Chapter 1171: Demon King's Pupil

Hoo!

The enraged White-Pupil True Demon took a deep breath at this moment, and immediately a tremendous suction force erupted, directly tugging at Li Li Lingjing's cheek, attempting to draw it in as well to fuse and devour at the face position.

But the method that had been unstoppable before was no longer so smooth now.

After secretly devouring the third human face, Li Li Lingjing's cheek had clearly grown much stronger, which led to her resistance far exceeding that of the two faces previously devoured by the White-Pupil True Demon.

Li Li Lingjing's cheek trembled at the White-Pupil True Demon's chest, as if resisting that devouring force.

Seeing this, the White-Pupil True Demon's fury intensified. Such an unexpected turn was clearly beyond its expectations—these Blood Coffin people were clearly its sacrifices, so why were they disobeying now?

"Mere ants, even if you possess a touch of strangeness, do you truly believe you can devour what does not belong to you?"

A ghastly white light flowed within the White-Pupil True Demon's eyes, faintly releasing a supreme pressure, while a low, demonic-chant-like eerie sound emanated from its throat.

Under this eerie sound wave, Li Li Lingjing's opened ghostly eyes seemed to begin being eroded by something, her eyelids gradually closing.

As Li Li Lingjing's eyes closed, her cheek also began flowing upward along the White-Pupil True Demon's skin.

While subduing Li Li Lingjing's resistance within its body, the White-Pupil True Demon's ten pale fingers suddenly snapped off. The ten fingers swelled against the wind, standing like giant pillars in the void ahead.

The ten white giant pillars stood in perfect alignment, as if forming a cold, massive gateway.

And before the gateway, the two-headed giant dragon swept in carrying vast energy. The dragon opened its maw, and two torrents of dragon breath blasted forth.

One was jet-black as ink, like cold, dead water.

One was resplendent as silver, with Lei Ting flowing within.

Boom!

The two torrents of dragon breath blasted onto the gateway formed by the ten fingers, immediately leaving deep marks upon it, but this gateway was also extraordinary—cold, waxy oil continuously flowed out, filling those glaring craters.

But the "Twin Flags United" executed with Li Luo's current strength was clearly not so easily neutralized. Seeing the dragon breath fail, the two-headed giant dragon violently charged forward, its sharp dragon claws swinging, directly tearing streaks of dark-black marks across the void.

Boom, boom!

The dragon claws tore down viciously, and after a few rips, that massive gateway was forcibly torn apart, reduced to scattered fragments.

The two-headed giant dragon violently charged out through the broken gateway.

And Li Luo also saw what lay behind the gateway, and his pupils abruptly contracted.

He saw that Li Li Lingjing's cheek had already been controlled by the White-Pupil True Demon, then overlaid upon its own face. Immediately, its features writhed violently, as if devouring.

However, this devouring did not seem as smooth as before—amid the shifting features, traces belonging to Li Li Lingjing even faintly appeared.

But even so, Li Luo could still sense that the malevolent energy erupting from within the White-Pupil True Demon was skyrocketing at a terrifying rate.

Killing intent surged in Li Luo's eyes. This damned White-Pupil True Demon had actually begun devouring Cousin Li Lingjing. It seemed he had to slay it as soon as possible—only then might Li Li Lingjing have some chance of breaking free alive.

At this thought, Li Luo's hands abruptly came together, and mighty resonant power whistled out, pouring into the two-headed giant dragon ahead.

Roar!

The two-headed giant dragon immediately let out a roar. Within its maws, vast energy gathered, ultimately forming two dragon pearls roughly a foot in size.

One dragon pearl was jet-black as ink, within which seemed to flow a Heihe, emanating an extreme chilling aura.

The other was dazzlingly resplendent, with vast, violent Lei Ting rumbling within.

Like a water dragon pearl and a thunder dragon pearl.

The two-headed giant dragon's massive body rapidly faded at this moment, but those two dragon pearls grew increasingly mighty, the energy emanating from them truly alarming.

The next instant, the two-headed giant dragon's maws suddenly roared open, and the two dragon pearls transformed into streaks of light that shot forth violently, like two stars chasing each other, ruthlessly bombarding the distant White-Pupil True Demon.

The two destructive dragon pearls roaring toward it were reflected in the White-Pupil True Demon's pupils. Its face was still writhing continuously, and after several breaths, the writhing gradually stopped.

The corners of its mouth slowly curled into a cold, sinister smile.

Boom!

