Record of a Demon's Cultivation-Chapter 458: The Resurrection of the Wind Thunder Golden Eye Beast?

Translator: Cinder Translations

---

Yin Shuo's quick escape from the labyrinth was mainly due to his possession of some information about the maze, along with a bit of luck.

He had just exited the maze when he encountered Jing Wuming, who was secretly watching the battle.

With the intention of reaping the benefits from the conflict, the two did not engage directly but instead hid and observed.

After a brief exchange, they discovered that Jing Wuming's goal was the Soul-Destroying Demon Pill, while Yin Shuo was after the Wind Thunder Golden Eye Beast.

Thus, the two quickly agreed to cooperate temporarily, each pursuing their own objectives.

...

The two arrived above the corpse coffin and each shot a beam of spiritual power.

Yin Shuo aimed to seize the corpse of the Wind Thunder Golden Eye Beast, while Jing Wuming aimed to take the pill furnace.

However, they encountered the same situation as before with Xing Gaohan.

The sinister energy gushing from the supporting pillars shattered their spiritual power.

Clearly, the two had not expected this and were momentarily stunned, planning to use their powers again.

The Fire Phoenix flapped its wings.

The vines shot through the air.

A dried corpse suddenly appeared in front of Yin Shuo.

The corpse was decayed and torn, its bones faintly glowing with a golden hue.

The corpse emitted an overwhelming aura of death and attacked the vine with great force.

Jing Wuming, whose body originally showed signs of aging, suddenly expanded, growing to a height of about ten feet, his muscles bulging.

His left hand clenched into a fist, the muscles on his arm taut, with veins resembling ancient tree roots wrapping around his skin.

A giant ape phantom, towering dozens of feet tall, appeared behind him.

"Break!"

Jing Wuming shouted.

The giant ape phantom, seemingly responding to the command, threw a punch through the air.

In an instant, the wind from the punch howled like a hurricane, freezing cold and unstoppable.

A massive phantom fist appeared out of nowhere, carrying immense power, and charged at the Fire Phoenix.

The Fire Phoenix was struck by the phantom fist and let out a mournful cry.

Its form swayed, and the flames dimmed significantly.

Just as Jing Wuming was about to throw another punch, his peripheral vision caught sight of Yin Shuo quietly retreating a few steps.

Yin Shuo had used a golden corpse to momentarily block Xing Wen Yao's attack, and he now seized the opportunity to cast a spell directly at the stone coffin.

Several streams of spiritual power shot from his body and entered the coffin.

Jing Wuming, with a cold expression, spoke, "Sneaking around and doing shady things is not the way of a great demon master."

Yin Shuo's expression remained unchanged, "Don't worry, my friend. You just need to stop Xing Gaohan. Once the sinister energy in the coffin is broken, I'll only take the Wind Thunder Golden Eye Beast's corpse, and the pill furnace will be yours."

Jing Wuming coldly replied, "I'd better see that happen!"

With that, he ignored Yin Shuo and focused entirely on the battle with Xing Gaohan.

If Yin Shuo dared to break the agreement and take both the beast's corpse and the pill furnace for himself, Jing Wuming would certainly turn against him. Yin Shuo would then have to face a siege by three Nascent Soul cultivators, which would be tantamount to seeking death.

Jing Wuming was confident that with Yin Shuo's intelligence and nature, he would not make such a foolish mistake.

"Jing Wuming, how dare you betray the bond between our two families and team up with Yin Shuo, this devil!" Xing Gaohan shouted angrily.

During the battle with Xing Wen Yao and the two demons, Xing Gaohan had expended a considerable amount of spiritual power.

Moreover, both Jing Wuming and Yin Shuo had defensive spiritual treasures, making it difficult for his Focused Spirit Stab to harm them.

Additionally, while Xing Wen Yao was only at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul, both Jing Wuming and Yin Shuo were at the late stage, putting the Xing family at a disadvantage in terms of cultivation.

Unable to win through force, Xing Gaohan could only try to reason with him.

Jing Wuming smiled faintly, his tone filled with disdain.

