The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 300 Ambush and Surprise Attack
How can it be? !
The scattered sword energy tore the ground open, leaving deep ravines, yet Su Yan and Wu Jijun remained unharmed.

Wu Jijun's eyes widened, his face a mixture of shock and anger, because Su Yan was not injured and was evenly matched with him.

He is a Celestial Warrior of the Stars, and he has even constructed a star map.

Su Yan is only at the peak of the Third Heaven Realm, how could that be?!
Wu Jijun dared not underestimate the person in front of him any longer. In an instant, the Extreme Demon Sword in his hand unleashed hundreds of fierce, pitch-black sword energies, slashing towards Su Yan.

Driven by the star map, it stirred up the endless spiritual energy around it, and the scattered sword energy isolated the entire battlefield, making it impossible for anyone to break into it.

Faced with such sword energy, Su Yan remained calm and composed. His robes fluttered, his three cores appeared like stars, and one hundred and eighty small star apertures surrounded his body, his true essence abundant.

The insect armor covered its entire body, including the surface of the armor.

He raised his hand and pointed, and the Ten Thousand Insects Prison Tower flew out, transforming into a hundred-foot-tall tower that fell in front of him like a falling star.

The sword energy clanged and pounded like a storm, but it couldn't break through the Ten Thousand Insects Prison Tower in the slightest.

This is a fourth-grade low-level spiritual weapon, crafted from a section of the spine of a half-saint blood dragon and a wisp of the Dao soldier's essence.

Even if Su Yan cannot unleash his full power at the moment, it is still not something that sword energy can easily break through.
"Insect Lock Seals the Sky!"

Su Yan directly activated the Ten Thousand Insects Suppressing Prison Tower, and countless chains shot out, piercing through Wu Jijun's sword energy and heading straight for his body.

On the pitch-black tower of the Ten Thousand Insect Prison Tower, scarlet insect patterns began to move as if resurrected, one after another appearing and attacking Wu Jijun.

When Wu Jijun saw countless chains coming at him, accompanied by a dense swarm of insect shadows, his face turned ashen.

"With the advantage of my magical artifact, watch how I defeat you!"

With a flick of his sword, Wu Jijun unleashed countless manifestations of the Extreme Demon Sword, which slashed directly at him.

The sword flashed sharply, its sharp light clashing with the chains with a crisp, clanging sound.

The sword light kept breaking through the chains, but the chains kept multiplying.

Wu Jijun felt that Su Yan was extremely difficult to deal with. He drew upon the spiritual energy within a ten-mile radius with his true essence, which was as powerful as a tsunami. His demonic sword swept across the sky and rushed straight towards Su Yan.

Seeing his impressive display, Su Yan became extremely vigilant, and streams of true intent appeared before him, converging with starlight.

A massive swarm of ferocious insects!

As the star array appeared, the ferocious insects manifested like stars, completely imprisoning Wu Jijun.

The hundred-foot-long demonic sword pierced the barrier of the great formation, unleashing terrifying power. The two forces clashed, directly altering the sky and creating an aura of earth-shattering collapse.

The true intent of the Subduing Tiger King descended, his golden palm pressing down and striking the blade of the demonic sword with a thunderous boom.

The nine-headed venomous dragon shot out nine rays of highly poisonous energy, which corroded a large layer of the true essence of the demonic sword.

Wu Jijun's face was ashen, but he still intensified the infusion of his true essence, continuously attacking the barrier with the demonic sword.

As the two were locked in a stalemate, a ghostly figure suddenly rushed directly towards Su Yan.

The Old Ancestor of Rotten Serpents raised his hand and sent out a gray-green rotten serpent that lunged straight at Su Yan's head to bite.

not good!

Everyone was shocked by what they saw, and their faces turned deathly pale. But neither Hong Qingyue nor Chen Xuanmo could save them in time.

There was actually a second Zhuxing Tianwu on Lengquan Peak.

"Boy, today is your death day!"

