Chapter 446: 419: Golden Lion Devourer Lord
“Is it the Armstrong Cyclotron Acceleration Jet Armstrong Cannon? Disciple is fond of this technique. Even though it’s not quite practical now, I still practice it occasionally.” Xu Gang said.
“That technique is a preliminary divine ability. Only after mastering it can such power be achieved.” Xu Fan said as he flicked out a jade slip from his hand.
“The promotion technique for the Armstrong Cyclotron Acceleration Jet Armstrong Cannon is in this jade slip. Practice it well. When you practice it to the final stage.”
“It will have the same power as that cannon.” Xu Fan said.
“Master, what is this technique called?” Xu Gang asked.
“The warmth of Sister Cannon in springtime.” Xu Fan said nostalgically. He sighed deeply in his heart, reminiscing that he couldn’t go back in time.
Zhan Ling, after killing the severely injured Demon Sovereign with a single slash, just floated mid-air in a state of intoxication.
This was already the fifth Demon Sovereign he’d slain. Along with the two killed outside the Steel Great Wall by the cannon, he had absorbed the true spirits and vitality of seven Demon Sovereigns.
At this moment, his Blood Sea had already begun to upgrade.
“Ah, it’s a pity the firestarter has already ascended. Otherwise, I would definitely fight him.” Zhan Ling observed, as he habitually scratched his butt.
Currently, the Moon Fox Holy City was in a state of chaos. Countless members of the Demon Clan who got the message were trying to escape back to the Demon World.
Of the eleven Demon Sovereigns who went out, only four returned, and three of them were seriously injured.
For a Demon Sovereign, nothing could be more terrifying than this.
As soon as the three severely injured Demon Sovereigns returned to the Moon Fox Holy City, they began a killing spree, furiously killing any Moon Fox they could see.
They absorbed the souls and vitality to recover their injuries.
The Moon Fox Demon Sovereign appeared in front of these three Sovereigns.
“Blood Bat Demon Sovereign, Giant Lizard Demon Sovereign, Evil Abyss Demon Sovereign, stop. This incident was an accident.” The Moon Fox Demon Sovereign said in a ghastly tone.
“So, your Moon Fox clan betrayed the Demon Clan long ago and has allied with the Human Clan.” The Blood Bat Demon Sovereign angrily said as he grabbed a Moon Fox at the combination stage and directly began to devour its vitality.
“I have a blood feud with the Human Clan, how could I ally with them?” The Moon Fox Demon Sovereign said.
“Otherwise, why were you the only one not attacked?” The Giant Lizard Demon Sovereign said. If the power of that cannon earlier had been slightly stronger, he wouldn’t have had a chance to escape.
“I… It’s the Human Clan’s trick. Can’t you see it?” The Moon Fox Demon Sovereign hesitated before speaking.
“Nevermind, we have lots of time in the future. We can play slowly.” The Blood Bat Demon Sovereign said as he and the other two Demon Sovereigns moved towards the two realms channel.
“Our agreement is not yet fulfilled. You cannot leave.” The Moon Fox Demon Sovereign said, a glint of killing intent flickering in his eyes. Even a fool would know that letting them return to the Demon World would bring endless troubles.
“You want to kill us?” The Blood Bat Demon Sovereign looked at the Moon Fox Demon Sovereign and started to laugh loudly.
Just then, a cannon shot from above, directly piercing through the body of the Blood Bat Demon Sovereign, which later turned into a mist of blood.
Then, two more shots came, dodged by the already alert two demon sovereigns, who desperately fled toward the two realms channel.
“Moon Fox Demon Sovereign, you still claim you have not allied with the Human Clan!”
The voice of the Giant Lizard Demon Sovereign came from inside the two realms channel. The Moon Fox Sovereign wanted to give chase, but a cannon shot pierced through half of his body, causing him to faint right on the spot.
At this moment, several thousand large spirit vessels were hovering above the Demon Clan Holy City.
Puppet after puppet fell from the spirit vessels, and began to sweep the entire holy city.
An ordinary-looking Moon Fox, holding a Moon Fox cub, came to the side of the Moon Fox Demon Sovereign, who was reduced to half of his body.
The average-looking Moon Fox, holding her cub, had a desolate look in her eyes. She was about to walk away towards the natural channel between the two realms carrying the body of the Moon Fox Demon Sovereign. The Puppet automatons sweeping through the area automatically stepped aside to clear a path for her.
