A Great Demon Emerges!

Night in Yang City.

A clap of thunder resounded, and instantly dark clouds covered the sky, black rain swept in, and the air became spicy and bitter.

A man in white was walking down the street when he suddenly frowned. He raised his hand to catch a drop of black rain, but unexpectedly, a wisp of black smoke rose from his fingertips.

"This is?"

A woman approached the man and said, "Senior Brother Shen, this rain is strange. I sense an ominous aura."

The man looked up at the distant sky. "The stars are dim, the auspicious star is hidden. Is a powerful demon at the Core Formation Stage about to be born?"

The man's name was Shen Xiuyai. He was a disciple of an elder of the Jinghong Sword Sect of White Rainbow Mountain and had the cultivation level of the early stage of Core Formation.

The woman was her junior sister.

"A Core Formation Demon King?"

"In Yang City?"

"How is that possible? This isn't the Great Northern Wilderness. If it had cultivated on its own, there would have been a lot of noise."

Shen Xiuyai frowned. "Junior sister, do you remember... many years ago, an immortal descended to the mortal realm and personally conveyed the sage's decree?"

Many years ago, an immortal descended to the mortal realm to deliver a message to the sage, saying that the sage's time was coming to an end and he was about to Godfall. Therefore, he ordered the Nine Heavens to widely recruit disciples, and those who were destined could inherit the mantle of the Great Dao.

As the sage is about to fall, many Outer Realm Sky Demons are beginning to stir and may take the opportunity to invade the immortal realm.

"Senior brother, are you saying that this suddenly appearing Core Formation demon might be related to the Outer Realm Sky Demons that the immortals spoke of?"

Shen Xiuyai nodded, "I also hope that I am overthinking it, but since Ancestor Yunhai opened up Mountain Sea Pass, no Core Formation Demon has been born in the Human Domain realm."

Upon hearing this, the woman asked, "Should we report this to our master?"

Before Shen Xiuyai could speak, Yang City suddenly trembled, and a huge figure suddenly appeared in their field of vision!

Nine enormous human faces, each with a different expression: some are laughing, some are crying, some are sullen, and some are furious.

At the same time, nine ear-piercing roars resounded!

"Quick, cover your ears!"

As Shen Xiuyai spoke, he quickly covered his ears, and at the same time, his pupils began to tremble. What kind of monster was this?!

They had never seen such a monster before, a mixture of human and demonic features, unimaginably huge, as if looking at it for even a moment would drive them mad.

In particular, those nine faces created an uncanny valley effect in Shen Xiuyai's mind.

"It hurts... it hurts so much..."

"My head! Give me back my head!!!"

"What did I do wrong? Waaah, what did I do wrong? Why are you killing me? Why are you killing me?"

"Hehehe, I'll kill you all, I'll kill you all!"

"I can't escape, and neither can you!!"

Boom!!!

With a deafening roar, the enormous monster smashed through Yang City's city walls, its massive body writhing and tumbling as it entered!

The soldiers defending the city all looked desperate, crying out for help frantically!

They were grabbed by the monster's hands and tentacles and then stuffed into its enormous mouth!

Pfft!

The Nine-headed Monster's human face grabbed a man with its two thin little hands and shoved him upside down into its mouth as if he were a toy!

Puff!

"Mmm... delicious, so tasty..."

When the monster entered the city, the people inside fled in panic before they even had time to pack their belongings!

Seeing this, Shen Xiuyai gritted his teeth, drew his sword, and was about to rush forward, but the woman beside him grabbed his hand.

"Senior brother!"

Shen Xiuyai angrily rebuked, "When a great demon wreaks havoc on the human world, how can we cultivators stand idly by!"

The woman said urgently, "That's a powerful demon at the Core Formation Stage, Senior Brother!"

Shen Xiuyai flung the woman's hand away, then flew into the sky on his sword, shouting, "So what if I've reached the Core Formation stage? I'm a Core Formation stage cultivator too!"

Watching Shen Xiuyai rush out, the woman looked on in despair. They were both at the Core Formation stage, but the demon beasts were just stronger than the human cultivators!

Moreover, this monster has never appeared in history before; it is unprecedented. It is not recorded in the Records of Demons and Gods, so it has no weakness that can be exploited!

But she also knew what kind of temper her senior brother had.

"Fine, at worst..."

The woman was about to draw her sword when a scene that filled her with despair unfolded.

Her senior brother, Shen Xiuyai, had just rushed forward when the monster spat out a mouthful of black water, which directly blinded Shen Xiuya and caused his face to rot away!

The next second, Shen Xiuyai was cut in half at the waist!

Upon witnessing this scene, the woman lost all courage, a sense of despair welled up within her, and fear overwhelmed all her emotions.

My senior brother is dead?

Even the senior brother, who was known as having Innate Dao Body, was defeated so easily?

The woman turned and ran without hesitation!

"Senior brother, don't blame me, I can't beat that guy... I don't want to die, I... I will ask Master to avenge you!"

The woman fled at great speed on her sword, but as she ran, she saw the people below their bones and flesh dissolving in the black rain, and one person's legs disappeared as he ran!

That black rain can corrode human flesh!

Upon seeing the woman riding a sword, the mortals on the ground all knelt down and pleaded, "Immortal?"

"Please, immortals, save us!!"

"An immortal!"

The woman immediately closed her eyes and shut down her hearing, then gritted her teeth and flew out of Yang City as fast as she could.

Seeing the immortal run away without looking back, the people's hearts sank.

"Why have the immortals abandoned us?!"

"Wasn't it supposed to be about slaying demons and eliminating evil?!"

"We give you so much money every year, but when the monsters come, the immortals abandon us!"

"Heavens above..."

The next morning.

Yang City vanished overnight, leaving behind only an endless swamp. No one left Yang City alive last night.

And that enormous nine-headed monster vanished into thin air.

In a small village more than 30 miles Yang City, Chen Mo sat on a recliner, holding a straw fan.

Beside him was a group of pale-faced people, all of whom were local villagers.

Just last night, they witnessed Chen Mo turn a man and an immortal into monsters, and they also witnessed Chen Mo killing people!

They thought they were doomed, but surprisingly, Chen Mo didn't kill them.

Chen Mo simply took out golden pills and handed them to these people, instructing them to take them one by one.

Previously, someone resisted taking the golden pill and tore it open, revealing a strange, live, wriggling insect egg inside.

That person's fate was also extremely tragic; he was directly captured by Chen Mo and refined into Human Pill.

Others, in order to survive, ate the eggs despite knowing they were insect eggs.

Fortunately, Chen Mo did not continue to make things difficult for them after that.

But in the middle of the night, the Nine-headed Monster named Xiangliu returned, bringing with him the remains of an immortal!

Chen Mo ordered them to dig a pit, and no one dared to disobey. They started digging last night, and by this morning they had dug a pit more than ten meters deep.

After digging the pit, Chen Mo had them build a coffin and then had the Nine-headed Monster Xiangliu spew out bursts of black mist and blood into a large pot to refine a black pill.

That black aura is resentment. People in this world say that resentment can breed evil spirits and monsters.

Chen Mo stuffed the Grievance Pill into the immortal's corpse, then sealed him in a coffin and buried him upside down in the ground.

"I feel like I can create something interesting."

As Chen Mo spoke, a smile appeared on his face. The immortal corpse that Xiangliu brought back was of the third rank, making it a good source of material.

In the parlance of this world, that would be the Core Formation Stage.

The energy of that Demonic Qi Pill is terrifying; it might even be able to create something at the fourth rank... no, it should be said that it's something at the Nascent Soul stage.

"So how many is it now? It should be eighty-three, right?"
