Chapter 61: The Envoy of the Demon Realm

  I retreated a few steps, observing their battle while analyzing the structure of this Wanmo Juyang formation to find its weakness and break through. The small golden one in the middle offered to help me, but I refused. What a joke, if the carefree god can't even break an array, how can I still mix in the divine realm after it gets out?

  When dealing with monsters, human firearms can't cause much harm. To harm monsters, one must use the magical tools of a cultivator.

  Only to see Dongfang Cloud, who didn't know whether he was being reckless or showing off his skills, rush forward to approach the monster first. Meanwhile, Dongfang Xue and their other companions drew out their own magical tools - a total of four long swords and one single-edged sword. Seeing his sister and companions draw their weapons, Dongfang Cloud also summoned his own long sword.

  Dongfang Xue and her six companions apparently mastered a certain formation's coordination, the seven people were in a previous three-back-four formation, advancing forward.

  That silkworm-like mass of flesh seemed to sense the danger as well, and it began to twist frantically, while the chunks of flesh on the ground accelerated their speed towards its body.

  Dongfang Xue and the others knew they couldn't let it continue to recover, so several of them shouted loudly and charged at the meatball monster from multiple directions. Dongfang Yun was at the back, with her hands clasped together in front of her chest, emitting a faint white glow, as if preparing for a special attack.

  And I watched with great interest as they fought against the monster, Dongfang Xue and the other six seemed to be using the same technique, he felt a completely identical power fluctuation from them.

  Dongfang Xue and the other six people did not engage in a fierce battle with the monster, but instead surrounded it and made sudden attacks, striking it with their swords. The monster's movements were not very agile, and it would occasionally spray a mouthful of dark green mist, but Dongfang Yun and the others dodged each attack.

  Look at the monster's physique and its thick layer of flesh, I estimate that even if we continue to attack it like this for several more hours, there's no way we can kill it. At most, we'll just be able to inflict a few more wounds on it. Moreover, within the Wanmo Juyang Array, the monster can recover from its injuries at any time.

  "Get out of the way..." Dongfang Xue suddenly shouted loudly, completely without the elegance that a woman should have. She began to chant and launched a flying sword attack at the meatball monster. Her two hands hung down by her sides, from her wrists to her palms, were completely enveloped in a pale white glow. The flying sword flashed with a burst of white light and flew out.

  Dongfang Yun and others dispersed in a very tacit understanding, making way for one road.

  That meatball monster seemed to have suffered from this move, seeing the flying sword fly over, twisting its body to dodge this blow, but was always forced back by one or two flashing cold light swords, anxious and screaming.

  Before that monster could turn around, the flying sword had already flown to its front, and the long sword with a pale white glow heavily stabbed into its body.

  The supermarket fell silent for a moment, and after Dongfang Xue hit her target, the pale white glow on her hand had already disappeared. She didn't hesitate and immediately hid to one side.

  After a long time, the monster suddenly let out an ear-shattering roar. A rickety shelf collapsed with a loud crash in the midst of this astonishing bellow. Everyone's ears were also pierced with pain and they involuntarily retreated several steps, but I alone remained calm and watched that struggling creature in agony.

  A burst of white light suddenly erupted from the monster's body, and then the white glow grew stronger. It was only then that everyone saw clearly that it wasn't a white light, but an ice block reflecting the light.

  The ice blocks grew more and more, although the monster let out a painful screech, struggling to twist its fat body, but the ice blocks still expanded at an extremely fast speed, and in the blink of an eye, they had already wrapped up half of the monster's body.

  "Ice Seal Technique, I didn't expect him to be learning Ice Seal Technique." I said with a slight smile.

  I remember seeing it in Grandfather's Jade Strip that Bing Feng Jue is the proud method of Xuan Bing San Ren, a loose cultivator in the Xiuzhen world.

  However, what I see now is that Dongfang Xue's Bingyin (Ice Seal) seems to be incomplete or has some other problem.

  Dongfang Xue has had several hundred years of cultivation, and in my understanding, when using Bing Feng Jue, it shouldn't be necessary to accumulate energy for so long like just now. Moreover, with several hundred years of cultivation, the power of Bing Feng Jue should be much greater than what was used earlier.

  After much thought, I couldn't figure it out, and all I can understand is that after Xuan Bing San Ren ascended to the Immortal Realm, he didn't leave behind a complete Ice Seal Decision incantation.

  But what I didn't know was that my guess wasn't far from the truth. Before Xuan Bing San Ren ascended, he left behind a complete heart mantra, but after several wars in the Xiuzhen realm, his later generations inevitably suffered casualties, resulting in many missing heart mantras. Moreover, Dongfang Xue was not a descendant of Xuan Bing San Ren, so the elder who taught her the Ice Seal Technique was restricted by the sect's rules and only passed on the introductory heart mantra to her, which is why she had such a hard time using it.

  A burst of cheers came from the side, and that meatball monster had been completely wrapped in ice. From a distance, it looked like a giant crystal iceberg, wrapping up a worm-like monster, which was incredibly eerie.

