Volume 1: 48. Conversion
He was so close to dying.
Zhu Nong kept taking several steps back, his huge, mountain-like body causing the ground to tremble in waves.
It should be said that I've already stepped halfway into the underworld, although I don't know if such a thing as the underworld still exists in this day and age.
His newly formed body was shattered by a single punch. If he hadn't recently comprehended supernatural powers, and if he hadn't been a pig demon with naturally thick skin...
It was only through countless "what ifs" that it managed to survive.
Half of his body was turned into minced meat, and his internal organs spilled out from the opening.
The black-haired girl dressed in white stood where it had just stood. Her white clothes were spotless, and there was not a trace of blood on her body.
Perhaps because the punch was too heavy, when it hit the person, the blood and flesh all fell in one direction, leaving no marks on the body.
It's not a coincidence; in fact, this is the core of this martial art.
Looking at the pig demon's remaining half of its body, its deep eyes revealed no specific emotional changes, but he was still somewhat surprised that it could still live with only half of its body remaining.
The demon's vitality is stronger than Bai Qian imagined.
The force was still too weak.
Zhu Nong stared at Bai Qian, his face filled with fear.
"Who are you?" Although it only had half a body left, it could still move and even see granulation tissue slowly growing out of the gap.
Supernatural powers are a gift from God to demons, a symbol that demons are superior to humans, and humans are meant to be food for demons.
Zhu Nong's magic is simple: survival, or you could say limbs regenerate.
Although its transformation is not yet complete, only halfway done, the signs of its supernatural powers are already emerging.
I was thinking about trying something out, but now I don't need to.
Supernatural powers are indeed very useful, but if they are only useful now, they probably won't be enough to save your life.
"My older brother is watching right at the door. If you dare to continue attacking me, he'll be here immediately," Zhu Nong threatened in a low voice, watching the black-haired girl slowly walk towards him.
"It's not me. It has already taken human form and mastered two supernatural powers. If you back down now, it's not too late." Compared to its arrogant attitude just now, it was like a completely different demon. After taking human form, its mind was indeed more agile.
There was no way to run away, Zhu Nong knew very well that at his speed, he definitely couldn't escape from this person.
Bai Qian's steps did not stop.
It fell silent for a moment when it could no longer be resolved amicably.
The supernatural power slowly flowed within its body. The supernatural power it comprehended was called the Living Soul, which, as the name suggests, was to eat human flesh and devour human souls to keep in the body. It could be used to recover from injuries, but that did not mean that the Living Soul had only this one use.
Since awakening this supernatural power, it has devoured no fewer than a hundred people, and the number of living souls accumulated within its body is unimaginable. It doesn't usually need these living souls, but at this critical moment, they are naturally very crucial.
Its body trembled, and then the swollen flesh rippled layer by layer, and the missing half of its body regenerated, with bright red flesh buds growing inch by inch.
Then its body began to grow, growing from three meters to four meters in height. However, its appearance changed drastically. One tumor after another grew on its blood-red skin, and its head was completely transformed into a blood-red pig's head. Thick, blackish-red blood vessels, as thick as fingers, coiled around the pig demon's body.
An evil aura flowed through the air, and indistinct sounds emanated from its throat, its mind disturbed by a soul filled with resentment.
It immediately gained confidence. After activating its supernatural power, it was several times stronger than before. If it were to fight its previous self, it would probably be able to crush its weaker self in just a few rounds.
I am no longer the weak version of myself I once was.
Perhaps, we don't need to run away now?
A strange sense of confidence stirred within me.
She had only attacked him by taking advantage of his momentary lapse in attention, but now that he had activated his supernatural powers, she was no match for him. Zhu Nong had already decided what to do with her after killing her.
Bai Qian continued walking slowly toward Zhu Nong without stopping.
Seeing this, Zhu Nong stopped talking and walked towards Bai Qian with his bloated body, his scarlet beast eyes staring at her.
The enormous hooves, accompanied by howling winds and malevolent energy, lashed out at Bai Qian, their frenzied energy eroding her thoughts.
With her black hair flowing and her white clothes swirling, Bai Qian turned to the side to avoid its hooves, looked at the pig demon in front of her that resembled a small mountain, and lifted her cloth shoes.
Even the largest body is no different from a ball; the only difference is whether you use more or less force.
Or rather, it's only slightly more durable than a rubber ball.
The pig demon was kicked into the house next door, and the whole house collapsed, burying its body.
However, Zhu Nong quickly stood up again, shaking his head and looking completely incredulous.
How could this be?
Although it was better than before, this kick still nearly shattered his internal organs and woke him up.
Just as he was wondering whether he should find his boss, he noticed that the black-haired girl had reappeared beside him.
The pig instinctively slapped its hoof down, not for any other reason than to block Bai Qian, as it was already somewhat afraid of her.
My arm is gone.
With slender, pale fingers, she pinched the hoof and tore it off, then casually threw it on the ground. The intense pain caused Zhu Nong's tumor-covered face to contort.
Before Zhu Nong could retract his other hoof, Bai Qian tore it off as well.
The mind, which had been affected by the evil spirit, now completely calmed down.
"Spare me..." Before she could finish speaking, the black-haired girl had already jumped up lightly.
She jumped to a position level with the pig's head and gently stroked its deformed, ugly head with her fair palm.
The flower, made of flesh and blood, bloomed. A gentle force flowed through its entire body from head to toe, not violently, like a tiger patiently gnawing at its own flesh, from the inside out, from bone to skin.
