Chapter 161: The Demon's Tragic Death, The Mysterious Guest
How could the Horned Demon have anticipated a spear thrusting out from the side? Driven by the inertia of its charge, the Horned Demon saw the spear right in front of it. It was too late to parry with its trident. With a clang, it directly threw away the trident in its hands and desperately gripped the front end of the spear, blocking this fatal blow.
Meanwhile, the Ox-Head's three-pronged fork had been pulled back. With a thrust, it plunged straight into the Horned Demon's throat.
The Horned Demon only had time to swing the dragon tail behind it.
The dragon tail, over three meters long, was as flexible as a tentacle. It wrapped around the front end of the three-pronged fork in the Ox-Head's hand, intending to fling the Ox-headed creature, fork and all.
The Horned Demon clearly underestimated the force in the Ox-Head's hand.
Perhaps, it subconsciously forgot that it was not in the Hell Dimension. Under the rules of the Current World, it could only exert six or seven tenths of its full strength.
Although the Ox-Head and Horse-Face were both transformations of the Ghoul White Bone Banner's restriction formation, their strength was less than one ten-thousandth of that of two Ancient Yin Marshals.
But the Ox-Head race was known for its strength in ancient times. The three-pronged fork in the Ox-Head's hand weighed several hundred pounds, and the force of its thrust was far more than ten thousand pounds.
The Horned Demon's dragon tail wrapped around the spear shaft, exerting its full strength to pull upwards, yet it still couldn't budge the three-pronged fork in the Ox-Head's hand.
Feeling the force transmitted through the spear shaft, the Horned Demon's scale-covered face was filled with surprise and panic!
"Hiss!"
The Ox-Head's empty, lifeless eyes showed no emotion as it plunged the fork straight through its throat.
Immediately after, the Horse-Face used force with both hands. The twelve-foot spear sliced across the Horned Demon's palm and directly pierced into its heart...
At the same time, the figures of Black and White Impermanence appeared beside it without anyone noticing. Two dirge cudgels, one black and one white, heavily struck the top of the demon's head, its heavenly spirit.
The two dirge cudgels, which looked like wooden sticks, smashed down on the Horned Demon's head, instantly breaking the four long horns on its head.
They dented its iron-hard forehead into two concave marks.
Purple-black blood continuously oozed from the demon's nostrils, ears, and eyes...
The Ox-Head and Horse-Face, shrouded in black mist, raised their three-pronged fork and twelve-foot spear, lifting the Horned Demon and presenting it before Tang Song...
Tang Song stood up, leaning on his cane, observing the broken-horned demon, which had died a truly tragic death.
The sharp fork tip of the three-pronged fork in the Ox-Head's hand was stuck in the Horned Demon's scale-covered throat...
The demon scales, which could resist large-caliber sniper rifles, were as fragile as dried fish scales under the sharp three-pronged fork.
The purple-black blood from the Horned Demon's throat dripped continuously along the fork's blood groove. Air rushed into its windpipe through the gaps in the fork.
A gurgling sound kept coming from the Horned Demon's throat.
The twelve-foot spear in the Horse-Face's hand was plunged into the Horned Demon's chest, its heart...
Blood, hot as lava, gushed out from the demon's chest.
When the high temperature demon blood came into contact with the black mist rising from the twelve-foot spear in the Horse-Face's hand, it was like pouring a pot of ice water into hot oil.
White smoke instantly hissed out...
Even for a demon, the heart is a vital point. As the heart lost excessive blood, the amplitude of the demon's dragon tail swings, which were initially violent, gradually ceased.
"Roar!"
The Big Cat, which had been listless beside Tang Song, perked up when it saw the demon stop moving. It opened its mouth and let out a low growl. Sharp tiger claws popped out from its paw pads, eager to strike.
"Hiss!"
Even faster than the timid tiger was Xiao Hei, who was beside Tang Song.
Its body shrunk to the thickness of chopsticks and it plunged directly into the Horned Demon's chest.
When it broke through the Horned Demon's chest and poked its head out, it was holding a fragmented purple-black crystal in its mouth.
In the Hell Dimension, demons killing and devouring each other is a common occurrence.
Ordinary demons who want to gain greater strength can only kill and devour enough of their kindred's hearts to complete their transformation and advancement.
In the Hell Dimension, only the hearts of a few high-level demons crystallize after death. This energy crystal stone is a harder currency than human souls in the Hell Dimension and generally only circulates among high-level demons, demon lords, and Hell-Lords.
Judging solely from the crystallized heart, this unlucky Horned Demon was at least a high-level demon, even in the Hell Dimension where demons are everywhere.
It was the kind that might not appear even among millions of demons across hundreds of miles of demon plains.
However, it's unclear whether this demon's luck was good or bad. The magic array leading to the Current World was about to close, yet it insisted on expending most of its energy to forcibly tear it open again.
As a result, the half-dead Horned Demon had just arrived in the Current World when it was ambushed by a group outnumbering it.
It was beaten until blood flowed from its seven orifices, dying tragically on the spot!.........
Xiao Hei's body returned to the thickness of an egg, holding the fist-sized crystal in its mouth and delivering it to Tang Song's hand.
Tang Song looked at the translucent purple-black crystal in his palm, feeling the energy fluctuation within it. He was also somewhat surprised by the energy intensity inside this crystal.
He pondered for a moment, deciding not to use this crystal to refine the White Bone Banner. Instead, he put the crystal into his Five Yin Wallet.
He stroked Xiao Hei's hornless flood dragon head, then poured out a handful of blood pills from a jade bottle and fed them to it.
"Roar"
The Big Cat beside him seemed to know the benefits of the blood pills. It kept rubbing its big head against Tang Song's pant leg, its tail rhythmically swinging back and forth.
"Inferior goods!"
Looking at the Big Cat's pleading tiger face, Tang Song poured out another blood pill from the jade bottle.
He tossed it into the Big Cat's mouth.
"Hiss hiss..."
The Big Cat looked at Xiao Hei beside it, who was spitting its tongue with ill will. It swallowed the blood pill in one gulp and shrank back behind Tang Song.
"Thump!"
The Ox-Head and Horse-Face swung their fork and spear, throwing the dead Horned Demon onto the ground. Tang Song's divine sense moved, and streams of black energy hung down from the White Bone Banner, dragging the Horned Demon's corpse into the White Bone Banner.
Not far away, the crack in the ground torn open by the Horned Demon, filled with firelight, had collapsed and crumbled as the magic array disappeared.
At the Alley exit of the Troll Black Market, a dozen armored transport vehicles were parked not far from the exit. At the collapsed Iron Gate exit of the Troll Black Market, a dozen Big men, working in pairs, were moving heavy-looking wooden crates back and forth.
As each wooden crate was loaded into the transport vehicles, the tires of the vehicles visibly flattened.
Beside each transport vehicle stood two fully armed Paper Soldiers, holding assault rifles, vigilantly watching their surroundings.
On the Highway two hundred meters in front of the armored transport vehicles, not a single car drove near this Alley.
