Chapter 199: 198 Heavenly Demon True Form, Yin‑Extreme Divine Body

Without any hesitation, after informing the Long sisters about the interior of the spaceship ahead, Wang Wu immediately activated Mirror‑Flower Water‑Moon and slammed into it.

Chai Zhi was not in the cockpit at this moment; because her skin was much thinner than theirs, she had retreated to her own room early. However, after Wang Wu left, she soon received the Long sisters' notice as well.

"So, sis, what should we do?"

When Wang Wu vanished, the quick‑witted younger sister Long He looked at her elder sister and asked, "Should we go help Xiao Wu?"

"Nonsense! What are you standing around for!" Long Qing glared at her sister, "Hurry…"

"No need."

But at that moment, a cold voice cut Long Qing off; her body jolted, and she immediately looked toward the voice's owner.

"Ignore him; let him join this battle. One who only cultivates without real combat cannot become a master," Yin Shenli, arms crossed, appeared in the cockpit, looking down at the two women from above.

Although Yin Shenli was only slightly taller than her sister Long He, she could float in the air, so she could naturally look down on the taller Long Qing.

"B-but if Xiao Wu encounters any danger…"

"With me here, what are you worried about?" Yin Shenli stared at the other, asking.

"Uhm, this… um…"

"If you want to boost his favor, there are plenty of chances; let's skip it this time," Yin Shenli continued, looking at the terrified Long Qing. While Wang Wu was absent, her attitude toward the two demonesses was actually tolerable.

Given her own temperament, that was already a rather friendly attitude.

"Ha ha, you beasts, don't you love to eat? Why aren't you eating? Huh? Eat? Eat!!!"

Inside the ship, the cultivator surnamed Hu laughed heartily, shoving the fragments in his hand into another demon's mouth; the group originally numbered four, but now only two remained.

Two males and two females, except the two males have now become shredded meat in Cultivator Hu's hands.

Back then, Cultivator Hu's beloved junior sister had encountered a demon from the Jie Kingdom while on a training expedition, and was brutally killed, being devoured alive.

This was the report the surviving cultivator brought back to the sect; Cultivator Hu had seen the footage the survivor brought, and since then his heart had become completely dead.

Demons, of course, eat humans, and the demons in this star system are no different. The demons of the Wind Nation don't eat humans only because their home planet never had the human species; the entire system is populated by demons and demon beasts.

In the ancient era, the demon races had not yet unified; the demons here also used to devour each other.

Now the Wind Nation is highly developed and naturally no longer like its primitive past. As for demons eating humans, they simply don't do it, but they have no particular opinion on the matter.

It is a self‑evident matter, even from the human perspective. After all, what's abnormal about beasts eating people?

However, self‑evidence doesn't mean it is acceptable, just as man‑eating beasts are hunted as 'pests.'

For those whose beloved family members were killed by demons, it is only natural to kill and torment any demon they encounter.

Whether they are man‑eating evil demons is irrelevant.

Demons kill humans, humans kill demons; this is a self‑evident truth, a natural law.

Qing Jun watched the blood‑flesh that Cultivator Hu kept shoving toward her mouth; she showed no expression, merely staring blankly at him.

Even though one eye had been gouged out, the dark socket still seemed to hold a gaze.

"Heh, what's the use of looking at me?"

Cultivator Hu, of course, also noticed Qing Jun's stare; the cruelty on his face deepened. "Is he your lover? Or your relative? I heard you bird‑demons value emotions most; you should be able to feel the same pain as me, right?"

"Ha ha? Eat? Why aren't you eating?"

"Don't you demons love to eat your own kind? Even though the law punishes violators severely, it still keeps happening, doesn't it?"

"Eat, eat!!!"

Cultivator Hu roared, and seeing Qing Jun refuse to speak, he began repeatedly hurling the blood‑flesh at her face. He seemed to possess immense strength; each strike caused Qing Jun's face to sink a few more degrees.

Obviously, if this continued, her skull would be completely smashed in no time.

At that moment, Cultivator Hu raised his hand high, and a golden pillar of light shot out from behind him, aimed straight at his forehead.

He didn't dodge—whether out of being too slow or sheer indifference, either way the move caused him no damage.

And when the beam hit, Cultivator Hu's hand slammed down again forcefully.

"Heh, reinforcements arriving?"

"You can't save her!!!!"

