Chapter 638: Chapter 509: Ferocious Might!
Qin Ming’s Nascent Soul Realm was more than twice the size of an ordinary mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator’s.
Moreover, having consumed the Jade-Scaled Night Fish, his mastery of the Void Divine Techniques was even deeper.
Far surpassing the Nascent Soul Realm of a typical mid-stage cultivator.
Looking at the two once-familiar ’comrades’ before him, Qin Ming could only send them off on their final journey.
Back then, Demon Monarch Qishang and Six Desires Demon Monarch had descended and invaded Dragon Abyss Island together.
And Yanf Shu Demon Monarch was the fellow disciple brother of Demon Monarch Qishang.
As Qin Ming’s Nascent Soul Realm unfolded.
All those within its range who practiced demonic arts found their faces colorless, their minds lost!
Six Desires Demon Monarch, being a mid-stage Nascent Soul Demon Monarch, had a much stronger mindset than Yanf Shu Demon Monarch beside him.
Yet he, too, could feel the heavy expression on that face behind the eerie mist.
"Daoist Yanf Shu, it looks like today we have no choice but to experience the divine techniques of True Monarch Wangyue of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm."
...
Not far away.
Profound Yin the Old Demon and Elder Wangu, who were engaged in battle with the Heaven-Devouring Rat, were also enveloped by the Nascent Soul Realm.
Two early-stage Nascent Soul Old Demons found it a struggle to deal with the Tier Four Transformed Great Demon, the Heaven-Devouring Rat, to begin with.
Now, their strength and realm were forcibly suppressed to the Fake Infant Realm by the Nascent Soul Realm, and they were overwhelmed with complaints.
At that moment.
Elder Wangu narrowly avoided the Heaven-Devouring Rat’s attack, his gaze sinister, muttering incantations, biting the tip of his tongue, and spitting out a mouthful of essence blood, his aura suddenly wilting.
Suddenly, a burst of formless power was released.
The Heaven-Devouring Rat, who had been following Qin Ming for a long time, felt something amiss and quickly took out a black tortoise shell to shield itself.
In the next moment.
Countless invisible threads fiercely struck the tortoise shell, unable to penetrate an inch further.
"How is this possible?"
"Even my Lifebound Soul Gu can’t breach this defense, what is this?"
Elder Wangu, seeing his Gu Technique divine power fail in front of the tortoise shell, displayed an expression of disbelief.
This despite damaging his essence and forcibly enhancing his Lifebound Soul Gu to the Tier Four Mid-Stage.
This Lifebound Soul Gu was painstakingly cultivated, breeding from countless high-tier spiritual Gu at Divine Dao Mountain, devouring each other in advancement, and producing this single one.
It can be said to be Elder Wangu’s ace divine technique; even Master Lihuo suffered greatly because of it back in the day.
He had to retreat for decades of recuperation to recover.
The Heaven-Devouring Rat swept away the invisible threads, then sneered, saying: "You’re joking, the Profound Spirit Armor of this lord can even withstand the Tier Four Transformation Thunder Tribulation without effort, how could it fear your petty Gu Technique?"
"Old Wangu, eat this blow from your lord!"
"Thunder Accumulation Mountain will be your burial ground! Today I will take your head to console the spirits of the Mountain Giant Ape Race in heaven!"
The Heaven-Devouring Rat said, taking out a set of Five-Colored Command Banners, casually tossing them, which positioned themselves throughout the void.
In the next moment.
Celestial Fire, Dark Water, Golden Light, Cyan Wood, Earth Fiend, all kinds of Five Elements power rained down unceasingly.
"Rise!"
"Four Symbols Tribulation Killing Array!"
The Heaven-Devouring Rat waved its small hand, and as the spells in its hand continually changed, phantom images of the Cyan Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise emerged from the Five Elements Command Banners, charging directly at the two Old Demons trapped in the Nascent Soul Realm.
Elder Wangu was entangled by the Cyan Dragon’s phantom, a flash of black light, and in his horrified eyes, his head flew off!
The Heaven-Devouring Rat’s black steel fork continued its thrust, heading straight for the opponent’s Nascent Soul.
Elder Wangu’s blood-red Nascent Soul abandoned the body, fleeing, frantically using the Void Instant Teleportation Technique, attempting to escape, only to repeatedly collide with the barrier of the Nascent Soul Realm, unable to break through the confinement of the Void Power, leaving the Nascent Soul gasping for breath.
"Hmph! And you thought of troubling my master!"
