Surging Power, Western Abyssal Demon Domain
Black light and shadow swept in from the distant horizon, finally appearing not far in front of the Fire Division disciples, carrying a dense aura of slaughter.
With the appearance of these four Demon Corpse, everyone was finally able to see them clearly.
The Demon Corpse's body was extremely dry, as if it contained no moisture at all. Yet, beneath this dryness lay an extremely hard and emaciated appearance. Its black skin, like that of refined iron, faintly shimmered with light.
A terrifying aura of slaughter emanated from the Demon Corpse, and its deep-set crimson eyes held no human emotions.
These ancient powerful beings have been transformed into humanoid Demonic Creature corrupted by demonic energy.
"In that case, Demon Shadow, these four Demon Corpse are yours." Lin Langtian looked at the four Demon Corpse, then looked up at Demon Shadow and said.
"Yes, Master." The Demon Shadow nodded respectfully, then rode the Beast Puppet Sky Desolation Divine Ox, shooting towards the four Demon Corpse like a war chariot or tank.
"Roar!"
Seeing the Demon Shadow riding the Beast Puppet at breakneck speed, the four Demon Corpse let out a low roar, their eyes suddenly turning crimson, and then their figures transformed into a streak of black light as they hurtled towards them.
"Bang!"
The enormous Beast Puppet, controlled by the Demon Shadow, collided heavily with the four Demon Corpse corpses' monstrous claws.
A crisp metallic sound echoed outwards, as if an invisible wave of power had erupted from the point of contact. In the next instant, the earth collapsed, and huge cracks spread out like a spider web.
The surge of power swept outwards, causing the massive body of the Sky Desolation Divine Ox to tremble. It then hastily retreated more than ten steps. At the same time, the four Demon Corpse were also repelled by the immense power of the Beast Puppet, retreating more than ten steps as well.
Swish, swish, swish!
The Sky Desolation Divine Ox was forced back, but the four Demon Corpse gave it no chance to catch its breath. Black light surged, and the sharp energy was like a black light sword, each move aimed directly at the Demon Shadow's vital points.
Bang!
Seeing this, the Demon Shadow leaped up from the Sky Desolation Divine Ox, and then a powerful stream of evil demonic energy roared over and slammed heavily into the Demon Corpse corpse, knocking it back several steps.
As the demonic energy struck, it immediately transformed into countless strands, spreading across the Demon Corpse's body and ultimately frantically eroding it.
As the demonic energy eroded the Demon Corpse, the killing intent around it weakened significantly, and its attacks became less fierce and ferocious than before.
While the Demon Corpse were being held back by the Demon Shadow shadow, the Sky Desolation Divine Ox charged again. With a roar, it took a step forward, and its massive leg, like a pillar supporting the sky, transformed into a black shadow, containing terrifying power, which poured down on the bodies of the four Demon Corpse.
Bang!
The fierce blow sent the Demon Corpse flying dozens of meters, leaving a deep gash on the ground.
However, after suffering such a heavy blow, the four Demon Corpse stood up shakily again in the next moment.
"Such a tough body."
Seeing this, Song Yun and the others not far away had solemn expressions. The heavy blow from the Beast Puppet earlier would probably be unbearable even for a Nine Yuan Nirvana Stage expert, but these four Demon Corpse seemed to be unaffected.
The physical strength of this Demon Corpse is unmatched even by experts at the Nine Yuan Nirvana Stage.
Whoosh!
At this moment, the Demon Shadow looked at the Demon Corpse that had risen from the ground again, its breath not even excessively weak, a hint of indifference flashing in its scarlet eyes, before it once again leaped onto the Beast Puppet's back.
Under the control of the Demon Shadow, the Sky Desolation Divine Ox unleashed a powerful sweeping attack that struck the four Demon Corpse once again.
Bang!
The Demon Corpse's body flew backward again, and before it could even get up, a huge hoof, carrying an even more astonishing force, slammed down.
"Wild Beast Stomp!"
The indifferent voice of the Demon Shadow rang out, and the earth cracked open, revealing a deep, enormous crater.
The four Demon Corpse were directly slammed into the ground, but Lin Langtian, who was not far away, did not relax as he watched the scene.
Because he could sense that even under such a fierce attack from the Demon Shadow and Beast Puppet, the Demon Corpse did not seem to have suffered much damage.
This thing is like an unkillable monster.
Sure enough, the ground cracked open the next moment, and four dark figures crawled out from underground. Their deep-set, scarlet eyes sent chills down one's spine.
