Chapter 45: The Second Prince Reappears
From behind, the two demons, their bodies now enormous, bellowed as they charged forward with their halberds. On the other side, the Second Prince waved his hand again, and dozens of demons of the same strength burst through their heavy armor, their bodies swelling to several times their original size. Roaring, they strode towards Fengyun Wuji, and before they could take a few steps, they bellowed with unmatched might, hurling two bronze halberds.
The sound of tearing through the air was incessant, the halberds surrounded by a purplish-blue glow, with wisps of blue smoke emanating from their tips. Where the halberds passed, the air seemed shattered, and the deafening noise echoed through the underground space.
Fengyun Wuji turned his head with a grim smile, twisted his figure, and transformed into a zigzag lightning bolt, like an arrow off the string, disappearing into the distance, reappearing hundreds of meters away, above another group of demon troops.
Boom!
Two tremendous explosions rocked the water prison in quick succession. Where the green halberds struck, even the thick, hundred-zhang rock was blasted into large chunks, rocks shattered, and within the area enveloped by the halberd’s aura, everything turned into blue smoke. Hundreds of demons didn’t even have time to scream and were reduced to dust under the tips of the halberds.
“Cowardly human, if you dare, don’t run!” The furious roars of the demons echoed from behind, but Fengyun Wuji only sneered, not even bothering to look back. With a flick of his wrist, the Great Law of Star Absorption was unleashed once again. While dealing with higher-level demons might be a struggle for Fengyun Wuji, against these lower-level demons, it was effortless. They had no chance to resist, and in a tidal wave of demonic energy, they were absorbed into Fengyun Wuji’s body. This process was extremely brief, almost in the blink of an eye, and Fengyun Wuji disappeared from the spot again, leaving a trail of white bones behind.
If it weren’t for the rudimentary ‘Great Law of Star Absorption,’ Fengyun Wuji might have known death was inevitable and still fought these demons head-on. But now, after cultivating the demonic arts and absorbing the most violent, cruel, and dark demonic energy from the world, Fengyun Wuji’s nature had changed drastically from what it once was.
In Fengyun Wuji’s perception, the dozens of demons behind him, like persistent pests, all had extremely strong bodies, almost invincible. At least, for his current strength, it was so. If he had to deal with a medium-level demon, Fengyun Wuji might be able to manage, but facing the pursuit of multiple medium-level demons, the Great Law of Star Absorption could not possibly handle so many attacks from all directions at once. This was why Fengyun Wuji kept avoiding confrontation with these medium-level demons. If something is not feasible, it must not be done; this is the concept of the demonic way.
The dozen or so demons behind knew that as long as they caught this human, they could easily annihilate him, but they were frustrated that despite their strong bodies, their agility and speed were completely outmatched by this human, who led them by the nose. They could only watch helplessly as hundreds of lower-level demons were drained of their demonic energy without resistance, turning into piles of white bones. This feeling of being thwarted made the demons so angry that their faces turned blue, and they howled in frustration. Even the Second Prince, who had been watching with a playful attitude, clenched his hands tightly, his face pale with anger.
Ha ha ha~ Fengyun Wuji’s wild laughter resounded throughout the water prison. Swarms of demons rushed up, trying to use a sea of troops to eliminate him, but Fengyun Wuji’s speed was far beyond their reach, appearing in the east for a while, then in the west, all attacks failing to touch the hem of his garment. This feeling of playing with the demons in the palm of his hand was too exhilarating, and with Fengyun Wuji’s current personality, he was extremely proud.
“Fengyun Wuji!” A loud shout echoed through the water prison, and all the demons stopped in their tracks. Fengyun Wuji turned his head and saw the Second Prince grabbing a gorgeous woman by the hair, dragging her forward.
“Ha ha~ Your name is Fengyun Wuji, right? Despicable human, I just love to play with your human women, make them die and come back to life, and finally kill them all! How about it, does it make you hate me! Last time I saw you, it seemed like you wanted to avenge that slut and kill me, right? Ah? Ha ha ha…” The Second Prince’s handsome face was now ferocious as he held the delicate human woman high, his other hand grabbing her clothes and tearing them off.
The woman screamed in pain, struggling hard. She looked up at Fengyun Wuji with moist eyes. She didn’t plead for mercy or help, just fiercely biting her lower lip.
Rip! The sound of tearing fabric echoed in the quiet water prison. The Second Prince tore the woman’s thin clothes off her body, sneering at Fengyun Wuji, “What do you think? Save or not save? Watch your people be raped and killed by me, the evil demon, right in front of you, the righteous human. Is your heart bleeding? Struggle? Save or not save? Ah? Ha ha ha…”
Bloodshot veins filled Fengyun Wuji’s eyes, the demonic energy swirling around him fluctuated violently, and a series of cracking sounds came continuously from his wrists, but Fengyun Wuji stared at the Second Prince motionless. At the Second Prince’s signal, the surrounding demons dispersed, no one daring to encircle him anymore. They knew it was useless; this human was too fast.
“Indifference, ha ha… Good, after cultivating our demonic arts, you are beginning to have a cruel heart… Let’s see how long you can endure.”
“Ha ha ha~ Human women’s bodies are so delicate and tender, it’s quite enjoyable to do this kind of thing. How about it, human, do you want to join in the fun, ha ha ha~” The Second Prince vigorously thrust his waist, laughing wildly.
Fengyun Wuji’s pupils shrank, a strong murderous aura sweeping through the entire underground water prison like a whirlwind, the first to be affected was the Second Prince. The Second Prince suddenly stopped moving, his hair standing on end, staring at Fengyun Wuji like a venomous snake.
But after a long time, Fengyun Wuji remained as cold as before, without moving a muscle.
The Second Prince became furious and shouted, “I’ll see how long you can endure!”
He snatched a green halberd spear from a nearby demon, holding it upside down, and thrust the butt of the halberd into the rock not far away, leaving about a zhang of the spear tip exposed, slanting against himself.
“I want to see if you will save this woman or not!” The Second Prince said coldly, grabbing the human woman and forcefully pushing her towards the sharp tip of the spear…
