Chapter 583: Chapter 581: The Power of the Demon Infant (Seeking Monthly Tickets) _1
"Gan... At last, that wretch is dealt with."
The Nascent Soul early-stage blue-robed disciple sneered coldly as he watched a Nascent Soul turn to ashes in the flames, his expression tinged with regret, "That Zhao managed to escape with his Nascent Soul... He got off lightly."
"Who could have expected that Zhao would have cultivated the ’Soul Separation Secret Skill’... It’s a life-saving skill second only to the Three Corpse Nascent Soul... My ’Poison Dragon Nail’ was ineffective."
Gan also felt some regret before saying, "Now let’s go help the Senior Elder drive away Master Golden Light, then we can change the Array and break the Secret Realm’s seal..."
"This is all thanks to Gan having mastery over Arrays and understanding the intricacies of this particular one..."
The blue-robed disciple complimented.
He was under no illusion that he could have killed a great cultivator on his own; his sole aim was to quickly unleash the Valley God Demon Lord and wreak havoc.
As for the Western Desert Cultivation World that would suffer from the calamity? Since it no longer belonged to the Sacred Fire Sect, the more tragic their fate, the happier he felt.
Just then, Gan’s expression changed, "Not good... Reinforcements!"
The blue-robed disciple’s Divine Consciousness swept over the area, and he too saw a surge of demonic light coming at a terrifying speed.
A moment ago, it was tens of miles away, but in the blink of an eye, it was only a few miles away from the two Nascent Soul cultivators!
And a terrifying Divine Consciousness had already locked them both down dead in their tracks!
"A Nascent Soul late-stage great cultivator!"
The blue-robed cultivator was shocked and quickly summoned a blue jade pendant which turned into an unusually thick light cover.
Gan, whose cultivation was higher, felt even more panic, "A Nascent Soul complete Demon Cultivator... there is no such person in the Western Desert..."
He unfolded a Demon Banner, and seven Flood Dragon phantoms emerged, coiling around him.
This was the Evil Dragon Temple’s widely renowned spiritual treasure—Seven Dragon Banner!
Whoosh, whoosh!
Almost as soon as they realized the attack from the Heterodox Nascent Soul, it ruthlessly struck.
He rubbed his hands together and a jet-black demonic light appeared, being stretched thin and flattened into two Demon Blades.
Both were pitch black, with a chain of crimson runes only on the blade edge.
After chanting an ancient Demon Curse, they suddenly disappeared.
Thump!
The next moment, one of the Demon Blades appeared in front of the blue-robed disciple and with a single swipe, cut through the jade pendant he had summoned, splitting him in two.
A Nascent Soul attempted to escape instantly, but was entangled in midair by a wisp of pitch-black Demon Flames and screamed as it turned to ash.
The other Demon Blade cut through the seven Flood Dragon phantoms with unstoppable force, heading straight for Gan.
After the black light flashed, Gan’s face turned pale, and he reappeared hundreds of feet away, having lost an arm.
Strangely, at the place of injury, there was a blackish-red hue, as though not a single drop of blood had flowed out...
’This "Demon Blade Chop" Secret Skill isn’t bad...’
Seeing that he had managed to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator with just a gentle attempt, not even using a spiritual treasure but merely a Secret Skill, Fang Xi felt quite satisfied.
"Who are you?"
Gan cried out as he rapidly chanted a spell, with a series of pitch-black lightning flashes appearing, vaguely adopting the shape of a Flood Dragon.
"Go!"
He violently struck his chest, causing a stream of essence blood to spray out and fall onto the body of the Flood Dragon.
With a long roar as it swished its head and tail, the Flood Dragon’s body swelled to a length of several hundred feet, charging towards Fang Xi!
In the shadows, a slick, three-inch-long black nail, with exquisitely realistic evil dragon patterns, lay hidden within the void, shooting towards Fang Xi!
Gan thought he had concealed it well, but all of this was clearly visible under Fang Xi’s powerful Divine Consciousness, there was nowhere to hide.
