Wei Binghai and Yue Ruxin carried the heavily injured and unconscious Xu Wuji out of the middle section of the Dragon Ice Canyon very quickly, returning to the front section.
They had completely left the range of activity of the Heart Disheartening Bone. For a Heavenly Demon like the Heart Disheartening Bone, it was absolutely disdainful to come to the habitat of Earth Demons.
"That brat actually took the initiative to charge forward. He saved me some trouble."
Wei Binghai, who had transformed into the Ice Divine Dragon, had a cold expression on his face. After leaving the range of the Heart Freezing Teeth, he could no longer observe the situation of the battle in the vicinity. However, he was sure that Kang Shin-mu would definitely be killed by the Heart Freezing Teeth.
"It's just a pity for Xi Yuying and Jiang Liuxue."
When Wei Binghai thought of the two women, he felt that it was a pity. However, compared to his own life, these two women were nothing. In any case, they were not powerful existences. They were just a bit beautiful.
However, what he did not know was that Xi Yuying possessed the Five Extreme Mystic Ice Power. It was just that her divine dragon bloodline had yet to be fully awakened.
As for Jiang Liuxue, the Sky Mysterious Jade Fire Dragon, her future prospects were extremely promising. She was only slightly inferior to the Red-horned Demonic Dragon blood essence that Jiang Zizai had obtained. It was just that she was born in the Jiang Clan, so her cultivation resources could not keep up. If not, she would not be inferior to the current Wei Binghai, and might even be stronger than him.
Yue Ruxin took Xu Wuji with her and directly prepared to return to Dragon Ice City to find a way to heal.
After suffering such a serious injury, even if Xu Wuji survived this time, he would probably have to rest in bed for more than half a month. Moreover, it would definitely cost a lot to heal his current injuries.
When she thought of this, Yue Ruxin felt rather resentful towards Wei Binghai. Why did he choose an opponent like Han Xin and Gu Ya?
If they had avoided the Heart Chilling Fangs and chosen another opponent, it was very likely that they would have already killed the first Heavenly Demon. In that case, Xu Wuji wouldn't have been seriously injured and their Demon Hunter mission wouldn't have failed.
From the looks of it, the demon hunting mission was likely going to fail. This was because they had to kill three ninth Firmament Skydemons within half a month. Now that Xu Wuji was heavily injured, it was extremely difficult for them to hunt Skydemons with their strength.
Even in the past, the three of them needed to use all their strength to deal with ordinary ninth Firmament Skydemons.
Now that they didn't have Xu Wuji's help, it was almost impossible for them to kill a Sky Demon, unless they encountered a Sky Demon that was already heavily injured …
However, this kind of luck was even more uncertain.
"Mission failure is mission failure. We just have to deduct some Monster Hunter Points. We can earn it back later."
Wei Binghai didn't care much about the Monster Hunter points.
However, Yue Ruxin was different. She was not a young master of Dragon Ice City like Wei Binghai. Neither she nor Xu Wuji had particularly impressive backgrounds, so they had to work hard to earn cultivation resources, or it would be very difficult for them to increase their cultivation.
Even if Wei Binghai didn't have any Demon Hunter Points, he could still use the family's cultivation resources to help him improve.
However, without Xu Wuji and Yue Ruxin's Monster Hunter Points, it would be very difficult for them to obtain other cultivation resources to improve themselves. Moreover, just treating the heavily injured Xu Wuji would cost them a lot of resources. The wealth they had accumulated over the past two or three months would be gone in a single go.
Yue Ruxin blamed Wei Binghai a little for all of this. Unfortunately, even if she blamed Wei Binghai, it was impossible for Wei Binghai to provide them with any assistance. Instead, it was likely that he would scold them for being too weak and unable to defeat Vengeful Spirit.
"Perhaps, it's time to change companions …"
Yue Ruxin gritted her teeth as she thought to herself.
If they were willing to come, there would be no need for them to take such a risk to hunt Heavenly Daemons. While hunting Earth Daemons would be slightly more complicated and the Monster Hunter Points would be earned more slowly, there would not be too much danger to their lives. In the end, things ended up like this, which made her feel far too miserable.
"But fortunately, I managed to escape with Wuji, or else …"
When Yue Ruxin thought about how Xi Yuying and Jiang Liuxue were still near the Vengeful Spirit and had attacked it, she shook her head rather pitifully.
She rejoiced that she was still alive. Although they had suffered great losses, anything was possible as long as she was alive.
In her opinion, Xi Yuying, Jiang Liuxue, and that newcomer Kang Shin-mu had definitely died to the Vengeful Spirit already. There was no possibility of anything unexpected happening.
However, what she did not know was that the Vengeful Spirit's furious roars were constantly ringing out from the Vengeful Spirit's location in the middle of the Dragon Ice Canyon.
Streaks of golden light and pitch-black Shadow Dragon Fangs constantly erupted from the pitch-black dragon's body. Afterwards, the pitch-black innate ability of devouring constantly surged out and enveloped the Vengeful Spirit's entire body. It continuously devoured all the power within the Vengeful Spirit's body!
Daemon energy was endlessly replenished into Kang Shin-mu's body, allowing him to recover from the injuries he had sustained from the Vengeful Spirit's desperate attacks earlier.
Even if he was as heavily injured as Xu Wuji, as long as he was given a daemon core, he would be able to recover easily. He would be as lively as a tiger after fifteen minutes. This was the terrifying aspect of the devouring ability.
As long as he did not die, he could recover rapidly!
Kang Shin-mu's resistance to the power of ice was already extremely strong. After continuously devouring the Vengeful Spirit's ice daemon energy, it became even more impossible for the power of ice to harm Kang Shin-mu's life.
The main reason was that the strength of the Vengeful Spirit wasn't too strong. Even Jiang Rong was able to fight against it.
If the Vengeful Spirit was two levels stronger, then Kang Shin-mu might have died here today. Because with that kind of power, he wouldn't even have time to recover before the Vengeful Spirit could completely kill him. In a situation where he would lose his life, it would be useless no matter how much he devoured.
After the time it took for two incense sticks to burn, the Vengeful Spirit had become extremely weak.
Jiang Shenwu's entire body was shrouded in a golden light. Then, countless golden halberds descended from the sky, and finally, the Heart of Chill's bony body was cleaved into two from the center. The gigantic Heart of Chill fell heavily onto the ground of the Dragon Ice Canyon, emitting a loud rumbling sound. Several hundred-year-old ancient trees were flattened, and a cloud of dust was kicked up.
The Vengeful Spirit was dead!
Kang Shin-mu didn't think too much about it. He descended and took out the Vengeful Spirit's daemon core. At the same time, he took out a sixth-grade ice core.
This sixth-grade ice core could be exchanged for many good items in Dragon Ice City. However, if he wanted to exchange for something useful to Kang Shin-mu, a sixth-grade ice core was definitely not enough. He needed at least ten of them to exchange for a third-grade or fourth-grade dragon martial technique.
It was too difficult to exchange for a second-grade one.
However, to Kang Shin-mu, if he continued killing ninth firmament demons at this speed, it wasn't impossible for him to exchange for a second-grade dragon martial technique.
"Now, apart from increasing my cultivation level, I also want to increase my combat strength. I can only start with the dragon martial technique."
