Chapter 38 Zhou Huaijin
Zhao Kui's expression turned cold, and his eyes flashed with murderous intent.
"court death!"
The demonic energy surged from the machete, and the blade light was like a waterfall, slashing towards Yun Weiyang with an unstoppable momentum.
Yun Weiyang took a step back, effortlessly dodging the attack, and pointed behind Zhao Kui.
"Your demonic cultivation is lacking; let me help you level up."
Zhao Kui was stunned. Before he could understand Yun Weiyang's words, he heard a loud noise behind him and turned around abruptly.
The Hercules Demon's right claw had opened at some point, its five sharp claws gripping Zhao Kui's waist and abdomen like iron hooks. The demonic claw tightened continuously, piercing through Zhao Kui's Taoist robe and embedding itself into his flesh.
"Ah!" Zhao Kui cried out in pain, staring incredulously at the Mighty Demon God: "You... what are you doing! Let me go!"
Zhao Kui frantically activated the restriction, trying to regain control of the Mighty Demon God. The restriction runes flashed in his eyes, and the Mighty Demon God's body trembled slightly, as if struggling. But the next moment, another restriction lit up inside the Mighty Demon God's body. It was extremely weak, but it was like a wedge, firmly blocking the operation of the restriction inside the Mighty Demon God's body.
The two sets of restrictions collided and entangled within the Hercules Demon's body, with Zhao Kui clearly gaining the upper hand. However, he did not have time to completely erase the other restriction.
Zhao Kui's face turned a deep purplish-red, and his bones creaked and groaned as the demonic claws tightened around him, as if they were about to break at any moment.
"When...when did you...learn...the Demon-Suppressing Techniques...?"
Yun Weiyang walked to the side of the Hercules Demon and patted its thick arm, as if patting an obedient dog.
"You knew perfectly well that I was cultivating the 'Demon Seal Scripture,' so why did you dare to entangle with me for so long?" Yun Weiyang tilted her head, looking at Zhao Kui. "Don't you know that the 'Demon Seal Scripture' can alter and replicate the memories of all living beings?"
Zhao Kui's pupils contracted sharply. He had indeed learned about the general abilities of the "Demon Seal Scripture" from Yin Xuanling, but no one in the Nine Nether Sect had mastered this Heavenly Art in so many years. Not to mention Zhao Kui, even Yin Xuanling didn't have a deep understanding of the "Demon Seal Scripture." They simply thought that the so-called alteration and replication of memories in the "Demon Seal Scripture" should have various limitations. Who knew that the abilities of the "Demon Seal Scripture" were even more bizarre than they had imagined.
Zhao Kui turned to look at Yun Weiyang, his eyes full of pleading.
Yun Weiyang smiled with narrowed eyes and patted the leg of the Hercules Demon.
"Here you go."
The Hercules opened its mouth wide, its jaws splitting to its ears, revealing countless fangs that crisscrossed like spears and halberds, each gleaming with a chilling light.
Zhao Kui let out a desperate roar.
Click!
With a single bite, the Hercules took Zhao Kui's upper body and disappeared into its gaping maw. Its fangs sliced through flesh and bone, producing a sickening cracking sound.
Hercules chewed a few times, crushing the flesh and bones between his teeth with a crunching sound, before swallowing it whole.
In just a few bites, Zhao Kui vanished from the world, leaving not a single drop of blood behind.
After devouring its master, the Hercules' aura was significantly enhanced. Its iron-black color became even deeper, and the claws on its paws grew longer, gleaming with a cold light.
The training ground was deathly silent.
The disciples in the stands stared in disbelief at this scene.
"Zhao Kui...was eaten by his own demon?"
"The Demonic Seal Scripture...this is the Demonic Seal Scripture?"
"This is too eerie..."
On the high platform, Shen Longlin's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he chuckled, "Interesting, very interesting. This kid's application of the 'Demon Seal Scripture' is more than just the beginning."
