Frustrated Thousand Illusion Demon Master 2

Xu Yan realized shortly that, this battle cry of the dragon had nothing but a loud sound.
It didn’t possess any strength to kill enemies!
However, as his golden dragon emerged and hovered mid-air, looking downwards, the haunting lute sound halted abruptly.
The gender-ambiguous Illusion Mage, with eyes full of dread, exuded a series of faint waves from his body, his energy surging as he gripped the lute in his hand.
A chilling light burst forth from the lute.
“Who are you? Why are you meddling in this matter? Did you also kill our Grandmaster of the Demon Cult?”
The voice of the Illusion Mage was so melodious and warm that it could be a man or woman speaking.
But Xu Yan paid no attention to the gender of his opponent. All he wanted was to continue comprehending the art of sonic killing, to master the essence of the dragon’s war cry.
He even planned on incorporating the art of sonic killing into his Sword Intent of Mountains and Rivers.
A silent mountain range and river had no life, lacked some artistic conception.
Listening to the illusory demonic music, Xu Yan had an epiphany. If his Sword Intent was vibrant rather than silent, he’d be one step closer to mastering the second realm of Sword Dao – the Heart Sword Realm.
So, when the Illusion Mage stopped playing his lute, he was discontent.
“Why did you stop playing the lute? It sounded pretty good, don’t stop, continue. I’m in a good mood; 1 won’t kill you.”
Xu Yan frowned and said.
The muscles on the Illusion Mage’s face twisted in anger. Arrogant brat, treating him like a music player?
Why should he continue?
Xu Yan thought he relied solely on his demonic music?
No one had managed to survive his demonic music, thus, no one had forced him to resort to his true strength!
“Boy, you’re the first to insult me so, you must die!”
His figure turned elusive, projecting layers of illusionary shadows. Dazzling icy lights soared from the lute, raining down like a meteor shower.
Du Yuying gasped in fright, realizing that the Illusion Mage’s true strength lay beyond his music?
What kind of kill technique was this!
The icy lights rained down, inescapable and undefendable.
All attacks aimed at Xu Yan.
Yan Kuan, standing at the back, was taken aback. Even at his peak condition, he wouldn’t have stood a chance against that attack!
But remembering how Xu Yan easily killed a Grandmaster planted hope in his heart.
Boom!!!
The Golden Giant Dragon roared from Xu Yan, leaving tattered scars as it twirled amidst the curtain of icy flashes.
Seeing that made Yan Kuan’s heart tighten!
Du Yuying’s face changed slightly, revealing a look of worry.
The invincible Golden Giant Dragon was now wounded and wounded repeatedly and seemed unable to hold on much longer.
“Your strength is not weak, in fact, you are the strongest Grandmaster I have ever encountered.”
Xu Yan acknowledged the strength of the Illusion Mage.
He sighed inwardly, reflecting on the powerful peak Grandmasters of the Inner Domain.
Although Xie Lingfeng was also a Grandmaster, he was too young and had only recently entered the Grandmaster realm. There was still some distance from a peak Grandmaster!
“Hmph!”
The Illusion Mage snorted, his voice echoing from all directions.
His figure doubled, creating a barrage of icy flashes.
At the same time, a cold light burst forth from the lute, growing longer and longer, morphing into a gleaming sword. Traces of sharp intent began to multiply.
Surrounded by the quaint tea pavilion, it hovered around Xu Yan.
Any moment now, it would strike, completely annihilating the enemy.
“This guy is a bit strong. He is a Grandmaster of the Demon Cult, but what he’s cultivated isn’t a killing technique. This must be one of those idiosyncratic Martial Artists within the Demon Sect.
“If I were to smack him with all my strength, he would die instantly. However, he won’t be able to play his demonic music, even if I injure him. The demonic music he plays when injured will inevitably become worse-”
Xu Yan stated, feeling conflicted.
Attack too aggressively, and he risked killing the Illusion Mage.
Attack too weakly, and his opponent would think him incapable and fail to compel the music out of him.
Xu Yan appeared to be in a dilemma, while the Golden Giant Dragon defended against the Illusion Mage’s attack and evaluated his strength, pondering himself as to how much strength he should exert just to subdue the Illusion Mage without injuring him severely, forcing him to continue playing the music.
