Chapter 3688 - 3689 Hand over Demonia Stone, or face death
The giant, clutching a scepter, donned a crown of purple and gold. His face was extremely fierce, resembling a great demon lord. Upon witnessing this scene, Stanlee couldn’t help but exclaim in shock, “Demon Summoning!”
“Master, what is Demon Summoning?” Tessa asked curiously. Stanlee explained, “This is the ultimate skill of Demonia Sect. Demonia Sect has always resided on Demonia Mountain. Their ability to survive in the depths of Demonia Mountain for thousands of years is all thanks to Demon Summoning. Legend has it that the demon lord manifested from Demon Summoning is not only the protector of Demonia Sect but also the very demon lord that Demonia Mountain suppressed. It is due to this demon lord’s protection that Demonia Sect is able to survive for thousands of years. The moment Mr. Zhang made his move, he used his best technique. It seems he knows that his opponent isn’t easy to handle…”
Upon hearing this, Fitz couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly. There is no way this great demon lord could possibly be the one suppressed by Demonia Mountain, let alone the guardian of Demonia Sect! The demon lord that has been suppressed beneath Demonia Mountain is indeed Vermilion Demon Lord from John’s memories. However, such a legend was likely circulated by Demonia Sect themselves, probably just an attempt to boost their own reputation.
“Brat, you’ve killed an elder from Demonia Sect, and now you’re after Demonia Stone. You’re absolutely despicable. Today, let Demonia Sect’s guardian demon take your life!”
After Nolan finished speaking, the towering demon behind him leaped into action. With a forceful swing, he aimed his mighty scepter directly at Tyler. With a body spanning several meters, Tyler felt as insignificant as an ant in front of the demon. However, facing the demon, Tyler surprisingly broke into a smile.
“What kind of guardian is this? It’s nothing more than a deceptive trick. Is this how your sect manages to survive? By relying on such tricks?”
With a cold chuckle, Tyler vanished in an instant, only to reappear suspended in mid-air! Tyler, with his frail figure, stood up to the giant demon, his eyes exuding an unmistakable disdain. Immediately following, a cloud of black mist materialized in Tyler’s hand. From within the mist, a series of chilling screams resounded.
Tyler casually tossed the cluster of black mist, which instantly transformed into a malicious spirit. The malicious spirit moved like a shooting star, heading straight for the giant demon’s chest.
Swoosh! In just a fleeting moment, the demon’s scepter remained suspended in mid-air, but the malicious spirit had already pierced his body. After a brief pause, a sudden roar erupted from the demon’s mouth. Following that, the massive figure expressed its gratitude with a thunderous voice and promptly vanished into thin air.
Tyler had returned to the ground, silently observing Nolan. At that moment, blood trickled from the corner of Nolan’s mouth. He had never imagined that his ultimate skill would fail to withstand even a single move from Tyler. At this moment, Tyler’s heart was swelling with immense emotion.
“Hand over Demonia Stone, and I might spare your lives. Otherwise, I’ll level Demonia Mountain to the ground…” Had he known that Demonia Sect only had this much to offer, he would have asserted his dominance from the very beginning, seizing what he wanted directly. There would have been no need to obtain any cultivation technique secret scrolls.
“You….” Nolan was about to refuse, but suddenly, Tyler’s figure appeared before his eyes. Tyler was seen with a firm grip on Nolan’s neck. His eyes radiated a ruthless glare.
“Hand over Demonia Stone, or face death. The choice is yours…” he threatened. Nolan could feel the intimidating aura emanating from Tyler, causing his body to tremble involuntarily. He was certain that if he dared to utter even a single word of dissent at that moment, Tyler would not hesitate to kill him on the spot. After a moment of hesitation, Nolan let out a sigh.
“Go fetch Demonia Stone…” he commanded. After Nolan gave his command, Demonia Stone was swiftly brought forth. A smile spread across Tyler’s face when he saw Demonia Stone. Without hesitation, he pocketed Demonia Stone. After letting go of Nolan, Tyler immediately turned and walked away. Before he could fully recover his physical strength, Tyler didn’t want to make too many enemies. So, once he obtained Demonia Stone, he genuinely decided to let Demonia Sect off the hook.
Upon seeing Tyler take away the sole Demonia Stone of Demonia Sect, Stanlee and Fitz were all plagued by anxiety. However, no one dared to intervene.
