Chapter 373: Death of the Demon Saint

At the top of Desolation City, the demon magnate Qi Practitioners' and even the saint clan clan masters' expressions drastically changed as they became lost for words.

"He still has the Demonic God Blood Charm!" Some of them shouted.

The Demonic God Blood Charms were a type of precious item created by Demon Saint in his previous life. Through this item, Demon Saint would be able to recover his strength back to the strength he possessed in his previous life, temporarily allowing him unfettered access to the overwhelming power he possessed in his previous life. The consequences of such an item were already all to clear to those present.

And that was why the eight saint clans were fearful of Demon Saint.

They did not dare to attack Demon Saint first because they feared that he still had some of the charms with him. And if their fears were to be true, then none of them would be able to survive the ordeal of facing him. Thus, they elected to use Zhong Yue as an instrument to understand the current limits of Demon Saint's capabilities.

Right now, after being heavily injured by Zhong Yue and with almost all his energy siphoned away, he had no choice but to draw his final card and reveal the charm early on in the battle.

As the charm appeared, it immediately started burning while Demon Saint's aura intensified as he soon broke free from Zhong Yue's[Celestial Demon Yi]. Then, an immense demonic aura surged into the skies with incredibly might that pressured the surrounding and atmosphere greatly. But suddenly, another charm flew out from Zhong Yue's six wheels!

"Seal!" shouted Zhong Yue as he poured a tremendous amount of power into the charm.

It was the God Sealing Charm left behind by the old ancestor of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race! As the power of the charm was unleashed, the two charms' power collided, forming a huge "封" character in the air and manifesting a gigantic demonic god apparition.

When the two horrendous powers erupted, the apparition became neutralized bit by bit, causing it to become smaller and smaller.

Then, both Zhong Yue and Demon Saint were sent flying away by the impact of each others' attacks, and they both crashed into the desert underneath them.

Zhong Yue struggled to get up, and he heaved a few violent coughs while looking towards the spot Demon Saint crashed. He was also struggling to get up as he was coughing out blood as well while looking towards Zhong Yue.

Not far away from them was a huge crater that was extremely big and deep while the sands were slowly falling into the hole.

Molten lava could be seen in the deepest part of the hole, and it seemed as if a demonic god was slumbering beneath its depths that constantly stirred the lava, causing it to flow.

And the fiery larva in the hole flowed in a direction that coincidentally also formed the word "封."

Meanwhile, the godly and demonic aura in the bottom of the massive crater continued to intensify as the two charms continued colliding with one another, both of them struggling to overwhelm the other.

Suddenly, Zhong Yue coughed out a mouthful of blood, and he immediately frowned as his own power was also being sealed away by the God Sealing Charm.

Out of his expectations, the charm was something that applied to both parties, hence, whoever was in its area of coverage would have their powers sealed, regardless of whether or not they cast it in the first place!

Oh no, the Fu Xi true form duration is about to end!

Zhong Yue's heart quickly thumped as he could not maintain this state for much longer. And after battling with Demon Saint for so long, he was about to be forcibly taken out of this state already!

"Hahahaha!" Demon Saint spat out some blood from his mouth and pointed towards Zhong Yue, hysterically laughing to the point he was no longer able to stand.

Zhong Yue hmphed and quickly rushed towards Demon Saint while Demon Saint got up and said with a smirk, "I know that your charm is used for sealing purposes, so I intentionally baited you into using it so that both of our hands would be tied! Without the sealing charm, you will have one less aid in the battle! So what if your psyche is stronger than mine? With yours and my psyche sealed, your inferior body will be no match against me!"

He quickly walked towards Zhong Yue and turned into a demon with three heads, six arms and eight legs as his body twisted around. With his eight legs, Demon Saint moved as fast as lighting, using his own body as his weapons and raining down a series of attack towards Zhong Yue. "My body has undergone countless refinement. Totem carvings were melted into my blood, bone, skin, and organs. How could your pathetic human body dream to fight against mine? The duration may not last long, but it will be more than enough for me to kill you!"

