Chapter 204: Chapter 176 Ye Chen Battles Willow Demon



The corpses of the Great Demons, as tall as small mountains, turned the entire valley into a river of blood, a sea of red!

Above the sky and upon the land, the Great Demons rushing toward the valley stopped in their tracks when they saw the carnage, then looked at the three huge willow trees and all of them turned pale.

The Great Demons already possessed intelligence; although the "Fire Elemental Spring" was immensely attractive to them, the presence of the three mighty willow trees instilled them with fear.

Hundreds of Great Demons were slain by the three willows; naturally, none of them wanted to be the next victim.

Faced with the overwhelming power of the three huge willow trees, all the Great Demons were struck with terror!

When they saw the countless hundreds of meters long willow branches dancing wildly in the void, glowing fiery red as if exhibiting their immense killing power, the remaining Great Demons outside the valley eventually turned and fled in a frenzy, no longer daring to linger outside the valley or covet the "Fire Elemental Spring" shrouded by the willows.

The three mighty willow trees not only killed hundreds of Great Demons but also completely scared away the rest!

Utterly dominant!

After scaring away all the Great Demons, the trunks of the three willow trees slowly began to radiate surging pale red halos. These halos spread from the trees and soon enveloped all the slain Great Demon corpses beneath them.

Then, something eerie happened. As the pale red halos spread, the mountain-like piles of Great Demon corpses gradually melted away and diminished, until at last, all of the Great Demon corpses had vanished.

Even the blood of the Great Demons on the ground seeped into the earth, and the whole valley returned to its original state, as if no slaughter had ever taken place.

But after all the Great Demon corpses disappeared, the three huge willow trees appeared nourished, and both the leaves and trunks emitted strange glows.

It looked as though the three willows had absorbed the essence of the dead Great Demons and become even stronger!

Ye Chen, upon witnessing this scene, widened his eyes.

"All these Great Demon corpses have been devoured by these three willow trees?"

"Capable of slaughtering Great Demons and even absorbing their corpses, these are not ordinary trees, these are Demon Trees!"

Ye Chen had heard that some vegetation could devour the True Qi of heaven and earth, evolving into Great Demons or even Demon Kings. It seemed that these three giant willow trees, growing beside the "Fire Elemental Spring," had indeed turned into demons.

These were three Willow Demons!

And they were exceedingly powerful, surpassing countless Half-Step Rotating Pills!

"It looks like I'll have to get past these three Willow Demons like the other Great Demons if I want to reach the 'Fire Elemental Spring.'"

"With the strength of these three top-notch Willow Demons, I wonder if I can get past their attacks."

Ye Chen's expression also became serious.

He had seen how these three Willow Demons killed hundreds of Great Demons and had gained a deep understanding of their strength.

Even though Ye Chen was now able to sweep through a large group of Half-Step Rotating Pills, he still felt unsure whether he could overcome these three Willow Demons.

"Let's try it!"

"To battle these three Willow Demons!"

"Even if I cannot defeat them, I'm confident I won't be killed by them!"

"The Fire Elemental Spring has nourished such powerful Willow Demons, I must obtain it!"

Ye Chen, standing in the void, radiated an intense desire to fight.

Boom!

Instantly, the surging Gang Yuan True Qi within him was released.

As the Gang Yuan True Qi was unleashed, Ye Chen's aura soared to an astonishing level that caused the air in the void to explode, and then, like lightning, he charged fiercely at the three Willow Demons.

Like the other Great Demons, as soon as Ye Chen approached within tens of meters from the Fire Elemental Spring, the three Willow Demons discovered him and swiftly launched an attack.

Psh! Psh! Psh! Psh! Psh!

In the blink of an eye, dozens of willow branches shot toward Ye Chen to pierce him.

"You unleashed hundreds of willow branches to deal with those high-level Great Demons, but for me, you only use dozens?"

Ye Chen smiled faintly as the sound "swish, swish, swish" rang out sharply, and in an instant, hundreds of swords made of True Qi hovered around his body.

These Sword of True Qi flickered, vanishing and reappearing, unmistakably exhibiting Ye Chen's mastery of the Flash Kill Sword Formation from his four great sword formations.

Swooosh!

As soon as the Flash Kill Sword Formation appeared, the flashing sword intent was released, and in an instant, the Swords of True Qi vanished. The next moment, hundreds of Swords of True Qi suddenly materialized in front of the attacking willow branches, and an overwhelming murderous intent abruptly blossomed.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the blink of an eye, the Swords of True Qi clashed with the lethal force of the willow branches from the three Willow Demons.

This time, in the clash, the dozens of willow branches that could easily penetrate and kill a mid-level Great Demon, were actually shattered by Ye Chen's sword formation in one strike, and several of the willow branches were even sliced apart.

