The Six-Armed Demon belonged to the undying species.
Legend had it that the undying species were formed after the deceased drank from the Fountain of Immortality.
They were called the undying species not because they could not be killed, but because they had a long lifespan.
In this world, most of the humans who were below transcendent had 360 columns on their Life Chart. Each column represented one year of life. Even if all the gray columns were reactivated, the most they could live was 720 years old. Even gold-level humans were no exception unless they leveled up to transcendent.
Besides humans, most of the monsters below transcendent could not live for more than 1,000 years.
However, the undying species were different. If they were not killed, they could easily live for thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years. They could live longer than most of the monsters.
The Union Government's Species Research Institute had captured hundreds of different undying species for research. They found that they could wander in a room that was less than ten square meters for hundreds of years without being stimulated by the outside world. They did not need to consume any food, not even a drop of water. It was as if the meaning of their existence was to wander in the same area until their lifespan was completely exhausted.
The Six-Armed Demon was the same as the other undying species. They wandered in the area that was less than 300 square kilometers in Wangyou Forest all year round. It was as if the souls of the dead could not rest in peace on this piece of land, so they wandered back and forth.
The area where the Six-Armed Demon gathered had a clear boundary.
In this area, the land was scorched black. There were no flowers or grass on the ground. There were many dried rotten wood, but none of the trees were alive. It was a stark contrast to the rest of the forest.
These strange signs were the signs of the undying species appearing frequently. Almost all the undying species would absorb the life force of the creatures around them at an extremely slow speed. It was not obvious for a short period of time. However, as time passed, the ground would be barren and the trees would wither.
It was around 7: 30 p.m. and the sky was completely dark.
Lin Huang stood under a big tree outside the boundary. He hid his body behind the tree trunk and peeked at the scorched land.
Within his sight, there were three Six-Armed Demons in red robes wandering slowly as if they were patrolling the territory of their tribe.
Lin Huang did not act rashly. He chose to wait patiently.
Alarming three of these monsters at once was obviously not a wise move. In a head-on battle, the Six-Armed Demon's combat power was not much weaker than Bai's. When the three of them attacked together, he could only choose to flee. Otherwise, he would lose his life here.
On the black scorched earth, the three Six-Armed Demons floated eerily with their red skirts less than twenty centimeters off the ground. Their speed was even slower than an ordinary person's post-meal stroll, and they looked very leisurely.
It was Lin Huang's first time encountering such a ghost-like monster, and he felt a little panicked. Because this thing looked too much like the female ghost that he had seen in the movies when he was young.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, two of the Six-Armed Demons finally disappeared from his sight. Only one was left, and it was still slowly wandering in his direction.
"Xiao Hei, help me reconnect my Life Wheel to Bai!" Lin Huang immediately said to Xiao Hei. His Life Wheel was left with the last three gray columns, and he had to let Bai kill one of the monsters first so that his Life Wheel would be filled to the brim.
"Reconnected!"
Hearing Xiao Hei's notification, Lin Huang turned around and whispered to Bai, "I'll rush out later. The Six-Armed Demon will definitely focus its attention on me, and you'll take the opportunity to kill it. Remember, you must break the mask on its face! "
As soon as Lin Huang finished speaking, the Six-Armed Demon was less than ten meters away from the tree that he was hiding in.
Lin Huang jumped out from the right side of the tree and waved at the Six-Armed Demon, "Hey pretty, come and catch me. If you catch me, I'll let you … hehehe …"
As soon as Lin Huang finished speaking, the Six-Armed Demon that was initially moving slowly suddenly became like a ghost, and it pounced towards him.
"Damn, it's so fast!" It was so fast that Lin Huang was shocked.
Six crystal-clear arms were coming at Lin Huang like sharp blades. If the attack landed, Lin Huang's body would be sliced into pieces.
"Bai, do it now!" Lin Huang shouted. He rolled to the side, and the Six-Armed Demon missed its attack.
Almost at the same time, a golden glow lit up in the night sky. A crimson-gold spike that looked like a spear pierced through the middle of the Six-Armed Demon's mask, and came out from the back of its head. The other end of the spike was connected to Bai's back. Ever since Lin Huang used the Flawless Card on Bai, his Blood Power had turned from red to crimson-gold, and it was much sharper than before.
The Six-Armed Demon's movement suddenly stopped, and not a single drop of blood flowed out. The mask on its face was broken into pieces, and its red dress and six arms were disintegrating. Soon, only a head of black hair was left on the ground.
Seeing that the Six-Armed Demon was dead, Lin Huang got up from the ground and patted the dirt off his body. At the same time, the Life Wheel in his body started to move.
The last three gray columns were like ice that had been splashed with boiling water. They started to melt rapidly and were filled with white Life Light.
Finally, Lin Huang's 360 columns were filled with white Life Light.
"My Life Light is finally full. I just need to kill another Six-Armed Demon and I'll be able to complete the Life Light Baptism, obtain the Life Seed, and level up to iron-level!" Lin Huang was excited as he thought about it.
"Let's go. Let's walk along the edge of this area and see if there's any Six-Armed Demon that's alone!" Lin Huang said to Bai, and both of them left the place where the fight had happened.
Perhaps it was because it was the Six-Armed Demon's territory, Lin Huang and Bai did not encounter any other monsters as they walked along the edge of the scorched land.
After walking for about five to six kilometers, Lin Huang saw a few Six-Armed Demons gathered together. Each time, there were more than five to six of them, and it was impossible for him to fight them.
"I don't believe that I won't find any Six-Armed Demon that's alone if I walk around your territory!" Lin Huang asked Bai to lead the way as they continued to walk.
After spending a few hours walking around the edge of the scorched land, Lin Huang finally saw two Six-Armed Demons that were alone under a dead tree.
However, one of the Six-Armed Demon's dress was a little strange. It was not a bright red, but a faint purple.
"Could it be a mutated monster?" Lin Huang secretly observed the Six-Armed Demon in the purple dress. He was hesitant to attack it.
The Six-Armed Demon in the purple dress was spacing out under the dead tree while the one in the red dress was wandering less than ten meters behind it. It seemed like it was guarding it.
Lin Huang waited for more than ten minutes. The two Six-Armed Demons were still in the same position. The one in the purple dress was still spacing out while the one in the red dress was still guarding it.
After hesitating for a while, Lin Huang finally made a decision. "Forget it. I'll kill the one that's guarding it as soon as possible and then kill the one that's spacing out."
The reason why Lin Huang made such a risky decision was that he had studied the Six-Armed Demon's habits. This monster did not have vocal cords, so it could not warn its companions. Moreover, they would attack as soon as they discovered an enemy. They would not consider cooperating with their companions. What Lin Huang wanted to do was to kill the guard before the mutated Six-Armed Demon could react. This way, he could avoid being attacked by two Six-Armed Demons at the same time.
After making up his mind, Lin Huang whispered into Bai's ear, "I'll lure the guard here later. Destroy its mask as soon as possible and kill it. Then, use your Blood Power to lock the other Six-Armed Demon in the purple dress for me to kill."
After saying that, Lin Huang walked out of the forest and waved at the Six-Armed Demon that was guarding it. The guard noticed Lin Huang immediately and dashed towards him.
At this moment, the Six-Armed Demon in the purple dress suddenly turned its head. Its head turned 180 degrees and its body that was originally facing away from Lin Huang was now facing him. On the strange white mask, a pair of bloody eyes slowly opened and stared at Lin Huang.
