Chapter 128
Liu Xiu:!
You're the weak one!
Your whole family is weak!
He tolerated Qiaoqiao drawing turtles on his body, but this guy surnamed Cheng actually said he was weak?! After being reborn through the Immortality Pill, his magic power greatly increased, and his cultivation level was even higher than before. What makes him think he's weak?
His ability to break free from the seal and escape from Wen Zhi's storage ring has already proven his strength.
The Commandant Feng raised an eyebrow. "That voice... isn't it Liu Xiu's?"
Upon hearing this, the others realized that the voice undoubtedly belonged to Liu Xiu, but wasn't he dead? Looking at the Devil Qi emanating from him, their expressions turned serious.
"I think this must be the effect of that batch of pills."
"It seems we can finally figure out what kind of pill was being refined in that furnace from him." The Commandant Feng smiled meaningfully.
A chill ran down Liu Xiu's spine. What were they planning to do?!
He tried to run, but he was met head-on by the force of the Radiant Dragon. His whole body felt like it was glued to a tree branch, and he didn't have the strength to move. As the group drew closer, he trembled even more violently.
"You, you--"
"Those people on Ethereal Peak are dividing up Bing Yan's magical Law Treasure down below, aren't you all going to do anything about it?!"
"Qiaoqiao even stole that demon core! That was a demon core from the Tribulation Transcendence Stage!!" he shouted. "She's clearly a robber! You don't even care about this? Is there no law in the Cultivation World?!"
The group exchanged glances, Elder Lin slowly said, "Although... there's no law in the Cultivation World anyway."
Unlike the Devil Race, which is ruled by Devil Master, they only have the rules and regulations of their respective sects.
Nangong Gua is dead, and his demon core is unclaimed. Whoever has the ability to take it can keep it.
The situation changed rapidly just now, and everyone was enjoying the drama. Not everyone reacted quickly enough to grab the demon core. Some people were afraid of Commandant Nangong's power and were not sure Nangong Gua was really dead, so they dared not get close.
The elders with higher cultivation levels thought even more deeply. Judging from the strange celestial phenomenon just now, those two Saint Pill were most likely problematic. Nangong Gua had absorbed Bing Yan's cultivation and was also affected by those pills.
However, a demon core is still a demon core; it is formed from Demon Power, not Spiritual Qi. Although Human Race cultivators can absorb cultivation from demon cores, they will also be affected by the demonic Yao Qi within them. The higher a cultivator's cultivation level, the more they fear this influence. Once they suffer a qi deviation due to Yao Qi Deviation, their entire life's cultivation will be destroyed. Taking that thing back might cost them their lives.
Therefore, they didn't rush to grab the demon core immediately. Only Bing Yan and Liu Xiu, having already reached a dead end, decided to take a gamble and didn't care about the Yao Qi's influence. They were the ones who most wanted to grab the demon core.
However, they all forgot that there was another person present who could easily neutralize the demonic Yao Qi within the demon core, making him the most suitable person for this demon core.
It was Fu Radiant Dragon Bloodline of Fu Fengyuan.
Today, the Dragon Race has become a legend in the Demon Realm, extinct in the three realms, but the Dragon Race originally belonged to the Demon Race.
Even Fu Fengyuan himself hadn't thought of this, but someone else had.
She's my junior sister.
Qiaoqiao made him swallow the demon core. The Radiant Dragon Bloodline was activated, and the Demon Race's instinct to devour was awakened. He began to frantically absorb the energy in the demon core. His Dantian was full, his meridians expanded, and his cultivation level increased at a terrifying speed.
Although Liu Xiu drew most people's attention, many still noticed the commotion.
"That's... the blood of the Radiant Dragon?!"
Who is that?
"They seem to be disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect."
"I never imagined the Flowing Cloud Sect was so full of hidden talents. Now that he's obtained the demon core, he's likely to soar to great heights."
The Flowing Cloud Sect really came out on top this time. Not only did they win the grand competition, they also got a demon core for free. It's something to be envied.
And all of this is inextricably linked to that little girl with smiling, crescent-shaped eyes who was surrounded by disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect.
Amidst the green mountains and trees, she stood out so brightly in her apricot-yellow dress, delicate and lovely, light and beautiful, like a small flower blooming in spring. She seemed so pure and harmless, yet behind her smile, it was as if tiny black tentacles were reaching out, eager to manipulate people's hearts and instill fear in them.
Junior Sister Qiao, you are truly terrifying.
Facing the curious and envious gazes directed at Fu Fengyuan from all directions, Shen Ji reacted quickly. "Protect Fourth Junior Brother."
"Clear."
Shen Ji pointed his sword into the air, and the sword's phantom image enveloped Fu Fengyuan. At the same time, Xiao Tingyu set up an array to ensure that Fu Fengyuan's absorption of the demon core would not be disturbed.
The elders of the Flowing Cloud Sect arrived with their disciples. Upon seeing the situation, they immediately understood what had happened and shouted, "Flowing Cloud Sect disciples, form ranks and protect the young sect master!"
"Yes!"
The disciples responded loudly, quickly forming a battle formation around Fu Fengyuan, their swords forming an impenetrable line.
Inheriting the Sword Immortal Liuyun's Flowing Cloud Sword Formation, the Sword Qi soared into the sky, its momentum overwhelming.
The shadowy swords swirled around the Radiant Dragon's silhouette in mid-air, their roars echoing through the valley, creating a truly magnificent scene.
Qiaoqiao couldn't help but exclaim, "[Our Flowing Cloud Sect is so cool!]"
The senior brothers and sisters all felt proud, and even Shen Ji straightened his back a bit. In front of the four sects, this was the most triumphant moment for the Flowing Cloud Sect.
Before the Flowing Cloud Sword Formation, all the malicious gazes disappeared. Since the demon core was already in Fu Fengyuan's mouth and he couldn't be made to spit it out, no one wanted to openly break with the Flowing Cloud Sect, especially with Qiaoqiao still standing below.
