Chapter 650 - 432: Consecutive Slaying of Demon Saints
Wei Fan displayed entry-level saber techniques, shocking all the Saint Realm powerhouses present. Especially a few Demon Saints, the more extraordinary Wei Fan was, the more determined they were to kill him.
"Kill!"
Wei Fan merged with the Supreme Blade Dao, emitting an aura of obliteration akin to a Sword God, slashing out with a dazzling blade light that illuminated the Void World. The Four Symbols Divine Beasts let out a great roar.
The Golden Lion King was greatly shocked. His previous severed arm had not yet reattached, and another slash came. Who could withstand this?
The attacks fused with the Dao do not only harm the flesh; they cut through everything, even the origin and primordial spirit, with the supreme intent of obliteration.
"Boom!"
He let out an angry roar, his own Dao manifesting above his head, frantically absorbing Dao Power. A massive fist seal appeared, but it was useless, directly shattered by a single slash. The terrifying sword aura continued to slash downwards, leaving a wound with rolling flesh on his chest, impossible to block or evade.
"Damn it!"
The Golden Lion King was finally somewhat anxious. Originally, as a Demon Saint, his Qi Blood was abundant, and his body was far stronger than the Human Race Martial Saint. The best method in battle with a Human Race Martial Saint was close combat, overpowering them with his physique.
But Wei Fan became a Body Ascension Saint, and close combat with a Body Ascension Demon was suicidal. Not engaging in close combat made him a living target for Wei Fan. Entry-level saber techniques were not only powerful but also hard to dodge.
He turned to flee, but he was no He Feiyu, lacking terrifying speed that even Wei Fan could not react to. Under the Perfection Level Cyan Nether Travel, his speed couldn’t match Wei Fan’s.
"Save me!"
He called out to the distant Dharma Demon Saint for help, but Zhou Shen and the old clan leader knew Wei Fan would soon kill the Golden Lion King. No way would they let the Golden Scale Python King and Five-Colored Demon Bull King come to rescue the Golden Lion King.
"Die!"
After Wei Fan unleashed the fourth slash, the Golden Lion King’s body was cut in half, and his primordial spirit was split in two.
[Slain Golden Lion King, gained 500,000 years of ordinary power, 1,200 years of Martial Saint’s power]
[Ordinary Power: 890,000 years]
[Martial Saint’s Power: 1,800 years]
"Rumbling..."
The Golden Lion King’s Dao began to collapse, causing the Great Dao to thunder, his Chain of Order turbulent. His cultivation was higher than He Feiyu’s, and the collapse of his Dao had a terrifying impact, even slightly shaking Wei Fan’s Dao.
"Wei Fan killed two Demon Saints, and even the Golden Lion King was slain by him!"
All the onlookers were stunned. Previously, He Feiyu could be considered lucky, but the Golden Lion King was killed through sheer strength, with not a hint of luck involved.
Wei Fan rushed over and collected the Golden Lion King’s corpse. The old demon Qilin Ape Saint, in his desperation to reach the Demon Emperor Realm, might consume even the Golden Lion King, but Wei Fan wouldn’t let this old demon benefit.
"Trash!"
The Qilin Ape Saint roared from afar, his large hands covered in scale armor making Gu Qingshan and Qin Xiao struggle to cope. Even though he hadn’t broken through, in some respects, he had already transcended the Saint Realm. Two Demon Hunter Organization Hall Masters couldn’t suppress him, and there was also the Black Flood Dragon King to worry about.
Gu Qingshan and Qin Xiao not only had to suppress the Qilin Ape Saint but also block the Black Flood Dragon King.
"You beast, you killed the Lion King!"
The Dragon-Horned Deer King was furious, and eyes were bloodshot. He and the Golden Lion King were both only Condensing Dao Realm. The relationship between the two Beast Kings of the clans was good. With the death of the Golden Lion King, he lost not only a friend but a steadfast ally.
"If you’re so grief-stricken, I’ll send you to accompany him!"
