Chapter 2084: Rescue Mission

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xu Huan stared at these giant eagles as he introduced them to Ye Chen.

”The Wind-chasing Eagle is one of the few powerful demonic beasts that can be reared by humans. It flies very fast, but its endurance is a little lacking. Still, for short distance trips, it’s much faster than flying artifacts.”

After saying that, his eyes lit up as he locked his gaze on a Wind-chasing Eagle that was slightly taller than its kind and had a proud expression.

This was the one!

With a cry, the black aura around the Wind-chasing Eagle exploded. Like a black lightning bolt, it soared into the sky and flew out of the academy.

Ye Chen was shocked. This Wind-chasing Eagle was indeed extremely fast. However, it was not very agile when it moved. It was only suitable for flight, but could not maintain its top speed in battle.

...

The mission that Xing Zitang and the others had accepted this time was to go to a forest distant from the Divine Fire Academy to investigate.

Something seemed to have been sealed in that mountain forest. There was an ancient altar, and there had been some strange movements near the altar recently.

Generally speaking, some powerful demonic beasts might have accidentally entered this place and disturbed the protective formation near the altar.

According to the information, the strongest demonic beast near the forest had only reached the late-stage Star Aperture realm.

With Ji Xuan, Xing Zitang, and the others’ current levels of strength and their preparation, they should be able to handle such opponents.

However, the strange thing was that Xing Zitang and the others had not returned to the academy after so many days.

Soon, Ye Chen and the other two, who were sitting on the back of the Wind-chasing Eagle, saw a lush forest in the distance. This forest was where Xing Zitang and the others were carrying out their mission. It was called the Celestial Pole Forest!

At this moment, in the depths of the Celestial Pole Forest, inside a stone cave, stood an evil-looking young man. This young man was dressed in a black robe, and his entire body was covered in black patterns. In front of him was a huge altar.

At this moment, the altar was surrounded by a blood-red formation. Within the formation, a blood-red light was continuously pulsed, eroding the power of the altar. Under the erosion of the blood-red light, the white light of the altar barrier flickered continuously, as if it was on the verge of collapse.

When the evil-looking young man saw this, a look of ecstasy flashed across his eyes. Then, he swept his gaze around and looked at the few figures outside the blood-colored formation.

At this moment, these figures were bound by a few black chains. Their eyes were closed and they had lost consciousness.

These people were Xing Zitang and the others!

Suddenly, Ji Xuan frowned and slowly opened his eyes.

The evil-looking young man raised his eyebrows when he saw this. He did not expect that these cultivators would actually be able to regain their consciousness.

However, he did not care too much about it. So what if they woke up?

Ji Xuan swept his gaze across his surroundings, and his expression changed drastically. He tried to break free from the chains that bound him, but the chains did not move at all. It was as if they were embedded in his body.

However, he quickly calmed down and looked coldly at the evil-looking young man in front of him.

” Stop struggling!” The evil-looking young man sneered. ”Do you think you can break free from the Myriad Demon Lock with your cultivation level?”

Ji Xuan’s expression was gloomy. Previously, he had accepted the academy’s mission with Xing Zitang and the others to come here. He had thought that a demonic beast had barged in, but instead, they discovered this evil-looking youth here.

Furthermore, this evil-looking young man was actually a Sealed Gate realm expert, and one from the Demon Race to boot.

This was not the Demon Territory, so why was someone like him here?

Naturally, Ji Xuan and the rest were no match for this young man. Even though they had used all their trump cards, they were still unable to escape capture, as the disparity in strength was simply too great.

He had been prepared to die, but to his surprise, he was still alive. Xing Zitang, Xie Pingping, and the others were still alive.

”Kill me!” Ji Xuan glared at the Demon Race expert and said coldly, ”If you want to kill me, then kill me. Why waste time like this?”

He knew that he had fallen into the hands of this demon race expert. Although he was not dead yet, the outcome would be no different. If this demon race expert did not kill him now, then what he wanted to do would definitely be crueler than killing him!

”Die?” The demon race expert laughed. ”Killing you directly is too merciful for someone like you, right? Are you kidding me?”

”What exactly do you want to do?” Ji Xuan’s eyes darkened.

”My master is about to be released from the seal. He has been sealed for many years. I’m sure that he thirsts for the blood of geniuses like you, right?”

”You should feel honored to be devoured by my master. However, the feeling of being sucked dry bit by bit is much more painful than death. Hahahahaha.”

”Damn it!” Ji Xuan could not help but curse when he heard that. ”Filthy demon, do you think you can be safe after doing such a thing to us?”

The demon race expert’s eyes gleamed coldly. With a flash, he instantly appeared beside Ji Xuan. Raising his hand, he slapped Ji Xuan’s face viciously.

If not for the fact that his body was bound by the Myriad Demon Lock, Ji Xuan would have been sent flying.

This slap caused Ji Xuan’s face to be covered in blood, and he actually nearly fainted.

”How can a piece of trash like you tarnish the name of my demon race?” the demon race expert said expressionlessly, ”Consequences? Hehe, what can incompetent cultivators do to me? I really can’t think of it.”

Ji Xuan shook his head as he looked at the Devil in front of him. His eyes were filled with extreme killing intent and hatred!

He was a proud son of a top force. When had he ever been bullied and humiliated like a prisoner?

”What’s that look in your eyes?” The demon race expert sneered. ”Why don’t you continue talking if you have the guts, huh?”

”It seems that not only are you trash, but you’re also a b*stard who hasn’t been beaten enough. Do you want to continue being beaten?”

Ji Xuan gritted his teeth, but chose to remain silent.

The smile on the demon race expert’s face grew wider. He sneered. ”You geniuses of the Lingwu Continent are all cowards. Have you become afraid after being slapped? Haha, how laughable.”

After saying that, he turned around and walked back to the blood-colored formation. It was more important to break the seal on the altar.

Ji Xuan lowered his head, gritting his teeth so hard that they were about to shatter. The reason why he did not continue cursing was not because he was afraid of this person, but because he knew that if he were to continue being beaten by this fellow, he would faint again.

Although he did not know if there was still a chance of survival, for Xing Zitang, Xie Pingping, and the others’ sakes, he had to stay awake.

Only by staying clear-headed could he seize the opportunity to save everyone. The reason why he said all that was only to get information from the demon race expert.
