"I'm looking forward to it."
The dark shadow slowly dissipated, leaving only a sinister smile lingering in the demonic aura.
Deeper in the wild forest of the Western Regions, on the top of a mountain that towers into the clouds, a chaotic, non-human black shadow changed its expectation in front of the horse and said indifferently: "Horse-faced can't win, right?"
Behind him, the black-robed demon smiled coldly: "It's OK to deal with the son of destiny, but it's not enough to deal with Xiao Wuyou."
The demon restrained his teasing for a rare moment and said respectfully: "The origin of all demons, the lord of monsters, as the oldest and most chaotic being in the world, you should be aware of Xiao Wuyou's extraordinary qualities."
The black shadow didn't turn around, but the skull on its neck suddenly twisted around, with scarlet light emanating from its eyes. The monstrous demonic energy roared like a dark storm on the mountaintop along with its god-transforming cultivation: "Do you really think I'm stupid? The bloodlines of the four sacred beasts, and that guy from Donghai, didn't they all fall one after another because they helped you?"
When Tianmo heard this, he almost cursed out loud.
The ancestor of the Qin family was indeed treated as a discarded pawn by him to test Xiao Wuyou's strength, but the Dragon King was clearly the one who was stupid. He had agreed to form an alliance, but he insisted on going up alone!
He had originally agreed on a cooperation with the Demon Lord, but because of the death of the Dragon King, the other party became suspicious!
Perhaps, this is another influence of Xiao Wuyou's luck.
"Demon, I only want the Demon King. Xiao Wuyou is not my enemy."
"But Xiao Wuyou has already set his sights on the Demon King, the Lord of Demons. If you want to get the Demon King, you must fight Xiao Wuyou!"
The black wind was howling, and the deep dark shadow fell into a long silence.
Chapter 38 Nothing unexpected will happen.
-------------------------------
The next day, a punitive team composed of masters from the two tribes set out from the western defense line and entered the dense forest.
Considering that the enemy has at least one incarnation, and whose specific cultivation level is unknown, this time there are two incarnations, Qingshe and Xiao Wuyou, leading the team just in case.
The remaining cultivators were at least at the Jindan stage, totaling more than fifty people. In addition to the Juejian Sect, there were also human masters from other sects.
The combined high-end and mid-end combat power is equivalent to withdrawing nearly half of the troops on the southern defense line at one time.
Looking at this small group of elite soldiers, Xiao Wuyou couldn't help but sigh inwardly. No wonder this operation would become the destined disaster in the prophecy.
Although it is not as tragic as the annihilation of the demon tribe five thousand years ago, if this team is destroyed in the wilderness, the southern defense line will be crippled.
The situation on the entire Western Region defense line is very tense. If something goes wrong on the southern defense line, it will be used as a breakthrough point and the entire defense line may fall.
Considering the seriousness of the consequences, Xiao Wuyou did not hide it and brought Tushan Momo with him this time. In case of any danger, the little fox might be able to give him a warning.
"Let's go, let's go! Follow me...oh no, I will lead the army in person!"
However, Tushan Momo rode on the iron ox that had transformed into its true form, shouting excitedly, which made the green snake look at her coldly.
The green snake walked beside Xiao Wuyou, his tone full of sarcasm: "Master Xiao, is bringing Master Momo here also part of the plan?"
".......That's right." Fortunately, Xiao Wuyou is thick-skinned and has long been accustomed to talking nonsense in a serious manner.
The green snake sighed, glanced at Tushan Momo again, held his forehead, and walked quickly forward as if he could not see or be distracted.
The wild forest was filled with demonic energy, and all living creatures in the world were eroded by it, no matter if they were demons or humans. Those who were below the level of a spirit had to circulate their spiritual energy to resist it.
In addition, the higher the demonic energy went, the thicker it became, so the team had to walk, which made the already difficult march even slower.
Not long after they started walking, many cultivators from the two tribes began to have disordered breaths and pale faces. It was obvious that they had consumed a lot of energy just to resist the evil spirit.
This is also one of the main reasons why for thousands of years, the coalition forces of the two races have found it difficult to engage in a head-on confrontation with the demons and could only retreat to their defenses.
"Damn, I'm almost dying just from resisting the evil spirit!"