Wei Fan disengaged from the fusion with the Sword Dao. Although this state greatly increased combat power, it also consumed a terrifying amount of Heart Spirit. As he had just entered the Saint Realm, wielding Dao Power to kill was as cumbersome as a child wielding a large saber. If limitless Dao Power could be utilized, the Golden Lion King wouldn’t need him to kill; Li Jianchen would have long since slain the Golden Lion King and Dragon-Horned Deer King.
With his own strength, even without using Dao Power, he wouldn’t be inferior to the Dragon-Horned Deer King. However, his side was at a disadvantage, and the old clan leader and Zhou Shen were being suppressed, prompting him to quickly use Dao Power to slay the Golden Lion King.
This wasn’t the most dangerous part. The truly dangerous situation was the battlefield of Gu Qingshan and Qin Xiao. If this battle wasn’t resolved swiftly to aid them, the two might be killed by the Qilin Ape Saint and Black Flood Dragon King joining forces.
Of course, he could ignore it, rush over, and retrieve the Ten Thousand Spirits Bell to execute the Qilin Ape Saint. But first, he intended to slay all the Demon Saints here.
"Kill!"
Li Jianchen, seeing Wei Fan approaching, unhesitatingly drew upon the Supreme Sword Dao, merging with it.
Though he was a Sword Saint, merging with the Dao was a last resort, seldom used, as the Heart Spirit’s consumption was something he could hardly endure multiple times.
Keep in mind, Wei Fan’s metamorphosed primordial spirit, after slashing four times while merging with the Dao, was already feeling the strain; Li Jianchen couldn’t afford it, at most able to utilize it once in a short time.
The brilliant sword light crossed the Void World, fierce and swift, emitting a breath of annihilation.
"Roar!"
The Dragon-Horned Deer King roared, the terror of this attack lay in its unavoidable nature. The only option was to resist with equal strength.
Of course, it wasn’t completely unavoidable. But anyone who could evade the Great Dao lock wouldn’t fear such attacks.
The Dragon-Horned Deer King knew that the situation was dire. One Li Jianchen was already challenging enough; now with the addition of an even more extraordinary Wei Fan, he emitted a dazzling divine glow from his pair of Dragon Horns, causing the Great Dao to shake, and Dao Power surged forth.
"Crackle..."
In an instant, lightning and thunder enveloped his body, with lightning bolts as thick as arms darting around him, protecting his body.
"Boom!"
A thunderbolt as thick as a barrel shot out from between his double horns, aiming at Li Jianchen, who was one with the Dao. He didn’t choose to clash with Li Jianchen’s Sword Qi directly but instead opted for a self-destructive method to fight him.
Li Jianchen’s entire body trembled, getting blasted out of the Great Dao, sustaining minor injuries but nothing severe.
The Dragon-Horned Deer on the other hand fared worse. The resplendent Sword Aura slashed down, cutting through the electric aura surrounding him and striking his body, blowing half of it apart, with intestines gushing out as the devastating Sword Qi rampaged within him.
However, he couldn’t worry about all that, because the most terrifying threat was Wei Fan. Li Jianchen used this ultimate move to give Wei Fan a chance for a lethal strike.
"Ape King, save me!"
He roared, attempting to transform into Demonic Wind to escape towards the Qilin Ape, but Wei Fan dashed past like a bolt of lightning, the Hundred Rivers Saber slicing across his neck, severing his head, and his blood spurted high.
Will Power surged, shattering the Primordial Spirit of the Dragon Horned Deer King.
[Dragon Horned Deer King slain. Gained 500,000 years of Ordinary Power and 1,000 years of Martial Saint’s Power.]
[Ordinary Power: 1,390,000 years]
[Martial Saint’s Power: 2,800 years]
The Dao of the Dragon Horned Deer King appeared in the Void World, looking shorter than that of the Golden Lion King, before collapsing with a boom.
"Good!"
The old clan leader and Zhou Shen couldn’t help but shout, as both Wei Fan and Li Jianchen were free to act, and the forces on both sides were nearing balance.
