Chapter 719: I’ll Count to Three
Whoosh!
A mighty wind swept across the Far West, carrying a surge of yellow sand that resembled an invading sandstorm. In reality, this was caused by the earlier battle, which had been so intense that it shattered thousands of li of the surrounding land.
After confirming that Chu Liang had indeed returned to Mount Shu, the human cultivators, led by Venerable Wen Yuan, decided to let it go. It was unrealistic to think they could kill the remaining eighth-realm demon kings. While they could unleash their full power to wipe out all the lesser demons in sight, doing so would leave the demon kings free to act without restraint.
If the demon kings retaliated with destructive attacks on human cities, even the powerful human cultivators would find it difficult to manage.
Thus, after fighting to the point where the land of the Far West was left in ruins, the humans chose to retreat.
What remained was an even more desolate, blood-soaked wasteland. The Verdant Foxhills bore the worst of the devastation, with the villages Caiyi had spent centuries building now lying in ruins.
Made of strong materials, the Mountain Range of the Seven Kings was not destroyed. Even though the temple on top faced a fiery attack from Di Nufeng, it withstood the attack. After all, this was the place of worship for the demons and would not be so easily burnt to ashes.
However, Changfeng, who had been in the temple, was nowhere to be found.
Glancing at the surrounding Samadhi True Fire, it wasn’t hard to deduce that he had likely fallen at the hands of Di Nufeng from Mount Shu.
After performing a divination, the Great High Priest confirmed that Changfeng’s soul had been destroyed.
Another one of the few remaining powerful demon kings had fallen!
