Chapter 368 The King of Slaying Generals

Back then, the human race traveled thousands of miles, crossing the northern city walls to travel to the snowy region, intending to make peace with the demon race.

In an attempt to stop this event and forge an alliance with the barbarians, the war faction within the tribe, led by the chieftains of the Scaled and Fang tribes, launched a nighttime attack on the delegation.

The attack had a very high chance of success, considering the timing, location, and the strength of the demon generals. Who would have thought it would end in failure?

The reason for this is the human named Ji You in front of him.

It is said that it was because he had anticipated the attack and made preparations in advance that the human delegation was able to delay until His Majesty made a decision.

What's most surprising is that even the most skilled assassin, the demon general Shuhe, died at his hands.

Shuhe's strength ranking among the demon generals is not high, but his elusive talent makes him a headache for even the celestial demons.

At that time, Ji You's strength was only at the level of a spirit demon, not even reaching the level of a black demon, yet he killed Shu He all by himself. After the news spread, several people in the clan found it unbelievable and thought that the human race was deliberately exaggerating to show off their strength.

However, Asakura and Yotaku, who personally participated in that battle, knew that the demon general Shuhe was indeed killed by him alone.

Although they didn't know exactly how that human named Ji You had managed to do it.

But that incident happened a long time ago, so much so that Asakura and Yotaku had forgotten about this person. They never expected to encounter him here again today.

After more than three years apart, he nearly killed a barbarian warrior king with his bare hands.

This was something that even the elite soldier named Dawa found unbelievable. The last time they met, he was under the protection of others when the elite soldier shot at him with arrows. He fell unconscious after taking a knife from the elite soldier. But now he had injured an elite soldier with a single punch.

In fact, it wasn't just the barbarians and demons who were confused; the members of the aristocratic families were as well.

They still didn't understand why Ji You's combat strength was so high, and most importantly, his aura had become even stronger in just half a year.

"They're all old acquaintances..."

Ji You looked at Dawa, then at Asakura, then at Yetuo, feeling a pang of emotion.

The only regret is that I didn't get to see the king of soldiers who once slashed me so badly that I was seriously injured.

He gripped the immortal spirit in his hand, feeling the battle intent surging from all directions, and his entire body began to roar with sword energy.

Although they were old acquaintances, their relationship was not friendly. He knew there was no room for catching up between them, and that the next moment might be a greeting filled with murderous intent.

Sure enough, with a piercing roar, the barbarian king moved.

He suddenly flung off his cloak, his muscles bulging and knotting, his blood surging like dragons and snakes, and his immense power gathered in one punch. In an instant, he shattered the hillside and rose up, his majestic body pouncing down like a colossal beast!
Venturing deep into the Central Plains to seize treasures is risky, after all, this is human territory.

But having taken such a big risk, they couldn't possibly leave empty-handed.

In an instant, a terrifying pressure suddenly filled the valley, causing the cliffs along the banks to crack and fly, sending dust billowing into the sky.

Its muscles were taut and bulging, its thick veins bulging outwards, gathering a powerful force that roared through the air.

Seeing the killing intent approaching, Ji You instantly flipped his wrist and raised it, the green blade trembling as it emitted a deep sword cry.

The people in the valley snapped back to their senses and immediately felt a weight on their shoulders.

Even those with lower cultivation levels were knocked to the ground with a "thud," their expressions changing drastically.

"boom!!!!"

The Dao Sword Lesser Heavy Mountain crashed down, colliding fiercely with the King of Soldiers' Iron Fist.

The powerful energy surged forth like a rushing river, unleashing a fierce hurricane that snapped ancient trees and caused high cliffs to collapse.

The initial clash was completed in an instant; the compressed air exploded in a flash, spreading out in a ring and emitting a piercing buzz as it rushed out of the forest.

As the oppressive force of the initiation descended, the members of the aristocratic families in the valley immediately clenched their fists and opened their eyes in horror.

Only then did they realize that the two punches that had nearly killed You Fusheng were not his top-level combat power at all.

It was only at this moment that Wang Zhiwei's true terror was revealed.