Cultivator Hu roared, the light in his hand blazing, pouring all his strength to smash the skull of Qing Jun on the ground.

Splat

One punch landed, flesh and bone splattered, and the demon body below instantly turned into mush.

But after that punch, the cruelty and smugness on Cultivator Hu's face vanished in an instant.

"Sorry about that."

Directly in front of him, Wang Wu held a skull in his left hand and a half‑torso of a demon in his right, saying to the two demonesses:

"To save both of your lives, I have no choice but this plan."

Having said that, he tossed the two demonesses' remains behind him.

"Are you human?"

Cultivator Hu lifted his head, rose from the ground, his blood‑shot eyes fixed on Wang Wu, and forced the words out between his teeth, each syllable halting.

"I guess so."

Wang Wu nodded, saying, "Buddy, show some mercy where you can; these two probably aren't the demons that ate any of your beloved relatives, right? Even if you have to kill them, do it with gusto."

Wang Wu thought his previously assigned 'Pure Heavenly Demon' title still didn't fit; after all, his body had been locally adapted for this world. So he wasn't truly a Pure Heavenly Demon, but rather a Half‑Heavenly Demon.

Half‑demon, half‑human.

"You traitor…"

Facing Wang Wu's persuasion, Cultivator Hu had no intention of listening, still staring intently at Wang Wu, and said:

"You betrayed our human race, defected to these beasts' nation, you…"

"Must be killed!!"

When the words left his mouth, Cultivator Hu had already lunged forward; his speed was so fast Wang Wu couldn't even react. He was a powerful practitioner nearly at the third rank, ah no, a cultivator.

It can be said that, attribute‑wise, this fellow is probably a complete self‑advancement.

At least it is a comprehensive self‑advancement when he is in his normal state.

Killing monsters and humans killing monsters are, of course, natural, and Wang Wu acknowledges that. But just as humans hunt beasts that eat people, Wang Wu, being a monster himself, certainly sides with the demon race.

He supports human‑monster equality and peaceful coexistence, but if a situation arises where humans intend to kill monsters and the handling seems unreasonable to him, he will of course intervene.

And if the handling is justified—such as revenge—then it depends on the fate of his own kin.

But the actions of these two monsters clearly are not revenge, because when Wang Wu first came here he only observed for a while and did not immediately intervene to save the monsters.

His dearest junior sister was devoured alive by the demon race, which is indeed a heartbreaking event; it is naturally justified for him to kill any monster he sees.

However, Wang Wu is a monster himself, and these few are not the killers who ate his junior sister; moreover, Wang Wu sensed no "cannibalistic" aura on these two female monsters.

Therefore, as a fellow of the two monsters, Wang Wu certainly cannot stand by and let this happen.

As for whether this is reasonable, Wang Wu doesn't really care about reasonableness; he only needs to feel it is reasonable in his own heart.

In simple terms, if he wants to do something, he does it, without needing many reasons.

"Amitabha, benefactor, you are attached to form."

Barely evading the attack of the cultivator surnamed Hu, he allocated part of his attention to stare intently at that cultivator's two other companions. At the same time, Wang Wu did not forget to show off.

As for why he says Amitabha, the Extreme Heaven Vajra Sect still studies Buddhism; at the very least you must know a couple of Buddha names and have some understanding of the sutras.

What kind of understanding that is depends on the individual; after all, a thousand people each have a thousand… ha… uh, Qin Shi Huang—using a foreigner seems a bit inappropriate.

Wang Wu, of course, also has a very deep understanding of the sutras; he even chants Amitabha. Though the Buddha name seems something anyone can utter, Wang Wu truly grasps its deeper meaning.

The Buddha of Infinite Light, Sanskrit "amitābha"; the Buddha of Infinite Life, Sanskrit "amitāyu"; "ami" means "boundless", "endless", "infinite"…

The average person might not know these.

"Evil demons and heretics, shut up!! Come die for me!!!"

Facing Wang Wu's preaching, the cultivator surnamed Hu turned a deaf ear; such base words certainly do not disturb his mind, not even cause a brief pause.

What he does is reasonable and just; why would it be a crime?

"Heavenly Light Divine Sword, command!!"

The cultivator surnamed Hu originally intended, while attacking Wang Wu and the opponent was responding, to split off a Dharma Sword to strike the two demons he had rescued; but when the Dharma Sword was unleashed, he found the two female monsters had already vanished.