Both the Old Ancestor of the Rotten Serpent and the Martial Lord smiled. The Martial Lord used his sword energy to further restrict Su Yan's movements.

Their biggest trump card is the support from the Old Ancestor of the Rotten Serpent.

Su Yan controlled two streams of true intent to counter Martial Supreme with the Ferocious Insect Array, and for the time being, he was indeed unable to free up his hands.

However, as the decaying snake approached, the killing intent of this fourth-tier Gu beast was already within reach.

Suddenly a figure flew out, its claws slicing across the rotten snake's body, instantly tearing a deep gash that exposed bone.

"what?!"

The rotten snake avoided the fatal attack, but it was also seriously injured. Strange evil energy continued to invade its wounds, and even the Gu beast could not resist such erosion.

As the Old Ancestor of the Decaying Serpent looked over, a ferocious and eerie worm blocked his way, its icy pressure locking onto his aura as if it were staring at its prey.

"finally come."

Su Yan raised his eyes and coldly uttered a single word: "Kill."

The Divine Fiend Locust received his command, transformed into malevolent energy, and charged directly at the Decaying Serpent Ancestor.

The Old Ancestor of the Decaying Serpent's expression hardened, and he unleashed his natal spiritual weapon.

Unexpectedly, the Divine Fiend Locust's body suddenly split in two, transforming into a sky full of fiend bees, causing his attack to miss its mark.

The claws attacked, their murderous aura forming blades, aimed directly at his face.

The Old Ancestor of Rotten Snakes hurriedly dodged and summoned Rotten Snakes for help.

The malevolent energy split into two black winds that directly enveloped the decaying snake. The malevolent energy corroded its body, and the decaying snake instantly became weak.

Wu Jijun also wanted to attack Su Yan, forcing him to be distracted and unable to control the battle.

Unexpectedly, several ferocious insects suddenly appeared behind Su Yan: a giant scorpion with a body like a mountain of lava, a shadow spider with a shadowy body, and a queen rock ant with thousands of rock ants, appearing directly on the battlefield.

The giant scorpion spewed a pillar of lava fire that struck Wu Jijun directly.

Wu Jijun still wanted to dodge, but at this moment he was locked in a stalemate with Su Yan. He was not only restraining Su Yan, but he was also being imprisoned by Su Yan in the ferocious insect formation.

The chains of the Ten Thousand Insects Prison Tower are intertwined, and the ferocious insect formation is sealed within the barrier, leaving no room for escape.

bang
The Extreme Demon Sword was pierced through, and Wu Jijun's body was also blasted into a deep pit in the ground.

The ground rocks melted instantly, turning into the shape of lava.

Wu Jijun disappeared into the magma, and his figure could not be seen for a long time.

Su Yan showed no mercy, smashing the Ten Thousand Insect Prison Tower directly down on it, the booming sound like an earthquake.

After being smashed three times in a row, Wu Jijun emerged from the deep magma pit in a disheveled state, covered in blood, his skin already charred black.

If it weren't for my strong abilities that protected my body, I would probably be a charred corpse by now.

However, just as he flew out, Su Yan's Poison Dragon Sword suddenly slashed down.

He stared wide-eyed as the poisonous dragon blade plunged into his body.

The sword blade pierced through his body, and Wu Jijun's head was severed from his body, falling to the ground.

The Old Ancestor of the Rotten Serpent was terrified at the sight, but even if he wanted to escape, he had no chance now.

His strength was already slightly inferior to that of Wuji Jun, and now he was surrounded by rolling baleful energy, with the Divine Fiend Locust among them. The divine fiend attack was like a gale surging from an extremely cold place, each gust feeling like it was tearing flesh.

The more the true essence circulates, the more terrifyingly it is eroded, and the meridians throughout the body are corroded by the evil energy.

With a "whoosh," the Old Ancestor of the Rotten Serpent was distracted, and the Divine Fiend Locust condensed in the baleful aura. Then, its sharp claws instantly pierced through his body, and the baleful aura completely engulfed him.

When it reappeared, it was a desiccated, grayish-white corpse.

