The Great Wild God - Chapter 485
Chapter 485 Rakshasa Again
Four to five thousand kilometers north of Xi Ling, there were glaciers and snow plains. Apart from the ferocious Snow Wolves, Snow Apes, and other exotic beasts, it was already difficult to find traces of the Wildlands tribes’ existence.
On a lonely hill covered in ice and snow, the four sects had built a beacon fire tower, but it had already been destroyed.
There were traces of sharp claws on the broken wall, and more than a dozen corpses of magical creatures were lying at the foot of Lonely Ridge. Apart from the three disciples who escaped, the other disciples who were in charge of guarding this place had all become food in the bellies of the demons.
It was more than 40,000 kilometers from the west foot of Zhouwu Mountain to the north foot of Tushan Mountain, In order to ensure that Mountain Parasol could keep track of the movements of the demons in Darkness Ridge, the four sects immediately built hundreds of beacon fire towers in the glacial snowy plains between Zhou Wushan and Tu Shan, and sent a small number of disciples to guard them. At the same time, they were also prepared for the demons in Darkness Ridge to suddenly bypass Zhou Wushan, cross the vast snowy plains, and forcefully attack Cang Lan …
After the Darkness Ridge earthquake, the various sects of the Xuandu Sect began to act vigilantly, but the magical creatures also moved frequently. Obviously, they would not passively defend Darkness Ridge and the other sects of the Cloud Continent Sect to gather a large army to eliminate them.
The Fire Beacon Tower that the four sects had built on the vast snowy plains had often been the target of small groups of magical creatures during this period of time.
There were quite a number of beacon towers. The four sects could not set up sealing-level formations for every beacon tower. During this period of time, beacon towers had been destroyed repeatedly and disciples suffered heavy casualties.
Chen Xun stood on a cliff covered in ten thousand years of ice. His divine sense extended out, and he could only sense the presence of Snow Wolf, Snow Ape, and other exotic beasts. He didn’t know where the demon that attacked the Beacon Flame Tower had already circled.
Qing Xuan and Jiang Bingyun stood beside Chen Xun, a faint purple profound light protecting their bodies, blocking the cold wind outside.
Chi Hai unfurled his enormous dark golden bone wings and floated high up in the sky like a black cloud. His demon pupils emitted a faint light as he scanned every inch of land within a radius of a hundred kilometers.
Ah Qing’s long silk-like hair trembled as he raised his head to the sky and roared. He seemed to have caught a trace of an odd aura as he pounced down the cliff. His enormous demon body transformed into several afterimages in mid-air. In the next instant, it was already a thousand feet away.
There was a snow ape hiding in the forest. He thought that there was meat to eat, but when he approached the forest, he sensed something was amiss. He stopped and no longer dared to press towards Lonely Ridge.
Chen Xun and the others were naturally disdainful of attacking the “weak” snow ape.
Even the golden wolf that had returned to its original form only sneezed, indicating that it had no interest in desolate beasts like the snow ape.
When Ah Qing traveled to the Wilderness in his early years, he had suffered the bitterness of the Snow Ape. At this moment, he still held grudges in his heart. After following everyone north, every time he encountered an exotic beast like the Snow Ape, he would rush out to hunt it down and eat it to his heart’s content.
This snow ape had cultivated into a demon core, or was originally the overlord of this vast expanse of snow. However, even if an exotic beast like the snow ape formed a core, its combat strength was still limited. Chen Xun was not afraid that Ah Qing would suffer a loss if he rushed out.
Creatures like Azure Luan and Kui Beasts had extremely long lifespans, and their growth was extremely slow. However, suppressing three or five Core Formation demonic beasts was not a problem.
Chen Xun didn’t care if Ah Qing rushed out to hunt or if he wanted to continue on his journey. Suddenly, his mind trembled, and he saw the Fire-Winged Demonic Ape that had transformed into a brown-clothed youth frowning.
There was an extremely faint aura hidden behind the Snow Ape. He and the Fire Winged Demonic Ape had actually been concealed. If Ah Qing hadn’t rushed out, the Snow Ape would have been frightened and wanted to flee. They wouldn’t have been able to detect that the foreign object had actually submerged within a thousand feet.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Xun changed from extreme silence to extreme motion. The afterimage was still on the cliff, but his entire body seemed to have tore through the void as he flew out. The air rippled along his path of advancement. Only the snow on the ground was not affected in the slightest, and not even a single grain of snow had been rolled up.
