Yun Xiao was nailed to the roof, but he did not cry. He had suffered much more than this, so he did not cry out in pain. Instead, he laughed out loud.
"What are you laughing at?" Ling Xiao frowned.
"I'm laughing at how you can't kill me no matter how strong you are. I'm laughing at how you're about to die. Hahahahaha." " What?" Yun Xiao laughed strangely." The entire Mount Shu is surrounded by the demons of the Seven Kills Temple. So what if you are strong?" You can't run away. You'll die for sure."
Ling Xiao did not say anything, but his expression grew colder. He activated the five flashes of Sword Qi that were pinned to Yun Xiao's body and set up a small Five Elements Formation. Apart from him, even Exalted Immortal Wugou, who was proficient in formations, could not break it.
"Whether I live or die has nothing to do with you. Just stay here obediently and wait for the disciples of Mount Shu to return.”Ling Xiao said as he pulled Hua Qiangu out of the hall.
At this moment, hundreds of demons had gathered outside the main hall. A middle-aged man with thick and long white eyebrows, dressed in a dark blue robe, stood at the very front. He held a box in his left hand. Judging from his leisurely manner, he seemed to be waiting for Ling Xiao to come out.
Although Hua Qiangu was used to seeing demons since he was young, he had never seen such a large formation. He shrank into Ling Xiao's arms in fear.
Ling Xiao patted her shoulder lightly and said,""Little Gu, don't be afraid. Give me two drops of blood.”Hua Qiangu grunted and obediently came out of his embrace, extending his fair little hand.
He used his sword Qi to cut Hua Qiangu's fingertip and took two drops of blood. Then, he used his wood-elemental Yuan Qi to heal the wound on her hand.
Putting away one of the drops of blood, Ling Xiao wielded the Sovereign Heart Sword and injected boundless sword will into the other drop of blood.
The blood that had been fused with the Soaring Cloud Sword Intent had actually solidified. Traces of sword aura flowed on the surface, making it look like a polished ruby.
Ling Xiao placed the blood essence infused with sword intent into Hua Qiangu's hand and said with a smile,""Little Gu, go into the hall. If any demons sneak into the hall, use the Earth Elemental Art on this drop of blood. My sword intent will transform into sword qi to protect you.”
Hua Qiangu took the blood essence and said hesitantly,""But if I enter the main hall, won't Brother Xiao have to face danger alone?”
"I don't care about these little demons. You go in first, I'll deal with them immediately.”Ling Xiao said gently.
"I want to fight side by side with Brother Xiao.”
Ling Xiao shook his head." Little Gu is a girl. These evil demons don't deserve to die in your hands. Be obedient and enter the main hall."”As he spoke, his expression suddenly turned cold. Hua Qiangu had never seen Ling Xiao so cold before. She understood that the death of thousands of Mount Shu disciples had completely infuriated Ling Xiao. Ling Xiao wanted to use these demons to vent his anger. If he insisted on not entering the main hall, it would only add to his troubles.
Hua Qiangu nodded and turned to walk into the hall. He would stop every two or three steps to look at Ling Xiao. Ling Xiao was still smiling. It was only when he saw Hua Qiangu off into the main hall that his expression turned cold again.
"All of you will die." Ling Xiao stepped forward and appeared in front of the demons.
"Die?" The white-browed middle-aged man in the lead laughed as if he had heard a big joke."You don't seem to understand the situation. Who will die?”
Ling Xiao saw that this person was standing in the middle of all the demons. His demonic power was not low, and he was holding a box. He knew that this person must be Shan Chunqiu, the Guardian of the Seven Kills.
"You are Dan Chunqiu from the Seven Kills Temple?" Ling Xiao asked coldly.
"I am Shan Chunqiu. Who are you?”Shan Chunqiu asked.
" Long-stay disciple, Ling Xiao." Ling Xiao pulled out the True Martial Sword from his waist and pointed it at Shan Chunqiu. He shouted,""Shan Chunqiu, do you dare to fight?"
Shan Chunqiu was also tempted when he saw the fighting spirit surging from his body. He took out a five-foot-long saber from his storage space, which was embedded with wolf teeth.
"Today, I'll give you this opportunity to have a good exchange with you.”Shan Chunqiu was one of the Seven Kills and Ten Guardians. Usually, his subordinates relied on intelligence, so he had only cultivated his demonic skills to the peak of the Sub-Immortal Realm. However, he had been through hundreds of battles in his life, and his combat experience was far greater than Ling Xiao's. He was the strongest opponent Ling Xiao had encountered since he became a cultivator, other than Bai Zihua.
The two of them held their swords and did not use any spells. They crossed swords in the air and competed in martial arts.
