Grasping the Evil No Chapter 260 He is Zhou Ming!

Chapter 260: Chapter 260 He is Zhou Ming!

Lu Zhan made a step forward as a column of dark demonic smoke rose from all directions, encircling his body.

Within the smoke, his body grew twice as big than normal for every step he made.

From just a body with a height of two zhang*, he beca 512 zhang* tall after making nine steps.

At the mont he took the tenth step, his body was more than a thousand zhang* tall, transforming into a dark giant ape while letting out a deafening, enraged roar.

When the smoke dissipated, a dark giant ape wearing black armor entered into everyone’s sight. His eyes were blazing with black flas and his roar was thunderous. Lifting his thousand zhang massive halberd, he slamd it against the ground.

Under that trendous impact, the thousand li* fire platform was nearly destroyed by his single strike.

Jing Yan’s eyes turned solemn. Similarly, he took ten steps forward and transford into a giant white ape. The dark ape swung his halberd at him but the giant white ape’s hand suddenly glowed with silver light and smacked on the incoming gigantic halberd. Imdiately, due to the large repulsive force resulting from the collision between two imnse forces, Jing Yun, the white ape retreated for hundreds of zhang before he could steady himself.

However, Lu Zhan, the dark ape was sent flying away for nearly a thousand zhang* by the repulsive force.

Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with surprise.

These two giant apes are no doubt the two Demon Generals’ demon avatars.

The two of them actually have the bloodline of the sa beast but judging from their power, Lu Zhan is obviously weaker than Jing Yun.

The giant white ape stared coldly at the black ape and roared in rage.

"Among the Mountain Ape Bloodline, the bronze-backed dark ape is only second-rate, while the silver-backed white ape is in the middle and lastly, the golden-backed ape is the strongest! Your bloodline is just the bloodline of the bronze-backed dark ape. You are not and will never be my match. If you don’t retreat now, don’t bla

for not showing any rcy to you!"

"Arrogant bastard! Do you really think I’m going to die?! Go to hell! Demonic technique, Black teor!"

The black ape bellowed in anger and threw his black halberd aside. He knew that he could not gain the upper hand from just comparing his strength with the white ape, so he decided to use his demonic techniques as the ans of his attacks.

In his dark ape demon manifestation, he perford hand seals in rapid speed. A split second later, a few black teorites appeared in the sky. Each and every one of them fell down in the forms of light rays, bombarding the white ape directly.

This technique greatly resembled that ultimate technique of the Flower Demoness – Demon Starfall, which was a Mid-Grade Nascent Soul Realm demonic technique.

It was just that the destructive power of the technique displayed by him was at the Low Grade Divine Transformation Realm!

Each of the teorites were ford using his demon power and each of them were nearly a hundred zhang* in size. When they were in the middle of falling, eerie black flas would leave behind trails due to the friction against the air. A trace of those flas were capable of killing a Nascent Soul Realm demon with ease.

However, despite the formidable look of his demonic technique, it was not even worth ntioning in Jing Yun’s eyes.

Wearing a mocking smile on his face, the white ape perford the sa hand seals as the black ape.

"What a thick-headed creature...If that’s your choice, then die! Demonic technique, White teor!"

It was also a technique of teorites. However, when it was displayed by the white ape, the destructive power of the technique was 30% stronger than that of the black ape’s technique.

Pieces of silver-white teorites collided against the black teorites, emitting loud rumbling sounds. The sea of black flas clashed against the sea of white flas. However, the intensity of the white flas gradually grew, overpowering the black flas. As the first wave of the black flas was destroyed, the remaining black flas were instantly engulfed.

In just three breaths, the white flas had completely devoured the black flas, surrounding the black ape who was standing amidst the black flas. The next second, an agonizing shriek was heard from him.

A great deal of black blood could be seen pouring down while gleaming under the sunlight. The manifestation of the black ape was totally incinerated. Lu Zhan, whose face was stained with blood dashed out from the sea of flas in a fluster, retreating beyond the boundaries of the fire platform. His breathing was irregular and feeble, his body being already critically injured.

