Chapter 341: The Underground Demon-locking Tower, Evil Qi Mutates Again
Boom!
The Earth King Worm fell to the ground, raising a cloud of thick dust.
Lan Die’s eyes widened with realization of Gong Qingqiu’s strength, her almond eyes filled with admiration and worship, determined to beco a woman of such power.
“Deserving of Elder Gong, to have defeated the Earth King Worm all by herself.”
Mo Ying, Yan Ruyu, and Jia Yulan ca over to offer their praises, their tone light with the relief of surviving a calamity.
“Fortunately, we arrived just in ti.” Gong Qingqiu also let out a sigh of relief, looking at Lan Die beside her, “You weren’t scared, were you?”
“No… not at all.” Lan Die shook her head.
“Elder, what brings you here, and with Junior Sister Lan Die?” Jia Yulan inquired as she looked at the two of them.
“I encountered a small problem in the illusionary realm on the fifth floor of the Cultivation Tower, so I decided to check out the Shuiyang City Ruins.” Gong Qingqiu then turned to the three won, “But what about you? What brought you here?”
“Of course, it’s for experience and to break through our bottlenecks,” Jia Yulan said.
“I see.” Gong Qingqiu nodded.
She looked down at the Earth King Worm on the ground, “How did this demonic beast co here?”
“It must have been to fight for territory.”
Mo Ying looked around and pointed at the Shuiyang City Ruins, where plenty of spiritual dicine grew, “This place is rife with spiritual dicine, all in their juvenile stages, but given ti, this will beco a rich dicinal garden.”
Gong Qingqiu nodded in agreent, deeming it to be so.
“Eh, what’s going on here?” Lan Die pointed at the ground, her surprise evident.
Everyone quickly looked over.
Perhaps it was caused by the previous tremors from the Earth King Worm, but they now saw a massive sinkhole had ford beneath the rubble of Shuiyang City, revealing a strange, glowing pagoda.
…
At the peak of Misty Peak.
Ye Feng opened the map on the Demon-locking Tower.
“There’s actually a Demon-locking Tower beneath the Shuiyang City Ruins!”
“Eh!”
“The annotation here states that this Demon-locking Tower is over a thousand years old, older than Biyue Villa, and the demonic beasts it suppressed have perished, leaving only their cold remains.”
“Such an ancient Demon-locking Tower is problematic!”
Ye Feng’s expression changed drastically, and he quickly took out the Heaven-Asking Mirror to observe the scene. He happened upon the sinkhole that had collapsed in Shuiyang City Ruins and also saw the tower beneath it.
“This is a serious matter!”
Ye Feng frowned.
…
The ruins of Shuiyang City.
The five ‘Golden Flowers’ stood in the sky, overlooking the Demon-locking Tower.
Nurous streams of black and gray Evil Qi rose from the ground like signal smokes, converging towards the Demon-locking Tower.
The fragnted remains of the Earth King Worm and the other perished demonic beasts also began to fly towards the Demon-locking Tower, bathing in Evil Qi and rging into an imnse creature.
It towered a hundred ters high, enormously bloated in form.
A Middle-Rank Demon General Peak aura erupted from it, like a terrifying storm sweeping the vicinity.
“Another living being made from the aggregation of Evil Qi!”
Gong Qingqiu and the others had serious expressions.
Even Ye Feng, who was behind the scenes, widened his eyes as he realized that the situation was far from simple.
“Such dense Evil Qi!”
“I want it all!”
Ye Feng transford into a burst of silver light and vanished instantly.
“Roar…”
Above the Demon-locking Tower, the at mountain-like creature of Evil Qi bellowed, crushing the tower with a stomp before soaring into the sky, appearing as if nurous demonic beasts were standing together, emitting a hair-raising aura.
“Quickly use the secret technique ‘Shared Hatred’!”
Gong Qingqiu imdiately ordered.
Mo Ying, Jia Yulan, and Yan Ruyu swiftly ford hand seals, channeling their essences into Gong Qingqiu, amplifying her aura by thirty percent.
‘Shared Hatred’, a joint offensive secret technique, was one of the rewards for the second phase of the Sect Leader, which after being used, could bolster the strength of a single cultivator.
“Shuiyang Secret Art!”
Gong Qingqiu once again executed the auxiliary cultivation thod, doubling her power to reach the Level Six Peak of the Elent Gathering Realm, matching the level of the monster before her, fearless.
“Roar!”
The monster attacked.
Suddenly, it hurled a shining hook through the air, which traced a perfect arc before aiming from behind to strike at Gong Qingqiu.
“Mystical Spirit Catalogue!”
Gong Qingqiu ford hand seals, and a scroll of mountain and water scenery unfurled behind her, snatching the cold, sharp hook into it.
Mo Ying and the others felt a chill run down their spines.
Had it not been for Gong Qingqiu’s intervention, they feared they would have been struck by that hook, more intricate than any Sword Combat Technique, and would have perished from their path.
“You all fall back.”
Gong Qingqiu’s aura surged, shoving the disciples several miles away, with translucent lines of light connecting them.
