Chapter 455: Chapter 83: Ancestral Dragon Not a Dragon? Total Annihilation of Demon Shedding (Extra long Chapter, on leave tomorrow)_6

Among the ancient woods, the countless swaying trees faintly formed the visage of a huge, somewhat rigid and grave elder. Weng Cuiyu opened its mouth, issuing a silent decree. The myriad trees bustled and shimmered, then coalesced into a cluster of sharp wood Qi luminescence, which flowed towards the youth at the forefront.

An Jing, wielding the Life-taking Sword, felt the enhancement of Weng Cuiyu’s wooden Qi. He vaguely sensed that as he grew more familiar with the True Dragon lineage and the tree demon spirits, the ’Aging Star Phantom’ within him also showed signs of unlocking.

Relevant to the Nian Quan of the Tianyuan Realm was the ’Morning Star’, to Cang Linzu was the ’Star Suppressing’, and also the currently unspecified, but gradually activating ’Aging Star’.

Among the Seven Luminaries, only the Supreme Yin and Sun had no noticeable movement yet.

But An Jing had no time now to ponder these things. He ignited his Blood Fiend, plundering the vitality within the wood Qi, and even... actively ingested the wood Qi into his body.

"The Wounding Sword Qi of Nian Quan can mobilize the Five Elements. Although I don’t have that condition now, the conversion of wood to fire is something I can do!"

Although An Jing never showed it on the surface, he was indeed a proud man. If others could do it, then he certainly could as well, not to mention that the Wounding Sword Qi was a Divine Skill and Art of Magic that he had developed himself.

The wooden Qi of Weng Cuiyu, if merely ignited with Blood Fiend externally to plunder, would only yield three or four parts. But if converted within his own body, despite potentially bearing a great load, seven or eight parts, or even eight or nine parts, could be utilized!

Boom! Fierce flames rose up around An Jing as the core, then suddenly contracted, consolidating on the Edge Blade of the Life-taking Sword into streaks of fire so bright that one couldn’t make out their exact form.

If it were any ordinary Magical Soldier, it would have certainly melted away—only because the Life-taking Sword was formed of An Jing’s Blood Fiend and Gold Fiend Qi Soldiers without a physical form, and this fierce flame must have been the ’Gold-Melting Flame’ Jin Yanhua spoke of.

Thump.

An Jing took a step forward, his right leg along with his calf sinking deep into the ground of the Broken Blade Mountain Groves.

His tremendous force sent the soil and rocks flying into the sky, and the next moment, a triple-tiered crater appeared where An Jing had stepped, while he himself had already soared into the sky, racing towards the Half-Dragon Demon Shedding at a speed several times faster than when he had retreated before.

The Demon Shedding was initially trying to return to the Primordial Spirit, but it quickly sensed the threat behind it. The seemingly clumsy demon lifted its tail, and like a sharp sword, it slashed at An Jing with incredible speed, creating countless Sword Light afterimages, resembling a blooming golden lotus flower.

Lack of intelligence did not mean lack of Skill; the innate prowess of the Half-Dragon Demon Shedding was so strong it could execute Divine Skills, and the natural ability to perform demon spirit Martial Skills like Shuo Yueying was hardly surprising. Any ordinary Martial Artist who found it clumsy and sought close combat would end up minced by the demon spirit’s sword.

But this time, An Jing didn’t use any techniques.

Because techniques are something the weak use to combat the strong.

Now, as he took advantage of the weakened Half-Dragon Demon Shedding, borrowing the power of three and the method of restraint, seizing the upper hand within the upper hand, did he still need to contemplate how to break through the Half-Dragon Demon Shedding’s Swordsmanship?

"The one who should break this sword is the Demon Shedding itself!"

When An Jing came within a hundred yards of the Half-Dragon Demon Shedding, he swung his sword, unleashing an intensely hot, golden-red Sword Light stained with Blood Fiend energy that instantly pierced through the atmosphere, penetrated the rocky formation of the Broken Blade Edge, shattered the Dragon Tail Sword Light, and swept from left to right.

It was only at this instant that the Half-Dragon Demon Shedding realized something was amiss. It tried to curl up to defend itself, but the fan-shaped sweep of the Gold Fusion Sword Light slashed through its body. The ground shook violently, and a golden wound appeared on the mountain peak, from which red molten lava gushed forth.

As the blaze of light dissipated, the Life-taking Sword in An Jing’s hand also vanished into nothingness. He exhaled a long breath of fiery hot energy, and the scattered sparks ignited in mid-air, then slowly extinguished.

Wounding Sword Qi can result from injuries within the body, attacking with the energy of the ailment... or it can be from actively overloading and drawing in external forces, using injury as the price for unleashing the sword!

It can be used to counter attack, as well as to initiate offense. That is the true nature of Wounding Sword Qi!

At the location of the Half-Dragon Demon Shedding, the wound showed clear signs of carbonization and dissolution. It struggled for a moment, hot flames bursting from its body, and then its body violently disintegrated, turning into rolling Demonic Qi, which was purified by the heavens and earth and refined into a vast expanse of Mysterious Primordial Qi.

"Phew..."

Seeing this, An Jing finally let his guard down completely.

In the Primordial Spirit Cave, the most powerful enemy had been killed. The remaining two Demon Sheddings were like dry bones in a tomb, easily eradicated at any time.

Moreover, from within the Half-Dragon Demon Shedding, a strand of Mysterious Gold-colored aura seeped out. An Jing, quick to react, immediately controlled the Dragon Storing Bottle to absorb it—it was actually a wisp of Dragon Qi!

This should be the sliver of Dragon Qi condensed from the Demon Core during the transformation process of Shuo Yueying, but mixed with Demonic Qi, it had to be painfully shed. Now, it ended up as a windfall for An Jing, who had eradicated the Demon Shedding.

At this moment, the Golden Qi that surged out of the Primordial Spirit Cave was also gradually dispersing. The Immaculate Wood had lost its power after erupting and blocking the Half-Dragon Demon Shedding’s attempt to return to the cave and could only protect itself.

The other two Demon Sheddings, blocked from supporting from inside the cave, also suddenly rushed out, aiming for An Jing, who had just finished absorbing the Dragon Qi and was refining the Xuanyuan Pure Light with the Heavenly Profound True Talisman.

To be honest, if this had been before, these two Demon Sheddings might still have posed some threat. But with Weng Cuiyu awake and An Jing no longer worried about being surrounded and attacked by four demons or controlled by the Half-Dragon Demon Shedding using the Poisonous Fiend Cloud, their headlong rush out was basically suicide.

An Jing silently took out the Tengshuang White, soared into the sky, then drew his firearm, beginning to drop bullet-like Soldier Thunder from above—far away, Weng Cuiyu too was summoning the wind of the armor-wood, gathering wind and thunder, targeting from a distance with booming strikes.

After half an hour, the remaining two Demon Sheddings were also eradicated, turning into continuously burning Mysterious Primordial Qi, purified by the heavens and earth.

Thus, all the Demon Sheddings in the Primordial Spirit Cave had been eliminated, and An Jing had harvested the Xuanyuan Pure Light from three Martial Meridian-level demons and a wisp of Dragon Qi, a truly grand harvest.
