Chapter 794: Thousand Eyes
“Human race Void Amalgamation cultivator, bullying the weak with the strong, how utterly shameless! ”
The Mirror Demon transformed into a blood-red long rainbow and fled, feeling a terrifying escape light rapidly closing in from behind. That incomparably powerful Divine Consciousness locked onto it, causing its expression to change as it roared in fury.
“Naive. . . In a war between races, who cares about bullying the weak with the strong? When encountering the weaker, striking them dead is the norm! ”
Within the escape light, Fang Xi sneered.
He had obtained intelligence from the Xuanwu Pavilion, then concealed his tracks, using the Three-Phase Annihilation Art to transform into a Return to Void demonic cultivator practicing the 'Myriad Manifestations True Demon Arts', only then managing to painstakingly lure out this Mirror Demon. How could he possibly allow it to escape?
If it weren't for the requirement to capture it alive rather than kill it, with his divine abilities, he would have annihilated this Mirror Demon countless times over.
Even now, taking down the opponent was not a particularly difficult matter.
He raised a hand, and the Blood Fiend Banner appeared. Streams of blood-red rivers descended from the sky, within which countless silver Phoenix Seal Scripts flickered erratically.
This was naturally to attract the attention of the Thousand-Eyed Birds.
Although attracting a flock of Thousand-Eyed Birds would mean nine deaths out of ten for the Mirror Demon, compared to certain death, a smart individual would still make this choice.
Seeing this, Fang Xi’s expression subtly changed.
Provoking a Thousand-Eyed Bird flock in the Demonic Heaven Mountain Range might lead to being pursued by a group of Void Amalgamation-grade ancient beasts.
“It seems I still can’t conserve my vital energy,” he murmured.
He murmured, forming hand seals. A silver talisman appeared, its countless silver patterns shimmering like a starry river – it was precisely the 'Great Void Teleportation Talisman' obtained from Trapped Sky Island!
The Great Void Teleportation Talisman suddenly burst open, transforming into countless silver light patterns that enveloped Fang Xi.
At the same time, he performed a hand seal and spat a mouthful of green vital energy onto the Blood Fiend Banner.
Crimson radiance surged wildly from the Blood Fiend Banner, and individual silver Phoenix Seal Scripts floated within, subtly forming the true shape of a silver phoenix!
The phoenix's true form rapidly merged with the silver radiance of the Great Void Teleportation Talisman, and then Fang Xi's figure vanished in a flash of silver light.
When he reappeared, he was already by the Mirror Demon’s side!
This was using the Blood Fiend Banner’s void power to forcefully manipulate the 'Great Void Teleportation Talisman', achieving an effect similar to 'instant transmission'.
Seeing this, the Mirror Demon was immediately scared out of its wits.
But before it could react, Fang Xi stretched out five fingers, and streams of Taiyi Green Wood Divine Light pierced the heavens and earth, resembling chains, or perhaps bars, sealing the demon within a cage.
“Damn it! ”
The Mirror Demon roared, pulling out a pitch-black demonic blade from its mouth.
The hilt of this demonic blade was a ghastly ghost's head, and its mouth seemed to be biting something.
Fang Xi saw it clearly: it was a human cultivator’s Nascent Soul.
Crunch!
At this moment, the fiendish ghost incessantly wriggled its mouth, rapidly devouring that Nascent Soul.
Following this, the blade was shrouded in chilling demonic qi, faintly emitting the wails of countless cultivators.
“A demonic artifact similar to the Divine Infant Sword? It also seems to possess some void-related abilities. . . ”
A cold sneer played on Fang Xi's lips as he formed a hand seal with one hand and urged it.
A stream of Taiyi Green Wood Divine Light immediately transformed into a verdant flying sword, stirring up thousands of sword qi. Sword light fell like mist and rain, thread by thread.
“Kill! ”
The Return to Void demonic cultivator held the demonic blade with both hands and spat another mouthful of essence blood onto it.
The demonic blade howled, emitting a mournful blade aura. Black and red radiance shot up into the sky, yet it was easily nullified by the countless threads of green sword silk.
Now, Fang Xi, using the Taiyi Green Wood Divine Light as a flying sword, was purely overwhelming his opponent with tyrannical magical power, truly exuding the aura of a sword cultivator who could break all techniques with a single sword strike.
Thud!
The green flying sword sliced through the black-red blade light, then flashed once more.
A clear, melodious sword cry echoed as it mercilessly struck the demonic blade, causing a massive gap to appear on the blade's surface.
But the Mirror Demon, who should have been holding the demonic blade, had suddenly vanished.
