Chapter 513: Chapter 262: Blood Demon Sect Leader, Jue Xing’s Despair
"No——"
"No——"
The despairing screams of the Three Karmic Demon echoed endlessly, but under the final devour of the Spirit-Extinguishing Corpse Qi, it turned to ashes.
The Demon Essence was already depleted.
There was naturally no chance of reuniting it.
At the same time, the Soul Capturing Power of the East Spring Undying Bone also began to extract the Demon Soul from the True Spirit Demon Tree.
The Demon Soul of the Three Karmic Demon let out a few last roars before being completely devoured by the East Spring Undying Bone, followed by a surge of over three thousand years of soul memories. First was the matter concerning the Sect Leader of the Blood Demon Sect; the Three Karmic Demon hadn’t lied, the Sect Leader killed everyone to cover up and bury an object.
But what this object was, the Three Karmic Demon wasn’t quite clear, only knowing it was part of the Sect Leader’s transcendence plan. The so-called transcendence meant breaking free from the rules of the heavens and earth, a path to defy destiny and prove immortality. Whether the Sect Leader of the Blood Demon Sect succeeded in this, the Three Karmic Demon also didn’t know.
But he knew two pieces of information. Firstly, the method of transcendence originated from an Ancient Demon Sect that truly produced a Demon Immortal tens of thousands of years ago; secondly, three places were most likely where the object was buried.
One of those places was within the Dark Evil God’s Cave Heaven beneath the Little Demon Realm.
This precisely verified the divinations of the Corpse Fate Technique, that indeed there were remnants of the Blood Demon Sect within the Dark Evil God’s Cave Heaven.
As for the other two places, one was surprisingly within the Celestial Sword Grotto Heaven in the first peak of the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, the Celestial Sword Peak.
The last one was somewhat unexpected to Wen Jiu, as it was within the Celestial Extinction Ruins, at the end of the East Spring River.
"Interesting." Wen Jiu felt a bit curious, but it was just curiosity. Because within the soul memories of the Three Karmic Demon, the Sect Leader of the Blood Demon Sect wasn’t actually dead.
Three thousand years had passed, who knows what realm he may have reached. If someone were to tamper with his things, who knows what the outcome would be.
After collecting his thoughts, Wen Jiu no longer lingered on the soul memories of the Three Karmic Demon, but instead controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to retract the Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi. The creation of the Land of Absolute Spirit, spanning sixteen thousand zhang, when discovered by the Golden Core Zhenren of the West Mountain Floating Domain Lord’s Mansion, would surely cause a huge uproar, so it was time to leave quickly.
Just as well to find a place to assess the gains, to see how much benefit was obtained from devouring an entire True Spirit Demon Tree.
"Still haven’t left?" However, just as the Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi was being retracted, Wen Jiu sensed the presence of Jue Xing.
Not fleeing at this moment, obviously confident in his own life-saving methods.
"Since you’re so confident, let me test you."
The East Spring Undying Bone, after devouring the True Spirit Demon Tree, must have improved drastically from before, and since the Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi had already been used on such a large scale, might as well go all out once more, kill another Middle Stage of Demon Core cultivator, and see from his soul memories the plans and layouts of the Outer Hidden Demon Sect in the West Mountain Floating Domain.
In the soul memories of He Xiong Wu, it seemed the Blood Corpse Mushroom was handed to the He Family from the Dark Altar Master here.
...
Outside the Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi.
Unable to sense the auras of the True Spirit Demon Tree or the Three Karmic Demon, Jue Xing was anxious. Seeing the Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi beginning to contract, he hurriedly reassembles into a True Demon, waiting for the ghost qi to dissipate to investigate inside.
He had figured it out, this ghost qi, though terrifying, spread slowly, as long as he did not rashly enter, it would be fine. As for Li Bai, having become a True Demon, as long as he didn’t enter the ghost qi, he was confident he wouldn’t lose.
"Demon Luo, senior!" Jue Xing tried to call out with the most primitive sound, but as he began to speak, ghost qi suddenly appeared behind him. Jue Xing’s eyes narrowed, and he flashed a thousand zhang away, then raised four arms simultaneously, a massive demonic qi suddenly transformed into a vortex a thousand zhang wide, covering the surroundings.
At the same time, Jue Xing saw Li Bai!
"I dare not rashly enter your ten thousand zhang ghost qi, but you dare come out!" As soon as he finished speaking, the demonic qi vortex exploded, and the vast impact of demonic qi instantly swept across the ten thousand zhang area around Jue Xing, eradicating everything in its path.
Even the Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi that was covered was no exception, but the Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi could regenerate endlessly, though if a Golden Core Cultivator was caught in this attack, reaching the extreme of a Golden Core mighty qi, even a Body Cultivator would find it hard to escape disaster.
However, Wen Jiu did not dodge but chose to let the East Spring Undying Bone face the attack head-on, as he wanted to see the current strength of the corpse body and undying bone. The outcome was satisfying; a strike that reached the extreme of Middle Stage of Golden Core, when hitting the East Spring Undying Bone, only consumed about one-tenth of its corpse qi.
As for the Unmelting Golden Pill and Thunder Spirit Demon Blood Body, they were unaffected. This was quite the difference from before devouring the True Spirit Demon Tree. If it had been the previous East Spring Undying Bone facing this strike, it would have been akin to another heavenly tribulation.
"This Demon Cultivator after transformation is indeed somewhat extraordinary. If not for the significant upgrade of the East Spring Undying Bone this time, I might have had to retreat." Wen Jiu sighed, controlling the East Spring Undying Bone to attack Jue Xing.
Jue Xing, seeing the East Spring Undying Bone unharmed, was just as shocked as he had been witnessing the ten thousand zhang Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi.
But he understood.
This was not Li Bai’s original strength.
Clearly.
This was the enhancement from devouring the True Spirit Demon Tree.
"After the Demon Transformation, a full-powered strike nearly approaches the Late Stage of Golden Core, yet it couldn’t even shake Li Bai’s Ghost Body." Jue Xing continuously hurled one black magic orb after another at the nimble East Spring Undying Bone, all the while inwardly marveling. Seeing that eerie ghost qi creeping closer, he had no choice but to deliver an all-out strike to scatter it, then was forced back a thousand zhang, not daring to advance recklessly.
