Hell Emperor.

Chapter 259 Xia Wei - Becoming a Demon
"how so……"

Seeing the miserable condition of everyone in the camp, Zhang Long was horrified and his body was shaking.

A strong fishy smell was constantly drilling into his nostrils. Even though he had experienced the baptism of battle on the battlefield, he had rarely seen such a tragic scene. The entire camp had been brutally massacred and no one survived.

Looking around, no one was spared. Many people were torn apart alive, and no one was intact. What kind of cruel demon could do such a horrifying thing? Could it be that the demon king attacked, or the Goguryeo people attacked?
"Oh no, my son and my wife..."

Zhang Long's pupils shrank, and he began to feel a little uneasy. A strong sense of uneasiness enveloped his heart. The situation he least wanted to happen finally happened.

He set off in a hurry. His third-level immortal realm allowed him to display extraordinary speed. The tragic scene of rivers of blood along the way made him even more distressed. None of his subordinates and confidants could escape this disaster. All that was left for him were cold remains.

When he returned to the main tent, he saw a young girl who had been waiting there for a long time.

The girl gnashed her teeth, her face was hideous, her pretty face was covered in blood, and she let out angry growls from time to time. The two pigtails behind her head kept trembling because of her rapid breathing. There was a hint of madness in the depths of her eyes, like an uncontrollable wild animal who only knew how to kill and destroy endlessly.

"It's you... the purple-eyed demon!"

Zhang Long was furious. It turned out that the culprit behind the massacre in the camp was this purple-eyed monster!

"Where is my family?!"

The only answer Zhang Long got was a sharp and piercing roar!

Seeing Zhang Long's return, Xia Wei could no longer suppress the anger in her heart. Her sharp pupils suddenly turned purple, like two burning stars, containing unimaginable power, enough to burn through all obstacles ahead.

"Your family? Are you talking about the baby dragon?" Zhang Long was stunned and asked.

"Exactly! I searched the entire camp and killed everyone here, but I couldn't find her. You must have hidden her! Where is she?"

Xia Wei stomped her feet violently, and the huge force contained in her stomped caused the earth to shake. The entire Wanglong Peak was shaking violently under her anger. Her roar was like a thunder that exploded out of nowhere and lasted for a long time.

Zhang Long was heartbroken after hearing this, but fearing that his family's life or death was unknown, he could only answer: "She ran away a long time ago. Even I don't know where she ran to."

"You're lying! Don't try to fool me! No one can fool me!" Xia Wei shook her head vigorously and screamed wildly. She refused to believe his words no matter what. There was murderous intent in her eyes. "It seems that you don't want your son's life!"

Zhang Long was shocked when he heard this and asked hurriedly, "My son and my wife, where are they now?"

Xia Wei took a few steps back and pulled out a young man with his hands tied behind his back from behind. The boy's eyes were red, his body was shaking, and his chest was heaving. He looked more like he was in pain than afraid.

"Father……"

Zhang Long was deeply distressed by his son's mournful cry. Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, and his teeth trembled slightly: "Where is your mother?"

"She's dead... killed by that purple-eyed monster."

His son's answer confirmed Zhang Long's thoughts. While he was extremely sad, he also felt even more resentful towards the purple-eyed monster in front of him.

Xia Wei's eyebrows were raised, her pupils were filled with murderous intent, and she roared in anger: "Don't you want your son's life? I'll give you one last chance. Tell me, where are my family members!?"

Zhang Long didn't know how to answer, and was filled with grief: "I've already told you, she ran away, I don't know her whereabouts!"

"You lie, you lie!"

Xia Wei bared her teeth, her delicate features wrinkled into a ball, boundless rage spread in her heart, she covered her head with one hand, looked up to the sky and howled, her tone even more sad and angry:

"So, Meng Junyao must have suffered at your hands. No, no... You are so bold that you dared to hurt my family. That was the last thing my master left for me! I will make you regret it and make you suffer forever!"

At the end of her words, Xia Wei's eyes flashed with magic light, and Zhang Long realized that something was wrong, but how could his speed compare with that of a laser?
The blazing magic light passed through, and Zhang Long watched helplessly as his son was pierced through the chest by the magic light, but he was powerless to do anything. There was no way to save it at all.

"you!"

Seeing his beloved son being murdered, Zhang Long was furious. He was determined to make the purple-eyed demon pay the price today: "No matter where you run to, I will kill you!"