Li Xingci, standing atop a spiritual boat in the sky, watched the plain-looking Moon Fox and shook his head, saying, “Rather than living like this, it would be better to just die.”
The Moon Fox, who was plain-looking but adored by the Moon Fox Demon Sovereign, had pleaded with Li Xingci to spare her husband the last time she delivered a message to him.
“If your Demon Sovereign husband doesn’t die, he will suffer a life more miserable than this,” Li Xingci said.
“As long as my husband is alive, that’s all that matters. We will deal with our future as it comes,” said the Moon Fox, her voice choked with tears.
“Alright, take your husband back to the Demon World. Remember your promise: after your husband’s death, you, along with his child, will serve my Hidden Spirit Sect for all eternity,” replied Li Xingci indifferently.
In any case, he wasn’t really concerned with the tragic plight of the Demon Clan.
Once the Moon Fox entered the channel between the two realms, the Holy City underwent a thorough cleanup. As for the Moon Fox Demon Clan that remained in the city, they were all slaughtered by the Combat Puppets.
Three days later, Xu Fan looked at the gigantic mountain of precious spirit ore in front of him and couldn’t help but smile, “The Great Clans truly have deep foundations.”
Xu Fan was toying with a crystal ball in his hand. It radiated a power of time, and he was struggling to suppress the grin on his face.
“Seal all these in the treasure house,” Xu Fan ordered with a wave of his hand.
“Elder Zhan Ling, Venerable Tiger Howl, and Spirit Cultivation Venerable, you have all worked hard this time,” he added.
“I will begin crafting personalized Dao Tools for the three of you soon. In at most three years’ time, you will all have Dao Tools that you are pleased with,” Xu Fan promised.
Finding spirit materials to forge Dao Tools fitting for these three in the Treasure House of Moon Fox Holy City was simple.
“Haha, thanks, Great Elder. Frankly, we didn’t contribute much,” Venerable Tiger Howl laughed.
“Don’t say that. Without the two of you defending this place, we would not have been able to hold out this long behind our Steel Great Wall,” Xu Fan replied with a smile.
“Being praised by the Great Elder is an honor,” Venerable Spirit Cultivation said.
After celebrating with the various Venerables, Xu Fan withdrew his consciousness.
Xu Fan felt a wave of relief wash over him, liberating him from stress.
“As soon as we stabilize the natural channel between the two realms, we can go and check on the Demon World. I wonder if we can contact the two puppet bases underground,” Xu Fan said.
“Pu Tao, move the Railgun to the other natural channel between the two realms,” he ordered.
“Understood,” Pu Tao replied.
Xu Fan then sent a message to Ning Dao.
Ning Dao, who was in Linsen Immortal City, was overjoyed at receiving Xu Fan’s message and rushed to the heavily guarded channel between the two realms.
Three days later, with the Railgun’s auspicious debut, all the demons in the area of Hidden Spirit Fairy City began to behave themselves.
Xu Fan then met Golden Lion Devourer Lord, who was single-handedly holding back two Great Clans at the other end of the channel between the two realms.
They both hit it off instantly because Golden Lion Devourer Lord was also an Artifact Refining Master, albeit a novice.
Sharing the same profession makes it easier to strike up a good, long chat. They conversed late into the night, accompanied by Zhan Ling, who was assigned as the atmosphere-defusing third wheel in the conversation.
As Xu Fan was about to leave, Golden Lion Devourer Lord mentioned a fatal flaw in the Railgun. Xu Fan was very grateful, and personally escorted him out of the Hidden Spirit Sect.
“Great Elder, is it true what Golden Lion Devourer told us, that the Railgun doesn’t work on Demons who have achieved the state of virtualization?” Zhan Ling asked. He had already been promoted, now able to merge himself with the Blood Sea, thus becoming indistinguishable from it.
Zhan Ling felt he should now fear the mighty weapon no more.
“Elder Zhan Ling, you can try it for yourself.” Xu Fan chuckled.
When Xu Fan was making the Railgun, he thought a little further than most. Even if you manage to reach the state of virtualization and hide in a spatial rift, the Railgun will still get you once it’s locked on.
“Haha, never mind then. I really don’t want to test the Railgun’s capabilities the hard way. The meticulous Great Elder would have considered everything,” Zhan Ling replied. He wasn’t keen on having someone point a gun at him and ask him if he was scared.
