Spiritual And Martial Conqueror Chapter 121

Chapter 121 - Ape King

Lu Shaoyu didn't pay much attention to all of this. It was only later on that he discovered that this unintentional action had helped him greatly and created an incomparably strong body defense.

During these seven days, they had only encountered four early-Third Order and a mid-Third Order demon beast along the way. However, all of them had been intimidated by Huang Qifan, so they were able to get away safely.

In these seven days, the poison on the Blood Devouring Bone Pill in his chest had already been burnt to eighty percent by the golden flames on Xiao Long's body, but he himself had actually gained quite a lot of benefits. Right now, his true qi cultivation was already at the late seventh stage, and he estimated that after refining the remaining poison, he would be able to reach the peak of the seventh stage or even the eighth stage.

"There are still seven days. After seven more days, we will reach the mountain range where we will be safe." He Qingshan said.

"Seven days are almost up. Once we reach the safe zone, everyone will be safe." Huang Qifan said.

Although Lu Shao You was a little worried, he was still alright. With the soul poison marshal by his side, he was still safe. He was afraid that the old poison would leave him behind, but once he reached a safe zone, he had to think of a way to leave the old poison.

"This is the most dangerous place in the Misty Cloud Mountain Range, so be careful if any Rank 4 Demonic Beasts appear." Li Feng said.

"We should leave earlier. It doesn't seem safe here." At this moment, the luxuriously dressed, long-haired youth who usually didn't talk much spoke.

"No need, it's too late." The Poison Marshal opened his eyes as he spoke softly.

However, there was a saying that 'what you fear comes true'. Right at this moment, sounds of rustling could be heard from the surrounding forests. Dozens of figures of demonic beasts appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"An early Third Order Earth Howling Wolf, a mid-Third Order Flame Rat, a late-Third Order Bone Devourer Wolf, and an Earth Tiger Red-edged Demonic Turtle. Looking at the dozens of demonic beasts around him, Lu Shaowu sucked in a breath of cold air.

Including the fact that the giant tail was over a hundred meters long and had a mouth like that of a snake type demon beast, it had a long tongue, a blood-red body, thick scales covering its entire body, and two eyes that were like giant bells as they stared at everyone.

"Earth type demonic beast, Blood Lizard." Lu Shaowu's heart sank. This demonic beast's breed was recorded in his master's personal jade slip, and this Blood Lizard had reached at least the rank of a Rank 4 Demonic Beast.

The three black-headed horned pheasants were already so frightened that their bodies were trembling. Their berserk aura spread out and cold sweat broke out on several members of the mercenary group. There were more than fifty of them, and they were all Rank Three Demonic Beasts.

Most importantly, there were several flying beasts circling above the forest, making it even harder to deal with them.

"It's a Blood Lizard under the Stone Ape King." Huang Qifan looked shocked.

Everyone was on guard except for the Poison Marshal. He remained sitting cross-legged on the ground, glancing at the dozens of demonic beasts around him.

"Xiaolong, be quiet." Sensing the aura of the surrounding demonic beasts, Xiaolong also became restless. Lu Shaowu hurriedly tried to pacify him.

"Human, this is our territory, not yours." The Blood Lizard stared at everyone and actually spoke in the human tongue.

"It really is a Rank 4 Demonic Beast." Rank 4 demon beasts could be considered middle level demon beasts. Rank 1 to 3 demon beasts could only be considered low level demon beasts. Rank 4 to 6 demon beasts could be considered middle level demon beasts.

As for demonic beasts from the seventh step to the ninth step, they were all at the level of Greater Demons. Each of these demonic beasts could transform into a human, and their strength was also incomparably strong — absolutely terrifying.

Among the demon beasts, a low level one to three demon beast, although compared to a wild beast, had a lot more talent and intelligence, but still couldn't speak in human language.

