[Northern Spirit Forest]
Northern Spirit Forest, located around the Great Northern Mountains that covered the Tang Kingdom.
Boooom!
"Haaaa!" Dong Jin roared, leaking his Qi energy. He swings his sword, ripping apart the Beast's right hand.
Roaaaaar!
"Careful! Raging Snow Wolf is awakening its rage state." Yige Li Hua warned, quickly pulling back Dong Jin from the corrupted red Qi, that the wolf released when unleashing its rage state.
Graaaaaa!
The Raging Snow Wolf roared, its blue crystal furrs transforming in red. Its eyes shining bright red, fangs growing sharper and longer.
Swish!
"Kugh!" Dong Jin grunted, blocking the swift claws of Raging Snow Wolf. He was sent flying by the impact, his body crashing to a tree.
Bam!
As, Yige Li Hua who just had blocked the corrupted Qi of Snow Wolf… dashed toward him.
Hehe
"Brother Dong, need my help?" Yige Li Hua said, sprinting her steps toward the Wolf. She took out her very thin sword, with rose vines grown around its edge. She tightly gripped her red hilt, swinging it toward the Wolf arms.
Slash!
Splash!
Grooooo!
The Raging Snow Wolf grunted, losing its other arm, blood gushing out of its chopped arm. It used to have a total of six arms, but now it is down to three arms.
Ha.. Ha..
'Damn it, I was reckless earlier.' Dong Jin grunted, remembering that he dropped his guard before. Causing him to lose his left arm.
"Don't daze around, Brother~ We still have this big Wolfy to deal with." Yige Li Hua then said, slightly pecking her finger with her delicate red lips.
"Withered Rose Saint, First Manual: Deadly Crush." Yige Li Hua chanted, her thin sword glowing rosy red light. The snowy white mountain engulfed in red light.
Whoooosh!
Enormous amounts of withered roses begin to grow in the snowy land, all of the withered roses soon intertwining with each other.
Fwooooosh!
'Tha.. That! Is that the legendary Manual of Withered Rose Saint.' Dong Jin exclaimed inwardly, his whole being overshadowed by a huge shadow.
Even, the Raging Snow Wolf who was boasting to be 7m tall, paled in comparison to the intertwining roses growing infront of him.
"This is my Saint Manual, Deadly Romance." Yige Li Hua exclaimed, levitating in the air. She reached upto the height of 10m as she lightly tapped the head of her Rose Fairy.
It was a majestic fairy, with all of its body created by the withered rose. She had greenish skin, with her head being red. She had her eyes closed, as she soon began glowing, her body cracking open.
Whoooosh!
The humongous fairy disappeared in a blink of a second, a strange sword in Yige Li Hua's hand.
Whooosh!
Yige Li Hua leaped, appearing right infront of the Raging Snow Wolf. She raised her newly formed sword…
Slash!
Swinging it toward the Wolf. The Wolf tried blocking it with its huge paw, but surprisingly. The sword cut through the paw of the Wolf like butter, the sword swiftly beheading the Wolf.
Fwishhh!
Splatter!
The Wolf dead body soon began growing, many withered roses from its flesh. The withered roses quickly squishing the carcass of the Wolf, the body blows up.
Flesh and blood splattering all around the snowy land of the Forest.
Grrrr!
Grrr!
'There are more of them.' Yige Li Hua exclaimed, swiftly turning toward the deep forest. That was radiating hostile intent, as she and Dong Jin spotted more of the Raging Snow Wolf.
'I wonder how he is doing.' She thought, leaping toward the Wolves.
'Great! I have healed my Qi.' Ding Jin thought, quickly getting up his cross-legged position. He also followed Yige Li Hua, leaping toward the third tier Raging Snow Wolves.
Kaboooooom!
…
Bang!
Bang!
Boooooom!
"Human, This demon is impressed by your talent. Let me give you a chance, become my subordinate and I will let you live and even give you powerful resources." A male demon said, using its demonic claws to tear apart the trees in its forest.
Hehehe
"This Prince is also impressed by your comedy. Let me also give you a chance, become my punching bag and I will kill you painlessly. How is the offer? Coward?" Feng Jiao-long mockingly said, dodging the claws of the demon.
'He is a beginning Quasi-Emperor Demon. That means his battle poweress are comparable with high-level Quasi-Emperor. I have to be alittle careful.' Feng Jiao-long inwardly thought, as demons were naturally more powerful than humans in both physical and spiritual aspects.
"You dare call me a coward, human! I have made my decision, I will now rip your skin and kill you in the most painful way!" The demon shouted, hearing Feng Jiao-long call him a coward.
Whoosh!
He zapped toward Feng Jiao-long, trying to rip his arms. So, he could slowly torture him.
Clank!
But, Feng Jiao-long quickly raised his sword, defending against the attack.
Rumble!
"Annoying, Human!" The demon grunted. His red skin flaring demonic Qi, which was dark red in colour. The ground near their vicinity began to shake, as he levitated in the air.
Whoosh!