"Since that's the case, then you shall die!!!"

The Dharma Sword, traveling at a full 0.1 times the speed of light with unmatched power, thrust toward Wang Wu; this speed far exceeds Wang Wu's current limit and, under normal circumstances, is almost inescapable.

And this move indeed hit Wang Wu with perfect precision.

Wang Wu is human; when he does not appear in a "monster body," anyone would not recognize him as a monster.

Moreover, the lofty aura he exudes is completely antithetical to the innate power of monsters, fundamentally eliminating any possibility of him being of the demon race.

Absolutely impossible.

At that moment, when the Dharma Sword precisely struck Wang Wu's chest, instantly piercing his whole body, within the hole in Wang Wu's chest, Hu Yuan sensed an aura.

An extremely bizarre aura, like a abyss entering a prison…

The stench of death.

"Yuan Xiangzi, True Light Son! What are you still hesitating for??? Quickly slay this beast with me!!"

Although Hu Yuan was furious, the flames of vengeance burned him fiercely, but he did not lose his mind. When he realized something was off about Wang Wu, he immediately shouted to his two fellow sect members:

"Form the formation quickly, formation!!!"

After sensing the strange aura emanating from Wang Wu, Hu Yuan's assault also halted.

He did not know what the situation was, but as a battle‑hardened cultivator, he naturally knew that now was not the time for rash action.

He swiftly summoned his teammates to form a formation; undoubtedly, this is the best response in such circumstances.

"Ami… cough, cough, Amitabha."

Even though a large hole gaped in his chest, Wang Wu's face showed no sign of panic; he even had time to utter another "Amitabha."

Clusters of golden blood spurted from his mouth.

These blood pearls floated in the cosmos, glittering with golden light, yet upon close inspection one can see faint strands of black aura hidden within the golden gleam.

This black aura churned within the golden light, seeming to foreshadow something.

"Amitabha."

The Buddha name echoed repeatedly, the tone shifting from calm to compassionate; even the three cultivators who did not understand its meaning could clearly sense the underlying compassion.

However, within each compassionate Buddha chant, just like those golden blood pearls, there also lurked something extremely bizarre that completely contradicted their outward appearance.

Brutality, bloodshed, frenzy.

Completely opposite to the Buddha chant's resonance.

"Benefactor, benefactor…"

Wang Wu's body kept retreating, soon leaving the dilapidated spacecraft and moving back into the void behind.

He seemed to be fleeing, yet Hu Yuan did not pursue; his expression grew increasingly solemn.

Among the three cultivators, even the weakest male cultivator's strength was comparable to Wang Wu's—perhaps slightly weaker—but certainly not something Wang Wu could easily overcome.

At least in a normal state, it's impossible.

"Why suffer?"

"The sea of suffering is boundless; turning back is the shore, benefactor."

While Wang Wu kept retreating, the aura his body emitted…

Moreover, during his retreat, the energy contained in the surrounding cosmic space continuously surged into his body.

Bearing the inheritance of the Extreme Heaven Vajra Sect and the Yin Extreme Divine Sect—Heavenly Demon Vajra Body and Yin Extreme True Divine Body—both are forged from the universe's negative matter, and for Wang Wu, who cultivates the methods of these two evil sects, the universe is naturally harmonious with him.

The cosmic space, which is highly detrimental to humans and monsters, is, for Wang Wu, his best nourishment.

"Since that is so, let me guide the benefactor, and send the benefactor to the boundless blissful realm…"

When the words fell, Wang Wu's body vanished instantly.

But the next moment, before Hu Yuan could react, a massive form appeared before him.

Six wings, four arms, a pair of horns, a rhombic crystal on its forehead, and its body covered with a cold shell.

A pair of smooth, mirror‑like, icy red eyes met Hu Yuan's, and at that moment Hu Yuan felt an extreme sense of sorrow for the world.

But at the same time, it also harbored overwhelming cruelty and terror.

At this moment, Hu Yuan finally realized what the lingering feeling in his heart since earlier was.

Just as the monster said, he had already taken on the aspect.

'Demon Aspect.'

'Evil Demon... Evil Demon Heretic...'

Looking at Wang Wu now, how could Hu Yuan not know what this truly is?

'Benefactor.' At the same time, Wang Wu, now in the form of a Heavenly Demon, looked at Hu Yuan with gentle eyes and said softly:

'Then let me guide you across.'
