Chapter 559: Damn it! Damn it!
Chapter 559: Damn it! Damn it!
Despite his intense hatred for Chu Ning, the Three-Handed Demon did not attack at this moment.
Instead, he rushed straight towards the severed hand below.
However, at this moment, the two Starfeather Sect cultivators had already reacted.
Seizing the opportunity, Dan Tianqi flashed and blocked the Three-Handed Demon.
Not only did he wield the silver feather fan in his hand, releasing a fierce gust of wind blade attack, but he also continuously formed hand seals, and star rays emerged from his hands.
Then, a giant hand seal formed in the air and attacked the Three-Handed Demon.
Its power was no less than the attack of the silver fan's wind blade.
At this moment, Tong Zhanghong tried to retrieve his silver feather fan.
But unexpectedly, the third hand of the Three-Handed Demon was exceptionally powerful.
Even though it was already severed, the half-hand tightly gripped the silver feather fan, preventing Tong Zhanghong from retrieving it.
Chu Ning's Crimson Spirit Sword carried the fan and plunged into the mountain below.
Then, the sword's immense power dragged them directly into the ground.
However, it was evident that the silver feather fan was not Tong Zhanghong's only offensive magic treasure.
Tong Zhanghong opened his mouth and spat out, and a golden ring appeared in his hand.
In the next moment, the ring attacked, and its power was equally astonishing.
Facing the interception of two Late-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators, even the Three-Handed Demon's figure paused.
His palms continuously struck out, and purple-black demon palms emerged, directly blocking the attacks of the two Starfeather Sect cultivators.
As the three of them fought, Chu Ning hurriedly descended below, following the crimson spirit sword into the mountain.
He disappeared without a trace.
It seemed as if he was chasing after the spirit sword magic treasure.
This didn't concern the three cultivators who were currently engaged in a fierce battle.
The Three-Handed Demon was determined to shake off the two Starfeather Sect cultivators and retrieve his severed hand.
As for the two Starfeather Sect cultivators, they vaguely guessed something and launched an extremely fierce offensive, trying their best to stop the demon.
Although the Three-Handed Demon possessed exceptional strength, it was no longer the Mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator strength that the black-robed Great Han had displayed earlier.
However, Dan Tianqi and Tong Zhanghong were both well-known Late-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators.
Especially after Chu Ning had escaped right under their noses, and knowing that this was an Outer Plane Demonic Beast, they had no intention of underestimating it.
At this moment, Dan Tianqi handed the silver feather fan to Tong Zhanghong and continuously attacked with the Star Palm Seal.
Initially, the Three-Handed Demon didn't pay much attention, but after being struck by the palm seal unintentionally, his face showed surprise.
"Star Power! I didn't expect that after not dealing with Nascent Soul Cultivators for many years, you have actually mastered the secret technique of borrowing the power of the stars!"
A hint of surprise flashed in the Three-Handed Demon's eyes, and his face became more serious.
Apparently, the star power also had a certain effect on him.
Dan Tianqi regained his senses and continuously attacked with the secret technique.
At the same time, he opened his mouth and spat out, and a long sword with sparkling starlight appeared in his hand.
As he waved his hand, it was like a meteor streaking across the sky.
Tong Zhanghong, holding the silver feather fan he had obtained from Dan Tianqi, continuously waved it.
Unlike the wind blade attack he had used earlier, he now unleashed crescent-shaped silver moons.
These silver moons also contained star power, just like the secret technique and sword beams that Dan Tianqi had unleashed.
The Three-Handed Demon immediately felt a greater pressure than before.
He swung his fists and continuously countered the attacks.
But more often, he relied on his superior dodging technique to evade their attacks.
His response was clearly less composed than before.
At this moment, Dan Tianqi and Tong Zhanghong vaguely realized that the person they were looking for was not a companion of this Outer Plane Demonic Beast.
After all, regardless of cultivation methods, although the person was much stronger than ordinary cultivators, he was still a human cultivator.
He had no connection with the Outer Plane Demonic Beast in front of them.
But after fighting for so long, they were unwilling to stop.
Especially Tong Zhanghong, whose silver feather fan magic treasure was still grasped by the demon's severed hand.
"Hey, where's that cultivator from earlier?"
Thinking of his silver feather fan, Tong Zhanghong suddenly remembered.
The cultivator holding the crimson spirit sword had burrowed into the ground for a long time and hadn't come out.
Moreover, when he casually scanned with his divine sense, he couldn't sense the person's presence.
Tong Zhanghong immediately transmitted a sound to Dan Tianqi:
"Bad news, that person might have escaped with my Star Feather Fan."
Upon hearing this, Dan Tianqi's movements paused.
The Star Feather Fan was one of the Star Feather Sect's most precious treasures, and losing it was no small matter.
His pause allowed the Three-Handed Demon to retreat dozens of zhang away.
The demon glanced into the distance and then looked at the two Late-stage Nascent Soul Grandmasters of the Starfeather Sect.
"Today, I'm in a hurry to find that guy to avenge my companion. I won't bother with you for now, but next time, I'll definitely let you two experience my true power!"
As he spoke, the demon flew away to one side.
Dan Tianqi and Tong Zhanghong exchanged glances, and Tong Zhanghong immediately transmitted his voice:
"Follow him! Although we can't sense the presence of that cultivator with our divine sense,
he took this demon's severed hand, and this demon might be able to sense his location."
