Chapter 691: Chapter 691: The Rampaging Plant-based Demonic Beast, Slaying Demons and Eliminating Evil
In order to maintain the order of the Eight Elemental Seas, the Divine Sea Dragon Empress had no time to return to the Jiaoyang Holy City.
“Violent Plant Beasts that are irradiated by the Power of the Crimson Moon will enter a frenzied state, with only their killing instinct remaining, and must be eliminated,” Ling Yue commanded.
“This subordinate understands.”
Upon receiving the command, the Divine Sea Dragon Empress quickly relayed the orders.
Within the palace of the Eight Elemental Seas Clan, a large number of Sea Clan members departed to hunt down the troublesome Cactoid Demons.
…
Sea God Island.
The strange Crimson Moon continually bathed the land in its glow.
In a bay at the southernmost part of the island.
Whoosh!
A strand of sea kelp suddenly shot up into the sky, greedily devouring the Power of the Crimson Moon, growing rapidly.
“Look, something’s happening!”
The Little White Fox transformed into a Three-Tailed Demon Fox in human form, standing only 1.3 meters tall and was moving bricks when she caught sight of the sea kelp shooting up into the sky at the southern bay of the island, which scared her into screaming.
Whoosh!
The kelp strand, one zhang wide and one inch thick, extended hundreds of meters above the water surface, splitting and giving rise to hundreds of massive kelps as it devoured the Power of the Crimson Moon.
They noticed the Little White Fox on the shore, and countless kelps, sharp as blades, rapidly slashed down.
“How dare you!”
The Little White Fox sensed their strength, finding them to be at the level of Demon Generals in the Element Gathering Realm, and forcefully hurled the brick she was holding.
Thump!
The brick, heavy and fast, flew like a meteorite, easily piercing through the kelp.
“Sea-Colored Claw!”
The Little White Fox cast another spell.
Her fingertips elongated, sharp as knives, and she made a horizontal slash.
Rip!
Ten pale blades of light cut horizontally, severing the kelp at the base, causing them to fall onto the sea surface, where the Little White Fox scooped them up with a large hand imbued with Demon Elemental Force and dragged them back near the Sea God City that was under construction.
“Wow, sea kelp soup for dinner today!”
“Xiao Bai, you’re so powerful.”
The Spiritual Beasts including Dog Er Ha, Pig San Pang, and Fox Da Hong gathered around, while Brother Flathead, mean and laconic, had already set up a pot.
The Iron Claw Dragon Eagle breathed fire to heat the large pot.
“Even daring to eat Crimson Moon Demons, terrifying!”
The Human Race Cultivators helping to construct the Sea God City witnessed this “ferocious” scene and all involuntarily swallowed their saliva.
But, as the fragrance of the cooked sea kelp soup wafted through the air, all the Demonic Beasts and Human Race Cultivators on the island crowded around.
“Ah, the sea kelp soup smells so good!”
“I just added several wild boar skeletons to the pot, the taste couldn’t not be delicious, could it?”
“And I added a goose carcass too!”
As the Cultivators ate, they chatted leisurely.
“Who’s the bastard who added boar bones to the pot?”
Pig San Pang, with his round belly, was drinking the soup when he heard that pork was added, instantly became so furious that he foamed at the mouth.
“Eating my kind, you want a death wish!”
The golden big goose was also very angry.
The two Spiritual Beasts threw down their bowls and chopsticks and chased after the group of Human Race Cultivators, beating and cursing them as they went.
“Hahaha…”
Seeing this, the other Cultivators couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
The atmosphere on Sea God Island always remained harmonious.
But as time passed, in the seas near Sea God Island, more and more sea kelp and aquatic plants absorbed the Power of the Crimson Moon, undergoing mutations.
They turned into Crimson Moon Demons!
These were vicious creatures.
They possessed only the will to kill, without fear, and strictly speaking, they weren’t considered sentient beings; they had to be eliminated, or else they would pose endless troubles.
Whoosh!
One day, near Sea God Island, a terrifying aura rose to the heavens, creating huge, towering waves.
Visible to the naked eye.
A large number of kelp detached from the sea and floated midair, resembling giant serpents suspended above the sea, and there were tens of thousands of them.
