Chapter 182: The Green-Faced Lion Demon Brothers

"..."

Moments later, Shen Yi's eyebrows slowly furrowed.

He seemed to have figured out why this situation had arisen.

For a creature condensed from the essence of heaven and earth, the process of gaining consciousness is extremely slow... but the time he had consumed was truly too much, causing it to develop awareness while still in the Dao Seed stage.

In fact, he had performed the act of erasing a creature's consciousness many times within the panel.

But previously, he had relied on the intent of death gained from cultivating the Life-and-Death Zen Body, and what he erased was also the consciousness of demons and monsters.

Now the situation had changed.

Because this Dao Seed was inside his own inner elixir, he could not first use the intent of death to destroy the inner elixir.

"Fortunately, there is the Sun-Melting Treasure Furnace."

Shen Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, mobilizing the suppressing power to tightly envelop it.

As long as he could control it, it would be fine; after all, it could not resist, and he could grind it to death simply by relying on time.

The several thousand years spent deducing the Wind-Thunder Sun-Melting Classic were, one must say, worth every bit.

Of course, he could only help up to this point; the remaining matters would have to trouble the panel to handle.

Thinking of this, Shen Yi rose again, saying faintly in his heart: "Rest assured, I will earn enough demon lifespan for you."

He raised his head and looked forward.

Two wisp-like auras drilled out from the silver bell, jumping more violently.

In the next moment, the black shirt fluttered lightly, and the youth once again transformed into a clear wind, sweeping across the long sky.

Fuyao Mountain, Bishui Stream.

The stream water was very shallow, revealing smooth pebbles; a mighty green-faced lion lay coiled in the water, and upon its back sat a towering figure draped in silver scales. Though human in form, it too topped a lion's head.

"Big Brother, can you stop riding me?" The giant lion seemed somewhat annoyed, shaking its tail vigorously.

"I would like to ride Lady Bai Yu, but she hasn't returned for several days." The human-shaped lion demon smiled playfully, and a low, muffled laugh came from beneath him as well.

The two brothers looked toward Outside Qingzhou with a touch of nostalgia.

"I don't understand why the Demon King wants us to provoke this You Long Tao. He guards Tingyang Commandery, wields the Sky-Dimming Sun-Setting Bow, and is a cultivator who has condensed a Yin Spirit. He looks rigid, but he is actually no fool."

The giant lion propped itself up, slightly dissatisfied: "Relying on just a single golden bell to lure him out, isn't that a bit naive?"

"If he doesn't come out, that's good; if he doesn't come out, we'll just keep riding Lady Bai Yu."

The human-shaped lion demon laughed with a split mouth, licking his lips again: "She wants to do something to regain the Demon King's attention, but what does that have to do with us?"

"I heard Bai Lu is dead." The giant lion walked toward the shore.

"Always thinking oneself clever, refusing to let us suppress it, secretly colluding with the Little Demon King; it deserved to die." The lion demon did not seem to care much about the matter.

Although they both served under the Howling Moon Demon King, the relationship between them was by no means good; indeed, if not for the Demon King's sake, hundreds of years ago, he would have wanted to kill the other directly at a banquet.

"I didn't mean that."

The giant lion shook his head: "If someone in Outside Qingzhou can kill Bai Lu, then he can kill more Demon Lords; naturally, you and I brothers need not worry, but if the loss is too great, it will inevitably free up the people of the Zhen Mo Si, and then being watched by them every day would not sit well in the heart."

"You worrying about this idle matter." The lion demon sneered: "How could the Demon King watch that stupid deer die in vain? Outside Qingzhou must repay with a life. As far as I know, the old water dragon of Yangchun River is about to break through; the Demon King has already sent someone to deliver a treasure pill to it, to give it a final boost."

Settling for a thousand years, emerging in one moment.

It must be to make Outside Qingzhou smell the scent of blood.

"Then won't the two of us have to move down one spot again?" The giant lion was somewhat annoyed; among the seventeen Dao Seed Demon Lords under the Demon King, the two of them combined should clearly enter the top five, but that group of beasts insisted on counting the two brothers separately, acting so shamelessly!

"I am not Bai Lu; I don't care about such things. I just want to know when Lady Bai Yu will return."

The lion demon jumped down from his brother, feeling somewhat troubled and restless.

Just then, a graceful figure with disheveled clothes walked along the stream, obviously having suffered heavily; her magnificent long dress was torn everywhere, snow-white skin peeked through, and on her pretty face, her expression was aggrieved as she lightly bit her full lips.

The lion demon's eyes went straight: "What has happened to Lady Bai Yu! Come quickly so this Lord can properly cherish you!"

It walked quickly forward, grabbed the beauty into its arms, and placed its large, unscrupulous beast paw upon her.

"..."

The giant lion looked on in confusion, feeling strangely surprised in his heart.

It was not because of his elder brother's lustful appearance; mainly, this time the other party had not even called him.

Could it be that he had held back for too many days?

At such times, it always had to serve as a fur soft couch; otherwise, wouldn't the two of them have to sleep on the ground?

Moreover, with Lady Bai Yu in such an injured state, how could his elder brother have not a shred of caution? At the very least, he should ask clearly what happened first.

It looked toward the surroundings and suddenly noticed a faint wisp of white mist.

In this stream, it did not seem abrupt, but rather very harmonious.

The giant lion's heart suddenly sank, and he roared: "Big Brother, be careful! Bai Lu is not dead! She must have defected to the Little Demon King and come to harm us brothers!"

The instant his words left his mouth.

The sounds of dragon roars and tiger howls exploded beside his ears; the giant lion turned back in horror, only to see a huge sword shadow suddenly appear before his eyes, carrying two fierce beasts and crashing toward him!

Under such ferocious true intent techniques.

Its huge body was instantly torn open by a terrifying gash, then blasted away by the dragon and tiger phantom images!

At the same time, Shen Yi, suspended in the air, held the Sky-Dimming Sun-Breaking Divine Bow, drew the bow like a full moon, and his eyes flashed with sharp light, like a flying general patrolling the heavens!

Under the enhancement of the Sixth Transformation of Immortal Demons, streams of scorching Bai Mang arrows successively pierced the sky.

Boom! Boom!

Vast Bai Guang covered the giant lion, and its solid demon body instantly had its skin split and flesh torn!

Firing more than ten arrows in succession, none missed; yet that lion had only been scraped by the Bai Mang, exposing its bone-white skeleton, clearly still breathing.

Shen Yi furrowed his brows slightly, not satisfied with this result.

But since breaking through to the Embracing Elixir Realm, the original Turtle Breathing Technique could no longer fully conceal his aura; getting any closer risked discovery.

He could only choose to use the Two Yin-Yang Dragon-Tiger True Intent and the Sky-Piercing Sun Divine Bow.

Meanwhile.

The lion demon in human form clutched Lady Bai Yu, his eyes filled with struggle.

Clearly, he was trying to break free from the illusionary realm.

In an instant, he bared his fangs with a roar that shook mountains and rivers; his terrifying eyes gained a touch more clarity.

"..."

Shen Yi ignored it and vanished from his spot in an instant.

According to General You, these two demons, working together, were no weaker than him.

They likely had some coordinated technique.

If one of them couldn't be eliminated beforehand, the difficulty of slaying them might double.
