Chapter 339: Class 4 Demon

Chapter 339: Class 4 Demon

Translator: jinzeffect

When the few thousand people entered the battlefield, it was like pouring a bowl of water into a jar of water, as it didn’t create too much of a ripple.

With the strength of the demonic beasts and demons, they just had to slightly draw out a little more power to balance the situation of the battle.

As for the final victor, no one would know until they fought to the end.

Fresh blood incessantly spattered. There was blood from humans and demonic beasts, but only the occasional demon blood.

One could notice that in terms of numbers, humans had the most, while demonic beasts only had half the number of humans, and demons were only around 10% of the number of demonic beasts. But this 10% was the strongest existence, and it was almost impossible to see the scene of a demon falling on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, class 3 demons would require multiple peak level Earth Shatter Realm martial artists to go against it. But it was simply going against it, as defeating it would be difficult even if there was more than twice the amount of them there. As for killing it, there wasn’t a need to think about it within the short period of time, unless it was a Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist making the move.

Similarly, a class 4 demon would require multiple peak level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artists to go against it. Defeating it would require twice the amount of people and killing it was impossible in a short period of time.

If it must be described, demons were just like the combination of humans and demonic beasts. Furthermore, it was the combination of the strengths of both races.

Faster and more agile than humans, stronger than demonic beasts’ bodies. Without absolute strength, it was basically impossible to kill demons. Even if a prodigy was to go against a demon, even a prodigy wouldn’t dare say that defeating a demon was a possibility.

In comparison, a demonic beast of the same class and peak-tier was much weaker, but that was just in comparison to demons.

A class 4 peak-tier demonic beast, Nocturne Beast was much more formidable than imagined.

The class 4 peak-tier demonic beast was just like going against a peak level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist.

But in terms of strength, a few peak level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artists were required to go against a class 4 peak-tier demonic beast. But if the coordination was good enough, a few peak level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artists might have the chance to defeat or even kill a class 4 peak-tier demonic beast.

Of the four individuals who worked together with Li Fuchen, two of them were at the 9th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm, while the other two were at the 8th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm, as they were assisted by Li Fuchen who was at the 4th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm.

In normal circumstances, the five of them were unlikely to be a match for the Nocturne Beast.

But Li Fuchen had the strength to kill a class 4 high-tier Blue-Winged Beast effortlessly, otherwise, the four of them wouldn’t have chosen Li Fuchen to work together with them. They would rather have chosen some other martial artist at the 9th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm.

When the five of them worked together, it was impossible for the Nocturne Beast to kill any of them in a short amount of time, even though it was extremely powerful.

But it was also nearly impossible for the five of them to injure the Nocturne Beast.

The Nocturne Beast was extremely fast and had shocking burst strength. As long as one didn’t pay full attention, one might be injured by it. Hence, everyone was mentally tensed up.

“No wonder it is a class 4 peak-tier demonic beast.”

After exchanging a few moves, Li Fuchen roughly understood the strength of the Nocturne Beast.

The Nocturne Beast was one level superior to the wolf-masked man. Li Fuchen reckoned that he might need a few exchanges to severely injure the wolf-masked man, and more than ten exchanges to kill him.

In order to go against the Nocturne Beast alone, one had to be a prodigy at the 7th or 8th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm.

For those prodigies who could reach the 7th or 8th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm, their cultivation technique would be at least at the 18th or 19th rank and they would have comprehended mystic class peak-tier martial arts intent. Furthermore, the intent wouldn’t be at the initial stage. Coupled with the mastery of a 5-star secret technique, it wasn’t a difficult task to kill a class 4 peak-tier demonic beast.

“Essence Breaking Cleave!”

Among the five, was a middle-aged man in yellow clothes who was at the 9th level of the Heaven Dipper Realm. He cleaved at the body of the Nocturne Beast.

This blade’s speed was fast as lightning and if it was regular class 4 high-tier demonic beast that got hit, it would have at least been a severe injury. But when he cleaved at the Nocturne Beast, it barely split open the skin and flesh of the beast, as it was hard to even damage its veins or bones.

