Chapter 212

In an open valley of the Evil Demon Ridge.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Numerous golden-spotted lions with blood-red eyes fought against the group of youths with all their might. Dust flew everywhere as they fought with all their might.

There were fifteen or sixteen golden lions at the Acquired stage in the pride.

Among them, the largest golden-spotted lion had a gold pattern on its forehead, vaguely showing the word "King". It was the Lion King of the Connate stage.

Every time the lion king roared, it was accompanied by a fierce and violent golden aura that swept across a radius of forty or fifty feet.

If an ordinary person was involved in it, they would be torn to pieces.

However, at this moment.

The powerful lion king was being suppressed by a man and a woman with two swords.

The man and woman were He Qiuyun and Ye Luofeng.

He Qiuyun held an ancient and gorgeous sword in her hand, and she slashed out with a sword light that was dazzling like the stars, emitting a vast aura.

Ye Luofeng held the white jade sword in her hand and slashed out a series of icy sword lights that piled up into a frosty sword rainbow.

In terms of offense.

The ancient sword in He Qiuyun's hand, regardless of its quality or inheritance, made its power more powerful than Ye Luofeng's.

Every time she attacked, a bloody mark would be left on the surface of the lion king's body.

In fact.

He Qiuyun alone was able to fight the lion king, and with Ye Luofeng, they could suppress it.

On the other side.

Chen Yu, the black-robed puppet master, and the other members of the three teams dealt with the remaining golden lions at the Acquired stage.

Whoosh ~ Puff!

Those golden lions at the Acquired stage died one by one.

The black-robed puppet master controlled the giant scorpion puppet at the Connate stage and two or three puppets at the Acquired stage to slaughter the demon corpses.

Similarly, Chen Yu was not at all inferior.

With the Dark Snake Sword in hand, he flashed past a few Golden Lions.

Puff! Puff!

Every time the Dark Snake Sword passed by a lion at the Acquired stage, it would kill.

Plop! Plop!

After being poisoned, the golden lions could only hold on for two or three breaths before dying.

"So fast!"

In the Fu family's team, Fu Jing, Fu Hong, and the others were helping Chen Yu harvest the demon nuclei.

Soon.

There were only four or five remaining Acquired stage demon beasts.

Facing the joint forces of the three teams, the Houtian lions' advantage in numbers was gone.

Even the strongest Lion King had been suppressed by He Qiuyun and Ye Luofeng.

"There are still four or five left!"

Chen Yu and the black-robed puppet master of the Wu Family exchanged glances and snorted coldly.

The previous massacre.

Chen Yu and the black-robed puppeteer were basically on par.

Even though a puppeteer had many puppets, their efficiency in killing enemies was far inferior to Chen Yu, who had accumulated energy in his heart and wielded a poisoned sword.

"Go!"

The black-cloaked puppeteer coldly snorted and ordered the giant scorpion puppet and the three Postnatal puppets to attack the remaining Postnatal Lions.

Meanwhile.

He purposely controlled a few ordinary puppets to cooperate with He Dabao and the others to block Chen Yu's path.

Before this.

Chen Yu was able to kill the enemy so quickly, relying on his powerful physique and speed, he quickly confronted Golden Lion in close combat.

If he couldn't get close, then the powerful poison sword would be useless.

But this time, Chen Yu didn't get close.

"Get ready!"

With a slight smile, he transmitted his voice to the Fu Family's team.

As soon as his voice fell.

There were three javelins in front of him.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Like a giant bow, Chen Yu instantly shot out three black javelins that exuded a murderous aura.

"Oh no!"

The black-cloaked puppeteer, He Dabao and the others were shocked.

The speed of the puppets' attacks couldn't compare to the speed of the javelins.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

The three Golden Lions were pierced by the javelins. Blood spurted out and their bodies were sent flying.

As soon as the bodies fell to the ground.

The Fu Family's team was well prepared and went forward to take out the Demon Cores.

So.

