The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 719: Chapter 719: Sword Slashing the Demon King

The people are full of doubt and suspicions. This is exactly what the Silver Fox had hoped for, and it’s all part of the beast’s meticulously planned scheme.

To free the monsters in the Hundred Beast Mountain, the Silver Fox started its preparations decades ago, only fully revealing its plans recently.

Taking advantage of the confusion among human warriors, the Silver Fox led the beasts in a fierce assault, with several Demon Kings at the forefront. Their massive bodies were like mountains, scattering human warriors in their wake.

Had it not been for the Beast-killing Guard defending fearlessly, trading lives for lives, the defensive line of human warriors would have collapsed already.

Mighty warriors from all over Xuan Country were locked in battle. They have not turned into monsters, as they haven’t stayed in Demon Suppressing City and just arrived recently. The only ones affected by the Demon Qi were those who had been residing in the city for a long period.

These warriors from various regions played a significant role. Although they were not fond of cooperation and mostly fended for themselves, their individual strength was prodigious. They were all powerful individuals at the Heavenly Origin and Spirit Vein stages, with several reaching the Spirit Bone level.

Thanks to these individuals’ existence and their resistance against the Demon Kings, the defensive line did not completely collapse.

Despite this, the situation rapidly deteriorated. The onslaught of the demon beasts was wave after wave, like the relentless tide, consistently charging from Ferocious Mountain.

The Demon Suppressing King had already pushed deep into the monster horde, battling against five Demon Kings. Relying on his formidable strength and the Demon-slaying Sword, he was able to hold off these five Demon Kings.

Boom, Boom, Boom!!!

Giant flaming rocks were coming out of the Demon Suppressing City, bringing a blazing inferno down on the beast horde. These flaming rocks exploded upon landing, causing heavy casualties among the monster ranks.

Catapult wagons, unique only to the Demon Suppressing City, were spotted on the city walls. They were launching these flaming rocks, causing significant damage.

However, the number of flaming rocks was limited and could only suppress the enemy temporarily. Once all the rocks were used up, these catapult wagons would become useless.

“Why hasn’t any reinforcement arrived?” A warrior roared in fury, only to be torn apart by a demon beast.

Resentment filled their hearts as they fearlessly battled on. Despite watching their comrades fall one by one, there was still no sign of upcoming reinforcements.

Being left with such a feeling was utterly hopeless.

“They will come. They definitely will,” murmured an old man, though even he looked confused. Will they really come?

“We’ve all been deceived! The Demon Suppressing City is doomed! We were abandoned, and any further resistance is futile!” someone shouted in outrage. Immediately, they were executed on the spot by Prince Hai.

“Anyone spreading chaos in our ranks will be shown no mercy!” The murderous Prince Hai, his eyes bloodshot, understood the ambiguous position they were at. They were already losing order, and further language like this could cause an even more significant problem.

“Everyone, stay calm! Chen Yongnian is here!” At that moment, Chen Yongnian, in his gray robe, arrived, bringing with him a group of powerful individuals from Pill Alliance of the Xuan Country.

Chen Yongnian was a strong figure in the Spirit Bone stage, and those he brought from the Pill Alliance were also accomplished warriors. They indeed offered substantial reinforcements.

“Elder Chen has arrived at a great time! We thank Pill Alliance for the assistance!” Prince Hai shouted in joy and relief.

Chen Yongnian nodded in acknowledgment, leading several members of the Pill Alliance into the battlefield. Their presence alleviated the pressure on the human warriors considerably.

The Demon Suppressing King glanced back and saw the arriving reinforcements. His heart eased a bit, and he continued his fierce battle with the five Demon Kings with increased intensity.

“You all shall die!” The Demon Suppressing King suddenly roared. His Spirit Eye opened on his forehead, and an aged silhouette emerged, wielding a sharp sword, and attacked the Black Bear Demon King at the front.

The Black Bear Demon King roared in anger, attempting to strike the old figure with his immense paws.

Squish!

The paws were immediately severed and blood spurted out. From his face to his abdomen, a line of blood marked the Demon King.

The Black Bear Demon King screamed in agony, almost being split in two by the mystical figure’s sword.

The other four Demon Kings were taken aback by the unexpected power displayed by this elderly figure. He almost killed the Black Bear Demon King with a single stroke of his sword.

Looking at the old figure, the Demon Suppressing King’s expression was a mixture of mystery and admiration. This was his ancestor, the first Demon Suppressing King.

The first Demon Suppressing King had integrated part of his remaining spirit into the Spirit Eye of the second Demon Suppressing King before his death. Every subsequent generation did the same.

The current Demon Suppressing King had an immensely powerful force contained within his Spirit Eye. If released in full, it could slay any Demon King.

At this point, the Demon Suppressing King only released a fraction of that power, and it proving its significant might.

“Isn’t the power nurtured enough?” The Demon Suppressing King sighed in his heart. This power he received had been fostered for thousands of years, and although it had become exceptionally powerful during his generation, control over it was gradually being lost.

If it wasn’t due to the lineage of the Demon Suppressing Kings nurturing this power for more than a decade, it might have been impossible to control.

“Regardless, you all will be slain!” The Demon Suppressing King coldly stated, commanding the old figure to attack again.

The Black Bear Demon King was the first one to be hit and hadn’t recovered from the shock. He was immediately split into two.

A Demon King, just like that, was killed.

With the aged figure leading and the Demon Suppressing King following, they managed to inflict heavy injuries on the other four Demon Kings. If these four hadn’t taken precautionary measures and escaped quickly, they might have ended up like the Black Bear Demon King, slain by the elderly figure’s hands.

“Die!!!” The Demon Suppressing King charged towards the Silver Fox, a ruthless killing intent flashing in his eyes as he manipulated the aged figure to kill the Silver Fox.

The Silver Fox looked at the old figure, fear evident in its eyes. It ignored Demon Suppressing King but this elderly figure presented a huge threat.

The Silver Fox shot into the sky, an overwhelming surge of Demon Qi roaring downwards.

The old figure swung his sword, splitting the Demon Qi with it, the sword Qi soaring to slay the Silver Fox.

The Silver Fox did not dare to be careless. Its tail curled and smashed into the sword Qi.

BOOM!!

With a loud bang, the Sword Qi instantly dissipated, but part of the fox’s tail was also chopped off.

The Silver Fox maintained a poker face. Being a fragment itself, it couldn’t feel pain, but the anger in its eyes was tangible.

As one of the supreme entities of the Demon Clan, and just a fragment, there was an unassailable dignity. Now being hurt by a human was a disgrace even though it was just a fragment.

The Silver Fox was infuriated, with silver light swirling in its mouth as a torrent roared out.

The elderly figure moved not an inch, striking with his sword to fend off the blow from the Silver Fox.
