My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife - Chapter 1344

Chapter 1344: Hunting Down Qingfeng Li

 

The Taotie was chasing after Qingfeng, which gave the others the chance to escape. Everyone tried to run as fast as possible, but some people chose to stay. They were Jianhuang Zhao, Binghuang Dao, and Yihuang Shou. These three sect masters had chosen to stay behind because their eyes were on the Immortal’s Sutra that was still there.

Jianhuang Zhao was the first one to react, he took a step earlier than the others, grabbed the Immortal’s Sutra, and ran off right away.

Binghuang Dao’s face changed after seeing Jianhuang Zhao running way, as he yelled out, “Jianhuang Zhao, put the Immortal’s Sutra down.”

But Jianhuang Zhao did not heed his warning, choosing instead to run even faster and disappearing in a moment.

Binghuang Dao cried in indignation. Even though he was good friends with Jianhuang Zhao and they fought together against Qingfeng Li earlier, now they were fighting for their own benefits and for the Immortal’s Sutra.

“Jianhuang Zhao, do not think that you can escape after you snatched the Immortal’s Sutra, I won’t let you off that easily,” Binghuang Dao shouted as he flew up into the sky and chased after Jianhuang Zhao.

He would never let the Immortal’s Sutra fall out of his hands, since it was a treasure that he wanted to obtain.

Yihuang Shou also looked livid, and he chased after Jianhuang Zhao too.

Yihuang Shou also cursed secretly, “That damned Jianhuang Zhao, he stole the Immortal’s Sutra away.”

The Immortal’s Sutra was a treasure, one that could even help a cultivator to become an immortal. Every self-cultivator wanted to have it with no exceptions.

The other self-cultivators also all split up, most of them went in the direction of Jianhuang Zhao to find the Immortal’s Sutra, while the others escaped in different directions.

The Taotie was concentrated on hunting down Qingfeng Li, so it had no time to go after the others.

The biggest enemy to the ancient ferocious beast right now was Qingfeng Li. It must catch Qingfeng Li and slice him into eight pieces, and only then would it appease the hatred piled up in its heart.

Qingfeng Li was running non-stopping as if he was flying, channeling the vital essence stored in his body frantically. The Taotie was chasing after him furiously, and the distance between the two was shrinking.

Even though the Taotie’s body was enormous and might seem too fat to move, it was one of the ten ancient ferocious beasts and was able to run at a very fast speed.

The distance between Taotie and Qingfeng Li changed from one kilometer to eight hundred meters, then six hundred meters, and then five hundred meters; the distance was getting shorter and shorter.

Qingfeng Li’s face was very serious, and a cold light flashed across his eyes. He knew that if he continued to run at this speed, the Taotie would catch up to him in no time.

“Damn it, that fatty is so fast! Where should I run to?” Qingfeng Li tried to figure out a route to escape to.

“Senior Fire Dragon, is there only this Taotie in hell, or are there other dangers?” Qingfeng Li frowned, and asked the soul of the Fire Dragon residing in his mind.

The Fire Dragon responded, “Little brat, there are at least two ancient ferocious beasts suppressed on the second floor of Hell. The Taotie is just one of them, and there should be something even stronger.”

Upon hearing the Fire Dragon’s message, Qingfeng Li felt thrilled.

He tried to hold back his excitement and responded to the Fire Dragon, “Senior Fire Dragon, how can I find the other ancient ferocious beast? I want to induce a conflict between them to buy me some time to escape.”

The soul of the Fire Dragon thought for a moment and said, “I better come out and help you, or else you will be killed by the Taotie before you find the other ancient ferocious beast.”

The soul of the Fire Dragon flew out of Qingfeng Li’s mind, and transformed into an ancient Godly Dragon. Its whole body was the colour of burning gold, and it had fire on its body from head to tail. The fierce flame lit up the second floor of hell.

The Taotie was chasing after Qingfeng Li until there were only ten meters left between them. This distance was very dangerous, as it could have eaten Qingfeng Li at once. But at this critical moment, Taotie caught a glance of the Godly Dragon above Qingfeng Li’s head.

The Fire Dragon was one of the Godly Dragons from back during the ancient era. It was a godly beast, the born enemy of the Taotie. It lived on land, but the Taotie lived in hell.

Taotie roared at the Fire Dragon with anger in its voice, they were enemies back in ancient continents and they had battled against each other many times.

The soul of the Fire Dragon opened its mouth, and formed a ball of Heaven-Earth Flame, which contained extremely high temperatures. It was the Godly Dragon’s flame, and it could burn everything in this world into ashes. The ball of fiery light shot onto the Taotie’s body, scorching its body with white smoke filling the air as it cried miserably.

While the Taotie was screaming, the Fire Dragon shouted, “Qingfeng Li, run to the north! There is a demonic beast named the Qiongqi. It can help you to fight against the Taotie.”

Qingfeng Li nodded, and he bolted toward the north, Qingfeng Li knew that the soul of the Fire Dragon only had limited power, and it could only make at most one or two fire attacks.

As he went north, Qingfeng Li felt colder and colder. His body began trembling, it was super cold.

Qingfeng Li manipulated the fire vital essence inside his body to resist against the cold. He also used the Mortal Purgatory Body to make his body even stronger so he could resist the chilling aura of Hell.

Fortunately, Qingfeng Li refined the Hell Flower, so he was able to endure hell’s coldness. If it was any other person that came here, they would have become an ice-cube by now.

The Taotie, which was behind Qingfeng Li finally realized the situation. It watched Qingfeng Li who was running away, and a murderous look of anger flashed across its eyes.

“Human, how dare you collude with the Fire Dragon to attack me?! I will not let you guys off easily,” Taotie said coldly, and gave off an intensified murderous vibe.

As a legendary demonic beast, the Taotie was also very smart. It had noticed that the Fire Dragon that was attacking it was only a fragment of its soul and did not have a real body.

This meant that its attack power was limited, as long as Taotie could catch up to them, it could kill both of them.

Taotie stomped the ground with its huge feet and flew into the air. It was like a huge black mountain, which covered the sky and sun, chasing after Qingfeng Li.

The angered Taotie was even stronger, and everything in Hell backed away from it.

Whether it was those demonic beasts or plants in hell, everything that had the ability to think all ran away.

Qingfeng Li glanced back and noticed that the Taotie was getting closer and closer to him, almost scaring him to death and making him run even harder.

Finally, Qingfeng Li saw a sihoulette at the horizon. It was enormous, as big as a building.

It crept there, was the size of a cow and had the appearance of a tiger, but its body was covered with a hedgehog-like skin. It had wings, barked like a dog, and sustained itself by eating humans.

