Chapter 5, Level 7 Chapter 42: One of the Thirty-Six Envoys of Dongming Mountain
"What a powerful thunder method!" The water-colored demonic energy immediately condensed into an old man in green clothes. There was a layer of water-colored light shield above his head, resisting the angry strikes of the two thunders! With this strike, the water-colored light shield trembled violently, and the lightning moved everywhere, but the light shield remained stable.
Xu Jingming's face changed slightly when he saw this: "The strength of the Earth Demon is indeed much stronger."
Although the old man in green was secretly shocked by the power of the thunder, he still looked calm and confident, and smiled at the bloody figure who was in a rather miserable state at the moment: "Little girl, the demon-suppressing man is not easy to mess with, right? Are you willing to follow me to Dongming Mountain now?"
The blood-colored figure was pierced by nineteen golden lights one after another, and had become thin and weak. Especially after seeing the terrifying magical power of the Five Thunder Method, he knew that he was no match for the demon-suppressing man, and said, "I am willing to go to Dongming Mountain."
"Very good." The old man in green smiled and nodded.
Xu Jingming was secretly annoyed. This demon was so careless that he resisted his magical power, the Five Thunder Method, and even openly recruited another demon. He didn't take him seriously at all.
"Destroy."
Xu Jingming had a thought.
Thunder appeared in the clear sky again, and the black and white lightning entangled and struck down again, but this time, it struck directly at the bloody figure.
Thunder is too fast!
"How dare you!" The green-clothed old man's face changed drastically. His speed of protecting himself was fast enough, but in terms of flying speed... it was far slower than the speed of thunder piercing through the void. He could only watch the bloody figure being struck by the black and white thunder while being pierced through by nineteen golden lights.
"Ah!!!" Along with a shrill scream, the blood-colored demonic shadow instantly became extremely thin, and the thunder and lightning were still raging, completely destroying the remaining blood shadow.
The magical power of the Five Thunders Method killed the newly born blood shadow demon with one strike, leaving only a trace of his original demonic energy.
"You are so bold." The old man in green was furious and still rushed towards the wisp of innate demonic energy.
As long as she can preserve this trace of her innate demonic energy and spend some time, the female devil can fully recover.
This is what the devil is like, his obsession will not fade away and he will never die.
"snort."
Xu Jingming snorted coldly, and a huge golden net suddenly appeared between the sky and the earth! This net was so huge that it covered almost the entire Yufeng family mansion. Each rope of the net was as thick as an adult's arm. The net made of countless ropes not only covered the mansion, but also naturally trapped the old man in green.
"What is this?" The old man in green was astonished. He felt that the huge golden net had just covered him, but before it touched him, he felt as if he was carrying an endless burden, and his speed dropped sharply.
When these golden ropes fell on him, the binding force was even more terrifying.
The old man in green looked at Xu Jingming in astonishment: "In addition to the thunder technique, there is also such a trap spell?"
What Xu Jingming displayed was the 'Heavenly Net' which had already reached the entry level of magical power!
After the Thunder Method had transformed to the level of Divine Power, Xu Jingming had made slow progress in the recent period, and finally his 'Net Technique' had also reached the level of Divine Power. However, his 'Protective Starlight' was only at the Great Perfection stage for the time being.
Once you reach the level of supernatural powers, the power will naturally change qualitatively.
"receive."
When restraining the old man in green, Xu Jingming naturally and easily collected the original demonic energy of the female devil into the jade bottle.
"You don't even give face to Dongming Mountain. Very good." The old man in green was furious.
"Even after falling into the net, he is still so arrogant." Xu Jingming collected the nineteen golden beads, shook his head slightly, and made a seal with his hand. Black and white lightning struck down from the sky again. The old man in green had no way to avoid it. Bound by the net, he could only withstand the attack.
The thunder struck violently, causing wounds on the old man in green, but the wounds healed as the water-colored magic energy circulated.
"You have just reached the fourth level not long ago, right?" The green-clothed old man sneered, "Very good, I will remember you, break it for me!"
Accompanied by a roar.
The old man in green suddenly swelled up and turned into a water-blue monster. He struggled hard, trying to tear the net apart.
