AKU BERBEDA

Outwit the Demon



Outwit the Demon

0"How could that be!"     

His anger peaked because he felt like he was being deceived. He also glanced at Liu Kang, constantly moving in the distance. Of course, he wanted to chase after his, but when he looked at the 20 replicas, he felt that one of Azura's Jar replicas was real. Because of that, the Demon chose to take all of Azura's jar replicas from the hands of the cultivators who had just taken Azura's Jar replicas.     

"What is this thing? Why does this Jar seem to give off a mysterious power?"     

Strains!     

One of the cultivators who didn't get Azura's jar replica immediately killed one of the cultivators holding the urn. He snatched it and put on a big smile because he felt that Azura's jar replica was something precious.     

Several other cultivators wore contorted faces and stared at the nameless cultivator, who was probably independent.     

"Hmm? Is that some spiritual beast?" One cultivator suddenly opened his mouth, and his voice was loud enough for the other cultivator to stare at where the cultivator was looking.     

"Dead!" The Demon, who was very close, also swung its claws with long, wide nails.     

SLASHED!     

The Demon passed by one of the cultivators at the Sixth Stage Of The Earth Realm and directly split it. After that, he caught Azura's jar replica and immediately squeezed it, knowing it was a fake jar.     

"Who are you?"     

"Spiritual beast?"     

All the cultivators there immediately took out their weapons. They got ready if the strange figure that was a Demon attacked again.     

"Hand over Azura's jar, or you will die!" Threaten the Demon.     

The cultivators were confused because they didn't know the language the demons spoke. They would understand if it was a cultivator from the Continent Of Light Or The Continent Of Darkness. Because that was the language spoken.     

On the other hand, the Sky Continent uses a language used exclusively by cultivators from ancient empires that have collapsed. Much time passed, and the language spoken remained the same. Hence, the original languages of the other two continents were no longer known to the Humans of the Sky Continent.     

As the cultivators kept quiet, the demons got even angrier and immediately charged in to kill them all.     

The cultivators didn't stay still either and charged straight at the demons thinking they were some rare spiritual beast that only existed in the ruins of an ancient kingdom.     

BAMMM!     

A battle ensued between one Demon and dozens of cultivators. Of all the cultivators who fought demons, some were weak with the cultivation level of the sixth stage of the Earth realm. But the rest were quite strong as the average reached the Eighth Stage Of The Earth Realm Tier.     

***     

In a faraway place, Liu Kang continued to shoot at full speed. He had already seen from a distance that the demons had clashed with the human cultivators.     

"Husband, it seems your plan succeeded in deceiving that strange creature." Fei Lan said as she hugged Liu Kang in a direction. She felt very proud of her husband.     

"We're not safe right now. We better get as far away as possible because I think those cultivators will only last 10 minutes." Liu Kang said and immediately set another trap so that the demons would not track him.     

"Heaven! Get rid of my scent and traces together with Fei Lan!" Liu Kang's order in his mind.     

    

[Held]     

[Activates a system-originated barrier]     

Hearing that, Liu Kang smiled slightly as he felt that many other system functions had appeared after the system features were upgraded.     

Meanwhile, Fei Lan remained silent. Since her husband had said that, she didn't argue at all. After all, he did feel very comfortable when he hugged Liu Kang.     

***     

SLASHED!     

The battle between the demons and dozens of human cultivators has ended. And it was true what Liu Kang had predicted, that the Demon would destroy all the motivators in about 10 minutes.     

"Damn it! There's no real Azura's Jar! That damn human dared trick me!" The Demon immediately shot towards the place where Liu Kang had gone before.     

The Demon initially wore a wide grin because it had stepped up to torture Liu Kang for daring to trick him. He also used a technique to track someone but immediately stopped midair because he couldn't track anything.     

"Shit! How did that human cover up everything, even the smell?" The Demon was even angry and then used some small movements.     

