Can fire restrain the resentful spirits within the Soul-devouring Banner?
Just as this thought arose in Wang Wu’s mind, he saw the yin energy from the Soul-devouring Banner above grow stronger, absorbing all the excess flas.
"Let knock you down!"
Old Niu suddenly roared, charging towards the Soul-devouring Banner, but ended up hitting nothing, as if the banner was a phantom.
"Hahaha, West Wilderness Little Demon, you are so straightforward and cute. Niu Niu, why not join and beco a Spirit Beast?"
Outside the gray circle, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect cultivator let out a bizarre laugh, holding a small, intricate Soul-devouring Banner in hand.
"Courting death!"
Old Niu, filled with anger, was about to charge outside the gray circle when the ground suddenly caved in beneath him, and the Little Wild Boar erged.
"Big brother, third brother, hurry and leave!"
But in the next second, Wolf Bu’er swiftly pinned him down, like holding a small mouse.
"Fool, why did you co out! Even ambushing that Human Race scum is better than coming out!"
As they spoke, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect cultivator outside did indeed change his expression slightly. He sensed Xiong Shier and hurried over, yet lacking the Demon Race’s reconnaissance divine techniques and his own cultivation not at a certain level, relying entirely on the array for a comprehensive investigation, he inadvertently overlooked this Pig Demon hiding fifty ters underground!
"Qi Ling!"
With a loud shout, he shook the Soul-devouring Banner vigorously, forming more yin energy with additional resentful spirits flying out. The place beca bone-chilling with mournful wails, terrifying indeed!
anwhile, Xiong Shiliu quickly threw out talismans, transforming into fireballs that exploded, churning the yin energy into chaos and eliminating many resentful spirits.
By this ti, Wang Wu remained in Concealnt, even as resentful spirits passed nearby, seemingly unable to detect him.
However, he also wondered why that person, being a Ten Thousand Poison Sect cultivator, only had the Soul-devouring Banner as his thod?
Too cliché, almost like it was ant to counter Xiong Shiliu’s Enchanting Heart Demon Technique...
"Master, be careful, there’s one called Xiong Wu among them, and he’s the tough one... poof!"
Suddenly, Xiong Shier shouted weakly, then spat out inky black poisonous blood, seemingly with fragnts of internal organs. Does it an the Tier Three poison wound acted up?
At these words, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect cultivator’s expression changed imdiately.
"Damn it, why didn’t you say so earlier—"
Before finishing his sentence, he also spat out a mouthful of black poisonous blood; how did the poison transmit into his body?
Yet, instead of fear, he showed joy!
"Good, good, good! Wonderful, it isn’t a mixed toxin, but a perfect blend of three Demon King-level poisons; excellent! Excellent! Xiong Wu, beco my Lifebound Spirit Beast!"
With that, he suddenly took out a magical Jade Pendant. Within it, was his image, along with Xiong Shier’s image, appearing to be intricately bonded.
"Heaven’s decree, in perpetuity!"
"When the year of Dragon and Snake arrives, fate shall end!"
"Xiong Shier, willing to sacrifice for !"
"Alas, alas!"
After this Ten Thousand Poison Sect cultivator finished speaking in a tone akin to a Witch Priest, Xiong Shier cried out in terror, "Master, no, I am imnsely loyal to you, you can’t abandon ..."
Its pleading voice hadn’t ended when it erupted into raging flas. The fire was fierce, and eerie, as if heaven truly condemned it.
In an instant, it turned into a pile of ashes, blown away by the wind, dissipating like smoke.
This scene left Wang Wu, Xiong Shiliu, Yuan Bupu, and the other demons with their scalps tingling and chills running straight to their skulls. The Little Wild Boar was so frightened it wet itself, because at this mont, it realized how ridiculous the rumor was; the Spirit Beast created by the Human Race, with such longevity, was rely to serve as Companions to the Human Race.
Yes, forget Lifebound, this is just Companionship!
The Demon Race learns from the Human Race daily, yet the Human Race cultivators secretly studied the Demon Race’s Companionship Secret Techniques in return.
Moreover, considering this, the status of a Lifebound Spirit Beast is not even as high as a Lifebound Magical Artifact or Sword.
All costs are borne by the Companionship Spirit Beast. Human Race cultivators can break the Lifebound contract at any ti, allowing them to love one today, toss it tomorrow.
Today, they can like this cat, tomorrow this dog, the day after, well, the day after won’t even consider this filthy, stinky Little Wild Boar.
Little knowing that across the Western Wilderness, many naive, innocent, and gullible little demons are deceived by such rumors, willingly exploited, ultimately never becoming a Lifebound Spirit Beast, abandoned without regret.
And Wang Wu, Xiong Shiliu, Yuan Bupu, and Wolf Bu’er also ca to terms, understanding why Xiong Shier was tempted. The benefits were indeed hard to refuse.
Its tragedy lay in knowing only part of the story!
Even facing death, it pleaded, refusing to change.
Truly, alas!
At this point, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect cultivator frowned slightly, a bit puzzled, because under normal circumstances, with the death of a Lifebound Spirit Beast, all its vitality and Spiritual Qi should transfer to him, as it’s said that with the Spirit Beast’s death, cultivators receive great benefits. Many who take unusual paths prefer this, since it is much faster than regular cultivation.
Yet now Xiong Shier turns out to be so deficient!