Chapter 1345: Ruyan, Wait for Me

 

Qingfeng Li concentrated his attention on the demonic beast that was lying there and resting, yet the whole world was trembling around it.

The dark aura of Hell was like raging rivers of dark energy constantly entering the demonic beast’s body. The beast was actually able to absorb all the energy and convert it into his own.

This demonic beast was too strong! It was actually able to absorb Hell’s dark energy. Upon seeing this, Qingfeng Li was dumbfounded.

Qingfeng Li looked at this legendary demonic beast and asked, “Fire Dragon Senior, what is that demonic beast? How can it be so strong?”

The soul of the Fire Dragon became serious and said, “That is Qiongqi, it is one of the Ten Ancient Ferocious Demonic Beasts and is notorious for eating humans. It even ate saints back during the ancient era.”

“What, even some saints were eaten by it?!” Upon hearing the Fire Dragon’s words, Qingfeng’s face changed, and shock appeared in his eyes.

Qingfeng Li was a self-cultivator, and a member of the world of self-cultivation. It was obvious that he knew what saints represented. They were the strongest self-cultivators of a planet.

One punch from a saint was enough to destroy a planet, but there were no more saints on Earth now, since all of them died during the ancient era and only some weak self-cultivators had survived left.

But now, the legendary demonic beast who was not far away from Qingfeng Li was said to be able to kill saints. This was enough to make Qingfeng Li feel shocked. If it escaped from Hell, then the whole Earth would be in trouble.

The soul of the Fire Dragon saw through Qingfeng Li’s thoughts and said, “Don’t worry about that since there are seals in Hell, as well as the suppression from the Heavenly Dao. As soon as these legendary demonic beasts escape this place, they will be attacked by the Heavenly Dao.”

Qingfeng Li nodded and realized that the Peacock Demonic Empress from the Dragon Tiger Mountain was also a legendary master, who was famous on Earth and was even renowned in the universe.

But when the Peacock Demon Empress was reborned, it was suppressed by the Heavenly Dao’s Thunder Pool and Zephyr Pool.

Qingfeng Li was very fast, and it arrived within the Qiongqi’s territory within a moment. He was very close to the Qiongqi, and the Qiongqi also sensed some human approaching, so it opened its eyes.

“Human, I can almost taste the delicious blood from your body. Are you here to deliver me a meal?” Qiongqi looked at Qingfeng and sneered excitedly.

Back during the ancient era, the Qiongqi always devoured humans. It ate many heavenly materials and earthly treasures, on top of spirit kings, spirit emperors, spirit supremes, and saints.

But as Earth was destroyed, it was also suppressed under the Kunlun Mountains by the Sky Emperor. It could never come out again, nor could it devour human.

The Qiongqi had not eaten humans during the thousands of years it was imprisoned here, so it missed the taste very much. It finally met a human today, and since it would be able to taste the flavour of human again, it was very happy.

Not to mention that this human exuded the scent of holy blood, which was its favorite thing.

Qingfeng Li pointed at the Qiongqi with his index finger and said arrogantly, “You dumbass, you want to eat me? Do you know who my boss is? My boss is the Taotie! My boss said that it is going to kill you and barbecue you! We will be drinking beer and eating barbecue tonight!”

Qingfeng Li was very arrogant, as he put one hand on his hips and pointed at the Qiongqi with the other, his head raised and eyes to the sky. That kind of appearance looked as if he was the most arrogant person on earth.

Looking at Qingfeng’s actions, the Qiongqi was furious. Its whole body was trembling and its eyes were filled with rage.

“Damned human, what did you just say? You are going to make me into barbecue? Do you know who I am?” the Qiongqi looked at Qingfeng Li and said coldly.

Qingfeng Li laughed arrogantly and sneered, “Of course I know who you are! My boss, the Taotie, said that you are just a piece of crap. It will kill you tonight. Since you are just wasting oxygen by being alive, it is better to make you into barbecue.”

After Qingfeng Li said those words, he pointed to the Taotie who was chasing after him with his finger, and said, “That is my boss. If you want to eat me, kill my big boss first and then have your way with me.”

After saying those words, Qingfeng Li let out a big laugh and quickly ran to the side with arrogance on his face. The direction he ran to was the direction that could get him away from the Taotie and the Qiongqi.

The Taotie finally caught up and, as it was about to continue to chase after Qingfeng Li, it was stopped by the Qiongqi.

“Qiongqi, what are you doing? Why are you blocking me and not letting me pass?” A vicious look appeared in Taotie’s eyes, as it asked savagely.

A vicious look also appeared in Qiongqi’s eyes, it said coldly, “Today, you are not getting away, I am going to kill you and barbecue you.”

After saying those, the Qiongqi opened its wings, and flew into the air right away, shooting out a black ray at the Taotie.

This black ray was very strong; it shot open a huge crater in hell right away. Whether it was the air or the ground, nothing could prevent the ray from punching through. The ray seemed like it could cut through everything on Earth.

The Taotie changed its face greatly, and swung its enormous claws to form a black protection veil, which collided with the ray.

Boom!

The two collided, which created an ear-shattering thud. The sky of the second floor of hell cracked right away, like a mirror that was destroyed by someone with an axe and became full of cracks and scratches.

The Taotie and the Qiongqi’s attacks were too strong, since they were both legendary demonic beasts.

Back during the ancient era, there existed those who were were strong enough to fight saints. Fortunately, the Sky Emperor had placed down several seals on Hell, so those ancient demonic beasts could not fight their way out.

Even then, the tons of energy formed by the two ancient earth demonic beasts spread to the surroundings, and everything around was broken into pieces and disappeared.

Even though Qingfeng Li ran somewhere very far away, at least two thousand meters away, he was still affected by this stream of energy, as if he was hit by a huge meteorite.

Qingfeng Li’s body suddenly rushed forward and hit the ground. His face became pale and he spat out some blood. His body was severely injured.

“Ancient demonic beasts are too strong, I am so far away but still was greatly injured. If I had been any closer to them, I would’ve been dead for sure,” Qingfeng Li thought to himself and felt scared.

Qingfeng Li thought that the soul of the Fire Dragon was instrumental in his survival after traveling through the second floor of Hell. Even though that guy ate his Hell Flower along with some of his other treasures, he was still pretty nice to him.

If it was not for the Fire Dragon, it would have been very difficult for Qingfeng to escape from the second floor of Hell, especially after meeting the Taotie.

Qingfeng Li concentrated his spirit energy and his mind went into the interspatial ring. He saw the Saint Perishing Fruit inside and happiness filled his eyes. His bad mood from becoming injured also lightened.

