Cultivation: But Not a Game-Chapter 164 - 82: Entering the Demon Country, Monster Snatching
Su Yu looked at Ding Lingyu and said:
"Is this it?"
As he spoke, he reached into his arms and pulled out Ao Run, who was enjoying himself inside the Sea-Suppressing Pearl, giving the struggling dragon’s head a slap:
"Stop messing around, time for a fight."
Ao Run quickly sensed the unusual surroundings, flew swiftly to the edge of the flying ship, stuck his small head out, and looked down. Instantly energized, he let out a howl, dove out of the ship, circled around, and with a flash of spiritual light, transformed into a gigantic dragon coiling in the sky, spewing out a torrent of Meridian Cold Tide.
The eyes of the few lit up, and Xu Lulu couldn’t help but exclaim:
"What a beautiful dragon!"
Ding Lingyu transformed into a divine warrior, pressing down with his two hands and shouted solemnly:
"Qianqing Shangyuan Taiyi Divine Thunder Net!"
The surging mana burned, and one by one, Taiyi Divine Thunders flew out, forming a net as they fell down, exploding with a roar.
"Boom!"
The Taiyi Divine Thunders exploded one after another, instantly turning the surrounding kilometer into a thunderstorm hell, where many incoming bird demons and the furious roaring demons below turned into charcoal in an instant.
With a terrifying force of over a hundred thousand and a kilometer-wide devastating range, all the demons within, along with the buildings of the demon town below, vanished into nothingness.
Just this single strike killed over five to six thousand, swiftly granting each person tens of thousands of battle experience that left them feeling utterly satisfied.
"Awesome!"
All four displayed expressions of utter enjoyment.
"Roar!"
A massive bulge suddenly formed in the thunderous hell, and the next moment, a giant ape over seventy meters tall broke through the thunder like a cannonball charging straight at Ding Lingyu.
But Ao Run intercepted it midway, the ape and the dragon collided and bounced off in mid-air, the dragon tumbled a few times in the air, stabilized itself, and spewed another torrent of Meridian Cold Tide down.
The giant ape, on the other hand, plummeted and smashed heavily into the ground, the dust had just risen before the Meridian Cold Tide froze the giant ape.
Then, two sword lights flashed and intersected with the giant ape. When they joined again, they wrapped around the ape’s body, instantly spraying a circle of ape blood, while twenty-something damage numbers jumped up.
The giant ape shattered the ice and broke loose, leaping up again like a cannonball, charging at Su Yu.
But once again, Ao Run intercepted it in mid-air, knocking it back, followed by another torrent of Meridian Cold Tide and a dual-sword attack.
Meanwhile, the Qianqing Shangyuan Taiyi Divine Thunder Net had ended, leaving only a few bloodied remains within the kilometer radius, yet the demons outside this radius charged on, undeterred.
But being high above, apart from the flying creatures, the vast majority of ordinary demons could not fly, unless like Ao Run, they practiced Qi Refining Heart Skill and could fly.
Moreover, their attack methods were rather primitive, mostly relying on condensing Demonic Power into Demon Qi Arrows, which posed little threat to them.
This demon town wasn’t large, with the giant ape being the only demon over level one hundred, and the rest were below.
This giant ape was only level 122 and couldn’t even defeat Ao Run. Facing a joint attack from the group, it was soon injured severely, ultimately taken down by a combination of thunder and Wan Jun.
"10 taels of gold and 5 contribution points obtained."
Su Yu cheerfully said to them:
"When we hand in the mission, I’ll take the sect contribution, and the gold is yours."
"No problem."
With the boss dead, the remaining demons posed no resistance.
Su Yu transformed into the Celestial Ghost, cooperated with Ding Lingyu, and used the Five Elements Thunder Skill to bombard back and forth, quickly eliminating the remnants.
They finally arrived at the center of the demon town and smashed the keystone representing the demon town.
Whether a town, demon camp, demon lair, or even Demon Country, they would have a representative object. Once smashed, it signifies the complete disappearance of that faction, never to be refreshed again.
Only by smashing the keystone does it signify the complete destruction of a demon town.
Although demon towns and tribes were occasionally destroyed by them, the number of demon towns was never lacking.
Every so often, a powerful demon over level one hundred would come out from the major demon lairs with a keystone to establish new demon towns across the land.
After destroying a demon town, it’s time to collect the spoils of war.