Demon beasts also came from wild beasts, but not all wild beasts could become demon beasts. Generally speaking, it would be good if only one demon beast could become a demon beast out of hundreds of wild beasts, but demon beasts were much stronger than wild beasts. After having seen a demon beast for countless years, the offspring of a demon beast would all be demon beasts, unlike human warriors.

In terms of innate genes, demon beasts were much stronger than humans. When a demon beast reached the fourth stage, it would form a demon core inside its body. Its intelligence would be fully activated and it would be able to speak in human language, but it would not be able to transform into a human.

Furthermore, it was rumored that after reaching the level of a seventh level demon beast, the demon beast would be able to reconstruct its body and transform into a human form at will. This was because a human form was most suitable for cultivation.

Spirit beasts were different from demonic beasts. When a spirit beast reached the fourth stage, they could similarly condense spirit pills, and their cultivation would rise to a whole new level. However, for spirit beasts, they had to reach the sixth stage before they could take human form.

However, a Rank 6 Spirit Beast could not transform into a human form, nor could it transform into a human form. It still needed to reach the seventh level to do so.

"We're just pa.s.sing by. There's some medicinal pills here, so please pa.s.s them to the Stone Ape Demon King." At this moment, the head of the Fresh Breeze Mercenaries, Huang Qisan, took out several Grade 3 pills. With a wave of his hand, a blue light wrapped around several Grade 3 pills and brought them to the Blood Lizard.

"Whew." A ray of yellow light shot out from the blood lizard's mouth and wrapped around the elixirs as it said, "The Stone Ape Demon King is currently our second Demon King. Because you humans killed our demon beasts, our Great Demonic King recently gave the order to kill every single one of you humans."

"Demon King …" Everyone felt a chill run down their spines. Even the poison marshal was surprised.

"Kill all these humans." As its four limbs stomped on the ground, the entire ground immediately started to shake, and a violent force swept out like a gale. The intelligence of a Rank Four Demonic Beast was no longer inferior to that of a human's; even after taking Huang Qifan's Grade Three Medicinal Pill, it still wanted to kill the human in front of it.

"Everyone, be careful. We have our own destinies." Huang Qifan shouted and the Zhen Qi around his body started to vibrate. There were dozens of Rank 3 Demonic Beasts below him. Although there were around thirty people, everyone knew that this group of Demonic Beasts undoubtedly held the upper hand.

In the blink of an eye, all the demonic beasts in the sky and the surrounding area rapidly charged towards the group. The sharp sound of wind breaking sounded as the blood lizard charged at Huang Qifan like a bolt of lightning, the scales on its body erect as it emitted a cold, blood-colored light.

"Rank 4 beast, I'm really afraid." Sensing the overwhelming aura coming from the Blood Lizard, a hint of surprise flashed across Lu Shaoyu's eyes. This Blood Lizard should be at the early Fourth Order level, but judging from its aura, that Huang Qishao shouldn't be able to do anything to it.

"Bang …"

In the surrounding area, some people were already fighting with the devil beasts. Violent Zhen Qi suddenly spread out. Facing these organized demon beasts, everyone had no other choice but to go all out to kill them.

These organized demon beasts were not like individual demon beasts. If a single demon beast was no match for them, they would retreat on their own. However, these organized demon beasts would not retreat even if they died while facing the leader of the demon beasts.

"Kid, you just stay here and don't move." The Soul Summoning Poison Commander lightly said. He formed a hand seal and a three meter long ring of light appeared around his body. Outside the ring of light, a strong stench spread out. Those beasts didn't dare to approach him.

At this time, the Blood Lizard had already launched its attack towards Huang Qifan. Its ma.s.sive body disappeared from its original position, and it instantly pounced towards Huang Qifan.

Huang Qifan didn't seem to be careless in the slightest. His expression became incomparably solemn as the true energy beneath his feet flashed, and he quickly retreated.

"Chi chi …!"

