Chapter 586: Unknown Demons

After Guanghao underwent transformation, Shenmu Laozu and Lunan Shenggu also transformed into those unknown demons. After the transformation, the three of them still retained their respective gender characteristics, indicating that these demons could distinguish between “male and female” or “male and female animals,” which was different from the extraterrestrial demons.
As soon as Su Che heard the nonsense Xueyu said, he glared at her and asked, “How can there still be nonsense? Why haven’t you transformed yet?”
“Haven’t you transformed either?” Xueyu shot him a glare.
Although their expressions seemed calm while talking, they were actually extremely nervous inside, unsure whether they too would turn into the same as Guanghao and the others in the next moment.
“Hahaha…”
The three transformed into unknown demons were all laughing maniacally at the sky, clearly celebrating their regained freedom. They also had no intention of attacking Su Che and the others right away, probably thinking that the two of them would inevitably end up transformed into demons as well.
“The three of them have transformed. Why don’t I feel anything yet?”
As soon as this thought arose in Su Che’s mind, he immediately felt a strange force surging from every part of his body, rushing straight to his brain.
“Bad! It’s starting!”
Su Che was terrified, fearing he would turn into a monster like Guanghao. There was no time to come up with any solution; he could only hope that the Immortal Prison Pagoda in his mind would protect him.
Su Che had almost blind trust in the Immortal Prison Pagoda, holding firm to the belief: As long as the Immortal Prison is here, I’ll be safe!
Indeed, in these internal battles where the body itself served as the battlefield, the Immortal Prison had never disappointed Su Che, and it wouldn’t this time either!
Huh…
The Immortal Prison Pagoda slowly rotated. After just a few turns, it sucked all the harmful energy in Su Che’s body into its space.
No matter what it is, once it enters the Immortal Prison, it must obediently become a prisoner.
“It’s okay, master,” Lao He said immediately. “This is a demonic energy, like a virus, capable of turning normal beings into those monsters. I’ve temporarily trapped it on the fourth floor of the Immortal Prison.”

The fourth layer of the Immortal Prison, namely the Soul Slavery Space, was quite suitable for imprisoning such formless, intangible unknown energies. Although it might not be possible to truly enslave these energies that had neither thoughts nor souls, trapping them in a corner for a long time was still no problem.

Su Che’s consciousness instantly returned to clarity. He immediately turned his gaze toward Xue Yu, who was several dozen feet away. At that moment, he desperately wished that Xue Yu, that wretched woman, had been corrupted into a monster—how wonderful that would be!

Even if he had to fight to the death against those monsters later, Su Che still didn’t want to endure having that boot-wearing ghost lingering around, disturbing his peace day and night.

Yet, while wishes are beautiful, reality is often cruel.

Noticing Su Che’s gaze on her, Xue Yu, whose eyes were slightly narrowed, raised her head and smiled at him—a smile as radiant as a blooming garden, infinitely charming.

But in Su Che’s eyes, that smile was worse than ten thousand demons grinning at him…

Sigh. He didn’t even know how to describe it. Su Che could only sigh inwardly: Truly, good people don’t live long, while trouble lingers for ages!

“I knew you’d be fine,” Xue Yu said softly. “You really didn’t disappoint me… But I must have disappointed you greatly, right?”

“Yes, utterly!” Su Che admitted frankly, shaking his head. “It’s a shame you haven’t changed at all.”

“Don’t worry, I’m trying,” Xue Yu said, uttering something utterly baffling.

“Trying what?” Su Che asked, frowning.

“I’m slowly working to make you stop hating me so much,” Xue Yu replied calmly.

“Does such a thing even need effort?”

Su Che laughed. “All you need to do now is die right in front of me with a snap. I promise I’ll never hate you again from this day forward.”

Xue Yu gave him another light, indifferent glance.

Meanwhile, the three mutated demons across from them stared at Su Che and the others, chattering rapidly in a language completely incomprehensible. They were probably discussing why Su Che and the others hadn’t evolved or transformed yet.

Swish!

Su Che flipped his wrist and drew his amethyst long sword, saying to the three demons, “Stop waiting. There’s no way we’ll turn into what you are. If you can speak human language, then speak; if not, let’s fight!”

“You two can actually resist the power of corruption?”

The monster transformed from Guanghao stared at Su Che with its blood-red eyes, emitting a gloomy gaze. It spoke fluent “human language” as well: “Tianyu and Xueyu are indeed not ordinary people!”
“Oh?”
Su Che and Xueyu were momentarily stunned, realizing that this monster must have absorbed Master Guanghao’s memories—everything it should remember and everything it should know was now in its possession.
“Guanghao?” Su Che asked, “Can I still call you that?”
“Hehe, whatever,” the demonized Guanghao replied with a sinister laugh.
Pointing his sword at the giant silver sphere, Su Che asked, “What’s inside?”
Bang! Bang!
Guanghao knocked twice on his uneven, bumpy chest: “By becoming like me, you’ll know all the answers.”
“Nonsense. If I became like you, what would there be left for me to ask?”
Su Che’s gaze turned cold as he said in a low voice, “Since you refuse to answer, let’s fight. I’d like to see if there’s any way to kill a monster like you.”
“Roar…”
The three monsters on the other side laughed eerily at the same time. Guanghao said darkly, “We are immortal and indestructible—forever beyond killing.”
“That’s perfect!” Su Che’s reply was also quite strange, and then…
Swish!
A beam of destruction shot out, covering a distance of over ten zhang in an instant, striking Guanghao’s eyes precisely.
In other words, this beam of destruction connected Su Che’s eyes with Guanghao’s—such close proximity meant no monster could dodge it.
Roar!
Hit by the beam of destruction, Guanghao’s upper body jerked backward violently as he let out a shrieking roar. This showed that the beam of destruction could inflict direct damage on him.
If it could cause harm, it meant it could also kill.
Su Che had always believed that true immortality did not exist in this world. Even the Twelve Ancestral Witches, whose power surpassed that of witch gods, could fall—so how could there be creatures that couldn’t be killed?
“The Origin of Destruction!”
After being attacked, Guanghao retreated dozens of zhang at full speed, covering his eyes with his sharp right claw as he roared, “You actually possess the power of the Origin of Destruction?”
“You know your worth.”
Su Che smiled faintly and swung his purple crystal sword forcefully: “Then help me identify what kind of power this is as well.”
Although Su Che could control the killing power contained within his purple crystal sword, he had never understood its origin. If he could get an answer from this unknown demonic race now, it would be quite useful.
Swish! Swish! Swish!

Three consecutive purple streaks shot toward ‘Guanghao’ at speeds exceeding the limits of the Light of Destruction.
