Chapter 306: Chapter 306: Killed with a Single Strike, Energy at Full Level
“Grandfather, danger!”
Ding Qing finally arrived, shouting in a panic. He turned his head to the side, “Sect Master Ye, please… wait, where is Sect Master Ye?”
The spot where Ye Feng had been sitting in meditation was now empty.
“Poison Scorpion King, you will not kill me!”
In the sky above, Ding Cheng waved his hand, summoning a tortoiseshell-shaped shield in mid-air, its surface erupting with golden Bagua runes, blocking the front.
Crack!
But after the Poison Scorpion King’s sacrifice of his teammates, his mana became boundless. With a forceful strike of his giant pincers, he shattered the tortoiseshell shield, and the shockwave hurled Ding Cheng away, crashing heavily atop a tall tower.
Spurt!
Ding Cheng spat out a mouthful of blood, already powerless to continue the fight.
“City Lord!”
At this moment, all living beings in the city were astounded.
The one hailed as Beiliang City’s Guardian God, Ding Cheng, was actually defeated by the Poison Scorpion King!
“We’re doomed!”
“That mysterious Fox Immortal isn’t here, and City Lord Ding has suffered heavy injuries. Our Beiliang City is finished!”
“Heaven wants to destroy us!”
Many cultivators were unwilling to accept this, shouting out in place.
“Hee hee hee, die, all of you die!”
The Poison Scorpion King, brandishing his gigantic pincers, prepared to first crush the severely injured Ding Cheng then devour him.
But just as everyone was in the depths of despair, a streak of silver light streaked across the firmament, and two figures appeared silently in the sky.
Ye Feng held a Demon Core the size of a water jar, its surface carved with a serpent’s head totem, ferocious-looking as if it wished to devour the entire world.
By his side stood the pleased-looking Hu Feifei.
“It’s you!”
The Poison Scorpion King stared at Hu Feifei and then at the serpent-headed Demon Core held by Ye Feng, his pupils suddenly contracting.
This Demon Core’s aura was very familiar!
“The Mad Python King has fallen?”
The Poison Scorpion King stared at the Demon Core, his face showing shock, and immediately turned his head to look into the distance.
A hundred miles away, a giant python roughly a thousand meters long lay in a pool of blood, its head blown open, with several layers of shed skin trailing behind it.
“I have to admit, the Mad Python King was very difficult to kill. He used ‘Golden Cicada’s Shedding’ five times in a row, but alas, faced with our ability to teleport, his attempts to escape were futile.”
Ye Feng, holding the Demon Core, had the corners of his mouth slightly turned up.
Hu Feifei couldn’t catch up with the Mad Python King at full speed.
However, Ye Feng took action.
He continuously expended several Middle Grade Spirit Stones, carrying Hu Feifei through several Instantaneous Movements. Each time, they managed to catch up to the Mad Python King and burst him.
Although the Mad Python King was able to constantly shed his skin to dodge fatal blows, he eventually showed signs of fatigue due to overuse of his Talent, allowing Hu Feifei to catch him off-guard and smash his Primordial Spirit with a blow from her staff, causing him to fall a hundred miles from Beiliang City.
“You… you actually killed the Mad Python King!”
The Poison Scorpion King felt fear arise in his heart, instinctively retreating a few steps back.
Among the five Great Demon Kings of the Barren Desert, the Desert King was undoubtedly the strongest, with all abilities being outstanding.
But when it came to the ability to flee for one’s life, the Mad Python King was the one to watch.
Yet, the Mad Python King had still fallen!
“That giant python was somewhat difficult, but it couldn’t stop my stick.” Hu Feifei swung her white staff, staring intently at the Poison Scorpion King, licking her lips.
“Princess, go,” Ye Feng commanded.
“Alrighty!” Hu Feifei had already been eager to make a move.
Once the Poison Scorpion King was burst, she could absorb his Demon Core.
“You dare to strike at me, you’re seeking death!” The Poison Scorpion King, watching Hu Feifei charge at him at high speed, concentrated all his power at the tips of his pincers and lunged forward.
Clang!
Hu Feifei instantly produced 720 staff shadows, intersecting into a white light array with complex Array Patterns swirling within, invoking the Power of Heaven and Earth.
Roar!
The sound of a dragon’s chant arose.
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound, only to see a white dragon burst forth from the white light array, ramming into the Poison Scorpion King’s large pincers, shattering them completely. It continued to plow forward, piercing through his entire body.
