Survival: The Evolution of an Evil God Starting from a Spider

Page 272

The enormous, trashy puppet—which was essentially a skeleton—instantly transformed into a white blur, launching a surprise attack on Liu Ziming. It had to be said, its intentions were extremely insidious. "Good timing! I want to see just how arrogant you really are!"

Without any hesitation, Liu Ziming reached out and pulled out some strange, unrecognizable object from somewhere. He then slashed forward. "Holy crap, is the boss performing magic? Where did he pull out such a bizarre thing, radiating immense energy? This is too overpowered!"

The Flame Dragon Elder, unable to defeat the puppet, stared wide-eyed in disbelief when he saw his leader, Liu Ziming, launch a direct attack on it. "You, you, how could you have this?"

It must be said that the resentment of the demon king who had survived for a thousand years did indeed possess superior abilities, and he managed to evade Liu Ziming's attacks from some bizarre angles.

Seeing Liu Ziming holding that bizarre weapon, he trembled. Although his eyes looked particularly empty, a sense of fear was clearly felt.

"Hehe, I didn't expect you to know about this. That makes things easier."

Chapter 408 is just a small piece of peach wood.

"Haha, I never thought a demon king would be afraid of a mere piece of peach wood. What a ridiculous joke!"

Liu Ziming casually fiddled with the piece of peach wood in his hand, looking particularly smug, and the smile on his lips was somewhat sinister.

"My goodness, when did our boss get such a broken thing? It's made of wood! But why is that demon king so afraid of it?"

Even the giant ape's predecessors widened their eyes, looking somewhat bewildered. Boss Liu Ziming was clearly holding a piece of peach wood in his hand, and it wasn't polished at all, so why was that thousand-year-old demon king's resentment trembling all over, standing motionless in place?

"Tell me where you got this from? Have you also lived for a thousand years? That's impossible!"

Actually, this demon king, who had lived for a thousand years, was completely killed in that ancient battlefield battle by the peach wood in Liu Ziming's hand, which is why he appeared so terrifying. "Oh, you're asking me about this piece of wood? It's simple. I just picked it up by chance while playing a game. Is there anything strange about it?"

Seeing the calm expression on Liu Ziming's face, the Demon King's puppet looked even more terrifying, constantly retreating as if it were trying to escape.

"Heh, I'm also curious. Why are you so afraid of this piece of broken wood in my hand? This doesn't seem like your personality at all. You have the title of Demon King for nothing?"

In fact, Liu Ziming said this entirely to provoke the demon king's desire to fight. If this guy was determined to escape, he really didn't have a good way to keep him here.

"Don't waste your time. I've lived for so many years, that's enough. I don't want to be killed by this guy again, or I'll have no chance of being resurrected." After saying these words, the demon king's puppet did not hesitate at all. It transformed into a huge cloud of thick white mist and fled into the distance.

Liu Ziming watched the direction the Demon King puppet fled in, a calm smile on his face, seemingly unconcerned about letting it escape. "Boss, why aren't you making a move? If this guy escapes, he'll be a huge threat to us in the future!" The Flame Dragon Elder looked anxious, sweat beading on his forehead as he saw his boss, Liu Ziming, making no move.

"Hehe, senior, don't worry. This guy can't escape at all. This is an ancient battlefield where resentment has been reborn. Where do you think he can hide?" Hearing the calm words of the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, the Flame Dragon senior thought for a while and felt that it made sense.

But he really couldn't bear to watch the demon king's puppet escape right before his eyes. If he had even a little more power, he definitely wouldn't have done it. "Trying to run away doesn't seem so easy. Even if I don't completely grind you to dust, I'll teach you a lesson so you'll never dare to cause trouble again?"

Liu Ziming raised his left hand, and the strange piece of peach wood shot forward at an extremely bizarre angle, its speed exceeding even their comprehension. "My goodness! That piece of peach wood in Boss's hand is no ordinary item! It actually has sentience and can chase after that escaped demon king's puppet! That's incredible!" "My god, what did I just see? Liu Ziming is so audacious! It's just a pity about that sentient peach wood!"