"By following him, we might be able to find that guy."
As he spoke, Tong Zhanghong's words were laced with a hint of gritted teeth.
During this period, his actions had been met with repeated setbacks.
Recently, he had been carelessly injured by a Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, who then managed to escape.
And now, against an Outer Plane Demonic Beast that appeared to be at the Mid-stage Nascent Soul, even with the combined efforts of two people, they were unable to capture it.
What's more, they had lost the Starfeather Sect's most precious treasure, the Starglow Fan.
If he couldn't retrieve this treasure, Tong Zhanghong would be unable to rest easy.
The Outer Plane Demonic Beast glanced at Tong Zhanghong and Dan Tianqi as they pursued, letting out a light hum.
However, it didn't pay them any heed.
Its figure flickered continuously, and with the aid of the Teleportation Technique, it flew towards the distant horizon.
Just as Tong Zhanghong had said, he could sense the presence of his severed hand.
In fact, he had already discovered Chu Ning's departure earlier.
It was just that he had been attacked by two Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, and he couldn't pursue them in time.
In a short time, he had already sensed that Chu Ning had teleported away and was now hundreds of miles away.
Moreover, at this moment, his speed was no slower than the demon's.
The Outer Plane Demonic Beast could sense Chu Ning.
Chu Ning could also sense the pursuit of this demon.
"Before, this demon could pursue me from Unity City because I didn't use the Divine Prohibition Technique.
Now that I'm using it, he can still keep up. Could it be that this demon can not only recognize my Illusionary Technique but also break through the Divine Prohibition Technique?"
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Chu Ning's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Although he had taken the opportunity to create a distance of several hundred miles between them, continuously using the Ethereal Escape technique still couldn't increase the gap.
If this dragged on, he feared that his Essence Energy would be exhausted, and the demon would catch up.
After this thought, Chu Ning had a vague sense that something was amiss.
The reason the Illusionary Technique was seen through was that this technique was something he had cultivated himself.
But the Divine Prohibition Technique was a secret technique rewarded by the system, so logically, the Outer Plane Demonic Beast shouldn't have been able to discover it.
At this moment, Chu Ning's gaze fell on the severed hand he was holding, which still grasped two items—the Seven Spirit Drill and Tong Zhanghong's silver feather fan.
Earlier, Chu Ning had tried to take these two treasures from the severed hand but had failed.
He had also considered putting the severed hand and the two treasures into his Spirit Bag together, but that hadn't worked either.
Previously, Chu Ning had thought it was because the demonic aura of the severed hand was too strong.
But now, after careful consideration, he felt it wasn't the case.
"The Spirit Bag can't hold living things, and it's very likely that this demonic hand represents vitality in some way.
Perhaps that's why the Three-Handed Demon was able to lock onto my position."
With this in mind, Chu Ning subconsciously wanted to discard the demonic hand.
Although the treasures held by the demonic hand had a certain allure for Chu Ning, his life was obviously more important.
However, just as he was about to throw it away, Chu Ning's heart suddenly stirred.
He reached into his Spirit Bag and took out the Demon Shadow Spear.
"The demonic pearl on this Demon Shadow Spear is extremely effective at absorbing demonic energy. Initially, I used this pearl to absorb all the demonic energy from the abyss in the Longming Sect.
If I use this treasure, perhaps I can eliminate the demonic energy within this hand."
With this thought, Chu Ning quickly infused his magical power into the Demon Shadow Spear.
After all, he didn't need to activate the spear, so he didn't have to consume all his power.
When the Demon Shadow Spear flashed with dark light, Chu Ning held the spear and thrust it directly into the severed hand.
Immediately, Chu Ning saw a wisp of demonic energy winding up the spear and entering the demonic pearl above.
At the same time, the demonic hand visibly shrank before their eyes.
Finally, it gradually vanished into nothingness.
The entire hand, transformed into demonic energy, was absorbed by the Demon Shadow Spear.
This scene was very similar to when the demonic pearl had formed in the underground cave of the Yunqi Mountain.
As the demonic hand disappeared, Chu Ning grabbed the Seven Spirit Drill and the silver feather fan, quickly stuffing them into his Spirit Bag.
The next moment, Chu Ning changed direction and quickly teleported away.
"Not good, I can't sense the direction of the severed hand anymore.
How could he destroy the true demonic energy attached to it?"
Three hundred miles away, the Three-Handed Demon's face first flashed with surprise.
Then, after carefully sensing and confirming his judgment, the demon let out a strange roar.
"Chu, you dare to destroy my demonic body!
Damn it! Damn it!!!"
As he roared, the Three-Handed Demon rushed forward.
When he reached the spot where Chu Ning had destroyed the demonic hand, he found nothing.
Without the demonic hand, he could no longer sense Chu Ning's current location.
Turning his head, he looked at Tong Zhanghong and Dan Tianqi, who were pursuing him, their bodies surrounded by surging demonic energy.
"You human cultivators, you all deserve to die!!!"
Accompanied by a loud roar, the demonic energy on the Three-Handed Demon seemed to condense into a demonic flame.
With a wave, streams of demonic flames attacked the two Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators from the Starfeather Sect.
Then, a fierce battle ensued.
It wasn't until half a day later that the situation finally calmed down.
Chu Ning, of course, had no chance to witness this dog-eat-dog scene.
It wasn't until a month later that Chu Ning heard some news about this incident.