These were the linking lines of the secret technique ‘Shared Hatred’.
If Gong Qingqiu’s strength were exhausted, the others could infuse her with their power, ensuring a steady stream of energy.
“Roar!”
The plump monster, seeing its hook shot blocked, imdiately let out an angry roar. Rings of visibly powerful sound waves, brimming with abundant energy, surged towards Gong Qingqiu.
“Heavenly Moon Strike!”
Gong Qingqiu pointed with a bent finger.
A bright full moon materialized in midair, colliding with the sonic waves. Both shattered simultaneously, transforming into countless teorites that hamred down on the massive beast.
Whoosh!
It hooked onto a distant mountain range, yanked hard to dodge the teoritic bombardnt, and flicked its hook again, aiming to entangle Gong Qingqiu.
But again, the spell “Mystique Catalogue” unleashed its power, as countless green vines stretched out to protect Gong Qingqiu.
Seizing the mont, she ford hand seals, and five strands of energy quickly condensed around her, coalescing into a grey beam of light.
“Aoow!”
The monster, inheriting the mory of the Earth King Worm, was deeply fearful of the spell “Primordial Unity Qi” and instantly retreated.
But innurable vines broke through the earth, trapping it.
Rip!
The grey energy, akin to the sharpest sword aura in the world, easily cleaved the beast in two. The various strands of integrated Evil Qi consciousness collapsed on the spot, turning into a cloud of black mist drifting away.
“You’re not getting away! Flas Burn All Directions.”
Gong Qingqiu changed her hand seals, and a surging inferno erupted, resembling fiery birds with scorching wings that chased after the black mist.
Whoosh!
The black mist disintegrated on its own, and the fiery birds missed their target.
“Be careful!”
Mo Ying suddenly warned.
Gong Qingqiu also realized sothing was amiss. Hastily, she looked towards the cleaved monster and discovered its body igniting into flas, shrinking into a ten-ter tall, muscular black-armored warrior.
The previously vanished black mist was now rging into the warrior’s forehead.
Hum!
His eyes shone with a cold light; the black-armored warrior ca to life, his form shedding the at Mountain Monster guise and transforming into a combat mode. His aura leaped to High-Rank Demon General Level, comparable to the eighth layer of Elent Gathering Realm!
Crack!
In just an encounter, the muscular black-armored warrior’s iron fist shattered the world of mountains and rivers created by “Mystique Catalogue”, releasing a violent surge of energy that knocked Gong Qingqiu backward, with blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
Mo Ying and the others, connected in spirit with her, all uttered stifled groans, injured as well.
“It can actually transform again!”
Everyone felt their scalps tingle.
Compared to the Earth Demon King of Biyue Villa, this at Mountain Monster had even more horrifying talent, achieving transformation after being slain.
“Hehehe…”
From the muscular black-armored warrior ca a strange laugh, “Thank you for killing , allowing to transform. Now, it is ti for you to die!”
The black-armored warrior leaped forwards, instantly arriving in front of Gong Qingqiu, with his iron fist rapidly extending into a sharp heavy cleaver, ready to strike down.
“Elder, run quick!”
The disciples scread in alarm.
Gong Qingqiu wanted to escape, but she was a mont too slow. Even though she might avoid a fatal blow, in the next instant, she would be annihilated by the fierce warrior.
In this critical mont, a flash of silver light appeared from nowhere.
Gong Qingqiu saw a tall figure materialize in front, raising his left hand to catch the heavy, sharp cleaver.
This person was Ye Feng!
Utilizing the power of the Spatial Compass, he had expended six middle-grade Spirit Stones, performing Instantaneous Movent twelve tis in succession, finally arriving at the battlefield.
“Hmm?”
The muscular black-armored warrior’s pupils contracted.
He violently tugged at the cleaver, only to realize that the man before him was immovable like a towering mountain.
Crack!
Ye Feng clenched his fist, breaking the cleaver into countless pieces. He then swept his leg, causing the muscular black-armored warrior to explode on impact, utterly defenseless.
“Wow… so powerful!”
Gong Qingqiu and the rest were dumbstruck.
Ye Feng had just kicked apart a High-Rank Demon General with a single leg!
Evil Qi and the motley consciousnesses of various demons once again ford into a black mist, attempting to flee and leaving behind a vicious threat:
“When I reassemble and return, I will make sure you…”
“You won’t get the chance,” Ye Feng said coldly.
He extended his hand, using his Slaughter Energy to devour the thick Evil Qi. The demonic consciousnesses crumbled quickly, dissipating like smoke, never to reassemble.
“Ding, Slaughter Energy has increased by one-third.”
System notification.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng withdrew his hand, a slight smile forming on his lips.
He, with the power of Slaughter Energy, was the nesis of all Evil Qi in the world, capable of forcibly devouring it and using it for himself.
Gong Qingqiu, Lan Die, Mo Ying, and other disciples looked at Ye Feng, never expecting him to appear.
And more so, to hang the powerful black-armored warrior out to dry!