He chuckled and with a breath, ’Six Paths Demon Flames’ spurted out.
At this moment, although the ’Six Paths Demon Flames’ constantly changed colors, they mostly stayed in a three-colored phase, resembling a ball of Three Yang Holy Fire.
This was naturally because after absorbing the fifth-order Three Yang Holy Fire, although the power of the ’Six Paths Demon Flames’ had greatly increased, it was also largely tainted.
"Ah... This is..."
Seeing the holy fire of his own Sect astonished Gan, making his eyeballs bulge.
Crackle!
A wisp of Six Paths Demon Flames landed on the Thunder Dragon, and like hot oil meeting cold water, it exploded furiously.
Countless flames splashed outward, quickly engulfing the whole Thunder Dragon...
Not only that, but a stream of fire even forced out a black iron nail in the void. The three-colored flames twined around it, and with a single refinement process, it turned the malignant treasure into scrap metal!
"Thump!"
Gan spat out a mouthful of essence blood. Then, suddenly, with his hands forming a gesture, numerous blood beads permeated from his skin, indicating that he was preparing to use the ’Blood Escape Skills’ to flee!
If he could escape with his life from a Nascent Soul complete Demon Cultivator, he would have much to be proud of.
Unfortunately...
Fang Xi watched him cast the spell with a cheerful smile, his eyes revealing a mocking color.
Just as Gan turned into a blood-soaked figure, ready to transform into a blood rainbow and escape, the Heterodox Nascent Soul made a gesture with his hands and a blood talisman appeared, his eyes shining bright as he coldly shouted, "Hasten!"
Thump!
As if an invisible ripple passed over Gan, making his expression suddenly change and he spat out a large mouthful of essence blood as if his own ’Blood Escape Skills’ had backfired on him!
"To play with Demon Path Secret Skills in front of me, I must say, you are quite brave."
Fang Xi stood with his hands behind his back, exuding the demeanor of a superior being.
In fact, these little tricks were learned from Demon Lord Chi Lian.
According to Chi Lian, the cultivation techniques practiced by human race Demon Cultivators are mostly adapted from ancient Demon Skills. Therefore, if you encounter a few specific Cultivation Secret Skills, you can easily restrain them...
Unfortunately, the Blood Escape Skills displayed by Cultivator Gan was precisely among them.
Fang Xi, making a cursory attempt with his superior Demon cultivation, immediately caused a backlash in the opponent’s secret skill. It was a case of digging one’s own grave.
Meanwhile, a mass of ’Six Paths Demon Flames’ was already bearing down upon him.
Gan’s face was filled with the color of despair as he spewed out a translucent veil.
Ferociously!
The Six Paths Demon Flames completely engulfed him, and in the blink of an eye, both he and his Nascent Soul were reduced to ashes, his body and spirit both annihilated...
...
From the moment Fang Xi made his move to the eradication of the two Nascent Souls, it was all over in the snap of a finger.
At this time, the two great cultivators had yet to determine a victor.
Fang Xi’s Escape Light flashed, and he arrived on the battlefield of Master Golden Light. Opening his mouth, he released the Six Paths Demon Flames.
This fire, after devouring the fifth-order ’Three Yang Holy Fire’, was now stably ranked as a fifth-order flame. Even Transcendent God cultivators would not dare to provoke it lightly.
For a Nascent Soul cultivator, contact meant certain death, no exaggeration!
Boom!
The Six Paths Demon Flames quickly ignited in the void, forming a wall of fire. The fire birds and fire serpents emerging from within the Dragon and Phoenix Double Flame Ring upon encountering this wall of fire were directly absorbed, losing all their previous ferocity!
Not only that, but a three-colored Six Paths Demon Flames descended on the Dragon and Phoenix Double Flame Ring’s main body.
With a tricolor flash, the great cultivator hidden within the dismal fog uttered a muffled grunt, seeming to have taken a minor hit.
