Chapter 1430 The Terrifying Demon

The Demon raised her blade hands, blocking Tang Shaoyangʼs sword. It was as if she read Tang Shaoyangʼs movement. She skidded backward from the impact, stopping Tang Shaoyangʼs sword. She then pushed The Nightfall away, pushing Tang Shaoyang a few steps back.

Tang Shaoyang was surprised The Demon could push him away. Based on the attribute, he should be stronger than this demon. The Demon was a Demi-God Rank, and her attributes at most were at Demi-God Rank.

Meanwhile, the current Tang Shaoyang managed to push through his attributes into the God Rank forcefully with his skills. And yet, she had the strength to push him away. It was not like he was putting half effort into his strike.

But then Tang Shaoyang noticed the blade was shaking. The Demonʼs hand was shaking from the clash. It showed the strength of his strike. It looked like she pushed him not through sheer force, but a certain technique he could not see.

The Demon furrowed her brow, looking down on her hand. She seemed to realize the difference in their attributes. Then she assumed a pose. She put her focus on Tang Shaoyang and decided to trust the humanʼs words that the two girls would not intervene.

It was not that she had any other choice but to trust. She felt like she might lose the fight if she split her attention with the other. She immediately realized that in the first strike.

Tang Shaoyang took out his battle axe, holding Abyssal Bone in his left hand and Nightfall in his right hand. Despite the size of his weapon, he easily swung the weapon. He did not have trouble wielding both at the same time.

The Demon made the second move. Her figure blurred out, but he could see her perfectly. She came from the front which was surprising, swinging her sword-like hand down toward him.

Tang Shaoyang swung the battle axe, deflecting the sword, and pushed The Demon through sheer force. The Demon landed four meters away from him.

But he realized the actual killing strike came after the initial strike. He hastily raised his sword, crossing the sword in front of him. A blade appeared out of nowhere, half a meter away from him.

Clank!

Tang Shaoyang gave a quick glance at Avyn, clearly putting the blame on her. He trusted her, thinking that The Demon might not be able to use that weird space shenanigan again.

What followed after one blade was two blades. The demon took one step back and sent more of those weird blades from the distance. Her sword-like hand was not supposed to reach him, and yet four more blades came from the direction he did not expect.

Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!

His quick reaction blocked all the blades. He managed to read where the blade came from because of his Battle Sense. Battle Sense then alerted him again, this time it was eight blades from eight different directions.

With how fast the blades were and came at him from eight different directions. He was not really confident to face them with his sword and battle axe.

Eight Heavenly Gate - Heavenly Black Tortoise, Heavenly Shell

The eight blades were blocked by the shell, and this time he did not give the demon another chance to launch a similar attack. He used Blink and appeared in front of her.

He used the pure force of Heavenly White Tiger Force after recalling The Heavenly Shell, imbuing the energy into his battle axe.

The Demon failed to react with Blink. It was not a movement, she could not sense it. It was different from the first strike. She felt like his presence disappeared for a moment and appeared again. That was weird.

His sword-like hand glowed in violet as she raised her swords up, blocking the incoming axe. The roar of the tiger buzzed in her ears.

The ice on her footing broke apart and sunk her down into the ice floor as she held the attack. Just as she thought she blocked the strike, she saw Tang Shaoyang release his grip on the battle axe.

Tang Shaoyang clenched his left hand into a fist. The Heavenly White Tiger and Chaos Energy gathered in his fist in harmony.

Another tiger roar resounded as the first landed on her belly. The Demon was flung backward to the end of the hall, crashing into the frozen wall.

Boom!

The whole area shook for a moment from the impact.

Tang Shaoyang looked down as he felt a throbbing pain on his wrist. He felt the pain after his fist hit The Demon. He lost his left hand and got cut from the wrist by the Demonʼs sword. She managed to strike back right after she was hit.

He was not upset about losing his left hand like that. In fact, he was amazed by how The Demon fought. Soon the bleeding stopped as the flesh started to regenerate. It was crazy that she managed to pull that up in that situation.

Cough! Cough!

The sound of coughing caught his attention as a figure fell from the wall. The Demon got back on her feet again. Her mouth was covered in dark blood. Her cold blade caressed her stomach where the mark of her fist was.

Tang Shaoyang took out a regeneration potion from his inventory and chugged it down in one gulp. He still could not get used to Yuʼs regeneration potion taste. It was different from the tasteless potion from the System. It was so bitter that left a bad aftertaste in the mouth.

If not for the fact that Yuʼs potion was more effective, he would not drink them. He would rather spend his coin to buy in the General Shop. It took him thirty seconds to regrow his missing fist.

Tang Shaoyang was ready for the second round, but it was different for The Demon. She fell on her knee again. Unlike Tang Shaoyang, as a being who stayed inside the dungeon, she did not have the luxury of potion. She needed more time to recover.

”Is it my win, then?” He was disappointed, but just like Avyn said. He should bring The Demon under his wing. Imagine if this Demon reached a God Rank? Being confined inside the dungeon limited her growth, but once she got outside. She might be really a terrifying monster.
