173: Soul Eater

Chapter 172 Soul-Devouring Spirit Child

"I am going to eat you up!!!"

Liu Linger let out an angry roar, her massive body suddenly rearing up. Disregarding the injuries on her body, she lunged forward to bite Zheng Yi.

With nowhere left to dodge and facing the massive snake head, Zheng Yi hardened his heart and suddenly used both hands to prop open Liu Linger's huge mouth.

At the same time, his right foot swept horizontally with immense force!

"Go to hell!"

"Pfft!"

Sweeping with thousands of catties of brute force, he actually snapped Liu Linger's fangs directly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, his figure twisted and he appeared on Liu Linger's right side, smashing a punch directly into her right pupil.

"Hiss...!"

Liu Linger let out a miserable scream as her right pupil was pierced straight through by Zheng Yi's punch.

Her right eye was blinded!

"Wuwuwu, Sister, Sister Miaoer..."

"It hurts so much, it hurts so much..."

Screaming miserably, Liu Linger stopped attacking altogether. Instead, she violently smashed through the window and fled outside.

She was merely a newborn snake demon. According to the Yao Race's age calculation, she was just a young snakelet. Let alone combat experience, she had hardly even seen a few humans.

After suffering such a ferocious attack from Zheng Yi, she was actually scared!

Disregarding her own injuries and Zheng Yi's relentless pursuit, she turned around and escaped.

"Not good!"

Zheng Yi cursed inwardly and charged out right after her.

This was the snake demon's nest after all. If he could kill her inside Liu Linger's bedchamber, it wouldn't attract the attention of too many small demons, and he might even be able to escape.

However, if he let Liu Linger escape now, it would inevitably draw the attention of most of the Yao Race in this snake demon nest.

Especially Liu Miaoer!

If Liu Miaoer came over, he would undoubtedly die!

"Pfft!"

Who would have thought that Liu Linger would turn back and violently spit out a ball of grayish-white mist.

A sweet yet fishy and foul stench surged into Zheng Yi's mouth and nose.

"It's poisonous!"

He cursed inwardly. Without dodging or evading the dense toxic gas surrounding him, he charged out once again.

With a single kick, he stepped squarely onto Liu Linger's body.

"Weight of a Thousand Catties!"

He let out an angry roar and slammed both feet down. Taking his own figure as the center, several thousand catties of immense force suddenly plummeted, pressing Liu Linger directly beneath him.

"Ah!"

Liu Linger let out another miserable scream as fresh blood sprayed from her snake mouth.

Even the snake scales at her vital spot were crushed to pieces by this kick from Zheng Yi.

Large chunks of flesh and blood surged out, and crisp sounds of bone fractures came from inside her body.

Liu Linger's massive figure immediately began to twist violently.

"Die!!!"

Zheng Yi bellowed explosively, his figure shooting like an arrow right in front of Liu Linger's snake head.

Formed like an arrow with a single hand, the True Qi and magical power within his body condensed once more, and then exploded.

Spiral Force!

"Boom... Puff!"

Without the protection of the blood-colored jade pendant, this palm strike of his directly pierced through Liu Linger's snake scales, fiercely driving into her vital spot!

Internal Energy and magical power exploded within her body once again, directly inflicting extremely heavy injuries on Liu Linger.

A large amount of fresh blood and organ fragments suddenly spewed out from her deep, terrifying snake mouth.

"Pfft!"

"Sis, Sister!"

With a miserable cry, Liu Linger's massive body collapsed limply to the ground, her seven orifices filled with blood.

From her head and mouth, viscous blood continuously welled up. Her aura was extremely weak, and she was on the verge of death.

"What kind of petty scoundrel dares to run amok in my White Plain Demon King's territory!"

A delicate yet stern shout suddenly came over.

Then saw a blood-colored figure fiercely darting to Liu Linger's side.

"Linger! Linger!"

Supporting the limp Liu Linger on the ground, Liu Miaoer glared at Zheng Yi and gritted her teeth, saying, "I will definitely kill you!"

"Hiss!"

Her eyes suddenly turned blood-red.

A cold mental fluctuation almost materialized into substantive killing intent, rushing into Zheng Yi's body like a tidal wave.