Although Shan Chunqiu didn't use any divine arts, his long saber had the power of 10,000 units every time it landed. Ling Xiao's thumb and forefinger trembled from the shock, but Ling Xiao's sword moves were formless. Every time he attacked, Shan Chunqiu would find it difficult to take care of. Furthermore, he could not predict it, so they were evenly matched at the beginning.
Before he became a demon, Shan Chunqiu was also a swordsman with exquisite saber techniques. Because after becoming a demon, one could use magic power to strengthen their weapons. Even without any techniques, they could still unleash great power and defeat the enemy with strength. Shan Chunqiu no longer used his saber techniques. For hundreds of years, he had always won with his mana and divine arts, so he naturally forgot all about his saber techniques.
Thus, there was no technique to speak of in each of his strikes. He only managed to use great strength when relaxed and dodge when in danger. Although there were many flaws, it was not something that could be broken in a short time.
After dozens of moves, Ling Xiao finally found a flaw that Shan Chunqiu could not avoid. He turned his sword and stabbed his wrist.
"You lost!" said Ling Xiao.
"Lose?" Shan Chunqiu threw away the saber in his hand and laughed."A battle between swords and sabers is a battle between mortals. Immortals and Fiendgods should compare divine powers and spells.”With that, his figure flashed and disappeared.
"Invisibility or spatial teleportation?”Ling Xiao, who did not notice anything amiss, held the True Martial Sword tightly and did not dare to relax.
It was also at this moment that the space above his head suddenly opened. Shan Chunqiu's entire body was wrapped in demonic energy as he pounced towards Ling Xiao.
Sensing the appearance of the Demonic Qi, Ling Xiao sneered and stabbed upward with the True Martial Sword in his hand.
Shan Chunqiu had nowhere to hide. He had already thrown away the saber in his hand. He could only circulate his magic power and clap his hands to meet it.
Although the body of the demonic path was strong, Shan Chunqiu's palm had the power to split mountains and break rocks. However, the True Martial Sword was an ancient divine sword. Other than the Witch God who cultivated his body in the ancient times, who would dare to touch it with their hands?
Shan Chunqiu's hand was immediately cut off by the True Martial Sword. The pain was naturally endless.
Although he had used his magic power to heal his severed palm and the pain had subsided, Shan Chunqiu was still a famous devil. He was naturally furious that Ling Xiao, one of the five long-term disciples, had forced him into such a state.
"Good boy, watch my mo skill!"
After he finished speaking, Shan Chunqiu's body swayed and split into dozens of himself before instantly disappearing.
"This move is actually Changliu's [Clone Concealment]. It can transform into a clone and hide in a spatial crack, waiting for an opportunity to kill the enemy.”Ling Xiao could tell the origin of this move at a glance. After all, the Seven Kills of Everlasting were once a family. Even though one of them had become an immortal and the other had become a devil, some of their divine powers and spells were still the same.
If this move was used against others, it would also catch them off guard. However, Ling Xiao cultivated the Zhen Wu Shen Ce and knew the Heartless Sword, so it was easy for him to break this move.
"Sovereign Heart Sword, Ten Thousand Swords Facing the Origin!" Ling Xiao threw the True Martial Sword into the sky and activated the Sovereign Heart Sword and the True Martial Strategy at the same time. He guided the power of the five elements to turn into boundless sword qi. In an instant, the entire Mount Shu, except for the main hall, was filled with sword Qi. The weak demons on the ground were directly pierced through by the sword qi, and their souls were scattered. The strong could only resist, and it was difficult to tell whether they lived or died.
In an instant, there were more corpses of demons on the ground. Ling Xiao did not care. He activated the Real Martial Divine Strategy again and controlled the power of the five elements, causing the space to fluctuate continuously.
Shan Chunqiu was finally chased out of the space crack. As soon as he came out of the crack, he was pierced through by countless sword qi. Because of his demonic power, he didn't die. However, the sword qi not only penetrated his body, but it also injured his primordial spirit. With his primordial spirit injured, Shan Chunqiu was in so much pain that he could not even speak.
The situation instantly reversed. Ling Xiao controlled the lives of these demons.
"All of you will be buried together with your fellow Mount Shu cultivators!”Ling Xiao said coldly. He made a hand seal and was about to finish off the demons of the Seven Murders Sect.
At that moment, a bird's cry was heard. Ling Xiao looked in the direction of the sound and saw a fire phoenix with a wingspan of 30 feet flying over. Flames kept spewing out of its body and burned Ling Xiao's Five Elements Sword Qi to ashes.
The demon immediately survived. The phoenix suddenly shrank and turned into a beauty with long hair and a peacock tail fan.
"Their lives are mine. You can't take them away!”
The beauty's voice was very soft, but it spread throughout the entire Mount Shu.
"Thank you for saving my life, Your Majesty!" the demons kowtowed.”
Only then did Ling Xiao realize that this person was the legendary number one beauty of the Six Realms, Sha Qianmo.
