Chapter 1810 (Raw 1822): Encountering an Ambush

One fart from the Demon Blood Vulture scared away ten-odd experts of the Demonic Dao sects.

While the method was somewhat crude, its might was rather reliable.

After thinking about it, Xiao Chen believed that he would have had to spend a lot of effort, at the very least, to scare away those ten-odd Demonic Dao sect cultivators.

Once the “poison gas” scattered, Xiao Chen slowly descended and saw the Demon Blood Vulture shrink down to the size of his palm.

The Demon Blood Vulture’s baleful aura was gone, with nary a hint of any demonic nature. Its gorgeous appearance made it appear harmless.

This bird is really strange…

Xiao Chen pondered in his heart, Those demonic clouds in the sky probably contain some kind of poison.

This is why Demonic Dao cultivators do not rashly absorb it. Otherwise, it would be a huge treasure trove.

To think that this Demon Blood Vulture only became small after absorbing it.

Xiao Chen could tell that its miniaturization was just temporary. Actually, its aura became even stabler.

The Demon Blood Vulture’s strength had clearly improved, nearly reaching peak late-stage Star Venerate.

Xiao Chen eyed the Demon Blood Vulture coldly and said indifferently, “Be more obedient. Don’t keep testing my patience.”

Earlier, the Demon Blood Vulture had definitely tossed Xiao Chen off on purpose.

The now palm-sized Demon Blood Vulture did not dare to show any temper when it saw Xiao Chen getting angry.

The Demon Blood Vulture clearly appeared somewhat afraid. It flapped its wings and landed on Xiao Chen’s shoulder.

The one hundred thousand great peaks appeared vast and endless. Xiao Chen did not know where he was right now.

The one hundred thousand great peaks, which the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s body had turned into, actually did not have many forests. Most of the region consisted of dilapidated peaks and rivers. The Demonic Qi that turned into clouds in the sky made it look extremely bleak.

Xiao Chen turned his head to look at the Demon Blood Vulture. He wanted it to become big again and carry him into the air.

The Demon Blood Vulture was not willing. It had just suffered from some indigestion, and its belly still felt extremely uncomfortable.

However, even if it was unwilling, it still had to obey. It spread its wings and carried Xiao Chen into the sky once more.

“Whoosh!”

Not long after the two flew out of the dense forest, the demonic clouds in the sky parted and formed a thousand-winged centipede trying to bite the Demon Blood Vulture.

When the Demon Blood Vulture spread its wings, it had a wingspan of three-hundred-odd meters; however, it still appeared small before this thousand-winged centipede.

If the thousand-winged centipede managed to bite the Demon Blood Vulture, the Demon Blood Vulture would die for sure.

As for Xiao Chen, on the Demon Blood Vulture, his fate would not be much better.

This was the means of the Fantasy Cloud Sect.

Xiao Chen did not find that thousand-winged centipede unfamiliar at all. It was very similar to what that Fantasy Cloud Sect old man had brought out.

However, this thousand-winged centipede was even more incredible and even more terrifying than that old man’s large snake.

The Demon Blood Vulture beneath Xiao Chen sensed danger. It roared, and countless beams of scarlet light shot out of its feathers, turning into sharp arrows shooting at the thousand-winged centipede.

A burst of tinkling came through. To think that the thousand-winged centipede was so tough.

“Dang! Dang! Dang!” The scarlet arrows that were now covered in poison all bounced back.

“Let’s go!” Xiao Chen shouted.

The enemy was hidden while he was in the open. He immediately made a decision. The Demon Blood Vulture pulled its wings in and turned into a beam of scarlet light, diving to the peaks in front.

That thousand-winged centipede wiggled its body as it relentlessly gave chase, noisily rushing over.

However, the centipede could not close the gap that was created at the start.

“Ptooey!”

Suddenly, the pursuing thousand-winged centipede opened its mouth and spat out a stream of poisonous gas that quickly arrived.

The surging Demonic Qi corroded Xiao Chen’s and the Demon Blood Vulture’s bodies. This Demonic Qi was vicious and poisonous.

The poisonous gas seeped through Xiao Chen’s clothes, and his skin started to melt away. Fortunately, His Veritable Essence Energy blocked it in time.

The poison did not penetrate into his body or blood vessels. Otherwise, his internal organs would immediately necrotize.

However, even so, the rate his Veritable Essence Energy was draining was exceptionally uncomfortable. The Demon Blood Vulture also found this hard to bear. If this went on, that thousand-winged centipede would bite them sooner or later. In the end, they would still die.

“Thunder Dao!”

Xiao Chen held two fingers together and ferociously swung them as he turned his head back.

Strong winds blew in the surroundings. Lightning flashed and thunder roared. Instantly, several hundred strands of saber Qi containing lightning-attributed energy shot out of his fingers.

Each strand of saber Qi was three hundred meters long and flashed with electric light. As the strands contained a Great Dao, their might was extremely horrifying.

Right now, Xiao Chen had already lit up eight stars on his 9-Star Primal Core. His Veritable Essence Energy rivaled that of a middle-stage Star Venerate and was even denser.

