Chapter 419: A Fatal Blow: The Snow Soul Life-Saving Pill (Part 1, seeking votes)

Just as the Behemoth was forcibly repelled by the tree man controlled by Kailan, Adai suddenly scrambled up from the ground and lunged rapidly toward the Behemoth.

As for the massive wound on Adai's waist, it had already recovered by more than half at this moment.

Utilizing the ability of the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin, Cai Yangqian could naturally "see" the scene in the surroundings.

"What is going on? Didn't it die?" Seeing Adai stand up from the ground, Cai Yangqian was first astonished, followed immediately by panic and fear.

He was no fool; he immediately understood the reason, and his heart was instantly filled with both regret and remorse.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world!

Seeing this situation, Cai Yangqian hurriedly fished out a Jade Bottle and poured out an Alchemical Pill glowing with green light.

Snow Soul Life-Saving Pill: A top-tier Alchemical Pill that uses the physical body to nourish Mental Power, significantly stabilizing the soul and Consciousness Sea, and reducing the backlash after a Demon Pet's death. Note: Once consumed, it has the side effects of physical atrophy and a significant decrease in Mental Power.

The efficacy of the Snow Soul Life-Saving Pill was truly powerful, but the side effects were just too great, which was the main reason Cai Yangqian had not taken it out before.

Now it was too late; his Life-Bound Demon Pet, the Behemoth, was likely to die, and the resulting backlash would surely far exceed that of a blood-bonded Demon Pet, leaving him at best a living corpse and at worst dead on the spot.

Compared to this, the side effects of the Snow Soul Life-Saving Pill were naturally much lighter, and it still preserved the possibility of a comeback.

While taking out the Snow Soul Life-Saving Pill, Cai Yangqian also tried his best to recall the Behemoth, but the energy at the scene was too chaotic, and the recall required a certain amount of time, so he could only pray that the Behemoth could hold on through this period.

At the same time, the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin moved, preparing to rush toward the direction of Liyang City.

Cai Yangqian employed three measures simultaneously, launching self-rescue at the fastest speed possible.

This takes a long time to say, but in reality, it only took a second or two.

"Light Blessing Bird, cast Light Blessing on Adai!" While issuing the order, Li Zhangsheng also buffed Adai with Mental Acceleration, Ox's Brute Force, and Bloodthirsty Frenzy.

Roar~

Adai let out a roar, its eyes instantly turning blood-red, with only a final trace of clarity remaining; the veins all over its body bulged like small green snakes, and its already massive frame grew even larger, its height directly surging to twenty meters.

The Light Blessing Bird was slightly stunned, but it reacted quickly; as Adai lunged toward the Behemoth, it took the lead to cast Light Prayer on it.

The Light Blessing Bird and Adai were at the same realm, and Light Blessing could increase all of its abilities by 10%.

At this moment, Adai extended its massive claws, grabbing toward the back of the Behemoth, wanting to kill it in one strike.

While Adai launched its offensive, Aixi lunged toward the Behemoth from the other side.

The Behemoth naturally heard the commotion rising from behind; it subconsciously wanted to turn its head, but before it could finish turning, a massive claw easily tore through the Behemoth's prideful physical defense, bursting out from its chest, with a violently beating heart clutched in the claw.

Unlike the hearts of ordinary creatures, this Behemoth's heart was very large, and it had golden patterns on it.

The Behemoth stared with eyes as large as bowls, staring in disbelief at Adai's exceptionally ferocious beast face behind it.

Didn't it die?

Roar~

The Behemoth let out a death-throes scream, the sound filled with intense pain and unwillingness, as its massive body fell heavily to the ground like a golden mountain collapsing and a jade pillar toppling.

Its limbs twitched for quite a while before finally falling still.

The dignified "Land King" Behemoth had actually been killed by its own degenerate form, and the key was that the opponent was two major realms lower than it!

Roar~

After killing the Behemoth, Adai let out an excited roar, and then its massive body began to radiate light.

Set off by the light, Adai's fur became even rougher and thicker, and the wound on its waist healed at an even faster speed.

When the light faded, it revealed Adai's increasingly upright figure.

After killing the Behemoth, Adai successfully advanced to the Leader level, becoming Li Zhangsheng's fourth Leader-level Demon Pet.

Compared to before the advancement, Adai's size had grown by another circle, and in its normal state, it was likely about seventeen meters tall, exuding an increasingly magnificent aura.

Before the Behemoth died, Cai Yangqian inside the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin was filled with despair, but a strong desire to survive still made him toss the Snow Soul Life-Saving Pill into his mouth in time.

The Snow Soul Life-Saving Pill melted upon contact, rapidly taking effect and continuously stabilizing Cai Yangqian's Consciousness Sea; the originally turbulent Consciousness Sea quickly stabilized.

As the Snow Soul Life-Saving Pill took effect, Cai Yangqian's body rapidly withered, wrinkles began to appear on his face, his eyes gradually became dull, and his black hair also rapidly dried out and turned white.

This was the Snow Soul Life-Saving Pill forcibly extracting Cai Yangqian's life force and physical essence to forcibly stabilize his Consciousness Sea.

However, the moment the Behemoth died, the mental connection between Cai Yangqian and the Behemoth instantly collapsed, and his Consciousness Sea became turbulent once again.