However, before he could escape far away, Jing Yun withdrew his manifestation and returned to his original human form. Transforming into a column of silver cloud, he erged before Lu Zhan in a flash. He raised his index finger which glowed in silver light and pressed towards Lu Zhan’s glabella, intending to incapacitate the latter’s Sea of Consciousness.

Lu Zhan hurriedly tilted his head to one side. His forehead might be safe from that attack but it was not that lucky for his right eye. Gruesoly, Jing Yun jabbed into his right eye socket, literally blinding it.

With his teeth clenched, Lu Zhan harshly thumped on his chest. Under that self-harming technique, he mustered all his strength and turned into a cloud of black smoke to escape further away from Jing Yun. He glared angrily at Jing Yun with one eye while covering the other eye with his hand. Just as he wanted to spit so curses at him, he choked and continuously coughed out a few mouthfuls of black blood.

"You...bastard...Since when have you cultivated the manifestation of the silver ape...Damn you... How dare you blind my eye!"

Lu Zhan lost in the first match!

Jing Yun’s eyes shined with a cold light. He did not expect that Lu Zhan would escape so swiftly or else he would not have just poked one of his eyes to blindness. Instead, he would have completely finished him off!

In fact, he had hidden a silver demon charm in his sleeve. He planned to activate the charm which was able to seal off the vicinity of the battle arena after he destroys Lu Zhan’s physical body, leaving no place for Lu Zhan’s demon soul to run and planned on killing him for good.

"It’s such a pity that only one of his eyes had been blinded. With his current cultivation level, he only needs a hundred years of cultivation to recover from the injuries he suffered..."

Jing Yun sneered and returned to the fire platform. His gaze locked unto Lu Qing, displaying his eagerness to continue battling.

In a battle like this, as long as one was not defeated, he or she could choose to continue and fight.

Lu Qing was infuriated. Lu Zhan and him were as intimate as brothers. After witnessing what Jing Yun had done to Lu Zhan’s eye, he keenly wished that he could tear him to pieces.

Taking one step forward, a vague shadow of an erald green dragon appeared from his body. His eyes flashed with green lightning.

"Jing Yun, co and accept your death!"

Jing Yun’s expression imdiately turned solemn, feeling astonished inwardly.

I didn’t expect this Lu Qing’s Green Dragon Bloodline have actually gotten stronger than in the past. Judging by the looks of it, gaining victory against him might not be as simple.

He moved a step backwards and cupped his fists towards the golden-armored Demon General.

"Demon General Jin Qun, please display your skills!"

"Very well! A re demon with the incomplete Green Dragon Bloodline...How is it possible for a being like him to compare with my true Golden Mastiff Bloodline?!"

Ordinary bloodline, hybrid bloodline, incomplete immorial bloodline, true immorial bloodline and the royal bloodline!

Lu Zhan and Jing Yun both possessed the Mountain Ape Bloodline. Despite there being just a slight difference in the types of their bloodline, the difference in power was massive. As for Jin Qun and Lu Qing, the forr was a holder of the true Golden Mastiff Bloodline while the latter was only a holder of the incomplete Green Dragon bloodline. That is to say, the difference in power between the two of them was far greater!

Lu Qing’s eyes flashed with a shred of fear but in the next second, he eliminated that feeling within his mind. Knowing that his demon manifestation was not as powerful as his opponent’s, he did not go through transformation and began to perform hand seals instead. Using his five fingers to claw at the hollow sky, thousands of traces of green demon power spread out, turning into thousands of green tornadoes. Each and every one of them were as sharp as a blade and their strength was enough to simply tear a Nascent Soul Realm demon apart.

"Demonic technique – Wild Wood Violent Mist! Change!"

Subsequent to the changes of his hand seals, each of the tornadoes split into two and then into four, creating countless green tornadoes which began shredding the thousand li* fire platform.

Standing in the middle of the green tornadoes which was lethal to Peak Nascent Soul Realm experts, Jin Qun’s eyes flashed with contempt.

A ray of faint golden light radiated from his body and turned into a head of a golden mastiff. It opened its mouth widely, sucking in every blade-like tornadoes.

"Demonic technique, Wood Crushing Golden Hound!"

