Wen Yu slowly walked to the edge of the pit, carefully observing the writhing figure not far away!
The ancient demon's lower body had disappeared, and a massive wound at the waist was charred by the heat generated from the plasma grenade explosion.
Its four arms had completely collapsed.
The scales on the upper body were shattered, revealing the organs inside.
The face was unrecognizable, blown to bits.
Despite suffering such immense injuries, the ancient demon was still alive!
Its eyes could no longer see, but the ancient demon continued to emit piercing screams, while the demonic energy around its body surged wildly.
This was a demonic energy explosion.
In a short period, the ancient demon had unleashed up to five bursts of demonic energy in succession!
And it was still going!
But this was just a dying struggle!
"Pop."
The crisp sound of a lighter igniting echoed as Wen Yu lit a cigarette and slowly exhaled a puff of smoke.
The smoke drifted upwards, shrouding Wen Yu’s face in a haze, making it indistinct.
As its stamina was heavily depleted, the power of the demonic energy explosion grew weaker and weaker, until it eventually disappeared.
The ancient demon's screams gradually faded away, leaving only ragged breaths in the end.
Quietly extinguishing the cigarette, Wen Yu walked step by step towards the ancient demon.
The severely damaged ancient demon heard the footsteps and immediately cried out loudly.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me! You've won, I surrender! I can control demonic creatures, I’m of great use! I am willing to submit to you! Please, spare me!!"
The ancient demon's voice no longer held the previous coldness and brutality, only a desperate plea, like a drowning dog.
"Oh."
Wen Yu replied lightly, but it seemed to give the ancient demon a glimmer of hope for survival.
"I can control demonic creatures! I can give you intelligence! I'm willing to be your slave, your lackey! I am willing to do whatever you ask!"
"Turns out, you are also afraid of death."
Wen Yu's deep voice rang out, but it was drowned out by wave after wave of the ancient demon's pleas.
"What... what?"
The ancient demon didn't hear Wen Yu's words clearly and asked again.
"I said, go die!"
Wen Yu's roar erupted as he stepped forward, the Touch of Greed in his hand, enhanced by its phasing ability, directly plunged into the ancient demon's head.
"No..."
Accompanied by the ancient demon's shrill howl, Wen Yu directly dispelled the phasing state of the Touch of Greed.
The Touch of Greed seemed to have rooted directly in the ancient demon's head.
With the enhancement of the phasing ability, it ignored defenses. This kind of attack was a contest of the material strength of both sides.
The claws of the Touch of Greed were equivalent to a D-grade weapon, while the brain matter inside the ancient demon's head could not possibly be stronger than a D-grade weapon.
Thus, the one to sustain injury was the ancient demon!
As Wen Yu's right hand exerted tremendous force, a sharp, grating sound rang out.
This was the sound of the Touch of Greed's claws scraping against the ancient demon's skull.
Wen Yu slowly moved the Touch of Greed, exerting all his strength to inflict the maximum damage and...
The greatest pain!
The ancient demon's cries grew weaker and fainter beneath him.
Wen Yu gradually withdrew the Touch of Greed, and the ancient demon's head had already been reduced to a mushy state.
This time, even with the body of the Ancient Demon Clan, it was dead beyond redemption.
"Hu!"
A low sigh escaped Wen Yu’s lips as he looked at the ancient demon's mangled body and then at the surrounding yellow sand.
After a while, Wen Yu shook his head and directly extracted the magic crystal from the ancient demon's head, exiting the battle state, and immediately fed it to the little soul beast.
The magic crystal from the ancient demon held immense power; it took the little soul beast quite a while to fully digest it.
Wen Yu silently sensed that just a single magic crystal from the ancient demon had raised the little soul beast's physical quality from 50.5 to 55.5 points.
