Chapter 2048: Saving the Demon
Han Li looked at the strange situation before him, and blue light flashed deep in his pupils, allowing him to see the two figures surrounded by the dozen or so silver demonic beasts in the distance more clearly.
It was a Demon race man who looked like an iron tower, and a Demon race elder with blue magic patterns imprinted on his cheeks.
Both of them were at the late-stage Void Refinement cultivation level!
The Demon race man was currently surging with demonic energy, and his two hands were dancing with a black giant staff, vaguely emitting the sound of wind and thunder.
As the giant staff flashed blurrily, waves of rumbling black energy rolled out from it, blocking most of the silver beasts outside.
The other Demon race elder, who had a pair of triangular green eyes, held a pitch-black round bowl in his hand, from which phantom images of strange birds about a foot in size kept pouncing out.
As soon as these phantom images touched the silver beasts pouncing near them, they immediately turned into clusters of gray light and exploded, forcing those silver beasts to retreat.
However, no matter if it was the black energy transformed by the giant staff or the explosion of the strange bird phantom images, it was clear that they could only barely resist those silver demonic beasts and could not cause them too much damage.
These demonic beasts were as tough as ordinary magic treasures, and after being bounced away, they would pounce again without caring at all.
If this continued, once the magic power of these two Demon race members was exhausted, it would naturally be their death day.
Judging from the powerful aura remaining on the corpse of the demonic beast with five-colored strange horns beside them, it should be the Beast King he was looking for.
It had actually already been killed! Could it be that those two Demon race members did it? Even if these two had strong magic power, how could they have achieved this?
Even though Han Li was quick-witted, he was still somewhat puzzled after seeing all this.
However, the Beast King was gone, yet these demonic beasts had not completely dispersed, which was something unexpected.
As Han Li's thoughts turned, he couldn't help but ponder how he should act next.
The green demonic beasts in front seemed to know that Han Li was not easy to deal with, so they just blocked the opposite side and did not pounce over fearlessly like some ordinary demonic beasts.
They and Han Li maintained a stalemate for the time being.
Just when Han Li was still somewhat hesitant, the Demon race man who was being besieged in the distance suddenly shouted at his companion:
"Old Wu, we can't wait any longer. The effect of the Beast-Repelling Incense is about to pass, and we must leave this place immediately. I will sacrifice my vitality to entangle these beasts, and you hurry up and cast a spell to send us away."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Demon race man immediately let out an angry roar, his aura became extremely violent, and at the same time, the staff shadows rolling in his hands became more than twice as dense as before, actually blocking the silver beasts pouncing toward the Demon race elder outside.
"Good, Brother Tie, be careful."
Upon hearing this, the Demon race elder agreed without hesitation, flipped his palm, and the round bowl disappeared without a trace. Replacing it, he suddenly had an extra crystal-clear, pitch-black crystal stone, which he threw in front of him and began to chant.
A strange scene appeared.
As the crystal stone spun, it actually sprayed out countless black light threads, which intertwined and flickered, forming a black magic array about a zhang in size ten zhang away.
A loud boom!
This black magic array was slowly rotating in the air, looking like it had been activated on its own.
"Alright, let's go!"
The Demon race elder hurriedly greeted the man, his figure flickered, and he pounced toward the magic array without hesitation.
Seeing this, the Demon race man on the other side frantically danced the giant staff in his hands, forcibly forcing back the few silver beasts nearby, and also turned into a stream of black energy and flashed toward the magic array.
Clearly, the two were going to use the power of this magic array to escape from the encirclement of the beast herd.
But just as the two Demon race members were about to succeed as planned, an accident occurred!
Fluctuations arose above the magic array, and another silver beast appeared strangely, lowered its head, opened its mouth, and a silver light pillar flashed and hit the center of the magic array.
A heaven-shaking loud noise!
The black magic array's light flickered, then burst open, and violent fluctuations rolled in all directions.
This scene immediately made the two Demon race members who had already pounced nearby feel cold in their hearts, and their figures stopped in place as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
But those silver beasts did not hesitate because of this; instead, they swarmed up without any hesitation, surrounding the two again.
Almost at the same time, the huge circle transformed by the faint green smoke around them also disappeared with a light sound.
The other demonic beasts on the periphery that had been standing still immediately let out countless roars and surged toward the two Demon race members like a tide.
In the blink of an eye, the angry shouts of the two Demon race members came from the beast herd, and the sounds of explosions and giant roars also rose.
Clearly, the two Demon race members, facing a desperate situation, also had the heart to fight for their lives, no longer sparing their magic power and vitality, and fought desperately as well.
Han Li, who was watching all this from afar, had his gaze flicker slightly, then suddenly pinched a spell with one hand, and golden light shone on his body. Black scales appeared on his skin, and at the same time, a powerful demonic energy erupted from his body, turning into a terrifying giant pressure that pressed down on the beast herd opposite him with great momentum.
