Chapter 601

A Fiendish Demon was a special creature formed by the condensation of evil aura. It was somewhat similar to a Wraith, but it was fundamentally different from a Wraith.

A Wraith grew by devouring souls, and its attack method was also a direct soul attack.

A Fiendish Demon, on the other hand, could only become stronger by relying on the condensation of evil aura. Its attack method was also to quickly corrode the enemy's physical body and soul, causing double damage.

The similarity was that both were immune to physical attacks, and their souls were relatively strong. Both looked like misty creatures, but the Vengeful Spirit was white, while the Fiendish Demon was black.

The Fiendish Demon on top of the Crimson Flame Demon Tree's head was a shadowy creature formed completely by the condensation of black mist. It was also extremely huge, at least five or six thousand meters tall.

The giant black shadow had no legs, and only its upper body could be seen floating in the air. Its entire figure was also extremely illusory, making it hard to see it clearly. Only the ferocious face of the Fiendish Demon was clearly visible, like a black grimace mask with a slight metallic luster.

The most special thing was that the Fiendish Demon did not open its mouth to make any sound, but the black evil aura floating around its body caused a strange friction sound in the air. The sound sounded a little like the whistling of the wind, but also like the wailing of some creature in an alternate dimension.

The Crimson Flame Demon Tree had just suffered Gu Ding's second Soul Shock, and it was obvious that the Fiendish Demon in front of him had blocked that attack. However, it was also obvious that Gu Ding's soul attack had no effect on this fellow.

"It seems that I underestimated this Fiendish Demon before. It's completely at sixth-rank True God level. Don't be contaminated by its evil aura. Even a sixth-rank True God will die quickly if they are contaminated by it. This evil aura will even cause a certain amount of trouble for a seventh-rank True God. "After seeing the complete form of the Fiendish Demon, Neptune further confirmed its strength.

"Roar!" The Fiendish Demon's gaze quickly locked onto Gu Ding. It seemed to know that Gu Ding was an enemy, and it let out a roar.

At the same time that the roar was released, a black mist spewed out of its mouth, sweeping toward Gu Ding like a wave.

Gu Ding frowned. This kind of area attack was very difficult to dodge, and with the strength of this evil aura, he would die if he touched it. He reached out and touched the second Guardian Crystal Card. Just as he was about to crush it, he felt a strange movement in his soul space.

Before he could react, he discovered that the demon face above his head had automatically taken shape.

Gu Ding was stunned for a moment. Before he could crush the crystal card in his hand, he saw the demon face above him open its mouth wide and swallow the black mist-like murderous aura.

"The demon face has such an effect?" Gu Ding could not help but mutter in a low voice.

"That devilish face of yours should be one of the most ferocious things in the world. It actually transcends the limits of your cultivation base and can even absorb such a terrifying baleful aura." He had always known that there was a secret in Gu Ding's body, but he had never found out what it was. Although he had seen the demon face appear many times, he could not find any information about this demon face, not even a word about it. He could only guess that this thing might be a powerful primordial bloodline, or even an even more ancient and powerful existence.

The evil aura of the fiend was quickly swallowed by the devilish face, and it did not stain Gu Ding's body at all.

The fiend did not seem to be very intelligent. Seeing that its attack was ineffective, it let out an even louder howl and then continued to spit evil aura.

The black devilish face naturally did not hold back. It opened its mouth again and swallowed all the evil aura into its body.

Gu Ding could clearly feel that the aura of the devilish face was stronger than before. He put the crystal card in his hand into his sleeve and was not in a hurry to use it. If he killed the fiend and the Crimson Flame Demon Tree now, the devilish face would not be able to absorb the evil aura.

However, the fiend's two attacks were ineffective, and the Crimson Flame Demon Tree knew that there was something wrong with the projection of the devilish face above Gu Ding's head. It suddenly let out a low roar, and the fiend's movements paused. The next moment, it stopped spitting evil aura attacks.

"Sure enough, this guy can control the fiend. This fiend must have been condensed by it by some means!" Neptune judged as soon as he saw the scene. "The fiend itself is an amalgamation of evil aura. Its consciousness is chaotic, and the only thing it can do is attack all living things within its detection range. It is impossible for it to stop attacking automatically. Now that it has stopped attacking, it is obvious that it has received instructions from the Crimson Flame Demon Tree and is acting according to the instructions. "

"Hmm …" Seeing that the fiend had stopped attacking, the devilish face above Gu Ding's head suddenly made a sound.

After this sound was made, the fiend's body seemed to shake, and its eyes suddenly turned a strange purple. After letting out a mournful howl, it spat out evil aura again. This time, the evil aura it spat out was purple.

The purple evil aura seemed to have a life of its own as it madly attacked the black devilish face.

