Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 383: Chapter 383 Abyssal Giant Mouth_1

”Stick to the plan!”

Ling Xiao shouted as he confronted Wan Yan Jun and Chen Zui head-on, while also keeping a close eye on the movements of the Plague Demon King.

As for Shang Guan Lei, he attacked the Demon General. Although his strength was not on par with that of the Demon General, the Ice Soul Silver Needles he carried could be used again, which made the Demon General somewhat wary of him, so temporarily he was still able to buy some time.

”Gold Brick!”

During his dive toward Ling Xiao, Wan Yan Jun attempted to bring out his hidden weapon, the Gold Brick, but ended up grasping at air.

”Are you looking for this?”

Ling Xiao said with a smile, producing the Gold Brick from the Mountain and River World.

In fact, Ling Xiao had long suspected Wan Yan Jun’s reliability, so when Wan Yan Jun previously used the Gold Brick to fend off the Plague Beast, Ling Xiao had already drawn the Gold Brick into his own Mountain and River World.

The one Wan Yan Jun had retrieved was merely a fake Gold Brick temporarily crafted from gold.

This sleight of hand technique had completely escaped Wan Yan Jun’s detection.

”You! How do you have my Gold Brick secret weapon!”

Wan Yan Jun was suddenly thrown into a panic.

Although his cultivation was not insignificant, being at the pinnacle of the Transcendent Realm Third Layer, if he truly put forth effort against Ling Xiao, it would be very difficult for Ling Xiao to win without transforming into his Human-Dragon Form.

Unfortunately, at that moment, he completely lost his composure.

”Now!”

While his mind was in turmoil, Ling Xiao directly threw the Gold Brick.

Transforming into a streak of golden light, like a bolt of lightning, it smashed onto Wan Yan Jun’s head.

Man, that was some powerful force.

Wan Yan Jun was struck so hard that he collapsed to the ground, not dead, but so thoroughly incapacitated that he had lost all combat ability.

”Waste!”

The Plague Demon King cursed, then with a single inhale, he swallowed the not yet fully deceased Wan Yan Jun, instantly converting him into nourishment for himself.

The green glow on his body visibly brightened a great deal.

”Gaga, very good, very good. The body of an Inner Sect Disciple from Moon Hua Sect really is a great supplement! I just hope the Great Emperor doesn’t blame me.”

Muttering under his breath, the Plague Demon King’s body began to change, gradually taking on the appearance of Wan Yan Jun.

”This shell is still too inferior, but it’s not bad for temporary combat.”

After mumbling to himself, his green-colored eyes once again fixed on Ling Xiao.

He had realized by now that Ling Xiao was the biggest troublemaker on the entire battlefield. As long as Ling Xiao was killed, Shang Guan Lei wouldn’t be worth mentioning.

Chen Zui was completely dumbfounded at this point.

Wan Yan Jun had just died in front of him, and to make matters worse, he was directly devoured by the Plague Demon King, which made him feel even more afraid.

It was only now that he truly understood the records about the cruelty of the creatures from the True Demon Empire; even his sincere defection to the Plague Demon King was in vain.

In the end, wouldn’t he just become a delightful meal in the belly of the Plague Demon King?

”Why aren’t you taking action?”

The Plague Demon King asked coldly, glancing at Chen Zui.

”I... I... Ling Xiao, save me!”

At that moment, Chen Zui suddenly realized how foolish he had been.

Dealing with a Demon Lord was more terrifying than making a pact with a tiger.

He ran panickedly towards Ling Xiao, seeing him as his only savior now.

”Seeking death!”

The Plague Demon King let out a cold laugh and suddenly launched an attack so swift that Chen Zui couldn’t defend himself in time.

Puchi!

Chen Zui felt something puncture a hole through his body, and a cold, evil presence swiftly invaded his meridians and blood.

”No—I don’t want to die. I’m not ready to die, Ling Xiao! If you save me, I won’t reveal that you wounded Wan Yan Jun!”

Even at this point, he was still threatening Ling Xiao.

This guy was truly beyond help.

”Idiot!”

Ling Xiao had no intention of lifting a finger to save Chen Zui, ”If you die, you won’t be able to speak either, will you?”

”You! You can’t just stand by and watch me die! You can’t!”

Despair engulfed Chen Zui.

He never imagined that this would be his end.

He was going to die in an unknown Demon Cave—perhaps becoming a meal in the belly of the Plague Demon King or a sacrifice for the resurrection of the True Demon Emperor.

No matter what, his death was too tragic.

Crack!

Chen Zui felt as if something had crushed his heart. His life force was draining away rapidly, and the last thing he saw before he died was a gaping maw dripping with thick green liquid.

Witnessing this, Shangguan Lei couldn’t help but gasp at the ferocity of the Plague Demon King—the historical records were all true.

”Elder Brother Shangguan, focus on fighting the Demon General. I will make sure you come out of here alive. You’re not like those two useless ones; at the very least, you know what a bottom line is,” said Ling Xiao, naturally providing Shangguan Lei a reassurance.

He wanted to prevent Shangguan Lei from getting paranoid and worrying about being silenced.

At least for now, Ling Xiao truly relied on Shangguan Lei to restrain the Demon General; relying solely on his Martial Soul Avatar, he was definitely no match for the Demon General.

And his true body still had to contend with the Plague Demon King.

The key to today’s battle would still be the Plague Demon King.

A warrior at the early phase of the Transcendent Realm Fourth Layer was the strongest enemy Ling Xiao had encountered thus far. Whether he could defeat him was crucial to whether he and Shangguan Lei could survive and return.

...

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~

Thirty-six Sky Gang Flying Swords burst through the air, dragging behind them streaks of white Golden Lotus True Essence, targeting the Plague Demon King and shooting toward him.

At this moment, Ling Xiao’s true body had emerged from his Mountain and River Martial Soul and was facing the Plague Demon King head-on.

Meanwhile, his Martial Soul Avatar cooperated with Shangguan Lei to deal with the Demon General.

This way, at least there was a chance of suppressing the enemy on that front, preventing Shangguan Lei from ending up in a checkmate.

If Shangguan Lei died, and the Demon General joined forces with the Plague Demon King, that would spell disaster for Ling Xiao.

Pupu pupu pupu...

The thirty-six Sky Gang Flying Swords were all blocked by a ball of green liquid that had formed in front of the Plague Demon King.

Although this green liquid wasn’t particularly hard, it was extremely resilient—the thirty-six Sky Gang Flying Swords couldn’t pierce through it.

This Plague Demon King was indeed not to be underestimated.

”Gagagaga, boy, you indeed have many tricks up your sleeve, but you stand no chance against me,” the Plague Demon King sneered coldly. Instead of pursuing Ling Xiao, he stood there with a bizarre large mouth appearing behind him.

It was like an endless abyss, its depths completely unfathomable.

Ling Xiao had never seen nor heard of such a Martial Soul.

It seemed the Mysterious World was truly vast and filled with wonders.

He had once seen Li Anle’s Martial Soul as a fist in the Moon Hua Sect. Now, he faced a Martial Soul in the form of an Abyssal Giant Mouth.

The giant mouth opened, but it didn’t attack; instead, it seemed to be chewing.

At the same time, Ling Xiao noticed that the green glow on the Plague Demon King was becoming clearer.

He frowned.

This guy, he had to be taken down immediately, or the consequences would be unimaginable!
