Chapter 1506: The Soul Demon
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
For Soul Demons, human food was an extremely disgusting thing that would make them vomit. Therefore, they had a deep aversion to the smell of human food.
Tian Qiu put away the HeavenG.o.d’s note. It was a very good bait. Using it, he had attracted countless human experts along the way, from the weak to the strong, and then devoured all of them. As a result, his strength had been growing stronger and stronger.
The black bug armor made him look even more menacing. His aura fluctuated, emitting violent and frightening energy that constantly bombarded and cracked the void.
Suddenly, he swept out his palm, slicing the oyster pancake in two. However, as soon as it was sliced open, a strong fragrance spread out, lingering in his nose and mouth and causing his stomach to turn once again!
“How can it be so disgusting?!”
At this moment, Bu Fang focused his eyes, gripped the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife, and slashed it out. Thousands of knife lights burst out at once and soared up to the sky, colliding with Tian Qiu.
Rumble!
The attack did nothing to Tian Qiu, though. He remained still while his aura fluctuated more violently, almost breaking through the shackle of a mid-grade G.o.d King. His breakthrough was different from a human’s breakthrough, which relied on the Power of Law.
“Die!”
Tian Qiu moved rapidly through the dark cave. His speed was simply too fast. After closing in on Bu Fang, he thrust out his claw. The void screamed and was torn apart as the sharp claw moved through it.
Bu Fang held the kitchen knife with his Taotie Arm and then jerked it up, colliding it with the claw. Sparks flew in the darkness, and a deafening rumble erupted half a second later. The force of this move was so great that Bu Fang couldn’t resist, and he was knocked flying backward.
In the distance, Summer was locked in a fierce battle by the three brothers. They were already dead. However, controlled by Tian Qiu, they were constantly attacking her like savage beasts. If not for her comprehension of the Law of s.p.a.ce, she would have been killed instantly.
She had cut one of the beasts in half with her Spatial Slash, but its body had just wriggled for a while, and then it fully recovered. This situation caused her to feel an overwhelming sense of panic.
The vitality of these monsters was way too strong! Or rather, they were so weird, and they seemed to have no weakness at all! Although they only had the strength of low-grade G.o.d Kings, because they were not afraid of getting hurt, they managed to suppress Summer!
“Where did these creatures come from?!” Summer sucked in a cold breath.
The whole cave was shaking, and the walls were covered with cracks as if they were about to collapse at any moment. Meanwhile, the HeavenG.o.d’s bone and HeavenG.o.d’s blood were bobbing in midair. These things that would normally become the focus of everyone whenever they showed up were now being ignored.
Bu Fang jumped to his feet and turned to run off into the distance, shattering the ground with every step.
Tian Qiu came after him, wrapped in black armor with scales that opened and closed as if they were breathing.
“Rubbis.h.!.+ Now you want to run away? Where’s that arrogant att.i.tude you had earlier?”
His face was ferocious, and he kept roaring fiercely, chasing Bu Fang at high speed. His eyes sparkled as one burst of divine sense after another shot out of him to destroy Bu Fang’s divine sense.
For Soul Demons, soul attacks were what they were best at. They were capable of imitating all human attacks, including the divine abilities that humans were most proud of. However, they could not imitate the Laws because that required comprehension. Without comprehension, they naturally could not use the Laws.
However, Tian Qiu was devoured, so this Soul Demon was able to use his Laws. This made him even stronger. He now had an immortal body as well as strong fighting prowess that was not much weaker than a high-grade G.o.d King.
Boom!
Tian Qiu threw out a punch, and the whole cave collapsed in an instant.
With three explosive sounds, the three brothers who were oppressing Summer rushed out of the ground, threw their heads back, and let out terrifying b.e.s.t.i.a.l roars. Their voices spread out through the night, chilling many of the fierce beasts in the relic.
Countless Blood Beasts were rus.h.i.+ng toward them like crazy at this moment. The HeavenG.o.d’s Note, bone, blood—almost all the most precious treasures in the relic—were gathered here, which would naturally attract countless experts.
Meanwhile, because of the violent fluctuations of the battle, many experts who were exploring the danger zone also noticed the anomaly. They looked at each other, then flew toward it.
Summer looked somewhat bedraggled. She was panting hard, and her beautiful face had been wounded. Beads of glittering blood were oozing out from the wound and dripping on the ground.
It was the first time she had been pushed to this extent. As a G.o.d King who had comprehended the supreme Law of the Universe, she had been heaven’s favored one from birth. Situations like this really rarely happened to her.
The three savage monsters had grown even bigger, almost covering the entire sky and looking very scary.
Summer turned her head to look at the ground that had turned into ruins. There, Bu Fang was being oppressed by the scarier Tian Qiu. She wasn’t sure if he was still alive, but she knew he wouldn’t be able to escape.
“Tian Qiu himself is already a mid-grade G.o.d King, and coupled with that weird power… No matter how talented Bu Fang is, it won’t be possible for him to resist his attack… After all, Bu Fang is just a DemiG.o.d. How can a DemiG.o.d resist an existence who is so close to a high-grade G.o.d King?”
Boom!
The ground exploded. Bu Fang flew out of it, his face as cold as ice. When he saw the HeavenG.o.d’s bone and blood, he grabbed them and put them away.
