Chapter 114: Terrifying Evil Qi

"Ah—! I am going to kill you." After breaking free from the underground, Lu Ju howled crazily, wanting to kill Zhuge Tianxin.

"Let's begin." Zhuge Tianxin did not feel afraid because Lu Ju was crazily roaring about killing him; instead, he prepared to launch an attack on Lu Ju with the Yin-Yang Fire Fox.

*Ya—! * After the Yin-Yang Fire Fox let out a loud cry, the two tails composed of Yin and Yang fire behind it suddenly lengthened, driving the stone blocks condensed at their tips to smash toward Lu Ju like whip-hammers. The Yin-Yang Fire Fox responded to Zhuge Tianxin with action.

*Boom, boom. * The Yin-Yang Fire Fox's two attacks landed but did not hit Lu Ju. Lu Ju knew that Zhuge Tianxin had already discovered the weakness that he could not move while using the evil energy shield, so he had no need to continue using it; doing so would only result in being passively beaten. Therefore, upon seeing the two flaming stone balls from the Yin-Yang Fire Fox smashing toward him, he immediately withdrew the energy shield covered in evil Qi and retreated dozens of meters, dodging the Yin-Yang Fire Fox's attack.

*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—! * Lu Ju, who had just dodged the Yin-Yang Fire Fox's attack, had not yet managed to stand steady when he heard the *whoosh* sound of a stone club rubbing against the air. Subsequently, Lu Ju felt a massive pain in his waist. Finally, Lu Ju discovered that Zhuge Tianxin had already arrived behind him and had launched an attack.

*Boom. * Zhuge Tianxin slammed the jagged stone club heavily into Lu Ju's waist. Because the jagged stone club could not withstand such force, it shattered directly. Even the handle I held in Zhuge Tianxin's hand first developed a crack before finally splitting apart, which shows the magnitude of the force Zhuge Tianxin used this time.

*Boom. * Lu Ju was blasted away at high speed by Zhuge Tianxin, subsequently plunging into the Yin fire, and finally coming to a stop after hitting the ground and sinking into the earth.

"Hmm, not bad. You have begun to gradually master the second stage of the Demon Body. Your attack speed and strength have also greatly increased, to the point where even the evil-transformed Lu Ju cannot keep up with your speed. The power of that club just now has greatly exceeded the strength his evil-transformed body can withstand." In the mysterious space, Qing Xuan'er said this upon seeing Zhuge Tianxin blast Lu Ju away, leaving Lu Ju unable to react.

"Sigh—, it's a pity that it cannot be sustained. Am I destined to be a 'three-second man'?" Although it was rare for Qing Xuan'er to praise him, Zhuge Tianxin still felt very depressed. Ever since Zhuge Tianxin participated in the Hunter Assessment and finally awakened magic according to the methods in the Hunter Scroll, he had awakened four types of magic at once: Space, Chaos, Earth, and Demon Body. Among these four types of magic, Space magic allowed Zhuge Tianxin to establish space tunnels and move rapidly through them, which was space movement. Chaos magic allowed Zhuge Tianxin to control chaotic power, which also had many wonderful uses. As for Earth magic, it was the Giant Rock Fangs and Giant Rock Tiger Devour that Zhuge Tianxin had used when he wanted to stop Lu Ju's evil transformation, and it could also condense stone armor and other abilities; it was a magic type that could both attack and defend. Finally, there was the Demon Body mentioned by Qing Xuan'er. The Demon Body was actually also a type of magic, but this type of magic was relatively special. Unlike most magic types that manipulate magic elements to form attacks and defenses, this type of magic directly applied magic to one's own body. After using the Demon Body, various capabilities of the body would be greatly enhanced, allowing the user to exert several times their own strength. Zhuge Tianxin had used it before when dealing with the evil-transformed Ximen Guang; at that time, it was a first-stage Demon Body, which could completely crush the evil-transformed Ximen Guang. But at that time, Ximen Guang was Rank 5, while the current Lu Ju was Rank 7. The first-stage Demon Body could no longer defeat Lu Ju, so Zhuge Tianxin could only use the second-stage Demon Body. It was just a pity that what depressed Zhuge Tianxin was that the second-stage Demon Body would greatly consume his physical strength, and he could not sustain the second-stage Demon Body at all. Zhuge Tianxin had encountered the same problem as when he fought the Bloodthirsty Howling Wolf King in the Hunter Selection grounds—he couldn't sustain it. As a man, he couldn't sustain himself every time he unleashed a big move; how could Zhuge Tianxin not be depressed?