"Holy crap, he calls himself the Demon King? He turned and ran as soon as he saw Boss Liu Ziming take out that piece of broken wood. He doesn't even have the ability or confidence to fight. He really doesn't deserve the title of Demon King." As Liu Ziming raised his left hand, the piece of peach wood, along with its strange angle and speed, shot forward, and everyone had different feelings.

However, they all felt that the boss, Liu Ziming, had his own reasons for doing this; this guy never did anything that would lose money.

However, with a sharp crack, the fleeing demon king froze instantly, as if under a spell. "I told you, even if you try to escape, I'd teach you a lesson. Why aren't you running anymore?"

Liu Ziming's expression was extremely exaggerated. He even walked with an air of nonchalance, leisurely approaching the demon king puppet and slapping it hard across the face. (Requesting flowers.)

"How dare you humiliate me like this? I'm invincible. As long as my wish can be fulfilled, you won't escape my clutches!"

The demon puppet's resentful eyes were filled with boundless rage, but at this moment, he was helpless. After all, he seemed to be frozen in place, which he found very strange, as this had never happened before. "Holy crap, boss, you don't need to go to such lengths, do you? You froze this guy with a tiny piece of broken wood? Are you really a magician?"

Seeing that the Demon King's puppet's shadow had been frozen, the old Flame Dragon seemed very curious, and kept striking it from all sides, trying to find out the secret, since not everyone could possess such a skill.

"My goodness! We didn't believe Liu Ziming when he said he had acquired an unexpected skill, but it seems it's true!" The Seven-Colored Deer still covered his mouth with his hand to suppress his surprise, because he found it too astonishing.

Now, Liu Ziming has proven to everyone with his actions and facts that he can unexpectedly gain energy boosts. As long as someone kills a high-level vengeful spirit, he can gain skills. It's truly unbelievable that such a bizarre thing could happen to this guy.

"You don't even have the courage to fight me, yet you keep shouting and clamoring. Is this the courage you've gained from living for a thousand years?"

It has to be said that Liu Ziming is extremely arrogant now. After saying these words, he reached out and slapped the Demon King Puppet hard across the face.

Although the slap blew the demon puppet's head off, it quickly returned to its original form, but Liu Ziming didn't care at all.

"Haha, you can only vent your anger. You can't completely shatter my resentment. You simply can't do it?"

The Demon King's puppet continued its incessant shouting, but to his utter dismay, Liu Ziming persisted in humiliating him, as if his words had no effect whatsoever.

Chapter 409 On-site Explanation

Perhaps Liu Ziming had had enough or was tired of fighting, but he finally stopped, his expression remarkably calm, though his smile was extremely eerie. "Boss, is there really no way to make this guy disappear completely? This is a real problem?"

Because the elder giant ape noticed that the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, was constantly hitting the figure of the Demon King puppet with either his hands or his feet, but the figure would quickly regenerate after it shattered, he felt something was particularly strange and asked directly.

In fact, it wasn't just the giant ape elder who felt something was strange; everyone else shared the same thought. They felt that the demon king puppet's energy was not to be underestimated, and their expressions were quite exaggerated, though they didn't say it aloud. "What are you all thinking? The boss has been going through all that trouble counting 'two, two, three' with his hands, haven't you figured anything out yet?"

It has to be said that since the Flame Dragon Elder awakened his ancient ancestral dragon bloodline, his thinking has indeed become quite broad. From Liu Ziming's skills and movements, he seems to have figured something out.

He felt that Liu Ziming's calm demeanor, seemingly unaffected by the Demon King's puppet, must have a hidden reason. "Senior Flame Dragon Mo, what nonsense are you spouting? Liu Ziming is just venting his frustrations and dissatisfaction; there's no other reason!" Slime Mirror, his fiery temper flaring, ignored everything else, pointing a finger at Liu Ziming with disdain. "Slapping people and kicking them—what other reason could there be? That's the biggest joke in the world!"

The cat angel also seemed particularly surprised, because he really couldn't discern anything from Liu Ziming's skills and kicks, so he firmly sided with the slime mirror. "Sigh, there's really no way to deal with you people, you're all simply incorrigible?"