Xia Wei's face turned ferocious, and a strong killing intent burst out, causing the surrounding wind to whistle. She roared without showing any weakness: "I must kill you! No one can destroy my family, no one can hurt my family, I will tear you into pieces and grind your bones to ash!"

As Xia Wei finished her words, endless spiritual power heard her call and rushed towards her. The dragon veins of the entire Wanglong Peak were aroused by the anger that almost ignited the nine heavens, and the spiritual power was like a tide, endless.

Wrapped in endless spiritual power, Xia Wei's face became serious. Even though her pretty face was covered with blood, she could not suppress her overwhelming majesty. The aura around her continued to rise, and with an unstoppable momentum, she stepped into the peak of the fifth level of the Immortal Realm. She was only one step away from ascending to the immortal position.

Zhang Long was not willing to be outdone after seeing the abnormality on Xia Wei's body. After all, his realm was there. Even if Xia Wei became an immortal, what would it matter? The strength corresponding to each realm among immortals was very different. Zhang Long's realm was at the third level, and his strength was very strong.

As Zhang Long unfolded his Dharma body, the golden-armored giant appeared in front of Xia Wei again, causing her to grit her teeth secretly.

In the initial battle, the golden-armored giant transformed by Zhang Long caused Xia Wei a lot of trouble.

No matter what skills people used to attack him, he could absorb all the power of the attack and use it for himself. People were unable to break through his defense at all and were instead suppressed by Zhang Long's power. Even Meng Junyao was captured.

Now, seeing the golden-armored giant appear again, with the lesson learned last time, Xia Wei's eyes also flashed with a fierce light: "Do you think I will be fooled again?"

After saying that, Xia Wei used her body skills, her figure was like a nimble fish. She did not confront the golden-armored giant head-on, but instead restrained him all the way, sometimes pulling him far away, and sometimes taking advantage of the inconvenience of the golden-armored giant turning, she passed under his feet, looking for the weakness of the Dharma body.

The movement that Xia Wei used was the Xuanying Step that Ye Jie taught her. The steps also incorporated the essence of the Liufeng Huixue Step, which made Xia Wei's figure even more erratic. However, speed happened to be the weak point of the golden-armored giant, so Xia Wei finally found an opening.

Unfortunately, the golden-armored giant had no obvious weaknesses, and no matter how hard Xia Wei searched, she found nothing.

Time passed by little by little. Facing Xia Wei who couldn't even touch the corner of her clothes, Zhang Long was obviously a little impatient. Seeing Xia Wei so agile, he suppressed the idea of ​​using magic and instead planned to consume more of Xia Wei's spiritual power. Xia Wei had not yet ascended to heaven, and her spiritual power was limited. She couldn't use the spiritual power of heaven and earth to the extreme like a real immortal, so as to achieve an inexhaustible state.

The strength between mortals and immortals is often extremely disparate. Immortals have the advantage of being invincible. As long as the battle continues like this, the advantage will definitely be on the immortals' side.

Zhang Long had a good plan in mind, but unfortunately, Xia Wei was no ordinary person either. With the blessing of multiple talents and magical powers, the spiritual power in Xia Wei's body was far superior to that of ordinary people. The higher the realm, the more obvious the power of the talents and magical powers became.

Xia Wei didn't dare to use her killing move rashly, as doing so would only transform all her spiritual power into the power of Zhang Long's Dharma body. She also didn't want to just leave like that, so the two of them ended up fighting.

The battle between immortals often lasts for several days, and even months or years are not uncommon. As long as they don't use magic weapons or Taoism to crush the opponent, they will often fall into a long-lasting consumption and the result will not be easily determined.

After a long night, the entire Wanglong Peak became a mess, but the two men did not feel tired at all. There was only a determination to fight to the death in their eyes. Unless one of them died completely, this battle would never end easily.

Xia Wei gritted her teeth secretly. After all, her realm was still a little lacking. The spiritual power in her body was gradually running out. If she continued to consume it like this, she would definitely be the loser.

This discovery made Xia Wei's heart tremble. She didn't know how to defeat the powerful enemy. Coincidentally, at this moment, the first ray of sunlight projected from the horizon allowed Xia Wei to find a clear way out.

When the sun rises in the east, that’s when the purple air comes from the east!
Xia Wei suddenly raised her head, with her delicate chin raised high. The sunlight seemed to have covered her with a layer of warm golden gauze. She gazed at the place where the sun rose, where thousands of feet of purple clouds gathered.