Feng Jiao-long also, quickly flying through the air, he also released his sliver Qi. Both of their Qi energy colliding against each other.
"Seventh Demon Legacy: Unholy Claws!" The demon shouted, his claws engulfed with demonic Qi.
'Legacy Holder! He actually is a Demon Lord's spawn!' Feng Jiao-long inwardly exclaimed, feeling the Demon Lord energy from those claws.
'So, he isn't one of those strayed demons, but was sent by a Demon Lord.' Feng Jiao-long guessed, laughing at his luck.
'It seems like the Demons are really dedicated on conquering this land, in this Union.' He thought, quickly dodging the Demon attack.
"Human! You will pay for the audacity of calling me a coward!" The Demon shouted, his body growing by a few metres, as his speed began to increase so did his Demonic Qi which slowly corrupted the trees and snow nearby.
Clank!
Heh!
"You are just a pawn of the weakest Demon Lord, what are you so proud of?" Feng Jiao-long scoffed, clashing against the claws with his sword.
Clank!
Clang!
Bam!
"Krgh!" The demon grunted, getting kicked in his guts. He was sent a few steps back, both of them still holding their ground in the air.
Ziii!
"Lighting Art: Demons Curse!" The demon shouted, his body shrouded by lighting. He struck Feng Jiao-long with his lighting, the entire surrounding clapping with lighting.
Zii!
Zii!
'Divine Devil Totem, First Level: Gauntlet of Sin.' Feng Jiao-long chanted, protecting his body with the lightings. The devil claw tattoo that was in his arm, began to grow engulfing his entire arm.
Boooooom!
Fwoooosh!
Heh!
The Demon smirked, feeling the holy energy that Feng Jiao-long used soon dying out.
"This is what happens when a mere human tries to defy the demon." The demon laughed, slowly descending to the ground.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, the pace of the wind changed. The Demon immediately jolting back from his step.
Boooom!
The land where the demon was about to land, completely pulverised.
Sweat!
Sweat!
Sweat!
'What!' The demon exclaimed in terror, sweaty all over, completely horrified by the energy he just felt.
Kekeke
"How was it? The feeling of death? Wasn't it fun to escape your death by just a few steps?" A deep voice then echoed through the forest, making the devil turn toward the voice.
'This! It can't be!' The demon exclaimed in horror, unconsciously taking back his steps.
"Yo- You! You aren't human! Who are you! You can't be a human!" The demon shouted, his legs trembling from the demonic Qi aimed at his direction.
"Oh' I'm a human, believe it or not." Feng Jiao-long said, his pupils turning into a serpent slit.
He had a demonic-looking gauntlet attached to both his hands, both of them releasing an intense amount of Demonic Qi. This Gauntlet had a bright red gem in its middle, while it had a sharp finger guard.
'This demonic skill is really powerful. I can't mantain this technique for much longer, I have to kill him quickly.' Feng Jiao-long thought, nervously smirking.
This technique called "Divine Devils Totem' was a unique art, which allowed its Practitioner to actually borrow the Devil Qi from the Divine Devil himself, who was also known as the ruler of Hell World.
Ding!
[Host can only maintain the Divine Demon Totem Possession for three minute!]
A message popping infront of Feng Jiao-long, he grumbled turning toward the Demon.
Whoooosh!
He bolted at him, raising his Demonic gauntlet that thirst for the bloody.
'Damn it! I have to fulfil the mission given by My Lord. I can't die here!' The Demon thought, clenching its claws.
Bam!
Crash!
*Cough!* The demon vomited blood, blocking the punch of Feng Jiao-long. He was sent flying, crashing near a boulder.
"Ground Scattered Slash!" Feng Jiao-long shouted, chopping in the air. He created a slash out of air, throwing it toward the demon.
Boooooom!
The entire boulder was cut in half, the demon soaked by his blood, as he lost his left arm blocking the attack.
Ha..
Ha… Hah…
'I have to escape. I can't win against him.' The demon decided, looking at his escape. He swiftly took out a escape talisman out of his ring, trying to use it to escape.
When….
Swish!
Feng Jiao-long appeared right infront of him, tearing apart the talisman.
"Die!" Feng Jiao-long said, his serpent-like eyes glowing red.
Thurst!
Puch!
He impaled his gauntlet inside the Demon's chest, his hand clenching the heart of the Demon. He squished the heart, bursting it inside his body.
Thud!
The demon lifelessly fell to the ground, his blood soaking the snow red.
Ding!

Ugh!
Feng Jiao-long grunted, cancelling his Totem possession. The gauntlet soon faded away, the intense Demonic Qi in the surrounding quickly calming down.
'I still can't master this totem.' Feng Jiao-long thought, looking at the dead demon. He used his Royal Sense to check on Yige Li Hua and Dong Jin.
Who seemed to be fighting with a pack of Raging Snow Wolf, many carcasses of Wolves already spoiling the snow around the land with its blood.
Smooch~
Yige Li Hua threw an air-kiss, feeling the Royal Sense of Feng Jiao-long observing them.
Feng Jiao-long soon retreated his Royal sense, dashing toward their direction.
