Chapter 141: Two fists cannot fight against enemies on all sides

“Self-Detonation Demonic Pellet? No way?”

Spectating the show as he hid within a filthy corner, Wei Suo’s eyes swelled with disbelief.

A hole appeared to have been struck onto the ‘dog head’ of the Scarletwing Flame Devil, as it appeared to be tumbling around in agony within the magma pool. Yet from Wei Suo’s perspective, he could distinctly see that hole gradually mending itself. That signified that this mid tier level 6 big brother hadn’t reached the end of the line, but why was it toiling so disastrously? It had clearly been fighting like a ruffian, but why had it been degraded to a naive distracted youth?

As notions jolted through Wei Suo’s mind, he suddenly heard an ear-splitting explosion. The foremost green light screen had shattered and disintegrated, while the gigantic white ice flower and yellowish glow behind it was utterly reduced to nothingness; under the colliding waves of energy and black-dan flames.

In that instant, the faces of He Cuode’s and Old Freak Mo’s turned deathly white!

Everyone was exceedingly clear, how devastating the self-detonation demonic pellet of a mid-tier level 6 demonic beast was……

“Could it be Old Freak Feng’s Firespirit Ruby had perfectly struck against its vital part?”

Such a thought flashed through Old Freak Mo’s mind, but he wasn’t in time to retract his 32 white banners, as the black dan-pellet flames swarmed in. Under the scoffing explosions, the majority of his 32 Ghost Banners that he had forged painstakingly were incinerated.

As for the other cultivators, they were all scrambling to activate their strongest defensive artifacts on hand.

“Wakao! How enjoyable!”

The green-gowned Old Man cried out excitedly, while Wei Suo’s eyes swelled concurrently; as 3 consecutive divine-light light screens and 5 artifact shields floated in front of those cultivators…….

The smallest of the 5 artifact shields appeared round, and was barely half the size of a body. The largest one was not inferior to Wei Suo’s Scarlet-shell shield and was immensely thick.

Amongst the aura released by those 5 artifact shields, 4 of them were true spirit-class artifact shields!

These Heavenly Circuit Stage level 5 cultivators were indeed a class different from other ordinary cultivators.

“Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!”

Consecutive eruptions resounded, as the 3 divine-light light screens that evidently surpassed a half-spirit class strength shattered. Instead, after 3 of the artifact shields fell in rapid successions as they guarded the 7 cultivators, the final 2 finally managed to halt the explosive torrential onslaught of the dan-pellet flames.

Though He Cuode’s and Old Freak Mo’s group were extremely ugly to behold, they revealed a joyous countenance as they observed this scene, as though they had survived by the skin of one’s teeth……

However, the highest cultivation He Cuode’s eyes instantly inflated like a toad with disbelief. Yet another black demon dan-pellet had been regurgitated out from the Scarletwing Flame Devil.

“How can that be!” Witnessing this scene, even Wei Suo was suspecting his own eyes and his entire life. Because everyone present knew, that apart from several few unique demonic beasts like the Twin-headed Canine, other demonic beasts only possessed a single demonic dan-pellet.

“A bogus dan-pellet!” Instead, the green-gowned Old Man was laughing heartily while beaming with excitement. “Wonderful! A true surprise, it actually congealed a bogus dan-pellet. It seems like this Scarletwing Flame Devil is nearing the ranks of an elder beast. A spectacular performance is upon us.”

“Pi! Pi! Pa! Pa!”

Under the horrified gazes of those cultivators, the remaining two spirit class artifact shields were drenched with the dan-pellet flames of the authentic demonic dan-pellet…….

The authentic dan-pellet flames resembled black oil, and its menace vastly outstripped the flames of the bogus dan-pellet.

Without offering a single shred of resistance, the two true spirit class artifact shields were completely melted away.

Unluckily standing behind the two melting artifact shields, the black dan-pellet flames spilled against Tie Lingzi who was unable to dodge in time. A Heavenly Circuit Stage level 5 cultivator who could easily squash an existence like Wei Suo, could only issue a bitter scream before transforming into combusting charcoal. Peng! He slumped to the ground.

Though the artifact robe on Tie Lingzi appeared dazzlingly gorgeous, it absolutely couldn’t be compared to the artifact robe covering the bodily remains at the corner.

After being roasted by the black dan-pellet flames, it was directly incinerated as it fell to the ground. By now, Tie Lingzi’s body was evaporated into black ashes…….

“I need some time to activate my Firespirit Ruby, stall its demonic dan-pellet for me!”

Wrapped in an enormous cyan wind pillar Old Freak Mo yelled out piercingly with a downcast expression.

“Chi!”

While he yelled out, Granny Jin who had been standing beside Tie Lingzi had been terrified to the state of peeing her pants. Stretching out and pulling out a Golden Pheonix-pin looking artifact from her hair, it transformed into a streak of gold as it smashed against the head of the Scarletwing Flame Devil.

Instantaneously, a deep crack was struck onto the cheek of the Scarletwing Flame Devil.

Enduring the pain, the Scarletwing Flame Devil swiftly retrieved its true demonic dan-pellet; before it gusted out with dan-pellet flames which torched the Golden Pheonix-pin artifact into a slag.

Only exposing its head from the surface, in the end, its head was the one that received the barrages of assaults. Hence, the Scarletwing Flame Devil snarled thunderously from the Earthflame Magma pool, as its entire body frame emerged out……..

Evidently, this mid-tier level 6 big brother did not rely only on its dan-pellet flames. Concurrently, while its body emerged, regiments of fire clouds began condensing at the cavern ceiling; before a rain of fire came pouring down from the cavern ceiling.

Watching such an abnormally treacherous level of battling, Wei Suo was shaken at the corner. All these was too much for his eyes to take in.

