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

Chapter 196, 211: The God of Slaughter Descends! Unstoppable!

"Lu Chen, even if you truly have a body cast in bronze and iron, you will be reduced to scrap metal today!"

Chao Gongcuo was full of vigor, his white beard flowing, and he was practicing the "Seven Kill Fist" with great skill. Each punch was rhythmic and cheerful, like the drumbeats of a festival.

Old Chao was unaware of the hidden meaning behind the "killing calamity" and thought that he, Old Chao, should be credited for the greatest achievement in today's siege.

They believed that it was because of his tireless lobbying and his still somewhat respectable old face that they were able to persuade the various factions of the Demonic Sect, who were wary of each other and had their own differences, to put aside their prejudices and cooperate. Now that the siege was in place, they were naturally extremely pleased with themselves.

In his view, the lineup that besieged Lu Chen today would make even the three grandmasters turn tail and run. Even the Evil King Shi Zhixuan, who was best at taking on multiple opponents, would choose to leave. Anyone who dared to stay and fight to the death would surely die.

No matter how strong Lu Chen is, can he possibly be stronger than the three Grandmasters?
"Is it?"

Hearing Chao Gongcuo's smug laughter, Lu Chen's lips curled up slightly, his eyes shone, and he was beaming with pride.

Among the eighteen, the weakest was a first-rate master with a good reputation in the martial arts world, while the strongest three, Zhao Deyan, Xi Ying, and Chao Gongcuo, were also among the best masters in the world.

This is a batch of high-quality calamity energy!
After the harvest, the great achievement of "strengthening muscles and bones" is right before our eyes!
His true energy could also rise to a level comparable to that of a Grandmaster in one go.

Their spiritual cultivation will also advance by leaps and bounds, perhaps even reaching the stage where they can erase memories.

He was going to enjoy this feast to his heart's content!

bang bang bang bang...

Amidst a dense barrage of exploding energy, Chao Gongcuo and his men split into three waves of six, surrounding the enemy from all sides and launching a coordinated, layered attack.

Those who weren't on the offensive didn't slack off either. They either sought opportunities on the periphery to unleash various forms of aerial power, or leaped into the air to swoop down and attack. They all firmly believed that even if Lu Chen was made of iron, he would be ground into iron slag.

Lu Chen, on the other hand, disregarded his true energy and unleashed his sword energy at will. Sword winds howled around him, force fields swirled around him, and sword energy surged wildly.

Streams of increasingly slender sword energy flew back and forth within the sword wind force field. The sword wind force field, which covered a space of seven zhang and enveloped all the attackers, was gradually filled with sword energy as thin as hair and as nimble as a snake!

Chao Gongcuo and his men, who originally thought they were surrounding Lu Chen, suddenly discovered that they were gradually being surrounded by Lu Chen's sword energy as the battle progressed!
Even formidable fighters like Zhao Deyan, Xi Ying, and Chao Gongcuo could only switch from offense to defense to deal with the chaotic sword energy flying everywhere.

"Don't panic! He's squandering his true energy like this, he won't last long! Protect yourself first!"

Chao Gongcuo shouted in a deep voice, encouraging everyone.

however.

We need to be able to hold it!

Fu Zhen, one of the "Twin Fiends of Changbai," was wielding his spear and axe to defend against the increasingly dense and sensitive wispy sword energy when suddenly a figure flashed before his eyes. Before he could react, a sword energy as thin as a hair easily bypassed his spear and axe, pierced through his protective true energy, and gently wrapped around his neck.

chap!
With a soft thud, before Fu Zhen could even register a look of pain and resentment on his face, his head fell to the ground, his eyes still filled with confusion and helplessness until his death.

"Big brother!"

Seeing his brother's head fall to the ground, Fu Yan cried out in alarm. But in the next instant, while Lu Chen's afterimage was still on Fu Zhen's side, his real body had already flashed in front of him. Another sword aura shot out, and Fu Yan instantly followed in his brother's footsteps, his head rolling down with a thud.

When Lu Chen eats, he likes to eat the less desirable parts first.

