It had been more than two years since he left the space of consciousness. Two years was a lot of time for humans, but it was a relatively short time for the demons. In terms of the lifespan of the demon race, even the weakest little demons had a lifespan of one to two hundred years. Therefore, most of the demons had no concept of time.
Blue sky, white clouds, green mountains, and clear waters. The pink leaves of the Bitter Love Tree danced in the air. Mud Mountain was still a beautiful place.
Yun Xichen sat cross-legged on the mountaintop. He liked to cultivate in a quiet place like this. Yun Xichen held his breath and focused, opening his body and mind. The spiritual energy in the air entered his body through his opened pores and circulated through his meridians before entering his dantian, becoming a part of his demonic power.
Opening her eyes, Yun Xichen slowly exhaled and frowned." Again? How many times has it been?"”
Every time, he felt that he was one step away. As long as he could cross it, Yun Xichen would be able to reach the strength of a Demon King. However, he just could not cross that thin boundary. It was not just once. As time went on, Yun Xichen began to lose patience.
Standing up, Yun Xichen, who was holding his breath, pulled out his sword and swung it at the calm lake below the mountain.
Bang!
A wave that was dozens of meters tall bloomed on the surface of the water. Water droplets fell densely, creating countless ripples.
Even so, Yun Xichen still did not feel satisfied. His hands were itchy and he really wanted to find someone or a demon to fight. However, things had been peaceful recently. For some reason, the Qi Alliance hadn't come to attack Mud Mountain for more than a year.
"Why don't you dare to come, you members of the Qi Refining Dao Alliance? You're so cowardly!" Yun Xichen shouted at the blue sky filled with white clouds, venting the anger in his heart.
Turning around, Yun Xichen jumped down from the top of the mountain and flew towards the forest behind Mud Mountain. She planned to relax and reduce the irritation in her heart.
……
In the forest at the back of Mud Mountain, a bear demon was leading a dozen small demons in the low bushes under the tall trees. The bear demon's body was covered in thick fur, which was its best defense. This could be seen from the scars that covered his fur. The bear demon's right eye was gone, replaced by three scars left by scratches. Coupled with his missing ears, it was enough to prove his ferocity.
At this moment, the bear demon was obviously a little irritable. From time to time, he waved his sharp claws and told his subordinates to hurry up and stop dawdling.
"Boss, this is Mud Mountain.”? A wild boar monster under the bear monster swallowed his saliva and said, his eyes showing a trace of fear," I heard that Mud Mountain has a Sword Devil. Anyone who offends him, be it human or monster, will be struck by him."”
The bear demon turned his head and glanced at him. He walked in front of him and slapped him away. He said angrily," Of course I know! But what can I do!"
Under the bear demon's powerful slap, one of the wild boar demon's fangs was broken. Its body crashed into three trees before it stopped, and a stream of blood flowed from the corner of its mouth. Ignoring his injuries, the wild boar demon climbed up from the broken tree trunk and immediately begged for mercy." Boss, spare me, spare me!"”
The bear demon glanced at the wild boar demon, snorted heavily, and continued to advance with his subordinates.
How could he not know the dangers of Mud Mountain? Mud Mountain was weak, but there was a monster king guarding it. With the strength of these monsters, they weren't strong enough. However, if they didn't go, they would die. They might as well see the power of Mud Mountain Monster King. It wouldn't be a loss to die under the monster king's hands.
"Boss, do you have any plans for our trip to Mud Mountain?”Another wolf demon under the bear demon asked. He wanted to know the bear demon's plan so that he could escape when the situation turned bad.
"No!" The bear demon glared at his subordinate, then grabbed his neck and lifted him up from the ground.
The wolf demon could not breathe properly. He tried his best to pry the bear paw away, but the bear paw was like a strong iron clamp. No matter how hard he tried, it was useless. He wanted to beg for mercy, but his throat was strangled. His voice was intermittent, unable to form a complete sentence.
