I, a prison guard in the Heavenly Prison, secretly became invincible thanks to the system.

Chapter 936 Unraveling the Mystery, Exorcising Demons and Defending the Righteous Path

Throughout Hun County, countless people looked up, staring in shock at the scene.

It was as if countless giant spikes were piercing between the mountains, moving mountains and overturning seas, changing the world.

The earthquake spread throughout the county in an instant, causing countless houses to collapse and the ground to crack.

This is the true destructive power of the demons of the Returning to Truth Realm. If they so desire, they can instantly change an entire area, causing unprecedented disasters.

At the same time, countless spiders emerged from the cracks in the earth.

These spiders were colorful and varied in size, but their sheer number was unimaginable, so densely packed that it sent chills down everyone's spine.

Fortunately, Ye Kang brought enough people, and the personnel from the Demon Suppression Division and the Surveillance Division were immediately deployed.

All they need to do is move all the civilians to a safe location, then form a battle formation and use multi-person tactics to block the spider swarm.

However, there were simply too many spiders. In that instant, many people were unable to escape and became food for the spiders.

The battle erupted instantly from all directions.

Above the mountain, spider silk formed spikes that protruded, creating a cage that trapped Ye Kang and the red-robed hermit inside.

The red-robed hermit revealed a maniacal, wicked smile and shouted, "I've been running this place for decades, turning it into my lair. What makes you think you can fight me!"

Having said that, all the spider silk and sharp spikes lashed out at Ye Kang.

The latter quickly dodged. At the same time, the myriad sword energies blasted out.

But this time, the attack of the Myriad Flower Sword Qi on the spikes failed to destroy them! It could only leave a white mark on them!

Such a sturdy material!

wrong!

These spikes are merely products of spider silk; the true source of power lies beneath the mountains!

Ye Kang activated his divine sense to the fullest extent and immediately detected the flow of spiritual energy underground.

Countless energies from the earth were extracted by these spikes and transformed into an invincible force.

That earth energy is extraordinary!

Ye Kang instantly assessed the situation: Hun County must have become the Red-Clothed Hermit's hunting ground, and she had even transformed the entire underground area.

By using her innate supernatural powers to set up spikes and drawing on the earth's energy as a source of power, she becomes invincible as long as she is within the territory of Hun County!

No wonder General Luo was helpless against this demon. Even if General Luo could defeat her, it would cause the destruction of the entire Hun County.

"To be afraid of harming the innocent, yet still hesitate to act," what a ruthless tactic.

Ye Kang's expression hardened, and he could only exert all his strength to forcefully smash the attacking spikes back.

But there were too many spikes, and the red-robed hermit kept laughing wildly.

"Kid! Weren't you so smug just now? Why aren't you laughing anymore? Your body is indeed very strong; it must be quite chewy to eat. I can't wait to get my hands on it!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Kang's figure flashed again, his face turning even darker.

This move is too ruthless. The key is the endless number of small spiders. If it is not stopped quickly, the entire population of Hun County will become food.

This is something Ye Kang absolutely cannot allow!

He unleashed a powerful Whale Fist, slamming the approaching red-robed hermit back.

Then, with a thought, he used the Earth Escape Technique, which allowed him to move within a very small area.

In an instant, he transformed into a beam of light and disappeared underground, moving so fast that the red-robed hermit didn't even have time to react.

But the next second, she said viciously, "Fool, you're asking for death."

The underground was her spider's lair; for this person to go in willingly was nothing short of courting death.

Immediately, countless demonic energies surged into the ground, and the red-robed hermit monitored every blind spot. Whenever Ye Kang's figure flickered, countless bamboo spikes would be driven into it, making it extremely dangerous.

This was the first time Ye Kang had used the Earth Escape Technique in actual combat. Having experience with other escape techniques, he was not unfamiliar with them and moved freely among the soil.

The red-robed hermit could indeed find him, but his attacks couldn't keep up with the speed of his escape technique.

In an instant, Ye Kang arrived at the core of the mountain range.

That is, the place where the earth veins are located. Those spikes are the earth energy drawn from the earth veins, which is why Ye Kang is so troubled.

Since forcing it won't work, let's just destroy this ley line.

The red-robed hermit had clearly discerned Ye Kang's thoughts, and his expression suddenly turned flustered.

This was indeed the solution she feared most, since the earth's energy was the core. Once the earth's veins were destroyed, her carefully constructed fortress would have no power left.

However, she had never worried about this before, after all, she was a demon, and when it came to speed underground, who could be faster than her?

But despite all her calculations, she never expected that Ye Kang possessed the world's most advanced earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of escape technique).

The speed of the movement, within a mere foot's radius, instantly shattered the red-robed hermit's composure.

"you dare!"

She roared with all her might, stabbing down with all her sharp thorns, determined to turn Ye Kang into a sieve.

