Chapter 313: Chapter 153: Lin Xuankong’s First Exploration of the Demon’s Lair, The Shapeshifting Demon Monkey and the Earth Dragon Great Demon_3
Over ten Tier Seven and Tier Eight Demon Monkeys were caught off guard and were blown away hundreds of meters by his Dust Explosion Technique!
Yang Luofeng and the others activated their True Qi, preparing to fly into the air.
At this moment, a large number of earth-brown, sticky tentacles suddenly emerged from under their feet, wrapping around the legs of the six who were just about to take off!
The face of the Tier Eight Powerhouse changed dramatically. "Earth Dragon Demon! Damn it, it’s a Late-stage Tier Eight!"
He summoned a large number of vines, whipping them towards the tentacles of the Earth Dragon Demon entangled around him. Gigantic sounds of the clashes echoed as True Qi surged, but unfortunately, the tentacles of the Ninth Layer Earth Dragon Demon were incredibly resilient. Despite his full strength, the vines were to no avail!
The other four Late-stage Seventh Layer cultivators each used their own techniques, furiously attacking the tentacles of the Earth Dragon Demon, causing them to tremble continuously.
Among them, Yang Luofeng’s Dust Explosion Technique was the fiercest. Each time he launched an attack, the True Qi would cause a terrifying explosion, making the body of the Eighth Layer Earth Dragon Demon convulse uncontrollably!
Just as the six were about to escape, Yang Luofeng suddenly felt the sky darken. He looked up to see a Mid-Tier Eight Demon Monkey, which he had blown away earlier, transforming into a massive Stone Monkey, tens of meters tall, descending from above!
BOOM!
A huge explosion erupted.
The Stone Monkey, tens of meters tall, though evolved from its Demon Body, still had a terrifying weight. Such a monstrous body, crashing down from the sky and coupled with Late-stage Tier Eight Demon Qi, unleashed a terrifically destructive power!
In one hit, the True Qi of the four Seventh Layer powerhouses dissipated, and their bones and tendons broke instantly, causing them to faint on the spot.
Yang Luofeng and the Tier Eight Powerhouse also suffered severe injuries. Blood spurted from their mouths as their True Qi dispersed.
The Stone Monkey then extended its over thirty meters long stone claws, grabbing Yang Luofeng as Demon Qi surged into him, quickly annihilating his True Qi. Meanwhile, the Tier Eight Powerhouse had his True Qi rapidly annihilated by the Earth Dragon Demon’s Demon Qi!
After forty breaths, the Tier Eight Powerhouse and Yang Luofeng, whose True Qi was gradually depleting, showed a trace of despair on their faces. The two gritted their teeth fiercely, and their True Qi suddenly contracted. In the next moment, their bodies exploded with a loud bang!
The self-detonation of the Tier Eight Powerhouse was equivalent to hundreds or thousands of attacks from a Tier Eight Powerhouse exploding simultaneously, its power naturally terrifying!
The Stone Monkey that grabbed Yang Luofeng screeched, half of its body blasted into dust, severely wounded!
The Tier Eight Earth Dragon Demon also did not fare well; over two thousand of its earth-brown tentacles were blown to bits by the Tier Eight Powerhouse’s self-detonation, causing it to howl in anguish as its Demon Qi scattered!
「...」
Lin Xuankong’s Demon Reflected Pupils lost their detection the moment Yang Luofeng self-detonated.
The red gleam faded. Lin Xuankong, seated in a corner of the banquet, was startled, unable to suppress a muffled groan.
Jiang Yuran, seated nearby, looked over curiously, "Steward Lin, are you alright?"
Lin Xuankong shook his head slightly, forcing a smile, "I’m fine!"
However, while his lips smiled, his heart felt heavy.
He had long since experienced the life-and-death struggle between Demons and the Human Race. Back when he was in the Second-Layer Realm, he had personally witnessed the brutal massacre by the Marsh Python People... But at this moment, experiencing the brutality of the Demons from Yang Luofeng’s perspective still made it hard for him to accept!
Hundreds of thousands of common people were trapped in Demon Valley, forced to reproduce and serve as an endless supply of blood food... And these were just the humans still living; the number already Devoured by the Demons was incalculably greater. That valley of Flying Bear Peak could indeed be called a living hell!
And the power of these Tier Eight and Tier Nine Demons made Lin Xuankong feel quite apprehensive as well. Two Early Eighth Layer powerhouses, who had combat strength on par with his, and four Late-stage Seventh Layer cultivators, fell under the abrupt attack of an Earth Dragon and a Late-stage Tier Eight Demon Monkey in just sixty breaths of time!
These were still just Tier Eight Demons; what terrifying might would a Tier Nine Demon possess!
Moreover, the swift demise of Yang Luofeng and the Tier Eight Powerhouse also unsettled Lin Xuankong. Back in the Ba Mountain Secret Realm, Yang Luofeng had commended him quite a bit. Though not a friend, they were at least acquaintances! What was critical is that Yang Luofeng’s over a century of cultivation was wiped clean in an instant due to a slight mistake!
Lin Xuankong frowned as he gazed towards the direction of the Sealing Demon Mountain Range.
The periphery of the Sealing Demon Mountain Range already harbored so many Great Demons... Who knows how many Human Race powerhouses will fall in the battle for the Sealed Demon Mountain this time! As a Tier Six Cultivator, if he wanted to obtain the Thick Earth Spiritual Object, he needed to proceed with utmost caution!
He must succeed in Refining an Immortal Artifact! Otherwise, going to claim the Thick Earth Spiritual Object would be mere suicide!
