The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 371 The Four Corpse Saints Trapped in the Western Continent

The moment Ji Liyang appeared, the anger in the heart of the Marquis of Zhenshan, who was maintaining the corpse of the War Dragon, instantly erupted.

New and old grudges are like a spilled spice rack, a mix of emotions rushing to your heart.

"That kid was sent by you on purpose!"

The Marquis of Zhenshan was furious, and the terrifying aura emanating from him caused the entire secret realm to tremble continuously.

At this moment, Ji Liyang was surprised, but remained calm on the surface. He waved his hand and tore through space, arriving outside the secret realm of Luanshi Mountain in an instant.

On the rocky mountain, the air was thick with the aura of death, and sand and gravel flew about in the eerie wind, creating land tornadoes out of thin air. The shooting sand and gravel were like knives, enough to cut open anyone who got close.

Ji Liyang's eyes shone brightly, transcending space to meet the gaze of the Zhenshan Houshan Chongfeng deep within the underground palace.

The two were enemies, and their hatred only intensified when they met. Ji Liyang gasped inwardly, because the aura emanating from the three ancient corpses of martial saints was particularly terrifying.

"Shan Chongfeng, you secretly colluded with the remnants of the Poison Man Sect and used this corpse refining technique on the remains of a Martial Saint. You are truly depraved."

Below the terrestrial immortals lies the mortal martial saint.

How many people in this world can be called Martial Saints? Each and every one of them is an outstanding being in the world.

No one dared to provoke him while he was alive, and he is respected even after death.

However, Shan Chongfeng was so rebellious that he refined the remains of the Martial Saint into a corpse and used it as a puppet to fight.

This is no longer just an offense, but a disrespect for the Martial Saint.

If everyone did this, even the Martial Saints would not find peace in death.

No one will let such a person off easily.

Shan Chongfeng sneered repeatedly, saying, "If you are unwilling to help me regain my status as a Martial Saint, I will find a way myself. I, Shan Chongfeng, will never admit defeat in my life."

Ji Liyang waved his hand and unleashed a burst of nascent sun sword energy, which stretched for a hundred miles, its light as bright as the sun.

The wind and shadows of the chaotic mountain were cleaved apart by this sword, as if the heavens and earth were split in two.

Ji Liyang was ruthless and taciturn. This sword strike displayed the full might of a martial saint, and his sole purpose was to kill Shan Chongfeng right here.

Shan Chongfeng's face was as cold as frost. At this moment, he immediately made a hand seal, and the ancient corpse of the Rock Martial Saint behind him rushed out. Its body was as solid as a rock, and it threw a punch.

The fist came crashing down like a mountain.
The collision of the two forces seemed to shatter the entire sky.

"Rock-Solid Martial Saint"

Ji Liyang's expression turned solemn, and he knew all too well that this battle would be difficult.

A glimpse of the whole can reveal a part of the whole.

The only beings who could have appeared at the same time as the ancient corpse of the Rock Martial Saint were the Arhats and the High Priests of that era.

Since the Rock Martial Saint has preserved so much of his strength in his physical body, how much weaker can the other two be?
This battle is unlikely to be easy.

'Ji Liyang arrived so quickly, I'm afraid the War Dragon Corpse is doomed.'

Shan Chongfeng was filled with hatred. If it weren't for Ji Liyang, he would still have had a chance to stabilize the situation of the War Dragon Corpse.

The War Dragon Corpse has been formed, but its core is not yet stable. Given time, it may be possible to preserve it.

The image of Haoyang Golden Crow appeared behind Ji Liyang, instantly enveloping him in golden light. He swept out the Haoyang Giant Sword in his hand, heading directly towards the three ancient corpses of Martial Saints.

The ancient corpse of the Arhat was as clear as glass, covered by a kasaya, and a roar that sounded like a Buddhist chant came from its mouth. In an instant, the corpse's aura filled the sky and blotted out the sun.

