Chapter 206 : The Silent Spirit Race
Chapter 206: The Silent Spirit Race
As Lu Xueqi watched everything unfold, a grave expression flashed across her face, because she knew that her previous attack had failed to injure the true body within the blood-colored sphere.
Sure enough, after the golden radiance dissipated, the blood-colored sphere appeared once more. However, the blood-colored energy barrier surrounding it had already vanished. It seemed that the two attacks had just canceled each other out.
Meanwhile, from several different directions within the Song Dynasty, a number of generals were leading tens of thousands of soldiers as they rushed toward Xiangyang City to reinforce it.
However, after witnessing the upheaval in the sky and hearing the terrifying explosions erupting from the direction of Xiangyang City, the generals all came to a halt.
None of them dared advance even a single step toward Xiangyang City.
At the same time, they dispatched numerous scouts to investigate the situation there.
Naturally, Lu Xueqi knew nothing of this. But even if she had, she would probably have been delighted by their decision, because if those people truly came to Xiangyang City, they would simply become additional energy for the blood-colored sphere.
By now, Lu Xueqi had already guessed that the blood-colored sphere most likely grew stronger by absorbing the power of living beings.
Sure enough, after the golden lightning completely dissipated, the blood-colored sphere reappeared.
However, it had now shrunk to only a dozen Zhang in size.
At the same time, the energy surrounding it seemed to have been devoured by whatever was inside, disappearing almost instantly.
Then, a demonic creature over a dozen Zhang tall suddenly appeared.
Its entire body was crimson-red, with a pair of horns growing from its head and a pair of wings extending from its back, making it appear incomparably terrifying.
Its appearance was somewhat similar to Ogedei's previous form, except that Ogedei's true body was insignificant in comparison.
At the same time, a crimson-gray power suddenly surged from the demonic creature's body.
The moment this power appeared, even the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth in the surrounding area seemed to become contaminated, turning murky.
Seeing this, Lu Xueqi frowned slightly.
Sure enough, now that this demonic creature had revealed its true form, its aura had become extremely similar to the aura of the demonic creatures she had encountered beneath the Dead Spirit Abyss and at Flowing Wave Mountain.
At the same time, the aura emanating from the creature caused Lu Xueqi's expression to become increasingly solemn.
She discovered that the creature's aura was unimaginably terrifying.
Had her combat strength not been extraordinarily powerful and had she not comprehended the Power of Laws, she would probably have turned around and fled immediately.
If her true strength had merely been that of an ordinary Fifth Level of the Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, she would have had absolutely no power to resist this demonic creature.
According to Lu Xueqi's perception, this creature's strength had reached at least the Void Refinement Realm.
Such terrifying power was far beyond what an ordinary Nascent Soul Realm cultivator could ever compare with.
However, the magical power cultivated through the Tai Chi Profound Immortal Dao that Lu Xueqi practiced was extraordinarily powerful and could never be judged solely by cultivation realm.
With her magical power alone, she could already fight against a Void Refinement Realm expert.
Combined with her Power of Laws and the terrifying strength of her physical body, she was fully confident in battling a Void Refinement Realm powerhouse.
After revealing its true form, the gigantic demonic creature fixed its icy gaze upon Lu Xueqi and emitted a strange sound.
As the sound spread outward, Lu Xueqi immediately felt her mind grow heavy, as though she were about to be corrupted by the sound and lose all reason.
Seeing this, Lu Xueqi was greatly alarmed and immediately mobilized the immense Spiritual Power within her mind.
As her vast Spiritual Power swept outward, the feeling of dizziness instantly disappeared.
Lu Xueqi was inwardly shocked.
She had never expected this demonic creature to possess such terrifying abilities.
She had nearly fallen victim to it.
At this moment, Lu Xueqi clearly understood that if she had been affected by the creature's voice just now and her strength had been even slightly weaker, she would most likely have been directly controlled by it and assimilated into one of its own kind, losing her consciousness and becoming nothing more than a puppet.
When Lu Xueqi instantly regained her clarity of mind, the terrifying demonic creature appeared slightly surprised.
It let out a soft sound of surprise before muttering,
“I never expected that a tiny ant like you could break free from my Heavenly Curse Demonic Sound.”
Upon hearing those words, Lu Xueqi's expression immediately became solemn as she murmured,
“Heavenly Curse Demonic Sound.”
The demonic creature seemed to hear her words and replied,
“The Heavenly Curse Demonic Sound is the innate talent of our Silent Spirit Race. Anyone weaker than us who is affected by my Heavenly Curse Demonic Sound will instantly become my puppet. I never expected that you actually possessed some ability.”
After hearing the creature's indistinct voice, Lu Xueqi asked,
“The Silent Spirit Race?”
Her tone was filled with confusion.
Upon hearing her question, the demonic creature sneered.
“That's right! I am a demonic servant of the Silent Spirit Race. My master is the Supreme Demon King of our Silent Spirit Race! It was the Supreme Demon King who used his supreme divine power to send me into this world. His purpose is to invade this world.
At the same time, the Supreme Immortal Demons of our Silent Spirit Race have already dispatched numerous experts of our race into this World of Chaos, searching through countless worlds and preparing to completely destroy them, turning them into nourishment for the growth of our Silent Spirit Race.”
After hearing this, Lu Xueqi frowned tightly, and her expression grew even heavier.
If what this so-called servant of the Silent Spirit Race said was true, then wouldn't the Myriad Heavens and Worlds outside be in grave danger?
She could not help but ask,
“Could it be that the experts of your Silent Spirit Race have already managed to break free from the seals established by those supreme Immortals and Gods?”
Upon hearing Lu Xueqi's question, the servant of the Silent Spirit Race let out a cold laugh.
“Those seals established by the Immortals and Gods are indeed powerful. But after so many years of erosion, the Supreme Immortal Spirits of our Silent Spirit Race have already become capable of sending some experts through the cracks in those seals to sweep through the Myriad Heavens.
Give it a little more time. Once the seals continue to crumble, our Silent Spirit Race will surely destroy the entire World of Chaos, turning it into nourishment for our race's growth! Hahahahaha!”
Then, as though it greatly admired Lu Xueqi, the servant of the Silent Spirit Race said,
“Human, my name is Miexin. Remember it well. From now on, I shall be your master.”
After hearing the words of this so-called Miexin, Lu Xueqi coldly replied,
“You think you're qualified to become my master? You're simply daydreaming.”
Miexin showed no concern whatsoever upon hearing Lu Xueqi's response.
After all, he had already determined that Lu Xueqi's talent was exceptionally outstanding.
If he could turn Lu Xueqi into his demonic servant, then he could very likely nurture her into a supreme powerhouse in the future.
At that time, once he devoured Lu Xueqi, his own strength would rise to an unimaginably terrifying level.