Its escape light flashed.
In a corner of the green cage, an ancient beast-grade 'Thousand-Eyed Bird' appeared. Its entire body was covered in yellow feathers, and it was adorned with eye after eye.
It now opened its beak, emitting a mournful screech.
Amidst the cries, demonic thunders, one after another, slammed into the chains formed by the Taiyi Green Wood Divine Light, causing countless green spiritual lights to subtly ripple.
Bang!
Just then, dense layers of wind blades landed on the outer perimeter of the green cage, causing Fang Xi's expression to stir.
His Divine Consciousness swept out, only to see that at some unknown point, a dense mass of black shadows had appeared in the sky.
Those were, astonishingly, ancient beast 'Thousand-Eyed Birds'. Seeing a 'kinsman' trapped, they grew even more enraged, pursuing with incredibly astonishing escape speed.
“Clever, indeed. . . but unfortunately, your Void Demon Thunder cannot break my Taiyi Cage! ”
Fang Xi smiled faintly, his voice like a heavy hammer, smashing heavily into the Mirror Demon's Sea of Consciousness: “This Void Demon Thunder penetrates all things, yet it cannot break a void-type supreme treasure. . . ”
Within the Taiyi Green Wood Divine Light, which had been swept by thunder, Phoenix Seal Scripts suddenly appeared, one after another.
“Why are you so clear about this? ”
The Mirror Demon felt as if it had suffered a Divine Consciousness attack, its head throbbing as if it would split. Before it could react, emerald flying needles pierced its body, making it feel as though its demonic soul could not operate. It plunged down, and Fang Xi collected it into the Earthly Immortal Spiritual Realm.
‘How could I not be clear about your cultivation method? ’
‘Alas, although the Void Demon Thunder is a rather sharp demonic lightning spell for breaking restrictions, my void attainments, combined with the Taiyi Green Wood Divine Light, are stronger than many void-type supreme treasures. . . ’
Fang Xi sighed with emotion.
Just then, a clear bird cry sounded.
Several surges of Void Amalgamation-grade magical power fluctuations appeared. The cage formed by the Taiyi Green Wood Divine Light let out a mournful cry, then violently burst open, transforming into green leaves that burned in mid-air. . .
“Void Amalgamation-grade Thousand-Eyed Birds? ”
Fang Xi watched the three incomparably massive yellow birds approaching in unison, his expression a touch solemn: “What a pity. . . I still haven’t mastered the Thousand-Eyed Bird transformation. . . ”
The 'Transform into Myriad Things' secret art within the Myriad Manifestations True Demon Arts requires, as a prerequisite, sufficient understanding of the object to be transformed into, only then can it be simulated with the demonic art.
The Mirror Demon had stayed in the Demonic Heaven Mountain Range for quite some time, naturally gaining a deep understanding of the Thousand-Eyed Birds, and thus mastered this transformation.
As for Fang Xi, he had only just arrived and had not dissected any Thousand-Eyed Birds, so he naturally did not know this transformation.Otherwise, it would have been entirely possible to turn the Thousand-Eyed Birds from foes into friends.
“However, this Mirror Demon's mere Return to Void-grade secret art might not necessarily deceive the Thousand-Eyed Birds' vision. . . after all, this type of ancient beast possesses an inherently formidable ability to see through illusions, and their eyes are quite exceptional, capable of accelerating the cultivation of many powerful eye techniques. . . The Mirror Demon was merely making a desperate attempt just now, as there’s still hope in trying, but definite despair in not trying. ”
Chirp chirp!
Numerous Thousand-Eyed Birds cried out loudly.
Following this, streams of wind blades appeared in the void, carving out dazzling and inexplicable arcs under the command of the leading Thousand-Eyed Bird.
The void was torn apart, forming gusts of void storms.
In the blink of an eye, a storm stretching over ten thousand miles instantly formed. Even on the outer edges of the storm, there were already torn void rifts.
“This. . . ”
Daoist Friend Zhuo, with his Wood Spirit Body, carrying the heavily injured red-robed Daoist nun, had just flown less than ten thousand miles when he witnessed this scene, and an expression of fear and shock involuntarily appeared on his face.
This kind of void rift, even if only on the periphery, would surely mean certain death for him if he were to be caught within it!
“Who knows which cultivator it is, so unlucky as to be targeted by the Thousand-Eyed Birds. . . Do they not know the taboos of the Demonic Heaven Mountain Range? ”
“Previously, the Mirror Demon was being pursued; could it be that this was done by this individual, an elder of our human race? ”
Daoist Friend Zhuo had no intention of stopping, instead urging his escape light even faster, fleeing towards the periphery.
