Wu Piwu knew that he was not particularly clever.
Let alone comparing himself to someone like Chu Minghao, he was far inferior even to Xu Shilan.
However, Wu Piwu did adhere to certain principles, such as repaying kindness and avenging enmity.
One of these principles was that if the enemy wanted to do something, he would certainly oppose it.
This wild boar giant demon was incredibly strong; there was no doubt about that.
However, after battling it, Wu Piwu keenly discovered something: this wild boar giant demon was actually... timid!?
It appeared ferocious and violent, seemingly crude and despicable, yet Wu Piwu, in combat with it, sensed its inner fear and panic.
This was simply unbelievable!
As the saying goes, the higher the skill, the bolder the person; with strength comes courage.
This wild boar giant demon had over three hundred years of cultivation, and in this world, it was a tyrant that acted with impunity.
Yet it was actually afraid and panicking!?
With a physique ten times greater than Wu Piwu's, it was afraid of a mere mortal like him engaging in close combat?
Moreover, it was also afraid of approaching Bianliang City, fearing the sword light left behind by Chu Minghao!
So...
Victory was possible!
Wu Piwu let out a tiger's roar and lunged forward, colliding with the standing wild boar giant demon.
The tremendous force unleashed a howling wind that swept around, and the wild boar giant demon, which was three to four times Wu Piwu's size, staggered from the impact.
Wu Piwu's claws and palms began to strike wildly at its body.
Although the wild boar giant demon was naturally cautious, it was still a demon, having rampaged in the north for over a hundred years.
At this moment, it went berserk again, swinging its large blade wildly at Wu Piwu while its other hand flailed, its legs kicked and stomped, and its pig snout with tusks continuously charged and bit, forcing Wu Piwu to retreat and dodge.
However, even so, amidst the chaos, he was struck by the wild boar giant demon's elbow on his arm, instantly breaking the bone.
But this only pushed Wu Piwu back a little over three meters.
He firmly planted his feet on the ground, bracing against the overwhelming force, his legs nearly sinking half a meter into the earth.
Then, in the next moment, his internal qi surged explosively, propelled by the rebound force from the ground, he lunged back at the wild boar giant demon.
As he clawed and struck, he bit fiercely into the wild boar giant demon's waist, tearing away a large chunk of flesh and blood.
At the same time, the wild boar giant demon roared and charged forward, crashing into the camp's fence, shattering it to pieces while Wu Piwu was sent flying, spitting blood.
The wild boar giant demon gasped and roared, and Wu Piwu saw it spewing out a red-black aura.
Suddenly, it bit down on its tongue, spraying out a stream of essence blood.
This red-black aura became dense, falling to the ground in clumps, mixing with the soil to form several half-demons standing two and a half meters tall.
The wild boar giant demon continued to chant incantations, and the ground beneath it began to wrap around like flowing water, enveloping its body in a thick layer of soil, which then hardened into rock, causing its size to swell even more.
At this moment, Wu Piwu silently stood up from a distance.
He felt pain and itchiness all over; that last collision had broken several of his bones and left his skin torn, yet inexplicably, from his bones to his flesh, he felt an itch.
Looking down, he discovered that the flesh on his body was actually slowly writhing, gradually healing itself.
(Is this... my body's attributes have become so powerful that my self-healing ability is this strong? Or is it that the wild boar giant demon's flesh possesses strong self-healing properties?)
Wu Piwu licked his lips; he had indeed bitten into it, and some flesh had gone down his throat, but he hadn't expected the effect to be this good!?
At that moment, the ground suddenly trembled, and a sharp rock spike shot up from beneath him.
It came so suddenly that Wu Piwu barely had time to react, only managing to sidestep slightly, but the sharp spike still pierced his abdomen...
Bang.
Wu Piwu patted his belly, feeling a slight pain, while the rock, as hard as granite, shattered into pieces.
He was already five steps away from the wild boar giant demon, and all attacks were reduced by fifty percent due to comprehensive judgment, resulting in even his defenses being ineffective.
Wu Piwu simply stopped dodging, allowing the numerous sharp rock spikes that erupted from the ground to strike him, while he utilized his martial arts to control his body, channeling his qi and blood to his stomach to accelerate the digestion of the giant demon's flesh, then trembling his skin to employ the techniques of the Human Immortal Martial Path to heal himself.
Although the speed was certainly not comparable to using high-tech carbon-based nanounits for healing, and it couldn't match the wild boar giant demon's self-healing speed, this healing speed was still over a hundred times faster than usual.
At this time, the wild boar giant demon fully activated its innate demon technique, and the area outside Bianliang's north gate was filled with flying sand and stones, the ground cracking and rising, transforming into an uneven terrain, while countless rock spikes surged toward Wu Piwu.
However, Wu Piwu strolled leisurely among the rock spikes, and all attacks were shattered before they could reach him.
He did not immediately engage in close combat with the wild boar giant demon but instead quietly gathered qi and strength from a distance, waiting for his body to heal.
Seeing that this powerful technique, capable of devouring an army, could not harm Wu Piwu at all, the wild boar giant demon roared in anger, "What exactly are you!?"
At this moment, Wu Piwu chuckled and charged toward the wild boar giant demon again.
In that instant, a look of panic clearly appeared in the wild boar giant demon's eyes.
Immediately, rock spikes or giant rocks appeared beneath Wu Piwu's feet and around him, continuously stabbing and bombarding him.