“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”
Xu Jingming did not stop at all, and struck the blue monster with black and white lightning one after another, causing many wounds on the monster's body. But the monster was still trying its best to tear the net.
"My magic power of subduing demons is only at the third level after all! Even though I'm practicing the 'Ten Thousand Stars Demon Refining Scroll', it's considered pure enough at the same level. But compared to the fourth level of magic power of subduing demons... the gap is still too big." Xu Jingming shook his head slightly, "The 'Five Thunder Method' at the entry level of magical power can only hurt this earth demon."
After performing the Five Thunder Technique twelve times in a row, Xu Jingming also felt a little tired.
Every time you perform this skill, your mental strength is consumed.
"Either I have to reach the fourth level, or my magical powers be further improved, before I can hope to kill this demon on my own." Xu Jingming also understood after a fight.
"collapse."
As the golden rope broke, the aqua-blue monster tried even harder to tear the net apart.
Xu Jingming's magical power mobilized the power of heaven and earth and easily repaired the "net of heaven and earth".
"What?" The city patrol demon had worked so hard to tear off a rope, but it was repaired in the blink of an eye. This made the city patrol feel bad!
"Using the Five Thunder Technique, my mental strength is consumed too quickly! But as long as I can maintain the net of heaven and earth... and repair it occasionally, I can hold out for half an hour." Xu Jingming did not attack, but simply trapped the city patroller with the net of heaven and earth.
"Brother Wu Ming, do you need my help?" A voice sounded in my ears.
Xu Jingming immediately recognized the voice as that of the head of the Qi family.
"Sorry to trouble you, Brother Qi Chen." Xu Jingming responded.
…
Above the Qi family.
Patriarch Qi Chen stood high in the sky, looking towards the direction of Yu Feng's house. Before that, Xu Jingming had been bombarding with black and white thunder, and the Earth Demon had tried his best to resist. The collision of the auras of both sides was so violent that Patriarch Qi Chen could sense it from afar.
"This brother Wu Ming is the person my sister specifically asked to make friends with." Qi Chen said inwardly.
After contacting Chi Tong, his sister Qi Xiao entrusted her brother with a task.
"Brother, Brother Wu Ming now lives in Cheng'an Prefecture. You must take good care of him and try to make friends with him." Qi Xiao instructed.
"Try to make friends with them?" Qi Chen was also puzzled at the time, "Is he very powerful? More powerful than our Moyun family?"
Qi Xiao only said: "Make friends with him, you will thank me in the future."
"Tell me clearly, who is he?" Clan leader Qi Chen asked at that time, but his sister Qi Xiao did not say anything more. After all, although she knew that Chi Tong was a peerless genius in Yuanchu Research Institute, and guessed that Wu Ming was the same, she still tried to keep this matter secret.
"Mysterious."
Patriarch Qi Chen was helpless.
But he also knew very well that his sister was the most outstanding talent of the younger generation of the entire Moyun family and had very high standards. Since his sister said this... it meant that this brother Wu Ming must be extraordinary in real life.
"Will they thank you in the future?" Chief Qi Chen muttered to himself, "What is his origin?"
Over the past month, Patriarch Qi Chen has been observing quietly.
However, Xu Jingming has not made any moves in the past month or so, concentrating on studying "The Chapter of Light".
"He finally took action today. It seems that he is a novice among the fourth-level demon-suppressing people." Clan leader Qi Chen watched the battle from afar and was a little confused. "I can't tell where he is so good."
Although he was puzzled, Clan Leader Qi Chen still took the initiative to send a message: "Brother Wu Ming, do you want my help?"
"Sorry to trouble you, Brother Qi Chen." Xu Jingming said.
Patriarch Qi Chen's eyes were shining as he looked clearly at the Yufeng family mansion.
whoosh!
It turned into a residual shadow, swept across the sky, and headed straight for Yufeng's house.
…
"It's quite a commotion."
Above the Demon Subduing Division, an old man looked in the direction of Yu Feng’s home. A mirror was suspended in front of him, showing everything going on in Yu Feng’s home.
“A demon on earth?” The old man also turned into a stream of light and flew to Yufeng’s house.