Now, with their psyche completely sealed away, they were left with just their own bodies as their only weapons from this point forward.

"Perhaps not!"

Zhong Yue inhaled deeply, stimulating the dormant energy in his body. Drastic changes then occurred in his physiology! Six arms grew out from under his original two arms, and he turned into a 30 feet tall giant. Then, the two now gigantic Qi Practitioners charged toward each other, relentlessly throwing punches and kicks at each other and mutually inflicting severe injuries on each others' bodies.

Demon Saint stood on one leg while he flung his other seven legs towards Zhong Yue, landing ten continuous kicks on Zhong Yue that made the latter's flesh tear apart from the force.

Suddenly, Zhong Yue swung his snake tail, and trapped Demon Saint's eight legs and slammed him hard onto the ground!

He then curled his tail and hung Demon Saint upside down before launching a rapid volley of punches at him with his eight arms while Demon Saint retaliated with his six arms. The only things that could be seen from the exchange were the afterimages of their fists moving at a ghostly speed.

"Get lost!"

Demon Saint shouted as he applied strength to his legs, freeing himself from Zhong Yue's tail. Immediately, the two of them moved around the desert quickly. And after Zhong Yue gained the upper hand, Demon Saint then quickly jumped up into the air with Zhong Yue following closely behind him. Unlike Demon Saint, Zhong Yue's snake tail gave him a significant advantage in the air as his body was able to move like a slithering dragon.

This was all because flying was one of the gifts that were intrinsic to the Fu Xi Celestial Race. Even without cultivating, they were all able to fly in the skies and burrow through the ground from birth.

Initially, Demon Saint thought that Zhong Yue could not fly because of his snake-like lower body. But to his dismay, Zhong Yue was even better than him at flying!

Zhong Yue charged straight towards Demon Saint and said, "No other race other than the innate gods possess a stronger body that a human body. So stop saying that you demons have superior physiques to humans!"

The two then continued to fight ferociously with each other, and they fell straight down onto the ground when Zhong Yue wrapped his snake tail around Demon Saint's legs, which immobilized not only Demon Saint, but also himself.

Underneath them was the center of the huge pit hole, where the two charms' powers erupted. Even right until now, the powers of the two charms were still struggling to overcome each other as the battle progressed.

With the intense conflict between the two talismans, no one knew what was going to happen to the two of them once they fell into the bottomless pit hole underneath them.

The two of them were still rapidly exchanging blows as they fell down from the sky. Zhong Yue suddenly stretched out his six arms and grabbed onto Demon Saint's arms while swinging his other two arms toward Demon Saint's neck.

In an instant, Zhong Yue launched a furious barrage of attacks at the Demon Saint, inflicting severe wounds on him and even managing to barehandedly sever his head!

At the same time, The two of them fell into the huge hole, and with his snake tail, Zhong Yue quickly slithered at the slope of the hole as he quickly rushed towards the top.

As soon as he landed, changes occurred in his body again as his Fu Xi bloodline's power became depleted and he turned reverted back to his original human form.

And when he stood at the edge of the pit hole, all he saw was fiery larva at the bottom of the hole while there was no movement at all in the huge"封" character.

The "封" character's bright glow started to darken while the demonic power within the Demonic God's Blood Talisman began to fade away.

Far away at the top of the Fiend Capital, the many demonic Qi Practitioners all looked at the scene with an empty mind.

"Demon Saint is dead...." murmured one of the demon Qi Practitioners.

Using his own body as his weapon, Zhong Yue had finally killed Demon Saint with pure brute strength. This feat was incredibly shocking since the hitherto invincible Demon Saint was finally defeated and sent to his death!

"Mo Luo... He is a human...." shouted a demon Qi Practitioner.

"He is a human!"

