Chapter 479: Demoness
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After quickly carving out multiple tunnels, countless Groundhogs swarmed into the plaza, forming a black mass in the blink of an eye, surrounding Yang Ling and his Magical Beast Army. Other than a few high-level Groundhogs, most of the Groundhogs had abilities equivalent to that of a level three or lower Magical Beast. Their individual battle capabilities were not strong, but they had the advantage in numbers, unleashing a tidal-like assault on Yang Ling’s army!
“Be careful of the illusions!” Yang Ling gave a terse order after escaping the radius of the demoness’s Fantasy Domain using his Earth Evasion Technique.
The abilities of the demoness were far stronger than anyone could have imagined. No one expected her domain to have such a strange soul attack, able to conjure illusions within the brain of her enemies. Caught off guard, the Dark Dragon King, Corpse Wizard King, and the rest of the group fell for her attacks, instantly having a lost expression on their faces. However, to Yang Ling, who was a Great Soul Wizard, a soul attack of such a level was unable to pose a fatal threat, and he quickly came to his senses.
To a person who had cultivated a domain that incorporated soul attacks, their soul was the core of the domain, while also being their greatest weakness. The Corpse Wizard King, who was adept in the Mind Magic Field was a living example. After having his Soul Energy severely injured by the Holy Dragon, he had to train bitterly for a few thousand years before his abilities reached the peak of Domain Level again. After successfully charging out of the demoness’s domain, Yang Ling took out the Crystal Skull without hesitation, directly attacking the soul of the other party.
His massive Divine Knowledge locked onto the soul ripples of the demoness, and with his best effort, he shot out the Roar of Dead Souls and Soul Assimilating Light Ray that could damage an enemy’s soul at a close distance. One bolt, two bolts…He launched continuous attacks on the demoness’s soul, not giving her any chance to breathe.
Even though it was the same Roar of Dead Souls and Soul Assimilating Light Ray he had used in the Underground Tomb, the power of the attacks was several times stronger than when it was back then due to the boost in his Wizard Power and Soul Energy. The attacks pierced into the demoness’s brain like sharp spikes.
Ah…
After letting out a pathetic cry, the demoness retreated in a hurry while hugging her head, avoiding the sharp claws of the Purple Rat Little Ice with difficulty. The Fantasy Domain that enveloped an area of a radius of twenty steps shrank rapidly, and the illusions that appeared in front of the Dark Dragon King and Corpse Wizard King disappeared without a trace.
“Get into formation, quick, get into formation!” After rapidly dispelling the demoness’s Fantasy Domain that clouded the minds of his fighters, looking at the increasing number of Groundhogs, Yang Ling did not dare be tardy. He instructed the Magical Beasts to tighten their formation, quickly forming a tight, circular defensive formation. After catching his breath, Yang Ling waved his hand and summoned the Burning Fire Elves, who had been training hard within the Wizard Pagoda’s Space.
There was an alarming number of Groundhogs. The outcome would be disastrous if he allowed them to separate the Magical Beast Army and defeat them on their own terms. The longer this drags on, the more of a disadvantage his group would be in. He had to gather the elites and surround the demoness to attack her so as to end the battle as fast as possible!
With the rapid improvement of his Wizard Power and Soul Energy, his control over the Magical Beast Army had become even more fluid even though he had not advanced to become a powerful Soul Wizard. He could now instantly send his orders to the deepest recesses of every Magical Beast’s soul. Under his command, the Magical Beasts in battle quickly got into formation, manically attacking the Groundhogs that were swarming over.
Under the command of the Tarantula King, a few thousand Red-haired Tarantulas dug into the ground, releasing wave after wave of Earth Spikes. The Evil Eyes occupied the center of the formation, focusing their attacks on the large group of Groundhogs swarming in from the entrance of the plaza. The Horned Bee Beasts and Vampire Bats were responsible for attacking the creatures charging toward them, providing the Red-haired Tarantula and Evil Eyes with aerial support and protection.
The spiders and Evil Eyes killed a large number of Groundhogs but paled in comparison to the devastation of the Burning Fire Elves that were natural Fire Element Spellcasters. Under the command of the Burning Fire Elf King, the Burning Fire Elves, who were in formation, joined forces and cast raging walls of fire. The Groundhogs that charged into the walls of fire were injured or killed in the blink of an eye, some even burned to ashes, falling onto the ground in troves!
The low-level Magical Beasts unleashed startling devastation, using their tightly knit formations to massacre the Groundhogs swarming toward them. The high-level Magical Beasts such as the Twin-legged Flying Dragons, Chimeras, and Dark Dragons focused their attacks on the high-level Groundhogs, not giving them any chance to save the demoness. As for the Dark Dragon King, Corpse Wizard King, and the rest of the group, they were both alarmed and furious after coming to their senses from the demoness’s terrifying Fantasy Domain, joining forces as they attacked the struggling demoness. Their attacks increased in intensity, each attack fiercer than the last!
The demoness was powerful, far more powerful than an average Level Surpassing Magical Beast, far more powerful than anyone could have imagined.
After training for tens of thousands of years and consuming a large number of Essence Crystals from high-level or even Level Surpassing Magical Beasts, she was just one step away from becoming a Divine-level Magical Beast. As long as she consumed a few more Essence Crystals of Level Surpassing Magical Beasts, it might not be too long before she becomes the first Divine-level Magical Beast in the history of the Ural Mountain Range.
As the nest of the Groundhogs, Mount Gya is heavily guarded with many caves of varying sizes littered a several-hundred-mile radius around the mountain. There were countless Groundhogs of various sizes, amongst them no lack of creatures that have advanced to become high-level Magical Beasts. The defenses of Mount Gya itself was even more impenetrable, with teams of Groundhogs patrolling the area. Even a Divine-level Expert might find it hard to infiltrate the mountain, much less get to the demoness herself.
