Chapter 260: Chapter 257 Shadow Demon Snake Chapter 260: Chapter 257 Shadow Demon Snake Escape!

Hurry and escape!

Dark Flame Demon God’s heart was filled with terror.

He felt the weakness and powerlessness within his body, and after being severely injured by the opponent’s enormous turtle monster, he saw the majestic stream of water, controlled by the monster, rushing towards him again.

Without a second thought, he stimulated all the magic power he could muster within his body, and like a meteor engulfed in raging demonic flames, he swiftly and cleanly fled towards the distance.

If he didn’t escape now, given his current condition, he would be torn to pieces by that fierce giant turtle in no time.

Dark Flame Demon God made a very crisp escape, and Gui Ling Ancestor, caught off guard, found it hard to stop him.

…

After all, this was a powerful Demon God with great speed.

If he truly decided to escape, it really was difficult to stop.

Besides, another Nega Demon God was swinging two heavy chain maces at him.

This Demon God possessed immense strength and formidable attack power, and was not to be underestimated.

Even so, Gui Ling Ancestor’s face showed a bit of embarrassment.

He had been famous for a long time and valued his reputation.

Perhaps, aside from some special beings, the vast majority of cultivators who had become immortals also cherished their reputations greatly.

Now, after the opponent’s strength was greatly reduced by a curse and that guy had managed to escape, especially being the first Demon God to flee the scene, it made him quite displeased.

Just then, as Nega Demon God’s attack came, it ignited a spark of anger in his heart.

Annoyed, Gui Ling Ancestor decided to vent his anger on this fatty.

Although Nega Demon God’s body was fat as a meat mountain, in front of the massive body of the dragon turtle, his so-called meat mountain was just like a round meatball, hardly worth mentioning.

Thus, the dragon turtle first swung its huge tail, the massive hammerheads on the tip of the tail directly smashing into Nega Demon God, causing his whole body of fat to tremble violently.

Then, without waiting for him to react, the dragon turtle’s massive body violently charged at him, pressing Nega Demon God’s body harshly against a nearby giant-sized molten rock giant. Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Boom!

A loud noise erupted, the meatball…

no, the meat mountain that was Nega Demon God and the molten rock giant were both sent flying.

Following that, the dragon turtle opened its mouth, and a stream of heavy water, like a long river, swept over, enveloping Nega Demon God and the molten rock giant within, a vortex of water rising and firmly trapping the two of them inside.

The Supreme Elder from the Beast Taming Sect who was originally fighting the molten rock giant saw this and merely smiled faintly, letting Gui Ling Ancestor deal with the molten rock giant while he chose other opponents.

The strength of the molten rock giant was still quite formidable; not only was it incredibly strong, and its flame magic powerful, but more crucially, its body was practically undying.

Even if it was severely wounded multiple times, as long as molten rock flowed inside it, it could completely heal its injuries.

As such a troublesome opponent, any cultivator of the same realm would find it a headache.

Since Gui Ling Ancestor had already intervened, it was best to leave it to Gui Ling Ancestor to handle.

Water and fire are fundamentally incompatible; to overcome fire with water is an established principle.

Although his Daoist divine powers were profound, they lacked the means to control the Molten Rock Giant.

The Dragon Turtle’s Primordial Heavy Water was incredibly powerful, perfectly suited to deal with the Molten Rock Giant.

In the flow of the water, the Nega Demon God and the Molten Rock Giant were tightly pressed together, the billions of pounds in weight making them feel as if they were about to be crushed to dust.

If it were merely the weight, that would have been bearable, for they were, after all, demon gods, able to withstand it; but the key was that the Primordial Heavy Water was infinitely powerful, perfectly countering the Molten Rock Giant.

If it had not been for its application of the Fire Principle to resist, the flames on its body would probably have been extinguished already.

Even so, it was in a pitiable state, grievously hurt by the heavily crushing and cold air of Primordial Heavy Water, struggling with all its might to push out its flame power to prevent its entire body from being extinguished by the True Water—otherwise, it would have been utterly destroyed.

The Nega Demon God had an even more tragic fate.

Gui Ling Ancestor was inherently skilled in divination and adept at scheming.

He had battled Nega Demon God for a long time and had already thoroughly understood the demon god’s abilities, knowing that its approach was close combat with immense physical strength and high defensive capabilities.

His own body, through a special kind of pulsation, could almost completely ignore physical attacks and could also resist most magical attacks unless trapped and slowly refined with True Fire; otherwise, it was difficult to deal severe damage.

Even though Gui Ling Ancestor did not cultivate the Fire Dao and had no True Fire to use, as a cunning and calculating being, he had ways of leveraging external forces.

Thus, he used the Primordial Heavy Water to bind the Nega Demon God and the Molten Rock Giant together, taking advantage of the Molten Rock Giant’s resistance to the Primordial Heavy Water, which ignited flames to burn the Nega Demon God.

