Chapter 2025: The Dark Moon Pearl Destroys Demons

Weeds on the ground grew wildly, entangling the Golden Ape Puppet Beast's feet. A towering ancient tree was uprooted and flew into the Tree Demon's hand. The Tree Demon swung the ancient tree, smashing it towards the Golden Ape Puppet Beast.

With a muffled thud, the Golden Ape Puppet Beast was largely embedded in the ground.

A deafening roar of thunder came from high in the sky. A hundred-mile-wide golden thundercloud appeared suddenly, with lightning flashing and thunder rumbling, its presence awe-inspiring.

Golden lightning bolts tore through the sky, falling like meteors, targeting the Tree Demon.

Fear appeared on the Tree Demon's face. Just as it was about to cast a spell to resist, a powerful shout rang out.

The Tree Demon's face contorted, and its body trembled slightly.

Golden lightning bolts struck the Tree Demon one after another. Golden thunder-fire immediately engulfed its body, followed by a series of shrill female screams.

Numerous towering ancient trees withered. A blinding green light emerged from the Tree Demon's body.

Hundreds of extremely sharp axe blades shot forth. Many towering ancient trees fell, broken at their trunks, raising clouds of dust.

A joyous flute sound rang out. Towering trees were uprooted and torn to shreds by powerful sound waves.

In less than ten breaths, only the Tree Demon remained on the ground within a thousand-mile radius.

Meanwhile, the ground shook violently. A blinding yellow light swept across the ground, and the earth instantly petrified, turning grayish-white.

A dazzling purple light suddenly appeared within the golden lightning. The golden lightning instantly dispersed, and the Tree Demon vanished.

Dozens of golden lightning bolts tore through the sky, striking a towering tree.

A purple light suddenly shot out. The towering tree was pulverized by the golden lightning.

A loud shout rang out, and the purple light suddenly stopped, revealing the Tree Demon.

A scorched smell emanated from the Tree Demon, and its aura was weak.

The void rippled. A misty blue giant hand materialized out of thin air and instantly slapped down.

With a muffled thud, the Tree Demon was heavily pressed into the ground.

Specks of blue light suddenly emerged. After a blur, they transformed into Wang Changsheng's figure.

Wang Changsheng's expression was indifferent. He held the Glazed Spirit-Severing Axe in his hand.

The Tree Demon let out an extremely tragic scream. A swath of purple mist flew out, enveloping Wang Changsheng.

A fierce glint flashed in the Tree Demon's eyes. Countless purple tree trunks grew out, instantly lengthening and coiling around Wang Changsheng's body.

Golden thorns struck Wang Changsheng, sounding like they were hitting an impenetrable wall, producing muffled thuds.

The Tree Demon spat out a thick stream of purple poisonous fire, which struck Wang Changsheng, and rolling purple flames immediately engulfed his figure.

A surge of white flames erupted. The purple flames instantly shattered as if they had met their nemesis.

Wang Changsheng was enveloped in a shroud of white flames, his gaze cold.

Tree trunks touched the purple flames, instantly turning to ash.

A crackling sound of bones came from his body. His body suddenly swelled, and the purple mist shattered like a mirror, dissolving into specks of spiritual light and vanishing.

The Tree Demon was greatly alarmed and was about to use other methods. A sharp, piercing flute sound rang out. The Tree Demon felt its vision blur and suddenly found itself in a lush, dense forest.

"Illusion!" The Tree Demon's expression changed as it realized something. It felt an unbearable sharp pain course through its body and was abruptly pulled back to reality.

Wang Changsheng swung the Glazed Spirit-Severing Axe, cutting the Tree Demon in half and digging out a pale purple crystal core.

He breathed a sigh of relief, his face filled with joy.

The Tree Demon itself was a Purple Grapefruit Tree over ten thousand years old, making it an excellent material for artifact refining. Dozens of Purple Grapefruits had been destroyed, but a small portion remained.

Wang Changsheng picked all the remaining Purple Grapefruits, storing them one by one into jade boxes.

