Maiden Of The Splitting Moon

Chapter 375 - No Longer A Mixed Blood

One by one, she sent forth a Blasting Gale at the demons who were simply eviscerated by the attack. All she had to do was stay still and shoot. No demon here could avoid or even defend against them. They were quick, powerful, and worst of all, it felt as if there was no end. 

It took seconds before the next one came, making craters in the ground and shredding bodies apart. 

With the Eternal Heart Ring recovering her energy, she didn't have to worry about exhausting herself. She barely felt a thing when summoning a hundred wind lances at once and so, Ming Yue took it up a notch. 

One became five as she poured more energy into each one, the explosions grew stronger and more demons died.

"Fifteen hundred dead", Xue Yue counted. 

There was no end to these demons but she had plenty of strength to spare. 

"Where are the ranged units?! We can't get close to the human!"

The demons suddenly stopped as they realized that brute force would not cut it. She was much harder to kill than they thought. And thus, squads of archers and other ranged attackers gathered, loading their weapons and preparing their attacks.

"Archers! Aim at the little human! Fire!"

From arrows to javelins, hundreds of them flew out, blocking out the light of the sun. All of it flying to her location, aiming to pierce her body. 

"Wrath of the Winds."

Ming Yue was quick, putting her open palm forward as she summoned a great tornado that sucked up all of it. Then she grabbed Hei Yue and flew over it before entering into the eye where it was safe. Xiao Yin followed after her entering the tornado as well. 

"What is that human doing? Did she just kill herself?"

The demons were stupefied, not knowing the properties of a tornado. Some found it laughable that this powerful foe had just killed herself but that belief was far from the truth. 

Within the tornado, she stood in it and started walking. The tornado followed, keeping her at the center. 

"It should be larger, quicker, stronger."

Taking it even further, she burned more of her energy into the tornado which nearly tripled in size and strength. The wind had become so powerful the demon soldiers had trouble sticking to the ground. 

Her walk slowly sped up to a sprint as she flew back up with Hei Yue and charged straight into the demons. With the tornado beneath her, anything that stood in its way was pulverized. The wind took on a reddish color as the blood turned into a fine mist. A red tornado had been created and it was an ominous sight. 

"Ahhh! Run! Run!"

"Avoid it! Avoid the tornado!"

They ran for their lives lest they wanted to become nothing more than minced meat. 

Seeing it all unfold, Kong Zhi was unsettled. 

"How can this human have all this strength?" he thought. 

Yanking the chain of the Hel-Fire Dragon, he dived down, heading straight for her. What more, he activated his bloodline. His body trembled as wisps of white energy flowed out from within. The heavy armor he wore shifted and revealed his back. His stone skin trembled as four bulges emerged for transforming into four different arms to which the armor shifted back, fitting around them. 

"You! What did you do?"

The Matron chased after him but not even she would've expected this. He laughed at her in arrogance as a vicious smile formed after. 

"I found my ancestors in the Starlight Manor! I'm no longer a mixed- blood demon but a pure- blooded Vajra! Ahahaha!"

Kong Zhi then turned on her as half of his fists began to shine with an ivory glow. With the Matron flying down as he flew up, his three glowing fists punched together with a quick fierceness, landing a powerful blow on her cheek. All three of them made contact, the force behind it was so powerful that Matron Shuang was sent tumbling down to the ground. 

"The Matron!"

As this great beast fell, Ming Yue was the first to notice it but she could not catch her in time. The Matron crashed into the ground, crushing any demon under her. But she was surrounded and worse than that she was nearly unconscious. 

"Burst!"

Under her command, the tornado exploded beneath her, cutting up everything within a hundred meters as the trio went to save Matron Shuang.

"Lord Kong Zhi has defeated another Hel- Fire Dragon!"

"Quick, capture it before it recovers!"

The demons around the Matron were quick to respond, bringing over chains and cuffs to bind her. 

Ming Yue didn't even make a sound as she flew towards the dragon. Swinging Drifting Sky around, twenty lives were lost as their heads were severed from their bodies

And in the frontlines, the many beasts saw Matron Shuang fall and it brought them into a rage. An earsplitting collective of roars caused the air to trembled as they pushed the demons even further. 

"Matron! Help!"

The Silver Fur Ape shouted out as the beast began to pummel away. 

"Matron?... The Hel- Fire Dragon! Ming Yue is there as well!"

Nie Xia quickly realized it and began to shout orders.

Everyone, we have to head for the fallen Hel- Fire Dragon! Ming Yue is there as well! We must help her! Into formation!"

The soldiers all nodded and lined up behind Nie Xia, who planted his shield in front of him. Just as he was about to push forward and run through the army, a shadow flew over them!

"I will not let you!"

Shi Hou, the Roaring King, appeared in front of Nie Zha and pulled his shields apart before lowering his head, aiming his four horns at the commander. 

"Bull Rush!"

Stomping his feet, he charged forward, leaving dust in his wake. Nie Zha was quick, letting go of his shields before grabbing the Roaring King by his horns. He could barely stop the charge, getting pushed back several steps. 

"Damn it!"

His muscles in his body bulged out as he grabbed the horns tightly and threw Shi Hou up into the air. 

"Ten- Hit Nail!"

He leaped up and punched Shi Hou square into the stomach. He only struck once but the Roaring King trembled as Nie Xia's technique burst out ten times. It was only one punch but it felt as if he had endured ten of them. 

Nie Xia quickly looked for his warriors, wanting to command them to go without him. However, even if he made that order, they could not go through with it. 

"I am not alone, Commander Nie Xia! I will not allow you and your soldiers to help that human! Come! I am here for a fight!"

Shi Hou's voice echoed out as this demon fell back to the ground, landing on his feet. The Horned Demon removed his helmet as he let out a roar comparable to that of the forest's beasts. His four black horns shuddered and grew, doubling in size and branching out. What was four has become eight horns and they were incredibly menacing. 

"With my bloodline, do you think you can survive one charge from me?" the Roaring King said. 

Nie Xia looked at him as he cracked his fingers and his neck, taking off the top half of his armor. His chest revealed scars of any kind but there was a tattoo on his chest, one resembling that of the Black Tortoise's Constellation.

"Physique of the Black Tortoise."

Flexing his body, various cracks could be heard, hundreds of acupoints in his body seemed to burst open. The air around him changed as his body seemed to be brimming with strength. Was this his real strength? The power of a Body Cultivator?"

"Surviving one charge? Can you survive one punch from me now?"
