#277 - Kill the Dark Snake and harvest the demon body

Chapter 277: Eliminating the Nether Serpent and Harvesting the Demon Carcass

The moment the opponent attacked, the black-robed doppelganger had already activated the system's curse function.

"System, expend one billion years of lifespan to curse this old man!"

The opponent didn't reveal their identity, but that didn't matter. The target was right in front of him, allowing for precise targeting.

"Hmm?"

Ming Tuo's expression suddenly changed drastically, feeling enveloped by an unspeakable malice. In his primordial spirit, a terrifying black flame suddenly blazed.

This flame wasn't like Ming Yan's black flames, but a flame filled with karma, directly affecting the primordial spirit with unparalleled power!

His primordial spirit severely injured, Ming Tuo's face instantly turned as pale as gold paper. The giant serpent hanging down from the air suddenly collapsed, reverting back into the serpent-headed staff and falling straight down.

Ming Tuo himself clutched his chest, spitting out trickles of blood.

"How is this possible? What did you do to me!"

Fear filled Ming Tuo's eyes, his face full of disbelief.

He was certain that the black-robed man had attacked, but he had no idea when or how the attack happened. He hadn't even detected the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy.

This terrifying curse flame seemed to be burning continuously, using his primordial spirit as fuel. Even with his late-stage Integration Realm spiritual power, he couldn't suppress it, and he let out a terribly painful scream.

Ming Yan beside him was also frightened.

What was going on?

Why did the ancestor suddenly weaken?

Qing Mu Xuan and Yu Fei were overjoyed.

As expected of the Alliance Leader, even the late-stage Integration Realm Nether Serpent Ancestor was so vulnerable before him. He didn't even bother to lift a finger; just a glance made the opponent wish they were dead.

The black-robed doppelganger threw a curse worth several hundred million years of lifespan at Ming Yan and turned his head to look at Qing Mu Xuan.

Seeing that both of them were in immense pain and their surrounding spiritual power had become incredibly thin and chaotic, Qing Mu Xuan's confidence soared. She knew that the Alliance Leader was giving her a chance to perform, and she nodded excitedly.

Whoosh!

A giant cyan eagle formed in mid-air, swooping down towards the two. Its feathers transformed into countless cyan blades, raining down on them like a storm.

As demons, many parts of their bodies could be used as items equivalent to magical treasures, and their power was even no less than that of magical treasures.

Like Qing Mu Xuan, each of her cyan feathers was equivalent to a sixth-order flying sword, incomparably sharp. Even if destroyed, they could be regenerated with spiritual power in a short amount of time. This was the terrifying aspect of demons.

Inside the city, many people watched the earth-shattering battle from the formation where countless cultivators floated, their faces filled with excitement and elation as they watched the City Lord display her divine power.

The black-robed doppelganger left the battlefield to Qing Mu Xuan for two reasons: first, to save lifespan and obtain the complete demon carcasses of Ming Yan and Ming Tuo; and second, to help Qing Mu Xuan establish prestige.

After all, Qing Mu Xuan was currently the strongest combat force of the Evergreen Alliance in the Chaotic Region. Raising her prestige would greatly benefit the unification of the Chaotic Region in the future.

"City Lord Qing is simply too powerful! Even the Nether Serpent Clan's ancestor is being suppressed and beaten!"

"With City Lord Qing here, the Nether Serpent Clan's arrival is no different from seeking death! Kill him, destroy the Nether Serpent Clan!"

"The Nether Serpent Clan has been oppressing other demons in the Chaotic Region for years. Killing them isn't enough to appease the demon's resentment!"

"Isn't that wrong? As far as I know, City Lord Qing is only in the mid-stage Integration Realm, but the Nether Serpent Ancestor is in the late-stage Integration Realm. The two are not on the same level at all. How could she be suppressing him? Racial suppression isn't that terrifying, right?"

"You didn't see it, but I did! The Alliance Leader attacked first, severely injuring the Nether Serpent Ancestor, and then allowed City Lord Qing to attack!"

"Is that black-robed senior the Alliance Leader? But I didn't even see the Alliance Leader attack?"

"If you could see the Alliance Leader's attack, would he still be the Alliance Leader? Not to mention a mere late-stage Integration Realm cultivator, even a Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivator or even a celestial being would have to kneel and call him grandfather in front of the Alliance Leader!"

"…Is the Alliance Leader really that terrifying!"

There were many cultivators from the Evergreen Alliance in Qinglin City. Although Qinglin City had been unified and joined the Evergreen Alliance, the black-robed doppelganger had never publicly revealed himself. Currently, only the original subordinates of the Evergreen Alliance and the Moon Fox Clan knew the black-robed doppelganger's identity.

The battle between these Integration Realm cultivators was like the apocalypse descending. The earth outside the city was torn apart, and countless cyan feathers fell, piercing through the earth and then shooting back again. With the blessing of the Qingling Xun Wind, the power of these cyan feathers increased again, charging back and forth, constantly tearing apart the demon carcasses of Ming Yan and Ming Tuo.

Ming Yan and Ming Tuo were already in unbearable pain from the burning of the curse flames, and the spiritual power they could use became less and less. Coupled with Qing Mu Xuan's all-out assault, they seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

"Ancestor, save me—"

Ming Yan howled in pain, already transforming into his true form, but faint black flames were already piercing out from inside his serpent body, and he was covered in wounds scraped by the cyan feathers.

He was already no match for Qing Mu Xuan, and now he was suppressed by the curse flames, reaching the brink of death.

Ming Tuo also had a face full of狰狞 pain. Looking at Qing Mu Xuan, who had a face full of killing intent, and the black-robed doppelganger, who was calm and collected, his heart grew colder and colder.

Who exactly was this guy in the black robe?

Could he really be a celestial being?!

Thinking of this, his heart was already full of despair, and he no longer had any thoughts of resistance. His mind raced, and he suddenly roared, his huge serpent tail hooking onto Ming Yan next to him. He threw Ming Yan towards Qing Mu Xuan and the black-robed doppelganger with all his might, while he himself tried his best to escape into the distance.

"Ancestor—"

Ming Yan let out a desperate and angry howl. He never expected that his own ancestor would abandon him as a shield and escape.

His heart was full of regret. If he had known this would happen, he would have just returned to the clan and called for the ancestor. Why did he bring him here, pushing him into the abyss as well?

"Chirp—"

Having learned from the previous experience, Qing Mu Xuan had been watching the two's movements. The moment Ming Tuo threw Ming Yan over, she spat out a Qingling Xun Wind to catch him, while her true form quickly chased after Ming Tuo.

The Soaring Nether Serpent, transformed from Ming Tuo, swam in the sky, but because he needed to divert most of his spiritual power to suppress the curse flames on his primordial spirit, his speed became slower and slower, and even his true form's innate divine power could not be used.

A loud eagle cry rang out overhead, and the sky-covering cyan giant eagle swooped down, a pair of giant claws grabbing down from the air, hooking onto Ming Tuo's serpent body and then slamming heavily into the ground.

Ming Tuo howled in pain, turning his head to bite fiercely, but Qing Mu Xuan dodged nimbly.

Boom!

Ming Tuo was slammed down from the high sky, and at the same time, countless cyan feathers pierced down, stirring up a sky full of sand.

When the smoke cleared, Ming Tuo had already lost his breath. His primordial spirit was burned to ashes by the curse flames, and his true form was nailed to the earth by countless cyan feathers.

Nether Serpent Ancestor Ming Tuo, dead!