“Ruyan, my baby, wait for me, I already got the Saint Perishing Fruit, and I am going back to Huaxia to save you soon,” Qingfeng said to himself and a tender look appeared in his eyes.

Chapter 1346: Black Hell Ants

 

Behind Qingfeng Li, the Taotie and Qiongqi were still battling each other. They were both ferocious beasts from the ancient era, each possessing immense power. Their battle arena extended far into the air and deep into the ground, and they had shaken and shattered everything within their reach. The sun and the moon had been dimmed and blocked out, and even the space in the second level of Hell was rocking and rumbling. It was as though doomsday had come.

Qingfeng Li knew that he could not stay in here for long. If he did not get out immediately, these two legendary ferocious beasts would eventually come to realization of what was happening and tear him to pieces.

Qingfeng Li sprinted through the second level of hell, quickly escaping from the Taotie and Qiongqi.

Qingfeng Li knew that he had to get far away from those two beasts – the farther the better, or else they would still be able to sense his aura. And when that happened, it would be the end of him.

It was difficult enough for Qingfeng Li to take on one legendary ferocious beast already. In fact, he actually could not even deal with one. If he had two coming after him, then his death would be certain.

When Qingfeng Li was running through the second level of hell, he saw a lot of white bones scattered on the ground. Those bones were all that remained after the ferocious beasts had eaten off the flesh. They looked gruesome and miserable.

Even though Hell held a copious amount of spiritual devices that could help self-cultivators level up and strengthen, they also came with plenty of risks. These risks were mainly due to the many unknown factors lurking in this place.

Not only were there ancient beasts, there were also ancient poisonous pests. There were even devils, though they were usually trapped and suppressed below the third level of Hell. Every now and then, a few would escape and wander onto other levels. Those were lost and wandering souls, and they could make things very difficult for self-cultivators.

“I need to find the Wolf Fang Team and get them out of here too.” Qingfeng Light sent out his spirit energy in all directions in search of the aura of the Wolf Fang Team.

Qingfeng Li knew those in the Wolf Fang Team very well, and he even had a device set up on Daoist’s body. That was a miniature talisman scripture device Qingfeng Li designed himself after he obtained and mastered the knowledge of talisman scriptures.

The Wolf Fang Team was not in the northern direction as Qingfeng Li just escaped from the battle of the two legendary ferocious beasts fighting there; he could not sense them in the south or west direction neither. Qingfeng Li frowned as he locked his spirit energy onto the east.

Qingfeng Li sent his spirit energy into the east direction, and his face lit up as he was finally able to pick up the aura of his comrades.

As Qingfeng Li stomped his foot on the ground, launched his body into the air and started sprinting above ground level. Like a mythical immortal, he flew towards the east side of Hell.

At this moment, 100 kilometers towards the east on the second level of Hell, the Wolf Fang Team was in danger.

Actually, not only the Wolf Fang Sect, all the other self-cultivators that they were with – a few thousands of them, had all run into danger. Their way was blocked by an army of ants.

Also, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, Flower Fairy, Xianzhi Qin, and Fengwu Cao were all by Wolf Fang Sect’s side.

Staring at the ants before her eyes, Flower Fairy asked, “Puppy, what are those things? How are they so strong?”

Black Puppy looked very concerned as he answered, “They are black hell ants.”

Upon hearing Black Puppy’s response, the Wolf Fang Team, Flower Fairy, and the others became puzzled and confused. They had no idea what kind of species the black hell ants were, as they had never seen or heard of them.

Even though it had never run into black hell ants in the past, Black Puppy had learned of the ferociousness of these creatures. Just a while ago, a few dozen self-cultivators wanted to break through to the other side, but the black hell ants swarmed all over their bodies instantaneously. Within 10 seconds, only a pile of white bones remained.

There were ants on Earth, but they were very different from the ants in hell.

Ants on Earth were usually very small, most only the size of a grain of rice. But the ants in hell were gigantic in comparison, each one of them was almost the size of a soccer ball.

Moreover, the size of their leader was even bigger than a soccer ball – it was of the size of a bathroom sink.

The thought of a bathroom sink-sized ant was scary enough. Still, these black hell ants had jet black bodies, rock-hard exoskeletons, and sharp claws – every part of their body exuded an aura of intimidation.

These were all meat-eating ants, and their favourite food was human flesh.

Flower Fairy and the others were all very strong, they had all reached the spirit king realm now.

Especially Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake, they were of the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm, and their combat abilities were comparable to those in the Spirit Emperor Realm. They could hold their own even against the sect masters of the four greatest emperor level sects. Even then, they did not dare to confront the black hell ants in front of them.

Black Puppy looked to Sky-Devouring Snake and asked, “Hey snob, any good idea on how to get pass them?”

Sky-Devouring Snake shook its head and replied, “I have no idea. Every one of these black hell ants are extremely strong and has immense physical strength. In addition, they have long resided in Hell and have been contaminated by the aura here. Only with the power of lightning and flames can we kill them. There is no other way.”

Black Puppy shook its head in disapproval, “I thought you were able to devour the sky and the earth? You could devour the world, yet you are afraid of these black hell ants?”

Sky-Devouring Snake shook its head again. “I’m not afraid of them. It’s just that I am still not strong enough. I can easily swallow a couple of them, but if I were to swallow all of them, I have no way to refine all of their energy. In the end, I’d just die from eating too much.”

Black Puppy nodded in understanding. It too, was not afraid of the black hell ants. It would have been easy for it to take out a couple, but when there were thousands of them, and even Black Puppy was a little creeped out.

In fact, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake were both godly beasts of Earth. One was the ancestor of all dogs, the other of snakes.

They could have gotten pass the ants fine, but not Flower Fairy and the Wolf Fang Team. In order to protect their friends, they decided to stay behind to think of a solution together.

At this time, a short-haired self-cultivator stepped forward. He was a powerful Spirit King Realm master who had already achieved the Ninth Level. He was not willing to be trapped here when he was only steps away from achieving the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm.

The short-haired self-cultivator swung the long sword in his hand, and with great power, he bolted forward.

A black hell ant jumped up from the ground with its ferocious mouth wide open, trying to bite down at the short-haired self-cultivator.

The short-haired self-cultivator let out a cold laugh and swung his long sword. A flash of sharp sword energy was emitted and directly cut that black hell ant in half. As its dead body fell to the ground, it was immediately devoured by the other black hell ants.

These black hell ants were wicked and evil. They not only preyed on self-cultivators and demonic beasts but also on the corpses of their own kind.

After the short-haired self-cultivator killed off one black hell ant, his confidence grew greatly. He continued dashing forward.

