Chapter 1158: Chapter 1048: Thank You
The Golden Eagle and those four Demon Cultivators were stunned upon hearing his words.
"Be careful!" The Golden Eagle gave Li Zhirui a worried glance, choosing not to waste more words and targeted one of the more powerful Demon Cultivators to attack.
The dazzling golden light and the sharp Wind Blades precisely shot towards the Demon Cultivator, forcing him to defend himself.
"Hahahaha!"
"I don’t know whether to say you are seeking your own death or simply being senseless."
The Demon Cultivators laughed unrestrainedly, completely disregarding Li Zhirui.
"Since that beast has chosen you, then you should not contend with us."
"Hmph!"
The Demon Cultivator chosen by the Golden Eagle snorted coldly, his face revealing a cruel smile, saying: "Soon you will realize, this choice of yours is a huge mistake."
Before his words fell, he transformed into a streak of black light rushing towards the Golden Eagle, his body emanating Evil Qi as if haunted by numerous Fierce Ghosts.
Squawk!
The Golden Eagle let out a long cry towards the sky, emitting dazzling golden light, boldly confronting the attack.
The battle between man and eagle was intensely fierce, the generated shockwaves stirring up wild winds.
However, with both sides equally matched, they couldn’t determine a winner for the moment, and during the fight, they moved to one side with considerable understanding to avoid being affected by another even more perilous and fierce battle nearby.
...
"All of you, come at once!" Li Zhirui calmly spoke, but upon closer observation, one could perceive the seriousness in his eyes, which was not as relaxed as he appeared.
This action of his was very risky as the three opponents were all Integration Demon Cultivators whose cultivation was almost equal to Li Zhirui’s.
As we know, the higher the cultivation, the more difficult it is to create a disparity among equals, especially these Demon Cultivators who had crawled out from the Gu Pool and had tainted their hands with countless lives yet survived until now, certainly possessing unique abilities.
Yet, Li Zhirui was still willing to take the risk. Even if he couldn’t beat them, he could still save his life without any worries.
Of course, Li Zhirui was aiming to resolve the hidden troubles in his Mental State and would not hide in The Void to seek refuge as he did before, unless he was truly on the verge of death.
"What a big talker! Let me teach you a lesson!"
One of the Demon Cultivators, in extreme rage yet sneering, charged forward without waiting for the other two.
The other two had no intention to charge together; after all, such cooperation almost doesn’t exist in the Demonic Tao, and sometimes they even had to be wary of their so-called comrades.
They followed at a leisurely pace, looking like they planned to launch a surprise attack from the side.
Li Zhirui frowned slightly; he had forgotten that Demon Cultivators rarely work together, and it seemed they were likely planning to wear him down through sequenced attacks.
This substantially reduced the level of danger, but it also meant Li Zhirui could not achieve his original intent.
However, with the intense battle ongoing, Li Zhirui had no time to think further. Quickly gathering his thoughts, facing an Integration stage Demon Cultivator and interceptions from two equal Cultivators, if he let himself be distracted, he wouldn’t even know how he might die!
Ghahaha—
As soon as the Demon Cultivator Shaluo made his move, there was a cacophony of ghostly wails, and a great mass of black Qi burst forth, from which a large number of Fierce Ghosts emerged.
In an instant, they appeared in front of Li Zhirui, opening their huge mouths wide, fiercely biting towards him.
Boom!
Unknowingly, a sphere of Thunder Light appeared in Li Zhirui’s palm, from which strands of thunderbolts flew out, fiercely striking the Fierce Ghosts and smashing half of their bodies apart.
Li Zhirui possessed the Demonslaying Divine Ability, mostly consisting of aggressive and Yang-based Thunder Skills or some Fire Attribute Divine Abilities, which were difficult for him to learn and less powerful since he opposed those attributes.
Therefore, after obtaining the Divine Abilities, he focused all his efforts on Thunder Skills.
Moreover, Thunder Skills are generally more powerful than other Divine Powers; even if not used against Demon Cultivators, they could still exhibit strong battle power against Cultivators and Devil Beasts.
"No wonder you have the gall to confront the three of us, turns out you excel in Thunder Skills! But do you think that is enough to triumph over us?"
Shaluo’s face revealed a look of disdain, saying: "Now let me show you, Thunder Skills don’t suppress us as much as you think." 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝒄𝙤𝙢
He formed hand seals, and a dense dark fog appeared, quickly transforming into a huge Ghost General of ten meters tall, clad in mysterious armor, wielding a large halberd, followed by tens of thousands of densely packed Ghost Soldiers holding spears and shields.
Upon their appearance, the surrounding space was filled with a sinister and ferocious Evil Qi, forming a protective cover over their heads.
"Kill!"
The Ghost General roared up to the heavens, pointing his halberd directly at Li Zhirui, charging forward with the Ghost Soldiers behind him.
Their momentum was overwhelming and their menace fierce.
These tens of thousands of Fierce Ghosts surprisingly formed a special Formation, attacking Li Zhirui with an unstoppable force.
Li Zhirui threw out the sphere of thunder in his palm, causing another thunderous explosion, but it didn’t cause much damage to them.
However, the protective cover shielding them became much dimmer.
Thus, it wasn’t that Thunder Skills were ineffective against this Evil Qi; rather, their numbers were so vast that the Thunder Skills were wholly exhausted.
"Hahaha, with just these tricks, you might as well surrender quietly!" Seeing that Li Zhirui’s attack was ineffective, Shaluo laughed mockingly.
"Is that so?" Li Zhirui remained calm; what he had used was just ordinary Thunder Skills, not the Demon-Slaying Thunder Skills he learned from the Qianling Realm.
Now he was really putting them to use!
As his Mana circulated, a pale green thunderbolt struck down from The Void.
Crack—
This seemingly unremarkable thunderbolt shattered nearly half of the Fierce Ghosts’ protective cover, the shattered thunder light falling on the Ghost Soldiers, causing them to wail continuously, their forms becoming much more transparent.
