Searching for the best path, starting from Renjia Town

Chapter 219 Slaying the Blood Demon!
"This is……"

A long sword lay across his face, and seven stars flashed in succession on its blade. Li Kunshan looked surprised.

He took out all his possessions, including seven treasures imbued with the remnants of the Qing Dynasty's fortune, and handed them all over to Number One, instructing him to forge an extremely powerful magic weapon, powerful enough to even kill the Blood Demon.

I just mentioned it casually before, and I didn't really have high expectations. Who would have thought that Number One would actually forge this Seven Star Sword!

Both are made of seven stars, but the Seven Star Crescent Blade can slay the Blood Demon, so the Seven Star Sword might not be able to do the same!
"Try it!"

Whether it works or not, we'll find out once we try.

The several cultivators were on the verge of collapse. Now that they had the Seven Star Sword in hand, even if Li Kunshan wanted to escape, he would have to stab the Blood Demon a few times before he could flee.

Phew~!

Without hesitation, accompanied by a sharp whooshing sound, the sword light pierced the night sky, and the Seven Star Sword shot towards the Blood Demon.

Besides the title of "Master Craftsman of Weapon Forging," Li Kunshan also has another orange-tier title related to swords: "Grandmaster of Sword Control!"
The so-called sword control refers to controlling the sword with one's qi and mind.

Li Kunshan is now incredibly powerful, both in terms of his vital energy and his spiritual power.

With these hard requirements combined with the relevant keywords, his sword control skills are considered top-notch in the entire spirit fantasy world.

"Ok?"

Just as the Blood Demon was about to severely injure a True Person, he suddenly felt a tightness all over his body.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a flying sword heading straight for him.

With the Blood Demon's cultivation and physique, let alone a flying sword, even the True Martial Sword of Wudang Mountain would be no match for him.

But for some reason, he sensed a dangerous aura emanating from the sword.

Hurrah~!

Temporarily abandoning the immortal, the Blood Demon raised his hand and waved it, unleashing a surge of evil energy in an attempt to block the flying sword.

Tsk~!

But to the Blood Demon's utter surprise, his powerful evil aura was easily sliced ​​through like butter in front of this flying sword.

Immediately afterwards, the flying sword not only did not slow down at all, but instead became three times faster, and arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye.

"no!"

Blood Demon's eyes widened, the sense of danger growing stronger. Not daring to take the attack head-on, he immediately dodged away.

Swish~!

The sword flashed, leaving a mark on the ground, but unfortunately it did not hit the Blood Demon.

"You dodged it...you dodged it!"

In the distance, Li Kunshan made a sword-controlling hand gesture, first frowning, then his face filled with excitement.

Although the sword strike failed, the Blood Demon dodged it, indicating his fear of the Seven Star Sword.

In other words, this sword is useful!

"Great!"

As long as it works, that's fine. Li Kunshan's expression hardened, and he immediately activated his flying sword, unleashing a flurry of slashes and hacks at the Blood Demon.

"what happened!"

The Blood Demon dared not confront its power directly and could only dodge continuously.

Looking at the Seven Star Sword, which gleamed with cold light, he was filled with anger and confusion.

The feeling this sword gave him was almost the same as the Seven Star Crescent Blade!
I just destroyed a Seven Star Blade, and now a Seven Star Sword has appeared!

"This is……"

On the other side, Zhang Jingqing and the others were also full of astonishment.

They had thought there was no way to fight the Blood Demon and were already considering a 'tactical retreat'. Unexpectedly, two people from who-knows-where delivered a sword that could actually threaten the Blood Demon.

"Great!"

Realizing this, everyone felt a surge of excitement, and then their gazes suddenly hardened.

With this sword, we might be able to slay the Blood Demon today!
"how so!"

On the other side, Lei Gang, who had just been full of pride, was stunned when he saw the Blood Demon being chased around by the Seven Star Sword.

When he found the Seven Star Crescent Blade, he did not see the sword, and he had never heard of any divine sword that could restrain the Blood Demon. So where did this sword come from?
"hateful!"

He thought the world was within his grasp, but unexpectedly, such a change occurred. Lei Gang was filled with resentment, and then his brows furrowed.

As the saying goes, it's all or nothing. If the Blood Demon is killed, not only will he be unable to dominate the human world, but as the Blood Demon's accomplice, he will surely be judged and punished by the righteous path!
At that time, I fear my life will be in danger!

"Fortunately."

With his eyes wide open and fixed on the field, Lei Gang breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Although the Blood Demon dared not confront the sword head-on, fortunately, the Blood Demon was swift enough to dodge it.

In fact, if it weren't for those few real people getting in the way, the Blood Demon could have rushed up and killed the swordsman directly.

What use is a sword if no one is wielding it?

However, as time went by, the Blood Demon's strength gradually recovered. While dodging the flying swords, he was able to find time to deal with those few True Immortals, and it was only a matter of time before he killed them all.

"Hmph~!"

Thinking of this, Lei Gang snorted coldly, his face showing smugness again. In the end, they were the ones who won!
"no!"

