Chapter 1314: Fourth Rank True Demon

Boom!

When the rolling miasma of malevolent thoughts surged in from the surrounding streets, Li Fuluo charged out at the forefront, four towering marquis platforms suspended above his head. The marquis divine smoke swept down, and within it molten lava actually flowed, radiating a terrifying temperature.

Li Fuluo possessed an Upper Eighth Grade Lava Phase, so naturally his marquis divine smoke also carried an overbearing, scorching quality, brimming with destructive force.

The marquis divine smoke surged forth like lava, engulfing the many aberrations and tearing open a passage ahead in an instant.

However, the malevolent aura within this medium-sized Ghostly Domain was simply too dense, and the number of aberrations within was also extremely alarming. Countless grotesque and hideous aberrations came in wave after wave, and under this onslaught, even Li Fuluo, a powerhouse at the Upper Fourth Grade Marquis Realm, found his forward momentum somewhat impeded.

But after all, Li Fuluo was not fighting alone.

The next instant, dazzling light-phase power rose like a blazing sun, brilliant holy light pouring forth, directly purifying the malevolent aura rushing in from all directions. The aberrations within, bathed in the light-phase power, shrieked and dissolved into green smoke.

That was Jiang Jiang Qinge making her move.

The light-phase power condensed from her three Ninth Grade Light Phases was truly overbearing; that purifying force was simply too lethal against this malevolent aura and these aberrations. Thus wherever the light-phase power swept, a vast vacuum zone appeared ahead.

With Jiang Jiang Qinge's intervention, the burden on Li Fuluo to break the path was greatly eased. The two working together rapidly tore through the malevolent tide ahead, advancing steadily.

Meanwhile, Li Luo, Li Hongyou, and the other team members stayed in the rear, mopping up any stragglers that slipped through.

Because most of the pressure was on Li Fuluo and Jiang Jiang Qinge's side, Li Luo still had leisure to lift his head and look around. As far as his gaze could reach, the city seemed boundless, with no end in sight—only rolling malevolent aura filling his field of vision.

Within it, countless grotesque, twisted aberrations stirred restlessly, no one knew how many.

Compared to this place, the small Ghostly Domains they had encountered before were truly nothing.

As for the other squads that had entered the Ghostly Domain with them, their traces had vanished—presumably scattered apart. That was actually a good thing, since staying with other squads meant not only facing all manner of bizarre attacks from aberrations, but also guarding against the greed that might arise in those people.

After all, in a region this thick with malevolent aura, those with weak wills would have their negative emotions amplified endlessly, ultimately doing things that went against reason.

Li Luo gazed into the depths of the Ghostly Domain. He could sense that in those directions there existed some extremely powerful malevolent fluctuations—those must be the strongest True Demon aberrations within this Ghostly Domain.

The reason this Ghostly Domain could exist was precisely because of these True Demon aberrations.

"This kind of malevolent fluctuation—it's probably a Fourth Rank True Demon!" Li Luo's gaze flickered. Within a medium-sized Ghostly Domain, Fourth Rank True Demons were not uncommon, and in some even larger medium-sized Ghostly Domains, there might well be existences surpassing Fourth Rank.

But looking at it this way, a medium-sized Ghostly Domain really wasn't something a single squad could handle. At the very least, Li Fuluo alone probably couldn't withstand several Fourth Rank True Demons attacking together.

"Senior Sister Hongyou, which direction is the Upper Grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Treasure?" Li Luo asked.

Within this Ghostly Domain, there were no fewer than three Fourth Rank True Demons, clearly distributed in different regions. Yet the Upper Grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Treasures they coveted—who knew where exactly they were. At this moment, Li Hongyou's guidance became critically important.

Li Hongyou delicately sniffed, picking out from the pervasive malevolent aura a faint exotic fragrance that ordinary people could hardly detect. Finally, she extended a slender finger and pointed in one direction.

"Over there. Two Upper Grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Treasures are both there."

Upon hearing this, Li Fuluo's spirits immediately lifted. He then clenched his large hand, and a dark-red heavy halberd appeared in his grasp. Scorching fluctuations spread out, even causing the void to twist somewhat.

"Move!"

With a long cry, he brought the heavy halberd crashing down. Crimson light erupted, and the spear radiance transformed into a torrent of lava-flowing flame dragons that roared forth, directly smashing apart a True Demon-class aberration that lunged at them from the malevolent fog ahead.

The shattered True Demon was still writhing, but the scorching lava clinging to it swiftly melted it away, severing all vitality.

The group charged forward at full speed like wolves and tigers, clearing the aberrations that surged up along the way as easily as cutting grass. Especially with Jiang Jiang Qinge present, her exquisitely pure light-phase power splashed out, and wherever it passed, even the malevolent aura was wiped clean.

Pushing through like this, in the blink of an eye half a day had passed.

"We're almost there!" Li Hongyou called out. She could smell the exotic fragrance of the Upper Grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Treasures growing stronger and stronger.

Everyone was delighted to hear it.

"Careful!"

But just then, Jiang Jiang Qinge's bright eyes suddenly sharpened and she called out softly.

The very instant Jiang Jiang Qinge spoke, the malevolent fog ahead was suddenly torn apart. A pale-white streak of light ripped through the void, carrying an extremely chilling aura as it shot violently toward the group.

Li Luo narrowed his eyes, barely able to make out that within the pale-white rainbow light, there seemed to be a pale-white finger about a foot long.

Yet at this moment, that pale-white finger radiated an extremely terrifying fluctuation.

An ordinary Third Rank Marquis-level powerhouse facing this kind of killing strike would almost certainly die without question.

Fortunately, Li Fuluo was always on guard, so he acted decisively at this moment. The heavy halberd left his hand like a crimson dragon roaring, colliding with the pale-white finger.

Boom!

Astounding energy fluctuations ravaged outward, leveling the street beneath their feet and the nearby buildings completely.

And that pale-white finger was shredded to pieces by the halberd's spear radiance.

Li Fuluo reached out a hand, and the heavy halberd flew back into his grasp. He raised the halberd tip and pointed with a solemn expression toward the violently churning malevolent aura ahead.

"Careful. The Fourth Rank True Demon guarding this place is coming," he warned in a deep voice.

The others also revealed wariness in their eyes, looking ahead, and saw the churning malevolent aura there begin to contract, finally condensing entirely into one spot.

The view ahead became clear.

Li Luo looked and saw, atop a mottled tower at the end of the street, a figure standing there.

That figure, in outward form, was an extremely tall woman—she seemed to be several zhang tall. Her skin was very white, but it wasn't the snowy white full of vitality; rather, it was a cold, ghastly pale white. Only scraps of clothing covered her vital areas. Her legs were unusually straight and long, and her figure appeared exceedingly voluptuous.

Her cheeks were charming and lovely, except at the top of her head, where two white strange horns had grown.

Looking closely, those white strange horns were actually stitched together section by section from numerous pale-white fingers, and in the end the many fingers bloomed at the top like a lotus.

Li Luo's gaze suddenly froze at the top of those strange horns, because he saw that there, two segments of emerald-green branches had grown.

Those two segments of emerald-green branches were extraordinarily mysterious, covered in countless light patterns inscribed upon them, inhaling and exhaling the energies of heaven and earth.

These emerald-green branches were unmistakably the Upper Grade Foundation Establishment Spiritual Treasures they had been longing for!