…
Outside the Yufeng mansion, people could see over the courtyard wall a huge golden net that almost covered the entire mansion. Every rope of the golden net was extremely clear. A water-blue monster had already rushed into the air and was struggling frantically, but could not break out of the net.
"An earth demon from Dongming Mountain."
"This Mr. Wu Ming is so powerful that he is fighting against this earth demon."
"He is indeed a demon-suppressor of the fourth realm."
The other demon hunters present were quite amazed.
Under normal circumstances, the gap between the third-level demon-suppressing person and the fourth-level demon-suppressing person is very obvious, and the possibility of cross-level combat is so low that it can be ignored! Xu Jingming can do it because he practices the top method in the history of the Yuanchuxing conjecture lineage! And he can only achieve this by practicing to the level of entry-level supernatural powers.
The magic power of ordinary demon hunters is much cruder and their methods are also much worse.
"You are a demon-conqueror."
The aqua blue monster growled, "Let me go immediately, or you will be in big trouble!"
"Are you threatening me?" Xu Jingming looked at him.
"The Lord of Dongming Mountain has five great demon gods and thirty-six messengers under his command. I am one of them who patrols the city." The aqua-blue monster continued, "I have many friends in Dongming Mountain. If you anger me, you will bring disaster upon yourself!"
"I'm so scared." Xu Jingming looked at him with a smile.
Looking at the smile of the demon-conqueror, the earth demon also understood that the other party was not afraid at all.
"What should I do? What should I do?" The Earth Demon was also anxious. This was the city, after all, a place where demon-suppressors maintained stability. Even the demons from Dongming Mountain did not dare to act too recklessly in the city where the demon-suppressors were the most numerous.
As a city patroller, he also walked carefully, inspected the surroundings, and learned the intelligence within the city.
Now that we are trapped, the longer the time, the more likely we are to encounter some powerful demon hunters in the city.
"I was wrong." The aqua blue monster bowed its head slightly. "I apologize to you, please let me go. As long as you let me go, I, Zhang Xiu, will definitely repay you."
whoosh.
A shadow streaked across the sky and landed beside Xu Jingming. It was a gray-haired old man named Qi Chen.
"Hey, this earth demon is begging for mercy." Patriarch Qi Chen said in surprise.
"Chief Qi?" The aqua-blue monster transformed into an old man in green and immediately saluted respectfully. "Chief Qi, I am Zhang Xiu, one of the thirty-six envoys of Dongming Mountain. Please spare my life and let me go."
The demons generally have stronger self-control and act like normal humans.
"Whether to release him or not depends on my brother Wu Ming." Patriarch Qi Chen looked at Xu Jingming.
"Sorry to trouble you, Brother Qi Chen." Xu Jingming said.
Patriarch Qi Chen nodded.
“No.” The old man in green clothes screamed with despair in his eyes, “The Green Lake Demon God and I are close friends, and the Lord of Dongming Mountain values me even more. If you kill me——”
Clan leader Qi Chen flicked his sleeves, and an invisible wind swept past the old man in green. The old man in green was halfway through his words when his eyes widened and he disappeared silently, leaving only a wisp of his own evil spirit trying to escape.
In terms of strength, Patriarch Qi Chen is ranked among the top five demon hunters in Cheng'an Prefecture, so it is natural for him to kill a patrolling demon.
"This wisp of innate demonic energy is of no use to me, brother Wu Ming, you should keep it." said clan leader Qi Chen. He was also determined to implement his sister's suggestion - try his best to make friends with this little brother Wu Ming.
"Thank you, Brother Qi Chen." Xu Jingming expressed his gratitude and took the wisp of demonic energy into the jade bottle. In the jade bottle, the two wisps of innate demonic energy could not be replenished by the power of heaven and earth, so naturally they could not cause any waves.
"But next, you have to be careful." Chief Qi Chen warned, "Earth demons are different from human demons. Earth demons are more like normal humans and they also care about friendship. It is very likely that there really is a demon from Dongming Mountain who is here to deal with you."
"Oh?" Xu Jingming nodded slightly, "Thank you Brother Qichen for the reminder. I will be careful."