After dozens of sword strikes failed to reach the Blood Demon, Li Kunshan frowned deeply.

Lei Gang could see the problem, so how could he not see it? The problem was that he couldn't solve it.

With his cultivation level, his sword-wielding speed could only reach this level, which was far from keeping up with the Blood Demon's speed.

As the saying goes, brute force can overcome any skill; the vast difference in skill level cannot be bridged by technique alone.

"Good grand-disciple, your grandmaster will lend you a hand."

Just as he was getting anxious, Master Xuanyi suddenly spoke up and put his hand on Li Kunshan's right shoulder.

"This is……"

The next moment, he felt a jolt throughout his body as a powerful force surged from Master Xuanyi's palm, enveloping Li Kunshan's entire body.

Transmitting skills? No, that's not right.

Unlike the transmission of internal energy in martial arts novels, this method does not enhance Li Kunshan's skill or cultivation, but simply helps him directly increase his strength, just as Master Xuanyi said, giving him a helping hand.

It was as if Master Xuanyi's hand was grasping Li Kunshan's hand, allowing him to 'lift' something heavier.

Phew~!

With the help of Master Xuanyi, the speed of the Seven Star Sword suddenly increased by more than double!
Tsk~!

Caught off guard, he slashed the Blood Demon's arm.

"Ok?"

Although the wound healed quickly, the Blood Demon's expression changed drastically in an instant.

If you can wound him with one sword, you can naturally wound him with a second or third sword, or even kill him!

Looking at Xuan Yi Zhenren behind Li Kunshan, the Blood Demon's face was filled with resentment again.

"Damn old Taoist priest!"

"The old Taoist priest won't die anytime soon."

Master Xuan Yi's face was as white as paper, with a slight smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Although it wasn't a direct fight, the fact that he was seriously injured meant that this extremely strenuous activity was still a considerable burden for Master Xuanyi.

But as long as I can kill the Blood Demon, I'm willing to risk my life.

"Master."

Turning his head to look at Master Xuan Yi, Li Kunshan's expression turned serious, followed by a firm gaze. All he could do at this moment was to control his sword with all his might.

Phew~!

With a flick of his sword finger, the Seven Star Sword shot towards the Blood Demon once more.

"Roar~!"

Faced with a flying sword whose speed had increased to the same level as his, the Blood Demon roared and his blood energy surged.

The next moment, blood surged out and transformed into more than a dozen individuals that looked exactly like him.

"Haha! You only have one sword, what can you do to me!"

All the blood demons threw their heads back and laughed, then their eyes turned fierce as they charged toward Li Kunshan.

Doppelgänger?

Li Kunshan frowned instantly. That's right, he only had one sword. Even if he was fast enough, it was impossible for him to kill or stop all the blood demons in an instant.

If even one of them charged in, it would be enough to wipe him out.

"I'll lend you a hand too."

At the critical moment, another large hand landed on Li Kunshan's left shoulder; it was Zhang Jingqing.

Buzz~!

The next moment, the Seven Star Sword trembled and instantly transformed into three hundred swords, densely arranged in the air.

"If you can control a sword with your qi, you can also transform qi into a sword. Kid, your divine sense is not weak, you should be able to control it, right?"

"Of course!"

Li Kunshan responded with a confident smile on his face.

Boo hoo hoo~!

The next moment, three hundred Seven Star Swords shot towards the dozen or so blood demons from all directions. Seemingly chaotic, they were actually orderly, not only sealing off all angles from the dozen or so blood demons, but also ensuring that the three hundred flying swords did not affect each other.

*Sizzle* *Pfft*!

With so many flying swords, the Blood Demon had nowhere to dodge or hide. Accompanied by flying blood energy, he was slashed more than a hundred times in an instant.

The Blood Demon's clones are created from the user's own blood and energy, so each clone has its own level of cultivation.

Correspondingly, the flying sword clones are also created from sword energy, so each sword has a portion of the power of the Seven Star Sword.

Bang~!

After a flash of sword light, with a muffled thud, the Blood Demon was sent flying and fell heavily to the ground.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

Having suffered another heavy blow, the Blood Demon not only did not restrain itself, but became even more ferocious, its face contorted in a mad roar.

"Watch out!"

Behind him, Zhang Jingqing whispered a reminder.

"Ah."

Li Kunshan nodded, becoming extremely focused.

Even without Zhang Jingqing's reminder, he could tell that the health bar was down to less than one-tenth and the person was about to turn red.

It is both the final moment of the boss battle and the most dangerous time.

"Roar~!"

As he pondered, another roar erupted, and the Blood Demon sprang up.

It's like bouncing up without any physical movement, like a compressed ball suddenly bouncing into the air.

Huh~!

The next moment, like a balloon being inflated, the Blood Demon's size rapidly expanded.

In the blink of an eye, he had transformed into a giant over a hundred feet tall!
Everyone looked up as if gazing at a mountain peak, and felt an immense sense of oppression.

"I want you all to die!"