The bear demon's scarlet eyes were overflowing with killing intent as he threatened fiercely," Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. Lead the way in front. If you dare to run, I'll be the first to kill you! Get lost!"
" Thank you, Boss! Thank you, Boss!" The wolf demon, who had regained its freedom, got up from the ground and obediently led the way in front, not daring to complain or have any disloyalty.
In the demon world, strength was always paramount. Whoever had the biggest fist was the boss. Without strength, you have to keep everything to yourself!
The wolf demon had only taken two steps forward when a relieved voice came from the front.
"Aiya, I really didn't expect to meet you guys here. Tell me, why did you come to Mud Mountain? Mud Mountain didn't welcome guests with ill intentions.”
An ordinary-looking grey-robed fox demon leaned against a tree trunk and looked down at the bear demon and the others. He looked relaxed and did not take them seriously at all.
The bear demon signaled his subordinates to stop moving forward and asked in a deep voice," Who are you?”
"My name is Yun Xichen, Mud Mountain fox demon. I heard that you want to attack Mud Mountain?”Yun Xichen stood up from the tree trunk and smiled, but her eyes flashed with a chilling light.
How dare they have designs on Mud Mountain? He was tired of living!
"So what? Who do you think you are?”One of the leopard demons under the bear demon was eager to show off and shouted at Yun Xichen," If you know what's good for you, get out of the way. If my boss is in a good mood, he can spare your life, or else..."
Hearing the leopard demon's nonsense, Yun Xichen pursed his lips in disdain. He patted the sawdust on the hem of his cloak, held the sword hilt at his waist, jumped down, and drew his sword!
She really didn't expect that when she was strolling around the back mountain, these guys would bump into her and say that they wanted to attack Mud Mountain. Yun Xichen was just worried that he had nowhere to vent his anger.
The first to meet Yun Xichen was not the wolf demon who was walking at the front, but the leopard demon who had been looking for an opportunity to show off in front of Boss. He leaped up and extended his sharp claws towards Yun Xichen.
He seemed to be too eager for quick success, or he was too proud. No matter how long his claws were, they were not as long as a sword. Moreover, Yun Xichen's sword was not an ordinary sword.
Without any suspense, Yun Xichen's sword stabbed into the leopard demon's throat first. A gust of wind surged on the surface of the sword, and the leopard demon's claws could not even stop the heavy sword from moving forward.
Yun Xichen casually tossed the leopard demon's corpse aside and placed the sword in front of her chest. She extended her left hand and calmly said," Next, please!”
This was a blatant provocation!
The demons looked at each other and drew out their weapons to attack Yun Xichen. They thought that no matter how strong Yun Xichen was, he could only deal with one demon. They would definitely be able to kill him if they attacked together.
Yun Xichen decided to play with these guys. He did not use the Seven Styles of the Northern Dipper to finish them off in one go. Instead, he used the Wind Whisk Willow to fight them slowly.
The gentle sword moves easily deflected the demons 'attacks, causing them to land on the heads of the demons beside them. The demons who were hit by their companions' attacks immediately roared in anger. A few of them even started fighting with their companions on the spot.
Yun Xichen relied on her nimble movements to move among the demons with ease.
From the beginning to the end, the bear demon had been standing on the spot with his arms crossed as he watched the demons under him die. These demons were only temporarily subdued by him to be used as cannon fodder. He did not care how many of them were killed or injured.
What shocked him was Yun Xichen. This unattractive little fox demoness was actually so powerful. He clearly could not sense how much cultivation he had from his aura. At first, he thought that he was just a little demon.
Also, the bear demon couldn't tell who his master was or what kind of demon he was. This was a mysterious and powerful opponent.
Pulling out the sword from the last deer demon's corpse, Yun Xichen turned to look at the bear demon. He was the strongest among these demons.
"What's your name?" Yun Xichen asked," Why attack Mud Mountain?”
"My name is Goode, I'm from the North Mountain." " It's my honor to meet you. You must be the legendary Mud Mountain Sword Demon."”
"What?" Yun Xichen was speechless. Who gave him a nickname?
