Seeing through Yi Shuihan's plan, the albino demon increased its attack frequency considerably. Countless bone clubs struck Yi Shuihan, and due to the speed, it looked as if countless white dots were constantly flashing on Yi Shuihan's body. When the frequency increased even more, those white dots became invisible to the naked eye and extinguished, as if they were fixed on Yi Shuihan's body.

It has to be said that Yi Shuihan looked like he was being hit by a super move in a game.

"Is it not ready yet? If it doesn't hurry up, I feel like I'm going to get smashed."

A single ant bite won't cause much of a sensation, but being bitten by countless ants can be fatal. Too many ants can kill an elephant, and the albino demon's attacks are far stronger than those of ants. After only a few minutes, Yi Shuihan could no longer hold on.

The injuries accumulated little by little, and the superficial wounds turned into bone injuries. Most of Yi Shuihan's bones had cracks, and many were broken. It was fortunate that he was not an ordinary person, otherwise he would have been crippled long ago.

The infinite regenerative body that Yi Shuihan had created earlier played a significant role at this time. Although its regenerative power was not as exaggerated as its destructive power, it greatly slowed down the rate at which the injury worsened.

A golden light flashed in his eyes, and Yi Shuihan stopped destroying the seal. Then, his body was sent flying backward by the attack of the White Demon.

The white demon's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and it was about to follow up and continue to beat Yi Shuihan.

"Click"

Blah blah blah

"Roar!"

The seal began to completely collapse, and even the albino demon's renewed beam of light to stabilize the seal was to no avail.

"Huh! That direction is the Merchant Alliance, why is there a fighting atmosphere coming from there all of a sudden?"

"The situation at the Business Alliance is dire; we must go and provide support immediately."

"This is bad. We absolutely cannot allow the evil spirits to obtain the Merchant Alliance."

The Great Dao Emperors from all corners of the myriad realms, sensing the battle of the Merchant Alliance due to the broken seal, rushed towards this place.

"Great! The seal has been broken. Everyone, just hold on a little longer. Our reinforcements will be here soon."

"Hold them back, don't let them escape. I'm determined to keep them here, otherwise I'll be letting down Fifth and Sixth Brothers."

The breaking of the seal gave the Great Dao Emperors, who were engaged in battle, a glimmer of hope, prompting them to unleash a small burst of power and temporarily salvage the situation.

Despite having finally completed his mission after many twists and turns, Yi Shuihan was not at ease. The breaking of the seal seemed to have completely freed the White Demon from his shackles. Instead of suffering a backlash from the broken seal, his strength increased dramatically.

Already suffering from numerous injuries, and given the invincible nature of the Albino Demon, Yi Shuihan naturally didn't want to get entangled with it any longer, focusing entirely on healing and dodging its attacks.

The attacks of the Albino Demon are not easy to dodge, especially now that Yi Shuihan is unable to exert her full strength due to her injuries, and the Albino Demon is even stronger than before.

Yi Shuihan was once again subjected to a brutal beating by one person. After several attempts to retaliate at the cost of bloodshed, Yi Shuihan finally calmed down.

This was the first time in Yi Shuihan's life that he had encountered such an embarrassing situation. He wanted to use super teleportation to run away, but when he thought that running away meant he was completely afraid of this guy, Yi Shuihan suppressed the urge to run away.

The analysis of the power within the Albino Demon has been underway for some time, but even with the system's capabilities, it would still take at least several hours or even longer to completely break through the Albino Demon's abilities. Compared to sealing, the Albino Demon's own abilities are far more complex.

"Hey, instead of dealing with me, it would be more worthwhile for you to go after those weaker Great Dao Emperors!"

Unable to fight and only able to defend, Yi Shuihan couldn't vent his anger and couldn't help but say this. It was just a very ordinary piece of trash talk, and Yi Shuihan didn't think that the White Demon would be disturbed. But the White Demon actually stopped attacking him and joined the battlefield on the other side as Yi Shuihan said.