Clearly, the Willow Demon had underestimated Ye Chen's combat power, and in this first exchange of blows, it was at a disadvantage.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Having several of its willow branches cut by Ye Chen's Swords of True Qi, the three willow trees seemed to fly into a rage, all their willow branches over a hundred meters in length, numbering more than ten thousand, began to dance wildly, and the fiery red glow on the willow branches was dazzlingly flickering and surging.

After a mere instant, more than a thousand willow branches were assaulting Ye Chen together.

Even when facing a high-level Great Demon, these three Willow Demons would only deploy a few hundred willow branches in their attack, but now, in the face of Ye Chen, the assault of the three Willow Demons had escalated to the level of several thousand branches. Evidently, the Willow Demon had been enraged and sought to kill Ye Chen in one move!

Thousands of willow branches, each hundreds of meters long, filled the sky with their attack, and the entire sky seemed to be enveloped by fiery red lights.

Every single willow branch emitted a dazzling fiery red glow, as if each were a flaming red sword piercing towards Ye Chen.

Willow branches filled the sky, their sharp barbs everywhere!

The astonishing murderous intent completely enveloped Ye Chen, a force that even surpassed all the opponents Ye Chen had faced before.

"Damn it!"

Ye Chen, caught under the onslaught of the willow branches, felt this overwhelming murderous force and his face changed as he suddenly unleashed "Void Instantaneous Change."

The next moment, Ye Chen had instantly moved a hundred meters away.

But what was eerie was that these willow branches seemed to sense Ye Chen's teleportation; almost without the slightest delay, as soon as Ye Chen had just teleported a hundred meters away, thousands more willow branches shot out towards him.

This Willow Demon could actually sense Ye Chen's Void Instantaneous Change!

Boom!

As the willow branches of these Willow Demons once again bore down on Ye Chen, he used Void Instantaneous Change again. This time, Ye Chen did not teleport short distances but instead moved dozens of miles away in an instant, teleporting into the sky outside the valley, escaping the attack range of the three Willow Demons.

Even as Ye Chen teleported with extreme speed, still hundreds of willow branches managed to reach and attack him.

Ye Chen, who teleported into the sky outside the valley, was pierced in dozens of places on his body, with blood pouring out of each wound.

If it weren't for his incredibly strong True Qi and the robust body cultivated through his Nine Transformation Fighting Body, which prevented the willow branches from piercing too deeply, mere inches, this lapse could have allowed the Willow Demon to kill him outright!

"So powerful, too powerful!"

"Could it be that these three Willow Demons have reached the Rotating Pill level? How could they see through my Void Instantaneous Change!"

Ye Chen, who had teleported outside the valley and now stood in the sky, with golden light surging from his Nine Transformation Fighting Body, watched as the numerous wounds on his body slowly healed. However, when he looked at the Willow Demons again, his expression had grown grave.

Clearly, the strength of these Willow Demons exceeded Ye Chen's predictions!

"No, it must not be at the Rotating Pill level, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have escaped their instant kill."

"It must be just a hair's breadth from reaching Rotating Pill. Their perception seems limited to a few hundred meters around their bodies."

Before entering the ancient tomb, Fairy Jia Luo had communicated with Ye Chen.

When Ye Chen previously fought against Xue Jia at the Half-Step Rotating Pill level, exhibiting his Void Instantaneous Change, Fairy Jia Luo was watching.

Fairy Jia Luo had mentioned that although Ye Chen's Void Instantaneous Change was effective against the Spirit Sea Realm, once one's cultivation reached the Rotating Pill Realm and touched upon the Five Great Void Heavenly Principles, enshrouded by the Void Principles, Ye Chen's instantaneous movement could be easily detected.

At that time, Ye Chen knew that Void Instantaneous Change wasn't invincible and that he needed to become stronger.

Unexpectedly, without even encountering a Rotating Pill Realm powerhouse, Ye Chen's Void Instantaneous Change was already at a disadvantage against these Willow Demons!

"These three Willow Demons have completely covered the 'Fire Elemental Spring.' Unless I can truly defeat them, there's no way to obtain the Fire Elemental Spring, let alone the truly precious Fire Elemental Spirit Stones beneath it!"

"My inner True Qi isn't afraid of these three Willow Demons, but my external martial skills, whether it's the sword formation or the Nine Transformation Fighting Body, are still somewhat weaker compared to the attacks of these three Willow Demons."

"Even Void Instantaneous Change can't penetrate the range covered by these Willow Demons. How can I deal with them?"

Ye Chen looked towards the three huge willow trees in the valley, and towards the spring beside the trees that was gushing with the Fire Elemental Spring, contemplating his strategy.

As if sensing Ye Chen's gaze, the three Willow Demons that had injured Ye Chen earlier began to wildly dance their tens of thousands of branches. Each branch shone with brilliant fiery red, and the tens of thousands of fiery red branches flamboyantly danced as if they were taunting Ye Chen!
