Chapter 408: Demon Nest

"Boastful talk. A mere fifth-rank monster, what are you posturing for in front of me?"

One red and one blue light blade transformed into two massive giant wolves, appearing behind Ye Bai.

Countless rays of fire spilled out from the red giant wolf, the blinding light instantly blinding the Hell Spider's eyes.

"Dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth; if there is no mortal world, everything is but a delusion."

The Sun-Swallowing Sky Wolf transformed into a fiery red light, appearing in Ye Bai's hand.

Thousands of fiery red threads appeared in the air, entangling the body of the Hell Spider.

Ye Bai pulled sharply, blood splattered everywhere, and the Hell Spider's body was Cut into countless pieces.

The smell of scorched protein emanated from the body of the Hell Spider.

This was a pungent, toxic odor.

"It seems the extent of the demon invasion in Tianzhong City is more serious than imagined."

Ye Bai's gaze turned toward the two hooded men who had suddenly appeared.

"Indeed, it is much more serious than imagined."

"Otherwise, the demons would have already eaten the humans, donned human skin, and be playing a game of house."

"What exactly is the Pet Beast Guild of Tianzhong City doing? How could they not even notice that humans have been infiltrated to this degree?"

Loved ones living together day and night suddenly change—can those people really not feel it?

Or perhaps those who attempted to report it were all devoured by the demons, becoming food in their bellies.

"For now, we cannot worry about that much."

"Our actions seem to have attracted more demons."

"Tianzhong City has almost become a gathering place for demons."

"Kuimulang, make your move; let's finish this quickly."

Jingmuhan took a sip of wine and reminded Ye Bai.

His Deer God Hat possessed extremely strong sensory capabilities, able to perceive movement within a ten-kilometer radius.

Jingmuhan only felt countless malicious intents rushing in from afar.

Many demons wearing human skin revealed their human forms.

Ye Bai held the Beichen Sky Wolf Blade and swung it fiercely toward the distance.

Endless light blades flashed by, and the demons flying over were instantly torn to pieces.

"Let's go, we cannot continue this, or we will disturb other great demons."

Ye Bai called out to Jingmuhan and Guijinyang.

"Let's go, let's head to the Demon Nest."

The Mechanical Horse carried Ye Bai and the others, galloping toward the distance.

The Demon Nest was built beneath the famous ancient tombs of Tianzhong City.

Even the pottery figurines responsible for the exhibition had been possessed by demons, becoming the demons' Zhua.

However, these guards were killed with a single strike; Jingmuhan's Deer God Hat confused the demons' consciousness.

Making them kill each other, Ye Bai and the others soon arrived before an ancient stone gate.

In the deep darkness, a trace of eerie red light was faintly visible.

The ancient stone gate slowly opened, and countless dust motes flew up at this moment.

Behind the stone gate was a long, secluded passage; black water droplets dripped from the damp walls, making a ticking sound, and the smell of sulfur wafted through the air.

The stone walls on both sides were carved with strange and Weird patterns, appearing to be totems of some evil power, making one's hair stand on end.

The further in they went, the more intense that feeling of oppression became. From time to time, muffled groans could be heard from afar, as if unknown creatures were lurking in the dark, waiting for the arrival of prey.

From the cracks in the ground, the smell of sulfur occasionally emerged, accompanied by faint blue-green ghost fires, appearing exceptionally Weird.

Scattered on the ground were many white bones, some from demons and others from other Exotic Beasts, looking quite Weird.

Walking to the depths of the nest, the space suddenly opened up, and a huge underground cavern appeared before their eyes.

Inside appeared a massive portal, and countless Abyss Eggs fell like raindrops from the rotating spatial gate, then landed on the ground.

These Abyss Eggs would be transported in all directions by the Secondary Teleportation Array on the ground.

"Kuimulang, Guijinyang, wait for me a moment; I will observe the teleportation array here and see how to modify it so that the spatial coordinates can be changed to the Haoshen Abyss."

Jingmuhan said with a serious expression, lowering his voice to the two.

Ye Bai and the other nodded, then looked into the distance.

In the center of the cavern was a high platform like obsidian, upon which a huge Shadow was crouching.

It stood on the high platform, emitting muffled breathing sounds, as if waiting for something.

Scattered all around were various skeletons, some still emitting faint magical fluctuations, including both demons and other Exotic Beasts.

