10: Chapter 10: Battle! Even the early stage of spiritual infant must die

Lu Yuan was surrounded by a black mist, his face covered in blackTexture, his eyes bloodshot and wide open.

His entire body was covered in white fur. His aura, which was originally at Qi Sea Perfection, had shockingly transformed to the Early Stage of Spirit Infant Realm.

Jiang Xuan looked at Lu Yuan, who had become neither human nor ghost, and was also astonished, “What the hell, he transforms when he can’t win? A white-haired old monster?”

He didn’t know why, but this aura made him feel an intense aversion. An inexplicable irritation welled up in his heart.

“Jie jiejie… Hahaha, I, Ming Jiu, am finally out! Such rich vital Qi and blood, become this general’s blood food!”

Ming Jiu licked his tongue, saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth, as if he had seen delicious food, and rapidly charged towards Jiang Xuan.

The white-haired elder’s expression changed drastically. It was indeed a Demon Race member. He hadn’t expected that such a small Hegemon Sect would hide a Demon General.

Although his strength was not as great as before, he still possessed Spirit Infant Realm cultivation, which Jiang Xuan at his current stage could not contend with.

Just as he was about to make a move to resolve the situation, he suddenly noticed Jiang Xuan’s calm expression, showing no hint of panic.

“Hmm? This kid, could he still have a trump card? So be it, I want to see how many more surprises you can give me.”

However, he did not relax his vigilance. As long as the situation turned sour, he would immediately intervene. Jiang Xuan was his precious treasure now and absolutely could not suffer any mishaps.

Jiang Xuan continuously dodged Ming Jiu’s attacks. [Ding!] In his mind, the System’s voice suddenly rang out.

[System detects Demon Race aura. A mission is now issued.]

[Eliminate the Demon General before you, refine the Demon Race’s essence blood, and receive a reward of five thousand limit points and the Demon Race Divine Ability, Soul-Devouring Great Art.]

“A mission now? A Demon General?”

“Another five thousand limit points, and even a Divine Ability. Not bad.”

Jiang Xuan secretly pondered, “A Spirit Infant Realm won’t hurt me, and it’s only Early Stage. With my current strength, it might be worth a try.”

Since that’s the case, then battle!

Jiang Xuan stood firm, his eyes erupting with surging Battle Intent. His crimson blood surged like a rapid river, constantly impacting within his body.

A Spiritual Qi barrier rose around him, and he clenched his right fist, charging fiercely towards Lu Yuan.

The white-haired Ming Jiu looked at Jiang Xuan charging towards him, and his body paused, “Heh heh, foolish Human Race, daring to fight my Demon Race in Physical Body, you seek death.” After speaking, he also extended his fist and charged towards Jiang Xuan.

“Bang!” A dull sound rang out as the two fists instantly collided, forming a circular airflow that spread outwards. Both of them retreated dozens of feet simultaneously.

“Haha, exhilarating!” Jiang Xuan laughed loudly and charged again. Since his Transmigration until now, he hadn't had a truly satisfying battle.

His previous opponents were too weak. Only those whose Realm was higher than his were worthy of being his opponents!

“Bang, bang, bang!” Consecutive collision sounds rose and fell. In an instant, the two had exchanged dozens of blows.

Two figures, one black and one gold, continuously darted about. The buildings along the way had long turned into a pile of ruins, and the battle ripples in the air formed streams of Qi.

“Hahahaha, you little Demon General, you’re nothing special! Is the Demon Race all this kind of trash? Truly disappointing.” Jiang Xuan shook his head and mocked.

“Ah ah ah! You despicable Human Race junior, how dare you insult my Demon Race! If it weren’t for this general not having recovered to my peak, how could I let you be so presumptuous!

The Human Race should become the blood food of the Demon Race.” The white-haired Ming Jiu was furious. The bloodshot veins in his eyes became even redder.

While he was enraged, he was also secretly astonished. How could the Human Race have such a Prodigy? To possess such a strong Physical Body at the Qi Sea Realm.

One must know that the Human Race’s Physical Body had always been weak. What was going on with this person before him?

“I absolutely cannot let him live, otherwise, he will surely become a major hidden danger for my Demon Race in the future!”

“Bang!” The two figures once again retreated explosively from each other.

“Human Race blood food, you have some skill, but, this is where it ends.”