With just a demonic technique, he had already neutralized the technique displayed by Lu Qing. The disdain within his eyes did not recede. He made a step forward and raised his hand into the sky and grabbed the sunlight which seed to be behaving at his will. It was caught in his hand and turned into a dazzling spear emitting golden light. The longer it basked in the sunlight, the longer and brighter the spear beca. Jin Qun patted his newly conjured weapon using one hand and imdiately, it pierced straight at Lu Qing’s dantian with the speed of lightning. His objective was to destroy Lu Qing’s demon soul with just one strike!

It’s quick. Too quick!

Lu Qing’s eyes widened with surprise. Such demonic technique surely was a Mid-Grade Divine Transformation Realm technique which logically could only be displayed by Mid Divine Transformation Realm beings. Unexpectedly, Jin Qun who was just at the Early Divine Transformation Realm was already capable of using it!

So this is an expert who awakened the true immorial bloodline... If he didn’t awaken the true bloodline, how could he display a demonic technique which has a higher level than his own cultivation level!?

"I can’t take it! But I can’t retreat either!"

Lu Qing’s eyes flashed with resolution. Green dragon scales slowly covered his entire body while two dragon horns grew on his head.

He struck using his dragon claw. With the help of his bloodline, the strength of his claw was already beyond the ordinary Jade Life Body Refining Realm.

But to his surprise, his hand began to burn without any reason as soon as he ca into contact with the spear!

The temperature of this golden spear is terribly high. It’s just as hot as the true sun!

With just a touch, one of his arms was burnt to ashes!

"I can’t take this!"

His expression changed greatly. At this mont, it was no longer about whether he wanted to retreat or not. On the contrary, it was about how he could retreat!

If I don’t move, I will surely die. If I move, I will still have 30% chances of surviving!

"Burning blood!"

Lu Qing gritted his teeth as he ignited the thin trace of Green Dragon Bloodline within his immortal veins.

As he unleashed the power, a gust of strong wind whistled like thousands of green blades slashing on the golden spear. However, it rely managed to stop the golden spear for half a breath and afterwards, the strong wind dissipated.

During that period of half a breath, Lu Qing vanished in green smoke and kept moving backwards to run away from the attack. But a beam of golden light flashed past him. Jin Qun was already standing behind him. He single-handedly held one of Lu Qing’s arms and violently ripped it apart while his other hand slapped on Lu Qing’s dantian.

"Break!"

Lu Qing spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell from the sky. His demon soul was on the verge of collapsing.

If it wasn’t because of the High Profound Earth Grade armor which was gifted by the Honorable Demon General for his demon soul, he would have already died.

However, even though he managed to escape death for now, his condition was worse than Lu Zhan’s. He needed to enter secluded ditation for at least 200 years in order to regenerate his broken arm, recover the injuries of his demon soul as well as the loss of his demon blood.

"Despicable..."

A group of black-armored demon soldiers ca to Lu Qing’s aid and held him up. All of them were stricken with fear.

At the sa ti, the sa feeling surged within the hearts of tens of thousands of demons in the Luo Yun Province.

Lu Wan’er’s eyes glead with worries. She pulled Yao Fei’s sleeve who was standing beside her with a pleading look. As for the Flower Demoness and the Wind Demoness, they both turned to Yao Fei with the sa look as Lu Wan’er.

"So this is the power of the Pure Fla Tribe? They truly deserve to be regarded as the first tribe among the Lu Clan. Be it the Demon General of the tribe or the Demon Generals from the Upper World, their ans are incomparable at all for the generals from the other lower ranking tribes... Lu Bei will be in a dangerous spot... Although he might have killed 3 Divine Transformation Severing Realm experts on his own, but they were all the Demon Generals of the Eighth Tribe. In other words, they were not soone who could rival the generals from the First Tribe... Sister Yao Fei, you are a Late Divine Transformation Realm expert. Please save Lu Bei. Don’t let him get hurt. Please, I beg you..."

