Absolute Death Game-Chapter 450 - 48: Evil God

Sword Control Technique—Nine Heavens Thunder Fire Sword! As Xiao Buli shouted, the Glowing Light Sword shot into the clouds with a whoosh, and in less than two seconds, it came back down. But this time, Glowing Light’s body was flashing with bright white lightning. Xiao Buli pointed with his hand, and the electricity on Glowing Light’s body struck like lightning, cracking sharply between him and the cave entrance. Having suffered greatly from this move just moments ago, the Serpent Demons naturally weren’t foolish. Seeing the lightning coming, those who could dodge twisted their bodies and swam aside. Those who were too close in the inner circle were blasted to bits without a trace.

As the lightning had just fallen, Xiao Buli immediately ordered the giant python. As a pet, the giant python was telepathically linked with Xiao Buli, moving as if they were one and the same, reacting swiftly. It almost chased the tail of the lightning and in an instant reached the edge of the big pit.

This stirred up an unprecedented resistance among the snake swarm. The screams of the Serpent Demons were shrill, piercing through the eardrums like the first howl of a child robbed of its beloved toy.

Then, displaying a speed never shown before, they gathered in the path where the giant python was advancing. Claws and poison arrows rained down on the giant python’s body. Some frenzied Serpent Demons even used their claws to start climbing on the giant python’s body.

But unfortunately for them, the Lava Giant Python possessed the Passive Skill Lesser Dragon Blood, which negated much of the damage from toxins and acids. A poison arrow hitting its body only caused a few drops of health points to fall, which was like a tickle to the Lava Giant Python with its tens of thousands of health points. The climbing Serpent Demons were wholly disregarded by the giant python whose twisting body alone was powerful enough to fling them to the ground. But those Serpent Demons were insane, jumping back up after falling and immediately throwing themselves into even fiercer battle.

Xiao Buli stood atop the giant python’s head, looking down at the struggling Serpent Demons below as if watching ants. At that moment, a thrill passed through his mind; he knew it was the feeling of the python, suggesting a telepathic link as if the python also had a great interest in whatever was inside the pit.

The giant python opened its jaws wide and let out an excited hiss, its movements speeding up below. It was clear that whatever was in the pit was something it greatly desired. Xiao Buli suddenly had the feeling that this object might be the same as the Demon Star mentioned in the story Jingci had told him. If he remembered correctly, Jingci had mentioned that within the Barbaric Wastelands there was an ancient Barbarian Country. Long ago, a Demon Star had fallen upon this ancient land, and thereafter, monsters roamed, and Demon Beasts wreaked havoc, extinguishing the civilization of the ancient country. If his bold guess was right, what was inside the pit might be part of that very Demon Star.

At this thought, Xiao Buli’s heart palpitated. He still remembered that Jingci, using a Demon Star Fragment, had transformed Maoqiu beyond recognition, not only in appearance but also in combat strength, undergoing a qualitative mutation. If what he was about to approach was the main body of the Demon Star, wouldn’t the effect be terrifyingly high? It would be particularly suitable for his fierce Lava Giant Python pet to enjoy. With this in mind, he leaped down from the python’s head and pointed toward the pit. Without hesitation, the giant python plunged in.

But clearly, he wasn’t the only one coveting the Demon Star. Before he had appeared, these Serpent Demons had evidently been accompanying the Demon Star for a long time. Although it was unknown if they used to behave this way, one could surmise that the Demon Star was of great importance to them.

All the still-living Serpent Demons moved with the speed of lightning, all racing back. The ones from the edge of the pit had earlier tried to resist Xiao Buli, but now more Serpent Demons returned in defense, making the giant python’s movements seem somewhat sluggish.

Yet Xiao Buli, no longer a rookie, had no weak hand when it came to slaying his enemies. Pulling out an Obsidian Crystal Coffin from his pack, he channeled his True Qi into the coffin. The pure white True Qi streamed in and immediately became distinct inside the coffin. As the True Qi traveled, the coffin emitted an unsettling tremble. Eventually, the white light vanished and the coffin in Xiao Buli’s hand darkened, as if it could absorb the surrounding light. With a heavy push of his hand, the coffin fell to the ground. It trembled and in the blink of an eye, it grew as large as a real coffin, two or three meters high, emanating a chilling aura of death and standing tall on the edge of the pit.

"Open," Xiao Buli shouted.

With a crack, the lid of the coffin flew open. Clouds of black fluff-like mist emerged non-stop from the coffin, thick and thin, so no one could see clearly what was behind the elusive fog. It seemed to lead into the abyss, and suddenly, a black Corpse Evil with sharp claws like hooks emerged from it. Its figure was initially hazy, then became more concrete. Its fur shined with a dark light, and half its face looked like it was made of twisted tree roots, expressionless and terrifying. The eyes were just black pupils, clearly showing that the Corpse Evil had not a shred of its own consciousness.

This black Corpse Evil was a type of Zombie, a product of the Obsidian Crystal Coffin. After being activated by True Qi, the coffin would produce one zombie every ten seconds. These zombies followed the orders of the coffin’s owner, and their combat strength was much higher than the Talisman Soldiers Xiao Buli had summoned before. However, since creating the coffin, this was the first opportunity Xiao Buli had to use it. Although unsure of its exact power, the cool appearance alone was impressive enough.
