In the midst of the smoke and dust, a heavy and shocked gasp could be heard.
The black mastiff staggered to its feet, its fur, which was like silk satin, stained with blood. It had multiple wounds on its body, with flesh torn apart and blood dripping. The demonic energy around its body had become chaotic.
"Hmm? Surviving my attack?" Zhou Dao was a bit surprised.
With his current cultivation, when executing the second layer of the 'Sage's Great Hand Seal', even ordinary High-Level Evil Class monsters would be decapitated, and their demonic energy would be dispersed.
This black mastiff indeed had some strength, still standing after receiving his attack.
"You're pretty strong."
Zhou Dao whispered softly, his blood energy gathering like clouds around him, as a terrifying hand seal formed again. Trembling wildly, it transformed into ten phantom images, gradually merging.
"How...how is this possible..."
Yuan Shaobai's eyes trembled, almost going insane.
The Demon Sealing Master, who was initially insignificant in his eyes, was shockingly powerful to the point of despair. Chattering Thunder echoed, combined with the supreme power of [Inner Divine Weapon Skill], even the ferocious Mastiff Demon seemed like a plaything in his presence.
What was most terrifying was that this man was ruthless and merciless, with no unnecessary words. If his first attack didn't kill, he would strike again with thunderous force.
At this moment, Yuan Shaobai finally realized who the hidden great expert in Peace Town was.
The great expert that even the soon-to-be Slaughter Level Mastiff Demon was wary of was this young man in front of him.
Such a young age!
Such talent!
But the strength he possessed was enough to make most demons shrink back in fear.
Yuan Shaobai couldn't understand why someone like him would hide in the small Peace Town.
"Human, do you really think you're invincible?" The black mastiff demon roared angrily.
It revealed its tusks, maliciousness hiding behind a ferocious appearance.
"I'll make you pay the price. I want the entire Peace Town to quell my fury!"
The ferocious roar echoed like a strong wind within the demon control department.
Suddenly, the sinister, smoky demonic energy scattered like maggots and drilled into the ground.
Dark clouds covered the moon, resentful spirits gathered, and the evil atmosphere was chilling. The Taiyin spirit acted!
The black mastiff demon's body began to swell rapidly. Its long tail seemed to be covered with black flames, and its gleaming tusks resembled blades...
In the blink of an eye, the black mastiff demon's appearance changed so much that Yuan Shaobai himself felt fear.
He still underestimated the strength of this mastiff demon.
This demon had been hiding it all the while, not even revealing its true power when working with him.
In an instant, the black mastiff demon's demonic energy soared to the sky.
Many experts were alarmed.
"This demonic energy... it's coming from the direction of the Demon Control Department!"
"Something happened. What kind of demon is it, with such a banner-like demon wind and clouds covering the moon?"
"Not good, this level of demonic energy is almost reaching Slaughter Level!"
Chen Qinggang woke up from his sleep, his face as ugly as dark purple pig liver. He didn't even bother to put on his shoes and dashed towards the Demon Control Department.
The consequences would be unimaginable if demonic energy of this level were to run rampant and cause havoc.
Southern City Small Courtyard.
The red-clothed woman stood in the courtyard, looking at the dark clouds covering the sky, her beautiful eyes trembling. The howling strong wind swept up her hair and clothes, and her delicate face gradually filled with unease and fear.
"Xin'er..." At this moment, the scholar walked out of the house, holding a coat in his hand.
"The wind is strong at night, let's go in!" The red-clothed woman turned around, helped the scholar, and walked into the house.
The latter nodded and followed the red-clothed woman into the room. At the same time, he subconsciously looked up at the bright moon hidden in the sky...
"Human, how do you know about the techniques of the Wave Moon Cave!" The black mastiff demon's body almost filled the Great Hall, and its ferocious aura was enough to keep ordinary Demon-slaying Guards away.
Its demonic energy seeped into the ground, inexhaustible.
The black mastiff demon was using the secret technique of the Wave Moon Cave, called [White Bone Demon Transformation Skill]. It turned demon bones into nutrients and transformed them into powerful demonic energy that could be absorbed into one's body, breaking through shackles and reaching a higher realm.