A demonic creature with a petite demonic body rushed out of the forest like a wisp of smoke. Ah Qing pounced on it fiercely and spat out a stream of azure flames that swept towards the demonic creature.
This demon had a pair of bone wings covered in green and black scales. It suddenly closed, blocking the green flame flow. However, this demon was far from as powerful as it had imagined. The bone wings were instantly torn apart by the green flame flow that Ah Qing spat out.
Chen Xun reached out and grabbed the magical creature before Ah Qing could rip it apart.
This demon was also considered one of the Winged Demons, but its bone wings were not like the Scarlet Sea or its sharp claws. Its body was smaller than a human’s, and it was more like a petite woman covered in green and black scales. Its chest and buttocks had attractive curves, and its demon pupils were scarlet red.
“What kind of demon is this? Is it a type of wing demon? It’s not as strong as I thought.” Jiang Bingyun and Qing Xuan rushed over and asked in surprise.
This female magical creature’s combat strength seemed very weak, but it possessed the ability to restrain its demonic aura. Even Chen Xun and the Fire Winged Monster Ape had been concealed. If the demons used this magical creature to bypass Zhou Wushan’s defensive line and infiltrate the northern and northwestern regions, who could be prepared?
Chen Xun performed an incantation gesture, and several wisps of ghostly light shot out from his palm. In an instant, they condensed into hundreds of black light runes, and then they gathered into a ghostly magic seal that flowed and pierced into the space between the demon’s eyebrows.
As the demon creature quietly and ferociously twitched twice, its soul was torn apart by the Dark Sun Shaking Divine Demon Seal. Chen Xun quickly found everything he wanted to know from the surging flood of memories.
“There’s a Rakshasa general sneaking into the snowy plains. This Little Winged Demon is the servant demon he used to explore the path!”
Hearing this, Jiang Bingyun was suddenly shocked. All the Rakshasa Devil Generals she knew were Heavenly Yao level magical creatures.
When the disciples of the four sects attacked the Demon Array in the Thousand Demon Sand Sea, six green-faced and fanged Rakshasa Demon Generals appeared. Each of them was a hundred feet tall and was exactly the same as the Rakshasa Demon Ghost condensed from the Demon Building Blood Flag with endless Demon Demon Qi. No one knew how many cultivators in the Northwest Domain had lost such a tyrannical Devil Hand.
Back then, Jiang Bin and more than a hundred black-armored generals had formed a mountain-river battle formation. Even with the Metropolitan Sky Demon Arrest Flag increasing its power, it was unable to withstand the combined attacks of the four Rakshasa Demon Generals.
At this time, there was actually a Rakshasa Demon General who had bypassed Zhou Wushan’s defensive line and sneaked into the depths of the snowy plains. It should be aimed at Cang Lan. If Cang Lan was careless, it was hard to imagine how heavy the casualties would be.
“Surround him?” Qing Xuan asked.
All Heavenly Yao level magical creatures were incomparably powerful. It could be said that they weren’t any weaker than peak Human Dharma Realm experts. With Chen Xun and the Fire Winged Demonic Ape present, they naturally didn’t fear the Rakshasa Demonic General. However, if they were to be alarmed, it wouldn’t be easy to keep this Rakshasa Demonic General alive.
“No, the Rakshasa Demon General has left a spiritual imprint on the little winged demon’s soul. Since I tore the little winged demon’s soul apart just now, the Rakshasa Demon General should already be alert,” Chen Xun said. “I’ll go over with Crimson Sea first, or we might not be able to scare him away!”
Chen Xun stepped onto the giant wing of the Scarlet Sea and flew three hundred kilometers north. He saw the traces of the Rakshasa Demon General.
The Rakshasa Demon General had clearly long since realized that there would be humans chasing after him. He held a black iron halberd in his hand and stood at the top of the snow ridge, as if a huge black rock was pressing down on the ice and snow.
Above the Rakshasa Demon General’s head were two sharp horns covered in spiral patterns, like black horned spears. Two demon eyes flickered with a phosphorescence jade light, and the third demon eye in the middle of his forehead was also opening at this moment. It was shining with crimson fiendish light like blood as it looked towards Chen Xun.
