How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 183 - 180 The Bone Demon King Emerges
Chapter 183: Chapter 180: The Bone Demon King Emerges Chapter 183 -180: The Bone Demon King Emerges Preliminary attempt.
Junior Brother Chen concluded, “The defense of the Copper Statue Gang Body is more than twice as strong as when he achieved ‘Copper Bone Mastery’ at the entry-level stage!”
Afterward, ordinary attacks from those in the Postnatal Qi Transformation stage could hardly injure him.
That’s not all!
The “Copper Statue Gang Body” was no longer merely a defensive tool, the Copper Statue Force Field it generated could rebound various attacks.
Simply put.
Even if Junior Brother Chen stood still and didn’t move, his enemy’s attack could be rebounded and cause them injury.
Of course.
This rebounding effect had certain conditions and limitations:
The most important limitation was distance, only close-range attacks could be rebounded back onto the opponent.
Because.
The force field formed by the Copper Statue Gang Body was essentially refined from the pure physical strength of the body, not the energies of inner breath or True Qi.
This physical strength only attached to the surface of the body.
“If it’s a close-range attack from someone below the Qi Transformation Realm, they’ll likely be shocked and thrown back, spitting blood from my ‘Copper Statue Gang Body’.”
Chen Yu barely cracked a smile.
In subsequent attempts.
He tested the strength of the “Copper Statue Gang Body” and found that, while the power had nearly doubled, the attack power significantly exceeded twice that amount due to the formation of the Copper Statue Force Field.
At this time.
Without using inner breath or True Qi and relying solely on the “Copper Statue Technique,” Chen Yu could contend with ordinary Postnatal early and mid-stage practitioners.
Being promoted to the Copper Statue Gang Body was of great significance to Chen Yu.
It meant that in the domain of Body Cultivation, he had stepped into a level comparable to the Qi Transformation Realm.
Previously.
Although Chen Yu could fight with those in the Postnatal Qi Transformation stage, after all, he had very little “Cloud Evil True Qi,” and he also needed to save the use of the Black Emperor’s bloodline, which was a significant constraint.
If he encountered a powerful Qi Transformation Realm opponent and got into a drawn-out battle, he’d be in trouble.
But now.
Chen Yu was confident that if he encountered the two Postnatal Stage cultivators from the Water Moon Sect again, he would have a great chance of winning without needing the help of the little bug or the puppet.
…
Not long after Chen Yu was promoted to the “Copper Statue Gang Body,” the war within the sects of Chu Country reached a historical turning point.
Three days later.
A member of the Yunyue Sect descended hastily on a flying bird at Tieling Mine.
“The front line is at a disadvantage!”
“The Iron Sword Sect and our side have collapsed, the main forces are retreating, tightening the defensive line…”
This member of the Yunyue Sect reported the news to Chen Yu, who was in charge of the defense.
“Defeated?
Didn’t the reinforcement from the Lingjian Sect arrive?”
Chen Yu said in surprise.
“Indeed, the Lingjian Sect did send a lot of reinforcements, even on a scale not inferior to that of fifty years ago.”
“It’s just that the Bone Demon Palace was well-prepared this time, resurrecting the original ‘Bone Demon King’ regarded as taboo by the palace, securing a victory in one fell swoop.”
This Yunyue Sect member looked terrified.
“The Bone Demon King?”
Chen Yu’s heart trembled.
As a member of the Chu Country Sect realm, he had heard rumors about the original “Bone Demon King.”
Legend had it that this being was a foreign demon subdued by the supreme divine skills of the founder of the Bone Demon Palace.
This demon possessed extraordinary power, almost able to fight on par with the supreme beings of the Sky Sea Realm at its peak.
Later, something unknown happened, and the original Bone Demon King lashed back, bringing disaster to the Bone Demon Palace.
After severe losses, the Bone Demon Palace sealed away the original Bone Demon King, forcing it into a deep slumber and gradually being forgotten by the world, becoming a legend.
“Did the Sect give any instructions regarding the Tieling Mine?”
Chen Yu’s face was solemn.
“Intensify defenses!”
Leaving those last four words, the messenger rode the flying bird away.
From that day on.
The whole Tieling Mine was plunged into a solemn and serious atmosphere.
Chen Yu mobilized the only thirty-some members in the mine to strengthen vigilance day and night.
Even he himself didn’t dare to focus solely on cultivation but also released the Iron Moon Strange Insect to patrol and scout the nearby area.