This way, each subsequent bite will be a better experience than the last, creating a sense of increasing pleasure.

The same is true at this moment.

Having effortlessly and instantly killed the Fu brothers, Lu Chen was about to confront the two remaining members of the Great Ming Sect when a petite Turkic beauty let out a sharp cry:
"You dared to kill Ba Feng Han... Die!"

With a sharp whistle, the curved blade, like a cold moon, slashed down towards Lu Chen with chilling light.

who are you?
Lu Chen glanced curiously at the Turkic beauty who was quite skilled in martial arts, raised his hand and grabbed the scimitar in his palm. With a flick of his fingers, the scimitar broke in two with a clang. With a backhand slap, the broken half of the scimitar pierced through the Turkic beauty's chest with a soft thud, going straight for her heart.

The Turkic beauty froze, her red lips slightly parted. She was about to stare intently at Lu Chen, wanting him to remember her hateful gaze and have nightmares about her for the rest of his life, when Lu Chen had already disappeared before her eyes.

"..."

The Turkic beauty, disciple of the Demon General Zhao Deyan, and former lover of Ba Feng Han, Badier, filled with mixed feelings of love and hate for Ba Feng Han, knelt on the ground with her eyes wide open and died.

As Badeel breathed her last, Mei Xun, the leader of the South China Sea Sect, known as "Golden Spear," had his spear broken, a bloody hole piercing his chest. Without a word, he died on the spot.

Lu Chen then flung out the broken spear he had seized. The spearhead exploded in the air with a bang, sending out waves of milky white air, like a dragon stirring up the sea, and instantly flew to "Poison Water" Xinnaya.

Xinya held her sword horizontally to her chest, attempting to block, but the longsword, infused with true energy, shattered upon contact. The broken spear, without hesitation, pierced her chest, piercing her from both front and back.

Lu Chen, who had just thrown the broken spear, appeared like a ghost next to Rong Jiaojiao, the last of the Five Ming Envoys. He first flicked away Rong Jiaojiao's desperately thrusting sword with a finger, and then a sword aura flew out, beheading Rong Jiaojiao.

Under the influence of the sword wind force field.

Lu Chen's figure flickered incessantly, appearing in front of him one moment and behind him the next. Those first-rate masters who were quite famous in the martial arts world were almost no match for Lu Chen.

Mei Tian, ​​the second-best fighter of the South China Sea Sect, who had fought Dugu Feng many times, was pierced through the brow by Lu Chen's sword after just one exchange.

The Turkic expert Kang Qiaoli had his head chopped off by Lu Chen's sword in a single exchange.

Shangguan Long was like a madman, his hair disheveled, wildly waving his dragon-headed cane, his arms turning a purplish-black color, already pushing his demonic power to its limit.

However, Lu Chen still managed to break through his defenses with overwhelming force, and a sword aura severed his head.

In just a dozen or so breaths.

The eighteen people who were besieging Lu Chen have been reduced to nine!
Such efficient and terrifying killings were beyond everyone's imagination.

Under normal circumstances, a person under siege is constantly attacked from all sides, making it difficult to inflict fatal damage on a specific target.

Because the besieging crowd can shield each other and use the strategy of attacking Wei to relieve Zhao, when you launch a strong attack on someone, the others will attack you from behind, sides, and even above. Do you defend or not?
The person you attack will have allies on either side to help defend them. Even if they are injured, they can retreat to recuperate and recover.

But Lu Chen completely overturned what should have been a normal situation.

When Lu Chen disregarded the consumption of his true energy and spread the dense, hair-thin sword energy throughout the sword wind force field, everyone could only take care of themselves first.

Lu Chen's elusive and unpredictable movements, as if he were walking through another dimension, gave them the illusion that it wasn't them attacking Lu Chen, but rather that Lu Chen was "dividing and surrounding" them.

It seemed that everyone present could only face Lu Chen alone!

That's why.

Starting with Fu Zhen, Lu Chen killed all nine of Shangguan Long's top fighters one by one. The others were too busy to provide cover or rescue, let alone attempt a diversionary tactic.