At this moment, hundreds and thousands of black hell ants jumped up at the same time and had surrounded him from all directions.

The short-haired self-cultivator’s face turned grim. He swung the sword in hand and frantically struck forward, killing off one black hell ant, then two, three, ten…

If it was not for the soul of the Fire Dragon, it would have been very difficult for Qingfeng Li to escape from the second floor of hell as well as these demonic beasts.

Qingfeng Li concentrated on his mind, and his spirit energy came into the interspatial ring. He saw the Saint Perishing Fruit inside and happiness filled his eyes. His bad mood from getting injured also lightened.

“Ruyan, my baby, wait for me, I already got the Saint Perishing Fruit, and I am going back to Huaxia to save you soon,” Qingfeng Li said to himself, and a soft look appeared in his eyes.

Chapter 1347: The Arrival of Qingfeng Li

 

When the short-haired self-cultivator killed off the hundredth black hell ant, his strength and vital essence had depleted quite a bit. As a result, his speed had decreased.

Right at this moment, the two black hell ants behind the short-haired self-cultivator suddenly bit and punctured his leg. The bites left two holes on his leg, and blood started gushing out from them.

The short-hair self-cultivator let out a loud painful groan.

The teeth of the black hell ants were sharp as daggers. They stabbed into the flesh of the short-haired self-cultivator and tore off a piece of flesh from his leg. In an instant, the two black ants had swallowed the flesh of the self-cultivator.

The short-haired self-cultivator’s face was distorted by rage. He abruptly turned around and struck out his sword, killing off the black ants behind his back.

However, the short-haired self-cultivator forgot that he was completely surrounded by the black hell ants in all possible directions.

While he turned around to take care of the two ants behind him, those that were in front of him rushed forward and jumped at him together. They had taken hold of every inch of his body and enclosed him completely.

The black hell ants started biting into the body of the short-haired self-cultivator relentlessly.

The short-haired self-cultivator gave out a agonized shriek as he repeatedly swung the sword in his hand. He wanted to kill off the black hell ants, but there were simply too many of them.

Within moments, a once strong self-cultivator had become a pile of white bones. His flesh and blood had been devoured by the black hell ants.

As they saw this, all the other self-cultivators were horrified and began to step back. They looked as though they had just witnessed the most horrifying thing in the world.

Obviously, Flower Fairy, Xianzhi Qin, Fengwu Cao, and Ziyue Jiang were all women, and as women, they feared two things the most – snakes and ants. The fact that these ants were carnivores and cannibals made them even more terrifying.

Due to fear, Flower Fairy’s face had turned pale, and her body was trembling.

The short-haired self-cultivator that just met his fate was actually stronger than the women were. If he was no match for the black hell ants, then the women would not stand a chance against the ants either. In fact, they would probably die an even more terrible death.

Flower Fairy looked to Black Puppy and asked, “What do we do now?”

Black Puppy frowned and responded in slight annoyance, “Stop nagging me. If it weren’t for protecting you guys, Sky-Devouring Snake and I would have made it to the other side already.”

Flower Fairy was irked by Black Puppy’s words. But knowing that Black Puppy was telling the truth and that it was more powerful than she was, she held her tongue.

At this moment, a calm voice was heard, “Puppy, are you looking to be beat up? How dare you use that tone with Flower Fairy?”

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Flower Fairy’s face lit up. She quickly turned around and saw that Qingfeng Li was running towards them at an extremely fast speed. A moment ago, he was still a few hundred meters away, and now, he was already right in front of her.

“Big Brother Li, it is really you! Are you alright? The Taotie didn’t kill you?” Flower Fairy asked.

Qingfeng Li answered with a laugh, “Taotie couldn’t kill me. I am invincible. Sister Fairy, you have grown even more beautiful in just a few days.”

Qingfeng Li’s flirtatious words brought a shade of red onto Flower Fairy’s face. She became shy.

The members of the Wolf Fang Team smiled. They knew that the more dangerous and intense the situation, the more their leader – Qingfeng Li would like to joke around. His jokes could help others relax and forget about the danger they were facing.

Seeing Qingfeng Li, Black Puppy nodded its head awkwardly. It knew that Flower Fairy was one of Qingfeng Li’s soulmates, or should it say, she was kind of Qingfeng Li’s woman, too. Hence, scolding Flower Fairy would be like insulting Qingfeng Li.

Black Puppy walked over to Qingfeng Li, wagging its tail, “See how well I protected your women and friends? None of them are hurt even a tiny bit. I am only open to accepting rewards, not criticism, pkay?”

Watching as Black Puppy pleased Qingfeng Li, Sky-Devouring Snake shot a disdainful glance at it and said, “Puppy, you were scolding Qingfeng Li’s woman just moments ago. We all heard it. So quit kissing up to him, it’s too late.”

“Damn you darned snake! How dare you undermine my work like that? You want to get beat up, huh?” Black Puppy reached out his paw and smacked the head of Sky-Devouring Snake, leaving a big bump on it.

Sky-Devouring Snake gave out a shriek as he caressed the big bump on its head. It felt the pain coming through.

“You damn dog, how dare you hit me? Prepare to die!” Sky-Devouring Snake began wagging its tail, whipping up an explosion in the air. The explosion turned into a flash of black projections, shooting towards Black Puppy’s body.

The snake tail whipped onto Black Puppy’s body, taking off with it some dog hair.

Black Puppy certainly did not want to be outdone. It started swinging its paws once again and at the same time channeling the vital essence in its body. The battle became frenzied and heated quickly.

Qingfeng Li was left speechless and shaking his head. The two could not have picked a worse time to fight each other. With all those black hell ants surrounding them, they had a very dire situation to deal with.

“Stop, both of you! If you dare to fight again, I will seriously beat you up individually,” Qingfeng Li threatened Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake.

Qingfeng Li’s threat worked; both Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake stopped. These two were usually very arrogant and did not see eye-to-eye with each other, but when in front of Qingfeng Li, they became well-behaved and obedient.

That was because Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake could feel that Qingfeng Li had become strong beyond words. It would take no effort for him to beat them up. As ancient godly beasts, their hunches had never failed them.

“Big Brother Li, look! The black hell ants are coming at us!” Flower Fairy exclaimed as she pointed with her finger at the black hell ants in front of her.

The few thousands of black hell ants had been motionless initially, but now they started crawling towards the self-cultivators on the other side.

Besides the Wolf Fang Team, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, Flower Fairy and the others, there were also a few thousand self-cultivators standing along Qingfeng Li. These self-cultivators were all masters of the Heavenly Spirit Realm and Spirit King Realm.

Seeing that the black hell ants were aiming for them, the self-cultivators were terrified and scurried backward. Some of them had pale white faces, and some even let out screeches.