The green beasts blocking the way let out hissing low chirps under this giant pressure and retreated one after another, but their eyes looking at Han Li became increasingly fierce.
"I don't know which senior is here. We are the Dharma Protectors of Blood Crow City. I hope the senior will save us. We will definitely repay the senior's great kindness afterwards."
"The junior is the only son of the Elder of the Ghost Crow clan. If the senior is willing to save us, our clan will also not forget the senior's kindness."
As soon as Han Li activated the Pseudo-Demon Bead and created such a momentum, the two Demon race members immediately discovered Han Li's existence and shouted frantically as if they had grabbed the last straw.
Seeing this, Han Li smiled slightly, scanned the green beasts blocking the way, and suddenly took a step forward.
With a blur, a figure appeared above the green beasts in a flash.
Seeing this, the green beasts had no intention of retreating; instead, with a long whistle, all the demonic beasts shook their hard fur, turning into dense green rays, and shot frantically toward the figure in the sky.
"Interesting!"
Han Li chuckled, clenched his two hands into fists, and a layer of black light appeared on his back, which then turned into countless black fist shadows and struck frantically downward.
Even though those green rays were astonishing in number, how could they be the opponent of the attack transformed by the Brahma Saint True Demon Art?
Under the impact of the terrifying power of those fist shadows, they burst open one after another on the way.
Then, hundreds of green beasts were beaten into meat paste on the spot by the black fist shadows, while Han Li himself shook his shoulders and disappeared in the sky again.
After performing the strange escape technique, Han Li appeared above the Demon race man and the elder in a few flashes, crossed his arms, and scanned downward coldly.
At this time, the two Demon race members were back-to-back, desperately driving their demonic arts and several treasures to resist the countless demonic beasts.
Those ordinary demonic beasts were fine, but the green beasts and the dozen or so silver beasts from before left the two with no energy to resist, and it seemed they might be completely submerged by the beast herd at any time.
"Saving you is fine, but do one thing for me afterwards." Han Li said calmly without haste.
"Fine, as long as the senior is willing to save the two of us. Our lives will be the senior's." The Demon race man shouted frantically without any consideration in such a situation.
And in this short moment, a silver beast had broken through his demonic art defense and left several deep claw marks on his shoulder, almost exposing the white bone.
The Demon race elder naturally agreed repeatedly as well.
After hearing this, Han Li chuckled, and with a thunderous sound on his back, crystal-clear green-white wings appeared. With a slight flap, countless green-white thunder balls appeared densely.
But Han Li himself pinched a spell, and he and the thunder balls disappeared in the void again.
The two Demon race members below only heard a heaven-shaking roar everywhere, and countless silver arcs intertwined and flickered from the void, instantly condensing into a giant electric net a mile in size, and fell down fiercely.
In an instant, electric arcs bounced and jumped among the demonic beasts, bursting open inch by inch, causing clusters of thunder flowers to condense instantly, but they immediately bloomed and raged.
The void below actually became a sea of thunder and lightning.
But unbelievably, the Demon race man and the elder were safe and sound in such astonishing thunder light. Not only did no electric arcs hurt them, but an electric curtain formed nearby, protecting them tightly.
As for the other various demonic beasts, under such astonishing thunder and lightning strikes, most of them turned into ashes. When the electric light finally converged and disappeared, although some high-level demonic beasts survived, they were also scorched, and only one or two out of ten remained.
And these remaining demonic beasts, after such a thunder strike, could no longer muster the courage to be fierce, and turned their heads to flee outward one after another.
"Senior, hurry up and wipe out those silver-necked beasts. As long as these high-level demonic beasts are wiped out, the beast tide will immediately collapse, and it will be impossible for a Beast King to be born in the beast herd for a hundred years." Seeing this scene, the Demon race man was naturally pleasantly surprised, but immediately remembered something and shouted respectfully at Han Li.
"Silver-necked beasts?"
Upon hearing this, Han Li narrowed his eyes and sent his spiritual sense to the dozen or so silver beasts that had escaped more than a hundred zhang away.
The demonic beasts the Demon race man spoke of were naturally these eye-catching high-level demonic beasts.
Each of these silver beasts had the strength of an early-stage Void Refinement cultivator, and they had all survived the thunder strike just now. If he wanted to wipe them all out, he would really have to make another move.
Han Li's thoughts only turned slightly, and he pinched a spell with one hand and made another move.
With a light "pu chi" sound, golden light flashed on his back, and a three-headed, six-armed golden Dharma image appeared.
As soon as this Dharma image appeared, it shook its shoulders and expanded several times in the wind, becoming more than ten zhang tall, and then its six golden eyes opened at the same time.
