Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 582 - 326: Snatching Monsters? Counteraction_3

But now it seems that the three bald vultures miscalculated. Not only did they fail to help the bull-headed demon escape, but they also collided head-on with the Green Roc team and got brutally beaten up by Wei Long.

Glancing at Lu Yu standing on the bull-headed demon's shoulder, Ye Qingzhou secretly spat twice, thinking, "The Green Roc team really struck lucky, to encounter a demon that was defeated and suppressed by other strong individuals."

As for the bull-headed demon's miserable condition, Ye Qingzhou had no thought that it was caused by someone from the Green Roc team.

He believed the most likely scenario was that the Green Roc team encountered a Core Formation Realm demon severely injured and temporarily suppressed by passing strong individuals.

Such occurrences happen frequently on the outer battlefield. Most of the time, veteran Core Formation Realm powerhouses have the capability to defeat Core Formation Realm demons but cannot completely end their lives or extinguish the demonic qi within them.

They can only suppress the severely injured Core Formation Realm demon in place, and later have someone bring specialized spiritual treasures for handling.

From a distance, Ye Qingzhou also couldn't clearly see what Lu Yu was holding, but he could tell it was a cylindrical object, instinctively thinking it was the Demon-Suppressing Cone.

To completely exterminate a Core Formation Realm demon, one needs either absolute power to obliterate its blood and demonic qi, or use grinding techniques akin to turning an iron rod into a needle, gradually eradicating all the demonic qi within it.

Now, in Ye Qingzhou's eyes, Lu Yu is depending on the power of the Demon-Suppressing Cone to eradicate the demonic qi within the bull-headed demon.

Bang~ In a moment of distraction, Ye Qingzhou was intensely attacked, with the two Void Rings maintaining his defense constantly vibrating, and the air before him warping and becoming blurry.

The false spatial barrier of the Void Ring was about to be broken. Ye Qingzhou was startled awake, regaining his senses, and controlled the Void Ring to unleash attacks, forcing the bald vulture's clone to retreat, hurriedly ascending to gain distance.

A true spatial barrier requires power capable of breaking space to be destroyed.

Ye Qingzhou's Divine Soldiers, the Void Ring, are only in the initial stage and still can't form a true spatial barrier; otherwise, he would be virtually invincible in the Core Formation Realm.

Among those in the Core Formation Realm who can break space relying on their power, there are very few.

Once, Lu Yu encountered a powerhouse—Sahloi, who nearly achieved this, but Sahloi's power was already infinitely close to the Divination Realm, and combined with the Power of the Sand God, that was the pinnacle of Core Formation Realm power, with no further progress.

Beyond this strength, one is not in the Core Formation Realm but a Divination Realm Venerable.

Ye Qingzhou distanced himself from the bald vulture's clone, which was exactly what the bald vulture's clone wanted. It no longer paid attention to the airborne Ye Qingzhou and charged towards Lu Yu.

Boom boom boom~ With its neck stretched straight, the bald vulture's clone's beak, sharp like a gun tip, darted straight towards Lu Yu.

Lu Yu unhesitatingly released the power he had condensed in his palms, the power of ice and fire transformed into twin dragons, striking the charging bald vulture's clone from both sides.

Boom! The twin dragons converged, forming a spiritual qi mushroom cloud several meters in diameter, as ice and fire collided, unleashing destructive power.

Woo~ A strong wind erupted, scattering the half-risen mushroom cloud. Covered with bruises, its entire body scorched yet emitting cold air, the bald vulture's clone appeared in Lu Yu's vision.

Lu Yu could still see the ice shards and sparks lingering inside the bald vulture's clone's wounds, the power of ice and fire still rampaging within its body, relentlessly ravaging it.

Ye Qingzhou looked at Lu Yu with a trace of seriousness in his eyes; the power of that previous strike was not to be taken lightly.

"Though the power is strong, after using this move, he probably doesn't have much spiritual power left," Ye Qingzhou guessed that it was Lu Yu's ultimate move, likely able to be used only once or twice.

Woo~ A breaking wind sound was heard, and a dragon broke through the air. As it approached Ye Qingzhou, the dragon dispersed into several beams of light, which then gathered into a form revealing the other members of the Black Snake team.

Qiu Ruohua glanced around at the battlefield, frowned, and asked, "Where's the three bald vultures?"

Ye Qingzhou replied, "They divided into three."

No need for further explanation, Qiu Ruohua understood the situation instantly, and seeing the bull-headed demon standing still, she said, "Don't worry about the three bald vultures, let's kill the bull-headed demon first. It's already heavily wounded, with most of its demonic qi dissipated, making it easier to kill."

"But... the Green Roc team encountered it first?" Ye Qingzhou hesitated.

Qiu Ruohua spoke, "The trial has no rule of first come, first serve. Whoever kills the target first passes."

Since she said this, Ye Qingzhou hesitated no more and rushed towards the bull-headed demon.

Qiu Ruohua led the other team members, forming a flying dragon formation closely following behind.

From afar, Lu Yu heard their conversation. The two didn't make any effort to avoid him, discussing how to snatch his victory right in front of his face.

Suddenly filled with anger, Lu Yu glanced at the bull-headed demon's head. The bull-headed demon stiffly turned its head, looking down at Lu Yu, seemingly mocking him.

"Since you want it, then take it!"

Lu Yu forcefully pulled out the Demon-Breaking Saber embedded in the bull-headed demon's neck. The wound had already ceased bleeding, as the bull-headed demon's blood had long been drained. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Not only that, but the demon-breaking power spread throughout the bull-headed demon's body was also extracted by Lu Yu, drawing out orange-yellow meridians resembling veins from the bull-headed demon's neck, consumed entirely by the Demon-Breaking Saber.

The orange pattern on the blade of the Demon-Breaking Saber transformed, extending and spreading from the blade to the edge, leaving marks resembling cracks.

Lu Yu clearly felt that the power within the Demon-Breaking Saber had grown stronger.

Each strand of demonic qi obliterated by the demon-breaking power became growth experience for the Demon-Breaking Saber, making it stronger.

After Lu Yu had drawn out its demon-breaking power, the bull-headed demon's massive wound from shoulder to chest quickly healed. The severed arm's wound, with granulation constantly wriggling, produced a new thick arm breaking through the granulation.

"Moo!" The bull-headed demon roared furiously, decisively slapping its shoulder heavily, crushing Lu Yu like swatting a mosquito against it.

Unfortunately, as it prepared to strike, Lu Yu had already left the spot. The bull-headed demon slapped its shoulder solidly.

The shoulder, bearing the slap, collapsed visibly, showing how much force it exerted, intending to crush Lu Yu with a single slap.

Crack~ The collapsed shoulder inflated as if blown, soon returning to normal. The bull-headed demon moved its shoulder and gazed around.

Not seeing Lu Yu's figure, it turned to angrily glare at Ye Qingzhou and Qiu Ruohua rushing towards it, regarding them as equally vile in its eyes, and charged at them without a word.

Boom boom boom~ As its hooves stamped on the ground, the earth trembled. The bull-headed demon, in its wild run, suddenly bent down to grab the bald vulture's clone on the ground, casually crumpling it into a ball and fiercely hurling it at the airborne members of the Black Snake team.

The bald vulture's clone found it completely unexpected, utterly unprepared.

Boom! "Gah~" A scream abruptly stopped, the bald vulture's clone exploded into countless ice shard fragments scattering everywhere, with a baffled-eyed vulture head flying off who knows how far.

Ye Qingzhou also didn't expect that he could shatter the bald vulture's clone with just one hit, his face smeared with ice shards.