This demon town likely housed nearly twenty thousand demons. Even if the drop rate was low, the sheer numbers meant the spoils were significant, totaling several hundred items worth out to dozens of gold pieces.
Spoils... were not evenly distributed.
Su Yu and Ding Lingyu each took 30%, while Lan Yiyi and Xu Lulu, knowing their inferior strength, each took 20%.
After collecting the spoils, the group soared into the sky and continued flying deeper into the Demon Country aboard the Dragon Scale Flying Ship, searching for their next target.
Half an hour later, several hundred kilometers to the northeast, they discovered a second demon town.
However, this town had already been located and was under attack by another team.
It was a team of more than forty people, divided into four groups. Two teams were besieging two large demons over level one hundred, one elite and one standard, while the other two teams were eradicating ordinary demons.
They watched for a moment before leaving to continue searching for their next target.
Over an hour later, they discovered another demon town not far from the previous one.
However, as they were about to arrive, they saw a Spiritual Wing Flying Ship, clearly slower than theirs, suddenly accelerate and reach the demon town first.
Once confirmed they had arrived first, Xi Muchuan turned to wait for the Golden Scale Flying Ship to arrive and said with a sly smile:
"According to the rules, since we arrived first, this place is ours."
The group frowned, and Xu Lulu questioned:
"Clearly we found it and arrived first, and you took advantage when we weren’t paying attention, not an act of a gentleman."
Xi Muchuan laughed and said:
"Little girl, you can’t speak carelessly about evidence without proof."
"You..."
Su Yu raised his hand to stop Xu Lulu from arguing and gestured:
"Let it be, it’s just a demon camp, these things are all over the demon country, let’s find the next one."
Xu Lulu, somewhat unwilling, said:
"We obviously discovered it first."
"We don’t have evidence, and it’s just a small demon camp, not worth a fight."
Though quite upset, by nature Su Yu was kind and wouldn’t kill over such a minor conflict.
After all, it wasn’t a game. In a game, dying meant minimal loss, resurrected and back in action, but here, death meant losing at least five years of life span, turning small grudges into large ones, and for trivial things like these, it wasn’t worth it.
Without a word, they continued on their journey, heading straight into the depths of the Demon Country.
Thanks to the speed of the Golden Scale Flying Ship, this time when they found another new demon town, no one else contested it, allowing them to purge the demon town with peace of mind.
This town leapt out three powerful demons over level one hundred: a sixty-some meter long level 120 Blue Bull, a level 142 fiery lion wrapped in flames, and a level 110 demon python, all of elite template.
Su Yu immediately identified the fiery lion, enveloped in flames and standing on a fire cloud, as the greatest threat, and spat out the Four Symbols Star Soul Banner, which quickly expanded to over ten meters in height.
"I’ll finish off the fiery lion first!"
A full twenty thousand mana was activated, transforming into a flood that poured into the banner, where a silver vortex appeared on the banner face, densely packed blue flying swords emerged from the vortex, and inundated the fiery lion standing on the fire cloud.
The intense threat made the fiery lion roar, igniting a more violent flame to form a fire shield enveloping its entire body.
The next second, a full four hundred blue Sword Qi shot into the fiery lion, and in an instant, a four hundred-blade Sword Qi burst, instantly tearing the fire shield’s defenses.
The remaining three hundred plus blades of Sword Qi slammed into the fiery lion, where the immense power extinguished the flames on its body, tore apart its tremendously tough demonic body, pierced through flesh, and right to the bone, almost instantaneously reducing half of the fiery lion’s body to a mess of meat.
But it wasn’t over yet, Su Yu took out a Top-grade Rejuvenation Elixir, swallowed it to instantly restore 24,000 mana, decisively spent 20,000 mana to activate the treasured banner, and another 400 Sword Qi came gushing out of the vortex, sweeping over the fiery lion.
-6210
-6220
-6200
In an instant, four hundred damage detonated simultaneously, a formidable explosion exceeding 2.4 million instantly blew the fiery lion into a pile of flesh.
"Oh wow, such an explosion!"
On the other side, Ding Lingyu, who was about to transform, quietly activated the Star Gourd, and the densely packed Celestial Star Sand shot into the air, falling like endless stars, forcibly turning the Blue Bull into a pool of mush.
Finally, the remaining demon python was held down by Ao Run and pounded mercilessly, leaving it with no room to retaliate.
"You two are monsters!"
Over ten minutes later, as the keystone at the center of the demon town was shattered, the town was destroyed, and the four continued on their way.
