Chapter 623 High-Tier Demon King
The golden light emerging behind Wang Yan was simply too dazzling and too abrupt, so much so that Shangguan Moyao, Qin Tian, and the others couldn't figure out what was happening.
As the golden light appeared, Wang Yan's previously weakened aura suddenly surged, leaping from the Warrior Tier, to Master Tier, all the way to the Initial-Tier Demon King.
Even after reaching Initial-Tier Demon King, the aura did not stop; waves of powerful energy fused into Wang Yan's body, pushing his cultivation forward swiftly until he broke through to Mid-Tier Demon King.
With his cultivation rising, Wang Yan steadied himself firmly on the ground, fists blocking the attacks of the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat.
Blinded by the golden light, the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat was shocked, flapping its wings chaotically and hovering in mid-air, attempting to retreat.
At this moment, Wang Yan shouted, "Don't leave, stay and fight three hundred rounds with me."
As he spoke, Wang Yan reached out with both hands and caught one of the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat's wings.
The Golden Crowned Vampire Bat couldn't escape at the moment. In desperation, it let out a long shriek, hurriedly swinging its other wing towards Wang Yan, trying to knock him away and free itself.
Originally holding onto the wing, Wang Yan released his right hand as the attack approached, then swung a punch towards the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat.
Wang Yan's right fist immediately clashed with the left wing of the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat.
With a "boom" sound, Wang Yan's body was pushed back, staggering seven or eight steps.
However, despite moving backward, Wang Yan's left hand still gripped the bat's right wing firmly.
As he retreated, Wang Yan pulled the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat along with him.
Upon realizing this, the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat understood that while Wang Yan's body was illuminated by a strange golden light, his cultivation was still inferior, so there was no need to fear.
Thinking this, the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat raised its left wing again, slamming towards Wang Yan, shouting, "Let go of me."
Facing the incoming wing, Wang Yan's excitement grew. He once more raised his right fist to meet it, shouting, "If you can defeat me, I will let go."
With a "boom," the fist and wing collided again.
This time, Wang Yan retreated more than a dozen steps, yet he still did not release his grip, dragging the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat with him once more.
The Golden Crowned Vampire Bat grew furious, slamming its left wing again towards Wang Yan, who raised his fist again, getting knocked back more than twenty steps this time.
Seeing Wang Yan retreat further and further, yet never loosening his grip, every place Wang Yan retreated, the bat was dragged along.
The Golden Crowned Vampire Bat was extremely enraged. As a member of the Dark Legion and a formidable entity under the Demon Emperor, being touched by a mere human was incredible.
In its fury, it raised its left wing, howling madly, raining blows upon Wang Yan.
Wang Yan, equally persistent, raised his fists to meet each attack, shouting loudly as he clashed with the wing.
The human and beast cried out wildly, their fists and wings crashing down with relentless fury.
In mere seconds, dozens of collisions erupted between fist and wing.
Witnessing this, Qin Tian and the others were dumbfounded. Such a clash was utter madness, a fight to the death.
Each collision sent thunderous booms echoing through the depths of the pit, rumbling like thunder itself.
This violent onslaught tore a gash from the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat, spilling blood.
Tormented with pain and rage, when it saw Wang Yan, the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat laughed wildly.
It saw blood constantly spurting from Wang Yan's mouth, his injuries worsening, fearing a few more blows might cause his collapse and death.
The Golden Crowned Vampire Bat could not help but laugh, "Hahaha, die now."
After saying that, the bat raised its left wing, channeling all its Power of Demon Patterns, striking at Wang Yan.
Wang Yan's aura weakened again, his injuries grave, yet at the sight of the bat's full-strength attack, a glint of joy flashed in his dim eyes.
He laughed out loud, "With one more strike, it should be enough."
Saying this, Wang Yan used the last of his Power of Demon Patterns, wielding his fist towards the bat's left wing once again.
The Golden Crowned Vampire Bat's eyes gleamed fiercely, intending to kill Wang Yan on the spot with this strike.
The wing smashed into Wang Yan's fist, but to the bat's surprise, Wang Yan did not spit blood this time; instead, the dim radiance on Wang Yan's body suddenly surged once more.
"Boom," the golden light behind Wang Yan shot up again, his cultivation soaring from Mid-Tier Demon King to High-Tier Demon King in an instant.
After breaking through, Wang Yan's aura returned to peak strength, and he could not help but laugh heartily, "Marvelous, marvelous, come, fight me again."
Realizing this, the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat finally understood that the more it attacked the human, the more he would break through.
In such a short time, he'd already ascended two tiers, and further breakthroughs might reach Demon Emperor levels.
Even a Demon King's power was terrifying; the thought of reaching Demon Emperor made the bat reluctant to consider the consequences.
Looking at Wang Yan, a flash of fear flickered deep in the bat's eyes, and it cried, "You're not human! You're more terrifying than the Dark Legion!"
At this point, the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat, as if seeing a demon, quickly retreated.
Yet it had forgotten that Wang Yan still held onto its right wing, thus it could not escape.
Seeing Wang Yan's grip tight on its right wing, the bat grit its teeth, eyes flashing with a vicious glint.
At once, it exerted force, pulling away sharply.
With a "tear," the bat ripped off half its wing.
With half a wing remaining, the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat quickly fluttered up into the air, gazing at Wang Yan from afar.
Although its right wing was bleeding profusely, it paid no mind, relieved to be far from Wang Yan.
Wang Yan looked at the severed half-wing in his hand and couldn't help but smirk coldly, remarking, "Impressive, truly decisive."
In the air, the Golden Crowned Vampire Bat hovered momentarily to regain composure, glancing at Wang Yan with intense fury.
However, it didn't renew its attack, speaking instead with eerie calmness, "Human, you wished to know the Dark Legion? I shall now enlighten you."