"Heh, this is just the beginning. You'll be tired if we start fighting!"
"The True Green Snake King and Lord Xiao, their spiritual cultivation is so strong!"
Even a Yuanying master has to expend his mind to resist the evil spirit.
Only Xiao Wuyou and Qing Snake looked calm, as if they were walking on flat ground.
It’s just that Xiao Wuyou is protected by good fortune, not by relying on his cultivation to suppress it.
The monks of the two tribes were complaining to each other, but then they heard a childish cry.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you dawdling for? Hurry up!"
The gray wolf who was traveling with them looked at the energetic little fox girl and asked in surprise: "Master Momo, are you okay?!"
Tushan Momo seemed to want to imitate Xiao Wuyou's calm smile, but she tried too hard and ended up with a crooked smile, which looked inexplicably funny: "Hehehe, I am the Demon King. What can a mere demonic energy do to me?"
"You are worthy of being Lady Momo! Then can you get off me?" said the old cow being ridden distressedly.
Tushan Momo was stunned for a moment, then she covered her chest exaggeratedly and fell backwards on the cow's back: "Ah, no, I can't breathe..."
Everybody laughed, and the boring march became a little more fun.
The corners of Qingshe's mouth were about to rise slightly, but she heard Xiao Wuyou teasing: "It turns out that Miss Qingshe is not so unkind."
She immediately glared back: "Did you bring Lady Momo here just to listen to her jokes?"
Xiao Wuyou said leisurely: "Momo will be of great use."
The green snake curled its lips and said nothing.
But Xiao Wuyou was telling the truth. Momo's intuition was the strongest among the children of luck, and bringing her along was like bringing a luck alarm.
And Momo is not affected by the evil spirit, which is also very intriguing. Who knows what other skills this little fox girl has yet to use.
The demonic aura was pitch black, like a gloomy night, with not a single ray of light visible through the cracks in the woods.
Fortunately, the monsters have a keen sense of smell, so with them leading the way, we won’t get lost and feel at ease.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the scouts ahead finally reported back with good news.
"Green Snake King, demon scouts spotted ahead!"
There was a flash of heat in the green snake's eyes, but he still said calmly: "Are you sure you haven't been discovered?"
"I'm sure! This is a great opportunity to capture the scout and extract information from him!" the scout said excitedly.
When Xiao Wuyou heard this, he knew that trouble was coming.
"Isn't it too strange that there are demon scouts here?" Xiao Wuyou deliberately added.
But the green snake shook his head: "Regular scout, normal."
Then she glanced at Xiao Wuyou and said in a cold tone, "Master Xiao, don't worry too much. I will personally lead the elite of the demon tribe forward, which is enough to capture a few scouts."
The demon clan scouts were stunned, and one of them laughed dryly and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to mobilize a large army. The other side only has one Yuanying, and the few of us together will be enough."
"Hehe, isn't this just to reassure a certain righteous genius?" The green snake shrugged, its tail floating upwards, appearing very impatient.
Tushan Momo, who was standing by, couldn't help but puff up her lips when she saw this. However, Xiao Wuyou smiled first and said, "That's good. If there's any change, I'll help you."
Although he said thank you, the green snake tilted his head back with a cold look in his eyes: "Thank you very much."
After briefly explaining the situation, Green Snake followed several Jindan masters to capture the scout.
It stands to reason that a great god wouldn't need to intervene in such a small matter. If the noise was too loud, it might even expose his whereabouts.
Seeing that the green snake was so stubborn, Xiao Wuyou had no choice.
Of course, everything was fine as long as it was safe. But based on his experience dealing with prophetic images, this trip would definitely not be that simple.
Silly child, you will feel the pain once you suffer a loss.
On the other hand, the green snake held its breath and walked through the dense bushes. After a long time, it found a Nascent Soul demon with donkey hooves on its lower body and a sheep's head on its head, near a swamp.
Around him, there were several strange-looking golden elixir monsters that looked like monkeys and cats.
Most of these demons are demonized demons, and some are transformed from demon cultivators who have gone astray and survived a catastrophe. In short, their minds are eroded by demonic energy, filled with dirty desires for killing and lust, and their personalities are completely corrupted, with no possibility of repentance.
The green snake nodded slightly.
