Chapter 1482: Chapter 209: Mad Da Zhe

The gate opened, and Da Zhe walked directly within—this was the entrance straight into the Beastfighting Arena.

Just as Master Musashi had said, upon entering from the outside, the body would undergo a miniature treatment… It was only now that Da Zhe felt the immensity of the arena.

Inside the arena was not just a simple venue but rather divided into four different zones, each corresponding to different kinds of climates… When Da Zhe entered, the area he was in was directly an icy and snowy land.

Due to the blizzard, visibility was severely limited… The visibility was so low that Da Zhe found it difficult to rely on sight alone to search for anything.

As for the sound… amidst the wind and snow, the cries of different kinds of Void Primordial Demons mingled, resembling the wails of Hell.

Da Zhe looked around him, the wind and snow completely obscured the traces on the ground, but logically, it hadn’t been long since Master Musashi put that Void Primordial Demon into the arena… It shouldn’t have gone far.

He began to run quickly across the snowy plain, occasionally encountering rampant Void Primordial Demons but didn’t stay long… Those he could kill with one strike, he dispatched and then stored in the Qiankun Bag. If it required a brief entanglement, he ignored it—he estimated he was still on the outskirts, where the Void Primordial Demons were generally the kind that could be instantly slain… and this was without him using the Zhan Lu Sword.

It wasn’t until Da Zhe encountered the first Void Primordial Demon that required two or three strikes that he felt something amiss—the arena was clearly much larger than he had imagined.

“Something’s not right… Even if it’s more massive than I thought, the frequency with which I encounter minor monsters is way too low,” Da Zhe recalled the scene when he observed the arena from above.

Back then, it seemed like the Void Primordial Demons were densely packed in the venue… It wasn’t as sparsely populated as this.

This made Da Zhe calm down… If the number of minor monsters in the area decreased, there were only two possibilities: they were either all killed, or they all moved to some other place.

“This wind and snow are really a nuisance…” Da Zhe looked up, seeing the wind and snow covering everything, feeling quite troubled—Da Zhe, with some straightforward thinking, came up with the simplest method to dispel this wind and snow.

How to dispel it?

Sword light soared into the sky, wildly surging, and then slashed directly into the air above the snowy field… Then the sword light condensed, finally returning to Da Zhe’s body, as the sky above the snowy field seemed to tear open with a massive rift, causing the wind and snow to push to the sides, and brightness shone through the crack, making the snowy field clearly visible.

Da Zhe gazed into the distance and instantly spotted dozens of Void Primordial Demons originally hidden in the wind and snow—he saw these Void Primordial Demons hopping across the snowy field, seemingly heading in the same direction, and out of curiosity, he followed them.

As he proceeded, the broken blizzard was like flowing water, eventually returning to its original state… It seemed the climate here was constant, but fortunately, Da Zhe had already caught a Void Primordial Demon moving in a specific direction, so he didn’t need to break through the blizzard again.

Finally… amidst the sound of wind and snow, some wailing became especially clear, and Da Zhe arrived in an ice valley and looked down, frowning.

In the ice valley, hundreds of Void Primordial Demons gathered, like ants, moving in one direction—at the end of that direction stood the bullhead beetle-shaped Void Primordial Demon that the King of the Huns had sent Master Musashi to place here!

For some reason, the gathered Void Primordial Demons didn’t attack each other; their target seemed to be solely this bullhead beetle-like creature… attacking madly, rasping, as if desperate to devour this bullhead beetle-shaped Void Primordial Demon completely.

When Da Zhe visited the Palace of Eternal Night, Master Musashi had mentioned that these Void Primordial Demons are particularly obsessed with things possessing souls, and if it’s a True Soul, they go berserk.

They have almost no thoughts, only an instinctual craving for souls, unaware of fear and pain, able to fight to the death—Da Zhe finally saw the terrifying nature of these Void Primordial Demons.

At this moment, under the siege of hundreds of Void Primordial Demons, the bullhead beetle Elemental Demon was already covered in wounds… It could only struggle to hold on, constantly emitting a painful wail.

“Hmm… What is this?”

During his continuous observation of this bullhead beetle-shaped Void Primordial Demon, Da Zhe suddenly noticed something embedded in a certain spot in the center of its abdomen… It was actually a palm-sized bone flute!

