Immediately, it heard Li Yao give it a command: "Little Dragon, kill these ugly ghosts in the lake!"
Zhulong received the order, and with its two enormous eyes, it scanned the surroundings and discovered a group of ugly ghosts engaged in a fierce battle in the lake.
It roared immediately, then twisted its huge body and circled and roared above the Lake of Oblivion.
hold head high!
A terrifying dragon roar shook the heavens and the earth.
The vengeful ghosts in the Lake of Oblivion trembled with fear at the sight of the Candle Dragon, and one by one they desperately burrowed into the bottom of the lake and disappeared in an instant.
"dragon?!"
"There's even a dragon here!"
"What...what kind of place is this?!"
The group of painted-skin demon kings' pupils suddenly contracted, their mouths agape in terror.
The terrifying aura emanating from Zhulong made them feel the call of death.
At that moment, they had only one thought in their minds: run!
Unfortunately, their bodies seemed to be rooted to the spot, making escape impossible.
Just as they were struggling, the giant mouth of the Candle Dragon suddenly opened and spat out a ball of black flame.
call!
Black flames roared, filling the air with the aura of death.
In an instant, the black flames devoured these clones of the Painted Skin Demon King. The terrifying black flames, like maggots clinging to bones, quickly eroded the bodies of these clones. Endless pain pierced the depths of their souls, causing them unbearable agony and making them let out a series of shrill screams.
The scene was extremely terrifying and tragic!
Soon, these clones of the Painted Skin Demon King transformed into a pool of blood, merging into the River of Oblivion and becoming vengeful spirits and malevolent ghosts within it.
From the moment these clones were brought into the space by Li Yao until they were killed by Zhulong, the entire process occurred only while the Painted Skin Ghost King's main body was momentarily stunned.
Having dealt with these clones, Li Yao withdrew his divine sense and turned his gaze to the true form of the Painted Skin Ghost King, smiling slightly as he said, "It's your turn now!"
Chapter 438 This deal is incredibly worthwhile (revised)
Although the Mirror of Retribution can create many clones, it can only be used once a day.
Although the Painted Skin Demon King couldn't figure out how Li Yao had managed to make his more than one hundred clones disappear.
However, he was well aware of his situation.
Without Meng Po's bowl, the Mirror of Retribution also lost its function; in front of Li Yao, it was nothing but trash.
Therefore, the only way out right now is to flee!
He still understood the importance of assessing the situation and making informed decisions.
Unfortunately, he was still a beat too slow.
Just as he turned to run away, he felt a powerful aura coming from all directions.
He quickly used his earth-burrowing technique and burrowed into the ground.
There was a muffled thud, but the ground was as solid as a rock, making it impossible to drill in.
He also had a gash on his head, and the blood sac was bulging at a visible speed.
"hateful!"
The Painted Skin Demon King cursed loudly, not expecting that Li Yao was actually on guard against this move.
He thought to himself, "Since I can't escape, I might as well fight to the death!"
He made a snap decision, turned around immediately, and spat out a cloud of pitch-black poisonous mist.
call!
Suddenly, a gust of wind arose out of nowhere, enveloping him in the poisonous mist he had exhaled, causing him to cough violently from the choking.
Fortunately, he was immune to his own poisonous fog, otherwise he would have been poisoned to death by it, which would have been a great injustice!
Just as he was feeling relieved, he suddenly heard a whoosh.
A flash of blue light appeared within the poisonous fog and instantly attacked him.
Before he could react, he felt a sharp blade pierce through his body.
Before he could even feel the pain, he felt his body shrinking rapidly at a visible speed, and his life force was quickly slipping away.
Soon, his consciousness began to fade, his face filled with terror. With difficulty, he pointed at Li Yao and managed to utter only four words: "You...are...so...ruthless..."
As soon as he finished speaking, his entire body turned into a cloud of smoke, and his soul vanished instantly.
The ruthless and arrogant King of Painted Skin is finally dead!
"Compared to you, I'm far inferior!"
Li Yao reached out and pulled back the Overlord Spear, saying something indifferently.
Then, he glanced at the ground and collected all the scattered attribute orbs.
