With a loud bang, the demonized man exploded, not even leaving behind a corpse. However, there was no blood, instead, his entire body transformed into a black Demonic Qi that wrapped around Yang Kai.
Boom boom boom…
A series of explosions rang out as one Demon after another exploded, causing Yang Kai’s heart to sink.
In the sky above, where people was fighting in the Plain Palace, a thick Demonic Qi burst out from the Demon’s self-destruction, like a black mushroom rapidly growing. In the blink of an eye, it covered a large area, forming a black cloud that covered a radius of several kilometers.
The dozen or so Emperor Realm following behind Yang Kai were caught off guard and were all wrapped up, even Yang Kai.
The faces of the people who had been laughing and chatting just a moment ago suddenly changed. The thin Demonic Qi which they had not placed in their eyes all this time suddenly became a thousand times thicker, and its power also skyrocketed.
Crackling sounds rang out as the Demonic Qi corroded everyone’s protective Emperor Qi. Even someone as strong as an Emperor Realm master felt his protective Emperor Qi begin to collapse, quickly being corroded one after another.
There was no need for anyone to say anything as the dozen or so cultivators all fled without hesitation.
When everyone left the range of the black cloud and looked back, they all had a look of lingering fear on their faces. None of them had expected that these Demon Race masters would actually self-destruct, and the power of their self-destruction would be so terrifying.
Yang Kai’s face sank to the point where it was about to drip water. There were more than a thousand Demon Race cultivators who had rushed towards them, but only three or four hundred of them had been knocked out by them, but in that instant, at least five or six hundred of them had self-destructed. In other words, in this direction alone, the Southern Domain had lost five or six hundred elite disciples.
This was certainly the case in other directions. The Southern Region’s elites had suffered heavy losses!
“Brother Chen, you…” A frightened voice suddenly called out.
Yang Kai turned his head and couldn’t help narrowing his eyes as he saw a middle-aged man standing there with a helpless look on his face. The Emperor Qi protecting his body had been broken and his body was wrapped in a black Demonic Qi. This Demonic Qi seemed to be alive as it seeped into his body through his pores and seven orifices, causing his aura to undergo a drastic change in an extremely short period of time. Even his eyes seemed to be covered in a black aura.
Yang Kai didn’t know who this person was, but it was likely a helper he had recruited from the Northern Region. He didn’t know which Sect Master he was from.
When the people around him saw this, all of them turned pale with fright and quickly scattered to the side, staring at him vigilantly, afraid he would suddenly attack.
The man himself was obviously a bit stunned, his hands spread out in front of his eyes as he stared blankly at Yang Kai before raising his head and begging, “Palace Master Yang, please save me!”
If he were to lose his rationality because of the Demonic Qi, he would be no different from the Demon Race cultivators who had self-destructed. At that time, his life and death would be out of his control and he wouldn’t even know when he would self-destruct.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Kai appeared in front of him, his aura suddenly undergoing a great change, and as he chant a spell, a beam of light shot out and enveloped him.
* Chi chi chi… *
Strands of black Qi seemed to have met their nemesis, and as the light enveloped this person, they flowed out from his pores and disappeared, his chaotic consciousness stabilizing as a feeling of escaping death filled his heart, “Many thanks, Palace Master Yang.”
Although he didn’t know what kind of magical method Yang Kai had used, he could clearly feel that the Demonic Qi that had invaded his body had been expelled.
“Be careful, all of you,” Yang Kai said as he swept his eyes over them. An Emperor Realm master had almost been turned into a demon by another, this was simply stupid. He could also see that it wasn’t that the Demonic Qi was difficult to guard against, but rather that this was the first time these people had come into contact with a Demonized Man, so they had been somewhat careless just now. Otherwise, as long as they could maintain their protective Emperor Qi, this situation would never have occurred.
Perhaps it was because of the Demon Race’s self-destruction at such a close distance.
Otherwise, back when he was outside Maplewood City, he was only a 1st order Principle Source Stagecultivator, so how could he have been able to resist the Demonic Qi for so long? Even if the Demonic Qi was extremely corrosive, as long as he could protect himself and not give it a chance, it wouldn’t be a problem.
“Wizard Technique!” On the crown of a big tree in the distance, a black shadow saw this scene and couldn’t help narrowing his eyes. Others didn’t know what method Yang Kai had used to expel the Demonic Qi, but he knew that it was actually Wizard Technique. In ancient times, the Demon Race had suffered greatly at the hands of those Great Wizard, and it was precisely because of this that they were shocked.
There was actually someone in this era who knew how to use wizard technique? Moreover, from the looks of it, he seemed to be extremely proficient in the Dao of Wizard Technique. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to perform an Exorcism so easily.
However, how was this possible? Generations created heroes, and each era had its own set of laws. How could there be anyone who could cultivate the laws of this world?
But before he could finish his thought, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
This person was shocked and retreated without even thinking.
“Condense!” A cold voice rang out in his ears, causing him to feel as if he had fallen into an icehouse. Looking up, he saw that Yang Kai, who had been a few kilometers away, had suddenly appeared in front of him, and after spitting out this word, the surrounding space suddenly solidified, transforming into an invisible cage that enveloped him.
