Chapter 290 - Chapter 290: Hidden

"You've been hidden quite well! This time, I want to see your true identity!" Yu Jin sneered, seemingly thoroughly enraged. Her lightning clone shot straight into the sky.

The few phantom figures also met the challenge seriously.

However, he seemed to have some reservations and never revealed his true form.

Seeing this, Yu Jin's lightning clone attacked even more fiercely, as if she wouldn't stop until she captured this person.

In the Land of Absolute Despair.

Yu Jin's main body also noticeably slowed down.

The three true demons were ecstatic. They had been hiding for years, originally wanting to preserve their strength until the final battle.

But this time.

If they could kill Yu Jin here.

Then there was no need to hide their strength any longer.

The leading true demon roared, peculiar patterns suddenly lit up around his body, and viscous black liquid surged from his feet. This black liquid climbed up his body, condensing into two heads.

Yu Jin's face slightly darkened: "You haven't been idle these years either. You've actually mastered the Art of Three Forms Unification."

"That's all thanks to City Lord Yu's humiliation that day, which allowed me to achieve such a breakthrough," the leading true demon's voice was exceptionally loud.

Yu Jin glanced at the other two true demons. They had also revealed their true demon forms. Clearly, this time, they were truly going all out.

"City Lord Yu... these true demons have made significant progress in their strength. Do you have any problems over there?" Wuxiang's somewhat anxious voice rang in Yu Jin's ear.

To be cruel.

For the human race now, Yu Jin was far more important than Li.

The true demons wanted to hunt down human geniuses.

Yu Jin wanted to use Li and herself as bait to eradicate the demon seeds within the human race.

Both sides were engaged in a gamble.

But the final outcome would depend on strength!

Only the stronger person could achieve their goal.

And to what extent Yu Jin's current strength had reached, even her comrades who fought alongside her didn't fully know.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Yu Jin's eyes held their usual calmness.

Wuxiang then said nothing more.

Yu Jin was never reckless. Clearly, the current situation was still within her control.

"It seems you're determined to kill me! Even with a two-front battle, you are not my equal." Yu Jin sneered, opening her palm. Threads of lightning began to extend from her palm, spreading outwards.

These were threads of lightning.

And also threads of rules.

Two major battles, happening simultaneously.

Li Shuang didn't know the situation in the Land of Absolute Despair. She looked up at the battle in the sky, a hint of shock flashing in her eyes.

She thought she was already very powerful.

But.

Her meager strength was nothing in front of true powerhouses.

This, which was just a clone of the City Lord, had a power so immense that not only she, but even the Grand Elder of the Sword Sect, probably couldn't withstand a single blow?

And that parasitic demon seed.

He could fight the City Lord's clone to a draw without revealing his true form.

Who on earth was this person!

Li Shuang's expression grew slightly solemn.

At the most intense moment of the battle, Yu Jin glanced towards Li Shuang and You Lan.

A purple lightning bolt struck, and the barrier of the teleportation array was immediately lifted.

Yu Jin's cold voice rang out: "Go!"

Li Shuang and You Lan didn't hesitate, rushing directly towards the teleportation array.

However.

Just as the two stepped into the teleportation array, a powerful force struck, instantly knocking them both back.

Then.

A pitch-black long spear, carrying ten thousand points of cold light, thrust towards Li Shuang's glabella.

Li Shuang's expression shifted slightly.

This aura!

It was Xuan Wei!

She didn't know what method Xuan Wei used, but she had been hiding silently nearby!

And only now did she suddenly make her move!

Xuan Wei looked at Li Shuang, who was already powerless to resist, a hint of ecstatic joy in her eyes.

Supreme Spirit Root!

She had waited so long, and this Supreme Spirit Root was finally going to be hers!

Ancestor Xuan Wei had already arranged all her escape routes.

Now.

Her real self was already near the Land of Absolute Despair. Once she killed Li, she would immediately return to Wanfa City and then leave the Wanfa Eye.

As long as she entered the Land of Absolute Despair, could Yu Jin possibly break into its depths again for her sake?

The Supreme Spirit Root! She was determined to get it.

An intense killing intent enveloped Li Shuang, who stood rooted to the spot, unable to move.

Even if she had countless methods, in the face of such an absolute disparity, she had no room to resist.

"Li!" You Lan's face changed, and she rushed over immediately.

However.

It was already too late.

Even if she had a wind spirit root, how could her speed compare to that of a Tribulation Transcending stage ancestor?

Just as the long spear was about to pierce Li Shuang's sea of consciousness, Yu Jin's lightning clone instantly intercepted it.

The direction of the long spear was forcefully shifted slightly, and it actually pierced directly into Yu Jin's chest.

Yu Jin grabbed the long spear, and lightning traveled along the shaft. In an instant, Ancestor Xuan Wei was blasted into dust by the lightning!

"City Lord!" Li Shuang's eyes suddenly changed!

"You go!" Yu Jin pushed Li Shuang with force.

In the void.

A person was hidden among them, his eyes full of consideration.

Li was about to return to Wanfa City.

If she returned to Wanfa City, this encirclement would be declared a failure.

Yu Jin was fighting on two fronts, and both her true body and clone were already severely wounded.

He looked up, exceptionally calmly, at Yu Jin's pale face.

This time.

Was it real or fake?

Was this human race's most powerful individual truly the first to be so irrational?

She would even risk her life to save Li?

Could this be.

A trap.

But...

The City Lord also said that this Li was the daughter of an old friend.

An old friend?

Which old friend?

Could it be Yu Mo's daughter?

If Yu Mo had left behind offspring, then it would be normal for Yu Jin to sacrifice herself for Li.

When he was still a human, he often had such inexplicable emotions swell up.

These emotions could transcend everything, leading him to make irrational decisions.

Therefore.

He was also immensely grateful that he had evolved into a higher species, no longer to be swayed by emotions.

These thoughts were merely instantaneous.

The person in the void finally made his final decision.

The opportunity before him was rare.

Even if it meant exposing his true form, he would keep Li and Yu Jin here forever.

The moment he made his decision, tens of thousands of vines appeared from the sky, instantly binding Li Shuang, who was about to enter the array, just a step away.

In the void.

An old man with green hair and beard slowly walked out.