Over the millennia, there had been countless humans and Level Surpassing Magical Beasts who have come to Mount Gya to challenge the authority of the demoness. However, only a rare few managed to get close to Mount Gya, much less kill the demoness. As a precaution, the demoness had instructed her army of Groundhogs to dig out a massive maze within Mount Gya, spending a great deal of effort on the nest she lived in. However, she did not expect to attract a wolf back into her lair, allowing Yang Ling to infiltrate the area successfully. She did not expect the other party to not only have abilities that were deep beyond comprehension but was also able to summon a terrifying Magical Beast Army instantly!

Even though she was barely holding on using her incredible speed and Wind Evasion, but faced with the attacks of the Dark Dragon King, Corpse Wizard King and the rest of the group, faced with Yang Ling’s terrifying soul attacks, she instantly became covered in wounds, blood flowing out of her injuries. More and more Groundhogs were coming to her aid, their cries deafening as they charged toward the Magical Beast Army without fear of death. However, they could not close the distance of several dozen steps, no matter how hard they tried. They were unable to break past the formation of the Magical Beast Army!
What do I do?
Her head was in intense pain after being hit by Yang Ling’s soul attacks and after the Dark Dragon King took advantage of that and left behind a deep gash on her body with his claw, the demoness Sala clenched her teeth in fury. It would not be too long before she could advance to become a Divine-level Magical Beast. When that time comes, even the strongest Level Surpassing Magical Beasts could only crawl and tremble under her feet. But she did not expect to face the combined attacks of a bunch of Level Surpassing Magical Beasts at the final stretch of her evolution. She was indignant. She was not going to die by the barrage of attacks of the other party!
“Core Explosion, go and die, go and die all of you!” After letting out a violent roar, the demoness did not mind expending the last of her Magical Energy, casting the Fantasy Domain once again and unleashing a million sharp Wind Daggers. On the surface, she looked furious as if she did not mind dying together with her enemies. However, her eyes rapidly glanced toward the eye of the steaming hot spring under the large crystal bed not far away.
There was a natural underwater cave that led to the underground river at the base of the mountain. As long as she successfully charges into the eye of the hot spring, she believed that the other party would not be able to find her no matter how powerful his abilities were. Because of the limited distance, she would be able to reach the eye of the spring in an instant. She felt much more confident in accomplishing that than fighting off her enemies and hiding within the maze!
Core Explosion?
Looking at the insane demoness unleashing her Wind Daggers, the group turned pale in shock, instinctively taking a few steps back. To a Magical Beast, Core Explosion was the final technique they could use to fight against an enemy, and it could instantly erupt with terrifying destructive capabilities. The abilities of the demoness were far stronger than an average Level Surpassing Magical Beast, how terrifying would the devastation be if she used Core Explosion in an attempt to perish together with the Magical Beast Army?
“Hahaha, I’ll be back, none of you are to run away!” Taking advantage of the instant the Dark Dragon King, Corpse Wizard King and the rest of the group were shocked, the demoness howled as she turned into a tiny golden Groundhog, jumping forward between the legs of the Giant Ape King straight toward the eye of the spring not far away.
As long as she managed to charge into the eye of the spring, she was confident that she would be able to avert the crisis. When that time comes, she would be able to gather all of the Groundhogs in the Ural Mountain Range and order them to tear Yang Ling and his Magical Beast Army into pieces!
Should I do something before I tear the leader of my enemies into pieces?
Thinking about Yang Ling’s calm smile and toned body, the demoness who had turned into a Groundhog let out a lewd smile. She had had her fill with ordinary hunters and average fighters. Meeting a man with a unique disposition like Yang Ling is a rare occurrence. It would be a waste if she did not play with him before she killed him!
“Hehe, you’re craftier than a fox, unfortunately… You are too slow when it comes to running away!”
The demoness was fast, her burst of speed leaving the Dark Dragon King and Purple Rat Little Ice in the dust. However, in front of Yang Ling who had mastered all five elements of the evasion techniques, she was still one step too slow. Without giving her time to react, a sharp dagger pierced into the injury on her stomach, rendering her numb in an instant. Her consciousness faded as she fell onto the large crystal bed. It was clear that the dagger had been smothered with a terrifying poison!
“You…”
After waking up from her lewd thoughts, the demoness forcefully opened her heavy eyelids. Seeing Yang Ling suddenly appear in front of her, then looking at the Blood Elf Dagger in her stomach absorbing the Blood Essence from her body like a bottomless hole, her heart sank. She did not expect to be this severely injured when she was just one step away from the eye of the spring. She did not expect that she would have to die helplessly on this large crystal bed where she had her fill of many men, living a promiscuous life!
Could this be my destiny?
Sensing that her life was fading away, the demoness thought back to an event that happened a long time ago in her daze, remembering the words a mysterious elder had once told her tens of thousands of years ago. Back then, he had warned her to not recklessly consume the Essence Crystals of various Magical Beasts. Otherwise, she might one day not be able to control her power and explode even if she managed to advance to become a Divine-level Magical Beast. Or she might be so lost in chasing after power that she loses herself, bringing upon a calamity to herself!
To think that the words of the mysterious elder had come true. She had attracted the terrifying nemesis that was Yang Ling before she evolved to become a Divine-level Magical Beast!
“Follow me, and you’ll receive boundless power, as well as a new life!”
Just as the demoness sensed that the last bits of her soul were about to disappear completely, her head trembled. A finger that seemed to be coated with fresh blood gently pressed down on the area between her brows. Following that, strange energy flowed into her body, circulating on a mysterious path. A large segment of a foreign memory, as well as a soul imprint that forces one to obey, suddenly appeared in her brain…
