Chapter 252: Killing the Demon King
“Even if the source of his power is damaged, don’t forget that the Sky Devouring Demon King still has many treasures. The White Bone Heart-Locking Hook is a relic of the ancient ghost path, and it is not an ordinary item. And the strange water vortex that the Sky Devouring Demon King used just now should also be an existence that is not inferior to the treasure of the town.”
It would be a lie to say that Zhang Qian was not tempted by the World Tree's proposal. Not to mention anything else, the two treasures in the hands of the Sky-Devouring Demon King alone made her extremely envious. Now with the World Tree's proposal and the Demon God's Skull, she had an 80% chance of launching a sneak attack on a severely injured Demon King.
For Zhang Qiankai, there is no difference between an 80% chance and a 100% chance.
"Those treasures are all pretty good, but I won't fight with you for them. If you can get these two treasures, they'll be yours, and I'll never break my promise!"
Zhang Qian was slightly stunned when he heard this, frowning and thinking, "What's going on? Why has the World Tree become so easy to talk to? Could it be that the Sky Devouring Demon King has other secrets?"
After thinking for a while, Zhang Qian still couldn't figure it out. Seeing that the Sky-Devouring Demon King in the water mirror was in a desperate situation, and the Sky-Piercing Demon King was about to appear, Zhang Qian didn't have time to think about it and nodded to Zhan Taixuan.
Zhan Taixuan directly entered the Immortal Palace that could escape from the two worlds. Zhang Qian put away the Immortal Palace and connected his mind to the Heavenly Demon Pagoda. Ever since the Heavenly Demon Pagoda absorbed the blood-red magic power of the demon god in the innate spirit stone mine, the entire pagoda has reached its current limit. Unless Zhang Qian can achieve the Golden Core realm, the power of the Heavenly Demon Pagoda will not increase again.
After reaching its current limit, the Demonic Pagoda has another magical use - shape-shifting!
This magical effect is extremely amazing. Zhang Qian can use it to exchange positions with the demon he has subdued.
Just like now, Zhang Qian is obviously still a very long distance away from the East China Sea battlefield, but Zhang Qian thought about it and activated the magical shapeshifting function in the Heavenly Demon Pagoda. His figure disappeared in an instant, and when he appeared again, he had arrived at the place where Mo Yi was before.
However, the demon Mo Yi, who transformed into the appearance of Zhang Qian, appeared in the holy land of the Hanming Mirage Snake clan. This change was completed in an instant and did not cause any fluctuations in the void.
This was the first time that Zhang Qian used this magical skill. As soon as he stood firmly, he immediately saw Li Qingque and some disciples from the Demon Refining Island not far away.
"This wonderful use is extremely convenient, but it consumes too much energy. Moreover, with the current power of the Heavenly Demon Pagoda, I can only exchange positions with the Heavenly Demons within a radius of ten thousand miles. It won't work if it's farther away."
After trying to teleport once, Zhang Qian figured out the flaw of this method. This method is still subject to the power of the Heavenly Demon Pagoda. The more powerful the Heavenly Demon Pagoda is, the farther this method can reach.
At the same time, this method made Zhang Qian realize that it had some of the same purpose as the devil's method of achieving the desired effect.
Zhang Qian did not take Mo Yi back for the time being and let him stay in Mirage Dragon Lake. He turned around and looked around, and found that Li Qingque had brought quite a few disciples from the Demon Refining Island with him for this battle, numbering several thousand.
However, the cultivation base of these disciples is very low. After all, they have just entered the sect not long ago, and it is unknown what use these disciples will be on the battlefield.
At this time, the disciples of the Demon Refining Island had no idea that Zhang Qian had been replaced by a new person. Seeing that no one noticed him, Zhang Qian quietly left the crowd and came behind a reef on the shore.
At this moment, the giant hand of the Sky-lifting Demon King appeared.
"World Tree, what should I do next?"
After arriving at the beach, seeing that there was no one around, Zhang Qian asked secretly.
