Demon Sword Sect's Undercover

Chapter 1172: Demon Goat Showing Its Power


Amidst the clamor of tens of thousands of monsters, the first monster on the Alliance's side stood on the pinnacle of Bone Mountain. It was a Demon Goat with a pair of unique long horns, curved with a mysterious arc.

A tuft of beard under its chin, its eyes a peculiar one black and one white, possessing a stable cultivation at the Nascent Soul stage.

Since it was the first battle, it could influence the momentum thereafter. The Sea Clan did not choose to deploy according to strength hierarchy but sent out the most powerful lone Flood Dragon of the Sea Clan, an old veteran oceanic power, having been a Nascent Soul for over five hundred years.

"No, this Demon Goat might also be a fierce demon from Outer Space, lurking quietly all along. The Alliance wants to wipe out the Hai and Yi Clans right from the get-go to deliver a shocking blow." Hou Niao saw clearly.

Tan Xiao sneered, "It seems these extraterrestrial Demon Clans have been prepared for a long while, intentionally showing strength with only four, while hiding the fifth. The mismatched eyes of this Demon Goat are suspicious."

Hou Niao sighed, "It's difficult! If we must go up and challenge all the Mountain Demons at once, it's hard for them not to suspect us."

Tan Xiao had no good solution either, "Alas, Nineteenth Aunt's Divine Skills are too limited. What is she doing coming out here as a peacock cub?"

The two were at a loss here, but in the Battle Arena, there was no such hesitation. The lone Flood Dragon did not take this old goat seriously. In terms of bloodline, it was a close relative of the Dragon Clan, while the goat was merely livestock.

It hovered, clouds and winds moving under its feet, exhibiting a faint air of a dragon among clouds. As it neared the Demon Goat's head, it opened its mouth wide and spit a ball of True Fire. Though not as formidable as the breath of a true Dragon Clan, it was a rare specter blue fire from the deep sea, not hot, but cold to the core. If the opponent is careless, they will fall into its trap.

The Demon Goat neither dodged nor evaded, meeting the blue fire by merely swinging its horn, emitting a mysterious force field that allowed the blue fire to pass through without causing any damage.

The lone Flood Dragon was astonished. Its blue fire was forbidden in the ocean, no existence could remain unscathed under it. It was not merely burning, but a mental attack that enveloped the opponent in fear, rendering them unable to extricate themselves, leaving them vulnerable to its sharp iron claws.

It was still unsure if the Demon Goat had fallen for it.

Before it could fully comprehend, the Demon Goat leaped, resembling lightning. This short-range burst was superior to Instantaneous Movement. In a blink, it was beside the lone Flood Dragon, its shiny horns glistening with a peculiar brilliance.

The opponent was not dominated by fear, a scenario that surprised it but did not panic it. Through long years, it had weathered too many storms, making it indifferent to any disturbance in its Heart Realm.

Physical collision is a compulsory lesson for every Demon Beast's growth.

It was about to expand its body, using its iron claws to make the goat understand the sea power's might; at this moment, the Demon Goat's eyes flashed with a strange light, its black and white eyes transforming into a very familiar pattern. If it remembered correctly, this should be the Taiji pattern unique to humans' cultivation domain. It had seen it but had no understanding.

How could a Demon Goat comprehend this?

Before it could react, its consciousness seemed to be drawn into a Taiji space, everywhere enveloped in incomparably mysterious black and white, spinning and blending, making its consciousness unable to extricate itself.

Realizing something was wrong, demonic power surged, its mind delved into the Demon Core, attempting to use the ancient bloodline strength of the Flood Dragon to counteract this Taiji trap. It succeeded, but it was too late.

When its consciousness cleared, it was greeted by excruciating pain at the neck, a goat horn deeply inserted into its body, the frenzied twisting followed by the surge of the Demon Goat's demonic power corroding its robust body into a riddled mess...

"Taiji Dao Realm? How does a Demon Beast know the Great Dao?" Hou Niao was genuinely surprised this time.

Tan Xiao, coming from the Daoist Sect, understood more in this regard, "It's Innate Taiji; appearing on a Demon Beast is merely accidental, and it's very difficult to ultimately comprehend the Taiji Great Dao; these are two different things. But at this level of battle, such Divine Skills are nearly insurmountable, not just for the Sea Clan, even we humans would be seized without resistance."

Hou Niao nodded, "Perhaps not unsolvable; as long as it's not too close, I see this Demon Goat's Taiji Divine Skills have a great distance limitation, so it needs to close in; just maintain distance... but the problem is, how many Demons understand the importance of maintaining distance?"

Tan Xiao pondered, "It's hard, if I can't control remotely, and you can't emit a sword from afar, how can we fight?"

Nineteenth Aunt snorted, "What are you afraid of? I'm here! That bit of Dao Realm can't capture me, truly faced with this goat, you just exert yourselves, and if trapped, I will naturally pull you out..."

Hou Niao was speechless, "How to exert? Nineteenth Aunt, have you seen mules or horses pulling carts swinging swords to slay people?"

Nineteenth Aunt was very irresponsible, "That's not on me, you think of a way yourselves, kill without attracting monster attention..."

The two laborers exchanged a glance; they had discussed this for a long time and to be honest, accomplishing this under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of Demon Clans was really challenging.

This battle, deep in the desert, was destined to be not an easy journey, they dared not show any signs of being a normal intelligent human.

... The Demon Goat won the first match, placing the first master of the Sea Clan, the lone Flood Dragon, under its horns. It flowed smoothly throughout, without any hindrance, making the monsters both delighted and cautious inside.

But few Demons could really grasp what happened in that brief instant? The Demon Clan's understanding of the Great Dao was not high. The Taiji Eyes of that Demon Goat could only be activated at close range, so within the whole Sea Clan, no one could pinpoint the peculiarity.

However, human cultivators were incredibly sensitive to this, yet had no obligation or appropriateness to point it out.

This failure was a significant blow for the Sea Clan. Observing the whole conference process, first there was the massacre of Octopus, and then the ingenious strike against the lone Flood Dragon. This greatly impacted the Sea Clan's confidence. It was apparent; all the Sea Clan members looked solemn, never expecting that once they left the sea, they would be so vulnerable.

The heaviest consequence of the strongest player fighting first was this: once defeated, the entire morale would be heavily traumatized, leading to self-doubt, and generating fear, causing increasingly poor performance.

The course of the battle also proved this point. Subsequently, a giant scadfish, a killer whale, and a turtle dove all succumbed in defeat. Facing the Taiji Eyes of the Demon Goat, they had no room for resistance, unrelated to body size. Under the Great Dao, the physical foundation was meaningless.

Finally comes a chum mullet; in all the Demons' eyes, it was just here to fill a form.
