Catching Monsters

Chapter 416 Transformation into Demon
Meanwhile, in a pavilion quite far from Haiyan City, Dong Qiaofeng was leading a dozen or so experts, waiting there.

Soon, Leng Liuer could be seen moving nimbly on the roof.

And Xiao Jingfu was with him.

This is the location we agreed upon in advance.

After entering the attic, Leng Liuer put Xiao Jingfu on the ground, then looked back and her eyebrows furrowed.

At this moment, an extremely large demonic mist has enveloped the entire square and is still expanding. Furthermore, on the streets below, many rebel soldiers are rushing in that direction.

Then, thunderclaps suddenly appeared in the sky, flashing and striking the demonic mist.

Leng Liuer knew that Jiang Yun was fighting against that demon named Sun Wuji.

Sun Wuji's strength has probably reached the peak of the third rank.

Although they are both at the third rank, a cultivator like Leng Liuer, who has just entered the third rank, would probably not last even the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before being defeated.

Just then, Xiao Jingfu, who had just been rescued, also looked somewhat shaken. He quickly asked, "Are you from the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Eastern Garrison?"

"What are we doing here? Let's leave Haiyan City quickly," Xiao Jingfu said with worry.

Leng Liuer calmly said, "Jiang Yun hasn't withdrawn yet, I'll go help him first."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingfu's expression darkened slightly; he wished Jiang Yun would die in this godforsaken place.

If it weren't for Jiang Yun, I wouldn't have had to leave the capital, be sent by my father to recruit soldiers, or be captured in Haiyan City and suffer all this ordeal.

Hearing this, Leng Liuer was slightly taken aback and subconsciously looked at Xiao Jingfu and asked, "Do you have a grudge against him?"

“Oh, right, I’ve heard about this before,” Leng Liuer said in a deep voice.

"I had previously heard that a prince colluded with the demon race to have two demons assassinate Jiang Yun, but the two demons actually beat the prince severely."

"This sounds a bit outrageous."

At this point, Leng Liuer looked Xiao Jingfu up and down: "I didn't expect it to be you..."

The expressions of the many Imperial Guards in the room changed slightly. Of course they knew about this, but to say it in front of the Fourth Prince would be to embarrass him.

Such matters are best left unsaid and discussed privately.

Only Leng Liuer could ask directly to his face.

Xiao Jingfu took a deep breath and looked at Leng Liuer in front of him, saying, "This is between Jiang Yun and me, it has nothing to do with you. You are young and quite capable. If you don't work for me, then..."

"When someone comes to save you, you wish for them to die."

"Scumbag."

Leng Liuer said coldly, "I don't like talking to scum. Shut up."

Leng Liuer was sharp-tongued, but he treated everyone equally.

Watching Leng Liuer turn and leave, heading towards the demonic mist, Xiao Jingfu was so angry that he trembled slightly.

A hint of resentment flashed in his eyes.

Soon, Xiao Jingfu looked at the many Imperial Guards around him and asked, "Who among you can take responsibility here?"

Dong Qiaofeng quickly stepped forward and respectfully said, "I am Dong Qiaofeng, commander of the Eastern Garrison."

"Very good, take me out of the city quickly." Xiao Jingfu wanted to get up; he didn't want to stay in this godforsaken place for even a minute longer.

Hearing Xiao Jingfu's words, Dong Qiaofeng quickly shook his head: "That won't do, Your Highness. According to the plan, we should continue to lie in ambush here for half an hour, and wait for a large number of troops in the city to rush towards the city before we take the opportunity to leave."

"It would be best if either Lord Jiang or Leng Liuer returned to protect His Highness closely, in order to ensure His Highness's safety."

“What if they both die in there?” Xiao Jingfu pointed to the demonic mist in the distance and said in a deep voice, “Dong Qiaofeng, right? I order you to take me away from this hellhole immediately.”

Dong Qiaofeng looked troubled, but he couldn't resist Xiao Jingfu's order.

Jiang Yun and Leng Liuer, as experts at the third rank, might be able to ignore Xiao Jingfu.

But Dong Qiaofeng is not an option.

……

Within the demonic mist, Jiang Yun, holding a talisman, jumped down from the high platform, where many people lay on the ground.

These people included civilians, members of the Imperial Guard, and rebel soldiers.

They were all unable to withstand the demonic energy of the demonic mist, and collapsed to the ground, overwhelmed by it. "Huff."

Jiang Yun took a deep breath and squinted to look at the surrounding situation.

Sun Wuji hid again and did not show himself, which made Jiang Yun feel that something was wrong.

At that moment, the ground suddenly trembled slightly, and then a crack half a meter wide slowly appeared in the ground.

Then, countless insects began to swarm towards Jiang Yun.

Seeing this, Jiang Yun took out the Samadhi True Fire Talisman, and instantly, the raging flames burned away the Gu worms that attacked him.

It must be said that Sun Wuji's knowledge was quite diverse. He mainly studied demonic arts, but he also had some knowledge of Gu and Taoist arts.

They are indeed difficult to deal with.

However, Jiang Yun's attention was mostly focused on his surroundings; these Gu worms couldn't deal with him.

Its biggest function is to attract one's attention.

Soon, from within the demonic mist, the sound of Sun Wuji chanting incantations slowly rose.

The sounds continued to come from all directions.

Jiang Yun had never heard of this language before, nor could he determine the purpose of the incantation from its words.

Meanwhile, on a rooftop about twenty meters away from Jiang Yun, Sun Wuji sat high above, his eyes able to pierce through the demonic mist and see the surroundings clearly.

Almost everyone in the square who failed to escape in time collapsed unconscious.

The only one still conscious is Jiang Yun.

Sun Wuji chanted incantations, sweat dripping from his forehead. Then, he spat out a mouthful of bright red blood, his hands forming a hand seal, and his pupils slowly turning red.

Immediately afterwards, this demonic energy surged continuously into Sun Wuji's body.

Sun Wuji's body also kept changing.

A new blood-red eyeball grew on his forehead, his teeth became sharp and ferocious, his ears slowly turned pointed, and a pair of thin wings like those of a bat grew from his back.

Magic trick.

This is a very difficult spell to control among evil magic techniques.

It can transform those who practice evil magic into demons.

Those who undergo demonic transformation will experience a significant increase in strength.

However, the drawbacks are also significant.

If this continues for a long time, he will completely transform into a demon, lose his own consciousness, and be completely devoured by the demonic energy.

Transformed into a monster that only knows how to kill.

Jiang Yun could sense the surrounding demonic energy gradually converging in one direction.

Looking again, one sees the terrifying appearance of Sun Wuji transformed into a demon.

"Hoo." Sun Wuji slowly stood up on the roof, raised his finger with sharp nails, pointed at Jiang Yun, and slowly spoke, his voice hoarse and grating: "Die!"

He spread his wings and instantly took flight, hurtling towards Jiang Yun at an alarming speed.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Yun's expression changed slightly:
"Banners hang with precious inscriptions, bringing boundless benefits; all gods protect and guard, and sins are absolved."

"After the prayer flags are lowered and the cloud banners return to the sky, everyone must obey the decree and not delay."

"Urgent as a law."

In an instant, the six yellow talismans in Jiang Yun's hand transformed into yellow banners, sweeping towards Sun Wuji in mid-air, attempting to bind him.

But as soon as these yellow banners got close, Sun Wuji brandished his sharp fingernails and instantly slashed them to pieces.

Then, with unstoppable speed, it charged towards Jiang Yun.

Sun Wuji also stared at Jiang Yun's chest.

In the next instant, Jiang Yun's heart can be extracted!
