Chapter 703: Chapter 363: The Metamorphosis of the Dragon Elephant, Assaulting the Demon Nest
The demon disaster on Longwu Continent was even more severe than Lu Yun and the others had imagined, with nearly two-thirds of the region plagued by rampant Demon Beasts.
The powers of this realm continuously retreated, and even those with unsteady wills would be infected and degenerate into Demon Beasts.
If it weren’t for the fact that most Demon Beasts lacked rationality and were busy killing and devouring each other, Longwu Continent would have long since become the domain of the Demon Beasts.
In a corner of the western continent, Antonis stood in the Void with an indifferent and icy expression. In the deserted city, the temperature kept dropping, and silence spread.
“Thirty million Human Race, and only three drops of essence… It seems I need to find another place,” he said.
“Hehe.”
“I really look forward to the moment Lord Harin arrives; that’s when I can share the essence of Heaven and Earth.”
“An entire World Power, indeed.”
Antonis chuckled, his eyes narrowing slightly.
“Roar!”
Above the ruins that once were a city, several terribly fierce Demon Beasts fought each other.
“Silence!” The lovely fantasy was abruptly interrupted. Cold light burst and blossomed in Antonis’s eyes. A chilling air permeated everything around him; the two Demon Beasts that had evolved to the Heavenly Human Realm level were instantly slain.
Just as Antonis was preparing to leave.
Boom!
A rumbling noise came.
The Void trembled, and the ruins below shook ceaselessly, as if a massive earthquake had occurred, making both the land and the Void tremble eternally.
Antonis frowned deeply, staring intently upward.
“Who is this?”
“Have the strong of the Longwu Continent already forgotten the harsh lessons from last time, to the point where someone dares to court death?”
“That’s not right…”
A tremor suddenly went through Antonis’s heart, a sense of unease filling it.
“Boom!”
Crossing the Void and passing by this place, Lu Yun’s gaze was indifferent, and Divine Power burst forth.
A gigantic hand, shining with golden light and resembling the mighty Mount Five Fingers, extended from the Void, dazzling and cool, containing a terrifying force.
After trying, he found that the Hell Furnace could smelt Demon Beasts, turning them into life essence, which could be used for the Dragon Elephant’s transformation. Since then, he continually captured Demon Beasts.
Along the way, he had smelted at least a hundred Demon Beasts, among which a Dragon Elephant showed signs of awakening.
“Spout!”
The great hand reached down and enveloped an area of several miles, directly inserting itself into the ground.
Then, with a fierce grasp, it pulled up everything on the entire city, neither the thick soil nor the solid city walls could stop this hand, conjured from Divine Power.
“Roar!”
The Demon Beasts that roamed around roared madly and resisted desperately, but under the terrifying force of the gigantic hand, they could barely make a splash.
“This force, could it be the Unity Realm Experts of the Human Race have made a move again?”
Antonis’s face changed dramatically. His body emitted a faint black glow, and as the black mist ebbed and flowed, his panic was clear.
He was lucky to have transformed into a Demon Beast with consciousness, it shouldn’t be an Earth Demon.
He was now in the late stage of the Earth Demon, not a match for the Unity Realm.
Escape!
A pair of pitch-black wings suddenly extended from behind him, and then his whole body rolled with black flames, bursting forth with power rivaling the peak of the Earth Demon.
“Damn it, if I could take these three drops of life essence back with me, I would definitely reach the peak of the Earth Demon.”
Indeed, in order to escape, he had even ingested a precious drop of essence, giving him a temporary boost to the peak of the Earth Demon’s strength.
Temporary peak of the Earth Demon versus permanent peak, there was a world of difference.
But to save his life, he couldn’t care about that anymore.
“Oh, a fish that slipped through the net?!!”
After breaking free from the golden hand, an indifferent voice came from the Void, scaring Antonis into a chill, pumping all his Magic Power, and fleeing toward the Demon Nest in the Wangyue Mountain Range.
There lived a powerful Law Demon, and surely even the Unity Realm Experts of the Human Race wouldn’t dare to pursue.
“This Demon Beast has some tricks, erupting with such strength all of a sudden. No wonder it could escape from Junior Brother Lu’s hands,” Lin Jingtian said with a laugh, while the others were also surprised.
On their way here, Lu Yun had casually taken action to capture several Demon Beasts, exhibiting strength that was almost at the Unity Realm level.
Lu Yun just smiled faintly and said to Jin Jikang, “Senior Brother Jin, weren’t we unable to find the exact location of the Demon Nest?”
Jin Jikang’s eyes lit up, immediately understanding Lu Yun’s intention. He quickly gave the order, “Follow it, keep an appropriate distance from this Demon Beast, and aside from Junior Brother Lu, no one else reveal your presence.”
Waves of energy surged as everyone hid in the Void, following Antonis from afar.
In the far western lands, where the light was boundless, they were temporarily unable to find the Demon Nest.
Now that they had encountered a Demon Beast with intelligence, they naturally would not let it go.
“Bang!”
A mighty force of World Power attacked, transforming into a vast finger of light, shooting down from the sky.
The sound of the wind was fierce, tearing through space.
Energy exploded, dust flew.
Antonis’s body trembled and twitched, he fell straight from the sky, a huge cavity appearing on his body.
Determined, he swallowed another drop of essence, his wounds healed, and he burst out with the peak of the Earth Demon’s aura once again, flying off into the skies.
“Damn it, wasting two drops of life essence for this, unforgivable.”
Thinking this, Antonis’s resentment towards the Human Race Unity Realm expert chasing him swelled again, raging ceaselessly like a mighty river.
