Chapter 448: The Peak of the Fifth Grade of the Demonic Spirit Realm!
“You don’t have the qualifications!”
Though Situ Muyang was young, his face showed a touch of immaturity. Despite this, he exuded an overwhelming presence.
He formed a handprint, and a violent wind rushed forth, accompanied by a burst of blinding light. A small tornado formed in his hand, its energy spiraling outward and immediately enveloping several Wolf-headed Demon Bats.
“Bang bang bang…”
Four of the Wolf-headed Demon Bats were swept away, blood spurting from their bodies as they were hurled into the distance.
“Ah…” (a howl echoed)
The last of the Demon Bats was the largest, with a wingspan nearly three meters long. Its body shimmered with a dark, blood-like glow, radiating a strong, bloodthirsty aura. It bared its teeth and claws with ferocity, its mouth dripping blood as it swooped toward Situ Muyang.
This particular Wolf-headed Demon Bat had reached the first level of the Demonic Spirit Realm, making it quite formidable. Although its wings appeared thin, they were as sharp as blades, emanating a powerful aura of bloodlust.
Situ Muyang could no longer remain airborne and had to descend to the ground. He formed another hand seal, preparing to confront the last Demon Bat.
“You vile creature!”
But at that moment, Su Yi made his move. His figure swept forward, leaving behind a palm imprint that shot forward. A red elemental force radiated from his palm, surging with the sound of wind and thunder, as it collided with the Demon Bat.
For some reason, the Wolf-headed Demon Bat trembled, and its bloodthirsty eyes flickered with an unexpected change.
“Bang!”
With that, Su Yi’s strike sent the Demon Bat crashing to the ground, its body plummeting with great force. The impact sent a surge of air, kicking up sand and stones, as the ground shook beneath the force of the fall.
Situ Muyang raised an eyebrow, secretly amazed by Su Yi’s strength.
“Roar…”
Suddenly, a deep, wolf-like howl echoed from an unknown direction. The sound carried through the air, reverberating and shaking the sky.
“Crash…”
At nearly the same moment, from the distant mountain, several blood-red bursts of light shot into the sky, emanating from within dark, cavernous openings.
A crashing sound filled the air as a thick blood-red cloud expanded, blanketing the sky.
“Roar…”
The haunting roars of beasts—like howls of wolves—echoed, rattling the surroundings and sending shockwaves through the air.
Following Su Yi’s and Situ Muyang’s gaze, a dense blood-colored cloud descended, pressing forward and suffusing the air with an oppressive, bloodthirsty aura.
“This is bad! It’s a nest of Wolf-headed Demon Bats!”
Situ Muyang exclaimed, his heart racing. The overwhelming presence told him that they were surrounded by a horde of these beasts.
At first glance, thousands of Wolf-headed Demon Bats were flying in formation, their wings blocking out the sky.
Among them, at least seven or eight had reached the Demonic Spirit Realm, with one each at the third and fourth levels of the realm.
The largest, situated at the forefront, had a wingspan of several meters. It shone with a blinding radiance, and its presence sent a chill down Situ Muyang’s spine.
Su Yi raised his gaze toward the monstrous bat, his expression slightly changing.
The largest Wolf-headed Demon Bat, which Su Yi estimated to have a wingspan of more than 20 meters, appeared terrifying. Its wings were stained with fresh blood, and its claws resembled deadly hooks. Its jagged teeth gleamed with a faint light, and as it spread its wings, a blood-red glow emanated from it, filling the air with an aura of overwhelming power.
Su Yi’s eyes narrowed as he focused. This was the fabled Wolf-headed Demon Bat at the Peak of the Fifth Grade of the Demonic Spirit Realm.
“Roar…”
“They are humans attempting to steal my Dark Spirit Fruit! They will pay for their arrogance!”
The largest Wolf-headed Demon Bat bellowed in a language that only beasts understood, assuming the humans wouldn’t comprehend. With that, it spread its massive wings, unleashing a burst of bloody light as it rocketed toward Su Yi and Situ Muyang.
The bat hadn’t even arrived, but its sheer presence, along with the wind from its descent, sent a shockwave through the air. Situ Muyang, alarmed, immediately activated his Wind Battle Armor, enveloping himself in an ancient aura that radiated authority and power.
“You vile beast, how dare you!”
In the same instant, Su Yi shouted and leapt forward. A torrent of fire-attribute Qi poured out of him, sweeping through the air with a fierce intensity.
From Su Yi’s palm, a blazing energy spiraled out, accompanied by a sound like crashing waves. It resembled a sea of flames, surging and swirling together.
A hand seal appeared before him, radiating heat that seemed to burn the very air, exuding an ancient, overwhelming pressure.
This was the Scarlet Ancient Seal, a devastating move once wielded by Xiong Zhan, the trump card from the “Mighty Desolate Verse.”
Su Yi’s Scarlet Ancient Seal, now perfected, was drawn from the complete “Mighty Desolate Verse” within the “Divine Demonic Ancient Verse.”
The strongest Wolf-headed Demon Bat descended upon them, but Su Yi, at the fourth level of the Yuan Spirit Realm, released all his power in the form of the Scarlet Ancient Seal. The two forces collided in an instant.
“Boom…”
The impact unleashed a brilliant flash of spiritual light, followed by a violent gust of wind and a wave of bloodthirsty energy that sent ripples through the air, even shaking the void itself.
“Thud, thud!” The wind whipped through the air, and the bloody aura erupted with such force that rocks and sand were sent flying. The ground cracked beneath the onslaught, and Su Yi staggered backward.
“Crack, crack…”
Each step Su Yi took caused the ground to fracture, as the very earth beneath him turned to dust.
Yet, the Wolf-headed Demon Bat also retreated, its radiance fading slightly.
“Fourth grade of the Yuan Spirit Realm!”
Situ Muyang stepped back in shock, staring at Su Yi as if he’d seen a ghost.
It was only now that he realized Su Yi was at the fourth grade of the Yuan Spirit Realm. When they had fought earlier, Su Yi hadn’t used his full strength, and Situ Muyang had been left guessing.
“Roar…”
The leading Wolf-headed Demon Bat roared once more, sending a deafening shockwave through the air. Its eyes narrowed, darkening with malice as its bloodthirsty aura surged. The winds howled around it, and turbulent clouds gathered, heightening its terrifying presence.
Su Yi looked up at the immense creature, his gaze hardening. The power of the Wolf-headed Demon Bat was undeniable. Even though Su Yi had fought with all his might, he hadn’t yet resorted to his Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique.
“Whooshing sound…”
“Roar…”
A group of Wolf-headed Demon Bats took flight, their wings beating in unison as the air grew thick with a suffocating bloodlust.
The aura they radiated was so potent that it could force anyone lacking sufficient strength to collapse.
“You despicable creature, the Dark Spirit Fruit Tree belongs to me! Leave now, or you will regret it!”
Su Yi’s voice rang out, his eyes locked on the leader of the Wolf-headed Demon Bats as he issued the challenge.
“This guy…”
Situ Muyang, overwhelmed, couldn’t believe what he was seeing. He had agreed to retreat if things went badly, but now, surrounded by so many Demon Bats, Su Yi showed no signs of fleeing. Instead, he was daring them to come at him.
Situ Muyang stared at Su Yi. Did he truly think he could take on the Wolf-headed Demon Bat at the Peak of the Fifth Grade of the Demonic Spirit Realm, even with his fourth-grade Yuan Spirit Realm cultivation, especially now that they were surrounded by the swarm?
