886 Chapter 886: The Demon King’s Finger (1/2)
A burst of terrifying laughter shook the entire Southern Region.
Everybody was frightened. They lifted their heads, looking high up in the sky.
The sky darkened at a speed the naked eye could observe, and in mere moments, darkness had shrouded the entire world. It was like a scene from the apocalypse.
Crazy laughter rang out in the sky.
Above Illusory Spirit Swamp, a giant hovered arrogantly in the sky. His muscles bulged, exuding a terrifying aura.
His bronze bell-like eyes looked straight, as though he wished to see through the entire world.
The strongest demon king had been trapped underneath the Southern Region for ten thousand years. Finally, he had broken the shackles and returned to this world.
Unfortunately for the strongest demon king, he could not acquire the transcendence he had so desperately pursued.
Getting it would be the best outcome for him.
As the strongest demon king took in a breath of fresh air, he couldn't help but close his eyes.
Suddenly, the strongest demon king opened his eyes and gazed at a location in the distance, where a beam of light reached the sky.
That light beam was so dazzling with starlight twirling around.
”Heavenly Star Catcher Disk? The Hidden Dragon Continent's Heavenly Star Catcher Disk…” The demon king squinted before taking a step forward, and his body crossed a great distance. In an instant, he appeared in the sky above the Serpentmen City.
Boom! Boom!
The serpentmen raised their heads and looked at him, expressions of fright evident on their faces.
That terrifying pressure he exuded made the serpentmen feel as though they were experiencing doomsday.
Ni Yan soared up into the sky. Her extremely beautiful figure was covered in radiant starlight.
The entire Serpentmen City was covered by this starlight.
The visions of the serpentmen blurred, and they raised their hands, caressing the air above. It was as though their hands were wading through the stars.
Ni Yan's glabella glowed, exuding starlight. Her spirit sea was surging vehemently.
The Heavenly Star Catcher Disk was rapidly fusing with her essence and soul. Once they were fused, there would be two possible outcomes.
One, the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk's consciousness would swallow up Ni Yan. Two, the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk would transform Ni Yan. She would no longer possess sadness or happiness, for she would lose her seven emotions and six desires.
After all, the heavens were ruthless.
Since the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk connected the heavens' formation, it was only natural that it was ruthless.
The strongest demon king hovered above the Serpentmen City. His body continued to enlarge, and eventually, he became a giant.
His figure towered the entire sky above the city, and every serpentman below was frightened.
It… What kind of monster was that?! How could it be as big as the sky?
”Daring to fuse with the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk in this place, that human sure has guts. Since this is the case, I will fulfill it,” said the strongest demon king.
His voice reverberated through the sky, and everyone heard it.
The strongest demon king raised a finger and slowly pressed down on the Serpentmen City.
Boom! Boom!
The serpentmen looked so frightened as they gazed at the giant finger coming down on their city. Their minds became blank in an instant
However, the strongest demon king's finger rapidly began to reduce in size. Eventually, it reduced to the size of a normal finger, but it kept dipping downward.
In a few moments, the finger reached Ni Yan's glabella as she hovered in midair.
Suddenly, Ni Yan's body shivered, and the starlight radiating from her shattered and dissipated.
Ni Yan furrowed her brows and groaned. Blood oozed out from her nostrils and mouth.
She fell onto her bed, feeling fragile and vulnerable.
After that, the finger disappeared.
The serpentwoman maid was shivering on the ground, not daring to move an inch.
Meanwhile, the serpentmen in the city did not dare breathe out loud. Only after the laughter in the sky faded away did they finally get ahold of themselves and stand up.
…
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Shadows dashed out from the cave in the mine.
The experts that had waited by the entrance became alert.
The experts of the oceanic species and the demon scorpion race ogled the experts who were coming out.
The demon scorpion race's experts saw their commander shivering behind the team, and their faces changed.
Leading them was the human who had gotten past them earlier.
That human hadn't died yet?!
Some of the demon scorpion race's experts, who had been guarding the entrance, screamed, but as soon as they began this display of hostility, the commander of their demon scorpion race slapped them backward.
Just who were they threatening?
Hadn't they seen their commander dreadfully moving behind everybody else?
Did they think they could deal with this human? He had even dared to seize the strongest demon king's opportunity. How did they get the guts to act so hostile?
Forget Bu Fang, the old man, who had killed seven Heavenly Ethereal Realm experts, and the purple-haired Amethyst Elder weren't someone they could afford to provoke.
As for the stinky shrimp of the oceanic species, could they not see that it was lying on the shoulder of that bold human?
Even he didn't dare to provoke the human.
When Bu Fang got out of the mine, he saw many creatures around him, and this made him narrow his eyes.