After all, their capabilities were simply not enough to stop Tyler
“John, once I regain my physical body, I will come find you again…” Tyler cast a glance at the cave, and in an instant, he was nowhere to be seen. He wasn’t going to wait around for John to emerge, and then follow him into a life-or-death situation. He wasn’t that foolish. Tyler’s sole objective was to acquire Demonia Stone. Since he had it in his possession, nothing else mattered.
As for dealing with John, there would be plenty of time once his physical body was restored. Tyler, that guy, was incredibly clever. It was precisely because of this that he constantly caused significant difficulties for John.
After Tyler left, Nolan couldn’t help but let out a helpless sigh. He didn’t concern himself with John in the cave. Instead, he left with the disciples of Demonia Sect. He knew there was no way John could retrieve the cultivation technique secret scrolls. Moreover, since the sole Demonia Stone was gone, Demonia Sect couldn’t use anything as a reward in the future to entice people to retrieve the cultivation technique secret scrolls.
Before long, Stanlee and his companions were left anxiously waiting for John in front of the cave. However, the wait turned out to be an entire day and night.
“Master, it’s been quite a while, and Mr. White still hasn’t emerged. Could something have happened to him inside?” Tessa expressed her worries with great concern. Stanlee furrowed his brows, uncertain about John’s actual condition.
“I need to go find Mr. White…” Fitz couldn’t wait any longer. He had to go find John. Regardless of whether John was dead or alive, he needed to see for himself.
“Fitz, you can’t go! With your current abilities, going in there would be a suicide mission!” Tessa blocked Fitz’s path.
Seeing the situation, Trent quickly intervened by saying, “Tessa, he wants to go in and take a look. Let him. If it gets dangerous, he can quickly get out. Besides, Mr. Zhang said that the only risk is being forcibly ejected by the restraint. There’s no threat to his life.”
Trent wished for Fitz to enter. In fact, Trent wanted Fitz to die there. Tessa glanced at Trent, roaring, “Why don’t you go in and take a look, then?”
Trent was at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond. Just then, the world seemed to shift, as a massive swarm of dark clouds surged in from the distance. This sudden turn of events had taken Stanlee and everyone else completely by surprise.
At that moment, they thought some expert had arrived. However, it was only when these ominous clouds had gathered overhead that Stanlee realized they were lightning tribulation clouds. Lightning tribulation clouds had completely enveloped the entire Demonia Sect, and within them, one could clearly see streaks of lightning continuously flashing across.
Stanlee gazed at the ominously dark lightning tribulation clouds, a question forming amidst his confusion. “Who from Demonia Sect is on the verge of a breakthrough? Could it possibly be Mr. Zhang
The higher the cultivation level, the more powerful the lightning tribulation clouds would become, making the lightning tribulation itself more formidable. Judging by the lightning tribulation clouds, it seemed as though a Tribulator was attempting a breakthrough.
Meanwhile, within the grand hall of Demonia Sect, Nolan was drowning his sorrows in alcohol. Their sole Demonia Stone had been stolen, and he feared his sect might not survive in the future. Suddenly, a disciple from Demonia Sect rushed over and said to Nolan, “Mr. Zhang, someone is breaking through. Numerous lightning tribulation clouds are drifting in the sky…”
“Who is breaking through?” Nolan was taken aback for a moment, then hastily rushed out to investigate. After all, he was the sect leader. He would be aware of anyone in Demonia Sect making a breakthrough, but he hadn’t noticed any of his disciples on the verge of such a breakthrough.
Staring at the boundless, ominous lightning tribulation clouds in the sky, Nolan was utterly bewildered. I don’t get it. Who from Demonia Sect is attempting to break through? Moreover, judging by the scale of the lightning tribulation clouds, it seems likely that a Tribulator is making a breakthrough!
All the disciples of Demonia Sect had rushed out, staring at the sky in disbelief. At that moment, the entire Demonia Sect was shrouded in an unparalleled darkness. Within the lightning tribulation clouds, countless bolts of lightning darted about, seemingly gathering strength, as if waiting for the impending lightning tribulation to arrive.
Boom! Suddenly, a deafening sound echoed from the horizon, followed by countless flashes of lightning converging within the lightning tribulation clouds.
