Chapter 240: Chapter 111: Millennium Family! Demon Monster Crystalization!_1
Su Changkong gasped for breath, feeling waves of relief in his heart.
During this period, Su Changkong had been under considerable pressure, worrying that Feng Mo might come after him. Because of this, he had no choice but to cultivate diligently. Though he usually trained hard, there was a difference between being forced to and doing so freely.
And now, he had personally slain the demon monster Feng Mo!
Demons, mysterious as they were, indeed weren’t immortal. With the sword in his hand, he could still slay them!
“Burn his body.”
After a brief rest, Su Changkong prepared to completely destroy Feng Mo’s remains. After all, Feng Mo was a demon monster, and Su Changkong wasn’t sure whether he was truly dead. Reducing him to ashes would ensure there were no mistakes!
Su Changkong quickly gathered some firewood in the wasteland and poured some of the fire oil he had brought from the Giant Whale Gang. With the help of the fire oil, Su Changkong easily lit a fire large enough to incinerate the body, collecting all of Feng Mo’s remains and throwing them into the flames.
Su Changkong discovered that the secret to a demon monster’s seemingly indestructible body lay in demonic power. Once it was exhausted, the demon’s body could burn just the same.
“Hmm? What is this?”
Suddenly, Su Changkong was taken aback as he saw Feng Mo’s severed head burning in the flames. As the flesh burned away, a light seemed to gleam from within the skull.
Feeling curious, Su Changkong became more vigilant. He retrieved Feng Mo’s head from the fire and used the tip of the sword to pick out the glowing object inside.
“This is…”
Upon closer inspection, Su Changkong found an irregular, thumb-tip-sized, prism-shaped crystal, dark red throughout with mysterious power flowing within, resembling a magnificent gemstone.
Strangely, although it had been extracted from Feng Mo’s head, the Crystal Core was spotless, untainted by any dirt.
“Could this be something like a Demon Core?”
Su Changkong was amazed, the Crystal Core having been taken from the demon monster’s head, it must be something akin to a power core.
“Thump thump thump!”
As Su Changkong held it in the palm of his hand, the cool touch of the Crystal Core’s surface and its profound light seemed to resonate, causing his heartbeat to involuntarily quicken, as if he felt an intense desire for the Core!
“What a strange thing!” This sent a chill through Su Changkong’s heart. The Crystal Core from within the demon monster was indeed peculiar.
“Let’s keep it…”
After a moment of thought, Su Changkong decided not to discard the Crystal Core. Despite its peculiar nature, he suspected it might be quite valuable, being something that originated within a demon monster, and very rare at that! He could look into its function and value later. Perhaps there would be a great reward!
“It’s time to leave.”
Glancing back at the demon monster’s remains, which were nearly consumed by the flames, Su Changkong didn’t linger and immediately left the barren mountain, heading back in the direction of the Giant Whale Gang.
The wilderness was silent, and the fire that Su Changkong had started, having burnt most of the remains and depleted its fuel, gradually extinguished, emitting wisps of dark smoke.
Half an hour after Su Changkong had left, two agile figures swiftly arrived.
One was a youth in white clothes with a noble demeanor, while the other was a robust and strong man.
“Damn it! The Marking Seed I planted on that demon monster has dissipated, the fiend is dead!”
The youth in white looked extremely displeased.
The youth in white and the strong man had been tasked with going to Ink Forest Prefecture City to deal with the scourge, the demon monster Feng Mo.
But the youth in white wanted Feng Mo to reach his peak before slaying him, ripe like fruit, for that would yield the greatest harvest!
To ensure that Feng Mo couldn’t escape his control, the youth in white had secretly planted a tracking Marking Seed. He first implanted the Marking Seed in a Human Warrior, whom Feng Mo devoured in an attempt to recover his strength, thus silently transferring the mark to Feng Mo.
With the tracking Marking Seed, there was no way for Feng Mo to escape from his grasp, so the youth in white let him roam and prey in Ink Forest Prefecture City.
In the youth in white’s view, there was no chance a warrior from a trifling place like Ink Forest Prefecture City could threaten Feng Mo, who possessed an Immortal Body.
However, what the youth in white never anticipated was that the Marking Seed he had planted on Feng Mo had dissolved not too long ago!
There were two possibilities, one that Feng Mo had detected the Marking Seed and found a way to disperse it, but more likely, he was dead! Killed by someone!
This prompted the youth in white to hurry from the inn where he was staying to the place where the Marking Seed had disappeared, leading to the scene before him.
“The demon monster is really dead? Was it killed by a local Martial Artist of Ink Forest Prefecture City?”
Unlike the dismayed mood of the youth in white, the strong man was more shocked.
A master capable of chopping down a demon monster in Ink Forest Prefecture City! That was unexpected!
“There are traces here!”
Quickly, the youth in white and the strong man entered the deserted mountains and found the pile of firewood that had almost stopped burning and some bones that had not been fully consumed.
Whoosh!
The youth in white waved his sleeve, and a powerful invisible force blew the pile of firewood apart.
The youth in white began searching carefully through the pile of charred remains.
After a while, the youth in white’s face became as dark as water, “Gone… The Demon Core has been taken!”
