129: Chapter 129 Encountering Demons Again on the Return Journey, Demons Show Their Sharpness by Eliminating the Weeds at the Root

After leaving that ancient Immortal Cave, Ye Qing was in quite a good mood.

He steered his escape light, flying unhurriedly toward Zhenbei City, his mind still ruminating on the exquisite techniques within the Myriad Poison Evergreen Art.

"That Senior was truly a Genius. To actually think of using myriad poisons as a lead to refine one's own body, eventually reaching a Realm of being immune to all poisons and evergreen and immortal. Although this path is not easy to walk, if one walks it through, it is indeed a broad and smooth road."

As he flew, he compared the parts of the Myriad Poison Evergreen Art regarding the cultivation of spirit plants with his existing knowledge, and a complete plan for cultivating that mutated ancient tree gradually formed in his heart.

"After I return, I will first formulate a batch of 'Hundred Poison Liquid' to pour on that ancient tree. Then, using the technique of the 'Green Wood Poison Emperor Needle', I will guide the poison Law within its body to undergo Fusion with the wood-attribute life force. This way, not only can I accelerate its growth, but I can also elevate its quality."

The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, and he wished he could fly back to Zhenbei City immediately to start implementing his plan.

However, just as he flew out of the range of the Black Miasma Swamp and entered the outer area of the Canglang Mountain Range, a sharp sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from the night sky ahead!

Immediately afterward, dozens of escape lights of various colors rose into the sky like meteors from the dense forest ahead, rapidly approaching him in a surrounding Formation!

Within the escape lights, dozens of Demonic Qi of varying strengths were emitted, the strongest of which had reached the Perfection of the Golden Core Stage! The others were also above the Middle Stage of the Golden Core Stage!

"Oh? Coming again?"

Ye Qing raised his eyebrows, stopped his escape light, and hovered in mid-air, looking at the dozens of escape lights approaching rapidly, a playful smile appearing on his face.

"It seems that the Demonic Generals I killed at Black Wind Ridge last time really made that 'Iron-Winged Eagle King' feel the pain. Did he send people to block me?"

He did not choose to dodge or make a detour.

For one, with his current strength, a mere few dozen Golden Core Stage Demonic Generals were not worth him retreating.

For another, he also wanted to see how much military force this 'Iron-Winged Eagle King' really had under his command, and by the way, harvest another wave of 'leeks'.

A moment later, the dozens of escape lights stopped dozens of zhang in front of him, revealing the figures within.

They were dozens of transformed Demonic Generals, wearing uniform black armor, holding various weapons, lined up in a neat military Formation, full of Killing Intent.

The leader was a middle-aged man with a dark red cloak, a cold expression, and eyes as sharp as knives. His aura was the strongest, reaching the Perfection of the Golden Core Stage. Behind him, he carried a pair of pitch-black iron wings, the edges of which shimmered with a cold metallic luster, somewhat similar to the black-clothed eagle demon that Ye Qing had killed last time, but his aura was deeper and sharper.

"Human Race! Was it you who killed my younger brother and dozens of my elite soldiers at Black Wind Ridge?!"

The leading Golden Core Stage Perfection eagle demon locked his gaze onto Ye Qing like a knife, his voice cold, carrying uncontrollable Killing Intent and rage.

"Your younger brother? Oh, you mean the one wearing black, carrying iron wings, looking quite arrogant? That's right, I killed him. Why, do you want to avenge him?"

Ye Qing's tone was relaxed, as if he were stating a trivial matter.

"Courting death!"

The Golden Core Stage Perfection eagle demon's eyes flashed with cold light, and without further ado, he waved his hand fiercely!

"Form up! Kill him!"

The dozens of Demonic Generals behind him responded in unison, their figures flashing, and instantly surrounded Ye Qing according to some profound Formation!

Waves of Demonic Qi rose into the sky, intertwining and converging in the air, forming a huge, suffocating pressure that shrouded down toward Ye Qing!

"Oh? You even understand Formation? Interesting."

Ye Qing looked at the Demonic Generals setting up the Formation with great interest and did not immediately make a move to stop them.

He wanted to see exactly how much capability the elites under this 'Iron-Winged Eagle King' had.

The Golden Core Stage Perfection eagle demon, seeing Ye Qing so arrogant, sneered in his heart, a pitch-black command flag appeared in his hand, and he waved it fiercely!

"Kill!"

At his command, the dozens of Demonic Generals attacked simultaneously!

For a time, the sky was filled with the light of Spells and demonic power attacks, pouring down toward Ye Qing like a storm!

There were scorching fireballs, cold ice spikes, sharp wind blades, heavy earth spikes, and various poison mists, curses, and mental attacks...

