Heroes Return

Meanwhile, Qige's classmates also launched an attack on the clones of Baphomet that surrounded them, and a battle broke out once again on the rooftop.

In the sky, Qige, having received enough of your knight's lance, also began to charge towards Baffomi with all his might.

Qige knew his sanity was fading, and that he might lose control of his body again in just a few seconds. So, in those few seconds of remaining rationality, the seven of them decided to do only one thing: unleash their full power.

Without holding back, he unleashed all his power in this powerful strike. Only by using the strongest attack of all the power he could muster could Qig hope to kill the demon before him.

As Qig unleashed his full power, he immediately launched an attack on the distant enemy. A massive amount of blue energy gathered in the lance in his hand, while hundreds of other lances, also imbued with immense power, charged towards the demon before him.

At some point, the powerful energy collided with the burning green flames released by Baphomet.

The green flames were instantly consumed, and at the same time, countless knight's lances were pierced into Baphomet's body.

"Hahaha!" Baphomet, who had been hit by Qig, let out a wild whisper: "That's right, that's it! That's the power! Hahaha! Although it's only a basic level of liberation! But you really are the most talented child of all my children."

As Baphomet laughed maniacally, his body was directly enveloped by Qig's blue energy, and a huge arrow-shaped energy beam then pierced through the airborne barrier in the sky.

The cracks in the barrier quickly repair themselves.

When the energy dissipated, only Chig remained in the sky, along with Baphomet, who had turned into a blue statue. Chig swung his energy knight's lance at Baphomet. Baphomet, now a blue crystal, vanished into thin air.

“That’s not right!” Harry looked up at the sky, which was still a sea of ​​red. “Why hasn’t the barrier disappeared? We’ve already defeated and destroyed Buff.”

Before he could finish speaking, a large hand grabbed him.

"Damn it! I forgot about these!" Harry exclaimed in a panic.

Meanwhile, the other students were also captured by those sheep-headed demons.

“I won’t be killed so easily.” Another goat-headed demon in a formal suit appeared in front of the group.

At this point, Qige did not make any obvious moves.

“So you’re completely under control now?” Baphomet looked up at Qig in the sky and said, “You think you’ve killed me, so you’ve relaxed your guard? Hahaha, but that’s even more interesting. I’ll just watch you kill your own comrades.”

At this moment, having lost his mind, Qige, just as Baphomet had said, raised his knight's lance towards the S-class students and Baphomet's clone on the rooftop.

"Personality Correction Fist!" Just when everyone was almost in despair, Lin Jie's voice appeared in the students' ears. The next moment, Qi Ge was punched in the face by the suddenly appearing Lin Jie, and he fell onto the rooftop. Then, to everyone's incredulous expression, Lin Jie landed next to Qi Ge and started kicking him repeatedly.

"Serves you right for being so cocky! Serves you right for being so cocky! Serves you right for being so cocky!" he shouted while kicking Lin Jie.

"Teacher! I'm awake! Really! Stop hitting me, teacher!" Qige started wailing after being kicked a few times by Lin Jie.

"Are you awake?" Lin Jie said, retracting his foot and then looking up at Bafumie, who was still in a daze. "Finally found you, you old rogue!"

Chapter 44

"You found him so quickly?" Baphomet looked at Lin Jie with some surprise. "Have you always used this method to bring him back to his senses?"

"What, is there a problem?" Lin Jie looked at Ba Fumie and said, "I told you, you'd better pray that I don't find you at all, otherwise today will be your death day."

As Lin Jie spoke, he walked towards Bafumie.

"Hahaha, human, do you really think you can stop me?" Baphomet laughed as he looked at Lin Jie. "Besides, all your students are in my hands now. Are you planning to abandon them?"

"Are you still resorting to the old-fashioned hostage threat?" Lin Jie said coldly. At this moment, although there was no power flowing around his body, there was a peculiar aura around him: "Using Dong Xue'er's life to threaten me and hurt my students. I'll give you ten seconds to say your last words."

As this eerie aura erupted, the tension around Lin Jie seemed to vibrate as if drawn by an invisible force. It's important to clarify here that this was merely an aura, not a release of actual power. Simply put, it was an aura affecting the mind, yet at this moment it seemed to materialize, causing even inanimate stones to tremble.

The entire island fell silent in that instant. All life on the island, whether human or monster, felt as if an invisible hand had gripped their hearts.

