Chapter 556: Demon Maggot King
After the swarms of Demon Maggots were killed and devoured by the Ten Thousand Demon Gu King, the bizarre creatures instantly vanished.
From within the Demon Mountain, piled high with countless skeletons, a terrifying and bizarre ripple of power suddenly emanated.
"No!!"
A look of terror flashed through the eyes of the three Great Spirit Master Level experts from the Liszt Clan as their bodies were instantly torn apart.
The terrifying and bizarre chain of death spread rapidly, and the Warriors of the Liszt Clan began to explode and die, one after another.
"Save me!!"
Ankalei, the Grandmaster-level prodigy from the Liszt Financial Group, let out a wretched scream, his face a mask of despair as his body bizarrely exploded.
Two Spirit Venerable Realm-level powerhouses from the Liszt Financial Group also screamed as their bodies twisted and then burst, scattering into countless pieces on the ground.
"Divine-level Demonic Might!"
Shu Feng’s eyes narrowed. He instantly unleashed a terrifying Spiritual Pressure and a Divine Burst, forming an incredibly powerful Barrier in front of Kapis.
The terrifying Demonic Might slammed into Shu Feng, making his breath catch in his throat and placing him under immense pressure.
Only then did Kapis and Zhu Li manage to survive.
The countless strange skeletons suddenly cracked apart. From within the Mountain of Skeletons, a Demon Maggot King emerged. It had a demonic face, countless bizarre eyes, ten pairs of insect-like wings, and a body ten meters long, covered entirely in strange Curse Seals.
’This behemoth is a Divine-level monster! It’s terrifying!’
The moment Shu Feng saw the Demon Maggot King, alarm bells screamed in his mind. His hair stood on end, and every cell in his body radiated fear. He was even more wary of it than he had been of the Light Flame God.
The Light Flame God was an incomplete, simple-minded Divine Spirit, which was what had given Shu Feng an opportunity to exploit it.
The Demon Maggot King, however, was different. It was a complete and terrifying Divine-level Demon. In a Little World like the Black Tortoise Realm, it could unleash its full power and would have been able to kill the realm’s number one expert, Wei Tuxian, with ease.
The countless eyes on the bizarre Demon Maggot King’s body all swiveled at once, their collective gaze landing on Shu Feng.
A chill instantly shot through Shu Feng. He felt as if the Spiritual Power inside him was flowing in reverse, completely out of his control.
’Light Flame God!’
With a single thought, Shu Feng directly summoned the Light Flame God’s true form.
In an instant, a ten-meter-tall White Jade Holy Tree appeared in the vast plaza, its surface engraved with countless curse seals of light and flame.
The moment the Demon Maggot King saw the White Jade Holy Tree, a flicker of greed flashed in its eyes. With a flap of its wings, it instantly vanished from Shu Feng’s line of sight.
’So fast!’
Shu Feng’s heart went cold. The Demon Maggot King’s speed was terrifying; even someone as powerful as him could barely track its movements.
A branch of the White Jade Holy Tree suddenly lashed out. Shrouded in a terrifying burst of light and flame, it rippled through empty space and knocked the Demon Maggot King out of the void.
A horrific wound appeared on the Demon Maggot King’s abdomen, emitting the stench of seared flesh.
A terrifying shockwave radiated in all directions, sending countless skeletons flying.
The wound on the Demon Maggot King’s abdomen roiled and healed in an instant. It beat its wings, opened its savage mandibles and claws, and lunged at the White Jade Holy Tree.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The White Jade Holy Tree and the Demon Maggot King battled furiously, sending terrifying shockwaves radiating in all directions.
Shu Feng felt dizzy just watching the two terrifying Divine-level beings fight. He could only barely perceive the faintest traces of their battle.
Shu Feng’s eyes narrowed. ’This is bad! This isn’t Blue Star, after all. It’s difficult for the Light Flame God to replenish its Divine Power here. In a battle of attrition, defeat is certain.’
On Blue Star, the Light Flame God could draw upon the Power of Faith from its countless believers and unleash a frenzy of Divine Bursts to defeat the Demon Maggot King.
But here in the Erosion Realm, the distance to Blue Star was too great, resulting in a huge loss of the Power of Faith during transmission. The Light Flame God’s own reserves of Divine Power were also insufficient. If the intense battle dragged on, it would be no match for the Demon Maggot King.
Shu Feng’s eyes turned cold as he commanded, "Hold it down!"
The White Jade Holy Tree immediately began Burning Divine Power. A profound and mysterious curse seal appeared, and beams of white Divine Light instantly shone upon the Demon Maggot King, forming one mysterious shackle after another.
This was Light Lock, a Light Divine Technique—a terrifying Divine Art used specifically to seal and suppress enemies.
Once entangled by the Light Lock, the countless eyes on the Demon Maggot King’s body swiveled. Waves of sinister and bizarre light shot out from them, striking the shackles of light.
Billows of smoke rose as the light shackles rapidly corroded. In a few breaths at most, they would be completely broken.
With a flip of his hand, Shu Feng produced the [Netherworld Illusion Butterfly] and fired a shot at the Demon Maggot King.
A profound and mysterious River of the Underworld materialized, filled with the flickering phantoms of countless dead and dancing Netherworld Illusion Butterflies. The river surged straight for the Demon Maggot King.
A flicker of panic finally appeared in the Demon Maggot King’s countless eyes. Its myriad eyes flashed with a sinister light, forming a multi-layered Barrier that looked as if it were constructed from countless prismatic crystals.
The River of the Underworld slammed into the multi-layered Barrier, and it began to collapse, layer by layer.
In less than an instant, the multi-layered Barrier was pierced through by the River of the Underworld.
The River of the Underworld then crashed into the Demon Maggot King, blasting a horrifyingly large hole through its body.
Gouts of ink-black blood sprayed from the Demon Maggot King’s body. It splattered onto the ground and, like a potent venom, corroded countless holes into the earth.
The Demon Maggot King let out a wretched scream, and a blood-curdling sonic wave instantly radiated in all directions.
Inside the Barrier Shu Feng had erected, Kapis’s face suddenly went pale. Blood trickled from her eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. She collapsed to her knees, her face twisted in pain, and pulled out a bottle of Magic Potion.
The moment Kapis opened the bottle, the Magic Potion within transformed into bizarre maggots that lunged directly at her.
This was the terror of a Divine-level Powerhouse. Before such beings, anyone below the rank of Spirit Saint was nothing more than an ant; they were on a completely different level of existence. Furthermore, their every move could trigger all sorts of bizarre phenomena.
Shu Feng’s face also paled, and a tightness constricted his chest as the Ten Thousand Demon Gu King inside him pulsed with waves of intense fear.
This terrifying, Divine-level Demon, the Demon Maggot King, was the natural enemy of his Ten Thousand Demon Gu King.
