The Healer More Powerful Than A Warrior - Chapter 407 - 407: Demonization

Tao Meng was pondering where to move next, but the sharp pain from his wound made him grit his teeth in agony.

“Damn it, Tu Mengmeng, you’d better pray you don’t fall into my hands. Otherwise, I’ll torment you a thousand times over to quell the hatred in my heart…”

If not for his extraordinary attributes, he would have been slain by a single sword stroke and wouldn’t have lasted until now.

Fortunately, as a follower of the Flesh and Blood Demon God, all he needed was to devour enough flesh and blood, and he could quickly return to his peak state.

Of course, even if left unattended, with the divine power of the Demon God sheltering him, his wounds could rapidly heal.

Wounds like these would be a death sentence for human Professionals without healing, yet now they were slowly mending.

“There’s really nowhere else to go. Just give me another two or three days, and I should be fully recovered…” Tao Meng grinned and finally decided to stay in this area.

In his view, no place was safer than this region.

This was the edge of the territory of the Thousand-eyed Giant Snake. No one dared to cause trouble here, not even the Demon Hunting Army, which had to act discreetly.

Otherwise, he would not have fled here.

Having been with the Demon Hunting Army, he knew their rules all too well…

Without permission from higher-ups, the Demon Hunting Army wouldn’t casually enter the territory of the Thousand-eyed Giant Snake. By the time permission was granted, two or three days would have passed, enough time for Tao Meng to fully recover.

Besides, even if they got permission, so what?

The Demon Hunting Army wouldn’t dare make large moves in this area…

Otherwise, if they attracted the Thousand-eyed Giant Snake, it would be no joke.

At the least, they’d be annihilated, at the worst, the Thousand-eyed Giant Snake’s activities would resume, posing a threat to Shenzhen.

The former was manageable, but the latter was something humanity couldn’t bear…

Though no one knew what agreement Liu Tianyuan made with the Thousand-eyed Giant Snake back then, since then, no top human powerhouse has casually entered this area.

And in exchange, the Thousand-eyed Giant Snake went into a deep slumber.

It turned out that this snake truly stopped its activities, mostly retreating into the Southern Wilderness Mountain Range, causing no further trouble.

Presumably, it was also scared by Liu Tianyuan, preferring to shrink back rather than show itself.

Based on these understandings, Tao Meng had no choice but to flee here risking his life.

He gambled that the Demon Hunting Army wouldn’t dare step into this area…

And it turned out he was right!

The Demon Hunting Army didn’t pursue him, and he found this place, barely suitable for some rest.

“Forget it, no need to move. If that Puppet Master dares to track me, I’ll devour him, perfect for replenishing blood and energy…”

Tao Meng panted, sitting back down on the ground.

…

“He hasn’t left, seems he’s quite confident in his strength.”

This time, Lin Ye didn’t send out the Mechanical Rat but instead let a crow monitor from high above, ensuring they wouldn’t be discovered from such a distance.

Though the distance was too far to eavesdrop on movements or see the specific situation, for now, Lin Ye only needed to know his location.

For the time being, he had no plans to leave.

Knowing this was enough for Lin Ye.

“One more day, and even if he hasn’t fully recovered his peak combat power, he should regain full mobility, then we can lure him into action!”

Lin Ye pondered.

After all, ten days have already passed, so waiting one more day wasn’t much.

Lin Ye was never short on patience or endurance; otherwise, the three years spent in the Alternate Space would have driven him mad.

And it turned out it didn’t significantly affect him.

As long as it increased the likelihood of a successful operation, Lin Ye could wait for one day, ten days, or even a hundred days!

As long as the reward of the operation justified spending the time here.

For now, even though Lin Ye wasn’t sure if Sun Tong’s tool was within that crack, he could wait for another day.

…

After a cycle of sun and moon, about seventy to eighty miles from where Lin Ye was, there was a Demon Hunting Army outpost.

This outpost was established to monitor the Thousand-eyed Giant Snake and had been around for hundreds of years.

Having undergone multiple repairs and expansions, the outpost was quite a complete base, though with the recent years of the Thousand-eyed Giant Snake’s increased quietness, the number of personnel on duty had decreased annually.

Usually, only a small team of about ten people would be on duty at this outpost.

However, recently, many new faces appeared at this outpost.

“Waited a day, still watching from outside?” A tall woman asked in dissatisfaction.

“Captain Tu, headquarters instructs us to avoid provoking the Thousand-eyed Giant Snake,” a team member replied quietly.

Tu Mengmeng snorted and slammed her giant sword to the ground with such force that the entire outpost seemed to shake.

Such terrifying strength left other Demon Hunting Army members stunned.

Tu Mengmeng, as a Fourth-Turn Powerhouse, wielding that enormous sword, indeed possessed frightening destructive power.

The fact that Tao Meng survived a blow was truly remarkable.

“In a place for humans, the demon can go, but I can’t!” Tu Mengmeng complained.

“Well… It’s not exactly that. Headquarters thinks your combat style is too intense, so even if we’re hunting a traitor, they’d prefer someone else go…” The team member’s voice trailed off as Tu Mengmeng’s glare silenced him.

“Tell headquarters if no one comes, I’ll go myself! Tao Meng killed so many of my people, this grudge of mine must be avenged!” Tu Mengmeng said through gritted teeth.

“Alright, alright…” The team member wiped the sweat off his forehead, hastily replying.

There was no helping it; this formidable lady was truly terrifying.

…

Amidst the ruins, Lin Ye stood upright.

“It’s time to act…” With a flash, he appeared above the crack.

Looking down, he saw the pitch-black ravine, like an ugly scar across the ground, very conspicuous.

Within, specks of light occasionally glimmered under the moonlight.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Ye opened his eyes.

At that moment, the suppressed Origin Qi Vortex within his body was completely unleashed!

Powerful Demonic Qi erupted from Lin Ye’s body instantly!
