King Purple-Robe Demon was sent flying. His Emperor battle suit was full of cracks, or rather, it had already been shattered. Only a few pieces of it were hanging on his body.
It was very difficult for a King to destroy an Emperor artifact. This was true. Even a peak King might not be able to destroy an Emperor artifact with all their might.
However, the prerequisite for this was that the Emperor artifact was not damaged or the damage was not serious.
For example, the battle armor that King Purple-Robe Demon was wearing was very, very severely damaged.
Therefore, after this series of attacks, it completely collapsed.
If Chu Yunfan didn't have an Emperor artifact to protect him, he would have been defeated by King Purple-Robe Demon before he could even break through his armor.
This was because it was equivalent to being beaten up on the spot.