Such a horrific and inhuman massacre not only shocked Chao Gongcuo and others, but also made Shi Feixuan, Li Xiuning, and Lian Rou, who were watching the battle closely, shudder.

But that's just the beginning.

Lu Chen had only tasted the appetizer.

Now comes the main course. "Old Chao, save me!"

When Lu Chen appeared before Bi Shouxuan like a ghost, this elder of the Demonic Sect, who was of a higher seniority than Zhu Yuyan and usually had a handsome and dashing appearance, instantly lost all his composure, his face contorted in horror as he cried out.

Chao Gongcuo roared, his five fingers spread apart, and then suddenly clenched into a fist.

With a grasp, the air several feet in front of him seemed to be drawn into his five fingers. Then, he threw a punch, an extremely unstable and violent fist force containing several kinds of power, accompanied by the sound of rolling thunder, blasting towards Lu Chen.

Zhao Deyan's two ever-changing diamond spears, Xi Ying's wispy energy, Bi Chen's sword energy, and various fist and palm strikes from You Niaojuan and others all bombarded Lu Chen.

For members of the Demonic Sect, the word "unity" was originally a joke.

The members of the Demonic Sect are all selfish, ruthless, and cold-blooded. It is considered friendly if they do not scheme against each other or harm one another.

But now, the experts from the Demonic Sect, who belong to a different faction than Bi Shouxuan, are actually joining forces to rescue him.

This is not solely due to the influence of "robbery energy".

They also knew that if they let Lu Chen defeat them one by one, they would suffer the same fate as the nine people who had been killed by Lu Chen before!
however.

Lu Chen was already expending all his sword energy, so how could he allow everyone to attack him?

Countless strands of sword energy shot out, instantly detonating Chao Gongcuo's ferocious fist force in mid-air, sending shockwaves raging in all directions.

Zhao Deyan's two ever-changing diamond spears and Xi Ying's wispy energy were also blocked and intercepted by the sword energy.

The other five attempted a coordinated attack from a distance, but their efforts were not only intercepted, but they were also countered by the sword energy and forced back into individual battles.

As for Bi Shou Xuan.

Lu Chen only used three sword strikes.

The first sword strike sent the Xuan Tong Xiao flying.

The second sword sliced ​​off his forearm at the elbow as he tried to block, leaving him wide open.

The third sword pierced his throat.

Ignoring Zhu Yuyan's advice, he joined forces with Chao Gongcuo to orchestrate the attack on Bi Shouxuan, and was killed on the spot.

The Yin Gui Sect has lost another elder!
Wanwan said she liked it.

Anyway, she couldn't stand any of the elders of the Yin Gui Sect. Their deaths would make it easier for her to take over the Yin Gui Sect in the future. In the original timeline, after Zhu Yuyan's death, every single one of the elders of the Yin Gui Sect stood against Wanwan.

As the dignified successor of the Yin Empress, and the only peerless genius since the First Ancestor to have cultivated the "Heavenly Demon Art" to the eighteenth level, she has become a lonely figure, which shows how bad her interpersonal relationships are within the Yin Gui Sect.

At this moment, with Bi Shouxuan dead, the four members of the Evil Extreme Sect immediately had the idea of ​​retreating. Although the killing tribulation energy could cloud people's minds and make them lose their senses, when faced with death, the instinct for survival would still make people a little more clear-headed.

"Let's go, let's go!"

Having just exchanged a blow with Lu Chen, and been sent flying, coughing up blood, You Niaojuan, who had been mostly passive during the attack, cried out in surprise:
"This kid is inhuman! If we keep fighting him, we'll all die!"

"Can't leave!"

Chao Gongcuo roared:
"This kid's martial arts have improved at an inhuman speed. If we don't kill him this time, he'll be hunting us down next time! With his lightness skill, who can escape his pursuit?"

Zhao Deyan also said in a deep voice:
"Indeed! This kid is too strange. Today may be our only chance to kill him!"

Old Zhou sighed and said in a muffled voice:
"An opportunity? I don't see it."

