Cultivation: But Not a Game-Chapter 145 - 71: Mouse Demon Shows Its Might (Part 2)
According to the normal conversion rate of mana for a tier seven treasure of 200, it’s equivalent to consuming 20,000 mana.
This Mouse Demon has 160,000 mana, having used nearly half during the previous battle, leaving seventy to eighty thousand mana, which cannot withstand such terrible depletion.
Within one minute, nearly 20,000 was depleted, and with Ao Run’s relentless attack, the Mouse Demon’s mana was exhausted in just four minutes.
Seeing its mana running out, the fierce glow disappeared from the Mouse Demon’s eyes, replaced by clarity, and it spoke human words:
"Human, spare my life, I am willing to recognize you as my master and serve you."
Before Su Yu could respond, Ao Run reacted with strong opposition:
"He’s too smelly, if you agree, never touch me again."
Su Yu.....
He showed his stance with actions, wielding his swords even more fiercely.
Unwillingly, a fierce glow once again appeared in the Mouse Spirit’s eyes, but it turned to fear as the treasure glow shattered and the treasure pagoda fell, screaming sharply, it quickly transformed into its true form, becoming a massive white-furred rat, measuring sixty to seventy meters from head to tail.
Seizing the opportunity, Ao Run unleashed another wave of Meridian Cold Tide, freezing a layer of ice on the Mouse Demon’s body.
Then, with a wide-open mouth, the serpentine head bit into the Mouse Demon’s abdomen, chunks of flesh were torn off, and blood sprayed ten meters high.
The Mouse Demon let out a painful screech, unable to fight with just its physical body, it couldn’t compete with Ao Run and was bitten, squeaking in pain, constantly crying and begging for mercy.
Su Yu turned a deaf ear, continuing to slash furiously.
The mana-depleted Mouse Demon lasted only slightly over a minute before being beaten to death by one man and one serpent.
Streams of light gathered into six trophies, the sword lights rolled up and were collected back, he saw the tier seven pagoda among them.
Generally, a wild boss needs to be over level two hundred or have a unique template to likely drop a complete tier seven treasure, but this Mouse Demon and White Ape Demon King were special cases. They had high-grade treasures on them, so they could drop them.
After collecting the spoils, Su Yu quickly returned with Ao Run.
Returning to see the White Ape Demon King sitting still, and seeing there was still some time for an incense stick to burn, he turned to aid the first and fourth platoons in dealing with the leaders and demon soldiers.
The twin swords struck, wrapping around a level 98 Elephant Demon leader, slicing back and forth, leaving blood marks all over it, splattering blood everywhere.
Although the Elephant Demon had thick skin and flesh, its health, not exceeding a hundred levels, was only slightly over fifty thousand,
and within less than a minute, it was slashed over a thousand times, chopped to death.
Then, the sword edge turned to a new target, lashing at a Snake Demon, cutting it into hundreds of pieces in under a minute.
Within less than five minutes, they cooperated with the first and fourth platoons and Wei Xia’s group to eliminate remaining leaders of various sizes, leaving the demon soldiers negligible.
Even though the demon camp’s barracks continued to refresh demon soldiers, without generals or leaders to lead them, the threat was almost zero.
Su Yu deployed troops, letting the second and third platoons, who had rested for a while, rotate in to encircle and eliminate them, while the first and fourth platoons rested to recover.
Then, he quietly opened the Sea-Suppressing Pearl’s space, filling a large jug with icy, gelatinous spiritual water and gave it to Ao Run to relieve her internal injuries.
She took a big gulp, swallowing the jug of gelatinous liquid, letting out a long "Ah!" and turned upside down comfortably beside him.
After resting for less than a minute, the space where the White Ape Demon King sat began to tremble slightly, and a few subordinates who had been observing reported immediately:
"Captain, the Demon King is about to break free."
Su Yu immediately ordered the second platoon to surround the Demon King with the All Heaven Fiery Array, while the third platoon set up a Celestial One Profound Ice Array outside, with others hiding inside the arrays, himself, Wei Xia, He Shoucheng, and several platoon leaders staying on the outside.
Of course, Ao Run was there too; she was the main tank.
As time passed, the aura of the White Ape Demon King grew increasingly unstable.
At a certain moment, everyone heard a sound of shattering, the invisible ripple on the White Ape Demon King’s body exploded, and its eyes shot open, emitting a dazzling light like a searchlight illuminating the surroundings.
"Attack!"
