I just want to kill you all, or be killed by you all.

The blood-haired youth had obtained a supreme immortal treasure, but it seemed that he had encountered some problems in refining it; otherwise, he wouldn't have been hunted down so relentlessly.

Li Yang sacrificed himself to force Ming Lin Tong Yao to flee in a sorry state, but he himself was also at a disadvantage.

The two have one thing in common—they both possess opportunities that would tempt someone to kill them.

Leaving aside the immortal treasures for the moment, Li Yang firmly holds the top spot on the kill list.

Kill him, and all the killing points on his body will belong to him, and he can obtain the inheritance of the killing path.

Sang Yan and the other five peerless warriors dared not provoke Mu Zangfeng and Qianyang Shengzi, who were in their prime, and were also unhappy that Ning Xi chose Li Yang.

After all, he is still a young prodigy, and it's inevitable that he will act on his emotions.

Mu Zangfeng had a reason to kill Li Yang;

Qianyang Saint Son coveted Ning Xi.

They unified their goals, and in an instant, supernatural powers and secret techniques overwhelmed Li Yang and the blood-haired youth.

"You go first!"

Li Yang shouted at the blood-haired youth, and his phoenix sword swept out, stirring up a storm of sword energy.

He took the initiative to cover the rear, giving the blood-haired youth a chance to escape.

Thank you!

The blood-haired youth's voice was hoarse, as if he was trying his best to restrain himself.

Li Yang was thrown away by the aftershock, desperately protecting Ning Xi.

"burst!"

Ning Xi shouted, forming hand seals and detonating a barrage of one-time destruction talismans.

The woman in his arms was no mere ornament; as Li Yang made his move, she was also preparing to escape.

After all, the immortal treasures have not yet fallen into the hands of evil spirits, so there is no need to stay here and fight to the death against multiple opponents.

There were too many talismans, like fallen leaves swept away by the autumn wind, without a clear target.

"BOOM—!!!"

The deafening roar of destruction forced even Mu Zangfeng to retreat.

"She attacked this entire world, causing the void to collapse and creating chaos for her escape!" The Holy Son of Qianyang's eyes revealed admiration. "This woman is incredibly capable; I just wonder if I'll ever be able to do the same!"

"Stop talking nonsense and chase after them!" Mu Zangfeng's eyes were gloomy.

For him, the reality was that the treasure had fallen into the hands of the enemy.

The area detonated by the talisman cracked and could not be repaired. It was corroded by the materialized killing intent, leaving a gap.

But the connection wasn't to the outside world, but to a dark red void, with countless dangerous spatial wind blades shooting out.

In this realm, these spatial wind blades are enhanced, and they could probably even easily sever the physical body of a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

That's why they dare not traverse the void; it's no different from gambling with their lives.

Li Yang dared, but the Holy Son of Qianyang wouldn't let him have his way.

"Destroy!"

"Destroy!"

"Destroy!"

Qianyang Saint Son repeatedly pointed out with his finger, crushing the void around Li Yang.

Otherwise, if Li Yang were to use spatial teleportation techniques repeatedly, he could quickly shake them off.

Sang Yan and his group of five also pursued relentlessly, unleashing a series of supernatural and secret techniques from behind, regardless of whether they would harm Ning Xi.

Since Ning Xi has already made her choice, there is no need for them to pursue it further; they should try their best to create opportunities for themselves.

This was one of the rare times Li Yang was in a sorry state, and he could only grit his teeth and persevere.

Besides the wound inflicted by Mu Zangfeng's sword, there were also remnants of various spells on his back, leaving his flesh and bones mangled and shattered.

Ning Xi, however, was completely unharmed, showing no signs of being shaken at all.

"Senior brother, I've already thrown away all my talismans. Are you really going to risk our lives to protect him?" Ning Xi turned around and asked, her beautiful eyes blinking.

Ahead, the blood-haired youth seemed to be still trying his best to integrate the ferocious treasure into his own body.

Hearing this, he fell silent.

Even if Li Yang abandons him and runs away, he can't blame him.

Because from beginning to end, no one owed me anything.

"I need at least half a day to fully integrate."

Li Yang asked, "What happens after the fusion? Can we kill them all?"

That's what he's most concerned about.

The reason this world is so dangerous is that intangible, malevolent mist.

If the fusion would grant him overwhelming power, he would fight to the death to make the other party fuse with him.

In this way, Mu Zangfeng will surely die, and his mission will be accomplished.

Moreover, with Mu Zangfeng dead, he will also receive the inheritance of the Killing Dao from his position at the top of the Killing Ranking, so he doesn't have to worry about being surpassed.

"Hmm—I'm afraid that won't work." The blood-haired youth explained, "This treasure was transformed from the weapon of slaughter that ancient immortal possessed in his lifetime. Over the long years, it absorbed the baleful energy of the Void Realm and underwent a certain transformation."

You can think of it as a moving source of malevolent energy that can greatly enhance one's own attack. Even if an ordinary cultivator refines it, they can obtain an attack that rivals the best in the same realm.

However, initially, one can only transform the malevolent energy within oneself; later, this energy can be accumulated through personal slaughter or absorbed by finding extremely dangerous places.

Upon hearing this, Li Yang was completely stunned.

This treasure is even an upgrade item!

He had always believed that as long as he could successfully refine it, he would gain unparalleled strength.

What's the point of working so hard then?!

However, an even worse situation occurred—

"That priceless treasure is with him!"

Three demonic cultivators, their bodies wreathed in raging demonic flames, appeared ahead of their escape route.

