Chapter 583 Consecutive Slaying of Demon Kings
The war between the Demon Clan and the Human Clan can be roughly divided into three phases.
The first phase naturally saw the Humans achieve a great victory. Led by Yu Jiu, they drove the Demon Clan into the Northwest Wilderness to eat sand. In the early days, when the court established the Demon Suppression Pass, if they lacked materials, they would even venture into the Northwest Wilderness to hunt demons.
At that time, the martial sects desired demon materials and had to plead with the court to gain the qualification to enter the Demon Suppression Pass and hunt demons.
The second phase occurred over a thousand years later when the power of the Great Zhou declined, and the Demon Clan caught their breath. The two sides engaged in mutual attacks, maintaining a back-and-forth struggle.
But in the last thousand years, the Demon Suppression Pass has ceased to suppress the demons, serving only as a defensive bulwark.
From initially attacking every two or three hundred years to now attacking every few decades, the frequency of the Demon Clan's assaults has become increasingly frequent.
The Demon Kings present aren't that old, none of them even reaching five hundred years.
To them, the Demon Clan attacking the Human Clan is normal; when did the Human Clan dare to openly attack the Demon Clan?
Especially with this guy in front of them being so arrogant!
"Kill him! If we can't deal with this human youngster, how can we face the Demon Emperor next?"
The Profound Heaven Eagle King roared in anger, transforming into a colossal demon body, becoming a jet-black heavenly eagle soaring across the sky. With a flap of its wings, countless feathers turned into a vast rain of black sword qi, descending upon Han Zheng!
The Red Flame Tiger King was enveloped in Red Essence Demonic Fire, hot enough to boil gold and melt copper, wielding a crimson horse-chopping saber, sweeping a torrent of Red Essence Demonic Fire towards Han Zheng.
The Poisonous Spider King appeared as a seductive woman wearing sheer gauze.
At this moment, she spread her hands, and brilliantly colored spider webs blossomed, swelling with the wind, heading straight for Han Zheng.
The poison in these webs was incredibly vile, capable of even polluting Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi. Just a drop of blood touched by them could spread throughout the body, eroding all Qi and blood.
Among the four Demon Kings, the most peculiar was the Thousand Illusions Spirit King, whose entire body was shrouded in a vague mist, only vaguely revealing a shape dancing within that seemed humanoid yet with several twisting arms.
The Thousand Illusions Spirit King's true form was a Devil Mirage, its frontal combat power the weakest of the four Demon Kings, possibly not even matching a True Pill Realm Martial Artist.
But given enough room to operate, the Thousand Illusions Spirit King's strength was absolutely astounding.
Observing closely, the Thousand Illusions Spirit King waved its many arms, releasing colorful bubbles that dispersed and transformed into a giant seven-colored bubble, enclosing Han Zheng.
These bubbles were full of phantasm, containing vapor capable of eroding the Yang God.
If affected for long enough by this vapor, one would completely fall into an illusion realm, getting lost within.
However, this vapor required time to take effect, so the Thousand Illusions Spirit King needed others to cooperate when making its move.
The four Demon Kings attacked simultaneously, unleashing devastating power with both close combat and long-range assaults.
They simply didn't believe that such a net could fail to kill this human youngster!
Han Zheng smirked sinisterly at them, and the instant the Red Flame Tiger King attacked, he quickly formed a seal technique with his hands, and a boundless blood sea emerged.
The blood sea roiled turbulently, enveloping the Red Flame Tiger King, along with the feathers of the Profound Heaven Eagle King, the poison webs of the Poisonous Spider King, and the bubbles of the Thousand Illusions Spirit King.
Although powerful, the blood sea was disregarded by the four Demon Kings.
This offensive was insufficient to harm them!
But just then, blazing Burning Sky Flames erupted within the boundless blood sea!
No matter the level of Qi and blood power, it was all incinerated to ash by the immeasurable Burning Sky Flames!
Blood Prison Burning Sky!
In an instant, all of Han Zheng's Qi and blood ignited, severing even the lifeline for a brief moment.
Yet the very next moment, Han Zheng summoned the power of the Blood Jade Linglong, and a surge of pure, rich, divine Qi and blood poured into his body.
The appearance of Blood Prison Burning Sky left the four Demon Kings utterly dumbfounded.