Tian Qiu was chasing after him, showering him with attacks that blew up the void. If he had not comprehended the Law of s.p.a.ce, he might not have been able to avoid these attacks.
Loud explosions kept ringing out as trees were breaking and falling. At the same time, one savage monster after another sped over and surrounded the battlefield. These Blood Beasts roared and hissed, stirring heaven and earth with their terrifying voices.
Not only had the Blood Beasts arrived, but even the human experts were here as well. The battle shocked many people. They couldn’t believe that someone would dare to fight so violently in the relic. If the fluctuations of the battle attracted a top Blood Beast King, none of them would be able to escape!
These experts did not dare to get too close. After all, the Blood Beasts around the battlefield were too scary. Even mid-grade G.o.d Kings could only watch from a distance.
“That seems to be Princess Summer!”
“Is she under attack? What are those three things?”
“They look like the savage monsters many people are talking about recently, the ones that have the ability to imitate human power!”
In the distance, several experts watching the battle in midair gasped. The strength of the three huge monsters frightened them. What else could they say when even Summer was suppressed by them?
Rumble!
Bu Fang landed on the ground and moved at high speed through the woods. The Law of s.p.a.ce opened the way for him, allowing him to travel hundreds of meters with every step. That was why Tian Qiu had not been able to catch up with him.
Tian Qiu’s face became increasingly cold. Staring intently at Bu Fang, his eyes burst into a blood-colored light, and then he let out a hiss.
This was Soul Shock, a unique attack of the Soul Demon. Once hit, it could completely wipe out the soul of a DemiG.o.d. Even if he missed, the shock would still be enough to turn Bu Fang into a fool!
Like an awl, the attack kept closing in on Bu Fang. Soon, it hit him on the back of his head with a thump.
Bu Fang felt as if he had been p.r.i.c.ked by a small stone. He turned his head suspiciously, glanced around, but saw nothing unusual. This puzzled him.
Tian Qiu’s eyes widened in disbelief. “How can he be unscathed?! Even a mid-grade G.o.d King can’t block my soul attack! Why does this chef look completely fine? Dammit!”
The next moment, the scales on his armor opened up, and jets of hot air spurted out of them, causing him to move faster. Roaring, he rushed into the distance, closing in on Bu Fang while pulling out a scaly knife, which seemed to be breathing. Without hesitation, he jerked the knife up and slashed it down viciously.
“Die!” Tian Qiu growled at the top of his lungs.
Bu Fang swept out his kitchen knife and unleashed his divine power, the Kitchen Knife of Affliction. Ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine slashes quickly joined into a single slash and collided with Tian Qiu’s attack.
RUMBLE!
He immediately felt a mighty force coming from the kitchen knife. He managed to fend off the attack, but he had barely done that with his divine power.
“I saw it! I saw it! You’re dead…” Tian Qiu’s eyes lit up as he let out a cold laugh. Then, with a shake of his hand, he slashed out his scaly knife once again. Suddenly, countless knife lights spread and turned into a colossal knife, which cut through the sky and left behind a huge gas.h.!.+
Bu Fang sucked in a cold breath when he sensed the oppressive aura emanating from that knife.
Rumble!
The knife struck him, but the invincibility of the Vermilion Robe was triggered, and it blocked the blow for him. Still, he was knocked to the ground, and he had to take several steps back to stabilize himself.
Tian Qiu also landed on the ground. With bloodshot eyes, he was panting excitedly, and black smoke could be seen gus.h.i.+ng out of his nostrils and mouth.
‘He was able to imitate my divine power?!’ Bu Fang narrowed his eyes. Tian Qiu was even stronger than the strange creature he had met in the Great Netherworld. However, he had also become stronger now. With a thought in his mind, Foxy suddenly appeared and fell onto his shoulder.
As soon as she sensed Tian Qiu’s aura, she bared her teeth, and her fur bristled.
Bu Fang raised his hand and slapped her lightly on the b.u.t.tock. She spat out an Explosive Meatball, and a delicious aroma filled the air instantly.
Tian Qiu’s stomach turned again. He slashed out his knife and collided it with the meatball. An explosion broke out in an instant, and he quickly looked away.
Bu Fang’s eyes lit up at once. ‘This seems to work! So I can use the aroma of food to suppress this kind of creature?’ Nodding, he patted Foxy again and told her to continue shooting. Then, he took out a Peris.h.i.+ng Pot and shoved it into her mouth.
Foxy’s eyes went wide as the HeavenG.o.d’s blood spread rapidly throughout her body. The next moment, she opened her mouth and screamed.
BOOM!
With a tremendous counterforce, the Peris.h.i.+ng Pot shot out of Foxy’s mouth and flew spinning toward Tian Qiu, glowing blindingly like the blazing sun in the night. The entire relic seemed to be lit up by the light at this moment.
Tian Qiu’s face fell, and he caught a whiff of the delicious smell.
“I can’t believe someone actually uses food as a weapon! Dammit! Chefs among human beings should be annihilated!”
As Tian Qiu roared, the Peris.h.i.+ng Pot fell and exploded with a loud bang. A vast amount of explosive energy swept through the battlefield, completely engulfing him.
