Wizard: Grinding to Lord of Truth

Chapter 229: Chapter 229: With Ease

When the Celestial Crystal Demon appeared, every Magical Beast froze, staring dumbfounded as it descended from the sky.

They had never encountered a Demon before, let alone seen one in the flesh.

"...A Soul-Devouring Hook Snake. That’s a pretty decent Bloodline."

After landing, Klein looked at the Bosha Giant Elephant and the Two-Clawed Giant Snake.

The moment he saw the Two-Clawed Giant Snake, he instantly recognized its Bloodline as that of a Soul-Devouring Hook Snake. A flicker of greed, a sight almost impossible for such a creature, flashed in his Crystal Stone eyes.

’So many?’ Red-haired Klein scanned the area. Every snake with claws on its belly was a Soul-Devouring Hook Snake.

The Soul-Devouring Hook Snake was a Soul Element Magical Beast.

While the "Soul Element" part of that classification was questionable, they were still incredibly valuable.

’I never thought a squabble between Magical Beast species would lead to such a windfall for me!’

Red-haired Klein grinned, the expression forming sharp, severe angles on his face of Crystal Stone.

Then, Red-haired Klein charged the Bosha Giant Elephant and the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake.

Seeing the sudden intruder charge right for them, the Bosha Giant Elephant and the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake let out a roar, trying to halt his advance.

But the Power of the two beasts was nothing before Red-haired Klein.

This was true even though Red-haired Klein was only using a clone.

Under normal circumstances, this clone only possessed Morning Star Level combat strength.

But if he burned the Original Crystal Stone within the Celestial Crystal Demon’s body, cost be damned, the clone could unleash power at the Moonlight Level.

Of course, dealing with the Bosha Giant Elephant and Soul-Devouring Hook Snake before him didn’t require power at the Moonlight Grand Wizard Level. The Celestial Crystal Demon’s Morning Star Level body was more than enough to beat the two behemoths into submission.

When the Bosha Giant Elephant and the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake saw that Red-haired Klein ignored their warning, they instantly joined forces and charged the Celestial Crystal Demon.

They thought that by joining forces, they could send this sudden intruder flying.

They never expected to be the ones sent flying instead.

While the Bosha Giant Elephant’s Realm was touching the very edge of Morning Star, and its body had changed accordingly...

...the gap between touching the edge and being fully immersed in the Morning Star Realm was astronomical.

With just a slight push, the Celestial Crystal Demon sent both the Bosha Giant Elephant and the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake flying.

The two beasts traced a parabola through the air before crashing heavily into the ground, gouging out two deep craters.

"You are both elites among Level 3 Magical Beasts. You possess intelligence on par with humans."

"Submit to me if you don’t want to die. If you do? I can finish you off right now."

After sending them flying, the Celestial Crystal Demon made no further moves. Instead, it tried to persuade the Bosha Giant Elephant and the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake.

For Klein, dealing with these two Magical Beasts was child’s play, but it was inevitable he would injure them in the process.

And he intended to give these two Magical Beasts to someone as a gift.

A damaged gift would be rather unsightly.

The Soul-Devouring Hook Snake glared at Red-haired Klein, let out a furious hiss, and charged again. The Bosha Giant Elephant, however, remained still, the light of what could be called wisdom glinting in its eyes.

’So used to being the bully that you can’t tell who’s really in charge, is that it?’

Red-haired Klein shook his head as the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake charged him. He then raised a hand and swatted it, breaking the beast in two.

This didn’t mean he had killed it; rather, he had aimed for the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake’s spine and snapped it in two.

The Soul-Devouring Hook Snake thrashed on the ground, writhing from the agony of its shattered spine.

But then it activated its Talent Witchcraft. A Golden Light emerged, and the broken spine began to mend.

’It even has that kind of Witchcraft?’ Red-haired Klein’s Crystal Stone eyes swiveled in surprise as he watched the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake.

But with an explosive boom from where he stood, the Celestial Crystal Demon’s body shot forward.

Instantly, the sound of THUD, THUD, THUD echoed without end.

Five white, vaporous rings appeared behind the Celestial Crystal Demon.

If Andre had seen these five rings, his jaw would have hit the floor.

Because these five white, vaporous rings were Mach Rings, a phenomenon from his past life.

Just by kicking off with its legs, the Celestial Crystal Demon had easily broken Mach 5, a testament to the sheer power of this body.

Seeing the Celestial Crystal Demon charging it, the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake endured the pain in its spine, forced its jaws open, and spewed a massive stream of pale blue venom from its injured lungs.

The moment the venom left the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake’s mouth, its fumes alone caused the surrounding flora to wither and die.

Splatters of venom that landed on the ground produced a loud SIZZLING sound.

Soon, the hard ground had been corroded into a large pit.

But the Celestial Crystal Demon was completely unfazed.

The environments that Celestial Crystal Demons inhabited in the Bottomless Abyss were far more brutal than this snake’s venom.

After all, due to their unique physiology, every Celestial Crystal Demon could bathe in lava as if they were Rock Demons.

Likewise, they could trek endlessly through extreme cold, just like Ice Demons.

As long as the external conditions didn’t exceed the limits of a Celestial Crystal Demon’s crystalline body, there was nowhere they couldn’t go.

And so, in a flash, the Celestial Crystal Demon passed right through the cloud of venom.

To the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake’s utter astonishment, the Celestial Crystal Demon slapped it right on the head.

This single slap sent the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake into pained convulsions until finally, the intense agony caused the Level 3 Magical Beast to pass out.

SMACK! The Soul-Devouring Hook Snake landed heavily on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

After dealing with the Soul-Devouring Hook Snake, the Celestial Crystal Demon immediately turned its gaze to the Bosha Giant Elephant.

The Bosha Giant Elephant watched its old rival get slapped to the ground by the Celestial Crystal Demon. It let out a trumpet, then bent its front legs, indicating its surrender.

Red-haired Klein looked at the Bosha Giant Elephant and nodded.

He then reverted to his human form.

"You know how to read the situation. And since you do, you won’t have to suffer."

Red-haired Klein nodded at the Bosha Giant Elephant, then walked over and patted its enormous head.

The Bosha Giant Elephant’s body trembled as Red-haired Klein patted it.

After all, it had just witnessed with its own eyes how Red-haired Klein had effortlessly slapped its old rival to the ground.