The four demon masters attacked together, revealing their true forms, transforming into jackals, tigers and leopards, launching a sneak attack and knocking down the golden elixir demons around them.
The sheep-headed demon was furious, and suddenly burst out with turbid demonic energy, punching the nearest demon.
But at this moment, a green light flashed, and the green snake swung its tail, like a sharp sword that could cut through iron like mud, or like a long whip weighing a thousand pounds. With just one blow, it broke half of the sheep-headed demon's head.
Then, the green snake's long tail circled around, cutting all the surrounding monsters in half, but the monsters themselves were unharmed.
The Ox-Camel Demon struggled to get up, but was tied up by the snake's tail. Then the green snake raised its long beautiful legs and stomped hard on the bloody face of the sheep head.
"I ask, you answer, understand?"
Chapter 39: Ambush
---------------
According to intelligence gathered previously, the demon army was lurking in this direction.
Even if this bull-headed demon doesn't speak, the fact that there are scouts proves the reliability of the intelligence.
What the green snake was most curious about was what the demons were planning by sneaking into the wilderness.
"What are you planning to do by sneaking into the wild forest?"
The green snake had just asked the question when unexpectedly the sheep-headed demon with only half of its face left raised its head and let out a strange and creepy sneer.
"We are here to kill you!"
The green snake only felt the agitated spiritual power in the other party's body, and reacted very quickly. It raised its slender legs and kicked fiercely.
The whole body of the sheep-headed demon was kicked away. Unable to withstand the powerful attack from the God Transformation Stage, its body was broken in two, and large amounts of blood splattered everywhere.
However, his smile was still ferocious!
The next moment, the two halves of the body turned into dark runes and flowed into the swamp. The entire swamp instantly boiled, as if it were alive, forming a huge swamp face with bared fangs, attacking everyone.
"Retreat!"
The green snake realized something was wrong, and for the sake of her subordinates, she stepped forward alone, her skirt fluttering, and her snake tail counterattacked, slashing out a sharp green light.
After one strike, the entire swamp monster was cut in half.
But the monster did not stop. Instead, it turned into countless mud tentacles, bypassed the green snake in an instant, and attacked the group of demon soldiers behind her.
Several of them were only at the Golden Core stage and could not react in time, so they were entangled by the tentacles one after another.
"Hold on, I'll..."
Green Snake was about to say something when he was interrupted by the painful screams of his subordinates. The swamp was emitting yellow-green foam, which not only locked up the demon scouts, but also corroded their flesh and blood at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Only then did the green snake finally realize how vicious this magic array was, and secretly gritted his teeth: "Corrosive Swamp Array..."
This formation is only an earth-level formation, and of course it cannot threaten the green snake that has already reached the divine level.
But the insidiousness of this formation is that it does not target those with high cultivation, but will prioritize attacking those with weaker cultivation. Once caught in the quagmire of this formation, it is almost impossible to break free by brute force, and the flesh and blood will be corroded.
The most crucial thing is that if you use external force to break it, the quagmire will absorb spiritual energy and accelerate the corrosion of flesh and blood!
The Green Snake can break the formation with brute force with just one strike, but her subordinates will be killed by then!
Why is there such a formation here? Could it be that the demons have already...
Before she could think about it, several monsters could no longer hold on, their flesh and blood dissolved, and their breath dropped sharply.
"My king...don't worry about us, just break the formation by force!" one of them roared in pain.
"We have already been prepared to die when we set out on this expedition!"
"I just ask the king to give us a quick death!"
The green snake was startled and closed its eyes deeply.
A general should be ruthless, and a cultivator should be merciless. But even so, she couldn't help but think that if she had listened to Xiao Wuyou and been more cautious, these monsters wouldn't have sacrificed themselves in vain.
As a demon king, he should protect his own kind, but...
No, things have come to this, there is no other way.
When he opened his eyes again, the green snake's eyes had returned to being cold, with a hint of determination flashing across them.
But just as she was about to strike the center of the swamp with her palm, she heard a soft call from behind.
"Is it too early to give up now?"
The green snake turned around and saw Xiao Wuyou standing there with a calm look on his face.
Looking at those warm eyes, Qingshe felt embarrassed and unwilling: "Master Xiao, forget the teasing. I admit that I was careless."
"But first of all..."
"The most urgent task is to save their lives."
