Chapter 1423: Devouring the Demon Core

Chapter 1423: Chapter 1423: Devouring the Demon Core

The dark figure flashed past within the Solitary Confinement Room unnoticed; You Ming’s form shot out like a bolt of black lightning.

The crimson Longsword broke through the spatial barrier and arrived beside the Executor, with the defense of the Hollow Void Realm proving to be utterly useless against You Ming’s sword.

"Hmm?"

The Executor furrowed his brows in surprise, unexpectedly someone had managed to break through his defense head-on.

It is known that not even the Underking Guard from Bei Luo could penetrate his Demonic Qi barrier.

"Nether Techniques?"

Dodging the vigorous attack of You Ming’s sword, the Executor turned with surprise to the visibly ailing You Ming, opening his mouth in astonishment.

Yet You Ming, deigning to lower his stature to a Nether God, gave him no chance to react, assailing the Executor with Sword Qi sweeping in like a violent storm.

The ferocious Sword Qi was not merely Cultivator True Qi; the intermingled Nether Techniques were unpredictable, compelling even the Executor to concentrate with utmost caution, taking this sudden enemy seriously.

"You Ming?"

Already prepared for a fight to the death, Su Chengyu spoke out in utter surprise; You Ming’s sudden appearance was completely beyond his expectations.

Blair’s personal bodyguard, Black Shadow, did not miss this opportunity either, stepping forward to face two opponents at once, thoroughly restraining the Executor.

With Black Shadow’s assistance, You Ming, now relieved of pressure, finally found the spare energy to speak to Su Chengyu.

"Sorry, I’m late."

"You’re alone?"

"Yes."

A brief reply, and Su Chengyu immediately understood the situation; You Ming must have acted on his own judgement, taking the initiative to help him.

"Thank you."

"Just doing my duty, no need for thanks."

You Ming spoke calmly, without saying anything extra for himself, his gaze fixed intently on the Executor to prevent any chance of him attacking Su Chengyu and You Ming.

Even having just arrived, she understood that protecting Queen Irina was the pivotal factor in breaking the deadlock at Thousand Tents Palace.

"Why would you use Nether Techniques?"

The Executor directly addressed You Ming, well aware of the relationship between the Nether Clan and the Human Clan, knowing that it is absolutely impossible for the cultivation methods of the Human Clan to use Nether Techniques, even with someone’s complete impartation.

"That’s none of your business!"

You Ming responded coldly, his strength having surged to Hollow Void Realm as he once again charged at the Executor.

Although Black Shadow harboured the same curiosity, the current situation left no room for such concern; he chose to join You Ming in tackling the Executor.

"Eighth Grade War Emperor, Hollow Void third layer..."

The Executor quietly assessed the strength of the two opponents in front, his calm appearance almost making one doubt whether he is indeed a practitioner of the Demonic Path; however, after confirming this in his mind, his face suddenly changed, as pitch-black wings unfolded behind him with Demonic Qi, once again enveloping the entire Solitary Confinement Room.

"How does it matter if the two of you join forces? A foolish guardian of a nation on the brink of destruction, and one who sacrifices his own life to the god of another nation, dare to stand in the way of the revival of the Demonic Path? Overestimating your abilities!"

Boom!

With the unfolding of black wings, two massive black tornadoes swept toward You Ming and the shadowy figure.

The confined solitary confinement room was almost completely dominated by the black storm, engulfing both individuals within it.

Su Chengyu, huddled under the protection of the Heaven-Mending Stone with Irina, was completely unaware of what was happening outside. However, witnessing the changes in the atmosphere outside, a surge of intense unease filled Su Chengyu’s heart as he held his longsword, itching to act.

"Calm down! You can’t help with the situation over there. Without elixir supplements, having used your self-created sword technique twice, your body is already in tatters. Going out now is just giving the opponent an opportunity!"

The Heaven-Mending Stone mercilessly pointed out Su Chengyu’s inner thoughts. It couldn’t understand why Su Chengyu, clearly aware of his dire state, still insisted on acting tough?

All that had happened in the Thousand Tents Palace had long exceeded his control. In this war between a nation and a clan, how was Su Chengyu anything but slightly more significant cannon fodder?

"Who says I don’t have it?"

Su Chengyu spoke calmly, taking out a pitch-black demon core.

Seeing Su Chengyu’s action, the Heaven-Mending Stone exclaimed in disbelief, "Have you gone mad? Not to mention you’re abusing such a heavenly object, do you know how risky it is for you to consume it? It would be better to let me consume it!"

The object in Su Chengyu’s hand was the demon core of the Yamata no Orochi he had obtained in Dongying.

"Give it to you? Can you help me take care of this guy?"

Su Chengyu’s statement immediately choked off the Heaven-Mending Stone’s words.

Absorbing this demon core, the Heaven-Mending Stone was confident it could completely fend off the current assailant’s onslaught and allow Irina to successfully complete her technique.

But asking the Heaven-Mending Stone to also protect You Ming and the War Emperor outside was a bit too much to ask for.

"You better understand, this guy’s strength is not inferior to that Long Xuan you met before. He’s just one step away from becoming an Earth Immortal. Even if you absorb this demon core, you may not pose any threat to him!"

The Heaven-Mending Stone warned Su Chengyu for the last time. However, Su Chengyu’s expression remained steadfast as he intently watched the chaotic battle of the three.

"You Ming came to this place because of me, so it’s impossible for me to hide under your protection and turn a blind eye."

Seeing Su Chengyu’s resolute demeanor, the Heaven-Mending Stone eventually compromised, "Do as you please! Since you have demon bloodline in you, absorbing a demon core is not a difficult task. However, the demon qi in this core is extremely aggressive, you better be fully prepared before you act, otherwise..."

"Don’t worry, I have everything under control."

Interrupting the Heaven-Mending Stone mid-sentence, Su Chengyu turned to glance at Irina next to him and said, "Before I recover, I’ll leave Irina in your care."

"Following you is truly the biggest mistake this Immortal Stone has made in its life!"

"Since it’s already a mistake, then just stick with me to the bitter end!"

Su Chengyu said with a smile and, with no further hesitation, swallowed the black demon core directly.

As the demon core entered his stomach, the rampant demon qi instantly ran wild within Su Chengyu’s body. The Nascent Soul within his Dantian also widened its eyes in an instant, frantically drawing upon the only remaining mana in Su Chengyu’s body to combat the invasion of the demon qi.

However, a good chef cannot cook without rice. Su Chengyu’s body, already nearly hollowed out, had little mana left to spare.

Facing the onslaught of demon god level mana, even with all the divine skills that the Nascent Soul put to use, it couldn’t prevent the demon qi from taking over Su Chengyu’s body.

"What’s happening?"

The Wasteland Battle Halberd in the Sea of Consciousness, still puzzled by the situation, felt something was wrong and immediately spoke up.

"This kid is courting death. Don’t just idle there in the Sea of Consciousness, come out and help quickly. Otherwise, this kid might really become a Demon Man due to the impact of the demon qi, and then you’ll be driven by a Demon Man for ten years!"
