448: Kill the demons, and the seven Rongtian corpse puppets besiege the Xuanyin Jiao King

A majestic Demon Commander, the Shen Yue Great Marsh Xuan Yin蛟 King’s top general, was inexplicably killed.

This was a Demon Commander, not some random nobody; a powerful expert on par with a Human Race Rongtian powerhouse, yet he was instantly killed without any power to resist. It was too shocking.

Everyone remained stunned for a long time.

Golden Shark General’s body fell, his eyes still filled with terror, confusion, and doubt. He couldn't understand why he, a powerful Demon Commander of the second stage, would be so easily instantly killed by a mere youth, dying an inexplicable death.

However, the attack did not end.

The extreme Divine Sense continued to blast towards the two dozen Heaven-Level Demons rushing to intercept.

In just a few breaths.

Pfft!

Like a sudden thunderclap, blood splattered.

Two dozen Heaven-Level Demons were instantly killed, their blood staining thousands of meters of sky.

The entire Kui Xing Island was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Wu Chunqiu’s pupils flashed with disbelief and extreme fear.

Why had Chu Jiang’s strength become so terrifying? It had only been a few days since they last met, damn it.

Killing Heaven and Earth Realm experts was like slaughtering dogs. Even a great Demon Commander of the second stage couldn’t withstand a single blow from him. How were others supposed to compete?

“Did he Breakthrough to the Rongtian?” Wu Chunqiu’s face grew even uglier.

He had already dealt with Wu Ling King, which was why he could safely enter the Shen Yue Great Marsh.

“It’s over! The Kui Xing Island’s general has been killed!”

Han Ya looked terrified. Didn’t this person fear offending the Xuan Yin蛟 King?

This person’s strength was probably not much weaker than that old monster in the golden giant coffin.

Hiss…

The temperature between heaven and earth plummeted.

Then, Chu Jiang’s hand revealed a dark blue bow, emitting chills. Nine ice arrows instantly shot out towards Kui Xing Island.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The Void Realm itself was frozen, and faint ice flowers bloomed in the sky.

“Not good!”

On Kui Xing Island, countless people’s expressions drastically changed. They prepared to flee, only to find that the bone-chilling ice arrows were not aimed at them.

Instead, they pierced through hundreds of Demon Commander guards who had come to reinforce.

For a moment, the entire Kui Xing Island was filled with demon ice sculptures, scattered everywhere.

[Golden Shark General, Demon Commander Second Stage, responsible for guarding Kui Xing Island, Xuan Yin蛟 King’s top general, gained 20,000 years of Lifespan.]

[Golden Carp Heaven Demon, Heaven-Grade Seventh Stage, Kui Xing Island leader, gained 7,000 years of Lifespan.]

[Silver Shark Heaven Demon, Heaven-Grade Third Stage, Kui Xing Island leader, gained 8,200 years of Lifespan.]

…

[Blood Shark, Earth-Grade Third Stage, gained 2,400 years of Lifespan.]

[Divine Moon Succubus, Earth-Grade Tenth Stage, gained 1,200 years of Lifespan.]

[Divine Moon Prawn, Profound-Grade Ninth Stage, gained 1,000 years of Lifespan.]

…

[demon life essence: 1,010,000 years.]

[Own Lifespan: 24,000 years.]

…

“Great!”

Chu Jiang’s expression showed a hint of joy. He had agreed with Corpse Old Ancestor that he would handle the demons, and Corpse Old Ancestor would handle the humans.

As a result, Corpse Old Ancestor had killed all the way, but hadn't seen a single demon in the demon strongholds. Here, however, he found four hundred true demons and over twenty Heaven-Grade demons.

They directly contributed nearly a million years of Lifespan to him.

Killing those of the same realm was satisfying; killing one was like killing four.

Killing across realms was even better; killing one was like killing six.

If there were a few more demon islands like this, he would surely get rich.

…

“So, they’re here to eliminate demons. False alarm!”

Many of the heavily-sentenced criminals showed smiles. As long as they weren't here to kill them, it was fine. At worst, they would just move to another place.

The Shen Yue Great Marsh was so vast, with several islands similar to Kui Xing Island, each controlled by a different demon lord.

Wu Chunqiu’s eyes were shadowed as he secretly retreated behind the crowd.

Without looking back, he decisively fled.

Based on his understanding of Chu Jiang, he wouldn't let this group of people go.

