Chapter 457: Chapter 169: Sun and Moon Demon Body! Hong Xiang, the Vast Elephant!_2

The wound’s flesh squirmed as the shattered tissue sought to reform, but Su Changkong knew that to kill this demon monster with an immortal body, he couldn’t give it a single chance to catch its breath!

“Roar!”

The Giant Ape Illusion lunged forward, transforming into a giant tiger with brown fur that pounced on Zhong Yue, pinning him to the ground. Its paws pressed against his shoulders and its gaping maw tore at Zhong Yue’s neck and the newly reformed head.

“Pfft!”

Zhong Yue tried to push the giant tiger away, but Su Changkong had already swung his blade, severing Zhong Yue’s right arm from the wrist. He grabbed the broken hand and flung it fiercely, sending it flying nearly a hundred taels away to crash onto the ground.

It was evident that Zhong Yue’s severed hand was being drawn back by some invisible force, attempting to return, but the speed was extremely slow!

The farther the shattered body parts of the demon monster were spread, the harder it became to recall them, and the reconstitution of flesh consumed demonic power in a tenfold surge.

Su Changkong, having combated demon monsters and monster warriors several times before, had summarized some experiences in restraining immortal bodies.

“Damn it!”

No sooner had Zhong Yue’s head reformed than the Giant Ape Illusion, now a tiger, bit into his neck and savagely tore, ripping the head off once again.

Su Changkong kept chopping off Zhong Yue’s limbs, sendng them flying far away, which left Zhong Yue scrambling for ways to fight back!

“No… not good… my demonic power is about to run out!”

Dread began to take hold in Zhong Yue’s heart. The Crystal Core he had merged with was merely from a lower-class demon monster. It had been damaged once before by the power of the Divine Seed, which had already drained much of his demonic power. Now, under Su Changkong’s assault on the ground, his continuing destruction and the swift depletion of his demonic power were like running water. If this continued, his death was certain!

And Su Changkong, experienced in dealing with immortal bodies, did not give him even the slightest chance to breathe.

“Kill him!”

Su Changkong, too, was seeing red. He was so close to obtaining the Innate Qi, and even though Zhong Yue had cut in halfway and decided to become an enemy by intending to make him his food, Su Changkong could do nothing but dispatch him.

“Stop…”

Just as Zhong Yue’s head began to reform and reattach, the Giant Ape Illusion, now a tiger, pressed its paw against his head and its jaws ripped through his neck, allowing him no chance to catch his breath, let alone complete a sentence.

Su Changkong could feel Zhong Yue’s life force rapidly draining, signifying that death was near at hand for him!

“Eh?”

But suddenly, an intense sense of alarm surged in Su Changkong’s heart!

Not far away, Wind Sun Moon, who was supposed to be fiercely battling the Ice Crystal Chi Dragon, had inexplicably appeared behind Su Changkong like a ghostly apparition.

To be precise, it was a second ‘Wind Sun Moon’!

“Waste of space!” Wind Sun Moon and Hong Xiang were working together to continually wear down the power of the Divine Seed. However, feeling Zhong Yue’s life force weakening, Wind Sun Moon glanced back and saw Zhong Yue being thoroughly beaten by a human youngster without the strength to fight back. This infuriated Wind Sun Moon so much that he could not help but curse under his breath.

Instead of aiding them against the Ice Crystal Chi Dragon and seizing the Divine Seed, Zhong Yue had engaged a young martial artist, and to add insult to injury, was being beaten to the brink of death. This was an embarrassment for the Life Extinguishing Association.

Yet since Zhong Yue was his subordinate, Wind Sun Moon couldn’t just stand by and watch him get killed while he was there. Wind Sun Moon’s body contorted, remarkably splitting into two, with Monster Qi filling the sky!

One of the figures exuded a cold and chilling aura, covered in a light resembling cold moonlight; the other burned bright red, radiating scorching waves of heat powerful enough to turn everything to ashes.

“It’s Wind Sun Moon’s Demon Art ‘Sun and Moon Body’!”

Hong Xiang was slightly surprised upon seeing this.

Wind Sun Moon’s position within the Life-killing Meeting was rather distinguished. He had merged with a mid-class demon monster Crystal Core, boasting both tremendous strength and potential.

His acquired Demon Art ‘Sun and Moon Body’ was incredible as well, capable of dividing his body into two separate demon bodies, one sun and one moon, not only retaining but also significantly augmenting his strength, his demonic power going full throttle!

Each demon body had its characteristics, one yin and one yang, one for offense and one for defense!

Hong Xiang had heard of Wind Sun Moon’s Demon Art ‘Sun and Moon Body’ but had never seen Wind Sun Moon use it until now.

Demon Arts could, to an extent, be considered a diluted version of ‘Divine Skills,’ which are of a far higher level than ordinary martial arts.

Wind Sun Moon’s moonlike Yin Demon Body still drew the Ice Crystal Chi Dragon’s attacks. As the Chi Dragon exhaled frost, it seemed to be diverted under the moonlight reflecting off his body surface, automatically swerving to avoid hitting him.

In contrast, the entirely red Sun Demon Body, wrapped in roaring demonic flames, stamped its feet and the ardent blaze melted the icy crystals on the ground. Dragging a fiery afterimage, it pounced towards Su Changkong!

“Die!”

From the throat of the Sun Demon Body erupted a hoarse, explosive roar. Its right fist smashed down, entwined with searing demonic flames, resembling a fiery meteor. The heatwave that rose could scorch flesh to cinders!

Sensing the deadly threat from behind, Su Changkong didn’t hesitate; his figure pivoted as the Giant Tiger Illusion turned into a white crane soaring into the sky, grabbing Su Changkong’s shoulder and swooping him away.

“Boom!”

The Sun Demon Body duplicate of Wind Sun Moon missed its punch, destroying Su Changkong’s afterimage, and the scorching demonic flames on its fist vibrated and exploded. With a roaring heatwave thrusting forward, the force shot out like a fiery meteor, traveling over ten yards before dissipating, leaving a long trail of flames in the air!