After witnessing the albino demon, along with other evil spirits, instantly kill a Great Dao Emperor, Yi Shuihan felt a sense of guilt; this was truly not what he wanted to see.

"It really has nothing to do with me! I wasn't the one who did it."

With the addition of the Albino Demon, the momentum that had been rekindled due to the broken seal plummeted, and the situation was even worse than before the seal was broken. The Albino Demon's abilities were far too troublesome.

"If the Albino Demon had joined in earlier, we wouldn't have had time to rescue them at all!"

Upon further reflection, Yi Shuihan understood why Bai Huamo initially set up a seal instead of taking the initiative. He probably thought that even without taking action, he could eliminate all the Great Dao Emperors. If he chose to act directly, all the realms would sense it, and even if he eliminated the Merchant Alliance, it would be too late to take everything from them. Moreover, his abilities would be exposed, alerting all the realms. If he secretly eliminated the Merchant Alliance, he could continue to trap them like turtles in a jar in the future, making the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Yi Shuihan watched for a while and felt that it was a bit wrong for him to just watch like this, but he was also a little hesitant to actually fight with Bai Huamo again. He had no choice but to go up and get beaten up. He wasn't stupid, so why would he like it?

Yi Shuihan didn't participate in the battle, and the demons ignored him, even though he looked seriously injured. Demons usually take advantage of such situations.

There's clearly something wrong with this effect; it's possible that the albino demon told those evil spirits how troublesome Yi Shuihan was.

"It's one thing for you to go and kill other Great Dao Emperors, but you actually set your sights on my master. I'll make you do whatever you want."

After the Albino Demon killed three Great Dao Emperors, the Albino Demon began to attack Salama. At this moment, Yi Shuihan could no longer stay by his side to heal his wounds and gritted his teeth as he rushed into the battlefield.

All the demons blocking his way were knocked away by Yi Shuihan. Even though Yi Shuihan was injured, his strength was still far beyond that of ordinary Great Dao Emperor-level demons. The only demon on the entire battlefield who could rival Yi Shuihan was the one who fought Salama with a single blow from the White Demon.

Chapter 1495, Finding the Flaw

Yi Shuihan had an excellent grasp of the battle situation, and his attack arrived at the same moment the White Demon launched his attack.

"We should have thought of this earlier. If we had attacked him while he was using his transfer ability, we could have disrupted his attack. Absorption and release cannot be done at the same time, or more accurately, the transfer and release of different energy sources cannot be done at the same time."

Previously, it was always one-on-one with the Albino Demon, so this was not obvious. Even if Yi Shuihan noticed it, there was nothing he could do. But now it's different. As long as he finds the right opportunity to attack when the Albino Demon is transferring and releasing its power, the Albino Demon's invincible defense will fail.

Of course, if the White Demon is determined to only defend against Yi Shuihan, there is still nothing that can be done to him. However, in that case, Yi Shuihan's goal will also be achieved. His original intention was simply to prevent the White Demon from interfering with his master.

"You dare show your face in front of me again? Haven't you had enough of being beaten?"

The albino demon looked rather grim, not only because a good opportunity to launch a sneak attack had been ruined, but also because he had realized that his weakness had been discovered.

In fact, the weakness of the Albino Demon is not a weakness at all for ordinary Great Dao Emperors, because the speed at which it switches between transfer, absorption and attack is extremely fast. Even if an ordinary Great Dao Emperor knows this, he would not be able to seize this point to attack. At least one of the top ten Great Dao Emperors in the myriad realms would need to be strong enough to do so.

"You left without even saying goodbye. You're not a very professional masseuse!"

This means treating the Albino Demon's attacks as a massage.

Since the albino demon remained still, Yi Shuihan naturally wouldn't attack proactively, as attacking under these circumstances would only be giving the opponent energy.