Demon Eyes flickered. Even from 40 to 50 miles away, Chen Xun could clearly see that the tiny space around the Demon Eyes seemed to be collapsing endlessly, and it was constantly forming.
The Nether Demon Eye was a fleshly body magic treasure cultivated by the Rakshasa Demon Eye. Even though it was far from cultivating the Heaven Devouring Earth Divine Ability, it still had the ability to peep through the heavens and search for the secluded.
The moment he looked into the Nether Demon Eye, Chen Xun almost felt that the Rakshasa Demon General had seen through his internal organs. Fortunately, he hadn’t thought of surrounding this demon with the Fire Winged Demon Ape and the others. Otherwise, he would have frightened it away before he could get close.
Before the Battle of the Thousand Devil Sand Sea, more than a hundred Heavenly Demons had invaded Cloud Continent.
Although at that time, these magical creatures had only been able to pass through the spatial passageway through self-destructing Demonic Essence Fiend Pills, after so many years, most of them must have recovered their cultivation.
At that time, the four sects didn’t have much strength and couldn’t convince the Xuandu Sect that God-controller Mansion was suffering from a thunderous Darkness Ridge. At this moment, it could be said that he was raising a tiger, but Chen Xun could only accept this fact.
Chen Xun did not hesitate and immediately fled with Chi Haizhe towards the southwest.
The Rakshasa Demon General was the core and strongest battle power in front of the Demon Marshal, Crimson Flame Ming Zuo. He was not an idiot. How could he not be prepared?
Chen Xun naturally couldn’t directly charge forward. That would be too unusual, and it might shock him away.
He wanted to show that his enemy was weak and lure him into the encirclement formed by him and the Fire Ape Demon Ape, but he could not directly turn around and flee.
In the southwest, there was a medium-sized fortress set up by the four sects. It was one of the most important battles between Tu Shan and Zhou Wushan. At this moment, Chen Xun was directly fleeing in the southwest. Everything seemed logical.
Seeing Chen Xun and Chi Hai fleeing towards the southwest, the Rakshasa Demon General waved his giant halberd, and a black light rose from beneath the stone pillars, wrapping around the Rakshasa Demon General’s body and chasing after him.
“My mother!” Chi Hai let out a strange cry.
The Rakshasa Demon General apparently mistook Chi Hai for a flying demon puppet controlled by Chen Xun. A wisp of his faint demonic sense locked onto his aura tightly. Chi Hai felt like a giant mountain was pressing down on his soul, and his Winged Evasion divine ability was suppressed, unable to be executed, waiting for him to desperately shake the Bone Demon.
Chen Xun felt that something was wrong and immediately poured his True Essence into his feet, causing the Crimson Sea to fall directly into the forest below.
For some reason, Chi Hai could only take advantage of the situation to roll in the dense cedar forest, causing trees to collapse and snow to fly.
Chen Xun knew that if the Rakshasa Demon General mistook the Crimson Sea for a puppet he had refined, then the divine sense between him and the Crimson Sea would not be able to withstand the suppression of the Rakshasa Demon General’s divine sense.
In the blink of an eye, the Rakshasa Demon General had already chased after Chen Xun within twenty kilometers. At this moment, he locked his demonic sense onto Chen Xun, raised the giant halberd that flowed with a faint light, and threw it at Chen Xun’s back.
Chen Xun felt a tremendous pressure when his soul was locked by the Rakshasa Demon General. He felt as if the heavens and earth had instantly dimmed by a few points. He thought to himself, Perhaps this was the ability of the Netherworld Demon Eye. Otherwise, a Rakshasa Demon would not be able to give him such a great pressure.
The giant halberd traveled twenty kilometers across the space, giving off the feeling that it was only an instant, just enough for Chen Xun to spit out the Profound Star Sword Qi and condense it into a sword.
A streak of azure-masked sword light shot out from Chen Xun’s palm, blocking the Black Iron Demonic Halberd and shattering it into countless streaks of light.
This azure-masked sword light was not the sword light emitted by the Spirit Sword using True Essence. It was the Profound Star Sword Qi that had been refined by Chen Xun for more than ten years and had completely fused with Chen Xun’s divine soul. The moment it was shattered, it returned to Chen Xun’s palm and formed a Spirit Sword. It flew out once again and collided with the Black Iron Halberd.
