Above Black Wind Mountain, Granny Sparrow and Bai Shuang vanished, and the bull-headed Demon Ancestor disappeared along with them.
Calling it disappearance was not entirely accurate, because in the eyes of Mo Fan and the other great demons, all three were swallowed in one gulp by the colossal black bull phantom that reached from earth to heaven.
Such a world-shocking spectacle greatly startled the demons.
Yet what shocked the various Demon Kings even more was the sword strike Granny Sparrow delivered just as she vanished.
Granny Sparrow had disappeared, but the golden flame sword qi that cleaved the sea of clouds in two did not vanish.
With one sweep of the sword, two bull heads flew high into the air, and another bull-headed, human-bodied Demon King was directly sliced in half.
One sword slew three kings.
Among them was even a peak King Realm great demon.
Even Mo Fan was left staring dumbfounded at the scene before him.
Though he knew that sword was terrifying and immensely powerful, this was simply too immense.
The bull-headed Demon Ancestor probably had not anticipated this turn of events either.
Of the four Demon Kings, three were dead before they could even truly act.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Mo Fan quickly recovered and cried out in heartfelt pain, “What a waste. Such a waste.”
Then his gaze swept towards the bull-headed cultivator fleeing into the distance. He shouted in shock and anger, “Quick. Stop that bull head. We absolutely cannot let him escape.”
As Mo Fan spoke, Black Cloth immediately gave chase.
Mo Fan then looked at the three falling corpses from the sky and instructed, “These are the bodies of great demons. Every part is treasure. Do not waste them. Drag them back and prepare a feast for the young ones.”
“The king’s idea is brilliant.”
“This general loves feasts.”
Wolf Xiong’s eyes lit up, and he also flew out.
Mo Fan sat steadily at the peak of Black Wind Mountain, his eyes slightly narrowed as he gazed at the heaven-reaching black bull phantom. In his mind, he pondered whether to summon the three Ghost Ancestors to act.
However, the moment this thought arose, he saw a golden flame beam shoot out from within the black bull phantom. The latter instantly disintegrated.
“They have appeared.”
The great demons of Black Water River exclaimed in surprise.
In fact, there was no need for them to say anything. At this moment, Mo Fan and the others had already seen the three figures.
Granny Sparrow and Bai Shuang stood calmly in the void, while the bull-headed Demon Ancestor opposite them was covered in blood. A trace of disbelief filled his eyes.
The bull-headed Demon Ancestor lowered his head to look at a line of blood on his chest, from which fresh blood was gushing out.
At this point, his aura was rapidly declining, the light in his eyes quickly dimming, and his vitality swiftly dissipating.
“So that is how it is… The sword in your hand is the immortal sword that the Fire Phoenix Holy King obtained from the Dragon Ruins, is it not?” The bull-headed Demon Ancestor smiled bitterly.
“Correct. To die beneath an immortal sword, you can rest in peace.”
Granny Sparrow nodded, then instructed Bai Shuang beside her, “Bai girl. Disrupt the void.”
“Yes, Granny.”
Bai Shuang nodded. With a casual wave of her hand, a talisman drifted out.
Hum…
The Minor Void Talisman activated, completely disrupting the space within a hundred zhang radius and directly cutting off any possibility of the bull-headed Demon Ancestor teleporting away.
“Heh…”
Feeling the void disrupted, a bitter smile appeared on the bull’s face. Then he gritted his teeth and said gravely, “This ancestor has roamed the Hundred Thousand Mountains for centuries. I have been forced into desperate situations by many powerful enemies, yet I survived them all in the end.
This time will be no exception.”
As his words fell, his pupils instantly turned grey-white. Vitality ceased, and his upper body slid apart along the blood line, splitting his entire frame in two.
But at that very moment, a golden light shot out from between his brows, moving extremely fast towards the distance.
“This old woman has long been waiting for your demon infant. Where do you think you can escape to?”
Granny Sparrow sneered coldly. Five-coloured lights manifested behind her, condensing into a seven-coloured peacock.
