Chapter 35 Quickly Transmigrate! Conquer the Handsome Demon King (41)
Liang Xu did not answer. His face became paler than before. He slowly drew out the magic sword, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at the lump of flesh.
The piece of meat seemed to sense the threat. It squirmed faster and its tentacles extended longer, attacking us like countless poisonous snakes.
Liang Xu swung the magic sword and cut off the tentacles one by one, but they quickly grew back as if endless.
I realized that normal attacks would have no effect on it.
"We have to find a way to destroy its core." Liang Xu said in a deep voice.
I nodded, closed my eyes, and concentrated on feeling the fluctuations of spiritual energy around me.
I discovered that the spiritual energy fluctuations of that piece of meat were very chaotic, but there was one point that was particularly strong, which should be its core.
I opened my eyes, pointed to the center of the meat and said, "There!"
Liang Xu immediately understood what I meant. The magic sword in his hand condensed into a ball of black demonic energy and stabbed fiercely in the direction I pointed.
The piece of meat let out a shrill scream and its tentacles waved wildly, but Liang Xu's magic sword had already pierced into its core.
The piece of meat trembled violently, then slowly shrank and shrivelled, and finally turned into a pool of black liquid, emitting a nauseating fishy smell.
We finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the lockdown of the laboratory remains in place.
Liang Xu walked to the metal door and carefully observed the patterns on it with a frown.
"This is a special seal," he said solemnly, "It requires a specific combination of spiritual and magical power to break."
I immediately understood what he meant. We must perfectly combine our respective strengths to open this door.
But this requires extremely high coordination and precise control, and any carelessness will result in failure.
We tried again and again, but always failed.
As time passed, our physical and spiritual strength were rapidly depleted, and our hope gradually became slim.
Just when we were about to despair, I suddenly felt that Liang Xu's spiritual power resonated with me.
I immediately seized upon this feeling and synchronized my spiritual power with his. Our powers merged perfectly together to form a powerful wave of energy.
The metal door made a dull sound and slowly opened.
We looked at each other and saw the joy of surviving the disaster in each other's eyes.
However, before we had time to celebrate, an even stronger demonic force surged in from outside the door and surrounded us in an instant.
This power is completely different from the previous demonized creatures. It is colder and more evil, as if it came from the depths of hell.
"This..." Liang Xu's expression suddenly changed, his eyes filled with shock, "This is..."
Before he could finish, a huge black claw reached in from the door and grabbed his shoulder.
The giant black claw seemed to come from the ancient abyss, carrying a suffocating breath of decay, and it clamped Liang Xu's shoulder tightly.
I watched his expression change drastically, from shock to pain, and finally to a look of despair.
His lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he only spat out a mouthful of black blood.
"Liang Xu!" I swung my sword at the giant claw. The sword tip collided with the hard black scales, making a harsh friction sound, but only leaving a shallow white mark.
The giant claws didn't move, but tightened instead. I heard the sound of bones breaking. Liang Xu groaned and almost fainted.
"Let him go!" I roared, my spiritual power surged wildly, and the sword emitted a dazzling light.
I swung the sword again, and this time, the sword energy was as strong as a rainbow, and with the momentum of burning my boats, I chopped it hard on the giant claw.
The giant claws finally loosened, Liang Xu fell down powerlessly, and I hurried to support him.
Outside the door, that powerful demonic force was surging and roaring, as if mocking my arrogance.
We looked at each other and understood that we had to leave here, otherwise there would be only one way out.
We stumbled away, the demonic force behind us chasing us relentlessly, like a hound from hell, greedily chasing its prey.
We escaped through the metal door and entered a deep passage.
The walls on both sides of the passage are engraved with strange runes, exuding a disturbing aura.
"We must find a way to stop the demonization." Liang Xu said weakly, his voice was hoarse and carried a hint of despair, "Otherwise the entire demon world, and even the entire cultivation world, will fall."
I looked ahead at the direction where the demonic power was spreading, knowing full well that it was fraught with danger. But in order to stop the spread of the demonic power, we resolutely stepped into the demonic forest.
I gripped the sword tightly in my hand, my eyes firm. This was a battle of life and death, and we had no way out.
Liang Xu secretly activated his magic power, and the air was filled with a tense pre-war atmosphere.
As soon as we entered the demonized forest, we were attacked by a group of demonized wild wolves.
The wolves had red eyes that emitted a bloodthirsty glow. They kept growling and swooped towards us.
We stood back to back, resisting the wolves' crazy attack, and the dangerous atmosphere was spreading.
"Be careful!" Liang Xu suddenly pushed me away, and a huge wild wolf missed and hit the tree trunk hard.
I steadied myself and noticed that Liang Xu's face had become even paler. His injuries were more serious than I had imagined.
"Liang Xu..."
"Don't worry about me," he interrupted me, "first find ..."
Before he could finish his words, the wild wolves around him suddenly stopped attacking. They retreated one after another, making low whimpering sounds, as if they were afraid of something.
My heart was filled with anxiety and an ominous premonition came over me.
I followed the wolf's gaze and saw a tall figure slowly walking out from the depths of the forest...
"It's him..." Liang Xu's voice trembled with a hint of disbelief.
The wolves' retreat was not out of kindness, but out of fear.
I clearly felt that their fear did not come from Liang Xu and me, but from the figure slowly approaching from the depths of the forest.
I held my breath, gripped the sword tightly, and spiritual power surged wildly in my body.
"It's him..." Liang Xu's voice trembled slightly, with an unbelievable fear.
He had never behaved so badly before, which made me even more alert.
I observed the wolves carefully. Although they retreated, they did not disperse. Instead, they surrounded us, forming a circle, as if they were waiting for something.
My psychic perception began to take effect, and I tried to find the weakest point in the encirclement.
Soon, I discovered that the flow of spiritual power in a certain direction of the wild wolf pack was slightly slow, and that direction was exactly the opposite direction from which the tall figure was coming.
"Liang Xu!" I whispered, "Their defense is the weakest in that direction."
Liang Xu immediately understood what I meant. He concentrated his magic power in his palm, and black demonic energy began to surge.
"Are you ready?" he asked in a low voice, with a hint of determination in his tone.
"I am always ready," I answered, and the sword in my hand made a low sound, as if responding to my determination.
We attacked simultaneously.
My body was as fast as lightning and my sword energy was as powerful as a rainbow, pointing directly at the wolf pack's weak points.
Liang Xu waved his hand, and the black magic power rushed towards the same direction like a roaring angry dragon.
“Ah——”