Xi Ying gritted his teeth, his face turning purple:
"His true energy is definitely not inexhaustible. By squandering it like this and unleashing so many sword energies to attack so many of us, I don't believe he can hold out for long! In a few more moments, he will definitely run out of true energy, and then it will be his death day!"

"Say what you will, I, Old You, am not going to listen!"

Yu Niaojuan leaped away, intending to withdraw from the battlefield.

however.

Did I give you permission to leave?

Lu Chen said calmly, his palm skin turning red. He grabbed at You Niaojuan from a distance, and You Niaojuan felt his blood freeze and a strange feeling of weakness arise. At the same time, the air around him turned into an iron plate, as if an invisible hand was pulling him down from the air!
"..."

Yu Niaojuan first wanted to cry but couldn't, then gritted his teeth:

"You won't let Master You leave? Then I'll fight you to the death!"

Yu Niao, disregarding his injuries, went berserk and fought desperately.

Under Lu Chen's pressure, Ding Jiuzhong, Zhou Laotan, and Jin Huanzhen actually moved closer to You Niaojuan and joined forces with him.

The four disciples of the Evil Sect not only schemed and betrayed each other, but also wished everyone else dead. Given the chance, they would not hesitate to kill their fellow disciples.

But at this moment, the four of them joined forces without reservation, even their auras were connected.

When the four people's energy combined, a strange reaction occurred. The four people seemed to become one, turning into a strange person with four heads and eight arms. Their energy also expanded dramatically, and their strength suddenly surpassed that of Zhao Deyan and Xi Ying!
Lu Chen raised an eyebrow:
"There's such a combination technique? Excellent!"

boom!
The air around him trembled, transforming into a roaring sword wind. He unleashed his movement technique to its limit, creating afterimages that were difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion. It was as if several Lu Chens had appeared in the arena. He fought against Zhao Deyan, Xi Ying, Pi Chen, and Chao Gongcuo while also contending with the four disciples of the Evil Extreme.

This bizarre movement technique, which had already transcended the realm of martial arts, gave everyone the illusion that they were the only ones Lu Chen was targeting, as if everyone else was just going through the motions, while they alone were facing Lu Chen's immense pressure.

"Old Chao, Old Xi, the demonic Taoist, You Niao'er, what are you all doing?"

As Zhao Deyan roared and his ever-changing diamond spear danced wildly in the air, he unleashed his trump card, the "Xuanwu's Lament" from the "Eighteen Claws of Returning Soul." One claw charged forward and opened furiously, like a surging torrent, while the other claw bent and twisted, heavy and slow, as steady as a mountain.

With a slow and steady claw strike for defense and a swift and furious claw strike for offense, Zhao Deyan combined offense and defense in one move, actually blocking Lu Chen's three sword strikes and returning a claw strike, forcing Lu Chen to take a step back.

But Zhao Deyan was not happy at all, because he was surrounded by countless wisps of sword energy, and he had to be on guard against the sword energy attacks at all times.

"Old Xi, when the hell did you teach him the 'Purple Qi Heavenly Net'?"

With Zhao Deyan's keen eyesight, he could see that Lu Chen's increasingly agile and sharp sword energy had some mysterious connection with Xi Ying's "Purple Qi Heavenly Net". While cursing, he used another move, "Azure Dragon Jealous of Its Master". His claws first retracted to his chest, then coiled out, and the energy was like an angry dragon, swirling and snarling towards Lu Chen.

"The Demon General's kung fu is not bad."

Lu Chen commented calmly, then unleashed a "Yin Yang Two Qi Sword," which blasted away the furious dragon-like energy with a deafening boom.

Zhao Deyan thought everyone else was slacking off while he was the only one fighting hard, unaware that others felt the same way.

Xi Ying, Bi Chen, Chao Gongcuo, and even the four evil disciples whose qi was combined into one, all felt that only they were fighting fiercely, while the others were sitting on the sidelines watching the tigers fight. They were just carrying out the traditional style of the Holy Sect: you go to your death and I get the benefits!
