Demon King: Hero, don't run away!-Chapter 1277: The Bug Stirs Restlessly
"Where is she? Where is she? I clearly saw her hiding here! Where on earth did she run off to?"
No matter how many times Aslit scanned the narrow space formed by ice cones, she still couldn't find Bai Jin's figure.
Could it be that she used Teleportation Magic to send herself somewhere else?
Through telepathy to contact other Enchanting Demons and through the Magic Array to detect the surroundings, Aslit still couldn't find a trace of Bai Jin, as if she had suddenly vanished.
Using the Magic Array to scan the entire island again, Aslit still didn't find Bai Jin's trace but discovered that in Yang Yu's direction, Benglie Ci Lin had fallen.
Aslit never expected Benglie Ci Lin to fall so quickly,
"It seems it only followed its master for a bit longer. So useless."
Fortunately, after Yang Yu knocked down Benglie Ci Lin, he was surrounded by a large number of Spiny Scale Lizards.
With the Surveillance Magic Array in the sky, Aslit could clearly know Yang Yu's movements.
But Aslit didn't know how long the Spiny Scale Lizards' uprising would last, and she had to hurry to take care of everyone here.
However... the current situation truly left her baffled.
Just when Aslit was at a loss, she suddenly noticed something different about the ice surface beneath her feet.
Stabbing the long knife into the ice surface, cracks spread, and when the cracks reached a certain point, they visibly avoided it.
"No doubt, that guy actually hid under the ice surface!
She left an opening for herself, disappeared under the water when the ice cones blocked my sight, and then filled her sinking hole with ice!
Damn it! Damn it! Cunning thing! Having fought her once, I should have known to be more careful!"
Aslit kicked the ice blocks beneath her fiercely and used the Magic Array in the sky to probe the ice blocks, but there was no sign of expansion.
Bai Jin had sunk into the lake, surely wandering freely within the ice tunnel, continuing to prepare that magic.
As long as she finds the tunnel beneath the ice surface...
Aslit bared her teeth,
"Not enough, the time is definitely not enough. In that case... blow this place up and leave you nowhere to hide!"
Black currents surged from Aslit's feet, gradually enveloping her entire body.
Even though using these black powers this way might damage her body, Aslit couldn't care less.
The fear of failure outweighed her fear of bodily collapse, and the acquired strength was meant to be used!
Just as Aslit was about to unleash her power, a blue stream of light shot through the tunnel Aslit had opened, arriving in front of her, brandishing the blade in hand.
Aslit raised her long knife.
The blue wind and black current collided, the powerful force shattering the ice surface beneath them, cracks extending toward the jutting ice cones.
In an instant, large pieces of ice cones collapsed, crashing around Aslit and crumbling into ice shards.
Aslit glared at the middle-aged man in front of her furiously, "Since my target isn't you, take this chance to get lost! Don't get in my way!
If you interfere, I'll smash you along with this ice mountain!"
Black currents ignited black flames, spreading toward Kula Doreen.
Kula Doreen stood unfazed, letting the black flames spread across him, leaving charred scars, his gaze fixed on Aslit, watching the black currents coursing through her with eyes filled with sorrow:
"Aslit,
look at you now, the power you crave is constantly burning your body!
This force intends to take your life!
The one who gave you this power merely wants to drain you of all value—that kind of person isn't worth serving!"
"Why are you looking at me like that! I don't need your pity! I ended up like this because of my own choices!" Aslit roared, increasing her force.
The black collided with the ice surface, shattering the ice instantaneously into flying shards.
"Will you continue rushing down this wrong path?"
"That's none of your business!"
Aslit shouted over Kula Doreen's voice, retracting her sword blade, once again mercilessly slashing at Kula Doreen.
Despite the burns from Aslit's black flames, Kula Doreen held his long sword tight, repeatedly blocking Aslit's attacks, sparks flying with every clash.
Under the ice, Bai Jin watched it all, the cracks from their battle extending to her fabricated moving "icebox."
Faced with the collision on the ice surface, Bai Jin could do nothing, merely focusing her spirit, gathering the surrounding solidified magic power to quickly finish her magic.
Bai Jin could hear the voices of Kula Doreen and Aslit through the ice.
Though Kula Doreen emphasized that Aslit couldn't return, facing her, he still, like a father, tried to advise her.
But Aslit had fallen too deep.
Bai Jin had decided to deal with Aslit like Yang Yu dealt with Qiuye on the ship.
Since they couldn't make up their minds, she'd clear these obstacles.
"Just a little more! Just a little bit more! Hang in there! Hang in a bit longer."
Gazing at the light gathering at her Magic Wand's tip, Bai Jin constantly whispered to herself, applying psychological pressure.
The Magic Wand Sigh Seed with a curling White Centipede within its old root-like crevices stirred.
The magic Bai Jin wielded was quite exquisite, any mistake would lead to complete failure.
The White Centipede awaited Bai Jin's misstep.
Should Bai Jin err, the black magic unleashed by the girl reckless of bodily harm could still threaten Bai Jin's life to some extent.
That Goddess believer was far away and couldn't possibly assist in time.
Then, the centipede could finally act, teaching her more lethal magic, guiding her to their side, completing unfinished business.
However, the White Centipede was disappointed once more.
As Bai Jin was about to finish her chanting, she added a lubricating technique to the Magic Array, choosing a refined compression spell over a complex penetration technique to conclude.
Within this year, Bai Jin had grown significantly.
This spell of Bai Jin's left the White Centipede in awe.
"Looks like it's still not the time.
Should I make a move?
Forget it...
With her power, she'd surely notice.
Besides... as long as the Goddess believer exists, dangers will be plentiful in the future.
I can sense the 'Gate' technique silently spreading here, soon it will open.
Who knows if this Demon King will come up with any good ideas.
It's unimaginable that this nearly abandoned plan has become our only hope."
The Magic Wand Sigh Seed's White Centipede slowly curled up, forming a tight ball.
The outcome would soon be determined, and it no longer needed to intervene.
