Chapter 14: The Great General Qing Yan

  Sorry, I had something to attend to this morning and just got back, so it's a bit late.

  This book is currently being serialized on A Signed Contract and will absolutely not be discontinued, so feel free to collect it with confidence.

  "What, the Silver Belt Great General at the peak of the 7th layer of Body Refining was killed by this demon? How is this possible? The Silver Belt Great General is an absolutely invincible peerless demon below the 8th layer of Body Refining!"

  "The Silver Ribbon Grandmaster was actually killed at the moment of breaking through to the eighth layer of Body Refining, while his opponent was only a small demon in the sixth layer of Body Refining. This is simply an impossible thing!"

  "Everyone be careful, this demon beast has completely gone mad and probably won't let us off. We should ask the Eightfold Body Refining Great General to take action, and with one move, kill it!"

  "That's right, this demon is extremely ferocious. Except for the strong practitioners who have cultivated their bodies to the eighth level of the Strong Demon Beast, I'm afraid no one can stop it. We must ask General Qingyu or General Qingyan to take action in order to kill this demon instantly."

  Four demonic beasts under Jin Chan Wang's command saw Xiao Ji kill the Silver Ribbon Grand Marshal and were suddenly frightened out of their wits.

  "Unexpectedly, this green snake can actually kill the Silver Ribbon Great General, it's truly the strongest under the Eightfold Refining Body, the first demon general."

  "No, I thought I would die in this war, but I didn't expect that our side's demon beast would produce such a stunning genius. With just six layers of body refinement, it can kill the peak seven-layered demon beast, and it may even have a chance to compete for the top spot in the Supreme Demon Dao Divine Ability realm."

  "Yao Dao Shen Tong? That's a legendary realm that masters earth, water, wind, fire, metal, and lightning, possessing unfathomable power. Even the invincible nine-realm body-refining demon king of the spirit world looks up to this realm. Can this green snake really reach such heights?"

  Three Water Ape Kings, one of the seven heavy-bodied Yao beasts, whispered to each other. At this moment, they could no longer feel the huge pressure as before. The four peerless Yao beasts on the enemy's side had their attention completely focused on Xiao Ji, and they didn't care about the three of them at all, so they were greatly relieved at the moment.

  "That guy actually killed the Silver Ribbon Grand Chieftain, I'm afraid he's really the number one demon beast below the Eighth Layer of Body Refining."

  "Hmph, what's it to you? Daring to be an enemy of mine, the great Golden Toad King, will only lead to your own death!"

  A green fish as big as a small mountain and a ten-foot-long green toad of the same size looked at each other.

  "Haha, your subordinates are completely useless. This time, I'm afraid that green snake on our side has killed them all."

  "That's right, Cyan Toad and Cyan Fish Generals! Even if one of you becomes an unparalleled Silver Belted Great General, you still won't be able to contend with our demonic beasts. Even a sixth-level Refining Body demonic beast can completely annihilate all the lower-ranking demonic beasts on your side!"

  The two demon beasts that fought against Jin Chan and Qing Yu, the two great generals, were two swordfish, one blue and one brown, also in the realm of a strong demon beast with eightfold body refinement.

  "Hmph, just now we two didn't want to engage with the younger generation, which is why you had the chance to rescue those three useless Seventh-Order Cultivators. Now I'll take action myself and wipe out all of your demonic beasts!" Qing Chan's bulging eyes were sinister beyond compare, his voice as thick as a bell.

  "Where are the four great marshals?"

  The giant toad general fought against the brown swordfish while turning his head and letting out a loud roar.

  "What instructions does General Qing Yan have?"

  The four voices responded in unison, these four demon beasts who had cultivated their bodies to the seventh level deeply knew the cruelty and terror of General Qing Yan, if they were slightly careless, they would likely be killed.

  "Alright, you few work together with Qing Yu Da Jiang to hold off Hei Jian Da Jiang and Qing Jian Da Jiang for a moment. I'll take care of that little snake and the three Lian Ti Qi Zhong Yao Shou on the enemy's side in an instant!"

  The giant toad's voice was loud and clear, but it revealed an unparalleled ferocity and terror of cruelty.

  "Yes."

  Even if they knew that facing the enemy's eight-layered demonic beast would be a nine-death-one-life situation, these four seven-layered demonic beasts still did not dare to disobey General Qing Yan's order.

  "Brother Green Fish, don't hold back anymore, go all out!"

  The Azure General glanced back with both eyes, looking at the Azure Fish General who was fighting against the Azure Sword General.

  "Alright, in order to hasten the completion of the great king's command, I had no choice but to exert myself to the fullest."

  The green fish general lazily responded with a single word, his eyes gleaming brightly as his entire aura suddenly surged more than twice!

  "What!? You still have a trump card?! Not good, quickly let that green snake escape, this green fish general is probably really able to hold off our two generals!" The Green Sword General's eyes were full of incredulity as he suddenly bellowed at the Brown Sword General. He had thought that what the Green Toad General said was impossible, even if there were many more seventh-level demonic beasts, they wouldn't be able to withstand the attack of an eighth-level demonic beast. However, if the Green Fish General could single-handedly take on two opponents, and with four seventh-level demonic beasts intercepting from the side, it would absolutely be possible to hold off their two generals!

  "What!" Brown Sword General was also shocked and dodged the attack of Qing Yan General, trying to remind Xiao Ji to quickly escape.