Su Yan won a great victory, and the mountain guards erupted in thunderous cheers!
The cold spring peak seemed to tremble with shock, and the defending warriors on the opposite side were already in a panic.

Standing atop the giant lava scorpion's head, Su Yan commanded, "Attack the city!"

The giant lava scorpion crushed the barrier, and pillars of lava fire slammed into the city wall, creating a hole several meters wide.

The Divine Fiend Locust transformed into 100,000 fiend bees, like a dark cloud covering the entire battlefield.

Those Danqiao Realm martial artists who were still fighting Hong Qingyue had now found an opportunity to scatter like birds and beasts.

The Celestial Warriors have already been defeated; if they stay any longer, they will only be throwing their lives away.

The battlefield descended into chaos as the Divine Fiend Locust, Shadow Spider, and Rock Demon Ant Queen intercepted and killed several Danqiao martial artists on the battlefield.

The giant scorpion and the rhinoceros-deer of the mountain shattered the city walls, and the cloud beast ships poured into Cold Spring Peak, engaging in close combat and continuous fighting.

When the Battle of Zhuxingtian ended, the battle became an even more devastating massacre. Unless the demonic warriors were unable to escape, they were all seeking a way out.

Flying boats and wild beasts all took to the air and quickly retreated. Those who could not retreat in time would then seek a sliver of hope in the fierce fighting and street battles.

After Su Yan's Divine Fiend Locusts intercepted the Danqiao, they transformed into tens of thousands of fiend bees that swarmed into Cold Spring Peak City, joining the massacre and plundering the battlefield's essence and fiend energy.

The battle lasted for half a day, during which the Beast King Sect warriors completely eliminated the demonic warriors and reclaimed Cold Spring Peak.

Disciples from all sides cleaned up the battlefield, while those from Fuyue Peak began to assess and repair the extent of the damage to the city walls.

Among the disciples, the array masters were also gathered by Hong Qingyue, and they immediately went to the core of the array eye of Lengquan Peak to regain control of the mountain-protecting array.

However, in the underground palace a hundred feet below the city lord's mansion, Hong Qingyue's face was ashen, and he could hardly contain his anger.

The massive bronze pillar deep within the mountain had been cut in half. The densely packed runes had faded and their patterns had been completely destroyed, as if it had been eroded, leaving it pitted, uneven, and covered with fine cracks and fissures.

Hong Qingyue asked in a deep voice, "Junior Sister Liu, how long will it take to repair the Mountain-Stabilizing Pillar and restart the Hundred Peaks Barrier formation?"

Liu Dongzhu looked troubled. She frowned and said, "Even with enough materials, it would take a whole year to rebuild the Mountain-Stabilizing Pillar. It would also require several third-tier array masters, weapon refiners, and spirit sealers to work together. If we were to do it now, it would probably take several years."

Liu Dongzhu smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that the moment they captured Lengquan Peak, they would have already completely destroyed Dingshan Pillar."

The Dingshan Pillar is the key to the defense of the Hundred Peaks, and also the key to mobilizing the entire mountain range and uniting the Hundred Peaks into one place.

No wonder the Martial Lord and his men guarding the city didn't activate a stronger form of the grand formation; it wasn't that they didn't want to, but that they couldn't.

"Report this to my junior brother. I'm afraid it's not just Lengquan Peak that's in this situation; Niushou Peak and Tan Peak are in the same predicament. I'm afraid the Hundred Peaks Barrier will be unable to fully defend against the enemy."

……

Su Yan received the news from Hong Qingyue, and his expression was not good, but he really couldn't help with the matter of the formation.

They had no choice but to order the mountain guards to further clear out the demonic warriors on and around Cold Spring Peak, as well as on the outer side.

With the main formation unable to activate and only the defensive formation barely functioning, Cold Spring Peak has a weak point. If it isn't cleared out, it might be vulnerable to a counterattack.

Cold Spring Peak was the first to be captured, but Altar Peak, where Long Qiushui was located, was not so easy to conquer.

