Chapter 755 - 361: Demon Spider Heaven-Tearing, Celestial Demon Divine Fire

Chapter 755: Chapter 361: Demon Spider Heaven-Tearing, Celestial Demon Divine Fire

At this moment, the Tier Three Grand Array of Fog Valley has already been removed, as even a Tier Three Middle Grade Array couldn’t hold back a Demon Pill Cultivator Demon Cultivator.

There’s no point in wasting resources on meaningless things.

Wen Jiu didn’t respond, only staring intently at the approaching Lord of Celestial Demons. He could sense a True Spirit Demon Tree’s aura emanating from him, unexpectedly powerful.

It was hidden within the Lord of Celestial Demons, like Divine Thunder accumulating within thunderclouds, ready to erupt at any moment.

"But ultimately, considering it is one against two, guarding the mountain’s grand array is reasonable." This is also why Wen Jiu chose to remain and defend the mountain’s grand array. Just now, when he used the Corpse Fate Technique to divinate, he realized that Nangong Huan and the others were still trying to breach the Demon Energy Barrier on the outskirts, which wouldn’t succeed immediately.

"It seems I have to defend for more than half a day."

Wen Jiu then controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to immediately replace Deng Lai, standing at the core position of the grand array’s main formation eye.

Massive corpse energy infused into the mountain grand array, serving as a response to the Demon Cultivators and the Lord of Celestial Demons.

Demon Cultivator Li Lai’s eyes gradually filled with murderous intent, "Since it’s like this, you will be buried in Fog Valley together with them."

With those words spoken.

Demon Energy exploded around Li Lai, transforming into a ten-mile radius of black clouds that enveloped him. Angry demonic sounds echoed through the air as gigantic beast legs resembling spider legs extended out from the demonic energy.

Deng Lai was shocked by this sight and exclaimed, "Demon Spider Heaven-Tearing Technique."

Wen Jiu’s soul memory contained the relevant information about this technique. The Demon Spider Heaven-Tearing Technique was a famous Demon Path Technique from the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, different from the cultivation of Formless Demonic Qi; this technique pursued a path of slaughter, ranking among the top Demon Killing Techniques.

When perfected, it could cultivate hundreds of legs, able to tear even a Body Cultivator of the same realm.

Within the Dark Altar lineage, only one person practiced this technique, named Li Lai. However, this Li Lai apparently hadn’t reached the Realm of Perfection; he had only cultivated seventy-three legs. Not to mention tearing through the shield of the mountain grand array’s main formation eye, even if the East Spring Undying Bone allowed his spider legs to strike, it won’t cause damage anytime soon.

Of course.

For the East Spring Undying Bone, even a Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivator is basically a matter of instant killing.

Late-stage Golden Core Cultivators, whether it’s Lin Yingyun Mountain or Longteng Liyi, would have to avoid confrontation.

If Longteng Liyi didn’t possess the Jinhua Evil-Slaying Divine Thunder, he likely wouldn’t be able to withstand Li Lai.

"Senior, we rely on you." Deng Lai’s voice came again.

Wen Jiu responded with a simple line, "Don’t worry, as long as this old man can still hold, I will definitely protect this main formation eye."

Deng Lai understood the underlying meaning but could only remain silent.

After all, he couldn’t expect the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor to stand and fight if they couldn’t hold.

Helplessly.

He could only silently pray in his heart.

And hope for Nangong Divine General and others to arrive quickly as reinforcement.

The next moment.

Seventy-three spider legs descended like a violent storm upon the main formation eye of Cold Pool Mist Valley, and despite the protective barrier, Deng Lai and the others staggered from the impact. The other cultivators in Fog Valley were shaken, vomiting blood on the spot, their cultivation suffering damage equivalent to losing a decade of effort.

After the impact, the Cold Pond, with the main formation eye barrier’s protection, fared slightly better. Still, as the entire Cold Pool Mist Valley trembled, Lu Xinghe and Feng Jue were horrified, feeling like powerless ants.

The two of them unconsciously moved a few steps closer to the Blood Demon Undying Bone.

Seeing Deng Lai and the others affected, Wen Jiu could only inject more corpse energy into the main formation eye to withstand further impacts.

When the impacts grew weaker, but the demon cultivators’ attacks became fiercer, Deng Lai and the others were startled, quickly returning to their previous positions and collectively expressing gratitude toward the East Spring Undying Bone with a fist salute.

Wen Jiu remained unresponsive.

Simultaneously pretending not to see.

For if he truly had to expose his real strength, he would unhesitatingly control the East Spring Undying Bone to leave Cold Pool Mist Valley. Even if Deng Lai and others perished at the main formation eye, he wouldn’t hesitate.