Among them, some of the smart ones hurriedly took cover behind Qingfeng Li’s back.

They knew that Qingfeng Li was the strongest among them. Because they had seen with their own eyes the battles Qingfeng Li had with Jianghuang Zhao, Binghuang Dao, and Yihuang Shou, and Qingfeng Li was not in any way outdone by any of them. He was definitely a supreme master.

Moreover, some of the self-cultivators saw that Qingfeng Li had been consumed by the Taotie; yet, Qingfeng Li was now standing right in front of them, alive and well.

What it meant was that even the Taotie could not kill off Qingfeng Li. He was undefeatable and a one-in-a-billion master.

Chapter 1348: Exterminating the Hellish Black Ants

 

Seeing that the groups of self-cultivators were cowering behind Qingfeng Li, Black Puppy was irritated, “Get away from us! What are you all doing hiding behind our backs?”

Among them, a yellow-haired self-cultivator spoke up with a frown, “Please help us. You guys are strong. If we took them on, all that would remain of us will be a pile of bones.”

Black Puppy reached out its paw to send the yellow-haired self-cultivator flying with a smack and said, “Why would we want to save you? Be self-reliant and save yourselves! Those black hell ants are incredibly strong, you’d better get the hell out of here fast!”

Black Puppy looked down on self-cultivators who were gluttonous, lazy, and not willing to put in the hard work to become stronger. These self-cultivators did not show up to help when Qingfeng Li was in danger, so it was only natural that Black Puppy did not want to help them either.

Black Puppy’s ferociousness had scared the other self-cultivators. Some of them even started crying.

The self-cultivators knew that without Qingfeng Li and Black Puppy’s protection, it was certain that they would be killed by the black hell ants.

Death was a terrifying thing. Some of these gutless self-cultivators were so afraid of dying and being eaten by black hell ants that they actually started crying. Qingfeng Li watched in disdainful silence.

The world of self-cultivators had always favored the fittest. That was the law. If one was weak and had made the choice to come to such place, it was only natural for one to get killed.

A short-haired female self-cultivator walked forward and asked, “Qingfeng Li, do you remember me? We know each other. Can you please help us out?”

Looking closely at this female self-cultivator and recalling carefully, Qingfeng Li finally remembered.

When fighting for the flower of hell on the second level of hell, Qingfeng Li had rescued this female self-cultivator once and had helped her out multiple times. Also, he heard this female self-cultivator say that she secretly admired and idolized him.

Qingfeng Li was definitely willing to save a fan of his own. That was simply a proper way for an idol to act.

“What is your name?” Qingfeng Li smiled faintly as he asked the short-haired female self-cultivator.

A shade of scarlet appeared on the pretty face of the short-haired self-cultivator. She seemed a little shy and embarrassed.

This was the first time she was standing so close to her idol, and his question made her heart start beating rapidly. Indeed, her heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out from her chest.

“My name is Lili. Thank you very much for saving me last time. Can you help us out one more time? We are no match for the black hell ants.” The short-haired female self-cultivator asked longingly. She was eagerly hoping that Qingfeng Li would agree to it.

The other self-cultivators all looked to Qingfeng Li, waiting for his response.

They all knew that if Qingfeng Li agreed, then their lives would be spared; and if he disagreed, then they would become a pile of white bones scattered in hell after they had been killed by the black hell ants.

At this time, Black Puppy walked over and reminded Qingfeng Li, “There are so many that we have to protect already, the Wolf Fang Team, Flower Fairy, Xianzhi Qin, etc. If we also have to protect those self-cultivators, we will get distracted as we will waste a lot of our vital essence.”

Qingfeng Li gave Black Puppy a glance. He knew that Black Puppy was right. These black hell ants were immensely powerful, and it would take a lot of effort for him to take them out. Along with a bunch of people they already had to protect, their hands were pretty tied.

However, Qingfeng Li could not bring himself to reject the short-haired female self-cultivator. She was obviously a fan of his, and he did not want to disappoint his admirers or to let them get hurt .

Qingfeng Li thought of the ancient era. Back then, it was because the self-cultivators on Earth were divided and uncoordinated that the self-cultivators from other planets were able to intrude and take many, many lives on Earth.

It was a devastating disaster for Earth. Countless saints, immortals and self-cultivators were slaughtered, even the lives of children were not spared. It was a tragic past that everyone on Earth should remember.

A hint of pain appeared in Qingfeng Li’s eyes. He knew that he could not let history repeat itself. All of these self-cultivators before him were from Earth, just like him, and they were the last self-cultivators of Earth. Qingfeng Li decided to save them.

With determination in his eyes, Qingfeng Li said, “Don’t worry, Lili. I will save you all.”

Upon hearing Qingfeng Li’s words, Lili’s pretty face turned red with excitement and joy. She was looking at Qingfeng Li as if she was looking at the greatest hero in the world.

Likewise, the other self-cultivators were looking to Qingfeng Li with respect.

Before, they feared Qingfeng Li because they thought he was a devil as he had even slaughtered those from Sword-Emperor Sect. But now they were discovering the good in him.

Qingfeng Li stood up for them now that they were in danger and had prepared to fight the ferocious black hell ants in order to save their lives.

A swarm of the black hell ants were already right in front of them. It looked like there was a frightening tide of at least ten thousand of them.

A dark and cold aura was being exuded from the black hell ants. It was a powerful, bloodthirsty, callous and emotionless aura.

Qingfeng Li knew that there was no time to waste. He must exterminate these black hell ants as soon as possible and get everyone out of here.

Moreover, the Taotie and the Qiongqi were still battling where Qingfeng Li left them. If they realized that Qingfeng Li had escaped and started coming after him again, there would be no way to leave this place then.

“Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, don’t hold back and fight them with full force now.” Qingfeng Li said to Black Puppy and the others.

Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake nodded in response. They knew that it was no time to slack off. Now that Qingfeng Li had decided to save everyone there, the only way out for all of them was to take out all the black hell ants with full force.

With a flip of his wrist, Qingfeng Li took out the Fire Emperor Sword. It was an emperor level sword that could emit flames, containing enormous power.

“Fire Mountain.” Qingfeng Li shouted aloud as he used the first sword of the Fire Emperor Sword technique at once.

The great fire elemental vital essence combined with the talisman scripture battle array and became a humongous fire mountain. The mountain was a few thousand meters tall. With unconquerable power, it ruthlessly dashed towards the black hell ants.

Freh, Freh, Freh!

The black hell ants were surprisingly intelligent. Sensing the powerfulness of the fire mountain that was in the air, they began scattering away to the sides.

