Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1084A – Come As Agreed

Old Fox alone could barely resist the attacks of the red-eye demon leader. But with Shadowless Demon added in, the situation was completely different.

If one condensed a natal demon seed outline, this was a strength that surpassed the limits of a Demon Commander’s power. But without reaching the Demon King boundary, it was impossible to obtain the approval of the abyss’ will.

Strictly speaking, the red-eye demon leader was on the same level as Old Fox and Shadowless Demon – they were all at the Demon Commander level. Even if they still couldn’t win while fighting two against one, dragging out the battle and keeping him entangled was easy.

And of the three of them, the strongest was Black Astral. Although there was still a Demon Commander level brain-eating lizard, this wasn’t too great of a problem for him.

During the events at Great Deer City, in order to maintain the abyssal titan bloodline, Feature had once extracted Black Astral’s bloodline and then used Qin Yu to return it to him later.

After being broken down and reformed, the difficult problem that Black Astral had suffered for all these years of his bloodline constantly withering away was resolved. Good preparations were the key to success, and with his accumulations already gathered his strength took another step further, touching the peak of the Demon Commander boundary.

He was just a step away from the Abyssal Demon King realm.

With this strength, in addition to the incomparably formidable three-headed hellhound bloodline he possessed, the power he could erupt with was terrifying.

Bang –

The net of demonic energy that imprisoned him loudly shattered. Then, an earth-shaking roar resounded between the heavens and earth.

A three-headed hellhound phantom directly condensed into existence. Its three heads and six eyes locked onto the brain-eating lizard and rushed forward.

This natal demon seed outline…even if it was forcibly condensed using abyssal energy, for a short period of time it still had strength comparable to a Demon Commander.

In the blink of an eye, it clashed with the brain-eating lizard.

Then, Black Astral’s gaze locked onto Spring Breeze 13th Madame and the over a hundred red-eye demons beside her.

He lifted a hand and thrust forward!

Bang –

Terrifying demonic energy transformed into a large hand, bringing with it a destructive aura that loudly crashed down. With a loud bang, a thousand foot gulf appeared, burying everyone caught within.

The smell of blood filled the air. This strike alone killed nearly everyone. The small number that survived were still badly wounded. They groaned in pain, despair and fear in their blood red eyes.

Demon Commander!

This was the terrifying power of a Demon Commander. They could mobilize abyssal demon energy just by raising their hands, and possessed enough might to shatter mountains and sever rivers.

With this strike, Black Astral didn’t continue attacking. He looked over to where his natal demon seed outline was fighting with the brain-eating lizard.

Soon, with a howl of pain, the lizard’s entire head was snapped off and pulled from its neck. Blood spurted out, raining down from the skies like a massive fountain.

Bang –

The brain-eating lizard’s corpse fell to the ground!

The red-eye demon leader who was being held back by Old Fox and Shadowless revealed a look of anger and dread. He clenched his teeth and roared out loud, instantly erupting with a strength that surpassed his limits.

Bang –

Bang –

Old Fox and Shadowless Demon were sent flying away.

In the next moment, the red-eye demon leader turned tail and fled. And in order to strive for more time, he exploded his natal demon seed outline without hesitation.

Even if this demon seed outline hadn’t fully consolidated yet, it still inflicted a tremendous backlash on him.

His bloodline would become despondent and spiritless. Without at least ten years, he would never return to his peak condition. It might even affect his chances of breaking into the Demon King realm.

It was cliché, but it still had to be said. Compared to his life, nothing else mattered!

If he didn’t run away, he would certainly die here.

It was true that he was a Demon Commander level red-eye demon and he was also incredibly strong, far surpassing ordinary Demon Commanders. But right now he was facing three Demon Commanders, and one of them was no weaker than he was.

If he didn’t flee now, once he was surrounded by these three people, all that remained would be for him to die.

“This is bad…” The red-eye demon leader’s heart shrank. Then, he heard a humming in his ears as his field of vision fell into darkness.

A stabbing pain spread through his mind. It was like a rusty iron needle, maliciously stabbed through his skull and digging into his brain!

But the red-eye demon leader was indeed formidable. Even against this unexpected attack, he managed to regain control over his body in less than a breath of time.

This was already an astonishingly fast speed. But at the Demon Commander level, this slight delay was enough to determine life and death.

“No!”

With a cry of unwillingness, the red-eye demon leader’s head shot up into the skies. Then, his four limbs were cut off without hesitation.

Puff –

His chest blew apart. Shadowless Demon passed through him like a true shadow, grabbing his still-beating heart in one hand.

The one who played a crucial role at this vital moment, resulting in the red-eye demon leader’s death, was certainly Qin Yu.

Strictly speaking, Blue Wave had been wrong. There were actually at least four Demon Commander level forces around Feature.

Because if Qin Yu didn’t summon the titan true body, he was still at the Demon Commander level. But if he did use it…he could be considered around ten of them?

….

In an underground palace built from piles of huge stones stacked on top of each other, massive bronze torches burnt. But, they didn’t give off the slightest feeling of light or warmth. On the contrary, they made the atmosphere feel even darker and gloomier.

An altar stood at the center of the palace. It wasn’t large, but it was built with great care and attention.

Disregarding all else, just the materials it was constructed from were the most precious top grade demon crystals. Each piece was extremely valuable.

This kind of demon crystal had a hard texture, and if too much force was used on it, it would be reduced to powder.