The two dragon pearls arrived with a thunderous crash. The next instant, a terrifying energy storm ravaged outward, directly sweeping the White-Pupil True Demon's body into it.

The entire world seemed to tremble beneath this energy thunder.

Many students could not help but change color—such a level of energy fluctuation would likely kill even an ordinary Second Rank Title Holder.

That White-Pupil True Demon should finally be slain, right?

The energy storm ravaged for quite a while before gradually subsiding.

All gazes immediately shot over, and they saw that the void still showed signs of shattering. The White-Pupil True Demon's body had dissipated, but a broken cheek remained floating in midair.

That broken cheek still wore a cold, eerie smile.

Countless white fragments drifted in midair.

Silence.

Everyone stared at the floating broken cheek without daring to breathe. The White-Pupil True Demon had been severely wounded?

But Li Luo did not show a relaxed expression. On the contrary, his gaze grew increasingly Solemn at this moment.

Because in his perception, the White-Pupil True Demon's aura still existed.

"Hehe."

The broken cheek let out an odd laugh: "Truly formidable. I had thought the situation was under easy control, yet I was forced to this step."

"I truly miscalculated somewhat."

The sky-filling white fragments writhed at this moment, then, under the horrified gazes of the crowd, transformed into humanoid figures, each one faceless.

Then these faceless figures walked toward the broken cheek and merged into it. Finally, the cheek began repairing at a terrifying speed, and in just a few breaths, another seemingly intact White-Pupil True Demon stood there.

Seeing this scene, many students could not help but feel a deep sense of helplessness. This true demon's vitality was terrifyingly tenacious—even after suffering such a devastating blow from Li Luo, it could still leap about lively.

Facing such an existence, even a true Second Rank Title Holder would likely be dragged into a wretched state.

"Your power should have already reached its limit, yes?"

"If this is all there is, then today, this skin of yours shall become my collection." The White-Pupil True Demon said with a smile.

After fighting to this point, both sides had played their trump cards one after another, but regrettably, it was still one step ahead.

As its voice fell, boundless, vast malevolent energy was seen sweeping out from within its body. The intensity of that fluctuation had already stepped into the realm of a Third Rank True Demon.

Clearly, that was because Li Luo's cheeks had also been devoured by it.

The many trainees, feeling that terrifying pressure, all showed despair in their eyes.

Jiang Jiang Qinge gripped her heavy sword, her golden gaze swirling with coldness; if Li Luo's side truly showed signs of collapse, then she would certainly step forward.

The White-Pupiled True Demon paid no heed to their despair, for its gaze was locked solely on Li Luo; in this battle, only the latter possessed the power to threaten it.

However, even Li Luo was likely already helpless at this moment.

The White-Pupiled True Demon chuckled lightly; in the next instant, everyone saw its body begin to dissolve at an astonishing speed, followed by white wax-like oil dripping down, each drop transforming into a mighty river flowing across the sky.

In a mere short moment, the White-Pupiled True Demon's entire body dissolved, leaving only a pair of white eyes floating quietly above the white ocean, appearing extremely eerie.

The white eyes turned, and then the white sea sweeping across the sky poured back, all of it drilling into that pair of eyes.

As the final drop of white wax liquid merged into the eyes, those white eyes seemed to gradually acquire a mysterious charm, an aura transcending heaven and earth, condensing and being born within them.

The energy of heaven and earth seemed to cease flowing at this moment.

Even Li Luo felt a surge of shock in his heart; that feeling was as if those eyes were connected to that Demon King of All Beings, and at this moment, that terrifying existence was truly directing its gaze toward him.

The Demon King's Eyes!

Merely a single glance nearly caused Li Luo's mind to collapse, forcing him to prostrate himself on the ground.

However, in the end, Li Luo resisted that erosion through his firm will; his eyes slowly closed. He had already sensed Jiang Jiang Qinge's gaze from her side; if he could not resist here, that stubborn girl would likely throw caution to the wind once again.

This was something Li Luo did not wish to witness under any circumstances.

So...

"Then let us try..."

"... whether your Demon King's Eyes possess greater oppressive power, or my... Peerless Embryo Art is superior." Li Luo whispered within his heart.

At that very same instant, boundless sword qi erupted from the crown of Li Luo's head, and an ancient, mighty sword array outlined its form in the sky above him.

By now, both sides had truly revealed their ultimate trump cards.

The peak slaughter of this recruitment mission must now reach its conclusion! "(Continuing to write via Douyin livestream at 10 AM tomorrow; everyone is welcome to supervise)"
