Uncle Nine: Scattering beans to create soldiers? I'm using plants and trees to create soldiers.

A loud bang came from the main hall at the back!

The two heavy stone palace doors shot into the sky, tumbled in mid-air, and crashed to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, a dark figure burst out from the depths of the dark hall!

With each step a person takes, a deep pit is created in the ground.

The bluestone bricks shattered inch by inch, and a thick, green aura of death gushed outwards from the cracks in the ground.

In just a few breaths, the dark figure had already crossed dozens of feet and landed a few feet away!

With a loud bang, the solid ground collapsed several inches deeper!

The person slowly raised their head, stretched out their body, and cracked their bones.

Lin Xuan sized up the newcomer's physique, raising his eyebrows slightly.

This guy was well over two meters tall, with a dry, yellow braid tied behind his head, and his physique was excessively robust!

He was shirtless, his bulging muscles covered with a dense array of eerie runes.

A viscous green aura of death swirled around him, and his eyes were a deep crimson!

The next moment, an overwhelming and ferocious aura suddenly erupted, pressing down on Uncle Nine and Lin Xuan!

Lin Xuan's expression shifted slightly. Such powerful corpse aura! This big guy is at least a master of the Human Master realm, but he doesn't know exactly which minor realm he's at!

Uncle Nine, standing in front, also sensed the true nature of the newcomer.

A perfect teacher!

The thought flashed through his mind, and Uncle Nine's sleeves moved without wind, his pure Yang Dao Qi spreading out naturally.

However, he did not use his full strength, only revealing the aura fluctuations of a perfected Master.

Sensing the cultivation level displayed by Uncle Nine, the Corpse Demon Sect Master's scarlet eyes narrowed slightly, and his deep, hoarse voice echoed through the valley.

"No wonder you two stinking Taoist priests dared to cause trouble at my Corpse Demon Sect!"

"Turns out he's a Taoist priest who has achieved perfect enlightenment as a teacher!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a cruel sneer appeared on the face of the Corpse Demon Sect Master.

"However, do you really think that's all the resources my Corpse Demon Sect has?!"

After saying that, he quickly formed hand seals and placed his fingers horizontally in front of his chest, letting out a low roar.

"Bronze-armored Corpse, come here!"

As a strange magical energy fluctuation spread out, the corpse-raising ground not far away suddenly reacted!

With a muffled thud, a heavy black wooden coffin lid shot straight into the sky, followed by a deafening, ferocious roar of a corpse!

A burly zombie, clad in dark bronze armor and with equally bulging muscles, hopped out of the corpse-raising ground!

The ground trembled repeatedly, and the bronze-armored corpse leaped to the side of the Corpse King Sect Master in a few bounds!

After standing still, the bronze-armored corpse roared to the sky again, and the foul and violent corpse energy turned into a hurricane that swept outwards, but was completely blocked by the golden light on Uncle Nine's body!

The sect leader of the Corpse Demon Sect glanced at the bronze-armored corpse beside him, then his gaze returned to Uncle Nine.

He grinned, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth, his face full of mockery.

"Two against one!"

"Two masters at the peak of their cultivation are facing off against one of you, you Taoist priest. How much of a chance do you think you have?!"

Faced with this threat, Uncle Nine remained expressionless, lightly twirling his peach wood sword.

"Whether we have a chance of winning or not, we'll only know after the fight," Uncle Nine said calmly. "Besides, I think your Corpse Demon Sect isn't training corpses, but tongues, isn't it? Is the leader of a sect only good at empty talk?!"

Although he was blunt with his words, Uncle Nine was secretly shaking his head and sighing in his heart.

The current sect leader of the Corpse Demon Sect is quite powerful, and the bronze-armored corpse next to him has also been refined to a certain degree.

But... the pressure from this person and the corpse was far too little!

He had originally planned to hone his swordsmanship through intense battles and break through the barrier of the late-stage Earth Master in one fell swoop, but now it seems that it might be a bit risky!

Or should we suppress our cultivation level a little more to give the opponent some room to maneuver?

Just as Uncle Nine was pondering to himself, the Corpse Demon Sect Master on the other side was completely enraged by those words!

"Those Taoist priests are all stubborn as mules! They dare to boast even when they're about to die!" roared the Corpse Demon Sect Master. "Today, I'll show you what you're made of!"

boom!

The green corpse aura surrounding the Corpse Lord Sect Master suddenly surged three feet, and his right foot slammed heavily into the ground, cracking it open. His massive body, accompanied by a fierce wind, charged toward Uncle Nine!

At the same time, the bronze-armored corpse next to him bent his knees slightly, sprang up with a bang, and flanked from the side, swinging his bronze-like claws straight for Uncle Nine's ribs!

Seeing this, Uncle Nine flicked his wrist, shaking off the bloodstains on the peach wood blade, and took a step forward to meet the attack head-on!

Seeing his master start fighting, Lin Xuan, who was not far away, immediately ordered the two spear-wielding soldiers to retreat to a recessed area in the stone wall in a corner.