The Heaven-Devouring Rat revealed its true form as a Demon Race, then used the Devouring Divine Technique, taking a large breath, creating a surge of Power of Profound Mystery in its mouth.
Elder Wangu’s Nascent Soul was swept away by a black wind, swallowed whole before even a cry could escape, and into the Heaven-Devouring Rat’s belly.
"Hiccup~" The Heaven-Devouring Rat smacked its lips, burped, and said disdainfully, "Tastes a bit like aged pickled cabbage, really awful~"
Then it raised its black steel fork, looking towards Profound Yin the Old Demon.
Profound Yin the Old Demon was already terrified beyond belief, recognizing the Heaven-Devouring Rat’s divine technique at the end having significant restraint on a cultivator’s Nascent Soul.
Once the Nascent Soul appeared, escape was essentially impossible.
"Don’t push people too far!!" Profound Yin the Old Demon, eyes bloodshot, began burning his Lifebound Essence, fighting desperately.
Yet under the suppression of the Nascent Soul Realm, all struggle was in vain.
Soon enough,
Profound Yin the Old Demon followed in Elder Wangu’s footsteps.
Thus, these two notorious demonic old monsters met their end at Thunder Accumulation Mountain, devoured by the Heaven-Devouring Rat.
The Heaven-Devouring Rat licked its lips, having finished, summoned the Five Elements Banner back.
Then it collected the two Old Demons’ corpses, knowing Qin Ming could use them as fertilizer for cultivation.
"Hmph! With just a flick of the hand, demonic Nascent Souls turn to ash!"
The Heaven-Devouring Rat arrogantly raised its head, waving its small hand in a gesture of grand declarations.
Then it glanced sideways at Little Silver Moon, wondering if she noticed its majestic display.
After a while.
Seeing Little Silver Moon still engaged in defeating those demonic underlings, it called out loudly, lifting its steel fork with possible assistance:
"Little Silver Moon, I’m coming to help you!!"
...
On the other side.
Qin Ming’s mana realm was more than double the size of an ordinary mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator’s.
"Six Desires Heart-Connected Demon!"
The demonic qi around the Six Desires Demon Monarch surged, and six terrifying demon heads with green faces and fangs suddenly flew out of the eerie mist, howling like ghosts and wolves as they lunged at Qin Ming!
Each of these six demon heads astonishingly possessed the cultivation level of early-stage Nascent Soul. Under the control of the Six Desires Demon Monarch, they moved with exceptional agility, cooperating seamlessly and as one.
These six demons were the greatest reliance of the Six Desires Demon Monarch, created from the souls of six Nascent Soul cultivators of different attributes, painstakingly refined over hundreds of years as a great divine technique of the Ghostly Palace.
When the six demon heads combined their powers, their might was comparable to that of a late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, which was why the Six Desires Demon Monarch could dominate the demonic path.
Among the mid-stage Nascent Souls of the Blood Realm, he ranked within the top three.
Meanwhile, Yanf Shu the Demon Monarch was more pragmatic. The moment he saw Qin Ming appear, ignoring the Six Desires Demon Monarch, he pulled out a pitch-black brush, drew a portal in the void, and disappeared within, making a swift getaway...
It seemed to be an extremely powerful life-saving divine technique, completely ignoring the void’s power of sealing.
...
In an instant, only the Six Desires Demon Monarch was left.
Qin Ming, not wanting to entangle with him, wished to end the battle swiftly to leave the place, so he summoned the Blood Massacre Spiritual Treasure.
Swipe!
"Heh heh heh!"
"Demonic brat, let this old one spar with you and see how well you’ve honed your demon techniques?"
With a sinister laugh from Qingyang the Old Demon ringing out.
The Six Desires Demon Monarch suddenly found the scene before him shifting, drawn into a world of boundless blood sea.
At the same time.
Always shrouded in eerie mist and as elusive as a divine dragon, the Six Desires Demon Monarch finally revealed his true body.
He was a pale, emaciated middle-aged man.
His face was extremely unsightly at this moment, for after being drawn into this place by the Blood Massacre Spiritual Treasure, he discovered that his Nascent Soul cultivation was once again suppressed.
At this moment, the strength he could wield was less than thirty to forty percent of normal.
"No wonder even the Celestial Hatred Demon Monarch fears this human cultivator."
"Your divine techniques are the most troublesome I’ve encountered."
The Six Desires Demon Monarch controlled his demon heads to deflect several blood spears launched by Qingyang the Old Demon.
Then, the demonic qi around him surged once more, as if he was employing a life-burning secret technique, preparing to desperately fight against Qin Ming.
