Chapter 1487: Chapter 662: Separation (3)

However, Monk Quan Heng did not realize that this Great Demon had already regained its own consciousness.

Previously, it was as if bewitched by something, covered by an invisible will, relentlessly pursuing some existence, trying to devour that presence.

But after a certain point, it suddenly became clear-headed.

The memories of what it experienced while bewitched remained, it feared that crimson glow, feared the white-clothed humans who affected its consciousness, and feared even more the pillar of light piercing the sky!

So, it fled.

Unexpectedly, the Thunder Pillar disappeared, the feeling of panic gradually subsided, and greed welled in its heart, so it returned.

Chewing humans with its large mouth brought an unusual sense of satisfaction.

Yet the human blocking its path was strong, creating a sense of pressure and fear.

Yes, fear!

That was...

The power of the Spirit!

After a brief assessment, the Great Demon turned around and fled!

The memories of fighting side by side with the Buddha Body Demon still influenced it, the fear deep in its heart made it dare not face any powerful adversary.

Run, run, run!

With this escape, it fled toward the city, leaving Monk Quan Heng, who was preparing to fight to the death, stunned on the spot.

What... is going on?

Monk Quan Heng was somewhat bewildered, until the sounds of cheers and clamor, like a tidal wave, rang out below, bringing him back to his senses.

Guiding the people to orderly escape outside the city, Monk Quan Heng could no longer see Ding Hui and the others.

But he knew, following the official road, he would surely catch up with them.

Only...

Monk Quan Heng turned back, looking towards the city, that was... in the direction of An Mansion.

"Still... alive?"

Having the refugees spontaneously flee along the official road.

Taking a deep breath, Monk Quan Heng dashed into the blazing, tremulous Thunder City, charging towards... An Mansion!!

...

An Mansion.

"Hahaha! Look, isn’t this another problem solved! The Soothing Spirit Pillar, is mine!!"

The Patriarch of Bo Family exclaimed with excitement.

Beside him were several other Family Heads.

Unlike the other heads, the Bo Family Patriarch, at this moment, had become the embodiment of the Mourning Pillar, fused as one with the pillar.

Although power continued to leak out, steadily diminishing in strength.

But compared to those Family Heads who couldn’t leave the range of the pillars, he had far more advantages.

Previously on his own territory, although he couldn’t beat the Wu Family Demon Pillar, he could run away.

With this escape, he didn’t take long to flee to the territory of other Family Heads.

The Family Heads combined the power of the pillars, plus his own Mourning Pillar, the double pillars exerted force together, turning to suppress the Wu Family Demon Pillar which was pursuing them.

Instantly refined, absorbed, the Mourning Pillar gained a tremendous boost.

Although its power continued to diminish like a leaking balloon, it now possessed the strength to defeat other pillar demons.

Combining with the other Family Heads again, the Patriarch of Bo Family began to maneuver around, reaching the territory of other Family Heads to assist.

The situation gradually improved, when dealing with the mighty Soothing Spirit Pillar, he even managed to call for the help of three Family Heads together.

Although the distance was a bit far, these Family Heads at this location could still gain a certain boost from their own Sky-reaching Pillars, so the battle was fairly matched.

Amid the chaos, there seemed to be some commotion at the city gate, a pillar of light descended, but they had no time to worry about the battle over there.

After a fierce struggle, they finally managed to capture the most formidable Soothing Spirit Pillar.

The Bo Family Patriarch wanted to absorb it once more, but the surrounding Family Heads were unhappy.

"Old Bo, that’s not fair, this isn’t what was agreed, according to the deal, this Soothing Spirit Pillar, belongs to the three of us. The next demon pillar, is yours."

"That’s right, Old Bo, even though you’re very powerful now, you know your current situation clearly. A Sky-reaching Pillar might alleviate your pressure, but can it solve the problem? With our help, the great families exchanging resources, there is a way to help you solve the problem of leaking power from the root, don’t you think?"

The movements of the Patriarch of Bo Family stopped.

The three old entities still at the edge of the Sky-reaching Pillar’s influence, gaining its strength, he could fight them desperately, but at most, he could exchange blows with one, and he himself would have to flee heavily injured.

Given the current situation where power keeps leaking, fleeing heavily injured would basically mean no chance for recovery.

"..."

After a brief silence, the four reached an agreement, the Soothing Spirit Pillar belonged to the three, and the next demon pillar they hunted would belong to the Patriarch of Bo Family.

The four mobilized, one chose to withdraw, because the next demon pillar ranged beyond his family’s Sky-reaching Pillar’s area of influence.

Without the Sky-reaching Pillar’s amplification, even a Family Head was absolutely no match for the demon pillar.

They had nurtured demons for too long, causing the Sky-reaching Pillar to receive too much amplification, gradually slipping out of control.

"We’ll find a way to drive that demon pillar towards your side, you just be ready to support."

After discussing their strategy, they began to act.

Currently in Thunder City, they are Thunder City’s last hope.

If they win, Thunder City wins. If they lose, humanity loses, Thunder City completely becomes a place for demons.

That’s how they saw it, and under such thoughts, there were all kinds of mutual caution and numerous scheming.

Yet even so, the plan to hunt demon pillars continues to move forward, Thunder City is gradually being reclaimed...

Not long after these old entities left An Mansion, a figure rushed into An Mansion’s courtyard.

Monk Quan Heng kept searching, kept looking, and then, he saw it, a corpse.
