Chapter 207, Destroying the Demon Territory

Upon hearing this, the three demons' expressions turned even uglier. Unfortunately, the halo had also blocked all communication methods, making it impossible to send or receive messages to the outside world.

Only by relying on the essence of the territory can one sense the location of the city, but now one by one they are losing contact, which means that all the high-level demons in the city have been killed.

The other demons are also likely to have suffered heavy losses. No matter the outcome, they will probably be severely weakened!

……

"The next city will be the location of the core of the territory."

Lin Ran stood on the back of the Fiery Bird, with Nangong Yu standing behind him. They glanced at the wasteland ahead but remained silent.

Below them were a large number of demons following, a dark mass flying in the air. Those that couldn't fly didn't come along; it was an elite strategy.

Soon after, a giant castle appeared on the wasteland.

Upon closer inspection, one can see a large number of demons standing around the castle and on the walls, almost completely covering the castle.

The two demons at the very front exuded the aura of the eighth rank, and were the two most powerful demons among all of them.

Lin Ran had the fiery bird land a short distance away, and he approached the city alone.

Nangong Yu remained silent and did not follow. She was not capable enough, and going would only cause trouble.

In front.

Lin Ran walked to a position only a hundred meters away from the two eighth-tier demons and observed them.

After a brief silence, a demon spoke in a deep voice.

"Human, you are too arrogant, you actually dare to..."

"Stop. I don't want to waste my breath on you. I just want to beat you to death."

When the voice rang out,

An eighth-tier demon's expression changed, and it immediately tried to retreat, but it was too late; a fist slammed into its body.

boom!

The eighth-tier demon crashed into the city like a meteor, instantly obliterating buildings, the ground, and some unfortunate demons within a radius of several hundred meters.

Lin Ran, bathed in golden light, stood in the air and looked at another demon. The latter immediately became alert and used defensive measures.

Then, a golden light flashed and struck the demon directly.

The demon wasn't thrown away; it simply lowered its head slowly, coughed up a mouthful of dark blood, and stared in disbelief at the arm piercing its own chest.

It was no match for him!

boom!

Lin Ran's arm jerked, and the demon's body instantly went limp, all its bones shattered, its life force extinguished in an instant, and then it was put away.

Upon seeing this, the eighth-tier demon, who had just gotten up from the ground, turned and ran without hesitation.

However, the next second, it was caught up by the golden light and hit its back directly. Instead of flying out like before, it was pierced through the body by the golden light.

The brilliance in the demon's eyes vanished, and its vitality swiftly disappeared.

Lin Ran collected the corpse, then casually threw a punch. The huge fist imprint smashed into the city wall, and the city gate and the wall above it were instantly blasted down. The demon army rushed in and engaged in a chaotic battle.

Lin Ran took turns attacking, killing one seventh-tier demon after another, relieving the pressure on Nangong Yu.

Soon, the last seventh-tier demon was killed, and the remaining demons began to be slaughtered.

Lin Ran used his mental energy to scan the city layer by layer and quickly discovered the overlapping spaces.

The space is located in the center of the city and is presumably where the controller resides. It has three additional floors.

One layer stores the source, another layer nurtures troops, and yet another layer is used to help demons break through their limits.

The two eighth-tier demons were born from the third layer of space, but they were still no match for his punch.

After studying it for a while, Lin Ran came up with a complete method for collecting the essence of the territory and immediately took action.

Click!

The space suddenly shattered, revealing a hazy, dreamlike space.

A faint mist filled the space, which, under Lin Ran's control, began to rapidly coalesce, eventually forming a milky-white stone within minutes, which quietly landed in his hand.

Lin Ran grasped the stone; this was the solidified origin of the territory, and the connection with the territory had not yet been completely severed.

He then observed the other two spaces and confirmed that they were of little use.

He then reached mid-air, spread his hands, and pressed them down on the node of the three-layer space.

空~

The giant handprint appeared out of thin air, not the previous gold, but a hazy light blue, seemingly ethereal and as if it did not exist in this space.

As the giant handprint descended, the uppermost space in the three-layered space was shaken and began to crack. Soon, the cracks spread everywhere, and then it shattered with a loud boom.

Then came the second layer of space, which lasted less than half a minute before shattering as well.

Finally, there is the space where the origin is stored. This space is the most solid, but without a controller to support it, it can only passively fight back. However, because most of the origin power has been sealed by Lin Ran, it has no support.

Boom~

With a deafening roar, the space of the territory's origin shattered completely, and the solidified origin lost its connection, becoming an unclaimed entity.

……

The battlefield, bathed in a pale blue halo.

Ling Qiqi and the three demons were pinned to the spot, waiting for news with varying degrees of tension and relaxation.

Suddenly, a demon's expression changed, and countless cracks appeared on its body, from which black blood seeped out.

It shakily raised its head, staring at Ling Qiqi with resentful eyes. Then the light in its eyes disappeared, and it lowered its head and became still.

Ling Qiqi was stunned. After careful observation, she discovered that the demon had perished because the origin of its territory had been shattered, and even the origin space itself had been destroyed!

And right now, the only person she knows who can do this is Lin Ran!

Immediately, her consciousness entered the spiritual space and connected with the soul essence left by Lin Ran. This connection could break through the limitations of the territorial essence.

The main reason is that Lin Ran's current strength needs to exceed the size of the territory in order to establish direct contact.

Ling Qiqi received a response very quickly.

"I've conquered a territory and am on my way back. How long can you hold me back?"

Ling Qiqi smiled brightly: "For a long time, Brother Lin, you can take action as you see fit. I can completely keep the remaining two controllers in check!"

"Alright, I'll go back to my territory to cultivate for a while, and then I'll take action against the other two territories."

Ling Qiqi: "Okay!"

End communication.

Ling Qiqi looked at the remaining two demons as if they were prey placed on a chopping board.

The two demons looked extremely grim, but they had no intention of reconciling with Ling Qiqi.

There is no such thing as reconciliation between demons. Things have escalated to this point, it's either you die or I die.

However, since we are currently unable to contact the outside world, we can only hope that the contingency plans we made earlier will work, since not all demons are mindless.

……

Ling Qiqi's territory.

Lin Ran returned, leaving the Spirit Master by Nangong Yu's side. Now, the demons that could threaten Nangong Yu no longer had much territory left.

Along the way, they brought back all the resources they had already collected, and after taking them all out, they almost filled half of the cultivation space!
