Chapter 178

It actually had three heads!

The six eyes on the three heads were now staring tightly at the spiritual fruit in Xiao's hand, their gaze filled with violent killing intent.

Its aura surged, and after sensing it, Zhongli's heart sank.

This thing...

Early stage of Qi Refining into Spirit!

It could be considered a Great Demon.

This was the first time everyone had seen a real demonic beast, and it was directly a Great Demon of Qi Refining into Spirit.

They couldn't help but feel a bit heavy-hearted.

"Damn it! We were careless! We should have used divine sense to explore just now!"

Ningguang blamed herself and clenched her fists.

The demonic aura of the Qi Refining into Spirit demonic beast pressed down overwhelmingly.

If it weren't for Zhongli and the others blocking it, they probably wouldn't have had any power to fight back.

"Now is not the time for self-reproach."

Alice said in a low voice.

"Hide behind me; it's only in the early stage of Qi Refining into Spirit, Zhongli and Venti can handle it."

The demonic beast swept its gaze toward Zhongli and Venti, its eyes showing some wariness.

But soon, it was filled with hatred again.

It stared tightly at the flying sword beside Venti.

"Sword Control Art..."

"Good! Very good!"

"After several hundred years, you bunch of insidious villains actually dare to enter the Nine Nether!"

"And you dare to steal my spiritual fruit!"

"Damn Shushan disciples, do you really think we are afraid of you!"

"Just three late-stage Qi Refining into Spirit cultivators, yet you dare to bring so many Qi Refining into Essence cultivators into the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range!"

"Shushan is all a bunch of arrogant and conceited guys!"

"Forget it! It's been a long time since I tasted Shushan cultivators; today, I'll use you to whet my appetite!"

Hearing this demonic beast belittle Shushan so much, everyone was immediately filled with righteous indignation.

Xiao drew his weapon and looked at the demonic beast with killing intent.

"Calm down! The opponent is a Qi Refining into Spirit Great Demon; you can't handle it!"

Alice blocked Xiao, her gaze fixed gloomily on the demonic beast.

Zhongli said slowly:

"It seems you beast have eaten Shushan disciples before; in that case, you can't be left alive!"

The Great Demon looked at Zhongli with some wariness.

The others were easy to deal with, but these three late-stage Qi Refining into Spirit cultivators, it really didn't dare to attack.

Otherwise, why would there be so much nonsense?

Right now, it was merely waiting for reinforcements.

"What are you, to dare to speak to me like that?"

"I am a personal guard under the Snow Hou Throne; I was following the Snow Hou Throne to slaughter your Shushan disciples back then, you weren't even born yet!"

"Which branch of Shushan disciples are you from!"

Zhongli swung his long spear and said coldly:

"Shushan Dragon Head Peak! Zhongli!"

He didn't say he was the Acting First Seat; he was away from home, and in the Nine Nether Secret Realm at that.

Saying he was the Acting First Seat with the cultivation of a late-stage Qi Refining into Spirit would truly lose face for Shushan.

But the Great Demon's eyes widened instantly.

"Dragon Head Peak!!!"

"Damn it! Damn thing!"

"What are you to that old dog Mo Yixi!"

Zhongli's sword-like brows knit together, and killing intent soared to the sky.

"How dare a mere beast insult my master! Die!"

The Spear of Rainbow Piercing stabbed out instantly, and the Great Demon was startled, subconsciously using its innate divine ability to turn into a streak of light and dodge.

At this moment, it immediately realized something was wrong.

It looked at Zhongli with a mocking gaze.

"Mo Yixi took in a disciple like you? It seems he's getting worse as he ages!"

"You haven't even mastered the Sword Control Art, yet you dare to come to my Nine Nether Secret Realm?"

"Hahaha! You will definitely die today! Killing you counts as cutting off a piece of that old dog Mo Yixi!"

Zhongli was even more furious, wielding the Spear of Rainbow Piercing to pursue it continuously.

But he wasn't proficient in the Sword Control Art after all, and although the demonic beast's strength was lower than his, it possessed a genuine speed-based innate divine ability.

It could barely dodge, but it still couldn't avoid getting injured.

But even so, the Great Demon didn't flee, nor did it counterattack; it just kept saying mocking words to Zhongli while dodging back and forth.

It looked like it was playing around.

Zhongli could hardly resist unleashing the Clear Origin Divine Method Manifestation Mantra.

Alice suddenly frowned and shouted:

"Venti! Attack together! This guy is stalling for time!"

"What?! Damn it!"

Venti was shocked, and not caring about giving Zhongli a chance to hone his combat skills, he immediately rushed up and attacked with all his might.

110. Venti: If a demonic beast in the cultivation world can't win, it plays self-detonation? Insidious!

Venti's Sword Control Art was more refined compared to Zhongli's.

After all, he practiced the Wine God Art, which also contained some of Mo Yixi's insights into sword control.

This strike instantly pierced the Great Demon's wing, and the opponent's speed was greatly reduced.

Looking at this familiar sword intent, the Great Demon suddenly remembered the sword intent that shattered the world and sealed everything back then.

"Damn it! Damn it! It's Mo Yixi again!"

"Wine God Art! Damn thing! What are you to Mo Yixi again!"

The Great Demon already had the intention to retreat at this moment.

"None of your business! Die!"

This was the first time Venti had been so angry, saying a dirty word for the first time in his life.

Although the Great Demon was fast, it was only in the early stage of Qi Refining into Spirit; how could it handle two serious late-stage Qi Refining into Spirit powerhouses?

Before long, it was covered in wounds, a pair of wings were cut off, and its claws had also been severed.

Two of its three heads were also nowhere to be found.

Seeing that it couldn't survive, it simply stopped dodging.

It looked at Zhongli and Venti with hatred.

"Damn Shushan disciples! Damn Mo Yixi!"

"Back then you slaughtered many of my kin, destroyed my world, and made us serve as trials for Shushan disciples, and now you dare to come again!"

"Do you really think we are afraid of you!"

"Just you wait! I have already sent a message to the King; when the King arrives, he will definitely crush you all! And use your corpses to drink!"

"I will wait for you on the road to the Yellow Springs!"

Zhongli stared at the Great Demon with a cold face and said coldly:

"You won't have the chance!"

Just as he was preparing to act quickly to solve the trouble and escape.

Ningguang frowned slightly, and suddenly, as if remembering something, she hurriedly said:
