Chapter 332 The Escape of the Heavenly Demon
"Not good!" Wei Huan said in his heart, but he also knew that he had no way to stop it.
This celestial demon should have noticed something was wrong.
But how did it discover it?
Humans cannot smell the scent of celestial demon blood in the air, but such a concentration is already very abnormal in the eyes of fellow celestial demons.
The Demon-Faced Sky Demon didn't know why, but he had to find out the problem.
As it got closer to the oncoming demon, the fragrance of blood became stronger.
Yes, something went wrong!
Is it! ?
"Bang!" The force of the rebound hit the Demon Eye Lord heavily. The Demon Eye Lord exploded instantly and returned to the tomb.
Wei Huan tilted his head back, and the green flame in his left eye faded.
He turned his head to look at the huge projection screen in the conference room, and saw the truth at the same time.
After the illusion of the Demon Eye Lord disappeared, Dianma completely showed its ferocious appearance as it advanced to the half-step god level.
The seemingly harmless and elegant jellyfish body has now grown more tentacles, hundreds and thousands of them. Although the tentacles are still in a white skeleton state and still look lustrous, they are now covered with countless densely packed spines.
The barb was hard and emerald green. A drop of green liquid overflowed from the tip of the barb and fell to the ground, making a half-meter deep hole in the ground.
And these hooks with green liquid flowing out have been actively entangled by the silver sky demon, deeply penetrated into its skin, and injected into it drop by drop.
Hideous and twisted green patches appeared on the body of the silver sky demon, which was extremely terrifying.
It's poison.
It is a terrible poison.
That’s right, after eating the eighth-level demon lord, Dian Ma gained the ability of “poison”.
Wei Huan has never taken poison seriously, simply because his undead are not afraid of poison. Almost 99% of poisons cannot work on the undead. Even if they do work, the poison will be eliminated after they die and are resurrected in the tomb.
Wei Huan never realized how powerful the poison was, so after he traveled through mountains and rivers and finally found the soul of the eighth-level demon lord, he was upset for a long time when what he finally awakened was poison.
But the change of ideas was also very simple. One day, when he woke up from a good sleep, his clear brain came out of the dead end, and Wei Huan suddenly realized that he was the only one who was not afraid of toxins, but besides him, who else in the species was not afraid of them?
The Demon Lord can become the Son of the World and lead the demons with the help of poison. This poison is not an ordinary poison.
The Demon Lord's poison, plus his Netherworld's cold poison, how many creatures in this world can withstand such poison?
In order to test the damage of Dian Ma's poison, Wei Huan took a drop of poison and fed it to a level six demon.
The sixth-level demon didn't even last a second before dying on the ground. The Netherworld Fire continued to burn in his body for a long time, and even his ashes were burned, completely vaporizing in the world.
So scary!
With such a toxic attack, not only the enemy but even the combat team would probably be unable to cooperate in the battle.
Wei Huan didn't think that anyone in this world could break free from the attack of this poison, because it involved the laws, and they were not shallow.
However, Wei Huan was also very clear that the weakness of the poison attack was actually very obvious. When facing a powerful life form, it would inevitably take longer to take effect.
The celestial demon is not a fool. Once he senses something unusual, he will definitely avoid the poison.
If the poison doesn't reach your body, it will have no effect.
Therefore, no matter how great the pressure from the Demon-Faced Sky Demon was, he placed the Demon-Eye Lord here in order to continue creating illusions so that the Silver Sky Demon could not see the thorns and the poison on them.
In order to hide the pain of the thorns piercing the flesh, Wei Huan did not hesitate to let the undead army crawl onto the body of the silver sky demon and risk their lives, just to create the scene of an ant biting an elephant.
Moreover, the illusion cannot be used only on the silver sky demon. The devil-faced sky demon was also affected by the illusion. It retreated while fighting and retreated to three kilometers away, and was about to exceed the illusion distance of the Demon Eye Lord.
Wei Huan had no choice but to ask Daxiong and Datou to come back.
