166. Chapter 166 – Witch Demon!
Chapter 166 – Witch Demon!
When Zhao Yi rode Taotie to Mount Sumeru, he clearly felt a difference here.
Hui Yan was gone.
Zhao Yi remembered that when he was on his way out, this ambitious monk was busy rebuilding the Little Leiyin Temple, but Zhao Yi’s divine sense swept through the entire Mount Sumeru and he couldn’t find any trace of Hui Yan.
There were two possibilities for this situation.
One was that he had temporarily left, or he was dead.
Zhao Yi felt that the second possibility was the most likely, as he smelled a corpse-like odor in the air similar to that of a corpse after it had decomposed.
This kind of smell Zhao Yi hadn’t smelled anywhere else, and even on demonic cultivators who practiced demonic skills, they didn’t smell this bad.
Zhao Yi guessed that it should be the necromancers of the magic world.
Those people dealt with corpses all year round and were surrounded by undead creatures, so it was normal for their bodies to be tainted with the corpse odor.
Zhao Yi remembered the undead rules that controlled the skeleton warriors in the Pagoda Secret Realm, the skeletons in there gave even Zhao Yi a headache.
If the ones who came over from the other dimensional worlds were really necromancers, then it wouldn’t be strange at all for Hui Yan to die in the hands of the other side.
“Taotie, find the source of the stench.”
Knowing that he was here to find someone this time, Zhao Yi specifically brought Taotie with him when he left.
On one hand, Taotie had a strong regeneration ability and wasn’t afraid of fighting a battle of attrition.
Even if it was cut down to just a head, as long as it still had a breath, its body could grow back.
On the other hand, Taotie were famous for their greed and appetite, and their sense of smell was incomparably sharp.
When Taotie was in the Prince’s residence, the cooks didn’t even dare to steal ingredients.
Because no one could hide from the Taotie’s nose, even if they stuffed sausages into the valleys, they couldn’t escape its tracking.
Hearing Zhao Yi’s order, Taotie agreed and sniffed his nose in the air, quickly locking onto the source of the stench.
“Master, the stench is coming from there!”
Zhao Yi looked in the direction Taotie’s paw was pointing and realized that there was a stone wall.
If the male lord was here he would be able to recognize it, that stone wall was the same stone wall where he had picked the Rohan Fruit on Mount Sumeru in the Pagoda Secret Realm.
In reality, there were obviously other places within this stone wall as well, or else that necromancer from the magic world wouldn’t have gone into that stone wall in the first place after he descended.
“So it’s in the stone, no wonder my divine sense couldn’t sweep him.”
Zhao Yi glanced at that stone wall, brought Taotie back a kilometer, then found a millstone-sized rock from the ground and violently smashed it towards that stone wall with force.
Zhao Yi was so powerful that the distance of a kilometer of ground was no different from being face-to-face to him, but it would give him a sufficient buffer to avoid all possible sneak attacks.
The boulder whistled, crossing the distance of space in almost an instant before smashing heavily into the stone wall.
Boom!
Zhao Yi could feel the tremor under his feet even when he was standing a kilometer away.
A kilometer away, smoke and dust rolled out, and the entire mountain seemed to be shaking, as if the mountain might collapse at any moment.
At this moment, Taotie, who was lying at Zhao Yi’s feet, suddenly stood up.
Its eyes widened, and its large, ugly long face was filled with a disgusted look.
“Master, that stinky thing came out. Vomit, how could there be something that stinks, it’s even more disgusting than stinky tofu!”
Taotie wasn’t a picky eater, he could eat any shit.
Stinky tofu was the only food it couldn’t accept.
Taotie compared the necromancer to stinky tofu, and it looked like it was truly disgusted.
Zhao Yi ignored Taotie as he kept his gaze fixed on the stone wall.
In the rolling dust and smoke, a short, gray-black figure rushed out from where the stone wall had collapsed.
The gray-black figure flew out from the smoke and dust and immediately saw Zhao Yi standing in the distance.
It let out a strange cry like a large bat, staring at its small grayish-white mung bean eyes, and pounced towards Zhao Yi in a ferocious manner.
“Damned lower realm bug, how dare you sneak up on the noble Witch Demon Lord Sachiel, I’m going to make you into a zombie and make you suffer the most brutal torture in the world!”
Witch demon?
Zhao Yi looked at the short, gray-black figure and lost interest.
He could see that this Witch Demon was at least at the 10th Order Return to Void Realm or above.
Its flesh was very strong, it should have been soaked in a specialized potion, and the mountain collapse that was so violent just now didn’t even hurt him in the slightest.
Zhao Yi remembered that Witch Demons didn’t seem to be very good at necromancy, and what they were proud of was their undead bodies, as well as their extremely fast speeds and physical strength that far exceeded that of humans.
If he had met someone else, he probably wouldn’t have been able to do anything about it.
For example, Hui Yan, for example, had been restrained to death by it.
But when it met Zhao Yi, a player of the same type, it just ran into a gun.
The distance was getting closer and closer, and a weird and ugly smile appeared on the dried and ugly face of the Witch Demon Sachiel, and the claws of its hands opened up, revealing its sharp nails.
As if he had smelled the aroma of Zhao Yi’s rolling hot blood, Sachiel couldn’t help but lick his lips and kept his gaze fixed on Zhao Yi’s neck, as if he couldn’t help but start feasting on it already.
