Chapter 479 The Devil's Backlash
Although the black-robed demon cultivator felt a violent palpitation and had a bad premonition, he still shot out the pitch-black spear in his hand without hesitation.
At the same time, he opened his mouth, and a pitch-black fan-shaped scale flew out, turning into a huge pitch-black magic shield, blocking him. Only at this moment did he breathe a sigh of relief.
In his opinion, even if the opponent had any means of counterattack, his Red Demon Three-phase Shield could resist it. Even if his initial magic weapon could not resist the opponent's attack, he could reserve time for himself to perform the magic hundred-foot flash.
At this time, Xiao Lin's cold "go" word also came out, and a white light suddenly flashed, and the pitch-black spear suddenly collapsed silently when it was still seven or eight feet away from Xiao Lin.
At this moment, the black-robed demon cultivator looked at the fist-sized hole on the Red Demon Three-phase Shield in front of him, revealing a stunned expression, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
He lowered his head and looked at the fist-sized wound on his chest, which was still flashing with a faint white light. The black-robed demon cultivator turned to look at Xiao Lin, and his mouth moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but the next moment, he fell into eternal darkness.
The nine skulls surrounding Xiao Lin suddenly stopped spewing pale green light, and the magic fire in their eye sockets suddenly began to shake. In Xiao Lin's surprised eyes, the nine skulls turned and flew towards the body of the black-robed demon cultivator.
In an instant, they surrounded it and bit the body without hesitation. At the same time, a large piece of pale green flame emerged from the skull, wrapping up the body of the black-robed demon cultivator.
Xiao Lin looked at this scene in surprise, but he still pointed at the Qingluan Ice Sword beside him, flew to the body of the black-robed demon cultivator, and cut off one of his palms. The sword light swept over, and only a star ring was left, which was wrapped in a ball of spiritual light and delivered to Xiao Lin's hand.
After collecting the black-robed demon cultivator's star ring, Xiao Lin heard the black-robed demon cultivator's shrill screams. It turned out that this person's soul did not escape from his body after the broken blade pierced his body. Perhaps it was sealed in the body by the white light of the broken blade and could not escape.
But no matter which one it was, the black-robed demon cultivator's soul was doomed to a miserable end when the nine skulls began to gnaw on his body.
These kinds of demon gods are fed by the demon cultivators through their own blood essence. They have to be fed every once in a while. On the one hand, it is to strengthen the restrictions imposed on these demon gods, and on the other hand, it is also to use this method to continuously sacrifice and refine them, thereby enhancing the power of the demon gods.
But this will also have a disadvantage. Is there nothing in normal times? Once the master is seriously injured or dies, these demon gods will recover some consciousness and instincts, and usually attack the master. Therefore, the immortal cultivators who have cultivated this kind of gods and demons usually do not choose to fight to the death. When they find that the situation is not good, they will choose to retreat in order to avoid the consequences of being attacked by the demon gods they have sacrificed.
After the black-robed demon cultivator was killed by Xiao Lin, his soul did not escape from his body, and the demon god he sacrificed began to loosen after he was killed. These demon gods were all immortal cultivators with deep cultivation in their lives. After being killed by this person, they extracted their souls and sacrificed them into demon gods.
In the subconscious of these demon gods, they have long hated the black-robed demon cultivator to the bone, but they are controlled by others and their minds are in a state of confusion. They can only helplessly let him drive them, but the memories in their subconscious will occasionally pop up, making them look gnashing their teeth.
At this moment, the black-robed demon cultivator was killed by Xiao Lin, and these demon gods immediately recovered some fragments of their own consciousness. Naturally, they realized that their great revenge was in front of them, so how could they not instantly have a murderous heart and wanted to devour him.
Xiao Lin put the broken blade beside him into the star ring, and at the same time opened his mouth slightly. The nine Qingluan Ice Swords entered his mouth like swimming fish and disappeared without a trace. The Sky Escape Mirror also flashed slightly, and followed the Qingluan Ice Sword into Xiao Lin's mouth.
Poor black-robed demon cultivator probably never thought that there would be a day when he would be devoured by the demon god he had sacrificed. The shrill screams shook in the void, and at this time Ji Dongliu, Zhuo Wanqing and Che Lanxin arrived late.
When they heard the shrill screams of the black-robed demon cultivator, their faces changed drastically, and then they saw Xiao Lin standing safely in the void, his whole body wrapped in a green light tower, with a gloomy face, staring at the body of the black-robed demon cultivator wrapped in pale green flames.