After speaking, the surrounding black mist actually began to boil, continuously rolling in the air.

“Ugh… Ah…” After a while, a tragic and terrifying low roar came from within. The ghostly wails sent shivers down one’s spine.

Jiang Xuan frowned slightly, the aversion in his heart growing stronger.

“Human Race, I will let you taste the feeling of being gnawed by evil spirits! Ten Thousand Ghosts Devour Soul, go!”

In an instant, from the pitch-black dense fog, countless black-mist-shrouded skull heads emerged, emitting bursts of roars. Their eyes glowed green as they darted towards Jiang Xuan. This aura was comparable to the Middle Stage of Spirit Infant Realm!

Jiang Xuan looked at the skull heads, which were mostly formed from the Souls of the Human Race, and a chill rose in his heart, “How many people must have been killed to refine these? You truly deserve to die!”

Subsequently, killing intent filled his eyes, “No matter what you are, I will break it with force!” Jiang Xuan roared, and the Spiritual Qi within his body surged.

“Divine Ability, Crimson Rock Dragon Scale Armor, activate!” Instantly, the crimson light on Jiang Xuan’s body became several times stronger than before, so dazzling it made people unable to open their eyes.

His entire body’s meridians surged, and in the blink of an eye, vivid crimson Dragon scales appeared on the surface of his skin!

At this moment, Jiang Xuan was in his strongest state. Dressed in crimson armor, with crimson Spiritual Qi flames floating around him, the Dragon-shaped mark on his brow flashed with an eerie light. His long hair fluttered in the wind, like a young God of War!

“This is… the aura of the Dragon Clan. How is this possible? You are a Human Race, how can you have the aura of the Dragon Clan, and even know a Dragon Clan Divine Ability? Who exactly are you!”

“Heh heh, the one who will take your life!” Jiang Xuan stopped wasting words. The Spiritual Qi in his hand transformed into a several-meter-tall great saber, which he swung towards the Demon General.

Those evil skull heads, upon touching the crimson glow around Jiang Xuan, scattered in all directions like mice seeing a cat, emitting shrill screams. In a short while, they disappeared.

Seeing that his last trump card was useless against Jiang Xuan, the white-haired Demon General completely panicked, “No… impossible! This general is from the noble Demon Race royal family, how could I possibly lose?!”

Jiang Xuan ignored the other party’s barking. He swung the golden great saber down forcefully, “Boom!” Ming Jiu was instantly slashed to the ground, forming a huge deep pit.

Jiang Xuan flew down and looked at the half-dead Devil Head in the pit with his Physical Body shattered, “Physical Body invincible? Is that all there is to it?”

“Cough cough…” Ming Jiu looked at Jiang Xuan with venomous eyes, using his last bit of strength to say,

“Human Race blood food, don’t be too pleased. When the Three Realms Battlefield reopens, all you Human Race Prodigies will surely be slaughtered clean by my race and become blood food! Hahahahaha…”

Jiang Xuan’s expression was indifferent, his tone cold, “At least, you won’t live to see it!” Then, he struck out with his right palm, and the latter instantly shattered into a mist of blood. Jiang Xuan casually waved his hand, collecting the blood.

[System, refine.] With the System’s intervention, in an instant, a drop of pitch-black blood formed, containing terrifying energy fluctuations within it.

“System, what’s the use of this?”

[Replying to Host, the Demon Race’s essence blood contains immense power. Currently, the Host cannot yet utilize it. As for its specific use, you will know in the future.]

“Oh, still playing riddles.” Jiang Xuan chuckled wryly.

[Warning to Host, there is mutual sensing among the Demon Race. They will sense the Demon Race’s essence blood on you. At that time, as long as it is sensed by the Demon Race, they will launch an endless pursuit against you until your death.]

Jiang Xuan’s face darkened, “Then why did you let me keep it? If I encounter an old Demon Race monster, wouldn’t I be dead?”

[Host, don’t worry. This is Human Race territory, there won’t be any old Demon Race monsters. The Demon General just now was an accident. Most are just small fries. This is also intentionally left behind to temper the Human Race.]

“Really?” Jiang Xuan always felt it was a bit unreliable.

Forget it, he didn’t believe he could be that unlucky. Even if they came, according to the System, the Demon Race’s essence blood was of great use to him. At that time, who would be the hunter and who would be the prey, was still hard to say.