At this moment, the people in the shelter who were not yet under control felt a fear that came from their very souls, as if their hearts were being squeezed little by little. It was completely irrational and had no power to act on it, just like a fear that came from the depths of their souls.

Many people's legs went weak and they sat on the ground, some even wetting their pants.

Only one person present understood what this feeling was like, and that was Angela. Angela had experienced this terrifying feeling once before in H City; at that time, her face was flushed, and even breathing became extremely difficult.

She understood that Lin Jie was serious. Or rather, not that Lin Jie was serious, but that he was completely serious.

The feeling was incredibly complex, a mixture of excitement and fear. But Angela understood that this was precisely why she was so infatuated with that man; his power was the root of her irresistible fascination.

In front of the academy, Miyamoto Spicy Strips and the obsessive monster, who were being besieged, stopped in their tracks. The monsters and controlled people around them began to tremble at that moment.

The three henchmen were so terrified by this overwhelming pressure that they wet themselves.

Everyone else on the island was like this, not to mention Baphomet, who was facing Lin Jie and the student he had captured.

Lin Jie told him he had ten seconds, but for Baphomet and the students he controlled, those ten seconds felt like an eternity.

However, Baphomet was a seasoned demon who had seen the world, an existence that existed before the end of time. In just a few seconds, Baphomet used soul magic to shield himself from the fear originating from his own soul.

"What exactly are you?" Baphomet stared at Lin Jie in shock. "What is your purpose in existing in this world?"

"I am a human being, and my name is Lin Jie."

"Impossible! You absolutely cannot be human! There is absolutely no human being who could inspire fear in a demon! Not even a god!" Baphomet lost his composure at this moment: "What exactly are you?"

“I’ve already said, I’m a human.” Lin Jie said, drawing out an ancient sword that shimmered with white light.

The moment the ancient sword appeared, it trembled slightly, and the entire building vanished into nothingness.

"Are you willing to use me again?" A clear female voice appeared in Lin Jie's mind.

"There's no other way. It seems I've been infected by Thirteen recently. Today, I'll allow you to wake up," Lin Jie slowly replied in his mind.

As Lin Jie's voice echoed in his mind, two faint ancient characters, "Zhu Xian," slowly appeared on the ancient sword in his hand, which emitted a white glow.

"Apart from humans, the rest are up to you," Lin Jie said calmly to the sword in his hand in his mind.

"Hmph." As if to vent its emotions, the sword light trembled slightly. The first to be impacted was this red world; huge cracks appeared in the sky at this moment, and all the vegetation outside the cracks withered instantly.

When the sword comes out, the ground will be red for thousands of miles.

Not only plants and trees, but all life vanished along with them. The fertile land, which had been specially cultivated, was instantly transformed into barren wastelands where no crops could grow. At the same time, streams of energy, like life force, continuously converged into the ancient sword in Lin Jie's hand.

"You've finished saying your last words, haven't you?" Lin Jie said coldly, looking at Baffomi across from him.

Upon seeing the sword in Lin Jie's hand, Ba Fumie immediately understood one thing: he had gone too far this time, and it was a very serious matter.

With the appearance of the sword before him, he could clearly see in it a power they had long sought, yet also feared. He also understood the source of his fear of Lin Jie.

The sword embodies only one will: battle and destruction, nothing more.

That is the purest destruction in the world. If the sky stands in its way, it will wipe it away; if the earth stands in its way, it will destroy it. If gods or demons appear before it, it will slaughter them.

That's all. A sword born solely for battle and destruction. Its original purpose was only one thing: to kill the god of war.

Baphomet's fear resurfaced in his heart. A sense of retreat was already rising within him. This man before him was actually willing to use such a malevolent sword to kill him.

Lin Jie had no time to care about the demon's thoughts; all he wanted to do was kill it. With that, Lin Jie slowly raised his ancient sword.

"Wait, aren't you afraid of hurting your students by using such a vicious weapon?" Baphomet said through gritted teeth to Lin Jie.

"Do you really think you, a demon, have the right to threaten me?" Lin Jie said calmly. As soon as he finished speaking, the goat-headed demons who had just been holding the students vanished into thin air.

The students landed on the ground below, but fortunately there were quite a few people below, so although a few were hit, most of them were unharmed.