To counter the might of the Primordial Heavy Water, the Molten Rock Giant had to exert its utmost Fire Principle to resist, and as a result, the Nega Demon God, trapped alongside it, could only suffer the burns of the giant’s flames.

Under normal circumstances, the Nega Demon God would not care about being struck by the flames of a fire giant, but since it could not move or divert the force, it was immediately burned badly, screaming in pain, and the parts of its body that touched the Molten Rock Giant directly emitted wafts of burnt flesh.

Both demon gods, unwilling to remain trapped, struggled desperately to escape the restraint of the Primordial Heavy Water, but behind Gui Ling Ancestor emerged the phantom of a turtle shell, from which golden divine runes continuously surfaced, turning into chains of divine runes that bound them together while they were suppressed by the Primordial Heavy Water.

Under the joint forces of Gui Ling Ancestor and the massive Dragon Turtle, they simply could not escape.

…

Qin Feng quickly shifted his focus elsewhere.

Although he was curious about where the lion-bodied scorpion-tailed demon beast had gone, he was on an extremely chaotic battlefield where danger could arise at any moment; he had to concentrate fully on any potential crisis.

Otherwise, a moment of negligence could lead to a successful sneak attack by the Demon Clan, which would be a loss beyond compare.

The Demon Clan was not without individuals skilled in sneak attacks—quite the contrary.

Whether it was some techniques from the Demon Clan mages, some particularly unusual members of the Demon Clan, or even demon beasts, any of them could launch a surprise attack.

In fact, Qin Feng had seen more than once how spiritual beasts and sect disciples had fallen prey to these assailants.

Although those who sneak-attacked them were quickly slain by the Golden Core Cultivators patrolling the battlefield, it still resulted in significant losses for the sect.

Just like a Demon Clan mage, guarded by a dozen Demon Clan Warriors within a building not far away, who had released a sinister Demon Snake.

It had already secretly attacked six spiritual beasts and two Beast Taming Sect disciples.

The Demon Snake, pitch-black, possessed the ability to transform into a shadow.

Once it hid within shadows, it could conceal its form—whether it was the shadow of a building, a tree, or a body of a spiritual beast or cultivator, it could meld into them, making it hard for anyone to detect its presence.

Then, as the spiritual beast or cultivator defended against attacks, it would suddenly surge forth to launch a sneak attack, injecting its body’s poison into its victim, and even dragging the attacked individual into the shadows to conceal and hide them, its methods of concealment and escape truly exquisite.

Also, due to its outstanding concealment methods, the Golden Core Cultivator who was circling around in low altitude searching for strong opponents did not detect its trace since the battlefield was too chaotic, filled with slaughter and combat and various spell powers continuously spreading out, which made it easy to overlook some minor fluctuations in the shadows.

Qin Feng discovered the Shadow Demon Snake not because his Divine Sense was particularly strong or sharp, but because the Demon Snake had targeted him.

Or rather, it was the Demon Clan Mage controlling the Shadow Demon Snake who had targeted him because Qin Feng’s earlier performance was too conspicuous.

Alone with a spear, he slaughtered many members of the Demon Clan, whether they were powerful warriors or mages controlling magic power, as well as civilian demons in the city, nearly everyone who encountered him failed to escape.

Moreover, he had a powerful Fire Ape by his side, recklessly charging and destroying buildings, bursting demons left and right—such a conspicuous presence was difficult not to attract the attention of nearby demons.

As for the Swallowing Sky Toad, it went unnoticed due to its tiny size and the fact that Qin Feng intentionally concealed its powers, only allowing it to sneak attack at critical moments, so ordinary demons didn’t notice the little toad hopping behind Qin Feng.

However, Qin Feng’s achievements were enough to attract the nearby demons’ attention, so the Demon Clan Mage marked Qin Feng as a target for a secret ambush.

The Demon Clan Mage first sent a series of fireballs to catch Qin Feng’s attention.

While Qin Feng was defending against the magic, the Shadow Demon Snake hidden in his shadow suddenly sprang out and viciously bit towards his neck.

Fortunately, after his accomplishments in Body Refinement, Qin Feng had sharp senses.

Sensing something wrong behind him, he swiftly sidestepped to avoid a fatal blow to his neck, and was only bitten on the shoulder.

Otherwise, even with his Azure Dragon Daoist Body already cultivated to the Small Success Realm, he might not have been able to withstand the sharp fangs of the Demon Snake.

But being bitten on the shoulder was not a cause for concern.

It should be noted that he was wearing a Magic Robe specially prepared for True Disciples by the Sect, with extremely strong defense, and underneath the robe, he wore a set of soft armor given by his master, Ning Wuxu, for self-defense.

Not to mention a mid-level Demon Beast like the Shadow Demon Snake that specialized in sneak attacks, even a beast a level higher couldn’t break through his dual-layer defense.

Despite that, Qin Feng was still shocked by the sudden ambush.

Indeed, the path of cultivation was fraught with dangers.

Had he not dodged in time, there was indeed a possibility he could have been successfully ambushed.

