Chapter 362 The Chronicles of the Deadly High Priest (74)

In the remote and frigid far north, the suppressed demon hides in a deep mountain cave. The black mist within, like thick ink, churns and surges, and through this illusionary fog, the demon takes in everything that happens in the Spirit Deer Kingdom. Seeing the chaos in the Spirit Deer Kingdom and the madness of Lord Ling Huan, it lets out a sinister laugh, its voice echoing through the cave, filled with boundless malice.

"The Spirit Deer Kingdom is finally about to descend into chaos," the Demonic Demon murmured, then unleashed an evil spell. Strands of dark power, like invisible tentacles, traversed the vast space, reaching directly into Lord Linghuan's dream. Lord Linghuan, in his sleep, suddenly frowned, drenched in cold sweat. His dream was filled with scenes of bloodshed and slaughter, and the demonic demon's constant incitement fueled the growing resentment within him.

At the same time, the Demon Lord waved his hand, summoning a wolf cub from his wolf-beast clan. The cub was agile and exuded a chilling killing intent; its jet-black fur shimmered eerily in the darkness. It came before the Demon Lord, knelt on one knee, and awaited orders.

"Zilang, you must immediately go to the Spirit Deer Kingdom and find Lord Linghuan. He is now filled with hatred and obsession, which is the perfect opportunity for us to manipulate him." The Demon's voice was deep and imposing. "You must constantly brainwash him and make him a complete puppet of ours. Let him collect young boys and girls in the name of resurrecting the former king, and use their pure blood to break the seal for me."

A hint of excitement flashed in the wolf cub's eyes. It licked its lips and said respectfully, "I will obey Lord Shamo's orders and will certainly live up to your expectations." With that, it vanished into the darkness and ran towards the Spirit Deer Kingdom.

In the royal palace of Linglu Kingdom, Lord Linghuan awoke from a nightmare, panting heavily, his eyes burning with even greater murderous intent. At that moment, Zilang stealthily infiltrated, concealed in the darkness, quietly awaiting the opportunity to make contact with Lord Linghuan. A far greater conspiracy was quietly spreading throughout Linglu Kingdom, threatening innocent people with misery—all part of the Demon Lord's machinations.

Then, looking at Wu Dongzi, who had been teleported by the Fiend Demon to undergo training, the moment he stepped into the Ten Thousand Demon Cave, a strong, pungent, fishy stench assaulted his nostrils, making his stomach churn and almost causing him to vomit on the spot. The cave was dark and gloomy, with thick, ink-like black mist churning wildly. Pairs of beastly eyes emitting a ghostly green light appeared and disappeared in the darkness, and the deafening roars and howls rose and fell, as if trying to shatter his very soul.

A bear demon, as massive as a mountain, burst forth from the mist, towering over two people in height. Its muscles bulged high, like solid boulders, and its needle-like hairs stood on end, each seemingly capable of piercing a human body. The bear demon's thick paws, accompanied by a howling wind, slammed down towards Wu Dongzi like a cannonball.

Wu Dongzi dared not slacken his efforts, quickly mobilizing his fire-elemental spiritual power, his hands forming hand seals with lightning speed. In an instant, raging flames erupted around him, forming a fiery red shield that tightly protected him. "Boom!" The bear demon's paw slammed heavily onto the fire shield, the powerful impact causing it to shake violently. Wu Dongzi was jolted so badly that his feet carved two deep furrows in the ground, and his arms became numb and almost lost all feeling due to the immense force.

Before he could even react, a pack of agile wolf demons swarmed in from all directions like a tidal wave. They bared their fangs and claws, emitting low growls, their bloodthirsty eyes fixed on Wu Dongzi, as if watching their impending prey. Wu Dongzi roared, and his fire shield instantly erupted with countless tongues of flame, like burning spears, stabbing wildly at the wolf demons. Unable to dodge, the wolf demons were struck by the flames, letting out screams of agony, writhing and struggling on the ground in pain, their fur singed, filling the air with a pungent, burnt smell.

However, the demons of the Demon Cave were not so easily defeated. A slender snake demon wriggled and crawled out from a crack in the cave ceiling. Its scales gleamed with an eerie, cold light, and it continuously spewed black venom from its mouth. The venom dripped onto the ground, making a sizzling sound, instantly corroding deep, bottomless pits, and a pungent, acidic mist spread out. Seeing this, Wu Dongzi quickly conjured a thick wall of fire beneath his feet, keeping the venom out. At the same time, he moved his hands rapidly, gathering his spiritual power to condense a huge fireball, which he hurled at the snake demon. The fireball, carrying a rolling wave of heat, was like a miniature sun, instantly engulfing the snake demon. With a shrill scream, the snake demon turned to ashes.