At Su Yu’s command, the twin swords erupted like lightning, striking the chest of the White Ape Demon King, and the others immediately activated their treasures to strike down.
The Great White Ape King was momentarily stunned, then roared with anger:
"You are courting death!"
With a wave of its hand, an invisible force burst forth, causing the All Heaven Fiery Array to tremble violently, stretching but not breaking.
Su Yu’s twin swords flew into the array, circled around the Great White Ape King from left to right, and stabbed in.
The Great White Ape King ignored the twin swords, directly stomping down, its body rapidly expanded, transforming into an eighty-meter-tall giant ape within seconds, its fierce aura erupting like a volcano, its massive arms smashing down like mountains, instantly shattering the All Heaven Fiery Array.
Immediately, the ape arm raised again, smashing down.
"Boom!"
The thick layer of profound ice outside shattered.
Witnessing its overwhelming prowess, Su Yu decisively ordered:
"Everyone, retreat."
Then, looking towards Ao Run outside the array, he nodded his chin:
"Go!"
She scraped the ground with her dragon claws, leaving deep marks behind, and leaped skywards, pouncing into the Celestial One Profound Ice Array. Inside, a series of muffled clashes and Ao Run’s painful cries echoed.
Su Yu extended his senses inside to see Ao Run being stepped on by the Great White Ape King, its massive fist, as large as a building, pummeling her. It was a miserable sight.
The Great White Ape King was eighty meters tall, and Ao Run, around one hundred and fifty meters long, seemed longer but as a dragon, she wasn’t very bulky. In terms of physique, she couldn’t compare to the Great White Ape King, indicating the extraordinary nature of this Demon King’s bloodline; otherwise, it couldn’t have grown so large.
Ao Run encountered an opponent whose physical strength greatly surpassed hers for the first time, suffering a major setback due to her lack of caution.
Fortunately, she wasn’t fighting alone. Su Yu immediately took out the Profound Light Mirror, and the Great White Ape King lost focus for a second.
In that instant, Ao Run seized the opportunity to break free, flying to the White Ape Demon King’s chest, she unleashed a stream of Meridian Cold Tide right in its face.
The awakened White Ape Demon King shattered the ice on its face with a slap and reached for Ao Run.
Having learned from her mistake, Ao Run didn’t charge headlong this time, twisting her body around to the back of its head, unleashing a barrage of Ice Soul Divine Thunder. The frigid blasts froze large areas of its body, only to shatter moments later.
At this moment, Gu Zhiqiu shouted:
"Use immobilizing treasures to disrupt it."
Several subordinates at a distance pulled out ropes, chains, or treasure mirrors, aiming at it. Though the White Ape Demon King’s powerful physique made it difficult to immobilize, its movements were inevitably hindered, like stuttering.
Seizing the chance, everyone unleashed their various treasures, pounding away.
He Shoucheng wielded the Palm Leaf Fan, waving out hundreds of over-meter-long Wind Blades.
Wei Xia went all out, summoning a hundred acres of storm clouds, and called down hundreds of lightning bolts.
Everyone used their abilities, and for a moment, countless treasure lights engulfed the over eighty-meter-tall White Ape Demon King.
However, this situation didn’t last long. With a shield of demonic power blocking many treasures, the White Ape Demon King charged out against the overwhelming attacks, flipping out a huge banner decorated with various beast and demon figures, and planted it into the ground. A black vortex surfaced on the flag, and countless demon souls and essences spiraled out, encircling the White Ape Demon King.
These demon souls and essences weren’t of high level, similar to the demon soldiers, ranging from level sixty to ninety, with a few over a hundred occasionally visible.
After summoning these demon souls, the White Ape Demon King did not immediately launch an attack but took a deep breath, swallowing them whole. Surrounding in black mist, its body rapidly expanded, soon exceeding a hundred meters high.
At this point, the various low-level control treasures could no longer affect it, and with demon souls accompanying its every move, it looked all the more terrifying.
"Boom!"
With just one punch, the Celestial One Profound Ice Array shattered.
A massive hand outstretched, capturing several flag-wielding players who couldn’t escape in time, crushing them.
"Everyone retreat!"
He also transmitted to Ao Run:
"You retreat too!"
Afraid of her stubbornness, he hurriedly added a word:
"Obey!"
Then, soared into the air, opening a distance, again using the Profound Light Mirror attempting to distract it. The White Ape Demon King barely paused, disregarding this tier six treasure, but the action caught its attention, prompting it to punch down, unleashing a violent black energy column across the sky, accompanied by a series of explosive sounds.