Even though these black hell ants had intelligence and tried to flee, the fire mountain was at its full speed and crashed onto the ground in no time.

The scorching temperature of the flames was as high as lava, burning the bodies of the ants to coals and causing crackling sounds and a pungent smell.

With that first sword strike, Qingfeng Li had killed off more than three hundred black hell ants. It provided everyone around him a confidence boost.

Chapter 1349: The Ant-Exterminating Trio

 

“Qingfeng Li is so strong! He is absolutely my idol! Killing off three hundred black hell ants with just one sword technique, he’s so much more powerful than that short-haired self-cultivator from earlier.”

“Of course. Qingfeng Li is comparable to Jianhuang Zhao, Binghuang Dao, and Yihuang Shou. He is the best in the world of self-cultivation!”

“I swear, if I can make it out this time, Qingfeng Li will be my idol for life. I will even bow to him and become his disciple.”

The self-cultivators started chattering among themselves and looked to Qingfeng Li with admiration and great respect.

Qingfeng Li had great hearing and sharp senses and therefore, he did not miss a word from the crowd.

Qingfeng Li let out a sigh. He was surprised that he held such a high place in the hearts of some of those self-cultivators, and he did not expect that many of them would idolize him.

Qingfeng Li knew that if he could get all of those self-cultivators out of here, his place in the world of self-cultivation would advance greatly, and it might even get him to the top of the ladder. Besides, his fame would surpass even those sect masters of the emperor level sects.

Qingfeng Li continued forward until he arrived in front of the black hell ants.

“Blazing River.” As Qingfeng Li subtly flipped the wrist of his right hand, the fire elemental vital essence started running in his body. He had deployed the second sword of the Fire Emperor Sword techniques.

Qingfeng Li had killed off three hundred black hell ants with just his first skill, and he believed that with the second skill, he would be able to take down even more.

Qingfeng Li struck forcefully with the Fire Emperor Sword in his hand, and a churning blazing river was formed. It all was made up of vital essence fire.

There was sizzling lava rumbling in the river, burning up the air in the second level of hell and generating loud crackling sounds.

Horror filled the eyes of those black hell ants on the ground.

The black hell ants were ferocious beasts of hell. In spite of being ferocious and having eaten many self-cultivators and demonic beasts, they were terribly afraid of fire and lightning.

They particularly feared the flames sent forth by Qingfeng Li. Those flames had a high temperature within the thousands of degrees. As soon as they came into contact with the flames, they would turn into ashes instantly. There was no way for them to survive those flames.

The black ants started fleeing frantically in all directions. They wanted to get far away from the flames that were in the air, but this time, there was no safe place for them to run to.

The Blazing River that Qingfeng Li deployed was as long as four thousand meters. It was determined to enshroud all the black hell ants at once.

It started pouring down from the sky, and the flames rained down right onto the black hell ants. Their bodies produced a series of crackling sounds as they were being burned up. In the end, there was only a pile of ashes left with smoke rising out of it.

This time, Qingfeng Li killed off even more black hell ants. He killed off a thousand of them, three times more than he did with the first skill.

Behind Qingfeng Li, the self-cultivators started raising their arms and exclaiming in excitement.

Many of the self-cultivators in the group died horrible deaths fighting the black hell ants a while ago. Hence, the rest were extremely scared, knowing that they were no match for these beasts.

However, when put against Qingfeng Li, these ants seemed weak and feeble. Any attack from Qingfeng Li was capable of taking out hundreds and thousands of them. It was marvelous!

Qingfeng struck his sword twice more, and a tenth of the black hell ants were gone eliminated, but there was still a lot more.

Standing next to Qingfeng Li, Black Puppy reached out its right paw, as it conjured out a humongous dog paw, blocked out the sky and above.

Black Puppy did not hold back at all. It was emitting vital essence in all directions and squashing the black hell ants with its paw. The squashing caused the bodies of the black hell ants to explode into tiny pieces and disappear into specks of dust.

When Sky-Devouring Snake saw that Black Puppy took out so many black hell ants with its great power, it decided that it would not be outdone.

Wagging its tail, Sky-Devouring Snake formed a massive snake projection that was thousands of meters long and was purely composed of vital essence. One whip towards the ground, and it had turned more than a hundred black hell ants into minced meat pies instantly.

“This Ant-Exterminating Trio is incredible!” Their mouths twitching, the self-cultivators were watching in great shock from behind. They named the three the Ant-Exterminating Trio.

They could accept and acknowledge Qingfeng Li’s power, as he was obviously a one-in-a-billion master after all.

But seeing that the demonic beasts by Qingfeng Li’s side – a dog and a snake were just as immensely powerful, and even more so than their group of self-cultivators, they felt ashamed.

“Such shame! A dog is even more useful than I am…” One of the male self-cultivators exclaimed, in awe at Black Puppy’s power.

The self-cultivator next to him gave him a glance and said, “Well, that is not anybody’s dog, that is Qingfeng Li’s! He is not even afraid of Jianhuang Zhao, Binghuang Dao, and Yihuang Shou. Certainly, his dog would be powerful as well.”

Listening to the conversation of the two self-cultivators, Lili seemed speechless. She had no clue why the two would be talking about the dog and not that someone else.

Lili had her eyes locked onto Qingfeng Li. Her eyes were filled with a golden shine and emitting golden sparkles. She was worshiping Qingfeng Li with her eyes.

Black Puppy shot Sky-Devouring Snake a glance and suggested, “Hey snob, you want to bet and see who kills the most black hell ants?”

Sky-Devouring Snake gave out a contemptuous laugh. Wagging its tail, it answered, “Sure, you’re no threat to me, cocky little pup.”

Knowing that they could count on Qingfeng Li to keep the situation under control, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake had grown bold. Now that they did not need to worry about the safety of the Wolf Fang Team and the others, they started launching all the attacks they knew onto the black hell ants before them.

The black hell ants were no match for these two. One by one, their bodies were being crushed to pieces, and they eventually were decimated on this second level of hell.

The black hell ants were unbeatable just moments ago, but now they had become defenseless against Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake. They could only feebly await their deaths.

As for Qingfeng Li, his attacks were even more brutal. Every time his sword was struck, hundreds of black hell ants would be wiped out helplessly.

Within moments, more than half of those ten thousand black hell ants before him had been killed, only about three thousand of them were left dwindling.

At this time, far at the back of the black hell ant army, a red-black hell ant had appeared.

Regular black hell ants were jet black, just like the color of hell. But now that there was a red one appearing among them, it seemed odd and out of place.

The red black hell ant was colossal. It was a meter long and three times the size of the regular black hell ants.

