How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 456 - 0451: Retreating the Tribe

The defeat of the Red-eyed Jiao shocked most people.

"How is it possible? The Holy Beast Red-eyed Flood Dragon lost?"

"That kid defeated the Red-eyed Jiao?"

The tribespeople found it somewhat hard to believe.

It would have been somewhat understandable had the Red-eyed Jiao lost to the Fire Qilin, as both were Holy Beasts, the Fire Qilin had superior fire control skills and was also smarter than the Red-eyed Jiao.

But for Chen Yu to defeat the Red-eyed Jiao, that was particularly shocking.

In fact, they had also been watching the fight between Chen Yu and the Red-eyed Jiao; the battle between the man and beast was brutally fierce, evenly matched.

Logically, in terms of endurance, a Holy Beast should have had the advantage. Yet somehow, the Red-eyed Jiao suddenly fell.

Mantu Clan Chief glanced sideways briefly and immediately frowned, very annoyed.

"You stupid elephant, what are you standing there for?"

Mantu Clan Chief communicated telepathically with his mount, the Ancient Giant Elephant.

With the defeat of the Red-eyed Jiao, and considering that the Ancient Giant Elephant was virtually unharmed, the Mantu Clan Chief began to suspect whether the Ancient Giant Elephant had even participated in the battle, or whether it had deliberately gone easy.

Actually, due to its huge size, sustained flight greatly drained its True Yuan, and its attack mode was quite clumsy. Moreover, as Chen Yu and the Red-eyed Jiao were engaged in close combat, it was difficult for it to get involved.

Scolded by the Mantu Clan Chief, the Ancient Giant Elephant also felt very wronged.

Now that the Red-eyed Jiao had lost and spurred on by the Mantu Clan Chief, the Ancient Giant Elephant immediately charged over.

Chen Yu stowed his Black Torn Wings. Even in speed, he was still faster than the sky-flying Ancient Giant Elephant, not to mention more agile.

He immediately took out a vial and extracted a milky-white pill from it.

This was a Recovery Pill, a trophy obtained from the Landing Tribe, capable of accelerating the True Yuan recovery of Guiyuan Realm experts.

Whoosh!

Chen Yu agilely dodged the Ancient Giant Elephant’s attack and took the opportunity to recover his True Yuan.

He looked below. At this moment, the Red-eyed Jiao was struggling to rise, glaring at Chen Yu with a face full of resentment and anger.

Currently weakened and severely injured, its recovery ability also weakened, continuing the battle would only be counterproductive.

Whoosh!

The Red-eyed Jiao twisted its body to escape, leaving behind a threat, "Chen Yu, next time this Flood Dragon will surely claim your head."

"It’s escaping."

Chen Yu felt a bit of regret.

If this hadn’t been a battlefield with no one interfering, he would never have let the Red-eyed Jiao escape.

Firstly, the dragon-scale bloodline within him wasn’t much, and the bloodline of the Red-eyed Jiao was even superior.

Secondly, the eyes and demon core of the Red-eyed Jiao could serve as nourishment for the "Blood Crystal Flame," enhancing the power of the Innate Spiritual Flame.

Even if Chen Yu didn’t use it, the demon core and eyes of the Red-eyed Jiao could fetch a sky-high price. Along with some auxiliary materials, there was a certain probability to cultivate the "Cloud Jiao True Fire" and use it for himself.

Whoosh!

Chen Yu once again shifted to the right, dodging the Ancient Giant Elephant’s attack.

In the recent battle, not only had his True Yuan been greatly depleted, the "Blood Crystal Flame" had as well, besides his heart being continuously stressed, now was when Chen Yu was at his weakest.

At this time, Chen Yu wouldn’t face a strong enemy directly, so he simply played around with the Ancient Giant Elephant while using the opportunity to recuperatively heal.

However, the enemy wouldn’t give Chen Yu that chance.

Precisely, they believed that Chen Yu, having just defeated the Red-eyed Jiao, must have been seriously wounded. Thus, the Bi Hai Clan Chief, who had withdrawn to heal her injuries, came back again.

"This woman!"

Chen Yu couldn’t help but curse.

The face of the Bi Hai Clan Chief was grave. Her injuries were severe, and although she practiced Water Dao Techniques which granted strong self-healing abilities, her injuries were only half-healed at this point.

