Chapter 458: Chapter 169: Sun and Moon Demon Body! Hong Xiang, the Vast Elephant!_3

“Is that Wind Sun Moon? What kind of Demon Art is this? It’s clearly far superior to any other Demon Monsters or Monster Warriors I’ve ever seen!”

Su Changkong’s eyelid twitched at the terrifying strike, alarmed in his heart.

If that punch were to land squarely, he would definitely be smashed to pieces!

Earlier, Su Changkong had sensed that among the three men in black robes, the biggest threat was this Wind Sun Moon. Indeed, it was so; he was an Innate Martial Artist with outstanding potential. After joining the Life-killing Meeting and being granted a mid-level Demon Monster Crystal Core, which he successfully merged with, he underwent rebirth and was far better than before.

At the moment, Zhong Yue had been severely injured by Su Changkong, almost to the point of death. He directly used the Demon Art ‘Sun and Moon Body’, splitting in two. The Moon Demon Body and the Ice Crystal Chi Dragon continued to struggle, wearing down its strength, while the Sun Demon Body went straight to kill, intervening in the great battle between Su Changkong and Zhong Yue, determined to annihilate Su Changkong!

“Interesting, not yet Innate but able to use nature’s spiritual energy?”

…

The Sun Demon Body made a thick, rough voice, slightly surprised.

“Die!”

But in the next second, the Sun Demon Body moved, its speed and strength reaching a level that ordinary Innate Martial Artists could only dream of. Dragging flames in its wake, it caught up with Su Changkong, who was retreating backwards, and reached out a massive hand toward Su Changkong’s throat, a wave of heat surging forth!

Just the Demon Flames entwining the Sun Demon Body alone would reduce to ashes anyone daring to make direct contact.

Su Changkong concentrated his spirit, and his white crane silhouette spiraled into a huge black-furred bear standing before Su Changkong, blocking the pounce of the Sun Demon Body.

“Boom!”

The big hand of the Sun Demon Body slapped against the colossal bear’s spectral form, exploding in a blaze of fire. The spectral bear, formed of spiritual energy, was violently hit, its form destabilizing and nearly dispersing.

“Chop!”

Meanwhile, Su Changkong himself stomped his foot down, appearing beside the Sun Demon Body. The Blade Gang of his Iron-Cutting Sword condensed; Blade Force propelled a combination of speed, strength, and technique, transforming into a cutting light capable of splitting anything, aiming a Splitting Cut at the Sun Demon Body’s neck.

“Hiss!”

The cut landed squarely on the Sun Demon Body’s neck, but to Su Changkong’s horror, the blade penetrated less than an inch deep. The Sun Demon Body was as hard as iron, hot as fire, completely beyond the current scope of what Su Changkong could handle!

The cut failed to sever the Sun Demon Body’s neck, and the red Demon Flames covering its body flared up, sending flames crawling up the blade, aiming to burn Su Changkong’s flesh to ashes.

The alert Su Changkong withdrew his sword and retreated, circulating his Giant Whale True Qi to block the advancing Demon Flames, and at the same time, he flicked his blade to fling away the spreading Demon Fire.

“Blade Force? Not bad! But if you want to injure me… you’ll need to condense Blade Intent,” said the Sun Demon Body in its coarse voice, slightly surprised. The less than an inch deep wound on its neck healed in a matter of breaths, and a cold smile emerged on its fire-covered face.

The Human Warrior before him was exceedingly monstrous, able to defeat Zhong Yue head-on while being less than Innate in cultivation, and even mastered Blade Force, possessing extreme talent in swordsmanship!

But to Wind Sun Moon, who was already an Innate Martial Artist and had merged with a mid-level Demon Monster Crystal Core, this was far from sufficient. Just his Sun Demon Body alone was enough to leave no burial ground for his enemy!

“Make your move!”

At that moment, Bai Yunhe commanded, intending not to strike at Wind Sun Moon, but leading three Innate Martial Artists towards the distant Ice Crystal Chi Dragon, battling fiercely with Hong Xiang and the Moon Demon Body.

