The First Immortal of Destiny-Chapter 659: Attack and Destroy the Near Sea Demon Cave_1

More than ten days later, Shen Mo felt it was almost time and shook the Soul Refining Flag, calling back all the Demon Soul Generals.

His soul wasn't overly burdened, but he needed to reserve some capacity for refining new minor Heavenly Demon Soul Generals and collecting the souls of Class IV Big Heavenly Demons in the demonic cave in the future.

After returning to the Soul Refining Flag, the Ghost Bride and other Demon Soul Generals, who had devoured a large amount of blood food, began to transform and upgrade. The overall aura of the flag also grew increasingly dense and malevolent!

Soon, the blood flag returned to silence.

Shen Mo held the Soul Refining Flag, carefully sensing the changes in the strength of the Demon Soul Generals within.

After this feast, ten Demon Soul Generals, including the Ghost Bride, the Possession Ghost Yang Chengxiong, and the Thousand-eyed Demon, had all advanced to the late-stage Class IV Realm.

This was intentionally orchestrated by Shen Mo. After all, his Soul Splitting Rune corresponded to the three souls and seven spirits and could only simultaneously create ten manifestations.

If the lower-tier Demon Soul Generals also advanced to late-stage Class IV, the top-tier Demon Soul Generals like the Ghost Bride would find it difficult to control them, disrupting the stable hierarchy Shen Mo had painstakingly constructed.

Additionally, over twenty mutant Demon Soul Generals were promoted to the early and middle stages of Class IV, and more than a hundred advanced to the late-stage and peak of Class III.

The rest were peak Class II minor Heavenly Demon Soul Generals, their auras now somewhat denser and more substantial than before.

However, without Demon-corrupting other creatures, minor Heavenly Demon Soul Generals, like Native Heaven Demons, fundamentally couldn't advance to Class III. Previously, most of the blood food obtained from hunting Sea Beasts was offered up to the Class III and Class IV Demon Soul Generals!

Thus, if there were no methods like Lin Zhaozai's specifically targeting Demon Soul Generals, this flag alone would be enough to wipe out any major immortal sect in the Heaven Patrolling Zone that lacked a Heavenly Monarch.

"The Demon Soul Generals have upgraded. It's time to find those Heavenly Demons and cause them some trouble!"

Shen Mo put away the blood flag. With a thought, the Evil-eating Centipede roared, stirring up a demonic light as it sped towards the Near Sea Demon Cave.

Before the world's drastic changes, the prolonged Demon Disaster had killed hundreds of millions of mortals and cultivators in the Red Flame Country. Shen Mo had always firmly remembered this blood debt.

With his current combat power, no weaker than the peak Golden Core Realm, and with the assistance of the Evil-eating Centipede and the Demon Soul Generals from the flag, he now had the confidence to completely uproot the Near Sea Demon Cave.

「Not long after」

The Evil-eating Centipede, carrying Shen Mo, appeared above the Near Sea Demon Cave.

The half of the demonic cave previously trampled by the Four-eyed Giant was now fully repaired. Streams of hideous Heavenly Demons continuously entered and exited, plundering blood food from the sea regions and Sea State territories they occupied.

Perhaps sensing Shen Mo's aura, large numbers of low-class Heavenly Demons grew agitated and hastily retreated into the demonic cave; even the Class IV Big Heavenly Demons dared not show themselves.

Outside the demonic cave, torrents of demon light and Demonic Qi surged constantly, evidently a large Formation.

Among the Demon-corrupted cultivators, many were proficient in the Array Path. They had adapted these skills, enabling the Heavenly Demon race to establish their own Formations and Prohibitions.

Furthermore, many Demon-corrupted cultivators could also refine Elixirs and forge magic artifacts. However, they rarely did so, as they primarily grew stronger by devouring blood food. They could also seize magic treasures from fallen experts and Corrupt them with origin power, so personally forging magic treasures was extremely rare.

Gazing down at the demonic cave, which resembled a miniature Demon Zone, Shen Mo, without a word, transformed into his three-headed, six-armed form. He then relentlessly bombarded the large Formation with the Void Palm and Universe Sword Qi.

