Chapter 138 Willow
Chapter 138 Willow
At this moment, Little Black Bear was exceptionally excited, his blood rushing like a stampede of ten thousand horses, causing his heart to continuously throb, gradually awakening the power hidden in his veins.
Little Black Bear let out a roar that shook the wilderness, with an invisible soundwave sweeping towards the Bull Demon King.
Cracks suddenly covered the armor of the Bull Demon King, a result of the hidden power within the soundwaves.
He touched his slightly damaged armor and said with a laugh, "Your kind is still as annoying as before."
At the same time, Red Child also underwent a transformation, his body enveloped in roaring flames, his hair and eyebrows turning to the shape of flames, even his eyes filled with the terrifying Samadhi True Fire. At this moment, he seemed to be the incarnation of fire, utterly devoid of any emotion.
Red Child, standing in mid-air, gently raised his hand, and numerous flame-formed long spears appeared around him. With a gentle wave downward, the countless spears of flame smashed down towards the Bull Demon King like a torrential downpour.
The Bull Demon King sneered, sending Little Black Bear flying with a stroke of his iron rod, and swung it around, shouting, "Return to the heavens!"
An invisible barrier seemed to appear around him, the spears of flame striking this barrier and causing ripples to spread, soon the ceaseless spears of flame shattered the barrier.
The roaring flames engulfed the Bull Demon King's burly body, a sea of fire rampaging over the land, the intense heat even distorting the air.
Soon, the flames dissipated, revealing the Bull Demon King's figure in the sea of fire, looking somewhat disheveled. After all, the power of Red Child's Samadhi True Fire was not negligible, and it was not easy to withstand such a strike. His armor was charred black, with cracked pieces slowly falling to the ground.
The face of the Bull Demon King was also scorched black, yet he wore a bizarre smile and said, "I didn't expect to underestimate your strength. In today's Three Realms, among the younger generation, you are considered strong. Don't worry, I wouldn't kill such promising seeds like you. I will only merge you with me to become my new pawns."
"Dream on!" came the voice of Little Black Bear, his body instantaneously transforming into a giant bear the size of a hill, charging at the Bull Demon King with the forces of wind and earth surrounding him.
The Patriarch of the Nether River then slightly smiled. Yuantu and Abi Sword materialized, their formidable Sword Qi instantly breaking down Red Child's and Little Black Bear's offensive, causing blood to spray out instantly.
With merely a light strike, the two figures had already fallen to the ground, their blood gushing out. This disparity in strength filled the two proud young ones with a sense of defeat.
"To have forced out my treasured sword, you can certainly be proud of yourselves," complimented the Patriarch of the Nether River.
He controlled the eyes of the Bull Demon King, looking more and more pleased with the two little ones lying on the ground. Although they were still young, the potential they exhibited was immensely surprising. With proper training, they would grow into two powerful pieces under his command, and he would no longer be as restrained as he was now.
"Come now, I will treat your bodies well, don't worry, it won't hurt at all." The Bull Demon King's face bore a sinister smile as he slowly approached the two on the ground, with two bright red seeds forming in his hands.
"Eat these, and you will be mine!"
Red Child struggled to resist, but found the Sword Qi remaining in his wound burst with such power that he could not move his body, and could only watch helplessly as the Patriarch of the Nether River, manipulating his own father's body, stepped closer to him.
However, just as the Patriarch of the Nether River was full of pride, ready to harvest the two immensely potential pieces, a sudden emerald light burst forth from Red Child.
The light shone in the air, transforming into a towering willow with resplendent radiance, dropping down thousands of silk threads, protecting them all within.
Red Child looked down at his body and realized the light was emanating from a willow leaf bestowed upon him by Guanyin before she left.
Under the glow of this light, the wounds inflicted by Yuantu and Abi Sword on Red Child and Little Black Bear healed at a visibly rapid pace. Before long, both were restored to their original state, overwhelmed with joy and relief.
As for the Patriarch of the Nether River, he was now frowning at the ethereal image of the willow. There was a power on this image that made his heart skip a beat, yet he had never heard of such a mighty willow throughout the three realms.
Yuantu and Abi Swords swung out, their chilling Sword Qi sweeping across the ethereal form. However, this Sword Qi, which could easily tear through space, seemed to lose all its power at that moment, disappearing before it even reached the image.
