Chapter 800 301: Hiding One's Strength, the Proper Use of a Demon King
He quickly dialed another number.
"Hello, Gauss, I have a question for you."
"Huh? What? Go ahead." Gauss was still having a good time, and upon hearing Wen Yan's call, he immediately found a quieter place.
"I have a demon here that can absorb moonlight, and I want to seal it. Now I need to block the moonlight in this area. Do you have any solutions?"
"Use magic, summon some clouds, isn't that easy?"
"I don't know this kind of magic, it's urgent, can you come?"
"Oh, where are you?"
"I'm in Guanzhong County. I'll have a friend pick you up, and you wait at Old Zhao's house entrance. Consider it a mission, there's a bonus!"
"Alright!"
Wen Yan asked Feng Wei to pick up Gauss, while he watched the Heavenly Hound absorbing moonlight in mid-air.
The Heavenly Hound's physical form was destroyed, now only the soul remained, still absorbing moonlight.
Fourth Great-uncle Master said that in this state, except for a handful of targeted powers, it's very difficult to capture the Heavenly Hound under the moonlight.
But Wen Yan wasn't too anxious, because he had a different idea.
He believed that the temporary ability, which was singular, must have a reason.
This was the solution that best matched his idea.
After waiting for nearly twenty minutes, Feng Wei brought Gauss over.
Gauss was wearing a floral shirt over a formal vest and gold-rimmed glasses, looking particularly like those TV professionals who are highly skilled but not very serious privately.
Gauss glanced at the Heavenly Hound in mid-air and exclaimed.
"This cat looks uglier than a Sparrow Cat."
"It's not a cat, it's actually a dog," Wen Yan replied and pondered: "Can you see its true form?"
"Yes, it looks quite ugly, but the ability is strange indeed, absorbing the moon's power. I recently read that moonlight is just reflected sunlight, right? So why doesn't it just absorb the sun's power?"
"Obviously it can't. Can you block the moonlight in this area?"
"I can... yes..."
"Then hurry, finish it quickly, and you can return for a drink."
Gauss hesitated.
"But, I heard Guanzhong County is quite dangerous, too ancient here, I'm afraid people might think I'm provoking."
"Just do it, I'll handle the rest."
"Alright."
Upon hearing Wen Yan's words, Gauss seemed eager to try.
"I'm a Demon King."
Gauss laughed heartily, as he reached out to do something, feeling something was missing.
He casually snapped off one of his own fingers, extracting the bone inside, letting it transform into the appearance of an old magic wand, then holding the wand in one hand, his body floated into the air.
With the useless, purely decorative wand in one hand, he floated in mid-air, slightly closing his eyes, and recited obscure and awkward curse scriptures.
Suddenly, billowing demonic qi appeared in the sky, as if some Demon King was recklessly releasing his power.
The appearance of demonic qi caused the water vapor from the Qinling Mountains to transform into black clouds, floating in the air.
The clouds grew thicker, not only covering the surroundings but even forming black clouds, blocking out the sky and sun.
As the amount of demonic qi increased, the fog and clouds completely shrouded this large area, making it difficult for even the fog lamps to penetrate.
In many places, it had already become pitch black.
Gauss waved the magic wand, exceedingly delighted; he'd recently come across a saying that using power correctly makes it right, while use for evil makes it evil.
A true strong person would not let their power restrict them but would decide what the power should be.
Therefore, he pondered what to do.
It wasn't for any notions of justice, he purely wanted to see how to achieve this.
The simplest method was to use the power of the Demon King to do something good he hadn't done before, to be a partner of justice.
Today, there was finally such an opportunity.
Recklessly spreading demonic qi, according to past experience, this declared power, intimidating other devils, or provoking opponents of the same rank.
Besides this, he truly couldn't deduce any other purpose for this otherwise useless method.
Unexpectedly, today he discovered something new.
Wen Yan watched the billowing black fog, blocking the sky and sun, obscuring this area, seemingly like the emergence of a Great Demon.
Finding Gauss for this task was genuinely the right choice.
There's no one more suited for this than Gauss.
Wen Yan himself truly couldn't handle it...
The moonlight-absorbing Heavenly Hound lost the illumination of the moon, leaving only a glowing outline.
Greatly shocked, it realized there was even a demon here, a Great Demon.
And such a Great Demon was actually one of the other party's people.
The Heavenly Hound had been rampant, thinking the other side couldn't manage in this state, even connected with the Bright Moon itself.
But now, it wanted to flee.
The next moment, Wen Yan, propelled by some force, rushed into the sky, raising the Chunjun Mace, a Great Sun suddenly emerged in his hand.
The Great Sun's light immediately suppressed the moonlight on the Heavenly Hound.
The brightest light struck straight down on the Heavenly Hound's forehead.
Although it had no physical force, as if a Great Sun fell, it pressed the Heavenly Hound's glowing outline from the sky to the ground.
The Heavenly Hound let out a wail, its soul beginning to damage.
At that instant, Wen Yan's other hand directly touched the halo outline.
Wen Yan saw the Essence of the Bright Moon contained within the Heavenly Hound, its power gradually changing under his influence.
Unfortunately, this power was already fused with the Heavenly Hound, couldn't be forcibly pulled out, nor cut out.
Wen Yan reached out, touching the halo, his voice echoed in the Heavenly Hound's mind.
"If you want to fully recover, to completely liberate, you'll have to do it this way."
The Heavenly Hound's consciousness slightly paused, it felt as if it went through many things.
What it was experiencing now felt like it had gone through countless times.
All endings were death, turning to ash.
The only way to survive was a method it "found" itself.
It had to voluntarily separate the Essence of the Bright Moon from its soul.