The immense sword energy of the Haoyang Giant Sword collided with the boundless corpse energy, instantly upending the entire sky.

The three ancient corpses are ferocious, especially after the Martial Saint's body was refined into an ancient corpse, its physical strength has long surpassed that of ordinary martial artists.

Even without the golden body and Dharma form, its power is in no way inferior to that of a Martial Saint.

Ji Liyang and they fought fiercely in mid-air, causing the heavens and earth to shake and the space to tremble.

The aftershocks of the battle had already leveled several peaks of Luanshi Mountain.

Although Ji Liyang was powerful, he was now struggling under the siege of the three ancient corpses of martial saints, and his attacks were constantly being suppressed.

"If Cao Hexuan and Dang Gulan keep watching the show, I won't be so polite when I get back."

Ji Liyang loudly relayed the message, and spatial ripples reappeared in mid-air. A man dressed in black with short hair, holding a round, black sword, stepped out of the space.

With a single stroke of his sword, as if the blade itself possessed a unique gravitational pull, he directly encircled the ancient Arhat corpse in front of him.

"Another bald guy? I must have a deep-seated grudge against bald men."

Left Deputy Commander Cao Hexuan narrowed his eyes, like a drawn sword, the blade striking the body of the ancient Arhat corpse with a clang.

At this moment, the high priest's dark claws were about to grab Ji Liyang, but they were blocked by a long spear, sharp as a dragon and leaping like a wolf.

A man with a long robe and a thick beard stepped through space and entered the battle.

His eyes were deep and indifferent. He lowered his gaze slightly and swept it over the rocky mountain. He said coldly, "Using the remains of a Martial Saint as a puppet, you are truly audacious."

Behind Right Deputy Commander Dang Gulan, the image of the Lone Moon Spirit Eagle appeared, and the spear in his hand directly pierced out a hundred sharp rays, sweeping away the ancient corpse of the High Priest in front of him.

The three Martial Saints of the Demon Suppression Guards appeared together, and their powerful aura almost engulfed the entire Chaotic Rock Mountain.

"Hahaha, the old man has arrived."

The white-haired old general rode a dark lion, and Xiang Haoran rushed into the rocky mountain like a streak of fire.

He held two jet-black hammers, had eyes like copper bells, a face like a red date, and a head of white hair that danced wildly, contrasting with his black armor, making him a truly majestic military general.

"Shan Chongfeng, even after retiring for many years, he still can't let go of the military affairs of Xizhou Prefecture. Does he really think that the Demon Suppression Army has no defense at all?"

The Demon Suppression Army's Grand General himself was present, his killing intent soaring to the heavens; he was clearly a Martial Saint realm expert.

With the arrival of the Four Martial Saints, Shan Chongfeng's heart sank to the bottom.

If his Dragon Corpse hadn't been ambushed by that petty thief, things wouldn't have come to this.

"The outcome is still uncertain, but the corpses of the four of you will become my refined corpses today."

puff
As soon as Shan Chongfeng finished speaking, he pierced his own chest and pulled out his heart.

Large amounts of blood continued to drip, and at this moment, the eerie corpse energy and true essence on Shan Chongfeng's body were spreading wildly.

It was as if his entire body had become a sieve riddled with holes, and he could no longer preserve his true essence.

The lion's roar spreads across the plains!

Xiang Haoran hurled the Dao Soldier Hunyuan Hammer in his hand, like a torrent of fire falling from the sky.

At this moment, Zhanlong Corpse suddenly rushed in front of Shan Chongfeng, crossed his fists, and golden dragon shadows appeared, blocking the attack in an instant.

The ground shattered with a deafening roar, and a large depression was created within a radius of several miles.

The violent explosion left Shan Chongfeng's body cracked and covered in wounds, with blood constantly gushing from his mouth.

Despite being severely injured, Shan Chongfeng was completely unconcerned. He stuffed the bloody heart in his hand into the body of the War Dragon Corpse.