Zheng Yi's sprinting figure suddenly froze in place, his pupils actually turning hazy and dazed.

As for Liu Miaoer, she opened her mouth and spat out a blood-colored demonic core, which merged into Liu Linger's body to treat her injuries.

Seeing this, Zheng Yi's gaze turned fierce once again.

A demonic core!

For snake demons, the vital spot was not their weakness.

The demonic core was!

"Ah!"

With an angry roar, he abruptly broke free from Liu Miaoer's mental control and lunged toward Liu Linger once again.

"A Flawless Body? Filled with True Qi? A Grandmaster Realm Martial Artist of the Human Race? It seems there are also fluctuations of magical power..."

Liu Miaoer sneered and said, "Are you a spirit seedling from the Grade-B Number Seven Spirit Pool?"

"It seems that group of human livestock is rather restless."

"I didn't expect that there are still human livestock unwilling to give up, wanting to use the human stock inside the spirit pool to resist us?"

"In that case, all of you go die!"

With one hand manipulating the demonic core to treat Liu Linger, Liu Miaoer violently slapped the ground with her other hand!

Demonic Technique · Snake Swarm!

"Boom!"

In an instant, densely packed, colorful venomous snakes suddenly appeared on the ground, instantly submerging Zheng Yi's figure.

Among them, there were even more than a dozen giant pythons whose sizes were by no means inferior to Liu Linger's, surrounding Zheng Yi tightly.

At the same time.

Liu Miaoer opened her mouth and spat again, and a vibrant pink mist blended into the surrounding fog.

Looking at Zheng Yi surrounded by the snake swarm, Liu Miaoer sneered, "A mere Grandmaster Realm Martial Artist of the Human Race, who gave you the confidence to come here?"

"My snake venom can even poison and kill Cultivators of the Golden Core Realm. A mere Martial Artist, wouldn't you perish instantly?!"

Liu Miaoer had long since cultivated a demonic core, and coupled with the fact that her own bloodline was that of an ancient great demon, she had long been able to transform into a human form.

As for the Yao Race, a demonic core was equivalent to the Golden Core of Human Race Cultivators, but it was countless times stronger than Human Race Golden Core Cultivators.

A mere Grandmaster Realm Martial Artist, even if there were fluctuations of magical power from a Qi Refinement Phase Cultivator inside his body, was simply no match for her.

With just a slight move of her hand, she could crush countless Qi Refinement Phase and Grandmaster Realm members of the Human Race to death!

Sure enough.

As Liu Miaoer's pink poisonous mist enveloped him, Zheng Yi's expression changed drastically.

His movement speed slowed down, and even his complexion turned ashen gray.

Even the surrounding wood and Hua Cao were being corroded at a speed visible to the naked eye under the shroud of this pink poison.

Even Zheng Yi felt excruciating pain all over his body, and his entire being was almost falling into a paralyzed state.

Not paying attention for a moment, he was bitten by a venomous snake under his feet.

"Damn it...!"

He let out an angry roar and took a violent step forward, his Internal Energy and magical power surging once again. Disregarding his own injuries, he formed his right hand into a fist, channeled it through his Meridians, and punched directly toward Liu Miaoer's direction!

"Boom!"

Between the human and the demon, a violent roaring sound even echoed out.

Because of Zheng Yi's punch, the pink mist even directly turned into a fist of pink poisonous fog, fiercely smashing onto Liu Miaoer's body.

Who would have thought that Liu Miaoer would just wave her hand casually, forming a pink magical power protective shield in front of her, easily blocking Zheng Yi's dying blow.

"Damn it...!"

Zheng Yi cursed inwardly. As the toxins in his body increased, the True Qi and magical power within him immediately scattered and faded away, leaving him with no ability to resist whatsoever.

Even if he possessed copper skin and Tie Gu, and even if his True Qi protected his body, he still couldn't block the innate venom of Liu Miaoer, this great demon!

"Tear him apart!"

Liu Miaoer pointed hatefully at Zheng Yi, and the venomous snakes all over the ground rushed toward Zheng Yi like madmen.