A flash of bright green crossed Qin Ming’s pupils. Under the Yin Yang Profound Mirror divine technique, he could see the rapidly fading vitality of the opponent.
’I hadn’t even used the life-shortening divine technique, and the opponent went ahead and did it first.’
Divine techniques that came at the cost of life were often extremely powerful.
Especially when used by a cultivator like the Six Desires Demon Monarch; naturally, Qin Ming dared not be careless.
"Six Desires Demon Fire!"
With a wave of the Six Desires Demon Monarch’s hand, each of the six demon heads spewed forth a flame.
This flame, collected from the desires of countless slain cultivators, could trigger endless desires in those it touched, awakening their inner heart demons and driving them to madness and death, extremely terrifying.
In mid-air, the six flames merged into a gigantic, six-colored flaming serpent, swiftly traversing the void, twisting its massive body, and sweeping towards Qin Ming with a frightening momentum.
Even the void seemed to warp.
The moment this flame appeared, it burned away the surrounding blood sea of the Six Desires Demon Monarch, freeing him from the suppression of his cultivation, restoring his mid-stage Nascent Soul strength.
Seeing this, Qin Ming’s expression remained as calm as an ancient well, utterly composed.
"When it comes to playing with fire, you are still too inexperienced."
Qin Ming immediately spat out a triple-colored Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire, which transformed into a gigantic flaming griffin that lunged towards the fire python.
It was the Tier Four High-Grade Ancient Poison Flame!
Now, after breaking through to the mid-stage Nascent Soul, Qin Ming could unleash sixty percent of this spiritual fire’s power, and with the addition of wood attribute Nascent Soul Dharma Power, which enhances fire, it became even more ferocious.
Coo!
Boom!
The three-colored flaming griffin, formed from the Ancient Poison Flame, tore through the Six Desires Demon Fire like paper, instantly shredding it into countless fragments, which scattered and dissipated.
"Puff!"
With his life technique broken, the Six Desires Demon Monarch spat out a mouthful of old blood, his face revealing incredulity.
He finally understood why even the dignified late-stage Nascent Soul Celestial Hatred Demon Monarch retreated without a fight when facing this person...
But it was already too late to say anything.
From Qin Ming effortlessly breaking through his various divine techniques, and sensing the opponent seemingly still having much more in reserve, it was likely that his true strength had not yet been revealed.
The current divine techniques were merely the tip of the iceberg...
The Six Desires Demon Monarch let out a grim smile; he was already at the end of his rope.
"True Monarch Wangyue, truly you live up to your great reputation..."
Qin Ming sneered coldly: "Given the outcome, wasn’t it unnecessary to even start? You may die in peace, Daoist friend."
Under the onslaught of the Ancient Poison Flame, the six demon heads were instantly incinerated.
The Nascent Soul of the Six Desires Demon Monarch flew out, baring its fangs and rushing towards Qin Ming, as if intending to self-detonate in a final effort to take him down.
But Qin Ming, with a virtual grasp of his five fingers, manifested an invisible giant hand in the void, capturing it in a grip!
He managed to seize the Nascent Soul of the Six Desires Demon Monarch, forcibly suppressing the chaotic, swelling energy within, preventing self-detonation.
Then.
Qin Ming’s eyes sharpened, as he forcefully began to employ the Soul Searching Technique on the Nascent Soul.
"Hmph! Even in death, I won’t let you have it, don’t you know a Nascent Soul can’t be soul searched, unless..."
The Six Desires Demon Monarch hadn’t finished speaking.
Qin Ming calmly interrupted him, "Unless my Divine Soul Power far exceeds yours..."
SIX DESIRE DEMON MONARCH’s words were cut off.
Qingyang the Old Demon, with a tone of admiration, said, "True Monarch Wangyue, this young one indeed lives up to the fame..."
Qin Ming sneered, "If you knew this would happen, why did you begin? Now you may go peacefully."
The Ancient Poison Flame engulfed, and the six demon heads were instantly reduced to ashes.
The Six Desires Demon Monarch’s Nascent Soul was captured by an invisible hand that materialized from the void and was grasped tightly by its finger!
His fragmented and swollen energy was forced into suppression.
"And to think that I had yet to fully unleash the power of the soul-diminution divine technique; he still managed to act first."
"Deceptive Demonic Child, do you think you can get away with this? Such gall!"
Qingyang the Old Demon watched admiringly as Qin Ming effortlessly dismantled the various divine techniques of the Six Desires Demon Monarch and remarked, "This young one is beginning to show the same style I once had..."
...
