Chapter 284: Chapter 246: Past Life Dao Companion, Cyan Spirit Zhenren
Xu Chang’an’s figure flickered continuously across the battlefield.
His Demon Body, which he had long since shrunk, was now only the size of an ordinary person.
With every flicker of his form, one Storage Bag after another found its way into his possession.
Occasionally, he would strike out decisively, killing a Core Formation Cultivator.
Though there were many Human Race Nascent Soul True Monarchs on the field, they all made sure to steer clear of Xu Chang’an whenever they saw him.
Given this Unparalleled Demon King’s track record of forcefully slaying two Human Race Nascent Soul cultivators, no Nascent Soul True Monarch wanted to be the next to try him.
Under these circumstances, Xu Chang’an’s haul was enormous.
However, although many of the Human Race Cultivators in the Cyan Yang Secret Realm were injured, in terms of overall high-end combat power, they were far beyond what the Demon Race could match.
Initially, by relying on Arrays, Puppets, and other preparations, the many Demon Kings and Great Demons of the Demon Race were able to hold their own against the humans.
But as time went on, the tide of battle turned, and the Demon Race gradually fell into a disadvantage.
By now, most of the Arrays set up with Array Flags beforehand had been destroyed. Only a small portion of the Arrays were still barely holding on.
BOOM!
SHHNK!
After forcefully suppressing and killing a Mid-stage Core Formation Zhenren, Xu Chang’an swept his Demon Sense across the battlefield to assess the situation.
Of the twenty-three Demon Kings, only eleven were still alive.
Of the three Puppets he had provided, two were completely destroyed.
Only the Quasi-Fourth Tier Puppet was still barely holding on.
With the battle having reached this point, many of the Demon Kings were already thinking of retreating.
If they had known there were so many Nascent Soul True Monarchs in the Cyan Yang Secret Realm, they never would have come, no matter how Xu Chang’an had tried to mobilize or entice them.
But now, it was too late.
The battle had devolved into chaos. Many Demon Kings wanted to flee, but they were already tied down by Human Race Cultivators, unable to escape.
"That’s about enough!"
Looking at the brutal scene on the battlefield, Xu Chang’an decided to leave.
’The scales of victory are already tipping in the Human Race Cultivators’ favor. For now, the Demon Kings can still keep the human cultivators occupied, but once they recover and the Nascent Soul True Monarchs join forces, it’ll be extremely troublesome for me to leave, even if I want to.’
’Rather than wait for that, I’d better leave now!’
’As for...’
’I can’t be bothered with these demons anymore!’
His relationship with the Demon Race of the Netherworld Mountain Range was purely one of mutual interest, devoid of any sentiment.
’Whether they can escape this calamity will depend on their own luck!’
’If they do manage to escape, their spoils from this battle will be enough to sustain them for a long time!’
BOOM!
Xu Chang’an struck out with a sharp claw, and a Late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator fell dead on the spot.
"The Unparalleled Demon King!"
"Run!"
"Ah!"
The surrounding Human Race Cultivators descended into chaos, fleeing in all directions.
Xu Chang’an paid them no mind, snatching the Foundation Establishment Cultivator’s Storage Bag before quickly departing.
As he fled, a Nascent Soul True Monarch spotted him, but after a moment of hesitation, ultimately decided not to block his path.
Of the nineteen Human Race Nascent Soul True Monarchs, four had fallen, leaving fifteen still on the field.
If they had all united, disregarded their own safety, and focused all their power on stopping Xu Chang’an, he likely would have found it very difficult to escape.
But getting the Nascent Soul True Monarchs to attack him recklessly? How was that possible!?
These Nascent Soul True Monarchs came from different factions and backgrounds, each with their own schemes and plans. How could they cast aside all their reservations and exert themselves for no personal gain?
It might have been possible if their own lives were on the line, in a moment of life or death. But right now...
It was clearly not going to happen!
"The Demon Emperor is gone!"
"Ah! How can this be!"
"Even the Demon Emperor has fled! Run!"
ROAR~ ROAR~ ROAR~
Xu Chang’an’s departure caused the morale of the demons on the battlefield to plummet. No longer daring to fight, they all began to flee.
The Demon Race began to rout.
As for the state of the battle, Xu Chang’an naturally couldn’t be bothered.
He had foreseen this outcome long before he had even begun his scheme.
The Human Race was powerful. His presence alone was not enough to reverse the situation or defy the heavens to change their fate.
All he sought were Cultivation Resources!
Having advanced to the Mid-stage Nascent Soul realm, Xu Chang’an’s Escape Light was incredibly fast!
He didn’t head toward the Human Race Territory, but instead fled deep into the Netherworld Mountain Range.
’Having killed one Mid-stage Nascent Soul and one Early-stage Nascent Soul this time, the spoils surely won’t disappoint me!’
After fleeing a full ten thousand li, Xu Chang’an finally landed on a mountain peak.
After using Array Flags to set up a Concealment Isolation Array, Xu Chang’an began to take stock of his gains.
Several hundred Storage Bags appeared before Xu Chang’an.
He had already cleaned out the Storage Bags of Ruyi True Monarch and Black Profound True Monarch, so there was no need to go through them again.
Among the hundreds of Storage Bags were those from two Nascent Soul True Monarchs and over a dozen Core Formation Zhenren; the rest belonged to Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
Xu Chang’an unleashed his Demon Sense and began to inspect them one by one.
Spirit Stones, Magical Treasures, Array Flags, Magic...
Given Xu Chang’an’s current standards, he naturally didn’t care for the contents of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators’ Storage Bags.
The Storage Bags of the Core Formation Zhenren mostly contained Cultivation Resources, as well as some trump-card Secret Techniques. However, these were also largely useless to Xu Chang’an.
However, inside the Storage Bag of one Late-stage Core Formation Zhenren, he did find two Tier Four Spirit Plants and a piece of Tier Four Ore.
’What’s this!?’
Xu Chang’an’s eyes lit up.
Inside the Storage Bag of the Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, he discovered a Tier Four Low Grade Alchemy inheritance!
He had found some Alchemy inheritances before, but the highest Grade was only Tier Three Middle Grade, which was essentially useless to him.
’This will fill the gap in my future Alchemy studies!’
Xu Chang’an was in a good mood.
Besides the Alchemy inheritance, the Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator’s Storage Bag also contained seven Tier Four Spiritual Items, over thirty Tier Three Spiritual Items, and several hundred Tier Two Spiritual Items.
