Chapter 587: The Three Demons of Guanghao

Three beams of amethyst blade light slashed toward “Guanghao.” Their speed was even greater than that of the Destruction Light. From a distance of no more than a hundred zhang, even though Guanghao had grown a pair of fleshy wings, it was too late for him to dodge.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
The three beams of light pierced through his massive body. Guanghao let out a roar and rolled several times in the air, yet his body remained intact.
Su Che wasn’t surprised. He had already guessed it wouldn’t be that easy to kill him. After all, even before becoming a demon, Guanghao was a powerful being at the Mahayana stage. After transforming into a demon, his strength should only increase further. If he could be killed so easily, that would be strange.
The Destruction Light could turn a person into piles of crimson powder, eliminating them completely; being struck by the amethyst blade light would turn them into bursts of purple starlight, also leading to total destruction.
But now, after being hit by both the Destruction Light and the amethyst blade light, with no protective measures around his body, Guanghao merely roared twice—showing no obvious injuries. This proved that his demonized body had extremely strong defense capabilities, likely surpassing even the finest defensive artifacts.
Even the most powerful beings at the Mahayana stage in the mortal world, even those who focused solely on cultivating their physical bodies, could not refine their bodies to such a level. Just based on this, Su Che believed that after transforming into demons, their overall strength would increase significantly from their original level.
“The Origin of Slaughter!”
The demonized Guanghao truly became someone who recognized value. He had already identified Su Che’s Destruction Light as the power of the Origin of Destruction. Now, he had also figured out the true nature of the amethyst blade light.
The Origin of Slaughter!
“As I thought!”
Su Che nodded inwardly. He had already sensed that the special energy stored within the amethyst sword was filled with an merciless killing aura, which led him to consider the “Path of Slaughter.” Now, he was even more certain that the Sky-Devouring Rat had given him two great gifts: the Origin of Destruction and the Origin of Slaughter.
These two origins of power were surely no weaker than the most powerful techniques among the three thousand great paths, and obtaining them required immense fortune.
“The Sky-Devouring Rat may seem heartless, but in fact, it’s been quite generous to me…”
A sense of hidden gratitude arose in Su Che’s heart.
“Which ancient demon god’s heir are you, that you can master these two origins of power?”

Guanghao, who seemed unharmed, glared at Su Che and roared loudly. The only change from before was the red glow flashing in his eyes as they blinked constantly—perhaps due to the severe stimulation from the Light of Destruction, causing discomfort in his eyes.
“You’re in such a state yet still so curious?”
Su Che waved his long sword, mocking him deliberately, actually just to buy time so that Lao He could quickly figure out the properties of that demonic energy in the Immortal Prison and find the right way to counter such demons.
The reason he wanted to control them instead of escaping was that Su Che instinctively felt that what was happening now was most directly related to his own opportunity. That opportunity was right here, and the Witch God hadn’t deceived him.
“Tianyu, Xueyu, since you two can resist basic demonization, it’s clear you’re rare talents worth nurturing.”
Guanghao swung his claws and shouted, “Don’t worry. We don’t intend to kill you two. Instead, we’ll capture you alive to undergo thorough transformation and advanced evolution, turning you into top warriors of our race.”
“You’re quite selfless,” Su Che sneered in response. From Guanghao’s words, it could be inferred that, having been demonized, he had completely lost selfishness and self-interest. In his mind, the interests of his race came first above everything else. This was very different from the extremely selfish Outer Demons, who would unhesitatingly devour their own kind to strengthen themselves, caring nothing for others’ interests and having no concept of teamwork or community. All their actions were driven by the desire to strengthen themselves.
By now, through the Immortal Prison Pagoda, Su Che could clearly sense that as long as he stayed near the silver sphere, that invisible demonic energy would continuously invade his body, trying to demonize him. However, since this energy had no thoughts or intelligence, after being absorbed by the Immortal Prison Pagoda, the subsequent energy that invaded his body also didn’t know how to retreat or fear, and continued to be drawn into the Immortal Prison.
“Come on, however much there is, we’ll take it all. The Immortal Prison has boundless space—no matter how much comes, it can hold it all.”
Though this demonic energy seemed terrifying, Su Che felt that if used properly and a way to counter it was found, it might turn into something extremely beneficial for him.
Huhuuhu…

The demonized Guanghao, Shenmu, and Saintess Lunan flapped their fleshy wings slightly behind them and rushed at Su Che and the other with extreme agility. It seemed as though those wings hadn’t just grown recently but had been honed over countless years, showing no signs of awkwardness or immaturity.
Xueyu waved her hands repeatedly, casting some kind of spatial spell that created a translucent large sphere around her, resembling a defensive barrier. But in reality, it wasn’t a defensive spell at all—it was…
Hiss hiss hiss hiss…
It was unclear what kind of power she possessed, but she managed to draw many translucent lightning bolts from the nearby silver sphere and surround herself with them. Thus, she became a miniature version of the “silver sphere,” using this method to deal with the three demons led by Guanghao.
Surprisingly, this method was simple and effective. The three demons showed obvious fear of those translucent lightning bolts. In particular, Saintess Lunan, who was charging at Xueyu, was struck by a transparent lightning bolt. She let out a strange scream and retreated at several times the speed she had come at, disappearing into the distance.
“I have to admit, this cunning woman really does have skills—she managed to use these lightning bolts to counter them,” Su Che thought resentfully.
Actually, Su Che had already thought of using the power of those translucent lightning bolts to deal with the three demons. After all, those extremely special translucent electric lights could suppress and eliminate demonic energy—clearly their nemesis.
However, Su Che had just used the Light of Destruction and the Purple Crystal Blade’s glow and hadn’t yet had the chance to demonstrate the power of the Great Thunderfall Spell when Xueyu took the lead. It seemed unrealistic to expect the three demons to take care of Xueyu…
Great Thunderfall Spell!
Su Che had to deal with the combined attacks of Guanghao and Shenmu alone, so he didn’t dare delay. He immediately cast the Great Thunderfall Spell, summoning over a dozen translucent electric lights from the silver sphere and slashing them straight at Guanghao and Shenmu.
Hiss hiss hiss hiss…
These translucent electric lights didn’t produce a deafening roar but only a slight hissing sound, similar to that of tearing silk.
“Roar! Roar!”
Guanghao and Shenmu flapped their fleshy wings desperately to avoid the incoming translucent electric lights. Clearly, they hadn’t expected Su Che to have the ability to summon such lightning bolts against them.
Hiss hiss hiss hiss…

No matter how fast their evasion speed was, at such close range, it couldn’t outpace lightning. Guang Hao and Shen Mu were each struck by three to five beams of transparent lightning. As they let out agonized screams, they retreated dozens of feet just like Lady Lunan, returning to where they came from.
