I Killed Gods and Demons in Song Dynasty

Chapter 268: Emerging and Subduing the Pig Demon
The moment Li Qingyun left the stone temple of the human tribe, the night wind blew in his face with the cool mountain mist.

He looked up at the sky, only to see the deep night and the dim stars, which seemed to be hiding countless darkness and murderous intentions.

The footsteps of several human guards were faintly heard behind him, interweaving with the chirping of insects and the sound of wind in the forest, like a strange prelude.

Several members of the Sixth Realm sent by Hanba followed from a distance. They were skeptical about Li Qingyun's strength. On the surface, they said they were there to assist, but secretly they were always on guard and observing.

These tribesmen are strong and have tense expressions.

Obviously, they have experienced too much baptism of blood and fire, and dare not relax towards any outsiders.

In the night, the torches shone brightly, illuminating the seriousness and uneasiness on their faces.

Li Qingyun led the way in front, but he was as calm as if he was strolling in the garden, and seemed to be oblivious to the crisis that was about to come.

"Humph, even though this person is a demigod, can he really defeat the Pig Demon Clan? The Pig Demon Chieftain plus the two guardians, there are a total of three demigods."

A tribesman holding a halberd couldn't help but mutter in a low voice, his tone full of doubt.

Another old soldier with gray hair beside him shook his head with a complicated expression:
"Since Lord Hanba has asked us to accompany him, he wants us to see what this man is capable of. No matter what the result is, we have to see it with our own eyes."

The few of them said nothing more and looked behind Li Qingyun cautiously.

But Li Qingyun just glanced at them calmly without saying a word. He continued to walk out of the mountain without stopping.

That night, the moon was dim and the stars were hidden, and the mountain road was winding.

The wilderness was vast, and even though everyone walked very fast, they still had to walk until dawn before they could get down the last steep slope.

Looking up, I saw clouds rolling in front of me, and suddenly the sky became clear, revealing a basin in the morning light.

When the sun first rose, a thin layer of mist shrouded the fields, as if covering everything with a hazy gauze.

After walking a few more miles, a faint fishy smell accompanied by a strange aura suddenly hit us, making people shudder.

"This is the territory of the Pig Demon Clan."

The old soldier whispered. His eyes flashed with undisguised nervousness, but he forced himself to stand straight.

Li Qingyun stood still, his spiritual thoughts spreading between heaven and earth like a spider web.

His eyelids drooped, as if he was resting.

Several tribesmen behind him held their breath and waited, not daring to disturb them.

Suddenly, Li Qingyun raised his hand slightly, and a faint golden light flashed in his palm. At the same time, the earth seemed to tremble slightly, and a whistling sound colder than the mountain wind came from the sky.

Before the human race members could come to their senses, they saw the clouds rolling in the sky and a huge shadow suddenly appeared.

The shadow was like a mountain range hundreds of feet high, moving in the air, emitting a dark golden glow. When the clouds and mist dispersed slightly, everyone felt their blood tremble -

It turned out to be a real dragon, a hundred feet long, with scales on its body that looked like they were cast in gold!

It spread its huge wings, hovered low in the sky, its eyes like torches, overlooking all living things. The pressure was so strong that the earth and trees were shaking slightly.

"That... is that the real dragon in the legend?"

The tribesman holding the long spear had a trembling voice and a look of horror.

He had never imagined that this alien human demigod could actually command a real dragon!

The dragon race is naturally powerful. Compared with the weak humans, even though they are both demigods, their combat effectiveness is incomparable. They represent the top combat power of the seventh realm.

If Asia God doesn't appear, he is almost invincible.

Li Qingyun saw everyone's reactions, but did not comment, just waved his hand lightly.

The real dragon landed quietly, its body twisting, its huge claws sinking into the ground, raising a large amount of dust.

Every breath it takes seems to stir up a strong wind, and the air is filled with a fierce aura from ancient times.

The legs of several timid tribesmen went weak and they almost fell to the ground.

"This is the war puppet I subdued."

Li Qingyun's voice was calm, yet inexplicably frightening.

"You go take the lead!"

When the real dragon heard the sound, a gleam flashed in its eyes, as if it understood the master's order, and let out a low dragon roar, like rolling thunder.

It raised its huge dragon head, and its scales gleamed in the sunlight.

The tribesmen who followed looked at each other in astonishment, thinking:
"So Lord Hanba actually sent us to supervise this being? Who could have expected that he could actually control a real dragon!"

In addition to being shocked, they couldn't help but feel awe. At the same time, their hidden vigilance weakened a little the moment the real dragon appeared.

After all, this level of combat power was beyond their imagination. If Li Qingyun could really help the human race get rid of the pig monster, they might be happy to see it happen.

Li Qingyun put his hands behind his back and walked towards the interior of the basin. The real dragon followed behind him, making a faint low roar, as if it was a warm-up for the prehistoric beast before returning to its homeland.