For the Ice Crystal Chi Dragon’s surface was showing numerous cracks in the ice which were hardly healing, indicating that the remnants of the Divine Seed’s previous master’s power and will were almost depleted. It wouldn’t take long before they could break through the Ice Crystal Chi Dragon and retrieve the Divine Seed inside!

As the Deputy Sect Master of East Cloud Sect, Bai Yunhe wasn’t just remarkably talented, he also longed immensely for the Divine Seed, hoping for the chance to use it to step into the realm of a Martial Saint in the future.

Regardless of the cost, he must seize the Divine Seed; this might be his only chance in a lifetime!

The Moon Demon Body, Hong Xiang, and four innate martial artists from East Cloud Sect all joined the fray, besieging the Ice Crystal Chi Dragon. They caused the hundred-meter Ice Crystal Chi Dragon to roll about and roar, smashing all the grand and exquisite buildings to pieces, though clearly, it was nearing the end of its strength.

“Trash! How much longer are you going to lie there? You can’t even handle a Qi-Blood Realm martial artist!”

With eyebrows ablaze, the Sun Demon Body rebuked sharply.

Not far away, Zhong Yue, hefty as a mountain of flesh, climbed up from the ground. With the Sun Demon Body’s interference, Zhong Yue finally had time to let his demon body recover and rise from the ground.

Facing the scolding from the Sun Demon Body, Zhong Yue’s tense face flushed with a touch of embarrassment and shame. He stammered, “Just now… I was injured by the power of the Divine Seed. It affected me… that’s why he gained the upper hand.”

Zhong Yue forced himself to justify his defeat but understood that he truly lost. If not for the Sun Demon Body’s intervention, he would have likely been doomed – perishing at the hands of this human youngster!

“Enough, there’s no need for you to act! Just watch from the side and prevent him from escaping. This human warrior deserves to die at my hands!”

The Sun Demon Body declared impatiently, instructing Zhong Yue to stay at the sidelines to prevent Su Changkong from escaping. If Su Changkong were to flee, his two demon bodies would be unable to separate too far from each other. However, with his capabilities, Su Changkong wouldn’t be able to escape!

“Yes.” Zhong Yue complied with a growl, eying Su Changkong with predatory intensity. He sneered inwardly; this human lad was indeed much stronger than he expected, but it was useless, as the outcome would be the same—a dead end!

“I had to go all out just for one Zhong Yue… and now there’s an even more terrifying Monster Man?”

A heavy sense of dread rose uncontrollably in Su Changkong’s heart. He had already exhausted all his methods just to defeat Zhong Yue.

And this Wind Sun Moon was clearly a notch stronger than Zhong Yue.

“I have no choice but… to fight with all I’ve got!” A determined glint appeared deep within Su Changkong’s eyes. He still had a trump card: drawing nature’s spiritual energy into his body to temporarily step into the ‘Pseudo Innate’ realm, thereby significantly boosting his fighting prowess.

Yet even with this move, there was no guarantee he could triumph over the terrifying Wind Sun Moon, a fearsome monster beyond his current capacity to handle!

Su Changkong faced a true plight, with Zhong Yue behind him and the even more terrifying Wind Sun Moon before him!

But suddenly, Zhong Yue looked up in shock toward something behind the Sun Demon Body. Behind the Sun Demon Body, a towering figure appeared, standing over two meters tall. Ignoring the flames on the Sun Demon Body, a large hand grabbed the back of the Sun Demon Body’s head, while the other gripped the left shoulder. The arms exerted force, pressing the Sun Demon Body down toward the ground!

“Boom!”

The Sun Demon Body was slammed into the ground by a tremendous force, causing the ground to cave in and crack beneath the impact.

Pressed flat against the ground, the Sun Demon Body’s flaming eyes flashed with blood-red fury as a roar of disbelief and rage burst from his throat: “Hong Xiang! Have you lost your mind?”

The one who had suddenly appeared behind the Sun Demon Body and pushed him to the ground was none other than ‘Hong Xiang’!

“Run now!”

Holding the Sun Demon Body down with both hands, Hong Xiang looked up at Su Changkong and roared!
