"Swish, swish, swish!!!"
In an instant, Chen Jiuyang felt the surge of emotions from despair to irritability, anger, bloodlust, and demonic urges.
Even knowing about the second law in advance, Chen Jiuyang's expression couldn't help but darken.
If one were to be invaded by this peculiar law, they would subsequently fall prey to the third strange law of mutation and degeneration.
If he, with his cultivation of the Venerable Realm and his self-created Yuan Dao, was like this, then others were even more so.
Chen Jiuyang turned his head and saw that Yuan Wu Demon Lord and Bing Huang Demon Lord had contorted faces, their eyes filled with frenzied killing intent, veins bulging on their foreheads, their eyes bloodshot, and their hands clenched, desperately resisting the impact of this second peculiar law.
Fortunately, both were cultivators of the Soul Transformation stage, their minds and Dao hearts not easily collapsing, preventing them from degenerating and mutating into mad demons.
Chen Jiuyang quickly calmed his mind, circulated his Yuan Dao, and then the Pure Lotus Sacred Fire appeared.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss!"
The golden sacred fire enveloped Chen Jiuyang, beginning to burn, purify, and devour.
In an instant, the negative emotions in Chen Jiuyang's heart were digested and cleared.
Looking at Yuan Wu Demon Lord and Bing Huang Demon Lord struggling to resist the peculiar law, Chen Jiuyang flicked his finger, sending strands of Pure Lotus Sacred Fire to envelop them.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss!"
The sound of burning echoed. The effect was not very strong, but it was enough for the two to return to normal.
"Senior Brother Qian Yang is truly powerful, to be able to help us escape the power of the peculiar laws in this Meteor Immortal Cliff." After returning to normal, the two immediately cupped their fists and said with a smile.
Chen Jiuyang's expression was calm, and he returned the salute, "There is no need for politeness, esteemed friends. This is not my power, but the inheritance of Ancestor 'Qing Jue'."
The two slowly nodded, both agreeing with Chen Jiuyang's statement. No matter how monstrous Chen Jiuyang was, it was impossible for him to have created such an incredible method capable of purifying the power of laws.
The next moment, Chen Jiuyang suddenly drew his saber and slashed fiercely behind the flying boat!
"Boom!!"
"Roar!!!"
A figure was struck by the saber, letting out a chilling and terrifying roar that sent shivers down one's spine.
Yuan Wu Demon Lord and Bing Huang's expressions immediately changed slightly, and they unleashed their Dharma manifestations.
Martial God, Immortal Aspect.
Yuan Wu Demon Lord manifested a Dharma appearance that was entirely azure, with an exceptionally handsome and evil countenance, possessing six arms. Each muscular arm held a tangible weapon.
Bing Huang Demon Lord was enveloped in phoenix-blood-red armor, with a cryptic talisman on every inch of the armor.
As the Dharma manifestations of the two appeared, torrents of majestic spiritual power surged forth, attacking the figure in the blood rain and smashing down fiercely.
"Boom!!"
Another loud noise, and the figure was sent flying, falling into the vast, dark, and terrifying forest below, disappearing from sight.
Yuan Wu Demon Lord immediately frowned. His six-armed Dharma manifestation shifted, one arm holding a bow, and the other hand wielding a sword as an arrow. Majestic spiritual power intertwined, the surrounding spiritual energy instantly became chaotic, and the Dharma manifestation drew a full moon. An azure arrow was instantly shot from the string, soaring towards the direction of the forest where the figure had disappeared.
"Bang—"
In an instant, hundreds of large trees were destroyed, revealing a swamp teeming with various poisonous creatures and insects beneath the forest.
"Roar!!!"
In the darkness, the figure let out another roar like a mad demon.
Yuan Wu Demon Lord snorted coldly, and his Dharma manifestation changed again. Arrows condensed from spiritual power instantly filled the bow, and hundreds of arrows were shot forth.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Violent explosions continued to erupt.
After dozens of breaths, the figure hidden in the darkness was irrevocably dead.
Once they confirmed that there was no longer any danger, the Dharma manifestations on their bodies disappeared, and they slowly piloted the flying boat forward.
"Sizzle!"
Countless colorful and dangerous snakes and insects immediately swarmed into the massive corpse to feed, and then all perished.
Only at this point did the three clearly see the appearance of the corpse.
It was a colossal being, five meters tall, like a small mountain. The upper body of a giant snake was in its eye sockets, and the lower body was that of a spider's legs, making it look incredibly grotesque.
Bing Huang Demon Lord frowned and said:
"Although I had a premonition, I didn't expect that martial artists and cultivators, when degenerating and mutating, would combine with demonic creatures. They are neither human nor demon. With such an appearance, despite only having Golden Core stage cultivation, they possess the strength of Nascent Soul stage cultivators. It is truly bizarre."
Chen Jiuyang said, "The records in my True Saint Sect are precisely this. There are no normal creatures in this Meteor Immortal Cliff; they are all mad demons and monsters. Their strength and danger are extremely high, but their intelligence is not strong."
Yuan Wu Demon Lord said, "Under this peculiar blood rain, our divine senses are obstructed, making it impossible to investigate... This corpse is filled with poison and is good material. I will take it. Do esteemed friends have any objections?"
"No."
"This was killed by Senior Brother Yuan Wu, so all materials belong to Senior Brother Yuan Wu."
Yuan Wu Demon Lord nodded, then retracted the spatial ring, collecting the mad demon corpse into his spatial ring.
"Continue the journey."
With the flying boat, there was no need to carve out temporary living caves. All three were powerful beings.
...
Far behind them, Wang Jieguang piloted the flying boat, taking Qin Rouyu towards a safe place. They had also entered this vast and boundless forest.
Wang Jieguang was at the Nascent Soul stage, and Qin Rouyu was at the Golden Core stage. Both had cultivated special Kunlun techniques and were less affected by the peculiar laws.
Suddenly, a chilling sensation washed over both of them.
"Rumble!!"
The flying boat was struck by something. The two turned their heads and saw a mad demon with a human upper body, mantis scythes for arms, and hundreds of centipedes crawling on its body, emerging and burrowing within, looking both terrifying and disgusting.
"Mad demon!!!"
Qin Rouyu's face turned somewhat grim: "Senior Sister, wasn't this a safe route... why are there mad demons..."
"Junior Sister, let's not talk about that for now. You control the flying boat, and I'll deal with the mad demon." Wang Jieguang immediately circulated her spiritual power, attacking the mad demon.
Qin Rouyu gritted her teeth and quickly took over control of the flying boat, flying forward rapidly.
Then, her face instantly turned ashen. She saw dozens, even hundreds, of strangely shaped mad demons before her. She trembled and said, "Senior Sister... we're in big trouble."
Wang Jieguang turned her head and her face immediately became extremely grim: "How... how can there be so many mad demons..."
Suddenly, that sense of despair, terror, annoyance, rage, and bloodlust surged within the hearts of the two.
It was like the whispers of demons echoing in their ears.
"Save me, save me..."
"It's very safe here, come to me."
The eyes of the two women momentarily became dazed, then they forcibly regained their composure.
The two immediately realized something was wrong. Wang Jieguang immediately grabbed Qin Rouyu's hand, abandoned the flying boat entangled by the mad demons, and used a遁法 (escape technique), transforming into streaks of light and shooting towards the distance.
However, in the darkness, countless terrifying eyes were staring at them, as if hunting prey.
