Urban Invincible Overlord

Chapter 1630: Chapter 1627: A Worrisome State

"Come, cauldron!"

With a wave of Yang Fei’s large hand, a profound azure light enveloped the area, and the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace instantly absorbed the massive body of the Huo Dou Great Demon.

The azure fox-like Great Demon witnessed this scene, an expression of terror and dread crossing its face, but a hint of relief flashed in its eyes.

Fortunately, it surrendered quickly, otherwise, it would have been the first to be suppressed, not the Huo Dou Great Demon.

Both it and the Huo Dou Great Demon belong to the second generation of Ancient Demon Beasts suppressed at Penglai Immortal Mountain.

It clearly remembers its father telling it as a child about the aura of the cultivation technique practiced by the saint who suppressed them at Penglai Immortal Mountain.

To the Qingqiu Clan’s Fox Demon, this aura is as pure and holy as the purest spiritual energy in the world, possessing a deadly allure.

It recalls its mother advising that if it ever encounters a human practicing this cultivation method, it should not be an enemy but rather form a good relationship.

The Qingqiu Six-tailed Mystic Fox previously only desired to join the demon beast army to occupy the most spiritually rich main peak of White Jade City and to restore its power and realm. It had seen Yang Fei from afar in the past and knew of Yang Fei’s might.

However, at that time, Yang Fei hadn’t been cultivating the "Tao Longevity Scripture" for long, and his realm wasn’t strong, being only at the Foundation Establishment. It hadn’t sensed the aura of Yang Fei’s cultivation technique.

Today, with close contact, it remembered the familiar aura its mother had once made it feel, and it decisively chose to submit to Yang Fei.

After suppressing the Ancient Huo Dou Great Demon, Yang Fei looked forward and saw that the other Great Demons had already fled desperately far away. Not only that, these Great Demons were very clever, gathering together and vigilantly glancing back at Yang Fei from time to time.

Obviously, the formidable power Yang Fei displayed, capable of suppressing them, posed a significant threat, and the usually independent, mountain-ruling Great Demons understood the importance of sticking together at that moment.

Yang Fei remarked ruefully.

If he could suppress all the Great Demons at this moment, it would surely have an immense deterrent effect on the demon beast army, reducing the future threat to White Jade City.

However, he didn’t turn back but continued chasing the weaker demon beasts that hadn’t had time to escape with his Soul Binding Rope and the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace.

Though called weak demon beasts, they were not weak.

Apart from the newly reproduced demon beasts of recent years, which had not absorbed much spiritual energy and relied merely on brute strength, the other demon beasts, having escaped the seal of Penglai Immortal Mountain, had strength above the late-stage Foundation Establishment, with the majority being third-rank demon beasts, equivalent to the combat power of human Core Formation stage cultivators.

To deal with such demon beasts, human cultivators needed at least four to five times the number of cultivators at the same realm, relying on attack-type magical treasures and talismans to suppress or annihilate them.

But for these demon beasts facing Yang Fei, a unique human cultivator equipped with the Soul Binding Rope and Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace, it was as if they had met a killing god.

Wherever Yang Fei went, the Soul Binding Rope swung continuously, extracting the divine souls from each third-rank demon beast, their massive bodies tumbling to the ground amid their escape.

All the way on his pursuit, dozens, up to a hundred third-rank demon beasts fell where Yang Fei passed.

Until he reached the edge where the oppressive force of the Four Spirits Blood Array could not intimidate the demon beasts, Yang Fei saw that the demon beast army ahead was no longer fleeing. Instead, one by one, they revealed scarlet glows, staring at him with fury. Some of the more violent beasts even roared angrily, seemingly ready to charge at him in a frenzy. Yang Fei thought for a moment and decided to stop his pursuit.

Better not to bully... bully the beasts too much.

The recent frenzy of chasing had him swinging the Soul Binding Rope over a hundred times, significantly depleting his divine soul.

Most critically, without the terrifying pressure of the Four Spirits Blood Array, these fierce and irritable beasts, if they all charged at him, could force him to retreat despite managing to hold out for a while.

Rather than put himself at risk and end up so embarrassed, why bother?

Moreover, this harvest was already bountiful, requiring ample time for proper assimilation.

Decisively, he turned back, urging the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace along the way to continually devour and absorb the bodies of the divine-soul-extracted demon beasts.

After devouring more than ten demon beast bodies, Yang Fei could distinctly sense the increasingly intense bloodthirsty aura, with an inexplicable dread and fear arising deep in his heart.

Considering the battle with Flame Moon Sect earlier, and now suppressing so many third-rank demon beasts, the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace had devoured an uncountable amount of cultivator and demon beast qi, blood, and life essence blood, leaving him unsure how much it could recover...

If it recovered too fast and he couldn’t keep up with its growth, might it spiral out of control?

Yang Fei remained secretly vigilant.

He was acutely aware that the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace had no master-servant relationship with him; it submitted only because it couldn’t overpower him.

But once it regained enough strength to suppress him, he feared becoming its puppet.

Though he was cautious and wary in mind, he couldn’t afford to waste the corpses of so many third-rank demon beasts with extracted divine souls. Yang Fei still urged the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace to devour and suppress them all.

Returning to the top of White Jade City Mountain, he was met with the sight of Qin Yanyang, Tong Yunshu, Zhuge Cang, Wang Chunfeng, Hu Lizhong, Xiang Yunfei, and the Blood Clan members Wales and Chris, all with fearful expressions staring at him.

Yang Fei’s heart stirred, yet he feigned ignorance and asked, "What’s wrong? Why are you all looking at me like that?"

Qin Yanyang took a couple of breaths and said, "Yang Fei, can’t you feel it yourself?"

Yang Fei shook his head.

Tong Yunshu expressed concern, "Yang Fei, you... you’d better use that bronze furnace less in the future; it... it feels so evil."

"Hmph, ignorant woman." The Artifact Spirit of the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace snorted upon hearing Tong Yunshu’s voice.

However, only Yang Fei could hear its voice.

Communicating with the Artifact Spirit through his divine sense, Yang Fei said, "You are indeed evil, and she is my woman; why shouldn’t she speak about you?"

The tone of the Artifact Spirit of the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace became annoyed, "You’re just like my former master, always listening to women. Kid, let me tell you, women will only hinder your growth; they’re of no benefit to you. Have your fun, but don’t take them too seriously, or you’ll surely suffer chaos."

Yang Fei was at a loss for words.

Damn, are you trying to teach me how to live? I’m a human, unlike you, a sentient artifact spirit. Is a person without emotions even human?

He couldn’t be bothered to explain and merely told the Artifact Spirit to shut up, while he reassuringly said to Tong Yunshu, "Rest assured, I know what I’m doing. Plus, given the circumstances today, if I hadn’t seized the opportunity to kill more demon beasts to assert dominance, these beastly creatures will continue to invade."

Tong Yunshu responded, "Yes, I’m not saying you’re wrong to kill these demon beasts, but... the aura around you is so heavy. As you walked back, it was like a god or demon returning from hell."

Yang Fei glanced at the others, noticing fear in their eyes.

He could also sense the terrifying bloodthirsty aura of the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace, requiring proper assimilation. So he said, "Crisis averted, you can all disperse now. I need to cleanse myself a bit first."

With that said, he flashed away, returning to the wooden building.