However, this abrupt action caused the Demon-Faced Sky Demon to become suspicious, and after it calmed down, it noticed something unusual.
Wei Huan looked at the colorful silver sky demon, which still had large areas of original color, and secretly said it was a pity.
If this demon came alone this time, it would surely die.
But this time it has gained experience, and it will not be easy to kill it using the same method next time.
"ah--"
Wei Huan was thinking about how to save the situation when a sharp howl exploded in his soul sea. It was anger, fear, and deep hatred, which stirred up a huge storm in Wei Huan's soul sea.
His legs went weak and he swayed, and he had to hold on to the table to keep his balance.
Looking at the virtual projection screen again, I saw that the two celestial demons suddenly tangled together, their heads became sharp, and they crashed into the void, and a void passage appeared directly in front of them.
The two celestial demons, or rather the devil-faced celestial demon wrapped around the silver celestial demon, plunged into the void and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Watching them leave, Wei Huan didn't know whether to feel regret or relief.
If he continued to kill, he might not be a match for the two celestial demons. In order to support his mother's enlargement, his dark power was almost exhausted.
But if I hold on a little longer, can I really kill a celestial demon?
Letting a tiger go back into the mountains will only lead to endless troubles.
After all, his strength was still a little weak. If he could reach Sequence Seven, he would have the confidence to keep these two celestial demons...
"What!? Xu Qingqiang was taken away?"
Mu Zhong's panicked voice suddenly rang in his ears, and Wei Huan's scattered thoughts suddenly gathered and he looked over hurriedly.
Mu Zhong stared at the space where the Sky Demon disappeared and thought for a few seconds before giving an order: "Let the Sky Bug follow and take a look. And the Diviner, hurry! Don't let the space be repaired!"
Wei Huan wanted to say that he would go by himself, but after feeling the dark power running out, he didn't say anything.
He had neither the ability to travel through space nor the skills of the Gambler Sequence to hide his body, so tracking was not his forte.
The premise for him to take risks is that he is confident enough, not really taking risks. He is very clear about his own importance. If he really dies, the human race on Blue Star will probably rise again.
The Sky Bug and the Fortune Teller followed, along with the [Starship Pilot] of Pilot Sequence Six.
It happened that they were riding in mechas driven by the pilot sequence, in groups of three, and flew into the space rift more than ten times before stopping.
The next three sequences also stay outside the space rift to maintain it, so as to prevent people who enter it from getting lost in the other dimension and unable to come back.
Such orderliness obviously showed that a contingency plan had been made for this situation before.
Mu Zhong has always been the most reliable at critical moments, with quick thoughts and foresight.
Mu Zhong arranged people to track them and called a medical team to treat the injured.
It turned out that before the silver sky demon left, it was not just roaring at Wei Huan. It used mental blasting, and all the soldiers who were not in the chariot fell down, suffering a lot of injuries. Now it depends on whether Xia Yu can rescue them.
It has been a long time since Wei Huan was reborn and he hasn't been so embarrassed.
Even if he won this battle to defend the city, it would only be a narrow victory. And what kind of victory was it? It was just a pause. If the two celestial demons returned with a surprise attack, he would probably have no choice but to flee with his men.
At this moment, the protective shield rose again. Mu Zhong, relieved, turned to look at Wei Huan and said, "Luckily you returned in time. The attacks and defenses of the celestial demons were stronger than we expected. We didn't know they had the ability to teleport over long distances. Without you, our losses would have been devastating."
Wei Huan said, "We haven't gathered enough intelligence. We need to be careful, they may strike again."
Mu nodded: "I plan to evacuate this world temporarily, what do you think?"
Wei Huan tapped his fingers silently on the table, and finally looked up and said, "I can't do that. I want to advance to the seventh level."
Mu Zhong could probably guess that Wei Huan would not leave, but he did not expect that he would stay and advance to the seventh level.
"Any idea?"
Wei Huan nodded and told him about what he had gained during this period.