Three of the remaining five Postnatal Golden Lions were in the hands of the Fu Family, which was equivalent to three-fifths of the total.

One had to know.

The Fu Family, Chu Family and Wu Family's teams were participating.

Even if the remaining two Golden Lions were in the hands of the black-cloaked puppeteer, the Fu Family's team had half of the total number of Postnatal Golden Lions.

The Wu Family had thirty to forty percent and the Chu Family had more than ten percent.

Now.

The key was the remaining Connate Level Golden Lion King.

The Demon Core of the Golden Lion King was equivalent to a dozen ordinary Demon Cores.

Chen Yu glanced at the Golden Lion King.

The Golden Lion King was already an arrow at the end of its flight. Its attacks were getting weaker and it was covered in wounds.

As long as Ye Luofeng and He Qiuyu launched their attacks, they would be able to kill the Golden Lion King. However, they didn't do it right away.

It wasn't difficult to kill the Golden Lion King.

The difficult part was to fight for the Connate Demon Core.

"Get the Demon Core!"

The black-cloaked puppeteer turned into a shadow and dashed toward the Golden Lion King.

Chen Yu was about to move.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The two spider puppets shot out a few strands of spider silk towards his body.

Chen Yu sneered. Two Houtian puppets with average combat power could not stop him.

"Stay here!"

Suddenly, a cold shout came from the side.

He Dabao tossed out three gray beads.

Boom!

A large amount of gray flames covered Chen Yu's body.

"Hehe, this is the Corpse Fire Bead. Flesh and blood will be corroded and turned into a puddle of liquid."

He Dabao said with a cold smile.

In fact.

He only had low quality Corpse Fire Beads, but each one could threaten a Acquired Level cultivator.

With three of them, anyone below the Connate Level wouldn't be able to survive.

"This kid attacked a contestant in the Hunting Meet!"

Fu Yangzi said angrily in the pavilion of the Fu family.

People could compete for Demon Cores in the Hunting Meet, but they couldn't kill each other.

In the pavilion of the Wu family.

"Tsk tsk, He Dabao is trying to stop Chen Yu from getting the Demon Cores, but he's a bit too aggressive."

The bald middle-aged man, Wu Tianxiao, said with a smile.

"This person is disqualified from the Hunting Meet."

An indifferent voice came from the pavilion of the Marquis's Mansion.

The speaker was Marquis Yunlai!

No one objected to Marquis Yunlai's decision.

Wu Tianxiao from the Wu family didn't care.

Before He Dabao joined the Wu family, he had said that he would attack Chen Yu at all costs.

Now.

As long as he killed Chen Yu, the puppet master from the Wu family would have a high chance of getting the Golden Lion King's Demon Core.

But at this moment, the scene on the screen suddenly changed.

Roar!

A thunderous lion-like roar, accompanied by a roaring sound wave whirlwind, blew away the large area of gray flames.

Whoosh!

The gray flames turned around and pounced towards He Dabao.

"Not good!"

He Dabao's expression changed.

He knew the power of the Corpse Fire Bead. If he was hit, he would die.

However.

He was just about to dodge when he heard a thunderous roar.

"Boom!"

His body stiffened, his blood churned, and he almost vomited blood.

In the next second.

He was engulfed by the grey flames and let out a miserable shriek.

In less than two breaths.

He Dabao's body quickly burned and turned into a puddle of stinking liquid.

This scene sent chills down the spines of the geniuses from the other teams.

"You reap what you sow!"

Chen Yu sneered without the slightest hint of pity.

Even his Bronze Statue Art couldn't withstand the power of the three Corpse Fire Plants.

At the crucial moment.

Only by circulating the Black Emperor's bloodline and Yuansha Qi and activating the beastskin armor's defense did Chen Yu manage to avoid damage.

Then.

He had an idea and counterattacked with the Bronze Lion Roar.

That was why He Dabao was killed by his own Corpse Fire Bead.

"Lord Wang Hou, Chen Yu killed someone on purpose. He should be kicked out of the competition and punished severely."