But Ji You at this moment was by no means weak.

The size difference between the two was quite obvious, but after a fight, Ji You was more like a ferocious beast.

With a single punch, Danba slammed his large, dark feet into the ground, his iron armor clanging violently. At the same time, his thick arms created ripples in the air as his iron fist struck down again, colliding fiercely with the Dao sword that was as bright as the moon yet as heavy as a mountain.

In the blink of an eye, a deep crack appeared on the surface of the valley, stretching for several miles.

Ji You's white robes fluttered, and the Dao sword in his hand shone brightly.

The power emanating from the physical body, combined with the inherent energy of Xiao Chongshan, caused each sword strike to make the void rumble.

Everyone around, humans, demons, and even barbarians, showed a hint of astonishment.

Because they discovered that in these encounters, it was Ji You's swordsmanship that suppressed Wang Danba's iron fist.

“Kuchi Kang…”

“Kuchi Kang…”

"Kuchi Yasushi!!!"

Danba roared in horror as he raised his fist, and suddenly realized why Xingchuan Shisi couldn't even withstand his punch.

That power was something that humans simply couldn't unleash.

Ji You also stared intently, his iron sword trembling violently.

Aside from his trip to the snowy region, this was the first time he had encountered a true opponent who could fight him with their own flesh and blood.

Sword light whistled and coalesced, like the dawn's light piercing the darkness. Ji You, sword in hand, leaped forward and pressed down, unleashing a terrifying circular slash that pinned Wang Danba's leg down. His furious roar echoed through the night sky.

"Be careful!!"

Just then, the disciples in charge of the Heavenly Academy on the outskirts of the mountains and forests let out a series of urgent shouts.

Amidst the churning air currents, Asakura, who was originally on the west side of the hill, leaped into the air. A flash of cold light appeared first, followed by a spear thrust out like a dragon.

They are allies with the barbarians, at least on the surface, so they will naturally lend a helping hand now. As for the matter of the immortal spirit, they certainly don't intend to leave empty-handed.

Amidst the violent tremors, the iron spear continued to pierce the night, creating a barrier of air as it aimed directly at Ji You, who was attacking General Danba.

At the same time, his demonic transformation was completed the instant he made his move, and his even more powerful body infused the iron spear in his hand with an even stronger killing intent.

The distance between them was too short, and Asakura's iron spear was too fast. With the barbarian king holding him back, Ji You had almost no way to dodge.

But at that moment, a hand reached out from the raging air currents and clenched in the air.

An iron sword whistled through the air and slashed down towards Asakura, causing the demon general's vertical pupils to shrink to a slit.

With a clang, the extremely fast sword suddenly slashed, directly striking the iron spear in the hand of the demon Chao Cang, causing it to tremble violently. The flying body was instantly knocked back three steps, and the demon was immediately on high alert.

He had timed his shot perfectly, but no one expected him to react so quickly.

Just then, amidst the flying sand and stones, a burst of scorching heat exploded, and Ji You was suddenly freed from the center of the attack, falling onto the cliff with a bang like a meteorite.

Once the sandstorm had cleared its cover, everyone could see that several spirit swords were floating around him, swirling and vibrating wildly under the influence of the sword energy.

really.

Those members of the powerful families located in the valley couldn't help but whisper to themselves, "I had expected this to happen."

As for the soldier king Dawa, who was holding the Xuan Bow, his mind was filled with images of forty-nine sharp swords flying like stars from the sky aboard a human chariot speeding through the dark wilderness.

However, in an instant, everyone's attention was drawn back to the raging sandstorm.

Because they discovered that even after Ji You distanced himself, the atmosphere in the sandstorm remained intensely hot.

Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump—

Like the sound of drums, a rhythmic muffled sound emanated from the sandstorm.

As the sandstorm quickly dissipated, Wang Danba was revealed, panting heavily, but his appearance was quite different from before.

His body suddenly grew three feet taller, becoming unusually large. His teeth, which had been exposed near his lips, now protruded from his chin. Bone spurs grew on his shoulders and arms, and his blood and qi were almost boiling.

The sound, like the beating of a drum, came from the strong heartbeat within his body.

