Urban Invincible Overlord

Chapter 1629: Chapter 1626: Subduing Huo Dou

"What a formidable demon beast!"

Yang Fei’s second whip struck solidly on this demon beast, achieving the best effect of the Soul Binding Rope’s soul-capturing efficacy. However, the demon beast’s Primordial Spirit was only momentarily extracted from its body and immediately stabilized itself again.

This was the first time Yang Fei encountered such a soul-capturing resistant Great Demon.

A cold light flashed in his eyes as he wielded the Soul Binding Rope for the third time.

I don’t believe it, you’re just a demon beast without any Solid Soul Talisman or a magic treasure for defense against soul-capturing attacks; can my Soul Binding Rope really not deal with you?

"Don’t kill me!"

Just as Yang Fei swung the whip for the third time, a pleading voice reached his ears.

This voice carried a peculiar magnetic quality that was indistinctly gendered yet extremely alluring, causing Yang Fei to feel reluctant. The Soul Binding Rope he swung out was forcibly retracted.

"I can lead our Qingqiu Clan to cooperate with you, and help you control other demon beasts to ensure that you humans are no longer threatened or persecuted by demon beasts."

The voice, filled with magnetic allure, reached his ears again.

Yang Fei snapped back to his senses, staring in surprise at the demon beast before him and said, "Is it you speaking to me?"

"Yes."

The Great Demon in front of him grinned, and the words that came from its mouth were human words.

However, it was not in the language of Earth humans but a language akin to runes, similar in pronunciation to the cultivation world’s script, which seemed very ancient, yet Yang Fei could understand it.

After a brief surprise, Yang Fei accepted the fact that the Great Demon could speak.

Previously, there was the Heaven-devouring Divine Beast with whom he could communicate through Divine Sense, and later, the Artifact Spirit of the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace that could converse with him.

Now, a Great Demon with power equivalent to a mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator could speak; he felt it was nothing astonishing.

"Prove your sincerity to me." Yang Fei said decisively after a brief surprise.

The cyan fox-like Great Demon’s eyes gleamed sharply, turning to face a pitch-black demon beast ahead, towering over ten zhang tall, built robust and solid, with four sharp fangs over a foot long bearing when it opened its mouth, seemingly breathing fire as it exhaled, and said, "This is the leader of the Huo Dou tribe. The strength of the Huo Dou tribe it leads is formidable. If you can subdue or kill it, the Huo Dou tribe will submit to you, and half of the demon beast calamity will be resolved."

"Then kill it!" Yang Fei said decisively.

The cyan fox-like demon beast’s eyes brightened and quickly charged towards the Huo Dou Great Demon.

Yang Fei followed closely.

Although the Huo Dou Great Demon couldn’t speak human language yet, its spiritual wisdom had awakened, seemingly aware of the danger, it roared furiously towards the cyan fox-like Great Demon, as if warning it.

However, the cyan fox-like Great Demon, only seeking self-preservation now, needed to demonstrate its sincerity to Yang Fei and completely disregarded the Huo Dou Great Demon’s warning, quickly closing in and, when less than thirty meters away, shot two sharp beams from its eyes.

"Roar!"

The Huo Dou Great Demon opened its blood-red mouth, emitted an eardrum-piercing roar of rage, and suddenly, a giant mass of fiery red light surged skyward, forcibly enveloping a vast stretch of void.

Yang Fei merely felt a searing blaze coming at him and quickly retreated.

Yet even though he retreated swiftly, standing a hundred meters away from the blaze, he still felt the scorching heatwaves emanating from the void ahead, alongside a pungent burning odor.

Yang Fei’s heart was filled with shock, his eyes revealing astonishment.

The flames that spewed from the Huo Dou’s mouth covered a full tens of thousands of square meters of the void like a cloud of fire; the entire void was incinerated, and the forest on the ground erupted into towering flames, the huge old branches combusting with cracking and exploding sounds.

The cyan fox-like Great Demon let out a pained scream, dodging swiftly, yet still having a large patch of fur scorched.