The connection between a Life-Bound Demon Pet and a Monster Tamer far exceeds that of a blood-bonded Demon Pet, which is the main reason why the backlash is so great once they die.

"Ah!"

Cai Yangqian clutched his head in pain, curling up on the ground, letting out a shrill scream, as if countless steel needles had instantly pierced into his mind, stirring his brains into a chaotic mess, and an indescribable pain filled his body and mind.

Blood began to flow from his seven orifices, making him look like a vengeful ghost, giving off an extremely ferocious feeling.

The Snow Soul Life-Saving Pill was indeed worthy of being a top-tier Alchemical Pill, as it allowed Cai Yangqian to endure the first round of backlash.

Although there were second and third rounds to follow, they were far inferior to the first.

"Hoo, hoo!"

Cai Yangqian breathed heavily; having experienced the pain just now, he became even more fearful of death.

"I must live!"

Cai Yangqian muttered to himself and slowly climbed up from the ground.

At this moment, Cai Yangqian's appearance had changed drastically; his once sturdy build had become skin and bones, his black hair had turned white, and he looked haggard, like an old man in the twilight of his years, no longer possessing his former high spirits and refined elegance.

Only then did Cai Yangqian have the time to use the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin to check the situation outside.

Due to the backlash just now, the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin, which had been flying toward Liyang City, stopped abruptly and was currently hovering at the edge of the Red Maple Forest.

In the sky, intense booming sounds rang out continuously, and wanton energy bloomed like fireworks.

Among Cai Yangqian's remaining Demon Pets, the Green Dragon and the Dark Demon Wolf King were already on the verge of destruction, and it was feared that before long, death would be what awaited them.

Not far away, even though Di Zhuo had exhausted all his means, he was still slowly falling into a disadvantage in the clash with the Three-Legged Fire Crow.

The Space Attribute excels in being impossible to guard against, but Di Zhuo was not Di Jiang, and he could not sustain this aspect at all; furthermore, the Three-Legged Fire Crow's quality was not inferior to Di Zhuo's at all, its realm had reached the limit of the Lord level, and it had initially comprehended Sun True Fire and the Golden Crow Transformation Rainbow Technique.

Besides these, Li Zhangsheng was also guiding Aixi, Adai, and several other Demon Pets to besiege the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin, with the main attacking force naturally being Ning Bizhen's Cold Jade Rabbit.

Under the frantic bombardment of these few Demon Pets, the Purple Flame Barrier attached to the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin was clearly becoming unstable, and the Purple Flame Barrier began to weaken at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Without a doubt, the attack intensity of these few Demon Pets had already exceeded the recovery speed of the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin.

If things continued like this, it would not take long at all for the defense of the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin to be broken, and when that time truly came, death would be what awaited him.

"Go!"

After seeing the general situation clearly, Cai Yangqian barely maintained his composure; under his control, the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin moved once again, flying through the air toward Liyang City.

With the attack intensity of these few Demon Pets, Cai Yangqian was confident he could reach Liyang City before the Purple Flame Barrier was broken.

That was his hope for survival!

"Aixi, Adai, ram into it!"

Li Changsheng frowned, wanting to slow down the speed of the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin, because the treant controlled by Kailan was about to catch up.

Roar~

Aixi let out a loud roar, then leaped onto Adai to use him for leverage; as it detached from Adai, Adai instinctively gave its plump backside a push.

Like an arrow leaving the bowstring, a thick layer of cyan light screen appeared on Aixi's body, and it slammed fiercely into the Purple Flame Barrier.

The action of force is mutual.

The Purple Flame Barrier flickered violently, but it could only dissipate most of the force; the remaining force acted upon the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin, causing its speed to drop instantly by a significant margin.

After the collision, the cyan light screen on Aixi was crushed directly into fragments, but this also dissipated most of the reaction force for Aixi, and the remainder was painless and itchy for it.

Following Aixi, Adai also pushed its speed to the peak, riding the seven-colored clouds to slam into the Purple Flame Barrier.

Compared to Aixi, Adai, who was still in the Bloodthirsty Frenzy state, clearly had stronger power; under its frantic collision, the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin clearly faltered, its flight speed less than 1/3 of its usual speed.

Roar~

At this moment, enduring the immense reaction force and the scorching of the Purple Flame Barrier, Adai immediately unleashed the Golden Behemoth inheritance skill—Earth Cage!

In an instant, Adai's entire body flickered with an extremely intense earthy-yellow radiance.

Under Adai's control, this earthy-yellow energy rapidly extended and materialized, quickly turning into a huge cage that surrounded the entire Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin.

Boom~

The Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin slammed into the Earth Cage, and the earthy-yellow radiance composing the Earth Cage twisted violently.

Although the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin only hit one side, the earthy-yellow energy in the other directions was also helping to share the pressure.

However, the impact force of the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin was too strong, leaving the Earth Cage still in a state of collapse.

Clatter~

After holding on for only two or three breaths of time, the Earth Cage could no longer withstand it and was smashed directly into countless energy fragments.

It was also at this moment that the treant controlled by Kailan finally arrived.

Isolated, the kind where you can't even leave the door!

Alright, anyway, I have already been in secluded cultivation for over half a month, so I will just continue with the secluded cultivation.