This red ant was actually walking on two legs like a human. Its facial expression was also human-like and was full of intelligence.

The red ant glared at Black Puppy coldly. Its eyes were filled with ferociousness, bloodthirst, eagerness to kill, and callousness.

Chapter 1350: The Ant Emperor

 

“You dog bastard, how dare you kill my underlings! Prepare to die!” The red-black hell ant shot Black Puppy an icy cold look with a threat.

Black Puppy’s face grew cold when it heard the red ant’s insult. It responded disdainfully, “You are delusional if you think you can kill me. Come and try, I will crush you to death with a smack.”

Promptly, Sky-Devouring Snake warned Blacked Puppy, “Puppy, don’t underestimate this red-haired guy, it is the emperor of the black hell ants. Its power is at least comparable to the Spirit Emperor Realm. Don’t set us back with your carelessness.”

Curling its lip, Black Puppy responded contemptuously, “Quit nagging, you snob. When have I ever feared anyone?”

Sky-Devouring Snake wagged its tail as it was unconvinced. Black Puppy said that it feared no one, but it obviously feared Qingfeng Li every time it saw him.

The red ant’s presence was emitting a powerful aura. The thousands of black hell ants behind its back were all worshipping it with their eyes filled with respect.

At this time, Qingfeng Li stepped forward with Fire Emperor Sword in his hands. Right when he was about to start launching attacks, Black Puppy stopped him, “Wait, Qingfeng Li! Let me deal with this guy.”

Qingfeng Li frowned, “Are you sure about this? I can tell that the Ant Emperor has reached the Spirit Emperor Realm, and you are only at the half-step Spirit Emperor Realm.”

Seeing that Qingfeng Li did not trust its ability to win this battle, displeasure was written all over Black Puppy’s face. It wagged its tail and declared loudly, “How could you not trust my abilities? It would be a piece of cake for me to finish off an ant emperor.”

Qingfeng Li replied coolly, “You are the ancestor of all dogs, I know that you can defeat an ant emperor. The problem is the Taotie and Qiongqi will come after us soon, so we have to get out of here as soon as possible. Will you be able to finish off the Ant Emperor within three attacks?”

Three attacks!

After hearing Qingfeng Li’s explanation and challenge, Black Puppy began contemplating. A moment later, its eyes stopped rolling and said, “Yes, I promise I will defeat the Ant Emperor within three attacks.”

On the other end, the Ant Emperor heard their conversation and anger started emerging in its eyes.

The Ant Emperor was a notoriously ferocious beast on the second level of hell. Moreover, it was the commander of this army of hundreds of thousands of black hell ants – it was the Ant Emperor.

Yet, now it was being taken lightly by a human being and a dog. More insultingly, Black Puppy claimed to be capable of defeating it in three attacks or fewer. The Ant Emperor was furious.

“You dog bastard, I have always traversed through and ruled the second level of hell, how dare you say that you could defeat me? You’re definitely asking for a horrible death.” The Ant Emperor remarked callously as it glared at Black Puppy.

At once, the Ant Emperor started walking forward. When it walked by a massive boulder, it extended out an arm and held up the boulder that was hundreds of meters wide, ever so effortlessly.

That boulder was at least a few hundred thousand pounds and was many times heavier than the weight of the Ant Emperor. Yet, it took it up effortless.

After waving the massive boulder in its hand, the Ant Emperor forcefully threw it at Black Puppy’s direction.

The massive boulder of hell carried great momentum. A giant hole appeared in the air where the boulder had touched, and out came a black whirlpool and howling sounds of wind.

Ants were known for their immense strengths.

During the ancient era, some ant saints could even lift up a planet with one single hand. Their strengths shocked the entire universe, and ants had been seen as the ambassadors of strength since then. However, the ants on the second level of hell were only descendants of the ancient ant saints and had incomplete and inadequate evolutions.

Even so, the strengths of these hellish ants were incredible.

Black Puppy was startled by the massive boulder that was flying towards it and said, “This guy has such a small body, yet it was able to lift up weights of a few hundred thousand pounds. It is no doubt a descendant of the God of strength. Too bad, it was me that you ran into today!”

Black Puppy then put out its paw and turned it into Heavenly Giant Paw. With one smack, the massive black boulder was shattered into countless pieces.

To everyone’s surprise, there was actually a poisonous spike hidden inside the massive boulder. The poisonous spike was as small as the tip of a needle, and it was traveling at a great speed. Before Black Puppy could realize, the spike had stabbed straight through its paw, and had caused blood to start streaming down.

Black Puppy uttered a painful groan as it frowned.

It did not expect such an underhanded attack from the Ant Emperor. Without much thought, Black Puppy fell for the attack and was injured by the hidden weapon that was disguised by the massive boulder.

The scene caused a big laugh from Sky-Devouring Snake, “Puppy, did I not just warn you about being careful? Didn’t think of being fooled and deceived, did you?”

Sky-Devouring Snake’s taunting words angered Black Puppy even more – now even its hair stood up.

Black Puppy had dominated the world back on the ancient continent and had killed countless enemies. It was invincible.

Even now, besides Qingfeng Li, no one could come close to how powerful it was. The fact that it was injured by an ant on the second level of hell made it feel embarrassed and ashamed.

“Damn you red b*stard, I didn’t think you were so despicable. You look like a human, but apparently do not have the dignity that comes with being a human. How pitiful of you to use secret weapons?”

The Ant Emperor laughed aloud and said disdainfully, “Bastard dog, didn’t you say you were going to defeat me in three strikes? Now with one attack from me, you were already injured. It looks like all your strength lies in your ability to boast.”

“You red piece of trash, you have utterly pissed me off. You will die after experiencing my fierceness today.” Black Puppy’s eyes had grown icy cold. It was completely enraged.

It had never been as furious. Black Puppy opened its mouth and shot out a flash of black light.

The black light was extremely powerful. The moment it appeared, it had pierced right through the air and torn up the firmament. In an instant, it had arrived before the Ant Emperor.

The Ant Emperor was astounded. It did not expect the black light to be so strong. Still, the Ant Emperor did not pay too much mind to it, as it was not only strong offensively but also defensively.

The Ant Emperor started summoning the hellish vital essence in its body. Its black vital essence had turned into a defensive light veil, attempting to block the black light.

Booom!

The black light crashed directly onto the defensive light veil and pierced right through, leaving a big black hole on the defensive light veil.

The Ant Emperor jumped in surprise. It did not expect the black light to be so powerful that there was no way it could defend itself.

In this time of great danger, the Ant Emperor started frantically waving its palm, trying to block the black light. However, the black light had the capability of piercing through everything. In an instant, it had pierced through the palm of the Ant Emperor and left a hole with black blood gushing out. The blood had colored the ground dark red.