  "Hmph, useless! Even if you remind him, with his speed of escape, it's fundamentally impossible for him to outrun my pursuit and killing! The difference in speed between a Seventh-Order Refiner and an Eighth-Order Refiner beast should be clear to you. Everything is futile!"

  The Azure General Qing Yan sneered and continued his relentless assault on the Brown Sword General.

  "That's right, even if the green snake escapes now, it can't stop General Qing Yan's pursuit. However, as long as I can hold off General Qing Yan, I can save the green snake's life. As long as the green snake doesn't die, one day our side will have two invincible demon beasts at the ninth level of body refinement, and even a peerless great demon at the divine realm, that day is worth waiting for!"

  The General of the Brown Sword secretly made a move in his heart and made up his mind.

  "Boom!"

  At this moment, a huge voice came over.

  It turned out that the Green Fish General burst out with a terrifying power, instantly knocking the Green Sword General flying, shattering several small hills, and the shocking force was truly unimaginable.

  "Leave this one to me, you go kill those few small fry first, then join forces to take down these two."

  The body of the Azure Fish General suddenly expanded, as if it could burst through the seawater, and in an instant appeared hundreds of feet away, sending the Brown Sword General flying back dozens of feet as he was about to engage with the Azure Toad General.

  The Azure General gazed at the four Seventh-Order Refining Body Demon Beasts that had already surrounded him, and nodded his head.

  With a backward leap, Qingtuan General jumped out of a hundred feet away, his tongue stretched out like a divine arrow, piercing through the three Water Ape Kings and one side of the seven-layered demonic beast. These three demonic beasts had long been exhausted and could not escape, watching themselves being killed by Qingtuan General!

  "It's really weak, maybe that guy can bring me some surprises."

  The green toad general retracted his tongue and turned to look at Xiao Ji, who had already stopped in his tracks, revealing a cruel smile.

  Xiao Ji had already stopped in his tracks when he was on the side of Jin Chan Wang, and even though his current power made him invincible among those who had cultivated their bodies to the seventh level, he was fundamentally unable to contend with a demonic beast that had cultivated its body to the eighth level.

  Refined Body Eightfold Refining Essence Realm, with strength equivalent to that of ten ancient giant elephants. Although it seems similar to Xiao Ji's seven-headed giant elephant's strength, the actual combat power is vastly different.

  The physique, tendons and bones, defense etc. of the 8th layer of body refinement are not comparable to those of the 7th layer. It's like steel and stone, under the same size, the weight difference is not that big. But if steel and stone collide violently, the steel may not leave a mark, while the stone may be crushed into powder!

  This is the level of a Seventh-Order or Eighth-Order Body Refining strong demonic beast, and it's fundamentally impossible to resist.

  Although so, Xiao Ji thought that escaping with his life from a cultivator of the eighth level of the Refining Body stage was relatively easy. Whether it was his own power approaching that of the eighth level or the internal energy path of the Dragon and Tiger Fierce Bone Fist, both could greatly increase his strength, allowing him to escape with his life from a strong cultivator of the eighth level of the Refining Body stage.

  The giant toad leaped forward, suddenly appearing ten zhang in front of Xiao Ji. Its massive body, like a small mountain, gazed down at Xiao Ji's tiny form, which seemed as insignificant as an earthworm in its eyes.

  "You little thing, you actually killed my Silver Ribbon Great General, it's simply outrageous. Dying at the hands of me, Qing Yan Great General, today can be said to be your greatest honor!" Qing Yan Great General looked down on Xiao Ji with a condescending gaze, as if being killed by him was a great honor for Xiao Ji.

  "That silver ribbon fish also said so, and yet it was so vulnerable to attack. Are you really sure that you won't end up like that silver ribbon fish and be killed by me?"

  Xiao's expression didn't change, he lightly replied with a single word, but his heart was already tightly strung, ready to strike at any moment!

  "How dare you! You're just a tiny, six-stage cultivator, someone I can crush with one hand, and yet you speak to me like this?! Not only will I kill you, but I'll also slaughter all the other demonic beasts connected to you, as punishment for your offense against me!"

  The giant toad general let out a loud roar, his long tongue shooting out of his mouth like a sharp sword, instantly striking the location where Xiao Ji was.

  Xiao Ji had long been prepared, and as soon as Qing Chan's tongue was about to strike, he began to dodge. However, even so, the tip of Qing Chan's tongue still grazed Xiao Ji's skin, and Xiao Ji could even feel the powerful force of the seawater waves piercing through him.

  "Boom!"

  A deafening sound shook the air, and the land that Xiao Ji had just flashed through was blasted out of a five-foot-wide hole by this powerful force, with no bottom in sight.

  "The power is so terrifying, and the speed is actually so fast, it's probably more than twice mine!" Xiao Ji was shocked in his heart, if this attack hit him directly, he would probably die on the spot, with no chance of survival.

  "Not bad, you were actually able to dodge my one move, but that's all there is to it, you will definitely die today!" Qing Chan Da Jiang withdrew his tongue and let out a thick and heavy voice.

  With a light leap, the giant toad sprang up and burst towards Xiao Ji's head, its massive palm slapping down on his skull with incredible speed that even Xiao Ji couldn't react in time!

  Rumble, rumble, rumble...

  The giant toad's powerful palms slapped against the stone ground below, sending out a massive shockwave that seemed as if it would destroy the heavens and annihilate the earth!

  "Hmph! With a single blow from me at full strength, you're definitely going to die without a doubt!"