The war dragon corpse turned around and bit him. Its divine soul appeared and directly entered the corpse's body. Its essence and blood quickly withered away, and the old body instantly turned into a skeleton.

The War Dragon Corpse's eyes shone with a scarlet light, its double pupils making it appear even more eerie and ferocious.

A hoarse voice rang out: "I was severely injured while pacifying the Western Continent and suppressing the Poison Man Sect. My Martial Saint realm is gone, yet the Great Li Dynasty and you are unwilling to help me. This is inhumane. I rebuilt the Corpse King's Myriad Aspects Technique, but you forced me to sever my own body. All techniques can be accomplished, but the path to enlightenment is cut off. I deserve to die!"

"Don't try to glorify yourself." Upon hearing this, Xiang Haoran sneered repeatedly: "You used the pretense of suppressing the Poison Man Sect to slaughter nearly 300,000 people in three cities, and used this evil method to become a Martial Saint. You never mention these things."

Shan Chongfeng suddenly looked up, his cold face revealing neither joy nor sorrow: "It is their honor that lowly commoners can become my aid in achieving enlightenment."

Ji Liyang swept his cold gaze over them and said in an icy tone, "You have no remorse. Today, I will not only cut off your path, but also take your head."

"You want my head? Use Corpse Qi Seal!"

Shan Chongfeng leaped into the air and hovered in mid-air. At this moment, a powerful aura erupted from the body of the War Dragon Corpse, almost spreading throughout the entire Western Continent Prefecture.

One after another, gray land tornadoes rose from the mountain peaks of various parts of Xizhou Prefecture. They varied in size, from a little over ten feet to hundreds of feet high, shooting straight into the sky.

"Stop him!"

Xiang Haoran immediately flew over to stop him, but it was clearly too late.

The fully-formed War Dragon Corpse has already firmly established itself at the Martial Saint level, and the Golden Bear Dharma Image that guards the mountain appears behind it, standing a hundred feet tall, tearing apart all the surrounding space with a swing of its giant claws.

The War Dragon Corpse had now become Shan Chongfeng's true form. Not only was its body incredibly hard, but it also possessed the Golden Body Dharma Form and Dao Weapons.

Xizhou Prefecture was shrouded in a gray fog, and at the border, a barrier rose up, effectively cutting off the roads between the inside and outside.

Even when a martial artist at the Danqiao Realm bombarded these barriers, it only caused a tiny ripple.

"Today, you will all die here!"

Shan Chongfeng leaped forward, charging straight at Ji Liyang. With a powerful punch, the corpse poison and corpse energy seemed to come alive, attacking the attacker.

not good!

Ji Liyang and the others' expressions changed. Cao Hexuan said, "The ancient corpses are all connected; their energy is linked together."

"If we suppress them and the blockade of Xizhou Prefecture remains unbroken, I'm afraid none of our men inside Xizhou Prefecture will be able to get out."

This is absolutely true. Right now, Xizhou Prefecture is sealed off by corpse energy, which is like a giant vat for raising Gu poison.

Many warriors from the Demon Suppression Guard and the Demon Suppression Army are facing an attack from the Shan family here.

At this point, the border blockade means that they are unlikely to receive reinforcements in the short term, and if not handled properly, they may face total annihilation.

"Then kill him as soon as possible."

Ji Liyang transformed into a golden body and charged directly towards the Zhanlong corpse.

The four of them joined forces and annihilated Shan Chongfeng.

The battle raged fiercely, causing darkness to fall, space to shatter, and deafening roars to be heard everywhere.

……

Meanwhile, Su Yan, after passing through the breakthrough space passage prepared in advance by the ancient insect of the spirit realm, fell directly to the edge of the chaotic rock mountain.

His bones were dislocated, a third of his bones were broken, and he kept spitting out blood. He looked extremely wretched.

"Old man, I will repay this grudge severely in the future."

