Chapter 107

Moonlight like water, intertwined with ten thousand qi and blood, forming a magnificent yet eerie silver-red canopy.

A shattered pearl, hanging high above Heishui City.

As the blood qi and moonlight surged in, the light grew ever more blazing, like a crimson blood moon, radiating thick, gloomy bloodlight.

After slaying Xue Chengkong, Qin Shuo leapt onto the city tower, gazing out to see mutant demon wolves crouched on his own rooftop, howling at the moon, sacrificing themselves—looking utterly bizarre.

"Your turn, old beast!"

Qin Shuo stomped his feet heavily, and the city tower beneath him collapsed with a thunderous crash.

He used the recoil force, like a golden dragon streaking across the vast sky, directly charging toward the shattered demon king's inner core.

"Kid, you dare!"

Standing eternally beneath the pearl, as the protector of the Ten Thousand Spirit Array, the Xiaoyue Demon King let out a deep, angry roar, bellowing as he slashed forth a silver-white moon blade over ten meters high, slicing the sky before Qin Shuo in half.

Clang!

The moon blade struck Qin Shuo's vajra body like a great mountain cleaving down, halting his forward momentum and cleaving him straight down from midair.

But that was all!

After refining the Longxiang Relic, Qin Shuo's Longxiang Golden Body underwent a qualitative transformation.

It was an indestructible vajra from within and without.

Even a moon blade strike comparable to the Condensing Truth Realm could not pierce its defense, only able to block its advance.

"Vajra Body, Great Longxiang Force!"

The Xiaoyue Demon King's facial skin twitched wildly, his pair of crimson vertical pupils suddenly constricting into narrow slits like a bloodline, radiating icy killing intent.

The vajra will emanating from the youth's body—supremely yang, supremely rigid, supremely great, supremely strong—like a blazing sun, made even its demon spirits feel danger.

This kind of magnificent, vast aura, it had only felt once before—on the body of that thieving bald donkey from Dalong Temple.

Back then, the opponent had used this very ability to shatter its matchless demon form, even smashing its demon core, injuring its soul.

It never expected that this youth before it would also master the same power as that thieving bald donkey, filling it with dread.

After all, within its demon king's body still lingered the vajra dharma mantra left by that thieving monk.

If this youth were to awaken it, the consequences would be unthinkable.

Thinking this through, the Xiaoyue Demon King let out a sharp wolf howl.

In the next moment, the thousands of Sky Wolf Gang members originally stationed in the outer city of Heishui City all transformed into mutant demon wolves, charging toward Qin Shuo's position.

For a time, the wolves howled, like ten thousand steeds galloping.

Moreover, within the inner city.

Wei Yuan, who had long been crouched on Qin Shuo's rooftop, sacrificing his own blood qi, also seemed to receive the summons, leaping down from the roof.

His speed far surpassed that of the other summoned mutant demon wolves, taking the lead as he charged at Qin Shuo.

Bang!

The great street trembled!

After the transformation, Wei Laotou's strength surged greatly.

Especially his physique, which was nearly comparable to a great demon of the Condensing Truth Realm; when he ran wildly, it sounded like war drums beating, and the blue stone beneath his feet shattered one after another.

Qin Shuo, who had just risen from the ruins, suddenly turned his head.

He saw at the end of the long street, air currents howling, a ferocious wolf demon rushing toward him at a speed so fast it was impossible to catch.

Its speed was too fast, far surpassing the other wolf packs by a great margin, its entire body surging with blood qi, like a blood-colored dragon tornado sweeping across.

"Wei Laotou?"

Qin Shuo's expression froze.

Although Wei Laotou at this moment had long since lost his original appearance, transformed into a ferocious evil wolf like the other wolf demons.

But Qin Shuo, having refined over a thousand Tianlang Blood Pills, had already attained a perception nearly akin to divine sense, able to discern a person's identity from the faintest scent.

Those Tianlang Blood Pills were all infused with the demon spirit of the Xiaoyue Demon King.

After Qin Shuo refined them, he gained the Tianlang power within.

His five senses and six perceptions thus greatly increased, now not inferior to a Tianlang great demon of the Condensing Truth Realm.