Exposing strength prematurely would prompt the Dark Altar lineage to take extra precautions, turning fortune into misfortune, which is not worth the risk.

Of course.

If it’s only Li Lai and the Lord of Celestial Demons attacking, they are insufficient to force the East Spring Undying Bone to reveal its strength.

"Let’s strike together and swiftly resolve this matter." Realizing he couldn’t shake the main formation eye in Fog Valley quickly, Li Lai called to the Lord of Celestial Demons behind him without hesitation, "The quicker we resolve it, the better for you."

"I hope you’ll keep your promises, otherwise, I wouldn’t hesitate to perish with you," the Lord of Celestial Demons spoke coldly, unfolding eight wings as scarlet demonic energy suffused.

Li Lai chuckled indifferently, "Stop talking about promises, let’s get it done first. Remember, you have no second choice, just like the Spirit Suppressing Army. Life or death, it’s all about your value."

"I will present the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor’s head!" The Lord of Celestial Demons responded resolutely, the scarlet demonic energy spreading towards Fog Valley like tidal waves, swiftly enveloping the entire Cold Pool Mist Valley.

In the next moment.

Wen Jiu sensed a faint trace of Acquired Divine Techniques demonic power emerging from the scarlet demonic energy.

This realization left Wen Jiu startled.

No wonder the Lord of Celestial Demons could occupy the core of the Celestial Yin Mountain Range, without interference from the Domain Lord’s Mansion.

A Tier Three Upper Realm Great Demon cultivating Acquired Divine Techniques probably ranks as the top amongst Late-stage Golden Core cultivators. Looking across West Mountain Floating Domain, perhaps only the Domain Lord could defeat him.

"Releasing Divine Techniques right from the start shows great urgency." From their dialogue snippets, Wen Jiu deduced some insights and wasn’t surprised. After all, even with the East Spring Undying Bone reaching the Upper Realm, Zhongji remains only Zhongji.

Without the Lord of Celestial Demons possessing Absolute Spirit Corpse Qi, divining his future with the Corpse Fate Technique would likely reveal a disastrous fate directly.

"For safety’s sake, perhaps after this, the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor’s identity can be discarded."

Wen Jiu made a silent decision.

In the next moment.

The red demonic energy enveloping Cold Pool Mist Valley transformed into a raging sea of fire with the Lord of Celestial Demons’ furious roar. Fiery flames rose fiercely, rapidly spreading to cover a hundred-mile radius, including Cold Pool Mist Valley.

The Yin Spirit Qi beneath Cold Pool Mist Valley also ignited, dissipating visibly.

"Celestial Demon Divine Fire, once ignited, can never be extinguished. It will peak as the Lord of Celestial Demons falls, unleashing the Divine Celestial Demon Fire Lotus capable of wounding Golden Core Perfection cultivators... Lu Family Corpse Ancestor, let’s see how long you can endure!" The Lord of Celestial Demons’ voice fell coldly.

Li Lai rejoiced, his spider legs striking down more frenetically, forming an attacking force from above and below along with the raging flames.

Facing such a ferocious attack, Deng Lai and others have exhausted all their Spirit Stones, injecting them into the main formation eye, hoping to endure for as long as possible. Meanwhile, Wen Jiu found it somewhat amusing.

"The Lord of Celestial Demons probably worried I would strike first, hence acted as a warning." Regarding Celestial Demon Divine Fire, Wen Jiu’s soul memory contained almost no related information, only that it could refine Late-stage Golden Core Body Cultivators, with Tier Three High-grade Spiritual Artifacts equally unable to withstand it. This partly explains why the West Mountain Floating Domain Lord’s Mansion ignored its occupation of the Celestial Yin Mountain Range.

Yet fortunately, ordinary Golden Core cultivators may not perceive this. However, East Spring Undying Bone’s Divine Sense can keenly detect many things.

For example—the faint Divine Power within Celestial Demon Divine Fire gathering, accumulating like Divine Thunder in thunderclouds.

Once it fully forms, it will erupt!

This eruption may be the Divine Celestial Demon Fire Lotus that the Lord of Celestial Demons mentioned. Without the enhanced Divine Sense of East Spring Undying Bone, it might have gone unnoticed.

When that Divine Celestial Demon Fire Lotus fully forms, East Spring Undying Bone might have to reveal its true strength.

"It seems that without exposing my power, keeping this array intact is no simple task." Wen Jiu hesitated about taking action. During his indecision, Wen Jiu controlled the Three Thousand Blood Inks to use Corpse Fate Technique for divination.

The result showed Nangong Huan and the others had yet to enter the Celestial Yin Mountain Range.