Those human followers could only suppress their inner fear and follow closely.

The closer you get to the center of the basin, the darker the surrounding scenery becomes.

The originally sparse morning light was covered by dark clouds at some point, and the sky became dim. From time to time, a cold wind blew by, bringing with it strange gasping sounds, as if some kind of existence was spying in the dark.

Among the trees, you may catch a glimpse of some monsters that look like wild boars moving around and making low roars.

They have dark red manes all over their bodies and fangs as sharp as knives. Although they have not yet appeared, they already exude a strong bloody smell.

"Most pig demons are as strong as bears, with sharp fangs, and they come in large numbers. This lineage of pig demons has fought with us many times, and we are very familiar with each other. They have three demigod masters."

The old soldier whispered, "Be careful!"

Li Qingyun did not comment, and just raised his hand casually, and suddenly countless divine lights flashed in the air.

Looking closely, they were puppet war spirits summoned from the Buzhou Divine Mountain in his body. They were in different shapes and all exuded different auras of power: some were covered in black armor, looking down at the earth like ferocious beasts; some were covered in divine wings, like divine birds flapping their wings. When they descended on the earth together, it seemed as if they were carrying countless primeval fighting spirits, causing the air to suddenly freeze.

"This...what is this?"

Several tribesmen were shocked, their eyes unable to hide their amazement. "Can this person summon so many powerful war spirits at will?!"

Li Qingyun smiled faintly:
"It's okay, just some helping hands."

As soon as he finished speaking, the real dragon roared for the second time.

At the same time, the pig demon that had been hiding in the woods could no longer hold back and began to rush out frantically.

thump -- thump -- thump --

The ground was shaking continuously, accompanied by shrill howls, and hundreds of pig monsters with fangs bared came rushing towards them.

Their eyes were bloodshot and restless, and their skin was covered with hideous dark lines, as if some evil blood was flowing in their bodies. Dozens of pig goblins were as strong as mountains, waving their strange weapons in their hands, forming an ugly but violent formation.

Their leader seemed to have issued some kind of order, and the monsters immediately roared like crazy and pounced towards Li Qingyun and the human race.

"kill!"

The old soldier couldn't help shouting and gripping his weapon tightly. He was full of fighting spirit but couldn't hide his nervousness.

Li Qingyun's eyes flashed with coldness, and he shouted:

"kill!"

As soon as the word came out, the real dragon took the lead and pounced, crashing into the group of pig monsters with a tremendous force.

There was a loud bang, blood and flesh splattered everywhere, and several pig monsters that were unable to dodge were hit and their skin was torn to pieces on the spot. It was a horrible sight.

Immediately afterwards, Li Qingyun waved his hand and gently stroked the hilt of the knife at his waist. A cold blade light tore through the air. Wherever it passed, several pig monsters that tried to get close were instantly cut into two pieces, and a fishy smell was pungent.

At the same time, the war spirits from Buzhou Mountain also attacked: some used dark claws to tear the pig monsters apart; some flashed their wings and fell from the sky, bombarding the monsters with ferocious thunder. In an instant, this forest was plunged into a tragic massacre.

Those human warriors who were secretly watching the battle were all horrified when they saw this.

This demigod was indeed terrifying. He had already defeated the pig demon before his opponent could even form a formal formation.

Not only is his own sword skills unmatched, but the war spirits under his command also possess astonishing power, as if they represent the power of ancient times.

Soon, hundreds of pig demon corpses lay on the ground, blood flowed like a river, and screams rang out one after another.

The air was filled with a sickening smell of blood, mixed with the dust from the earth, as if one were in a nightmare.

Some pig monsters tried to escape, but the real dragon let out a long roar, and its tail whipped up a strong wind that swept them all back into the battle group, making it impossible for them to escape.

Suddenly, a loud horn sounded from the depths of the basin, and then three powerful demonic auras rose from behind the forested hills.

Li Qingyun's eyes were slightly stern, knowing that it was the demigod of the pig demon clan.

He no longer held back, and urged the True Dragon and many war spirits to encircle and suppress the enemy separately. He then lightly stepped on the ground, and soared into the air like a meteor. The purple-gold sword stirred up a terrifying sword aura, and slashed towards the place where the three auras were from afar.

Before the knife light arrived, the trees had been razed down layer by layer, and the soil had cracked and rolled like waves.

Three powerful pig demons of different shapes suddenly appeared: one was wearing black and gold armor, with fangs protruding outward; one had bone wings on its back and red blood flowing all over its body; the last one was covered with dark green poisonous miasma, symbolizing an evil curse. They had all broken through the realm of demigods, and when they saw the corpses of their own people scattered all over the ground, they were all furious and roared in unison.

"Human Race!"

The pig demon chieftain in black and gold armor roared, his voice like thunder shaking the mountains:
"My race has no deep hatred with your race, why do you come here to slaughter people?"