Just as Huang Qifan's body was falling backwards, the Blood Lizard's giant forelimbs seemed to pierce through the air current like a grand road. With a single swipe of its claws, the air current was pushed away, as if it was tearing s.p.a.ce apart.

In the midst of his panic, Huang Qifan's spear shot out like lightning and pierced through the air. In a flash, it appeared in front of the Blood Lizard's front paw. As a fifth level Martial Spirit expert, their strength was not weak either.

"Swish, swish …"

True energy surged out from Huang Qifan's body, and his long spear brought out a blue light. The ear-piercing sound of wind breaking rang out, and although his strength of a fifth level Martial Soul Stage expert was unable to harm the Blood Lizard, the Blood Lizard was unable to do anything to him.

At this moment, He Qingshan was already fighting against a Wind elemental late stage Demonic Beast, the Bone Corrosion Wolf. It seemed to be somewhat strenuous, as the huge saber on his back hacked out continuously. A majestic aura emanated from his body.

The Bone Corrosion Wolf roared repeatedly. Its body was over fifty meters in size. Its enormous body was extremely fast. Numerous strange wind blades were also emitted from its mouth as a sonic boom sounded unceasingly.

As a ninth stage warrior, it was naturally difficult for He Qingshan to deal with a late third stage Corrupted Wolf. However, he could still barely hold on.

The energy around the Nine-Layered Spirit Master, Li Feng, was currently trembling non-stop. His entire body was enveloped in a dazzling halo of light, and streams of spirit energy condensed into attack power and fire as he attacked the Fierce Flame Rat Demon as well as the Black Haired Monstrous Monkey.

Li Feng did not dare to let the two demonic beasts get close. A Spiritual Master was not suited to close range attacks, so he would suffer a little loss if he did. With the agility of this Spiritual Master's attacks, even the two mid-Third Order demonic beasts would not be able to get close.

Someone had already been killed by a demon beast, but there were also demon beasts that had been killed or injured. A series of mournful howls immediately rang out, since the 30 members of the Fresh Breeze Mercenary Group were not weak. They were all above the Martial Master level, and the lowest was a first level Martial Master.

The battlefield was in chaos. Fireb.a.l.l.s, water pillars, earth cracks, all sorts of attacks were being launched. Some were by demon beasts, while others were by humans.

"Ahh …"

A blood-curdling scream rang out. It was none other than the three youths with short hair who had gone to the Ancient Regions. They had been bitten in half by a Rank 3 Demonic Beast.

The middle-aged woman's cultivation had reached the level of a second stage Martial Master. Under the siege of two Rank 3 Demonic Beasts, she had already suffered heavy injuries.

When Lu Shaowu saw the long-haired young man, he was surprised. He was unable to see the young man's strength, but a mid-Third Order demonic beast had already been killed at the young man's side.

He had always thought that with the Yin Yang Spirit Martial Arts, his cultivation would be able to rise rapidly. However, he had never thought that outside of the mountains, there would be people who were stronger than him. The world was huge, and it was inevitable that someone with a heaven-defying talent would be able to receive training from a young age.

"Old Uncle, are you not going to take action?" Lu Shao You asked the Poison Marshal beside him. Seeing that the Poison Marshal had no intention of attacking, he did not plan to.

"What does their life have to do with me? Why should I save them?" The Poison Marshal said.

"I say, uncle, don't forget. If they die, how are we supposed to pa.s.s through this mountain range? We don't have any flying monsters!" Lu Shaoyu said.

Hearing Lu Shaoyu's words, the Poison Marshal's face twitched slightly. He immediately said: "You remain in my poison barrier, so the demonic beasts don't dare to approach."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Poison Soul Marshal immediately disappeared from where he was, leaving behind a black cover all over Lu Shaoyu's body.

"How dare a few Rank 3 Demonic Beasts act so impudently? They are courting death." Poison Marshal leaped into the air and floated straight up into the air. With a clench of his fist, a black ball of light condensed and flew out. A low and deep explosive sound rang out incessantly as the black ball of light descended upon the three demonic beasts.