After the tombs were connected and turned into a continent, Wei Huan felt that he had opened the door to advancing to Sequence Seven. However, the area of this continent was far from enough at the moment. He had to obtain more souls to fill the underworld and turn it into filthy soil.
Back in the challenge world, there are no souls to harvest. If he wants to advance, the only way is in the real world.
Especially the demon world, it is simply a "leek" born for him. If he goes back, he doesn't know how long it will take to advance. But now there is an extremely clear path in front of him, and he will never go back no matter what.
Mu Zhong's eyebrows were furrowed in a frown. Just then someone called him. He said to Wei Huan, "Let me think about it. You should take a good rest. There's no rush for this matter. Let's talk about it when we're calm."
Wei Huan nodded and took out an energy tank from the space warehouse to absorb it. However, with his current level of dark power, even with hundreds of energy tanks, he could not recover much. It could only be said that it was better than nothing.
While mechanically absorbing the dark power, Wei Huan reviewed the outcome of the battle in his mind, and in the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.
The base has become much quieter, everyone is busy at their own posts. Many soldiers have been sent back to challenge the world, and the returning chariots have formed a long queue in front of the boundary gate.
There is no news about Xu Qingqiang yet.
No news came back from the people who went to track down the celestial demon.
There was also the uneasiness that the Sky Demon might return, which hung over the base, and the tension could be clearly felt.
The only good news was that Thor brought news that the demon army had started to hunt secretly. The high-level demons were able to hunt food, but the low-level demons were strictly controlled and could not leave the army, so they began to attack their own kind.
At present, this news is not very exciting. The sudden arrival of the celestial demon has disrupted the deployment of the human side. Now that they have decided to evacuate, the benefits of the demons killing each other have been greatly reduced.
"Go on," Wei Huan said, "and be careful. The whereabouts of the two celestial demons are unknown. I remember you saw a third celestial demon, so be careful if it suddenly appears.
Also, if you discover any movement of the Heavenly Demon, tell me immediately that Xu Qingqiang is in danger."
"yes!"
Two hours later, Wei Huan went to see Captain Xue, Fang William, and the injured soldiers. When he came back, he saw that Mu Zhong had finally finished his work and was waiting for him.
"Mu Zhong." Wei Huan stepped forward.
Mu nodded, turned around and walked ahead, "Come."
The two of them walked into the smallest conference room, one in front and one behind. Mu Zhong walked to the table and waited for Wei Huan to close the door. He turned around and hugged Wei Huan.
"What's wrong?" Wei Huan put his arm around his waist.
Mu Zhong shook his head and just hugged Wei Huan for a while before looking up and saying, "You have to stay here. I can't accompany you. Captain Xue is injured, Brother Qiang is missing, and Jacques and Hammer are not back yet. I have to return to Challenge World to take charge of the situation. I really want to stay, but Kritov and my father can't bear this responsibility. I can only..."
Wei Huan's eyes were extremely gentle: "I know, I know everything."
Mu Zhong raised his head, looked at Wei Huan deeply, and kissed Wei Huan lightly on the lips.
He carefully examined every inch of Wei Huan's face and said, "In half an hour at most, we will be evacuating. I will go with them."
"Yeah." Wei Huan continued to nod. He looked at Mu Zhong's lips with lingering satisfaction. He moved his hand around his waist upwards, clasped the man's neck, and deepened the kiss with force.
It had been almost ten days since we last saw each other. It wasn't that either of them couldn't endure ten days, but in a crisis like this, every moment of separation represented a risk.
There is today, but no tomorrow.
Wei Huan kissed him greedily, plundering Mu Zhong's breath and pressing against him hard. For a short moment, he almost lost control.
But in the end, the two had to separate and tried to calm down.
Wei Huan hugged Mu Zhong again and said, "I'll wait until you leave before I go."
Mu nodded: "Don't be too risky. You already know the strength of the three-headed demon. Don't confront them before you are absolutely sure."
"good."
Coming out of the conference room, Commander Fang William, who was sitting at the large conference table in the middle, facing this direction, looked at the two people holding hands and then said, "General Mu, get ready to go."
