Killing God - Chapter 136
Chapter 136 An Expert
The little boy’s cries instantly stopped. He didn’t seem to understand what was happening. He struggled to climb down from Ah Hu’s back and knelt beside the Tiger Demon, who was several times bigger than him. His eyes were filled with tears and his hands were trembling incessantly. He pouted words that no one could understand, as if he was shouting incoherently.
However, his voice was already hoarse. At the same time, Shen Shi discovered that the little boy’s situation seemed to be somewhat strange. His originally pale face, which was fleeing for his life, suddenly gushed with a strange bright red color. That color was so strange that Shen Shi almost thought that the blood in the child’s body had flowed out directly.
He was a little stunned. He subconsciously took a step forward, but before he could speak, the little boy kneeling beside the Tiger Demon suddenly raised his head. The strange red tide on his face grew brighter and brighter, and his eyes revealed deep hatred. He stared at the black-robed man and suddenly screamed, “You killed Ah Hu, you killed Ah Hu …”
Amidst the shrill screams, the child seemed to have gone mad. He picked up all the stone pigs beside him and smashed them. Stones, dirt, rotten leaves, and even all the bits and pieces of debris on his body. However, to Shen Shi, these light feathery powers were not even enough to scratch his body, and could not cause any harm at all.
But for some reason, facing such a hysterical child, Shen Shi and Shi Zhu involuntarily took a step back.
The little boy smashed everything he could throw out. His voice was already hoarse but he was still shouting. It was as if he had gone crazy or abandoned himself. He used his small and fragile body to pounce on the stone pig. Shi Zhu was stunned for a moment. He actually forgot to dodge. However, when the child hit his body, it was as if he had instantly hit a hard stone pig. He could not help but bounce away. Yet, this child was still desperate to bite and kick him. That strength was similarly weak. With Shi Zhu’s strong body, it could even be ignored.
Shi Zhu frowned slightly and felt a bit more confused. He didn’t know what to do and turned to look at Shen Shi. If he had encountered something like this earlier, perhaps he would have simply slashed down with his axe. However, at this time, perhaps there had been too much bloodshed tonight, and he actually didn’t have the slightest bit of killing intent in his heart.
He did not resist or stop the child. He allowed the child to struggle desperately by his side, while Shen Shi slowly frowned and squatted down. Seeing the child’s increasingly flushed face, which seemed to be about to drip blood, he intuitively felt that something must have happened to the child. Something was wrong.
“Boom!”
A low sound came from not far behind them. A door was kicked open. Shen Shi and Shi Zhu turned around at the same time. Following the sinister laughter and the chaotic footsteps, a group of Blue Snake Demon race’s demon soldiers rushed into the courtyard.
Almost at the same time, beneath the dark night sky, above Fengming City, who had already sunk into a sea of fire and was groaning in pain, suddenly came a loud and furious shrill phoenix cry. In the distant horizon, dark clouds were rolling like boiling water. Clouds and waves of lightning flashed and thunder roared. A gigantic black figure that covered the sky and covered the sun appeared in the night sky, like a giant phoenix.
The patriarch of the Black Phoenix Demon race, the old black phoenix that had dominated the Green Spirit World for nearly a hundred years, finally rushed back to his lair. In the midst of endless fury, he revealed his incomparably powerful true body as soon as he entered the arena.

For a long time, Old Black Phoenix had been recognized as the strongest Demon race in the entire Black hell Mountain. He was also the only great demon in this world who had cultivated to the Earth Demon Realm for many years. The reason why Black Phoenix Demon race was able to intimidate Black hell Mountain with the strength of a single clan and dominate it for many years was because of this powerful old Black Phoenix.
This situation continued for many years, until in the south of Black hell Mountain, another stunning snake demon appeared in the Heavenly Azure Snake Demon tribe that had been suppressed by the Black Phoenix Clan.
The appearance of Yu Lin, to be exact, was the appearance of Yu Lin after cultivating to the Earth Demon Realm, completely changing the situation of the Black Prison Mountain Realm’s Black Phoenix Demon race bloodline. On the southern bank of the Blackwater River, facing Yu Lin, who was at the Earth Demon Realm, and her increasingly powerful Heavenly Azure Snake Demon Clan, the resistance of all the native Demon race collapsed like snow. Within twenty years, the Azure Snake Clan had grown into a powerful Demon race that was comparable to the Black Phoenix Demon race.