But this could not stop Wu Piwu's advance; he didn't even dodge, simply allowing himself to take countless hits until he was about ten meters away from the wild boar giant demon.
Suddenly, he exploded forward, leaving all the rocks and spikes behind, and charged directly to the wild boar giant demon's front.
At the same time, the half-demons summoned by the wild boar giant demon also surrounded Wu Piwu.
The wild boar giant demon let out another roar, more rocks gathering around it, layer upon layer, causing its height to exceed five meters, its entire body wrapped in a granite sphere.
Its defense was so strong that even a siege hammer or catapult could not shake it in the slightest.
However... a mere mortal, attacks from five steps away were reduced by fifty percent, while within five steps...
Wu Piwu crashed directly into the blocking rock half-demon.
These seemingly indestructible granite half-demons and obsidian half-demons could not even hold him back for a second.
Wu Piwu charged straight to the wild boar giant demon's front, and as its large blade swung toward him, he had already plunged into the granite shell enveloping its body.
The granite shell, nearly two meters thick, became incredibly brittle the moment Wu Piwu touched it, shattering with a single touch.
Wu Piwu's entire body slammed into it, causing the granite shell to explode, and he unleashed a flurry of strikes on the wild boar giant demon's chest and abdomen.
The wild boar giant demon was sent tumbling, filled with shock, anger, fear, and pain.
At that moment, its wild nature erupted, and it reached out with one hand to strike at Wu Piwu, who was clinging to its chest, causing blood to spurt from Wu Piwu.
Finally, after a heavy blow, Wu Piwu was sent flying, and a large chunk of flesh was torn from the wild boar giant demon's chest.
As soon as Wu Piwu landed, he immediately began to ravenously consume the flesh in his mouth, and even that was not enough; he also devoured the wild boar's flesh that he had torn off with his claws.
From a distance, the wild boar giant demon stood up and saw this scene.
It felt a chill in its heart but then immediately burst into wild laughter, saying, "You dare to consume my flesh? I'm not dead yet! This flesh contains my Xuan Yin demon aura; you will definitely... will definitely... what exactly are you!?"
Dead demon flesh and living demon flesh were two different things.
The former was a great supplement for almost all living beings; the higher the cultivation, the better the nourishing effect, even comparable to heavenly treasures.
However, if a living demon were to split its flesh, that flesh would carry a significant pollution characteristic.
This was also the way for demons with over a hundred years of cultivation to give birth to offspring, but the resulting half-demons would become extremely violent, lose intelligence, and be utterly subservient to the great demon.
Yet now, in front of the wild boar giant demon, Wu Piwu was consuming its flesh, and nothing changed; there was no pollution, no mutation, and it was impossible for him to be subservient.
Moreover, right before the wild boar giant demon's eyes, Wu Piwu's injuries were actually beginning to heal slowly.
This speed was naturally not comparable to that of the wild boar giant demon, but what was the wild boar giant demon?
A great demon with over three hundred years of cultivation, its life essence had long since transcended the ordinary level, while Wu Piwu before it was undoubtedly just a mortal!
But what the hell kind of mortal was this!?
The wild boar giant demon's eyes flickered as it glanced at Bianliang City in the distance, its eyes filled with greed.
However, this greed was quickly replaced by a sense of worry and fear, and then it decisively turned around, backing away from Wu Piwu and fleeing toward the north, away from Bianliang.
Wu Piwu was stunned; he had never expected such a reaction.
But how could he let this wild boar giant demon escape now?
Heaven knows if it would return next time with ten, a hundred, or a thousand wild boar giant demons?
Or perhaps it would drop down threads from the sky, turning everything familiar into paper figures and monsters?
There was no way he would allow that!
To eradicate evil completely, Wu Piwu decided to learn from the protagonists he had read about in novels: if you dare to glare at me and hold a grudge, I will surely kill your entire family, leaving not even the chickens and dogs alive... uh, that seems a bit extreme.
But right now... the wild boar giant demon must die!
Wu Piwu didn't care that he hadn't fully healed; he gathered his qi and burst forth at full speed, chasing after the fleeing wild boar giant demon.
He struck down with all his might from its back, causing the wild boar giant demon's back to explode, creating a bloody hole.
However, the wild boar giant demon showed no signs of turning back, focused solely on running forward, even as Wu Piwu struck it multiple times from behind, it seemed to gain a slight increase in speed from the force of the blows.
Moreover, the wild boar giant demon, with its tough skin and coarse flesh, disregarded all obstacles ahead, simply charging through the camp.
Wu Piwu was furious; he leaped onto the wild boar giant demon's back, then jumped onto its head, ignoring its hands swatting and its head butting.
He plunged both hands into the wild boar giant demon's eyes, and as it howled in pain, its head slammed down toward the ground, sending Wu Piwu flying at least a hundred meters.
The wild boar giant demon collapsed amidst a cloud of dust.
At that moment, there was a chirping sound, and a small green bird was about to land on Wu Piwu's shoulder.
"Go back!"
Wu Piwu's expression changed drastically as he shouted to stop it.
In that rising dust, a massive creature, about nine to ten meters tall and eighteen to nineteen meters long, was standing up.
A gigantic pig demon, terrifying and covered in bone spines, with pitch-black eyes, was glaring at Wu Piwu through the dust.