However, Chen Yu defeating the Red-eyed Jiao must have come at a great cost. If she teamed up with the Ancient Giant Elephant, perhaps they could defeat Chen Yu.

Whoosh!

Chen Yu, employing his movement technique, approached the Ancient Giant Elephant.

Given his current form, facing the combined efforts of the Bi Hai Clan Chief and the Ancient Giant Elephant was indeed tricky.

He arrived above the Ancient Giant Elephant and sat down on its back.

The Ancient Giant Elephant desperately shook itself, to no avail, so it swung its trunk, lashing at him.

Chen Yu immediately dodged, staying close to the Ancient Giant Elephant.

This move was one he had used before; in close combat with the Red-eyed Jiao, the massive and clumsy Ancient Giant Elephant didn’t know what to do and could only watch from the sidelines.

Seeing this, the Bi Hai Clan Chief also didn’t know what to do.

If she used the "Green Sea Divine Pearl" to perform an area attack, it might not necessarily hit Chen Yu, but it would definitely harm the Ancient Giant Elephant.

"Damn it!"

The Bi Hai Clan Chief drew a soft sword and actively went in for the attack.

Whoosh!

Chen Yu circled around the Ancient Giant Elephant, and whenever its trunk or tail swung at him, he was also able to dodge in time.

The movement technique of the Bi Hai Clan Chief was graceful, closely following Chen Yu.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

She occasionally slashed out with her sword, transforming it into a curved stream of water aimed at Chen Yu.

"Demon Scale Armor!"

Chen Yu activated the third demonic pattern skill, forming a suit of armor.

This combat skill lasted a long duration, meaning it saved True Yuan.

Chen Yu kept ignoring the Bi Hai Clan Chief, sticking close to the huge body of the Ancient Giant Elephant and continuously dodging.

"This child must have sustained severe injuries, otherwise, he wouldn’t just dodge continually."

The Bi Hai Clan Chief’s face lit up with joy, biting down hard on Chen Yu, continuously attacking.

Hum~

The Ancient Giant Elephant opened its mouth and roared violently; at this moment, it felt like two bugs were flying and scurrying all over its body, discomfort to the extreme, yet it was powerless to stop them.

The two of them continued like this around the Ancient Giant Elephant, one chasing, the other fleeing. After some time, Chen Yu, who had been fleeing, suddenly turned around.

"What?"

The Bi Hai Clan Chief’s complexion changed dramatically, sensing something was amiss.

Chen Yu was supposed to be severely injured, so why was he facing her directly?

Boom!

Chen Yu took out the Giant Ruler Sword and swept it out, answering the Bi Hai Clan Chief’s doubt with his actions.

Chen Yu was just largely depleted, temporarily not in his best form, but he wasn’t seriously injured.

Bang!

The Bi Hai Clan Chief swiftly struck out several times, and several streams of water collided with the black torrent, exploding upon impact.

An explosive wave spread out, causing the Bi Hai Clan Chief’s arm to ache, her hand barely maintaining its grip on her soft sword as her body was thrown backward.

"She was injured before this."

Chen Yu immediately noticed.

Seizing her vulnerability, aiming for her life, Chen Yu burst forth again, rushing towards the Bi Hai Clan Chief, not giving her a chance to breathe.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

His heart surged as he thrust his sword, even summoning a trace of "Blood Crystal Flame" to amplify its power.

At this moment, the Bi Hai Clan Chief felt a life-or-death crisis.

She immediately took out the Green Sea Divine Pearl, and a dark blue stream of water flowed out, swirling into a vortex.

Boom!

Chen Yu’s sword plunged into the vortex, all his power erupting, and within moments, the entire dark blue vortex collapsed.

Previously, the Bi Hai Clan Chief had used this move to block Chen Yu’s fatal attack.

But this time, she didn’t block it.

Perhaps the Spiritual Artifact "Green Sea Divine Pearl," having been used successively, had lost its former power.

Ding!

Breaking through the vortex, Chen Yu stabbed out his sword onto the "Green Sea Divine Pearl," making a crisp sound.

"No..."

The Bi Hai Clan Chief’s eyes widened in panic.