“Left, left. A defense-offense hybrid spirit class artifact. A Heaven’s First Sect elite disciple is truly an elite disciple, to actually possess such a suppressing case object.”

“Hurry take a look! A medium grade spirit class water elemental artifact!”

“HAHA, fight! Fight it out!”

Meanwhile, while Wei Suo was rendered speechless, the Old Man was spectating with unmatched excitement. He was akin to a violent gale that desired a bull blown carnage, and didn’t even care about being discovered by those cultivators…….

At present, to the left of Old Freak Feng, stood the young Heaven’s First Sect disciple; the one with the lowest cultivation, and the one most neglected amongst the crowd. In this instant, he was instead the most eye-grabbing individual, as he summoned out a golden palm-sized paper.

As true energy was channelled in unendingly, golden brilliance incessantly emanated out from the golden paper; forming into a massive “天” character before him.

That golden condensed “天” character appeared as heavy as ten thousand catties, as it repeatedly revolved and blocked his front; before slowly pressurizing towards the Earthflame Magma pool. Its tremendous pressure even enveloped Wei Suo with a suffocating sensation.

Meanwhile to the right of Old Freak Feng, a sullen looking He Cuode had summoned out a blue pearl, where astonishing water spirit energy swirled out from the pearl. In a flash, it congealed around Old Freak Feng and him into a water shield with a might that surpassed the spirit class. Moreover, water spirit energy was still incessantly discharging out from the blue pearl…….

Since even the green-gowned Old Man described this as a medium grade spirit class artifact, it would definitely be impressive.

“Chi!”

Under the total infusion of Old Freak Feng’s energy, that Firespirit Ruby in his hand was finally activated again. With a flickering red glow, it bored through the forehead of the Scarletwing Flame Devil again; once again penetrating in a cavity.

“Boom!”

A black demonic dan-pellet flared out again, as it flooded out with waves of black dan-pellet flames.

As the dan-pellet flames surged past the “天” character of the Heaven’s First Sect disciple, that character was roasted and vaporized away. Instead, when the dan-pellet flames struck against He Cuode’s mid-grade spirit class water shield, it failed to combust. He Cuode once again unleashed his gigantic ice flowers, which immediately sank into a deadlock against the demonic dan-pellet of the Scarletwing Flame Devil.

“It is finished. A formidable hero cannot defy opponents on four sides. That Scarletwing Flame devil is finished.” Observing the demonic dan-pellet being locked down by the Heaven’s First Sect disciple and He Cuode, the green-gowned Old Man mumbled dispiritedly.

Indeed, seizing this opportunity, two streaks of cyan and white beams shot from Dayu Kuangsheng’s and Old Freak Mo’s hands. They volleyed against the chest of the Scarletwing Flame Devil, beating the Scarletwing Flame Devil to stagger several steps back.

Soon after, yet another ‘chi’ sound resounded out. Old Freak Feng once again activated his Firespirit Ruby, as it smashed out another cavity on the left cheek of the Scarletwing Flame Devil.

Though the dan-pellet flames of the Scarletwing Flame Devil were domineering, it had met its existential bane – the Firespirit Ruby that didn’t fear it…….

“Careful! It is truly going to self-detonate his demonic dan-pellet this time!”

He Cuode’s expression sank drastically, as he subconsciously withdrew backwards. Hovering in midair, that true demonic dan-pellet was actually emitting out faint black-red radiance.

“Su!” But at this moment, a chilliness overwhelmed the entire cave. A white pearl had been shot out from Granny Jin’s hand, which had consumed and devoured the fire spirit energy in the surroundings; finally intending to consume the self-detonating demonic dan-pellet of the Scarletwing Flame Devil.

A shocking chilling energy erupted out, as a layer of frost condensed onto the entire head of the Scarletwing Flame Devil.

“Old freak Mo!”

Concurrently while she unleashed that white pearl, Granny Jin issued a hiss. Reacting to it, Old freak Mo brandished his hand, as 6 white beams pierced into the frost and impaled the head of the Scarletwing Flame Devil.

Those 6 white beams were actually bone spurs that were carved fully with talismanic symbols!

Before the frost could melt on the Scarletwing Flame Devil’s head, Old Freak Mo spouted the one ‘blow’!

“Boom!”

The 6 strands of bone spurs suddenly exploded intensely, as it blew half of the brains of that Scarletwing Flame Devil.

“Success!”

The youngest Heaven’s FirstSsect disciple exclaimed with delight upon seeing this scene.

Simultaneously, Old freak Mo, Granny Jin and Old freak Feng huddled together as they cast glances at He Cuode and gang; as though viewing their nemesis.

If Tie Lingzi hadn’t perished, the four of them could still battle evenly with He Cuode’s gang of three. But with Tie Lingzi dead, a head on confrontation would definitely result in an utterly disadvantageous position.

Now that the Scarletwing Flame Devil had been settled, this question naturally floated to their minds.

“Don’t worry, this one is a man of his words. This Scarletwing Flame Devil may not be dead yet, we must prevent any unnecessary variance.” He Cuode gazed at the trio as he smiled gently. “If the few seats aren’t assured by my words, you can refrain from acting now and instead focus on defence. We’ll take after I finish off this Scarletwing Flame Devil.”

While he speak, He Cuode glanced towards Dayu Kwangsheng and that Heaven’s First Sect disciple, before concentrating towards the blue pearl before him. Visibly seen, that water shield astoundingly transformed into a water blade, as it chopped down incessantly against the other half of the Scarletwing Flame Devil’s brains.

Without sufficient support of true energy, the defence of that Scarletwing Flame Devil had plunged substantially. With the beheading water blades, its remaining brains was directly mutilated.
