Slaying Demons: Starting with Upgrading my Calligraphy-Chapter 508 - 444: All My Eyes!

Bang!

With a massive explosion, flesh and blood burst apart, the right shoulder of the colossal figure reminiscent of an ancient demon god shattered, spilling magma-like blood that splashed like a river, melting and corroding the land within near a hundred-mile radius.

"Retract the physical body, the target is too large!"

With a low roar, the gigantic figure whose right shoulder was shattered transformed into a snake-headed human figure, with tightly packed bristles growing on its cheeks, clad in tattered robes, stepping on demon clouds as a Demon King.

Most of its body was stained red with blood, and strands of the Triple Yin Profound Sha drilled into its body like living creatures, causing the Dao Body Realm Demon King to show a face of pain, letting out a groan.

"Why, why can this lunatic exempt himself from the influence of the muddy fog."

Beside the Snake Demon King, another Demon King with a jade-like body, resembling a temple statue but with blood-red eerily eyes, showed a face of unwilling shock and anger.

"Don’t ask so much, let’s shake off this guy first.

His arrows carry a force of yin sha that will corrode our flesh. Right now, I can at most exert half of my power, don’t engage in a death battle with him."

Sensing the continuously eroding force of the Triple Yin Profound Sha within, the Snake Demon King cursed inwardly.

This wretched cultivator is even more insidious than their demon clan.

Silently, shooting arrows for ambush.

Moreover, this person seems to be able to exempt himself from the muddy fog influence, relentlessly pursuing them through the fog, occasionally firing arrows for an ambush.

The arrows also carry a bizarre secretive power aimed at corroding their demon flesh, greatly reducing their combat effectiveness.

Fortunate that he and Yu Xieluo traveled together, otherwise, if encountered this person alone, they might have already met their doom here.

About several miles behind the two demons.

Stepping on a cloud of Qingyun, Qi Xiu with one eye slightly narrowed, holding the Heaven-Earth Annihilation showing three illuminated ancient characters,

murmuring some ancient spell.

As he chanted, invisible and tiny characters transformed into Divine Marvel, gradually entwining the bowstring holding the terrifying large arrow of great momentum.

In the next moment!

A blurred image transmitted into Qi Xiu’s mind.

Just like a snow-covered coarse image on an old black-and-white TV from the eighties or nineties.

Though it’s unclear, it revealed the exact location.

"Catch!"

Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Qi Xiu swiftly released the two fingers holding the bow.

Boom—

A terrifying large arrow seemingly condensed from numerous air currents flew out violently, the vast unmatched power penetrated into the void, rushing towards the two fleeing Great Demons with unstoppable speed.

"This damned Southern Ming Wasteland, heaven bars earth separates, unable to timely transmit information can the existence of this beast remain unknown, unknowingly we’ll be ambushed and shot on countless fellow travelers."

Grabbing the injured right shoulder, the Snake Demon King spat out a large mass of dark purple liquid infusing with poisonous power, trying to fight poison with poison to expel the Triple Yin Profound Sha within.

"Once we shake off this lunatic, use the Earth-Cleaving Shuttle to find the Grey-Robed Monk first, he surely has a way..."

Boom—

A terrifying large arrow appeared out of nowhere, concentrated with Heaven-Earth Annihilation power, and rushed into Yu Xieluo’s body.

"Ugh!"

In a flash!

The pupils of this Demon King lost all color, visible cracks swiftly spread across his body’s surface, the fearsome light surged within the cracks, causing his figure to swell, gradually transforming into a bizarre spherical shape.

"What..."

The pupils narrowed into thin lines, the Snake Demon King was completely stunned.

A second later.

Boom!

Yu Xieluo’s body cracked open, millions of Divine Light spewing out from the cracks, followed by a thunderous explosion, chunks of jade-like living tissues erupted like volcanoes, scattering in all directions, inundating the area of hundreds of miles with thick pale yellow blood.

"Damn it!"

The mind went completely blank in an instant, watching Yu Xieluo being exploded by an arrow right in front of him, the Snake Demon King couldn’t help but curse aloud, disregarding other concerns, he grasped the soul core of Yu Xieluo, transformed into a swirl of black wind, and desperately fled far away.

...

"The power is still slightly lacking, it seems I must illuminate all four characters of Heaven-Earth Annihilation to shoot dead a Dao Body Demon King with one arrow.

Otherwise, at most, I can shatter their physical body.

But wanting to fully revive this great bow requires too much time.

By the time I finish gathering power, they will have long run out of surveillance range."

Stowing away Heaven-Earth Annihilation, Qi Xiu shook his head and accelerated in pursuit of the two escaped Demon Kings.

At the same time, intermittent, black-and-white crossed images continuously transmitted into his mind, sending the position direction of the fleeing two Demon Kings.

...

"What’s happening, why can’t we shake him off, why!"

Turning his head back to glance, the Snake Demon King spat out a long forked tongue, his vertical pupils trembling.

Although unable to see the Human Cultivator who has been relentlessly hunting and ambushing them, as a Great Demon, the instinctive awareness in his bloodline keeps alerting him.

A danger sufficient to threaten life, right behind him.

Southern Ming Wasteland, muddy fog permeating.