So using top grade demon crystals and carving them into such complex patterns while keeping them intact was in itself a supremely difficult task.

A figure sat cross-legged on the altar. His waist was tall and straight. Even though he simply sat there, he felt like a mountain rising straight up from the ground and piercing into the clouds, where not even a catastrophe could move him a single inch.

This was an extremely heavy and dignified momentum – or to be more exact, it came from a person who held true power, a superior being with great strength!

What was beyond expectations was that this demon was surprisingly young. His nose was sharp and slanted and his eyebrows were like slanted swords. It was enough to cause countless demon women to fall in love with him. In particular, when combined with his imposing momentum, saying that he was handsome to the point of leaving one gobsmacked and unable to conceal their happiness was also an appropriate comment.

It was just that right now, this tall and young demon youth seemed to have encountered some kind of difficult problem. His eyebrows were furrowed together, and in that minor fold there was some respectful earnestness.

After a long time, the demon man opened his eyes, a trace of anger revealed in his pupils. But soon he composed himself, as if he were an ancient well that never saw a single wave.

“As I thought, I still cannot lock onto his position…this fellow is skilled at hiding his aura…I just don’t know what happened for him to personally take action…does he not know the consequences if his existence is exposed…I hope there isn’t an accident…”

On the altar, the demon man muttered beneath his breath. But at this time his complexion changed.

Without any time to react, he looked as if he had been struck by a heavy blow. He spat out a mouthful of blood. As he did, his entire body shivered and blood seeped out from his ears and eyes.

A long time passed. It was unknown how much blood this demon shed, but the altar beneath him was covered in blood.

The rich smell of blood wafted through the air. With loud cracking sounds, this amazingly expensive altar that was equally as difficult to construct, suddenly had cracks running through its surface. It was now completely ruined and could no longer be used.

“He died…he actually died…I spent enormous effort…even delaying the cultivation of my main body for this…but this is the result in the end…is it because I am too greedy…or is the abyss too harsh on me…?”

After every few words he would vomit out more blood. It could be seen that this demon was withstanding an even more terrifying wound within.

But what was strange was that as he vomited out mouthfuls of blood, his eyes grew increasingly bright and his dispirited aura began to rise at an astonishing speed.

“Ahhh!” He roared into the skies as terrifying fluctuations of demonic energy erupted from him like a volcano. The entire underground palace shook with it, and the incomparably thick rocks around him constantly disintegrated.

That body outside had been destroyed by others and years of hard work were wasted. But, this also freed him. He no longer needed to entangle himself with it, and thus the cultivation he diverted and lost could erupt once more.

Hou –

With a roar, a giant beast phantom appeared above his head. Although it was blurry, it released an aura that left one wallowing in despair.

…

A Demon Commander level red-eye demon was rare, and what happened to them after their death was shocking. The corpse of the red-eye demon leader and the heart that Shadowless Demon held in his hand both started to decompose, rapidly turning into traces of crimson blood energy that condensed into a sphere the size of a young child’s fist.

Feature waved her hand. The sphere flew into her hands. She grasped it and it vanished from sight. Then, with a bored expression she said, “The play has ended, hurry up and sweep the area clean. My belly is rumbling and I want to eat a good meal!”

Spring Breeze 13th Madame trembled. Because her dress was severely damaged and torn all over, large areas of smooth and white skin were revealed. She was curled up into a ball, outlining her perfect figure.

She originally thought that she was dead this time. No matter how she tried to show off her coquettish style, she couldn’t move Black Astral who was cleaning up the red-eye demons at all.

This fellow had a cold face and his actions were equally frigid. He walked through the pit he created with his own strike and whenever he saw someone gasping for breath, he casually thrust out a finger.

Then, with a hollow sound, terrifying demonic energy rushed out, grinding apart the surviving red-eye demons.

“Hold on!” Feature suddenly said.

Black Astral stopped and bowed, “Miss, what are your orders?”

“Killing them off so easily is just too meaningless. I have a better way.” Feature blinked her eyes, a smug look on her face.

Moments later, the red-eye demons that survived on the brink of death walked forward with Spring Breeze 13th Madame leading them. They carried an unconscious Blue Wave with them.

“Hey, remember what I said. Take care of that boy and don’t let him die so easily. Do you hear me?”

13th Madame shivered. She hurriedly nodded her head. With the remnant red-eye demons behind her, she ran away even quicker than before, soon vanishing without a trace.

“Tsk tsk, who said that red-eye demons were a bunch of brainless monsters similar to demon beasts? I think they are actually quite tactful.” Feature said with a strange expression.

Old Fox and Black Astral had helpless expressions. They thought that these people had somehow managed to retain some wisdom, so it was easier for them to judge the situation.

For instance, they had managed to preserve their little lives today. This must be good fortune they had been cultivating for an untold number of years. If they didn’t flee now, were they supposed to stand there and wait for death?

However, red-eye demons were an evil and degenerate existence. Why did the miss not kill them all?

There was also that Blue Wave. They had heard the name of Adversity Peak City’s City Lord before. He was indeed someone who couldn’t be provoked easily.

While there was no need for His Excellency Qin Yu and Miss Feature to dread him, it was always better to have less trouble than more.

Ah, they couldn’t figure it out, they really couldn’t figure it out.

But since Miss Feature had given the order, even if they were completely dumbfounded by it, they would still follow her without hesitation.