The "Green Sea Divine Pearl" required nurturing to exhibit its strongest power, and its potency diminished with use. Moreover, this special Spiritual Artifact wasn’t as durable as other weapons.

At this moment, the "Green Sea Divine Pearl" was at its weakest, and Chen Yu’s monstrous strength in that sword was something she had deeply experienced.

Bang!

The Bi Hai Clan Chief flew backward, glancing at the "Green Sea Divine Pearl" to find a dent and some barely visible cracks.

The Tribal artifact of the Bi Hai Tribe was no longer flawless.

The Bi Hai Clan Chief didn’t care about anything else and immediately fled.

"Where do you think you’re going?"

Chen Yu was still in a burst state, dashing out swiftly, slashing with another formidable sword.

"Water Spirit Technique."

The Bi Hai Clan Chief clenched her teeth, maneuvering her fingers and feeling True Yuan surge wildly within her.

The next moment, her body became partially transparent, seemingly filled with countless streams of water flowing back and forth.

Boom!

Chen Yu’s sword struck the Bi Hai Clan Chief as if slicing through water, moving right through her.

The Bi Hai Clan Chief let out a soft moan, with some blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, her watery and transparent body solidifying slightly.

Additionally, in this state, her speed had increased tremendously, becoming incredibly quick.

Swoosh!

The heavily injured Bi Hai Clan Chief escaped swiftly.

At this moment, Chen Yu’s heart surge state ended, and he did not pursue further.

"One must not underestimate a tribe with a deep foundation."

Chen Yu muttered quietly, not continuing the chase but turning to head back to the battlefield.

Not even bothering about the Ancient Giant Elephant, he went straight for the Mantu Clan Chief.

"Meet your end."

Before Chen Yu arrived, he had already slashed out a mighty wave of black light with his sword.

"It’s you, boy!"

The Mantu Clan Chief slightly startled, waved his hand, raising a dull glow that dissolved Chen Yu’s sword strike.

On the other side, the Red Flame King launched its fierce attack, spewing a bright light fireball at incredibly high speed directly at the Mantu Clan Chief.

"Block it!"

The Mantu Clan Chief swung his arm, and a swarm of square beetles flew out, forming a black shield.

However, they only held up momentarily before shattering apart.

Bang!

The Mantu Clan Chief lashed out a palm, blocking off the fierce light fireball.

"Don’t forget about me."

The Absolute Yin Ancestor levitated, a gray-black flame soaring up, forming a gray-black fiery orb, which the Ancestor slapped forward.

"Dammit."

The Mantu Clan Chief immediately commanded the insects to thwart and weaken the strike.

However, Chen Yu’s attack arrived again.

The Mantu Clan Chief was flustered, retreating repeatedly.

Swoosh!

He leaped backward onto the Three-headed Blue Steel Eagle, speeding away to sit beside the Ancient Giant Elephant.

This moment, with all his mounts, Spirit Pets, and insects present, the Mantu Clan Chief was at his peak power, able to combat at the Peak of Middle Stage Guiyuan Realm.

Yet, at this moment, his foes were no trivial beings.

Chen Yu, Red Flame King, and the Absolute Yin Ancestor, their combined strength was not weaker than the Mantu Clan Chief’s.

Both sides immediately clashed, battling again.

However, after a few exchanges, the Mantu Clan Chief’s expression darkened.

With Chen Yu as the shield, his attacks couldn’t achieve much effect, allowing the Red Flame King and Absolute Yin Ancestor to attack freely—neither of their flames was ordinary.

The longer this went on, the more disadvantageous it was for him.

"This battle ends here today!"

The Mantu Clan Chief bellowed.

Then, on the chaotic and vast battlefield below, the tribe’s people rapidly retreated.

The Mantu Clan Chief watched the Absolute Yin Ancestor, Chen Yu, and Red Flame King as he slowly withdrew.

He wasn’t afraid of Chen Yu and the others attacking him. After all, the difference between the two forces wasn’t enormous, and if Chen Yu pursued too deeply, he would be surrounded by the tribal warriors, which could be disadvantageous.

"We won!"

"We really won!"

The people of Chu Country saw their tribal enemies retreat, and after a fleeting stupor, they erupted in cheers.