At this moment, Lin Jie's students all looked at Lin Jie in the sky with terror, their bodies trembling. Only now did they truly understand what kind of being their teacher, who had been teaching them all along, really was.

He was a man who required unparalleled courage to even take a step closer; his powerful aura had overwhelmed all monsters and humans.

The student who felt this most deeply was undoubtedly Ye Daoshen. As a descendant of an ancient clan, he clearly understood the meaning of the sword in Lin Jie's hand. It was a terrifying existence that was shaking the entire C district, and he never imagined that a mythical legend would actually appear before his very eyes.

“You can’t kill me!” Baphomet said to Lin Jie. “You can’t possibly kill me. As long as there are people in this world who fear me, I will never be killed!”

"Three Styles Modified - Zhuxian"

A terrifying sword light, capable of piercing through heaven and earth and seemingly severing time and space, swept towards Baphomet.

At that moment, Baphomet instantly cast a teleportation spell, and the next second he vanished from Lin Jie's sight, passing through layers of space and returning to the depths of the legendary Demon Realm.

However, it's impossible to evade the Immortal Execution Sword Light simply by teleporting through space. The sword light followed Ba Fumie as he traversed space. If Ba Fumie were to travel through time, the sword light would still follow him through time.

This is the terrifying power of the Immortal Execution Sword; its true power is such that every strike will be stained with blood.

"Damn it." Feeling the powerful sword light coming towards him, Baphomet only cursed once, and then his entire body disappeared into the sword light.

A terrifying crack started here and continued to extend into the distance.

Inside a dark castle, Baphomet stood silently, with Argus, the Balrog, beside him. A young girl sat in the main seat before them, gazing silently at images of human cities through a mirror.

"Help!" Baphomet's true form suddenly cried out, and then began to disintegrate as if it had been struck by a sword.

Faced with this sudden change, the girl immediately appeared beside Baphomet, her pure dark power swirling around Baphomet's body.

The next moment, a huge explosion resounded throughout the entire hall.

A massive explosion occurred here, and the once dark castle was reduced to rubble.

"Is this your answer, Baphomet?" After the explosion, the girl stood there quietly looking at Baphomet, who was now just a head and a hand, and said, "I asked you to investigate the current strength of humanity, but you went out and violated taboos? What exactly is that ominous power?"

“I don’t know, Miss,” Baphomet said with difficulty. “Besides this broken body I have now, all my other bodies were wiped out in an instant. In fact, if it weren’t for your intervention, Miss, my original body would probably have been wiped out as well.”

"What exactly is that ominous power?" the girl asked Baphomet. "That power has even surpassed the ominous power of us demons."

“I’m sorry, all my bodies were wiped out in an instant, and not even a fragment of my memories were passed on to me.” Baphomet said calmly, “I don’t know what I encountered, but I’m sure I did my best to complete the task you assigned me to investigate human power.”

Chapter 45

"You said you went to investigate human power intelligence according to my orders? Then why are you like this now?" the girl asked, looking at Baphomet, who only had a head and an arm left.

“Miss, although not all the memories were transmitted, some images still exist,” Baphomet said to the girl in front of him.

"Is that so? Then show me what you saw. I'm still very curious about who could sever all the connections in your body." The girl said to Baphomet, "What kind of power could make even me feel something ominous?"

Hearing her words, Baphomme responded. Then Lin Jie's figure appeared before the girl.

"Miss! I never expected it to be this person!!!" Argus, the Flame Demon, exclaimed as he looked at Lin Jie's figure.

"I know, I was there when he beat you up that day." The girl said, looking at the scenery around her. "It's a pity about this house I have now. I was living quite comfortably, but now I have to move so soon."

“I’m sorry, miss,” Baphomet said.

"It's alright, I've already decided on the location of my new home." The girl turned to Baphomet and said, "Tell everyone else that I'm going to live in the human world for a while."

“But Miss! If you do this…” Argus couldn’t help but say.

"Don't worry, I will leave most of my power here to awaken others," the girl said to the two.

The location returns to the Academy Island.

After Lin Jie unleashed his sword strike, the surrounding red barrier shattered instantly. When the students returned to their original world, the entire island was unrecognizable, shrouded in a deathly silence, with houses and buildings completely weathered and collapsed.

The students of Class S stared in shock at the scene around them. Each of them looked at the desolate island as if they had a duck egg stuffed in their mouths. No one could connect this island with the previous academy island.