Just as everyone was debating Liu Ziming's strange behavior, he unexpectedly let out a long sigh, looking quite regretful.

Seeing Liu Ziming's arrogant behavior, it has to be said that Slime Mirror's fiery temper instantly exploded. He rushed up and kicked Liu Ziming in the butt with great force, as if he wanted to teach him a lesson.

"Heh, did you think of something? The force of your attack was so great, are you trying to cripple me?"

But how could Liu Ziming give the Slime Mirror such an opportunity? He clearly felt a gust of wind coming towards his backside, so he moved extremely strangely and successfully dodged the Slime Mirror's attack. "Didn't you guys really see that Liu Ziming was actually giving us a live explanation? No wonder he kept sighing?"

Ever since Princess Yuebai joined the team, she's been acting strangely. She rarely speaks, only uttering a few words at crucial moments, but those words carry immense weight. "Hey Yuebai, are you confused by Liu Ziming? He's giving a presentation, but he hasn't said a word! Are you kidding me?" The giant ape elder looked at Princess Yuebai with a particularly odd expression.

Therefore, he mistakenly believed that Princess Yuebai said those words because she was influenced by Liu Ziming.

"Senior Giant Ape, if I may be so bold as to ask you a question, did you really think that Liu Ziming was venting his dissatisfaction by relentlessly attacking the Demon King's puppet's shadow with his palms and feet?" Hearing Princess Yuebai's probing question, the Senior Giant Ape trembled involuntarily. He seemed to sense something, but then couldn't quite grasp it, or perhaps he sensed nothing at all? "Haha, I know why it's like this now, I know why it's like this now?"

Just as everyone was questioning Princess Moonwhite's words, the old Flame Dragon seemed particularly excited, gesturing wildly as if he knew something, jumping around incessantly. "Old man, have you been through something? Why aren't you caring about your image?"

The giant ape seemed quite puzzled by the Fire Dragon's behavior, and even had the urge to grab him and slap him across the face...

"Hehe, old monkey, what Yuebai said makes perfect sense. Boss is giving us a live explanation. Since we can't completely destroy the Demon King's puppet figure by using our hands and feet, don't we have any other ways or methods?"

Perhaps due to his excessive excitement, the Flame Dragon Elder didn't explain what he was thinking, but his words, like those of the Moon White Prince, sent a shiver down everyone's spine. "Holy crap, I never imagined that Liu Ziming's constant beating of the Demon King's puppet with his hands and feet would have such a profound meaning. But why doesn't he just say it directly? He's obviously just bluffing!" Slime Mirror also had many questions, but he found Liu Ziming's arrogant behavior quite distasteful. "Haha, old man, what you said seems to make some sense. Have you thought of any other methods?"

The giant ape elder held the hand of the fire dragon elder, looking particularly happy, as if he had gained something from the fire dragon elder's eyes.

"Although I'm not sure if my method will work, we can try it. Didn't Boss Liu Ziming just try several methods? Are you really a little kid who needs Boss to teach you everything step by step?"

Upon hearing what the Flame Dragon Elder said, the Giant Ape Elder's face instantly turned red. He felt that what the Flame Dragon Elder said did make some sense. If everything relied on Liu Ziming alone, it would indeed be a very dangerous thing in this magical beast forest, in this ancient battlefield left over from thousands of years ago.

"Hehe, in a moment I'll let this guy taste what my real flames taste like, what grilling feels like?"

Hearing the old Flame Dragon say this, everyone felt that he was being a bit smug, because his previous attempts to attack the Demon King puppet with fire had had no effect, so why was he thinking of using fire to attack again now?

Chapter 410 This is OK

Seeing the somewhat excited expression on the old Flame Dragon's face, everyone was puzzled. Did the old Flame Dragon still have some real flame hidden? "Everyone, don't blink! It's time to show off your true skills!"

The old Flame Dragon was as excited as a mischievous child, reminding everyone not to blink. Then, he concentrated his energy, and a small fireball burst out from his palm.