These attacks, under the blessing of the Formation, doubled in power and coordinated with each other, sealing off all of Ye Qing's evasion space!

"The momentum is decent. It's a pity, it's all flash and no substance."

Ye Qing shook his head gently, without even using any Magic Treasure.

He just slowly raised his right hand, extended his index finger, and made a light stroke toward the sky full of attacks.

"sword, break."

A strand of Chaos Sword Qi, condensed to the extreme and seemingly capable of severing Karma and breaking all Laws, burst forth from his fingertip!

The sword Qi was initially only three feet long, but the moment it left his fingertip, it swelled against the wind, turning into a silver ribbon spanning the Void Realm!

Wherever the ribbon passed, those seemingly astonishing Spells and demonic power attacks shattered and annihilated like soap bubbles!

Even the Formation set up by those Demonic Generals was torn open a huge gap by this silver ribbon!

"What?!"

The Golden Core Stage Perfection eagle demon's sneer froze instantly, replaced by boundless horror!

His proud military Formation combined attack was actually so vulnerable in front of the other party?!

This... what kind of strength is this?!

Nascent Soul?! Definitely a Nascent Soul Cultivator!

And, definitely not a rookie who just entered the Nascent Soul Stage!

"Not good! Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

He reacted extremely quickly and instantly realized that he had kicked an iron plate this time! And it was an iron plate that couldn't be any harder!

Without hesitation, he flapped his iron wings behind him fiercely, and his whole body turned into a black lightning bolt, turning around and trying to escape!

"Want to escape now? Too late."

Ye Qing's tone was flat, even carrying a hint of laziness.

He slowly raised his right hand, opened his five fingers, and made a virtual grasp toward the dozens of Demonic Generals fleeing in all directions.

"Void Realm, Seal."

An invisible and intangible, yet seemingly space-freezing terrifying force descended instantly!

The dozens of Demonic Generals who had already fled several hundred zhang felt their figures stall, and like bugs sealed in amber, they were fixed in mid-air, unable to move a single bit!

On their faces, extreme fear and despair were revealed!

The Golden Core Stage Perfection eagle demon even tried to drive his demonic power desperately, attempting to break free from this terrifying binding force, but everything was in vain.

"No! You can't kill me! I am the number one fierce general under Lord 'Iron-Winged Eagle King'! If you kill me, Lord Eagle King will definitely avenge me!" He let out a desperate roar.

"Oh? Is that so? Then that's perfect, let him come find me. I happen to want to meet him too."

Ye Qing's tone was still flat, but his eyes turned cold.

He pointed his fingers like a sword and tapped in the air several times at the dozens of imprisoned Demonic Generals.

Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!

Dozens of imperceptible Chaos Sword Qi flashed and disappeared.

A blood point the size of a needle tip appeared on the center of the eyebrows of those dozens of Demonic Generals simultaneously, the luster in their eyes quickly dimmed and dissipated, and they completely lost their vitality.

Dozens of corpses fell powerlessly from mid-air like kites with broken strings.

Ye Qing waved his hand, collecting the corpses, Storage Pouches, and the Magical Artifacts dropped by those dozens of Demonic Generals into his Cave Heaven World.

Then, his gaze fell on the corpse of the Golden Core Stage Perfection eagle demon, and he reached out to summon a palm-sized, pitch-black token, with a silver eagle pattern engraved on the front and the character "Wing" engraved on the back, which fell into his hand.

"The number one fierce general under the Iron-Winged Eagle King? Just this?"

Ye Qing played with the token, shaking his head speechlessly.

"It seems that the subordinates of this 'Iron-Winged Eagle King' are not that great either. They can't even take one of my moves, yet they dare to call themselves the number one fierce general?"

He casually put the token into his Cave Heaven, stopped thinking about it, turned into an escape light again, and flew toward Zhenbei City.

"Now, that 'Iron-Winged Eagle King' is probably going to be so angry he vomits blood. First the vanguard team was wiped out, then three commanders were killed, and now even his number one fierce general has been lost. How many troops does he have left to use?"

He was in a great mood and even hummed a little unknown tune.

"However, this also gave me a reminder. That 'Iron-Winged Eagle King' has probably already targeted me. I have to be more careful in my actions in the future."

He calculated in his heart, his escape light cutting through the night sky, and soon disappeared into the horizon.

Inside his body, the 38,000-zhang Cave Heaven World, because it had devoured the essence of dozens of Golden Core Stage Demonic Generals again, began to expand slowly and steadily once more.

The fed-back Chaos Infant Essence poured into his Dantian like a great river, nourishing his Nascent Soul and Physical Body.

He was one step closer to the Mid-Nascent Soul Stage.