This was the tool Fish Ball Qiang used to control that flying ant-like Void Primordial Demon.

Even though the Void Primordial Demons devour each other, it’s not the case that all Void Primordial Demons would target the same goal—these Void Primordial Demons in the ice valley were clearly after the bullhead beetle…signifying their desire for souls!

This bullhead beetle Elemental Demon had at least some soul remaining on it?

“Could it be…” Da Zhe was startled, thinking of some unpleasant possibility, and immediately jumped from the ice peak… He planned to examine this bullhead beetle-shaped Elemental Demon closely.

But just as he leaped down the ice valley, something shot through the air like a venomous snake, and wrapped around his leg—it was a black whip with a flashing red pattern!

One end of the whip curled around Da Zhe’s calf and then slammed him fiercely onto the ice peak above… Da Zhe’s body crashed into the ice peak, causing the entire mountain to shake.

Large chunks of ice and shattered snow plummeted, snow mist wafted upwards, shrouding the upper layers of the ice peak like a cloud.

Da Zhe shook his head, feeling a bit dizzy from the collision, broke out from under the piled ice, and landed once again on a small platform extending from the ice peak… Suddenly, he stretched out his hand, grabbing the whip that attacked from behind, and held it tightly.

At this moment, Da Zhe exhaled slowly and said indifferently, “It seems I’m quite the popular one… King of the Huns, we meet again.”

As the fog on the ice peak started to dissipate a bit, the source of the whip deep within the mist gradually became visible… Da Zhe squinted his eyes, finally seeing that it was indeed the figure of Hunnic King Attila.

This extremely tyrannical ruler had a bizarre smile on his face, “I told you, the area outside the residence is very dangerous… Entry level guys shouldn’t wander around.”

“What’s the deal with the Void Primordial Demon you sent here?” Da Zhe couldn’t be bothered with this guy’s word games and asked directly, “If you tell me to guess, I’ll just beat you up.”

“Why don’t you guess,” the King of the Huns was completely unfazed.

Da Zhe then exhaled heavily, and just as the King of the Huns’ face was showing signs of satisfaction, Da Zhe, with a sudden exertion of his arm, unexpectedly pulled the long whip, forcibly dragging the Hunnic King’s body towards him!

King Attila’s expression changed slightly, hurriedly stabilizing his body that was being pulled forward—unaware that Da Zhe then sprung from his stance, causing the ice peak to crack massively due to his force—Da Zhe was already within arm’s reach of the King of the Huns!

Boom——!!

A massive sound reverberated through the Ice Valley, so loud that the snow on the surrounding ice peaks began to collapse—it was a punch that directly hit the chest of the King of the Huns!

This punch actually caused the King of the Huns’ breastbone to cave directly into his body. A mouthful of thick blood spurted from his mouth, his eyes filled with blood, and his brain seemed to be buzzing like an explosion!

Yet, Da Zhe did not stop, wrapping the whip he held around the King of the Huns several times, then swung it like crazy… At this moment, the King of the Huns was like a stone tied to one end of a rope. Due to the centrifugal force, the entire whip straightened!

Bang bang bang bang bang——!!!

And so, Da Zhe swung the whip, smashing the King of the Huns everywhere… It seemed as if he possessed endless stamina, smashing all the surrounding ice peaks into pieces before finally stopping.

Da Zhe still held one end of the whip… The whip naturally hung down, with the bound King of the Huns dangling mid-air, his entire body seemingly with every bone fractured, unable to maintain his original appearance!

“Can you talk now?” Da Zhe looked down and asked, then shook the whip in his hand, letting go of the end binding Attila, causing the King of the Huns to plummet into the Ice Valley.

Attila lay on the ground, his limbs and even his neck were twisted…but strangely, his head suddenly twisted more bizarrely, then his body rigidly stood up…the twisted limbs making cracking sounds before returning to normal.

The Hun rotated his shoulder at this moment, expressionlessly looking up, “Impressive impact, sufficient force, looks like the Fuxi Throne acknowledges you, though barely.”

Da Zhe shook his head, descending slowly, speaking blandly, “Do all of you who just got beaten have to say something dramatic… I thought you might be a tad different.”