Master Golden Light scanned with his Divine Consciousness and saw the Exotic Treasure ’Dragon and Phoenix Double Flame Ring’, comparable to a top-grade spiritual treasure, reduced to two clumps of powder that exploded in the void...
The might of a fifth-order flame was truly terrifying!
"Ah... What is that... the Three Yang Holy Fire?!"
The great cultivator hidden in the dismal fog let out a shout of surprise, "What is your relationship with that old ghost Fang?"
A fourth-order Three Yang Holy Fire wasn’t much, but a fifth-order Spirit Fire was one of a kind. That old demon Fang actually gave such a thing away?
"Haven’t you already guessed?"
Fang Xi sneered, "Since I personally came here, you won’t be able to run anymore... Lord Zi Yin!"
"What... You’re actually Lord Zi Yin?"
Master Golden Light exclaimed in shock.
Lord Zi Yin was from north of the Western Desert, a famous great cultivator from the Yin Yuan Palace. It was said that his sect had disputes with the Sacred Fire Sect. Unexpectedly, he was actually a member of the Sacred Fire Sect!?
Whoosh!
The dismal fog lifted, revealing a woman in a purple robe, her eyes filled with thick hatred as she looked at Fang Xi, "Old thief! Today, even at the cost of this old life, I will destroy your external incarnation here!"
Her voice was as melodious as an oriole, very pleasant to hear, much different from before.
"So much nonsense!"
Fang Xi manipulated the Six Paths Demon Flames, which transformed into a giant six-headed serpent, with each head ablaze with a different Demon Fire, and the central head, as big as a house, spat out an extremely dense Three Yang Holy Fire!
Lord Zi Yin was concentrating on defending herself but suddenly heard a piercing sword cry from behind!
This sword cry, like a baby’s wail, was extremely miserable, with thick Demon Evil aura emerging.
"Could it be instant transmission?!"
Master Golden Light saw a black and red giant sword suddenly appear behind Lord Zi Yin and broke out in a cold sweat.
Facing such a terrifying and unpredictable flying sword, even he would be greatly troubled.
Hiss, hiss!
Countless blood-red threads shot out from the giant sword, seeming to seal the void.
Sword shadows filled with Demon Evil aura directly tore through Lord Zi Yin’s Body Shielding Light Cover, cleaved a pitch-black shield, and slashed apart Lord Zi Yin’s body.
Whoosh!
Several hundred feet away, a purple Nascent Soul emerged in a panic, attempting to instantaneously teleport and escape.
But the red threads that had previously disappeared into the void, like a vast net, swiftly ensnared her, and the fine red threads, upon touching the Nascent Soul’s body, made sizzling noises, forcing the woman to scream involuntarily.
Master Golden Light, upon seeing this scene, was secretly shocked.
A great cultivator was taken down in just a few moves. It seemed that this external incarnation or second Nascent Soul of Dragon Fish Island’s Lord Master was comparable to a Transcendent God cultivator in all aspects except for invoking the Power of Heaven and Earth!
"Golden Light, you’ve done well to hold on until now," Fang Xi said after retrieving Lord Zi Yin’s Nascent Soul. Instead of immediately feeding it to the Divine Infant Sword, he planned to return and search her soul. By following the trail, he wanted to root out all in one swoop.
Although it might not be possible to uproot all the hidden branches of the Sacred Fire Sect in one go, regular cleanups could be conducted.
After a few rounds, they would likely disappear into the crowd, leaving no trace...
"To serve the senior, I dare not slack off," Master Golden Light said with his hands clasped in a humble posture.
"What’s the casualty report?" Fang Xi asked next.
"Evil Dragon Temple defected, Fairy Qiong Lin unfortunately fell, and Zhao managed to escape with his Nascent Soul..." Master Golden Light detailed the situation.
"Sigh... Direct the sect or descendants of Fairy Qiong Lin to go to Demon Tree Ridge and collect an ’Infant Transformation Pill.’ You and that Zhao fellow will also receive compensation... As for Evil Dragon Temple, just annihilate them," Fang Xi quickly made a compensation plan since it was the avatar issuing it, not him.