"Ah—, forget it. Let's finish off Lu Ju first." Although Zhuge Tianxin was very depressed about not being able to sustain it, he knew he had to finish off Lu Ju first.

After Lu Ju was blasted away by Zhuge Tianxin, he sank deep into the ground, which made Lu Ju even more furious.

*Boom, boom, boom—! * Like a volcanic eruption, Lu Ju, who had been blasted deep into the ground by Zhuge Tianxin's attack, did not break free immediately. Instead, he launched an attack from underground. A large amount of evil Qi material gathered on Lu Ju's right hand and was then shot toward the sky. After these evil Qi materials were shot into the air, they exploded with a *bang*, forming a large number of evil Qi material energy balls. Like self-navigating projectiles, they split into two parts and flew toward Zhuge Tianxin and the Yin-Yang Fire Fox respectively.

*Roar—! * The evil Qi material energy balls flying toward Zhuge Tianxin changed continuously during their flight, finally turning into individual beast-shaped or human-shaped skulls, roaring as if they wanted to devour Zhuge Tianxin.

"Order Transformation." Seeing those evil Qi material energy balls that had turned into skulls roaring as they flew toward him, Zhuge Tianxin did not panic. Instead, he activated the Chaos-element magic within his body and launched the Chaos-type magic, Order Transformation, changing the order within his range, causing all the evil Qi material that was originally flying toward him to fly in the opposite direction, easily resolving this attack.

Compared to Zhuge Tianxin's easy handling, the Yin-Yang Fire Fox was not so relaxed; it could even be said to be very tragic. As the evil Qi material energy balls flew toward the Yin-Yang Fire Fox, the fox was relatively large and not easy to dodge. Furthermore, the evil Qi material energy balls had also turned into beast-shaped or human-shaped skulls. These skulls roared at the Yin-Yang Fire Fox, and upon hearing these roars, the Yin-Yang Fire Fox seemed to have its mind taken away. Instead of defending, it actively collided with the evil Qi material energy balls.

*Boom, boom, boom—! Ya—! * The evil Qi material energy balls exploded violently, leaving the Yin-Yang Fire Fox covered in wounds. And this was not the end; it could even be said that this was just the beginning. After the evil Qi material energy balls exploded, a large amount of energy material was produced and quickly attached to the Yin-Yang Fire Fox's body. Then, like maggots on a bone, they gnawed at the Yin-Yang fire on the Yin-Yang Fire Fox's body, as if a pack of hungry wolves had encountered food. After the explosion, the Yin-Yang Fire Fox had regained its senses due to the pain from its injuries. At this time, some of the evil Qi material had already passed through the Yin-Yang fire on the outside of the Yin-Yang Fire Fox and was gnawing at the true body formed by the fusion of the Yin Beast and Yang Beast.

*Ya—! * The Yin-Yang Fire Fox screamed in pain, as if being gnawed by ten thousand demon beasts.

*Boom. * With an explosion, an explosion occurred on the Yin-Yang Fire Fox's body. The Yin-Yang fire infected by the evil Qi material was sprayed outward by the power of the explosion, causing those evil Qi materials to also be sprayed out along with the Yin-Yang fire. Although the Yin-Yang Fire Fox was in pain from seeing those evil Qi materials continuously gnawing, it saw that the Yin-Yang fire on its body was continuously being devoured by the evil Qi material, and those evil Qi materials seemed to use the Yin-Yang fire as nourishment to continuously strengthen themselves. Looking at the increasing number of evil Qi materials surrounding it, the Yin-Yang Fire Fox had no choice but to abandon all the Yin-Yang fire in the parts of its body that were already surrounded by evil Qi material.

*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—! * After the Yin-Yang Fire Fox got rid of the gnawing of the evil Qi material, it panted heavily, as if it had experienced a great battle.

*Ya—! * But the Yin-Yang Fire Fox, which had just gotten rid of the evil Qi material, had not yet caught its breath when it suddenly screamed in pain. It was very painful, and the sound made anyone who heard it feel a tingling sensation in their scalp, because those evil Qi materials that it had sprayed out using the power of the Yin-Yang fire explosion had already attached themselves to its body again at some point, and were already gnawing at its body. ===== CHAPTER 115 =====
