Chapter 410 - 337: Annihilation_2
“Turned to dust, huh!”
Many of the Shining Stars were overjoyed. The power of the array at Jilei Ridge was such that even a Radiant Moon Level opponent wouldn’t want to face it head-on!
Now that the enemy had disappeared, it was highly likely that they had been bombarded to death.
However, the Double Ring Snake’s eyes narrowed as it frowned at a certain spot above the large pit. The spatial fluctuations there were becoming more apparent under the thunder strike. It immediately activated the array’s green talisman to gather thunder once more!
At that moment, a layer of black light appeared above the pit, and a young man with a handsome face suddenly emerged out of thin air.
The Double Ring Snake’s face changed dramatically. If the enemy was here, then what about the Thunder Roc and Purple-eyed Thunder Horned Beast?
The best outcome would be if they were trapped. As for the worse outcome…
The Double Ring Snake trembled, not daring to think further.
“Thunder, kill him!”
A loud shout, and a torrent of lightning was about to crash down again. But a flash of silver light appeared on Su Yuan’s body, and he was already in front of the Double Ring Snake. His left hand held Phoenix Perch, his right hand wielded Demon-controlling God, and black flames danced on the blade, making him appear like a demon god!
“Two Heavens, One Style.”
The four words whispered to the Double Ring Snake’s ears like the voice of death.
In an instant, crossed black light flashed, and blood splattered high into the air. The Double Ring Snake fell into a pool of blood with a look of shock.
A sudden silence fell over Jilei Ridge.
The Double Ring Snake had been slaughtered, and the Golden Winged Thunder Roc and Purple-eyed Thunder Horned Beast were nowhere to be found.
The surrounding demons were in shock. They had no idea what had happened. How had Jilei Ridge, which had three epic leaders, fallen to pieces like this?
With a thought, Su Yuan sent numerous Sky Locks in all directions, then released Ruan Ruan and summoned the Evil Dragon Demon.
“Clean it up.”
“Yes, Master!”
Ruan Ruan saw that the opponent she had struggled with for so long had been killed by Su Yuan in one move. She praised her master’s prowess while feeling a renewed sense of her own inadequacy.
Ruan Ruan calmed her inflated sense of power from recent strength increases, then divided herself and charged toward the remaining Star Beasts, killing them, including over a dozen Shining Star Level ones…
In reality, Su Yuan had already taken care of the Purple-eyed Thunder Horned Beast. He just wanted to give Ruan Ruan more opportunities for high-intensity battles.
However, when Ruan Ruan wanted to protect Qingming Realm by enduring the array’s thunder, Su Yuan, worried she might get injured, decided to step in.
Now, with the three epic star beasts all dead, Ruan Ruan and the Evil Dragon Demon slaughtering the remaining foes, and Su Yuan in command, the rest of the enemies had no chance of fighting back…
Long after, all the remaining Star Beasts on Jilei Ridge were dead.
“Demon-slaying progress, Shining Star Level (20/20)”
Su Yuan nodded slightly. After this trip, the demon-slaying progress of the Demon-controlling God Demon Saber for Shining Star Level Star Beasts was finally complete.
As for the Golden Star Beast’s demon-slaying progress, it had long surpassed a hundred.
Now he only needed one Radiant Moon Level…
But killing a Radiant Moon Level Star Beast wasn’t so easy.
After the Upper Three-level, each level’s strength disparity was immense.
Overcoming levels to kill enemies became increasingly unlikely.
Even with Su Yuan’s significant increase in strength, killing a Radiant Moon Level would have to be carefully planned.
And preferably not in the Ancient Forbidden Zone.
If the fight dragged on and drew in other Radiant Moon demon beasts, the consequences would be unimaginable…
“Master, it’s all cleaned up.”
Ruan Ruan and the Evil Dragon Demon piled a large heap of star cores in front of him. There were seven or eight hundred, almost none of the Bronze Level.