Even though the demons have the upper hand now, Yi Shuihan is not worried at all. No matter how much the merchant alliance suffers, as long as it is not completely wiped out by the demons, and as long as his two masters are safe.

The signal has already been sent out, and reinforcements will arrive soon. At that time, it won't be so easy for the evil side to leave. In terms of mentality, the albino demon is even more anxious than Yi Shuihan.

As expected, the first to make a move was the Albino Demon. He roamed the battlefield and collected a lot of energy, even more than the time he had seriously injured Yi Shuihan.

"Goodness, if someone gets hit by that, they could die."

Yi Shuihan was quite alarmed. It wasn't that he hadn't thought about stopping the Albino Demon, but when the Albino Demon only activated its transfer and absorption abilities, his attacks would only add fuel to the fire.

"It seems that his absorption is also limited."

Yi Shuihan noticed that after absorbing a lot of energy, the albino demon's aura began to become somewhat unstable.

"Could we burst him out of his wits?"

The idea is good, but its implementation is extremely difficult because the capacity of the Albino Demon is far greater than the attack limit of Yi Shuihan. If the Albino Demon reaches its limit, it will release some energy and will not allow you to burst it.

When the Albino Demon stopped absorbing energy and all three pairs of eyes were fixed on Yi Shuihan, Yi Shuihan knew that the decisive moment was approaching. What he needed to do was to interrupt the Albino Demon the instant it switched to attack mode.

Previously, Yi Shuihan tried to keep her distance, but now she is actively closing the distance so as to have enough time to interrupt Baihuamo.

Bai Huamo knew what Yi Shuihan was planning, and he was confident in himself, believing that he wouldn't be able to find a weakness in a one-on-one situation.

"It's now."

Following his intuition, Yi Shuihan made his move. At this moment, he was not entirely confident in stopping the White Demon, but at least one thing was certain: at such a short distance, even if he failed, the White Demon's attack would not completely hit him; a portion of it would be neutralized by his attack.

Perhaps because he had killed so many Great Dao Emperors, the will of all the heavens and myriad realms had long been disgusted with the evil. This time, Yi Shuihan was very lucky, and he just happened to hit that point, and even triggered an unexpected effect. The external energy of the albino demon was backlashed under the influence of Yi Shuihan's energy.

"puff"

As a result of the backlash, the albino demon spat out white blood—well, at least Yi Shuihan thought it was his blood.

Seeing the albino demon being attacked, Yi Shuihan didn't watch. He first threw a punch at the fastest speed, and after feeling that the power was not absorbed, he completely released his power and unleashed his infinite punching force.

What goes around comes around, and I will repay you tenfold for what you gave me before.

Using both hands and feet, his movements were somewhat unseemly, resembling a thug beating someone up, but the more unseemly it was, the more comfortable Yi Shuihan felt.

The backlash suffered by the albino demon was even more severe than Yi Shuihan had imagined. By the time he was able to use the power of transfer and absorption, he was already severely injured, and his aura had plummeted.

"Cough cough, keep hitting! Keep going... cough cough" While spitting blood, Bai Huamo stared at Yi Shuihan with murderous eyes, having already lost his mind.

"I dislike violence and prefer reasoning to violence. Even if you are a demon, I will not lay a hand on you. Forget about it!"

Yi Shuihan smiled and said with great gentlemanly manners that he felt very pleased with the disheveled appearance of Bai Huamo.

Don't like violence? Try to reason with them!

Hearing this, the Albino Demon almost went berserk. Who was it that beat me so badly before and then told me to give up? It's like they're talking as if I enjoy being beaten.

The White Demon didn't attack Yi Shuihan and couldn't do anything about it. It just stood there staring at him. The heavily injured White Demon stopped causing trouble and quietly healed its wounds.

Soon after, when Yi Shuihan sensed the approach of a Great Dao Emperor, the demons began to retreat.

The Great Emperors of the Merchant Alliance would naturally not allow the demons to leave easily, but the demons were decisive and insisted on breaking away from the battle even at the cost of serious injury.

