The centipede demon drew its weapon, ready to fight us to the death.
From the demonic energy it exuded, I could sense its cultivation level.
Around the Zhen Guang realm, I'd estimate.
Such strength posed no real threat to us.
However, this demon possessed certain abilities, like its corrosive demonic light and its regenerative capabilities.
But aside from these, its power was insufficient to overpower us.
Upon seeing this, my martial uncle let out a cold snort.
"Go, kill this demon!"
With that, my martial uncle charged forward.
Lao Mo and I flanked him, following suit.
Seeing us advance, the centipede demon raised its iron needles and lunged at us.
As it closed in, it continuously thrust its needles towards us with whistling sounds.
With its eight arms, it swung its iron needles like a porcupine.
Fighting against the three of us alone, it held its ground in terms of techniques.
It even launched continuous killing blows.
"You three humans are destined to be this demon lord's food."
It shouted loudly, with a guttural growl.
Seeing this, I prepared to use the Yin Yang Treasure Beads to finish it off directly, not wanting to waste time dealing with it.
But before I could even deploy the Yin Yang Treasure Beads, my martial uncle produced a black leather belt.
Several copper coins were attached to it.
This was the Demon Binding Rope.
My martial uncle intended to use the Demon Binding technique.
Upon seeing this, my martial uncle sneered and threw the Demon Binding Rope forward.
He formed hand seals and, with a low growl, chanted:
"Lin Bing Dou Zhe Jie Zhen Lie Qian Xing, Chi!"
Instantly, the Demon Binding Rope shot towards the centipede demon with a "whoosh."
The centipede demon, seeing this, raised its iron needles and thrust them.
But the Demon Binding Rope was too fast, entangling it in the blink of an eye.
And then it tightened.
The centipede demon was immediately bound in place.
It fell with a "clang."
Lao Mo seized the opportunity, raising his axe, crackling with arcs of electricity, and brought it down.
"Die!"
Just as the centipede demon was about to be struck down.
The centipede demon suddenly roared.
"Awooo…"
Its roar was immense, and a powerful surge of demonic energy was unleashed.
Its body began to swell and grow at an astonishing rate.
Green light flashed.
With a "crack," the Demon Binding Rope snapped instantly.
In that moment, the centipede demon transformed into a colossal centipede, about ten meters long.
Lao Mo, unable to dodge, was sent flying by the demonic energy.
With a "clang, clang, clang," he tumbled several times on the ground.
"Martial Brother Mo!"
Xiao Yao cried out, rushing forward, her face filled with concern.
Seeing this, my martial uncle and I our expressions turned cold.
"Abomination!"
With that, we each took out our Yin and Yang Beads.
If we didn't show it some real power, it wouldn't know our might.
My martial uncle was also enraged.
"Old monster, you've gotten too bold!"
With that, my martial uncle also charged forward, arcs of electricity dancing around him.
The colossal centipede demon lunged at my martial uncle, biting at him.
"Die, human!"
As it spoke, it spat out a corrosive green mist.
My martial uncle could only block with his protective aura, preventing himself from being corroded.
Meanwhile, I had already produced the Yin and Yang Beads.
Instantly activating them in my hand.
The Yin and Yang energies vibrated. I pointed my sword finger and chanted, "Chi!"
The two beads swiftly flew out, heading straight for the centipede demon.
Upon seeing this, the centipede demon raised its body, its front leg-like appendages waving wildly. Green light shot from its dozen eyes, targeting the Yin and Yang Beads.
With two "bang" explosions.
The Yin and Yang Beads remained unharmed, continuing their trajectory towards the centipede demon.
The centipede demon cried out in fear, "Wuwuwu," and hastily retreated.
My martial uncle also freed his hands and unleashed a palm strike.
"Crack!" A bolt of electricity shot out, hitting the centipede demon's body.
The centipede demon let out a scream of pain. The area it was hit turned black and charred, oozing green liquid.
However, it still hadn't struck a vital blow.
"Damn humans, I will devour you."
It coiled its body and continued to crawl towards us.
And it headed directly for me.
Seeing the centipede demon charge, I raised my peach wood sword and swung.
With a dull "clang," my peach wood sword was caught by the pincers at the centipede demon's mouth, and I couldn't pull it free.
Looking at the centipede demon's enormous body and the dozen eyes on its forehead up close, I felt a pang of nervousness.
I was about to control the Yin and Yang Beads to attack the centipede demon from behind.
But suddenly, a faint glow coalesced in the centipede demon's eyes.
It was about to fire its corrosive beam.
Seeing this, my face turned ashen with dread.
At such close range, if I were hit by that corrosive beam, I would surely die.
However, just as I was about to dodge, Xiao Yao rushed up from behind.
She spat out a mouthful of blood directly onto the centipede demon's head with a "plop."
The blood fell like raindrops, covering the centipede demon's head and eyes.
This was Xiao Yao's Heavenly Gang Fiery Blood, which demons could not touch.
Upon contact with this blood, it let out a piercing wail.
Its eyes blinked incessantly, emitting black smoke with a "sizzle, sizzle," and were being corroded by Xiao Yao's blood.
At the same time, Lao Mo launched a flying kick.
He sent the centipede demon tumbling, relieving the pressure on me.
The centipede demon was in immense pain and could no longer focus on attacking us. After being kicked by Lao Mo, its body bounced uncontrollably on the ground.
It cried out in agony.
"It hurts, it hurts so much, what is this blood, it's killing me, it hurts…"
Its voice was truly pathetic. The surrounding centipede hordes that had retreated now surged forward again.
They swarmed in, from all directions.
Seeing the opportunity, my martial uncle shouted.
"Kill it!"
With that, he charged forward.
Lao Mo also raised his axe and hacked fiercely at the centipede demon's massive body.
Xiao Yao quickly retreated, to avoid being a liability by being caught in a surprise attack from the centipede demon.
I didn't have time to thank Xiao Yao and Lao Mo for saving me earlier.
Staring at the centipede demon, I clasped my hands together and chanted with a low growl.
"Heaven and Earth Without Limit, Qian Kun Borrow Law, Chi!"
The Yin and Yang Beads hovering in the sky suddenly shot downwards, heading straight for the centipede demon's head…