Where did your vitality go, where did your Spiritual Qi go?
However, this sufficiently explains why Xiong Wu really is a rare Lifebound Spirit Beast contract.
Perhaps it could be used for a lifeti, even after death, serving the sect as a guard dog Spirit Beast.
Heaven is helping !
So at this mont, his eyes shone brightly, he changed his tactic, and put away the soul-devouring banner specifically released to deal with Xiong Shiliu. Three kinds of mixed toxins, ah, are much more valuable than any future Demon Emperor who is likely just boasting.
He directly produced a stack of Golden Light Thunder Talismans in his hand, and began an indiscriminate, seamless, full-scale bombardnt!
His battle experience was rich. Since Xiong Wu had not appeared until now, he must still be in a concealed state.
And since it did not launch a sneak attack just now, it ans it is still within the circle.
That made it too simple.
"Crack!"
Countless bolts of lightning flashed, golden serpents zigzagged wildly, and streaks of electric light fell densely. At this mont, everyone including Xiong Shiliu began to tremble uncontrollably.
Wang Wu was no exception, directly being blasted out of his passive concealnt state.
"Hahaha! What an adorable little bear, I have fate with you!"
In his laughter, a Golden Radiance Body-Fixing Talisman fell, immobilizing Wang Wu on the spot.
The next second, a sword weapon abruptly soared from this cultivator’s back, carrying with it a swirling radiance and sword aura, slicing open Xiong Shiliu’s plump chest in one stroke, its sharpness no less than the one Wang Wu had directly faced initially.
Just when Wang Wu thought Xiong Shiliu was surely dead, he saw its body crumble like foam, and in the next mont, its true self appeared over a hundred ters away.
"Right hand!"
Xiong Shiliu shouted fiercely, and within his voice lurked a certain terrifying, mysterious magic power. Upon hearing this word, even in his immobilized state, Wang Wu could hardly resist willingly wanting to cut off his own paw.
And more terrifyingly, Yuan Bupu, Wolf Bu’er, Niu Xiaocao, and Old Niu all simultaneously tried to chop off their claws and hooves, but due to the jarring effect of the Golden Light Thunder Talisman, they temporarily couldn’t.
But the cultivator was unlucky. His hand acted as if possessed, drawing a small knife swiftly and slicing off his own right hand in one stroke!
"Aaaaah!"
He scread in pain, finally realizing belatedly that what Xiong Shier said was not false, that Xiong Shiliu truly had the potential to beco the West Wilderness Demon Emperor.
But he had no ti to retaliate, in the next mont, Xiong Shiliu bellowed again.
"Right eye!"
"Aaaaah!"
The human cultivator decisively gouged out his own right eye once more.
On the contrary, the demons on this side were spared again due to the power of the Golden Light Thunder Talisman.
It’s purely that Xiong Shiliu grasped the timing perfectly; it even anticipated the cultivator’s anticipation and Xiong Shier’s anticipation.
It seed as if even Wang Wu and his Companion Demon Vine beca its pawns.
Because if it hadn’t deliberately let Xiong Shier know about Wang Wu’s existence, how could Xiong Shier have spoken those words in front of this human cultivator, stirring the cultivator’s greed, and then providing a bloody demonstration to educate, causing all teammates from then on to completely give up the path to Spirit Beast.
Damn, that must have been its plan all along!
When Wang Wu experienced this belated awakening, the battle outside had already ended.
Xiong Shiliu no longer used the Enchanting Heart Demon Technique, but instead, directly transford into a terrifying giant bear nearly a hundred ters tall, rushing forward, smashing the cultivator to pieces with a single paw, devouring him!
Straightforward and swift!
Instant kill!
Which is to say, from the start, none of the antics of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect’s cultivators would make a difference against Xiong Shiliu.
Its real intention was to deliver a vivid and highly advanced educational lesson.
Much more brilliant than the strategy of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys!
A few seconds later, Wang Wu was released from the immobilized state, and the demons recovered from the state of paralysis and shock under the golden lightning, yet all had heavy and complicated hearts.
Only Xiong Shiliu reverted to that rotund appearance, harmless to humans and animals, with an air of serenity.
But at this mont, even Wang Wu acknowledged, this guy indeed has the great potential to beco the West Wilderness Demon Emperor.
He even couldn’t help but delve deeply, wondering if Xiong Shiliu had used the Enchanting Heart Demon Technique to bewilder Xiong Shier, who always envied him but wasn’t yet willing to betray his own race, making him lose his sanity and alter his thoughts and perceptions in a dream illusion, thus surrendering.
If it was crafted intentionally, then it would be a three-bird shot with one stone indeed.
However, such an operation is really too difficult.
Unless Xiong Shiliu could foresee and target this Ten Thousand Poison Sect cultivator in advance, otherwise, if the high-ups among the human cultivators knew about it, then this sche would beco a full bear feast!
As for the truth, it’s feared it will never surface.
Yet regardless, Wang Wu would not dare to underestimate this foster father.
This is a true foster father!
"Let’s go, we can return to the Forbidden Land for half a year of rest, wait until winter cos, and then set off again, it won’t be too late."
Compared to Wang Wu, Yuan Bupu, aside from occasionally looking at Xiong Shiliu with a fleeting fervor in his eyes, remained very calm.
But it’s all aningless now. At this mont, all the little demons have won over their hearts completely.