The black Shadow also had a pair of huge bat wings, its lower body was that of an ox hoof, and it had a long, narrow tail.

Suddenly, the Shadow on the high platform fiercely opened its Blood Basin Mouth, a chill accompanied by the aura of death rushed toward them, and the entire nest seemed to shake at this moment.

It seemed to have sensed something.

Subsequently, it plunged headlong into the portal.

"What kind of guard was that?"

"I feel the aura on it is at least around the eighth rank."

Guijinyang muttered; fortunately, this guy left suddenly, otherwise it really might have discovered them.

Exotic Beasts above the seventh rank possess a Domain.

If it possessed a Domain similar to reconnaissance, the three of them would have been easily discovered.

Jingmuhan picked up a charcoal pencil and wrote and drew on paper, while Guijinyang patted the Mechanical Horse beneath his feet.

The three Mechanical Horses immediately combined together, forming a spacious small hut.

"I applied a coating to this hut, so ordinary demons won't be able to discover it."

"Even demons with extremely strong perception won't be able to discover our existence."

"That just now almost scared me; I thought we had been discovered."

Guijinyang patted his chest.

He had treated this hut; even if ordinary demons saw it, they would only think it was an ordinary rock.

Time passed second by second, the guard did not return, and instead, more and more Abyss Eggs were being transported out.

"Got it, as long as we make this improvement, those Abyss Eggs will be transported into the Haoshen Abyss."

Demons know nothing about arrays; usually, such precisely designed teleportation arrays are designed by devils in Hell.

That huge guard from before looked like the type whose brain wasn't very sharp.

"Jingmuhan, what do we need to do now to be able to change the teleportation array?"

Guijinyang asked curiously.

"It's not difficult, just make a small adjustment and that will be it."

"I also learned a lot of new knowledge from this teleportation array."

"You send your Mechanical Birds to adjust this gemstone in this array to this position for me."

"Then adjust this gemstone to this position."

Jingmuhan gave the answer.

However, because his speaking speed was too fast, Guijinyang did not remember it.

"Jingmuhan, say it again."

"I didn't remember it."

Jingmuhan hadn't even opened his mouth yet.

Ye Bai used a slow speaking speed to tell Guijinyang once.

"See, young people still have better brains."

Jingmuhan found Ye Bai quite pleasing to the eye.

"Jingmuhan, Kuimulang awakened the Photographic Memory talent; if I had this talent, I would also be able to remember it."

"Is every teleportation array adjusted like this?"

Guijinyang continued to ask.

"Yes, just adjust it exactly as I said."

"To tell you the truth, it's not difficult; the difficult point now is how we can seal the demon nest."

"This demon nest is much larger than I imagined."

"If something goes wrong and the demons break out, the entire Tianzhong City could potentially turn into a paradise for demons."

Jingmuhan said with slight unease.

"It doesn't matter; once the teleportation array is changed, we can contact the people from the Tianzhong City Pet Beast Guild and set it up together."

"Guijinyang, everything is entrusted to you; you follow my instructions."

Countless light-bodied Mechanical Birds appeared.

Guijinyang manipulated these Mechanical Birds and they pounced toward the teleportation array.

They extremely nimbly removed a gemstone and instantly filled it into another position.

The moment the gemstone was removed, the teleportation began to slow down.

However, because the Mechanical Birds adjusted in time, there was not much impact on the internal structure of the teleportation array.

Guijinyang followed Jingmuhan's instructions and made adjustments step by step.

After the final step was completed, Guijinyang finally let out a sigh of relief.

"It's a good thing that guard didn't come back, otherwise we would be in big trouble."

As soon as Guijinyang finished saying this sentence, his mouth was directly covered by Jingmuhan.

"Don't speak."

"Kuimulang, this guy's jinxing mouth is very accurate."

"Must cover his mouth in time."

Just at this moment, movement came from the teleportation gate, and huge ox hooves came through the teleportation gate.

This incredibly huge demon had a giant goat head.

On top of its head were two sharp demon horns.

Its hands held two giant spiked clubs, and its feet were giant ox hooves.

It lowered its head to look at the teleportation array, and after ensuring the teleportation array was still operating normally, it walked step by step toward the throne and fell asleep as soon as it lay down.

Not long after, huge snoring sounds arose.

"My god, this guy is really carefree, but this is also good."

Ye Bai smiled.

"Then our mission is temporarily completed; let's withdraw directly."