He put away the Purple Grapefruit Tree, saving it for artifact refining.

"Human cultivator? It's been a long time since I've had one." A cold, male voice suddenly came from high in the sky.

A strong gust of wind swept across the sky. A black vulture over a hundred zhang in size suddenly appeared high above.

The black vulture's head was bald, but its face was that of a man. Judging by its aura, it was clearly a sixth-order demonic bird.

"Human-faced Vulture!" Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan's expressions tightened. Their luck was truly terrible! To encounter a sixth-order demonic bird.

If the opponent had flown directly over, Wang Changsheng's powerful divine sense would have naturally detected it. But if the Human-faced Vulture used wind evasion, he truly wouldn't have been able to find it.

The Golden Eagle Puppet Beast flapped its wings, a loud thunderclap sounded, and with a flash of silver light, it suddenly vanished.

The next moment, a dazzling lightning glow suddenly lit up on the Human-faced Vulture's head. The Golden Eagle Puppet Beast suddenly reappeared.

Countless golden electric arcs suddenly emerged from the Golden Eagle Puppet Beast's body, transforming into blinding golden lightning, striking the Human-faced Vulture.

The Human-faced Vulture flapped its wings, stirring up a fierce gale. A dark, misty strong wind swept out. The golden lightning instantly dispersed as if it had met its nemesis, and the Golden Eagle Puppet Beast was also blown away by the black strong wind.

Several sharp, raucous cries rang out. Wang Changsheng felt restless and unable to concentrate.

A bright black light emanated from the Human-faced Vulture's body. It opened its mouth and inhaled, and a powerful airflow materialized out of thin air. A large amount of flying sand and loose stones flew towards it. Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan were uncontrollably drawn towards the Human-faced Vulture.

A bright blue light emanated from Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan's bodies. His aura rapidly increased to the peak of Soul Transformation. With a loud shout, the void vibrated and distorted.

Soul-Suppressing Roar! The Human-faced Vulture let out a miserable shriek. Its body trembled violently, like a frost-bitten eggplant. The powerful airflow instantly vanished.

Wang Changsheng raised his right hand. Three Underworld Moon Pearls flew out, instantly appearing before the Human-faced Vulture.

With three muffled bangs, the three Underworld Moon Pearls burst open. A large expanse of Styx River Water splashed out, sprinkling onto the Human-faced Vulture's body.

The Human-faced Vulture froze at a visible rate. Its body transformed into a black ice sculpture.

The Underworld Moon Pearls were a powerful weapon in Wang Changsheng's possession. This was his first time using them against a sixth-order demonic bird.

A joyous flute sound rang out. A misty blue sound wave swept over, passing over the black ice sculpture, which then shattered at a visible rate.

A miniature Human-faced Vulture shot out. The moment it left the body, the Myriad Souls Pagoda descended from the sky, covering the miniature Human-faced Vulture.

A sixth-order demonic bird carelessly died at Wang Changsheng's hands. If it had been a Void Refinement cultivator, it wouldn't have been so easy to succeed. Demonic birds' attack methods are singular, far less versatile than cultivators'.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan broke out in a cold sweat, their heads drenched.

The two were both shocked and delighted. They were shocked by the appearance of a sixth-order demonic bird, but delighted that they had eliminated it.

Before this, Wang Changsheng had not been confident in using the Underworld Moon Pearls to kill a sixth-order demonic beast. Now he felt reassured.

It seemed he had underestimated the properties of the Styx River Water. If he returned to the human realm, he would have to find a way to go to the lower realm and collect all the Styx River Water.

Of course, Wang Changsheng's ability to kill the sixth-order Human-faced Vulture was purely due to good luck. If his and Wang Ruyan's combined divine sense hadn't reached the level of a Void Refinement cultivator, the Soul-Suppressing Roar wouldn't have been able to harm the Human-faced Vulture, and the Underworld Moon Pearls would have been even less likely to get close to it. The Golden Eagle Puppet Beast was a good example of this.