This terrifying display of power quickly alarmed the cultivators stationed in the Sea State outpost, who all transformed into streaks of escaping light and rushed towards this location.

"It's Shen Mo, the Golden Core Patriarch of the Riverside Sect!"

"He hasn't been seen in years! Judging by the might of his techniques today, his cultivation level must have improved significantly."

"Indeed! Look at the centipede demonic beast beneath his feet. Its Demonic Aura is so fierce and vast, far surpassing several Demon Kings of the Marine Race; it's likely a peak Class IV creature! To be able to tame such a Spirit Pet, how could the Riverside Sect's patriarch be anything but powerful!"

"Is True Master Shen planning to completely exterminate all the Heavenly Demons in the Near Sea Demon Cave today?"

"That would be absolutely wonderful! Years ago, Heavenly Demons viciously murdered more than two hundred members of my Dong Family of Sea State. Once the great Formation is broken, I, Dong, will definitely slaughter them to my heart's content!"

"..."

Under the bombardment of Shen Mo's magic and sword Qi, the large Formation enveloping the demonic cave was teetering, on the verge of collapse.

Simultaneously, streams of Divine Sense continuously flooded in, not only offering respectful greetings but also expressing their determination to slay demons.

Although Shen Mo was confident he could eradicate the Near Sea Demon Cave by himself, he didn't refuse the goodwill of these Sea State cultivators. After all, many of them harbored deep-seated hatred for the Foreign Realm Demons. He merely instructed them to be cautious once the battle began and not to needlessly sacrifice their lives at the final juncture of eliminating the demon scourge!

BOOM!

Ultimately, the large Formation outside the demonic cave could hold no longer and instantly disintegrated.

"Universal Demon Slaying!" Shen Mo roared, swinging his Taiyi Sword fiercely down towards the demonic cave below.

Under the terrifying, earth-shattering sword might, the entire demonic cave was cleaved in two as if the ground itself had split. Millions of Heavenly Demons perished beneath this Sword Light, and the escaping Demonic Qi roiled and surged, dyeing vast expanses of the sea black.

Instantly, the Heavenly Demons fortunate enough to survive scattered in all directions like locusts, desperately scrambling for a chance at life.

Seeing this, Shen Mo shook the Soul Refining Flag, releasing all the Demon Soul Generals. Led by late-stage Class IV Demon Soul Generals like the Ghost Bride, they instantly carved the entire sea region into ten battlefields, fervently capturing and slaughtering demons of all levels.

Even the few remaining Class IV Big Heavenly Demons within the demonic cave had no hope of escaping this sea region.

The cultivators stationed in Sea State, whether from immortal sects or rogue cultivators, recovered from their shock and quickly brandished their magic treasures, unleashing magic as they joined the slaughter.

With powerful Demon Soul Generals spearheading the assault, the remaining Heavenly Demons from the Near Sea Demon Cave couldn't cause any significant trouble. They were continuously torn apart by the Demon Soul Generals or captured directly into the Soul Refining Flag to be refined into new ones. The cultivators from the Sea State outposts found the killing exceptionally easy!

「At that moment」

A beam of demon light swept out from the ruined demonic cave.

Dozens of cultivators from the outposts, unable to dodge in time, were struck by the demon light, which plundered all their Essence and Qi, leaving them as shriveled corpses.

CLANG!

A clear sword cry echoed.

A brilliant stream of sword Qi abruptly slashed through the demon light, shattering it into feathers of light that dissipated into nothingness.

Then, a young woman of exquisite appearance and refined bearing, clad in silver flame armor and wielding a silver flame spear seven to eight chi long, slowly emerged from the ruins of the demonic cave!

Shen Mo's five senses had already detected a peak Class IV Heavenly Demon within the demonic cave. However, upon seeing the woman clearly, he was still visibly startled, a look of astonishment crossing his face.

The reason was simple: this peak Class IV demon, appearing as a beautiful young woman, was none other than "Fairy Pei Yu," the Demon-corrupted cultivator Shen Mo had encountered years ago in the demonic cave at Wolf Howling Ridge!
