Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1458: Chapter 1459: Blood-Colored Spiritual Fog

”Lingyun Sword Technique, Fourth Stance—Sword Shadow Supreme!”

In an instant, the sky was filled with countless sword shadows, as if dozens of Ye Luo were attacking simultaneously!

The Demon Clan assassins, though trained as elite death warriors, showed no trace of fear when facing Ye Luo’s assault. They immediately activated their Spirit Power Shields and charged toward him without hesitation.

Perhaps, in their minds, as long as Ye Luo was slain, their sacrifices would be worthwhile—even if it meant all of them dying in the process!

But unfortunately, the gap in power was something that sheer numbers could not compensate for!

Never judge Ye Luo’s cultivation just by appearances. Although he seemed to be merely at the First Cyclone Realm, within his body were dozens of Qi Cyclones!

Combined with his unique methods, even though some of these assassins had cultivation equivalent to the Fourth Realm or even the Fifth Realm of the Cyclone Realm, it amounted to nothing in the face of Ye Luo’s overwhelming strength!

Whoosh—

A Demon Clan warrior didn’t even understand what had happened before he saw a flash of blood, his protective Spirit Shield broken, and his head severed clean from his body.

And this Demon Clan warrior wasn’t the only one to fall to Ye Luo. At the same time as he was slain, dozens of blood sprays erupted into the air around him!

Ye Luo had killed more than ten Demon Clan assassins with a single strike!

Such an overwhelming display of power stunned even the fearless Demon Clan warriors. They hesitated briefly, for they knew that the Demon Clan, compared to the Human Race, excelled in physical resilience and raw strength. Furthermore, these assassins were handpicked warriors from within Demon Clan ranks.

Individually, their realm might not be extraordinarily high, but in terms of physical attributes and capabilities, they were undoubtedly formidable!

Yet, even so, none of them managed to withstand a single blow from Ye Luo. To make matters worse, at this moment, many of the Demon Clan assassins had already reverted to their true forms.

The restoration of their true forms should have activated their unique racial abilities. But even with this advantage, they were being effortlessly cut down by Ye Luo!

Was it negligence on their part?

No, it wasn’t. These Demon Clan warriors were assassins, death warriors. They cared nothing for honor or glory—only the completion of their mission!

Once given an assignment, they would stop at nothing to accomplish it, regardless of the methods or costs involved.

So, even while surrounding and attacking Ye Luo, they were fighting with their full might.

Yet despite unleashing their full power, they were so terribly outmatched!

Was the Demon Clan too weak? Or was Ye Luo simply too strong?

”Damn it! This guy’s troublesome! Gather the formation—activate the spirit!”

Suddenly, the Demon Clan assassin leader shouted a command. Troublesome? Ye Luo understood the term; they were calling him difficult to kill!

However, what was ”gather the formation—activate the spirit”? Could it be some sort of formation technique?

Just as Ye Luo was trying to deduce its meaning, the Demon Clan assassins began to take action.

Thirteen Demon Clan warriors quickly retreated to the rear.

Indeed, while the others were attacking with all their might, these thirteen individuals moved to the rear.

When something unusual happens, there’s bound to be a hidden ploy. Alas, even though Ye Luo recognized this fact, he couldn’t make any moves because the numerous Demon Clan assassins surrounded him, blocking his path!

Ye Luo swung the Lingyun Sword again, fighting against the warriors before him. Yet his focus remained fixed on those thirteen individuals at the rear.

What were they planning?

Ye Luo knew well that Demon Clan warriors possessed unique methods exclusive to their race.

Thus, Ye Luo dared not be careless!

Suddenly, a wild, bloodthirsty and savage aura seemed to emanate through the air!

This aura wasn’t intense or overwhelming, but Ye Luo’s acute senses detected it immediately.

”What is that!”

Ye Luo’s gaze locked onto the space behind the Demon Clan assassins where spiritual mist was rapidly forming!

Indeed, at the position of the thirteen warriors, a mist was bizarrely appearing out of nowhere.

However, this mist remained confined to a small area.

Just from this slight anomaly, Ye Luo immediately realized that the mist must be the product of some eerie trick by the Demon Clan warriors!

Bang!

There was no actual sound, yet Ye Luo felt as if he heard an explosion in his mind!

It was a visual blast—a dazzling burst of energy and phenomenon!

Not a literal auditory detonation!

Within the distinctive mist, several bursts of crimson light shot into the sky, as if beings within the mist were self-destructing!

In an instant, the spiritual mist turned entirely blood-red!

Meanwhile, the Demon Clan warriors in front of Ye Luo—those beside him—wore expressions of fervent worship and excitement. They abruptly ceased their attacks on Ye Luo, redirecting their attention entirely to the blood-colored mist!

Something was amiss!

If Ye Luo couldn’t discern the obvious strangeness in this situation, then he wouldn’t deserve his name!

”Clairvoyant Eye, activate!”

In that moment, Ye Luo activated his Clairvoyant Eye skill to examine the blood-colored mist closely, determined to uncover its nature!

What was happening within that sinister mist? Had the Demon Clan warriors actually self-destructed?

Yet when Ye Luo finally saw through the mist, he was overwhelmed with rage.

What he saw was not the Demon Clan warriors detonating themselves but instead an insidious technique used to silently detonate the corpses of slain civilians!

”Damned creatures!”

Ye Luo couldn’t hold back his fury.

These innocent civilians hadn’t provoked anyone. They had merely lived in this area, only to be mercilessly slaughtered by the Demon Clan warriors!

In some sense, Ye Luo bore partial responsibility for their deaths, as they had perished because of him.

But even in death, the Demon Clan refused to let them rest. Now their bodies were being used as sacrificial offerings to summon a monster!

Yes, monsters!

The blood essence emitted from the corpses was being drained into the mist, causing the mist to grow denser and viscous.

The thirteen Demon Clan warriors began chanting incantations hastily, injecting streams of spiritual power into the blood-colored mist. In an instant, the mist condensed into an enormous monster, towering over ten meters tall!

The creature was entirely blood-red, with its body formed from spiritual mist and blood!

And as soon as it manifested, the monstrous being began devouring the surrounding corpses without hesitation, absorbing them entirely into its body, which rapidly expanded to alarming proportions!

Damned creatures!

All along, the slaughtering of these surrounding civilians wasn’t merely to eliminate witnesses. Even more importantly, the Demon Clan warriors intended to use their bodies as offerings to summon this terrifying abomination!

”Die!”

Ye Luo could no longer contain himself. At this moment, his mission was not just vengeance for the innocent but crucially survival.

It was clear that the effort the Demon Clan had invested to summon this monstrosity indicated its significance—the creature must possess extraordinary abilities.

Ye Luo couldn’t allow the monster to continue its unrestrained consumption of corpses, as the mist could grow even more disastrous!