The Blood Demon roared like thunder, then raised his foot to stomp on Li Kunshan.

"I……"

Li Kunshan felt bitter. Even if he had three hundred swords, they were nothing more than three hundred toothpicks to the Blood Demon of 'Law of Heaven and Earth'. What threat could they pose?

"Um?!"

But just then, a series of forces came from within.

Then, Master Ge, the wandering monk, Uncle Jiu, and others all reached out to help Li Kunshan.

"Boy, with us behind you, what is there to fear from a mere Blood Demon?"

Zhang Jingqing smiled; her voice was soft but exceptionally reliable.

"Ok!"

Li Kunshan nodded emphatically, took a deep breath, and focused all his energy on controlling his sword.

Buzz~!

The three hundred swords merged into one again, and with a hum, the sword light surged, instantly transforming into a giant sword a hundred meters long!
"cut!"

With a roar, Li Kunshan swung his greatsword at the Blood Demon.

Swish~!

A giant sword flashed, seemingly splitting the night sky in two.

"Roar~!"

The Blood Demon, who had already raised one foot, suddenly stopped, tilted his head back, and let out a painful roar.

Boom~!

The next moment, the Blood Demon's enormous body was split in half at the waist, and its upper body crashed down like a severed mountain peak.

"Cut it off!"

Seeing this, everyone was filled with excitement.

With a single sword strike, the Blood Demon was cleaved in two at the waist!
"You despicable, stinking Taoist priests! I'm going to kill you all!"

But then, accompanied by an angry roar, the two halves of the Blood Demon's body continued to charge at Li Kunshan.

Even a centipede with a hundred legs does not die easily, let alone a blood demon born from the evil thoughts of heaven and earth. Even if its body is split in two, it would not be enough to kill it.

"Since that's the case, then let's cut again! Cut! Cut! Cut!"

Li Kunshan's expression was grim. He let out a cold shout and swung his greatsword once more.

Swish swish swish~!

The next moment, under Li Kunshan's control, the giant sword flew up and down, and the dense sword light was dazzling, all of which slashed at the two huge parts of the blood demon's body.

In an instant, the two bodies froze in mid-air, as if time had stood still.

"Hoo~!"

After unleashing hundreds of sword strikes in one go, Li Kunshan finally stopped and exhaled a long breath.

Buzz~!

At the same time, with a buzzing sound, the giant sword disappeared, returning to its original three-foot-long shape.

It seemed to have exhausted all its strength and plummeted straight down from the sky.

Li Kunshan quickly reached out and caught the Seven Star Sword.

Ding ding~!

The Seven Star Sword was still trembling in his hand.

Click~!

The next moment, with a sharp, soft sound, a crack appeared, extending from the hilt to the tip of the sword.

This Seven Star Sword is modeled after the lotus pod derived from the Seven Star Crescent Blade, and is crafted from seven treasures imbued with the fortune of the Qing Dynasty, as well as a real dragon.

Unfortunately, it was not the real Seven Star Crescent Blade.

Therefore, although it is possible to kill the Blood Demon, the power it can withstand is limited.

Just now, with the combined efforts of Zhang Jingqing and other experts, the Seven Star Sword had already exceeded its capacity.

"You've accomplished your mission and are now retiring. Thank you for your hard work."

Seeing the seven stars on the sword instantly dim and lose their luster, Li Kunshan sighed softly.

It's a pity that such a divine weapon can only be used once, but fortunately, it has already fulfilled its mission.

"Roar~ No~!"

At that moment, a scream filled with terror and resentment rang out.

Bang~!

The Blood Demon's enormous body burst open like a punctured balloon.

Boom~!

Immediately afterwards, countless evil energies surged out, instantly blotting out the sky and the sun.

"Did you kill it?"

"They must have been killed."

The crowd involuntarily retreated, reaching out to shield themselves from the rising wind, watching the sky and earth change color, each one filled with astonishment and uncertainty.

"Killed."

It wasn't until Li Kunshan spoke that his voice became exceptionally firm.

He had just received a system notification.

[Defeat the Blood Demon to obtain the Blood River (Gold) affix!]

The Blood Demon has finally been defeated.

"How can this be!"

On the other side, watching the Blood Demon being destroyed, Lei Gang's face was filled with disbelief.

But he had no time to think about it and turned to run away. As an accomplice of the Blood Demon, how could he expect to get away with it?

"Where to go!"

Unfortunately, a soft shout rang out, and a figure blocked Lei Gang's path—it was a True Immortal of the Righteous One Sect.

"Let me go!"

Lei Gang looked panicked and tried to escape by force.

Bang~!

Unfortunately, his cultivation level was far too low, and with a muffled thud, he was slapped to the ground by the old Taoist priest.

"Humph."

Seeing this, Li Kunshan sneered, thinking that karma had finally caught up with him.

Boom~!

Just as everyone was celebrating the defeat of the Blood Demon, a sudden roar came from afar.

The next moment, the enormous evil energy emanating from the Blood Demon began to surge wildly!
