Chapter 117 The Saliva of the Green Devil
Ah Chen and his companions found the lair of a powerful demon, but the demon had already moved away due to the erosion caused by the gray mist.
They tried to extract some useful information from this yellow little devil, but she could only scream and was completely unable to communicate.
Ah Chen and the other two were still young, and they couldn't quite accept the idea of directly devouring their enemies.
However, considering the ever-present gray fog, they had to harden their hearts, for mercy to the enemy was cruelty to their own family.
“Ah Chen, you devised the whole capture plan, so why don’t you absorb her spiritual power first?” Meng Hanhai said.
Looking at the demon with a living, breathing human face before him, Ah Chen ultimately couldn't bring himself to do it.
Finally, Nie Xiaoxiao decisively said, "Since neither of us can bring ourselves to do it, let's just let my Xianxian have it."
Xianxian, who had been itching to act, immediately extended countless sharp spikes upon hearing this and pierced the body of the little demon.
She screamed and her body transformed into seaweed, but this time, because three vital parts of her body were trapped by the iron wire vines, she was not enveloped in yellow light.
Just a few minutes later, her body, which resembled fresh seaweed, withered away, her facial features disappeared, and her entire body became a dried, yellowish-brown seaweed.
The three of them were dumbfounded by what they saw.
After draining her dry, Xianxian suddenly let out a shriek.
Its shriek was directed at the gray fog ahead. With its shriek, the gray fog dispersed, revealing a clean area about ten feet in diameter.
This discovery greatly excited the three of them.
It turns out that absorbing the spiritual power of the Demon Clan also allows one to inherit some of their special abilities.
At the same time, Xianxian gave Nie Xiaoxiao even more exciting information: it had advanced, breaking through from the fourth rank to the fifth rank.
Advancing spiritual plants is more difficult than advancing spiritual beasts, because once plants gain sentience and can cultivate, their lifespan is far longer than that of spiritual beasts.
For them to advance, in addition to accumulating enough spiritual power, they also need some kind of opportunity, but they themselves don't know what that opportunity is.
Because of Xianxian's advancement, Achen had a guess: these little demons were very likely some kind of plant that had awakened its intelligence, or perhaps like Ni Zhiyong's snake-head vine, they were a symbiotic organism of plants and animals.
Regardless of which category they belong to, they all have at least a plant-like aspect.
Since they are plants, they inevitably have their own weaknesses, such as a fear of extreme cold and heat, limited range and speed of movement, and even the possibility of being afraid of certain pests...
Of course, all of this is just his speculation and remains to be confirmed.
But one thing is certain: they greatly help in upgrading the level of spiritual plants.
When the three teenagers discovered the plant-like nature of the Fairy Clan, the torment they felt from being tormented by their sense of morality lessened somewhat.
The psychological burden of sucking dry a seaweed is much lighter than sucking dry a human-shaped creature.
Although thinking this way is a bit unfair to those spiritual plants that have made contracts with humans, the prevailing worldview over the millennia is that eating vegetables is normal.
However, this lowest-level yellow fairy served as a warning to everyone: the so-called fairy cannot transform in front of children under the age of sixteen, and therefore does not exist.
If they encounter the Purple Devil later, they will have no choice but to flee for their lives.
The good thing is that the Lizard King Long Batian came along this time. Achen had made an agreement with him beforehand that they would not need his help as long as they could manage.
If it really comes down to a life-or-death situation, then ask him for help.
However, seeing Xianxian advance after absorbing a yellow demon, Long Batian felt itchy to do the same. He felt that his own opportunity to advance lay with the demon race.
Having learned from their first experience, Ah Chen and his two companions began to choose areas with denser gray fog to proceed.
The gray fog is the birthplace of the Fine Demons and the means by which they survive.
After passing through several thick layers of gray fog, they encountered a slender figure again.
This time, they had no more doubts and directly determined that the other party was a member of the Fine Demon Clan.
Before the demons could get close, they launched a ranged attack.
Achen unleashed his Spirit Net, and before her master could give the order, Xianxian unleashed her Immortal Thorn.
After advancing, the strength and density of the cactus spikes it emits are both improved.
Even a sixth-tier lizard king would find such an attack quite troublesome.
Before the demons in the thick fog could even transform, they were met with a fierce and relentless attack.
A green light instantly shone from his body. Based on their previous experience, Ah Chen and the others initially determined that this was a green miniature demon.
With their level increased by one, all three of them looked solemn. It had taken the three of them working together to subdue that yellow little demon before.
This one is a level higher. With their abilities, can they really fight against it?
The moment the green light shone, Achen felt a needle-like pain as his consciousness was being devoured.
After his first attack, Meng Hanhai unleashed his strongest move – the Thirty-Six Constellations Sword Formation.
This is a sword formation created by a senior sword cultivator based on the arrangement of the thirty-six constellations in the sky.
To the untrained eye, it appears as a continuous stream of sword light. In reality, this sword formation is condensed from the sword intent itself, with each element interlocking and constantly shifting, leaving the target no chance to breathe and no way to evade.
Meng Hanhai truly lived up to his reputation as the top fighter in the beginner class of Shifang Academy. His Thirty-Six Constellations Sword Formation move even impressed Senior Xiao Shi, who couldn't help but exclaim, "Wonderful!"
With his powerful sword intent joining in, the green light could no longer be distracted by dealing with A-Chen.
Furthermore, as the fairy's immortal thorns rained down, the green light began to flicker slightly, like some kind of transmitter with unstable signal transmission.
This time, Achen stopped defending and instead drew talismans in the air, unleashing an enhanced version of the area-of-effect talisman, Snow Elf.
All three used their strongest area-of-effect spells, and the green light gradually couldn't hold on any longer, eventually losing its invincibility and revealing its slender true form.
This is a slender man, about 1.6 meters tall, similar to the previous woman, with an anime-like face, big eyes, and a pointed chin.
The difference is that his facial features have a slightly more resolute look.
The moment he lost his invincibility, Ah Chen and the other two threw out ropes, tied him up, and dragged him in front of them.
This green slender demon, its eyes filled with anger and terror, did not scream like the previous one, but instead sprayed a large cloud of green slime at them.
Fortunately, Ah Chen had been keeping the three of them wrapped in a matryoshka doll-shaped talisman array. This blob of green slime acted like strong acid, quickly corroding through seven of the nine layers of the matryoshka doll-shaped talisman array.
All three of them couldn't help but feel a chill of fear. If it weren't for this nine-layered nesting doll talisman array, they probably would have been killed by this spit.
Ah Chen thought: Is this the legendary case of drowning someone in spit?
The green sludge demon never expected that his green slime sneak attack would fail. Just as he was about to take another bite, Nie Xiaoxiao threw a thunderstorm fruit that Fairy Fairy had grown into his mouth.
With a loud bang, the green demon's mouth was blown to pieces, leaving it a bloody mess. Its face contorted in pain and rage, but it was no longer able to spit.