He struggled with all his might, pushing his strength in an attempt to break free from the imprisoning force, but he felt like he had fallen into a quagmire. The more he struggled, the harder he fell.
“Demonic Will!” Yang Kai stared into his black eyes and coldly snorted.
This man was clearly different from the other Demon Race masters who had rushed over without fear of death. Although these Demon Race masters who had been corroded by Demonic Qi had also become bedeviled, they had lost their ability to think, but this man in front of him was able to move on his own. This man had undoubtedly been possessed by Demonic Will, just like Lei Gu. From his appearance, it seemed he was an Emperor Realm Elder from the Plain Palace.
“You deserve to die!” The man clenched his teeth and shouted, his body suddenly expanding, seemingly about to explode at any moment. Obviously, he knew he was not Yang Kai’s opponent and was even more unwilling to be captured.
“You want to self-destruct in front of me? Look at me!” Yang Kai shouted, his right eye suddenly transforming into a golden vertical eye as he poured out his Spiritual Energy.
The Demonic Consciousness that was preparing to self-destruct was stunned for a moment before its bloated body involuntarily shriveled up. Before it could react, Yang Kai grabbed it by the neck and stuffed it into a certain place in the Mysterious Small World to suppress it. Yang Kai didn’t kill it because there were still many things he hadn’t figured out yet. If he left it alive, he might be able to obtain some useful information.
In addition, Yang Kai also wanted to see if he could rescue this person from the Demonic Will like he had done to those who had been invaded by Demonic Qi.
Having succeeded in his first strike, Yang Kai turned around and frowned.
The massive black cloud in the sky continued to churn before transforming into over a hundred vortexes. Thick black Qi poured into these vortexes and soon disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, the black cloud disappeared and a hundred figures filled with Demonic Qi reappeared, all of them belonging to one of the thousands of Demon Race cultivators.
More than five or six hundred of the thousand Demon Race masters had self-destructed and were knocked out by Yang Kai and the others. The remaining hundred or so people had been hiding in the black clouds until now.
After swallowing the Demonic Qi formed by their self-destructing companions, each of their strength had greatly increased and the aura they exuded was not much weaker than an Emperor Realm master.
“What the hell is that!?” The Full Sky Sect Elder’s eyes trembled, his face filled with shock. It was only now that he realized how laughable his underestimation of his enemy had been. At first, they had not even put the thousand or so devil people in their eyes, but who would have thought that in the end, they would be able to gather enough strength to fight them?
However, everyone soon discovered that something was wrong, because although the strength of the hundred or so Demon Race masters had greatly increased, they still stood there like wooden stakes.
“Hurry up and knock them out,” Yang Kai shouted, suddenly realizing that these Demon Race people who had been corroded by Demonic Qi had temporarily lost their ability to act on their own. The only reason they had rushed over just now was because of someone else.
The one who was controlling it should be the Elder who had been possessed by the Demonic Consciousness from the Plain Palace.
Now that he had captured the master, these hundreds of Demon Race masters immediately became like puppets with their strings cut.
When the dozen or so people heard this sound, they all carefully rushed towards the hundred people, but after exchanging blows with them, they discovered that these demonized man showed no signs of resistance and were knocked unconscious one after another.
Seeing this, Yang Kai became more certain of his guess. These Demon Race people who had been corroded by Demonic Qi really didn’t have the ability to act on their own. He didn’t know if it was because of this, or if it was because they had been bedeviled for too long.
At this moment, Yang Kai didn’t have the time to think about it as he flew up into the sky. Looking around, he saw that there were more than twenty battlefields inside the Plain Palace, each of which was locked in a fierce battle.
The situation on his side was quite good. The North Region’s Emperor Realm master had been corroded by the Demonic Qi and was saved by him, so he hadn’t fallen into a state of madness. The Elder from the Plain Palace who controlled the Demon Race had been captured and the Demon Race had lost their ability to move.
However, other places did not have such a good start. Yang Kai could clearly see that some of the North Region’s Emperor Realm had already become bedeviled and were now turning against each other, fighting with their former friends and companions, causing these people to become furious. They could only struggle to resist, but it was not easy for them to kill, so they were greatly restricted.
After swallowing a large amount of Demonic Qi, the Demon Race cultivators who had grown stronger also rushed in fearlessly, fighting to the death with the two allied forces of the northeast.
Yang Kai’s eyes flashed for a moment before he looked down at a certain place and sent a few voice transmissions to the Stone Puppet Clan Elder.
The Elder and the eight Stone Puppets pushed forward layer by layer, causing the group of Demon Race masters to be battered and exhausted. Their bodies were special and they didn’t fear Demonic Qi at all, so they weren’t worried about the danger of becoming a Demon Race cultivator. Moreover, they were extremely strong and were invulnerable to weapons. Ordinary Emperor Real mwere nothing in front of them, let alone these Demon Race masters.
If it weren’t for the fact that they didn’t dare to act recklessly out of consideration for their own strength, they would have already killed the devils.
