Chapter 380 The Demon Lord is Really Hard to Kill
Chapter 380 The Demon Lord is Really Hard to Kill
Since Zhang Qi left, the world has not seen such a dazzling sword light for a long time.
Everyone thought that Sheng Huai'an was only at the Nascent Soul stage and would need many more years to reach Zhang Qi's level. Many people were hoping that the mysterious and unpredictable Qinghe Sword Sect leader could recreate the style of that sword immortal.
But today, Sheng Huai'an gave everyone an answer.
The sword light of the Qinghe Sword Sect has never been extinguished.
Despite the Flying Lord's ability to make his words come true, Sheng Huai'an still unleashed a sword strike.
This sword light was worthy of the high regard that Lord Feilian held for him. When the sword light that filled the heavens and earth dissipated, Lord Feilian's body, which had been broken in two, fell from the sky.
His animal skin cloak had been cut in half, and his antler hat had also been split open, revealing the face of an unusually young boy.
However, this face had already been split in two by Sheng Huai'an's sword.
The two halves of the body, splattering large amounts of blood, fell from the sky.
Everyone stared at Sheng Huai'an in shock. Just now, even with their combined attack, they hadn't managed to inflict the slightest damage on Lord Feilian, yet Sheng Huai'an had cleaved him in two with a single sword strike.
Especially Tie Shengrong, who also uses a sword and is also in the Void Returning Realm. Just now, he unleashed more than a dozen sword energies at Lord Feilian. Although he did not use his full strength, they were easily blocked by the other party, which shows that his protective magic weapon is extremely powerful.
Tie Shengrong used to think that Zhang Qi was the most powerful, not the swordsmanship of the Qinghe Sword Sect. He thought that the swordsmanship of his Fenxiang Sect was only slightly inferior to that of the Qinghe Sword Sect.
Only today did I realize that my lifelong sword practice is no match for a junior who has reached the Nascent Soul stage.
The surprised and admiring gazes of the crowd all fell on Sheng Huai'an, but they did not make him happy in the slightest.
Because Sheng Huai'an felt that his sword strike had hit empty air.
The sword light sliced through the animal hide cloak and the physical body of Lord Feilian, but did not harm his soul.
Or rather, when Sheng Huai'an broke through the limitation of words becoming law and finally drew his sword, Lord Feilian did not hesitate to abandon his physical body and choose to escape with his soul.
The Demonic Sect has many ways to save their lives, so it's no surprise that Master Feilian was able to escape.
But Sheng Huai'an did not expect the other party to be so resolute, choosing the final means without even a moment's hesitation.
If his soul is not damaged, Fei Lian can possess another body and be reborn. As long as he has some time, it will not be difficult for him to recover. At most, he will only lose this magic weapon.
In a dark, remote underground cave, thousands of miles away, thirty young corpses were frozen solid.
Suddenly, a blood-red light appeared, and the seal on one of the corpses automatically broke. The child, who looked to be about ten years old, opened his eyes and crawled out of the stone coffin.
This person is none other than Fei Lian after he possessed another body.
"Qinghe Sword Sect..."
Lord Feilian uttered these words in a childish voice, then shook his head.
No one knows how much psychological trauma Zhang Qi left on the Demonic Sect back then, to the point that even a dignified Venerable Master would flee at the mere sight of the sword light.
Fei Lian didn't want to gamble. He wasn't sure if Sheng Huai'an had as much skill as Zhang Qi. What if this sword strike also severed his soul?
Even the Demon Lord Wujiu couldn't withstand that sword strike, so why would Feilian gamble with his own life?
In retrospect, his decision was absolutely correct.
Even if Sheng Huai'an's sword strike couldn't kill him, it would still inflict a wound that would be difficult to heal, which would be a great loss.
Feilian didn't care about a mere magic weapon, and as for his physical body, he cared even less.
Feilian couldn't even remember how many years he had lived. He had possessed many bodies before, and the body he had just abandoned wasn't the original one. He had gotten used to it after throwing away so many bodies.