In the end, only a few demons were trapped, while most of them successfully retreated. Even the few demons that were trapped died by self-destruction. This method of death did not vent the anger of the Great Dao Emperors; on the contrary, it made them even angrier.

The Great Emperors of the Merchant Alliance looked extremely grim upon seeing the shattered state of the alliance. After briefly thanking Yi Shuihan and the others, they went off to take stock of the losses.

"You've done a great service again this time. You truly deserve to be my apprentice."

The Emperor of Life laughed heartily, extremely pleased with himself.

Chapter 1496, Meeting the Chairman

After helping the Merchant Alliance, Yi Shuihan and his group continued their tireless efforts to put out fires and fight against evil spirits.

The actions of the Great Dao Emperors are something that are rarely seen even once every hundred billion years in the past, but now they are happening all over the myriad realms. If it were in the desolate void, it would be fine, as there would be no significant impact. However, the evil spirits would not cooperate, so countless beings died in the aftershocks.

Hundreds of billions, hundreds of billions, trillions...

Every moment, trillions of lives perish, and the entire universe is filled with deathly resentment—evidence left behind by countless beings unwilling to die.

If this death energy and resentment are allowed to remain, it won't be long before many evil beings are born in all the heavens and myriad realms. Although these beings born from death energy and resentment are not as harmful as demons, they are by no means much less dangerous.

"Is the company looking for me?"

Half a month has passed since the war between the merchant alliances. During this time, Yi Shuihan has traveled all over the myriad realms, putting out fires everywhere. Now the war has basically subsided, but everyone knows that this is only a temporary halftime break. Once the demons have digested their gains, they will definitely start another war. Of course, the myriad realms may also finish their integration first and take the initiative to attack.

When Yi Shuihan contacted Xinrui Dizun, an old acquaintance of Yi Shuihan, he noticed that Xinrui Dizun's condition was not quite right. She seemed very tired and her words revealed some weakness.

Yi Shuihan learned the latest situation of the company from Emperor Xinrui: more than ten Great Dao Emperors had died in battle, which was a great loss for such a large company. Of course, the evil side did not gain any advantage either, as the number of Great Dao Emperor-level evil demons who died was several times that of the company's casualties.

Since the outbreak of the demonic invasion, the phenomenon of universal grief has appeared more than a hundred times, which means that more than a hundred Great Dao Emperors have died completely. And that's not all. There are also some Great Dao Emperors who have actually fallen into a state of resurrection. They can also be considered dead, because it is unknown how many years it will take for them to be resurrected and restored.

The demons can kill the Great Dao Emperor, but the Great Dao Emperor can also choose to commit suicide, in which case there is still a chance to be resurrected. Of course, very few Great Dao Emperors will choose to commit suicide.

Yi Shuihan had also discussed with his two masters that, given the current state of the battle, the Great Dao Emperor of the Myriad Realms should have lost about one-third of his fighting power, which could be said to have buried countless trillions of years of foundation.

The demons will naturally fare no better, with even more Great Dao Emperor-level demons dying. However, as invaders, they have the advantage of striking first and the characteristic of growing stronger by destroying and devouring. Therefore, their losses will certainly be less than those of the myriad realms. They can sustain their war through war and cultivate Great Dao Emperor-level demons, while achieving Great Dao Emperor status in the myriad realms is not so easy.

If it weren't for the existence of beings in all the heavens and myriad realms, this one event alone would have plunged all the beings in those realms into despair.

Xinrui Emperor spoke to Yi Shuihan on behalf of the company, saying that he needed to go back to the company because a big shot wanted to see him. He didn't tell Yi Shuihan who it was, but judging from Xinrui Emperor's reaction, the big shot was a real big shot, as Xinrui Emperor was very respectful in his words.

Furthermore, Emperor Xinrui concluded by saying that if he could gain the approval of that powerful figure, she would no longer concern herself with Baihuaxiang and his affairs.

