Chapter 238: Pus.h.i.+ng Back the Three Demons

For Hermaphroditic Little Demon Liao to have been humiliated by SongZhong as such, he was angered till the point his face turned green. Following which, he scolded, “Then go and die!” As he said that, he activated the black threads as they attempted to entangle SongZhong.

SongZhong just could not figure out what these black threads were. Helpless, he could only secretly release a demonic witch while asking her telepathically, “Quickly tell me what this darn thing is!”

The way SongZhong saw it, the demonic witches had inherited the memories of the FenShen cultivators and were already omnipotent beings. They would most certainly be able to recognise this weird magical artifact.

Indeed, after the demonic witch appeared, her eyes lit up as she quickly explained, “Master, this is the Ten Thousand Ancient Soul Thread, it is created by refining the life essence of a cultivator through an evil method. Every single thread here is equivalent to a cultivator’s life essence!”

When SongZhong heard that, he almost died from shock. You have to know, the black threads which Hermaphroditic Little Demon Liao were extremely dense and able to cover the skies. There were at least a few hundred thousand black threads within it! He then exclaimed, “This is impossible right? No matter how strong he is, he can’t possibly kill a few hundred thousand cultivators right?”

“He definitely inherited it from someone else. He is also able to use the life essence of a demonic beast to refine it. Seeing as how we are at the Eastern Ocean, this is most probably a magical artifact which an ancient cultivator refined with the large amount of demonic beast here and was obtained by him!” The demonic witch quickly explained.

“So this is the case!” Only then did SongZhong come to a realisation. But, he quickly asked, “I can’t harm this thing with the divine lightning or sword Qi. Don’t tell me I can only escape? How can I block it?”

“Master, the Ten Thousand Ancient Soul Thread is actually the same as life essence and does not have a physical body. After it is refined, it is greatly strengthened. It would be difficult to destroy it with weapons or spells. As such, it became an extremely powerful demonic magical artifact. However, it is extremely simple for you to deal with them since you have us!” The demonic witch then said to SongZhong with a yearning tone, “Master, this thing is something extremely beneficial to us! Can we...eat it?”

“Do you need to ask?” SongZhong quickly released all the nine demonic witches and shouted, “Quickly eat it! Eat them all!”

“Yay!” The nine demonic witches celebrated as they began to swallow the surrounding threads.

Everything indeed has its weaknesses! SongZhong had already unleashed all of his trump cards but was unable to deal with the black threads at all. But in the face of the demonic witches, the black threads turned into a meal. In just a single instant, they are able to swallow dozens of black threads. The demonic witches then traversed around the black threads happily. Apart from SongZhong who was their master, no one else was able to see the demonic witches in their formless form. Everyone was only able to see the black threads slowly diminis.h.i.+ng.

Being the owner of the Ten Thousand Ancient Soul Thread, Hermaphroditic Little Demon Liao was able to feel it the most clearly. He immediately felt that something was wrong, as though there was something eating up his own treasure. This was his Natal Artifact which he had treasured greatly. If anything were to happen to it, he would suffer greatly.

Thus, he quickly kept the black threads as he shouted, “Dammit, what...what is this?”

“Something good!” SongZhong then gave a malevolent smile, “You can have a good taste of it!”

In the time they spent talking, the demonic witches had already gobbled up thousands of black threads. Hermaphroditic Little Demon Liao almost died from the heartache. However, while it was easy to release the black threads, he needed time to keep them. Thus, despite how anxious he was, he did not have a choice. The demonic witches were able to eat their fill and continued eating at such a speed. By the time Hermaphroditic Little Demon Liao finished collecting all the black threads, he would lose at least tens of thousands of them. If that was the case, the strength of his magical artifact would definitely be greatly weakened. The time taken for it to become a spiritual artifact would also be greatly delayed.

Helpless, Hermaphroditic Little Demon Liao could only choose to escape. As he escaped, he quickly kept the Ten Thousand Ancient Soul Thread in an attempt to reduce the speed at which was being eaten.

Being someone with a reputation, even if he were to escape, he would still leave some words behind, “Darn fatty, this matter isn’t over yet. I have something on today and will leave first, I will definitely come back and find you again!” As he said that, he quickly flew away on his flying sword.

As SongZhong heard that, he was enraged as he gave chase on his flying sword. At the same time, he scolded, “Why wait until tomorrow? Since the matter between us isn’t over, why not we settle it today?!” As he said that, his Five Elements Essence Sword slashed out.

Hermaphroditic Little Demon Liao could not help but unleash a green ring-like magical artifact to defend against the attack. Although he was able to block the attack, it affected his escaping speed as well as the speed at which he was collecting the black threads. As a result, the demonic witches ate a lot more black threads.

Hermaphroditic Little Demon Liao was extremely anxious. While he wanted to teach SongZhong a lesson, he was worried about his magical artifact. Besides, he was really afraid of SongZhong now. Now that his most prized magical artifact was useless against him, what else could he use to fight SongZhong?

Thus, the Hermaphroditic Little Demon Liao really became afraid in his heart. After scolding SongZhong a b.a.s.t.a.r.d, he turned to his subordinates and scolded, “Are you guys all dead? Why aren’t you trying to stop him!”