Life-or-death battles at the peak of the Human Master level are rare to see. I can take this opportunity to observe and maybe even learn something from it!

In the arena, Uncle Nine, wielding a peach wood sword, strolled leisurely amidst the frenzied attacks of a man and a corpse.

The seemingly fragile peach wood sword transformed into a dense golden light in his hand, dancing with such power that water could not penetrate it!

No matter how fierce the Corpse King Sect Master's punches were, or how cunning the Copper Armor Corpse's claws were, Uncle Nine dealt with them with ease!

In the center of the battlefield, golden light flashed, and the aura of corpses crisscrossed!

The dull, rumbling sounds of collisions continued, the bluestone ground beneath our feet cracked inch by inch, the surrounding trees snapped one after another, and even half of the stone house next to us collapsed with a roar from the aftershocks!

The more they fought, the more horrified the Corpse Demon Sect Master became!

He and his natal bronze-armored corpse were of one mind, and the combined combat power they unleashed was already infinitely close to the early stage of the Earth Master!

However, when faced with this old Taoist priest with a single eyebrow, they not only failed to gain any advantage, but were also subtly suppressed by his sword aura!

How could this Taoist priest's skills be so profound?!

In a fit of shock and rage, a ruthless glint flashed in the eyes of the Corpse Demon Sect Master.

If they were in an open area outside, with one of them and the corpse tied together, they might not have been able to subdue this old Taoist priest today!

But this is the headquarters of the Corpse Demon Sect, which has been operating for many years!

The dense corpse energy covering the mountains and plains not only constantly depletes the pure Yang Dao Qi of this Taoist priest, but also continuously replenishes his and the copper-armored corpse's losses!

He refused to believe that he could outlast an outsider by dragging the battle into a protracted war!

Thinking of this, the Corpse Demon Sect Master suddenly bit his tongue, spitting a mouthful of blood onto the rune on his chest, and his attack instantly became even more ferocious and ruthless!

In a secluded corner, Lin Xuan leaned against the stone wall, with two serpent spear soldiers standing on his left and right.

He stared intently at Uncle Nine, who was dodging and weaving in the arena, nodding frequently as he watched.

So this is how basic sword strikes can be connected! Master's hand, footwork and footwork are truly exquisite!

There wasn't a single superfluous flourish; it was purely about responding to each move as it came, demonstrating that Maoshan swordsmanship had been completely integrated into one's instincts!

Master is indeed a master. Even with his cultivation suppressed, his combat awareness is still top-notch!

Just as Lin Xuan was engrossed in reading, the system's crisp notification sounds suddenly rang in his mind.

[The host has gained insights from observing the battle; proficiency in "True Martial Demon-Slaying Technique" +10!]

[The host has gained insights from observing the battle; proficiency in "True Martial Demon-Slaying Technique" +12!]

......

Hearing the continuous notification sounds, Lin Xuan's eyes lit up, and he looked at them even more intently!

Meanwhile, behind a dense canopy of trees on the outskirts of the valley.

The Li family's First Elder and Second Elder stealthily approached the vicinity, coldly observing the battle below through the swirling poisonous miasma.

Sensing the unwavering yet sharp sword aura emanating from Uncle Nine in the arena, the Second Elder frowned and couldn't help but speak.

"No wonder the third and fourth brothers both fell victim to this man!"

"This person may appear to be only at the peak of the Human Master realm, but his cultivation is terrifyingly solid. Even the Corpse Demon Sect Master and his natal bronze-armored corpse couldn't suppress him. He's truly extraordinary!"

The First Elder stared coldly at Uncle Nine's retreating figure, then slowly nodded. "He does have some skill, but unless he reaches the mid-stage of a Geomancer, he's doomed tonight!"

"Big brother, when should we make our move?" The second elder licked his lips, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

The elder tucked his hands into his sleeves and coldly uttered a sentence.

"No rush. Let's wait until the Corpse Demon Sect Master has exhausted his strength before we brothers strike with full force!"

Upon hearing this, the Second Elder grinned maliciously and nodded in agreement.

However, just as the two had finished their calculations, Uncle Nine, who was wielding his sword to block the bronze-armored corpse, suddenly had a slight change in expression!

Taking advantage of the moment he turned around, Uncle Nine glanced discreetly at the dense forest in the distance.

There was someone hiding in the shadows?!

Although the fleeting sense of being spied on was extremely subtle, it still couldn't escape his keen spiritual perception as a mid-stage geomancer!

Judging from their location, they shouldn't be remnants of the Corpse Demon Sect. Could it be... a cultivator who just happened to be passing by?

Uncle Nine frowned almost imperceptibly, his gaze sweeping over his beloved disciple who was engrossed in watching something in the corner.

Forget it, whether the guy hiding in the shadows is just passing by or has other plans, with Ah Xuan by our side, we absolutely cannot leave any potential dangers behind!

I'm not going to play with these two anymore, I need to end this fight quickly!