Taking out a new animal skin cloak and deer antler hat from beside the stone coffin, Lord Feilian's body rapidly grew larger. After putting on the clothes, he returned to his original appearance, and his aura remained unchanged.
Once he recovered, Lord Feilian adjusted his deer-antler hat and muttered to himself, "Tiger's accomplice, I took a sword for you and even lost my life. You owe me a huge favor. However, if you don't suffer a loss this time, you probably won't survive."
The Venerable Feilian emerged from the cave where the corpse was hidden and quickly vanished into the dark depths of the earth.
The battle at Yunlu Immortal Sect was still fierce. Sheng Huai'an killed Feilian Venerable with a single sword strike, but he also suffered quite serious injuries.
His right hand was shattered, the bones broken and the flesh mangled.
It's impossible to resist the power of Lord Feilian's words without paying a price.
Tie Shengrong flew to Sheng Huai'an's side, intending to give him a bottle of healing pills, since the pills from the Fenxiang Sect were the best in the world. But when he got closer, he saw Sheng Huai'an take out a bottle of pills and swallow them himself; it was the Fenxiang Sect's most famous Wanling Baosheng Pill.
Tie Shengrong's hands froze; all he, the sect leader, could offer now was just an ordinary Baosheng Pill.
Clearly, this treasure was given to Sheng Huai'an by Chen Ye. In the world today, only the Yellow Spring Sect still possesses pills of this grade.
Fortunately, this was a battlefield, so Tie Shengrong didn't have to be embarrassed for long. Everyone turned around and flew towards the Tiger Lord.
Yes, there's another demon here. Let's kill him first.
Tie Shengrong also turned and flew towards the Tiger Servant Lord, as if he were using this mountain-sized demon as a target for his venting. He swung his sword and unleashed a hundred-foot-long sword light, aiming for the Tiger Servant's head.
Although Tie Shengrong's swordsmanship was not top-notch, he was still a very capable cultivator at the Returning Void Realm. This sword strike was enough to distract Tiger Lord and force him to defend.
A wisp of the gray mist from the million vengeful spirits split off and transformed into a long blade in the Tiger Venerable Lord's hand, slashing towards the sword light.
The two collided, causing cracks to appear in space. Taking advantage of the opportunity, True Man Wuyun activated the array of the Yunlu Immortal Sect, and countless rays of light shot out from Yunzhong City, piercing through the huge body of the Tiger-like Lord.
However, just like those evil spirits, this mountain-sized body was merely an illusion, and after being pierced by countless spells, it dissipated into gray mist.
After losing their giant form, the million demons seemed to lose control and flew wildly in all directions.
The cultivators, including Tie Shengrong, were also entangled by the changgui (a type of evil spirit). Like rocks constantly being washed by a gray torrent, they remained unmoved but could not stop these changgui.
These ghosts are immortal and indestructible. Whether you cut them with a sword, burn them with fire, strike them with lightning, or freeze them with ice, you can only break their form into gray mist, but they can recover in a short while.
In this way, they can only consume each other.
Regardless of the principle behind the immortality of this vengeful spirit, the repeated disintegration and re-condensation inevitably consume spiritual energy. Currently, the vengeful spirit lord is alone, while the righteous path is filled with experts, and this is the home ground of the Yunlu Immortal Sect, so naturally they are not afraid to wear him down to the end.
Fei Lian has already had his physical body severed, and Hu Chang must also be spared. Even if it takes ten days or half a month to fight, the righteous cultivators will accompany him to the end.
Just when everyone thought that Tiger Lord was going to wage a war of attrition, a scream rang in Tie Shengrong's ears.
Tie Shengrong turned his head and saw that his brother Tie Xianrong had a large hole in his chest, and his heart had been ripped out alive. Severely injured, Tie Xianrong fell directly from the sky.
Tie Shengrong rushed to the rescue, but encountered a group of vengeful spirits blocking his way.
Just as he was about to swing his sword to get rid of it, he noticed that the appearance of one of the ghosts beside him had changed drastically, and it had turned into the appearance of the Tiger Ghost Lord.
The demon grinned maliciously and reached out to grab Tie Shengrong, about to seize the blade of his sword.
