Heaven’s Devourer Chapter 1575
Advertisement
Wu Yu could now use the Blood Vortex heavenly rule to perfection. Caliginous Shadow Demon King stood no chance of resisting him.
However, Wu Yu wasn't planning to kill him as he wasn't the kind that would wilfully kill the innocent. All he wanted was to incite chaos through the entire Fiendish Underworld Metropolis. As for these demon kings, he wouldn't have to kill them.
If it was the real Bloodsucking Scourge, he would probably not let the other party off. After all, once the other party grew to strength, it would be a threat to himself too.
Wu Yu was just using the identity of Bloodsucking Scourge currently to wreck havoc. Even if the other party was to seek revenge in the future, he wouldn't find Bloodsucking Scourge. It's even more impossible that they would put the blame on Wu Yu.
Therefore, Wu Yu was just planning to severely injuring the other party. The Blood Vortex heavenly rule constantly drew blood from the target, weakening the target in the process. When Caliginous Shadow Demon King lost all strength to even resist, Wu Yu finally stopped and retracted the Blood Vortex heavenly rule back into his body.
He had absorbed a substantial amount of blood. After losing so much blood, Caliginous Shadow Demon King was no different from being severely injured. His Caliginous devilworm form looked emaciated with barely any blood left in the body. However, strong demon king like him could still survive and not died from it.
In fact, he would just need a period of recuperation to recover and the fresh blood in his body could be regenerated.
This was only possible because Wu Yu stopped in time. Otherwise, the Blood Vortex heavenly rule could even drain a 6-heavens demon king to death directly. Furthermore, the suction force restricted movements and the target wouldn't be able to escape at all.
A 4-heavens demon king like Caliginous Shadow Demon King stood an even slimmer chance.
After severely injuring the Caliginous Shadow Demon King, Wu Yu turned away to look for his next target but left Full Moon of Nanshan behind to watch Caliginous Shadow Demon King. Soon, Caliginous Shadow Demon King regained consciousness and realized what had happened.
Therefore, he sent out an immortal message talisman immediately towards the Underworld Dragon's Den.
Demon kings like him naturally wouldn't be able to contact Diabolical Dragon King directly. Instead, his message was conveyed to a 7-heavens demon king in the Underworld Dragon's Den. The 7-heavens demon king in-charge of him would be the Darkstrife Beast.
Darkstrife Beast probably received the news shortly after. However, if it was just a report from the Caliginous Shadow Demon King, it might not attract the greatest attention. After all, they would be certain the Bloodsucking Scourge wouldn't dare to cause a huge ruckus in this place. Otherwise, Diabolical Dragon King definitely wouldn't let him off easily. Would he possibly see Diabolical Dragon King as a pushover?
Unfortunately, what they had not expected was that Wu Yu's plan was to incite chaos throughout the Fiendish Underworld Metropolis!

Following Caliginous Shadow Demon King, a series of reports from 4-heavens demon kings was made to the Spectral Fire Phoenix, Nightmare Ink Qilin and Darkstrife Beast about Bloodsucking Scourge wrecking havoc in Fiendish Underworld Metropolis and feasting on the blood of demon kings before letting them off with severe injuries.
Initially, the 7-heavens demon kings were occupied with the matters of Diabolical Dragon King and didn't pay attention. They also felt no pressing need to attend to it.
However, as more and more demon kings made their complaints, the 7-heavens demon kings realized the severity of the issue. They had not expected the Bloodsucking Scourge to be so daring to lay his hand on the Fiendish Underworld Metropolis and inciting chaos. Wouldn't this be courting his own demise?
This was the territory of the Diabolical Dragon King!
Therefore, the 7-heavens demon kings relayed the information to Diabolical Dragon King.
In just three days, over ten 4-heavens demon kings and over twenty 3-heavens demon kings were grievously injured by the Bloodsucking Scourge. Bloodsucking Scourge was a 7-heavens demon king. If Diabolical Dragon King wasn't going to get involved, the remaining demon kings in Fiendish Underworld Metropolis or even Underworld Dragon's Den might not be able to capture Bloodsucking Scourge.
Now, everyone in Fiendish Underworld Metropolis was on tenterhooks. Many demon immortals were aware that the Bloodsucking Scourge was ravaging the Fiendish Underworld Metropolis and feasting on the blood of other demon kings. Perhaps his next target might just be themselves!
This was similar to gloom gradually croaching towards the demon immortals in Fiendish Underworld Metropolis. In fact, some demon kings had noticed the events that happened had something to do with the clash between Fiendish Underworld Metropolis and 10,000 Demons Ancient Lands recently. Some even wanted to leave this place to lie low until the fuss died down.
In short, the entire Fiendish Underworld Metropolis was starting to spiral into chaos. The severely injured could be seen everywhere and some were still crying for help. The Bloodsucking Scourge was a 7-heavens demon king. If he chose to, the entire Fiendish Underworld Metropolis together might not be sufficient to stop him.
Diabolical Dragon King finally exploded in fury.
If he left this unmanaged, the entire Fiendish Underworld Metropolis would probably collapsed. The faction that he tediously built up would be destroyed! These were all demon immortals who were paying him tribute.
The reasons why Fiendish Underworld Metropolis was able to attract so many demon immortals who willingly paid tributes were largely they would receive protection and enjoy robust Fiendish Underworld qi.
If Diabolical Dragon King couldn't protect them, just the attraction of Fiendish Underworld qi wouldn't be sufficient to keep these demon immortals. When that time came, Fiendish Underworld Metropolis would collapse and this would be a colossal blow to the Diabolical Dragon King.
