Record of a Demon's Cultivation Chapter 1508: Yu Bi and Rong Luan's Clash

Translator: CinderTL

“Rong Luan, why haven’t you let my nascent soul self-detonate yet? So you can cling to life for a few more moments! Hahaha…” Rong Shao roared with manic laughter.

“Shut up!” Rong Luan snarled.

“Rong Luan,” Yu Bi’s voice echoed from behind, perfectly timed. “You can’t escape. Your cultivation is destined to become the supreme nourishment for my advancement to the great ascension late stage!”

A fierce glint flashed in Rong Luan’s eyes.

In her hand, a crimson pill the size of a chicken egg materialized.

“Yu Bi, the outcome of this battle is far from certain!”

As she spoke, Rong Luan swallowed the pill.

Instantly, her aura surged violently, rapidly reaching the peak of the Great Ascension Mid-Stage. Yet her power continued to surge, poised to shatter the bottleneck.

Seeing this, the sinister grin on Yu Bi’s face froze.

His eyes, previously brimming with greed and mockery, narrowed sharply, now filled with disbelief and terror.

“The Reverse Origin Pill?!”

“Wasn’t the main ingredient, Heart-Corroding Grass, supposed to be extinct? Rong Luan, how did you obtain this pill?”

“Rong Luan, consuming the Reverse Origin Pill will drain your blood essence. At your advanced age, your body is already nearing its end. You simply don’t have enough Blood Qi to sustain it. This is practically suicide! Your physical form cannot withstand the pill’s consumption.”

Rong Luan abruptly halted her flight, turning to glare coldly at Yu Bi.

“Even if I don’t take the Reverse Origin Pill, I’ll still die by your hand. I might as well gamble!”

The fear on Yu Bi’s face vanished, replaced by a nearly hysterical rage.

“Do you think a temporary boost in cultivation from some external object can make you a match for me? Do you imagine I fear you? What truly terrifies me is that your actions have not only doomed yourself but also ruined my meticulously planned ‘human-shaped great medicine’—a scheme I’ve cultivated for years. Without you, how can I smoothly break through to the great ascension late stage?”

His words seethed with fury and resentment, as if witnessing a peerless treasure shatter before his eyes.

“Yu Bi, you’re far too arrogant,” Rong Luan retorted.

Having now broken through to the great ascension late stage, she felt confident in her ability to face Yu Bi head-on.

Moreover, she didn’t believe her physical body was as frail as Yu Bi claimed.

The Reverse Origin Pill hadn’t completely destroyed her flesh.

Once she defeated Yu Bi, she would immediately take Rong Shao to the Devouring Soul Array she had already prepared, where she would devour his life force. By then, the damage caused by the Reverse Origin Pill would surely be healed.

Rong Luan used her spiritual power to seize Rong Shao, then hurled him forcefully toward the Rongqi Giant Flying Ship.

Her intent was clear: she wanted to focus entirely on her battle with Yu Bi, without distractions.

Yu Bi watched Rong Shao streak past him, hurtling toward the Rongqi. After a moment’s hesitation, he decided not to seize the opportunity to capture Rong Shao.

If Rong Luan wanted a direct confrontation, he would oblige.

After all, he would have to eliminate this menace sooner or later.

The air crackled with tension as their killing intent materialized like a tangible force.

Yu Bi manipulated nine Corpse-Suppressing Nails, their dark, abyssal light flickering like the venomous eyes of nine vipers, each locked onto a vital point on Rong Luan’s body.

Rong Luan wielded her bone whip, the weapon coiling and striking through the air like a living serpent.

On the other side, Rong Shao crashed heavily onto the deck of the Rongqi Giant Flying Ship.

The deck immediately cracked, spiderweb-like fissures spreading across its surface, though fortunately it didn’t shatter completely.

Earlier, Yu Bi had forcibly breached the ship’s defensive formation, unleashing a torrent of violent energy that had ravaged most of the ship’s formations.

Now, the entire structure of the Rongqi was compromised, teetering on the brink of disintegration.

It was precisely this fragility that caused the deck to nearly cave in under Rong Shao’s impact.

Zhu Mei flinched at the sight of Rong Shao plummeting from the sky.

She had been planning to slip away unnoticed while the two Great Ascension Stage cultivators were locked in battle.

But Rong Shao’s sudden arrival startled her like a startled bird.

It’s worth noting that besides Zhu Mei, there were several other women on the ship, all from brothels. However, their cultivation levels were too low—none had even reached the Nascent Soul stage—and Zhu Mei wanted nothing to do with them, fearing they would only slow her down.

Zhu Mei cautiously circled Rong Shao, confirming that he was bound by corpse qi and unable to move. She breathed a sigh of relief.

Her attention immediately shifted from Rong Shao to the distant horizon.

There, Rong Luan and Yu Bi had already clashed.

This was the perfect, fleeting opportunity to escape.

After all, the lingering force from two Great Ascension Stage cultivators locked in battle could easily crush her. It was best to leave as quickly as possible.

Just as Zhu Mei was about to take flight, she heard Rong Shao, lying on the deck, whisper, “Take me with you.”

Zhu Mei instinctively glanced at Rong Shao but made no move to help him.

Take Rong Shao with me?

That’s practically suicide!

She had overheard clearly that Rong Shao was the key to longevity extension, and both Rong Luan and Yu Bi were vying for him.

Without further hesitation, Zhu Mei darted toward the edge of the Giant Flying Ship.

But as soon as she cleared the railing, a sudden, terrifying change occurred!

A crimson Blood Wall erupted from the ground, blocking her path just ten feet ahead.

Zhu Mei’s pupils constricted violently, her soul scattering and spirit vanishing in terror!

She was charging forward with tremendous momentum, about to slam headfirst into the Blood Wall.

At the critical moment, Zhu Mei unleashed a torrent of magical power, forcefully halting her momentum just inches from the Blood Wall.

The Blood Wall pulsed, and a figure slowly emerged from its crimson depths.

“Immortal Maiden Zhu Mei, where do you think you’re going?”

Terrified beyond measure, Zhu Mei paid no attention to the man’s words and hastily retreated.

After retreating several yards, she finally made out the figure emerging from the Blood Wall.

Her eyes widened slightly.

“You’re… Xing Chang?”

“It seems the immortal maiden still remembers me. I’m quite flattered,” Song Wen said with a smile.

“How could it be you? Could it be… you approached me just to track down Huang Yangshu’s whereabouts?” Zhu Mei suddenly realized.

“The immortal maiden is indeed as perceptive as she is beautiful,” Song Wen replied, still smiling.

“Xing Chang… Senior, I’ve offended you in the past, but now isn’t the time for that. We should escape immediately. Otherwise, both our lives are in danger. If you help me escape, I’ll serve you faithfully from now on,” Zhu Mei pleaded urgently.