Two men and one woman, all of whom were the best in Kanzhou.

They immediately locked their gaze on the blood-haired youth, their eyes filled with greed.

Moreover, they seemed to recognize the blood-haired youth, and immediately summoned their magical weapons, assuming a fighting stance.

"It's you guys!"

Upon seeing the three, the blood-haired youth's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and a murderous intent surged forth.

"Fellow Daoist, don't be impulsive!" one of the demon-armored men wielding a halberd quickly spoke up. "Your situation is not optimistic. Why don't you cooperate with us, repel the pursuers behind you first, and then we can fight for it? What do you say?"

He is a clever man who prioritizes profit.

Li Yang and the blood-haired youth were at a clear disadvantage. If they attacked the two of them again, the fruits of victory would inevitably fall into the hands of Mu Zangfeng and Qianyang Saint, the two strongest individuals.

But if they help Li Yang and the blood-haired youth defeat the enemy, their only competitor will be the exhausted Li Yang.

"Cooperate with you? Impossible!" The blood-haired youth gritted his teeth, clearly harboring a deep grudge against the other party.

"Tu Jiuzhou, we weren't talking to you." The female demon cultivator spoke up, looking at Li Yang. "Qin Feng, if you die, the Tianyuan Dynasty will undoubtedly be defeated. The power accumulated by the Jiuyou Dynasty far surpasses that of the Tianyuan Dynasty. If it weren't for you leading the Tiangang Demon-Slaying Camp, the entire Luxu Realm would have become a paradise for demons."

Your only chance of survival now is to cooperate with us.

I am Zi Yuan, the demoness from Demon Ancestor Mountain in Kanzhou. I am a pure demon cultivator, I do not practice evil arts, you can trust me.

Li Yang only just realized that the blood-haired youth was "Tu Jiuzhou," currently ranked fourth on the kill list, a name that was very dangerous.

"Get out if you don't want to die!"

Mu Zangfeng, who was pursuing from behind, spoke in a cold voice, sharp as a sword blade.

"I remember you are also from the Nine Netherworld Dynasty camp. If we let Qin Feng live, he will kill you sooner or later!" Qianyang Holy Son frowned.

They absolutely do not want to see any changes.

Because if this trend continues, they will soon be able to wear down Li Yang.

Now they are all waiting, waiting for the moment when they can seize control of Li Yang's head.

"Heh~ I admit you're strong, but that's only because you're relying on the rules of this secret realm. Outside, it's hard to say who'd threaten whom!" Zi Yuan sneered, looking at Li Yang with growing impatience. "We don't have the patience to waste time with you. Either agree, or we'll join forces with them now and kill you both!"

In her opinion, Li Yang would definitely agree.

As for slaughtering Jiuzhou, wasn't that just wiping out his entire clan right in front of him?

They don't even understand the principle that possessing the bloodline of ancient immortals is a crime.

Tu Jiuzhou looked at Li Yang but did not speak.

His eyes were very deep, as if he had made a decision in his heart.

He did not continue to fuse with the malevolent treasure, but simply waited quietly for Li Yang's answer.

An undeniable sword intent emanated from him, revealing that he was also a sword cultivator.

Moreover, this sword intent was too strong, so strong that even Li Yang and Mu Zangfeng paled in comparison!

Despite the aggressive behavior of the three demonic cultivators, Li Yang remained calm throughout.

There was no hesitation or wavering in his eyes.

Faced with Zi Yuan's threat, he instead revealed a mocking smile:

"Have you misunderstood something?"

"What do you mean?" Zi Yuan had a bad feeling.

"Three lowly demonic cultivators dare to stand so brazenly before me. Is all the slaughter I've committed in the Slaughtering Void Realm not enough to demonstrate my zero tolerance for you?!"

Before he finished speaking, the Phoenix Sword in his hand erupted with an unprecedented sword cry.

An endless crimson sword intent erupted, tearing apart the surrounding void.

He raised the Phoenix Sword high, his face gradually losing its color.

"Senior brother, don't be impulsive!" Ning Xi's beautiful eyes were full of worry.

"Oh no! He's burning his own life force! He's overdrawing his physical potential, he's gone mad!" Zi Yuan's expression changed drastically as she sensed a deadly threat emanating from Li Yang.

Tu Jiuzhou was stunned.

"Are you... worth it?"

"Stop talking nonsense and run! If you can't escape this time, I can't save you!" Li Yang looked at the three demonic cultivators, grinned maliciously, and said, "I'll kill you all!!!"

The most severe father of the demon.

No matter the occasion, eliminating evil and protecting the righteous must always be the highest priority.

Tu Jiuzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

The corners of his mouth curled up.

Instead of running, he charged towards Li Yang.

He raised his hand slightly, and the malevolent treasure gathered in his palm.

At this moment, Tu Jiuzhou's concealed aura spread.

The sword intent emanating from him was not his own, but rather came from that malevolent treasure.

At this moment, Li Yang finally understood why the Void Realm had all sorts of systems except for the Dao of the Sword.

Because the ultimate weapon of the ancient immortal sword path, the fierce and malevolent mist, is precisely this!

Without hesitation, Tu Jiuzhou slammed it into Li Yang's body and summoned two blood-red blades, which was the path he cultivated.

"Although it recognizes me because of my bloodline, I am a sword cultivator and cannot bear its Dao, so the fusion is extremely slow."

This time, it was his turn to stand in front of Li Yang—

"Don't die! My homeland is waiting for you to protect it!"
