Chapter 386: Which Sage?

The Plague Demon King found that Ling Xiao’s body was truly terrifyingly hard. Hitting Ling Xiao’s body, it was simply like hitting on hard dragon scales. There was actually no effect at all.

“Not good, this king must think of a way!”

The Plague Demon King’s eyes revealed a hint of viciousness.

Boom!

The palms of Ling Xiao and the Plague Demon King collided.

However, at that instant, the Plague Demon King’s hands, which were made from a thick green fluid, actually separated from his body and rushed towards Ling Xiao at a very fast speed.

“Hahaha, no matter if you are some senior or that brat purposely making a mystery of simple things, absorbing the plague body condensed using this king’s 30% cultivation base, you will die beyond doubt!”

Although the Plague Demon King was repelled by Ling Xiao’s palms, his strange green face had a smug grin.

Ling Xiao frowned a little, and suddenly felt intense pain as if his internal organs were being pulled, and he couldn’t help falling down to one knee.

“How can this be?”

Ling Xiao exclaimed in surprise.

At this moment, green radiance gradually appeared on his golden scale, and even on his skin, green lines appeared, which made him look very strange.

In addition, his entire body seemed to be frozen. It was so stiff that he couldn’t move.

“Ka ka ka ka! This king is the most terrifying plague cultivation taking form. Although you are not afraid of the plague this king created, swallowing a part of this king’s body, you will certainly be poisoned. Now, surrender without struggling! Even if this king didn’t fight with you, you will slowly die in pain.”

The Plague Demon King let out strange laughter again and said: “You were honestly too hard to deal with. You actually forced this king to cut off this king’s arms and give up 30% of the main body to poison you. Even if you die, you can consider it an honor.”

“You dare to harm this lord!”

With a cold sweat on his forehead, Ling Xiao asked.

“Ka ka ka, regardless of what senior you are, you actually dared to think about forcing this king to abandon this place, that’s simply wishful thinking! Since that’s the case, you can go to hell with the brat!”

The Plague Demon King continued to laugh: “Oh, that’s right, your body will not rot immediately and deteriorate. This plague will slowly corrode your soul until it is completely poisoned. Then, this body will belong to this king, ka ka. Although this king doesn’t know why senior took a fancy to this brat’s body, since you took a fancy to it, this body must have its forte. This king wants to study it.”

After speaking, Plague Demon King’s thick green body couldn’t help swaying. He seemed very excited.

Ling Xiao noticed that the Plague Demon King’s main body seemed to have become much smaller compared to before. This shouldn’t just be due to discarding 30% of his body. There should also be other reasons.

Because the Plague Demon King’s reduction degree was absolutely more than half.

Could it be that this fellow becomes smaller if he fights with his main body?

Ling Xiao finally realized why the Plague Demon King needed the body. Once the body became smaller, the combat power would also decline. The Plague Demon King wanted to quickly end the battle because of this point.

“No! Why are you not dead yet?”

Originally, the Plague Demon King planned to go over to help the Demon General, but he suddenly noticed that the green radiance from Ling Xiao’s body not only didn’t continue to increase, but it rapidly decreased and finally disappeared.

He was dumbfounded as he looked at Ling Xiao. It was as if he had seen a ghost.

“Go to hell!”

The Plague Demon King knew that something was wrong. Therefore, he hastily attacked, unwilling to let Ling Xiao continue to recover.

Although he had yet to figure out how Ling Xiao was not afraid of his main plague, he had no time to think more about it.

Once Ling Xiao returned to normal, it would be very hard to stop this boy.

Pop!

The Plague Demon King’s newly transformed green right hand was blocked by another big green hand in midair.

Behind Ling Xiao, there was a humanoid phantom with three heads, six arms, green skin, long cyan hair, and three eyes.

And that phantom actually emitted an aura belonging to the Plague Demon King.

“That! What’s that!”

The Plague Demon King felt boundless fear. He hastily retreated over ten feet away, and looked at the phantom behind Ling Xiao with fear.

That martial soul-like phantom terrified him.

“Nine Demon Gods Art-Plague Demon King!”

A sneer appeared at the corners of Ling Xiao’s mouth. He himself was also a little surprised. <Nine Demon Gods Art> combined with the Plague Demon King’s body part actually created a brand-new Plague Demon King Martial Soul.

Moreover, this martial soul was already at the entity phase of the intact soul, and it was so powerful that it was inconceivable.

Now, he was becoming more and more interested. Who created <Soaring Cloud Steps> and <Bull Demon Technique>?

<Nine Demon Gods Art> was derived from <Bull Demon Technique>, and it was very likely that it was an unparalleled masterpiece created based on a martial soul.

Ling Xiao had already guessed so before, but he didn’t dare to confirm it. But today, he finally understood that his guess was not wrong.

If he wanted to learn the complete <Nine Demon Gods Art>, then he might have to take all nine Great Demon Kings of the True Demon Empire into the Landscape World.

Now, he even suspected that all soldiers of True Demon Empire back then including the True Demon Great Emperor were transformed from martial souls.

After all, the martial soul was also a kind of soul. Merely, it was a soul loyal to martial artists.

Once martial artists died, they would become an ownerless existence. It might not be impossible to become independent individuals.

This guesswork was so bold that even he was frightened.

“Hehe, it seems that your main plague is also not so amazing. Even this lord is not poisoned to death, but you still have a vain hope to dominate the world with just this?”

Although Ling Xiao’s mouth said so, he was very clear that the Plague Demon King’s main plague was honestly too terrifying. If he hadn’t cultivated <Nine Demon Gods Art>, then he might have truly died here.

This was definitely not a plague that ordinary Transcendent Realm martial artists could resist.

“Senior! Which sage are you?”

Originally, the Plague Demon King still had some doubts that Ling Xiao was purposely making a mystery out of simple things. But now, he completely believed that there was a powerful soul in Ling Xiao’s body. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the other party to withstand his main plague’s surprise attack.

One should know that, back then, he had killed a lot of Celestial Realm and Heavenly Realm martial artists with this main plague.

Naturally, along with the decline of his cultivation base, the effect of the main plague had also become much worse. However, with thirty percent the main plague, killing a martial artist below Rank Three Transcendent Realm should be as easy as turning his palm. Even a  Rank Five Transcendent Realm martial artist wouldn’t be able to resist it.

“This lord had already told you to scram from here, but you didn’t listen to it. Now, even if you want to leave, you have no chance.”

Ling Xiao showed a hint of sneer and said: “This lord has changed my mind now. This lord wants to completely condense you into this lord’s martial soul. You should feel honored!”

“No——!”

The Plague Demon King ran wildly as if he was running for his life.

Now, he basically couldn’t produce any courage to resist. Ling Xiao was terrifying beyond his imagination.

I must run away. I will die if I don’t run away!