After all, such a Void Amalgamation-level battle was not something he could participate in.
‘I already secretly sent a message to my Uncle-Master when I encountered the Mirror Demon. . . I hope he can arrive soon. ’
The cultivator surnamed Zhuo secretly prayed in his heart.
...
Chirp chirp!
A Void Amalgamation-grade Thousand-Eyed Bird let out a long cry, firing beams of various colored light from the eyes all over its body.
Within the dazzling, multicolored divine light, a terrifying power was contained, capable of slaying Return to Void cultivators and gravely injuring even Void Amalgamation cultivators.
Fang Xi chuckled lightly, tugging the Blood Fiend Banner.
Swish!
Layer upon layer of blood sea appeared, concealing him within. The Phoenix Seal Scripts shone with silver light, like countless silver mirrors, absorbing all the incoming radiance.
Following this, Fang Xi inverted the Blood Fiend Banner.
The blood sea poured forth, and within it, countless divine lights rained down like arrows, filling the sky, accompanied by the mournful cries of the Thousand-Eyed Birds.
Yellow feathers drifted down across the sky.
Apart from the three Void Amalgamation-grade Thousand-Eyed Birds, many ancient beasts and primordial ancient beast-grade Thousand-Eyed Birds let out mournful cries, pierced through by the various strange lights. Their corpses fell from the sky, then vanished in flashes of green light.
Seeing this, the eyes of the Void Amalgamation-grade Thousand-Eyed Birds seemed to turn completely red, as they madly pursued Fang Xi.
Fang Xi, however, sneered, fighting as he retreated, preparing to slowly wear down this flock of Thousand-Eyed Birds until they were all dead.
The eyes of the three Void Amalgamation-grade Thousand-Eyed Birds were enough for him to cultivate several extremely high-grade eye techniques.
...
Bang!
A Mu'an beast fell to the ground, and from its two massive horns, countless birds and beasts rapidly fled to escape.
“Many thanks for Uncle-Master’s life-saving grace. . . ”
Daoist Friend Zhuo, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, cradling the red-robed Daoist nun in his arms, bowed in gratitude to a large man in purple robes.
In the large man's hand was a jade talisman, upon which purple lightning gleamed continuously.
“It’s a good thing your Uncle-Master happened to be here gathering that Azure Violet Heavenly Thunder to refine the 'Heavenly Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman'. . . otherwise, I truly might not have arrived in time to rescue you. ”
Seeing the two in such a disheveled state, the purple-robed large man couldn't help but ask: “What danger did my grand-disciple encounter? ”
If the enemy wasn't strong, or if rare resources were involved, he wouldn't mind casually taking revenge for them.
“It was that Mirror Demon. . . ”
Daoist Friend Zhuo gave a bitter smile and recounted the events.
Suddenly, the purple-robed large man's expression changed. His Divine Consciousness had already captured a green escape light.
And indeed, behind that green escape light, three Thousand-Eyed Birds were relentlessly pursuing.
But for some unknown reason, many of the ancient beast and primordial ancient beast-grade Thousand-Eyed Birds had vanished.
“Almost there. ”
A dark green rune appeared in Fang Xi’s hand, and the power of his Spirit Domain instantly unfolded.
Among the three Thousand-Eyed Birds behind him, two had their speed drastically reduced!
One of them, however, couldn't turn in time, and filled with towering rage, it charged directly towards Fang Xi.
Fang Xi laughed heartily. His Heavenly Demon True Body appeared behind him, and instead of retreating, he advanced, violently colliding with the Thousand-Eyed Bird.
Chirp!
Amidst a mournful cry, yellow feathers drifted down across the sky.
Following this, the humanoid Heavenly Demon True Body grabbed one of the Thousand-Eyed Bird’s wings and brutally tore it!
Rip!
The Thousand-Eyed Bird shrieked miserably, half of its wing torn out by the root, its countless eyes rolling back from the pain. . .
Seeing this scene, the purple-robed large man suddenly said nothing. He controlled the Heavenly Mansion Divine Thunder Talisman, transforming into a streak of purple lightning, and whisked his grand-disciple surnamed Zhuo away, shooting backward.
“That. . . is that still a Void Amalgamation cultivator? To actually be able to tear apart a Void Amalgamation-grade ancient beast with bare hands. . . ”
Daoist Friend Zhuo was dumbfounded, muttering to himself, involuntarily glancing at his own Uncle-Master, wanting to make a comparison.
When he saw the other party's grim expression, he immediately shut his mouth. . .