“You lower world bug smells so good, Lord Sachiel has changed his mind! I’m not going to kill you, I’m going to raise you and brew a fine wine with your blood, the taste must be very intoxicating . Gah?”
While Sachiel was immersed in his fantasy and unable to extricate himself, he suddenly felt his neck tighten, and then he was lifted up by something.
It froze for a moment and instantly came back to its senses, then it saw that stupid lower world bug from before coldly gazing at it.
Witch demons didn’t need to breathe, so they weren’t affected even if their necks were grabbed.
What it was surprised by was Zhao Yi’s speed.
“How is it possible?”
A trace of humanized doubt appeared in the small grayish green eyes of the Sachiel.
“How could your speed be so fast? Could it be that you’re a Dou Shen who has broken through to the tenth rank?”
“Impossible, the barrier of this world was sealed by the gods joining forces, how could you possibly break through! If you weren’t a Dou Shen, it’s not like your speed could be this fast!”
“Damn it, those bastards punked me. They said this trip was to pick up a bargain, but it turned out to be for me to die!”
Sachiel’s neck was being lifted by Zhao Yi, so he could only raise his head with difficulty.
It tilted its head and looked at Zhao Yi, its parched face trying to put on a sincere expression, “This Dou Shen, I surrender! I can cooperate with you, and I’m willing to tell you everything I know going in!”
Zhao Yi looked at the Witch Demon in his hand with a smirking expression on his face.
He shook his head and snorted, “No wonder necromancers are disliked, you dirty, ugly and vile obscene things are indeed disgusting.”
When Zhao Yi finished speaking, he glanced at the palm of his hand around the witch demon’s neck, and then at the witch demon Sachiel, seeing its eyes growing restless, he smiled and asked, “Trying to stall for time? Are you waiting for me to die of poison?”
When Sachiel heard this, its eyes instantly rounded, “How do you”
“How did I know?” Zhao Yi raised his hand to interrupt it, “It’s not like it’s a secret that a Witch Demon’s body is highly poisonous, how could I not know?”
After saying that, Zhao Yi shook his head, “They say that Witch Demons are cunning, but now it seems to be nothing more than that. Since I dared to make a move, how could I not have any defense at all? You stupid bastard wouldn’t think that I’m as brainless as you are, right?”
Sachiel’s eyes finally changed.
It was devoid of the cowardice it had disguised before, revealing the ferocity and viciousness of an undead creature.
Sachiel terrorized Zhao Yi, “I’m affiliated with the Lord Sage of Time, if you dare to kill me, the Lord Sage of Time won’t let you go if he knows about it!”
Zhao Yi nodded and said thoughtfully, “Is it that dangerous? Then just don’t let him know!”
After finishing his sentence, Zhao Yi casually snapped the neck of the Witch Demon and threw it to Taotie.
“Eat it!”
Taotie subconsciously held the witch demon down with a claw.
A strange thing happened.
The Witch Demon was an undead creature of the 10th Order Return to Void Realm, and Taotie was only of the 8th Order Entering the Sacred Realm.
According to strength, the Witch Demon should have been able to hang on to Taotie.
But when Taotie’s claws pressed down on the Witch Demon, the Witch Demon directly froze, like a rabbit caught by a hawk, not even having the courage to resist in front of its natural enemy.
“This, what the hell is this?”
Sachiel was truly scared this time.
It smelled the scent of death on Taotie.
This was unimaginable for a witch demon that had survived for tens of thousands of years.
Taotie ignored Saqir.
It pressed down on Saqir with one paw, controlling it to keep it from moving, while saying to Zhao Yi with a bitter face, “Master, can I not eat it? This thing stinks, it smells disgusting!”
Zhao Yi smiled and said, “It’s like stinky tofu, it smells bad but tastes good!”
When Taotie heard stinky tofu, his narrow, ugly face became even more bitter.
Seeing that it was grumbling and couldn’t possibly make a move, Zhao Yi said in a bad mood, “What the hell are you still gawking at? This is a 10th level Void Returning Realm Undead Witch Demon, do you understand the concept of 10th level Void Returning Realm? No one in your Taotie clan has ever eaten anything this advanced!”
Tenth Order Void Return Realm?
Hearing this, Taotie finally lifted his spirits.
It opened its mouth and carefully bit towards the witch demon’s claws.
When Sachiel saw this, a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, “Old me’s flesh is soaked in Lord Sage of Time’s precious medicine, invulnerable to swords, spears, water, and fire, and you, a lower realm bug, want to eat old me, so be careful of disintegrating you, huh?”
Sachiel was halfway through his sentence, then Taotie opened his mouth and directly bit off half of its arm.
Taotie had Saqir’s arm in his mouth, and when he heard his words, he turned his head to look at it and asked suspiciously, “What did you just say?”
“Monster!”
Sachiel was a Witch Demon, and didn’t feel any pain when his arm was bitten off, the reason why it screamed in fear was mainly because Taotie had easily destroyed its proudest body causing it a huge trauma on its mind.
Zhao Yi looked at the witch demon himself as a monster but pointed at Taotie and screamed monster, finding this scene very funny.
Zhao Yi looked at Taotie and saw that it was holding the witch demon’s arm in its mouth, so he raised his leg and kicked it.
“What are you still waiting for, hurry up and finish it off, there’s still something going on over at the Crown Prince’s residence!”
The Purple Heavenly Thunder wound was almost healed, it would be unleashed at any time next.
There wasn’t much time left for Zhao Yi!
