Chapter 3, The Four Fiends of Xingzhou
After being pursued for so long, he is now very clear about it
Can this world still get better
Since his arrival in this world over a month ago, he has lived under immense pressure; the fact that he has not gone insane can be considered a testament to his strong will
He wished to abandon evil and embrace good, enduring and yielding in the face of those who tested him. During the ten days of being pursued, he also showed mercy towards those on the righteous path.
Cheer up, if the situation is beyond your control, preserving your life is of utmost importance
Clang!
The four men whispered in unison and simultaneously launched their attacks, forming a battle formation
A glimmer of cold light, akin to stars tearing through the night sky, carries a desolate yet brilliant radiance, striking like a lightning bolt
Aren't you all fond of laughing heartily? Give me a smile, give me a hearty laugh!
The leader of the Four Fiends, with his arm enveloped in a fierce aura, transformed it into the claws of a ferocious beast, striking like lightning, and forcefully swept across the sword that had pierced through time and space before him
In the next moment, a chilling aura of murderous intent erupted from him like a volcano spewing forth, carrying with it an endless blaze that soared into the sky
As the four individuals' vital energy surged, Gu Jinlai felt as if his own breath was somehow disturbed, causing a slight disarray in his swordsmanship. Consequently, this lightning-fast strike revealed a flaw, almost leading to it being broken by the four.
The cold light reflects the frost, swift and fleeting like a shooting star
I wonder how long you can hide!
If one dons the dark armor and charges into battle, one can break through a thousand foes single-handedly
Each sword qi that sweeps by can leave a sword mark several meters long on the ground
Taking this opportunity, the other two individuals brazenly attacked.
Looking at the mangled body of the leader of the Four Fiends of Xingzhou, watching the blood flow from my hands
Cultivating Qi to form the essence! The essence of Qi takes shape!
Until the fourth was instantaneously killed, the piercing sword howl generated by the friction between the sword aura and the air erupted in the space of less than ten meters between the two, creating ripples
How should he live in order to satisfy those pursuers
What a swordsmanship! This is not good! The old demon is insidious!
The sunlight, obscured by dark clouds, casts a shadow over him
The four individuals are extremely resolute
Blood splattered, accompanied by the sorrowful cries of the other two individuals
This realm of cultivation is rife with the jungle law of the survival of the fittest, when will a law-abiding Blue Star individual, who is determined to abandon evil and embrace goodness, be able to find peace?
As it has been said throughout history, it is better to arrive at the right moment than to arrive early
Ning Gang can undoubtedly be regarded as a master in the realm of Da Qian
These four individuals possess the bloodline of demons, and as they strike, they seem to transform into four fearsome beasts, each unleashing a terrifying ferocity, converging from four directions to encircle and attack Gu Jinlai.
At present, for those burdened by these sins, there is no reservation; one can unleash a great slaughter, allowing all negative emotions to be fully expressed
The sword in hand, throughout the ages, resembles a giant hammer swung in a full 360 degrees, striking heavily and producing a sound akin to a great bell, shattering the tiger's mouth, and breaking free from his grasp.
When a person is killed, they will die
The sonic waves shattered, resonating with the circulation of true energy within the body through the ages
Desperate struggle
Caution
Ancient and modern!
In order to ensure that the enemy does not escape, his inner elixir erupted completely, resulting in a somewhat unstable state.
No
As he swept across the ground, he swiftly seized the sword that had slain the second one
Weakness cannot elicit any compassion; it will only hasten one's own demise
The four calamities of Xingzhou must be decisively addressed!
Stop!
If it is said that Ninggang can only pierce through a thousand-man army formation and break out, then with the time to restore his true energy, Baodan can shatter a thousand-man army formation.
