Chapter 47: Demon Realm, Anqing!
Meanwhile, outside Lingchuan City.
Several grotesque monsters gathered together.
The mountain-like giant took a step, and the earth trembled. It opened its massive jaws, and its roar tore through the air:
"Those insects in the city want to escape!"
A green poisonous mist surrounded its massive body, and a petite, alluring banshee perched on its shoulder.
The succubus had a seductive face, like a succubus from hell. She parted her red lips slightly, her voice alluring:
"Escape? They can't get away. Coming out would just be suicide."
"Heh," another enormous demon with wings on its back chimed in, its voice hoarse, "The outside has long been sealed off by the demon realm. Their coming out is just what we need to fill our stomachs."
The two-winged demon turned, its gaze falling on the silent figure behind it: "Just in case, have the new members guard the outer perimeter. Green Mountain, what do you think?"
The figure stood silently, completely out of place with the three-headed, strangely shaped demon.
"Hehe, I think it's a good idea. We should give the new member a chance to prove himself!" the succubus shrieked.
Green Mountain let out a deep roar in agreement.
Three terrifying gazes converged, and the skin on the figure's face writhed, revealing a bizarre appearance that was half male and half female. The hoarse voice was androgynous:
"……good."
......
"Almost there!"
Zhang Ping was drenched in sweat; his horse had died from exhaustion on the previous leg of the journey. The towns along the way were deserted, and there was nowhere to change horses, so he had to activate his Divine Speed skill and run at breakneck speed on foot.
We're not far from Lingchuan anymore; just a little longer and we'll be there.
......
"They've broken through!"
Chu Hanwei led the way, followed by the city's strongest martial artists. The demons blocking their path were crushed with overwhelming force; only a few flesh-refining demons managed to gather and slightly slow the procession. Those forces without the protection of flesh-refining martial artists suffered considerable casualties.
In a life-or-death situation, no one cares about others. The wounded can't keep up with the group and are left to die!
Fu Huiying gritted her teeth, urged her horse forward, and noticed that three more martial arts disciples were missing from the group following behind her.
"Master's wife," Wang Dashan leaned closer, lowering his voice, his eyes blazing with fury, "it was clearly that old bastard Mao Xiangrong who deliberately released those demons!"
Fu Huiying's face was ashen, her eyes blazing with hatred:
"Tell your disciples... to be on their guard!"
At the forefront of the group, Chu Hanwei flicked her wrist, shaking off the beads of blood from her sword. She glanced up at the sky, still shrouded in black mist.
"Ling Qi! What is the connection between this black mist in the sky and the demonic ritual?"
She had limited knowledge of rituals and could only look to Ling Qi, who was well-read.
Ling Qi's face was deathly pale, and his voice was strained:
"Director...we're not out of danger yet! This is the Demon Realm! To truly escape, we must cross that barrier!"
Chu Hanwei's breath, which had just been relieved, tightened instantly.
"Where is the barrier?"
Ling Qi raised his hand and hurriedly pointed south.
Chu Hanwei raised his longsword high and shouted sharply through the noise: "Break through! Head south!"
The entire team was like a sharp knife, cleaving through the demons roaming the wilderness and stubbornly advancing towards the border of the demon realm.
At the edge of the Demon Realm, within that pitch-black barrier that seemed to connect heaven and earth.
The Green Mountain Kraken's lantern-like eyes rolled, watching the approaching human group:
"The bugs are coming... Ladies, time to eat!"
"Hehehe!" The succubus licked her sharp teeth, her pupils shrinking to slits. "It's been so long since I've tasted so much warrior flesh and blood... I'm going to have a feast! And then I'll capture a handsome young man to take back... and play with him properly."
The two-winged demon suddenly spread its enormous wings, which blotted out the sky.
The breakout team also saw the mountain-like green giant ahead, as well as the terrifying wings that stretched for hundreds of meters.
"Dirty demon!" Chu Hanwei's pupils shrank suddenly.
The three-headed demon is in the late stage of cultivation! Demons are inherently physically powerful and often have the upper hand in battle. The Demon Extermination Division has some counter-attack skills to slightly suppress them, but the martial arts masters behind them...
Mao Xiangrong's face instantly turned as if he had swallowed a fly. His team only had two filthy martial artists, while their opponents were three filthy demons!
This means he'll have to face at least one of them alone!
With his strength... how could he possibly stop him?
Before they could adjust,
The Green Mountain Demon roared, and the earth trembled! Countless demon figures roared and surged in from all directions!
"Watch your step!" Chu Hanwei warned sharply, taking a deep breath as his aura suddenly surged.
Two cold words were squeezed out from between his teeth:
"Slay the demon!"
......
"What is this?"
Zhang Ping stopped, panting heavily. He was only a dozen miles from Lingchuan when a pitch-black barrier, seemingly connecting heaven and earth, blocked his path. A strong aura of demonic energy rushed towards him.
He frowned deeply: "A cage set up by demons?"
If that's really the case... then we're in big trouble.
The barrier extends to the left and right, completely covering the entire river.
If you want to get in and save people, you must get through it! Forcing your way through will only make you a sitting duck for the demons.
Just when I was at my wit's end, a sudden burning pain shot through my forehead!
Zhang Ping's expression changed drastically, and he instantly drew his long sword, slashing fiercely to the right!
A sharp gust of wind swept through the air, and a large tree dozens of meters away snapped in two!
Smoke and dust filled the air, and broken pieces of wood lay scattered everywhere. Apart from the remains, there was nothing left.
It was as if the threat from before was just an illusion.
But Zhang Ping remained tense, not daring to relax even for a moment.
The owl beast pattern has been triggered; the source is right there!
"Come out!" he shouted, brandishing his sword and scanning his surroundings with lightning speed.
A deathly silence fell. Even the wind seemed to freeze, with only the eerie, low rumble of the shifting demonic barrier.
Snap... Snap... Snap...
A sudden burst of applause erupted.
"Your intuition is right..." The androgynous voice was as harsh as fingernails scraping glass.
Zhang Ping whirled around! When he saw the figure behind him, his heart stopped!
"Anqing!"
It was An Qing! The An family patriarch who had been spying on the original owner of this body! The pervert who had driven him into the Sitong Martial Arts School!
At this moment, Anqing appeared here strangely, his face skin writhing, revealing a bizarre appearance that was half male and half female.
Zhang Ping's sense of alarm instantly surged to its peak.
"Oh? You recognize me?" An Qing grinned, revealing a half-male, half-female mouth. One after another, jet-black chains emerged from her body, twisting and turning.
"I let you escape last time... This time, be a good girl and come back with me, I'll take good care of you..."
