However, this way, the human demons would definitely suffer heavy casualties. The current number of human demons was barely enough. If they died in large numbers, they would probably be targeted by more monsters along the way!
Lin Yan clenched his fists. After mastering so many human demon servants, he was unwilling to throw them away so easily. It seemed like he had to take action personally.
After killing so many servants previously, Lin Yan had already thought of an idea. With his invisibility ability, he would secretly join the battlefield under the cover of the human demon king and integrate his attacks into the attacks of the human demon king.
Not only could he deal with some enemies that the human demon king could not deal with, but he could also increase the power of the human demon king, making all the human demons more loyal.
With a thought, he ordered the human demon king to step out alone.
The human demon king roared angrily. Its huge sharp claws tore open several incomparably sharp marks on the ground and shot towards the terrifyingly huge lion scorpion like a valiant general!
Its physique was much stronger than ordinary human demons. With just its physique, it could resist the Jade Grade Force Feature. It was something that even the two-headed lion scorpion could not ignore.
The two lion heads roared brazenly, and two balls of smelly green shadows instantly shot out and smashed towards the human demon king.
The human demon king’s four limbs hammered the ground, and its body suddenly flipped to the side. It barely dodged the attack, and the two green shadows hit the ground. In an instant, dense sizzling sounds sounded, emitting a violent corrosive stench.
It was actually two balls of extremely corrosive jade-green acid. In an instant, they formed two green pools with a diameter of at least one meter on the ground.
Swoosh!
A black shadow suddenly descended from the sky. Its sharpness was like a needle as it instantly pierced in front of the human demon king’s head!
Scorpion Tail Needle!
The human demon king was tumbling to the ground and could not dodge in time. He could only watch as the scorpion tail needle stabbed in front of him!
Clang!
The terrifying impact caused a large cloud of dust to instantly explode. It stopped in front of the human demon king and could not pierce through at all!
Lin Yan, who was wrapped in the Black Tortoise Divine Armor, was already blocking the scorpion tail needle. Due to the fact that his Black Tortoise Divine Armor had not been stacked enough and was blown up by Old Master Qian’s self-destruction, along the way, Lin Yan crazily squeezed out blood energy to stack armor.
The scorpion tail needle was pressed against the Black Tortoise Divine Armor, but it could not even pierce through it.
The human demon king had long received Lin Yan’s order. Under the cover of the dust, it extended its claws past Lin Yan’s shoulder and grabbed at the scorpion tail!
Crack! Crack!
Its sharp claws erupted with terrifying strength, cutting through the scales of the scorpion’s tail, but it still couldn’t cut it off!
However, in the next moment, a black wave of heat instantly streaked past and cut into the scorpion tail scales, chopping off the scorpion tail needle!
Roar!
The two-headed lion scorpion let out a miserable cry, and its figure instantly retreated like lightning.
Lin Yan commanded again to take its life while it was injured!
The human demon king roared and bared the fangs in its mouth. It took large strides and jumped up. While the two-headed lion scorpion was fleeing, it chased after it and jumped onto its back!
Lin Yan also followed closely and landed lightly beside him. The human demon king’s claws suddenly stabbed into the back of the two-headed lion scorpion.
Lin Yan’s Savage Flame saber also entered under the cover of the Black Tortoise Divine Armor!
The Chaotic Fog was three meters away, so they could not see the details clearly. Many human demons, Cheng Yu’er, and Hua Ling only saw a huge black shadow rushing left and right in the fog, constantly struggling. From time to time, it would break towering trees and stubborn rocks on the mountain path. There were even screams of fear, anger, and despair that rose and fell, stirring the fog.
Then, there was a sudden loud bang on the ground, and everything fell silent.
Cheng Yu’er and Hua Ling looked at each other, their faces slightly pale. The strength of the two-headed lion scorpion had already exceeded their imagination. Perhaps even a Jade Grade Noble Realm cultivator would not be able to injure it at all in front of such a two-headed lion scorpion.
“How’s it going?”
“Is it dead?”
“Who won?”
