Bitter Realm: My Feet Step Through the Flames of War

"Dao Wu Wang Gu swordsmanship master, Nine-Headed Dao Kui, why did you commit such a heinous act and harm your fellow disciples?"

"Words are not enough, let's fight."

"Alright, Atsushigawa will now seek guidance from Kujukuro Kujira. Sword Crossing Atsushigawa!"

A sword flashed, its cold edge gleaming. Just as the two brushed past each other, a sword tip struck Atsushigawa's throat, and his head rolled off.

"Tsk, your thirty years are too shallow."

"And what about your thirty years?"

Nine-Headed Daoist felt a chill run down his spine. He turned around abruptly and saw a group of indifferent-looking people appearing like ghosts behind him.

"Huh? Are you human or demon?"

Luo Hou called out to Ya Shao: "Xiao Jian Dun, you are in charge of this person. The rest of you search the tower."

"Yes."

Tan Wuyu glanced around and found no trace of Jianzi Xianji.

“Martial Lord, Daowu King Valley is a vast area. Why don’t we split up and I go elsewhere to find Jianzi?”

"Your body is not yet fully recovered, so Cang will accompany you on your search."

"Thank you, Master Xian."

Knowing that the two of them did not want to get too involved in the conflict between Tiandu and Daowuwang Valley, Luo Hou waved his hand in agreement.

Next, Qinghai Chao and Jishanhu, Henwufeng and Xiao Liuguang, and Le Xunyuan followed Luo Hou, forming three groups and climbing the tower on their own.

Jian Feidao followed Henwufeng blankly; he was going to find Huo Feixiong.

Along the way, all I saw were fallen corpses, rivers of blood, a truly gruesome sight.

"Master, these wounds seem to be from Taoist techniques. Could it be that the Heavenly Evil Clan did not kill us?"

"The Taoist sect has always been fond of internal strife."

Luo Hou recalled the past events of the Northern and Southern Daoist sects. Juan Shoutian had fought his way from the north to the south, single-handedly annihilating ten thousand Daoist cultivators, which was far more ruthless than any external enemy.

"Internal strife, hmm."

Luo Hou glanced at the pensive Le Xunyuan. This child was probably thinking of Huan Tianchang and believed that his uncle had harmed his father because of the position of sect leader.

At this moment, on the top floor of the Boundary Tower, Xu Wugui, one of the three cultivators, had been driven to the brink of despair by Huo Feixiong.

On one side, the Dao is waning and the demons are rising, rendering Qingfeng powerless; on the other side, the stars shine upon him, and the cold blade is merciless.

"Imperial Blade Through the Ages - Endless Sun!"

With each strike a close call, the Daoist priest, his body ripped open and his arm severed, gripped his three-foot-long sword, risking his life to defend the dignity of the Daoist sect.

"The green hills are faintly visible, appearing and disappearing in the mist!"

Xu Wugui's white hair flew high as he used up his last bit of true energy, roared, and slashed at the Blade Emperor.

"You've held out for so long, which truly surprises me. But this is the end. Blade without testing, blade without reach, concealed strike, one blow, critical hit!"

The final strike was devoid of any particular style, revealing only unparalleled, domineering power and terrifying, ruthless killing intent. It was swift, unpredictable, and forceful, slashing down with overwhelming force.

Just as Xu Wugui was about to die, a powerful palm strike slammed into the domineering blade in Huo Feixiong's hand.

"Who's courting death!"

Huo Feixiong, who was filled with murderous intent, was interrupted midway and became furious. He swung his sword back at the one who had attacked him.

"Hehe, I'm here to take your life."

The one who made the move was none other than Yue Xunyuan. Like a newborn calf unafraid of a tiger, facing the King of Blades who exuded evil aura, Yue Xunyuan secretly activated his Divine Scroll and took another strike.

boom!

With a burst of sword energy and a surge of palm force, Yue Xunyuan staggered backward, nearly falling to the ground.

But he steadied himself instantly, then used the new moves he had learned from the "Demon Buddha's Holy Scripture," unleashing his inner force as he struck down with his palm.

"Great Brahma Palm!"

Luo Hou watched with a smile as Le Xunyuan and Huo Feixiong fought. Although his foundation was weak, Le Xunyuan used the skills of Bingjia Wujing, Brahma, Yan Da, and Mu Shen with ease and flexibility.

Whether using demonic or Buddhist techniques, palm strikes or fists, they employed a variety of tricks, and for a time, they were evenly matched with Huo Feixiong.

"All things in the universe are ultimately corrupted!"

"A single breath can move mountains and rivers!"

"The Way of Shepherding Heaven: The Divine Steps Leave No Trace!"

"A wave that rips through the universe!"

"The fury will not cease!"

This was Le Xunyuan's first real battle against a true master. The more he fought, the more excited he became, and the more comfortable he was with the opponent. He unleashed a series of unparalleled moves on Huo Feixiong.

Huo Feixiong was furious. Although the knife in his hand was powerful and domineering, Yue Xunyuan's moves were endless and his mind was extremely clever. He would retreat at the slightest touch. After dozens of moves, it was still difficult to determine the winner.