With one casual strike utilizing the berserk Thunder Great Dao, the saber Qi that he shot out already reached an exceedingly terrifying level.

The many strands of saber Qi immediately pierced thousands of holes in the thousand-winged centipede, slowing it down.

It was not over yet.

Xiao Chen shouted coldly, and the saber Qi that entered the thousand-winged centipede’s body coalesced into a clump of pure electric light.

Then, the electric light exploded exceptionally ferociously. That colossal thousand-winged centipede in the air immediately broke into countless pieces.

The poisonous gas spreading everywhere quickly dissipated. The countless pieces of the thousand-winged centipede gave off ghastly shrieks, sounding horrifying.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The Demon Blood Vulture caught hold of this opportunity to raise its speed to its limits. It turned into a flash of scarlet light and disappeared into the horizon.

When Xiao Chen reached safety, he gently jumped off, returning to the ground. His expression appeared rather sullen.

---

“Damn it. To think that a Major Primal Core Venerate managed to escape my hands.”

A pale youth flew out from the demonic clouds in the distance. He held a ghost pennant in his hand.

That youth quickly flew forward and soon arrived where the thousand-winged centipede had gotten chopped down.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The pieces of the thousand-winged centipede turned into strands of demonic smoke and entered the ghost pennant.

The ghost pennant glowed with a faint white light, and a vague Dao disk appeared behind it. As the demonic smoke entered the pennant, the Dao disk slowly brightened.

The pale Demonic Dao sect disciple looked around with a sharp gaze. Then, he said, “He ran really fast. How unfortunate! A mutated beast like the Demon Blood Vulture is very rare.”

“Hahaha! Qing Ziyu, you are a Fantasy Cloud Sect core disciple. To think that you can’t even capture a Major Primal Core cultivator. I’m truly astounded. You are an embarrassment to your Fantasy Cloud Sect.”

Suddenly, loud laughter rang out, which made the expression of the pale Demonic Dao sect disciple Qing Ziyu flicker.

A stocky man holding a demonic ax walked over.

This person’s bulging muscles looked full of strength like he could split mountains with his bare hands.

“It’s you!”

Qing Ziyu immediately recognized this person. This was Si Hongyi, a core disciple of the Heavenly Eagle Castle, one of the three Demonic Dao sects around the Myriad Star Mountain.

“If not for my carelessness of underestimating the enemy, how could he have any chance to survive? I should have merged the Dao disk into the thousand-winged centipede from the start.”

As Si Hongyi looked at the ghost pennant in Qing Ziyu’s hand, some fear flashed in his eyes, as well as well-hidden greed.

Actually, those Dao Tools that the Fantasy Cloud Sect sold were all trash. They were just mass-produced goods.

Only a Dao Tool that had been handed down for thousands of years, going through several different masters who nourished its Dao, could be considered a premium product.

It was not just the Fantasy Cloud Sect. The Heavenly Eagle Castle and the Blood Demon Palace were like that as well.

The truly powerful weapons would forever be reserved for the elites of the sect.

The ghost pennant in Qing Ziyu’s hand was also no ordinary premium product. That Dao disk had been tempered for at least a thousand years.

The Great Dao Energy it contained was very strong.

However, these were just Si Hongyi’s thoughts. The two’s strengths were very similar. Under normal circumstances, neither could do anything to the other.

Si Hongyi rolled his eyes and said, “Qing Ziyu, I think that ignorant white-clad fellow has not run far. This is likely his first time here, so he is definitely not as familiar with this place as we are. If we work together, we might be able to catch him.”

Qing Ziyu laughed involuntarily when he heard those words. “Brother Si’s words are wise. Actually, I was thinking the same thing. Your Heavenly Eagle Castle does not lack mutated beasts like the Demon Blood Vulture. That fellow’s physical body is pretty good; you can have it.”

The Heavenly Eagle Castle’s Cultivation Technique focused on the physical body. Their core Cultivation Technique came from an ancient Demonic Cultivation Technique.

This Cultivation Technique allowed one to consume a person’s physical body to strengthen their own physical body. It was just like cannibalism.

“That suits my intent!”

Si Hongyi laughed loudly, then gave a loud whistle. A nimble figure flew over from the demonic clouds in the sky.

Lightning tore across the sky, and thunderclouds slowly brewed. The weather changed drastically.

This was the traveling tool that only Heavenly Eagle Castle core disciples had, the Heavenly Thunder Eagle, a ferocious beast.

Qing Ziyu looked at that Heavenly Thunder Eagle and said admiringly, “At full power, both the acceleration and top speed of Brother Si’s Heavenly Thunder Eagle are much faster than that Demon Blood Vulture’s.”

Si Hongyi said cockily, “This is the basis of my confidence. This Heavenly Thunder Eagle will be enough to kill that fellow.”

“Is that so?”

Just at this moment, a cold, soft snort sounded in the surroundings. When it suddenly appeared, it immediately sent chills running down the two’s spines.

Who is it? To think that this person hid by them for so long, and they actually did not notice.