For three consecutive days, the fighting had been exhausting. Su Yan dispatched two legions, especially the Giant Ridge Rhinoceros Deer, which finally gave them the upper hand.

On the fifth day, Mu Yu arrived to provide reinforcements, and together with Long Qiushui, they broke through the defenses of the altar peak, defeated Tang Ling and Ma Hong, the two martial artists from the Three Flames Divine Palace, and successfully occupied the altar peak.

On the sixth day, Niushou Peak was captured by the Sword One Sect and the Nine Peaks Sect, and from then on, all the Hundred Peaks Barriers were returned to the hands of the righteous path.

"Outside Cold Spring Peak, all demonic martial artists within a three-hundred-mile radius have retreated; the Holy Weapon Path, the Three Flames Divine Palace, the Hundred Caves Witch Clan, along with all the smaller sects, have vanished without a trace."

Inside the main hall, Hong Qingyue looked serious. According to everyone's plan, they originally wanted to expand the space outwards to prevent the demonic warriors from attacking.

Outside Lengquan Peak, there are several other towns and counties, all protected by city walls. If they are all recaptured, they can form a defensive perimeter.

However, just as they were about to make their move, they discovered that the demonic warriors had retreated first.

The entire town was looted; people, resources, and almost everything else were swept away.

Chen Xuanmo said, "It's normal for them to retreat since they couldn't hold Cold Spring Peak, but their methods..."

"Abnormal"

Su Yan looked thoughtful. He said, "Clearing out a town is not something that can be done in a few days. We only took one day to take down Cold Spring Peak."

Those with advanced cultivation levels present reacted, their faces showing suspicion: "They were prepared all along?"

"I'm afraid this is the only possibility."

Su Yan's expression turned solemn, which meant that the demonic martial artist had his own plans.

The warriors who destroyed the mountain pillar and withdrew from the attack...

"Notify Tanfeng to be on the lookout, report to Elder Gong Chenxing, and also tell Uncle Hong to gather more information about the movements of the demonic martial artists."

"it is good"

Following Su Yan's instructions, Hong Qingyue continuously sent people to gather information.

The messages that kept coming back made them increasingly aware that something was wrong, as if a storm was brewing.

The peaks of the Hundred Peaks Fortress gradually noticed the retreat of the demonic warriors.

At this moment, everyone noticed that the three major demonic sects, along with their numerous subordinate forces, had gathered outside Wangtian Pass.

Knock on the gate!

The same thought arose in everyone's mind: the demonic warriors were gathering all their power, preparing to clash with the righteous warriors at Wangtian Pass.

However, within seven days, the seven great Dharma Aspects of the Demonic Path knocked on the Wangtian Pass and engaged in a fierce battle with the Dharma Aspects of the Righteous Path.

The sky and earth changed color, mountains collapsed and the earth cracked. The duel lasted for half a day, and the two sides were evenly matched before they finally withdrew.

Outside Wangtian Pass, 100,000 demonic warriors were stationed, and more than 100 Danqiao warriors had gathered, truly coming to knock on the gate.

Gong Chenxing was also at Wangtian Pass when an imperial edict arrived, summoning warriors from the Three Heavens to gather at Wangtian Pass.

Upon receiving the news, Su Yan and the others, along with Hong Qingyue, Chen Xuanmo, Liu Dongzhu, and Feng Mingyuan, headed straight for Wangtian Pass.

As more and more people gathered from both sides, Su Yan had just landed and was not yet settled in.

Suddenly, a shocking piece of news came from within Wangtian Pass, which stunned everyone.

The Wu Kingdom dispatched 400,000 troops, bypassing the Hundred Peaks Barrier, and invaded Lingnan Prefecture and Donghuang Prefecture from the southeast side of the Manmoze Land.

The Dharma Avatar and more than ten others fought a fierce battle, while the Demon Suppression Guard, the Beast King Sect, and the Demon Suppression Army fought for several days, but were kept out.

The sudden battle was truly earth-shattering.