“Such powerful defenses.” The yellow-clothed man had on an awful expression.

If even his most powerful attack couldn’t truly damage the Nocturne Beast, how were they going to kill it?”

The long-bearded man who invited Li Fuchen to fight together said, “The Nocturne Beast has extremely tough defenses. Attack its joints and immobilize it.”

Be it humans, demonic beasts, or demons, one’s joints is always a weak spot, unless one was speaking about a lifeform without any joints.

“Courting death.” The Nocturne Beast spoke in the human language while its lush green eyes were filled with cruel expressions.

Like black lightning flashing by, the Nocturne Beast instantly arrived in front of an 8th level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist.

This 8th level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist was an old man wearing a green delicate pelt armor. His weapon of choice was a set of heavy fist gloves, which was brandished immediately, sending countless fist shadows at the Nocturne Beast.

The Nocturne Beast targeted him because he was the weakest.

As countless fist shadows landed on the Nocturne Beast, apart from echoing with muffled sounds, they didn’t really do any true damage. At most, the beast would feel some pain and its blood would boil.

Its razor-sharp claws were like five enlarged sabers and swords banded together, as they all clawed abruptly at the target.

“Not good, I am done for.” The green-armored old man’s eyes were wide opened while filled with fear and reluctance.

Pfff!

All of a sudden, a blinding and blazing sword light flashed across. The Nocturne Beast instantly missed its mark as its forelimb joint had an additional sword mark which was fuming with a blackish green smoke.

The injury on the joint had caused the beast to miss its attack on the green-armored old man.

After escaping with the danger, the green-armored man still had a lingering fear in his heart. He reacted quickly and thanked Li Fuchen, “Many thanks for saving my life.”

The one who made the thrust of the sword was naturally Li Fuchen. At the most crucial moment, he transmuted pure yang dipper qi into black iron sword qi, which greatly boosted his strength before he thrust at the Nocturne Beast’s joint. Of course, he merely pierced the joint and with this strength that he exposed, he was still unable to suppress the Nocturne Beast and was still much inferior to the beast.

But as long as someone was able to restrain the Nocturne Beast, Li Fuchen could deal with the Nocturne Beast as easy as having a meal.

When he was at the Earth Shatter Realm, his awareness was already utilized to the maximum limit.

After progressing to the Heaven Dipper Realm, Li Fuchen’s awareness didn’t change, but his bodily reaction had improved by more than just two folds. This allowed him to effortlessly see through every move of the Nocturne Beast and it was actually no different from looking at something in slow motion.

As its joint was injured, the Nocturne Beast was infuriated. Executing strength from its hindlimbs, the beast leapt and swung its claw at Li Fuchen.

This claw was extremely powerful and there was black demonic qi gathered on its claws. If it hit its target, even a class 4 demon would be injured, which meant that tearing a martial artist below the Reincarnation Realm into shreds was an effortless task.

But the Nocturne Beast wasn’t able to fully execute this claw attack.

Halfway through the clawing motion, Li Fuchen had already stabbed his sword into its left eye.

Suddenly losing its left eye, it had a huge impact on the beast, even causing it to panic.

Thus, this claw withdrew without achieving anything.

“Such quick and precise sword moves.” The long-bearded man was shocked.

“How did he do it?” The yellow-clothed middle-age man was also shocked. Li Fuchen’s sword might be extremely fast, but he didn’t feel that it was fast enough for the Nocturne Beast to miss an opportunity to react. It felt as though the Nocturne Beast delivered itself to Li Fuchen.

Howl!

With one eye blinded, the Nocturne Beast was in a completely frenzied state. Black demonic qi burst out from the body, scraping a layer of the ground, sending the five of them flying due to the shockwave.

As a class 4 peak-tier demonic beast, the Nocturne Beast’s demonic qi was awfully tyrannical. There was no way for Li Fuchen to kill it by himself if he didn’t want to expose his trump cards.

“Go!”

After the Nocturne Beast finished bursting out with its demonic qi, the long-bearded man took the lead and killed his way toward the beast.

Since Li Fuchen was so powerful, they didn’t have any reason to be afraid of the Nocturne Beast.