Ye Bai had originally thought he would have to go through a bitter battle to be able to achieve his goal.

He didn't expect to complete the mission so easily.

"Wait a moment, I need to confirm with the troops stationed at the Haoshen Abyss whether any Abyss Eggs were transported over."

"If the Abyss Eggs were transported to other places, our infiltration operation this time would be a complete failure."

Ye Bai lowered his head and thought about it; that was indeed the logic.

Haoshen Abyss, this place has already been infiltrated by angels; regardless of day or night, it remains in a state of perpetual daylight.

At this moment, Abyss Eggs fell one after another from the sky, crashing directly onto the ground.

In this Haoshen Abyss filled with light-attribute energy.

Light-attribute energy is like concentrated sulfuric acid to demons.

They are temporarily protected by the shells of the Abyss Eggs and will not hatch for the time being.

Once the Angel Army descends, these demons will certainly appear and fight the Angel Army to the death.

At this time, the one responsible for guarding is Youji.

"According to intelligence from Tianzhong City, the Abyss Eggs have already been transferred here."

"The demon statues have also been moved by us to this Secret Realm."

"I believe that when the angels descend, it will definitely give those big guys a huge surprise."

"Now, immediately use the Mechanical Bird to transmit the intelligence that the Abyss Eggs have descended."

Very quickly, Guijinyang received the intelligence.

"Withdraw the team; the Abyss Eggs have already been transported to the Haoshen Abyss."

"Our plan to drive the wolf to swallow the tiger has succeeded."

"I estimate that the moment those angels descend, they will be completely dumbfounded, thinking to themselves how there could be so many demons here."

Demons and angels are mortal enemies, the kind of enemies that must fight until one side is dead.

So many Abyss Eggs are enough to make the angels suffer.

After the three of them retreated outside the demon nest.

The task of changing the teleportation array, while seemingly simple, still took nearly half a day.

Jingmuhan then became troubled.

"How should I set up a large-scale Barrier?"

After the Abyss Eggs were teleported away, the demons here became like duckweed without roots.

Once the demon nest is sealed, the demons will swarm up like moths to a flame, attempting to undo the seal on the demon nest.

"Kuimulang, you go first to notify the president of the Tianzhong City Pet Beast Guild and have him start clearing out the demons in Tianzhong City."

"Demons are exceptionally disgusted by light-attribute skills; they wear human skin precisely to resist light-attribute skills."

"In order for you to effectively recognize demons, I will teach you a method."

Jingmuhan drew a large eye pattern on Ye Bai's hand.

"With this pattern, you will be able to distinguish the reality of demons and humans."

In fact, it didn't need to be that troublesome; Ye Bai's Truth Eye alone was enough to see through demons wearing human skin.

However, Jingmuhan's action provided Ye Bai with an excuse.

"Alright, everyone be careful."

Ye Bai summoned the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican.

The Heaven-Swallowing Pelican opened its large mouth and used its sharp beak to gently peck at Ye Bai's hand.

"Heaven-Swallowing Pelican, take me flying to that clock tower."

Ye Bai pointed at the distant clock tower and said to the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican.

In front of outsiders, the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican did not show its special abilities, but instead used its Zhua to grab Ye Bai's arms and took him away from there.

Tianzhong City Pet Beast Guild, president's office.

A black dagger was plunged into the president's chest, and he stopped breathing on the spot.

The perpetrator was none other than the president's secretary.

Only, two sharp horns had sprouted from the top of this secretary's head, and a pair of bat wings had appeared on her back.

Her tail was thin and long, yet very flexible.

At this moment, she took out a crimson lipstick and applied it to her lips.

"This old man's vigilance is just too poor."

"I've already eaten his secretary for nearly a week, and he still hasn't discovered my abnormality."

"And here I was, worried and fearful every day, thinking I had been exposed."

"Turns out this is all the level he's at."

"Should I just take this opportunity to slaughter everyone in the Pet Beast Guild?"

"After all, besides the president, no one is my match."

The Succubus laughed coldly; she looked at the president who died with his eyes wide open and laughed exceptionally happily.

"What a pity; if you had summoned a Pet Beast to protect you, I wouldn't have acted so quickly."

"In your next life, keep your eyes a bit sharper."

"Just at this moment, a slow and steady knocking sound came from outside the door."

"Is the president of the Tianzhong City Pet Beast Guild in?"

"I am one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions, Kuimulang."