Within a few days.
Tieling Mine welcomed several wounded; all were members of the Yunyue Sect who had retreated and evacuated from the battlefield.
These defeated and injured soldiers’ cultivation levels ranged from the Meridian Passage Stage to the Postnatal Qi Transformation Stage.
“Junior Brother Chen!”
A young man in a blood-soaked black robe staggered and struggled to find Chen Yu.
“Senior Brother Chang!”
Chen Yu was shocked to see his senior brother, Chang Xuan.
Chang Xuan was also one of the wounded who had retreated from the front lines, and he seemed to be seriously injured.
“Junior Brother Chen, if it hadn’t been for the ‘Heavenly Bamboo Shoot Liquid’ you gave me, I would likely have died at the hands of the Bone Demon Palace and the Water Moon Sect’s pursuit.”
Chang Xuan said bitter-sweetly.
Seeing him sway, Chen Yu quickly supported him.
“Senior Brother Chang, you should focus on healing your wounds first, and we can talk about everything else later.”
“No!
Junior Brother Chen, I especially came to find you to complete the mission entrusted by our Master.”
Chang Xuan took several items out of his storage bag.
They were four radiant and crystal-clear Primordial Stones and a small black jar filled with a clump of sticky black substance.
“Grade Essence Stones!”
Chen Yu instantly understood and quickly took the two items.
These were obviously arranged by Elder Mao to enable Chen Yu to use the ancient Transmission Array.
Next.
Chang Xuan briefly explained the battle situation at the front lines.
“Total defeat!”
“Our Sect’s Supreme Elder Gongyang was heavily injured by a blow from the ‘Bone Demon King.’ Our Sect Master also sustained injuries in the fight, teamed up on by Guardian Shangguan and others…”
Chang Xuan’s face was filled with bitterness.
He was entrusted by Elder Mao to deliver the items to Chen Yu after the defeat.
During his retreat, he was pursued by the forces of the Bone Demon Palace.
“Looking at the situation, it’s very likely that the Bone Demon Palace’s forces will make their way near Tieling Mine.”
Chen Yu took a deep breath, his expression grave.
With the limited number of soldiers and the injured at Tieling Mine, facing the Bone Demon Palace’s large force would be like throwing eggs against rocks.
The development of the situation closely aligned with Chen Yu’s predictions.
Perhaps it was even worse.
The next day.
“Junior Brother Chen!
Ten miles out, a large troop approaches, seemingly in battle formation.”
Fang Haofei rushed to say.
“I’ll go take a look!”
Chen Yu’s face tightened as he hastened to the observation deck on the peak of Tieling Mine.
Boom!
As soon as he stepped onto the observation deck, Chen Yu faintly felt the nearby mountains tremble slightly, and a vast cloud of dust arose in the distance.
“That is…”
Chen Yu looked towards the distance, his face filled with shock.
Standing aloft, with his vision surpassing that of ordinary people, he witnessed a scene of conflict within the dusty area.
To describe it as a “conflict” was not quite appropriate.
More precisely, it was a massacre.

The fleeing party consisted of hundreds of people, among whom Chen Yu barely caught sight of some familiar figures.
“Could it be that heaven intends to doom our Yunyue Sect?”
The Yunyue Sect Master, clad in blue robes, his face stricken, floated down atop a mountain peak, his body emitting circles of faint blue True Qi crackling with electric arcs.
Near him,
There were Elder Nangong, Elder Mao, Fairy Xia Yu, and other high-ranking members of the Qi Transformation Realm.
The Yunyue Sect, numbering several hundred members, from elders in the Qi Transformation Innate to those in the lowest echelons of the Meridian Passage Stage, were all in a pathetic flight, most wounded.
“Whoosh-boom!”
A giant skeleton king, wreathed in roiling black Qi and three stories tall, rolled forth with a dark, windy Demonic Qi, like a black tornado sweeping in.
“Run!”
The Yunyue Sect Master and several Qi Transformation Realm elders hastily retreated.
Boom-bang!
The mountain peak where everyone had just stood shattered instantly, flattening under the onslaught of the skeleton king.
“Ah ah ah…”
Screams rose sharply, only to be buried by the collapsing mountain and the dust.
In one blow, the mountain was leveled.
In an instant, the Yunyue Sect lost forty or fifty of its elite, including not only those in Meridian Passage and Organ Refining but also some in the Qi Transformation Realm who were killed in a mere second.
