Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons-Chapter 350 - 348 I am the Lion King, Remember That
Chapter 350 -348 I am the Lion King, Remember That
Compared to the dazzling appearance of this vestment robe, Shen Yi paid more attention to its practicality.
After a brief trial, the effect was surprisingly impressive.
He feared even his recently perfected Five Thunder Sword Technique of Heavenly Destruction couldn’t damage it in the slightest.
No wonder the Mysterious Light Cave had been so fixated on it.
The formidable strength of the Nanyang Sect could be inferred from this vestment robe alone.
It was uncertain whether others had obtained treasures of the same caliber, or even better ones.
...
This was a gift from a servant to a senior elder for his birthday, possessing such a powerful defense; what then could be in the elder’s cave dwelling…or even the Sect Master’s?
Moreover, why did the Nanyang Sect, with such treasures, leave behind only cave dwellings and not a single living cultivator?
Shen Yi grew increasingly curious.
If only he could pinpoint the location of the elder’s cave dwelling, most of his doubts would surely be dispelled.
“…”
The moment he stepped out of the small building, Shen Yi reverted to the tall and magnificent Golden Eyes Lion Emperor, albeit with the wound on his stomach fist-made instead of a sword injury.
He withdrew his Golden Body Dharma Identity and swept towards the outside of the cave dwelling.
As for the corpses of the Black Bear and the Silverback Gorilla Emperor, since demon blood had no other use at the moment beyond replenishing his energy, Shen Yi was not in a hurry to dispose of them and stored them in his Storage Treasure.
No sooner had he left the cave dwelling than he received a message from the Lion Emperor.
“Reporting to my lord, I have found one of the five herbs mentioned by the fox, but this is the territory of the Youwei Demon Emperor. What do you think?”
“I understand,” replied Shen Yi without changing his direction.
There was no such thing as the territory of the Youwei Demon Emperor. In the Thousand Demon Cave, it’s the size of one’s fists that determined territory.
What he needed to do now was to change the demons’ stereotypes about the Lion Emperor.
…
Clear Thunder Pool.
Thick thunder plasma churned tumultuously, and a sheep-like Qilin beast lazily made its way to the shore.
Its four hooves were all covered in purple scales.
Each step it took, there was an explosive sound beneath its feet.
Above a dip in the land loomed a massive Dark Jiao Dragon, staring down coldly, “Will you help me or not?”
“Help you?”
Thunder Hoof Demon Emperor found a rock to lie down on, “What’s in it for me?”
“Hiss!” Youwei Demon Emperor flicked its tail, “Retrieve my tailbone for me, and I will let you reside in my cave dwelling.”
“Hmm, I quite like it here,” said Thunder Hoof Demon Emperor, his eyes closed, showing little interest.
Seeing this, Youwei Demon Emperor circled impatiently in the air. It had come to confront Yu Chao’an from Wutong Mountain, and only by capturing him was there a chance to press him on the whereabouts of his allies.
Winning wasn’t difficult, but to capture him — and to do so without alarming the other cultivators of Wutong Mountain — required significant aid.
Unfortunately, Youwei Demon Emperor was used to being a loner and had poor relations with others.
The Demon Emperor it followed, one of the top ten of the cave dwellings, was currently hibernating, leaving it with no choice but to seek help from Thunder Hoof, another under the same Emperor’s command.
To its surprise, the latter showed such disdain.
“You…”
Just then, both Demon Emperors suddenly sensed something and looked up toward the dense forest above the crater.
Among the tall ancient trees, a figure marred with wounds approached slowly.
Upon recognizing the newcomer, Youwei Demon Emperor lost interest in the sight, for even in need of allies, it wouldn’t bother with a mere foolish demon at the early stage of Divinity Transformation.
Thunder Hoof Demon Emperor slightly lifted his eyelids, “How did it go?”
Shen Yi looked down calmly, “It’s settled.”
With that, he turned and began to walk away as if he had come solely to give the notice.
Witnessing this scene, Youwei Demon Emperor sneered and glanced at Thunder Hoof. Despite its reputation for being unsociable, it seemed this dead sheep couldn’t even hold down the Golden Eyes Lion, which was far worse than itself.
“…”
Thunderhoof Demon Emperor fell silent for a moment before finally standing up, “Stop.”
Shen Yi slowly halted his steps, looking back with a question, “What is it?”
Being gazed directly by those golden eyes without any attempt to hide made a cold light flash in Thunderhoof Demon Emperor’s eyes. It had already felt some anger since their last meeting, but it had not burst out at the time.
Time and again, over and over.

Did this lion think itself without temper?
“I want to ask you, where are Silverback and that Black Bear?”
“Dead.”
Shen Yi’s succinct reply left both Demon Emperors stunned for a moment. After a few breaths, they realized that the other party had no intention of further explanation.
That was it?
Thunderhoof Demon Emperor finally stood straight, his voice cold as he said, “You’d better give a reasonable explanation.”
Youwei Demon Emperor also temporarily forgot the matter of its tail, watching with interest.
It was only when that eight-zhang-tall lion finally took steps back towards the edge of the cliff.
With an unhurried squat, it opened its paw, and a severed head rolled down the cliff wall towards the depression below.
It rolled up to Thunderhoof Demon Emperor’s feet and was stopped by its hoof.
Once it saw the face clearly.
All four of its dark green eyes narrowed simultaneously, falling into silence: “…”
Youwei Demon Emperor, looking at the head and then at the lion at the edge of the cliff, also remained silent.
It might not recognize other cultivators.
But Zhang Xuanyan from Mysterious Light Cave had a small reputation within Thousand Demon Cave.
His cultivation might be a notch lower than theirs, but those precious tools all over his body were a headache for all demons. At least the Demon Emperors further than twenty caves out were no match for him.
And now, his head lay there quietly on the ground.
His face was filled with unbelievable terror.
As if he had seen something horrifying, his eyes remained wide open even in death.
“Do you have any more questions?”
Shen Yi crouched at the edge of the cliff, looking down indifferently at the other party.
Thunderhoof Demon Emperor stared at the ground under its hooves, taking a long while to slowly lift its head, “Being low-profile is never wrong.”
“Tsch.”
The robust Lion Demon bared its mouth, revealing sharp fangs and a sneering smile, “If the Emperor were to keep a lower profile, I fear more ‘siblings’ would wish to step into my cave abode.”
Having said that, the lion shook its paws and stood upright, walking off into the distance where it soon disappeared into the dense forest.
Bang!
In the instant the lion vanished, Thunderhoof Demon Emperor violently crushed the severed head beneath its hoof.
Fury surged within all four eyes.
“An upstart scum!”
Admittedly, after the other party had killed Zhang Xuanyan and was still able to stand here calmly, it already had the qualification to speak with it on equal terms.
Taking down this fiend would certainly come at a cost.
Though enraged, Thunderhoof Demon Emperor did not wish to end up in as wretched a state as the old Youwei Jiao Dragon over a mere war of words.
“From the sound of it, it seems you owe him a lot,” Youwei Demon Emperor mused.
“Inside Thousand Demon Cave, it has always been like this,” Thunderhoof Demon Emperor snorted coldly, pacing towards the Thunder Plasma.
“Do you agree to help me or not?” Youwei rose into the air once more.
Drinking the Thunder Plasma, Thunderhoof Demon Emperor could not be bothered to lift its head, “Get lost!”
“…”
Youwei Demon Emperor gave it a deep glance before turning and soaring away.
Speaking of others, was this dead sheep not the same? Before it lost its tailbone, would it dare be so presumptuous borrowing several guts?
