The world of martial arts, the immortal swordsman in the mortal realm.

Chapter 186, 201: Hunting Time! They'll all die today!
The "Five Types of Demons and Five Bright Envoys" of the Great Ming Sect are of similar status to the elders of the Yin Gui Sect. Their martial arts skills may be slightly inferior to those of the Yin Gui Sect elders, but they are by no means incompetent. In the martial arts world, they are formidable figures who can make ordinary masters tremble with fear.

Unexpectedly, a "Five-Type Demon" was killed on the spot before he could even react to dodge or block the long spear that fell from the sky!

This terrifying scene caused both "Evil Wind" Yang Mo and Water Maiden to tremble violently, their eyes filled with horror.

Even the "Great Venerable" Xu Kaishan's pupils dilated violently, his heart filled with shock, and he exclaimed in a trembling voice:

"Who?"

call……

The wind was blowing.

A tall figure in a black robe with wide sleeves and a black silk belt with cloud patterns descended from the sky, like a light feather, and slowly floated down to Wanwan's side.

Upon seeing the figure in black robes, Xu Kaishan's pupils dilated again:
"Lu Chen?"

Lu Chen remained silent, merely observing Xu Kaishan as if he were observing a lamb to the slaughter.

Wanwan then reached out and took Lu Chen's arm, snuggling close to him affectionately, and said with a grin:
"Xu Kaishan, the Great Ming Zunjiao, may very well vanish into thin air today!"

"Master Lu."

Xu Kaishan ignored Wanwan, his eyes fixed on Lu Chen, and slowly said:
"I believe I have never offended Young Master Lu. I wonder why Young Master Lu is targeting my Great Ming Sect?"

"Is Your Majesty feigning ignorance?"

Wanwan smiled and said:
"Do I need to remind you? Qu Ao's three disciples."

Xu Kaishan spoke sincerely, his eyes earnest:

"Although Qu Ao's disciple voluntarily joined our sect, he is still under observation and has not yet been formally incorporated into the sect. Who knew that those three, eager for revenge, would steal our sect's secret medicine and then turn around to seek revenge on Young Master Lu... This matter was not instigated by our sect. We hope Young Master Lu will understand."

Wanwan covered her mouth and chuckled softly:

"I've always heard that Xu Kaishan, the leader of the Northern Horse Gang, is smooth-talking and eloquent. Seeing him today, I can confirm that his reputation is well-deserved. He's a master at twisting the truth with his sharp tongue. It's a pity that Chang Shumou and the other two were used by you and then framed for stealing secret medicine. We even cooperated with them before. I really feel sorry for them."

Xu Kaishan snorted softly, staring only at Lu Chen:

"The demoness Yin Gui is adept at sowing discord and spreading rumors; her infamy is legendary! Young Master Lu, do not fall for her tricks..."

Lu Chen's lips curled up into a sneer.

"Your Excellency, please use all your skills."

He finally spoke:
"Perhaps there is still a chance to preserve a thread of incense for the Great Ming Sect."

Xu Kaishan's eye twitched slightly, and his voice turned cold:

"Is Young Master Lu determined to become an enemy of our Great Ming Venerable Sect?"

"Your Excellency is mistaken."

Lu Chen spoke calmly:

"I'm not an enemy. I just want to... wipe you out."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his palm and grabbed at the air with his five fingers. The black iron spear that had pinned Jiu Lingzhi to the ground immediately rose up from Jiu Lingzhi's body and flew towards Lu Chen in a whirl.

During its whirlwind flight, it shook off the blood that stained the gun barrel, leaving it completely clean on the ground.

Snapped!
Lu Chen gripped the gun barrel and threw it.

Bang!
Amidst a thunderous explosion, the Xuan Tie Spear, unleashing a blast of air, spun rapidly like a dragon emerging from the sea, hurtling towards Xu Kaishan.