"What a powerful strength." Looking up at the sky, Lu Shaowu thought to himself. The aura this old poisonous object was releasing was already terrifying to the point of being terrifying.

"Bang!" Boom! * "Bang! …"

The black light ball exploded and terrifying energy shockwaves continuously spread out. Even from far away, Lu Shao You could feel the pressure contained within the energy shockwaves. A wave of Spiritual Energy filled the air and he felt that it was much stronger than his own.

The three Rank 3 Demonic Beasts were blasted into smithereens. Their ma.s.sive body was about 4: 50. At this moment, everyone was staring at the Soul Summoning Poison Marshal in shock. So the strength of this old man had actually reached such a terrifying level.

"The strong are the strong are the strong are the strong are the strong are the strong." Li Feng and Huang Qifeng were stunned. The aura emanating from the Poison Marshal's body had not been suppressed at all. They could naturally feel it at this moment.

At this moment, everyone was astonished. A Spirit Commander powerhouse, at this stage, had the power to move mountains and overturn the seas, and this kind of powerhouse was something that was extremely rare to encounter. They never expected that the old man was actually a Spirit Commander powerhouse.

"Blood Lizard, a little worm like you dares to be so impudent? Do you want to die?" The Poison Marshal's expression darkened and he stopped attacking the Rank 3 Demonic Beasts. Instead, he moved in front of the 'righteous' character that was fighting with Huang Qifan.

"You're a Spirit Commander powerhouse." The blood lizard stared at the Poison Marshal in horror, and its ma.s.sive body immediately began to retreat. With its strength, it was simply unable to contend against the human Spirit Commander.

"Take your demon beasts and get out of here. I don't have the mood to deal with you today. Otherwise, I will dig out your cores." The Venomous Soul Marshal stared at the Blood Lizard and said coldly.

"Humph, human spirit commander, I'm afraid you don't have that ability yet." The blood lizard stared at the Poison Marshal, and then it roared loudly: "Ao …"

The sound penetrated the air and rose to the heavens. The deafening sound echoed high up in the mountain range.

"You want to find a helper? You're courting death." Seeing the roars of the Blood Lizard, the Poison Marshal's expression darkened. He frowned and the Spiritual Qi around his body trembled. With a 'chi' sound, he transformed into a blurry figure that shot explosively towards the Blood Lizard.

The blood lizard seemed to know how powerful the Poison Spirit Marshal was, its huge body quickly retreated, not daring to take it head-on.

"You don't have enough speed to escape." The Poison General's speed was even faster than the Blood Lizard. With a sneer, his body flashed and appeared in the air in front of the Blood Lizard. With a wave of his hand, a spiritual flame gathered in front of him.

The Spiritual Flame trembled for a moment. Then, wave after wave of powerful and formless fluctuations spread out like a circular ripple and instantly enveloped the Blood Lizard.

"Roar …"

The blood lizard roared and the blood-red light surrounding its body disappeared. It opened its mouth and a large yellow s.h.i.+eld of light appeared in front of its body.

"Huff, huff …"

At this time, the yellow light s.h.i.+eld in front of the blood lizard slowly twisted, and a wave of spirit fire wrapped it up. Just like a piece of plastic that had been burnt by flames, it began to distort and change shape, finally melting.

"Awoo …"

Right at this moment, a series of roars tore through the sky from the horizon. A deafening roar mixed with an aura that overflowed the heavens sounded in everyone's ears, causing their souls to tremble.

As the whistling sound faded, a ma.s.sive and berserk aura swiftly gushed over from the far end of the forest. At the same time, an enormous streak of light instantly rose into the air.

"What a powerful demonic beast." Lu Shaoyu raised his head to look over, but he couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. This demonic beast's body was over three hundred meters long and covered with red scales.
