Chapter 36 Grey Skinned
Liam immediately called on the blessing of the demon king.
Calling forth the demon eye that turned his normally white eyes with red eyeball to pure Jet-black with a glowing yellow eyeball that seems to carry a very high amount of heat and radiated a cold killing intent that vaporises and flowed around the area.
The worshipers at the feet of the lion Legacy tree shuddered as the killing intent entered their body.
"The forest guardian is furious!" One of them from a priest family yelled with a loud voice that filled their ears with fear.
Nevertheless, Liam who was on top of the tree began to view the world differently.
When he looked at the lion legacy tree, it looked almost like blueprint and the core of the tree was hidden in the middle of one of the trunks and it was displayed in glowing red colors, the vessel transporting energy was also displayed to him.
Just then, the voice of human resounded in his ear causing his eyes to brighten demonically and his demon core vibrated.
"Hehe~" Liam let out an evil laugh, he flapped the inferno wings and flew upward looking down at the villagers with the eyes that resembles an eagle looking at its prey.
His presence which was hard to hide was revealed to the villagers who cowered on the spot without a single strength on them.
Just then, Liam\'s smirk vanished and was replaced with a deadly serious face as he descended and advanced towards the priest who has the highest power among the others.
He arrived there immediately and with the demon eyes he spotted the dantian and moved his right hand towards it.
"Ahhhhhh!" The priest yelled as the claws penetrated through his robe and then through his outer layer of skins and then it penetrated into his stomach and then the claws wrapped around his dantian and dragged it out to the open.
At that moment, the priest felt like something have left him, even when his heart was still beating he still felt like he was dead.
Meanwhile, Liam who brought out the dantian containing the power of a level 9 human essence cultivator which was also covered in blood reviewed a cold smile and licked his lips before taking the dantian that looked like a candy into his mouth.
Immediately, he swallowed it and the dantian resembling a candy slide into his stomach and dissolved into pure gaseous essence that was sucked in hungrily by his demon core while a little of it passed through his blood vessel to certain part of his body to strengthen them.
"Delicious. it\'s time for the heart." Liam let out as he used his right hand to hold the priest\'s neck and pierced his hands into his heart, breaking through the cardiac muscles and grabbling the weakly pumping heart.
Liam threw the heart into his mouth, because it was too big, Liam had to chew to make it small enough to pass through his throat.
\'Tasty\' His heart melted and he felt hungry for more.
The dantian tasted liked candy, sweet and easy to swallow while the heart was like a large chunk of fresh meat that was easy to chew and when chewed, it was easy to swallow.
The heart did the same thing once it got inside his stomach. It melted and turned into wisps of blood essence that flew straight Into his demon core.
"Please, messenger of the great forest guardian, don\'t kill us, we were so naive to sin against you." The villagers, still naive, thought that he was an angel sent by the forest guardian to punish them for their sins against the forest.
Seeing their naivety made his mouth water and his mind sang, his demon eye brighten and his demon core got energetic.
Following that, Liam placed his hands on the ground and yelled.
"Inferno wall! Guide my meal, punish anyone that tries to flee and leave their heart beating so I can savour the taste of it!"
Following that, flame as tall as fences appeared out of his hands and began to flow at a shocking speed.
Between three seconds, the Inferno walls have trapped the villagers in it.
Leaving them with no means to flee.
Their eyes moistened, and the death door opened in front of them as they imagined to two grim reapers holding scythes waiting for them to pass through.
The devil of divine flame bloodline soul became more powerful as the inferno wall was there, at that moment, Liam thirst for blood Increased as well as his hunger for power and his legs became fast as he moved speedily to the closest targets and began reaping out their dantian and their hearts at the same time and placed them inside his mouth.
This process continued, hundred persons are already down with their heart and power core reaped out of their pale lifeless bodies.
The police in their midst tried to fight Liam, by using several weapons on him.
The bladed weapons was able to injure but the others couldn\'t.
As the rods beat on his body, after hitting him, they got engulfed in the raging flames and burnt till they turned to powdery ashes and disappeared.
Liam who was busy savouring his plentiful meal felt irritated at the small fished trying to stop him, what should he do?
Instead of saving those fishes for later, why not eat it now?
Hence, he devoured all the police (fishes) before continuing the meals he was enjoying beforehand.
About the injuries left by the swords and other bladed weapons; they healed.
The injuries was healed little by little every time he took in the hearts.
There was a time, he heard a crack coming from his demon core but he was busy with eating so he didn\'t care about that.
His current cultivation was Increasing rapidly.
As his demon core cracked and evolve several times and essence was taken in, his essence cultivation skyrocketed from level 2 human champion realm to level 9.
The blood essence that entered his body, restructured his muscles and his body as a whole, thus increasing his martial arts cultivation and his innate defense has grown so that an iron shield defense has become irrelevant.
((
Liam continued his meal till he got to the last person, who turned out to be a little girl almost 14 that had tears on her face as she grabbed the hands of her mother whom Liam has killed and reaped out her heart and dantian.
Looking at the girl, one\'s killing intent will lower, that\'s natural.
But unfortunately, Liam was supernatural, with a mind that\'s almost as strong as a true demon that can avoid and repel human emotions such as pity and the act of being selfless.
"Little girl, blame it on your mother for bringing you into this mess!" Liam said as he grabbed her girl by neck and pulled her into a warm embrace as his hand made out for her chest and reaped out her dantian first, swallowed it as the girl watched him do so.
The girl became powerless and collapsed on the ground with her hands still opened, the place in her body where Liam have placed his hands to pull her into an embrace was burnt, some part of her faces was burnt as well as a result of a distance between it and Liam\'s body.
Liam moved his hands through the air to grab her body with panic in his eyes.
Nevertheless, what he feared has happened when he saw that her heart has stopped beating.
"Fuck!" Liam yelled as he thrash the body into the flame walls.
Then Liam, sat on the ground with his hands grabbling his his eyes as the demon eyes was starting to bleed after he have used it for too long.
[["Master we\'re forgetting something!"]]
Then came the panicky voice of the devil of divine flame as he warned Liam of an incoming danger.
One and a half minute before the sudden warning from the devil of divine flames_
At the back of the lion legacy tree, the small tiny grasses beneath it began to move speedily in different directions.
Above those grasses, a large oval appeared bit by bit.
Surrounding this hover was a immerse wind power that swirled around it.
The oval descended, landing carefully and noiselessly behind the tree.
After that, a door shaped part of the oval budge out and fell on the ground.
p
"Hehehe, this year\'s offering from the villagers. I hope there will be at least rank 3 materials for blacksmithing and ingredients for alchemy." A voice sounded from inside the oval.
At that moment, a head as oval and smooth as a egg popped out, it was a human being but the skin of this person has turned greyish.
This person was as tall as a 16 year old, but his face told otherwise as wrinkles from old age could be seen and the maturity of his face; it was nothing like a young boy but was that of an elderly man above 70 years.