"Even if you could do that, Azura's jar would still be traceable!" Said the Demon, angry.     

After trying to trace the position of Azura's Jar, the Demon's body froze as not even Azura's Jar could be traced. Something like this has never happened before.     

"No... No... How could there be something that can hide Azura's urn, which is the inheritance of the devil race?" Even the demons began to tremble at this moment. He already deeply regretted not going after Liu Kang straight away.     

"Impossible. If the treasure is not used, the devil nation will never be able to reach its peak!"     

"I am a Demon born without Qi so I can pass through the barrier between the human and Demon realms! I am Special for having the power of neutralizing Qi, and one day I will become one of the Demon Princes!"     

"No... No... this can't be happening!" shouted the Demon, knowing that things were getting more difficult. His dream is to become one of the lords in the demon realm.     

The Demon princes dub him the representative to enter the human realm; if he succeeds, he will be appointed the new prince. Also, with that kind of extraordinary power, he would become the strongest Demon after receiving another gift from the demon princes. That is the treasure that earned him the prince's crown. It makes him very strong.     

The demon princes didn't know that its power that could negate Qi. If they knew, surely the demon princes would not let him live.     

The power of neutralizing Qi was something very extraordinary. He only needed to train his body constantly until he reached the Peak level, and his Qi-neutralizing power would also grow. The Demon, from the start, only uses wings to fly, unlike other Demons who use Qi to fly because it's more practical.     

Knowing that his dream would be destroyed if he didn't have Azura's Jar, the Demon immediately moved around randomly. He will stop at nothing until he finds Liu Kang's whereabouts and retrieves Azura's Jar.     

That's why the Demon was imprisoned by humans, too, because it could intercede for Qi in the heavens and earth to be channeled to the island so it could float. His body would not be able to explode from the excess Qi due to his strength. And humans have also devised a way to make the devil's body a medium for channeling Qi.     

***     

Time flies, and unknowingly, it has been more than two days since Liu Kang escaped from the Demon with his wife. There was no system notification that a demon was after the two of them.     

While moving on, Liu Kang and his wife naturally paid attention to everything, whether or not there were important items to take.     

"Husband! Look over there!" Fei Lan also pointed in a certain direction.     

Liu Kang, who was thinking, looked towards a place far away. He was amazed by what they found.     

"What's that?"     

"I didn't expect that there would be a place like that in this ruin too. If we don't see it in person, we won't believe what's ahead." Fei Lan spoke and stared into the distance.     

"Yes, you're right." Liu Kang nodded slightly.     

The two remained suspended in the air and continued to look off into the distance.     

Far ahead, you can see a waterfall that falls upside down from the ground to the sky of the cave. Not only that, even where the waterfall ends, you can see forests, mountains, and even some areas frozen over.     

It covered more than a quarter of the area of the ancient ruins. Because of the vastness of the place, cultivators would not pay attention from the start when they entered because it was impossible to see the edge of the ancient ruins.     

Liu Kang guessed that the place must have been created after the ancient empire collapsed or maybe even crazier than he thought.     

"Husband! Look there; so many cultivators have come to that location. They all seem to be standing on the ceiling!" Fei Lan exclaimed. She, of course, also wanted to go there because she felt the place was very interesting.     

Liu Kang immediately shot at high speed toward that place without wasting any time. The three were still moving; he watched from all directions that all the cultivators had also made that place their point of departure at this time.     

It was certain that such a place would interest them all without exception to himself.     

Less than 1 hour later, Liu Kang and his wife had almost arrived. But he suddenly stopped because there was a notification from the system.     

    

[The gravitational force in this place is the opposite of what gravity should be]     

[Analyzing Without Host Command]     

Liu Kang needed clarification about why the system was running independently. That often happens if something is important, such as a notification of a deadly attack, or the body is not in good condition.     

"What's wrong, husband?" Fei Lan asked in astonishment because Liu Kang suddenly stopped in midair.