“Ah hahahaha!!!” The King of the Huns suddenly laughed wildly, “Newcomer, I like your spirit… Tell the king your name! Acting without hesitation, such a trait I like!”

“Not interested in bromance, thank you!” Da Zhe waved, “Stop the nonsense, speak quickly, or I’ll beat you again.”

The King of the Huns floated slowly towards Da Zhe, stared for a moment before suddenly speaking coldly, “Nothing much, the king just stuffed the brain medulla of an Ancestral Void Demon into that trash on the square. The guy took it gratefully… The king sure is merciful.”

“The brain… medulla of an Ancestral?” Da Zhe frowned, instinctively glancing at the Bull Head Beetle Elemental Demon being wildly attacked, “What happens if people eat this thing?”

“You already know.” The King of the Huns pointed his chin, “Just as you have seen with your own eyes.”

Da Zhe was silent for a moment, then asked seriously, “Can Fish Ball Qiang recover?”

The King of the Huns laughed, “Humans transforming into Elemental Demons, but not once an Elemental Demon reverted to being human… However, maybe this trash could be the first? After all, I’m using the Ancestral Elemental Demon’s brain medulla for the first time, it could have a different outcome.”

“That guy just wanted to become stronger.” Da Zhe sighed, “That’s why he kept flattering you… Forget it, this was his choice. He can only blame his luck meeting you.”

But the King of the Huns frowned, “Why, you’re not planning to help him take revenge?”

“Not interested.” Da Zhe shook his head, watching the Bull Head Beetle Monster struggling under the Void Elemental Demons’ attacks, “Can’t you tell… even as he is now, Fish Ball Qiang is still trying. It’s already hard for him to live, but he persisted, albeit weak… yet don’t you think he deserves respect? Avenging him would insult his effort… If there’s revenge, he should do it himself.”

“Himself?” The King of the Huns laughed as if hearing something especially funny, “This trash? You’re going to laugh me to death! Not to mention he was trash to begin with, even if transformed into an Ancestral Void Demon, would you expect the king to fear a mindless beast?”

“Then let him acquire a mind.” Da Zhe said abruptly.

The King of the Huns was momentarily stunned, only to see Da Zhe suddenly rush towards the surrounded Bull Head Beetle Monster… The King of the Huns wasn’t sure what Da Zhe was up to but was confident in his power, so he quietly observed.

Da Zhe approached the top of the Bull Head Beetle Monster… He stood atop its head, and the monster shouted even more insanely.

“Fish Ball Qiang… Brother Qiang, if you can hear me, calm down.” Da Zhe whispered, “I feel it… maybe you don’t understand, but I am also sensitive to such strong things, after all, I am also black…”

The wind and snow concealed Da Zhe’s voice. The King of the Huns couldn’t hear clearly, but magically, the Bull Head Beetle Monster indeed quieted down, so quiet it felt eerie—it allowed the Void Elemental Demons to bite its body without any resistance!

“Last time at the Penglai Treasury, my boss settled my wages.” Da Zhe slowly took out a goatskin roll, raising it, “My boss said it was a one-time trade contract… just nod, and it will fulfill your desires. Of course, the more you’re willing to pay, the more you’ll receive.”

The wind and snow suddenly stopped.

The King of the Huns suddenly felt danger approaching—a sensation almost foreign since advancing into dimensional gaps—such intense unease urged him to rush up.

He didn’t care what Da Zhe was planning with the monster, only wanting to nip the danger in the bud.

“The Bull! The Camel!” The King of the Huns shouted, “The King’s embodiment, crush my enemies!”

In the sky, to the cries of the King of the Huns, vortexes abruptly appeared… A giant Bull and Camel tore from within, their massive forms overshadowing even the Bull Head Beetle Monster itself!

“This is my first business, don’t interfere! Get lost!”

Even honest people could get angry… Da Zhe sneered, reaching to loosen the Zhan Lu Sword around his neck, “Heavenly Sword!”

A hundred-meter-long sword light plunged from the sky, instantly slaying the mountain-sized Bull and Camel…

As the massive embodiments were instantly killed, the King of the Huns gaped, spitting blood that stained the sky, falling like a frostbitten eggplant, slowly to the ground.

“Hmph! Did you think the name Fengmen’ao Erli Village, Xindongfeng, Double-Flower Red Stick was fake?!”
