Chapter 2114: Chapter 699: Slaying a Tier 4 Fierce Beast! Tihun’s Transformation! (Part 2)
Lu Changsheng, through his Taiyi Divine Soul and Fire Golden Eyes, perceived the black mist surrounding the Tihun Beast’s exterior, which would help it dispel ghost energy and demonic qi.
Moreover, all its attacks would receive an extra boost against these demonized beasts, and its power, when striking the Two-headed Lizard, could even surpass that of the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, a Third Rank Top Level Demon King.
“This is still just against the demonized beasts; if facing real Demonic Path cultivators and Fourth Rank Ghost Kings, the Tihun Beast’s combat power might rise another level.”
Observing the situation before him, Lu Changsheng gained a general understanding of the Tihun Beast’s circumstances.
If the latter grew to Third Rank Top Level, it might actually be able to bring down a Fourth Rank Ghost King!
He didn’t think much; with the Tihun Beast sharing the pressure from the front, the Daluo Sword Light in his hand continuously slashed out, chopping off the scales of the Demonized Two-headed Lizard, causing demon blood to splatter.
Even though this Demonized Lizard lacked spiritual intelligence, it sensed the intense danger, wishing to struggle and flee.
But faced with the frontal assault from Lu Changsheng and the Tihun Beast, and Ayoudo’s and the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng’s interception and restriction, it couldn’t escape at all.
“Prevent its counterattack!”
Seeing the scarred, increasingly frantic Two-headed Lizard before him, Lu Changsheng reminded cautiously.
His years of experience in the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range, hunting Demon Kings in the Great Dream Marsh, endowed him with ample experience.
Understanding that the Demon King, more or less at this stage, would make a last-ditch counterattack upon nearing death.
This kind of Fourth Rank Fierce Beast, even if it couldn’t kill one of them, might severely injure one of them in its death throes.
Lu Changsheng and Ayoudo still intended to explore the Abyss of Myriad Demons and didn’t want to be injured by this Demonized Two-headed Lizard.
“Rest assured, my Lord.”
With Lu Changsheng and the Tihun Beast’s frontal attack, Ayoudo fought with ease, his lifebound Spiritual Treasure, the [Five Poison Banner], flapping loudly as five-poison miasma suffused the air.
Holding a whip-shaped magical treasure in hand, he continuously lashed out, interfering and restraining the Two-headed Lizard.
“Roar!”
After half a quarter-hour, the blood-red, frenzied-eyed Demonized Two-headed Lizard attempted to counterattack but had no chance, choosing to abandon its struggle, fully activating its divine skills as its entire body became shrouded in toxic mist, seeking to petrify itself.
Lu Changsheng realized this was similar to the Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch’s cocooning divine skill.
Once it completed petrification and the Nirvana Seal, its defense would greatly increase, making it difficult to slay in a short period, requiring more qi-blood magical power.
In the Myriad Demon Abyss, filled with demonic qi, evil qi, ghost energy, and turbid energy, almost devoid of spiritual energy, one could only recover mana and stamina through elixirs and Spirit Stones, which was quite troublesome.
“Five Poisons, rise!”
As a Nascent Soul Cultivator, the Five Poisons Sect Leader was already prepared; upon seeing this, her delicate hand rapidly performed an incantation, and the five-colored long banner beside her fluttered.
In no time, the poisonous evil qi and gu insects she had previously infiltrated into the Two-headed Lizard’s body raged wildly, disrupting its divine skills.
At the same time, Lu Changsheng’s eyes sparkled brilliantly, and the Da Luo Sword Embryo in his hand slashed towards the lizard’s nearly scaleless, blood-soaked neck.
“Crack, crack, crack!!!”
Flesh splattered, bones shattered.
Seeing this, the Tihun Beast directed its crimson divine light from its brow at full force on the neck.
“Puchi!”
A gruesome, fearsome lizard head was directly slashed off, with demon blood gushing out like a spring, causing the Demonized Two-headed Lizard to let out a heart-rending howl.
“Kill it again!”
Seeing this, Lu Changsheng, along with the Tihun Beast, seized this opening and swiftly slashed out another sword, aiming to cut off its other head.
Injured and essentially at its end, the Demonized Two-headed Flood Dragon couldn’t resist, with yet another head being chopped off.
However, being a Fourth Rank Fierce Beast, even with both heads severed, it didn’t die immediately, as its heads and body seemed instinctively to try to reattach.
But Lu Changsheng wouldn’t give it the chance, as he unleashed the Yin Yang Qi Grasp, firmly binding the two heads.
Moments later, the Two-headed Demonized Lizard’s mountainous body collapsed with a thunderous crash, its life completely extinguished.
“Phew, such a Fourth Rank Fierce Beast, even without brains, is really hard to kill.”
Lu Changsheng looked at the Demonized Two-headed Lizard’s body before him, exhaling a long breath of turbid air.
Earlier, he felt nothing when he annihilated the Void Kun using the [Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror].
Now, relying on his own strength to slay this Demonized Two-headed Lizard, he profoundly realized how difficult it was to kill a Fourth Rank Demon King.
If there wasn’t an arrangement for backup and multiple restrictions, if it tried to flee, he truly found it hard to stop it alone.
“Fourth Rank Fierce Beast…”
The Five Poisons Sect Leader looked at the demonized lizard before her, her young face expressing complex emotions, as she glanced between Lu Changsheng and the Tihun Beast.