But now, since the Shadow Demon Snake had slithered out of his shadow and revealed itself, it was no longer on its home ground.

After the recent slaughter, Qin Feng’s killing intent was at its peak.

With a fierce laugh, he reached out and grabbed the head of the Shadow Demon Snake that was biting his robe and spewing poison, gently shook it after grabbing its vital spot, and immediately dislodged the body that was wrapped around him.

He was, after all, a True Disciple of the Spiritual Snake Lineage and was extremely knowledgeable about various types of Spiritual Snakes.

Even though he had never encountered this type of Shadow Demon Snake before, the structure of snake bodies was mostly similar, so once he grasped the snake’s vital spot and shook it with enough force in a specific way, he could make this two-zhang-long Shadow Demon Snake go limp all over, rendering it powerless.

Of course, if his strength were insufficient, he would definitely face a counterattack from the Demon Snake.

As Qin Feng’s killing intent surged, he was just about to rip the snake’s head off when he suddenly saw a section of its body that had been in his shadow disappear, causing him to pause.

He then felt a great joy, immediately abandoning the plan to kill the snake outright.

He even gently stroked the neck of the Shadow Demon Snake, verifying that he hadn’t torn it apart, which relieved him.

He then directly sent the snake into the Demon Refining Pot.

During the Outer Sect’s great tournament, he had seen fellow Sect Disciples skilled in the art of concealment.

Unfortunately, he had never found a Spiritual Snake suitable for this.

Now that he had arrived in the Otherworld and encountered a Demon Snake capable of Shadow Transformation Divine Power, he certainly couldn’t let it slip away and naturally wanted to integrate this capability into his Ruyi Golden Snake.

Even though the cultivation methods of the demon snakes in this otherworld differed from those of the Demon Clan in the Biluo Great World, and their abilities were not called Divine Skills, it didn’t matter; they were all a form of innate talent that could be integrated nonetheless.

After Qin Feng had taken the Shadow Demon Snake into the Demon Refining Pot, a Demon Clan Mage not far away was momentarily stunned.

He had not sensed the death of his demon pet nor noticed its invisibility, but it had disappeared into thin air.

This puzzled him, but he soon knew it must have been the mischief of that young Human Clan man, so he roared loudly, ordering the few warriors guarding him to charge out of the building.

He felt that if he could just kill this Human Clan youth, his demon pet would return.

Now, the situation on the battlefield was extremely unfavorable for them; the Dark Flame Demon God had not returned, and he was worried that if things continued this way, the city would completely fall.

He thought about fleeing, but with enemies and monsters everywhere in the city, it was impossible for him to break out.

So, the Mage hoped that when there was no other choice, the Shadow Demon Snake could take him and hide in a secret place.

As long as the Shadow Demon Snake wrapped around him and used the Shadow Transformation Power, it could help him fool others’ eyes and enable him to escape this disaster and find an opportunity to flee in the future.

Therefore, the Demon Clan Mage must rescue his demon pet at any cost; otherwise, he would certainly die.

Qin Feng sneered coldly and didn’t wait for those Demon Clan Warriors to get close; he waved his hand and released the Soul Devouring Vine Demon.

Previously, because the Soul Devouring Vine Demon moved slowly, he had not released it, but now it was useful against opponents hiding in buildings.

This was the Soul Devouring Vine Demon’s first battle, and it wanted to perform well.

So, as soon as it appeared, it immediately stretched out its vines and bound the several Demon Clan Warriors.

These warriors were not weak, but they were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of this vine demon, so they were overwhelmed and were quickly trapped by the vines.

Then, the Soul Devouring Vine Demon instinctively stabbed its spikes and mouthpieces into the Demon Clan’s bodies, meaning to kill them.

But immediately after, it felt the vigorous Qi Blood Power within the bodies of these warriors.

Then, its whole body quivered excitedly.

These Soul Devouring Vine Demons were originally transformed from Bloodthirsty Vines, inherently craving energy and blood, and had never had the opportunity to feed on blood before; after all, the creatures that roamed the Ten Thousand Demons Cave Heaven were either spiritual beasts fostered by the Sects or disciples of the Beast Taming Sect—they dared not act recklessly.

But now, these few individuals it had ensnared were enemies, and its master’s order was to kill them, so the Soul Devouring Vine Demon had no reservations and began to feed on the blood within these Demon Clan warriors’ bodies.

Initially, the Demon Clan Warriors struggled, but they were firmly bound by the vines and could not escape; being drained of blood by the Soul Devouring Vine Demon, they were turned into dried-up corpses in just a short time.

After feeding on the blood, the Soul Devouring Vine Demon’s whole body trembled, its vines and leaves faintly tinged with dark red.

This was a sign that the blood in its body had not yet been digested.

Tasting the sweetness of blood, the Soul Devouring Vine Demon did not wait for its master’s command and proactively extended its vines towards that building, intending to drain all the enemies inside as well.
