Chapter 622 - 478: Fusion
As Qi Ping drew closer and closer to the direction in which those Holy Demons were moving, the unease in his heart grew ever stronger.
"What on earth are they doing?"
Though there was a trace of worry in Qi Ping’s heart, what filled him more was resolve and killing intent. No matter what, he could not retreat. If he did, the odds of winning this war would become vanishingly small...
Fortunately, something that delighted Qi Ping happened!
One after another, pitch-black tendrils suddenly shot up to the heavens from Qi Ping’s hand!
The Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber in Qi Ping’s hand vanished along with them, turning into those near-hundreds, even thousands, of chilling tendrils...
When those tendrils rushed into the sky, waves of terrifying suction suddenly erupted. Strands of Demon Nature from the calamity—something Qi Ping had never seen before—were directly ripped out of the Heaven-and-Earth Calamity by those tendrils and turned into their own nourishment!
"It’s actually separating and devouring the demonic energy within the Heaven-and-Earth Calamity!?"
Qi Ping was abruptly stunned by the scene before him.
That was the Heaven-and-Earth Calamity—an existence in which even Integration Stage cultivators could fall!
Yet the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber was actually devouring the Demon Nature within it?
"So this is the might of a True Demon Realm cultivator’s Dao Fruit stacked with the Power of the Great Dao?"
Even Qi Ping had to admit that it would be incredibly difficult for him to pull off such a feat, yet the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber had done it so easily, and on such a massive scale, almost drawing in the high-density calamity within tens of miles around!
Although the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber was currently in the midst of breaking through to the Integration Perfect Level, it was still utterly terrifying.
After devouring such vast and mighty calamity Demon Nature, the originally pitch-black tendrils suddenly took on different calamity hues, and their aura sharply rose by an entire major level!
After continuing like this for quite some time, those tendrils, stained with various calamity colors, finally completed their slow metamorphosis.
When those tendrils completed their final transformation, they reverted to their original form....they were actually fragments of the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber!
Immediately afterward, countless fragments descended toward Qi Ping, finally gathering in his hand into a multicolored Demon Blade!
Right then, a stream of information poured into Qi Ping’s mind:
"Celestial-Slaying Demon Thought? So this is the ability you birthed after reaching Perfection?"
Feeling that power capable of opening the heavens and splitting the earth, Qi Ping finally witnessed what the true Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber was!
Compared to now, the previous Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber was practically an infant.
What permeated the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber now was ultimate sharpness and explosive power—power terrifying enough to annihilate everything. Even with Qi Ping’s current strength, he felt a trace of dread; and he was the saber’s master!
This astonished Qi Ping beyond measure!
After the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber truly completed its metamorphosis, the power it displayed was simply too shocking!
If he were to encounter that previous humanoid Holy Demon at the Integration Late Stage or that Integration Perfect Holy Ape again, the outcome would definitely not be the same!
And this still wasn’t the most terrifying aspect of the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber!
The most terrifying part was its abilities of division and devouring!
Division: after the Demon Blade shatters the enemy’s defense, it instantly divides into countless fragments that burrow into the enemy’s body to destroy and grind them apart.
Devouring: it can, in a short span, devour a massive amount of essence and power, and has an exceptionally strong devouring effect on Demon Race physiques....
Only by pairing Heaven-Slaying Power with division and devouring is one using the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber properly!
"Besides...this seems to be only your beginning!"
Qi Ping looked at the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber, a cruel smile suddenly flashing in his eyes.
He had originally thought that once it reached Integration Perfection, the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber would slowly approach its limit. But now, after sensing the even more exuberant Devouring Power within the blade, he realized that only now had the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber truly become a mere embryo!
In other words, the true growth of the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber was only just beginning!
"The special power formed by the combination of the True Demon Realm and the Dao Laws of the Ancient Battlefield turned out to be this frightening...."
"And also, after Baili Yun’s Dao Fruit fused with the Demon Blade, it completely broke free of the shackles of cultivation and unleashed the terror that truly belongs to the True Demon Realm...."
Only at this moment did Qi Ping truly grasp how terrifying a True Demon Realm cultivator really was!
...
Because he had spent too much time killing that Integration Perfect Holy Ape of the Demon Race, Qi Ping did not encounter any other Holy Demons of the Demon Race in the time that followed.
But this did not relax Qi Ping in the slightest; instead, it made him grow even more tense.
Qi Ping even began burning his essence blood within the limits of his recovery in order to speed up!
As time passed, the unease in Qi Ping’s heart grew increasingly intense, because his speed was getting faster and faster. In the end, he did not hesitate even when his expenditure surpassed his recovery...
"What exactly are these Holy Demons of the Demon Race doing? What kind of power is driving so many Holy Demons to gather together?"
"This situation should have nothing to do with the Calamity Battlefield itself...it should be the Demon Race’s own doing...."
"But when everyone is a Holy Demon, an ordinary Holy Demon shouldn’t have such rallying power...."
"To achieve this, either there has appeared within the Demon Race a bloodline that stands above all demons—an Emperor Level bloodline that may not appear even once in an era....or it’s that still-unsolved mystery....the Demon Nest!"
At that thought, the unease in Qi Ping’s heart grew even stronger.
No matter the reason, no matter what this group of Demons wanted to do, he had to go and stop them!
Whatever the enemy wanted to accomplish was exactly what he needed to destroy. And as long as he didn’t run into a Holy Demon with an extremely powerful Time System, Space System, or Mysterious Power, his chances of escape were still reasonably assured...
Besides, in the end, this was only a clone. Although he had invested an enormous amount of resources and effort into this clone, to the point that in some aspects it differed very little from his main body...
Right now, with who knew how many Star Sea citizens sacrificing themselves every single moment, this was no time to haggle over such things. As long as they won, the resources spent on one clone were nothing at all; but if they lost....having a few more clones like this wouldn’t mean much....
Thus, after crossing another vast distance, Qi Ping finally relied on his keen Spiritual Sense to find the gathering point of those Holy Demons!
And the purpose of the Demon Race Holy Demons’ gathering—and the scene itself—finally entered Qi Ping’s sight!
"This is...devouring and fusion?"
Right now, there were sixteen Holy Demons of the Demon Race in front of Qi Ping!
These sixteen Holy Demons were stuck together in a bizarre posture. Each Holy Demon’s body was covered in a layer of black membrane resembling Dragon Scale...
Yet this was still not the most terrifying part. The truly horrifying thing was the aura these Demon Race Holy Demons were now unleashing—it actually shook apart all the terrifying Power of Calamity!
No matter what kind of Power of Calamity it was, at this moment it could not approach these Demon Race Holy Demons in the slightest!
Moreover, on two of those Holy Demons, Qi Ping clearly perceived a terrifying Power of Time....as well as a Mysterious Power he had never understood before yet which, at a single glance, made one’s scalp go numb....