Tie Shengrong had not expected this change, but he was, after all, a cultivator at the Returning Void Realm. Spiritual energy surged from the edge of his sword, directly transforming into hundreds of sword energies that sliced open the Tiger Lord's palm.
However, it still couldn't hurt the opponent; it only sliced him back into gray mist.
Tie Shengrong disregarded everything else, broke through the blockade, flew to his brother's side, scooped him up, and fed him medicine to treat his injuries.
Fortunately, his brother was also a Nascent Soul cultivator, so even having his heart ripped out wasn't fatal. He survived, but he probably couldn't continue fighting.
Screams began to rise and fall as cultivators shrouded in gray mist in the sky were ambushed one by one.
A demon at the Void Returning Realm is hiding among the ghouls. You have no way of knowing which ghoul will transform into the tiger ghoul. Few people can withstand such a sneak attack.
Tie Shengrong frowned. If they couldn't break this demonic technique, they would only be wasting manpower.
The Demon Lord of Yinshan back then was also skilled at refining cougars. How did this Demon Lord die?
Oh, it seems he was injured by Zhang Qi's sword energy and then died at the hands of other demon lords.
Tie Shengrong turned to look at Sheng Huai'an, wondering if this young swordsman could still unleash another strike.
This may seem like asking too much, but right now the only way to break this evil spirit's spell is the Qinghe Sword Technique.
Having taken the Myriad Spirit Treasure Pill, he should recover in two or three hours at most. Then, all Sheng Huai'an needs to do is strike again... Just as he was thinking this, a sudden change occurred at the Yunlu Immortal Sect.
The once magnificent and imposing mountain-guarding formation suddenly flickered a few times before vanishing.
This sudden change left everyone stunned.
The Tiger Servant Lord was the same, but he reacted faster than others, and a million serpent ghosts rushed towards the Cloud City of the Cloud Peak Immortal Sect.
Previously, Cloud City was protected by an array, preventing the ghosts from entering. Now that Cloud Peak Immortal Sect has made such a mistake, what are we waiting for?
Opportunities in warfare are often fleeting; if you miss them, you lose them forever.
Relying on the fact that his cougar was immortal, the Tiger Lord charged forward without regard for whether the Cloud Peak Immortal Sect had set a trap.
The massive gray ghosts surged towards the magnificent city in the clouds like a tidal wave. After tens of thousands of ghosts entered, the protective array of the mountain finally lit up again, as if it really was just a mistake.
But the losses from this mistake were enormous. Tens of thousands of unkillable demons entered the city, enough to cause heavy losses to the Yunlu Immortal Sect.
This time, it's unknown how many people will suffer because of this.
Unless, the Yunlu Immortal Sect has a specific method to deal with these evil spirits.
Lord Hu Chang was very confident that the Yunlu Immortal Sect had no way to deal with it. This was the signature technique of the Yinshan Demon Lord back then, and over the past thousand years, Hu Chang had even improved the secret technique after much contemplation. Although the power of the Chang Ghost was not as great as it used to be, its ability to be immortal and indestructible was much stronger.
Previously affected by the Great Five Elements Heavenly Punishment Formation, his physical body mutated, but it couldn't actually harm the Tiger's accomplice's fundamental nature.
He simply wanted to conserve spiritual energy as much as possible, so as to teach this group of righteous people a more profound lesson.
This is also why he dared to force his way into the Yunlu Immortal Sect.
In the world today, the only one he fears is the Qinghe Sword Sect. When their swordsmanship is perfected, it doesn't just sever the physical body or the soul, but the very essence of existence.
It was as if a life had been erased from time and space; that's how the Demon Lord Wujiu died.
No matter how many variations you have, when your existence is erased, everything becomes meaningless.
Now that Zhang Qi is dead, and Sheng Huai'an's sword strike just now couldn't reach Zhang Qi's level, the Tiger Servant Lord felt completely at ease.
Just as he thought he had victory in his grasp, the Tiger Lord suddenly realized that he had lost a few of his cougars.
It wasn't scattered, it simply disappeared.
