BXBX NOVEL Chapter 463 Corpse Demon Tribe
In the end, she knew it was over for her and she had to show her full hand just to get out of here alive now, and she still didn’t know about the situation outside.
There was a massive possibility that they had set up some kind of trap for her outside or they were just too confident in subduing her.
But she knew the demon race wasn’t just an overconfident bunch. They were extremely ruthless to their enemies and they won’t leave any possibilities for an escape.
She looked at the mountain and then the blue barrier in the sky with a regretful and reminiscing expression. ‘Although, this is not how it is supposed to end, but I already got so much from this place. I shouldn’t have risked cultivating this secret technique and left while still having the chance…’
However, an infuriating expression abruptly appeared on her beautiful face, ‘But then I won’t have a chance to strike the demon race like this…’
The very next moment, she started to form strange hand signs and the altar under her suddenly shimmered in a ghostly light.
The mountain sudden quiver started the foxes and before long, the entire space inside the barrier quivered, startling the demons.
“That animal is up to something!” Lora’s expression changed slightly as she looked at the gray lake, which was melting, forming a scary momentum filled with that strange Qi in the lake.
Everyone closed to the lake noticed it.
The empty eyes black skin demon, however, raised his head toward the blue barrier, and the three masked wearing demons couldn’t help but also look toward the barrier.
Killer’s eyes narrowed when he noticed the blue barrier was starting to fade away!
“Is it opening the barrier and trying to escape?!” He exclaimed, which draw high elders’ attention.
At this time the empty eyes’ demon spoke nonchalantly, “The Qi from that barrier is gathering into that lake’s bottom, and then… hmm, it suddenly vanished and so does the Qi already in the lake. As if… something is absorbing it.”
White Fire couldn’t help but asked, “Council Minster, what is at the bottom?”
Council Minster replied impassively, “I can’t tell.”
“Even you?!” A melodious voice rang. It was from one of the mask demons. But no one could tell it was a female because of special concealment.
Everyone knows just how terrifying this Council Minster was and it made them uneasy when they heard even he can’t tell what was at the bottom.
Council Minster didn’t even frown as if he was exempt from any emotions, “I’m afraid that the case. But I can assure you it’s not a threat to me.”
Every felt relief hearing this and at this moment, the light suddenly faded away as darkness broke into the space which remain lit all the time.
They all looked up and saw the barrier was completely gone, revealing the starry sky and the snowing winds of the White Hills Plains.
Winter looked at the starry sky with a look of expectancy. It was just too long since she saw the real sky and breathe the air of this world.
But that expression only for so long, as her eyes turned decisive when she sensed eight demons approaching the colony while others stay on the lakeside, including that empty eyes black demon.
“I have to escape the chase of those soul manifestation demons, and that army won’t be enough to occupy them for long. The only way is to release it…”
Her eyes turned ruthless as she looked at the altar beneath her and she suddenly move her both hands together and again started to form strange hand signs.
Suddenly, she mumbled a strange string of words, and small black rune symbols started to surface on the altar and her body, and slowly those rune symbols started to crawl off from her skin like ants and submerged into the altar.
After the last symbol left her body, she sighed, filled with bitterness and resentment, “In the end, I was still one step away from having a perfect body and the strongest talent in ice element…. It was all because of these hateful demons!”
With a stony expression, she slowly stood up from the altar.
It now shimmered in gray light as it trembled as if something wanted to break out.
The next moment, a fox symbol appeared between her eyebrows as she mumbled, “My children, the demons have invaded our lands and wanted to kill us. We can’t just stay idle and let them slaughter us. I need a few moments to prepare the killing formation. Buy me the time!”
Suddenly, furious fox cries rang on the entire mountain, as the holes in the ground outside also started to get restless.
“So, there was an army hidden here, well, more beasts with royal bloodline for us then.” The Exalted Demon King, who was riding on top of Jade Space Serpent, smiled with ecstasy as he looked toward the mountain.
Blade Demon King sneered, “I don’t want those animals. I just wanted to find my son!”
“Just don’t go lunatic blade on us, all right?” Blood Demon King smirked.
Blade Demon King merely scoffed before the two-meter blade in his hand suddenly gave off a fearful aura and, without any hesitation, he swings it toward the huge ice wall direction!
A beautiful ten-meter, white arc formed mixed with silver and white and directly landed on the ice wall, causing a tremendous impact.
The ice wall was like paper and cut apart into pieces.
“I think we had some company.” Earth Demon King looked meaningfully at those holes.
“Just some bugs.” Ghost Demon King sneered before he waved his sleeve and hundreds of needles appeared above his head. They were coated in translucent gray Qi, giving off an extremely frosty vibe.
“Ghost Needle Storm!”
The very next moment, all those needles shot toward the holes, leaving behind after images.
While Eight Demon Kings were busy dealing with the ghost worms, at the lakeside,
The gray lake was now turning into plain water because the Qi was strangely getting sucked right at the bottom.
The Council Minister suddenly spoke with a hint of astonishment, “There are thousands of corpses at the bottom. As for how much, even I can’t count them. But all the Qi has absorbed by them!”
Dark Hole’s expression changed slightly. “Corpses? What does it mean?”
At this moment, the female voice rang again with a hint of worry and shock. “I once read an ancient legend. There was once an extremely sinister demon tribe known for their talent in reviving the dead.
“But the truth was they can’t actually revive the dead, but they made them into something called corpse puppets to do their bidding. Not only, the corpse puppet will have 60% cultivation of the dead person, but they also possessed the ability to become stronger as they consume and kill the living.
“But I only thought it was a legend?”
Council Minster nodded in approval and spoke, “You are truly knowledgeable, My Lady, truly worthy of being the Wise Demon Lady title.”
The second masked demon clenched his fist when he heard the praise, but no one noticed it except Killer since Council Minster was still speaking.
“There was indeed such a tribe in ancient times when war was raging all over the world. This wasn’t just a legend. This tribe was known as the Corpse Demon Tribe, a connate Demon Ancestor Tribe!
“However, In the end, they vanished mysteriously after the era of war ended, or if they were still around, I don’t think Devil Race would be the number one race right now!”
The five high elders were also astonished since they had never known such a history of the demon race and such a scary tribe even exist at that time!
But it wasn’t the time to reminisce about the glory of this forgotten tribe.
White Fire’s expressions were filled with worry. “We also got the report that this was a ruin. T-then could it this be that…”
“Indeed, who would’ve thought there was the inheritance of Corpse Demon Tribe in eight demon provinces? I’m afraid we can’t let that beast who had the inheritance escape, no matter what.
“Just the method to create the corpse puppets is priceless in this world, and if it fell into another race’s hand, there will be dire consequences.”
Council Minster’s voice was icy at this moment. “I’m leaving these corpses to you all. I think that beast is buying time for its escape. The Demon King won’t be enough!”
The high elders solemnly nodded. They understood the gravity of the situation they were in.
The antelope horn on Council Minster suddenly shimmered before he turned into a streak of dark light and bolted toward the peak of fox mountain!
He was literally flying!