The Ant Emperor gave out a shrieking cry. Its palm was pierced through and pain started spreading throughout its body. Moreover, the black light had devouring power – it was actually devouring the vital essence inside the body of the Ant Emperor.

The Ant Emperor’s face had turned pale as it realized that it could not rid its body of the black light. The black light seemed to have latched tightly within its meridians.

Chapter 1351: Black Puppy’s Breakthrough

 

“Master Doggy hasn’t shown its strength yet, and you’re already looking at me like I’m a weak cat?” Black Puppy stretched out his finger, pointing at the Ant Emperor while looking arrogant.

Just now, Black Puppy used its super power for revenge. That was the super power of a godly beast which contained the power of the Heavenly Dao and was able to puncture through everything in the world. The defensive light veil of the Ant Emperor was definitely not a threat.

The Ant Emperor fought through the pain in its hand and said with a cold voice, “Little b*tch dog, I will tear you into pieces and cook your meat.”

The Ant Emperor used its back foot to launch itself into the sky, and threw another boulder straight at Black Puppy once it was a thousand meters in the air.

Black Puppy was angry because of the stone but didn’t care about that at all. Its two feet stepped on the ground and launched itself up to fight with the Ant Emperor.

Its two paws transformed into huge phantoms and lashed at the feet of the Ant Emperor, making a loud noise that could directly blow away the sky of the second level of hell. Through the force, a vortex appeared, with a devil climbing out of it.

The devil had came from the third level, but as soon as it appeared, it was squashed by the tremendous power from the two. It made a screech as it became smoke and disappeared.

Deng Deng Deng….

Black Puppy and the Ant Emperor had both taken a dozen steps back before regaining balance. The power of the two was close to the exchange just now.

The Ant Emperor frowned, very dissatisfied. It was the descendant of the God of Strength. In the ancient era, the saint of the Ant Clan was able to lift a planet with a single arm, shocking the universe. But now, in its generation, it couldn’t even beat a dog.

Black Puppy was also unhappy. It was the first dog that ever existed between heaven and earth and now it couldn’t even beat the Ant Emperor. That really lost the face of the dogs.

Black Puppy and the Ant Emperor had very powerful fighting power which spread throughout the second layer of hell. The Taotie and Qiongqi behind also heard the battle and both looked towards this direction.

Qingfeng Li felt the attention of the two peerless beasts and his whole body trembled, trying to hide his scent in fear of being found by the Taotie and Qiongqi.

The Taotie and Qiongqi just glanced and went back to fighting each other again, because they found that the Ant Emperor and the Black Puppy were too weak, not worthy to be their opponent.

Qingfeng Li stretched out his palm, wiping away the sweat on his forehead and saying to Black Puppy, “You used three attacks already. Will you be able to defeat the Ant Emperor within ten strikes or not? If not, I will go.”

Black Puppy shook its tail and said, “Do not worry, within 10 strikes, I will definitely kill it. I am now awakening the memory from my past life.”

Black Puppy was the first dog to exist between heaven and earth and had the power of controlling the passing of time, which allowed it to make people age instantly. But this power caused a huge consumption on body so he seldom used it.

“The years, the power of time, the deprivation of your life.” Black Puppy’s face became dignified, with sacredness in his eyes. In the face of the river of time it read a chant.

A black whirlpool appeared in the river of years and instantly shot on the head of the Ant Emperor.

The Ant Emperor cried and its body began aging with a visible speed.

The black and red skin on the Ant Emperor changed into a white color as if the skin was aging, becoming bleak and finally fragmented, falling onto the ground.

“Life Deprivation Technique? You know how to use the Life Deprivation Technique of the ancient saints?” The Ant Emperor looked at the Black Puppy with a terrified expression, unwilling to die.

The Ant Emperor was not ready to accept its death yet. It had been able to freely roam the second layer of hell for a long time. Except for the Taotie and Qiongqi, no one was its enemy. It was so powerful with millions of black hell ants under its command, but now that its life was being drained, it disappeared from this world.

The black hell ants saw the Ant Emperor dying and uttered a scream, scattered, and fled.

Black Puppy was too powerful, killing the king of ants withj just a few attacks.

“I really can not believe my eyes. To me, it looked like the Ant Emperor died instantly under the hands of the Black Puppy.”

“Qingfeng Li is too powerful. He didn’t even do anything himself and the dog beside him killed the Ant Emperor already. If he tried, he would have killed the Ant Emperor with one stroke.”

The self-cultivators looked at the Black Puppy in front of them and were discussing about it. Their eyes were full of shock.

Of course, these self-cultivators didn’t forget praising Qingfeng Li while they were discussing the Black Puppy, because they clearly saw Black Puppy obey what Qingfeng Li said.

Black Puppy walked towards the Ant Emperor and stretched out its own claws, directly cutting the abdomen of the ant open. From the inside, he took out a red demonic pill.

The normal demonic pills for ants were black, but the red ant in front of them was the emperor of ants. Thus, its demonic pill was red, containing invincible power.

Black Puppy held the red demonic pill in its hands and looked very delighted. It opened its mouth and directly ate the demonic pill.

Black Puppy began channeling its saint-level technique inside its body and started to refine the demonic pill.

It had now awakened a lot of memory from its past lives and mastered the method of refining demonic pills. One of them was a saint level alchemical chant.

Black Puppy followed the technique of the saint level alchemical chant and started to channel the energy through the meridians of its body.

The meridian route of dogs were completely different from the meridians of human self-cultivators.

A black vortex appeared above Black Puppy’s head, containing a powerful devouring force which swallowed the power of the demonic pill completely. Then, it started to run following the meridians of the Black Puppy’s body and tempering its meridians, muscles, and bones.

Black Puppy’s whole body began exuding black and red lights.

The two forces, represented by the two rays of light, were constantly intertwined and finally converged into its bones, mutating and turning into a golden light, forming a golden spiritual nucleus in the bones of its body.

Golden spirit nucleus, the official sign of a breakthrough to the Spirit Emperor Realm.

Black Puppy at this point exuded a powerful force. A golden light shot from its body straight into the sky, causing the hellish black cloud to begin trembling.

After the strength of the Black Puppy broke through to the Spirit Emperor Realm, his combat effectiveness also improved a lot.

Qingfeng Li’s eyes brightened in satisfaction. As the strength of Black Puppy had enhanced, its combat effectiveness would also increase, which would be a huge help to him.

Tremendous danger was hidden in Hell, so the improvement of the strength of Black Puppy would also mean safety for Qingfeng Li and the others.
