Chapter 1073: Annihilation
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The Zither Melody of Heavenly Demon was a dreadful art to confuse the mind and create illusions. During the fight, Tang Xiu realized that even though this demonic beast had a powerful mental power, it was still suppressed by the rules of this plane and became very weak. With such a condition, it was better to use Han Qinwu’s Zither Melody of Heavenly Demon to influence it.
As expected, the movements of Bloodfiend Monarch were considerably slowed down. It must be noted that a slight carelessness in a battle between powerhouses was enough to make one meet their demise. Bloodfiend Monarch’s speed was slowed down and its strength was weakened, even though it desperately struggled to shake its head to shake off the zither melody that invaded its mind.
BOOM…
The Fire Qilin opened its mouth. A red bullet that was as though a scorching sun was shot out and exploded as it hit the Bloodfiend Monarch. As the demonic beast wailed, Xue Yu brandished her immortal sword and tore a bloody wound on its back. The wound was very serious and made Bloodfiend Monarch almost fall to the ground.
“Ancestral Reverse of Myriad Swords!”
Controlling the divine sword, Tang Xiu unleashed thousands of sword shadows and shot all of them toward Bloodfiend Monarch’s body. As the Fire Qilin looked shocked, he pierced Bloodfiend Monarch’s body and left hundreds of bleeding wounds.
ROAARRR…
Bloodfiend Monarch looked desperate, for it never dreamed that someone could pierce its body only by relying on a sword. One must know that it had formed a layer of defensive shield inside its body that even top-grade immortal swords without strong power to manipulate it wouldn’t be able to pierce its body.
‘That sword…’
Bloodfiend Monarch though in the midst of its wails. Then, it instantly turned around and bolted toward the depths of the Himalayas. But after it ran away for more than 10km, its aura suddenly dissipated and its body fell to the ground.
‘Huh? That guy died just like that?’
The Fire Qilin just stared dumbly at the body of Bloodfiend Monarch that fell on the ground. Its figure flickered a few times and appeared next to the corpse.
Tang Xiu was grinning. He had appeared in front of Bloodfiend Monarch’s corpse a step ahead. He kept slashing his divine sword and cut Bloodfiend Monarch’s corpse into eight parts, all of which were then stuffed into his interspatial ring.
The Fire Qiling angrily glared at Tang Xiu and growled. “Give me the Demon Core of this demonic beast!”
“Nope. You’re using Demon Cores to patch the array, yes?” Tang Xiu shook his head and said, “I can help you with that. But Demon Cores are very important to me, so I can’t give you this one either. If anything, your only purpose is to repair the Spatial Teleportation Array and return to the Immortal World. Am I right?”
” Hmph . That’s right. I want to go back to the Immortal World.” The Fire Qilin snorted. “I’ve been trapped on Earth for tens of millenniums already. I’m going crazy here!”
“I give you my word that you can leave freely if you can patch that Spatial Teleportation Array.” Tang Xiu said, “But I still have another means to take you back to the Immortal World even if your attempt fails. However, I still need a longer time. Could be a decade or two.”
“You have a way to go to the Immortal World?” the Fire Qiling was surprised and asked, “How do you do it, exactly?”
“I can ascend to the Immortal World if I succeed in crossing my tribulation,” said Tang Xiu. “By then, I naturally have the means to bring many people to the Immortal World.”
The Fire Qilin gave Tang Xiu a deep stare. Then, it nodded and said, “I’ll take your word this time. But I hope you don’t let me down. I’ve waited for tens of millenniums, I couldn’t care less to wait for more for a decade or two. If you really can bring me back to the Immortal World, then I won’t bother with those Demon Cores.”
“Deal!” answered Tang Xiu immediately. Demon Cores were too important for him since he would need more resources the more he advanced in cultivation. If he could get himself nearly 100,000 Demon Cores, he was sure that he could have continuous breakthroughs smoothly and finally reach a cultivation level that was on par with experts at the Immortal Stage.
“Please lend your hand to help the human cultivators kill the rest of these demonic beasts then, Fire Qilin! We still got tons of them here, so let’s kill more of them, lest the other human cultivators die,” Tang Xiu said as he turned to look at the direction of Ugley town.
“Fine!”
The Fire Qilin itself was actually indifferent. However, it was thanks to Tang Xiu and the others that it could kill that particular demonic beast.
With the Fire Qilin, Tang Xiu, Han Qingwu, and Xue Yu lending a hand, the tide of the battle where the human side was originally suppressed instantly changed. Han Qingwu used her zither melody to attack, whereas Tang Xiu and Xue Yu were just literally everywhere in the battlefield, unceasingly reaping the lives of those demonic beasts. Fire Qilin was even more brutal. It was simply like a tiger preying on a flock of sheep, leaving nowhere else for the demonic beasts to escape but to be killed by it.
