225: Kill another peak and you will gain 270,000 years of life
Meanwhile, in the Ten Thousand Demons Hall, inside the main peak.
On the huge palace at the mountain peak, the burly man had a gloomy expression.
"It must be him. I told you it was a Human Race spy, but you insisted it was from our Demon Domain."
Sitting opposite the burly man, the old man chuckled, "I don't think so. You haven't even seen his face, so what makes you say he's a Human Race spy?"
"Immediately after a Soul Transformation expert made a Breakthrough, my Yellow Demon Peak was destroyed. If it wasn't a Human Race spy, who else could do such a thing?"
"Tsk..." The old man clicked his tongue and said, "Couldn't it be that your Ten Thousand Demons Hall provoked him in the past? Instead of bickering with me here, you should hurry up and investigate."
The burly man leaned back in his chair, slowly exhaling a breath.
A moment later, he suddenly shook his head and raised a hand.
Immediately, an inexplicable energy fluctuation spread from the burly man's hand, enveloping the entire hall.
After doing all this, the burly man spoke again.
"Forget it..." The burly man said with a somewhat depressed expression, "Perhaps someone from my Ten Thousand Demons Hall did provoke him, which led to this retaliation. Let's drop this matter and consider it a favor to him."
The old man heard this and said with interest, "Weren't you just filled with rage?"
"It was just for show for the subordinates. If I were too indifferent, who would risk their lives for me in the future?" The burly man continued, "You also know, if one doesn't enter the Spirit Transformation Realm, they are ultimately an ant. What's there to be angry about when facing a bunch of consumables?"
"Not being angry is one thing, but don't you feel aggrieved after suffering such an injustice?"
"Aggrieved? Yes, a little."
"So many consumables, taking several years to gather, and then so many were killed in one go. The mountain was almost overturned. How could I not feel aggrieved?"
"But feeling aggrieved is useless. In the end, consumables are just consumables. Let alone one mountain, even if all the demons in these mountains of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall were killed, it would still be the same."
At this point, the burly man said with some profound meaning, "Trading their lives for a favor from someone in the same Realm is a profitable deal..."
The old man looked up.
"Who said demons aren't smart? Old man, I think your mind, Kunpeng Demon Emperor, is very sharp."
"I've never been stupid!"
"So what do you plan to do now?" The old man asked.
"What to do?" The burly man pondered for a moment, "Nothing. Let things be. I don't feel bad even if they're all killed. How about this, tomorrow, I'll follow his aura to search. It's best if I find him, but if I don't... he's also a Soul Transformation expert, so we'll definitely meet one day, right? At that time, if he doesn't give me an explanation, I will never let him off easily!"
The old man's eyelids twitched, his expression seemingly on the verge of laughter.
But he held back his laughter, and after a while, he spoke again, "Alright, this is your territory anyway. Since you've said so, if I were to say anything else, it would be my fault."
...Hun Ming Peak summit.
Jiang Lan had no intention of negotiating. Instead, he stood silently at the high point, watching the demons coming and going on the mountain.
This place seemed to have many more demons than the previous Yellow Demon Peak.
That makes sense.
After all, the Yellow Demon Peak's location was almost on the border, so it was normal for there to be fewer people.
No matter the place, the closer to the center, the more prosperous it tends to be.
And this Hun Ming Peak, geographically speaking, was much stronger than the Yellow Demon Peak.
So it was understandable that there were more demon Disciples here.
After observing the situation below, the smile on Jiang Lan's face grew even wider than before.
Not bad.
This place would probably allow him to gain a lot.
Since he already had the previous experience, this time, Jiang Lan directly followed suit.
He extended his palm, and a huge palm formed of True Qi, seemingly slow but actually extremely fast, pressed downwards.
Before Jiang Lan made his move, Hun Ming Peak was a calm and thriving scene.
But as Jiang Lan's palm descended, the multitude of demons on the mountain only felt the sky instantly darken.
Some who reacted faster quickly looked up towards the sky above their heads.
They didn't know until they looked, and upon seeing it, the pupils of these demons instantly constricted.
They saw the scene in mid-air, as if the end of the world had arrived.
A giant hand, covering the sky and sun, slowly moved towards the mountain peak.
Some demons were about to speak, but before they could make a sound, they watched as the giant palm approached from afar, and by now, it had already reached above their heads.
"Boom!!!!"
Rocks shattered, vegetation flew, and the ground shook.
In an instant, a massive number of demons, like a tide, died under Jiang Lan's single strike.
[Killed a Gathering Yuan Triple Realm demon, gained five hundred twenty-one years of Lifespan.]
[Killed a Mortal Shedding Double Realm demon, gained two thousand twenty years of Lifespan.]
[Killed a Mortal Shedding...]
[Killed...]
A series of text prompts rapidly scrolled across Jiang Lan's eyes.
So much so that Jiang Lan found it difficult to catch a specific piece of information.
He simply stopped looking and narrowed his eyes instead.
His face was filled with a look of contentment.
This influx of Lifespan, so comfortable.
In fact, although he had killed countless demons, Jiang Lan felt no guilt in his heart.
Although demons have emotions, can talk and laugh, and can run and jump.
But in Jiang Lan's eyes, demons were just demons.
Jiang Lan always firmly believed one thing.
Those not of my race are sure to have different intentions!
Therefore, except for the two special cases like Old Wolf and Wang Erniu, Jiang Lan would not experience any internal fluctuations when killing other demons.
It was like a butcher who had killed pigs his entire life; Jiang Lan didn't believe that he felt guilty after killing every single pig.
If a butcher wouldn't, then the number of demons Jiang Lan killed was far greater than the number of pigs an ordinary butcher killed.
So, it wasn't that Jiang Lan was cold-blooded and heartless, but rather that he had never, from beginning to end, considered himself and the demon kind to be the same species.
The roaring sound continued, lasting for almost half a quarter of an hour before the chaotic sounds completely disappeared.
Faintly, Jiang Lan could hear screams and cries coming from the mountain.
However, at this moment, Jiang Lan had no mind to care about those.
He looked at the panel... [Name: Jiang Lan]
[Cultivation: Soul Transformation Fifth Realm]
[Cultivation Technique: Kuang Lan Art]
[Martial Skills: Blazing Sun Demon Suppression Blade (Return to Simplicity), Flood Dragon Swim (Return to Simplicity), Hidden God Art (Return to Simplicity), Shadow Blade Art (Return to Simplicity)]
[Divine Ability: 72 Transformations of Di Sha (Perfection)]
[Remaining Lifespan: Two hundred fifty-nine thousand eight hundred ten years.]
[Can infuse Lifespan into Cultivation Techniques and skills to increase strength.]
[Can increase Lifespan by suppressing or killing demons.]
...Seeing the Lifespan number, Jiang Lan felt greatly relieved.
Good, it contributed almost an additional hundred thousand years compared to Yellow Demon Peak.
