Immortal Path Space

Chapter 426: Poisonous Intent

Liu Changsheng's unusual presence had caught the attention of nearby Demonic Beasts. By now, around six of the third-tier Demonic Beasts had hurried over, forming a circle around the scene.

Little Peng, at this moment, was engaged in animated conversation with these third-tier Demonic Beasts, as if they were long-lost brothers. The atmosphere was incredibly lively.

"Little Peng, my friend, I'm not familiar with the location of your cave mansion. I don't recall ever seeing it before," a Qing Fox inquired.

"I reside to the west from here, at a place called Zixu Mountain. On the mountain, there is a cave known as Wuyou Cave, and that's where my cave mansion is located," Little Peng replied.

After advancing in cultivation and receiving guidance from Wang Hong, Little Peng's intelligence had greatly improved. As a result, interacting with these Demonic Beasts was not too challenging for him.

"Come, let's have a drink! Today, meeting fellow cultivators like all of you is a stroke of luck for Little Peng," he raised his glass and changed the subject, then turned to Wang Hong, urging him, "Hurry up and come pour the wine!"

Wang Hong, clutching a jug of wine, timidly filled the Demonic Beasts' cups.

While Wang Hong was pouring the wine, a Bear Demon took advantage of the moment to pinch Wang Hong and a wicked gleam appeared in its eyes.

"Little Peng, my friend, look at us just drinking wine, but there's no suitable snack to go with it. How about we slaughter your human pet and roast it for a tasty side dish? Based on my years of experience, I believe it would taste quite good, with plenty of chewiness," the Bear Demon suggested, sticking out its tongue and licking its lips, revealing sharp white teeth.

Hearing this, Little Peng was taken aback, nearly dropping the wine glass he held between his wings. He hurriedly responded, "I apologize, Bear Brother. My human pet has other uses, and I cannot use it as a side dish for you today."

"A mere Foundation Building stage human pet, and you still can't bear to part with it, Little Peng?" the Bear Demon, with its third-tier top-notch cultivation level, squinted its eyes in displeasure.

Among the Demonic Beasts present, it was the most powerful, and there were not many who would dare challenge it in this region. The Demonic Beast before it had recently advanced in cultivation and would be easy to defeat.

At their level of cultivation, the differences in strength between early-stage, mid-stage, and late-stage within the same tier of cultivators were vast.

"It's not that I can't bear to, but it has other uses. Please understand," Little Peng said, receiving instructions from Wang Hong not to provoke a conflict at this moment.

Liu Changsheng's Foundation Building was not yet complete, and it was not wise to create unnecessary complications at this time.

"We've always regarded you as a brother, Little Peng. We didn't expect you to be so attached to a mere human pet," another Demonic Beast chimed in.

These Demonic Beasts were familiar with each other, as they all resided in the vicinity. When a newcomer like Little Peng arrived, they naturally wanted to test him.

The Demon Clan was not known for being peaceful; on the contrary, it could be quite savage and cruel. Moreover, they were quite interested in Human Clan cultivators who were currently at the Core stage. A Golden Core cultivator from the Human Clan was a valuable delicacy for them.

If possible, they wouldn't mind teaming up to keep Little Peng here.

"We appreciate your respect, my esteemed brothers. Apart from these two human pets, I've actually brought quite a few delicacies for all of you to enjoy," Little Peng said in a conciliatory tone. He then turned to Wang Hong and said, "Hurry up and bring out all the delicacies I've been hoarding, or I might just roast you and serve you as a dish."Wang Hong, while secretly communicating with Little Peng, skillfully presented various delicacies. Due to their unique connection, their Divine Sense communication was exceptionally discreet and difficult for ordinary individuals to detect.

At this moment, the unusual aura emanating from Liu Changsheng's Core was nearing its conclusion, and the vortex formed by the surrounding Spirit Qi was rapidly pouring into Liu Changsheng's body.

Within his dantian, a golden Golden Core slowly rotated, absorbing the surging Spirit Qi. The shape of the Golden Core gradually stabilized.

Not far away, a group of third-tier Demonic Beasts was enjoying their drinks and appeared to be in high spirits. Wang Hong, being treated as a pet, was diligently attending to their needs.

These Demonic Beasts had been indulging themselves with food and drink for quite some time, consuming countless Spiritual Objects.

However, at this moment, the Demonic Beast with the highest cultivation level, the Bear Demon, suddenly sensed something was amiss. It slapped its paw on the table, knocking over all the food and drinks in front of it.

"How dare you attempt treachery against me!"

With a thunderous shout from the Bear Demon, the other Demonic Beasts were also jolted awake. Only now did they realize that they had been poisoned.

Within their demon cores, a black Spiritual Energy had emerged, vigorously devouring the demonic power within.

Enraged, the six Demonic Beasts leaped to their feet and lunged toward Little Peng.

Facing six Demonic Beasts, some of them even stronger than him, Little Peng dared not confront them head-on. He had already prepared for this situation and swiftly retreated.

Wang Hong also moved with agility, maintaining a distance from these Demonic Beasts.

As the six Demonic Beasts charged toward them in a fit of anger, a swarm of black insects suddenly flew out from Wang Hong's sleeve.

The Demonic Beasts couldn't identify these peculiar creatures. They resembled neither bees nor beasts. These insects had wings and stingers like Spirit Bees, but their mouthparts featured two pairs of teeth found only in Demonic Beasts. They also had a fine layer of scales on their bodies.

In an instant, the swarm of Poisonous Bees reached them. The six Demonic Beasts swatted their claws or wings at the approaching Poisonous Bees in an attempt to drive them away.

Many Poisonous Bees were killed in the process, and their lifeless bodies quickly littered the ground. However, with over ten thousand Poisonous Bees in the swarm, they were agile in flight and couldn't be eliminated easily.

The Poisonous Bees that landed on the Demonic Beasts began to bite and gradually created small wounds on their skin.

Seemingly ineffective against the Poisonous Bees, the Demonic Beasts charged directly at Wang Hong and Little Peng.

Wang Hong adjusted the tactics of the Poisonous Bees. Since their numbers were limited, it was challenging to deal with six third-tier Demonic Beasts simultaneously. He directed the Poisonous Bees to focus their attacks on two of the Demonic Beasts.

The two Demonic Beasts were soon covered in Poisonous Bees. These Poisonous Bees, after their mutation, had more than just stingers as a means of attack. They now also possessed tusks, which they used to tear at the Demonic Beasts' flesh and then consumed the torn flesh.

The two Demonic Beasts, overwhelmed by the swarm of Poisonous Bees, were finally held back. Meanwhile, the remaining four third-tier Demonic Beasts accelerated their charge toward Wang Hong.

Wang Hong didn't dare to confront these Demonic Beasts head-on, especially since they outnumbered him. He quickly turned and fled, leaving Little Peng to deal with the four pursuing Demonic Beasts.

Facing four Demonic Beasts of the same tier, Little Peng was not too afraid. He displayed agility and skill in combat, putting up a formidable fight.

These four Demonic Beasts had already been poisoned earlier, and now, in the midst of the intense battle, the toxins within their bodies were rapidly spreading.

Simultaneously, the two Demonic Beasts surrounded by Poisonous Bees were being gnawed at relentlessly, revealing their bony skeletons as they suffered.
