Chapter 699: Chapter 242: Join Forces to Slay Demons
After being stabbed by Li Qingming, the Great Demon’s eyes burst with a bloody light. Its grim face turned to gaze at Li Qingming and suddenly, with the fingers of its right hand formed like a blade, it chopped off its bloodied left arm at the base.
Instantly, dark green blood gushed out like it cost nothing, like a surging waterfall, flowing continuously and furiously.
“Holy crap, what is this guy trying to do?” Bo Niu screamed, actually trying to use a Spiritual Treasure to catch that blood.
Little did he know that the dark green blood, like lava, instantly corroded the Spiritual Treasure Bo Niu had thrown. If his Primordial Spirit residing within the Spiritual Treasure hadn’t fled quickly, he would have certainly suffered a loss.
“Holy crap, this isn’t blood, it’s clearly poison!” Bo Niu watched in horror as the Spiritual Treasure turned into liquid, his heart trembling with fear.
An earth-shattering noise erupted, like Heavenly Thunder suddenly burst forth. The ground where the Great Demon stood instantly radiated Black Light, a pungent smell filled the air, and rolling black fog surged continuously. The shattered Heavenly Vault shook violently, as if it was about to collapse.
Zixia saw this and hurriedly yelled, “Not good, retreat quickly!”
However, his words were ultimately a bit too late; the violently boiling thick black fog had already enveloped a hundred miles of the Void with overwhelming pressure.
The space within a hundred miles completely shattered, stars and Meteorites from the distant cosmos came crashing down, all falling within the hundred-mile radius of the Void, as if turning it into a cosmos of its own.
All the black fog began to stir violently again, slowly seeping into the interior of the stars.
Afterward, terrifying pitch-black Demon Castles emerged along with the deafening sound of thunder, rising from the surrounding stars, replacing the original stars, standing tall in the sky!
A series of black castles, similar to the Vampire castles in the Western medieval world on Earth, the only difference being that these Demon Castles were draped with dots of faint azure luster. The Black Light and the dismal green glows covered the skies, casting the area into a gloomy, deathly world of the Demon Realm. Orıginal content can be found at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚑𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥
One by one, sculptures identical to the Great Demon emerged, towering on top of the Demon Castles, wrapped in terrifying Demonic Qi. Amidst the howling cold wind, they painted the air with chilly Yin Energy, sending shivers down one’s spine. They stood in this sinister Purgatory as if they were Demon Slaves guarding the place, their ferocious might soaring skyward.
Furthermore, countless giant skeletons with ghostly flames suddenly surged out from the Demon Castles, accumulating into several Boneyard Mountains, even atop which flowed rivers of bright red blood, like waterfalls rushing back and forth amongst the statues, Demon Castles, and Boneyard Mountains, the stench overbearing!
This place became a space in itself, transformed by the Great Demon into a demonic Purgatory, with only desolate black, wretched dark green, and blinding blood red, monotonous, terrifying, captivating the soul!
The Great Demon howled wildly, and suddenly its left arm flashed with black light, the arm it had severed regenerated, seeming to grow back even more powerful.
This shocking scene blinded everyone’s eyes, leaving everyone stunned beyond words.
“Confucius did not speak of strangeness, forcefulness, rebellion, or gods! How could his students keep silent now?” The completely stupefied, conservative Confucian Scholar Ziqian, somewhat annoyed, pinched his fists tucked in the wide sleeves of his robe and said.
Bo Niu swallowed difficultly, saying: “This Great Demon is not at the Late-stage Saint level of Cultivation; it’s clearly at the Saint Peak. With this, how are we supposed to fight?”
“If we cannot defeat it, we must still fight! We cannot simply let it destroy our entire Yafeng Ancient Star, right?” Yan You, as the second-ranking disciple of the Jishang Academy, quickly made a decision, “Zixia, Ziqian, use your Spiritual Treasures to bind its limbs, Zhong Gong, Ran You, follow me to attack its upper body!”
“Yes, Second Senior Brother!”
Four disciples from Jishang Academy all nodded solemnly in agreement.
“Hold on, Senior Brother Yan You! If everyone else has tasks, what are we supposed to do?” Seeing Yan You assigning tasks to the others, Qingya Fairy couldn’t stand it any longer and urgently demanded in her melodious voice.
“Little girl, this is not child’s play! If things go wrong, it could cost lives. Just stay put and behave yourself!” Yan You dared not let Qingya Fairy take the risk personally, as she was the only direct descendent of the Master, and he did not want the Master to endure the pain of losing a child.
Qingya Fairy’s pretty face turned a flush red with urgency, arguing, “But Senior Brother…”
“Enough! Let’s stick to the plan!” Yan You directly interrupted Qingya Fairy, then turned his head to look at Li Qingming and said seriously, “Senior Qing Ming, please attack its head! If you manage to slay it, our Jishang Academy will forever be grateful for your kindness!”
Li Qingming nonchalantly nodded and said, “It’s nothing. I’m partly responsible for this situation anyway. Even if you didn’t ask, I would have acted!”
“Then, I thank the senior on behalf of the academy!” Hearing this, Yan You bowed again, drew his longsword from his waist, and said, “My fellow disciples, for the glory of Yafeng Ancient City, fight!”
Six figures dashed through the sky in an instant, charging towards the Great Demon.
“Heaven and Earth Righteous Qi Decision, Purple Energy Rainbow Technique, lock!”
Zixia and Ziqian followed the plan, beginning to form seal techniques before they had even reached the Great Demon. With a loud shout, four immeasurable purple qi chains rattled against each other, shooting out from their hands, and instantly bound the Great Demon’s arms and legs.
Naturally unwilling to be restrained, the Great Demon started to struggle violently.
Surrounded by thick demonic qi, a flow of crimson blood qi began to seep out from the surrounding demon castles, quickly pouring into the Great Demon’s body, replenishing its primordial energy, and strengthening its physical power.
Zixia and Ziqian felt immense forces transferred to them, nearly snapping the purple qi chains they tightly held in their hands.
In a panic, Zixia shouted, “Second Senior Brother, act now! This creature is too strong; we can’t hold on for long!”
“Alright, Zhong Gong, Ran You, strike quickly!” Yan You soared forward with his sword, transforming into a purple sword light, and shouted, “Righteous Qi Skill, Sword Destroys the Void!”
A blazing divine radiance burst forth from Yan You, like a stretch of radiant divine sword, soaring up like a heaven-piercing rainbow towards the thrashing and bound Great Demon aiming for its heart.
Sparks flew everywhere as the heavenly divine rainbow made contact with the Great Demon’s skin but only caused sparks to fly, without stirring any waves.
“Second senior brother, move aside, let us handle this!”
Zhong Gong and Ran You, both also being at the Saint Early Stage, one wielding a six-foot Heavenly Blade and the other raising a massive iron rod, attacked the same spot on the Great Demon’s chest that Yan You had just struck.
The Heavenly Blade cleaved through the sky, resonating with the heavens, as ten thousand gleaming sword radiance burst out from the sharp edge. These sword lights were special, each one seemingly possessing its own spirit, and behind them emerged numerous Tao Runes, emitting a purple glow, imprinted onto the sword radiance, terrifying beyond measure, they struck down with lethal force.
On the other side, the massive rod obliterated the heavens, like a towering pillar shaking the sky, radiating auspicious light and immortal brilliance, its weight comparable to a gigantic mountain.
Without the slightest hesitation, both struck uncompromisingly and with fierce decisiveness!(To be continued.
