Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal

Chapter 344 331 Slaying Demons

With the power of the Two Realms Ruler and having mastered the Void Blink Dao technique, Alkaid's movement speed had been enhanced to the extreme.

No sooner had a team from the Heavenly Casualty War Hall transmitted their information than Alkaid's figure appeared at the coordinates provided by the team.

Under the bewildered gazes of the team members, he accelerated once more and moved behind the Ninth Rank Great Demon that the team was tracking.

Before the Ninth Rank Great Demon had a chance to react, the sword light of the You Long Sword followed the elusive ripples of the void, as if piercing through it, and silently swept across the demon's body, shattering its head instantly.

After doing this, Alkaid nodded at the team members, "Dissect the corpse."

The next moment, his figure had vanished from the team's sight.

The entire process took only a breath or two.

It was only by this time that the other members of the team barely managed to react.

Looking at the Great Demon's corpse that had yet to fall towards the sea's surface, two teammates quickly moved to collect the body.

The materials from a Ninth Rank Great Demon were quite valuable, a significant wealth even for Golden Core Cultivators at the ninth layer, let alone for them who were at the seventh and eighth layers.

"So fast! So strong!"

"Hollow Void, this is the power of the Hollow Void experts to twist the void."

"Is our Junior Sect Leader always this decisive and swift in action? And, he actually personally took action to hunt these Ninth Rank Great Demons?"

Surprise filled the eyes of several team members.

Some found it inconceivable that Alkaid personally took action to hunt the demons.

After all, for those above, it was normal for subordinates to do the work and for them to take all the benefits.

Alkaid...

The Junior Sect Leader, personally hunting these Ninth Rank Great Demons!?

Does that mean...

The treasures exchangeable for contribution value he mentioned earlier would really be distributed to them?

With this thought, the members of the War Hall were suddenly filled with fighting spirit.

...

Elsewhere, after slaying a Ninth Rank Great Demon, Alkaid did not pause for a moment and continued to Blink, moving toward the coordinates provided by another team.

Before long, all the Ninth Rank Great Demons scattered within the area had been annihilated.

Having done this, he didn't slow down; instead, he once again used the power of the Two Realms Ruler and appeared at the coordinates where Qi Sha was located.

In front of him and dozens of War Hall disciples in the distance, a small island was faintly visible.

The island was only a few miles in radius and seemed unremarkable amidst the vast Deep Sea, but its submerged part had been hollowed out by the Demon Race long ago, laid with numerous formations, creating a powerful demon lair.

"Hall Master."

Qi Sha said in a low voice, "There's no telling what dangers are hidden in the Demon Race's lair; to be on the safe side, let me lead some men down first..."

"There's no need, as I have said, me being the War Hall Master, if I am to earn respect, I must lead by example."

Alkaid waved his hand dismissively.

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the Demon Race's lair, the power of the Cave Heaven capable of infiltrating the Void, mingled with the True Spirit Force, silently seeped into the island.

Utilizing his innate trait as the Child of the Void, coupled with his accomplishment as a Tenth Level Array Master, he quickly grasped the structure of the demon lair hidden beneath the sea.

After a brief pondering, he had a plan in mind, "We don't need to penetrate deep into this lair; flooding it with seawater will force them out of the ground."

In the Northern Sea Star, countless materials were eroded by Spiritual Energy and influenced by mysterious powers, all undergoing mutations. A rock, a blade of grass placed outside were materials that could be used to forge Spiritual Artifacts, and the ocean water was naturally no exception.

Most of the water currents in the marine area consist of Heavenly Water and Xuanming Heavy Water, collapsing layer upon layer, against which even Ninth Rank Great Demons struggled to withstand, let alone ordinary demons.

With the strategy set, Alkaid made a sweeping gesture with his empty hand, and the You Long Sword rose into the air, easily stirring ripples of the Void.

However, different from the usual Rift Sky with One Strike that would incite a Void tsunami, this time, he compressed and refined all the Void ripples layer by layer, ultimately...

To catch up to his thousand-year achievements in less than a century...

There truly was no point of comparison between people.

You see, Qi Sha was also proclaimed as one of the most outstanding True Disciples of his generation, which is why he was so proud and refused to accept any offers from the Peak Masters or Vein Masters.

Noble Families? Grand Clans?

He, Qi Sha, was the world, was the grand clan.

It was this kind of pride that led him to join the War Hall and waste hundreds of years.

Even so, despite the wasted centuries, he still firmly believed that with his talent, one day he would achieve Refining Void. Moreover, it would be through the Great Path of Destruction, and upon entering Refining Void, he would be amongst the best in combat and fighting.

Only now, as he looked at Alkaid...

His confidence and pride were faintly shaken.

"Whoosh!"

In less than half an hour, the You Long Sword returned to Alkaid's hand.

And in this demon lair, no trace of any demon's presence remained.

"Inventory the spoils."

Alkaid commanded.

Straight away, the cultivators from the Heavenly Casualty War Hall dived into the sea, braving the high temperatures, and dragged the demon corpses out.

These corpses were not just valuable in and of themselves but also served as proof for collecting Contribution Value at the Penglai Immortal Sect's Demon Slaying Hall.

Of course, the Demon Slaying Hall did not strictly require the bodies to award contribution points, as images retained on the Shadow Retaining Stone would also suffice.

Yet, it was tricky to determine exactly how many Great Demons had been slain in the destruction of a demon lair with only the Shadow Retaining Stone, and it was easier to calculate with the demon corpses present.

One by one, the Heavenly Casualty War Hall cultivators delved into the bottom of the sea, quickly bringing out the bodies.

Seventh Rank, Eighth Rank, Ninth Rank Great Demons were all present.

The number was so great that, had they been hunted down one by one in normal circumstances, it would likely take a year and a half.

Before long, however, a Hollow Void War Immortal brought over a Great Demon resembling a shark person but with a ring of crimson red scales on its body.

"Hall Master, please look—this is one of the demon race's special tribes, the Red-scaled Demon!"

This Hollow Void War Immortal spoke with a hint of gravity: "Red-scaled Demons are somewhat equivalent to special constitution bearers among our Human Race, also classified under the Void Category. They are extremely sensitive to the Void and are traditionally experts in constructing Teleportation Arrays for the demon races. Moreover, Red-scaled Demons always appear in pairs, facilitating the precise alignment of two Transmission Formations."

"What you're saying is, where there's one Red-scaled Demon, there must be another demon lair at its corresponding location?"

Alkaid said.

"Yes. One of our young men from the Heavenly Casualty War Hall has a Secret Technique that can use this Red-scaled Demon to sense the location of its pair, thereby locating another demon lair."

"Then what are we waiting for!? Find it."

Alkaid immediately said, "Eradicating a demon lair is much more efficient than pursuing scattered Great Demons one by one."

"Wait."

Qi Sha suddenly spoke up, "This demon lair is close to the Inner Sea and seems to have been established not long ago, with no Hollow Void Demon King overseeing it. But that might not be the case with other nests."

"Hollow Void Demon King..."

Alkaid glanced at him, "Are you afraid?"

Qi Sha was taken aback and replied, "It's just a Demon King; I've killed one before."

"Then that settles it."

Alkaid felt the growth progress of the "Immortal Path - Refining the Void" branch...

After eradicating another demon lair, even without a Hollow Void Demon King, it would be nearly enough.