Xu Wugui, having narrowly escaped death, sat in a corner panting heavily, staring dumbfounded as Le Xunyuan unleashed a variety of amazing techniques.

"This is Yi Ye Shu's signature move. Could he be Yi Ye Shu's apprentice?"

Just then, a demonic glint flashed in Huo Feixiong's eyes. Star power and evil energy merged, and the surrounding world changed, transforming into a black demonic prison.

Chapter 391 Exorcising Demons and Refining Evil, Using the Divine Heavenly Guardian

Huo Feixiong, Lang Chenxingyao, and the power of the evil god merged to unleash a world-destroying strike.

At that moment, Henwufeng, Xiao Liuguang, and Jian Feidao also stepped onto the top of the Boundary Tower.

The situation is not good.

Huo Feixiong won, and Le Xun died far away.

Huo Feixiong was defeated, and the evil spirit Lang Chenxingyao will infect Henwufeng or Xiao Liuguang.

In an instant, the chanting of Buddhist hymns filled the air, golden light rained down, and a vast Buddhist aura transformed into twelve Buddha statues with different expressions, forming four sacred walls.

As Luo Hou released the Twelve Heavenly Guardians, he grabbed Yue Xunyuan with one hand and threw him behind him, while with the other hand he unleashed a gentle palm wind, blocking the three members of Henwu Peak at the entrance.

"You guys stand back."

"It's the Sword Emperor!"

Jian Feidao was about to step forward, but Xiao Liuguang stopped him.

The Buddha's light continued to expand, soon enveloping the entire Boundary Tower, connecting the universe, and covering mountains and marshes, as if to purify the entire human world.

The twelve holy Buddhas grew larger and larger, some bowing their heads and joining their palms, some smiling with flowers in hand, and some glaring like fierce Vajras, all releasing boundless Buddhist power. They contained not the slightest killing intent, yet were enough to crush all things in the world.

The power of the stars, the filth of the evil god, and the domineering blade melted away like ice and left no trace like snow in the vast Buddha light.

"I?"

The Buddha's power suppressed the evil spirit, and Huo Feixiong regained his clarity, painfully watching everything before him.

"Blade Emperor, I am Fei Dao!"

"Swords and blades, I..."

Under the sanctification of the twelve divine guardians, the evil spirits could no longer escape.

Luo Hou said calmly, "If you have any last words, say them as soon as possible."

Huo Feixiong reached out, but could not touch Jian Feidao, nor could he touch the years when they walked side by side. Only fragments of memories drifted away in the martial world.

"Swords and blades, Yu Xin is waiting for me... No matter how many partings and deaths there may be in the future, I hope you will bravely persevere on this path."

Jian Feidao, tears streaming down his face, cried out in anguish, "Knife Emperor!"

Human life is impermanent, like the gathering and scattering of clouds.

Luo Hou lightly punched Huo Feixiong in the chest.

puff!

Before he could close his eyes, the evil spirit dissipated, and the twin stars immediately left his body, flying towards Henwu Peak and Xiao Liuguang.

Suddenly, a burst of Buddhist light shone forth, the lotus blossoms were dazzling, and twelve beams of holy light locked onto the soul, burning with a hissing sound.

"what!"

The evil spirit let out a resentful howl in the air, but in its frantic struggle, it was gradually refined by the Buddha's light.

The strange phenomenon of the Boundary Tower quickly shocked the entire Dao Martial King Valley.

Tan Wuyu and Cang walked to Hanmei Weiyang. Just as they were about to turn towards Yuyu Palace, they saw the sky filled with Buddhist energy and the world chanting Buddhist hymns, and they couldn't help but look up in astonishment.

"This is the power of Buddha? How can it be so powerful!"

"Rahu inherited the Buddha Emperor's twelve divine guardians, whose power is no less than Brahma's eight dragon god fires."

Cang recounted to Tan Wuyu the battle in which Rahu killed the two Buddhas and Mara.

"It seems I should thank the person who sent me to Tiandu. Otherwise, if I had accidentally run into a Martial Lord, I wouldn't have been as lucky as last time."

Cang laughed and said, "Don't worry, at most I'll have to protect your body one more time."

"That's going too far."

"Haha, I'd like to see what Jianzi Xianji's expression is like now."

"Hmm? There's the sound of fighting ahead."

The two quickened their pace and turned into a stone forest, where they saw a Taoist priest fighting a young Taoist nun under the fluttering white plum blossoms.

Daozi's Xingyi Quan was powerful and unstoppable, with each move flowing endlessly. Although the Daoist nun exerted all her strength, she could not break through Daozi's blockade.

"Su Jinghan, get out of the way!"

"Yu Danxia, ​​dreaming of finding Tai Shi! You can rest in peace beneath these plum blossoms and snow."

Su Jinghan was the second of the Four Fierce Banner Masters.

Yu Danxia is a female Taoist cultivator of the Zunchi Hall and also a subordinate of the Hall Master Tai Shi.

The two fought to the death, showing no mercy in their attacks. After several moves, Yu Danxia was no match for them.