This decisive battle would come sooner or later. Regardless of whether it was the Black Phoenix or the Azure Snake, neither of the two Demon race understood this point.
The key to the final battle was naturally the battle between the old black phoenix that had dominated the Green Spirit World for a hundred years and the powerful Yu Lin, who was known as the genius of the demon race once every hundred years, and the two Earth Demons.
However, such a decisive battle was of great importance. It involved all of them. Once they attacked, there was no room for manoeuvre. Even people like Old Black Phoenix or Yu Lin did not dare to start the battle easily. At the beginning of the battle, they were still fighting with ordinary Demon race.
However, the old black phoenix that had been ambushed by the Azure Snake Demon Clan could no longer endure this scene. It brazenly appeared in front of countless demon clans with its true body. Following this was a heaven-shaking roar that resembled the roar of a dragon and a tiger in Phoenix Cry City.
In Phoenix Cry City, which was trapped in a sea of flames, a chaotic shouting Phoenix Cry City suddenly seemed to have been frozen by something. All the sounds and flames instantly stopped. Then, in everyone’s eyes, an incomparably gigantic, mountain-like body suddenly rose from the sea of flames and soared into the clouds.
It was an incomparably terrifying giant serpent in the dark night. It coldly revealed its true body and confronted the gigantic black phoenix in front of it with incomparable might in the distant sky.
The Heavenly Azure Snake Demon’s Master, Yu Lin, had also sneaked into Phoenix Cry City and stood out at this critical moment.
This final battle between the two great Demon race was finally at its final moment.
④
Gale whistled and swept through the entire Fengming City. At this moment, countless Demon race raised their heads to look at the sky. They looked at the two extremely powerful Earth Demons in the sky and at the rare azure snake and black phoenix. Their eyes were filled with wild fervor.
The legendary peerless Heavenly Yao had long since disappeared from the memories of most ordinary Demon race. The highest realm they could imagine in their lives was this scene in front of them. When that earth-shattering battle really started above the horizon, too many Demon race were dazzled and forgotten about it.
Inside the Black Phoenix Mansion, countless courtyards were filled with countless flames that were still burning unconsciously. Fire snakes greedily corroded the houses and pavilions. Suddenly, a white figure rushed over like lightning through the crack of the flames. Under the illumination of the flames, his face was reflected. It was precisely the brocade-robed youth who had once talked to the old black phoenix.
At this moment, however, his face was filled with anxiety. He clenched his teeth tightly, his face ashen, and his figure was as fast as lightning, constantly searching through the courtyards.
No one knew what he was looking for, However, as the courtyards were filled with disappointment and gazes, the scene of the Azure Snake Demon Army invading and setting fire to and slaughtering countless corpses caused the brocade-robed youth’s expression to become more and more unsightly and anxious. A strand of killing intent gathered on his face, and it seemed as if he was about to lose his patience.
However, at this moment, the two Earth Demons in the sky began to fight. The fate of the two great Demon race was about to be divided into life and death. Countless Demon race held their breaths and waited, but the youth in brocade suddenly heard a faint cry from a distant courtyard. It seemed familiar.
The brocade-robed youth’s heart trembled. Without hesitation, His figure paused and he jumped up. After stopping in mid-air, In the blink of an eye, it turned into a dazzling white light that shot out. Along the way, there were countless tall walls and trees in the pavilion hall, but he was so anxious that he completely ignored them. He was like a giant beast that had lost its rationality and rushed all the way. In an instant, the wall collapsed, the trees broke, and the houses collapsed. Smoke and dust billowed like a terrifying dragon. From afar, he looked like an ancient beast as he charged into the courtyard.
The momentum behind his charge was so terrifying that the many Azure Snake Demon race and the hysterical little boy, who had been obsessed with the final battle in the sky, turned their heads in horror.
Before all Demon race could react, the little boy had already seen the brocade-robed youth’s face clearly. He immediately shook his body a few times and cried out,
“Big Brother Xuan, Ah Hu is dead, Ah Hu is dead …”
The brocade-robed youth he called “Big Brother Xuan” swept his gaze and saw the huge corpse of the Tiger Demon lying on the ground. He saw the huge wounds caused by the giant axe that had been slashed into his chest and the scales on his body. At that moment, the brocade-robed youth’s entire face turned pale, and an indescribable furious killing intent spurted out.
The demons felt their eyes go blurry. A white light flashed, and the youth in brocade robes appeared beside the little boy, pulling him away from the stone pig. However, the youth in brocade robes saw the strange phenomenon on the little boy’s cheek that seemed like blood was about to drip. He was immediately shocked, almost unable to say anything. His legs and feet were slightly weak, and his heart sank.