Under this divine sense's support, he could even hear the sound of blood flowing in his veins, let alone simple scent discrimination.

For wolves as creatures, their most acute sense is smell.

When hunting, they can even detect prey scents from several li away.

Know this: in mountain forests, scents are mixed and chaotic, yet wolves can precisely lock onto prey—their sense of smell is so terrifying it's hard to imagine.

And this is merely an ordinary wolf.

The Xiaoyue Tianlang is the king among wolves, and has evolved to a demon king realm comparable to a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

The Tianlang Divine Sense derived from its demon spirit is a hundred times sharper than that of an ordinary wolf.

So, let alone identifying the now-unrecognizable Wei Yuan, he could even smell what Wei Yuan ate for his afternoon tea—Rongji Osmanthus Cake.

"Roar!"

From a distance of a hundred zhang, Wei Yuan let out an extremely ferocious wolf howl.

The next second, he leapt from his spot, his sharp wolf claws flashing cold light in the moonlight, and in the simplest, most brutal way, lunged for Qin Shuo's neck.

Meanwhile, beneath the demon core.

The Xiaoyue Demon King stepped on moonlight, stood suspended in midair, and once again slashed at Qin Shuo with a silver-white moon blade over ten meters long.

The previous battle in the great street had taught it a lesson: it absolutely could not allow Qin Shuo to close in.

Therefore, it summoned the fully wolf-transformed Wei Yuan to engage Qin Shuo in close combat, while it itself used the moon blade for long-range attacks.

Clang!

The moon blade struck first, actually hitting Qin Shuo a step before Wei Yuan did, knocking his stance off balance.

Wei Yuan's wolf claws struck next, viciously grabbing at Qin Shuo's throat.

Screech!

Sparks flew everywhere!

The sharp wolf claws, like iron hooks, carved three terrifying gashes across Qin Shuo's body.

But soon, golden light flowed, and those gashes vanished instantly.

Wei Yuan still wanted to continue attacking, but Qin Shuo grabbed his two furry arms in one hand and let out a fierce long howl toward his head!

Roar!

A dragon-elephant roar mixed with Vajra will instantly exploded in Wei Yuan's mind.

The Tianlang remnant soul that had occupied Wei Yuan's mind instantly collapsed under this howl, turning into specks of silver light that fled from within Wei Yuan's body toward the direction of the Xiaoyue Demon King.

As the Demon King's remnant spirits dissipated, the wolf fur on Wei Yuan's body also fell away, revealing his true appearance.

However, that roar just now not only shattered the Xiaoyue Demon King's broken demonic spirit, but also stunned Wei Yuan's consciousness, his arms going limp as he collapsed straight down.

"Want to run?"

Seeing the scattered demon spirits trying to escape, Qin Shuo's furnace-like golden eyes burst forth with piercing divine light.

The next moment, he activated the Great Longxiang Force and let out another dragon-elephant roar toward the fleeing silver lights.

Roar!

A tremendous roar, earth-shattering, like muffled thunder exploding on the long street.

Empowered by the Great Longxiang Force, this dragon-elephant roar was not just a sound wave technique but also contained a powerful spiritual attack, completely shattering those demon spirit specks and dissipating them in midair.

"You dare destroy my demon spirits?!"

The Xiaoyue Demon King, cloaked entirely in black robes, had eyes nearly bursting out of their sockets.

He raised his hand, and the moonlight across the sky gathered in his palm, forming a silver moon disk, which he hurled violently at Qin Shuo.

Boom!

A massive explosion occurred on the long street.

The silver moon disk, like a small missile, blasted a several-meter-wide crater into the blue-stone-paved long street, heaven and earth shaking, rubble flying everywhere.

Wooo...

At the same time, over a thousand Sky Wolf Gang members transformed into demon wolves and charged like a beastly tide, fearless of death.

Boom!

Golden light exploded like a blazing sun, bursting forth.

Facing the Sky Wolf Gang's demon wolf army, Qin Shuo showed no mercy, like a humanoid tank, directly bulldozing forward.

These gang members were mostly ordinary people, but having aided evil and acted as tiger's wings, after becoming demon wolves, their physical quality improved slightly, yet they could not withstand Qin Shuo's unreasonable rampage.

Crack!