Hmm~
Within the intense black Qi of the Bone Demon King, layers of purple blood flames swirled, its body wrapped in dark, clanking chains.
In a flash,
The colossal skeletal body expanded once again, growing to the height of six or seven stories with lantern-size crimson flames flickering in its eye sockets.
Members of the Yunyue Sect appeared no larger than bugs before it.
“Swoosh!”
A massive shadow of black Qi flashed in mid-air, and the Demonic Qi howled like a mountain bearing down upon them.
With a swiftness likened to a giant python, the enormous bony hand swept out.
“Ah!”
A scream echoed as a white-bearded elder was captured in the hand of the Bone Demon King.
The white-bearded elder erupted in a dazzling display of Innate True Qi, which then abruptly dimmed.
With a “crack,”
The Qi Transformation Innate white-bearded elder, like a small bug, was snapped in half by the Bone Demon King.
“No!
Grandfather—”
Within the fleeing crowd, Nangong Li, clad in white, shook and nearly passed out.
The man who died was Elder Nangong!
“Nangong Li!
Retreat quickly…”
Chief Disciple Zong Tianchen swiftly dragged Nangong Li away.
Whoosh!
In the next moment, a tornado-like black Qi storm, leveled the surrounding woods and hills for dozens of feet, with dozens of Yunyue Sect members perishing within it.
“Block this demon!”
A sharp cry rang out from the sky.
A man and a woman descended from the heavens, standing before the Bone Demon King.
The man wore a voluminous black robe, around thirty to forty years old, radiating a powerful and fierce aura.
The other, a woman in colored palace attire, was stunningly beautiful, her phoenix eyes emitting an invisible sword intent.
“Slash!”
The man and woman each wielded a treasured sword, sending out two soaring sword rainbows, one gold and one colorful, dazzlingly bright.
Swoosh-boom!
Ding ding ding sizzle!
The gold and colorful sword lights intertwined, creating a vast storm of sword Qi in gold and multicolors, enveloping the six to seven stories tall Bone Demon King.
“What a terrifying Sword Dao aura!”
Ten miles away, Chen Yu stood on the observation deck, witnessing the shocking confrontation.
The sword attacks of the man and the woman were on par with Lv Tiezu, especially the dazzlingly beautiful woman in colorful attire, whose sword intent surpassed him slightly.
Together, their strengths rose to new heights, capable of proudly standing above the usual forces of Chu Country’s sect world.
“Retreat swiftly!
Together, we can only hold the Bone Demon King for the brief time it takes to brew a pot of tea.”
The man in the black robe looked back and shouted fiercely.
Quickly retreat!
The Yunyue Sect Master, with an urgent look, led the Yunyue Sect members away from the area.
“Thank goodness the two seniors from Lingjian Sect arrived, or the consequences would have been unimaginable.”
“With only the Bone Demon King, it could flatten our Yunyue Sect, let alone that the Supreme Elder is being pursued and his whereabouts are unknown!”
Some Yunyue Sect high-rankers said, still in fear.
Looking back,
The man in the black robe and the woman in the colorful attire, their swords combined, created a vast storm of gold-multicolored sword Qi that enveloped the Bone Demon King, sparks flying everywhere but without leaving any notable scars.
The sword cultivators, known for their offensive prowess, could not wound the Bone Demon King.
And at the previous battlefield.
Yunyue Sect’s Supreme Elder Gongyang had also been grievously injured by a casual strike from the Bone Demon King.
“These two are mine to deal with, while you pursue and kill the remnants of the Yunyue Sect.”
A flat voice came from within the Bone Demon King’s skull.
Through the flickering crimson flames in the Bone Demon King’s eye sockets, one could vaguely see a handsome and elegant Blood Robed Man sitting cross-legged inside.
“Kill!”
Behind the massive body of the Bone Demon King, a force of several hundred people charged, brimming with killing intent.
Among them, nearly ten high-end fighters in the Innate stage of Qi Transformation, led by the likes of Guardian Shangguan and the Water Moon Sect Master, were vastly superior to the Yunyue Sect.
“Are these Yunyue Sect people trying to retreat to their mountain gate?”
The Water Moon Sect’s beautiful Sect Master chuckled coldly, her face sullen.
“Hmm?
It looks like we’re near Tieling Mine ahead.”
Guardian Shangguan unfolded a map, a sharp glint in his eyes.