Who begins a fight by using such a powerful move right away?
Han Zheng was essentially opting for mutual destruction!
Whether it was domains, poison nets, or bubbles, all dissipated amidst the formidable blood flames that promised to consume the heavens and earth.
The most miserable was the Red Flame Tiger King.
Its innate divine ability, the Red Essence Demonic Fire, was aggressive and fierce.
Unfortunately, under the supreme secret technique Blood Prison Burning Sky of the Blood God Scripture, it was no more than a flickering flame.
The Red Flame Tiger King watched as its own Red Essence Demonic Fire was swallowed by the boundless flames, unable to utter even a single wail before being incinerated into a pile of ashes!
[Demon King of the Yang God Realm slain, obtained sixty thousand Demon Essence, one hundred Soul Crystals]
Han Zheng had promised to save a Demon Core for Yan Xuankong, but the Red Flame Tiger King's Demon Core turned to ashes under the Blood Prison Burning Sky.
This move left the remaining three Demon Kings stunned.
Han Zheng didn't pause at all; he transformed into a Blood River, instantly turning into a blood light streaking toward the Thousand Illusions Spirit King.
Having used Blood Prison Burning Sky, Han Zheng's whole body had exhausted its Qi and blood, relying solely on the Qi and blood provided by Blood Jade Linglong to sustain life.
Han Zheng's complexion remained pale, yet his body was suffused with a red light coursing through, as the power of the Blood Jade Linglong continually replenished his depleted meridians.
Previously, Han Zheng needed time to assimilate the divine Qi and blood from the Blood Jade Linglong.
But after using Blood Prison Burning Sky multiple times, Han Zheng had refined himself to the point of not needing time to digest, able to fight while continuously absorbing this Qi and blood power.
Seeing Han Zheng approaching, the Thousand Illusions Spirit King emitted a shrill screech.
The yin spirit of the Thousand Illusions Spirit King manifested, a similarly vague humanoid, emitting an inaudible screech at Han Zheng to daunt his Yang God.
Yet the next moment, a roaring Ape Demon illusion took shape behind Han Zheng, forming a Dharma Seal and roaring to the heavens.
Ape Demon Nine Transformations, Chasing Ghosts!
With one seal, it nearly shattered the yin spirit of the Thousand Illusions Spirit King.
Following that, Han Zheng threw a punch, shattering the mists surrounding the Thousand Illusions Spirit King.
But in an instant, a massive shell suddenly enveloped the Thousand Illusions Spirit King, barring Han Zheng's entry.
The Ape Demon roared again, delivering a punch, Ape Demon Splitting Earth!
With a deafening explosion, the shell was shattered.
Han Zheng's punch seemed to plunge into a soft, sticky mass, as the Thousand Illusions Spirit King's wail echoed, stirring it into bits, extracting a dazzling seven-colored Demon Core.
[Demon King of the Yang God Realm slain, obtained one hundred thousand Demon Essence, two hundred Soul Crystals]
Casually tossing the sticky mess of flesh onto the ground, Han Zheng frowned slightly.
"Quite disgusting."
Even after slaying the Thousand Illusions Spirit King, Han Zheng hadn't discerned its true form hidden within the mist.
Its physical body was too frail; Han Zheng's punch crushed it outright.
Killing it only yielded one hundred thousand Demon Essence, the smallest amount ever gained.
However, the number of Soul Crystals was abundant, twice that of ordinary Yang God Realm martial artists and Demon Kings.
The Profound Heaven Eagle King and the Poisonous Spider King had long wanted to intervene, but Han Zheng was too rapid, and the Thousand Illusions Spirit King's defensive power too weak, leaving them only just regaining composure only to find it already slain.
Moreover, the Profound Heaven Eagle King and the Poisonous Spider King were not in great shape either.
The Profound Heaven Eagle King had refined its black domain into a sword, both weapon and body feather connected to its Qi and blood.
The webs of the Poisonous Spider King were similar, forged from its exhaustive Qi and blood demonic power, not disposable.
Yet all of it was annihilated by Han Zheng's one move, Blood Prison Burning Sky!
Without hesitation, Han Zheng aimed a sinister smile at them, transformed into a Blood River, and dashed straight towards the Poisonous Spider King!
