UGB Chapter 28 The Vine Demon King
Chapter 28 The Vine Demon King
During the early calamity of the Dragon and Han dynasties, the Qilin clan was able to lead the beast races of the prehistoric continent and compete with the Dragon and Phoenix clans for the position of overlord of heaven and earth, relying on their decisive and ruthless methods of suppressing everything.
Therefore, the bloodline of the Qilin clan contains a cruel and bloodthirsty nature.
Mo Yuan, however, kept a low profile and valued harmony above all else, hiding his murderous nature deep within his blood and bones, preventing it from clouding his judgment.
Now that the demon race has taken the initiative to attack, how can he possibly avoid their sharp edge?
Mo Yuan frowned slightly as he fled towards the horizon. He wanted to find a burial place for those demonic villains, using their blood and essence to nourish the primordial land, thus making good use of their waste.
Mo Yuan moved very quickly, and in just a few days he arrived at a plain.
Yellow sand filled the sky, and scattered stones were everywhere; there was no sign of life on the land.
In the past war between the Dao and the Demon, the Demon Ancestor Rahu detonated the ley lines of the Western world, causing widespread devastation and destruction. This earth-shattering event also affected the other three continents.
The plain where Mo Yuan was located was situated at the border between the Southern Continent and the Buzhou Mountain region, and was called Chixia River. It was also a blessed land for cultivation during the early Dragon-Han Tribulation, with crimson clouds floating between heaven and earth, formed by the fire element law and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
But now, it has become a scorched wasteland, with no living beings within millions of miles, and not even a trace of spiritual herbs or trees can be seen.
"The earth's veins are completely destroyed, the spiritual veins are extinguished, and the water veins have all dried up."
"Furthermore, the connection between the Crimson Cloud River and the countless volcanoes of the Southern Continent has been severed, so there are no more fire-elemental laws within this million-mile expanse of land, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has long been exhausted."
"By watering the Crimson Cloud River with the blood and essence of those demonic villains, perhaps some changes will occur here!"
Mo Yuan stood on the land of Chixia River, his body exuding an aura of compassion and empathy. He circulated the Earth Dao Ancestral Qi Scripture and used the Thick Earth Resonance Technique to clearly perceive everything within the territory of Chixia River.
Repairing the earth veins, spiritual veins, and water veins of this place will be quite difficult for him, but he can still succeed if he puts in some effort.
"Hundreds of demon soldiers and generals, and even a genuine demon king. It seems that the demon race has really set its sights on me."
"I'll meet force with force and water with earth; I also want to hone my combat skills in a bloody battle!"
Mo Yuan withdrew his supernatural powers and spoke softly.
Mo Yuan did not initially harbor any hostility towards the demon race.
However, after leaving Fenglin Continent and encountering the so-called Xuan Gu Demon King, as well as his previous experience with the demon Xuan Zhi Zi, he no longer had any goodwill towards the demon race.
There is nothing wrong with vying for supremacy in the primordial world and seeking the position of overlord of heaven and earth.
But if you offend him, you are guilty of a grave sin, and can only be sent back to the embrace of heaven and earth to become fertilizer for the Crimson Cloud River.
Demonic energy soared to the heavens, and evil aura wafted through the air.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of figures appeared before Mo Yuan.
The appearances of those demons were all strange and varied. Some had leopard heads, while others had several tails. Although they had all undergone transformation, very few of them showed themselves in their true innate Dao body form.
"The lowest cultivation level is Xuanxian, and the majority are Zhenxian. The leading demon king is a genuine Jinxian powerhouse, and his cultivation level is not low."
"It seems the drama of fighting across realms has finally fallen on my shoulders!"
Mo Yuan remained unmoved, silently muttering a couple of complaints to himself.
The difference in their levels is like an insurmountable chasm.
This statement is indeed incredibly true, but only for ordinary people.
