At the Crimson Fire Peak, several peerless demon kings engaged in the most intense melee.
The terrifying fluctuations they caused were no less than the roar of a volcanic eruption!
Not only were their cultivations extraordinarily high, but they also wielded secret treasures and various great killing artifacts. In their dharma demon body states, each demon king resembled a small mountain, and every collision would split the earth for several miles!
It was not just the ground; the sky had also become the battlefield of the demon kings.
Under the terrifying auras of these demon kings, Mo Fan did not even dare to escape, fearing that a single carelessness would expose his own aura and bring unwarranted disaster.
Of course, what he dreaded most was the Ox Demon King of the Fiery Cloud Cave, because he had snatched a Earth Vein Fire Lotus Seed from the other’s hand, already forming a grudge. His own aura must have long been discerned by that Ox Demon King.
If he were to rashly escape now, it was highly likely to attract the pursuit of that old undead.
With Mo Fan’s current heavily injured body, he did not think he could escape.
To avoid being discovered by the demon kings, Mo Fan burrowed even deeper into the ground, then cast a breath-concealing technique to shield all his auras, quietly waiting.
This trip to the Crimson Fire Peak had yielded him enormous gains.
Not only had he obtained a Earth Vein Fire Lotus Seed, but also a small section of Earth Vein Fire Lotus Root, and furthermore, a king-level demon soldier as well as a demon king secret treasure!
Yet even so, Mo Fan still did not want to leave just like that.
First, his Life and Death Sword was still inside that Ox Demon King’s body. This sword was extremely important to him and must be retrieved!
Of course, an even more important point was that he was waiting for the right moment!
Mo Fan knew full well how terrifying the poison of the Life and Death Sword was. Although a demon king could suppress the toxin with his inner demon core, it was only temporary.
With the demon kings now locked in fierce battle, Mo Fan did not believe that the Ox Demon King could keep suppressing the poison of the Life and Death Sword indefinitely.
So he was waiting for the Ox Demon King’s poison to flare up!
Another point was that Mo Fan also wanted to play the fisherman once, to see if there were any bargains to pick up.
He waited like this for more than half a day.
With a resounding bird cry echoing out, Mo Fan immediately saw an incomparably massive terrifying mountain descending from the heavens, attempting to suppress all the demon kings!
But that mountain was quickly blasted away.
“Fellows, today’s events, I, Lei Yufeng, have noted!”
“On another day, my Lei Yu Clan will surely pay a proper visit to you all!”
In the sky, the demon king of the Lei Yu Clan had an extremely ugly expression. At this moment, he was bathed in blood, half his body shattered, a truly gruesome sight.
Just moments ago, under the siege of the other demon kings, to save his life, he had no choice but to divide the Earth Vein Fire Lotus Root in his hand and throw away the larger section, thereby preserving his life. After issuing this threat, he retracted his mountain seal and flew off into the distance without looking back.
The demon kings merely glanced at Lei Yufeng before withdrawing their gazes.
They did not take Lei Yufeng’s words to heart.
After all, they were all powerful demon kings of the Phoenix Cry Mountain domain, not so easily intimidated by Lei Yufeng’s casual remark.
However, the demon kings did not pursue and intercept Lei Yufeng further.
Not fearing Lei Yufeng’s threat was one matter; killing Lei Yufeng was another entirely, with completely different implications and consequences.
They knew well enough which was more important.
What followed was another fierce slaughter, but with each of the three demon kings having gained something, and seeing that they truly could not overpower one another, they were unwilling to fight to the death and departed one after another.
After the three demon kings left, Mo Fan did not rush out. Instead, he patiently waited a full hour before finally breathing a sigh of relief.
Just as he prepared to head to the collapsed Crimson Fire Peak, he saw a figure flying in from the distant horizon.
Mo Fan’s pupils contracted at the sight, and he immediately shrank into the mud and stone, not daring to move a muscle.
Only when the figure drew near did Mo Fan see its appearance clearly; it was the Ox Demon King of the Fiery Cloud Cave returning!
“Damn that old hag, I knew it wouldn’t be this simple!”
Mo Fan cursed inwardly, then watched as the Ox Demon King scanned around in the sky.
“Could this Ox Demon know I haven’t left yet?”
Mo Fan’s heart jolted in surprise. Observing the Ox Demon King’s demeanor, it was clearly searching for something, and most likely for him, so he grew even more unwilling to move.
“Why hasn’t this old thing been poisoned yet?”
Mo Fan frowned, on one hand tense beyond measure, fearing discovery by the Ox Demon King.
On the other hand, full of bewilderment. By rights, with the terrifying toxin of the Life and Death Sword, even a demon king should have been poisoned, yet this Ox Demon King showed no signs of poisoning at all up to now.
This left Mo Fan uneasy.
If this old thing truly would not succumb to poison, then would he not be able to retrieve the Life and Death Sword?
“Urgh…”
At that moment, the Ox Demon King circling in the sky suddenly shuddered all over, and then a strand of black qi spread across his body, exuding a thick aura of death!
“It’s here!”
Mo Fan’s spirits lifted at the sight!
He could tell that the Ox Demon King had been poisoned!
Sure enough, the Ox Demon King soon began swaying unsteadily, finally descending on a cloud and mist onto the Crimson Fire Peak.
The Crimson Fire Peak was said to have been collapsed, but in truth, it was not that exaggerated; only the summit had been destroyed, while the entire massive mountain body remained.
As soon as the Ox Demon King landed, he immediately activated his demon core to suppress the toxin within.
After a good while, he finally suppressed the poison, his face turning exceedingly grim.
Then, the Ox Demon King’s divine sense swept out, scanning the surroundings once before he directly leaped into the volcanic mouth, utterly unafraid of the terrifying high temperatures of the magma!
Next, terrifying combat fluctuations erupted once more within the Crimson Fire Peak.
When everything ended, the Ox Demon King transformed into a streak of escaping light and flew out of the Crimson Fire Peak, and by then, there was no trace of abnormality on his body.
With the Ox Demon King gone, Mo Fan still did not dare to emerge, waiting a full incense stick’s time before finally confirming that the Ox Demon King would not return. Only then did he directly use his earth-escape divine ability to burrow toward the Crimson Fire Peak.
Upon arriving beneath the Crimson Fire Peak and sensing the terrifying heat in the soil, Mo Fan had no choice but to break out of the ground, then ride a cloud and mist to fly up to the Crimson Fire Peak, arriving at the massive cracked volcanic mouth where molten lava churned and bubbled out.
At the same time, Mo Fan sensed a familiar aura.
“This is… the aura of the Life and Death Sword!”
As soon as Mo Fan reached the volcanic mouth, he immediately sensed his Life and Death Sword, his heart filling with involuntary joy.
He had originally thought the Life and Death Sword had been taken away by the Ox Demon King, but unexpectedly, its aura existed within this volcano. This meant it was highly likely that the Ox Demon King had forced out the Life and Death Sword!
Thinking of this, Mo Fan immediately used his demon power to sense the Life and Death Sword. With a light shout from his mouth, a massive monster suddenly flew out from the volcanic magma!
Mo Fan was also startled by the sight of this monster.
He had originally sensed his Life and Death Sword and thus activated the demon soldier, causing it to fly out from this volcanic magma. But he had not expected such a massive fire lizard to emerge!
This massive monster was precisely the demon king realm fire lizard that had previously guarded the Earth Vein Fire Lotus in the magma pool within the Crimson Fire Peak’s mountain body space!
“So the Life and Death Sword is actually inside this monster’s body!”
Looking at the fire lizard before him, now entirely blackened all over, Mo Fan finally understood.
