Chapter 337: Onstage
Chapter 337: Onstage
The massive python thrashed wildly, its dark red scales emitting a faint black glow from the cracks.
The purple-golden flames grew more intense.
As it writhed, the earth beneath it turned into scorched land.
The hissing sound echoed incessantly.
As the Demon Emperor of the Thousand Demons Cave, it was well aware of the power of the Dark Tail Spear. At this moment, its robust demonic energy raged, solely to purge the radiant light within its body.
Fortunately, its demonic body was far stronger than Liu Jingyuan's.
With its desperate writhing, the dark red scales slightly opened and closed, and the black glow that had been emanating from them began to show signs of subsiding.
"Hiss!"
The Crimson Heart Serpent Emperor let out a sharp female scream, "Don't think that just because you're holding this spear, you've become it. I'm telling you, you're dead meat!"
What it said wasn't wrong.
Demon Refining Alchemy was just a crude and shallow skill.
No matter how many years Shen Yi relied on Demon Lifespan to refine and simulate, it was impossible for him to truly refine the spear into a part of his body like the Dark Tail Demon Emperor.
That's why he had always used the most brutal stabbing method.
Even when he fought against the Green Plume Serpent Emperor, the Dark Tail Spear sensed danger and automatically released its radiant light to block the green plumes. Shen Yi still couldn't replicate that scenario.
"It really is the Dark Tail Spear."
Tong Xincuan slightly furrowed her brows, a little impressed by the young man's courage.
Not only did he dare to steal the old dragon's tail bone, but he also dared to use it inside the Thousand Demons Cave.
He was truly insane.
"It got the short end of the stick last time, so it will definitely call on other Demon Emperors to join this time."
Yu Chaoyan looked into the distance, a hint of apprehension in his eyes.
Don't be fooled by their arrogance now; this is because the Thousand Demons Cave is a unique force.
Although they appear to be united, they are not particularly friendly to each other in reality. They may even hope for the downfall of stronger Demon Emperors so that they can move up the ranks in better Immortal Mansions.
However, the prerequisite for all this is that it must not affect the Thousand Demons Cave's overwhelming dominance over Wutong Mountain.
If a significant problem arises, the situation will be entirely different.
When thousands of demons gather and emerge, even Wutong Mountain will feel a chill down its spine.
Take the Dark Tail Demon Emperor, for example.
To retrieve its tail bone, it is willing to pay any price, and it's not impossible to ask for the help of several Demon Emperors from the top ten caves.
If faced with such a situation, even if Nie Jun came, he would have to temporarily avoid the confrontation.
"What a powerful family."
Yu Chaoyan couldn't help but secretly criticize himself as he thought of this.
A group of demons with ulterior motives, who even enjoy infighting, yet they can still oppress human cultivators.
They occupy the most fertile land, making others envious but helpless.
Wutong Mountain is their only thorn in the side.
That's why his group of fellow disciples, with their profound cultivation, always tread carefully, fearing that they might truly infuriate the Thousand Demons Cave and bring disaster upon the world.
They sought two allies.
One walked the path of unorthodox cultivation, but their potential was too limited to influence the overall situation.
The other hoped to replace Wutong Mountain and then continue to coexist peacefully with the Thousand Demons Cave.
"Should I help him? After all, he's an ally."
Yu Chaoyan watched as the giant snake was about to suppress the radiant light and spoke casually.
The young man's identity was not much of a secret.
The last time they saw the three-zhang-tall Golden Body Manifestation, there might have been room for speculation, but for a six-zhang-tall dark golden manifestation, aside from Great Qian, no other place could support such cultivation.
"The two you just killed were also your allies."
Tong Xincuan glanced at him indifferently but slowly raised her hand.
Yu Chaoyan raised his eyebrows and sighed, "They say that demons are stupid and foolish, fighting among themselves and content with pleasure. But what's the difference between us?"
"Idiot."
Tong Xincuan let out a cold laugh.
Xuan Guang Cave had bullied Great Qian for so many years, and now they were going to let the Yin Spirit Cultivators off with the standards of a Sage? Forgiving and forgetting past grudges with a smile?
The alliance had long been in name only; this was an undeniable fact.
Fortunately, the senior brothers and sisters were all like dragons, each with the potential to break through and return to the Void. Among them, Xuan Jian and Lingxi were the closest to that level.
The situation wasn't too bad.
"..."
What surprised Tong Xincuan was that Yu Chaoyan didn't argue this time but instead stared blankly at the scene below.
He also looked down.
The Crimson Heart Demon Snake was no longer struggling but had fixed its gaze on the Golden Body Manifestation blocking its path.
Its crimson eyes stared intently.
Jiang Qiulan's body tensed up again. Even with her strong mental fortitude, she couldn't overcome the oppressive pressure of the realm.
This was an instinct engraved in her very bones.
Just then, five dark golden fingers slowly came together, blocking the Demon Snake's gaze from her.
"..."
Jiang Qiulan adjusted her rapid breathing and looked up again, puzzled.
Even if he was Shen Yi's friend, was he being too kind to her? At a time like this, why wasn't he going to help? Could it be that he was afraid of accidentally hurting her?
"Senior..."
Qinghua Consort raised her head and looked indifferently towards the front.
She didn't offer any explanation.
Since her reshaping, this was the first time that her master had chosen to act against a cultivator before dealing with the demons.
The reason for this, she guessed, was that this maiden had been imprisoned.
Recalling the beautiful woman form this Crimson Snake had taken earlier, Qinghua felt a great deal of pressure.
She had to be more sensible.
She couldn't rely on her master to point out everything.
"Huff."
Shen Yi exerted force with his arms, finally driving the entire spear into the snake's head.
He silently looked down.
He raised his hand again and clenched it tightly!
"Cree!"
In an instant, a crimson spiritual bird shadow appeared behind him, its wings spread wide in anger.
The magnificent feathers blossomed with dazzling green light.
Shen Yi punched down with a mighty force.
Dong!
The massive Demon Python had been staring at the Golden Body Manifestation, ready to break through the encirclement.
In the next moment, its enormous head was smashed down, creating a massive gorge in the mountains.
Boom! Shen Yi's fingertip emitted green light, instantly covering the Crimson Snake's body like countless sharp blades piercing its scales.
At the same time, the black light that had been infused into its body finally burst out, unable to be suppressed any longer!
The Crimson Heart Demon Emperor was suddenly punched, and its mind was still in a daze, but it immediately sensed a life-threatening crisis.
It desperately tried to suppress the demonic energy, wanting to subdue the dim light once more.
Unfortunately, the pain of its torn body was like an overwhelming river wave, relentlessly assaulting it.
The entire snake body slowly writhed on the ground until it finally stopped moving, its skin splitting open neatly.
[Killing the Mid-stage Crimson Heart Demon Snake Emperor, total lifespan 83,000 years, remaining lifespan 42,000 years, absorption complete]
"..."
Shen Yi watched as the dim light escaped from the pile of flesh and reached out to grasp it in his palm.
Also at the Mid-stage, this Crimson Heart Snake Emperor from the 23rd cave was much more challenging to kill than the two Xuan Guang Cave cultivators.
It must have been very close to the late stage of Divine Transformation.
The Golden Body Manifestation opened its palm, intending to send Jiang Qiulan over.
However, Shen Yi didn't retract his spear. He remained standing on the snake's head, and his pitch-black eyes slowly looked up towards the sky.
