Chapter 317: Chapter 281: The Power of the Demon Suppressing Four Spirit Seal_1
The Demon Suppression Order trembled slightly, and Li Cheng knew that the higher-ups of the Demon-suppressing Department were sending a collective message.
According to Li Cheng’s understanding, it was equivalent to a group message.
The Demon Suppression Orders of Kong Lianqing and Yin Yue also trembled faintly, emitting a series of obscure glows.
“Cloud Bright City has seen disturbances from the Demon Race, with twelve villages already wiped out, and the City Guards unable to resolve the issue. We request the Demon-suppressing Envoys to take action. The difficulty of the mission is two stars.”
After infusing Divine Power into the Demon Suppression Order, this voice sounded from within.
A two-star difficulty mission indicated that the Demon Race being in question was likely in the early stages of the True God Realm.
If one accepted the mission and slew that member of the Demon Race, not only would one keep the spoils of war, there were also points awarded by the Demon-suppressing Department. These points were not only key for a Demon-suppressing Envoy to be promoted but could also be exchanged for cultivation resources.
“Cloud Bright City, could it be that guy?” Kong Lianqing approached, her brows slightly furrowed.
The clone of the Withered Bone Demon Monarch had escaped previously. Since its Divine Soul hadn’t fully merged with the Divine King Bone, logically it wouldn’t be able to cause disturbances for a while.
However, Kong Lianqing thought of a possibility—that the clone was accelerating the merging process by devouring others.
“If it’s the clone of the Withered Bone Demon Monarch, we simply won’t be able to handle it,” Li Cheng said.
Kong Lianqing shook her head. “Not necessarily. Although the Divine King Bone is strong, it definitely hasn’t fully merged yet. If we have the Soul Extinguishing Needle to assist us, we can totally extinguish its soul!”
Li Cheng felt that this woman had forgotten her wounds after they healed.
They nearly perished last time, and now she was ready to play with fire again?
If it was an ordinary member of the Demon Race, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad, but the clone of the Withered Bone Demon Monarch was adept in poison. Whether it was the Decaying Bone Demon Poison or the Desire Demon Poison, both were deadly!
“Elder, I’d like to request an advance of three Soul Extinguishing Needles and an Array Plate of the second level. I and the one-star Demon-suppressing Envoy Li Cheng will accept the mission!” Kong Lianqing quickly replied through the Demon Suppression Order, not giving Li Cheng a chance to refuse.
“Agreed!”
Upon receiving the response, Kong Lianqing turned to Yin Yue, “Xiao Yue, you stay here and read. I will go with your master and come back soon.”
Yin Yue blinked, “I want to go too!”
“Wait until you reach the Heaven God State.”
Not giving Yin Yue a chance, Kong Lianqing dragged Li Cheng out of the library.
Li Cheng’s face was filled with speechlessness; this was about risking their lives!
“Later, after you get the Array Plate, just inscribe the Hidden Spirit Array into it. As soon as we find that fellow, use the formation to suppress him, and I’ll clean him up with the Soul Extinguishing Needle!” Kong Lianqing bit on her silver teeth, seeming more like she was seeking revenge.
Li Cheng glanced at Kong Lianqing and nodded slightly. With things having come to this point, what else could he do?
However, Li Cheng thought that he should stay away from this beauty in the future. She liked playing with fire and getting too close could easily get one burned.
Soon, the two returned to the Affairs Hall of the Demon-suppressing Department, received their items, and headed towards the Transmission Array.
After several transfers, they were back in Cloud Bright City.
Upon exiting the Transmission Array, the Lord of Cloud Bright City was already awaiting them.
Seeing Kong Lianqing and Li Cheng, he obviously paused in surprise. It hadn’t even been a day, and they met again!
What surprised him even more was that Li Cheng was now wearing a one-star Demon-suppressing Envoy’s token.
“You start preparing the formation; I’ll talk to the Lord,” Kong Lianqing said, walking toward the Lord.
Li Cheng took out the Array Plate and nodded inwardly; this was convenient. With a blank Array Plate, he just needed to carve the necessary Array Patterns into it. Once activated, the Array would be initiated, and by infusing those Divine Artifacts into it, the Hidden Spirit Array would be complete, not much weaker than the one set up in Hidden Spirit Village previously.
In less than half an hour, Li Cheng had finished the job, and Kong Lianqing had already understood the situation thoroughly.
There were more than a hundred villages in the vicinity of Cloud Bright City, with twelve wiped out in one day. No new information had come through yet, but judging by the villages that had been destroyed, the next target of the Demon Creature should be North Business Village, 1.6 million miles away.
But the Demon Creature had not acted for several hours now, and its whereabouts were unknown; it might have changed its course.
It’s also possible it was busy digesting.
“I’ve scanned the area, and there’s no trace of the Demon Race’s aura within two million miles. We might need to visit those twelve villages; there might be some clues,” Kong Lianqing suggested.
The Demon Suppression Order has the function of detecting the aura of the Demon Race, with the detection range depending on the strength of the Divine Soul.
Li Cheng nodded, “I was thinking the same.”
Watching them leave, the Lord was somewhat anxious; he could sense that Kong Lianqing was at the peak of Heaven God State and Li Cheng was only at the early stages. Could such a team manage?
But then he remembered the special Divine Skills of the Demon-suppressing Envoys and reassured himself.
Before long, the two arrived at the first village that had been wiped out. What they saw was that three to four hundred villagers had all turned into dried corpses, with none spared.
“The residual aura isn’t that of the Withered Bone Demon Monarch’s clone, it’s some other Evil Cultivator. Their vigor and vitality are exceptionally strong; they should be of the Blood Tribe,” Li Cheng observed after examining the site.
Having seen the records in the Kongqian Library, Li Cheng was no longer uninformed.
“Regardless of what it is, we need to hurry and find it,” Kong Lianqing spoke, flying towards a broken hut.
There was an Array concealed within the broken hut. Li Cheng activated it, and inside was a hundred acres of Divine Field. Although the Divine Field was undamaged, there were no survivors.
This was the case for all the villages thereafter.
“Altogether, more than three thousand people, not sparing men, women, the elderly, or children—this Demon Creature truly deserves to die!” Kong Lianqing clenched her teeth, fury hard to quell.
Li Cheng nodded slightly. He had read about the Blood Tribe before in the Jade Slip and knew that they weren’t the vampires from the movies.
On the surface, the Blood Tribe was indistinguishable from ordinary people and could cultivate normally. Of course, their quickest way to increase their Cultivation was by devouring the fresh blood of others.
It was for this reason that the Blood Tribe’s vitality was incredibly robust and their physical bodies much stronger than that of humans, making them very difficult to kill.
