175: Like a God and a Demon, Shepherding a Hundred Miles (asking for monthly tickets)
“Bang!”
The cave vibrated.
A low growl sounded.
A black wolf was slammed against the cave wall, then fell down.
In front of it, several small demons lay scattered, and in the center, two muscular “badgers” had grown to nine feet tall, their plump bellies having migrated to their upper bodies, transforming into muscle blocks, their fur shimmering with a faint golden light.
The Benba duo had overestimated their eloquence; after a performance where they even shouted slogans like “Are kings, nobles, generals, and ministers born with special blood?”, they were met with the gazes of several small demons from A Meng Mountain who looked at them as if they were idiots, saying the two fools were trying to harm them, and then they started fighting, even wanting to tie up the Benba duo to claim credit.
Furious, the Benba duo ultimately chose to subdue them by force.
Although five or six small demons from A Meng Mountain included three or four in the Second Realm, their Physical Bodies, nourished by the blood and flesh of the Heavenly Gate, were immeasurably stronger than these.
“What the hell do you two want to do?!” The black wolf was truly exasperated; these two badgers were speaking erratically and mysteriously, sometimes wanting to surrender to the city, and other times urging them to rebel against the city’s adults. Wasn’t this just seeking death?
“Follow our great…”
Ben Boer Ba was just about to speak when suddenly the ground shook, and the cave hummed and trembled.
An earth-shattering tiger roar, a vast oppressive force, spread through the Void Realm.
The small demons of A Meng Mountain felt a tremor in their Souls, and they shivered in fear, “This is…”
“This is our adult.”
As soon as he finished speaking,
“Rumble!”
Stones cascaded down the cave, which was on the verge of collapsing from the tremors.
The group of small demons, startled, quickly ran out of the cave, only to be horrified by the sight in the mountain forest at night. Countless birds flapped their wings and flew away in alarm, and many beasts rustled through the forest, fleeing desperately towards the west.
They saw a massive tiger body several miles away, taller than the mountain forest, shimmering with golden light, continuously spitting out golden light from its mouth, driving the mountains.
Numerous birds and beasts, low with strands of golden light, like a golden tide, swept across the mountains and through the forests, surging towards the west.
“Is that your adult?” The small demons of A Meng Mountain were so scared their legs turned to jelly.
“Why aren’t you leaving? That’s our adult’s Divine Ability. Touch it and you’ll die instantly. If you don’t listen, our adult will get angry.”
The birds and beasts fleeing across the mountains brought a dense golden tide, rapidly approaching.
Indeed, the small demons saw in the distance a lone bird demon, caught in the chaotic flock of birds, touched by the golden light. Golden flames quickly ignited on its body, and a shrill scream echoed. In a breath’s time, it was burned to ashes.
The small demons of A Meng Mountain, seeing this, their faces changed dramatically. They no longer dared to disbelieve and fled towards the west.
Seeing this, the Benba duo quickly reverted to their plump original forms. Then the two demons leaped, spread their arms, and performed Body Integration in the Void Realm. Then, with a hop and a bounce, they chased after the fleeing small demons of A Meng Mountain, herding them like sheep, driving the small demons who tried to scatter into a single group, moving towards the west.
Thus, with the massive golden tiger body behind them, each step shaking the ground, not only did the birds and beasts in the mountain forest flee in alarm, but even the demons hidden in the forest were driven out.
Some had been discovered by the Contracted Demons before, others were well-hidden, but now, like a Dragon Overturning Rivers and Seas, everything in its path was flushed out, frantically fleeing in the opposite direction, following the beast tide army.
Anyone slow-footed or unlucky enough to be submerged by the golden tide instantly turned to dust.
This terrified the small demons in the eastern outskirts of Jiangan County, who screamed and fled in utter panic.
And all around these small demons, Chen Yuan’s group of Contracted Demons, like a pack of hunting dogs, gradually herded these fleeing demons, consolidating them into a single force.
The pig demon Zhu Ziqing, over two zhang long, with bristly fur as hard as spikes, acted as a tank, bringing up the rear.
Xiong Da, three zhang tall, flying low, controlling gray mist, swept and herded on the left side.
Qingniao, three chi in size, with a flowing green light all over its body, as fast as wind, hovered above, ready to strike.
As fast as fire, the Benba brothers, were on the left side...
And several miles behind them, Chen Yuan, in his true form as the Mountain Lord, was like a hunter, occasionally spitting out a mouthful of Golden Core True Qi. Each step he took covered hundreds of meters, shaking the heavens and earth, herding the beast tide towards the east of Jiangan County.
The Contracted Demons were too slow, so he decided to add fuel to the fire, determining to herd demons for a hundred miles, directly to Jiangan County.
And also let the demons in the Ten Thousand Mountains taste what it’s like to have a beast tide attack their city!
“Roar!”
His tiger eyes flickered with dazzling Divine light, and with an earth-shattering roar, his golden figure in the heavens and earth, like a blazing demonic shadow, herded its livestock across this mountainous land.
And under the pitch-black night, a golden tide horizontally spread for more than ten miles, surging westward, the black torrent in front being pushed forward.
Jiangan County, enveloped in the darkness of night, the entire county town was shrouded in an impenetrable blackness.
In the backyard of the county yamen, the candlelight flickered like a bean. The woman on the bed tossed and turned, so she patted her husband, who was lying beside her on his side.
“Husband, I’m a little scared. Recently, I feel like the people in the yamen have become very strange. Haven’t you noticed? Especially Mother. When I got up last night, I saw Mother eating a chicken in the kitchen. It was a live chicken, covered in blood. Do you think Mother has been possessed? Should we invite a sorcerer to take a look? But the city is sealed, and the Mengyun Temple outside the city is said to be very effective. Can you talk to Father and ask him to open the city gate?” A beautiful and delicate woman, wearing an embroidered mandarin duck Bellyband, fearfully leaned against her husband’s back, her eyes revealing traces of terror.
“Oh, go to sleep. It’s nothing. I know you’re scared. I even asked Mother this morning. She used to have delusions, and now they’re acting up again. I’ll have the servants get some medicine later, and she’ll be fine.” The man seemed a bit sleepy, his head turned to the side, his voice a little perfunctory.
“No, that’s absolutely not delusions!” The woman sat up from the bed, looking at her husband with some anger and some terror, recalling, “At that time, I gasped in surprise, and Mother looked at me. Her eyes, her eyes were green.”
“Oh?” The “husband” lying on his side suddenly had a strange voice, or rather, a chilling coldness that seeped into one’s bones, “Is it like this?”
As he spoke, a pair of eerie green eyes suddenly turned and met the woman’s gaze.
The woman’s pupils dilated, seemingly in disbelief, and a sharp scream erupted.
The man suddenly pounced on the woman. His originally fair and handsome face turned into a greenish, distorted one, his mouth wide open, closing on the terrified woman’s mouth.
The woman desperately struggled, whimpering, but the next second, something seemed to drill into her mouth, then stretched her throat, and slid down.
Then, the woman’s terrified eyes gradually turned an eerie green.
The scream also came to an abrupt halt.
At this moment, a sharp cold snort came from next door, “Why waste a wisp of a split Soul on a common, vulgar woman?”
“Mother, what’s there to be afraid of? Anyway, there’s still the whole city of people!” The man let out a childish, spoiled sound, white fur rising on his face, making him look unsettling.
