FVN Chapter 25 Killing the Demon
Chapter 25 Killing the Demon
Each incredibly sharp arrow, as if transformed into a blazing sun, was launched with tremendous force.
Moreover, those arrows were extremely accurate; they even hit the same spot.
Finally, one arrow, two arrows, three arrows...
When the fourth arrow was fired, it cleverly pierced through the magic shield and then shot through the middle-aged demonic cultivator's abdomen, causing him considerable injury.
"Kuiyi, Kuifang, Little Dark Golden Rat, seize this opportunity and bombard the weak point in the light barrier that has been pierced."
Upon seeing this, Kui Yi's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he kept calling out to Kui Yi and the others as he fired his arrow.
"Okay."
Kui Yi and the others immediately understood and hurriedly launched a series of attacks at the gap in the light barrier.
It gradually widened the gap, eventually shattering it completely, and also blasted away the demonic cultivator's magic shield, forcing the demonic cultivator to dodge repeatedly, leaving him in a sorry state.
"Is this some kind of ghost story?"
'How did those cultivators and that little dark golden rat suddenly appear? And they even have mid-grade first-level concealment talismans on their bodies. No wonder I didn't notice them hiding in the shadows earlier.'
"That other miner is really cunning; he calls for backup when he can't win. I'll fuck your mother."
"..."
Seeing the situation was dire, the middle-aged demonic cultivator felt a chill run down his spine, cursed under his breath, and turned to run away.
"Too late!"
Upon seeing this, Ye Xuan'an quickly raised his hand and took out a top-tier innate trapping magic weapon, the "Blazing Bronze Bell," which he had specially crafted some time ago.
It is extremely small, bright red, and covered with unique bright red patterns, making it very special.
"go."
It quickly flew to the top of the demonic cultivator's head and conjured a thick bronze bell-shaped light screen, trapping him and Kui Yi and the others, thus creating an excellent environment for Kui Yi and the others to kill him.
Moreover, due to Ye Xuan'an's subtle control, the barrier that traps enemies will not block the arrows shot by Kui Yi from afar.
"Another top-tier innate magic artifact?"
The middle-aged demonic cultivator was filled with despair.
Moreover, the barrier that trapped the enemy was extremely thick, and given their current situation, it would be impossible to break through it in a short period of time.
They were trapped and could only wait to die.
He was eventually killed by Kui and his men.
"Having the likes of Kui Yi to help me is just awesome."
"Moreover, Kui Yi's performance in this battle was truly outstanding. Not only did he manage to create a breach in the magic shield's light barrier, but he also demonstrated excellent command skills. He is destined for greatness."
Ye Xuan'an looked at Kui Yi, who was holding a bow and arrow, and was extremely satisfied, praising him repeatedly.
Immediately afterwards, he took all of Kui Yi and the others, as well as the corpse of the middle-aged demonic cultivator, and the surrounding blood-stained soil into the servant tower.
He then commanded a white jade paper crane and quickly left the place.
During this time, he also had his servants, including Kui Yi, in the tower to help refine the storage items on the middle-aged demonic cultivator's body and take stock of the demonic cultivator's wealth.
The demonic cultivator's resources were quite impressive, including not only a considerable amount of spirit stones but also some demonic pills.
The most valuable items were the Lava Gourd and the Lava Magic Shield.
"While those two items are magical artifacts, it's rumored that the black market buys them, and given their excellent quality, they're estimated to fetch around two hundred spirit stones."
"As for the remaining magic cores, they're worth some money too."
"Upon careful calculation, that demonic cultivator's entire fortune totaled nearly four or five hundred spirit stones, making him quite the big winner this time."
Ye Xuan'an's face was full of joy.
……
Soon after.
Several demonic cultivators at the early and middle stages of Qi Refining suddenly arrived at the site where Ye Xuan'an had previously fought with the middle-aged demonic cultivator.
"Judging from the life tablet left behind by the eighteenth prince, he died tragically here."
"But all traces of the battle here have been erased, so there's nothing to be seen at all."
"..."
After the demonic cultivators found their way here using the life tablet of the middle-aged demonic cultivator, they surveyed the surroundings but found nothing, so they frowned.
In addition, the life tablet is a special spiritual object that cultivators refine using their essence and blood as a source, and it can remotely sense the life and death of cultivators.
It can even be used as a positioning tool when necessary.
However, only Foundation Establishment cultivators can refine such things, so ordinary people do not have them.
However, the middle-aged demonic cultivator who died tragically earlier was, after all, the disciple of the Lava Old Demon.
Therefore, the Lava Demon crafted one for him in case of an accident.
"Eleventh Senior Brother, what should we do now?"
At this moment, the other demonic cultivators all looked at the demonic cultivator with the highest cultivation level of Qi Refining Level 6 and asked him questions.
"We haven't found any trace of the murderer yet, and my cultivation isn't much stronger than the Eighteenth Elder's. Even he was defeated. I'm afraid that even if we find the murderer, we won't be able to do anything to him. We might even run into trouble."
"Furthermore, our relationship with the Eighteenth Prince is so-so. If he dies, he dies. Why should we take the risk?"
"We shouldn't delay the important matter of capturing the miners. If Master blames us, we'll be in trouble."
That demonic cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining.
"That's true."
The other demonic cultivators strongly agreed with this proposal.
Although they were fellow disciples of the middle-aged demonic cultivator who died tragically, the path of demonic cultivators does not value camaraderie among fellow disciples; they only care about interests.
To avoid any accidents, they quickly left the area and began searching for the miners who had fled in the surrounding area.
……
the other side.
Within that large, fiery mineral vein.
As time went by, once Zhao Yuanming's life essence was completely burned away, he was easily killed by the Lava Demon.
"That old dog of the Zhao family really knows how to cause trouble."
The Lava Demon looked disdainfully at Zhao Yuanming's corpse.
He then put it away, intending to use it later for refining treasures.
Afterwards, when he had nothing else to do, he began to capture the miners who had fled around him, or to hunt down Zhao Xingchuan and other Zhao clan cultivators.
After half a day, when some miners and Zhao clan cultivators had run far away and were no longer able to catch up, he and the other demonic cultivators finally stopped.
During this period, they killed more than 70% of the cultivators in the Zhao family's mines, with only one or two strong cultivators, such as Zhao Xingchuan, escaping.
As for the miners, nearly half of them were arrested, roughly two hundred.
If we add to that the dozens of miners who voluntarily joined the demonic cultivators earlier.
There are approximately 250 people in total.
In addition to the middle-aged demonic cultivator killed by Ye Xuan'an, other miners or Zhao clan cultivators also killed some demonic cultivators to varying degrees.
However, the Lava Demon didn't care about this. After all, he had a lot of disciples and grand-disciples. If a few died, so be it. He could just train more later. Anyway, demonic cultivation techniques were fast and demonic disciples were easy to train.
At this moment, inside the mine.
"More than 250 miners? That's not bad."
"You guys did a pretty good job this time."
"With this group of miners, we can quickly mine the ore here. However, there is very little ore here. It is estimated that we can only mine tens of thousands of kilograms of ore. We are really too late."
The Lava Demon praised his disciples and grand-disciples, rewarding them with some demon pills, before glancing regretfully at the mine before him.
He then arranged for his disciples and followers to supervise the miners' work.
He didn't even allow the miners to rest, except for mealtimes and a few quiet periods.
If anyone is slacking off, just hit them.
Only in this way can the value of those miners be maximized.
"That old devil truly doesn't treat us like human beings. Why are we so unlucky as to have been captured and brought back?"
"..."
Many miners harbored deep resentment towards the Lava Demon and constantly cursed him in secret.
