I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

In the blink of an eye,

Tentacles that emerged from the dried corpse's head instantly dragged the man's body to its side.

in an instant,

The crunching sound of chewing filled the dark, enclosed room.

Li Yuan couldn't help but curse under his breath in frustration:

"There are even people willing to throw their lives away, it's really infuriating."

He quickly pulled out his headlamp, put it on, and shone the light into the demon within the magic circle.

All that could be seen was the corpse's originally shriveled upper body.

It was now completely occupied by blood-soaked tentacles.

The dense tentacles floated slowly, like seaweed on the seabed.

Her withered body became plump after consuming the man's flesh and blood.

At the same time, it exudes powerful evil energy.

Clearly, if the demon continues to feed, she will likely become even stronger.

"Strike while the iron is hot and kill him!"

Thinking of this, Li Yuan, gripping the Brotherhood sword tightly, bent over.

Prepare to rush over and kill the demon before it can recover.

Just then, from inside the opponent's tentacled chest cavity,

Suddenly, a sweet and alluring female voice rang out:

"Handsome young man, do I look...beautiful?"

As it made the sound, the demon also made a movement it assumed was human...

Li Yuan was immediately disgusted.

He spat out a mouthful of phlegm:

"Pah! Dream on!"

With a powerful push of both feet,

He swung the blood-red Brotherhood sword in his hand.

Charge straight toward the demon in the center of the magic circle!

Although the system didn't give any notification, Li Yuan could clearly sense that...

This guy possesses abilities similar to mental pollution.

Unfortunately, Li Yuan also possessed high mental strength.

It was not corrupted by the power of the demon.

The demon was slightly taken aback when it saw that Li Yuan had not been affected.

In her memory,

These mortals are all utterly useless trash.

Seeing that Li Yuan's sword was about to strike him,

The demon's body twitched slightly, instantly transforming into a phantom.

He actually flashed right behind Li Yuan!

Li Yuan, whose attack missed its mark, immediately opened his eyes wide.

He never expected that this demon would be so powerful, and could even teleport!

At that moment, the sound of something cutting through the air came from behind his ears.

Li Yuan quickly dodged to the side, simultaneously unleashing [Dedication]!

As Li Yuan barely dodged the tentacle attack...

The floor of the secret chamber was instantly filled with scorching holy flames!

The once pitch-black secret room was suddenly illuminated as if it were daytime.

The demon was startled by the sudden surge of holy energy.

He quickly teleported again and hid in the secret passage.

It waved its tentacles and swatted away the holy flames burning on its body.

The aura emanating from her was noticeably weaker.

Obviously, teleportation in the real world is not without cost.

"I underestimated you, human."

A series of sounds emanated from the demon's chest.

While laughing, he said with malice:

"Haha, you deserve to be a part of my body!"

As he spoke, several tentacles shot out rapidly.

Avoiding the holy flames on the ground, they rushed straight at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan swung his sword to meet the attack, but to his surprise,

When the Brotherhood Sword touched the soft tentacles, it failed to cut them off directly!

The tentacles seemed to have absorbed Li Yuan's force and were not harmed.

Instead, they bypassed the sword's edge.

It directly entangled Li Yuan's body!

As the tentacles tightened...

Li Yuan's strong body also felt a sense of pressure.

He struggled desperately, but found that he couldn't break free from the tentacles' entanglement.

The demon burst into laughter as he watched Li Yuan struggle.

She said in an arrogant tone:

"Kid, don't waste your energy. You have no idea who you're facing right now."

As he spoke, he suddenly flicked his tentacle.

They slammed Li Yuan hard against the wall of the secret room!

With a muffled thud, the wall cracked instantly as Li Yuan smashed it.

A pile of pebbles fell with a "crash".

Li Yuan was somewhat dazed from the fall.

He shook his head, but the tentacles on his body remained tightly wrapped around him.

The demon clearly didn't want to let him go easily.

