The roar of the Purifying Dark Demon in the distance grew louder, and the trembling of the canyon’s rock walls intensified.

Liou Yuan finally glimpsed the figure of a golden-robed youth deep within the canyon, within his field of vision.

His body seemed to merge with the wind, flashing dozens of zhang away with each movement.

This speed of his body technique was more than twice as fast as Liou Yuan’s Treading Flowing Waves in the Small Success realm.

Liou Yuan watched in awe, repeatedly exclaiming: "Wind Acupoint and Thunder Acupoint are indeed the fastest of all Star Acupoints."

Before long, amidst the tremors of the canyon, a huge demonic figure appeared behind the golden-robed youth.

Its skin was red-brown, its upright form was as tall as the Fifth Peak Shoushan Tower, and its figure was as majestic as a mountain, causing the rock walls beside Liou Yuan to tremble with each step.

The red-brown skin seemed like stones hardened by the passage of time and the scorch of battle, rough and riddled with cracks.

Its large, twisted head had eyes that glowed a starkly contrasting ghostly blue light, akin to burning flames, emanating endless fury.

Its mouth was agape at this moment, showing jagged, sharp stone teeth, with roars that were deafening, whipping up gales like wild winds.

Its heavy legs stomped on the ground, leaving deep footprints with each step, raising clouds of dust, as if the entire canyon trembled under its rage and power.

Liou Yuan looked solemnly at that being akin to a Demon God, murmuring its name: "Purifying Dark Demon!"

Previously, when it slept beneath the canyon wall at the end, its true size was indiscernible.

Now, with its full appearance, it seemed the canyon passage could hardly contain its body.

Each stride covered several dozen zhang, and it occasionally spat ghostly blue flames from its mouth, attacking Tuoba Xin.

Fortunately, Tuoba Xin was agile enough to evade every critical moment.

The emitted flames touched the canyon’s rock walls, instantly melting the rocks.

The terrifying heat permeating made the cold canyon gain a touch of blistering heat.

"It’s coming!" Seeing the distance between the person and the demonic creature closing in on his Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array, Liou Yuan held his breath, activating the Night Concealing Mask to its fullest, even hiding the fluctuation of his Spiritual Power, as if merging with the rock wall beneath him.

Tuoba Xin, unaware of how he had enraged the Purifying Dark Demon, relentlessly chased after him, without a moment of pause, stepping into the array arranged by Liou Yuan.

As its legs, thick like stone pillars, stepped into the array’s range.

"Activate the array!" Liou Yuan’s eyes flashed with bright light, forming a spell in his hand.

Buzz! The Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array and Earth Mother Prison Array activated simultaneously.

Golden brilliance erupted from the base of the array, like a giant light pillar descending from the sky, engulfing the entire body of the Purifying Dark Demon.

The fierce golden light spread out like Sword Qi, overwhelming the Purifying Dark Demon, hitting its coarse skin seemingly roasted by fierce flames.

Ding ding ding~ A continuous barrage of sounds instantly echoed throughout the canyon.

At this moment, the attack power of the Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array was just at the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer level, not enough to break the Purifying Dark Demon’s defense, with the golden light only leaving faint whitish marks on its skin.

The massive force made its form tilt slightly.

Tuoba Xin was also within the array at this time, but under Liou Yuan’s control, the array naturally wouldn’t attack him.

Seizing the momentary distraction caused by the array’s disturbance, he let out a long cry, his voice brimming with excitement.

"Celestial Wind Fury!"

Swish! Gale force winds suddenly rose.

Within the Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array, bluish Spiritual Power suffused every corner of the array, its hue nearly overwhelming the glow of the array.

Liou Yuan, seeing Tuoba Xin make a move for the first time, stared unblinkingly at the golden figure, afraid of missing any detail.

The golden-robed youth stood amidst the vast whirlwind of Spiritual Power, with bluish lightning beginning to cling to him.

The Wind Acupoint, Thunder Acupoint, and Wood Acupoint are all categorized within the same Great Five Elements.

So Liou Yuan wasn’t surprised that Tuoba Xin’s magic could summon the power of thunder.

Watching as the youth grabbed celestial thunder, he unleashed hundreds of streaks of lightning glow towards the Purifying Dark Demon enveloped by the wind swirl.

The combined might of thunder and the Refined Gold Mountain-breaking Array managed to make the massive form of the Purifying Dark Demon slightly bow.

Wherever the lightning struck, dented depressions appeared, with blue traces of blood splattering.

"He can break through the Purifying Dark Demon’s defense." This was undoubtedly exhilarating news, causing Liou Yuan’s spirit to stir, as he changed the spell controlling the Refined Gold Mountain-breaking Array.

The power of the Earth Mother Prison Array spread into the Refined Gold Mountain-breaking Array.

The Refined Gold Mountain-breaking Array, initially at Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer power, saw its brilliance surge dramatically with the boost from the Earth Mother Prison Array.

Vast golden light, combined with Tuoba Xin’s magic, submerged the Purifying Dark Demon.

This time, the Refined Gold Mountain-breaking Array’s power finally managed to injure it.

Puff puff puff~~ After the golden light, gashes exploded on the Purifying Dark Demon’s body.

Yet neither Tuoba Xin’s attacks nor the power of the Refined Gold Mountain-breaking Array mattered.

The wounds left on the Purifying Dark Demon’s body were immensely trivial compared to its gigantic size.

Instead, the Purifying Dark Demon was thoroughly enraged by the injuries, spewing blue flames from its mouth filled with sharp stones, instantly engulfing the array’s range.

Tuoba Xin’s Wind Blade and Thunder, along with the golden light of the array’s power, encountered the blue flames and were instantly obliterated into nothingness.