Mu Zhong tightened his grip on Wei Huan's hand: "So soon?"
Fang William nodded. "The tank has started and will soon be separated from the building." He then stood up and looked at Wei Huan. "I know you want to stay. I sorted out the supplies here and left some for you. I think you can use them."
Mu Zhong said, "I've prepared some too. You can take them as you like. Do you really not need to arrange for someone else?"
Wei Huan said, "No need. Brother Chui and the others have arrived here, so let them go back."
"Okay." Mu nodded. "I'll leave some people behind to split up the group. The main task is to maintain the smooth signal flow here, and also to wait for news from Brother Qiang."
Wei Huan wanted to say something, but found that there seemed to be nothing to say. It was just a separation, not that they would never see each other again. It would be hypocritical to be reluctant to part like this.
"Okay, I'll go out first."
Mu Zhong held Wei Huan's hand tightly, then let go.
Watching Wei Huan's back disappear in the cab, he closed his eyes and opened them again. The reluctance in his eyes disappeared, and he walked towards Fang William with a serious expression.
"Commander Fang, prepare to leave."
The chariot that Mu Zhong was in was the last one to leave. It was Fang William’s level seven chariot.
The chariot passed through the gate, and the base was in a state of desolation. Only a very small number of people were left. They were assigned special tasks. After saying goodbye to Wei Huan, they quickly left the base and disappeared without a trace.
Wei Huan glanced at the base that had lost even its protective shield, and wondered if his tank would have a greater chance of winning the battle if it was here.
It’s a pity that there is no “if”. He must go to the Dark Beast Plane, so he must also go to this seventh-level world.
Wei Huan called out Dian Ma. In its normal form, Dian Ma did not have those spikes on her legs, and her body had turned a light green instead of the original white jade color.
Wei Huan made Dian Ma shrink and float on his shoulder. He cast the "Magic Door" and the next second, he returned to the swamp plain thousands of miles away.
Next, he would catch up with the demon army. Mu Zhong's strategy had caused the demons to fight among themselves, killing over a hundred thousand demons. These were nutrients for the Impure Land, and it would be a pity to waste such free resources.
There is also Broken Mountain, the former headquarters of the pioneering army. There are also 60,000 demons buried there, which are all nutrients for him to become stronger.
Once he absorbs these two batches of energy, the 80 million demon army will become his prey, and he will be followed and hunted down. All this is to make himself stronger.
Maybe the celestial demon would hunt him down, but he was not afraid. He could not kill the celestial demon, and it was impossible for the celestial demon to kill him.
Let this ultimate hunt kick off your gluttonous feast to become stronger!
…
Three months later
A group of millions of demons, mainly high-level demons, are fleeing in the Ten Thousand Mountains of the Monster World.
Wherever they passed, monsters were scared away, chickens and dogs were in chaos, and the mountains were shaking.
Only this wasn't a hunt.
Although the monsters seemed to be chased by demons, and some of the slow ones were caught and eaten, most of them were safe as long as they made more detours or found a cave to hide in until the demons ran past.
Relatively speaking, the demons with stronger overall strength and more ferocious faces seemed more panicked.
While running, they did not forget to look behind them, with terrified eyes, as if a great terror was chasing them.
This is indeed the case.
The monster that had escaped by hiding in a cave, poked its head out of the cave after the demon ran away, and sure enough, it saw the legendary human.
Humans sat on a ghost that looked like a spider or a jellyfish, white with hints of green, and flew overhead.
Flying around him were a large black bird with a body like black smoke and long tail feathers. There was also a dragon-like monster whose body flickered in and out of focus, as if it could perform space escape techniques, and whose every movement caused an electric shock.
Yes, that's right, it's that human.
His appearance means they are safe.
A rumor had been circulating among the monsters since some unknown time: "A demon king descended from another world and took control of the monster world. Human warriors drove him away. Two years later, the demon king returned, and demons are wreaking havoc on the earth. Only human warriors, riding dragons and phoenixes, can defeat him."