Yi Shuihan wasn't afraid of any conspiracy and agreed to go to the company headquarters with Emperor Xinrui.

……

"Even the headquarters has been attacked like this."

Upon arriving at the mainland where the company headquarters was located again, Yi Shuihan was shocked by the scene before him. Compared to the magnificent and glorious mainland in his memory, the mainland before him was only half the size, and the remaining half was also mostly incomplete. A tragic atmosphere permeated the air, and broken walls and ruins were everywhere, all destroyed by the great war.

Originally, the company headquarters was one of the most complete places in the myriad worlds, but it also suffered heavy casualties in this demonic invasion. Many creatures living on this continent were affected, and some races even disappeared completely from the myriad worlds.

Yi Shuihan had seen far worse scenes than those at the company headquarters, so he quickly regained his composure. The reason he was shocked before was simply because the contrast between the before and after was too great.

"Welcome, Infinite Emperor. I've been hearing a lot about your reputation lately. You've been invincible in battles against demons, killing dozens of Great Dao Emperor-level demons."

"The younger generation is truly formidable! I never imagined that the renowned Infinite Emperor was a junior member of our company."

To greet Yi Shuihan was not only Emperor Xinrui, but also a blue-haired youth beside her, whose appearance was no different from that of a human. However, Yi Shuihan could tell that this was just a deliberate change, probably because he felt that it was better to use this appearance to communicate with Yi Shuihan, a human.

Having achieved the status of a Great Dao Emperor, one's essence has already changed, and one can transform into any form. Even Yi Shuihan is the same, except that he instinctively retains his human form. In fact, fundamentally speaking, Great Dao Emperors can all be considered a race, and their essence is the same.

After the introduction, Yi Shuihan learned the identity of the blue-haired youth: an extremely ancient Great Dao Emperor, known as the Yuanfo Emperor, the origin of Buddhism and Taoism in all the heavens and myriad worlds, with formidable strength, ranking 7th among the Great Dao Emperors of all the heavens and myriad worlds, and also the number two person in the company.

Yi Shuihan initially thought that Emperor Xinrui had sent him to see this Yuanfo Emperor, but after talking with him, he discovered that this was not the case; he wanted to see someone else.

Emperor Xinrui was just an ordinary Great Dao Emperor, far inferior to Emperor Yuanfo. Emperor Yuanfo was the main person in charge of welcoming Yi Shuihan this time. The reason for bringing Emperor Xinrui along was simply because she had some relationship with Yi Shuihan, or more precisely, considering the relationship between Baihuaxiang and Yi Shuihan.

Afterwards, Yi Shuihan was taken by Yuanfo Emperor to the depths of the headquarters, to a special world.

"Go ahead! The chairman is waiting for you inside."

The answer is revealed: the person who wants to see Yi Shuihan is the company's chairman, the number one figure in the company, the one in charge, and the strongest person in the company besides the founder.

"Such a rich spatial aura. Is this really the Void Emperor who achieved the Great Dao Emperor status through the Great Dao of Space? He is even more powerful than my master, a big shot who ranks third among the Great Dao Emperors in all the heavens and myriad worlds."

Chapter 1497, Supreme Void Emperor

Yi Shuihan had only heard of the name of the Supreme Void Emperor, and knew nothing about his specific information, appearance, personality, etc.

The Supreme Void Emperor is very ancient and mysterious. Even most of the company's employees don't know that the chairman is the Supreme Void Emperor. Only when one's strength reaches the level of a Great Dao Emperor will one be told the chairman's name. Even then, most people only know the name. Many Great Dao Emperors don't even have the qualifications to meet this chairman.

Even Yi Shuihan only learned not long ago that the company's chairman was this Extreme Void Emperor. It was from a casual conversation with his master that he learned about it. At that time, his master Salama was quite wary when he mentioned this Extreme Void Emperor.
