Chapter 368 -314: Profiting from Chaos, Devouring Spiritual Treasures, Part 2

Two Demons in Xu Chang’an’s team were also hit.

Fortunately, their lives were not in danger.

They retracted their Demon Sense and unleashed their Primordial Spirit Power to protect themselves. Coupled with the gray fog obstructing their vision, the speed of their investigation slowed drastically.

PSH! PSH! PSH!

From within the gray fog, a white slime suddenly shot out.

The slime moved extremely fast, but the Demons’ reactions were equally swift.

The Demons brandished their Dao-Protecting Spiritual Treasures one after another; some also used Demon Talismans and Demon Patterns.

There were even some Demons with Talent Divine Techniques who revealed their true forms!

Their true forms were enormous, instantly exuding an overwhelming, ferocious might.

But…

Their massive true forms were like giant targets, and the white slime easily sprayed onto their bodies.

The moment the white slime began to corrode them, these Demons who relied on their tough Demon Bodies instantly sensed that something was terribly wrong.

The power of this white slime seemed even more terrifying than they had anticipated.

“Such intense corrosive power!”

“Be careful!”

“…”

Although Xu Chang’an was extremely fast, a huge amount of white slime was shooting out from the gray fog.

After dodging for a few moments, Xu Chang’an was inevitably hit by the white slime.

His Demon Body and Spirit were comparable to a Top-Grade Spiritual Treasure. Though the corrosive power of the white slime was strong, it still couldn’t harm him.

Xu Chang’an also discovered that the white slime didn’t just affect his physical body; his Power of the Protective Primordial Spirit and even his Demon Sense were also being corroded.

Moreover, once corroded, the toxins within the white slime would spread at a terrifyingly fast rate.

Even when using a Spiritual Treasure for protection, the treasure’s Spirituality would also be contaminated by the slime.

‘What is this stuff?’

Xu Chang’an wondered.

Once he confirmed that his Demon Body and Spirit could withstand the white slime, he felt reassured.

Without using his Primordial Thunder Armor, Xu Chang’an dodged when he could and simply endured it when he couldn’t.

However, not all Demons possessed a physique as terrifyingly resilient as Xu Chang’an’s.

Even those Demons who transformed into their true forms, relying on their tough physiques, were completely on the defensive and looked miserable under the barrage of white slime.

The assault of white slime slowed slightly.

Just when everyone thought they were about to get through it…

Yellow and blue slime suddenly appeared in the gray fog.

“Not good!”

“This…”

“Damn it! Damn it!”

“AHH— AHH—”

“…”

In an instant, miserable screams rang out from the gray fog.

Xu Chang’an was also unfortunate enough to be hit by a spray of blue slime.

The corrosiveness and toxicity of this blue slime were more than ten times that of the white slime from before.

However, the blue slime only managed to break through his Power of the Protective Primordial Spirit. It was still helpless against his Demon Body and Spirit, which was comparable to a Top-Grade Spiritual Treasure!

Xu Chang’an could withstand it, but the other Demons were not so lucky.

In just a few moments, of the fifteen Demons in Xu Chang’an’s team, only six remained.

The other Demons had died under the yellow and blue slime!

The amount of yellow and blue slime seemed limited. After just one wave of attacks, no more slime shot out from the gray fog.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xu Chang’an’s figure flickered, and he instantly collected the Storage Bracelets and Body-Protecting Spiritual Treasures from several of the fallen Demons.

These Spiritual Treasures were mostly Middle-Grade Spiritual Treasures. Although they had been contaminated and lost much of their Spirituality, they were still quite valuable.

Xu Chang’an wanted to continue collecting, but the other surviving Demons were doing the same thing.

In but a moment, the corpses of the Demons on the field had vanished.

For Demons who had reached the Late-stage Void Refining, their own corpses were also extremely valuable.

They had a great many uses!

Even though they were all part of the Demon Race, they were adept at doing such things.

“Are you alright?”

Xu Chang’an asked Chu Xianyi with concern.

Although he had confidence in Chu Xianyi, the power of the blue slime’s attack had just approached the very limit of the Void Refining Realm.

Caught off guard, even a Harmonization Demon Race member would suffer a great loss.

“I’m fine.”

Chu Xianyi’s expression remained serene, her posture elegant.

“The ones that just attacked should be Full-bodied Demon Evil Cyan Dragon Worms! And quite a number of them!”

“Mm.”

Xu Chang’an nodded. He had sensed it just now as well.

After this wave of attacks, the surviving Demons of their team became even more cautious.

They walked gingerly through the gray fog, afraid of making the slightest sound.

One Demon even brought out a Void Refining Puppet to scout ahead.

However, the fog was extremely corrosive, and the Energy consumed by the Void Refining Puppet as it moved through it was astonishing.

They walked through the gray fog in absolute silence.

Suddenly, a loud noise echoed from nearby.

The minds of the Demons present instantly tensed.

“It’s not us!”

“It’s another squad!”

“I wonder how many more Demons have fallen.”

“…”

Time slowly passed. The team Xu Chang’an was in continued to move up the Ancient Verdant Wood.

Their pace was not fast, but they were making steady progress upward.

“It’s been so long, and we still haven’t found the Demon Evil Cyan Dragon Worms! They’re damn good at hiding!”

“This Ancient Verdant Wood is their territory. Of course we can’t find them!”

Some Demons secretly communicated using their Demon Sense.

“We caught one! It’s a Full-bodied Demon Evil Cyan Dragon Worm!”

“Hahaha, we finally got one!”

“Hurry and provide support!”

“…”

Suddenly, a loud voice rang out from the gray fog.

“They’ve shown themselves!”

“Let’s go, to support them!”

“Hurry! If we’re late, the other Demons will beat us to it!”

Some of the Demons were overjoyed.

Their mission was simply to extract the Evil Qi from the back of a Full-bodied Demon Evil Cyan Dragon Worm.

As long as they completed the mission, they could leave this dangerous place sooner.