Yes, they were only nearing balance. The old clan leader and Zhou Shen were both Dharma Martial Saints, while the Golden Scale Python King and the Five-Colored Demon Bull King were Dharma Demon Saints. Even with Wei Fan and Li Jianchen joining hands, they could only match one Dharma Demon Saint.
On the Demon Race’s side, the Qilin Ape Saint could suppress both Gu Qingshan and Qin Xiao, and the remaining Black Flood Dragon King couldn’t be matched by Zhou Shen or the old clan leader, leaving the human race at a disadvantage against the Demon Fiends.
"Good my ass, we’re barely holding on!"
Gu Qingshan shouted, he and Qin Xiao, even together, were no match for the Qilin Ape Saint, and they had to fend off the Black Flood Dragon King, who was a Great Saint Level Demon Saint, from killing Zhou Shen and others. At this moment, the two were disheveled and covered in blood, having suffered multiple injuries.
"Hold on a bit longer!"
Zhou Shen yelled, as long as Wei Fan and Li Jianchen teamed up with him or the old clan leader, they could quickly resolve their opponent, at which point they could aid Gu Qingshan and Qin Xiao, helping them face the Qilin Ape Saint.
"You’re all a bunch of useless fools, can’t even handle someone who’s just broken through!"
The Qilin Ape Saint roared angrily, as he couldn’t kill either Gu Qingshan or Qin Xiao in a short time, and if time dragged on, with Wei Fan’s bravery combined with Li Jianchen, it wouldn’t be too difficult to kill or drive off either the Golden Scale Python King or the Five-Colored Demon Bull King.
Should such an issue arise, his plan to consume Great Medicine to break into the Emperor Realm would be jeopardized.
"Boom!"
With this in mind, he abruptly changed direction, grabbing at the Black Flood Dragon King.
If he couldn’t swallow Martial Saint Great Medicine, swallowing a Demon Saint would suffice, though the effect wasn’t as good as with the Human Race, as long as he could enhance his power further, killing Gu Qingshan and Qin Xiao wouldn’t be an issue.
"Ape King, what are you doing?"
The Black Flood Dragon King, repelled by Qin Xiao’s halberd strike, hadn’t expected the Qilin Ape Saint to attack him, and before he could react, he was caught by the Qilin Ape Saint.
Though both were in the Great Saint Realm, differences in the Great Saint Realm were vast. Just like in the Condensing Dao Realm, the battle power of condensing one hundred zhang and one thousand zhang was naturally different.
The Black Flood Dragon King was barely in the initial Great Saint Realm, while Qin Xiao and Gu Qingshan were in the mid-stage Great Saint Realm, with the Qilin Ape Saint being a terrifying Demon Saint in the Half-Step Transcendent Saint Realm.
He struggled violently, his body crackling with lightning and thunder, but couldn’t shake off the Qilin Ape Saint’s grip.
"Your king will devour you and let you assist him in proving the Dao!"
Gu Qingshan and Qin Xiao were stunned, not expecting the Qilin Ape Saint to turn on the Black Flood Dragon King.
"Not good!"
They realized and reacted, their expressions changing dramatically. No matter whom the Qilin Ape Saint consumed, if this old demon’s Blood Qi reached its peak and broke through to the Emperor’s Ultimate Realm, everyone present would be doomed.
The two rushed desperately to stop the Qilin Ape Saint, but it was already too late.
The Qilin Ape Saint ripped the Black Flood Dragon King into two sections, reverting to his original form, with river-like blood splattering everywhere.
"Qilin Ape Saint, you will die a horrible death! My Flood Dragon lineage will not spare you!" The Black Flood Dragon King screamed in agony.
The Qilin Ape Saint remained indifferent. Once he became an Emperor, he had no fear of the Flood Dragon lineage. He opened his blood-red maw to catch the hot blood and then threw the two segments of the Black Flood Dragon King into his mouth, chewing voraciously, then swatted at the approaching Gu Qingshan and Qin Xiao, sending them flying like flies.
Everyone knew this was bad. Once the Qilin Ape Saint refined the Black Flood Dragon King, even a combined effort wouldn’t match him.
