The Simple Life of Killing Demons

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of demon soldiers and demonic insects were absorbed by Augustine. As if he had become a black hole, he devoured everything, then he switched his targets to the spirits.

Many spirits, who had not reacted yet, were stuck to the black tentacle. They emitted a devastating scream as their bodies rapidly withered, then aged, until only wrinkled skin and clothes remained.

Seeing their comrades being sucked away, nearly a hundred thousand spirits erupted into screams of horror, rushing desperately in other directions.

There were quarreling, shoving, and trampling.

The mental state of the spirits, which was just fearful and uneasy before, had now escalated into panic.

Many thin and weak spirits were ruthlessly crushed by their companions, falling to the ground and being trampled. Some were injured, while some were even dead.

"Hahahaha! Not a single one of you can escape!" Augustine's energy rapidly increased, and another wave of energy-sucking tentacles burst out from his body.

Currently, not only the spirits, even the other demons of the clan began to retreat, avoiding Augustine. Although the demon clan were not afraid of death, it did not mean they were willing to die. Dying in the hands of the enemies in a battlefield was glorious, but dying in the hands of their own kind was… disgraceful.

Although the demonic insects were unable to have thoughts, they could sense danger. Different from the retreating demon soldiers, the demonic insects chose to actively attack the enemy. For them, tearing the enemy into pieces and chewing them up was the best solution.

The appearance of the demonic insects inadvertently contributed to the spirits' escape. They were in large numbers, while Augustine's energy-sucking tentacles were not up to a thousand.

"You trashy insects, without any power, how dare you stand in my way!" Augustine ceased absorbing.

His hands emitted a burst of black laser, sweeping through the demonic insects.

Yalide had already bounced away and back to Lin Xiang's side, still holding a little spirit girl, who was chewing on candy cluelessly in her arms.

"Yalide! What should we do!" Lin Xiang's side of the battle was also considered over after all the demonized spirits lost their lives and died. After going through a series of battles, the spirits’ state of mind, which had been greatly improved earlier, now had no trace of fighting spirit left within them as they looked at Augustine, who could be described as terrifying

It was due to them having not much strength left, and also due to the enemy being simply beyond their ability to confront.

"If it were someone else, it might have been easier. With depletion of energy, we could’ve just killed them off. But I never expected this guy to show up," sighed Yalide. "He's a fearsome figure. In the past, whether it was humans or angels, just hearing his name would make them tremble in fear."

"I understand…" Lin Xiang had never seen such a horrifying enemy, one who could absorb the energy of living beings. Wait, couldn’t Yalide absorb energy too? If she can absorb Augustine's energy, then it’d be…

Yalide knew what Lin Xiang was thinking and interrupted his thoughts, "Don't be silly, it won't work. If he could, I would have absorbed his energy long ago. Well, although I can't absorb his energy, he also can't absorb ours. He can only absorb demonic power and spiritual power, not dragon energy. For us, this is good news."

"Hmm." Valarie nodded, while Bellina heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Yalide's words.

"Everyone, let's quickly make an escape. The farther the better. Staying here will only make us targets for absorption," Yalide said to Wind Fury and the others.

"But, Great Dragon God, is there really nothing we can do to help?" Wind Fury furrowed his brow. The situation was getting worse, and the group of spirits that were captured earlier were now scattered due to fright.

"Of course there is," Yalide replied. "Leaving here is the best help you can offer."

"That guy… What is he doing?" The demon clan fighting against the spirit elders stopped one after another, watching Augustine.

"Although he's only killing small fry, they are still my subordinates. It makes me very unhappy," a hoarse and murky voice came from a large insect.

"What rank is he?"

"Not sure. His energy is increasing with each absorption. Right now, his level is estimated to be around a baron's."

"I didn't expect that the summon would bring out such a weird guy. Shall we do something?" Several demons of the clan glanced at each other.

The mud demon of the clan that fought evenly with Earthite was the first to step forward.

————

Augustine, who was using lasers to kill the demonic insects, suddenly felt the ground beneath him soften like he was in a swamp, causing him to start sinking.

"Where is this trash coming from?" Augustine's tentacle went into the ground, then it stopped descending.

"Hmm?" Letting out a questioning sound, Augustine laughed, "I see! How dare a little baron want to take me on? Where do you think you're going!"

A burst of black gas erupted behind Augustine, condensing into a large tentacle.

The tentacle swayed in the air like a snake, flying out for a distance, then slamming into the ground.

"Bang!" Rock fragments scattered everywhere.

The tentacle stirred underground for a few moments, as if trying to grab something. Soon, it was pulled out again, revealing the mud demon, which was firmly gripped in its grasp.

"Perfect! I was lacking energy like yours."

The mud demon of the clan continuously struggled, transforming into mud, and attempting to escape through the gaps between the coiled tentacle. However, the tentacle quickly turned into a wrapping, entirely covering the demon.

It could be seen that something was inside the wrap, trying to extend outwards, as if a person was struggling in a sack. However, after a few seconds, the struggle ceased.

The wrapping returned to being a black hand and retracted into Augustine's body. The mud demon no longer existed.

"Ah!!! That is it. I feel so much better!"

"What! He absorbed Nike! Now, his strength is at the level of a viscount!" The noble demons were shocked.

"Let's go back. This guy probably wants to absorb things to restore his original power. What kind of monsters are the ancient demons! I never knew there were any demons from the demon clan who could absorb others."

"No, there are, but he is just a fallen noble. Let's wait for him to finish absorbing before making our next move. Otherwise, we might get absorbed too."

After coming to an agreement, a noble demon took out a scroll and unrolled it. A black magic teleportation array appeared.

Several noble demons stepped onto it and disappeared from the spot.

The demonic insects were mostly killed off, and there were not many demon soldiers left. They were born for battle, and of course, they died for battle too. Therefore, the remaining demons joined forces with the demonized spirits, who took the darkening pill, and ended up fighting the soldiers from the royal palace.

The current situation was that the demon clan were retreating back to the world beyond the skies using teleportation scrolls. Meanwhile, only the spirits remained to face the unleashed Augustine.