"General Danba has become barbaric..."

Seeing this, everyone's eyes trembled, and they couldn't help but look at Ji You, whose sword energy was whistling, once again.

The barbarian soldiers and generals present, in particular, all showed a look of astonishment in their eyes.

From the moment General Wang Danba made his move to the moment Demon General Chaocang joined the battle, Ji You only used twelve, thirteen, fourteen, or fifteen swords.

The reason why it is impossible to determine precisely is that two of the sword strikes were exceptionally fast, making it difficult to distinguish whether they were actually a single sword strike.

Even with fifteen sword strikes, this result is still astonishing.

Because Ji You only used fifteen swords to suppress the barbarian king and force him to become barbarian himself, such a being was something the barbarians had never seen before.

In the valley, the young masters of the major families of Zhongzhou were also staring intently at the figure holding the sword, their eyes slightly dazed.

Because of the barrier of the northern city walls, the human race rarely pays attention to the barbarian and demon races, and many people have not even subconsciously cared about the existence of these two races.

Later, because the barbarians attacked the northern border, the demon race hoped to establish trade, and thus gradually gained some attention.

But in their eyes, both barbarians and demons were like savages, stupid and old-fashioned. They were all races with undeveloped intelligence, and they had an innate contempt for them.

It wasn't until the northern border was breached and the two states of Youyun were occupied that Heaven gave the three races an opportunity to coexist on the same stage, allowing them to truly come into contact with the demon race and the barbarian race today.

However, it was during this encounter that their Dao hearts were nearly crushed by the overwhelming power of the barbarian and demon races.

Because the clan elders were killed, the patriarch was on the verge of death, and the immortal spirit was taken away, they were not only helpless, but were also filled with fear after being beaten.

To everyone's surprise, Ji You's arrival instantly turned the tide and put the entire situation under control.

On the outskirts of the dense forest, Qiu Hanyue stared intently for a moment, then fell into deep silence.

These women were not required to participate in the power struggles between aristocratic families, but since such a major event had occurred here and their family members had not returned for a long time, they naturally had to come and check on things.

Unexpectedly, they saw once again a figure that evoked complex and indescribable feelings in them, yet was etched into their minds.

Thinking back to when she secretly sought someone to annul the engagement in the Sage's Garden, Qiu Hanyue always thought that she would have no further connection with him. After all, she had never heard of Ji You before, and if it weren't for the marriage arranged by the He family, she probably would never have known him in her entire life. After rejecting the marriage proposal she resisted, she naturally went her own way.

But she never imagined that in the years that followed, her world would be filled with news of him, because the entire Qingyun was filled with news of him.

Tearing open the Heavenly Dao Sacrifice, slaying the previous Holy Son of the Xuan Yuan Immortal Mansion...

Qiu Ju lived in Shiguang County, which was relatively close to the county government, and he usually associated with the prefectural government more often.

Some time ago, when she was chatting with the people of the prefectural government, she heard that because of Ji You, the law of the Great Xia had been amended to include the phrase "private repairs in the countryside," and it was now explicitly prohibited from being used indiscriminately.

"The situation is critical."

Despite their amazement, many humans began to look more serious.

Ji You might have a chance to win against the barbarian general named Danba, but with the addition of the Heavenly Demon General Chaocang, the situation is already fraught with danger, not to mention that both of them are now using their racial talents of incarnation.

Thoughts are much faster than words, so even the most complex emotions are only fleeting.

The sandstorm had just subsided, but Asakura's iron spear was still trembling and booming, the sound rising into the sky once more.

After being transformed into a savage, Danba displayed an even more terrifying aura. His powerful iron fists rained down like a sudden downpour, cascading down with his leaping figure. At the same time, Asakura's iron spear also crashed down with a burst of air.

Ji You was instantly caught in a pincer attack from both sides. He suddenly slashed out with his sword, then turned sideways and grabbed another sword to slash at Asakura.

With a clang, sparks flew as the iron spear and the Dao sword slashed out with a deafening roar that echoed in all directions.