But it was too late. Ye Kang was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived on the earth vein. Then, his second true spirit surged, and countless Dawn Spear beams erupted, fiercely slamming into the earth vein.

With a series of cracking sounds, a precious earth vein treasure was completely blasted into powder by the spear's edge.

"Do not!!!"

Countless spikes came crashing down with the red-robed hermit's roar, but Ye Kang remained calm and unfazed. He summoned the Mountain and Sea Chess again, blocking all the spikes with pinpoint accuracy.

How could the strength of a Dao-aligned divine weapon be shaken by mere spider silk spikes?

Ye Kang's figure suddenly flashed, and with a flick of his true spirit, the sharp spikes shattered inch by inch.

Without the support of the earth's energy, the strength of these spikes is negligible.

In a short while, Ye Kang had already escaped back to the ground. At the same time, the Mountain and Sea Chess Piece broke through the ground and once again slammed into the red-robed hermit's seriously injured abdomen.

The latter roared and began to spin, countless demonic energies transforming into powerful spirals that smashed the Mountain and Sea Chess Pieces away.

But the next second, a dark shadow suddenly appeared above her head.

It was a small, pure black tower.

Dao-aligning divine weapon, Demon-suppressing tower.

It imprisons all demons and evil cultivators, causing all demons to retreat.

This was also the most precious treasure Ye Kang obtained in the Misty Land, and it was the first time he had used it.

Unlike the Mountain and Sea Chess Pieces, the Demon-Suppressing Tower is a true and complete Dao-harmonizing divine weapon, but Ye Kang's cultivation level is not high, so he can only exert part of its power.

However, a portion of it is enough. This treasure can suppress evil spirits and demons. Its demon-suppressing power rises into the sky and instantly showers down countless black rays of light, turning all the small spiders that emerge from the ground into dust.

These weak demons weren't even qualified to be suppressed and taken away by the Demon-Suppressing Tower; they could only be crushed directly.

The sudden attack left the red-robed hermit completely unprepared, his entire body enveloped in a demon-suppressing power.

Ye Kang tried his best to activate it, but he still couldn't take it into the tower. After all, a powerful demon equivalent to the Yang Realm couldn't be taken away so easily.

Ye Kang was not disappointed. Although he could not suppress it directly, the power of the magic-suppressing tower reduced the red-robed hermit's power by more than half. His huge demon body had to do its best to resist the pressure of the magic-suppressing tower and could no longer unleash any fierce attacks.

That's enough.

Ye Kang's eyes narrowed, and his primordial spirit appeared above his head. Behind the primordial spirit, boundless blood energy surged.

Then a giant demonic claw tore open a spatial rift and crawled out with an evil grin.

At this moment, demonic flames surged to the heavens, and evil energy filled the air. The demonic power emanating from Ye Kang even surpassed that of the red-robed hermit.

Everyone watching was stunned, and the red-robed hermit stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what he was seeing.

"What is this!"

The red-robed hermit even had a strange feeling that this guy might also be a demon.

But why do people of the same kind make things difficult for each other?

Although the thought was dispelled by the red-robed hermit in a moment, the confusion in her eyes lingered for a long time.

Immediately afterwards, a roar rang out, and Ye Kang's first true spirit demonic shadow crawled out completely. In a single breath, it rushed in front of the red-robed hermit, and then its two blood claws poured into the red-robed hermit's body, tearing it apart to both sides.

With a tearing sound, the red-robed hermit was ripped in two with a wail, and countless spider silks were spat out, attempting to attack the demonic shadow.

But the demonic shadow merely smiled wickedly, its entire body engulfed in hellish flames, instantly obliterating the spider silk.

At this moment, the red-robed hermit could no longer hold on, and his demonic aura dissipated instantly, leaving his defensive measures temporarily ineffective.

With only her demon soul remaining, she was directly imprisoned by the power of magic suppression and then sucked into the magic suppression tower.

When she came to her senses, she found herself suppressed in a dark little room.

She immediately flew into a rage: "Let me out!"

The demon's true form unleashed a powerful force, relentlessly bombarding the Demon-Suppressing Tower.

However, the strength of the Dao-Merging Divine Weapon was simply beyond her ability to destroy.

Ye Kang reached out and grabbed the small tower, then with a thought, countless anti-magic powers pierced into the red-robed hermit's demonic soul like longswords.

In no time, the opponent was lifeless, and its true form was reduced to fragments.

Ye Kang then summoned the Immortal Demon Record and swallowed the fragments of her demon soul.

【Ding】

[Congratulations, host, on completing the mission: Unraveling the mystery]

[Task Rewards: 5000000 Comprehension Points, Moon-Entwining Silk Evolution Bloodline]

The system reward arrived, and my remaining comprehension returned to five million, along with a divine bloodline refined by the system.