Su Yan swallowed several pills in succession to stabilize his injuries. He dared not linger for even a moment and flew away from the Chaotic Stone Mountain Secret Realm.

The moment the man stepped out of the secret realm, Shan Wuyai and Shan Wukuang, who were originally responsible for suppressing the secret realm, discovered his whereabouts and chased him to the edge of the entrance to the secret realm.

"You little thief, surrender now, or don't blame me for being impolite."

Shan Wuyai had already made a threatening sound from afar, and his figure instantly covered a hundred feet, heading straight for Su Yan.

"Come and chase me if you dare."

The wind and thunder wings behind Su Yan materialized and instantly transformed into wind and thunder, allowing him to escape to a greater distance.

He dared not linger for even a moment, fearing that the Marquis of Zhenshan would react and personally take him away.

In a chase, they had already covered dozens of miles in no time.

At this moment, an extremely terrifying energy collision came from the chaotic rock mountain, which greatly surprised Su Yan, Shan Wuyai, and Shan Wukuang.

In particular, Shan Wuyai and Shan Wukuang became increasingly uncertain.

"The methods of a Martial Saint, they actually used a Martial Saint."

"How to do?"

"Even if we chase after them and they go back, we can't help them."

The two separated and chased each other, and soon reached the border.

"whoosh whoosh"

Shan Wukuang shot out twenty flying knives, each one seemingly with eyes, heading straight for Su Yan.

As Su Yan fled, he fought back, unleashing a Hundred Tigers Breaking Army Seal with a single gesture.

However, in response, Shan Wuyai activated some secret technique and instantly teleported in front of Su Yan.

They were caught in a pincer attack in the desert, one in front and one behind.

"Eighth Heaven of the Dharma Realm"

Su Yan was stopped, and the cultivation levels of the two men were revealed; neither of them were simple characters.

The eighth level of the Dharma Aspect Realm is far more powerful than the Mountain Without a Peak.

"Hand over the Corpse King Worm, and we might leave you with a whole corpse."

Shan Wuyai spoke threateningly, and Su Yan slightly raised his eyes: "Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

Su Yan raised his hand, and all the ferocious insects in the insect realm space were released one by one: Dragon Vein Ancient Insect, Blood Bone Centipede King, Gold-Eating Emperor Insect, Molten Mountain Giant Scorpion, Corpse King Insect, Star Shadow Demon Spider, Divine Fiend Locust...

All of them are at the fourth tier, especially the three-headed Dragon Vein Ancient Insect, Gold-Eating Emperor Insect, and Corpse King Insect, which have already reached the mid-to-late stage of the fourth tier.

At this moment, the two brothers, Shan Wuyai and Shan Wukuang, suddenly froze, their faces darkening, their hearts filled with doubt.

How could he possibly have so many Tier 4 War Bugs?
"Kill that brat first!"

The Golden Bear Dharma Form of Shan Wukuang Town appeared, rushing straight towards Su Yan like a running lion.

"boom"

The giant scorpion blocked the attack, its body engulfed in raging spirit-fusion flames, and stopped the attack with a single slap.

Even before reaching the fourth rank, it was already able to contend with fourth-rank beings using the body of the Giant Spirit Beast. Now that it has broken through, and with the Heart of Earth Fire enhancing the power of its flames, its blocking seems so natural.

"kill"

Without any further words, Su Yan directly issued the order to fight.

His face showed neither joy nor sorrow, but he knew in his heart that every minute he delayed meant greater danger. If he were caught in the crossfire of the battle between the martial saints of Luanshi Mountain, he would surely die.

In an instant, apart from the Dragon Vein Ancient Worm and the Corpse King Worm, all the other ferocious insects rushed towards Shan Wukuang.

A hook claw appeared in Shan Wuyai's hand, and Su Yan coldly roared:

"The Insect Lord's divine form has appeared throughout the universe, and ferocious insects have manifested!"
