Chapter 290: Cold Waves Golden-Red Beast!
Su Yi pondered deeply. If he could cultivate the Divine Demonic Phenomenon from the Divine Demonic Ancient Verse, his abilities as a Soul Tamer would undoubtedly reach new heights. This was the most terrifying aspect of the Divine Demonic Ancient Verse.
—
“Brother Yi Su, how is your recovery?”
Shangguan Yan and the others approached him, interrupting his thoughts. They had finished meditating and noticed Su Yi’s contemplative state.
“I am already fine,” Su Yi replied, coming back to his senses. He glanced at everyone, standing up. Thanks to the recovery elixir he consumed, coupled with his cultivation foundation in the Mighty Desolate Verse, Demonic Spirit Truth Interpretation, and Heavenly Tiger Art, he had recovered significantly in just one night.
“Additionally, my name is Su Yi. Yi Su was just a pseudonym. Please forgive me,” Su Yi confessed with a sincere tone, bowing his head slightly in apology.
“Yi Su, Su Yi—haha, it’s just reversed! It’s no big deal!” Shangguan Ye chuckled. The others smiled as well, showing no offense.
—
“Let’s continue our journey and quickly gather everyone,” Su Tian Que chimed in. The short, featherless bird stretched its body, much like a rooster preparing to crow in the morning. Its appearance elicited suppressed chuckles, but no one dared to laugh openly given the solemn atmosphere.
Everyone remained deeply affected by the recent tragedies, with little room for levity.
—
The group resumed their journey through the Demon Woods, heading toward the secluded meeting point arranged long ago by the Divine Demonic Sect.
Along the way, countless beasts crossed their path. The deeper they ventured, the more powerful the beasts became. Some were even in the Demonic True Realm, with others reaching the Demonic Void Realm. Yet strangely, none attacked.
—
“So strange. Why do these beasts retreat without fighting?” someone asked, unable to suppress their curiosity.
Time and again, powerful beasts had approached, only to suddenly back away in fear when faced with Su Yi. The phenomenon puzzled and astonished the group.
“Brother Su Yi has his own extraordinary ways. There’s no need to overthink it,” Shangguan Yan replied with a tone of pride. Shangguan Ye and the others nodded, sharing the same sentiment.
—
As they walked, discussions about their shared heritage began to surface.
“All of us are descendants of the Divine Demonic Sect, the later generations of a once-glorious legacy!”
“But why must we hide? Why were we forced to live in secrecy?”
“The great enemies of our sect—what kind of terrifying background do they have to be so ruthless?”
A sorrowful silence followed these questions.
—
“The Honourable Demon has fallen, and the two Demon Emperors of Yao Luo Mountain have perished. Even if we uncover the identities of our enemies, what can we do to exact vengeance?”
The bitter truth weighed heavily on everyone. Their protector and the two powerful Demon Emperors had been killed with ease. How could they possibly stand against such enemies?
—
“We must become strong cultivators!” Xiong Zhan suddenly declared. His battle-worn armor was stained with blood, a stark reminder of the recent battles.
“Even if we aren’t their match, we must ensure they pay for their sins with blood!”
His words ignited a fiery resolve among the group.
—
“Not bad! We’re still alive. When we grow stronger in the future, we’ll make them pay the ultimate price!” Hu Chi added, his eyes burning with determination.
“A bloody debt must be repaid in blood!” Shangguan Yan’s voice was cold and filled with hatred.
Su Yi observed the group quietly, his gaze sweeping over their young faces. Their determination flickered like flames, fueling his own thoughts.
—
“The Honourable Demon said that our Divine Demonic Sect has a new sect leader!” someone suddenly mentioned.
“That day, the strange phenomena inside the Tian Yao Cave were shocking. Could there be a connection?”
The group’s attention turned toward Shangguan Yan, Shangguan Xi Wei, and the others, who had entered the cave first.
—
Shangguan Xi Wei and the others exchanged glances, clearly startled by the speculation. They had been unaware of what happened outside during their time in the cave and had not heard the Honourable Demon’s words.
“What happened?” Shangguan Xi Wei asked, her confusion evident.
The group recounted the situation to her and asked, “While you were inside the Tian Yao Cave, was there anything unusual? Who gained the most benefit?”
At that moment, all eyes shifted toward Su Yi.
—
Back then, they had witnessed the bizarre events within the cave, all centered around Su Yi.
Su Yi smiled bitterly, offering no explanation.
“You don’t need to guess anymore,” Su Tian Que suddenly said, waddling to the center of the group. “He is already the new sect leader of your Divine Demonic Sect.”
—
“New sect leader…”
The group froze, their steps halting as they processed this revelation. A mix of astonishment and disbelief filled the air.
“Is it really him…?”
Although uncertain, the evidence was compelling. The position of the new sect leader had indeed landed on an outsider, a fact that no one had anticipated.
—
“Let’s focus on reaching our destination and gathering everyone first,” Su Yi said softly, hoping to shift their attention.
The group reluctantly agreed, though the air buzzed with whispers.
—
Suddenly, a deafening roar shattered the silence.
“ROAR!”
The ground trembled violently, and the dense forest ahead rustled wildly. A chilling, beastly cry echoed through the mountains.
“Another powerful beast!”
Everyone tensed immediately, falling into defensive and attack formations. Encounters with such beasts had become a frequent and dangerous occurrence over the past two days.