"Xing Gaohan, we've both been cultivating for hundreds of years. Why bother with such childish words? The bond between the two families? What does that even mean? Does it enhance our cultivation or extend our lifespan?"

Xing Gaohan stared at Yin Shuo, who was casting a spell on the stone coffin, his teeth grinding in hatred, yet he was helpless.

"Jing Wuming, how dare you make a deal with Yin Shuo the old monster? Don't be surprised if you end up with nothing and Yin Shuo stabs you in the back."

Jing Wuming paid no attention to Xing Gaohan, focusing only on holding the other side back.

He glanced at Yin Shuo behind him, slightly dissatisfied, and spoke.

"Yin Shuo, how much longer will this take? Why haven't you broken the sinister energy from the stone pillar yet?"

Yin Shuo replied, "This sinister energy is endless and quite tricky. Give me a moment."

"Hmph!" Jing Wuming snorted in displeasure.

The four human Nascent Soul cultivators were fiercely engaged in battle, but none noticed the change in the two demons.

The Xuan Yin Heavy Water on the ground had disappeared. It seemed that Yuan Hao had used some method to secretly absorb it into his body.

The remaining fire poison on Yuan Hao's body was dispersed by the Xuan Yin Heavy Water, and his injuries had largely healed.

However, to avoid drawing the attention of the four human cultivators, his appearance remained charred and blackened.

The Wind Eagle, with several holes punctured in its body by the vines and a sword strike to its back, dragged its heavily injured body and quietly left the hall, disappearing without a trace.

Suddenly.

The vine that reached the ceiling of the hall on the stone pillar began to spread with blood-colored veins.

The entire pillar rapidly turned a seductive, crimson hue.

The intense sinister energy within the pillar suddenly went out of control, surging forth in a powerful burst.

Yin Shuo, closest to the pillar, was caught off guard and was the first to be hit by the sinister energy.

Though the energy was overwhelming, it did not target Yin Shuo directly.

He was merely pushed back several feet by the force but quickly stabilized himself.

The sudden change naturally caught the attention of the other three.

"What's going on?" Jing Wuming turned and asked.

The pillar continued to pour out sinister energy, making Yin Shuo's clothes flutter violently.

"I don't know. It seems like the formation on this pillar was broken by someone, and the sinister energy was sealed inside and now leaking out."

Jing Wuming frowned, "Was it not your doing? Could there be someone else here?"

Yin Shuo shook his head and answered briefly.

He pulled out a long whip, and with a flick, it shot forward like a spirit snake, entering the stone coffin.

Just as the whip was about to wrap around the head of the Wind Thunder Golden Eye Beast, it was deflected by the violent Corpse Qi.

Yin Shuo was about to make another move when he saw the stone pillar suddenly tremble.

His eyes widened in disbelief as he seemed to witness something impossible.

He saw that the Wind Thunder Golden Eye Beast, which had been dead for thousands of years, suddenly moved its front hoof slightly.

As the hoof moved, the large chains embedded in it also swayed, making a dull sound.

Clang!

The beast's eyes suddenly opened, revealing blood-red pupils devoid of any emotion. They were like flames in the abyss, staring into the endless darkness, exuding a cold, merciless aura.

The sudden change made Yin Shuo instinctively retreat, his eyes fixed on the stone coffin.

The other three also ceased fighting, focusing on the transformation of the Wind Thunder Golden Eye Beast.

"Crash, Thud..."

The four chains began to shake violently, rubbing against the ground with a continuous, grinding sound.

The Wind Thunder Golden Eye Beast moved all four hooves at once, then stomped the ground, struggling to rise.

It seemed as though it had been asleep for too long or perhaps the weight of the stone pillar on its body was too great. Despite several attempts, it couldn't stand up.

Its eyes shifted, as if it had thought of something.

A vast force of soul energy surged from within the beast's body, flooding the stone coffin.

The ancient stone coffin seemed to be activated by the soul energy, and silver symbols began to appear both inside and outside the coffin. These symbols gradually spread, extending to the entire high platform.

On the platform above, the silver light grew intensely.