They bit and tore at his body bite by bite, swallowing his flesh and blood mouthful by mouthful.

"Ah!"

"Ahhhh!!!"

The excruciating pain of ten thousand snakes devouring his body caused even someone as resilient in character as Zheng Yi to cry out in misery.

Under the blessing of the Heavens Wrath and Human Complaint destiny, this pain was amplified tenfold!

His mind collapsed almost at this very instant!

However.

The resentment of eight lifetimes supported him. A pair of blood-red eyes stared fixedly at the unconscious Liu Linger and Liu Miaoer, who was treating Liu Linger's injuries.

Until his own eyes were bitten to pieces and devoured by several colorful venomous snakes!

In a mere dozen breaths of time, all the flesh and blood on his body was completely torn away, and even the tiny bits of flesh in the cracks of his bones were eaten clean!

"Daring to touch my sister, I will make sure not even a trace of your bone slag is left!"

With an order given.

The densely packed venomous snakes coiled around the skeleton remaining from Zheng Yi's corpse, their sharp and fine fangs continuously gnawing on his skull.

The bones were bitten into bone slag and devoured by the snake swarm, leaving not a single shred behind.

Heavens Wrath and Human Complaint, a hundredfold agony.

In a daze, Zheng Yi's figure appeared inside a gigantic frying cauldron.

Fierce flames burned, and the giant frying cauldron, as vast as a lake, rolled wildly.

Zheng Yi appeared right in the dead center of that huge frying cauldron. No matter which direction he swam, he couldn't swim out of the range of the scalding oil.

"Ah!!"

"Ahhhhh!!!!"

He immediately screamed in excruciating pain. In just a few short seconds, Zheng Yi's entire body was fried completely clean by this scalding oil cauldron.

Even his bones were fried into powder, disappearing without a trace.

The punishment of the frying cauldron!

Above the snake swarm, when no one was paying attention, a pair of blood-red pupils burning with flames suddenly appeared!

The phantom of an infant, looking only three or four years old, slowly emerged.

Wrapped around his belly was a blood-colored bellyband painted with a black lotus!

It was precisely Zheng Yi!

For some reason, he, whose original physique was over two meters tall, had once again turned into the appearance of a toddler at this moment.

The ghost child bellyband wrapped around his body was emitting a mournful blood-red light.

In an instant.

One after another, the figures of children drifted over from all corners of the palace.

Attracted by the ghost child bellyband, they all gathered together.

Their cyan-white faces and bodies had pitch-black pupils that turned slightly red.

An incomparably dense grievance was condensing right here.

If anyone were outside the palace, they would even be able to see that above this palace, black clouds and mists had appeared, almost covering nearly half the sky!

The grievance soared straight into the sky!

Black clouds pressing down on the city, wanting to crush it!!!

Looking at the dense infant remnant souls and grievances around him, his eyes turned completely blood-red once again.

With a gulp of his mouth, the surrounding infant remnant souls and grievance souls were actually sucked into his body.

As these infant remnant souls and grievance souls disappeared, the Yin Qi and grievance inside his body grew even denser.

Destiny: Corpse-Eating Ghost!!!

[Yellow Rank Destiny: Corpse-Eating Ghost. You can restore a certain amount of physical strength and Mental Energy by consuming the corpses of living beings.]

After Zheng Yi was devoured by ten thousand snakes and endured incomparable agony, an even more powerful fierce ghost was born: a spirit child!

Under the bonus of the Corpse-Eating Ghost destiny, the spirit child additionally possessed the destiny of soul devouring!

Corpse-Eating Ghost!

Originally, it required consuming the corpses of living beings.

But under the blessing of the Heavens Wrath and Human Complaint destiny, a bizarre change occurred: even the souls of living beings could be devoured!

Devour Yin souls to strengthen oneself!

Soul-Devouring Spirit Child!

"Screech!"

Zheng Yi let out a piercing screech, his crimson eyes staring fixedly at Liu Linger and Liu Miaoer on the ground.

Especially that crimson demonic core floating mid-air!

The Soul-Devouring Spirit Child could not only devour Yin souls and fierce ghosts, but could also devour the vitality and souls of living humans!

"Die!!!"