"Haha, I really didn't expect this! The Flame Dragon Elder would actually make such a joke. Just now, even a huge fireball couldn't burn away this Demon King's puppet. This tiny fireball is just a joke!" Cat Angel and the others covered their mouths with their hands, laughing very happily, because they thought the Flame Dragon Elder was really funny.

"Cat Angel Sister, why are you laughing so happily? Don't you really believe that the Flame Dragon Elder's flames can burn away this Demon King's puppet?"

The mischievous Seven-Colored Deer's expression was incredibly interesting as he spoke these words. He was clearly mocking the Flame Dragon Elder, yet he spoke with such seriousness.

However, their words had barely left their lips when the scene of their embarrassment began.

The crackling sound of burning instantly rang out from the flames, so clear yet so strange. "This works? That's amazing!"

Everyone stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that the Flame Dragon Elder had used a single, small fireball to incinerate the Demon King Puppet's form, leaving it completely disintegrated and lacking any ability to reassemble, making it appear particularly eerie. "Congratulations, Elder, on significantly improving the quality of your flames! It seems you were hiding your true strength all along!"

In fact, the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, was also surprised to find that the Flame Dragon Elder had once again used his flame technique. However, the flames he used this time were worlds apart from the flames he used last time.

"Haha, you flatter me, boss. Just a moment ago, it was as if my mind suddenly had a breakthrough, and I realized that I could improve the quality of the flame."

Seeing the somewhat humble expression on the Flame Dragon's face, the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, couldn't help but nod.

Even the Demon King's puppet never dreamed that when it was once again subjected to the fiery roasting of the old Flame Dragon, its body would undergo some strange changes, and it began to regret its actions. "What kind of magic did you use on me that could melt my body instantly, making it impossible for me to reassemble?"

Amidst the burning blue flames, the demon puppet emitted terrifying sounds and appeared extremely frightened, as if it were about to explode at any moment.

"Haha, that's not magic at all, it's the true fire I took from heaven! You can't withstand it at all. It can burn everything in the world, including you shameful fellows!" Because the Flame Dragon Elder hadn't expected that his condensed true fire could actually burn the Demon King's puppet, he appeared particularly arrogant, laughing loudly as he spoke. "This is impossible, this is impossible!"

The demon puppet's voice carried a sense of terror, growing fainter and fainter until it finally disappeared completely.

In truth, the true fire condensed by the Flame Dragon Elder alone probably wouldn't have been enough to truly make the Demon King's puppet disappear. It was because Liu Ziming had been constantly striking the Demon King's puppet with a piece of peach wood that the Flame Dragon Elder was able to do so so easily.

"Holy crap, the true fire you've conjured this time... the smell of barbecue is really awful!"

The giant ape elder covered his nose with his hand, feeling somewhat uncomfortable due to the pungent smell. He hadn't expected the Demon King's puppet to emit such a strong odor when burning; it was beyond his comprehension. "Don't worry, everyone. The Demon King's puppet will cease to exist after it completely burns. It's just that the smell is a bit unpleasant; it won't cause any major harm."

Seeing everyone covering their noses and trying to hold it in, Liu Ziming spoke up. He had to dispel everyone's doubts, after all, this was an ancient battlefield left over from ancient times, which was no joke.

The blue true fire condensed by the Flame Dragon Elder crackled and burned incessantly. After about thirty or forty minutes, the Demon King Puppet's figure finally disappeared completely. However, a black object shone with a ghostly blue light within the flames, appearing particularly eerie.

"Holy crap, the Flame Dragon Elder is too awesome! He can do it this way, and this way too?"

At this moment, Yuebai's expression was no longer calm. Her eyes were fixed on the black object in the blue flames, and she looked particularly excited.

Actually, it wasn't just him; everyone else who saw the black object emitting a ghostly blue light also felt something was very strange, but no one dared to touch it. They didn't want to become guinea pigs. "Hehe, boss, what is that thing? Could it be something demonic?"

223 The Flame Dragon Elder pointed to the black object within his blue flames and asked the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, in a low voice.

