Chapter 1388 Who is this?
At the heart of the battlefield, the surging flames gradually receded, leaving only a deep black lotus with fiery red veins visible on its leaves, suspended in mid-air.
Even without human control, the fire lotus would spontaneously release an invisible heat wave to protect itself, preventing even lightning from getting within a thousand feet of it.
Seeing this, Jiang Han was not worried but happy. A flash of sword light appeared beside him, and the cyan-gold flying sword instantly sliced off a large piece of the demon king's scales, along with a piece of demon skin, and with a flick of his wrist, it wrapped around the fire lotus.
As expected, this time there were no surprises. The demon king's leather armor unfolded and completely enveloped the fire lotus.
The scorching heat around them subsided by more than half in an instant, but the leather armor turned bright red in the blink of an eye, and the heat wave surged out through the leather armor as if it wanted to burn it up.
Seeing this, Jiang Han's sword flashed again, cutting out dozens of layers of demon king leather armor to wrap around the fire lotus completely.
Then, he manipulated his spiritual power, and the fire lotus slowly flew over and stopped in front of him.
Even though he was wrapped in dozens of layers of demon king leather armor, he could still feel the terrifying demonic fire hidden inside the armor. If the fire lotus were to erupt at such close range, even he would probably be injured and would have to use many methods to barely escape.
"This item can be another killing move for me."
If this fire lotus is used to ambush a powerful enemy, the opponent will most likely fall into the trap if they are careless. Once they touch the fire lotus itself, even a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage or above will suffer a great loss.
Once things are settled here and we return to the outside world, if Elder Huangfu dares to do anything underhanded again, he will have some power to retaliate.
Jiang Han raised his hand to support the fire lotus, then took several pieces of leather armor to completely wrap the fire lotus, sealed it with a restriction, put it into a jade box and put it away. Only then did he turn his gaze to the demon king's physical body beside him.
Before that enormous body, thirteen broken flying swords hovered motionless, their spiritual light dimmed considerably, no longer possessing the sharpness they once had.
"It's certainly a joyous occasion to acquire another treasure, but it's a pity about these flying swords."
In this battle, the twelve top-grade flying swords used to form the sword formation, including the Thunderclap Sword, all suffered considerable damage.
Although these flying swords withstood the demonic fire for a long time without being burned on the spot, nearly 70% of the restrictions on them were destroyed, and more than 50% of the flying swords themselves were damaged. They lost their sharpness and were almost scrapped.
According to the sword spirit, its inner spirituality is too damaged, and repairing it will require a lot of precious materials.
Fortunately, now that we have obtained the Demon King's physical body, if we use the broken sword as a base and then refine it again with the Demon King's materials, we can not only repair the flying sword completely, but also perhaps increase its power several levels.
In particular, the Demon King's tough bones, if refined into a flying sword, would surely make the flying sword several times more resilient.
Besides that, there's also that precious sword.
Jiang Han flipped his hand and took out a long sword. Upon closer inspection, his eyes lit up with surprise.
This sword was obtained from the Dragon Palace Treasury. I had always thought it was a true spirit treasure lacking spirituality and had little power, so I had never used it.
When he faced the demon king's horn, he had no defensive magic weapon to withstand that attack, so he subconsciously took out this sword and held it in front of him.
Unexpectedly, the sword actually blocked that incredibly powerful blow.
Although he suffered internal organ damage from the aftershocks, the sword itself was completely undamaged, without even a trace.
This demonstrates just how sturdy and durable this sword is.
"So, this sword might actually be a celestial treasure lacking spiritual essence?"
Jiang Han was overjoyed. He never expected that his random choice would actually bring him such a precious treasure.
Unfortunately, this item needs a powerful true spirit essence to help it regain its spirituality; otherwise, no matter how good the sword is, he will not be able to use it.
However, it cannot be denied that this sword is an excellent treasure, and may even be the most precious treasure in the Dragon Palace's treasury!
If the old Dragon King found out, I wonder if he would be so angry that he would hang those three silly dragons up and beat them.
Jiang Han chuckled softly, then his gaze shifted as he looked up at the horizon, muttering in surprise:
"It was him...these few people actually got together."
Within his divine sense, three people were rapidly flying towards him through the void.
Although they concealed their forms, it had absolutely no effect on Jiang Han's abnormally powerful divine sense.
With just a sweep of his divine sense, he could see through their concealment techniques and clearly observe their every move.
He had seen two of them from afar when he broke through to the next level. They were lying in ambush outside the valley, but he didn't make a move. At that time, things were urgent, so he didn't make contact with them.
Unexpectedly, they ended up with Yun Fengzhu.
However, now that Yun Fengzhu has arrived at the second level, I wonder where Senior Brother Meng is now.
With Senior Brother Meng's strength, the first level certainly wouldn't be able to trap him; he should be on the second level by now.
And then there's Jun Linyuan, whom I fought before entering the Immortal Palace. If we meet again, I will certainly not let him off the hook.
Jiang Han hesitated for a moment, then withdrew his gaze, ignoring the three approaching people. Instead, he took out the Sumeru Pearl and tossed it into the air.
The pearl remained suspended in mid-air until he made a hand gesture, at which point it emitted a huge light screen that shone onto the demon king's body.
As soon as it was illuminated by that spiritual light, the demon king's body, which was as large as a mountain, rapidly shrank and slowly flew towards the precious pearl in mid-air.
Not long after, a wave of energy rapidly flew from afar, reaching a distance of over a hundred miles.
As soon as they approached, the calm void suddenly trembled, the concealment formation shook violently, revealing three terrified figures within.
"That, that's..."
Zhuang Heng glanced at it once, and his pupils contracted sharply, and large beads of cold sweat instantly streamed down his forehead.
If he wasn't mistaken, the enormous demon corpse being collected seemed to be... the true form of the Mountain-Shaking Demon King.
No, he couldn't possibly be mistaken; the aura emanating from that figure was undoubtedly that of the Mountain-Shaking Demon King!
"This...this...the Demon King of the Mountain Shattering Realm is dead?"
Junior Brother Xu, like him, stood frozen in place with his mouth agape, trembling all over, unable to believe what he was seeing.
The Mountain-Shaking Demon King, who had roamed the Land of Inheritance for many years, stood proudly at the pinnacle of this place, acted with impunity, slaughtered countless people, and struck fear into the hearts of all, had actually died just like that?
"This, how is this possible!!"
Junior Brother Xu cried out in surprise, but Zhuang Heng immediately covered his mouth tightly:
"Don't talk, or we'll all die!"
Zhuang Heng's breathing quickened. He remembered how ruthless this senior sword cultivator was. He could kill demons without saying a word. He was a powerful being that could not be provoked at all.
After a moment, only when Junior Brother Xu nodded repeatedly did he slowly release his hand.
He stared intently at the seemingly young swordsman, unable to recover for a long time.
I really can't understand how such a powerful being could exist in this world.
The opponent was clearly only at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Even if his physical body was at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul realm, no matter how strong his physical body was, it was impossible for it to be comparable to these demon races with naturally powerful bloodlines.
But why was the opponent able to kill the Mountain-Shaking Demon King, who was at the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage and whose combat power was comparable to that of the Great Perfection of Nascent Soul?
Who exactly is this sword cultivator, or rather, this senior?