After throwing the gun, Lu Chen didn't even glance at Xu Kaishan. He moved swiftly and appeared in front of "Evil Wind" Yang Mo, pointing his fingers like a sword and thrusting it forward.

It was just an ordinary, straightforward thrust of the sword, but suddenly a clear sword cry rang in Yang Mo's mind. His mind was slightly shaken by the sound of the sword cry, and a white light flashed before his eyes, leaving his vision blank.

When he came to his senses.

Lu Chen's sword finger had already struck his brow. The sword energy only left a faint red mark on his brow, but it blasted a hole the size of a teacup open in the back of his head, and blood splattered like rain!
Lu Chen made his move at the same time.

In the darkness outside the stadium, several more figures leaped out and flew over like lightning.

The leader was a woman with a full, round face, a plump figure, elaborate and gorgeous clothes, and a noble demeanor.

It was none other than "Good Mother" Shafang!
She had originally led her men to lie in ambush on the outskirts, both to block Wanwan's breakout and to deal with any possible reinforcements. However, she did not expect that the reinforcements would arrive unexpectedly, rendering her blockade ineffective.

At this point, they had no choice but to show themselves face-to-face and gather their forces to attack, lest Lu Chen defeat them one by one.

However, she was still a step too late.

No sooner had he appeared than "Evil Wind" Yang Mo was killed by Lu Chen with a single finger strike.

Before she could even lead her people into the arena, a sword rang out, and a petite and agile figure descended from the sky, swooping down towards Shanmu Shafang and the others.

It was Dugu Feng.

As she swooped down, the "Dongming Sword" in Dugu Feng's hand flashed with a blue light, and the sharp sword energy with its chilling freezing aura was as dense as a rainstorm, enveloping Sha Fang and the five Ming Envoys she led, including Huo Cha Nu, Ming Li, and the five types of demons, including "An Qi" Zhou Lao Fang and "Xi Huo" Kuo Jie.

Dugu Feng, alone with only a sword, could not possibly take on Shanmu Shafang and four elder-level masters of the Great Ming Zun Sect.

However, due to her obstruction, Shafang and the others inevitably slowed down their pace of entering the venue.

In that brief moment of respite, Lu Chen's figure swayed again, leaving behind an afterimage. His true form had already appeared in front of Shui Chanu, his sword finger pointing out mercilessly, aiming straight for Shui Chanu's brow.

As the sword finger cleaved through the air, Shui Chanu felt the space around her collapsing under its force. Infinite power pressed down from all directions, almost suffocating her and leaving her with no room to dodge.

Ah!
Faced with this unavoidable sword strike, Shui Chan Nu let out a fierce roar filled with resentment, mustered all her strength, and thrust her sword straight at Lu Chen's heart.

However, under the pressure of invisible forces from all directions, her sword strike, which she thought was a full-force burst and as fast as lightning, was actually incredibly slow. As soon as the sword light appeared, Lu Chen's fingertip had already touched her brow. In the end, her desperate sword strike did not even touch Lu Chen's clothes.

puff!
With a muffled thud, another red mark appeared between her eyebrows, and then her head exploded with a crack. Shui Chanu's eyes, filled with shock and resentment, quickly dimmed, and she fell backward to the ground.

The battlefield is not far away.

Lian Rou and Li Xiuning stood side by side on the top of a tall building, watching Lu Chen swiftly kill the two men, their eyes filled with shock.

When they arrived, they overheard the conversation between Wanwan, Lu Chen, and Xu Kaishan, and learned that Lu Chen was facing the "Great Venerable" of the Great Ming Venerable Sect, as well as the five types of demons and the five Ming Envoys.

Lian Rou, in particular, had a deeper understanding of the Great Ming Venerable Sect's strength because of its considerable influence among the Uyghurs in the Western Regions. She knew that any one of the Five Envoys or the Five Demons could fight her to a standstill, and some of the more powerful ones were even stronger than her. The mysterious "Great Venerable" of the Great Ming Venerable Sect was a figure even her father was quite wary of.