Bang, Bang, Bang…

In just a few moments, the Nocturne Beast’s demonic qi protection had been shattered. After losing its left eye and getting injured on its forelimb joint, its strength was greatly affected, causing it to be unable to attack accurately. The long-bearded man and the others now had plenty of opportunities to attack.

Pfff!

There was a fatal flash of sword light that blinded the Nocturne Beast’s remaining right eye.

The Nocturne Beast which was now in a panic started to go berserk. It didn’t restrain itself and burst out with all the demonic qi in its body. Wherever there was a movement, it would crash randomly towards there without any rationality.

When dealing with a berserk Nocturne Beast, everyone had a much easier time. Even without Li Fuchen, they could slowly wear down the beast to death.

Things went faster with Li Fuchen around.

Li Fuchen’s sword would always be able to hit the vital part of the Nocturne Beast. After blinding the eyes of the Nocturne Beast, Li Fuchen started to target the joints of the beast.

In just a short moment, all four joints of the Nocturne Beast were injured and it could only maneuver with its demonic qi, but its agility had decreased by several folds, turning itself into a live target.

Taking a deep breath, Li Fuchen’s sword penetrated into the Nocturne Beast’s brain through its right eye socket. The inferno sword qi completely destroyed all forms of life.

“What? They killed a class 4 peak-tier demonic beast so quickly?”

A few miles away, there were some people who were utterly amazed.

Without any class 5 demons and demonic beasts, the class 4 demons and class 4 peak-tier demonic beasts were the main forces. Every death of a single class 4 peak-tier demonic beast would have a slight impact on the situation of the battle. If too many fell, it would cause a turn of the situation.

After all, class 5 demons and demonic beasts also required large numbers of underlings to help them govern the larger regions. If too many of their underlings had perished, they wouldn’t be able to control the human regions after occupying it.

After killing the Nocturne Beast, the long-bearded man and the others had a great boost in confidence. They were preparing to kill another class 4 peak-tier demonic beast.

Soon enough, the five found their next target.

This target was the class 4 peak-tier, Thorn Shell Beast which wasn’t inferior to the Nocturne Beast. Right now, it was fighting against a peak level Heaven Dipper Realm and two 9th level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artists. But it was obvious that the trio couldn’t deal with the Thorn Shell Beast, as the beast was wreaking havoc and they were in grave danger.

15 minutes later, the Thorn Shell Beast had fallen.

With assistance from Li Fuchen, the Thorn Shell beast was blinded and crippled. After turning into a live target, how could it possibly survive the surrounded attacks of the people?

One beast, two beasts…

A few hours later, the group was led by Li Fuchen as they killed class 4 peak-tier demonic beasts one after the other.

“Ahhh!”

Not far away, five of the peak level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artists were sent flying. Immediately after, one of them got torn into two by a part of fierce giant arms, while fresh blood splattered everywhere.

This was a class 4 demon.

It was a king class existence apart from class 5 demons, class 5 demonic beasts, and Reincarnation Realm martial artists.

“Killing one class 4 demon is equivalent to killing ten class 4 peak-tier demonic beasts.” Li Fuchen thought to himself.

With a flash of thought, Li Fuchen started rapidly approaching the class 4 demon.

Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding…

Li Fuchen enveloped this class 4 demon with pale blue-colored skin and two short horns on the head, with dozens of sword slashes.

But the reaction speed of this pale blue-colored demon was too fast. With a brandish of its claws, it neutralized all of Li Fuchen’s sword moves. Not only that, it even sent a claw attack at Li Fuchen which was fast as lightning. Li Fuchen could already feel the terrifying power contained before the claw arrived.

“Sect Origin Swords, condense!”

The pale blue-colored demon was very fast and ferociously powerful, but Li Fuchen’s awareness was even faster.

Before the pale blue-colored demon could do anything, Li Fuchen’s surroundings was already covered with black iron sword qi. A thousand black iron sword qi formed two large black iron swords. One of it slashed at the attacking claw from the pale blue-colored demon, while the other black iron sword slashed at the head of the demon.