Li Yuan pondered to himself, "We're quite far from the demon right now."

He might as well play dead and wait until the devil drags him to his mouth before making his move.

In case this guy teleports away.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan tilted his head to the side.

He pretended to faint and then became completely silent.

To Li Yuan's surprise, the demon was not at ease.

She lifted Li Yuan up again and slammed him hard against the wall!

For a moment, the sound of impact echoed in the secret room.

Fortunately, Li Yuan is physically strong and very resistant to impacts.

Otherwise, his body would have been smashed to pieces long ago.

The demon lifted Li Yuan up and swung him around forcefully, laughing mockingly:

"Stop pretending. Who faints while still clutching a weapon?"

Li Yuan was taken aback upon hearing this, thinking to himself:

"Damn, how could I forget about that!"

He quickly squinted and looked at the demon.

But he had barely opened his eyes a crack when...

Then he saw two pitch-black tentacles heading straight for his eyes!

Li Yuan had no choice but to continue pretending and could only pray that the demon wouldn't escape.

He instantly activated the [Blessing of Freedom of Movement] to break free from the tentacles' control!

A dazzling golden light instantly enveloped Li Yuan's entire body.

He slipped down from the tightening tentacles like a slippery eel.

The two tentacles that were aimed at Li Yuan's eyes missed their target in an instant.

Faced with this unexpected turn of events, the demon was once again stunned and stood frozen in place.

He couldn't help but wonder:

"What happened? How did he get out? I was holding on really tightly!"

However, Li Yuan wouldn't give the demon a chance to hesitate.

As he charged toward the demon to close the distance, he instantly unleashed the control skill [Hammer of Retribution]!

A giant, phantom hammer slammed heavily onto the demon's head.

Although it failed to knock her unconscious, it did cause the demon to stagger.

The skill was about to activate, but it wasn't close enough for melee combat.

Li Yuan waved his hand again, and in an instant, a dazzling holy light emanated from his right hand.

The [Exorcism Spell], which can be activated remotely, shoots directly at the demon's chest!

'Bang—'

After a series of muffled explosions,

The demon's chest was instantly torn apart by powerful holy energy.

In an instant, it was a bloody mess, and let out a shrill scream!

"ah--!"

At this moment, Li Yuan had already rushed to the front of the demon.

He swung the Brotherhood's sword and unleashed the [Holy Light Cross Slash]

He slashed fiercely at the demon's chest!

But just as the greatsword, gleaming with holy light, was about to strike the demon,

The wailing demon unleashed all its energy, teleporting once more.

He narrowly escaped a fatal blow and vanished from Li Yuan's sight in an instant.

Li Yuan's sword slashed into the ground with a "crack".

He couldn't help but curse under his breath:

"Damn! This demon can run pretty fast!"

Li Yuan first looked back at the secret room.

He confirmed that the demon wouldn't play dirty tricks on him and was hiding inside.

After seeing clearly what was inside besides the burning holy flames,

Li Yuan quickly turned his head and chased after the outside of the secret passage.

Today, he must kill this demon.

Otherwise, the demons will continue to devour humans to replenish their energy.

When they meet again after she has regained her strength,

The outcome is now uncertain!

Li Yuan had only run a few steps out of the secret passage when...

They then discovered the black blood left by the demon on the ground, as well as a trail of blood-stained footprints.

Li Yuan felt a sudden sense of anxiety.

This was the time when those who had won the bids for the warehouse were taking stock of their spoils.

For demons, this warehouse district...

Just like a free buffet, you can find food anywhere!

The moment Li Yuan hurriedly chased after them out of the warehouse

Suddenly, a man's terrified scream came from the corridor!

"My God! What kind of monster is this! Help me—!"

Li Yuan quickly turned his head and looked in the direction from which the sound came.

At the end of the corridor not far away,

The blood-soaked demon had already bound the wailing man with its tentacles.

They were lifting him up and stuffing him into their mouths little by little...