But the battle was far from over. A much larger lion demon emerged slowly from the darkness, its mane ablaze with flames. With each step, it left a deep footprint in the ground, the intense heat distorting the surrounding air. The lion demon roared deafeningly, spewing forth a torrent of fire that crashed down upon Wu Dongzi like a raging tide.

Knowing the lion demon's power, Wu Dongzi dared not be careless. He took a deep breath, mobilizing all his fire-elemental spiritual power to construct a massive wall of flames in front of him. At the same time, he pushed the fire power within his body to its limit, making the flames on his body burn even more fiercely, transforming himself into a burning war god.

The waves of fire collided violently with the wall of flames, producing a deafening roar. Flames shot into the sky, and waves of heat rolled in. Wu Dongzi struggled forward in this scorching heat. Sweat evaporated instantly, his skin turned red from the heat, and his eyes stung from the flames, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered, trying to find a weakness in the lion demon.

Just as he was about to launch his attack, a fox demon lurking in the shadows seized the opportunity and suddenly launched a sneak attack. The fox demon's tail, like a tough steel whip, lashed out with a whistling sound as it struck Wu Dongzi's back. Wu Dongzi was unable to dodge in time and was struck hard, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His body flew out like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground and raising a cloud of dust.

At this moment, Wu Dongzi's pet, the World-Eating Netherscale Python, finally arrived. Its body was enormous, its scales shimmering with a mysterious, eerie light. It opened its blood-red maw and spewed a black, corrosive mist towards the fox demon. The fox demon screamed in terror, trying to dodge, but was enveloped by the mist and instantly turned into a pool of blood.

However, more and more demonic beasts swarmed forward like a tide, their numbers ever-increasing, seemingly endless. Wu Dongzi and the World-Eating Netherscale Python were gradually driven to the brink of destruction. Wu Dongzi's spiritual energy was nearly exhausted; his body was covered in wounds, blood gushing out and staining his clothes crimson. The World-Eating Netherscale Python was also riddled with wounds, its movements growing increasingly sluggish. Under the onslaught of the numerous demonic beasts, Wu Dongzi finally succumbed, his legs giving way, collapsing to the ground, barely breathing, his consciousness fading, able only to watch helplessly as the demonic beasts closed in…

Wu Dongzi collapsed onto the ground of the Demon Cave, blood continuously spilling from the corner of his mouth. Through his blurred vision, he saw demonic beasts baring their fangs and claws as they surrounded him. Just as his life was hanging by a thread, the image of his father, Wu Mai, dying tragically suddenly flashed into his mind.

Wu Mai willingly sealed his soul in exchange for the Wu clan's survival, but this only earned him the ruthlessness of Lord Ling Huan, who silenced the entire Wu clan. He was the Wu clan's last hope; he couldn't die, he couldn't just die like this...

"Dongzi, live on and avenge me! Avenge me!"

This scene struck Wu Dongzi's heart like a heavy hammer. "No!" he roared in despair. Just then, an unprecedented power surged within him. His nearly depleted spiritual energy was instantly replaced by a black, malevolent aura, which soared into the sky like a raging black flame.

The temperature inside the Demon Cave suddenly dropped, and the originally aggressive demonic beasts were intimidated by this malevolent aura, involuntarily taking a few steps back. Wu Dongzi slowly stood up, his eyes shrouded in black malevolent aura, emitting an eerie light, and the malevolent aura around him was like a black dragon, constantly swirling and roaring.

He raised his hand, and a ball of black flame condensed in his palm. This flame was completely different from ordinary flames, radiating a chilling aura. Wu Dongzi hurled the flame towards the horde of demonic beasts in front of him. The black flame instantly exploded, transforming into countless black tongues of fire that devoured the surrounding demonic beasts. The demonic beasts touched by the flames let out painful screams as their bodies were rapidly corroded, turning into puddles of black liquid.

With the enhancement of the malevolent energy, Wu Dongzi's power was boosted to an unprecedented level. Like a demon god returning from hell, he walked deeper into the Ten Thousand Demon Cave, each step carrying endless killing intent. The once arrogant demon beasts retreated in his presence. A battle of reversal belonging to Wu Dongzi was about to begin.