Zuo Shulong's face was gloomy. He didn't speak, but glanced at Yin Xuanling and then at Yun Weiyang, his eyes flickering.
Yan Qihui remained smiling, his gaze deep as he stared at Yun Weiyang.
Nong Tingshi looked at Yun Weiyang with a relaxed expression, his face expressionless.
Yin Xuanling stood on the high platform, his face ashen, staring at the blood-soaked Mighty Demon God in the arena, then at Yun Weiyang standing next to the Demon God God, whose white robe was spotless, a sinister glint in his eyes.
"Useless." Yin Xuanling muttered under his breath, then turned and nodded to one of the disciples behind him.
The disciple understood and flashed towards the training ground.
On the training ground, Yun Weiyang raised his head. The Mighty Demon stood beside him, its iron-black body resembling a statue under the starlight. Bloodstains and bits of flesh still clung to the corners of the Mighty Demon's mouth, making it appear particularly ferocious in the dim light.
Yun Weiyang patted the leg of the Hercules Demon and calmly looked around.
"Next."
A young man in white appeared opposite Yun Weiyang. He had a handsome face and a smiling expression. He did not look like a disciple of the demonic path, but rather like a well-read Confucian scholar.
The young man in white clasped his hands in a respectful greeting as he landed in front of Yun Weiyang, his smile friendly.
"Junior Brother Yun, my name is Zhou Huaijin. Please enlighten me."
Yun Weiyang glanced at Zhou Huaijin, but did not return the greeting or even speak; she simply waved her hand.
With a roar, the Hercules Demon's iron-black body, as large as a small mountain, pounced on Zhou Huaijin.
Zhou Huaijin's smile remained unchanged as he flicked his sleeve.
A chilling aura emanated from his sleeves, like a thick black fog, instantly enveloping an area of several dozen feet in radius.
A series of mournful howls echoed from the ghostly mist, and countless twisted figures emerged from it. Some were bleeding from their seven orifices, some were decapitated, and some had their internal organs exposed. Each of these vengeful ghosts presented a gruesome death.
Hundreds of fierce ghosts surged out of the ghostly mist like a black tide, colliding with the mighty demon god.
The Hercules waved its claws, tearing several vengeful ghosts to pieces with a single blow. But there were too many ghosts, swarming in from all directions, their claws tearing and their sharp teeth gnawing, like a swarm of ants attacking a giant elephant.
The roar of the Hercules echoed through the ghostly mist, its movements grew slower and slower, and the wounds on its body multiplied.
With a flick of his right hand, Zhou Huaijin sent a white banner flying from his sleeve into his palm. With a swing of the banner, hundreds of fierce ghosts transformed into a giant ghost claw, which gripped the mighty demon god tightly and dragged him into the banner.
The banner rippled, and the roar of the mighty demon abruptly ceased.
A low gasp rippled through the stands.
"Zhou Huaijin's Hundred Ghosts Banner has improved again."
"The Mighty Demon God at least possessed the combat power of a Dao Embryo, and he was just captured like that?"
On the high platform, Shen Longlin looked at the eerie Zhou Huaijin and said, "What a load of nonsense, all flashy and frivolous."
Zuo Shulong glanced at Shen Longlin and snorted coldly. This disciple was from his Blood Fragrance Pavilion.
Yin Xuanling looked at Yun Weiyang, who was surrounded by vengeful ghosts, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. Zhou Huaijin was the second person he sent, and his strength was far superior to Zhao Kui's. He wanted to see how Yun Weiyang would turn the tables.
On the training ground, Zhou Huaijin held the Hundred Ghosts Banner, his smile as friendly as ever.
"Junior Brother Yun, what do you think of my Hundred Ghosts Divine Power?"
Yun Weiyang didn't answer, looking at the banner in Zhou Huaijin's hand, her tone calm: "You cultivate the 'Yama Book,' right? Do you have any other methods?"
