Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 826 - 229: Battle Against the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable! The Heart Demon Mirror Treasure!
Demons and Devils differ from Evil Gods, as both demons and humans are creatures, and looking directly at a demon won’t result in physiological harm. As for psychological harm, that depends on one’s mental fortitude, whether it’s strong enough.
Anyway... even cultivators like Patriarch Liu felt his spirit trembling at this moment!
The deterrence exerted by such a demon made him feel as if he couldn’t move, and his breathing became extremely heavy.
Patriarch Liu felt his throat go dry, and his limbs had a slightly icy sensation.
"How astonishing, how terrifying..." murmured an old envoy standing beside Patriarch Liu.
Unlike Patriarch Liu, the old envoy had the fortune of seeing a demon in his youth.
But that had been merely a demon cub.
This was his first time seeing a full-grown demon.
And such an adult demon seemed to be different from the others.
For its size was truly enormous!
The aura it exuded could influence who knows how many miles around.
Was this demon... forced to reveal its true form by Daoist Fan Wu?
Or had it achieved its goal lurking in the Imperial City, so it didn’t matter whether it revealed its true form?
As an envoy of the Great Yan Dynasty, the old envoy preferred to believe the former.
Because if it were the latter, who knew what kind of chaos it had wreaked within the Great Yan Imperial City?
The actions of such a demon.
Cannot be underestimated!!
"Is this... the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable mentioned by Daoist Fan Wu? It really is an elephant! Except only its head resembles an elephant while its body seems... identical to a human’s," Yun Jiuqing exaggeratedly tilted her head up, staring dumbfounded at the colossal demon before her.
Not only did its body resemble a human’s, but it was even dressed in a Daoist Robe. Such a robe looked rather simple, yet emanated an air of supreme luxury.
Caught in such a peculiar contradiction, Yun Jiuqing felt perplexed; she truly couldn’t understand why a demon would don a Daoist Robe.
"Perhaps this is why it’s known as one of the San Qing Supreme Demons... or perhaps that’s its self-titled claim."
Xing Fengzi spoke up, "If my humble guess is not wrong, this demon compares itself to one of the San Qing."
Yun Jiuqing was utterly astounded; though she came from a family of cultivators and wasn’t a devout believer... it didn’t mean she wasn’t aware of what the San Qing of the Daoist Sect represented.
And precisely because she knew, that’s why she exhibited such an expression, as she exclaimed with wide eyes and slack jaw, "Isn’t it afraid that the real San Qing will find out about its audacity?"
Xing Fengzi said, "Perhaps it truly isn’t afraid. After all, whether it’s the Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, or the Taiqing Daode Tianzun, they probably don’t have the leisure to attend to such a trivial matter."
He didn’t voice out that to these three beings, a demon claiming to be the San Qing...
wouldn’t truly disturb these venerable figures; perhaps they knew, but they likely wouldn’t care.
"Good... good heavens..." Liu Feng couldn’t help but swallow his saliva, murmuring in shock, "Is the demon that our Liu Family provoked such a terrifying being?"
The pain all over his body reminded Liu Feng that he’d narrowly escaped death. Facing such a terrorizing demon, he was actually able to survive a casual strike.
That was no small feat!
...
"Demons! Monsters!" As soon as the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable unabashedly revealed his body, it immediately caused great panic within the Great Yan Imperial City.
Seeing the terrifying size of the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable, the faces of the citizens of Great Yan showed their fear.
Dreadful winds rolled out in all directions, and when those gusts of demonic wind hit them, the citizens of the Great Yan Dynasty felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
Even cultivators struggled to withstand the deterrence of the Laws-Phantom Demon Venerable, let alone these common citizens.
A burly butcher, looking quite fierce, collapsed onto the ground from fright.
Faces etched with fear, they wondered, "How... how can there be monsters in the Imperial City?"
"Monsters, creatures, run!" Someone, pale with terror, didn’t hesitate to turn and scramble away, "Man-eating monsters are coming, man-eating monsters!"
"Isn’t that the Situ Family’s territory over there? Why would such a massive demon appear? Could it be that the Situ Family is actually a demon?!"
"Demons! They are demons!"
"Run, dammit, don’t stand in my way! If you don’t want to run, I do! I want to live!"
"Waah... Mother! Monsters, there are monsters, waaaaah..."
"Run!!!"
