Chapter 409 Dealing with evil spirits and heretics doesn't require following any rules of the martial arts world (Seeking monthly votes! Seeking follow-up subscriptions!)

In Chuzhou City, major battles broke out at all four city gates.

Just last night, more than 3,000 members of the Bad Guys, within an hour, pasted paper figures that combined the substitute death talisman and the location talisman (made by the Tongtianlu) onto 380,000 civilians. When they suffered fatal injuries, the power of the runes on the paper figures would be activated.

While helping these people avert a fatal disaster, Sun Xuanji, who is twenty miles away, will immediately activate a teleportation array to send 380,000 people away, while the hidden villains will appear in Chuzhou City to launch an attack.

The soldiers in Chuzhou City are all elites. Although their average cultivation level is not high, they are good at teamwork. Once they form a battle formation, even if there are only a few thousand people, the power they can unleash will far exceed that of an equal number of stronger martial artists.

However, the Bad Guys who came to Chuzhou City this time were all outstanding talents carefully selected by Wu Xian from the Great Fengtian Prison. They not only had considerable cultivation, but also extremely ruthless fighting methods, with their main focus being to use any means necessary.

In addition, after being transformed by Wu Xian's dual-wielding skills, these three thousand rogues became obedient and fearless. Furthermore, with their minds instilled with a large number of advanced martial arts assassination techniques, even the fiercest and most ruthless Chuzhou army quickly found themselves at a disadvantage, and it was only a matter of time before they were wiped out.

However, this is, after all, a world of extraordinary beings. The true determinants of victory or defeat in battle are never the lowly soldiers, but the top-tier powerhouses.

"I never expected you to get involved in this mess."

Near the southern city, Luo Yuheng frowned slightly, watching the dark figure slowly approaching from the opposite side.

Black lotuses bloomed beneath the opponent's feet, and black pus flowed from their body. Their eyes, as they looked at him, revealed undisguised lust.

The evil incarnation of the Earth Sect's leader, the Black Lotus Old Daoist.

"My dear niece, it's been so many years, you've become even more beautiful..."

Black Lotus licked her lips, making a "slurp" sound, her tone both wicked and lewd, as she said:
"Come here quickly, your uncle will help you suppress your karmic fire, and while you're at it, I'll let you taste what it's like to be a woman, hehehe—"

Upon hearing this, Luo Yuheng's lips twitched, and for some reason, she thought of a certain shameless little man.

Looking again at the ugly black humanoid figure before him, a strange thought suddenly arose: "If I had to choose between dual cultivation, I might as well choose that person..."

Wait! Why would I think that?!
A blush flashed across her delicate face, and then she looked coldly at the Black Lotus Taoist priest, drawing her rusty iron sword.

"die!!"

A dazzling sword light, remarkably similar to that of Joan of Arc, burst forth, and with the added sharpness of the Human Sect Divine Sword, it naturally became even more terrifying.

Seeing this, Black Lotus stopped her neurotic laughter. The black lotus beneath her feet suddenly enlarged dozens of times, and at the same time, it gushed out a jet-black, viscous liquid like a spring, rushing towards the sword light in front of her, like a huge mouth, swallowing up the power of the sword.

Luo Yuheng was not surprised at all. After all, the other party was a second-rank expert of the Daoist sect. He couldn't have been dealt with so easily. Moreover, compared with the monster that stood still and ignored his sword energy, Black Lotus's performance was far inferior.

With this thought in mind, Luo Yuheng held the iron sword upright in front of him and attacked with the sword control technique. Then, the sword intent condensed into sword intent, one becoming two, two becoming three, three becoming all things, and ten thousand swords were released at once, shooting towards the black lotus like a torrential rain.

chi chi chi...

Black Lotus's defenses were pierced by the torrential rain of sword energy, but his body seemed to be made of filth from a stinking ditch, making it difficult to truly destroy, and he quickly repaired the pierced wounds.

However, these sword shadows were condensed sword intent. The mud could repair physical damage, but it could not offset mental damage. Soon, a painful groan was heard in the air, indicating that he had been injured.

The Taoist system differs from that of martial artists; they do not possess immortal bodies, and once the Yang Spirit is damaged, the damage is difficult to repair.

"Ouch, it hurts so much!!"

Master Black Lotus clutched his chest and screamed in agony.

He was enraged, and suddenly found his beautiful and charming junior niece unlovable, filled with malice, and screamed:
"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you... I'm going to take you back for dual cultivation... Should I kill you or cultivate with you? So annoying, so annoying, so annoying..."

In a nervous roar, his body suddenly collapsed, transforming into a black face the size of a small building, composed of a thick, syrup-like black liquid.

The human face opened its huge mouth and lunged at Luo Yuheng, trying to swallow her whole.