That is the Red-Clothed Hermit's Spider Silk Divine Power Bloodline. As long as it is integrated into the Moon-Entwining Heavenly Silk, it can undergo an evolution.

However, Ye Kang did not use it immediately. Instead, he took a deep breath and then unleashed the Myriad Flower Sword Qi wildly, turning the entire sky into a pink ocean.

shhhhhhhh!

The sword energy surged, and countless small spiders that crawled out of the ground were cut into pieces.

As for those still buried underground, Ye Kang directly released the true fire of the Returning to Truth realm and ignited them all.

Although True Fire cannot compare to Heavenly Fire, it is still formed from the Return to Truth realm and its strength is extremely terrifying.

In just a few moments, most of the spiders were burned to death.

The earthquake stopped, and Hun County finally entered a brief period of calm.

When the people who had hidden themselves tried to look up towards the mountains, they discovered that the red-robed immortal had disappeared, and only the majestic general in his black wind armor stood on the horizon, like a war god.

"The general has won!"

The inspectors immediately roared with joy, and cheers erupted from all directions.

They had all come to follow General Ye with the determination to die, so how could they not have felt that Ye Kang was no match for the Red-Clothed Hermit?

But the result was another slap in the face for them. General Ye was simply omnipotent and his strength was unimaginable!

Hearing the cheers, Ye Kang transmitted his voice to everyone in Hun County again: "Ye Kang of the Demon Suppression Division, today I have wiped out the wild gods of Hun County and vanquished the demons to protect the righteous path!"

"Exterminate demons and defend the righteous path! Exterminate demons and defend the righteous path!"

Numerous voices echoed in agreement, especially among the bewildered common people, who finally became convinced that the red-robed immortal was dead!

The great deity they worshipped was actually killed by a human!

The people were suddenly confused. At that moment, a series of spiritual lights descended from the sky, and the people were jolted awake and suddenly realized what was happening.

"That's right! Why believe in wild gods? We should believe in the Water-Suppressing General!"

……

Soon, atop the highest mountain peak, Ye Kang sat cross-legged, continuously recovering from the energy he had just expended.

An enemy equivalent to the Yang Realm is not easy to fight, and the red-robed hermit has too many tricks up his sleeve and uses supernatural powers frequently, making him more troublesome than any enemy Ye Kang has encountered before.

Ye Kang used many of his trump cards this time, and even used two Dao-Merging Divine Weapons, which caused a great loss to his primordial spirit.

Even though the True Qi Realm cultivator is constantly replenishing his true energy, he is now finding it somewhat difficult to keep up.

He didn't digest the post-battle rewards, but instead just continued meditating.

At the same time, he was also wondering why, despite the great scale of his battle with the red-robed hermit, the demon saints of the other two counties remained completely silent.

Ye Kang was unaware that at the same time he was fighting the red-robed hermit...

On the border of Hun County, an elderly man with white hair flew silently in the air.

His gaze was kind, without a trace of hostility, but as long as he stood there, all the prying eyes outside Hun County stopped.

The two demon saints from the other two counties naturally already knew about Ye Kang's attack.

At first, they also wanted to sit back and watch the fight, but when they realized that the red-robed hermit was already at a disadvantage and in imminent danger, the two demon saints did not hesitate to step in to rescue him.

Then, they sensed that calm atmosphere.

"Lokilin! Are you trying to stop us?!"

A demon saint roared in fury.

That's right, the old man was General Luo Qilin.

He didn't make a move directly, but simply said, "A fair duel doesn't need anyone else's interference. Get lost."

"You surnamed Luo! You think we're afraid of you? The two of us joining forces are not afraid of you either!"

“If you were truly not afraid, you wouldn’t have said so much to this old man. Go back, face reality, and get into the sea, otherwise, that kid will be coming for you soon.”

Both demon saints frowned upon hearing this.

They weren't stupid. Although they had previously looked down on Ye Kang, they now felt a sense of urgency.

At the same time, news of the red-robed hermit's death arrived, which greatly surprised the two demons. They didn't bother to say anything more to Luo Qilin and fled immediately.

We can't stay on land anymore; we have to go back to the island.

The strongest red-clad warrior is dead, and Ye Kang will surely come looking for them soon, at which point their lives will be in danger.

As for the incense offerings left in the two counties, they can only be temporarily abandoned, after all, as long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn.

As Lokilin watched the two demons flee into the sea, a hint of emotion finally flashed in his eyes.

"That kid is something else. He actually accomplished something I couldn't do in decades so quickly. Perhaps it really was at the behest of the Holy Emperor?"

Lokilin was still unsure of Ye Kang's true intentions, but as long as the eight counties returned, he wouldn't concern himself with anything else.

After being suppressed by demons for so many years, Luoyan Prefecture has finally been able to rise up today.
