The two demon kings fought with the people from Weimei Sect on the back and forehead of the Sky-Swallowing Beast respectively. The one who suffered the most was of course Xiao San of the Sky-Swallowing Beast. At this moment, the Sky-Swallowing Beast felt waves of attacks on the back of its head. Some of the pain was like being pierced by needles in the body. It was not fatal but very painful.
“Woo——”
The Sky Devouring Beast cried out in pain, not caring about what to eat for the time being. It kept flying up and down, leaving the desolate valley area and rampaging in the mountains.
Boom… Boom…
Some mountains were knocked down, while others were swept down by the Sky-Devouring Beast's tail, but this had no effect on the people on the head and back.
"Mmmmm..."
The Sky-Devouring Beast suddenly accelerated toward the sky, then its body flipped violently, facing the ground with its back, and rushed diagonally toward the ground.
Boom boom boom…
The Sky-Swallowing Beast landed on its back, and as the ground shook violently around it, its back rubbed against the ground as it swam and moved forward continuously. Mountains were constantly being swept away and rock peaks were being smashed around it.
This horrific scene was too terrifying for ordinary demons and monsters, so most of them ran as far as they could. The demon clan respected the strong, but everyone still cherished their lives. If the demon king did not let them go, they would naturally run far away. They could use the excuse that they could not help at all in this kind of confrontation.
The pavilions and towers on the back of the Sky-Devouring Beast had already been destroyed. At this moment, the Sky-Devouring Beast's back was close to the ground, and Ji Yuan and the other two who were hiding under the Taixu method were not affected. The huge leopard grabbed the Sky-Devouring Beast's back with three claws, pressed its back close to the Sky-Devouring Beast, and the other hand was still fighting with the Weimei Sect disciples.
The two people in front of the Sky-Devouring Beast were not affected at all. The frequency of fighting did not decrease at all. All the gravel and mud that rushed over would be shattered in advance under the sword energy and fairy light.
The swordsmanship of the Miaoyun Demon King who wielded the sword was extremely exquisite, and even Ji Yuan had to admire his swordsmanship in his heart, but Jiang Xueling seemed to be able to deal with it with ease. A whisk in his hand was like a sword or a knife, which could block the Demon King's swordsmanship and also sweep away the enemy.
The sword light and the white light created by the whisk rippled above the Sky-Devouring Beast's head, creating layers of beautiful brilliance, but this brilliance was filled with murderous aura and was extremely sharp.
The scalp of the Sky-Swallowing Beast, which has thick skin and rough flesh, has countless surface debris flying off, and the epidermis is frequently cut, but these wounds, which are considered tiny to the Sky-Swallowing Beast, have mist suspended on the surface. Often the wounds are like a flash in the pan, and disappear again when the mist dissipates, as if everything just now was an illusion.
It was impossible for the Sky-Devouring Beast to keep rubbing against the ground, and crashing into the mountain made it a little dizzy. Eventually, it flew up again, which made the confrontation on its back even more intense.
The expression on Demon King Miaoyun's face was much more serious than Jiang Xueling's at this moment. He had been looking solemn since the beginning of the fight. He originally wanted to maintain some so-called demeanor, wanting to let the so-called immortal see his swordsmanship, but his expression became more and more ferocious at this moment, especially when he saw that Jiang Xueling was actually casting spells while fighting with him, and pointed a finger of silver light at the back of the Sky-Swallowing Beast.
brush…
A silver light flashed and disappeared. It turned out to be a silver dart that was almost invisible in the sky. It flew straight towards the Leopard Demon King who revealed his true form.
The leopard demon originally used its tail to deflect the joint attack of three Weimei Sect disciples and was sweeping a claw towards Zhou Xian. Its sharp claws brought up a blurry light with the howling of wronged souls, which made Zhou Xian's heart skip a beat and he secretly thought that something was wrong.
At this moment, a silver light flashed and "puffed" directly in the center of the giant leopard's claws, bringing up a burst of blood. The leopard demon king known as Huang Gu paused, retracted his claws to his mouth to lick the wound, stared at the silver darts that kept changing and flying in the air, and glanced at the top of the Sky-Devouring Beast's head.
"Miaoyun, you can't even hold back a woman?"
The Huanggu Demon King only said these words lightly, but the eyes of the young man in brocade robe who was fighting with Jiang Xueling instantly turned red.
"Hurry... You've been here for so long but you can't even get rid of a few young immortal cultivators, and you still have the nerve to criticize me?"
Miaoyun roared and wielded the sword quickly. Layers of scales with a faint blue glow and frost began to form on his arms. The speed of his sword became faster and faster, and a layer of faint blue light spread around the two of them.
Jiang Xueling narrowed her eyes and looked at the demon king in front of her. With one hand, she pulled out a red silk ribbon tied to her hair, wrapped one end around the index finger of her left hand, and the other end turned into a long ribbon. At the moment when the whisk blocked the sword, the long ribbon shook and hit the young man in brocade robe.
"Pah~"
The sound when the hairband hit the young man in brocade robe was very loud, just like being hit by a metal whip. The clothes on the young man's chest were all torn into pieces, and a long, red and swollen wound appeared on his chest. He bent his body and flew out like a cannonball.
"Hmm? Miaoyun?"
The giant leopard was still struggling with the disciples of Weimei Sect who were setting up the formation. Suddenly, it saw the young man in brocade robe who was fighting with the female fairy was knocked away by the opponent in an instant. It was immediately shocked and realized that it must have underestimated the opponent's strength before. Seeing Jiang Xueling looking at it after knocking Miaoyun away, the giant leopard simply bent its legs slightly and jumped out of the back of the Sky-Swallowing Beast.