The second among the four said: "Tell me, is there a possibility that the ancient demon voluntarily requested to be transferred to Changjun City, then pretended to be possessed, actually demonstrating weakness to lure out his rival—Lin Xiao, the deputy leader of the Hell Demon Sect"
He clearly felt his own weakness
Roar
This world is not one where a higher realm can easily crush dozens or hundreds of lower realm practitioners in the high-energy cultivation world. In the absence of refined movement techniques, when pursuing the desperate leader of the Four Fiends of Xingzhou, he can only unleash his ultimate moves, which naturally leads to astonishing consumption
At present, the four formidable beings are surging in from four directions, and any one of the manifested ferocious beasts is capable of shattering boulders weighing over ten tons
Qian Dang
He is somewhat confused
Having comprehended the profound mysteries of the Crimson Lotus Sword Qi, he is in need of someone to test the results.
Silence has prevailed throughout the ages.
Let's get out of here!
And once the hand is extended, it is with all one's might
Retreat
The sudden blow finally awakened the last remaining leader, his eyes filled with a mix of fear and astonishment
The sword aura has been howling through the ages, and that kind of icy killing intent makes the four fiends of Xingzhou's hair stand on end
Having killed three people in succession, Gu Jinlai, drenched in blood, exhibited a surge of ferocity
The three old paths
Return my third brother's life to me
Retreat! When you were chasing me, you were like four mad dogs, biting me relentlessly. Now that you have caught up with me, you want to retreat!
With a sword in hand, it seemed as if a blood-red lotus unfolded and rapidly spun in the void behind him, and in the moment of its rotation, thirteen streams of sword energy shot forth, aimed at the leader of the Four Fiends of Xingzhou, piercing through with a howl.
His thoughts surged with the experiences of the past month
A peak-level expert in the Qi realm unleashed their full power, and a single sword strike was enough to carve a blood path several meters long.
Hell is empty, and the devils are here
The aura possesses astonishing lethality
The sword breaks through the vast sky
Retreat
He swiftly turned the tip of his sword and, at the moment when the formation of the four was shattered, suddenly lunged towards the third brother who was closest to him
Do you dare to escape
The four fiends of Xingzhou who wanted to kill him are dead
However, his Crimson Lotus Sword Qi has already reached great perfection after two insights, as if it has been tempered a thousand times, changing within his heart
His descent into madness is undeniable. The head of the Zhengyi sect went to the ancient demon's lair to recreate the scene using the Xuanjing technique. He has indeed suffered a significant loss of power, currently at his strongest, he is merely at the level of Baodan, and he cannot even fully exert the strength of Baodan. The four of us have worked together for many years, and our cooperation is seamless. Even if we were to face someone at the Baodan level, we would still be able to retreat unscathed. What is there to fear
One of the Ten Demon Sects, the Elder of the Purgatory Demon Sect, a giant of the demonic path throughout history
No ... ...
This is Baodan
Second brother
As soon as the true energy was disrupted, he immediately took advantage of the situation, transforming it into an even colder sword energy, resembling strands of blood, slashing out along with the sharp sword in his hand
The sword laments
Under an intense and extreme tremor, the ferocious beasts formed from the four heads of the primal energy shattered inch by inch
Something is not right
The elite forces of the Great Qian can trap and kill those in the True Qi realm, but when faced with the unstoppable sword and blade energies, they can be broken through like a bamboo being split apart.
In the past ten days...
Throughout history, looking up at the sunlight filtering through the leaves, scattered in dappled patterns, my eyes are devoid of focus
The demon is too cunning
The four individuals took a deep breath, their entire bodies filled with vital energy, circulating and boiling, beginning to pulse according to a special frequency
Bang
After a considerable amount of time, Gu Jinlai finally calmed down from the intense fluctuations of such emotions
Before a person arrives, the sword's aura has already made its presence known
Throughout the ages, fierce shouts resound, tattered garments flutter, swords whistle and dragons roar, true energy flows freely, and a chilling atmosphere pervades the surroundings
He is from ancient times to the present
A single strike reveals depth and shallowness
Gu Jin looked at the body that could barely be pieced together to resemble a human and uttered a word
As he looked at the somewhat frenzied Gu Jinlai, the leader of the Four Fiends of Xingzhou felt a shiver run down his spine, no longer daring to hesitate for even a moment. He turned and fled in a mad dash
Throughout history, the killing intent has surged forth, and under the boiling true energy, the figure resembles a cloud of blood, soaring and pursuing. With a single step on the toes, it covers a distance of several meters.