"Silly girl... You must not underestimate your beloved brother. He conceals a lot about himself. Haven’t I told you before? I really can’t see through him...At that mont, you might think it’s a joke and teased that I was just Late Nascent Soul Realm cultivator...But don’t you get it now? I am at the Late Divine Transformation Realm and yet I can’t see through him... Moreover, this battle was ticulously planned by Lu Daochen. It’s considered fortunate for Lu Qing and Lu Zhan as they were able to remain alive. In Lu Daochen’s heart, they just serve as a contrast in this battle. What he truly looks highly on is Lu Bei’s capabilities... Therefore, Lu Daochen did not call in the First General of the Luo Yun Tribe... From his perspective, even the First General might not be able to win against the Pure Fla Tribe and obtain the map from Lu Jiefen. The only person who he thinks could achieve victory is Lu Bei! But..."

As Yao Fei spoke until here, her brows knitted tightly together.

There was one fact about Lu Bei which made her feel that his existence was truly a pity. However, she did not plan to tell Lu Wan’er about it as she was afraid that she would break the latter’s heart.

Lu Bei isn’t a demon at all. In stark contrast, he is a human disguising as a demon...

If it was not because of this, Yao Fei would definitely have recruited him to join the Spirit King Palace based on his capabilities...

Since he does not belong to our race, his heart and intentions must be different from ours...

Therefore, no matter how outstanding he might be, Yao Fei would never rope him in.

"So Elder Sister is saying that Lu Bei will be able to defeat the three Divine Transformation Realm generals?!" Lu Wan’er asked eagerly, hoping to hear a clear answer. In her eyes, since Sister Yao Fei was a Late Divine Transformation Realm being, if she said that Lu Bei would win, then her judgent would surely be right!

"Perhaps. But it might not be a good thing... Lu Daochen, why are you painstakingly recruiting a mber of a different race? What is your objective?" Yao Fei’s eyes beca even more confused.

In just a period of ti for half an incense stick to burn, the Fourth General and the Sixth General of the Luo Yun Tribe had already been grievously wounded. The demons of the Luo Yun Province were greatly devastated by it.

On the fire platform, the opposing team still had three generals whereas there was only Lu Bei left in the team of the Luo Yun Tribe.

The rumor in regards to Lu Bei killing three generals on his own was widely spread but none of them personally witnessed it other than the heads he brought back. Naturally, quite a lot of demons were doubtful about the validity of the rumor.

"Even if Lu Bei really killed three generals, the three generals on the fire platform aren’t like those of the Lie Tu Tribe..."

"Lu Bei... Perhaps he might be able to win against Jing Yun but if he faces Jin Qun and Li Ban, I suppose he will probably be defeated... After all, he has yet to attain the Divine Transformation Realm. He isn’t a true Demon General. I am actually wondering what Master Lu is thinking... He should have summoned the First and Second General for a big matter like this..."

"I guess maybe even they would not stand a chance against Jing Yun. The White teor technique which he displayed earlier was really scary..."

"For , I have a feeling that Lu Bei will flee away later... Fleeing isn’t humiliating at all, you know. On the contrary, gambling with your life despite knowing perfectly well that you can’t possibly win is just foolish..."

All of a sudden, a voice that defied the assumptions made by the rest of the crowd was heard.

"Nonsense! This Lu Bei will lose to Jing Yun? Shut the hell up! This young master can assure you all that he will easily beat the crap out of the three of them. Not only that, he might even kill all of them..."

A low-toned voice that was loud enough to be heard by the crowd echoed towards those present .

As soon as they caught sight of the owner of the voice, countless people hurriedly stayed away from him as if they had just seen a ghost.

Lu Tianming?! He’s the man who was put in a grievous state by Lu Bei on the first day he arrived at the province.

Under the treatnt of Lu Daochen’s Fifth Revolution Pill, this young master could already walk a bit after just three days.

However, he never dared to appear in front of Ning Fan again. It was why he did not even attend the banquet in the hall.

Aside from that, he did not believe that Ning Fan would lose to Jing Yun at all.

Well, Lu Tianming might have a rather bad personality, his power was definitely not a joke. His foresight was even keener and sharper than common cultivators.

Among the seven generals of the Luo Yun Tribe, except for the First General, he was bold enough to offend the other six. He was so brazen that he even dared to harass the only sister of the Second General.