"Humph! Courting death!"

Luo Yuheng smiled coldly, flipped his rusty iron sword, and the surrounding sword shadows also condensed, as if ten thousand swords had returned, combining into a giant sword ten feet in size, which pierced towards the flying black face.

boom!
The face exploded, and a dark, murky rain began to fall from the sky.

The remaining sword energy swept several miles away, landing on the city wall of the south city. It was neutralized by the runes on the city's protective array and quickly disappeared without a trace. At the same time, facing the turbid rain dripping from above, Luo Yuheng immediately retreated and took out a magical artifact similar to a canopy to shield himself from the rain.

The Black Lotus possesses the power of corruption, which is extremely unfriendly to the Heavenly and Human Sects, especially given Luo Yuheng's current situation. Even a slight contact with it would trigger the karmic fire within her body to erupt.

Seemingly sensing this, the air once again emitted the eerie, cackling laughter of the Black Lotus.

Immediately afterwards, black lotuses began to bloom throughout the entire city of Chuzhou. They grew wildly, without any killing power, but when they reached a certain size, they would explode, scattering black, viscous liquid in all directions, carrying a strong corrupting power that polluted all living creatures.

The Chuzhou soldiers and the Bad People who were fighting at the four city gates were also affected.

The former instantly became ferocious, increasing its offensive power by several times, but the coordination between the troops became increasingly chaotic, making it unclear whether it had become stronger or weaker.

On the other hand, the Bad Guys, whose personalities had been altered by the Double-Edged Sword, remained emotionally stable and calmly handled the battle.

However, Li Miaozhen and Hengyuan were more unlucky. They had not undergone personality modification, and the viscous liquid that fell on their bodies quickly caused them to have many distracting thoughts, gradually leading them to become possessed by demons.

Especially Li Miaozhen, whose eyes were gradually shrouded in darkness, as if she might transform from the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Sect into a wicked witch who brings calamity to the world at any moment.

Faced with this corrupting power, neither the accompanying scholar Zhang Shen nor the extraordinary Sun Xuanji had a solution, and Luo Yuheng was too preoccupied with his own problems to handle them. The situation quickly turned dire.

Just then, a silvery laugh rang out, echoing in every corner of Chuzhou City. The voice was so alluring that it stirred feelings of love within people, making them yearn to find its source.

The Chuzhou soldiers, who were originally in a berserk state, all looked up at the sky, driven by their survival instincts and evil thoughts.

A slender figure descended from the sky.

Dressed in white and barefoot, with exquisite features, the wind caressed her hair and lifted her skirt, truly like a fairy from the heavens stepping down to the mortal world.

Immediately afterwards, the woman took out a black carving knife from her waist and gently tossed it down towards Chuzhou City below.

The instant the blade touched the ground, a visible stream of pure energy rapidly spread, instantly clearing away all the black lotuses and dispelling the corrupting power within everyone's bodies.

The Chuzhou soldiers' eyes cleared, no longer showing their initial cold indifference. They had been controlled by witchcraft, which was why they were massacring civilians on the orders of the Prince of Huai.

Under the cleansing force of this pure energy, the witchcraft was also dispelled. In an instant, they regained their will and remembered what they had done. One by one, they put down their weapons and wept bitterly.

Seeing this, the villains stopped their attack and stood silently in place, waiting for orders.

Meanwhile, the corrupting power was broken by the righteous spirit of Confucianism, and the black lotus also suffered a backlash. Its body, made of mud, trembled continuously and turned into a black light, trying to escape from this place.

However, the next second, a large formation blocked its path and deflected it back.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Yuheng stepped forward again, this time accompanied by the white-robed, barefoot King of the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom, as well as the third-rank sorcerer Sun Xuanji, and the teleported Jili Zhigu and Zhu Jiu, each occupying a position and surrounding the Black Lotus.

Two second-rank and three third-rank—such a lineup is terrifying. Coupled with the attribute advantage of the Confucian Sage Carving Blade, even if Black Lotus has many ways to protect herself, she is likely to be in grave danger today.

A brawl? Not a chance!
Can a righteous brawl really be called a brawl? It's called a severe crackdown on evil.

In short, when dealing with these evil spirits, there's no need to follow any rules of the martial arts world; just go head-to-head!
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!! Why did this happen! Why did it turn out like this!!"

Black Lotus let out a sharp roar, filled with resentment and anger.

“Jinlian once asked me for help to join forces against you, but I was unwilling to help him then, simply because I didn’t want to take any risks. However, this time the situation is different.”

"And since he's the one who brought it up, I might as well show him what I'm capable of."

As she spoke, Luo Yuheng gently bit her fingertip, rubbed it against the rusty iron sword, and whispered:
"Black Lotus, you deserve to die."
