Chapter 163 - 163 The Road to the Netherworld Is Long, Forgive Me for Not Seeing You Off
If not for the fact that Big Black Peak was made up of a strange material and its strength and toughness far exceeded that of ordinary mountain rocks, this entire area might have been completely submerged by debris before the battle ended.
“Oh oh oh… oh oh…”
After an intense battle, two despicable humans were torn apart and died on the spot. As for the demon snake disguised as a human, its demon core was devoured by the Ever-changing Demon Wolf, and its flesh and blood turned into nutrients for his healing.
The Ever-changing Demon Wolf lay weakly on the messy ground, digesting the majestic strength contained in the demon core. For a moment, the Ever-changing Demon Wolf could not help but feel a little lost, “Why did Qing Lin join forces with the humans… to suddenly attack me?”
This question puzzled him.
In disputes between demon beasts, humans were rarely allowed to get involved. In their opinion, for demon beasts who advocated strength, borrowing strength from the humans to defeat their enemy was nothing honorable, but rather a considerable humiliation!
However, Qing Lin did just that!
“Forget it, there’s no need to think so much. Once I digest her demon core, my strength will increase by another level. When that time comes…”
The Ever-changing Demon Wolf felt a little strange. By right, after devouring Qing Lin’s demon core, the cultivation and energy that he had expended in the battle should have recovered bit by bit.
However, at this moment, he felt like he was in a daze. It was as if he had just spent his energy intensely and was quickly falling into a state of silence.
“What… exactly… is wrong…?”
Amidst his intermittent thoughts, the thoughts of the Ever-changing Demon Wolf sank into a state of silence.
In a daze, he opened his eyes again.
From the distant secret passage, a demon ape walked out with two human cubs under its arms. Then, when it saw the puzzled gaze of the Ever-changing Demon Wolf, the demon ape laughed.
“Respected lord, I heard from the human countries…”
“Strange, I seemed to have seen this scene somewhere before?”
The doubts in the heart of the Ever-changing Demon Wolf grew more and more. Suddenly, he frowned slightly, as if he had thought of something but yet could not recall anything at the same time.
Listening to the demon ape’s narration, the Ever-changing Demon Wolf had a sudden thought. He spoke almost instinctively.
“Get them to take off all their clothes here.”
The demon ape and the two human cubs were stunned, and strange expressions appeared on their faces.
Suddenly, the demon ape sighed. “Wolf King… why did you discover the abnormality so early?”
The Ever-changing Demon Wolf immediately stood up with his wolf fur standing on end. “What nonsense are you guys…”
At this moment.
An unprecedented dizziness hit him.
The Ever-changing Demon Wolf suddenly froze on the spot, its body trembling slightly. Its eyes sometimes struggled and sometimes revealed bloodthirstiness. In just a short moment, the clarity was quickly suppressed and there was only confusion left in the end.
“Is it over?”
“It should be over.”
In the vast empty grotto, the demon ape and the two little ones looked at one another.
After a few moments, seeing that the Ever-changing Demon Wolf no longer had any reaction, the three of them finally heaved a sigh of relief. Their figures gradually faded and finally completely disappeared.
“Done.”
In the world outside.
Feng Xia heaved a sigh of relief. Beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead. Zhu Youniang looked at him from the side and gently spat out a few white threads. She weaved them into a white handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Feng Xia’s forehead.
They tiptoed forward. Over there, the Ever-changing Demon Wolf which was more than a hundred feet long lay on the ground with his body curled up. His aura was stable, as if he had fallen into a beautiful dream.
A bloody hole could be seen on the demon wolf’s forehead. There was half a sword hilt exposed and the word “Jinghua” could be vaguely seen.
The Ever-changing Demon Wolf did not seem to notice the foreign object on his forehead. He just lay there quietly, breathing evenly.
Next to the demon wolf, Qing Yue heaved a sigh of relief. “The first time he tried to slap me, I thought I was going to die…”
The result was that Feng Xia had dragged the Ever-changing Demon Wolf into an illusion using the hilt of the Jinghua Sword as the activator.
What happened next was just a huge illusion that wore down the wolf king’s resistance over and over again.
It was different from the previous situation. At that time, Feng Xia was in his own zifu. It was equivalent to fighting on his home ground and he had a natural advantage. Moreover, he only had to face a soul fragment and not an incarnation that had already been refined.
However, the Ever-changing Demon Wolf was a finished incarnation. The strength was naturally incomparable to what he faced earlier.
Therefore, Feng Xia had no choice but to use such an extraordinary method to ensure that no accidents would happen.
“Fellow wolf practitioner.”
At this moment, Feng Xia walked forward step by step. With a compassionate expression, he said slowly, “The road to the netherworld is long. Take care, fellow practitioner. I won’t send you off.”
Swish, swish, swish—
The Perfect Sword Heart instantly erupted as the Peerless 13 Swords turned into a sword wheel, shining in the sky like a scorching sun!
At the same time, Mo Lianque and Qing Lin, the two Primal Core Realm cultivators, and everyone else present erupted with their full strength, displaying their strongest attacks and directing them at the Ever-changing Demon Wolf!
“Howl…”
The Ever-changing Demon Wolf struggled a few times, as though he wanted to wake up from the illusion. However, he did not manage to succeed in the end.
He merely let out a low and sorrowful cry. Following that, the power of the three Primal Core Realm cultivators completely erupted and smashed this demon beast lord into ashes in less than one moment!
“It’s finally over.”
Mo Lianque let out a long sigh of relief, looking as if a huge burden was lifted off his shoulder.
Qing Lin did not seem to have changed much. However, Feng Xia could still clearly feel her flat chest rising and falling slightly, as if she had just exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.
“I hope that after killing this incarnation, we can divert the Golden Roc demon king’s attention and buy ourselves more time.” Mo Lianque finally smiled. “This way, we can prepare for the trip to the Imperial Tombs.”
As for who was right and who was wrong, they would naturally have to go through another round before they could truly know. However, this would only happen after the trip to the Imperial Tombs.
The imperial court had planned and schemed many years for all of this. They had exhausted countless manpower and resources, and it was time to verify the results.
“The feeling has indeed disappeared.”
After checking carefully and activating the Golden Roc Ascension Art a few times, Feng Xia finally smiled. “I’m sure the Golden Roc demon king will like this gift very much. In that case, let’s give him a bit more.”
