Chapter 302 Primordial Demon vs. Heavenly Spider
In the sky, the final wave of lightning was quietly brewing, like an invisible giant hand, ready to strike suddenly at the crucial moment.
The crowd felt the oppressive force descending from the sky, as if enormous mountains were pressing down on their hearts, making it hard to breathe. A chill ran through them, and they all unconsciously retreated.
Suddenly, a loud crack shattered the silence, and lightning struck down as predicted, aimed directly at Feng Yue.
Without the slightest hesitation, Yu Qianling rushed forward, raised her magic weapon, and shielded him from the attack of the heavenly lightning.
"Third Senior Sister!" Feng Yue cried out anxiously upon seeing Yu Qianling approaching, his eyes reddening. "Go quickly, don't worry about me!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Yu Qianling gritted her teeth and said, "Hold your breath and concentrate, break through quickly. If you fail, see how I deal with you!"
After hearing this, Feng Yue obediently closed his eyes and focused on the final breakthrough.
Seeing that Feng Yue was about to break through, Lu Chen's eyes were filled with resentment. He gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, channeled his spiritual power, and was about to unleash a blade of light at Feng Yue.
However, at that moment, Cen Feng, who was already on guard, flashed out and kicked him away.
Cen Feng looked at the person rolling on the ground and said through gritted teeth in a cold voice, "You're asking for death!"
The murderous intent emanating from him made those behind him who were about to attack show fear.
When Yu Xuan saw Cen Feng approaching with an icy expression, he knew that Cen Feng had murderous intent. So he flashed forward, grabbed Lu Chen, and kicked him several meters away.
Cen Feng knew exactly what he meant and understood his difficulties as the eldest disciple of Xuanwu Palace. He stepped forward and snorted coldly, "Brother-in-law, keep your people in check, or you might not be able to enter Peach Blossom Valley in the future."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xuan chuckled softly, "Don't worry, I can handle it."
"You're pretty savvy." Cen Feng smiled, then turned and left.
As the two spoke in hushed tones, the heavenly lightning gradually disappeared, signifying that Feng Yue had successfully overcome his tribulation.
Yu Qianling was overjoyed. Looking at Feng Yue, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, she realized that he had already succeeded and was just waiting for him to reach the final stage of becoming a Nascent Soul.
"Phew, mission accomplished!"
She let out a long sigh of relief and was about to stride away when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a cold, sharp light coming from the corner of her eye.
The appearance of this light made her heart skip a beat. She immediately summoned her weapon—the Phoenix Scale Spear—and charged forward without hesitation, successfully blocking a rapidly flying arrow.
"Who?!" Yu Qianling shouted coldly. She stared at the distant direction with cold eyes, just about to go forward to investigate, when a piercing roar of a beast suddenly came to her ears.
She looked up and saw that the white jade blood bat that had disappeared before had actually reappeared.
Yu Qianling immediately realized who the hidden person on the other side was.
However, the Dark Bat King was coming with overwhelming force, and she could only stay by Feng Yue's side and wait for him to condense his Nascent Soul before making any further moves.
As the Bat King appeared, the other hiding Blood Bat offspring also emerged, chirping and squeaking. They charged towards the group in swarms, their eyes filled with ferocity and madness, as if they wanted to tear them to pieces.
"Ah! Don't come any closer!"
"Damn, how come these bats have reappeared!"
"Cen Feng, where are your puppets? Summon them quickly to defend against the enemy!"
"Yes, protect us!"
Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted, and everyone echoed him, running towards Peach Blossom Valley.
Cen Feng opened a defensive array box, letting the people from Peach Blossom Valley in, and sneered, "I can't protect you. You'd better save yourselves!"
"What are you doing?!" A male cultivator's voice suddenly rang out, his face filled with anger.
Cen Feng glanced at the person who spoke and chuckled, "Look at the question you asked, as if you weren't the one who wanted to betray me just now."
The male cultivator, his face flushed red with embarrassment and anger, could only glare at him before awkwardly leading the people behind him away.
At this moment, the Blood Bat King flapped its wings and glared at Yu Qianling below, making her laugh. "Hey, little bat, don't think you're the only one who can glare."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Qianling's expression hardened, and he leaped up using his movement technique, instantly unleashing a strange eye technique.
In an instant, the Blood Bat King's movements slowed down, and Yu Qianling stepped forward and gave it a good beating. Crimson blood splattered everywhere, and the mournful roars of the beast were endless.
The Demon Lord stared at Yu Qianling in the air, his eyes filled with surprise and admiration. "Hey, your senior sister is pretty fierce."
He had barely finished speaking when he suddenly felt a murderous intent approaching. Before he could react, two golden vines shot out from the ground like lightning, instantly piercing Feng Yue's chest and abdomen.
Immediately afterwards, red vines appeared like mad snakes, tightly wrapping around Feng Yue's body, as if to devour him whole.
"Feng Yue!" Qing Yu's heart ached at the sight. He swung his sword and slashed a flying bat in half, then immediately rushed towards Feng Yue.
"Don't come any closer!"
Blood trickled from the corner of Feng Yue's mouth. He gripped the two exceptionally tough golden vines tightly and shouted hoarsely, "Its target is me! Get out of here!"
At this moment, the two golden vines invaded his sea of consciousness, like evil creatures, trying to snatch his newly formed nascent soul.
Seeing this, the Demon Lord protected his heart meridian while attacking the golden vines that were binding the nascent soul within his sea of consciousness, and said urgently, "Boy, this should be the Nascent Soul Snatching Technique. These vines are controlled by a powerful expert!"