The resulting damage to the Golden Giant Dragon increased, threatening its existence with each passing moment.
The Illusion Mage eyed him coldly, “Boy, I will tear you limb from limb!”
He was feeling shocked within; this Golden Giant Dragon was truly remarkable, what cultivation technique is this?
Its majestic aura was akin to a True Dragon’s coming into being.
However, it was still far from being a True Dragon.
Yan Kuan looked grave, “The Illusion Mage is too strong. It seems he can’t hold on for long, what shall we do?”
Du Yuying was also worried and her heart was filled with nervousness.
Yan Kuan gritted his teeth, his aura flaring with determination as he stepped forward, saying, “Young brother, I will risk my life to hold off the Illusion Mage. You make a run for it with Miss Du, right?”
Xu Yan looked at him strangely and said, “You’re seriously injured, are you sure you’ll be able to fend it off? You won’t, erm…just get killed instantly?”
Yan Kuan felt as if he had a lump of old blood stuck in his throat, suddenly his injury seemed to aggravate.
Though the words were harsh, it seemed quite plausible that in his current state he might just drop dead with a thud!
His face flushed with shame.
“Am I really still a Grandmaster? Why is the gap so huge?”
Yan Kuan felt tired deep down, a feeling of utter disillusionment creeping over him.
A hundred years of diligent practice in Martial Arts and this is what it has come to?
Bang!
The Golden Giant Dragon was shattered.
“Kid, it’s time for you to face your doom!”
The Illusory Demon Master smiled coldly. His flute released a chilling glare as he attacked.
“I would risk my own life to block this attack!”
Yan Kuan had a determined look in his eyes, ready to sacrifice his life to withstand the attack of the Illusory Demon Master.
But then!
What did he see?
A bigger Golden Giant Dragon appeared out of nowhere, blocking all the attacks!
Thud!
Yan Kuan coughed up blood!
Just a moment ago, he was ready to give up his life, completely disregarding the worsening of his injury. But before he could make a move, Xu Yan summoned a bigger Golden Dragon, blocking ail the attacks!
You still have hidden strength?
Why do you have a troubled look on your face, as if you’re considering if you should leave A/Iiss behind and escape?
Yan Kuan’s eyes moistened. His injuries had recovered a bit over time, but now they’ve worsened again!
Xu Yan gave him a strange look. Why was such a Grandmaster so frail?
“Yan Kuan, are you okay? There shouldn’t have been any offensive energy that affected you, right?”
“I’m fine. Just got a little excited and my injury acted up,” Yan Kuan wiped the corner of his mouth.
With a despairing look in his eyes, he re-entered the carriage to recuperate his injuries.
The expression on Illusory Demon Master’s face changed several times. How could another Golden Giant Dragon suddenly appear?
And it seems… stronger?
He gritted his teeth, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
“Break!”
In that moment, he erupted, spraying a glaring cold light from his flute, viciously bombarding the Golden Giant Dragon.
Thud!
The Golden Giant Dragon shattered.
“Kid, you give me…”
The Illusory Demon Master came at him with a murderous grin, only to find another Golden Giant Dragon appearing, stronger than the previous one.
He was dumbfounded.
Suddenly, a second Golden Giant Dragon emerged.
It coiled around him, its terrifying aura surging incessantly.
Sealing his escape route.
The Illusory Demon Master’s face changed colors again. The moment he moved to fly away and escape, another Golden Giant Dragon appeared above his head!
He’s not his match!
Now there was completely no way to escape!
“Illusory Demon Master, how about a deal?”
Xu Yan revealed a smile, he had finally blocked the Illusory Demon Master’s escape route.
“What kind of deal?”
Illusory Demon Master’s face was dark, it seemed he had fallen into a trap!
“You continue to play the Illusory Demon Music for me, if I’m satisfied I’ll let you go!”
Xu Yan said with a smile.
“You dare to insult me? I, the Illusory Demon Master, am not a busker!”
The Illusory Demon Master was livid!
“Then do you want to live?”
Xu Yan asked with a stern gaze.
The Illusory Demon Master was seething with anger. Where the hell did this freak come from!
“If you want to live, play for me, if not, I’ll turn you to ashes!”
Xu Yan said coldly.
“I want to live!
The Illusory Demon Master gritted his teeth and responded..