Sure enough, the voice of the World Tree sounded: "According to my calculations, the demon king will escape to the bottom of the sea in a while. You just need to go to this location and hide, and wait for the demon king to arrive, then use the Demon God's Skull to launch a sneak attack."
"Is it that simple? Can you deduce the Sky Devouring Demon King's next escape route?"
Zhang Qian was a little frightened.
"How difficult is this? If it weren't for..., I wouldn't even need to make any calculations. I only need to think to make this demon king act according to my will." Zhang Qian's face changed, and he thought to himself, "Terrible, is this the power of the World Tree?"
Following the instructions of the World Tree, Zhang Qian flashed and used the water escape technique to enter the seabed. Soon he arrived at the location indicated by the World Tree.
This is an extremely hidden crack on the seabed. Zhang Qian secretly scanned it with his spiritual sense and was shocked to find that there was actually a small cave in this extremely hidden crack. A trace of demonic energy was spreading from the cave. Obviously, this was a cave secretly opened up by the Sky-Devouring Demon King. It might be one of the escape routes the Sky-Devouring Demon King left for himself.
This cave was hidden very cleverly, and even had many magic arrays arranged in it. Zhang Qian had no intention of going forward to explore it. He carefully hid at the edge of this secret crack, practicing the magic of standing upright and invisible to conceal all his aura.
Zhang Qian did not have to wait long. After a while, he heard the sound of a fight between the Demon King Qingtian and Li Qingcheng and others above the sea.
Pfft!
At this moment, a muffled sound was heard not far above Zhang Qian's head, and a black shadow with blood flowing fell straight down, and its destination was exactly the crack behind Zhang Qian.
"It's really here!"
Zhang Qian's heart was shocked when he saw the face of the black shadow clearly. The person coming was none other than the Sky-Devouring Demon King who had transformed into a human form again. At this moment, the Sky-Devouring Demon King's body was covered in blood, and his breath seemed extremely weak. From time to time, he would grit his teeth and let out dull cries of pain.
"Do it!"
The World Tree reminded Zhang Qian in his ear. Zhang Qian took a look and carefully summoned the Demon God's Skull. At this moment, the Sky-Devouring Demon King was in a hurry to enter the cave in the crack to heal his wounds. He never expected that someone would be waiting here and was going to sneak attack him!
Click, click, click...!
As Zhang Qian activated it, the Demon God's skull directly became a hundred feet in size. The World Tree blessed it with the power of creation. It bared its sharp white teeth and appeared directly behind the Sky-Devouring Demon King, and then released a terrifying devouring force!
Sensing the tremendous force coming from behind, the Sky-Devouring Demon King's face changed drastically. He turned around suddenly and saw a strange skull.
"who is it!"
Without Zhang Qian's command, the huge mouth of the Demon God's Skull turned into a black hole and swallowed up the Sky-Devouring Demon King before he could react!
The Sky-Devouring Demon King didn't even have time to let out a scream before he was ground into a ball of original power by the Demon God's Skull, and then absorbed by the World Tree through that extremely secret passage!
"It's that simple?"
Until the Sky-Devouring Demon King disappeared without a trace, Zhang Qian's face was still a little dazed. This was a demon king who had reached the state of great perfection of his soul, and he died so easily, even silently.
Even though the Sky-Devouring Demon King had suffered severe damage before, he was still a demon king, not an ordinary cat or dog.
"What else do you want? With the supreme power of creation that I bestowed upon the Demon God's Skull, how could this little demon king have the power to resist? Here are two treasures from him. You can try to refine them."
The Demon's Skull opened its mouth and spat out two treasures, a vortex of water and a bone heart-locking hook.
When Zhang Qian saw the two treasures, his eyes lit up. The next moment, before Zhang Qian could pick up the two treasures, he saw the bone heart-locking hook turned into an eerie white light and disappeared without a trace!
"this……!"
Zhang Qian was dumbfounded!