Even he himself didn't know why such a black object had appeared within his blue flames, emitting a ghostly blue light and appearing particularly eerie. "Ahem, if my guess is correct, this thing should be the final condensation of the Demon King's puppet, perhaps similar in nature to a relic?"

Upon hearing what their leader, Liu Ziming, actually said, everyone's expression became incredibly interesting. This was because the relic was a legendary treasure that they had never seen before. If the thing that this demon puppet had conjured today also had such power, that would be wonderful.

"Haha, since the boss says so, does that mean we've unexpectedly obtained another treasure?"

Since arriving at the ancient battlefield, the old Flame Dragon has been talking about treasures all the time, as if he has endless desire for the treasures in this ancient battlefield, and as if the treasures in the ancient battlefield are everywhere.

"This black object is a treasure, but it seems we can't use it? Because it contains boundless demonic energy, which cannot be integrated with our true energy."

Chapter 411 The Bloodline of Moon White

Just as everyone was filled with longing for the black object in the blue flames, they had no idea that Yuebai's expression was so exaggerated.

"This thing is the bloodline of an ancient demon king from a thousand years ago. None of you can possibly consume it. If I'm not mistaken, it's as if he's related to me by blood?" Everyone had already given up on their curiosity about the black object, but they hadn't expected the Moon White Princess to say this. Their expressions were incredibly exaggerated. "What did you say? Your bloodline hasn't awakened yet? That's highly unlikely!" Actually, Liu Ziming wasn't entirely sure about this mysterious Moon White Princess either.

But hearing him say that, he felt very strange. As the daughter of the Demon King and a princess of the Elf race, if she hadn't even awakened her own bloodline, then where did her terrifying strength come from? "Don't think I'm greedy for this black treasure. Actually, I don't want to have such a bloodline either, after all, I am the Demon King's daughter." Looking at the somewhat lonely expression on Yuebai's face, the old giant ape seemed to care for her very much.

He knew that Yuebai was not inherently bad; she had simply inherited some of the Demon King's bloodline, a fact that couldn't be changed. "Since that's the case, you can retrieve the black object yourself. We don't have that kind of ability."

Actually, Liu Ziming said this entirely to test whether Princess Yuebai's words were true. She couldn't understand how Princess Yuebai could possess the bloodline of the Demon King. "No, absolutely not! If we let Miss Yuebai awaken the Demon King's bloodline, she will probably lose her humanity. That would be a disaster! I strongly oppose it!" At this moment, the Slime Mirror roared loudly like an enraged lion, appearing extremely displeased.

It wasn't just the Slime Mirror who had this fear; everyone else felt the same way. If the princess who had started menstruating were to awaken her demonic bloodline, her demonic nature might erupt, leading to a true catastrophe. "Let's abandon this terrifying idea. Actually, I don't want it to happen either. If I really awaken my demonic bloodline, I'm afraid I'll truly lose my true nature, and I might never be able to see my mother, whom I miss so dearly, again."

Actually, when Yuebai first had those strange thoughts about the black object, it wasn't her true feeling. Rather, the black object seemed to be calling to her, and she couldn't control her thoughts at all. "Hehe, it's nothing serious. It's just awakening the Demon King's bloodline, right? If you really can't control your nature, I won't hold back. Don't worry, I have a way to control it." In fact, Liu Ziming, as their leader, said this entirely because he had absolute confidence that he could control the whole situation.

However, everyone was worried about Liu Ziming's statement because they felt that Liu Ziming was not a god.

"Don't deceive yourself. You just want to help Miss Yuebai find her mother, right? If he really awakens the Demon King's bloodline, that will be a huge problem. You should think it over carefully." No one expected that the Seven-Colored Deer would directly confront Liu Ziming, appearing particularly arrogant and waving its fists in displeasure.

"Don't worry, I have a way to awaken his Demon King bloodline, and I also have a way to control it. After all, this is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity, how can we give it up so easily?"

Hearing that Liu Ziming had actually made up his mind, the others really had no objections. After all, among these people, Liu Ziming was the strongest, and no one knew exactly how strong he was.
