Chapter 595: Formations
Ye Xiao kept observing the situation in front for a few minutes before deciding to take action.
He again used the soul destruction to see if he could kill these two demons by destroying their souls. He was surprised when one of the demons immediately fall down and died while the other one groaned in pain before looking at Ye Xiao with red eyes.
Ye Xiao understood the situation of the first one but he was confused because of the second demon.
The first demon must be an alive demon. When he used the Soul Destruction ability, that demon instantly died. But why did the second demon groan in pain before looking at him with red eyes?
There could only be one explanation, this demon must also be alive, and in terms of soul, its soul must be at least comparable to Ye Xiao"s soul or slightly more powerful, causing the demon to experience soul pain when he used the soul destruction on the demon.
A demon whose soul power is at least equal to Ye Xiao"s soul power, what kind of strength does this demon has?
"Human, you dare to come and kill, you are courting death!"
The demon shouted with red eyes before lunging at Ye Xiao with his claw-like hands, wanting to tear Ye Xiao apart with a single attack.
Fortunately, Ye Xiao"s cultivation increased by a lot after killing hundreds of thousands of Golden Bullet Ants. Because of his increase in cultivation, Ye Xiao was able to face this demon head-on.
"Bang!"
When the two of their attacks collided against each other, a shockwave spread in the underground cave, causing some of the rocks to fall down from above and a few thin layers of walls to be shattered.
"Human, only if I could use my true cultivation here, you would have died a thousand times now!" The demon snorted coldly and said.
Ye Xiao could also guess that this demon must be extremely powerful in the outside world. He must be at least an Early Dao Soul Stage Demon. It was no wonder that its soul-power was slightly more powerful than his!
"Unfortunately, you"ll never have the opportunity to ever use your true cultivation. You are destined to die here today!" Ye Xiao chuckled and replied.
"Heh, do you reall..."
Before the demon could say anything more, he felt a burning sensation that seemed to have come from the blood flowing within his body. And the pain was extremely high on his claw-like hand. This was the hand he used to collide against Ye Xiao"s attack.
Startled, he immediately took a look and was shocked to see that his hand was actually turning black and this blackness was spreading to his body at a speed naked to the eyes. It was as if he was poisoned with an extremely terrifying poison, he soon lost the ability to use his right hand that has already been blackened completely.
"What did you do to me?"
The demon was frightened, he could not help but ask with fear clearly visible on his face.
Ye Xiao curled up his lips and smiled before speaking, "Nothing much, as you can already guess, you have been poisoned by me. Don"t worry, you"ll not experience high pain. I made sure to make you feel very low pain. The pain will end soon anyway."
"The poison I used is called Nether Fire Poison, I think you have heard of this poison, right?"
"Nether Fire Poison?!"
The demon exclaimed in fear when he heard this. It was because the Nether Fire Poison was extremely famous for its terrifying properties.
It is said that a person poisoned with Nether Fire Poison will experience the pain to minimal. It was not a poison to kill a person painfully, it was a poison to let a person experience losing the ability to control their body parts one by one and in less than five minutes, when the poisoned person will lose the ability to control his entire body, his body will turn into a cloud of blood before evaporating into thin air.
This was enough to make the demon extremely scared. He wanted to shout at Ye Xiao to stop the poison, unfortunately, the poison has already spread through his vocal cords and throat to the other arm and was spreading downwards as well as upwards.
He lost the ability to say anything. Because of this, he could only helplessly see the poison spreading at a speed that was not very fast and neither was slow. Fear could be clearly seen in his eyes.
He did not want to die here. There were many things he wanted to achieve, one of such things was to shake hands with the Demon Master of Blood Demon Sect and conquer the Immortal Worlds. Using the opportunity, he also wanted to break through continuously and ascend to the Devil Realm.
But now, he was dying and there was nothing he could do at this moment. He was so helpless that he could not even beg for mercy from the human standing opposite to him.
This human was really too hateful. Not only he was poisoned by this human, but this human was also looking at him with a satisfied smile as if he was extremely satisfied with the result of using the poison. It was as if the human was looking at him as a test subject, which he could use to experiment!
The poison continued to spread and it didn"t take long for the demon"s body to be completely poisoned. The next moment, the demon"s eyes opened wide as if he could feel something was happening inside his body.
The next moment, "boom"...
The demon exploded before evaporating immediately.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Xiao looked shifted his gazes to the Blood Devil Spear and a burning look appeared in his eyes.
No matter what, he had to get this spear.
He did not know how this spear appeared here or who was the creator of this spear, what he did not was that this spear was a Low Grade Divine Weapon and could at least come in handy till he ascended to the Divine Realm.
Even after ascending to the Divine Realm, he could still use this spear until the spear was of no use to him.
Ye Xiao did not how to take away the spear. He decided to wait for the spear to completely absorb the Blood Essence below it. Only after that will he take action.
Ye Xiao started waiting. He also kept observing the surroundings using his Divine Sense, to see if other demons were returning or not.
If the other demons really returned, he"ll need to kill them also.
But this was too much of a ha.s.sle. Ye Xiao planned to lay down a killing formation to trap the demons who"ll enter this place. Laying down the formation will also give Ye Xiao a lot of time to prepare for his next move.
Ye Xiao immediately started laying down a killing formation. He first laid down an illusion formation so that others will fall in an illusion where they"ll see the two demons from before still guarding the Blood Devil Spear while the Blood Devil Spear was absorbing the Blood Essence from the Blood Pool below.
The next will be the Killing Formation. Through this formation, not only the demons entering this place will be attacked by many types of deadly methods, but they"ll also be poisoned with ten different kinds of poison.
Ye Xiao was extremely ruthless here. Right now, nothing was more important other than getting his hands on the Blood Devil Spear. He"ll definitely kill all the demons if they dared to stop him from taking away the Blood Devil Spear.
After laying down the formation, Ye Xiao rested for a while to recover the lost energy before he once again started laying down another formation.
This time, he was laying down a formation called s.p.a.ce Lock Formation.
He was wary of the demon who could hide in a different s.p.a.ce and still keep an eye on him. That demon could be proved to be extremely difficult to deal with. Because of him, Ye Xiao laid down the s.p.a.ce Lock Formation, causing the s.p.a.ce inside the underground cave to be strengthened by more than three times.
Now, Ye Xiao was sure that the demon won"t be able to enter into a different s.p.a.ce if he dared to appear in front of him. At the same time, if that demon arrived here through a different s.p.a.ce, he still won"t be able to come out or see what was happening inside the underground cave.
After doing all of this thing, Ye Xiao finally relaxed.
No demon came, it proved that the demons were still investigating the riot outside. They must have also found other hundreds of thousands of Golden Bullet Ants that had gone in different directions, causing destruction everywhere.
The demons must have been scared and were investigating the cause of everything. Because of this, they still didn"t come here to check the Blood Devil Spear.
They also must be extremely confident in the strength of demons guarding the Blood Devil Spear.