Li Qingyun sneered and replied loudly:

"If there is no deep hatred, then why have you been harassing the human race for years and eating the flesh and blood of our people? In the final analysis, there is no mercy in this primitive world. The strong have to protect themselves and can only wield their swords against the weak. And you... just met a stronger one today."

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his sword again, and the sword was as fast as lightning, hitting the ferocious black gold pig monster in the chest.

Although the opponent tried his best to raise the black battle axe to block, he was still chopped down with blood splattered everywhere, and he retreated more than ten feet with a roar.

Upon seeing this, the other two demigod pig monsters quickly joined in the attack.

The one with bony wings on its back soared into the air, spewing fiery red venom, attempting to cover Li Qingyun with billowing flames; while the one covered in poisonous miasma gathered the dark green poisonous gas into a strange giant snake, flying close to the ground, trying to entangle Li Qingyun.

But Li Qingyun's figure flashed and he had already flown into the air. He used both hands to activate the sword light. With a loud "bang", the flame venom of the bone-winged pig monster was instantly torn apart by the domineering sword force. Half of the body was pierced by the sword energy on the spot, and it fell into the forest with a scream.

"He... is so strong..."

The human warriors watching the battle from a distance were already dumbfounded. Even the guard holding the halberd who was originally dissatisfied with Li Qingyun could not say a word. Such a mighty force was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Seeing the tragic death of its companion, the poisonous pig demon went crazy and tried its best to spray out large amounts of dark green miasma. Even the grass and trees on the ground instantly rotted and turned into pus. It rushed towards Li Qingyun with dirty blood and shrill howls.

But Li Qingyun just snorted coldly, circulated his true energy under his feet, and a dazzling golden light rose around him. He used the power of the sacred mountain in his body to transform it into a looming illusory giant peak, blocking all the miasma out.

Then he raised his hand and pointed lightly, and a golden aura shot out, like an arrow piercing the clouds, accurately piercing the pig demon's skull, and blood spurted out with a foul smell of poison. The pig demon fell to the ground without even a wail, and fell into a pool of blood and stopped moving.

At this point, of the three great pig demon demigods, only the chief in black and gold armor is still struggling to hold on.

It covered the hideous knife scar on its chest with a look of despair.

"Spare...spare my life..."

It begged for mercy in a low voice, but with hatred and unwillingness.

But Li Qingyun's eyes were indifferent, and he swung his sword again to chop the pig demon chieftain as if he was looking at an ant. The pig demon chief wanted to raise his axe to resist again, but there was only a crisp "bang" sound, and the axe was cut off at the root, and the armor also cracked.

Finally, only the light of a sword split the air, and the black and gold armor and the fanged head flew up, and the bright red blood spilled like a fountain.

After a few breaths, only the rumbling sound remained on the battlefield.

The pig demon clan lost its leader and three demigod pillars and suddenly became leaderless.

The hundred-foot-long real dragon roared once more and led many war spirits to attack fiercely. In just half an incense stick of time, more than half of the pig monsters were killed or injured, and the rest were terrified and knelt on the ground wailing for mercy.

At this time, the human warriors came to their senses, looked at each other, and then cheered in unison.

The humans who had previously given up hope in Li Qingyun now prostrated themselves on the ground, calling out "God's might", each of them grateful with tears in their eyes - after all, they had a deep grudge against the pig monsters, and their people had been captured and killed countless times. Now that they saw Li Qingyun completely eradicate this scourge, how could they not be excited?
The bloody smell on the battlefield gradually dissipated. The real dragon restrained its ferocity, curled up on one side, and watched indifferently as the remaining pig monsters trembled.

The few tribesmen who followed were so excited that they could hardly control themselves.

The way they looked at Li Qingyun was completely different. It was a mixture of awe and genuine admiration.

"Thank you...thank you for your help!"

The old soldier, holding an iron sword, stepped over the broken corpses and pools of blood on the ground, and walked forward to salute Li Qingyun.

His voice was trembling, but he was grateful from the bottom of his heart, "After this battle, the pig demon clan has completely surrendered, and my human race no longer has to worry about anything."

Li Qingyun slowly put away his knife, glanced at the group of kneeling pig monsters, then looked at the terrified humans in the distance, and said calmly:

"Take the remaining pig demon leaders with you and report back to Hanba."

"Yes!"

Several tribesmen nodded hastily. There was no longer any doubt in their eyes when they looked at Li Qingyun, only respect and amazement.

A gentle breeze blew by, and the bloody morning light once again sprinkled on the dilapidated woodland.

The corpse of the pig demon lay everywhere, the flowing blood dyed the ground red, and an indescribable smell of corruption was faintly emitted, but Li Qingyun never even glanced at it. He just stood in the wind, his clothes slightly mottled by blood and dust, which made him look more solemn and majestic.

Such a massive battle ended with the pig demon tribe being razed to the ground and the three demigods being killed.

It was also from this moment that the human tribe's suspicion and vigilance towards Li Qingyun finally turned into admiration and reliance...