He was not afraid of anyone, including the First General whom could only make him feel a tiny shred of dread. It was because if he successfully attains the Divine Transformation Realm hundreds of years later, his power would definitely be far greater than the First General’s.

But this man who treated almost everyone else with contempt ever since he was born was utterly terrified like a dead dog by Ning Fan who had just entered the province three days ago.

Without moving a single muscle on his hand, Ning Fan had caused him to be seriously injured. Before Ning Fan even lifted his eyes and looked at him, he had nearly beco a dead man...

It was Lu Tianming’s first ti eting a ferocious person like him.

Not only was his cultivation level scary, but also his personality. Once he is offended, he would definitely leave no chance for that person to have revenge, as the saying goes: cut the weeds and dig up the roots!

What made Lu Tianming feel like he was the luckiest man in the world was that he still managed to stay alive even after offending Ning Fan. It was completely beyond his expectations. But unfortunately, that silly boy did not know that his life had barely been preserved because his old ancestor personally lent him a hand...

"I, Lu Tianming, am going to set up a betting pool here. The bet is whether Lu Bei can defeat the three generals all by himself!"

Hehe. What a good opportunity to get so money...

Well obviously, a person like Lu Tianming would never let a chance like this to slip away.

In the province, the discussions among the crowd continued on. However, the atmosphere beca dead silent when Ning Fan took the first step forward unto the platform.

"Which one of you wants to co first..."

His gaze indifferently scanned through the three generals as if they were worthless. Especially when his gaze landed on Li Ban, his eyelids were partially closed while tilting his face to another side, showing even more contempt.

Upon witnessing the look on his face, Li Ban’s heart boiled with anger. That pent-up anger nearly pushed him to step forward and beat the hell out of Ning Fan.

But Jing Yun acted faster than him as he had already moved forward, standing in front of Li Ban.

"General Li, let

fight this battle! In the past, this man was extrely disrespectful towards . But considering that he might still be useful to

in accomplishing the mission, I’ll bear with him... Since the map will fall into our hands after the battle today, he is already a useless person to

and there is no need for

to give him the thirty tufts of Blue Fla Grass that I have prepared... As such, I can now directly kill him to quench my hatred towards him!"

"Fine! You go!"

The three of them treated Ning Fan like poultry in a slaughterhouse that was about to die as they thought a Nascent Soul Realm demon like him was not even worth ntioning.

Especially Jing Yun, when he thought of Ning Fan’s disrespect and disdainful deanor, his eyes burned with rage.

"Lu Bei! Let

show you my new magical treasure. It’s more than enough to send you directly to hell! Cloud Thunder Seal, suppress!"

In a flash, Jing Yun was holding a silver-white thunder seal. It was a truly formidable treasure. Even though it was just a Profound Heaven Defective Treasure, as soon as it was hurled into the sky, it imdiately summoned thunder and wind.

But before this treasure was about to transform into its full form in mid-air, Ning Fan vanished in a cloud of smoke and appeared above the treasure, stomping heavily on it!

"Go back down!"

It might look like just a simple move but it had caused so cracks on the vast sky. Under his trendous force, the upward motion of the Cloud Thunder Seal had completely co to a halt.

"Jade Life Realm! Hmph. He’s just at the first level of that body refining realm. It’s not sufficient to break this seal. Cloud Seal, Thunder Transformation!"

Jing Yun sneered coldly. With a change of hand seals, the silver-white seal turned into an elusive silver lightning, striking directly at Ning Fan’s forehead.

Other than the Divine Transformation Realm beings who cultivated the lightning elent, no one would dare to take the lightning strike head-on.

Ning Fan’s eyes beca cold. A blood-red lightning star gradually erged on his glabella. He reached out his hands, directly catching the lightning strike and brutally squeezing it within his hands until it completely dispersed!

After the destruction of its lightning form, the magical treasure returned to its original form of a seal. The spirit of the weapon which had yet to mature was showing signs of fear towards Ning Fan as it was trying to get away from him. When he activated his lightning star, he beca the master of lightning and thunder. The treasure was indeed fearful towards Ning Fan!