Swish…
In the next instant, the five-coloured lights shone upon the fleeing golden little figure.
“Fellow daoist, when acting as a demon, leave some room for mercy so we may meet amicably in the future!!”
The golden little figure gritted his teeth fiercely, then opened his mouth to sacrifice a layer of black bull hide.
This was his true trump card.
It was also his natal holy weapon, always nurtured within his demon infant precisely to protect it at critical moments.
“Shhh…”
The five-coloured lights shone on the golden little figure, but the black bull hide blocked them entirely, unable to pierce through even a fraction.
Granny Sparrow frowned. The immortal sword in her hand activated once more as she said icily, “This old woman does not like meeting corpses. You had better die.”
Sensing the terrifying aura from the immortal sword in Granny Sparrow’s hand, the golden little figure’s eyelids twitched violently. He immediately cried out in alarm, “Fellow daoist, spare my life!!”
“Though I am a Demon Ancestor, I act against my will. I had no choice but to obey the Holy King’s command.”
“I beg you, fellow daoist, for the sake of us being great demons of the same era, spare my life!!”
As the golden little figure spoke, he continued to flee.
Granny Sparrow instead withdrew the might of her immortal sword, a cold smile playing on her lips.
In just that brief instant, the golden little figure had flown more than a hundred zhang away.
“Hahahaha…!!”
“Old Peacock, you are soft-hearted after all. With your indecisive character, you are not suited to survive in our demon clan.
What a pity. What a pity!!
Having missed this chance, when this ancestor returns next time, I will certainly raze this entire demon mountain.
I will bring boundless fury to take revenge on you fools.
Since the immortal sword has emerged, it means the Fire Phoenix Holy King is dead. I will let war flames sweep across the entire Fengming Mountain demon domain. Hahahaha…!!”
The golden little figure laughed madly, for this time he saw hope of survival. Beyond a hundred zhang, the void had returned to normal. No one could stop him from teleporting away.
“Is that so?”
“How unfortunate. There will be no next time.”
An indifferent voice sounded behind the golden little figure, accompanied by a golden divine chain piercing through his body.
“Ah…!”
“Damn it. Damn it all!!!”
The bull-headed Demon Ancestor screamed miserably, cursing repeatedly. Then his entire demon infant faded and vanished into the void.
He had teleported.
But no matter how he teleported, he could not shake off the golden divine chain on his body.
“Retrieve.”
Mo Fan murmured softly. His divine ability circulated, and the golden tiger pattern at his brow shone brilliantly. The soul-seizing golden divine chain contracted wildly.
In the blink of an eye, the golden little figure that had escaped into the void was dragged back out.
“Fellow daoist, spare me. Spare my life, fellow daoist!!”
Seeing the situation turn against him and knowing escape was impossible, the golden little figure immediately begged for mercy repeatedly.
“Oh no. You are a Demon Ancestor. You roamed the Hundred Thousand Mountains for centuries without ever capsizing. How can you beg for mercy from a minor Demon King like me?”
Mo Fan’s lips curved slightly. Looking at the deep fear on the bull-headed Demon Ancestor’s demon infant face, he felt quite satisfied in his heart.
Just moments ago, this fellow had looked down on him arrogantly due to his status. In the blink of an eye, his life and death were in Mo Fan’s hands. This feeling of reversal pleased Mo Fan greatly.
Divine ability, Heaven Swallowing.
Without further words, he opened his mouth and swallowed the inch-tall little figure.
A demon infant, in a certain sense, is condensed from the divine soul. Thus, the soul-seizing divine chain is highly effective against demon infants. This was information Mo Fan had gained when his Tiger Subjugation divine ability advanced.
However, compared to pure souls, demon infants are far harder to capture, for to some extent, they still possess cultivation and divine abilities.
This was why Mo Fan did not hesitate and chose to end the opponent with the Heaven Swallowing divine ability.
Of course, it was also for the sake of cultivation.
Boom.
At that moment, feedback power surged. A layer of black light suddenly appeared over Mo Fan’s body, and his aura instantly rose significantly.
King Realm, peak.