Ji Dongliu and the other two saw the wound on the chest of the black-robed demon cultivator at a glance, and instantly guessed the general process. They looked at Xiao Lin with a look of horror.
Seeing the corpse of the black-robed demon cultivator being eaten by the demon god, although they didn't want to believe that it was done by Xiao Lin alone, there was no one else around, so it was likely that this person had fallen into Xiao Lin's hands.
He hurried over, obviously for his dual cultivation partner, and from beginning to end, several people had never seen the demon cultivator. From this, it can be seen that the woman had most likely fallen into Xiao Lin's hands.
The three looked at each other, and saw some fear in the eyes of the other two, and the three quickly flew in front of Xiao Lin.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, did you kill these six people from the Kuimo Palace?" Ji Dongliu looked at Xiao Lin and asked cautiously.
"How could I have such a great ability? This person was obsessed with cultivation and was attacked by the demon god he had sacrificed. I was lucky to have picked up a ready-made advantage." After saying that, Xiao Lin flew to the body of the demon cultivator and sealed the nine skulls in a jade box through a secret method, and then put them into the star ring as if nothing had happened.
Hearing this, Ji Dongliu almost rolled his eyes at Xiao Lin. As a cultivator, although it is not impossible for him to suddenly go crazy during the fight between the two, the probability is actually very small. The obsession of cultivators usually occurs when they are practicing.
In the process of fighting, it is impossible for anyone to practice, so Xiao Lin's reason is just an excuse in his eyes, and this reason is very perfunctory.
However, Ji Dongliu also understood that since the person in front of him was so secretive about what happened, even if he continued to ask, it would most likely only make the other party unhappy.
Therefore, he did not raise any questions, but smiled awkwardly and nodded, and did not continue to ask.
Che Lanxin and the other two women did not continue to ask, especially for Che Lanxin, Xiao Lin had saved her life, and this favor had already made her feel very ashamed. She did not expect that she would owe a favor inexplicably for an action of hunting monsters.
"Where is Fellow Daoist Shen?" Xiao Lin obviously did not intend to tell the whereabouts of the previous demon female cultivator. After returning to the side of the few people, he asked Shen Feichen.
"Daoyou Shen Feichen is seriously injured and is now recovering on the Dragon Island." Che Lanxin smiled slightly, bowed and continued: "This time, we have to thank Daoyou Xiao for not only helping us through this dangerous situation, but also saving Lanxin's life. In the future, if there is a need, as long as Lanxin can make the decision in the Five Elements Alliance, she will definitely respond to your request."
Hearing this, Xiao Lin's face was also solemn, and he bowed his hands in return.
"Daoyou Dao is serious. We are teammates. It is only right to help each other in danger. As for the words of repayment, let's not mention it."
Hearing this, Che Lanxin said: "Daoyou Xiao's words are enough to show that Daoyou is a broad-minded person. Although Lanxin is a woman, she also knows the principle of repaying a favor. If Daoyou Xiao insists on refusing, it will make Lanxin even more uneasy."
Hearing this, Xiao Lin could only sigh helplessly and nodded gently, which was considered as tacit agreement.
"That's true. We are still alive this time, thanks in large part to Fellow Daoist Xiao. The hateful old man Zou Jingyang actually fled in the face of battle and left us alone. It's really chilling." Ji Dongliu said beside him.
"The Fire Talisman Sect is originally a small sect that is not even a third-rate sect. In the entire Eastern Territory, there are at least 800 such sects. After we go back, we will have to report to the Sect Master and go to the army to question him." Zhuo Wanqing's pretty face was also covered with a layer of frost, and she said angrily.
"Survival instinct is human nature. As the saying goes, everyone has their own aspirations. Although Zou Jingyang's behavior is despicable, it is also an instinctive choice to save his life in a dangerous situation. At least he did not collude with the two people from the Six Dao Kui Demon Palace, which is already very good." Che Lanxin thought for a moment and said.
Hearing this, Xiao Lin looked at Che Lanxin in surprise. This woman was kindhearted and could be considered the conscience of the immortal cultivation world. However, what she said made sense to Xiao Lin. If it were him, without the life-saving means of the Small Teleportation Order, he would not necessarily choose to confront the two people from the Six Paths Demon Palace. In the final analysis, he chose to take action only when he was somewhat sure of his chances.
In comparison, Ji Dongliu and Zhuo Wanqing also resolutely chose to join forces with Che Lanxin and Shen Feichen to resist the two demon cultivators, which was actually commendable.