But now.

Those masters among the Five Demons and Five Envoys, whose martial arts were comparable to or even stronger than hers, were as fragile as lambs in front of Lu Chen, and were ruthlessly crushed by him.

As for the masked, black-clad Grandmaster, he was not able to defend himself comfortably against the Xuan Tie Spear thrown by Lu Chen.

As the Spear of the Rending Horse exploded with a deafening roar, sending out milky white shockwaves, it hurtled towards him like a black dragon stirring up the sea. Without hesitation, Xu Kaishan pushed forward with both palms. With the surge of energy, the air in front of him instantly solidified and hardened, like an invisible, solid wall standing in front of him.

However, the momentum of the Spear of Rift only paused for a moment before the solid, invisible wall of energy shattered. The Spear of Rift continued its whirlwind attack, its power only slightly diminished compared to when Lu Chen threw it.

As Xu Kaishan dodged and retreated, he unleashed a barrage of punches, each punch forming a pillar of energy that struck the spear one after another. After unleashing more than ten punches in one go, the Xuan Tie Spear was finally sent flying into the air.

Before he could catch his breath, a dark shadow flashed before his eyes, and Lu Chen appeared in front of him like a ghost, unleashing ten sword strikes in an instant, stabbing at Xu Kaishan with astonishing speed.

Xu Kaishan was shocked to realize that while he was defending against the flying and bombarding attacks of the Xuan Tie spear, Yang Mo and Shui Chanu had already died one after another!

the other side.

Dugu Feng intercepted Shanmu Shafang and the other four alone. Although she managed to delay them for a moment, she was immediately at a disadvantage when the five launched a counterattack together.

In particular, Sha Fang wielded a two-foot-long silver rod that resembled more of an ornament than a weapon. With a swift tap, she unleashed a barrage of sharp, piercing arrows that could penetrate stone and gold. These arrows either blocked Dugu Feng's movements or targeted her weaknesses, forcing Dugu Feng into perilous situations.

Fortunately, Wanwan arrived with her sword at this moment. Relying on the tacit understanding she had developed with Dugu Feng through daily practice, she joined forces with the enemy and managed to withstand the siege of Sha Fang and her five companions.

However, Sha Fang's martial arts skills were only slightly inferior to those of Empress Zhu Yuyan. Huo Cha Nu, Ming Li, Zhou Lao Fang, and Kuo Jie were all elder-level experts. Even with Du Gu Feng and Wan Wan's martial arts skills and their tacit cooperation, they could only barely hold on.

On the rooftop, seeing that Dugu Feng and Wanwan seemed to be struggling, Li Xiuning drew her long sword, ready to come to their rescue.

Lian Rou grabbed her arm, her gaze fixed intently on the scene, and said:
"Wait! Lu Chen is enjoying the hunt; those people are his prey!"

"What?" Li Xiuning was taken aback.

Lian Rou's eyes lit up, she licked her red lips, and her voice was filled with excitement:
"Just watch, all the people of the Great Ming Venerable Sect will die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Great Venerable seemed to be involuntarily moving closer to the battle group of the Good Mother, under Lu Chen's influence.

When the two sides were within three zhang of each other, Lu Chen, who was fighting fiercely with the Great Venerable, suddenly used an extremely strange movement technique. His figure seemed to split into several people in an instant, and then a storm of sword energy swept across the sky, actually encircling Shanmu Shafang, Huo Cha Nu and the other three people into the range of his sword energy!
Dugu Feng and Wanwan, who were originally surrounded by the five members of the Shanmu Shafang group, suddenly lost their opponents and were even pushed out of the battle.

Lu Chen once again witnessed the miraculous battle outside Tianlong Temple, where he single-handedly "divided and surrounded" the five old monks of Tianlong Temple.

This time, however, he "surrounded" six masters from the Great Ming Sect, any one of whom, if placed in the Tianlong World, could sweep away the five old monks of Tianlong Temple.

