Chapter 2070: Chapter 2067: The Crane and the Clam in Conflict

Demon Creatures of levels seven and eight are no match for Ling Feng at this moment, so he remains at ease hunting Second-Level Demon Creatures around the Endless Forest.

Apart from Red-tailed Scorpions, Level 2 Long-haired Demons and Three-Eyed Demon Snakes are also Ling Feng’s targets. However, Second-Level Demon Creatures are much stronger than first-level ones, and even with Ling Feng’s vastly increased power, dealing with them is quite challenging.

After a full ten days, Ling Feng managed to slay three Second-Level Demon Creatures, and there was an instance where he was nearly killed, barely escaping with his life.

"Improving strength this slowly!" Ling Feng squatted atop a giant tree, with a trace of seriousness in his eyes. Moreover, with such a low starting point for Long-haired Demons, trying to advance further was proving difficult.

Roar! At this moment, Ling Feng’s ears twitched as he heard a roar in the distance.

"Is there a battle happening?" Ling Feng’s spirit was stirred, and he leapt from tree to tree towards the direction of the sound.

Boom! Before Ling Feng could stealthily approach, a powerful shock wave hit him head-on, sending him flying backwards.

With a thud, Ling Feng hit the ground hard, his entire body aching. A hint of horror appeared on his face; what kind of Demon Creature was actually battling here? Even Level 3 Demon Creatures couldn’t have such powerful might!

"Could it be a Level 4 or higher Demon Creature?" Ling Feng’s heart stirred, and he cautiously moved forward.

As Ling Feng approached, he felt increasingly powerful pressure, making it hard for him to breathe.

Ling Feng hesitated. Should he join in on this situation? If Level 4 or higher Demon Creatures were indeed battling, they could easily kill him.

But Ling Feng only hesitated for a moment before firming up. He didn’t have much time left; even if there was just a sliver of opportunity, he had to seize it!

Furthermore... Ling Feng still wasn’t very familiar with this Phantom Demon Continent; he needed to gather as much useful information as possible to devise better plans.

With this mindset, Ling Feng continued cautiously forward, but the only advantage was the battle between these two powerful beings. The surrounding Demon Creatures had already scattered far and wide, and some Second-Level and Level 3 Demon Creatures were caught up and killed.

Ling Feng wasted no time in extracting the horns from these dead Demon Creatures; this was a welcome surprise.

Finally, Ling Feng reached the center of the battle and saw the combatants — two Demons. Both wore Half-Demon Armor.

"Haha, you’re not my match!" A man shielded in black armor wielded a giant Bone Blade and laughed, "If you, the top fighter of the Dark Night Demon Clan, die by my hand, your clan will be completely devoured by our Ghost Demon Clan."

On the other side, a man on the brink of death swung his tail to support himself. "Dream on, your Ghost Demon Clan is full of petty thieves. Do you think attacking me here will fulfill your clan’s schemes? Utterly ridiculous!"

The Ghost Demon Clan man smiled contemptuously. "You might as well say what you like now, but the outcome isn’t going to change. I’ll personally extract your Energy Source, so... die!"

As he finished speaking, black light emanated from his body. A black radiance gathered in his palm, forming into a giant hand in mid-air, lunging towards the man from the Dark Night Demon Clan.

The Dark Night Demon Clan man had a trace of seriousness on his face. Although he was heavily injured and the Ghost Demon Clan’s attacks were strong, that didn’t mean he would surrender willingly.

As the strongest talent among the younger generation of the Dark Night Demon Clan, he had his trump card.

"Dark Night Demon Spear!" The Dark Night man growled, a black spear flying out from his body. He grasped the spear, hurling it fiercely towards the Ghost Demon Clan man: "Demon Spear Infusion, Sky-Splitting Strike!"

The Dark Night Demon Spear transformed into a black lightning bolt, carrying the aura of tearing through the sky as it charged at the Ghost Demon Clan man.

The Ghost Demon Clan man’s expression changed drastically. "Dark Night Demon Spear? You actually have your clan’s treasure, the Dark Night Demon Spear? Damn, you’ve hidden really well!"

His black giant hand was instantaneously torn apart by the Demon Spear. Gritting his teeth, his armor revealed a dark golden pattern: "Half-Demon Armor, Demonization!"

The Half-Demon Armor instantly enveloped the man, and at that moment, the Dark Night Demon Spear attacked, colliding fiercely with the armor.

Boom! A massive explosion sounded, and the shockwave obliterated everything around!

Seeing the situation was unfavorable, Ling Feng immediately blasted open a hole in the ground and dove in. Even so, he still sustained considerable injuries from the formidable shockwave attack.

"Ptooey!" Ling Feng spat out blood from his mouth, then grabbed a horn and shoved it into his mouth. The Energy Source of Demon Creatures has the advantage of swiftly healing some of the less severe injuries.

After staying in the pit for several minutes, Ling Feng carefully dug himself out from the pit.

Witnessing the scene before him, Ling Feng couldn’t help but gasp, because the battleground was replaced by a giant pit, with the two men lying weakly at the bottom. Although they weren’t dead, they were barely breathing.

Ling Feng’s heart raced with excitement; was it possible the fisherman’s gain might fall to him because of a fight between a crane and clam?

These two were at least Level 4 Demons; if Ling Feng absorbed their horns, he might immediately break through the barrier of Second-Level Demon Creatures, perhaps even reaching the Realm of Level 4 Demons!

"Seems like fate is on my side!" Ling Feng licked his lips and walked towards the pit.

Although the two were very weak now, they noticed Ling Feng’s approach immediately.

"A mere Second-Level Long-haired Demon? Is his target us?" The Ghost Demon Clan man looked with surprise at Ling Feng’s approach.

Long-haired Demons are first-level demon creatures, lacking spiritual intelligence, living based on instinct. Normally, in their previous battle, even Level 3 Demon Creatures would have avoided it; how come a Second-Level Long-haired Demon appeared here?

Unusual, definitely unusual!

"Couldn’t believe we became a target for a Second-Level Demon Creature; it’s quite a joke!" The Dark Night Demon Clan man said casually, "But this Long-haired Demon is quite delusional. Even if we remain motionless, a Second-Level Demon Creature can’t harm us!"
