Chapter 1591 - Fierce Winds
Chapter 1591 - Fierce Winds
The nine Heretic Gods’ eyes flickered as their lips trembled, communicating among themselves about something. Nine pairs of dark, round eyes glanced back and forth from Li Qingshan as if they were judging his capability. They could tell with a single glance that Qian Rongzhi was just a Demon Sovereign. Let alone killing Jiuying, just this pig head was not something she could deal with.
Li Qingshan stood unfazed.
Suddenly, the nine Heretic Gods said together again with babyish voices, “Hmph, why would mother fear a one-armed handicap like you? C’mon, brothers and sisters, let’s go. Let’s leave it up to mother to teach them a lesson!”
As they said that, they backed away at the same time, except they asked one more question together, “Oh right, you know where she is, right? If you don’t know where she is, hehe!”
Their pink little faces gave off an innocent and naive sense of ruthlessness. It was probably a talent that all demonfolk were endowed with from birth.
“Brothers and sisters, you have nothing to worry about. Of course, we know.” Qian Rongzhi looked back at Li Qingshan and smiled. “Right?”
Li Qingshan nodded silently.
“Alright then!” The nine Heretic Gods left in satisfaction. They left behind one last threat. “If you dare to lie to us, we’ll never spare you. Mother will never spare you either!”
“Alright, they’re gone.” Qian Rongzhi turned back into a tiny snake, entwining around Li Qingshan’s wrist. “I decided on that all by myself, so please don’t get angry with me, sir!”
Li Qingshan remained silent for a very long time. He had no hopes in a peaceful negotiation, so he also prepared for a great battle.
Just from what he had witnessed earlier, the strength of the nine Heretic Gods was even greater than his estimates. If the nine of them coordinated together in the battle too, it would be another difficult, dangerous battle.
He was unable to blame Qian Rongzhi for her scheme of turning the enemy against themselves. It was equivalent to eliminating twenty Heretic Gods worth of enemies for nothing. Now, all he had to do was deal with Jiuying. With the Sword of Xuanyuan in hand, he could enter the state of “one with the heavens” at any moment, so even if the nine Heretic Gods suddenly turned against him, they would not be too much of a threat.
However, all of this still left him deeply unhappy. Basically all of the wicked deeds in the world played out in the Demon domain at all times. He felt like even his emotions would be drastically affected if he remained in the Demon domain for too long, finding it more and more repulsive and unbearable.
I’ll kill my way out of this Blood maze as soon as possible, settle the gamble with that bastard Qiongqi at Qingqi mountain, and then leave the Demon domain!
With that in mind, Li Qingshan began his calculations again. Finding the exit that led to Qiongqi’s dominion among the twelve was relatively difficult. However, there was only a single location for Jiuying. As long as he found it, it was impossible for it to fall through.
After a series of calculations, he discovered that while the overall structure of the Blood maze had changed drastically, Jiuying’s location should not have changed. It was still in the central region of the Blood maze, controlling everything from there like the queen bee.
Everything became even simpler. He did not have to detour around looking for a path. Just directly killing his way over was enough.
Li Qingshan hovered in the air and shut his eyes, slowly turning his body and adjusting his direction precisely.
Suddenly, he stopped and opened his eyes, raising his only arm and throwing a punch!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The force of his fist smashed through the walls of flesh. A great path pierced through countless chambers and crushed all the demonfolk blocking its path, extending straight to the very depths of the Blood maze.
At that instant, the Blood maze was like a colossal beast that had suddenly awakened. The surrounding flesh wriggled violently, pressing towards him. The chamber contracted violently, becoming extremely narrow.
The invisible laws restrained and pressured him. He suddenly felt like he was burdened with a tremendous weight.
Pustules protruded from the walls, bursting open with a series of pops. Bloodshot white eyes devoid of irises appeared, all gathering on him with an indescribable gaze.
Li Qingshan’s hairs stood on end. The invisible gaze seeped through his pores, inciting the most primitive sense of fear. It was the fear that a weak creature felt towards a powerful, unknown creature.
However, he did not resist this fear. He raised his only arm and gazed at his trembling right hand.
“Yes, this is fear…”
Countless fleshy nodules sprouted on the walls, densely-packed and trypophobic in sight. They immediately turned into countless tendrils, where their sharp tips split open into eight parts, becoming mouths lined with jagged teeth. They let out an extremely sharp shriek that resembled the bawling of infants, tearing towards him.
All of this was enough to immediately collapse the minds of Human and Demon Sovereigns. Even Heretic Gods would go mad from this, even suffering from cultivation deviation.
Li Qingshan was deeply affected as well, but he still did not suppress it with the spirit turtle. He allowed this maddening idea to rage through his sea of consciousness.
“Yes, this is madness…”
After arriving in the Demon domain, the gloom, hesitation, and disgust he had accumulated gradually oozed out, forming a hysterical fury—Frenzy of the Tiger Demon!
The wings of wind suddenly unfurled. He let out a roar as his murderousness surged like the wind!
At that instant, the malice of the tiger demon reached an unprecedented level.
Within the fierce wings that had unfurled after merging with the wings of wind, he tore through all of the tendrils and pierced all of the eyes. The chamber he resided in immediately expanded to several times its size. He continued to amass the violent winds, which contained lightning and thunder.
“Jiuying, I’m coming!”
Li Qingshan stood within the wind and lightning. The storm reached its limit, and he flapped his wings gently.
With a boom, the chamber ruptured, and the winds and thunder roared together. He charged out of the depths of the Blood maze.
He sped off straight for the centre, smashing through the obstacles and tearing apart the demonfolk he encountered mercilessly. At this very moment, he felt no pity or hesitation for them. There was only bloodthirstiness and violence.
Wherever he went, blood flowed everywhere, merging with the flesh and bones, forming a river of blood that gathered and raged as he advanced!
Boom! The storm smashed through an extremely tough wall and suddenly entered a huge chamber over a hundred times larger than a regular one.
Whoosh! The river of blood raged down, forming a colossal waterfall that rapidly swallowed the ground.
Li Qingshan gazed out. In the centre of the chamber was a mountainous mushroom of blood and flesh, similar to the fungus that the demonfolk ate. The very top was shaped like a placenta.
A half-human, half-snake woman curled up on there. Her dishevelled long hair covered her face as she embraced her slightly-bulging belly, gently humming an ancient ballad.
The woman seemed to be wrapped in a motherly glow. Her singing was gentle and distant, filled with tenderness. It also seemed to possess a strange kind of power, immediately pacifying the whistling of the storm. Even the malice in Li Qingshan’s heart settled down. For an instant, he even suspected that he had come to the wrong place.
“Jiuying!?”
“Who are you? Why have you intruded on my palace? And killed my children!?”
The singing came to a halt. The woman turned over slowly. Her beautiful face was filled with resentment.
Li Qingshan raised his lone arm and threw a punch.
“Killing needs no reason!”
