Chapter 377 A Bright Future
Chapter 377 A Bright Future
Deep in the wilderness, there is a dilapidated ancient temple.
The dog demon, standing six zhang tall with thorn-like fur all over its body and its horns emitting a fluttering red light, slowly transformed into a long-faced man who was 1.9 meters tall and wore a black and red robe.
Although the dog demon had mastered the skill of transformation, its aesthetic sense was still different from that of humans, and it deliberately retained a pair of pointed and upturned dog ears.
The dog demon strode into the dilapidated temple, where a person inside turned away indifferently.
"As planned, all the blood food has been brought to you."
The speaker was Wan Qing.
It turns out that he actually knew the dog demon he was hunting!
The latter gave a wicked smile, raised his forehead slightly, and looked down at Wan Qing with great disdain.
With his hands behind his back, his tall figure exuded an imposing aura, and his mouth was open, revealing a set of sharp, razor-sharp teeth.
The dog demon said in a slightly deep voice, "You are a smart human. My father and I both admire people like you."
Wan Qing's face showed a hint of hesitation, but it was quickly dispelled by boundless coldness.
He said in a low voice, "Stop talking nonsense. Three blood offerings in exchange for three catties of your father's blood. Give me the food."
"Tsk tsk tsk, impatient person. Don't worry, I will not break my promise in order to continue the deal with you. My father is often injured, so three pounds of blood is nothing."
The dog demon smiled indifferently, then opened his mouth and spat out a pitch-black wine jar, which was filled to the brim with three pounds of dog blood.
Wan Qing's expression changed instantly. After sensing the intense demonic power within, he confirmed that the item was correct and immediately put it back into his storage bag.
That's right, he wasn't satisfied with using the blood of the Nine-Leaf Demon to temper his body; he wanted to use the blood of the real Demon King!
With this jar of blood, he can not only stabilize his cultivation, but also improve his technique. If he is lucky, it is not impossible for him to break through to the Divine Sea Realm in one go!
This is his chance; if he doesn't seize it now, he'll never have another opportunity.
The price was nothing more than a childhood sweetheart and two insignificant people.
Even though he personally sent Kim Won away as a sacrifice, he was still very sad.
But there was nothing he could do; he still had a bright future ahead of him, greater talent, and the hope of becoming a grandmaster.
Shouldn't childhood sweethearts help each other out in times like these?
"Alright, I've given you the food. It's time for me to enjoy my meal."
The dog demon grinned maliciously, its head instantly twisting and swelling into a pitch-black dog head, disgusting drool dripping from its huge canine teeth, its eyes filled with demonic light.
Wan Qing cursed under his breath as a beast, then led the way, saying, "Later, you'll put on an act with me, pretending to be led into a trap. I'll point out their location to you, but don't let me down at the crucial moment."
The dog demon wiped away its drool and said ferociously, "Don't worry, this isn't the first time I've cooperated with humans. I've eaten people like you who covet my father's blood essence more than once or twice."
He suppressed the urge to devour Wanqing right now and tried his best to remain rational.
As soon as they emerged from the dilapidated temple, the dog demon transformed into its true form. A six-foot-tall black dog roared through the air and fiercely chased after Wan Qing's figure.
at the same time.
Beside a mound.
Ye Kang and the other two looked solemn.
Jin Yuan sighed, "Qing-ge is always like this. He always leaves all the danger to himself and never lets me take any responsibility for him. I'm really worried about him going to lure the dog demon all by himself."
Tang Yi comforted him, "Don't worry, Brother Wan has already reached the ninth leaf level. In a battle between equals, he won't be defeated so quickly. This matter is foolproof, right, Brother Wang?"
Ye Kang nodded, his expression growing increasingly serious.
Not right.
Something's not right.
This inexplicable anxiety made him very uncomfortable.
Having spent a long time with the Carp God, Ye Kang had become completely convinced of metaphysics.
The Nine Turns Auspicious Star Technique won't lie to you; this is a very ominous sign!
has a problem!
He quietly extended the Moon-Entwining Heavenly Silk, drawing all his array plates over and rearranging them.
At the same time, they are fully engaged in combat, ready to unleash their full potential at any moment.
Just then, a scream came from the horizon.
"Ah! You dog demon! I am a disciple of the Tyrant Whale Sect, how dare you chase me!?"
"It's Brother Qing!"
The three of them looked over at the same time and saw a huge black dog with two horns on its head chasing Wan Qing straight toward the formation.
Wan Qing ran and cursed, which provoked the dog demon to roar repeatedly.
Tang Yi's eyes widened, and he whispered, "There's a chance! Brother Wan is about to succeed! Brother Wang, let's prepare to activate the formation!"
"..."
Ye Kang frowned, keenly sensing that something was wrong.
He possessed the rudiments of divine sense, making his perception far more acute than Tang Yi's. Just now, he clearly sensed that the dog demon was looking this way!
【Ding】
[Mission issued: Slay the dog demon]
[Task Reward: Comprehension]
really!
Ye Kang slapped Tang Yi hard: "Run!"
"what?"
"Something's fishy, run!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a monstrous demonic aura swept over them. The dog demon that had just been chasing Wan Qing suddenly appeared in front of the three of them, baring its fangs and staring at them greedily.
"The blood food smells delicious! I can't wait to start eating!"
Tang Yi's eyes widened in shock. He immediately realized what had happened, grabbed Jin Yuan, and ran away as fast as he could.
At this moment, Tang Yi demonstrated the decisiveness that an adventure enthusiast should have.
He knew Ye Kang was far superior to him, so there was no need to worry about him; the most important thing was not to hold him back.
Kim Won was momentarily stunned; she couldn't understand why things weren't going as planned!
In the blink of an eye, the two escaped, and the dog demon opened its blood-red maw and was already in front of Ye Kang.
An extremely foul stench emanated from the giant mouth; there was no doubt that it intended to bite Ye Kang in two.
At the critical moment, Ye Kang mobilized all his strength, his body resembling a crescent moon.
The first move of the Nine Forms of Heaven Collapse: Crescent Moon Hook!
Boom!
An immense force, like a mountain rising from the ground, slammed into the dog demon's chin in disbelief.
With a single punch, the six-zhang-tall black dog was flipped over, and the sound of bones breaking echoed.
Ye Kang concentrated all his physical strength into this attack, amplifying it again through the Nine Forms of Heaven Collapse. Most importantly, the dog demon didn't take Ye Kang seriously at all and offered no defense whatsoever.
Therefore, the effect is doubled.
With one punch, the dog demon's jaw shattered completely, and countless broken teeth were violently blasted into its mouth, only to emerge from the other end.
This time, the dog's mouth was completely ruined, and the excruciating pain caused the dog demon to let out a heart-wrenching growl, with all the fur on its body standing on end.
This scene also stunned the other three.
They couldn't imagine how a martial artist who had only opened the sixth leaf could knock down a top-tier nine-leaf demon with a single punch!
"Damn it! How is this possible!"
Witnessing this scene, Wan Qing gritted his teeth. Helpless, he could only rush out and stop Tang Yi and Jin Yuan who were trying to escape.
At that moment, the three of them looked at each other and saw a different emotion in each other's eyes.
"Brother Qing, it's you..."
