Chapter 6046
“What?!” Black Bat King exclaimed in shock.
His Soul-Destroying Demonic Sound technique had severely injured a peak seventh-grade Upper Immortal, so how could it be completely ineffective against this ninth-grade Celestial Immortal?
Kai gave him no more chances, taking a step forward and appearing before Black Bat King like a ghost, unleashing a punch!
This punch was simple and unadorned, yet it contained the annihilating properties of chaotic power. Wherever the fist’s force passed, even space itself cracked with fine black fissures.
Black Bat King hurriedly raised his wings to defend, dense black runes appearing on his fleshy wings, forming a sturdy defensive barrier.
Boom!
Fist and wings collided!
The black rune barrier shattered like paper, Kai’s fist directly piercing through Black Bat King’s fleshy wings, striking his chest!
“Pfft!”
Black Bat King spat out a mouthful of black blood, his chest caved in, his ribs broken.
He discovered in horror that the gray energy that had invaded his body was frantically devouring his life force and demonic power, and no matter how he circulated his cultivation techniques, he couldn’t expel it!
“No…impossible…I am a seventh-grade Immortal, how could you…”
the Black Bat King roared, his eyes filled with resentment and fear.
Kai did not answer, his left hand forming a sword, thrusting straight at the Black Bat King’s brow.
The Black Bat King tried to dodge, but his heavily injured body moved slowly, and he could only watch helplessly as the gray sword light pierced into his sea of consciousness.
The next moment, his consciousness fell into eternal darkness.
Kai put away the Black Bat King’s storage ring and natal magic weapon, a pair of black bat wings. If these wings were refined, they could be used to forge a decent flying magic weapon.
He did not linger and quickly left the underground cave.
Less than half an incense stick’s time after Kai left, the bat demons of the western camp discovered the Black Bat King’s corpse.
Panic spread like a plague.
“The King is dead!”
“Enemy attack! Enemy attack!”
The entire western camp fell into chaos.
At this moment, Kai had already arrived at the southern camp, his target being the Golden Toad King, one of the five great demon kings.
The Golden Toad King was slightly weaker, only at the peak of the sixth rank of the Upper Immortal Realm, but he was skilled in using poison and defense. His true form was a thousand-year-old poisonous toad with thick skin and flesh, and his venom could corrode high-grade spiritual artifacts .
Kai did not choose assassination, but instead directly stormed into the Golden Toad King’s central command tent.
“Who goes there?!”
The Golden Toad King was discussing military affairs with several subordinates when he saw Kai suddenly appear, and he was both shocked and furious.
“The one who will take your life.”
Kai said calmly, and the power of chaos in his hand condensed into a gray longsword.
The Golden Toad King felt the chilling aura emanating from Kai, and his heart sank, knowing that the visitor was hostile.
He immediately roared, and his body swelled up, revealing his true form: a giant golden toad the size of a house!
The giant toad’s back was covered with poisonous tumors, and it spewed green poisonous mist from its mouth, instantly filling the entire tent.
The demon generals who touched the poisonous mist screamed and turned into pus and blood, even their souls were corroded.
Kai remained unfazed. Chaotic power circulated around his body, instantly dissolving and devouring the poisonous mist upon contact with the gray light shield, unable to penetrate even a fraction.
The Golden Toad King, seeing this, was horrified, knowing he had met his nemesis.
He leaped up, his massive body pressing down on Kai, his tongue shooting out like lightning, the tip condensing into a point of golden venom essence.
This was his natal poison, cultivated for a thousand years, capable of killing even a seventh-grade Immortal!
Kai’s eyes narrowed. Instead of retreating, he advanced, his gray longsword unleashing an arc of sword light.
*Thud!
* The sword’s edge severed the Golden Toad King’s tongue, its momentum undiminished, splitting his head open!
The Golden Toad King’s massive body crashed to the ground, his poisonous blood staining the earth and corroding deep pits.
Three kings had fallen!
The news spread like thunder throughout the entire Western Regions!
At the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Hall, the Demon Suppression Venerable could no longer remain seated.
“To kill three demon kings in one day—the Crimson Scorpion, the Black Bat, and the Golden Toad?”
The Demon Suppression Venerable’s face was ashen. “This Kai, as the wanted poster said, possesses strange powers.”
The two remaining demon kings beneath him, the Silver Serpent King and the Iron Eagle King, trembled with fear, their faces pale.
“Venerable, this person is too terrifying. Perhaps… perhaps we should avoid his advance for now?”
the Silver Serpent King said cautiously.
“A temporary retreat?”
The Demon Suppressor sneered. “I’ve been stationed in the Western Regions for hundreds of years; have I ever retreated a single step? Issue the order to mobilize all the troops and lay a trap! I want to personally confront this Kai!”
“Also, send a message to the Grand Venerable of the Central Region, informing him that Kai has appeared in the Western Regions and requesting reinforcements!”
“Yes!”
The Silver Serpent King and the Iron Eagle King immediately responded.
The Demon Suppressor’s eyes flashed with cold light: “Kai… no matter who you are, once you arrive in the Western Regions, it will be your burial ground!”
…
In the Heavenly Demon Valley, the Iron-Backed Bear King had successfully raided the western camp according to Kai’s plan, seizing a large amount of grain and pills, greatly boosting morale.
“Brother Chen, you are truly the savior of our demon race!”
The Iron-Backed Bear King excitedly patted Kai’s shoulder.
Kai’s expression turned grave: “Bear King, the Demon Suppressor Venerable is truly enraged and is mobilizing all his troops to encircle and annihilate us. The real battle is only just beginning.”
Elder Lu nodded: “Mr. Chen is right. Although we have slain three kings, the foundation of the Divine Race remains intact.”
“The Demon Suppressor Venerable still has tens of thousands of elite troops under his command, plus reinforcements from other great domains, the situation remains dire.”
Just then, Ming Li hurriedly entered the tent, his face grave: “Mr. Chen, I discovered an ancient teleportation array deep in the valley. Although it is dilapidated, it seems to still function. The runes on the array… seem very much like the work of the Ghost Race.”
A glint flashed in Kai’s eyes: “Take me to see it.”
Led by Ming Li, Kai arrived at a hidden cave deep within the Heavenly Demon Valley.
Deep within the cave, there was indeed a circular stone platform with a diameter of three zhang, covered with complex runes.
Although many runes had become blurred due to the passage of time, the overall structure was still relatively intact.
Kai observed carefully and found that these runes were similar to those on the fragment of the Ghost King’s Token that Ming Li had obtained earlier.
“This is indeed a Ghost Clan teleportation array,”
Kai judged. “And it’s not low-level; it should be an ancient teleportation array used by the Ghost Clan to traverse long distances.”
Ming Li exclaimed excitedly, “If we can repair this array, we might be able to leave this place and travel to other areas where the Ghost Clan might exist.”
Kai pondered for a moment: “Repairing it will take time, and it will require a large amount of spatial attribute materials. Right now, what we lack most is time.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed, and he abruptly looked up at the cave entrance.
“They’re here.”