Su Yuan placed his hand on the pile of star cores and quickly decomposed them all.
Shining Star Level Master Grade star cores could bring thousands of star dust.
Just a dozen Shining Star Level cores meant fifty or sixty thousand star dust.
The rest of the star cores, when combined, also totaled close to a hundred thousand.
As for the three epic star beasts…
The Golden Winged Thunder Roc’s corpse, including the star core, was left for Ruan Ruan to devour.
The star cores of the Purple-eyed Thunder Horned Beast and Wind and Thunder Double Ring Snake were extracted for epic skills.
The horns and snake skin of the two beasts, being valuable star beast materials, were temporarily stored in a corner of the Qingming Realm.
“Ruan Ruan, go back and devour the Golden Winged Thunder Roc first.”
Ruan Ruan looked excited: “Thank you, Master!”
Su Yuan smiled and patted her head before sending her into the Qingming Realm.
“Since it’s settled, let’s head back quickly. But before that…”
Su Yuan turned his gaze north, swiftly moving to two kilometers north of the Golden Peng Hall, at the center of the Bamboo Sea.
Here stood a unique golden pattern green bamboo, mighty with green thunder entwined, seemingly the core of all bamboos.
Earlier, during the thunder gathering, Su Yuan had felt its presence among tens of thousands of Jilei Bamboos.
“Fourth-level Spirit Plant, Green Divine Shining Thunder Bamboo!”
Su Yuan took a deep breath. Such a treasure, encountering it meant he naturally couldn’t let it go.
In the past, Su Yuan might have only taken a segment for personal use.
But now, possessing an entire realm, his vision had to be broader.
The Qingming Realm was empty. It needed enrichment.
“I want to take you to another place,” Su Yuan said.
The Green Divine Shining Thunder Bamboo seemed to understand, green thunder surging, followed by a burst of concentrated blue lightning.
Seeing this, Su Yuan raised his hand and called out Broken Space.
“Bzzt… bzzt!”
The blue lightning hissed but couldn’t break through Broken Space.
Seconds later, the lightning dissipated. The Green Divine Shining Thunder Bamboo retracted its thunder light, shaking slightly as if agreeing to Su Yuan’s words.
The Green Divine Shining Thunder Bamboo knew well that it was just a spirit plant. With the deaths of the Golden Winged Thunder Roc and others, it couldn’t resist the person before it.
Su Yuan nodded, stepped closer to the Green Divine Shining Thunder Bamboo, and touched its stem: “Qingming.”
A layer of deep black light spread from Su Yuan’s feet, enveloping the central Bamboo Sea, including the Green Divine Shining Thunder Bamboo. In an instant, even the soil was absorbed into the Qingming Realm.
The Central Bamboo Sea had not just the Green Divine Shining Thunder Bamboo, but also many Level Three Shining Thunder Bamboos and Level Two Gathering Thunder Bamboos. It was the core of the entire Bamboo Sea.
Su Yuan now sought not just a few items for his use.
He wanted to enrich the ecology of the Qingming Realm, truly building it into a world with substantial power!
Satisfied, Su Yuan gazed at the huge pit left before him.
This trip yielded three major gains.
First, a significant collection of star dust before departing.
Second, feeding the Golden Winged Thunder Roc to Ruan Ruan; the Da Peng Clan was a high-level star beast species with a robust body and incredible speed.
If Ruan Ruan could transform into a Golden Winged Peng, her combat and overall abilities would greatly improve.
Third, the Central Bamboo Sea, which surprisingly housed a Fourth-level Green Divine Shining Thunder Bamboo, was an unexpected delight.
“Now, it’s time to leave.”
With things settled, it was best to leave quickly. Otherwise, delays could bring trouble. If a Radiant Moon Level demon beast from Fulong Mountain arrived, it would be problematic…
Su Yuan spread his arms. A vast silver space power gathered, and a huge space gate appeared before him.
With a step, Su Yuan vanished from the devastated Jilei Ridge…
