"Damn it…" Shesi had relaxed, which was why he hadn't reacted in time. He hadn't expected Ojo to make another move. Shesi immediately thought of something, cut open his wrist, and let his blood flow into Soi's mouth.
Soi's wound on his stomach instantly healed visibly, but he showed no sign of waking up. Shesi placed Soi aside, while Ojo across from him watched in shock, then for some reason suddenly recalled something he had heard before.
"Granting healing to all things, hahahaha, so it was you! Hahahaha!" Ojo's laughter gradually became manic.
"Kill the future Demon King? I, Ojo, will be the first! Hahaha!" Ojo immediately charged at Shesi. Seeing this, Shesi quickly kicked Soi, sending him flying, then began to fight with Ojo.
Ojo's attacks became reckless, trading injuries for injuries.
Shesi couldn't help but struggle to parry for a moment, until Ojo kicked the demon scythe, sending Shesi flying some distance, ending the exchange. Ojo licked his hand, which had Shesi's blood on it.
After Ojo finished licking, many of his injuries healed.
"Hehehe, truly delicious," Ojo said, then the skeletal wings on his back opened. What was shocking was that instead of wings, there was something like a spiderweb on the skeleton.
Seeing this, Shesi's pupils contracted. He had seen this before: the spider silk of the Demon Spiders on the eastern battlefield.
"What, have you already started your disgusting human experiments?" Shesi said, panting heavily.
"Oh? You actually know, hehehe, then I definitely can't let you escape, although I never intended to let you escape, future Demon King!" Ojo spread his wings, and things resembling spider legs appeared on his back as he charged at Shesi. Shesi's eyes narrowed, and he quickly raised the demon scythe in front of him, trying to block Ojo's attack. The result was unsatisfactory; Shesi's demon scythe broke in half upon contact with the attack.
Shesi could only throw the two broken pieces of the demon scythe aside and retreat, narrowly dodging to the side.
"Hehe, it broke~ What will you do next?" Ojo didn't continue to pursue, as if he was toying with his prey.
Shesi just panted a few times, then said,
"Do you know, I really like a saying from my classmates and teachers, do you know what it is? The closer you get to success, the more dangerous it becomes." Shesi looked at Ojo, then made a gun gesture with his hand at his temple.
"Bang"
With a gunshot, Ojo stiffly turned around, only to see Soi had woken up, still holding Shesi's pistol.
A huge hole had appeared in Ojo's chest.
"Although without my operation, I can't use [Exorcism] to annihilate the body, but this time, with your heart gone, can you still live?" Shesi finally let out a sigh of relief, his nerves also relaxing as he looked at Ojo in front of him and spoke.
Ojo immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, then knelt down.
"Cough cough… If that's… the case, then…" Ojo then shattered his black teeth, and a miniature syringe appeared from within.
"Witness the results of Lord Rayleigh! Hahahahaha!" A burst of maniacal laughter followed, then one, two, three tentacles emerged from Ojo's body and intertwined. Seeing that something was wrong, Shesi immediately rushed to Soi, picked him up, and ran out.
"Damn it, why do they all have so many trump cards? Is this a game of 'Cautious Hero'?" Shesi grumbled. Suddenly, a tentacle attacked. Shesi could only barely dodge, then threw Soi out again.
Soi: I feel… those two hits were quite painful. Soi shouldn't have woken up, but Shesi's kick just now woke him up. That was also when he gave Shesi the secret signal.
Shesi looked at the pair of tentacle amalgamations in front of him, his sanity rapidly dropping.
"Where did this take me? Is this still the Demon Realm? Did it bring Cthulhu to me?"
Shesi grumbled, but from his expression, Shesi's condition was not good. Originally, Shesi had cut his wrist to save Soi, losing a lot of blood, and then fought Ojo; he was now at the end of his rope.
"It seems I'll have to try this thing this time," Shesi looked at the pistol. Shesi had already taken this thing earlier. Because it wasn't used for [Exorcism], the pistol seemed to be able to fire one more bullet.
Shesi pointed the barrel of the revolver at his temple.
"Then let's try it! The third shot of [Demonic Transformation]"
Bang
With the gunshot, Shesi was immediately sent flying by the powerful impact of the gun.
Even the tentacle amalgamation seemed to freeze for a moment, then a powerful thumping sound was heard.
Thump
Thump, like a drumbeat? No, like a heartbeat. Shesi, who had fallen to the ground, slowly stood up. He was now three meters tall, compared to his original two meters in demon form. His physique, which originally had only a few abs, also became incredibly strong.
His skin also turned dark red, his pupils became vertical golden pupils like a leopard's, and the wings on his back, due to the exhausting battle, spread out and stretched. Dark golden feathers seemed to be slowly falling around him, but Shesi's transformation did not stop there. The bracelet on Shesi's hand seemed to become restless due to his changes.
Then a flash of light passed, and the bracelet turned into an inscription carved on Shesi's hand. Shesi's eyes also changed from golden to dark golden, and his hair was still white but seemed to have grown longer.
The demon horns on Shesi's head also began to grow rapidly, eventually becoming like ram horns. The tail behind him also became sharp, and dark golden flames seemed to burn on it.
Shesi's body trembled uncontrollably.
"Ah hahahahaha! So good! Such a wonderful feeling!" Shesi was immersed in the feeling of becoming stronger. Shesi clenched his fists, and purple lightning flashed with it.
"Hahaha, the feeling of power is truly wonderful!" Shesi's facial muscles twisted due to his wild laughter. Suddenly, Shesi stopped laughing and looked at the giant tentacle amalgamation beside him.
"What are you looking at? Ant."
The tentacle monster only felt its pupils constrict dramatically before it was lifted by Shesi. Its huge body, even with Shesi now three meters tall, still made him feel slightly small in comparison, yet such a discordant scene occurred.
It was as if a small cat was looking down at a tiger, but now the small cat was not a small cat but a Flerken, and the tiger was still a tiger.
The tentacle amalgamation looked at the small figure in front of it and only felt immense fear emanating from him. Although it had no intelligence, its instincts told it that the person in front was very dangerous!
The tentacles seemed to make up their mind, and several tentacles instantly shot towards Shesi like arrows. Shesi merely waved his hand casually, and purple lightning shattered them. The air immediately filled with the smell of grilled squid. The tentacle amalgamation also cut off the piece of flesh Shesi was holding, like a warrior severing his own arm, then pulled back to create distance.
Seeing this, Shesi did not pursue but threw the useless flesh aside, then walked to the two broken pieces of his demon scythe.
