Chapter 160: The Massive Demon Body

"This..."

Lu Tianyu gave a mysterious smile: "I naturally cannot tell you this, unless you immediately acknowledge me as your master."

"Hmph!" The Demon Dog tilted its head slightly, "Wait until you have refined my master's Demon Body before talking."

It could not let its guard down.

Cui Jinjia shook her head slightly: "Secrets naturally cannot be told to others."

"Little doggy, you had better hurry and acknowledge him as your master, then you will know immediately."

She appeared even more anxious than the Demon Dog.

She was indeed very curious about Lu Tianyu's treasure.

"Hmph, hmph, hmph!"

The Demon Dog remained unmoved: "I won't do that; I am not a three-year-old child anymore."

"But you all must be careful; my master's Demon Body is very formidable, watch yourselves!"

"We are almost there, I won't go down, you go down yourselves!"

Having said that, without waiting for Lu Tianyu's reply, it whooshed away.

At this moment, Lu Tianyu and his companion arrived in a pitch-black space where even light was swallowed.

The dense Demonic Qi had almost condensed into a physical substance.

Cui Jinjia had to activate a protective barrier, turning her head to look at Lu Tianyu as if looking at a monster.

She clearly saw the surging Demonic Qi actually entering Lu Tianyu's body, only to disappear afterward, with no idea where it had gone.

She even suspected whether there was a small world inside Lu Tianyu's body capable of absorbing everything.

Moreover, she observed that black light emerged from Lu Tianyu's eyes, and he stared fixedly ahead, seemingly able to see things in front of him.

She could not help but ask: "Can you see clearly?"

With such dense Demonic Qi, even her Divine Sense could not probe very far, as it was all blocked.

She vaguely felt that Lu Tianyu should be able to see clearly.

Lu Tianyu nodded: "In the center ahead, there is a dried-up Blood Pool, and in the center of the Blood Pool is the Demon Body."

"It is ten zhang tall and two zhang wide; the body is incomplete, and it seems a portion was taken away by someone."

"There may be a remnant soul within the body, let's go over and take a look!"

As he spoke, he walked forward step by step.

Cui Jinjia gripped her Golden Blade and followed vigilantly behind.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that she was not the Protector; the young man before her was the one acting as the protector.

This young man was too mysterious and powerful, even comparable to the prodigies of the Tianjia Sect.

Given time, once this young man grew up, he would surely be a major figure capable of stirring up the entire Tianhe Galaxy.

Lu Tianyu's attention, however, was on the Demon Body.

The Demon's head was missing, and several bones were also missing from the arms, ribs, and legs.

Combining the dried blood in the Blood Pool with the bones found in the storage ring of the Ancestor of Black Bones, he immediately associated it with a fact.

In order to recover his strength, this Demon Head had traded parts of his body with the Netherworld Sect in exchange for fresh human blood.

The Netherworld Sect also considered the repercussions and did not wantonly kill to obtain blood, fearing that interested parties would discover the existence of the Demon Cave.

After the blood extraction, a slender blood vessel had appeared at the empty heart of the Demon Head before them, though it would still take a long time before it fully recovered.

Once the heart recovered, flesh and blood would form, the Demon Head would completely awaken, and he could quickly restore his cultivation by going outside to slaughter.

The Netherworld Sect was actually trading with this Demon Head in private; if the outside sects found out, they would certainly join forces to destroy the Netherworld Sect.

However, since Lu Tianyu had encountered it, he must destroy this Demon Body.

Ten thousand rays of golden light shone from Cui Jinjia, illuminating the massive Demon Body, and she immediately gasped:

"If this big guy recovers, it will surely cause a catastrophic disaster to your star region; in a very short time, he will slaughter and devour all the living beings here."

"Since such a large Demon Head is suppressed here, Young Master, let me destroy this Demon Head first!"

With her Golden Blade in hand and her aura rising, Cui Jinjia was about to act.

"Wait!"

Lu Tianyu stopped her: "We agreed that this matter is left to me to handle; Senior just needs to watch from the side."

"If he makes any move, it won't be too late for Senior to act then!"

While speaking, he whooshed up to the top of the Demon Head's neck and sat down cross-legged.

The Demon Head had lost its skull, but the surface area of the cervical vertebrae was still quite large.

But as soon as he sat down, he felt something was wrong and immediately leaped down.

He felt a heart-palpitating aura rising from below, and his soul trembled incessantly.

There was no need to guess; there was still a remnant soul inside this Demon Body.

Hum!

The pitch-black patterns in his eyes rotated, scanning every inch of the Demon Body from the soles of his feet, while he shouted to Cui Jinjia: "Senior, be careful, there is a remnant soul inside this big guy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he discovered something unusual and shouted: "Where are you running!"

"Come out!"

Circles of black patterns shot from his pupils, enveloping the area around the Demon Head's ankle.

A grey-black little figure was dragged out from the lower leg, roaring hysterically: "Lu Tianyu, it's you, you dog!"

"You actually colluded with outsiders to sneak into the Demon Cave and caused my body to crumble; I will kill you!"

The black little figure was precisely the escaped soul of Zong Tianling.

After his body was destroyed by Cui Jinjia, he had immediately used a forbidden technique, consuming half of his soul power to flee for his life.

He knew that facing a Great Vehicle Stage cultivator, he would certainly be captured with only his soul remaining.

Afterwards, he saw a large tripod below, and its terrifying aura made his heart tremble with fear.

But with Cui Jinjia chasing from behind, he had no choice but to flee downwards.

Helpless, he had to use a secret technique again, consuming half of his remaining soul power to perform a spatial teleportation.

Then he continued downwards until he reached here.

He knew there was a remnant soul of a demon in this demon body, but this demon soul had reached an agreement with him and would not kill him.

He thought he was safe.

He only had to wait for Lu Tianyu and the Great Vehicle Stage woman to leave, and he could escape to possess a high-ranking member of a sect and practice the Demon Art.

The cultivation speed of the Demon Art is fast, and it would not take long for him to recover his cultivation base.

But he did not expect the golden-armored woman to still chase after him, and Lu Tianyu had come with her.

Furthermore, Lu Tianyu had captured him.

At this moment, he completely understood that the large tripod was likely Lu Tianyu's treasure, which this brat must have obtained from the Forbidden Abyss.

Zong Tianling knew that he could not escape his fate.

However, as a former Void Refinement Stage cultivator, how could he possibly bow his head to Lu Tianyu?

Having ruined all his plans, he hated Lu Tianyu to the core, and at this moment, all he could do was curse and berate him.

Cui Jinjia snorted coldly: "You actually ran here; you will undoubtedly die for practicing the Demon Art!"

Lu Tianyu gave a cold snort: "You are now meat on my chopping block, yet you still dare to clamor!"

"Rest assured, once I kill you, I will destroy the Nether Three Sects and let your disciples and followers go down to accompany you!"

"I am going to search your soul!"

He used his Demon Eye to control Zong Tianling's soul and slowly pulled it over.