The little boy was completely unaware. Although he was clearly exhausted, he gritted his teeth and forcefully pointed at the stone pig. He shouted angrily, “It’s him! He killed Ah Hu! Big Brother Xuan, avenge Ah Hu, avenge Ah Hu …”
Before he could finish his sentence, the little boy suddenly tilted his head and fell into the embrace of the brocade-robed youth. He instantly lost consciousness and fainted.
The youth in the brocade robe was shocked. He hugged the little boy tightly and glared at Shi Zhu angrily. At that moment, Shi Zhu felt that his gaze was as sharp as a knife, as if it was about to pierce into his eyes. His eyes were actually stabbing with pain.
Shi Zhu was shocked. He subconsciously took a step back, Years of battle intuition had told him, This mysterious youth in brocade robes was definitely the strongest and unrivaled opponent he had ever seen. However, before he could react, the youth in brocade robes suddenly reached out and touched the little boy’s chest. However, his hand gesture instantly stopped. It was as if he was looking for something but touched nothing. For a moment, his expression turned a little pale.
At this time, the surrounding Azure Snake Demon race had all regained their senses. One by one, they were extremely angry and rushed over. The youth in brocade robes had a cold expression on his face. However, looking at the little boy in his arms, he still gritted his teeth and carried the little boy into the sky. His body was in a hurry. It was obvious that the child’s injuries had already reached the point where he could not leave.
However, before leaving, the young man in brocade robes was in midair. He did not even turn his head. He only waved his sleeve and a golden palm flashed across the robe. Following that, a faint rumbling sound echoed in the courtyard. Shen Shi’s face changed as he stood in the courtyard. Soon, the ground beneath his feet seemed to tremble slightly.
He shouted and leapt to the side. Coincidentally, there were some Green Snake Demon race who had just rushed in. Shi Zhu immediately hid behind them, who had yet to react. In the next moment, a golden light flourished in the courtyard. A golden light burst out from the ground, mixed with the sound of wind and thunder. With a loud explosion, the golden light illuminated the entire courtyard and condensed into a huge golden sword in mid-air. The sound of rumbling echoed through the air, forcefully splitting the entire courtyard into two halves.
Blood splashed everywhere. Five or six people were killed in an instant by Azure Snake Demon race, who was standing in the courtyard. All of them had broken waist and fractures. It was horrible to see. Shen Shi reacted quickly and narrowly escaped a calamity. However, he was also struck by that powerful force. He was directly hit by the aftershocks of the golden light and fell down heavily. He felt his throat sweeten. With a wow, he spat out a large mouthful of blood.
The brocade-robed youth in midair snorted coldly. He took a deep look at the sorry-looking stone pig on the ground, but he did not dare to delay any longer. He turned around and flew away with the little boy.
As soon as he left, the remnant Azure Snake Demon race was instantly enraged. He shouted ferociously and chased after him. Not long after, only the injured Stone Pig remained in this courtyard, along with the mess and numerous corpses lying on the ground.
The smell of blood seemed to be still pervading the air.
Above the horizon, the battle that decided the two Demon race had just begun, attracting the attention of countless people.
Shen Shi struggled to sit up and clutched his chest tightly. He looked at the chaotic and bloody courtyard and gently panted. There was a trace of fear on his face. This was the first time he had truly witnessed the powerful power of a high-grade Demon race at close range. At least, it was so terrifying to him at this moment.
Above his head, the wind and clouds met. The battle between the two Earth Demons truly turned the world upside down. However, for some reason, Shen Shi didn’t seem to be interested at all. Instead, he glanced at the half-buried corpse of the Tiger Demon. After a moment of silence, he slowly stood up.
Shi Zhu also seemed to have been injured in the sword strike just now, and a lot of blood flowed out from his body. However, his expression seemed to be acceptable, as if it wasn’t a particularly serious fatal injury. Shen Shi felt a little relieved and walked towards Shi Zhu, wanting to go over and see him first.
After taking two steps, he suddenly paused, as if he had stepped on something. He lowered his head and looked down. He picked up a strange jade pearl from the dark soil beneath his feet. It glowed brightly and contained a faint green, yellow, and purple color. It emitted a gentle and beautiful light in the darkness.
He quietly looked at the pearl for a while, then stuffed it into his chest and got up to continue walking towards the stone pig.