But at that moment, Danba's iron fist calmed the storm between the collisions and slammed into Ji You's shoulder. The powerful force sent him flying.

"boom!!!"

Amidst the deafening crash of the shattered cliff, Ji You fell to the ground, only to be met by the blazing iron fist and the gleaming iron spear that struck again, causing him to rise from the ground once more.

The sword energy filled the sky and wove together into a huge net. Several small mountains poured out like moonlight, cutting out a huge wave of energy.

However, the savage and demonized Danba and Asakura showed no fear. They unleashed a devastating storm, using their full strength to withstand the mountain-like force, and then tore it apart with a furious roar.

Then the iron fist pressed down horizontally, and the iron spear also came flying in.

Ji You kept drawing his sword, and as the sword energy around him roared, he gradually fell into a passive defensive posture.

In fact, Ji You had drawn his sword countless times along the way, but he had rarely paid attention to defense. The reason was that his physical body was strong enough that ordinary methods could not hurt his vital points.

But at this moment, he clearly knew that both of these people in front of him were capable of inflicting serious damage on him.

With a muffled boom, Ji You slashed back the barbarian king, who was so imposing that he seemed to have the power to conquer mountains and rivers, but the iron spear that came flying through the wind in front of him burst out with a strong killing light and pierced straight into his chest.

"puff!!!!"

Blood spurted wildly as Ji You flipped over and smashed the cliff face.

In an instant, blood blossomed on his chest and spread rapidly at a visible speed.

But Danba and Asakura gave him no chance to adjust his breathing, and once again shattered the cliff and attacked fiercely.

Seeing the three figures clashing repeatedly, their killing intent like a tsunami, the members of the aristocratic families in the valley narrowed their eyes slightly.

They could see that Ji You was in bad shape, while the attacks of the general and the demon were becoming increasingly fierce, almost deadly with every move.

This is not surprising, because Zhongzhou is human territory, and they know that the longer they stay here, the more likely they are to attract the help of the immortal sects. They must succeed as soon as possible and then retreat.

Under this fierce and rapid attack, Ji You clearly could not hold out for long, because everyone could see that he could only defend and had no chance to counterattack.

But only He Ye and Zuoqiu Jingyun remained silent, keeping a close eye on the arena and waiting patiently.

During the battle at the human altar in Rihua County, they were also on the city wall and witnessed Ji You tear open the Heavenly Dao Sacrifice and break in.

However, because of the obstruction of divine sense by the evil energy, they never knew how Ji You managed to kill Chu He under such strong restrictions, but they knew that Ji You's methods were definitely not limited to this.

Even though Ji You was caught in a pincer attack and facing constant crises, they still felt that Ji You still had the strength to spare.

As I was pondering, a loud bang was heard.

Ji You was cleaved down by a spear, his sword trembling violently, before he was fiercely attacked by the barbaric general.

“Pay your respects, Kuchikatsu.”

Danba unleashed a torrent of killing intent, his blood surging, and slammed it fiercely into Ji You's forehead.

But Ji You wouldn't give him a chance. He suddenly threw a punch to meet the attack and used the force to fly back, retreating south along the collapsed valley.

His speed was extremely fast, and his powerful body created ripples in the air, but he failed to break out of the valley before Asakura, who was waiting there in advance, blocked his way with an iron spear.

Upon witnessing this scene, countless humans felt a chill in their hearts, knowing that their lives were in danger.

Otherwise, given Ji You's personality, he would never have subconsciously tried to escape.

But some people, amidst their complex emotions, also harbor a glimmer of expectation.

Because Ji You has never been a fellow traveler with these human cultivators, and in fact, they have been deeply opposed to each other for many years, many people would think that it would be a good thing if Ji You died.

However, if Ji You dies here, the immortal spirit will most likely fall into the hands of the barbarians or demons.

At that moment, amidst the surging air currents, Danba and Asakura charged forward.

Their vital energy had been pushed to its peak, and their full aura was so powerful that no one dared to look directly at them. At the same time, their positions were perfectly coordinated, using the same front and back formation that had worked last time, cutting off all of Ji You's escape routes.

