Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 306 - 165: Fierce Battle Against the Mountain Demon
Under the expectant gazes of the Human Race, the divine figure blazed with intense light.
Suddenly, the distinctive long chant of the Divine Elephant under the True Monarch’s seat was heard.
The Mountain Ghosts from South Mountain who were rampaging and slaughtering suddenly paused at this moment, instinctively sensing the terrifying and dangerous aura emanating from the golden light.
"True Monarch above, we greet thee!"
Amidst thousands of ghostly shadows, all of the Human Race knelt to the ground, facing the golden light, bowing repeatedly.
Hanshang’s expression was one of humility.
Ang!
General Wei landed, his body shining brightly, and dozens of Mountain Ghosts turned to flying ash in an instant.
Xu Guang paid no mind to these; he stared in disbelief at the offerings on the table in the distance, a mountain of Spirit Crystals making his eyelids twitch.
These... are for me!?
He snapped back to reality and looked towards the terrifying Mountain Demon rising in the distance, truly a Great Demon cultivated from a mountain. It seemed that because it was originally formed from stone, the Yang Qi on its body was much greater than the demonic entities he had encountered before.
Its need for human flesh was not as intense as that of ordinary demon beasts.
But...
That was before.
Once it tasted human flesh, its desire for human blood and flesh would gradually increase.
If Xu Guang were not present, Hanshang and her group would likely choose to offer the blood and flesh of their kind to nurture this Mountain Demon, seeking refuge.
But...
Xu Guang’s eyes revealed murderous intent.
A buzzing sound resonated through heaven and earth, ringing in everyone’s ears.
Countless Sword Qi drifted and danced in the air, cutting through the atmosphere, and starlight faintly gleamed.
"Who goes there!"
The Mountain Demon, who had existed for countless years and already attained intelligence, let out a howl. Although it was not a language of the Human Race, it sounded like a universal language of many races, easily understood.
General Wei carried Xu Guang forward one step.
Hanshang rose to her feet, shouting at the Mountain Demon.
"The Nine Heavens Divine Elephant Evil-slaying True Monarch is here, demon, will you not meet your end!?"
Xu Guang gave Hanshang an approving glance; this Saintess was surely on the right path. He used his Qi Strength Divine Thought to encompass Hanshang’s voice, transmitting it through the thick darkness like thunder rolling in the clouds.
"The Nine Heavens Divine Elephant Evil-slaying True Monarch is here, demon, will you not meet your end!?"
"Will you not meet your end!?"
Her voice echoed through the air, drawing the attention of everyone, even the Mountain Ghosts avoiding General Wei, who couldn’t help but look up.
The Mountain Demon slowly rose, countless rocks sliding from its movement, tumbling down. In a moment, dust billowed, mingling with the black fog, making it indistinct.
Lava gushed, the geopathic Yin Qi was unbalanced, and myriad Fierce Ghosts emerged...
These were just chain reactions from the Mountain Demon’s movement.
Finally, its true form emerged.
Its enormous body was slightly smaller than Xu Guang had imagined, a small mountain of over three hundred meters, not all of it belonging to its body; its demon form was only over two hundred meters.
Xu Guang gazed at the entity, his eyes gradually growing solemn.
The aura on this Mountain Demon...
It’s akin to that of a Fourth Grade!
This was the first existence he had encountered where his Martial Master’s Might was completely ineffective.
If he were in the real world, he had the means to attack the city, and at most, he would pay the price of life and death rebirth. He could shoot down this foe with Sunfall.
But this is the Dark World, with him and General Wei merely materialized through Divine Descent, making some of the real world’s techniques and extraordinary cultivation difficult to execute.
But...
He glanced at Hanshang, whose face was devout, and then at the expectant eyes raised at him.
An unprecedented surge of fervent energy rushed to his heart.
Faith is a form of power, and being venerated is a power in itself.
"Then today... let me cut Fourth Grade with Fifth Grade."
Clenching his fist, amidst the sky, the fierce wind howled, with the endless Power of Heaven and Earth seeming to accompany his arm, transforming into countless weapons.
Waves of power came crashing like tides.
Ah Wei also stepped forward, its body visibly enlarging. From an original height of just over ten meters, it grew to a hundred meters in an instant, obscuring the sky, as if able to shatter mountains.
This is a Dragon Race Demon Technique, not a Divine Technique, but under the blessing of the Divine Shadow, it seemed to possess the might of Heaven and Earth. Xu Guang took a step.
The accumulated endless Power of Heaven and Earth, under the cloak of the Power of the Stars, surged into Ah Wei’s divine shadow.
Heaven and Earth changed dramatically. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
The Mountain Demon no longer waited, finally revealing its true form, its body covered in violet strange rocks, resembling crystals or scales of a demon beast.
Treading on lava, sending up clouds of smoke, it charged at Ah Wei.
Ah Wei did not yield a step, carrying Xu Guang forward, with countless Sword Qi invoking the Heavenly Phenomenon, as if the twenty-four solar terms appeared simultaneously.
The seemingly eternal black mountain range suddenly collapsed.
Amidst the dust and smoke, the golden Divine Elephant raised its head and roared, its trunk as thick as a mountain beam entwined with Chaos Sword Light, sweeping fiercely, causing a hundred-mile geopathic line to lurch up like Underfloor Heating, crashing into the leaping violet scale Mountain Demon.
The Mountain Demon struck out with six claws, releasing a hundred strands of corrupt toxic Qi, coagulating into ten thousand skeletal phantoms gnawing at the golden light.
The Divine Shadow dimmed under the influence of the toxic miasma.
Ah Wei’s golden eyes shot heavenly beams, as if summoning the stars, and the dragon horn on its forehead suddenly lit up, revealing... Xu Guang!
He leapt high, with Innate Qi wildly surging within, enveloping the flourishing Power of Heaven and Earth from this dark world, transforming into a three-hundred-meter long sword to strike down heavily.
The Mountain Demon crossed its claws in the air, seemingly about to block the sword with its hands.
Rumble!
Black dust whirled, endless brilliance flowed, sword light, black fog, Power of Heaven and Earth...
The Mountain Demon heavily crashed to the ground, creating a pit several hundred meters wide.
Ah Wei let out a low roar, as the vast Blood Qi transformed into a crimson glow, isolating the heavens, the giant molten foot of the elephant crushed the mountain range, the momentum of the charge was like that of a collapsing sky, the upper and lower ivory tusks constructed of star-pure iron, cleaving through the endless smoke and dust, carrying the force of the Nine Heavens collapsing.