"Senior Brother, these guys seem indestructible. Will Demon Shadow be alright?" Mo Tie, who had seen Demon Shadow in the Ancient Battlefield, asked with concern.
Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes and then looked at the Demon Corpse that had crawled out again.
His gaze then shifted slightly to the Dantian, where white light emanated. This must be the Demon Corpse's vital point; however, the strange, withered black skin protected it as if it were impregnable.
"Don't worry, Demon Shadow will be fine."
With the combined strength of the Demon Shadow and the Beast Puppet, dealing with four Demon Corpse comparable to the Half-Step Life Profound Stage would be somewhat difficult. However, Lin Langtian was well aware that the Demon Shadow still carried a Demon Seal card.
Sure enough, just as Lin Langtian was thinking this, the situation on the field changed again.
"Roar!"
With a furious roar from the Demon Shadow, a demonic aura filled with an extremely sinister killing intent spread across the sky. Everyone looked in that direction and then saw the terrifying figure standing on the Beast Puppet — the Demon Shadow!
Lin Langtian's gaze also turned to the Demon Shadow at this moment, and then his gaze lingered on the latter's forehead, where a sinister rune was flashing with a dark light.
"So he really did use the Demon Seal..." Lin Langtian murmured upon seeing this.
At the same time, Demon Shadow's strength also suddenly surged. If he was only at the Half-Step Life Profound Stage before, he is now comparable to a true Life Profound Stage expert!
Roar!
The next moment, the Demon Shadow roared again, its body moved, transforming into black light, and rushed directly towards the four Demon Corpse.
Bang!
As the Demon Shadow threw a punch, the space in front of it distorted.
Centered on the fist, the demonic energy formed a concave arc, and at the very front of that arc, a massive demonic energy compression cannon, several tens of feet long, emerged. Finally, with a loud bang, like a cannonball, accompanied by a piercing shriek and a powerful gust of wind, it shot down toward the four Demon Corpse!
"Boom!"
The demonic energy cannon slammed into the four Demon Corpse, and instantly, a deafening roar echoed for dozens of miles around. The force of the impact even made the Fire Division members, who were not far away, feel a pain.
Faced with such a heavy blow from the Demon Shadow, the four Demon Corpse were once again violently sent flying, but this time, they did not get up immediately.
Clearly, these four Demon Corpse, comparable to those at the Half-Step Life Profound Stage, had encountered a formidable foe when faced with the Demon Shadow in such a state.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Demon Shadow seized the moment, unleashing beams of demonic energy that intertwined with lightning around the Demon Corpse corpse.
The next moment, the Demon Shadow's fingers suddenly froze, and the countless rays of demonic energy seemed to transform into chains, wrapping around the Demon Corpse's body and binding it tightly.
Creak!
However, this restraint was clearly met with resistance from the Demon Corpse. The more they resisted, the more solidified these demonic chains became, rendering them completely immobile.
"Demon Shadow, retrieve the Life Profound Bone Bead!" Lin Langtian shouted as he saw Demon Shadow defeat the four Demon Corpse.
Whoosh!
Upon hearing Lin Langtian's command, the figure of the Demon Shadow shot out at that moment, appearing in front of the four Demon Corpse in a flash. Then, its black arm shot out, easily piercing through the Demon Corpse's abdomen with a single palm strike, before being pulled back in a flash.
After repeating this action three times, four white orbs of light appeared in his palm, with four pills spinning inside them.
Bang!
As the white ball of light left the body, the Demon Corpse, which had been brimming with murderous intent, instantly lost the crimson in its eyes, and then collapsed shakily, its life force extinguished.
At the same time, Lin Langtian also rushed over. Looking at the four pills offered by the Demon Shadow, a smile couldn't help but appear on his lips.
Four Life Profound Bone Bead —that's quite a haul. What's more, besides the Life Profound Bone Bead, the four Demon Corpse are also a considerable spoils of war.
The Demon Shadow seemed to understand Lin Langtian's thoughts. The next moment, the demonic energy in its palm flashed out and then entered the crown of the Demon Corpse.
Sizzle!
As the demonic energy within the Demon Shadow shadow entered the Demon Corpse, the previously still body suddenly underwent a strange change.
Thick streams of black demonic energy erupted from the Demon Corpse, then swept wildly toward its brain, where a ring of black light emanated, acting as a central hub controlling everything.
As the demonic energy receded, the Demon Shadow hand slowly emerged from the Demon Corpse.
"Get up."