In the Wu family's pavilion, Wu Tianxiao was enraged and stood up.

He didn't stand up for He Dabao's death.

After all, He Dabao killed someone on purpose and was already kicked out.

Wu Tianxiao wanted to kick Chen Yu out as well.

"Brother Wu, didn't you see that He Dabao wanted to kill someone on purpose and was killed by his own Corpse Fire Plant? He asked for it."

Marquis Yunlai said calmly.

"But, he did kill someone …"

Wu Tianxiao tried to defend himself.

"Senior Wu, the rule of the Hunting Contest is that the one who killed someone on purpose will take full responsibility. That Chen Yu, on the other hand, killed in self-defense … "

A middle-aged Connate Cultivator from the Marquis Palace explained.

Wu Tianxiao was speechless.

After all, He Dabao was the one who killed someone.

He was also killed by his own Corpse Fire Bead, so Marquis Yunlai said that he asked for it.

In the valley.

He Dabao's death didn't affect the fight for the Golden Lion King's Demonic Core.

Ye Luofeng, He Qiuyun, and the black-robed puppet master, the three top geniuses, started fighting.

The Golden Lion King whimpered and died under the combined attack of the three.

"Hehe!"

The black-robed puppet master snickered and shot out dozens of cold needles from his metal arm. Shoo!

Shoo! Shoo!

Shoo! Shoo! The needles shot towards Ye Luofeng and He Qiuyun at the same time.

The two's expressions changed and they waved their swords to deflect the needles.

He Qiuyun cursed in her mind. They had an agreement to fight against the Fu Family for the Connate Demonic Core.

Crack!

The other metal arm of the black-robed puppeteer shot out a purple iron claw that was as fast as lightning.

The claw grabbed the Golden Lion's body and moved closer to the black-robed puppet master.

"Don't even think about it!"

Ye Luofeng and He Qiuyun both swung their swords. Ding!

Ding! Clang!

Sparks flew everywhere. A giant scorpion puppet had long since been on guard and blocked the two's attacks.

Two sword marks appeared on the surface of the giant scorpion puppet, but it bought its master some time.

In the blink of an eye.

The Golden Lion's body fell onto the black-robed puppet master.

At this moment.

A strong gust of wind came from behind, accompanied by a roar of viciousness.

"He Dabao is an idiot!"

The black-robed puppet master felt a heavy pressure.

He thought that even if He Dabao's three Corpse Fire Beads couldn't kill Chen Yu, they could at least stall him for a few seconds.

"Viciousness Transformation!"

A huge light black python aura was covered in a layer of black mist. It was vivid and lifelike. With a fierce evil wind, it covered the puppet master in the black robe from behind.

This time.

Chen Yu's Viciousness Transformation merged with the black True Qi at the core of the Sea of Qi and its power surged.

Bang!

The black-robed puppet master grunted and his body was pushed back a few feet.

Chen Yu was a bit surprised. The Viciousness Transformation with the mysterious black True Qi was enough to threaten a Connate Cultivator, but it seemed to have hit a thick metal wall.

The puppeteer's body had probably been strengthened and modified.

Swish!

Without hesitation, he dashed to the Golden Lion King's body.

At the same time.

Chen Yu raised his hand and the sword and shield puppet appeared, blocking the giant scorpion puppet's counterattack.

Although the sword and shield puppet wasn't as powerful as the scorpion puppet, its defense was comparable to a Connate Cultivator, so it only took a few steps back.

"This puppet!"

The black-robed puppet master swallowed a mouthful of blood and looked at the sword and shield puppet in front of Chen Yu.

He looked at it.

His face suddenly became serious and there was a hint of excitement in his eyes. He seemed to have figured out the origin of the puppet.

At this moment.

Poof!

After scanning the Golden Lion King's corpse with his spiritual sense, Chen Yu stabbed his greatsword into the Golden Lion King's corpse, accurately picking out a demon core.