Kui Xing Island was basically full of heavily-sentenced criminals wanted by the imperial court, each stained with blood. Would Chu Jiang let them off? Impossible.

But he didn’t warn the others, as the saying goes, “let others die, not me.”

Without them to block the calamity and buy him time, how could he escape?

However, Wu Chunqiu was not the only one who recognized Chu Jiang’s identity.

Just as Chu Jiang instantly killed Golden Shark Demon Commander, at least seven or eight streaks of light quickly fled from the city on Kui Xing Island.

“Did the Old Ancestor tell you to leave?”

Corpse Old Ancestor’s cold voice, as if capable of freezing the Soul, emanated from the golden coffin.

Immediately, three Rongtian Puppets left the golden giant coffin, striking out with a palm, raising hundreds of spatial storms that tore through the Void Realm. All those who tried to escape fell, spitting blood.

The airspace was instantly sealed.

“Damn it!”

“Ah… you bastards!”

Wu Chunqiu was furious, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, his eyes spitting fire. He was so close to escaping.

All his efforts were in vain.

Rongtian.

Even a Puppet was far from something a Heaven and Earth Realm expert could resist.

“Damn it, that old monster in the giant coffin is here to kill us!”

The smiles on everyone’s faces instantly vanished; they could no longer laugh.

Han Ya, within the city, was already in despair. Seven great Rongtian Puppets—this was simply a death trap. Who could resist?

Just as everyone was in despair,

“Killing this King’s island-guarding general and my clansmen is a crime punishable by death. Since you’ve come, all of you shall stay and kneel to apologize to them!”

An extremely chilling voice echoed between heaven and earth.

Then, the newcomer, clad in dark green scales, with three pairs of barb-like bone horns growing from his brow, and vertical slit pupils—one snow-white, one dark green, as if day and night flowed within them—appeared.

Wherever he passed, he stirred up giant waves hundreds of meters high. A green royal throne materialized beneath him.

The speaker was none other than Xuan Yin蛟 King, one of the three overlords of the Shen Yue Great Marsh.

With a wave of his large hand, the three Rongtian Puppets were sent flying backward.

“Look… it’s Xuan Yin蛟 King! We’re saved!”

Han Ya and the others cried tears of joy. Xuan Yin蛟 King had dominated the Shen Yue Great Marsh for over a thousand years, the second strongest expert in the Shen Yue Great Marsh, second only to Cangming Dragon Lord.

With his intervention, they would surely repel this group of strange individuals.

“This is Xuan Yin蛟 King, what a terrifying Aura!”

Some people on Kui Xing Island had lived there for hundreds of years but had never seen him; they only knew his name but not his person.

The Puppets, which could have easily suppressed all of them with a mere wave, were casually sent flying by Xuan Yin蛟 King, showing his strength.

After the Rongtian, each stage was like a separate heaven.

It was basically equivalent to the difference between Early Stage Qiankun and Middle Stage Qiankun. Without special means, being one stage higher meant easily defeating an enemy, and being two stages higher already meant easily suppressing and killing them.

“Chu Jiang, this time, Old Ancestor will see how you can still be so arrogant!”

Wu Chunqiu was overjoyed. This was indeed a turning point. Xuan Yin蛟 King would surely not let go of this huge benefit.

Seeing the Puppets defeated, most instantly wanted to continue fleeing.

Then, Chu Jiang stomped his foot, and the Void Realm rippled with countless waves.

Boom!

A gravity quagmire covered the entire city, forcing everyone to their knees.

Chu Jiang’s gaze calmly turned to Xuan Yin蛟 King.

Demon Commander Fifth Stage, his cultivation was indeed extraordinary.

He felt an extremely strong oppressive force from the other party. This Aura alone could only be endured by a handful of people on the Heaven-Grade ranking.

It was not something he could resist right now, unless he Breakthrough to the Rongtian, greatly increasing his combat power.

“Where did this beast come from, daring to act presumptuously in front of this Old Ancestor!”

“When this Old Ancestor was born, your father was still nursing!”

Corpse Old Ancestor’s cold voice rang out. A blood bead shot forth, and the seven great Puppets around the golden coffin instantly formed a mysterious great array, their Auras surging.

The seven great Rongtian Puppets simultaneously attacked Xuan Yin蛟 King.

Rumble!

The seven great Rongtian Puppets, attacking together, instantly caused a world-shattering commotion.

Xuan Yin蛟 King’s expression slightly changed.