Suddenly, there was the sound of the ground shaking.
On all fours, the thin figure of the Demon King slowly appeared. Behind it, a seven to eight-meter-tall two-headed lion scorpion that had its stomach cut open and was on the verge of death was pulled out of the fog.
All the human demons held their breaths at first. Then, one of the human demons raised his head and roared, “King!”
The other human demons began to roar fanatically. They raised their heads and roared, “King! King! King!”
Lin Yan sat cross-legged on the lion scorpion corpse and played with a Spirit Marrow in his hand. He flipped over and jumped down from the lion scorpion corpse.
He silently walked to the back and hid himself again.
This Spirit Marrow was at least fourth-grade or even fifth-grade. It was heavy in his hand. Moreover, just now, the human demon king instinctively wanted to eat this Spirit Marrow. His emotions clearly showed his greed for it.
Lin Yan didn’t know what the consequences would be if he ate the Spirit Marrow and whether it would affect the control of the servant puppet, so he snatched it first.
However, although the Spirit Marrow had been snatched, all the human demons showed strong desire when they saw the corpse of the two-headed lion scorpion. If not for the fact that the human demon king had just defeated the evil enemy and intimidated the demons, they would have pounced on it long ago.
At this moment, Lin Yan didn’t forbid the human demons from doing whatever they wanted.
Therefore, the human demon king first tore off the other head of the scorpion and gnawed at it in large mouthfuls. Then, it waved its claws. The remaining five human demon commanders also pounced on it one after another and tore off the most fat and tender parts of the scorpion to eat.
Finally, all the human demons swarmed forward and devoured the remaining corpse.
The scene of the human demons eating was too disgusting, so Lin Yan sank along the ground again, leaving Cheng Yu’er and Hua Ling surrounded in blood.
By the time the human demons finished eating, the entire two-headed lion scorpion was only left with desolate bones, so the group of human demons set off again.
Along the way, they naturally encountered many other demonic creatures. Lin Yan attacked those who targeted the demon crowd and cooperated with the human demon king to kill them. He took out the Spirit Marrow and threw the corpses to the demon crowd as food.
Along the way, he also encountered a terrifying monster that was hundreds of meters long and was like a mountain. It was extremely terrifying. Even Lin Yan did not have any confidence and could only let the human demons pray for themselves.
Fortunately, this monster was not interested in human demons at all. It only swayed its body and crushed three human demons to death, not taking them seriously at all.
After eight hours, the group of human demons finally arrived in front of a natural chasm.
It was unknown how deep the cliff was. The bottom was completely covered by the Chaotic Fog, and he could not see his left and right clearly. Deep down, there was the faint sound of water and wind.
However, all the human demons sensed that under the cliff and abyss was a home that attracted their souls to approach.
Lin Yan had already come up from the underground. He realized that along the way, as the human demons ate many other demonic creatures, all the human demons had various mutations of different degrees!
Some human demons had arms that were three to four times thicker. Their muscles and veins were bulging. Their strength had also increased by several times.
Some human demons had densely packed thin horns on their foreheads. In the middle was a single horn, and the shape of their faces was slightly mutated.
They all had different forms. Some had ferocious horns, some had black hair all over their arms, and some had huge tails full of barbs…
Suddenly, Lin Yan recalled the illusion he had seen in Zhang Yangzhou’s hand!
In the illusion, countless half-human and half-beast demons mated with beautiful women. Those half-human and half-beast demons had many similar characteristics!
On second thought, weren’t these characteristics from the monsters that he had killed along the way?
These human demons had actually plundered some of the characteristics of their bodies by devouring demonic creatures!
“So, is this the way a human demon evolves, or rather, upgrades? Also, if a human demon devours the Spirit Marrow, will there be an even stronger and more obvious evolution?”
Lin Yan cast his gaze into the deep abyss.
He had roughly guessed where this place was and why it had attracted human demons.
Because along the way, he found some extremely dilapidated traces of city ruins underground.
One of the plaques showed where this place used to be.
There was a word on the plaque: Qingye..