Meanwhile, the Huo Dou Great Demon, for some unknown reason, staggered and almost fell headlong to the ground.

Yang Fei’s eyes flashed as he was secretly frightened.

The fox-like cyan Great Demon’s mental assault was indeed overbearing; merely one glance inflicted harm upon the Huo Dou Great Demon.

However, this Huo Dou Great Demon was also extraordinary, unexpectedly able to spew such overbearing flames.

Through its roar and speed of movement, Yang Fei could determine that even if the Huo Dou Great Demon couldn’t breathe fire, the frontal combat strength it could unleash was still not to be underestimated.

Fortunately, though this massive demon beast had formidable combat power, it ultimately wasn’t at the Nascent Soul Stage of human cultivators; its attack methods were limited, posing little threat to human cultivators capable of short-distance instant teleportation.

However, it’s also not easy for human cultivators to subdue it.

They must rely on formation arrays, talismans, and other auxiliary attack methods.

"I will interfere with it using the Charm Technique, while you ambush it with the treasure in your hand; only thus can we suppress it. Otherwise, I cannot suppress it single-handedly; it will escape." The cyan fox-faced Great Demon said to Yang Fei.

Yang Fei’s mouth twitched.

Damn it, this guy actually understands tactical cooperation.

"Alright."

Yang Fei agreed.

The cyan fox-like demon beast once again charged towards the Huo Dou Great Demon.

At this moment, the Huo Dou Great Demon had already seized the opportunity to escape to the foothills. Seeing its opponents rushing towards it again with Yang Fei, it unleashed an angry roar.

Another massive cloud of fire burned in the void, blocking Yang Fei and the cyan fox-like demon beast’s footsteps.

Prior to this, the cyan fox unleashed two beams of essence once more, enveloping the Huo Dou Great Demon’s body, causing its form to stagger noticeably again—evidently disrupted by a spiritual attack.

Yang Fei saw through the Huo Dou Great Demon’s capacity and instantly teleported above its head, striking it with the Soul Binding Rope.

The Huo Dou Great Demon reacted extremely quickly; amidst its angry roar, a massive mass of flames erupted all around it.

Yang Fei was astonished and teleported away.

The flames spewed by the Huo Dou were truly overbearing, incomparably more formidable than the Fiery Flame Divine Eagle’s.

What shocked Yang Fei the most was that, although the Soul Binding Rope had struck the Huo Dou, at the moment when its soul-capturing effect was at its best, he still couldn’t fully extract the opponent’s divine soul.

Though he could sense that the opponent’s divine soul was just a little short of being dragged out by the Soul Binding Rope, it was still barely lacking.

Are the souls of the demon beasts sturdier than those of human cultivators?

Or is it that once a Great Demon reaches a certain level, its divine soul melds more tightly with its body, making extraction much harder?

With such doubts lingering, Yang Fei didn’t pause for a moment.

One hand gripping the Soul Binding Rope, the other forming a spell, he utilized the Ice Technique.

Instantly, an enormous chill enveloped him as he flickered and instantly teleported above the Huo Dou Great Demon that was escaping hundreds of meters away, once again wielding the Soul Binding Rope downwards.

Huo Dou emitted a torrent of flames around itself, attempting once again to force Yang Fei back.

However, this time Yang Fei was prepared; under the promotion of the Ice Technique, he was encased in an icy wall.

"Huff huff..."

The moment the fire and ice made contact, a piercing explosive sound resonated.

The overbearing flames failed to threaten Yang Fei’s body; wielding the Soul Binding Rope, Yang Fei struck the Huo Dou Great Demon a second time, hitting it on the head.

The Huo Dou Great Demon’s two massive eyeballs bulged instantly, its gaze becoming hollow and vacant.

Its powerful divine soul was finally dragged out of the Sea of Consciousness Space by the Soul Binding Rope.

"Boom boom boom!!!"

Having lost its soul, the Huo Dou Great Demon’s hulking body, still shrouded in unextinguished flames, rolled swiftly towards the mountain’s base within the forest, toppling a large swath of trees.