It would take at least tens of thousands of years before he could build up a faction like he had today.

His closest aides, including Spectral Fire Phoenix and others, were all chosen from those who came to Fiendish Underworld Metropolis. Without the Fiendish Underworld Metropolis providing the foundation, his closest aides would diminish with each death without replacement. This would be extremely disadvantageous to him.
Therefore, he had to find the one behind all these, Bloodsucking Scourge. He led his men out of Underworld Dragon's Den and into Fiendish Underworld Metropolis to start the hunt for Bloodsucking Scourge.
"Sir, why don't we just declare war against the 10,000 Demons Ancient Lands? How dare they belittle us! They aren't showing any respect for us at all!" Nightmare Ink Qilin suggested in his chilling tone.
Diabolical Dragon King had some considerations and didn't appear interested in starting a war at this point.
From the information he received, the Bloodsucking Scourge had gone too far. The Bloodsucking Scourge was wrecking havoc through Fiendish Underworld Metropolis, keeping everyone on tenterhooks. This was the foundation to Diabolical Dragon King's faction. If it collapsed like this, Diabolical Dragon King would be shamed in front of the world.
"Set aside the talks of war for now. For now, let's capture the Bloodsucking Scourge first." Diabolical Dragon King gave his orders before leading his men out personally!
Full Moon of Nanshan had been stationed at the borders of Underworld Dragon's Den all along and saw Diabolical Dragon King left with the three 7-heavens demon kings in fury. It was apparent they were going to start pursuing Bloodsucking Scourge.
The news was quickly conveyed to Wu Yu so he could make preparations.
Wu Yu was using the identity of Bloodsucking Scourge currently. He was still anxious when he learned that Diabolical Dragon King was personally leading the team to corner him.
His presence was too conspicuous as he was intentionally creating disturbances everywhere. In fact, he's currently using Blood Vortex heavenly rule in the public to absorb the blood of a 3-heavens demon king. Therefore, his location could be easily picked up from a far distance away.
Diabolical Dragon King and the three 7-heavens demon king were definitely rushing over. Wu Yu didn't have a lot of time to react before he sensed a terrifying aura suppression smashing down on him. This left him shaking and couldn't stand upright firmly.
The stifling pressure was from the Diabolical Dragon King!
Under the stifling pressure, Wu Yu felt he couldn't even unleash half the full powers of the Bloodsucking Scourge. Just as the pressure descended, Wu Yu cast Blood Evasion heavenly rule, the escaping technique of Bloodsucking Scourge, to flee from the grounds immediately.
"Now that I've successfully drawn Diabolical Dragon King out, my focus should be running for my life." Wu Yu knew Diabolical Dragon King definitely wanted to kill him. If he continued his acts, it would be extremely dangerous. However, with things progressed to this point, he had no option but to continue wrecking havoc through Fiendish Underworld Metropolis.
The entire Fiendish Underworld Metropolis spiralled into chaos and disarray. Numerous demon kings could only flee in desperation and the entire region was in pandemonium. There was almost no area that was peaceful.
When Wu Yu got away with Blood Evasion heavenly rule, Diabolical Dragon King couldn't catch him immediately. He found another 3-heavens demon king and cast Blood Vortex heavenly rule to constantly suck his blood.
The truth was Bloodsucking Scourge had cultivated in a similar manner by feasting and absorbing the blood of other demon kings. The blood would greatly enhance his cultivation. However, as he was a 7-heavens demon king currently, feasting on the blood of 3-heavens demon kings or 4-heavens demon kings wouldn't have significant effects.
As a result, Diabolical Dragon King definitely had doubts on the motives of Bloodsucking Scourge. He believed Bloodsucking Scourge was definitely not upsetting the peace of Fiendish Underworld Metropolis because of cultivation needs.
When Diabolical Dragon King rushed over, Wu Yu escaped in advance as Bloodsucking Scourge once again. The main reason was because the other party came with overwhelming pressure. Once they got closer, Wu Yu would be able to sense and would escape in the opposite direction.
However, on the third try, Wu Yu didn't feel the approaching preesure when he found the space around him sealed. All of a sudden, he was caught in it. Clearly, this was a technique of Diabolical Dragon King. He had used some Mystique or heavenly rule power to trap Bloodsucking Scourge!
At this point, Bloodsucking Scourge's Blood Evasion heavenly rule wouldn't be of any use. If this was the real Bloodsucking Scourge, he could only wait for his own death after he was trapped by Diabolical Dragon King's technique. There's no way he could escape.
However, the current Bloodsucking Scourge was Wu Yu!
Before Diabolical Dragon King arrived, Wu Yu did a flip and escaped from the imprisonment of Diabolical Dragon King instantly with Somersault Cloud.
When Diabolical Dragon King and the three 7-heavens demon kings arrived, they didn't see any signs of Bloodsucking Scourge at all. Their expressions darkened immediately. In their perspectives, Bloodsucking Scourge seemed to have mastered a new escaping Mystique. This was the only explanation as to why he would dare to openly wreck havoc in Fiendish Underworld Metropolis.
Immediately after he managed to escaped, Wu Yu infiltrated into the Underworld Dragon's Den.
Diabolical Dragon King and others were currently in the Fiendish Underworld Metropolis. When he infiltrated into the Underworld Dragon's Den, he was like a fish in water and was able to locate the Ancient Demon Dragon Perpetual Devourer immortal design that the other demon kings had help to lay previously. Although the segments of immortal design were concealed, Wu Yu was still able to find them one after another.
This would definitely infuriate the Diabolical Dragon King!