“Snatching the Nascent Soul…” Veins bulged on Feng Yue’s forehead. He discovered that the golden vines were indeed absorbing his newly formed Nascent Soul.
Not far away, Qing Yu heard Feng Yue's painful growl. He could no longer care about anything else and frantically slashed at the vines with his sword, but unexpectedly, he was tightly entangled by the vines.
"Qing Yu!" Feng Yue was even more anxious when he saw this. He struggled frantically, but he was tightly bound and could not move at all. Helpless, he could only ask the Demon Lord for help.
"Senior, please save him!"
"No!" The Demon Lord protected Feng Yue's heart meridian and said with a troubled expression, "It's not that I'm abandoning you to die, but if you die, I'll have to die with you!"
Yu Qianling, who was engaged in fierce aerial combat, saw this scene and realized it was a diversionary tactic. She was about to turn around to save Feng Yue when a stray arrow blocked her path.
The Blood Demon Bat King went berserk and charged forward again, desperately trying to hold back Yu Qianling's steps.
As time went by, Qingyu, who was being strangled, gradually lost her fighting ability and was in imminent danger.
"Qing Yu!" Feng Yue's eyes turned bloodshot upon seeing this.
Suddenly, a crack opened in his sea of consciousness, and a powerful force surged out, forcefully expelling the golden, malevolent vines and the Demon Lord from his sea of consciousness.
"???" The Demon Lord, who had been blasted out of his body, was filled with confusion as he looked at Feng Yue's sudden outburst and murmured, "Such terrifying power..."
His body was shrouded in demonic energy, and a strange fire mark appeared on his forehead, which contrasted with his crimson eyes, making him look both handsome and sinister.
With a flash of black shadow, his demonic energy transformed into a sharp blade, instantly severing the vines binding Qing Yu's body. He then caught him and landed on the ground.
Once Qingyu could breathe again, she caught off guard and met a pair of bloodshot eyes. She instinctively struggled to escape, but his arms tightly encircled her waist.
"Feng Yue?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Yue did not answer him. A strange and complex look flashed in his slightly indifferent crimson eyes. He pushed Qing Yu away from his arms, turned around and glanced at the Demon Lord, and said in a deep voice, "Take good care of him, or I will not spare you."
"???!" The Demon Lord was completely bewildered and it took him a long time to come to his senses.
He stared at Feng Yue, who was soaring into the air, and felt that the mark on his forehead looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment. Suddenly, a mural flashed through his mind, and his face instantly turned ugly.
"Damn! Isn't that the mark of the First Demon?!"
The Demon Lord stared at Feng Yue in the sky, his face filled with disbelief. "Could it be... that this kid is actually the reincarnation of the Primordial Demon?"
The First Demon was a powerful figure who opened up the Western Demon Abyss and was a god revered by all demon cultivators. It is said that he mysteriously disappeared without a trace after the great war in the lower realm ten thousand years ago.
Some say he attained enlightenment through demonic means and has become an unparalleled demon god. Others say he has already perished and entered the cycle of reincarnation.
However, judging from the situation, the Demon Lord felt that the latter was more likely, and that the First Demon had obviously entered the cycle of reincarnation.
The Feng Yue before him was clearly the vessel for his reincarnation.
"Damn, so... that weird demon-sealing seal wasn't meant to seal me, but to seal him?!"
The Demon Lord was even more perplexed. He couldn't recall the missing part of his memory at all, and had no idea who had sealed him away, let alone that he had been sealed together with the Primordial Demon.
He looked at Feng Yue in the sky and couldn't help but shiver.
Over the years, he's tormented Feng Yue quite a bit; what if he really does fully awaken...?
"Damn it... Is it too late to admit our mistake now?"
With a deafening roar, the earth shook violently. Feng Yue's demonic energy blade cleaved the ground, unearthing the golden vines hidden underground, and with a mighty pull, he yanked them out.
"Come out!" As soon as Feng Yue finished speaking, rubble collapsed from the cracked ground, pulling out a huge spider monster.
Its body was entirely gold and red, and its eight spider legs were covered with golden vines, just like the one that attacked Feng Yue.
besides.
Its hard back was covered with crimson vines, making it look strangely out of place.
Seeing its appearance, everyone naturally knew that the strange vines that attacked them were probably its doing, and they all kept their distance from it with apprehension.
"What on earth is this thing?"
"I've never seen it before... I don't think I've seen it in any books either."
"This is fucking huge! How long has it lived?!"
Yu Xuan frowned and said, "This looks like a Royal Vine Heavenly Spider."
"What is that?" Shi Yi asked, puzzled.
Yu Xuan explained, "It is said to be one of the divine beasts from beyond the realm, which became extinct ten thousand years ago. I never expected that there would still be one here."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huan exclaimed in astonishment, "Such an evil thing is actually a divine beast?"
"No matter how malevolent it is, it's not as malevolent as your Feng Yue right now." Shi Li looked at Feng Yue, who was soaring into the air and exuding a chilling demonic aura, and asked curiously, "Just who is he?"
"Huh? How would I know?" Xiao Huan said, looking completely bewildered.
Shi Li looked incredulous and pursed his lips, saying, "How many people are there in your Peach Blossom Valley? You don't even know about him?"
Xiao Huan shrugged and smiled, "I'm just a salted fish, the kind that's been turned over and dried in the sun, it's normal that I don't know."
