“This…this…” Elder Chu Jia was stammering. He could not even find the words after some time.
The thing standing inside the Wicked Eye Copper Mirror was not Mo Fan. It was clearly a demon from Hell with Mo Fan’s face!
“That’s a Commander-level skeleton…”
“A single punch!”
That guy was not human. How could a human possibly possess such tremendous strength!?
The group of powerful figures was stunned. They did not expect Mo Fan, who was like a lamp that had run out of fuel, to undergo such a shocking transformation. The Commander-level skeleton that was in such a domineering position was blasted to pieces by a single punch!
“Is he the one that was rumored to survive the Demon Experiment in the rumors?” exclaimed Yao Nan after he suddenly recalled something.
Yao Nan and Du Xiao were helping the military to clean up their mess, and so they did learn a thing or two about the Demon Experiment. Not long after, they heard a bunch of Battlemages was sentenced to death for massacring innocent people for the sake of the Demon Experiment!
Yao Nan and Du Xiao only knew that people were kidnapped as test subjects for the Demon Experiment, and there were rumors about someone surviving it…
However, they never thought the person was Mo Fan!
Du Xiao and Yao Nan had witnessed the extraordinary strength of the Demon Element. As such, they immediately recalled the experiment that was prohibited by the Magic Associations of all five continents after seeing Mo Fan’s transformation!
“Wasn’t the Demon Element banned?”
“What are you saying, what Demon Element?”
“Du Xiao, are you sure about that? Maybe it’s some other power that Mo Fan was hiding which we are unaware of.”
Du Xiao fell silent. The truth was, he was only making the call from Mo Fan’s appearance. If it was truly the Demon Element, the way that Mo Fan behaved was still significantly different than what he had heard about the frightful experiment!
The failed test subjects that Du Xiao and Yao Nan came into contact with all had ghastly appearances, looking scarier than the majority of demon creatures. Some even turned into killing monsters without intelligence!
On the other hand, despite the devilish and intimidating aura that Mo Fan had, he did not seem to have lost his mind…
“Assuming that it’s some power hiding in his body, do you think it’s enough to turn the tables around? Stop wasting your time on this insignificant kid!” Chu Jia was at his limit.
Who cared if he was a demon or not, he was just a mutated Magician! He knew there was something wrong about the kid all along, yet they had sacrificed so many lives just to escort him and his group to the Dark Abyss.
“I’m afraid you are unfamiliar with this Demon Element…” Commander Lu Xu spoke.
As an authority from the military, Lu Xu was the perfect person to comment on the dreadful rumors about the Demon Element.
“Is it necessary to understand it? Take a look at the situation we are in!” yelled Chu Jia.
-A bunch of hopeless people, they are all out of their mind!-
“I don’t care if you want to die, but I don’t. If you think he can escape from the Space of Death, feel free to stay here and wait as long as you want… your ignorance is the reason why the city ended up in this situation. Screw your unyielding characters; you will be buried together with those useless trash that only know how to cry!” cursed Chu Jia.
The real character of a person was easily exposed when they were forced into a corner. Chu Jia had totally spilled the thoughts in his heart.
Chu Jia left impatiently, leaving the hesitant crowd behind.
Chu Jia departed with a few other people who wanted to survive too, including some of the authorities. There was no way they would waste their precious lives on a little Magician. Demon Element?
The real demons were the Black Vatican’s Salan, and the highest ruler of the undead army, the Mountain Zombie. This little Magician was no demon, he was mostly a demon slave!
Sacrificing so many lives just to escort the group of Young Magicians to the Dark Abyss was the stupidest decision they had ever made!
“Chu Jia is leaving with a bunch of people… Ling Xi is leaving with him, too,” said Zuo Feng.

The flames circling Demon Mo Fan continuously transformed into devilish, bright fiery feathers, disappearing once they spread into the air.
He lifted his gaze and looked at the remaining skeletons in his surroundings. There were around four thousand of them. Even after losing their leader, the skeletons continued to move in his direction. These brainless creatures had no clue what they were facing!
The soul shadow attaching to his back looked like a wolf demon standing upright. When Mo Fan pointed his long finger forward, the Wolf Shadow impatiently separated from his figure and split into countless pitch-black soul shadows…
The wolf shadows lunged forward like gusts of wind. Their lengthy shadow claws swept in all directions from where Mo Fan was standing, the quick movement of the claws through the air producing shrill cutting shrieks.
The wolves were invisible, only the flickers of the invisibly fast claws could be seen. The skeletons at the front went down first, followed by the army of skeletons behind. The black soul shadows were not only massacring the undead, they were harvesting…
The skeletons were treated like crops. A single slash would eliminate hundreds, or even up to a thousand skeletons in an instant. It all happened in just a few seconds.
The coverage of the soul shadows’ attacks was quite broad. The skeletons around eight hundred meters away who had yet to mentally prepare themselves were torn apart, too. Their white bones once again fell to the ground and combined into a lengthy carpet…
Mo Fan remained in place. The only thing moving was his finger, commanding the Shadow Wolves. It was not his first time controlling the powerful Shadow Wolves. The great massacre that took place at Dongting Lake was the work of his savage Shadow Wolves!
Both the Servant-class skeletons and the Warrior-level skeletons were torn to pieces by a single slash. The claws were as quick as a black gust. It did not matter how many skeletons were left. When Mo Fan only had four Elements, the Wolf Soul Shadow attached to him had eliminated ten thousand Giant Lizards with ease. Now, it had grown much stronger than before. This number of skeletons was nowhere enough for it to sharpen its claws…
Every skeleton that was standing just a moment ago had fallen to the ground.
The Wolf Soul Shadow proceeded to break the bigger bones into smaller pieces, as if it had yet to fully enjoy itself, forcing the skeletons whose undead crystals were already destroyed to experience death again.
“Come back.” Mo Fan took a few steps forward, the carpet of bones clattering.
The shadow wolves sprinted back to Mo Fan from all directions and reattached themselves to Mo Fan’s back in their Soul Shadow form. Although it had not fully vented its desire to kill, it did not dare to disobey its master’s order!
Amid the clattering of the bones, Demon Mo Fan raised his head and looked into the empty sky…
Suddenly, a strange ripple appeared in the direction he was staring at. A silver dot slowly expanded into a spinning vortex!
“How annoying!” Demon Mo Fan harrumphed, and decisively moved toward the silver vortex that was bigger than the ones before it.