The wolf demon at the very front was directly flung away; the Longxiang Golden Body, empowered by the Four Symbols Power, was like a humanoid armored vehicle, and wherever it passed, flesh flew, tendons and meat scattered across the ground.

In just a few charges, over a thousand demon wolves were left scattered and broken; the primal fear began to suppress the Demon King's remnant spirits within them, and signs of breaking free from control appeared.

"Old beast, die!"

Qin Shuo did not continue entangling with these miscellaneous troops; he had to quickly resolve the Xiaoyue Demon King.

Otherwise, even if he ultimately killed the opponent, the ten thousand residents of Heishui City would die completely from excessive blood loss.

From Wei Laotou's situation, we can see.

The Xiaoyue demon spirits had only temporarily possessed them; once the Xiaoyue Demon King was completely dead, those demon spirits would also dissipate, and the crisis in Heishui City would thus be lifted.

Therefore, the urgent priority is to slay that old beast and stop the operation of the Ten Thousand Spirit Array.

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Qin Shuo, like a Primordial Savage Elephant, galloped down the long street, his heavy footsteps like heaven and earth beating drums, making the Xiaoyue Demon King's heart pound wildly.

Do not let him get close!

This is the Xiaoyue Demon King's only thought at this moment.

However, Qin Shuo, sprinting with all his strength, was so fast that he easily dodged one silver moon slash after another.

Finally, he charged all the way to the Xiaoyue Demon King's feet, leapt up suddenly, and grabbed toward that broken Demon King Inner Core.

"Don't even think about it!"

The Xiaoyue Demon King's eyes nearly burst from their sockets, his black robe exploded open, revealing a burly figure covered in silver wolf fur.

"Roar!"

It opened its mouth to let out a wolf howl, its bones making crackling friction sounds, and its already tall body suddenly grew taller.

The moonlight across the sky turned into silver armor, enveloping its entire body.

The ten fingers that originally belonged to humans instantly turned into iron hooks, like silver cast, cold and sharp, gripping a silver moon disk and smashing it hard toward Qin Shuo.

It knew Qin Shuo had the ability to instantly alter the surrounding force field.

So this time it learned its lesson, using moonlight to condense armor to strengthen its physical defense, then attacking with the silver moon disk, hoping to break through Qin Shuo's golden body defense.

Bang!

A low, muffled thud!

Golden and silver light intertwined, forming a terrifying explosion light ball in midair, raising visible circular shockwaves.

A civilian house was swept by the shockwave, instantly split into five pieces, walls collapsing, turning into ruins.

The Xiaoyue Demon King was flung backward, its silver armor shattered, smashing a human-shaped pit into the nearby city wall.

Its entire right arm was blown apart, flesh and blood flying everywhere.

At the site of its severed arm, golden Buddhist characters flickered in and out of light, like a mantra, tightly sealing its constantly wriggling and regenerating flesh, restricting its regenerative power.

"Vajra Dharma Mantra, you actually know the Vajra Dharma Mantra too!"

Xiaoyue Yaowang's eyes flickered with a trace of shock.

The Vajra Dharma Mantra is the bane of all demons and monsters, capable of restraining the regenerative power of demon kings.

And the source of the mantra is actually Vajra Buddha Nature, a force that is supremely rigid and yang, supremely pure and clean, capable of destroying all evil and corruption.

Qin Shuo's Great Longxiang Force is essentially an external manifestation of Vajra Buddha Nature.

Therefore, refining the Longxiang Relic requires first possessing Vajra Buddha Nature.

This divine ability not only contains immense force, but also resembles the blazing sun and moon, burning away all demons and evil.

Even the poison that Xue Chengkong had planted inside his body was transformed by this supremely pure and clean force, unable to take hold in the qi and blood generated within Qin Shuo's body.

"Die!"

As for this aberrant creature, Xiaoyue Yaowang, Qin Shuo had nothing more to say; he immediately activated his Great Longxiang Force to the fullest, transforming it into a golden arc of light that streaked straight toward it.

Rolling golden light coalesced into a golden dragon and elephant, crashing down together with the fist's leading edge.

Boom!

Xiaoyue Yaowang's head exploded like a shattered watermelon, blood spurting and brain matter flying in all directions.
