Although an Essence Spirit could travel thousands of kilometers in the blink of an eye after leaving the body, the moment it was severely injured, it would die without any chance of recovery!
In the blink of an eye, two mid-level fiend demons died here!
The three mid-level fiend demons must not have expected that the two Territorial Lords of Howling Moon Mountain would be able to discover their tracks as well!
More than that, they did not expect that the two Territorial Lords would be decisive in killing and possess Essence Spirit secret skills. The moment they attacked, they destroyed two Essence Spirits!
Su Zimo was secretly shocked when he witnessed everything.
Thankfully, he was here to investigate and knew what was going on.
Otherwise, he would have suffered a huge setback if he were to fight against the two Territorial Lords rashly!
Although they were both mid-level fiend demons, the young master of Black Sand Ridge was much weaker than the two Territorial Lords of Howling Moon Mountain.
A huge battle ended in the blink of an eye.
Black Wolf and Chan Ruyi seemed to have lost the mood to cultivate. Both of them were speechless with a hint of worry in their eyes.
Su Zimo was puzzled.
The two of them had clearly obtained a huge victory but why did it seem like they had lost instead?
When he recalled the mid-level fiend demon's words when he escaped, it seemed like things were not as simple as they seemed.
Black Wolf said with a grim expression, "Cyclone Cave can't wait any longer and sent three mid-level fiend demons to spy on us. Thankfully, I discovered their tracks beforehand. If they were to strike first, both of our lives would be in danger! "
"Actually, the Territorial Lords of Cyclone Cave are still wary of us. Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent someone to spy on us," Chan Ruyi deduced.
Black Wolf shook his head. "If it's just Cyclone Cave, we might be able to fight them. However, that's not the only danger of Howling Moon Mountain! "
"There's also Black Sand Ridge and Ghastly River," Chan Ruyi added.
"That's right,"
Black Wolf sighed gently. "All three territories are targeting us. I'm afraid Howling Moon Mountain won't be able to survive this ordeal. What I'm most worried about is the three territories joining forces! "
Chan Ruyi was silent with a heavy heart.
At that point, Su Zimo had already obtained quite a bit of useful information.
Seeing that the two Suzerains were uneasy, he thought that this was a rare opportunity. Thus, he carefully retreated and quietly left the area.
Not long after Su Zimo left, Hei Lang suddenly frowned and muttered, "Just now, other than the three people from Violent Wind Cave, there seemed to be someone spying nearby."
"Ah?"
Chan Ruyi was stunned.
Hei Lang said, "That feeling is intermittent. I can't say for sure."
"Could it be someone from Black Sand Ridge?" Chan Ruyi asked.
"That's unlikely."
Black Wolf shook his head. "During this period of time, the fiend demons of Black Sand Ridge have been searching for the whereabouts of a mysterious group of people. They shouldn't be here."
"I've also heard of that matter. It's said that the physical body of the Young Master of the Black Sand Ridge was destroyed and he nearly died."
Chan Ruyi chuckled and said, "But if it's not Black Sand Ridge, who could it be? Could it be … "
Chan Ruyi suddenly paused and looked at Black Wolf subconsciously.
Their gazes met in midair and Chan Ruyi's heart skipped a beat as she asked sternly, "That person from Ghastly River?"
"That should be it,"
Hei Lang nodded and said, "I'm afraid only that person from the Ghastly River can silently sneak up on us and come and go without a trace."
"This is truly troublesome,"
Chan Ruyi sighed.
…
Su Zimo had left a long time ago and naturally did not know that the two Territorial Lords of Howling Moon Mountain had imagined him to be someone else.
At that moment, Su Zimo was in midair, shuttling through the clouds and looking down at the territory of Howling Moon Mountain. He checked out the terrain and listened to the sounds around him.
All of a sudden!
Su Zimo paused in midair and listened attentively for a moment. His lips curled into a fake smile and a strange look flashed through his eyes.
If his spirit consciousness were to extend through the ground beneath him, he would be able to clearly sense that the ground was not solid.
Instead, it was connected in all directions with countless paths intersecting, forming caves that were filled with demonic qi. Eventually, they gathered at a rather massive palace.
The palace was golden and made entirely out of gold, shimmering with a rustic aura.
Countless rats were bustling around the palace in a joyous manner.
Some of them huffed and puffed as they carried wine.
Some of them were slaughtering chickens and cows.
Ordinary wild beasts such as chickens and cows naturally had no resistance against rats that had already gained sentience and cultivated into demons.
The palace was even livelier. Some of the rats transformed into women and shuttled through the banquet, placing rare fruits and delicacies one after another.
At the top of the palace, a chubby man sat in the middle with a golden crown on his head.
Although he did not have any demonic qi on him, he had a shifty look and was extremely wretched.
Beside the rat-eyed fatty, there were two delicate women who were massaging his legs and back in a joyous manner!
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Below, a rat demon stood up and raised his cup in congratulations.
This rat demon had transformed into a human form. He could stand on his two feet and wore clothes like a human, but there was a long tail behind him.
This was a Jin Dan realm spirit demon.
The rat demon declared loudly, "Your Majesty is the first of the Howling Moon Mountain rat race to cultivate into a fiend demon. The prosperity of our race is just around the corner!"
"That's right. Your Majesty is extremely talented and managed to cultivate into a fiend demon in less than a month after returning from the ancient battlefield. Impressive!"
Some of the rat demons chimed in.
"Hahahaha!"
The rat-eyed fatty at the top of the palace roared in laughter and his eyes were almost squeezed out. He raised his cup and drank to his heart's content. "Everyone, drink to your heart's content!"
"Tsk, tsk. Rat King, how impressive."
At that instant, a mocking voice suddenly appeared beside the rat-eyed man's ears.
The voice was neither loud nor soft. Apart from the rat-eyed fatty, no one else heard it in the noisy palace.
"Hmm? Who is it? "
The rat-eyed fatty was shocked.
Someone had approached him without him noticing at all?
The rat-eyed fatty's glabella shone without batting an eyelid as he released his spirit consciousness towards the source of the voice.
His spirit consciousness extended over and a thumb-sized figure stood in a corner behind him. It had shoulder-length scarlet hair and was covered in scales, obscuring its appearance.
"Psst!"
The Rat King gasped and his expression changed in shock. Instantly, he broke out in cold sweat and his wrist trembled, causing more than half of the wine in his cup to spill!
Although he did not know who the intruder was, he knew that this was a technique that only mid-level fiend demons could release – the Essence Spirit projection!
"Don't make a fuss. Follow me."
The scarlet-haired Essence Spirit's voice was cold and emotionless as it vanished into the darkness in a flash.
The rat-eyed fatty lamented internally.
The only Territorial Lords of Howling Moon Mountain who could release their Essence Spirits were the Territorial Lords and Vice Territorial Lords.
However, he knew that the Essence Spirits of the Territorial Lords and Vice Territorial Lords were definitely not as such.
In other words, the intruder was not a mid-level fiend demon of Howling Moon Mountain!
He would most likely be doomed if he were to head over.
However, if he did not follow along, that Essence Spirit alone was enough to kill him!
If he implicated his clansmen here, he would not be able to atone for it even with a hundred deaths.
At that thought, the rat-eyed fatty squeezed out a smile with a bitter expression and pushed away the two women beside him. His heart was stirring as he declared loudly, "Everyone, please continue. I-I can't handle the alcohol and will make a move first!"