The cultivators of Weimei Sect also all recovered and came to Jiang Xueling.
"Master, what should we do?"
Jiang Xueling looked down at the Sky-Devouring Beast.
"Xiao San seems to be more sober than before, but he is indeed in trouble."
In the distant sky, the two demon kings gathered together again. The angry demonic energy that was rising into the sky dyed large areas of the sky black. In the distance, there was also demonic energy and even devilish energy echoing each other.
The Sky-Devouring Beast once again became mad due to hunger and flew away into the distance. On the observatory, the small paper crane flew to Ji Yuan and landed on the table. When Ji Yuan and others lowered their heads to look at it, the small paper crane formed a crane's beak and touched Ji Yuan's cup. A line of water flew out and turned into mist. In the mist, the outlines of some monsters could be vaguely seen.
"Oh? The monsters that were swallowed still exist?"
Ju Yuanzi couldn't help but ask this, and Lian Baiping had already started to calculate. The content of the little paper crane's manifestation was very easy to understand. They could understand it, and of course Ji Yuan could understand it as well.
"Sure enough, those monsters are all in the fog of the world in the belly of the Sky Devouring Beast. They are neither here nor there. It's more like..."
"In the Sky-Devouring Beast's dream?"
When Ji Yuan said this, Lian Baiping was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Yes, there is indeed some such feeling, but not entirely. Moreover, the Sky-Devouring Beast is awake at the moment. If anything, it can be said that it is using its own talent to open up the realm of reality and illusion."
Ji Yuan nodded. It was not a bad thing that these monsters did not die immediately. It might even be a condition for negotiating with the monsters of the Southern Wilderness.
"Boom..."
At some point, wherever the Sky-Devouring Beast passed, the sky was filled with lightning, thunder, and dark clouds. However, Ji Yuan and others knew that the thunder was real, but the dark clouds were the result of a large amount of demonic energy, evil spirit, and evil energy.
Demons appeared frequently. Although there was no demon king taking action personally, many powerful demons attacked the Sky-Devouring Beast. They found the Sky-Devouring Beast's relatively slow weakness and attacked without confronting it head-on. They mainly fought with the female cultivators of the Weimei Sect, and their main target was still the Sky-Devouring Beast.
No matter how thick-skinned and tough the monster was, it could not withstand such repeated attacks. The Sky-Swallowing Beast suffered more and more irreparable wounds, and had nothing to eat in the following days. Its hunger had gradually begun to be replaced by fear.
Jiang Xueling and the disciples of Weimei Sect have been sitting cross-legged in front of the Heaven-Devouring Beast. They will only attack if a demon steps on the body of the Heaven-Devouring Beast, and they do not have much spare energy in other situations.
Disciples such as Zhou Xian were extremely anxious, while Jiang Xueling vaguely sensed some special aura from the Sky-Devouring Beast, which was a sense of a heavenly calamity.
"Master Jiang, if this goes on, Xiao San will die!"
"Grandmaster, I'll go ask Mr. Ji and the others to help. We can't get Xiao San out!"
"Yes, they are both immortals, they will not stand by and watch someone die."
Jiang Xueling shook her head, picked up a somewhat torn hairband in her hand, and gently tied it to a strand of hair in front of her chest.
"It's not that they won't take action, but they can't. I sent a message to the three Taoist friends two days ago, telling them not to take action, even if Xiao San is about to die."
"what why?"
"Grandmaster?"
“Woo woo—”
Not only were the disciples of the Weimei Sect shocked, but even the Sky-Swallowing Beast under their mounts also let out a cry of disbelief. It was obvious that it had regained its consciousness enough to hear these words clearly.
Jiang Xueling smiled, touched the ground with her hand, and gently stroked the skin of the Sky-Devouring Beast.
“Xiao San, my Weimei Sect has been raising Heaven Devouring Beasts for nearly two thousand years, and no Heaven Devouring Beast has ever survived the transformation. Even though we have sealed the bodies of Heaven Devouring Beasts of all generations in the mountains as a ‘helper’ for their transformation… Now I suddenly understand that the so-called calamity is hard to escape, and in the past it was just escaping the calamity. If a demon beast like the Heaven Devouring Beast wants to survive the calamity, it must put itself in a desperate situation and then survive.”
Having said that, Jiang Xueling paused, glanced sideways and spoke softly.
"Three Taoist friends, yes and no?"
"That's right!" "What Brother Jiang said is what we speculated."
Ji Yuan and others had arrived beside the Weimei Sect monks without knowing when. Ju Yuanzi waved his sleeves, and a soft light rippled out from his sleeves, sweeping across the Weimei Sect disciples like water waves.
The next moment, except for Jiang Xueling, all the disciples of Weimei Sect disappeared.
Ji Yuan looked at the evil clouds that were gathering again in the distance with his magical eyes.
"Now that Xiao San has passed the tribulation, it is of course an important matter. However, I am a little confused. Aren't the Southern Wilderness demons a group of scattered sands? Why do they attack and retreat in a measured and orderly manner?"
Jiang Xueling nodded.
"Yes, it is indeed not like the impression I had of the Southern Wilderness Mountains. Some of the monsters there are too tacitly aligned with each other. I tried to kill them several times, but they didn't succeed every time. They worked together to resolve the situation several times..."
Ji Yuan's face didn't look good. This was not just a monster under the command of a demon king.
