Free Web NovelChapter 1547: Chapter 1547: Breaking Through the Suppression
"Hou Tianlie, stop struggling. Within this Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, there’s no way for you to survive!"
At the headquarters of Spirit Fighting Commerce, watching the left-and-right charging Hou Tianlie, whose wounds were increasing by the minute, Wei Duzheng couldn’t help but feel quite pleased with himself. He knew his turning point had finally arrived due to the other’s carelessness.
The truth is, the scope of this Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation is only so large. If Lu Yanji, Hou Tianlie and others had been a bit more cautious and not entered the range of the headquarters of Spirit Fighting Commerce, then at most, Wei Duzheng could only rely on this large array for self-protection.
At that time, Lu Yanji and the others only needed to wait outside. Once the Meridian Demon Blood within the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation was exhausted, under the joint attack of the three powerful cultivators, this President of Spirit Fighting Commerce would undoubtedly be at their mercy.
But anyone in such a favorable position would likely make a decision error. Lu Yanji and the others did consider that Wei Duzheng might have a backup plan; they just didn’t expect it to be this powerful.
Judging by Wei Duzheng’s cultivation alone, it was only at the Peak of the Lingyun Realm. Even one as cautious as Lu Yanji believed that under the alliance of the three powerful cultivators, this guy shouldn’t be able to make too much of a splash.
However, now ensnared within the large array, Lu Yanji and Wu Zhukong, these two cultivators of the Heavenly Realm, could still support themselves for a while, but Hou Tianlie, at the Lingyun Realm Late Stage, was facing peril at every turn, almost unable to protect himself.
Whoosh!
Just after Wei Duzheng’s complacent words fell, a red beam of light suddenly shot out, catching Hou Tianlie defenseless, a splash of blood erupted from his right rib, clearly adding a new injury atop an old one.
As the wounds on his body increased, Hou Tianlie felt the speed at which he lost Blood Energy grew faster and faster. After hurting his right rib again, he suddenly felt that his consciousness seemed a bit fuzzy.
"Not good!"
Sensing the weakness within his body, Hou Tianlie’s pale face couldn’t help but look extremely troubled. Yet Lu Yanji and Wu Zhukong were constantly dodging those red beams of light, so how could they spare any effort to rescue him?
Moreover, even if they managed a temporary rescue, as long as they couldn’t escape from this Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, what awaited the three of them was death from Blood Energy depletion.
Wei Duzheng was exactly counting on this, believing that if he could completely kill these three formidable opponents within the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, relying on himself to deal with Yun Xiao at the Lingyun Realm Late Stage would be more than enough, even possibly turning the tables.
Everything was unfolding in the way Wei Duzheng most hoped for. He believed that as long as he kept a firm grip and didn’t let any of the three escape the large array, the final victory would certainly be his.
"Roar!"
"Chirp!"
Just at this moment, while Wei Duzheng was feeling extremely pleased and Hou Tianlie was worried in despair, two somewhat strange sounds suddenly came from outside the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation.
One seemed to be a dragon’s roar, the other a phoenix’s call, which attracted the attention of the four busy within the formation.
Seeing this, Wei Duzheng couldn’t help but reveal a sneer, as he had already seen it was a golden worm and a peculiar large bird.
With Wei Duzheng’s understanding of this Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, he knew that the large array was least afraid of the Meridian Demon. If a Meridian Demon tried to forcefully break the formation, it might even trap itself within, becoming nourishment for the Blood Energy of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation.
"It seems that the Yun Xiao you value most has also run out of tricks!"
Wei Duzheng turned his head, his hands not stopping, and again uttered a mocking remark, as he had clearly recognized that the golden worm and the fiery red bird belonged to Yun Xiao’s two great demon pets.
Since Yun Xiao rose to fame, his companions beside him, including his Meridian Spirit and demon pets, have become well-known. Besides Chi Yan, Little Five and Red Feather have also appeared more than once in public.
Wei Duzheng was extremely confident in the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, believing that no matter how strong the two demon pets of Yun Xiao were, as long as they hadn’t reached the Holy Grade Sky Demon, they couldn’t affect the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation in the slightest.
In fact, if they were not careful, they might even trap themselves within the large array, as demon pets couldn’t escape the category of Meridian Demons, after all, and the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation targets powerful Meridian Demons.
Boom!
However, just as Wei Duzheng’s heart swelled with pride, an intense energy fluctuation suddenly erupted within the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, causing his expression to change slightly.
Because Wei Duzheng knew clearly in his heart that such a fluctuation wasn’t something he intentionally caused. Since it wasn’t of his doing, how had such a powerful fluctuation come to be?
