HPDBC Chapter 363 Big Fish
Chapter 363 Big Fish
"Whoosh!"
Alkaid blinked.
He appeared directly above a small city that spanned no more than three thousand miles.
At that moment, the entire city seemed to have fallen into a deep slumber.
Everyone's face was pale, suffering from terrible nightmares.
Countless terrifying thoughts born from these nightmares rose steadily and converged in the sky above the city into a Cave Heaven.
This Cave Heaven appeared like a mirage or a light screen, incessantly devouring the thoughts born from the horrific dreams, and similarly draining the essence, energy, and spirit of the city's inhabitants.
Following this trend, within at most ten days, all cultivators in the city would die from being drained of their essence, energy, and spirit due to intense emotional changes.
As for nearly a million ordinary people living in this city...
Demon Cultivators had arrived in this small city about a day or two ago, and ordinary people simply couldn't last that long; they had already died from exhaustion of their essence, energy, and spirit.
Upon reaching the airspace above the city, Alkaid waved his hand, and the Cave Heaven enveloping the city's sky was torn open as if it had been struck by a blade of divine retribution.
The sudden attack startled the heart of this Hollow Void Demon Cultivator.
"Vice Sect Leader of the Heavenly Dao Sect, Alkaid!?"
At the moment he recognized Alkaid, the Hollow Void did not dare to continue the fierce confrontation.
The moment the Cave Heaven was torn apart, he seemed to have used a certain life-saving secret technique; the Void appeared like boiling steam, rapidly dispersing into nothingness, turning into two misty forms about to fly away into the distance.
The Demonic Path is formless.
Almost every Demon Cultivator lacks a fixed form, which is why they can immediately alter their shape when attacked.
However...
While such techniques afford them a considerable advantage over lower-level cultivators, they are of little use against those who command the power of the Void, like the Hollow Void.
Especially for someone like Alkaid, who had planted a Void Dao Seed and attained Void Refinement.
As the Hollow Void Demon Cultivator turned into two clouds of demonic mist trying to escape and flee, Alkaid's Cave Heaven manifested.
With a motion of his hand, the power of the Cave Heaven was projected, planting a black hole node in the two clouds of demonic mist, beginning to crazily devour them.
Although the demonic mist also contained the characteristics of the Void, and could even warp space, it was quickly refined in the presence of Alkaid's power from the Cave Heaven.
The entire scene resembled a black hole swallowing two stars, except these were stars made of demonic mist.
No matter how the Hollow Void Demon Cultivator struggled, he could only watch as his true form rapidly fell into Alkaid's "Cave Heaven."
"Damn it!"
Facing a life-and-death crisis, the Demon Cultivator made a decisive choice on the spot.
The demonic mist seemed to turn into sheer darkness, shielding everything around it, such that even the power of Alkaid's Cave Heaven seemed masked by this darkness, making it difficult to pinpoint his true form.
"A Lifebound Daoist Art born from the Darkness Dao?"
Alkaid's expression remained unchanged.
The light of the True Spirit shone forth.
Under the illumination of the True Spirit's Light, the Cave Heaven shrouded by the Darkness Dao's concealment clearly captured the location of this demon cultivator's true body.
The next moment, he took a step into the void, and amidst the blinking of the void, he appeared directly above the demon cultivator's true body. The Cave Heaven materialized, pulling him and even the space surrounding him into it.
"How is that possible? Even those in the Void Refinement Realm can hardly detect my Darkness without form. It's for this reason that the sect allowed me to infiltrate the Southern Region... you actually..."
This demon cultivator of the Hollow Void was both shocked and furious, his body, formed from demonic mist, constantly shifting, trying every possible way to escape from the refinement of the Cave Heaven.
But...
As the operation of Alkaid's Cave Heaven became more vigorous, the demon cultivator could only watch helplessly as more and more of his true body was refined, becoming a part of Alkaid's Cave Heaven.
"Stop! Alkaid, if you kill me, you will completely offend our Yin Moon Sect! Your Heavenly Dao Sect leader has always had a tradition of suppressing prominent vice sect leaders. With the sect leader watching intently, and offending our Yin Moon Sect both internally and externally, your position as the master of the Southern Region will soon come to an end!"
This demon cultivator's Divine Sense continuously struck through the demonic mist, "Spare me, and I can ask my sect not to make a move against your Southern Region anymore. We could even join forces to jointly confront Zong Wenxian!"
Throughout the world, unless he encountered a Dao Lord or a Demon Cultivator completely counteracting his Void Blink, everywhere under heaven was accessible to him.
...
In less than half an hour, the Void Disk bearing Alkaid had already appeared outside Mengzhou City.
"Hm?"
Upon reaching Mengzhou City, Alkaid sensed something.
Danger.
There was danger lurking inside this city.
However...
"The danger is not strong! If I'm not mistaken, could there be a Refining Void Demon Cultivator hidden within?"
Alkaid pondered slightly.
These Demon Cultivators had clearly investigated the martial forces around him.
Apart from him, the strongest was Qi Sha.
If a Hollow Void Demon Cultivator wreaked havoc at the border, he would have sent Qi Sha, a pinnacle Hollow Void who mastered the Great Path of Destruction.
Thus, should Qi Sha receive this message and come to Mengzhou City, a hidden Refining Void would be enough to bury this peak Hollow Void within.
Even...
Even if a Refining Void realm comes here, it doesn't matter.
Within the Yin Moon Sect, there are Refining Voids as well.
Add to that the support of Hollow Void Demon Cultivators on the side...
Whose deer to catch is yet unknown.
"Refining Void... the timing of your arrival is just perfect."
Alkaid tucked away the Void Disk and brought out the Two Realms Ruler.
"The Dao Artifact auction hasn't started yet, and not many Refining Voids have arrived, but already many are stirring up trouble in the Southern Capital, disrupting the order... Ultimately, my deterrent power isn't strong enough. And what better way to boost it than by slaughtering a Refining Void realm Demon Cultivator?"
The next moment, his figure blinked, appearing directly above Mengzhou City.
This city was originally a major city in Mengzhou with a population of several hundred thousand.
If you include mortals, it was home to tens of millions of beings.
But now...
It had already become a city of death.
Countless strands of weaker and stronger Demonic Qi filled every corner of the city like a massive net, or like a gaping maw, seemingly capable of devouring any creature that fell within.
Even Alkaid...
In their view, was no exception.
"Buzz buzz!"
The moment Alkaid appeared above Mengzhou City, several Divine Senses vibrated simultaneously.
"Void Shuttle technique!? A big fish is hooked!"
"Wait, let me see who this is! Vice Sect Leader of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and Lord of the Southern Region, Alkaid!? Hahahaha! A big fish! This is truly a big fish!"
"Lord of the Evil Eye, your fishing method, though simple, has directly drawn out the hidden gem of the Heavenly Dao Sect in the Southern Region."
When these Divine Senses "saw" the identity of the newcomer, they all displayed irrepressible excitement.
Soon, a creature resembling a human, but with six arms and three pairs of eyes, appeared above the city.
The energy fluctuations emanating from his body caused ripples in the Void, clearly indicating he was a Refining Void!
A Refining Void Demon Cultivator!