The devilish face opened its mouth and began to swallow the evil aura frantically again.

Gu Ding was stunned by what he saw. "What's going on? Did the devilish face say something provocative? "

"No, creatures like the fiend have extremely low intelligence. Even if it really said something provocative, it wouldn't understand. It's even more unlikely to launch a more intense attack than before because of this provocation, "Neptune gave a negative answer. "The devilish face must have given a more powerful order, so the fiend disobeyed the Crimson Flame Demon Tree's orders."

"This guess doesn't make sense. The fiend is controlled by the demon tree because it was created by the demon tree. But how could it listen to the devilish face? "Gu Ding expressed his doubts.

"If it's a higher-up pressuring a lower-up, it's possible." Neptune still felt that the devilish face had just given an order. "The more brutal the fighting in the dimension, the more vividly this higher-up law is reflected. Like the Abyss Dimension, Purgatory Dimension, Death Dimension, and so on. In these kinds of dimensions, the higher-ups have absolute power to kill the lower-ups. "

Neptune was chatting with Gu Ding when the Crimson Flame Demon Tree suddenly attacked. With its intelligence, it naturally knew that the black devilish face above Gu Ding's head was strange. It immediately controlled the branches to sweep toward the devilish face, trying to use physical attacks to interfere with the devilish face's continued swallowing.

However, the attacks from the branches did not affect the devilish face's swallowing at all. They directly passed through, causing the Crimson Flame Demon Tree's attack to miss.

Gu Ding also saw this scene and could not help but laugh. "The devilish face came out of my soul space. It's completely in a spirit body state. How can a physical attack be effective?"

The Crimson Flame Demon Tree seemed to have sensed something when its attack failed. Its gaze shifted from the devilish face to Gu Ding.

The branches that filled the sky suddenly changed direction and shot toward Gu Ding.

Gu Ding did not hesitate and directly crushed the second crystal card in his hand. This time, a golden palm appeared out of thin air.

The golden palm pushed out in front of Gu Ding. Wherever it passed, the space trembled, and all the branches of the demon tree turned into powder.

The Crimson Flame Demon Tree had seen Gu Ding use a similar method to kill the cat-type demon beast earlier. It had thought that Gu Ding could only use this method once, but it did not expect Gu Ding to use it a second time. It was suddenly scared out of its wits and automatically cut off a section of its roots. That section of root was like a slippery loach, and it directly drilled into the depths of the soil.

In the next moment, the golden palm grabbed the trunk of the entire tree. The giant hand suddenly exerted force and uprooted the entire tree, causing the mountains and rivers of the world to tremble. Even the sky let out a mournful cry.

The demon tree that was held by the hand let out a shrill scream. The scream only lasted for a moment before its soul was completely erased. At the same time, the devil on top of the demon tree's head was completely shaken by the grip. It turned into a black mist and was swallowed by the black devilish face. Only then did the black devilish face slowly dissipate with satisfaction.

The golden palm also quickly disappeared.

Gu Ding did not bother to be polite. He directly put the giant tree and the surrounding corpses into his Inventory, and then quickly left.

After Gu Ding left for a long time, a small snake-like grayish-brown root drilled out of the ground. After looking around, it drilled into the soil again and disappeared.

Under Neptune's instructions, Gu Ding arrived at a nearby city a few hours later. Then, he directly used the teleportation formation and was teleported to Shattrath City.

What he did not know was that his use of the crystal card twice had brought about a movement from a tenth-rank king, causing the Heavenly God who had been in a state of deep sleep to slowly wake up.

In a magnificent palace, a white-haired young man who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old suddenly opened his eyes in an ice crystal coffin.

The coffin lid opened automatically, and his whole body floated up into the air. His white hair was scattered all the way down to his waist. He had a delicate face, but the look in his eyes was domineering.

"Incomparably strong tenth-rank aura, and two of them appeared one after another …"

The white-haired young man murmured in a low voice. With doubts in his heart, an incomparably vigorous soul force swept out, instantly cleansing the entire world. "Nothing? How could this be? I clearly felt two tenth-rank energies erupt one after another. Moreover, they're incomparably powerful. They've been at this level for at least millions of years and are extremely close to heavenly god-level … It can't be an illusion!

"But I've only slept for more than thirty thousand years this time. It stands to reason that a tenth-rank fellow shouldn't have appeared in such a short interval. Moreover, my investigation couldn't find the existence of a tenth-rank powerhouse. In that case, the only reasonable explanation is … It's most likely an outsider! If it's an outsider, it makes perfect sense for them to appear at this time. It's also possible that they have special means to shield themselves from my investigation. Hehe, I wonder what it'll taste like when an outsider eats it. I'm really looking forward to it … "