  "Come, take a photo with me, and I'll be able to show it off later." The crowd saw that the monster had been sealed in the ice and couldn't help but feel relieved. Another woman in the group ran to the side of the ice block and said with a smile. But I was thinking, do people in the Cultivation Realm also know how to take photos?

  "Haha, it's not like we don't know that all relevant data needs to be destroyed to avoid causing panic. In the end, we still have to hand it over, and besides, this is so ugly, be careful or you'll get caught by people thinking you're a monster!" Dongfang Yun teased her.

  The woman was quite straightforward and immediately retorted with a curse, the few of them burst out laughing together, obviously they had a good relationship.

  Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but sigh at the emotions between the siblings, and my heart was also slightly delighted. Just as I was about to unravel the Wanmo Juyang Formation, I saw a crack suddenly appear on the ice block that sealed the monster, and the crack grew bigger and bigger.

  "Get out of there..." I hastily shouted to the woman standing next to the ice block, and in my anxiety, the Wu Wei Xin Fa was inadvertently activated, a simple defensive shield had already been added to that woman. The woman heard my shout and hesitated for a moment, after all, she was also an experienced person, and without asking more questions, she rolled away from the ice block.

  Boom... The ice block suddenly burst in the loud noise, a tentacle as thick as a human waist, heavily struck where she was standing just now.

  Look at the power of this blow. If she hadn't rolled away in time, I estimate that even with my defensive spell array supporting her, it would have been either death or injury.

  The woman stood up with a lingering fear, and Dongfang Xue and others had already swarmed up to block her behind. She turned pale and looked back at the monster that broke through the ice, nodding gratefully at me, thanking him for saving her life.

  I didn't bother with her, at this moment I was frowning and sizing up the monster that had broken out of the ice. The monster's appearance was already slightly different from before it was frozen, its body shape was about one circle smaller than before, six whip-like tentacles as thick as a human waist were dancing in the air.

  "Goodness, how did it change again." Dongfang Yun muttered to himself, taking a deep breath. Since he and his sister arrived in the mortal realm, they had eliminated no small number of demonic tribes, but this was the first time he had seen one that could change like this.

  Before I could respond, the crowd suddenly let out another cry of surprise. It turned out that Dongfang Xue had suddenly and silently commanded her flying sword to launch another attack. Just then, one of the monster's tentacles flashed out like lightning, its speed almost as fast as a thunderbolt.

  Everyone only saw a black shadow flashing through the air, and the flying sword had already flown out from above everyone's heads with a loud crash. Dongfang Xue spat out a mouthful of blood, and it was only after a long time that they heard the sound of the flying sword hitting the ground in the distance.

  Everyone was shocked and rushed forward to help him up. Fortunately, Dongfang Xue only suffered from the backlash of the flying sword, and apart from spitting out a mouthful of blood, he was fine, and everyone finally put their minds at ease.

  I beckoned with my hand, and Dongfang Xue's flying sword suddenly flew in from afar with a whooshing sound, landing in my hand.

  Look at me revealing this move, everyone rushed to look at my hand, only to see that Dongfang Xue's flying sword was already covered in scars, apparently the flying sword had just protected its master by putting itself in harm's way. It seems that this flying sword has gained sentience.

  Seeing that monster's one blow had such power, everyone couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

  I furrowed my brow, thought for a moment, and was also shocked to the core. Before that monster was frozen in ice, it didn't have any power at all, its only attack seemed to be spraying out green mist, why did it become so ferocious after breaking out of the ice, not only did its body shape change greatly, but even its physical attacks became so fierce.

  "You all retreat, I'll deal with it." I slowly raised my head and instructed the others.

  Dongfang Xue knew of my strength and hastily stood up to order his companions to retreat.

  I slightly hesitated, activated the Wu Wei Heart Method, stretched out my right hand index finger, and a faint golden light flickered at the tip.

  A group of people stretched their necks, waiting to see what kind of trick this Eastern Snow would use to deal with the monster in front of them.

  I didn't hesitate either, my index finger made a few vague motions in the air before withdrawing back, and then I stood still with my hands clasped behind me.

  "What's going on here?" Dongfang Yun stood there, looking disappointed at the monster in front of him who didn't react at all: "Playing tricks on kids?"

  Everyone was shocked, and Dongfang Xue was no exception.

  A faint rustling sound suddenly echoed through the air, as if someone had torn open a thin sheet of paper. The meat-like monster suddenly stopped moving. Immediately after, a fine line appeared on its body, and under the gaze of several pairs of staring, round eyes, the large meat-like monster split in two, slowly collapsing to the ground. An unknown green liquid gushed out like a fountain, instantly dyeing the surrounding area a deep green, filling the air with a nauseating stench.

  Dongfang Xue and the others only then realized that my earlier void slash had unknowingly cut the monster in front of us into two segments. Thinking about how such a massive and terrifying monster was so easily sliced in two, everyone's scalp felt numb, especially Dongfang Xue who had initially looked down on me, fearing that I might do the same to him someday, leaving him without a complete corpse.

  "It's still amazing how easily you solved it." Dongfang Xue was also secretly shocked, but he was more familiar with me, so he was the first to regain his composure. Seeing that the atmosphere had become somewhat heavy, he hastily laughed and said...