However, Ji You's back is still a possible escape route. Even if he cannot escape successfully, he may still find a way to survive.

Surprisingly, instead of turning and fleeing, he stood on the hilltop.

wow-

With a wave of his sleeve, countless spirit swords were released from his storage gourd, filling the sky and hanging in the air.

Everyone frowned upon seeing this, a hint of confusion showing in their eyes.

Ji You's sword control technique demonstrated its powerful combat strength when clearing out the zombie horde, showing its might to countless people. However, this move was clearly a large-scale attack against the enemy group.

However, if there are only two enemies, and their strength is comparable, increasing the number of spirit swords will not increase the chances of winning by much, and may even deplete the spirit energy very quickly.

However, the next moment, as Ji You took to the air, everyone couldn't help but stare in disbelief.

The fifty-odd spirit swords seemed to be plated with a layer of brilliant gold, and then they shifted continuously amidst the trembling.

Looking down from above, they appear to combine to form a giant golden wheel, with the swords seemingly resonating with each other.

Qian position, Kun position, Li position, Kan position...

The air crackled, followed by a terrifying killing intent that suddenly rose up, causing everyone's expression to change drastically.

Because countless people felt an aura of destruction emanating from it, and the intensity of this aura far exceeded that of Ji You himself.

"What kind of swordsmanship is this?"

"That's strange..."

Ji You stepped forward and flew towards the wind and waves, while the spirit sword behind him burst out with intense light, as if it were about to pierce the sky and crash down with an aura of world destruction.

The world is filled with spiritual energy, unlike the human race's altar, where the malevolent energy blocks the way and they can only use themselves as energy.

Moreover, he has actually shrunk considerably recently.

The Amazing Immortal Sword Formation.

With a soft whisper, a vast beam of immortal light slashed out with a "hum," causing the mountains to tremble as it swept across the land.

Wang Danba had already charged close when he suddenly felt a tremor run through his body due to instinct. Before he could react, the golden light suddenly burst forth in his eyes.

With a deafening roar, the barbarian general was sent flying, his eerie green blood splattering across the scene. As he crashed to the ground, the barbarian soldiers present were horrified.

They discovered that General Danba's left side was cracked open, and blood was constantly flowing from his mouth.

It's a familiar scent...

Danba's eyes widened in horror.

Having led troops in the North for many years, he knew very well that the aura and the great formation on the Northern city walls were almost identical.

Huchihuchi——

Ji You landed gracefully, fine beads of sweat appearing on her forehead, her chest rising and falling rhythmically with heavy breathing.

Although he had deliberately weakened the Immortal Sword Formation, its mechanism of actively absorbing spiritual energy was still a heavy burden for him, which was why he was reluctant to use it.

However, in terms of effectiveness, this sword formation is just as good as the last time it was used.

Ji You gently clenched his fist, and the golden sword array behind him slowly rotated, like a huge golden plate, with deadly killing intent flowing continuously within it.

At this moment, the valley was deathly silent.

Everyone froze in the air, staring incredulously at the man surrounded by sword energy, their eyes filled with astonishment.

They knew Ji You was very strong; some people even conducted a special assessment of his physical combat strength, which was said to be above the Boundless Realm.

But they never imagined that Ji You would be so strong, and they felt that the methods she had just used far exceeded their imagination.

He Ye and Zuoqiu Jingyun also stared intently, their minds replaying the image of the sword formation descending upon them, their faces turning somewhat pale.

They couldn't tell what kind of sword technique it was for the time being, but that didn't diminish their shock at all.

Chu Xian was a genius who had been exceptionally talented for thirty years; it was certainly not a loss for him to die at his hands...

Meanwhile, on a giant flying sword soaring through the sky, Zuo Qiuyang and the elders of the Heavenly Academy were heading this way.

When masters clash, countless killing intents can erupt in a matter of moments. Therefore, from the start of the contest until Danba's defeat, not much time was actually spent.

The fact that the Heavenly Academy arrived so quickly is quite impressive; their reaction was remarkably fast.

However, this is also thanks to the fact that among the three major immortal sects in northern Qingyun, the closest one is the Heavenly Academy.