On the ground, there appeared a crater ten meters in diameter and a kilometer deep.
“Ah… this is impossible!”
The Poison Scorpion King lowered his head, looking at the wound that pierced through him, wanting to swing his gigantic pincer, only to find that Princess Hu Feifei had already arrived in front of him.
Bang, bang, bang!
With several hundred strikes in succession, the soul of the Poison Scorpion King was shattered, and a black Demon Core as big as a round table slipped out, caught in the hand of Princess Hu Feifei.
Boom…
It was only at this moment that the massive body of the Poison Scorpion King crashed to the ground, causing the earth to tremble and dense dust to sweep through the air.
Everyone who saw this scene was astounded.
The Poison Scorpion King had actually fallen?!
“Run!”
The remaining giant pythons and the rear ranks of the scorpion army turned to the front, retreating in a dark mass toward the Barren Desert to the north.
Ye Feng and Princess Hu Feifei couldn’t be bothered to pursue them.
Without the Mad Python King and the Poison Scorpion King, the scorpion army and the python army were just a disorganized mob, not even a High-Rank Demon General in sight.
At most, there were a few dozen Middle and Lower Rank Demon Generals.
Ding Qing arrived on the Spirit Boat, knelt down with gratitude streaming from his eyes, and said, “Many thanks to Sect Master Ye and Princess Hu Feifei for lending a hand, this junior is endlessly grateful.”
“It was a mere trifle,” Ye Feng glanced at the corpse of the Poison Scorpion King lying on the ground, “I’ll go down and see if he’s dead.”
With that said, he and Princess Hu Feifei dived into the body of the Poison Scorpion King.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Feng decisively used the fourth function of the Spirit Beast Pavilion, with a great deal of pale green light emerging from all directions of the Poison Scorpion King’s body, gradually condensing into a Spirit Blood Cluster with a diameter of two meters in front of him.
Thump, thump.
Ye Feng could feel the vigorous life force within the Spirit Blood Cluster, like a heart powerfully beating.
“Finally, the Spirit Blood Transference is complete.”
Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
He had already transferred the Spirit Blood when he killed the Mad Python King, and now he had harvested the Spirit Blood of the Poison Scorpion King, which laid an extremely solid foundation for the Spiritual Beasts of the Misty Sect.
“Sect Leader, I want to eat!”
Princess Hu Feifei gazed at the two huge Demon Cores floating beside her.
“Be quick about it,” Ye Feng urged.
Currently, Princess Hu Feifei’s Upgrade Energy was close to eighty percent. Absorbing these two Demon Cores from Lower Rank Demon Kings at their peak could very well fill up her energy and commence the upgrade.
Ye Feng was very much looking forward to it.
“Okay then.” Upon hearing she could absorb, Princess Hu Feifei tossed away her white short staff, which automatically stored itself in her fluffy tail.
She then stretched out her hands and pressed them against the Demon Core of the Mad Python King.
Sss, sss!
The Demon Core began to disintegrate, a surge of pure special energy violently flooding out, all of it pouring into Princess Hu Feifei’s body.
[Princess Hu Feifei’s Upgrade Energy: 87%]
The progress was swift, with more than ten percent added in one go.
“Ah, that feels good!”
Princess Hu Feifei took a deep breath and placed her hands on the even larger black Demon Core, absorbing the power within.
“Ding, Hu Feifei’s energy level has reached one hundred percent. She cannot continue to absorb energy before the upgrade.”
The system suddenly issued a notification.
“Eh, I’m feeling so sleepy!” Princess Hu Feifei yawned, her body went limp, and she fell onto Ye Feng.
The Poison Scorpion King’s Demon Core was only partially absorbed, its surface showing some cracks, and could be kept for later use.
“System, what’s going on?”
Ye Feng supported Princess Hu Feifei and asked the system.
Even as a humanoid Spiritual Artifact, Princess Hu Feifei shouldn’t be sleepy after absorbing enough Upgrade Energy.
“Princess Hu Feifei’s Primordial Spirit is absorbing the Upgrade Energy, hence she has entered a slumber. It is estimated she will awaken within three days,” the system provided its analysis.
“So that’s how it is!”
Ye Feng nodded.
It seemed that Princess Hu Feifei had already started the upgrade.
He picked up the Poison Scorpion King’s black Demon Core, and with Princess Hu Feifei in tow, reappeared in the sight of the millions in Beiliang City.