At sunrise, with the help of the purple air in the sky, the power of the Purple Demon Eye can be maximized, and this also gave Xia Wei a bold idea.

"Let me use the power of the purple energy from the east to avenge my family!"

Thinking of this, Xia Wei did not hesitate. Purple light shone brightly in her demonic pupils. The blazing demonic light that burned through everything burst out from her pupils once again.

Zhang Long was overjoyed by Xia Wei's move. His Dharma body was a little passive, and if the enemy did not attack him, it would be difficult for him to achieve any results.

This was known not only to Xia Wei but also to the Goguryeo people. As a result, for many years, even with him, a third-level general, in charge, the Huanglong Army was still trapped around Wanglong Peak.

After a night, Zhang Long had already lost his patience. He never expected that Xia Wei would suddenly launch an attack. How could he miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

The magic light hit the body of the golden-armored giant, but instead of piercing him, it injected a new energy into the golden-armored giant.

With the injection of that energy, the body of the golden-armored giant grew bigger and bigger, from the initial ten feet to twenty feet in a blink of an eye... thirty feet... and it was still growing endlessly, as if there would never be a moment of rest.

This situation was all within Xia Wei's expectations. The reason why she was defeated by the golden-armored giant last time was because she underestimated his Dharma body ability.

This time, the Purple Demonic Eye contained more than just Xia Wei's own power.

As Xia Wei exerted her best efforts, at sunrise, the misty purple air from the east passing by the horizon was also attracted by the Purple Demon Pupil and gathered towards Xia Wei's eyes. The addition of the purple air from the east made the magic light that passed through even more powerful and far more powerful than before.

It is no exaggeration to say that after Xia Wei borrowed the power of the purple air from the east, the power of the magic light far exceeded that of the original King Tang.

King Tang's Purple Demon Pupil was enough to threaten the dragon at the ghost fairy level. Now Xia Wei's Purple Demon Pupil was even more powerful than King Tang's, so it could naturally deal with fairies at a stronger level.

Xia Wei had beautiful thoughts in her mind, but the reality brought her a ruthless blow.

Under the bombardment of the blazing magic light, the body of the golden-armored giant remained upright and was not knocked down by the magic light at all. Instead, its expansion speed increased. Even though it exceeded one hundred feet in size, it had no intention of stopping and continued to expand. Now it has reached two hundred feet in size.

A huge shadow completely enveloped Xia Wei. The earth could not bear the weight of the golden-armored giant and shattered. The two-hundred-foot-tall giant gave Xia Wei a great sense of oppression.

Even Xia Wei had never seen such a terrifying opponent. After absorbing enough power, the strength of the golden-armored giant became more and more exaggerated. The third level was no longer enough to measure it. If it were not for the suppression of the Equality Array, Xia Wei dared not imagine how powerful he could be.

"How could this happen..." Xia Wei asked in a trembling voice, with cold sweat dripping down her forehead.

"Haha! You are finally dead this time. Thanks to you, I can display my Dharma body to an unprecedented level..." Feeling the power emerging from the Dharma body, Zhang Long roared to the sky and almost saw the end of Xia Wei's death.

Xia Wei gritted her teeth secretly. Suddenly, she noticed with her sharp eyes that the golden-armored giant's arms seemed unable to withstand the force and a few cracks appeared faintly.

"That is……"

Seeing the crack, Xia Wei's pupils shrank, and a hope of victory arose in her heart.

She didn't care, and tried her best to activate the Purple Demon Eye. The strong magic light bombarded Zhang Long non-stop, injecting new power into him. The suppression of the magic light made Zhang Long unable to move except for passively absorbing power, and he was unable to use magic.

"Don't you know that doing this will only make me stronger? Wait..."

Under the infusion of the magic light, Zhang Long was smiling at first, but in the end, even he noticed something strange, and a look of doubt and confusion appeared on his face.

Now, the golden-armored giant has grown to a size of three hundred feet, and his entire body has bloated to the limit. Even moving seems shaky, let alone fighting.

"What, my Dharma body actually..." Feeling the strangeness in his Dharma body, Zhang Long was horrified. No enemy had ever been able to force his Dharma body to this point.

After absorbing too much power, his Dharma body was like a balloon that had expanded to the extreme. Any external force was enough to burst it.

"Die!"

At this moment, Xia Wei's cold whisper came into his ears.

The next moment, there was a loud bang, and the golden-armored giant could no longer bear it, and was blown apart. Endless air waves washed past, and there was no one else around, only Xia Wei standing proudly.
