Chapter 153 Ch 153: Sky & Earth Demonification
A few miles away from the East Rising City, a small hut could be seen. This hut was clearly created with ordinary bamboo, however, a mysterious energy could be seen permitting from these bamboo.
To be on the safe side, he left behind only fifty corpses and kept other corpses back in the storage ring.
A huge black vortex appeared inside the hut and all the corpses started disappearing inside that vortex at an extremely fast speed. It hasn't even been five minutes and the fifty corpses of Heavenly Demons disappeared.
Now that Ye Xiao devoured fifty corpses of Heavenly Demons, all he need to do is to provide every bit of energy and blood he obtained from the corpses to his Heavenly Demon Bloodline, and he did that.
A burning sensation spread all over his body and Ye Xiao felt as if he showering under the rain of hot magma, it was terrifying. But Ye Xiao kept enduring the pain and did not give up. However, he did not expect this process to bring him endless pain and suffering, so much so that he chose to give up holding himself and fainted.
.....
When Ye Xiao opened his eyes again, it was already the next day. He had completed his transformation once again.
An excited expression flashed in his eyes. His strength has already reached the Peak of Chaos Spirit Realm. At the same time, the Heavenly Demon Transformation completed yet another evolution.
"Transform!"
Without holding back, Ye Xiao chose to transform and see what kind of change was brought by this evolution.
To his surprise, his height which could only increase to 50 meters previously has now reached 100 meters.
At the same time, previously, his Heavenly Demon body was covered in strange dark patterns and his body's color was red. But now, many of the patterns seemed to have disappeared, leaving behind patterns only on his hands, feet, and face.
His eyes were still red. But... Instead of only one horn, he now has two horns. Most importantly, the green demonic flame could be seen burning on his head. His hair was replaced by the green demonic flame.
At the same time, his cultivation which could only increase by three minor levels previously could now increase by four levels, bringing his cultivation directly to the level of Minor Saints.
Ye Xiao could feel endless strength surging inside his body. He even felt that he could blow up the entire Land of Morning Stars with one punch. But of course, this was just an illusion brought about by the increase in his strength.
The most important thing about this transformation was an innate skill of Heavenly Demons that Ye Xiao suddenly obtained. This innate skill was called <Sky & Earth Demonification>.
<Sky & Earth Demonification> was a skill similar to a domain. In fact, it was a skill very similar to Ye Xiao's <Nine Hell Transformation>. The only difference between the two is their attributes where Nine Hell Transformations symbolized fire and darkness while the Sky and Earth Demonification symbolized blood, darkness, and death.
Most importantly, Ye Xiao could use the Sky and Earth Demonification skill only in the form of Heavenly Demons, but it could bring forth so much strength to Ye Xiao that he could even deal with Major Saints or even Great Saints.
This was a great leap in strength. Ye Xiao could feel he has become overpowered once again.
An hour later, Ye Xiao met Qian Li outside the city and left for Black Fog Mountain.
.....
On the south side of the Black Fog Mountain, there was a very wide road that led from the East Rising City to another big city in the west called Gold Mining City.
Currently, hundreds of people could be seen hiding in the woods by the roadside on the south side of Black Fog Mountain. They held weapons in their hands and looked at the sides of the road from time to time. Clearly, they were waiting for something.
"Why aren't they here yet?"
In the crowd, a man wearing a black robe impatiently spat a strand of grass onto the ground and asked coldly.
"Sixth Leader, don't be anxious. According to our intel, there will definitely be a group of fat sheep coming over today. After robbing them, our harvest won't be much worse than Eighth Leader."
Besides the man, a middle-aged man with a mustache said in a low voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, the previous man snorted coldly and said, "It was his luck that allowed him to bump into a fat sheep. After he succeeded, he almost rode on my head. What a bastard!"
"Yes, yes, you're right."
The middle-aged man nodded his head repeatedly.
This man called Sixth Leader was Zhu Yun, and he was one of the nine leaders of the bandit group living in Black Fog Mountain. At the same time, he was also a "Worm".
"Coming, those group of fat sheep is coming."
At this moment, a slight disturbance came from the group of bandits near the rear of the group.
Very quickly, the ground trembled. Zhu Yun and the others in the forest were shocked. They hurriedly looked over and saw a long team coming from the distance.
The caravan was dozens of meters in front and back. It seemed that more than 50 people were escorting the goods. The goods were not ordinary. According to the intel, the goods were actually treasures of all kinds, and their grade was no lower than Soulbound.
"Damn it, after making us wait for so long, they are finally here!"
Zhu Yun's eyes instantly lit up, as if he was looking at a fat sheep. Beside him, the expressions of the hundreds of bandits were exactly the same.
After confirming the value of the caravan, Zhu Yun immediately looked at the leader of the caravan. Then he observed a few more people who were giving off a powerful aura. These people were all holding onto the hilts of their swords, looking around vigilantly.
"Other than those weaker people, there are only two warriors at the Third Stage of Spirit Fusion. Hehehe, they are here to deliver treasures to us!"
Zhu Yun sneered and gave the man with the mustache a meaningful look, "Don't be in a hurry. Let's put them in front of us before we attack. Be ruthless and kill them with one strike!"
They had set up an ambush here. It would not make sense if they did not use some dirty tricks. When they received the news, they decided to attack. They had already dug traps and ambushes on the road ahead.
Once the caravan passed by, those traps would not be able to threaten warriors at the Third Stage of Spirit Fusion, but the caravan and weaker warriors behind them would not be able to escape the calamity.
At that time, it would be easy for Third Stage Spirit Fusion warriors to escape, and the bandits would not stop them. However, if they wanted to take away the goods that were in danger, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens. This was also the main purpose of the bandits led by the Sixth Leader who also happened to be a Minor Saint. They only wanted the goods. As for killing people, it depends on their moods.
"Stop!"
At this moment, the leader of the caravan, Ming Xiao's facial expression changed. Suddenly, he slashed out with his blade toward the woods beside the road.
Then, he heard a miserable scream. A bandit who was closer to the main road had revealed his existence and was killed by Ming Xiao's blade.
"There's an ambush, retreat! The leader of the team, turn around and cover the rear!"
Ming Xiao roared, and the entire caravan immediately began to change. All the warriors protecting the caravan surrounded the caravan, protecting it and showing their well-trained experience. In less than ten seconds' time, they had already prepared to have a fierce fight.
This is the Black Fog Mountain and many loots, steal, murder, rape, and other such things have happened during this period of time to the people crossing this mountain.
Since the caravan was moving so many treasures, how could they go unprepared? They had clearly prepared for the worst scenario.
And now, it seems that their preparation was worth it. It was now bearing fruit.
However, the leader of the bandits was a Minor Saint. How could they be Sixth Leader's match?
Zhu Yun did not take action immediately. Ming Xiao's actions seemed to make him provide enjoyment. He was also not worried about anything. Seeing the current situation, he stepped forward, waved his sword, and shouted, "Brothers, follow me. Don't let these fat sheep run away!"
As soon as his voice faded, his followers shouted loudly and charged toward Ming Xiao.
And very soon, a fierce battle started.
If the people protecting the caravan lost, they will not only lose all the treasures, but they might also lose their lives.
However, if they could win, they could make a fortune from this trip to the Gold Mining City.