  "It's not that simple." Unexpectedly, I stared at the monster and said lightly, "You see for yourself!"

  Everyone's gaze turned towards the monster, and Dongfang Xue almost cried out in surprise.

  The monster's bisected body was writhing restlessly, trying to get closer. In this short period of time, many parts of the two separated bodies had already merged together, and at first glance, it seemed like a complete and intact monster again.

  "What...what's going on here?!" Dongfang Yun stared with his eyes wide open, pointing at the monster and shouting, while several people behind him also looked like they didn't dare to believe it.

  "How am I supposed to know?!" I replied coldly to Dongfang Yun's inquiry.

  He stretched out his right hand and with a swift motion of his index finger, the monster's body which was about to close up was suddenly split into four pieces. However, very quickly, he saw those four lumps of flesh rapidly crawling back together, even faster than before.

  "Interesting, getting stronger the more you fight? I'd like to see how effective my divine fire is on you!" At this time, a cold smile spread across the corner of my mouth. A monster with such tenacious vitality, it was the first time I had seen one. Adding to that, the fact that my previous two attacks were ineffective made me somewhat angry. Thinking about the divine beasts I faced in the Blood Hell...

  At this time, I converted my life's yuanqi into the power of fire. My hands clasped together in front of my chest, slowly opened up, and with my movements, a small jumping flame gradually appeared between my two hands. The flames grew larger and larger, and when my hands were as wide apart as my shoulders, the flames had already grown to be about the size of an infant's head.

  Dongfang Snow gazed blankly at the black flame between Chu Bai's hands, its temperature unimaginably high. Yet strangely, she didn't feel a hint of scorching heat despite being close to me, as if it were just an illusion.

  I let out a loud whoop, and my palms suddenly flipped over, with the centers of my hands facing that constantly squirming monster. The flames between my hands seemed to receive an order, silently and quietly shooting towards the monster.

  The monster seemed to sense danger and suddenly let out a harsh roar, spewing a cloud of black air from its mouth.

  The woman I just saved suddenly let out a low cry of surprise, her face pale as she covered her mouth with her hand.

  It was only then that the crowd noticed that what the monster had spewed out was not black air, but a huge black skull; upon closer inspection, the gigantic black skull was composed of countless tiny human heads, each no larger than a small fingernail.

  Those tiny human heads that make up the skull seem to be alive, big and small human heads are stacked together, biting and tearing each other apart, one head bites off the ear of another head next to it, but soon its own nose is bitten off by another head.

  Everyone present was a sharp-eyed person, and naturally they saw those miserable scenes before their eyes, and couldn't help but turn pale and almost vomit.

  "What's a magical device?" I stared for a while and said, even more curious about this strange creature in front of me.

  I can naturally see that this monster has at most the cultivation of the Lingji period, but the skull it spits out is clearly a magical artifact. A magical artifact is equivalent to a top-level artifact in the Xiu Zhen world, and whether it's the Xiu Zhen world or the Mo Jie, at least the cultivation of the infant period is required to use it. Even if you use your precious blood to barely control it, you need to have at least the late Lingji period cultivation. However, this monster in front of me has obviously overturned this common sense.

  The black divine fire, driven by my thoughts, collided head-on with the skull spewed out by the monster. There was no earth-shattering sound, nor was there a dazzling display of colors. All that remained was a pungent stench and the sizzling sound of the flames as they scorched the skull.

  The divine flame is the highest level of flame between heaven and earth, except for the chaotic fire, and it is also the nemesis of magical creatures. The skull collided with my divine flame and only lasted for a dozen seconds before declaring defeat, disappearing under my divine flame. Due to the magic tool and its master being connected by divine thought, the destruction of the skull magic tool seems to have dealt a significant blow to the monster as well.

  I smiled slightly and was about to push the divine fire towards that monster to thoroughly refine it when I heard a urgent voice shouting: "Sir, please spare your hand!"

  I was stunned for a moment, and the voice sounded somewhat familiar, but I couldn't think of whose voice it was for a while. My heart moved, and I stretched out my hand to beckon, stopping the advance of the divine fire, letting it hover beside the strange creature.

  Two clusters of black air suddenly appeared in front of me not far away, and he finally realized that the voice was familiar, it turned out to be the voice of that demon messenger. Thinking that I still owed her a personal favor, I reached out my hand to recall that cluster of divine fire and retrieve it into my body.

  The black fog gradually dispersed, revealing the figures of two people. After seeing the appearance of the newcomer, I was also stunned for a moment. Emerging from the black fog were two figures: one was the familiar messenger from the demon realm, still shrouded in the same dark mist as before; and the other was somewhat unexpected.

  Another figure emerged, clad in a black robe that enveloped his entire body. His face was shrouded in darkness, as if the black robe concealed a dark space beneath. In his right hand, he grasped an enormous scythe with a curved and razor-sharp blade that glinted with a cold, icy light, as if proclaiming its power to the world. What struck me was that this person's aura was identical to the one I had sensed on Wang Chao's body last time.

  This person is actually an envoy of the Demon Realm, and also an envoy of the Demon God Chi You.
