to get the system to study Wu Ye's ultimate technique. This Demonic Wave still posed a certain threat to Yi Shuihan. Even if it couldn't harm him, he couldn't easily get rid of its influence. Without solving this problem, he wouldn't be able to deal with Wu Ye. If he wanted to kill Wu Ye, he still had to thoroughly study the Demonic Wave.
One reason why Wuye is so difficult to kill is the Demonic Wave. It can be released when escaping to interfere with the pursuit, and its characteristics often delay the enemy for a considerable amount of time.
"What's going on? He's still alive after all this time, and he doesn't seem as injured as we thought."
A few minutes later, Goyo gradually realized something was wrong and became suspicious.
"Goyo, why aren't you going all out? We can't afford to drag this fight on!"
The Desolate Evil Emperor urged, a terrifying thought creeping into his mind: Yi Shuihan was also having Wu Ye spar with him, and might soon unleash a move similar to the Demonic Waves. After all, Yi Shuihan could easily copy even his abilities.
"Burning Demon."
Wuye gritted her teeth and finally unleashed her Burning Demon state, instantly amplifying the power of the Demonic Waves.
This time, Yi Shuihan could no longer ignore the damage from the evil waves, and wounds gradually appeared on his body.
"It should have been done a long time ago."
Seeing that Yi Shuihan was finally injured, the Desolate Evil Emperor breathed a sigh of relief.
Chapter 1511, Destroying Two Demons
"It's only been a few minutes! Holding out for a full hour is a long and arduous task."
Soaked in the demonic waves of the burning demon state, the pain did not actually increase much. Sometimes the pain would reach a certain level and then be difficult to increase further, because the pain had already become numb.
The pain sensation didn't change much, but the damage to Yi Shuihan really increased significantly. Before the Burning Demon state, Yi Shuihan relied on his powerful recovery ability to repair the damage from the Demonic Waves almost instantly, without it accumulating. In other words, Yi Shuihan could stay in that state for a long time. However, after entering the Burning Demon state, the balance between damage and recovery was broken, and the damage could be stacked. Yi Shuihan's endurance was shortened by countless times.
According to Yi Shuihan's estimate, he should be able to hold out for at least an hour and a half. As for what happens after that, it depends on the situation. If things get really bad, he will have to give up trying to buy time, which will significantly reduce the chances of killing Wuye.
Another hour passed. By this time, Yi Shuihan was covered in wounds and looked like he had been through a lot of suffering. His breathing was also noticeably weaker, but he was still far from being completely exhausted.
“Desolation, you attack at the same time.”
Wu Ye's voice was slightly hoarse. Continuously activating the Burning Demon skill was too torturous for too long, and he himself was also finding it hard to bear. To be honest, his current situation was not much better than Yi Shuihan's.
Although the Desolate Evil Emperor was somewhat dissatisfied with being commanded by Wu Ye, he ultimately obeyed Wu Ye's orders and used the desolate energy to launch a ranged attack.
"What? He actually has that kind of strength."
Originally, Yi Shuihan's infinite Dao Shadows were annihilated by the Demonic Waves, but when the Desolate Evil Emperor attacked, they were suddenly summoned again, blocking the Desolate Evil Emperor's power, which greatly surprised both the Desolate Evil Emperor and Wu Ye.
"Don't stop, keep going. With my power, his consumption will be even greater, which will reduce the time he can hold on."
Seeing that the Desolate Evil Emperor had stopped attacking, Wu Ye said this.
That makes sense. After all, summoning the infinite reflections isn't a free process; it consumes some of Yi Shuihan's energy. This means that he has gone from fighting Wuye alone to fighting both Wuye and the Desolate Evil Emperor simultaneously.
That makes sense, but Yi Shuihan can't be judged by common sense. His recovery ability is too strong, and he also has the support of his personal world. In fact, the desolate evil emperor's consumption of him is nothing compared to the evil waves.
It's not that there's no effect, but the impact isn't that significant. It would take at least a few days to have the final straw, but Yi Shuihan only needs less than an hour now.
After half an hour of attrition, Yi Shuihan was not in good condition. Of course, it was not because of the Desolate Evil Emperor, but because of the Demonic Waves in the Burning Demon state.
"I can't go on. It's not that I can't keep going, but there's no point in continuing. If I wait for another half hour, my combat effectiveness will be affected by my injuries, and I won't be the one killing them; I'll be the one being hunted down."
Slightly unwilling, Yi Shuihan still chose the former when faced with the choice between hunting down and being hunted down.
"Huh! Why is the power weakening?"
Just as Yi Shuihan was about to unleash his power, he was surprised to find that the power of the demonic waves had weakened. Upon closer inspection, he realized that Wu Ye had already exited the demonic burning state, either because he had consumed too much energy or because he felt that he no longer needed to continue burning his demonic energy and fighting desperately.
Therefore, Yi Shuihan decisively remained in the demonic waves.
After a while, with only a few minutes left until the hour was up, Yi Shuihan could already see the scene of Wu Ye and the Desolate Evil Emperor being killed.
Suddenly, the demonic waves vanished rapidly.
"what are you doing?"
First came a roar, then a scream.
"I've finally waited for this moment. You'll become my food and me one with me! That little guy will come to join you later, hahahaha..."
Wuye became weak after releasing her burning demonic state, which allowed the Desolate Evil Emperor to seize the opportunity and launch a successful sneak attack. Half of her body was swallowed by the Desolate Emperor, and it seemed that the rest of her body would suffer the same fate.
"Internal strife? They're not taking me seriously at all! Is the Desolate Evil Emperor trying to kill two birds with one stone?"
Having escaped the demonic waves, Yi Shuihan's body recovered quickly. He quietly watched the performance not far away, thinking that if Wu Ye were really killed like that, wouldn't all his previous efforts have been in vain? He felt a little depressed.
Even if Wu Ye survives the sneak attack, his ability to escape will be greatly reduced. The system has not fully analyzed the evil wave, but it has analyzed most of it. Now Yi Shuihan is very confident in dealing with the severely injured Wu Ye.
In order to make sure his efforts weren't in vain, Yi Shuihan suddenly wanted to see Wu Ye make a comeback.
Wuye has always been above the Desolate Evil Emperor in status, so is he really going to fall here this time?
Ultimately, the counterattack did not occur. Wu Ye was completely devoured by the Desolate Evil Emperor. Because of the devouring of Wu Ye, the Desolate Evil Emperor recovered all the energy he had previously consumed, and he even seemed to have become much stronger.
"Your turn, little bug."
The Desolate Evil Emperor was acting strangely, his eyes filled with confusion. Although demons are born destroyers, once they reach the Emperor level, they can control their instincts to some extent. The Desolate Evil Emperor now seemed to be controlled by his instincts.
Is it because of indigestion?