"Zhong Yue from the Swords Gate of Great Wilderness!" shouted another demon Qi Practitioner that recognized Zhong Yue.

Chaos rose among the demon Qi Practitioners as many of them recognized Zhong Yue's true identity while Zhong Yue remained silent as he looked at the bottom of the pit hole.

"Kill that despicable human!" shouted the demon Qi Practitioners as they rushed towards Zhong Yue.

Zhong Yue however, remained indifferent as he patiently waited on the side and suddenly, a loud noise erupted from the bottom, and a huge head emerged from the hole! As the head breathed out from its nose, it created twin tornadoes that rampaged across the desert and siphoned up the sand on the ground as they moved.

The head was about 100 feet large in diameter, and when it fully appeared in Zhong Yue's vision, Zhong Yue saw a burning fire in his eyes. The giant head also immediately directed its gaze onto Zhong Yue.

Hu——-

A rogue wind blew as the head ascended when a Demonic God's spirit rose from the pit hole shrouded in the intense demonic aura and a 1000-meter-high Demonic God's spirit appeared in the desert.

As the spirit stood up completely, Zhong Yue, who was standing next to its feet, felt like he was like a tiny ant as he was smaller than any of its toes.

"The true spirit of Demon Saint...." praised Zhong Yue as he noticed that the talismans' power at been depleted and that he could use his psyche again. Suddenly, he raised his hands and summoned the Golden Peng Sword back to himself. He said, "Demon Saint, how much of your strength can you still use after the demons stopped worshipping you?"

The spirit of Demon Saint ignored his questions, and when he looked at the demonic Qi Practitioners, all of them became paralyzed from fear.

Pu tong——-

Some of them knelt down on the ground, and they quickly bowed towards Demon Saint as they prayed towards him.

Slowly, one by one they all knelt down and those in the Fiend Capital too, knelt down as they all prayed towards Demon Saint.

All in a sudden, the scales of the battle suddenly shifted in Demon Saint's favor, and Zhong Yue's heart turned cold as he sensed the resultant surge in Demon Saint's power. It was a power that was distilled from a million years of worship, the true power of a demonic figure that had been worshipped by the demons for eons.

After having his body destroyed, Demon Saint showed his true spirit, and with that, he received the worship of the demons which had awoken the dormant power slumbering in his body. And it was a strength that was far beyond Zhong Yue's.

If the Demon Saint's demonic spirit had not awoken, then Zhong Yue could still kill him with his godly weapon, but now, Zhong Yue was the one in deep water.

The clan masters and elders of the eight saint clans were also incensed as they looked at the demons that knelt down and bowed towards Demon Saint, but they couldn't do anything at all.

Demon Saint's influence was so absolute that even after all the sins he committed towards the demons, there would still be countless worshippers that would follow his lead as soon as his true spirit appeared!

With a loud and rumbling voice, the spirit of Demon Saint stared at Zhong Yue and said, "Now you know how much of my power I can use, Zhong Yue!"

Upon hearing his words, just when Zhong Yue was about to charge towards Demon Saint, the sound of rushing water could be heard from the west part of the desert as huge waves charged towards them.

The rogue waves quickly devoured the surrounding demons, and a young dragon man standing on the waves bowed and said loudly, "The Saint Weapon!"

Mu——-

A loud dragon roar was heard, and a sword rose from the back of the young dragon man like a prancing dragon that charged towards Demon Saint at lighting speed!

The Slithering Dragon Sword encircled Demon Saint's spirit, and suddenly, it returned to its sheath behind the young dragon man's back.

"Demon Saint killed the elders of our dragon race and destroyed our dragon weapons. Thus, I am here to cut him down under the orders of the elders of my dragon race."

The young man then greeted the demons from afar and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please excuse my impoliteness!"

The water waves then flowed back into the sea and along with the waves was the young man.

Meanwhile, the Demon Saint's spirit on top of the huge pit hole suddenly disintegrated and silently faded away into thin air.