In particular, the Great Venerable Xu Kaishan's martial arts are comparable to those of the Empress Yin. His "Mastery of the Roots of All Laws" technique also has all sorts of incredible mysteries. He can even turn the invisible air into a copper wall and an iron wall, which is both offensive and defensive.

The strange weapon "Jade Freedom" used by the good mother Sha Fang, along with her unique skill "Freedom Dismantle," is also an original and unique skill.

But Lu Chen managed to trap the six people all by himself.

Under the pressure of his strange, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes hidden, sometimes visible, like a ghostly shadow or a figure moving without end, Grandmaster Xu Kaishan and the others, even though they were close to their companions, all felt a strange sensation as if they were separated into six independent spaces.

Lu Chen's swordsmanship was nothing short of divine.

With a raised eyebrow, a sword aura shot out from the corner of his eyebrow; with a sharpened gaze, another sword aura flew out from the Jingming acupoint and other acupoints around his eyes.

With every gesture, sword energy surges forth; sword energy can be suddenly unleashed from every acupoint in front of and behind the body.

Furthermore, the sword energy is not straightforward.

Instead, it can bend in mid-air and even change direction several times, making its attack trajectory unpredictable and impossible to defend against.

The qi swords he unleashed were like soft swords and soft whips, bending, winding, whipping, and looping, capable of anything. The various unbelievable changes even made the Great Venerable Xu Kaishan feel his scalp tingle and bewilderment.

"First!"

Lian Rou, who was staring intently at the battle, suddenly spoke.

Before the words were even finished, Huo Cha Nu, one of the "Five Envoys," had a sudden epiphany, collapsed to the ground, and died on the spot before she could even let out a scream.

However, his crown pierced by a sword aura that flew horizontally, abruptly refracted the sky, and then descended from the air.

"Two now!"

Lian Rou let out another soft cry, and Kuo Jie immediately shut down his fire. He was struck on the back of his neck by a sword aura that circled around the back of his head, causing his cervical spine to break instantly. He collapsed to the ground without uttering a sound.

"The third……"

Mingli, one of the five Ming envoys, suddenly lost his head and fell to the ground. His hands flailed wildly for a moment, and then his headless body crashed to the ground.

"the fourth!"

Lian Rou's voice was already trembling slightly.

The "Dark Qi" of the Five Types of Demons caused a small hole to appear in Zhou Laofang's chest. He staggered backward, fell to the ground, and never woke up again.

Following Yang Mo and Shui Chanu, four more martial arts masters whose skills were comparable to or even surpassed Lian Rou's have died one after another.

Lian Rou put herself in that shoes. If she were on that battlefield, she would probably have lost her life without even realizing it, just like the members of the Great Ming Sect.

Lu Chen, who had easily killed four people, remained calm and composed, showing no sign of excitement or bloodlust.

Watching Lu Chen's calm and focused silent killing, Lian Rou felt a tingling sensation on her scalp, as if an electric current was spreading from the top of her head to her tailbone, making her whole body tingle and tremble.

Seeing the high-ranking members of the sect die one after another, the Great Venerable and the Good Mother were so shocked that they were on the verge of death, their eyes wide with horror.

They had overestimated Lu Chen's martial arts skills as much as possible and were as cautious as possible, never considering personally dealing with Lu Chen.

Previously, they were merely using the three of them, Changshu and Mou, to test the waters. Afterward, they planned to spread rumors and guide the experts of the Demonic Sect to deal with Lu Chen, in order to eliminate Lu Chen, the biggest variable.

To everyone's surprise, Lu Chen actually came looking for him.

Even now, Grandmaster Xu Kaishan still can't figure out how his true identity was exposed.

He had used the identity of "Xu Kaishan, the leader of the Beima Gang" for many years, and no one had ever associated him with the "Great Venerable" of the Great Ming Venerable Sect.

How did Lu Chen find out?