Then my request for life and death is equally justified
Who allowed you to retreat
Where the sword light points, trees are broken, and grass clippings fly in all directions
First, a sword qi swept past the waist
Before the person arrived, the fierce beast's phantom, transformed by the aura, had already roared and pounced down!
He survived
Under the relentless onslaught of the sword energy, the leader of the Four Fiends of Xingzhou is doomed to meet his fate
The head of the fourth brother shattered and scattered like a watermelon struck by a sniper's bullet
Buzz!
Survived!
As the ferocious beasts transformed from the four-headed astral energy charged towards him, he swung his sword, and at his center, it seemed as if a lotus composed of red sword light blossomed. Dozens of sword energies, resembling lotus petals, shot forth, cutting through the four ferocious beasts formed from condensed astral energy, as if they were alive, following a peculiar frequency.
I ... ...
Observing the overjoyed Gu Jinlai, the Four Fiends of Xingzhou exchanged glances, their expressions gradually becoming serious
Secret Technique · Tiger Roar Thunder Sound
Bang
Upon realizing this, he collapsed onto the ground, trembling all over despite being a master at the Dan realm, his hands and feet cold.
Those who possess such swordsmanship, both ancient and modern, are considered outstanding even within the realm of the Baodan stage
Whoosh
Faced with this sword that has traversed time like a shooting star, the formidable master of condensation took a deep breath and let out a low, wild howl at the moment this sword struck with lethal speed.
Four Evil Formation! Rise!
Third brother
When it is time to cut, cut decisively
The old avenue led by the leader
From ancient times to the present, he stood up from the ground and shook off the grass clippings from his body
Unfortunately
Die
The spirit soars like a rainbow across the sky
True Qi violently trembles
To slay a single person, the sword's edge turns once more through the ages, like a meteor piercing the moon, once again heading towards the second one to kill.
Buzz!
The leader of the Four Fiends of Xingzhou has his eyes wide open with intensity
... ...
Retreat
Your actions to eliminate evil and uphold justice are entirely justified; I explain, but you do not listen
The third brother was directly engulfed by the sword light, torn to shreds
The ability to embrace the essence of the elixir has become the ultimate aspiration for countless practitioners of cultivation
In his frantic dash, he surged forward for a moment due to inertia, but ultimately, his body was torn apart and dismembered by waves of sword energy, transforming into chunks of flesh, collapsing to the ground
In the blink of an eye, only one of the four fiends of Xingzhou remains
Having lost the treasured sword, the movements of the hands remained unhurried throughout the ages. A cold light radiated from the eyes, locking onto the fourth elder. The body turned at an angle, and in the instant of the strike, the true energy condensed and emerged, transforming the energy into a formidable force, solidifying the force into a sword. It was as if an unparalleled divine weapon had been unsheathed, carrying an indomitable sharpness, tearing through the void
Even though he initially activated his true energy to protect his body, he still staggered. Immediately, a second sword energy pierced through his thigh, followed by a third that penetrated his chest, a fourth that pierced his throat, and a fifth that penetrated his skull
Ding!
As the sword vibrated and slipped from his hand, he reacted swiftly, utilizing the force of the vibration to hurl it forward, instantly piercing the skull of the second of the Four Fiends of Xingzhou.
However, it was of no use; instead, it only served to bolster their arrogance, making them even more overreaching.
The ancient and modern pursuers gazed at the head of the Four Fiends, who lay in a state of dismemberment. They continued forward for a moment, propelled by inertia, before gradually coming to a halt.
The leaders of the Four Fiends of Xingzhou shouted simultaneously, and the battle formation of the four was disrupted by a single strike under the pressure of these blood-red sword energies
