"You're courting death!" Gui Che's face flushed red.
A streak of light shot toward Kuafu's face.
"Bring it on!"
Kuafu's eyes lit up, and instead of retreating, he charged forward.
As Kuafu took a step, his body swelled against the wind, revealing his true form.
By the time he reached Gui Che, he had transformed into a giant more than a dozen zhang tall.
The streak of light struck Kuafu's body, yet did not even manage to spark a single flame.
Kuafu patted his body and said calmly, "Is that all you've got? You couldn't even make me itch."
Seeing the contemptuous smile on Kuafu's face, Gui Che's expression shifted between green and white.
"Roar!"
As the roar faded, Gui Che transformed into a gigantic nine-headed bird.
The nine bird heads opened their mouths wide, and streaks of light even more violent than before shot toward Kuafu once again.
Kuafu laughed heartily and said, "You little mongrel, just watch me pluck you clean!"
With that, Kuafu charged toward Gui Che, baring his teeth and waving his claws.
"How is this possible?!"
After fighting for a while, Gui Che's expression darkened, and his eyes flickered uncertainly.
He had used every trick at his disposal, yet Kuafu still looked full of vigor, without the slightest sign of injury.
By contrast, Gui Che himself had gained several wounds.
As the two fought, the Witch Clan and Demon Race also sounded the horn of battle in full.
"Charge! Kill these Witch Clan bastards! The Primordial World will belong to our Demon Race!"
"Get them! Let these beasts see what we're capable of!"
The two sides merged like waves, and cries of slaughter rang out without end.
A huge rhinoceros charged relentlessly into the depths of the Witch Clan.
"Die! All of you, die!"
The rhinoceros's eyes were bloodshot, and his four hooves kicked up a howling wind.
Whenever he approached the Witch Clan, his giant horn erupted with dazzling light, sending the Witch Clan members before him flying.
Watching the Witch Clan members he struck fly backward one after another, the rhinoceros let out a wild laugh.
He had just broken through to the early Golden Immortal realm, but both his offensive and defensive abilities were among the very best in the Demon Race.
As long as he established great military merit this time, Lord Gui Che would surely grant him a generous reward when they returned.
Then, as long as he devoted himself to cultivation, reaching the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm would be just a matter of time!
Thinking of that formidable strength and his rapidly rising status in the Heavenly Court, the rhinoceros began to feel rather smug.
"Die, all of you! You'll all become withered bones beneath Lord Xuan Si's feet!"
Xuan Si roared as he rampaged through the Witch Clan.
But before long, he sensed that something was wrong.
Why did this Witch Clan member look so familiar? Had he seen him before?
Damn, this one looks familiar too.
The longer it went on, the stronger that strange feeling in Xuan Si's heart became.
Thus, he began to slow the pace of his attacks.
"Boom!"
Seizing an opportunity, Xuan Si charged into another Witch Clan member, sending him flying once more.
This time, Xuan Si kept a closer eye on him, watching that Witch Clan member intently.
Then he saw the Witch Clan member get to his feet as if nothing had happened.
He even patted the dust off his body.
Aside from the pain that had initially appeared on his face, he soon charged toward another member of the Demon Race.
"What's going on?!"
Xuan Si was dumbfounded.
"Something's wrong! How have these Witch Clan members become so strong?"
Aside from Xuan Si, other members of the Demon Race soon noticed the Witch Clan's formidable physical bodies as well.
In midair, Gui Che grew more alarmed the longer he fought.
"When did Kuafu's body become so tough?"
Gui Che was completely on the defensive now.
They were both peak Great Firmament experts, but Kuafu's physical body was absurdly powerful!
Looking at the situation below, Gui Che was even more horrified.
The Demon Race was dwindling rapidly in the battle, while the Witch Clan still looked full of vigor.
Xuan Si, unwilling to believe it, used his giant horn to knock several more Witch Clan members away, but the result remained the same.
The other members of the Demon Race also swung their weapons with all their might, yet they could not even break through the Witch Clan's physical bodies.
"This is bad! The Witch Clan is strange! Retreat, quickly!"
Gui Che's expression changed drastically. He had finally realized the difference between the two sides.
Gui Che's words became the final straw that broke the camel's back. All the members of the Demon Race felt relieved, then fled in panic.
"Haha, you want to leave now? Too late!"
Seeing this, Kuafu became smug. He chased Gui Che until the latter grimaced and screamed repeatedly.
Chapter 19: Di Jun's Fury, the Demon Court Shaken
A defeated army was like a landslide.
The members of the Demon Race all wore despairing expressions. Facing the Witch Clan's pursuit, they could not summon even the slightest thought of resistance.
The worst off was undoubtedly Xuan Si.
At the beginning, Xuan Si had charged straight into the Witch Clan to kill as many enemies as possible.
Now, when Xuan Si looked up, he saw the Witch Clan; when he turned around, he saw the Witch Clan; and when he jumped, the ground beneath him was filled with the Witch Clan's figures...
Those Witch Clan members were like sticky candy that could not be shaken off.
After he knocked them back, even more Witch Clan members surged forward, one wave after another.
"This is shameless!"
Xuan Si was on the verge of tears.
Unfortunately, he was too cumbersome. Before he had run very far, even more Witch Clan members caught up with him from behind.
"Save me!"
Despair filled Xuan Si's eyes as he shouted toward the Demon Race members fleeing in all directions in the distance.
Unfortunately, none of the Demon Race members paid him any attention. Even the one closest to him did not turn his head.
When he sensed the Witch Clan closing in behind him, he only ran faster.
"Kuafu, I admit defeat today! Let me go..."
"Kuafu, spare me..."
"If you keep chasing me, I'll make you wish you were dead the next time we meet..."
"Kuafu, just you wait!"
In midair, Gui Che was chased by Kuafu until his heart pounded with fear, and even his feathers fell all over the place.
After taking another blow from Kuafu, a ruthless look flashed through Gui Che's eyes.
Gui Che left one head behind while transforming himself into a streak of escaping light and flying away.
That head rapidly turned scarlet.
"Boom!"
The next moment, the head exploded violently, and Kuafu's body, which had been about to pursue him, halted.
"Hmph, that nine-headed beast sure ran fast."
Kuafu watched Gui Che's retreating figure, a smug smile spreading across his face.
"Brother Luo's pills really work! Let's see how those beasts can strut around in front of me in the future."
The other members of the Witch Clan also excitedly began discussing the human pills, their words filled with admiration.
As if he had thought of something, Kuafu's face fell.
"No, I have to talk to the Ancestor about switching places with Hou Yi."
Thinking of how many pills Hou Yi had probably eaten on Shouyang Mountain, Kuafu suddenly felt as if he had missed some tremendous opportunity...
"Half of the Heavenly Court's elite forces were all lost there?"
Inside the main hall of the Heavenly Court, Di Jun sat on his throne in an imperial robe.
At this moment, Di Jun's eyes were wide with fury, as if flames were about to spurt from them.
In the center of the hall, Gui Che stood there covered in wounds, his aura feeble.
Sensing Di Jun's rage, Gui Che looked terrified and hurriedly fell to his knees.
"Lord Di Jun, please judge the matter fairly! During the battle, I struck Kuafu more than once, but Kuafu seemed to have a body of vajra."