Then, he pointed the ring on his right hand at the Mirror of Karma, and a white light flashed. The Mirror of Karma disappeared instantly and was stored in the treasure cave in his spatial dimension.
At the same time, he also copied the Mirror of Retribution and disassembled it.
Divine Soul +666!
Luck Points +666!
Soul of the Mirror of Retribution *1!
Li Yao smiled with satisfaction.
The Painted Skin Demon King is really generous; not only did he proactively send over a large amount of attributes, but he also sent over two powerful magic treasures: the Meng Po Bowl and the Mirror of Retribution.
Especially the Mirror of Retribution, which can actually create many clones, is extremely useful.
This time, in addition to gaining attributes and magic treasures, Li Yao's cultivation level also improved once again, reaching the fourth level of the Golden Core Realm.
With the death of the Painted Skin Demon King, all the demons under his command were so terrified that their legs went weak, and they knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for their lives: "Your Majesty, spare us! Your Majesty, spare us..."
These little monsters and demons all know that it's no use for them to run away.
Because the Painted Skin Demon King had just demonstrated to them the consequences of trying to escape, and the outcome was truly tragic.
"Your Majesty is truly amazing! You've eliminated yet another demon king!"
The wolf demon rushed over, fawning over Li Yao with extreme obsequiousness.
Of course, his flattery actually stemmed from his extreme fear and dread of Li Yao.
"Brother Li, where did you put those clones of the Painted Skin Demon King?"
Yan Chixia asked curiously.
He desperately wanted to know how Li Yao had made all one hundred-plus clones disappear in an instant.
"Actually, besides storing things, this magical artifact of mine can also capture monsters!"
Li Yao touched the spatial ring on his right hand and casually made up a sentence.
However, he wasn't entirely making things up; by storing those painted-skin demon kings in his space, he was essentially capturing monsters.
"I never expected this ring to be so magical!"
Yan Chixia looked at Li Yao's ring with envy; he had said this more than once.
"Young master, shall we look for other demon kings next?"
Xiao Bai walked over and asked a question.
"Of course!"
Li Yao nodded and said, "Now that I'm here, I must restore order to the underworld, eliminate the demons and monsters that are harming the underworld and the human world, and restore normal order to the underworld and the human world."
Of course, he had to put his words in a grand and respectable manner.
Actually, his main purpose was to take the opportunity to grab some attributes and magical treasures in the underworld.
The three demon kings alone—Black Mountain Demon, Forgotten River Demon, and Painted Skin Demon King—had already made him a fortune.
There are still seven demon kings left, and one so-called Great Sage Tongtian, who will surely be able to obtain more magic weapons and attributes.
They gained access to a wealth of resources and earned a good reputation.
This deal is incredibly worthwhile!
Then, Li Yao, along with Xiao Bai, Yan Chixia, and the others, led by the wolf demon, flew towards the Song Emperor's Palace in the Underworld.
The Song Emperor's Palace, also known as the Third Palace of the Underworld, is the territory of the Song Emperor. According to the wolf demon's account, the Song Emperor's Palace has been occupied by a demon king named Caiwei King.
The Song Emperor's Palace is located at the bottom of the sea, under the southeast fertile rocks, and is some distance from the Qin Guang King's Palace.
Li Yao and his party flew for half a day before finally arriving at the Song Emperor's Palace.
"Is this the territory of the Song Emperor?"
Li Yao and his group arrived at the bottom of the sea, where a huge city appeared deep in the ocean.
Although this city is located underwater and surrounded by seawater, there is no feeling of suffocation. It is just like being on land, where you can breathe normally.
What puzzled Li Yao was that there were no ghosts here, and there were no ghost soldiers guarding the city gate.
The city gate was open, and Li Yao and his group walked straight in, only to find that it seemed to be an empty city.
What's going on?
"Where are the monsters here?"
Li Yao frowned.
"I...I don't know either!"
The wolf demon was also completely bewildered. As a confidant of the Old Demon of the River of Oblivion, he frequently traveled between the Ten Palaces of the Underworld.
There used to be quite a few monsters here!