Since mastering this Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, Wei Duzheng could be considered to have a thorough understanding of this strong large array, but what was happening now was clearly beyond his expectations, as if some unforeseen change had occurred.
"Ga Ga!"
"Roar Roar!"
"Ji Ji!"
"..."
At the same time that Wei Duzheng’s heart felt strange, all around the headquarters of Spirit Fighting Commerce, a series of beast roars and beast cries suddenly resounded, causing his originally slightly changed face to tremble violently.
"Those vein demons, what’s happening to them?"
Wei Duzheng was shocked and confused; logically, vein demons controlled by some method couldn’t possibly make sounds autonomously. However, the current situation was clearly abnormal.
The President of Spirit Fighting Commerce had no idea that owing to the calls of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon and the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix from outside, a special power had emerged from deep within the veins of those vein demons within the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation.
This special power caused these ten thousand vein demons to break free from the Spirit Fighting Commerce’s control, and they were about to break through the suppression of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation.
What would happen next would surely shock Wei Duzheng even more, and he would pay a heavy price for his cruelty and insanity.
Compared to Wei Duzheng, whose expression drastically changed, Lu Yanji and the other two clearly felt the pressure ease because the ten thousand vein demons were about to break free, significantly impacting the blood energy Wei Duzheng could harness.
What they saw and sensed filled Lu Yanji and the others with doubt, and their gaze quickly shifted from Wei Duzheng to the young man in white outside the large array.
"It looks like Yun Xiao saved us again!"
At some point, Hou Tianlie, enduring internal injuries, had finally made his way beside Lu Yanji, hearing his words of appreciation. The stand-in President of Meridian Refining Master also greatly agreed.
"Hmph, I said that a mere Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation couldn’t possibly pose a challenge to the master,"
Wu Zhukong, who also arrived here, gasped for air; even though he had been miserably chased by the beams of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, he never lost faith in Yun Xiao.
"Roar!"
As the three sighed in relief, a violent demonic roar suddenly echoed from somewhere. Wei Duzheng’s expression changed again, as he saw a colossal being charging out from that location.
Bam!
A figure was sent flying by the colossal being, appearing to be a cultivator from the Spirit Fighting Commerce. Looking at his broken form, it was clear he wouldn’t survive.
Simultaneously, everyone’s gaze shifted to the colossal being. It turned out to be a massive bull-shaped vein demon, nearly ten feet long, whose enormous physique conveyed a strong sense of power.
"Damn humans, I want you dead!"
It’s worth noting that this bull-shaped vein demon was overflowing with blood energy and audibly spoke, not sparing a glance at the human it had just knocked away, its eyes the size of copper bells had long been fixed on Wei Duzheng, Spirit Fighting Commerce’s president.
It seems this was a powerful vein demon that reached the Heavenly Demon Rank, the first to burst free under the power of Little Five’s bloodline.
Beside each vein demon was a Spirit Fighting Commerce cultivator overseeing them. Once this giant bull vein demon broke free, it instantly gored a Spirit Fighting Commerce cultivator of the Earth Bending Realm.
However, the vein demons’ greatest hatred was undoubtedly for Wei Duzheng, the president of Spirit Fighting Commerce, who almost consumed all their blood energy.
After goring the Spirit Fighting Commerce cultivator, the giant bull vein demon immediately locked its aura onto Wei Duzheng, charging at him with reckless abandon.
"Damn beast!"
At this moment, Wei Duzheng’s face was extremely grim; he knew the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation he controlled had undergone unexpected changes, and this bull-shaped vein demon was just the appetizer.
With his cultivation at the Peak of Lingyun Realm, Wei Duzheng naturally wouldn’t care about a bull-shaped vein demon of Advanced Silver Grade Sky Demon. With a strong palm strike, the bull-shaped vein demon’s brain burst and died.
"Gah gah gah!"
"Wah wah wah!"
"Chirp chirp chirp!"
"..."
The breakthrough of the bull vein demon seemed to spark a chain reaction, as a series of strange sounds echoed, instantly flying bodies everywhere within the Spirit Fighting Commerce.
After the Demons Mountain battle, Spirit Fighting Commerce’s high-ranking members were either dead or wounded, with only Earth Bending Realm members remaining.
Originally, with the suppression and confinement of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation, even if the Spirit Fighting Commerce human cultivators were weak, they could almost control those vein demons from rebelling.
But now, as those vein demons broke through the confines of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Formation due to Little Five and Red Feather’s bloodline aura, the Spirit Fighting Commerce’s cultivators met a tragic end.
Countless human figures were sent flying by raging vein demons, spraying blood everywhere, not a single one alive. Among them were those poisoned by Highly Poisonous Pulse Demons or strangled to death by giant snake vein demons - not in small numbers.