All Divine Sense, detection, calculation techniques completely fail.

Even for these Dao Experts, they can only rely on pure eyesight.

Yet the Human Cultivator chasing them behind seems unaffected by this restriction, persistently pursuing them.

But he doesn’t dare to run too fast.

This continent is fraught with peril, as the final battlefield site of the Middle Ancient Era, it holds many extremely dangerous forbidden zones.

Accidentally breaking into one, death comes faster.

"Wait, what’s that?"

As he skimmed past a shallow marsh, the Snake Demon King’s dark red vertical pupils suddenly flickered, noticing something in the swirling murky mist not far from him.

A straight-standing figure appeared and disappeared in the fog.

Perhaps due to the marsh, the murky mist here was somewhat thinner, allowing him to see the silhouette hidden within it.

The figure was a man wearing robes of the Human Race.

His face was deathly pale, a stiff yet fervent smile hung at the corners of his mouth. His eyes widened, bloodshot, and staring intently at him, muttering under his breath.

"I see him, I see him, I see him..."

Such a bizarre and eerie scene unnerved the Snake Demon King, even though he was a demon himself, making him feel shivers run down his spine, causing his scales to instinctively rise.

Meanwhile, Qi Xiu, who was rushing over, paused and squinted slightly:

"Have they been discovered?"

He didn’t have the ability to resist the influence of the murky mist.

The reason he could lock onto the Snake Demon King’s location was because he used the most primitive method.

Human surveillance!

After a long period of observation and testing, he had confirmed that turning remnants into Tenacity Retention souls did not have any anomalies or side effects.

They simply evolved from remnants into the more eerie Tenacity Retention.

The roots of these Tenacity Retentions preserved the original remnants’ form, which was their undying faith in him.

Since he had confirmed that transforming remnants into Tenacity Retention souls had no repercussions.

How could he let this exceptional opportunity slip away?

With a thought, he released all fifty-seven thousand four hundred and thirty-three remnants kneeling before Yama’s Palace, letting the Strange Force of the Southern Ming Wasteland convert them all into Tenacity Retention!

Moreover, once transformed into Tenacity Retention, the influence of the murky mist was reduced, allowing him to receive the images they saw through an inexplicable connection with them.

Thus, an insane plan unfolded.

Qi Xiu released all fifty-seven thousand four hundred and thirty-three remnants.

Because they were also Tenacity Retention, they wouldn’t suffer attacks from the original Ancient Cultivators’ Tenacity Retentions.

These Tenacity Retentions became Qi Xiu’s human surveillance network.

Within nearly ten thousand miles, his Tenacity Retentions permeated every corner.

So Qi Xiu had never broken through the murky mist’s blockade.

He merely acquired fifty-seven thousand four hundred and thirty-three pairs of eyes!

Seeing the Snake Demon King discover the Tenacity Retentions monitoring him, Qi Xiu instantly sped towards him.

No Dao Expert is foolish.

Even the slightest clue is enough to deduce the truth.

Once word got out that he could control Tenacity Retention, it would inevitably bring him endless trouble.

Not just from the demons, but from the Human Race too.

Therefore, these two demons.

Must die!

"This Tenacity Retention seems different, doesn’t it?"

Discovering Qi Xiu’s Tenacity Retention monitoring them, suspicion filled the Snake Demon King’s slender vertical pupils.

But before he could think further.

That ever-present, shadow-like sense of danger suddenly approached.

What’s going on? 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

How did it catch up so suddenly?

As the thought arose, the Snake Demon King’s scales suddenly spread with wisps of snow-white ice crystals.

"This is..."

Alarmed, the Snake Demon King’s heart raced wildly.

Not good!

Boom——

A terrifying storm of frost white swept through like an ancient cold abyss True Dragon awakening, its form vague yet fierce, carrying boundless cold and destruction. Ice spears, resembling three-foot green blades, hidden within the storm crushed mountains and rivers, endless frost obliteration threatening an era of ice-bound extinction across all of heaven and earth.

The vision was filled with rapidly spreading white frost signifying death and destruction.

The Snake Demon King dared not hesitate, drew a deep breath, and from behind emerged a towering figure wielding a spear, clad in ancient sinister adornments, gazing with deep ink-blue eyes, exceeding a thousand feet, torrential toxic mist swirling around it.

Green Abyssal Sand King!

Upon summoning the Daoist Spirit, the Snake Demon King, with a single thought, prompted the enormous towering form behind him to spew, unleashing a torrential poison mist reaching the sky, twisting the void, severing all life, as if filling Qiankun with poison.

One white, one green!

The two tides crashed into each other!

In the next moment!

The two colliding forces transformed into an immensely horrifying vortex, collapsing a thousand miles of void under its residual pressure, with reverberating explosions intensifying into a storm of power threatening to turn this area into a forbidden land.

Aside from the ambush, this person is quite ordinary.

Seeing the storm being repelled, the Snake Demon let out a cold laugh.

But hidden from his sight, within some corner of the murky mist.

Qi Xiu, with a calm expression, had once again raised the Frost Cloud Flame in his hand.

If one swing’s power wasn’t enough.

Then... I’ll swing it a few more times.

...
