Chapter 1684 Golden Armor Demon Corpse
After distributing the three late Nascent Soul corpses, the remaining ones are the seven mid-Nascent Soul corpses and the thirteen early Nascent Soul corpses. These are relatively easy to deal with, and no matter who comes forward, it is not a big problem. After some discussion, it was decided that the four dwarf demons Li Zhenjun, Wu Zhenjun, Chen Zhenjun and Zichan Demon King would deal with the seven mid-Nascent Soul corpses, while Master Qingshi, Madam Baigu, Fengling Demon King and Zhumo Zhenjun would be responsible for killing the thirteen early Nascent Soul corpses.
Li Zhenjun, Wu Zhenjun, Chen Zhenjun and Zichan Demon King are all fifth-level Nascent Soul cultivators who can pass the pre-selection of the All Spirits Association. Their real strength is stronger than it looks on the surface. It is not difficult to deal with the mid-Nascent Soul corpses. Even if they are one against two, they may kill the opponent.
Arranging Master Qingshi, Madam Baigu, Phoenix Spirit Demon King, and Zhumo Zhenjun to deal with the Nascent Soul Demon Corpse is to ensure victory in this battle. They are all Nascent Soul cultivators. Master Qingshi and Madam Baigu have reached the fifth level of Nascent Soul. They are also ghost cultivators and have a better understanding of the fighting methods of demon corpses. It is almost a sure win for them to deal with the Nascent Soul Demon Corpse.
As for Qingyang, he is basically just making up the numbers. No one expects him to do anything. As long as he can save his life in the battle, his task is to refine pills after the success, not to fight with those demon corpses. The main reason is that his cultivation is too low. Others don’t think Qingyang’s strength can be that strong, so they just arrange him to block those low-level demon corpses.
After the discussion, everyone did not delay any longer and led by the sixth-level Yuanying dwarf demon Ruan Zhenjun into the valley ahead. In order to find out the situation of the underground demon cave, these dwarf demons went in and out of this place many times and were very familiar with the surrounding situation. After entering the valley, they quickly found the entrance to the underground demon cave and then led everyone down with ease.
This valley is surrounded by a rare place where the dark ghost energy is concentrated. The valley is obviously much darker, and the underground demon cave is even darker. The cave is gloomy, and the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling can be heard from time to time. The temperature has also dropped a lot, as if entering the netherworld ghost domain.
Such an environment is extremely suitable for ghost cultivators, but it has a great impact on immortal cultivators. Therefore, after entering this place, the Red Ghost King and others suddenly increased their momentum and added a bit of confidence, while the Thunder Feather Demon King and others restrained their breath and became more cautious. Qingyang had obtained a Yin-Yang Mysterious Art in the Netherworld, which could absorb Yin-Nether ghost energy for cultivation and transform the true essence in his body into Nether Yuan to disguise himself as a ghost cultivator. The Yin-Nether ghost energy here did not have much effect on him.
The entire underground cave was extremely wide, and they had no problem walking side by side, and the width became wider as they went down. Although there was no light in the cave, all the people present were Yuanying cultivators. With a little divine consciousness, they could see the surrounding situation clearly.
I don’t know if it was because the dwarf demons came too many times and were more familiar with the situation in the underground demon cave, so they took them to avoid the demon corpses inside, or if those demon corpses stayed deep in the underground cave. For the first period of time, they were very smooth and did not encounter any abnormalities.
After they went several dozen miles underground, a golden-armored demon corpse suddenly jumped out at a bend. The strength of the golden-armored demon corpse was equivalent to that of a Jindan cultivator, but in the eyes of these Yuanying cultivators, it was not worth mentioning at all. The group had discovered the golden-armored demon corpse hiding in the dark early. When it attacked, Ruan Zhenjun, who was walking in the front, just waved his palm lightly, and the golden-armored demon corpse exploded directly, turning into corpse pieces on the ground without causing any interference.
However, the death of the golden-armored demon corpse seemed to alarm the other demon corpses, and the underground cave gradually became lively. Soon, dozens of demon corpses rushed towards them. There were more than a dozen golden-armored demon corpses, and the rest were almost all silver-armored demon corpses. So many demon corpses were dispatched at the same time, and the momentum was extremely shocking. However, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and the people behind did not even need to take action. The dwarf demons in front easily solved them.
Their thunderous means seemed to have frightened the remaining demon corpses. After this group of demon corpses were dealt with, no more demon corpses dared to attack them. However, they could clearly feel that the underground demon cave was not peaceful, and there were still many demon corpses hiding in the dark to monitor them.
The leader, Ruan Zhenjun, could not help but frowned. They had originally discussed that before entering the forbidden area of the underground demon cave, they would take the opportunity to kill some low-level demon corpses first, so as to avoid these low-level demon corpses coming out to interfere when they entered the forbidden area to fight with those high-level demon corpses. Unexpectedly, these demon corpses were not very intelligent but extremely cunning. After just a wave of tests, they stopped attacking them. At the same time, facing the siege of high-level demon corpses and a large number of low-level demon corpses, I am afraid that many variables will arise out of thin air.
They tried to track the demon corpses hiding in the dark, but the effect was minimal. After all, this was the demon corpses' home ground. They were very familiar with the surrounding situation and could easily avoid the tracking of Ruan Zhenjun and others, causing them to waste their efforts. Of course, not all demon corpses can escape tracking. Occasionally, some unlucky ones will be killed by them, but the number is too small, which is not proportional to the time they spend, so they can only give up temporarily.
The purpose of their group entering this underground demon cave is to find the Wanling Grass, not to clear out the demon corpses. These low-level demon corpses are unwilling to come and die, and they don’t have the time to keep entangled here. They can only wait until they enter the forbidden area of the underground demon cave and then find a way to deal with them slowly.
The group continued to move forward, and in a blink of an eye, they were several dozen miles deep. At this time, they had already gone hundreds of miles underground, but they had not yet reached the bottom of the Demon Cave. According to Ruan Zhenjun, this place was only more than 20 miles away from the Demon Cave Forbidden Land. A few miles further ahead, they might encounter Yuanying Demon Corpses. They had almost always observed the situation nearby during the previous few times they came down, and did not dare to go deeper.
As Ruan Zhenjun said, this place was not far from the Demon Cave Forbidden Land. Those demon corpses seemed to know that they had nowhere to retreat. They could clearly feel that the demon corpses hiding in the dark were a little restless, and the number of demon corpses was increasing, as if they were ready to fight them desperately.
Sure enough, they walked less than three miles forward, and a large group of demon corpses suddenly rushed towards them. A rough count showed that there were thousands of them. The leading ones were some powerful gold-armored demon corpses, followed by groups of silver-armored demon corpses and copper-armored demon corpses. Even at the end of the team, there was a Yuanying-level demon corpse supervising the battle. Judging from this posture, they were ready to defeat them by numbers.