At the command of the Demon Shadow shadow, the Demon Corpse lying on the ground suddenly opened its eyes and stood up. Its appearance startled Song Yun and the others who had rushed over. However, after seeing that the Demon Corpse did not attack, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing this, Lin Langtian explained, "Don't worry, these Demon Corpse will become puppets of our Fire Division from now on."
Upon hearing this, Song Yun and the others immediately showed a look of surprise on their faces, staring at the four Demon Corpse in disbelief.
When it comes to puppetry, the strongest force in the Eastern Xuan Region is undoubtedly the Ten Thousand Puppet Gate. However, even they probably don't have the ability to create these Demon Corpse.
After all, this Demon Corpse is no ordinary corpse. It is filled with the demonic energy of this Abyssal Demon Domain. If it is easily refined, once the demonic energy invades the body, one's own mind will be quickly eroded.
Unexpectedly, the Demon Corpse that no one could subdue has now become a henchman of their Fire Division.
Four Demon Corpse comparable to those at the Half-Step Life Profound Stage have brought a leap in the Fire Division's combat power. They are probably even capable of fighting against the Yuan Sect Sect's main force!
"Our Senior Brother is awesome!" Song Yun and the others exclaimed with delight.
Lin Langtian was able to resolve such a dangerous situation and even turn these Demon Corpse into his own. Song Yun and the other disciples of the Fire Division couldn't help but admire Lin Langtian even more.
"Alright, let's pack up and set off again." As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Langtian suddenly remembered something. He then focused his mind and his Mental Power surged out, forming a light image in front of him.
"Ancient Treasure Map?"
Song Yun and the others were stunned for a moment, then their gazes quickly focused on the light image. After a moment, Pang Lie asked in surprise, "Senior Brother, what is this?"
"This is a treasure map of the Abyssal Demon Domain that I obtained by chance. It may contain some secrets, and that is our destination," Lin Langtian said, pointing to the glowing dot on the map.
This was the very treasure he had obtained from the treasure hunt in the Abyssal Demon City. He also possessed the Evil God Demonic Eye, so Lin Langtian naturally wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in understanding, and then Song Yun said, "According to the directions on this map, we should head west next."
However, as far as I know, there's an extremely famous Luo Shen Ancient Treasure to the west, which should attract many people, and there might be some clashes then.
Lin Langtian waved his hand dismissively and said, "Having subdued four Demon Corpse, our Fire Division is now strong and well-equipped. Anyone who dares to provoke our Fire Division can simply be crushed."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Langtian waved his sleeve, and apart from the Demon Shadow, the enormous Beast Puppet and the four Demon Corpse were taken back into the Mirror Inner World.
These are all our trump cards; it's best not to reveal them easily.
"Walk."
Having decided on his destination, Lin Langtian said no more and with a swift movement, he transformed into a streak of light and dashed away.
Behind him, Song Yun, Pang Lie, Mo Tie, and many other disciples of the Fire Division immediately followed, then transformed into a large swath of rainbow light and sped away into the depths of the wasteland.
Lin Langtian's destination was quite a distance from the outer edge of the Abyssal Demon Domain. Even if the Fire Division Clan traveled at full speed, it would still take them nearly ten days.
Fortunately, none of the Demonic Creature they encountered afterward were as difficult to deal with as the Demon Corpse. Otherwise, even if the Demon Shadow shadow were to intervene, ordinary Fire Division disciples would certainly have had a hard time dealing with them.
Moreover, through these repeated journeys and battles with Demonic Creature, the Fire Division disciples' teamwork and coordination have become increasingly seamless. Even the strength of Song Yun and his two companions is rapidly increasing, advancing towards the Nine Yuan Nirvana Stage.
Once the three of them reach the Nine Yuan Nirvana Stage, with the Life Profound Bone Pill and Life-Life Profound Spirit Fruit in Lin Langtian's possession, there is an 80% chance that they will enter the Life Profound Stage.
By then, the faction led by Lin Langtian would have truly grown up within the Yuan Sect.
During their journey, Lin Langtian and his group also encountered disciples from other sects that had considerable reputations in the Eastern Xuan Region.
Although these sects are not as powerful as the Yuan Sect, they can still be considered among the Super Sect.
Therefore, after the encounter, the two sides had some friction due to various reasons, but in the end, no battle broke out. After all, Lin Langtian's name alone was enough to greatly intimidate those monsters and demons.
Ten days passed quickly as they traveled, and after many arduous battles, Fire Division and his companions finally entered the western region of the Abyssal Demon Domain.