Even in the Wave Moon Cave, the [White Bone Demon Transformation Skill] was considered taboo and couldn't be practiced casually.
Firstly, this technique was brutal and involved harnessing resentful spirits, affecting one's body with extreme Yin and evil energies. If one was not careful, it could backlash against them.
Secondly, to practice this technique, a large number of demonic corpses are needed, and the killing is too heavy, which is detrimental to the harmony of heaven and earth.
However, the mission of the Demon Control Department is to slay demons and eradicate evil, and after the demons are wiped out, their corpses will be handled and sealed away by Demon Sealing Masters.
Every two years, the Pingjiang City Monster Control Office will send people to deal with it in a unified manner.
Knowing that the next collection is two months away, the Black Mastiff Demon is prepared.
Now, under the Peace Town Demon Control Department, a large number of demonic corpses are piled up.
This serves as the perfect opportunity and condition for the Black Mastiff Demon.
"The bones of the group of demons are piled like mountains, and the resentful spirits enter the body to become powerful demons!"
"On the day the Wave Moon Cave opens, the three lights enter my stomach, and I shall become the catastrophe!"
Black Mastiff demon muttered the incantations.
Once the demonic corpses have transformed into energy and entered his body, he will be able to reach even higher realms.
At that time, the human in front of him will be nothing more than a plaything, dead with just a stomp of his foot.
Boom boom boom...
Suddenly, the ground collapsed, and a surge of demonic energy leaped up and merged into the Black Mastiff Demon's body.
"Hahaha, human, your doomsday is here," the Black Mastiff Demon laughed wildly.
However, after that surge of demonic energy, everything returns to calm.
Inside the Demon Control Department, there was an eerie silence.
The smile on the face of the Black Mastiff Demon suddenly froze, as his eyes filled with disbelief.
"How... how could this be... where are the corpses?" The Black Mastiff Demon roared in disbelief.
Under its secret technique, there was no reaction from the demon corpses beneath the Demon Control Department.
How could this be possible?
Logically speaking, those demonic corpses should have been transformed, with the demonic energy soaring and shaking the town of Peace.
"Is... is it empty down there?" The Big Black Mastiff stared with wide eyes, looking utterly incredulous.
Even in death, it would never have imagined that the demonic corpses had already been offered to the Ancestral Founder by Zhou Dao.
Over the past two years, there had been virtually none left, not even two strands of hair.
As for the so-called ashes of the burnt demons, they had long been replaced by Zhou Dao with lime in secret.
"How... how could this be..." The Big Black Mastiff was completely panicked.
He never thought that this would be the outcome.
Zhou Dao silently watched, somewhat helpless.
In this world, there are always people or demons who, in various ways, seek their own demise.
Hum...
Zhou Dao raised his hand, and the Crimson Spirit Peach Sword flew out, wrapped in vigorous blood energy, directly piercing the head of the Big Black Mastiff.
Blood spurted from the hole like a pillar, splashing demonic blood everywhere.
The body of the Big Black Mastiff quickly shrank, returning to its original form, as it completely lost its vitality, its eyes filled with fear and reluctance.
Zhou Dao didn't even look as he raised his hand, directly putting it into the Green Coiling Treasure Bag.
At this moment, Yuan Shaobai was cowering in the corner, completely terrified.
Zhou Dao's strength made him feel infinitely afraid, as he was so terrifying that even killing a demon of Big Black Mastiff's level only took one move.
Although he possessed the Refining Realm Sixth Transformation, in front of Zhou Dao, he was no different from a cultivator of a different level.
"I... I was wrong..." Yuan Shaobai made a clicking sound in his throat.
Zhou Dao expressionlessly walked in front of him.
"Man does not live with demons, dragons do not dwell with snakes... Be a human in your next life!"
With a light sigh, Zhou Dao's right hand came down, striking Yuan Shaobai's Heavenly Spirit directly on his head.
With a miserable scream, he fell down rigidly.
Although Zhou Dao kept a low profile, he was never soft-hearted.
This was him!
Slaying demons and killing humans!
