Chapter 1217: Demon Creature

Because he had never seen such an intense Demon aura before; although this thing before him had its Demon power endlessly drained by the Daoists in the Fierce Fire Temple, rendering it extremely weak, Chen Yu could still sense a faint trace of Demon intent from it.

"Are you a Demon?" Chen Yu raised his head and looked at the giant Demon before him. He was not sure if the other party could understand his words, but he was certain it could understand communication on a mental level.

This guy raised its head, and the several eyes clustered together made one's heart crawl.

If one had trypophobia, one absolutely could not look this thing in the eye, because the series of eyes looked just like the eggs of some creature clustered together, making one feel awe and fear at the sight.

Chen Yu stood quietly before it, waiting for it to recover its Mental Power to communicate with him, yet Chen Yu had guessed wrong; this guy had never intended to communicate with him at all.

It suddenly let out a roar, then swung its massive front claws, violently attacking Chen Yu.

Chen Yu's figure flashed, retreating dozens of feet to put distance between them. The guy stood up abruptly, its three-story-tall body standing before Chen Yu like a mountain of flesh.

This guy looked like an ape, covered from head to toe in white fur, and standing upright it was several feet tall, creating a very strong visual impact.

The shape and appearance of this guy meant it was absolutely not the kind of benevolent creature; it was cruel by nature, and after standing up, it ignored Chen Yu's mental communication, let out a roar, and raised its claws to attack Chen Yu.

Chen Yu's figure swayed, retreating a few more steps. This time, a large tree as thick as two people could embrace, where he had originally been standing, was swiped away by the giant beast's palm.

"No communication?" Chen Yu stared at this guy and sneered: "I am speaking to you nicely now; if we can talk, we shall talk, and if we cannot, I will send you on your way."

The giant beast roared toward the sky, then violently hammered its chest, its six eyes staring at Chen Yu, emitting a crimson radiance.

Chen Yu turned into an afterimage and vanished. Boom—the radiance from the giant beast's eyes struck the spot where Chen Yu had just been standing, and his location was destroyed by the strike of this radiance.

Chen Yu appeared behind the giant beast, and Lichen had already appeared in his hand. He raised his right hand upward, and the Lichen in his hand emitted a crimson radiance.

The giant beast sensed the crisis behind it; it turned around abruptly, its eyes radiating a soul-captivating expression.

Even as strong as Chen Yu was, his Mental Power felt a bit dazed for that moment. He closed his eyes, then opened them abruptly, a flash of dark light in his eyes, forcefully expelling that trace of discomfort from his consciousness.

So it was a giant beast skilled in mental-level attacks; it was a waste of such a tall and sturdy body.

The radiance in the giant beast's two eyes flickered slightly, intending to completely control Chen Yu.

But unfortunately, Chen Yu's Divine Sense was extremely powerful; it tried several times but failed to control Chen Yu with its Mental Power.

"Out of tricks?" Chen Yu raised his head, staring at the giant beast before him, and laughed: "Then it is my turn."

Chen Yu's figure flashed, and the Lichen in his hand fell with a swing of the sword, in a sweeping-across-a-thousand-armies stance, violently slashing forward.

With a boom, the massive Sword Light whistled out and struck the giant beast's body heavily.

The giant beast let out a cry of pain; its tough skin had been slashed by Chen Yu's sword, leaving a crack deep enough to see bone.

Chen Yu was also secretly shocked; this guy really had tough skin and thick flesh. His sword strike just now had used almost all his strength, yet it only left a wound on its body and did not completely subdue it.

One could imagine the strength of this guy, if not for those Daoists trapping it for hundreds of years and continuously draining Demon power from it.

If not for the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao, and its strength being greatly reduced after leaving the Demon Realm, he would have really had some trouble facing it today.

The giant beast felt the pain and let out a violent roar of agony; the roar shook the heavens and the earth, and even the accumulated snow on the surrounding mountains fell with a rustle.

Fortunately, this was not deep in the Snow Mountain, otherwise, just by that roar from this guy, it might have triggered a massive avalanche.

Chen Yu slowly gathered his Qi, staring at this guy before him once more.

The previous sword strike was just a test; if he were to do it again, he would have to get serious.

After the giant beast roared, it used both hands and feet, violently charging toward Chen Yu.

This guy's figure was massive, and although it looked very impactful, this also limited its ability to move too quickly.

Chen Yu took a step forward, his figure flashed, and he went to meet the giant beast.

He slashed three times with the Lichen in his hand; three streaks of Sword Qi condensed in mid-air, then transformed into a giant blade, slashing toward the giant beast.

Pfft, pfft—two streaks of Sword Qi went straight for the giant beast's eyes; the guy let out a cry of pain and reached out to cover its eyes.

And the final streak of Sword Qi exploded on its body, causing its massive frame to stagger backward and fall to the ground.

Chen Yu stepped forward, and another sword strike fell; this strike was just enough to take its Life.

One could see fresh blood spurting out from the massive wound, gathering into a small stream on the ground and slowly flowing downstream.

And wherever this guy's blood flowed, all vegetation withered.

"As expected of something from the Demon Realm, its blood can make all things perish?" Chen Yu stared at this guy for a good while before letting out a slight sigh of relief.

Regardless, the matter was finally resolved, and the crisis in the village could be considered lifted.

Chen Yu sent a signal to Zhou Meng, then waited here quietly.

A moment later, Zhou Meng rushed up with the villagers; seeing this giant monster that was three stories tall, both were taken aback.

"Chen Yu, is, is this the Mountain God?" Zhou Meng asked, dumbfounded.

"This is the Mountain God the Daoists spoke of, but it is not a true Mountain God, nor is it a Demon," Chen Yu said.

"Then what is it?" Zhou Meng looked at this thing before her and took out her phone to take a picture.

This thing was too large; there were no such large creatures on land, unless it was a giant beast from the deep sea that could compare to it.

"A beast of the Demon Race. To be precise, it is something that came out of the Demon Realm."

"Something that came out of the Demon Realm?" Zhou Meng was even more shocked; did a Demon Realm really exist in this world?

"It is too troublesome to explain to you; let's drag its corpse back. The children sacrificed before are all in that deep pit."

Zhou Meng looked silently toward the deep pit, only to see piles of skeletons in the pit; these skeletons were small in stature, and most were children.

She walked to the edge of the deep pit and mourned in silence.

This guy's body was too massive; the villagers who followed wove a net with hemp ropes, then laid branches and leaves underneath it, and forcibly dragged it back.