"How co it would end up like this?! Why would this Cloud Thunder Seal be afraid of a Nascent Soul Realm junior?!" Jing Yun’s eyes flashed with astonishnt. But what surprised him even more was when Ning Fan pressed against his glabella, taking out a blood-red lightning whip.

He whipped on the Cloud Thunder Seal once. Although it was literally hit on the magical treasure, there were rays of blood-red lightning suddenly rushing towards Jing Yun’s dantian.

*Puff*

Demon General Jing Yun continuously retreated for a few steps. His eyes widened with shock.

Striking one’s treasure but attacking one’s Nascent Soul? What kind of technique is this?!

On the other hand, when the whip was shown to everyone and before Jin Qun had even made a comnt about it, Li Ban was both surprised and enraged!

"Dragon Tendon! My Dragon Tendon!! It is you, after all!"

At this very mont, he finally confird that the person before him was none other than the insignificant ant who defied his might back in Great Jin – Zhou Ming!

Despite that, Li Ban found it difficult to believe that the ant who could barely withstand a single blow from him in the past was now on the sa fire platform, standing on an equal footing with him after just tens of years!

However, his surprise did not end right then and there. Sothing even more unbelievable for him was going to unfold!

One whip, ten whips, a hundred whips!

It seed like he completed a hundred strikes in just a single breath without stopping. A hundred shadows of the blood-red whip landed on the Cloud Thunder Seal.

The blood lightning rcilessly wreaked havoc within Jing Yun’s dantian. His breathing weakened instantly. After retreating for a hundred steps, he finally stopped and powerlessly half-kneeling on the ground. The amount of damage that was inflicted on him had caused his cultivation level to nearly regress to below the Divine Transformation Realm...

"Strike.... Striking one’s treasure and killing one’s Nascent Soul...I rember now... It’s the secret art of the Zhou Clan...ntioned by the Honorable Demon General...In my current condition, even if my opponent is just a Peak Nascent Soul Realm demon, it will still be dangerous for ... I must run!"

With hatred within his eyes, he vanished in a beam of silver light, intending to get out from the fire platform.

He actually knew about the Zhou Clan from the Endless Sea. Apparently, there might be so mysteries behind this matter.

But Ning Fan was not interested in getting himself involved in a matter like that.

As he saw Jing Yun was trying to escape, he mockingly snorted.

The purple star in his left eye flashed and a pair of massive purple crystal wings grew on his back. Fluttering his wings, he dashed directly to Jing Yun’s back. Wielding his whip forward, it landed on the latter’s body.

The power of lightning was warded off by his armor. But the force of the lash was like thousands of mountains crashing down upon him. Moreover, Jing Yun had never anticipated that Ning Fan’s speed would nearly rival a Mid Divine Transformation Realm being’s. It was completely impossible for him to outrun him with his current speed.

Under that strike, his armor cracked and broke apart. He coughed up a mouthful of blood and fell back into the fire platform.

But when he was halfway from falling down in the sky, a column of dark purple smoke flashed past him. Ning Fan erged right in front of him. Pointing out his index finger and middle finger, Ning Fan plunged them straight into Jing Yun’s eyes.

"Arghhhh!"

Jing Yun let out a painful wail. His eyes had been blinded.

Without hesitation, Ning Fan smacked him on his head. The massive force of his palm caused Jing Yun’s body to disintegrate into a cloud of blood mist, knocking his demon soul unconscious.

Ning Fan opened his mouth wide and sucked in the blood mist while grasping the demon soul with his hand!

His eyes shined without a hint of pity and swallowed down Jing Yun’s demon soul!

At that mont, an imnse Baleful Qi which was comparable to that of a True Wild Beast spread throughout the province!

Countless people felt chills running down their spines. As for the Fla General, Lu Jiefen who was standing outside the fire platform, he raved with absolute ager.

"You killed my Demon General! You are courting death!"

"Stop right there! There shall be no external interference for this battle!" Lu Daochen appeared in front of Lu Jiefen in a column of green smoke, blocking him. Deep inside, he was deeply flabbergasted by Ning Fan.

This man is really decisive in killing!