What landed with Bai Qian was just a mangled lump of flesh, and flesh doesn't really mean anything. If there's any special meaning to it...
It simply means that the pig demon has been converted.
Liu Si stared blankly at the scene, watching the girl step on the blood-stained mass of flesh, her white clothes still spotless, her five fingers slowly closing in her long sleeves, her black hair hanging down.
It was as if he had simply returned from a walk; his cool and aloof face remained unchanged throughout.
Unable to find the words to describe it, the only thing he could think of were the descriptions he had heard from storytellers before.
A demon lord descends from heaven, and a Tai Sui deity descends to earth.
Volume 1: 49. Footsteps are drawing near
The roar, like that of a tiger, made the pig demon pause in his slap.
The old man swung his remaining left arm with great force, and the air seemed to explode as if a firecracker had been set off.
It hit the pig demon's fat belly right in the middle.
Although the tiger was sick and old, it still retained some of its former power.
The pig demon was hit by a punch and flew out like a cannonball, rolling twice like a ball.
Tong Hui took a step to follow, but ended up killing the pig demon.
The next moment, a middle-aged man blocked his way.
It's not quite right to call it a human; it's more accurate to say it's something that's half-human and half-demon.
Its skin is like a human's, and its hooves have turned into hands, but its face still looks like a pig's, and its big, beady eyes are annoying to look at.
Its ugly appearance was no different from that of other pig demons.
Zhu Qi stood in front of Tong Hui, looking at the old man with a hint of interest on his ugly face.
It's rare to have something interesting happen today; it's been quite boring in the village.
My older brother has been holed up in this small village, researching something, and although he's well-fed, these days are just too boring.
It always wanted to go out, but its older brother wouldn't let it.
Now that such an opportunity has come up, I certainly wouldn't let it pass.
"For a human, you're not bad at all for being able to injure Lao Ba." It looked down at Tong Hui, its gaze sinister as it stared at the old man.
The old man looked at the pig demon blocking his way without saying a word, or rather, he had expected it all along.
From the moment he decided to break in through the main gate, he never thought he would leave alive.
He came here simply to have a clear conscience.
He had been arrogant and domineering for the first half of his life, but after his arm was cut off, he quieted down.
His spirits had also dissipated. When he heard that his granddaughter had been captured and eaten by this group of pig demons, his first thought was to avoid them and wait for an opportunity.
It's so funny that if I were younger, I would have laughed myself to death upon hearing it.
Perhaps they think they should have died long ago, and that there's no point in living like this.
He stands here, wanting only to rediscover the spirit of his youth.
Things that you squander when you're young become things you can only dream of when you're old.
"But that's all. Judging from your appearance, you're a martial artist who has reached the Meridian Opening stage? You're quite weak," Pig Seven said casually.
Strictly speaking, it has not yet fully transformed; at most, it is only half-transformed.
The Meridian Opening technique is equivalent to Transformation, so it's considered half a level lower than the old man opposite, but...
"That's all there is to it," it said.
Tong Hui didn't say anything, after all, it did have the confidence to say that.
It wasn't that it was particularly powerful, but rather the several pig demons present at the moment.
There are six pig demons in Black Valley Village, and four of them are waiting for him at the gate.
If it's just a pig demon that has entered the country, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to deal with it.
But such things don't happen in this world. Half a human form plus a full human form, plus two pig demons that entered the country.
There are still two pig demons in the village who haven't shown up yet; we don't know what's going on.
With that kind of power, he could be a king in the city, so why did he hide in Black Valley Manor?
Tong Hui didn't focus his gaze on Zhu Qi, but rather on the man sitting leisurely at the door.
He was a short, dark-skinned man.
He wasn't tall, less than 1.6 meters. If you subtract a few inches, he'd be about the same height as that girl.
Wearing a short cloth coat and with a simple and honest face, anyone who saw him would think he was an honest farmer living a simple life in that village.
Tong Hui knew that this must be the leader of this group of pig demons.
He sat at the entrance of the village, with a woman behind him massaging his shoulders, and a bowl filled with meatballs in front of him.
Meatballs made from animals raised in the same enclosure.
Seeing Tong Hui looking over, he still slowly pinched a meatball and put it in his mouth, unhurried, as if he was just watching the fun.
Tong Hui's expression was somewhat solemn, not because of himself, but simply because he was worried about Liu Si and that girl.
The two of them secretly went inside to rescue the people, but they hadn't managed to lure all the pig demons in; two were still left. Plus, it was already night, so they didn't know if they could succeed.
It's best to avoid encountering the remaining two pig demons.
Seeing that Tong Hui ignored him, Zhu Qi grinned menacingly.
"Looks like I'll have to twist your bones off before you'll admit it," it said, slowly walking forward.
It suddenly surged forward, causing the ground to shake.
A broad, thick hand, accompanied by a raging wind, slammed down on Tong Hui, while his massive body loomed over him like a mountain.
Tong Hui's expression turned slightly serious. He took a breath and swung his left arm.
With their hands clasped together, the old man's cloudy eyes reflected the pig demon's crazed, beastly gaze.
As if he had lost all his strength, he was sent flying by Pig Seven, crashing into a tree and breaking it in half.
"Cough cough." He coughed up two mouthfuls of blood in a disheveled state.
A huge shadow loomed over him. Pig Seven stood in front of Tong Hui, looking at him with disappointment.
"I told you, it's nothing special." With that, it raised its palm, intending to deliver the final blow to the old man as he departed.