They had no eyes.
But, they had all mutated sharp beaks with fangs.
“Hiss, hiss!”
They gathered into a large demon army, advancing towards Sea God Island.
“So much delicious food!”
Fox Da Hong stared at the sky full of kelp demon fiends, her eyes shining with anticipation, wishing she could gobble them all up.
To others, these were terrifying demon fiends.
But for a foodie like Fox Da Hong, they were all delicacies, all meant to be devoured by her!
She licked her lips.
“Charge for me!”
She took the lead, charging out. With a raise of her hand, she sent a palm strike across the air; countless kelp were blasted into pieces, falling like numerous bits of paper from the sky, scattering along the coastline, unable to penetrate into Sea God Island.
“How… how terrifying!”
Fox Da Hong cleared the field with a single palm strike, leaving everyone with no chance to react. They were not just amazed but also silently acknowledged her as the Fox Clan’s Demon Emperor, truly as fearsome as legend had it.
“Big sister is so mighty!”
Dog Er Ha immediately sang praises, arguably the strongest brown-noser.
“Everyone, rest assured, with me here, Sea God Island will be safe,” declared Fox Da Hong, hands on her hips, her little face brimming with pride.
“Great Emperor is mighty!”
The Sea God Island’s island master uttered with a flattering expression.
He was a plump seal, at the peak of the Divine Origin Realm, self-proclaimed “Sea God.” Of course, to ordinary people, those in the Divine Origin Realm could indeed be referred to as “gods”.
“Continue constructing Sea God City, strive to complete the mission of opening our shipping route as soon as possible and go back to comprehend the mission rewards.”
Fox Da Hong reached out, rummaged in her fluffy tail for a while, and pulled out a fragrant, large duck leg to gnaw on openly.
With Fox Da Hong stationed at Sea God Island, safety was temporarily assured.
…
Marine plants were undergoing a massive transformation into Crimson Moon Demons.
And it was the same on land.
Barren Desert.
Qiao Jiaxi and Long Tianxing led the team, followed by dozens of second and third-generation disciples, venturing deep into the desert to slay demons and eliminate monsters.
In the team.
The third-generation disciple “Wu Lang” was among them.
After joining the Misty Sect, he was noticed by Long Tianxing and Qiao Jiaxi and was brought into the team, arriving at the Barren Desert.
“Wu Lang, I heard you’re a Tyrant Sword Cultivator?” Qiao Jiaxi asked.
“Reporting to senior brother, I am indeed a Tyrant Sword Cultivator, specializing in close combat, but I’m quite afraid of being attacked from afar,” Wu Lang quickly responded.
“What is your current cultivation level?” Qiao Jiaxi inquired further.
“Element Gathering Realm first stage,” answered Wu Lang.
“Then later, if we encounter Crimson Moon Demons with a not-so-high cultivation level, you take the lead and show us what you’ve got,” said Qiao Jiaxi.
“Okay!” Wu Lang nodded his head.
Before joining the Misty Sect, he was a “wandering swordsman,” alone and unattached, adventuring solo, with abundant combat experience, and was not afraid of battles, let alone intimidated.
Crash!
Just then, a large group of odd plant-based demonic beasts charged out of the desert; upon closer inspection, the members realized these were a horde of cactus spheres transformed by the Power of the Crimson Moon!
Each one was as big as a water tank.
Covered in red spikes, they emanated the aura of the peak Qi Refining Realm and, having only the instinct to slaughter remaining, were not deterred by the imposing presence of Long Tianxing and others, stubbornly charging ahead.
They attempted to stab their enemies to death with their body’s long spear-like spikes, then devoured the vital essence from their victims’ flesh to strengthen themselves.
“Let me do it!”
Wu Lang charged out.
Clang!
He suddenly drew the greatsword from his back.
It was a Bronze greatsword, weighing ten thousand pounds.
In a dim glow, the greatsword expanded to one and a half meters in length, half a meter in width, and a thickness of one inch.
At first glance, it could be mistaken for a door plank!
“What an odd sword.”
Everyone watched without blinking, curious about how Wu Lang would handle the hundreds of rampaging Cactoid Demons.
[I am in very bad condition, taking a day off, sorry!]
