Chapter 256 Something unexpected happened
The guard captain continued his slaughter, and many aquatic creatures vanished before him. After becoming possessed by a demon, this man was indeed extremely powerful. Every attack he made carried the power of a cataclysmic event. He managed to stand firm, but he had not completely stabilized the situation; it was only temporary.
Firstly, his magical power is not limitless, and using all of it at full power would be a huge burden for him.
Secondly, there's the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique. Its duration is also limited; after that time, the Heavenly Demon will collect its reward, and the opponent will be powerless, left only to await death.
The guard captain's skill was to continue tearing everything in his path with all his might. Slowly, he actually managed to carve a bloody path through it. It was clear to the naked eye that the number of aquatic creatures had decreased significantly. His current state was indeed formidable.
However, this Divine Dragon Formation has a third layer of changes, and Gu Yuchuan still felt confident of victory.
If he couldn't even defeat an ordinary Golden Core cultivator at the sixth level, he might as well give up on cultivation; after all, he's a dragon with an unfair advantage. Killing such a cultivator would be a piece of cake.
"The third level of the Divine Dragon Formation: Ten Thousand Dragons Annihilate the World."
The Dragon Gate rose into the air once more, displaying its power, and countless aquatic creatures began to leap over it.
The captain of the guards did not give up. Two huge tentacles appeared on his body. These tentacles looked disgusting, with many suckers on them. If you looked closely, you could see dripping slime and even smell a nauseating odor. However, their power seemed to be formidable.
Gu Yuchuan accelerated the operation of the formation, and soon, more than a dozen divine dragons appeared. Although these were only in the form of dragons, each of them possessed the strength of the Golden Core stage. They formed a formation in the air, and dark clouds covered the area, with countless bolts of lightning brewing within. The dragon also flew up and entered the dark clouds.
Gu Yuchuan felt disgusted looking at the tentacle; he didn't want to be near it. He flashed back to his original form and flew into the thunderclouds. Only then was the formation truly complete. Gu Yuchuan intertwined with the formation, unleashing his most powerful attack.
In the sky, lightning swirled, and only the faint outline of a divine dragon could be seen. Finally, divine thunder descended, and countless bolts of lightning struck down, including Gu Yuchuan's own water mines. This was truly an all-out effort; he believed that with this, his opponent would have no chance of survival. This was the power of lightning.
Lightning's ability to ward off evil is at its peak; any evil spirit is restrained by lightning. It turns out that this guard captain is a pure and upright human, protected by the dynasty's fortune, so he is definitely not an evil spirit. Lightning cannot restrain him in terms of attributes.
But he has become possessed by a demon. This demon is the greatest evil spirit, and lightning is extremely effective against him.
Lightning struck him, producing plumes of blue smoke. The guard captain began to scream, clearly in great pain. However, Gu Yuchuan, who was attacking with all his might, gave him no chance to resist. He was thus reduced to smoke by the lightning.
Gu Yuchuan plummeted from the sky to the ground, and the Myriad Dragon Diagram returned to his body. Outside, the Xuan Turtle Demon General swiftly helped him up. He was shocked to see that Gu Yuchuan was alone; his sworn brother had only been a Golden Core cultivator for less than a year. How could such a seasoned Golden Core expert be killed like this? Moreover, it seemed that Gu Yuchuan was only exhausted, his magical power was overloaded, and there were no obvious injuries, indicating that the situation was under his control.
"Congratulations, Third Brother. Your strength has become so unfathomable. Don't worry, I've already killed that prince outside. They've both died at our hands. We've won."
Gu Yuchuan nodded. Although the battle wasn't particularly dangerous, it had still drained a lot of his magical energy, leaving him extremely tired.
"Alright, brother, let's find a place to meditate and recover our mana and injuries. I'm in terrible shape, and piloting the flying boat would be too much of a strain on me. I can manage, but let's wait a bit."
The Xuan Turtle Demon General naturally wouldn't say anything against it: "Alright, hurry up and recover. After all, this is the wilderness. I'll stay here to protect you. I might be able to handle some minor problems."
Suddenly, a woman's voice rang out: "Hahahaha, I see you can't solve these problems. You didn't expect this, did you? There were two groups trying to ambush you. Luckily, those two idiots went first, otherwise, I would be the one dead. How wonderful, killing such a prodigy would be such a great gain."
A woman dressed in a black bodysuit appeared before them. Her clothes were very daring, with a lot of skin exposed. She also had a black snake tattoo on her face, making her look strange yet alluring.
Gu Yuchuan didn't speak, but instead swallowed a few pills to restore his mana. He tried to recover his mana. This woman seemed to be at the sixth level of the Golden Core stage, just like the guard captain from before. However, he couldn't use the Divine Dragon Formation again now and needed to stall for a while.
Even without Gu Yuchuan's command, the Xuan Turtle Demon General knew that his task was to stall for time: "We don't know what kind of name this senior is. What do you want? We can give you anything. There is no enmity between us, so why make it a life-or-death struggle? If the senior wants some resources and finances, we will give them to you. Let's part ways amicably."
The other party laughed again: "Listen, my name is Lady Black Jade. How about it, you've heard of my name, haven't you? I'm a demonic cultivator who enjoys killing and robbing. As for your wealth, I'll take it all after I kill you."
Although the two demons did not often roam among humans, they had heard of the name of Lady Black Jade. Her reputation was extremely bad, and many forces had even put bounties on her. She was a thoroughly demonic cultivator.
This demonic cultivator is completely different from the last guard who fell into demonic possession. This demonic path belongs to the human-demon lineage, just like the immortal path. They follow the path to immortality, but the immortal path absorbs the light and ethereal energy of heaven and earth, while the demonic path absorbs the earthly and malevolent energy of heaven and earth. But in essence, both aim to cultivate to the level of a celestial immortal. This human-demon lineage is currently the most prevalent among demonic cultivators.
Not only among humans, but even among the demon race, there are quite a few demonic monsters. The term "demons and monsters" refers to this group of cultivators.