Mo Yuan was confident that he could fight a Taiyi Golden Immortal head-on, and he could also escape at any time.
His confidence stemmed from the will of Pangu and the Qilin Seal.
"Young Master Mo Yuan of the Qilin Clan, why aren't you running away? Do you intend to fight us to the death here?"
A slightly thin demon general, exuding a strong aura of demonic energy, looked at Mo Yuan with a mocking expression and spoke slowly, his tone carrying a hint of sarcasm.
This demon general possesses the cultivation level of a peak True Immortal, wields a blood-red longsword, and has three tails resembling steel whips growing from his back, giving him a fierce and menacing appearance.
"Crack Bone, you underestimate the young master of the Qilin Clan too much! He's able to befriend the Wu Clan within the Buzhou Mountain region and has even gained the favor of the Ancestral Witch Houtu. He must be quite capable. Perhaps he intends to wipe us out in this Crimson Cloud River!"
Another True Immortal Peak Demon General, with a cold face and a snake head on each side of his head, spoke sarcastically, showing that he did not take Mo Yuan seriously at all.
At this moment, the Demon King, surrounded by his demon soldiers and generals, stepped forward.
He was tall and slender, with skin as pale as jade, and dark green magical veins visible beneath his skin. His features were cold and stern, and his eyes were constantly spinning deep green vortexes filled with scarlet blood vessels.
His long, dark robe seemed to be woven from vines and ancient tree bark, and it made a piercing sound with his breathing, revealing his mid-stage Golden Immortal cultivation.
"I am revered by the world as the Vine Demon King. I have five demon generals at the peak of True Immortal level and hundreds of demon soldiers with cultivation levels ranging from Profound Immortal to True Immortal. I have received an imperial decree from the Heavenly Court and enjoy the fortune of the demon race."
"If you know what's good for you, kneel down and kowtow immediately to become my mount; otherwise, you will only face death."
The Vine Demon King raised the corners of his mouth slightly and spoke to Mo Yuan in a condescending manner.
After Mo Yuan left the Buzhou Mountain area and the territory of the Wu tribe, he became the object of desire for several demon kings. The Vine Demon King forcefully declared that Mo Yuan belonged to him, intimidating them and forcing them to retreat to their own territory.
By taking Mo Yuan as his mount, he could torment him day and night at will. Mo Yuan was his pet, a blood meal that he could feed on at any time, or he could take some scales, flesh and blood to reward his subordinates.
If one wishes to elevate their status in the Heavenly Court in the future, then one should offer Mo Yuan to the powerful figures above them, and power and rewards will naturally follow.
"Arrogant and conceited!"
"I'm not going to waste my breath on you; you don't deserve to listen!"
"Five-colored light shatters the heavens, the Qilin stomps the sky!"
Mo Yuan's chest burned with rage, and his long-suppressed killing intent could no longer be contained. He directly unleashed the Qilin Clan's divine power, unwilling to give these demons in front of him any chance to breathe.
The reason they were called demons was that Mo Yuan discovered they were all tainted by bloodshed, especially the five demon generals and the Vine Demon King, who had devoured countless lives and had long since fallen into the demonic path.
Mo Yuan boasted that he was irreconcilably opposed to the demonic path.
Only by condemning these monstrous and evil beings to eternal damnation can his murderous intent be quelled.
"This kid's pretty ruthless!"
"Bone-Splitter and Demonic Python, both of you attack together and suppress it!"
The Vine Demon King showed a shocked expression. He did not expect Mo Yuan to be so decisive, using the Qilin Clan's divine power right away, as if he wanted to fight them to the death.
The Vine Demon King sensed the provocation from Mo Yuan and had already planned how to devour his flesh and blood and use his blood essence to enhance its own cultivation after the latter was suppressed.
Five-colored light condensed in front of Mo Yuan's chest, then transformed into a gray beam of light filled with the rules of annihilation. Under Mo Yuan's control, it directly attacked the hundreds of demon scoundrels in the distance.