In this battle, although she contributed, it was mainly Lu Changsheng and the Tihun Beast.
The combined combat power of one man and one beast was downright terrifying.
“Ayoudo, do you require any materials?”
Lu Changsheng never hoarded spoils for himself. Looking at the trophies in front of him, he turned to ask the Five Poisons Cult Leader.
As he spoke, a gourd appeared in his hand, beginning to extract the blood of the Double-headed Demonized Lizard.
Though the blood of this Double-headed Lizard was polluted and demonized, far less valuable than the Essence Blood of the Void Kun.
Yet for him, who cultivated the “Brahman Demon True Saint Technique,” it was just right.
This was one of the reasons he came to hunt down Fourth Rank Demonized Beasts.
“This Double-headed Lizard should have two hearts. If the lord has no use for them, I could use the one with the toxic attribute for raising Gu Insects.”
Ayoudo spoke up, neither refusing nor appearing greedy.
“Alright.”
Lu Changsheng nodded and began dissecting the Demonized Double-headed Lizard before him.
The flesh couldn’t possibly be all taken away, and it was quite troublesome, so he let the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng and the Soul-calling Beast consume it.
However, the Nascent Soul Origin within the body of the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng was not completely refined. It ate a few bites but stopped to avoid its demonized flesh contaminating itself.
The Soul-calling Beast, on the other hand, was unaffected, directly feasting on the Double-headed Lizard before it. A black mist like ghost energy surrounded it, directly absorbing the blood essence.
To this, Lu Changsheng paid no heed as he dug out the earthen-yellow Beast Pill of the Double-headed Demonized Lizard, which shimmered with a ghostly green light.
The entire Beast Pill was surrounded by rich demonic energy, evil qi, and turbid energy, enough to contaminate many demon beasts and cultivators.
The Soul-calling Beast couldn’t help but look at this Beast Pill with a look of yearning.
Ordinary demon beasts dared not consume such a Beast Pill, as it could easily corrupt them. But to it, it was more suitable.
“You want it?”
Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow and directly tossed the priceless Fourth Rank Beast Pill to it.
On this trip to the Myriad Demon Abyss, the Soul-calling Beast had already demonstrated its combat power and value.
So Lu Changsheng was also willing to nurture it properly, allowing it to quickly advance to Third Rank Top Level, and Fourth Rank!
“Roar roar roar!!!”
The black-faced, tusked, and terrifyingly fierce Soul-calling Beast roared low in excitement. It caught the Fourth Rank Beast Pill and inhaled sharply, drawing out its Origin Essence.
“Finish the rest first, don’t waste it.”
Lu Changsheng said to the Soul-calling Beast, expressing that it should not waste too much.
The Soul-calling Beast, upon hearing this, reluctantly eyed the Beast Pill in its hand and then continued to absorb the blood essence of the Double-headed Lizard.
After giving the toxic attribute heart of the Double-headed Lizard to Ayoudo, Lu Changsheng processed all the valuable materials like bones, tendons, eyeballs, and claws, took an elixir to recover, and then went with Ayoudo to find the nest of the Demonized Double-headed Lizard.
These demonized fierce beasts, although lacking in spiritual intelligence, have the instinct of demon beasts to collect some Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.
“You stay here and keep eating first.”
Lu Changsheng said to the Soul-calling Beast, which was still feasting, hoping it would eat as much as possible.
…
Before long, Lu Changsheng and Ayoudo arrived at the nest of the Double-headed Demonized Lizard.
It was dark and deep here, with loose rocks scattered around like a demonic den.
“This is… Demon Soul Grass!”
Upon entering the nest, Lu Changsheng immediately saw strange weeds with several black grass leaves, neither scented nor glossy, and couldn’t help but step forward to examine them closely.
It was a very rare Spirit Grass with benefits for nourishing the soul and enhancing Soul Power.
Of course, the side effects were also quite clear.
During the consumption and refinement, it would cause Heart Demon interference affecting the mental spirit.
But for Lu Changsheng, who cultivated the “Six Desires Heart Demon Technique” and had the Mount Sumeru Tree King at home, this side effect was equivalent to none.
“Although the Myriad Demon Abyss lacks rare Spiritual Materials, this kind of Fourth Rank Fierce Beast’s nest would naturally have quite a few good things.”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself as he collected the four Demon Soul Grass, placing them in a Brocade Box, planning to consume one himself when he returned to experience the effects.
Then, he would enhance the souls of his son Lu Lingxiao, daughter Lu Wangshu, and others, allowing them to experience the effects of a Heart Demon in advance.
The two continued searching inside the Cave Mansion but found no exotic treasures.
However, being a Fourth Rank Fierce Beast, like most Demon Kings, the Double-headed Demonized Lizard had collected a lot of Crystal Mines stored in its nest.
Many were Fourth Rank Crystal Mines, usable for refining Magical Treasures and crafting Puppets, not a small gain.
After digging three feet deep into the nest, Lu Changsheng and Ayoudo returned the way they came, setting up an Array Formation Restriction. They meditated through Spirit Stones and the Spiritual Eye Spring, waiting for the Soul-calling Beast to finish its meal.
Meanwhile, Lu Miaoge, Lu Ping’an, Lu Wangshu, Li Xingruo, and others arrived at the Li Family of Great Cliff Mountain.
