Divine-level Base-Chapter 69: Evil Jade Horse

"Stand down, Shu Feng! Tell your partner to stand down, too! Or I’ll kill him! This man is an innocent civilian, completely unrelated to any of this! If you want him to live, you’ll stop resisting!" 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Xu Gang grabbed Zhao Tie, whose leg had been torn off, and flashed a savage grin at Shu Feng and You Meng.

"Help me! Sister Tian Tian, help me! I don’t want to die!"

Pain and desperation filled Zhao Tie’s eyes as he let out a bloodcurdling scream.

"Zhao Tie!"

Seeing Zhao Tie with his missing leg, tears streamed down Guo Tiantian’s face, her heart aching with regret.

BANG!

A gunshot rang out. A huge, bloody hole was blasted through Xu Gang’s chest, and a torrent of blood spewed from the wound.

A faint, dark glimmer of light faded from the [Hei Ya] in You Meng’s hand.

"King of Strange Evil, great King of Strange Evil, grant me your Power!"

His face contorted with rage, Xu Gang pulled out a statue of the King of Strange Evil and screamed maniacally as a stream of black Power of Void Demon flowed into his body. The muscle tissue in the bloody hole on his chest began to squirm, regenerating at a startling rate.

"Hahaha! See that? This is the Power of the King of Strange Evil, the Power of a Void Demon King! With this Power, I can rule the world and slaughter every last one of you!"

Cackling maniacally, Xu Gang tightened his grip, snapping Zhao Tie’s neck.

With his neck broken, Zhao Tie’s body trembled once before falling to the ground, lifeless.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

You Meng’s eyes turned to ice as she fired shot after shot at Xu Gang.

"It’s useless! I’m invincible!"

A crimson light flared in Xu Gang’s eyes. He let out a savage laugh and held out his right hand, from which a black, fleshy wing erupted to form a shield before him.

The bullets slammed into the black, fleshy wing, sending up sprays of blood. The small wounds they created healed at a rate visible to the naked eye.

’Damn it! Now I have to write another report. I hate writing reports!’

You Meng muttered to herself, quickly swapping in a Demon-Breaking Bullet. She infused it with Spiritual Power and pulled the trigger.

BANG!

A black ray of light tore through the air. In the next instant, it pierced the fleshy wing, burrowed into Xu Gang’s body, and blew open a bloody hole.

"No! The pain! It’s killing me! So much pain!"

The moment the Demon-Breaking Bullet entered his body, Xu Gang’s face twisted in agony. He began to thrash and roll wildly on the ground, letting out bloodcurdling wails.

Demon-Breaking Bullets contain gold essence, making them a potent poison to Void Demons and those corrupted by them. Once inside the body, the pain is excruciating—an agony that no Void Demon can withstand.

"What a useless waste. You couldn’t even drain the Guardian Flame’s strength. Your only purpose is to become my meal and help me recover some of my own."

A handsome young man with short hair and a cold, cruel gaze appeared suddenly behind Xu Gang. He plunged a clawed hand into Xu Gang’s chest, ripped out his heart, and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing greedily.

"Mom... Mom...!"

Xu Gang looked at the eerie, floating female Ghost in a red dress behind him. He coughed up a mouthful of blood as a flicker of clarity, filled with regret, returned to his crimson eyes. Then he collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

The female Ghost in the red dress also flickered, her form growing indistinct.

"Your son gave me his heart. Why don’t you join him in my stomach for a family reunion?"

After devouring Xu Gang’s heart, two Ghost Horns sprouted from the short-haired young man’s head. Bulging veins crisscrossed his face, and he was wreathed in tendrils of black Power of Void Demon, radiating a terrifying aura.

"What’s going on?"

"Why are so many people dead?!"

"Help!"

"..."

The moment the female Ghost in the red dress was devoured, the members of the Qidemon Cult—their eyes previously glowing with savage light—snapped back to their senses. They began screaming in terror, scared witless as they scattered in every direction.

"Shu Feng, watch out! That’s a Ghost-devouring Demon! They’re a terrifying type of Void Demon that can devour humans, Ghosts, and other powerful beings to restore their strength and evolve! Judging by the fluctuations of its Power of Void Demon, this one is a Spirit Master Level Ghost-devouring Demon!"

A grim look flashed in You Meng’s eyes. She slammed a 20-round magazine of Demon-Breaking Bullets into her gun and opened fire on the Ghost-devouring Demon.

A solemn look crossed Shu Feng’s face as he commanded, "Go. Tear him to pieces!"

Savage light flared in the eyes of the eighty Black Dog Illusion Demons as they charged madly toward the Ghost-devouring Demon.

"That’s right. I am Xie Yuma, a noble of the esteemed Devouring Ghost Demon Clan! You wretched members of the Human Race are only fit to be fodder for my evolution. Come on, then! Become stepping stones to my glory, fodder for my evolution!"

Xie Yuma grinned savagely. His body flickered, moving as fast as Lightning to instantly evade You Meng’s gunfire.

Xie Yuma easily dodged every single Demon-Breaking Bullet.

’So fast!’

Shu Feng fired twenty shots in a row at Xie Yuma, emptying an entire magazine of Demon-Breaking Bullets without so much as grazing him.

In the span of a few breaths, Xie Yuma crossed the hundred-meter distance to appear before You Meng.

"Meteor Sword Technique!"

A cold glint flashed in You Meng’s eyes as she executed the Meteor Sword Technique—a renowned Superior Swordsmanship from the Black Tortoise Realm. Her blade moved like a shooting star, its light aimed squarely for Xie Yuma’s vital points.

"Decent Swordsmanship. A pity you’re too weak!"

Xie Yuma let out a chilling laugh. Demon Light flashed from his fingertips as he jabbed his hand into the densest part of the sword’s afterglow.

CLANG!

With a crisp ring, the dense web of sword light shattered. Xie Yuma followed through with a kick to You Meng’s side. The terrifying Power of the blow sent her flying over ten meters.

A dozen Black Dog Illusion Demons immediately lunged in You Meng’s direction, forming a protective wall in front of her.

"A Summoner’s greatest weakness is their frail body. That’s why this goblin never leaves your side. Once I kill you, it’ll all be over!"

Xie Yuma grinned savagely, twisted his body, and lunged directly for Shu Feng.

The King of Goblins guarding Shu Feng took a step forward, a vicious glint in its eyes. The [Blood Butcher] in its hand became a streak of crimson light as it swung viciously at Xie Yuma.

CLANG!

Xie Yuma caught the King of Goblins’ axe blade with his bare claws, but the force of the blow still knocked him back several steps.

"A mere, wretched goblin! Even the King of Goblins is nothing but fodder to me!"

With a chilling smile, Xie Yuma’s figure flickered, creating three Residual Shadows that lunged at Shu Feng from three different directions, bypassing the King of Goblins.