At the same time, the Earth Law within the Chixia River region converged towards Mo Yuan, and his blood energy, physical strength, and magical power all flowed into his limbs, creating a golden hoofprint that covered hundreds of miles.
Overwhelming, crushing everything in its path.
The golden hoofprint, like a meteorite, hurtled straight at the faces of the five demon generals, including Liegu and Yaomang. None of them realized that the Taihao Flying Knife was hidden within this attack.
"Qianyuan Pagoda, suppress it!"
Mo Yuan did not stop. He activated the low-grade innate spiritual treasure to seal the space, preventing the Xuanxian and Zhenxian realm demons who were already trembling with fear from escaping.
"How can this child be so powerful?"
The Vine Demon King frowned, and his breathing became rapid.
But before he could make a move, Mo Yuan's divine power landed around him.
Smoke and dust billowed, and blood splattered everywhere.
His men didn't even have a chance to escape; in an instant, they turned into a rain of blood and fell to the ground.
The two demon generals, on whom he had placed high hopes, seemed to have encountered something terrifying. The expressions on their faces froze, and they allowed the golden hoofprints to land on them, sending them flying.
Then, their bodies fell limply to the ground. When the Vine Demon King looked at them, he found that their brows had been pierced by some kind of sharp blade, and their primordial spirits had long been destroyed.
"Water Elemental Pearl!"
Take advantage of his illness and kill him.
Mo Yuan then unleashed the mid-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Water Element Pearl. The essence of Ren water and the Daoist rhyme of water surged forth, instantly transforming into three ferocious and terrifying water dragons radiating immense dragon might.
The three water dragons seemed to possess intelligence, and they charged directly at the remaining three demon generals, while Taihao Flying Knife secretly sought an opportunity, ready to kill the demon generals again at any moment.
"I should have realized that as the young master of the Qilin clan, you must possess several treasures. It's all my fault for being careless, causing the Bone Crack and the Demon Python generals to lose their lives in vain. But now you have no more chance to be arrogant."
The Vine Demon King said with deep regret.
With a slight movement of his magic, countless vines appeared behind him, each shimmering with an eerie light, like venomous snakes with life, locking Mo Yuan firmly in place.
With a territory spanning tens of millions of miles, he is definitely not someone to be underestimated. Don't underestimate him just because he is only at the mid-stage of the Golden Immortal realm; his combat power is enough to make even late-stage Golden Immortal experts wary.
He was a demon king who had grown up through battles and dodging numerous schemes. How could he possibly lose his dignity as a demon king in front of Mo Yuan and even suffer a miserable defeat?
"kill!"
"Let's march on together with the King!"
Having narrowly escaped death under the Five-Colored Sky-Shattering Light, the demon scoundrels of the True Immortal Realm, upon seeing the Vine Demon King personally take action, charged towards Mo Yuan like fanatical believers.
His eyes were filled with hatred and greed, as if he wanted to devour Mo Yuan alive.
"Since you're so eager to die, then I'll grant your wish!"
A cold glint flashed in Mo Yuan's eyes as he spoke casually.
He stopped speaking and simply focused on unleashing his supernatural powers.
Five-colored light crashes down from the sky, and a Qilin treads upon the heavens in a strike.
Despite the risk of having his mana drained from his meridians, Mo Yuan unleashed two more divine abilities, each even more powerful than the last.
In particular, the Qilin Sky-Treading Strike incorporates a wisp of pure ancestral energy, giving it the weight and suppressive power of the earth.
The price was that this pure ancestral energy was consumed, and he would need to re-condense it later.
But he didn't care!
After unleashing his supernatural power, he turned his gaze to the Vine Demon King.
"Should we summon the Primordial Mirror, or activate the Qilin Seal?"
"Or perhaps, let's first have a bloody battle to test the strength of this demon king..."
For a moment, Mo Yuan was actually a little conflicted.