How these humans came to be no longer mattered. Did they once dominate the demonic beasts? Were they invaders? In the face of a more hateful and terrifying enemy, it no longer mattered.
The demons feed on monsters.
Wherever they passed, no grass grew, and the monster tribe disappeared by the thousands, leaving no one alive from the old to the young. This crisis, which concerned him, was even more terrifying than the rumor that all the high-level monsters had died in the Holy Mountain two years ago.
Moreover, after the human race occupied the monster world, they only moved around in designated areas. The monsters in the Ten Thousand Mountains remained the same, not suffering from life, and naturally did not care who was the leader.
Now, they were being persecuted by the demons and forced to flee wildly. They even saw with their own eyes that those who ran slowly were devoured by the demons. The bloody scene scared the monsters out of their wits.
The appearance of this powerful human was like a savior, and the monsters themselves didn't know when their worship of this human began.
In short, when the monsters saw the legendary figure really appear before their eyes, they were so excited as if they had seen a savior.
As a strong sense of security descended upon him, some monsters even jumped out and wanted to show him the way.
It would be a great honor to join and become a member of his great undead army!
Wei Huan: “…”
Looking at the monsters that always jumped out in strange ways, chasing him for a while or running for a while as if to lead the way, he went from being confused and wary at the beginning to understanding them now.
In the terror of being hunted by demons, these monsters actually began to be grateful to him, a human who was also an invader.
Not being able to distinguish right from wrong and being swayed by the wind, this is the sorrow of the weak, and it also reflects the limitations of only being able to see a little when looking up from the bottom.
With limited vision, one can only guess, and it is not surprising that one will do stupid things like "taking the thief as the father" because of a narrow mindset.
Wei Huan did not correct or object to this, and of course did not trust it.
Those who are not of my race must have different hearts. He hunted the demons only for the return of the human race and for his own advancement to Sequence Seven. What did the demon beasts have to do with him? What did they think of him have to do with him?
Wei Huan ignored all the monsters that were chasing him to show their goodwill until he caught up with a demon. Without waiting for his orders, Big Head and Sister Crow dodged at the same time.
These two pseudo-god-level undead are powerful enough to instantly kill demons below level seven, and they also have a fast flying speed. He released them to follow him so that he can take action at any time.
The one left behind was only a level five demon. If it weren't for his lack of strength, he wouldn't have been left behind by the fleeing demon army.
Ever since Wei Huan decided to harvest the souls of these demons to nourish the filth three months ago in preparation for his advancement to Sequence Seven, he has been following the demon army like a venomous snake, killing a large number of demons.
Unfortunately, the three-headed demon never showed up from beginning to end. Wei Huan killed all 100 million demons and made them flee, but he did not get any news about Xu Qingqiang.
But he knew that Xu Qingqiang should have gone to the demon world.
Because suddenly one day Wei Huan discovered that the number of demons in the Monster World had increased. Later he learned that these demons seemed to be driven to gather at the entrance on the side of the Demon World, and kept pouring into the Monster World.
Today, the swamp plains in the monster world have been occupied by low-level demons, and they seem to be spreading outward.
Wei Huan disliked that the levels of these demons were too low. It was a waste of time to kill the first and second level demons, so he only focused on hunting down the remnants of the 100 million demon army.
Under his relentless pursuit day and night, apart from the scattered stragglers who had escaped, the team he was currently chasing was the largest and most powerful one among the demon army.
An army led by the remaining two seventh-level demons, with the rest being sixth-level and only a very small number of fifth-level demons, has been continuously hunted by Wei Huan, and its number has been sharply reduced to one million. There are only a few fifth-level demons left.
Wei Huan knew that the time to close the net was finally approaching.
It is not easy to wipe out these millions of demon armies in one fell swoop. They will collapse at the first touch and will not stop fighting at all.
Wei Huan had a big appetite and hoped to "eat" everything in one go, so he followed this group of demon soldiers for more than half a month, setting traps bit by bit, just waiting for this moment today.
