Chapter 582 – Killing the Demons

The silver sword light wove a large sword net, and meticulously sliced ​​the Fiends that kept leaping towards this side.

When the monster rolled dexterously and shook their bodies, they smashed the sword nets into fragments.

The other monster was of a lower level and was cut into pieces by the sword net, but with a snort, a cloud of black mist floated from the head of the dead demonic beast, and then quickly retreated.

After a few feet, it recondensed into a humanoid, dark thing.

The disciples were about to collapse, and shouted, “This thing can’t be killed at all! If it’s killed, it will rush out and be attached to something else. How can we handle it?!”

“I can’t hold it anymore, my spiritual Qi is almost used up!”

“We can’t let these bastards go inside any further! There are still ordinary citizens inside the city!”

At this moment, a huge demonic beast seemed to smell human flesh, turned around, and rushed towards a shop on the side of the street. It broke open the door with a paw and saw a woman holding a child sitting on the ground tremblingly looking at it in horror.

The demonic beast possessed by the Fiend roared, and stinky saliva flowed out of its fangs. Just as it was about to open its claws and rush towards the pair of woman and child, a sword light flashed behind it, and in the blink of an eye, it was cut into pieces.

A cloud of black mist resurfaced, and before it had time to retreat, it was completely broken by the impenetrable sword light, and by the next few sword moves, it was completely strangled into fragments, and it was no longer able to condense its form. It could only make some sharp and harsh sounds and then dissipated into the air unwillingly.

Lin Xuanzhi held the Zhige Sword in his hand, glanced at the woman who fainted with fright and the child whose face was as pale as a paper, then turned and left the house.

When those disciples saw Lin Xuanzhi, they all cried with joy as if they had met their father. “Huarong Sword Immortal, thank you for coming, we won’t be able to hold it anymore if you didn’t come!”

“All of a sudden, there are so many Fiends, we don’t know why it became like this either!”

“Three disciples died! Wahhh!”

Lin Xuanzhi said, “These Fiends can’t stay in the air on their own for a long time. They must attach to living creatures in order to use their cultivation. You need to find where the Fiends are hiding on the demonic beast and kill them before they are formed. As long as the red line at the back of the neck is cut off, the Fiends will enter a weak period. It’s easier to kill them.”

Before Lin Xuanzhi’s words fell, his sword flew out and backhanded the possessed person who leaped towards him and chopped off the red line at the back of the neck. They only heard a scream that almost pierced the eardrum. His screams sounded, and the disciples covered their ears one after another.

The Fiend immediately became mad, and the eyes of the demonic beast turned into grayish-white, with a little pus, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.

It roared and stretched out its claws to Lin Xuanzhi. It was like lightning, fast as the aurora. Lin Xuanzhi fought and retreated. His posture was natural and unrestrained, and his sword moves were extremely skilled. When the demonic beast was enraged and a place in his chest began to drip blood and pus, Lin Xuanzhi suddenly stopped retreating and went up head-on, stabbing the demonic beast’s wound at his chest.

All the disciples present were dumbfounded. If it wasn’t for the wrong timing where the things possessed by the Fiends were still trying to attack, they would’ve clapped for Huarong Sword Immortal.

“It’s amazing!” They don’t know who murmured.

The eyes of the disciples looking at Lin Xuanzhi were full of deep respect.

Lin Xuanzhi glanced back at them and said, “Don’t be stunned. Take action.”

With that, he fell on the hanging eaves of the high restaurant in the rear and stood with his hands behind his back. The Fiends rushed towards him one after another. Each of them was fierce, but Lin Xuanzhi struck it in the air and easily slapped it to the ground.

Those disciples who thought Lin Xuanzhi would solve the problem directly were almost hit by the fallen Fiends, and they were in a mess. Some of them cried and screamed, but in the face of these Fiends’ attacks, they had no choice but to rush up. For a moment, the scene was chaotic.

Lin Xuanzhi stood above, like an auspicious cloud coming down from the sky, able to ascend to immortality at a moment’s notice, which was in sharp contrast to the heart splitting, crying, and howling accident scene on Chang’an Street.

Myriad Dao Academy’s urgent drum beats continued to sound, which meant that there was a major emergency in the city. The people in the city should return to their homes as soon as possible, wait for the crisis to be solved, and then go out again.

On Chang’an Street, apart from these sect disciples who wore Taoist robes and held various weapons to fight against the ferocious Fiends, no one else wandered.

Lin Xuanzhi stood on the top and watched, but it was not just that. He would pay attention to the disciples below. When anyone was about to be killed by the Fiend, he would interfere and send the Fiend flying away, which allowed the disciples who had almost passed by the god of death to energetically rush over to counterattack the Fiend.

At first, the disciples were all intimidated. But when the first Fiend was killed, these disciples were inspired. They seemed to know that Lin Xuanzhi was sitting in town and that he would not endanger their lives. They were all excited as if they had been shot full of chicken blood. They tried their best to figure out how to deal with these Fiends.

The screams of the Fiends, the sharp sound of swords, and the roar of the disciples all came.

When Sword Saint Tianshu arrived, he saw Lin Xuanzhi standing above, calmly watching the disciples below as if watching the excitement and fighting bravely to kill the enemy like a play. Sword Saint Tianshu realized something, and fell by Lin Xuanzhi’s side, and said, “There is still such a method?”

Lin Xuanzhi took a look at Tianshu and said, “The level of these Fiends are not high. They’re nothing more than some low-level Fiends. They can just be taken to practice for these disciples.”

Sword Saint Tianshu seemed to have been taken advantage of and suffered a great loss. He said bitterly, “I didn’t expect to be able to do this just now. I protected those young cubs behind me and solved so many Fiends by myself. It’s really a big loss!”

Lin Xuanzhi chuckled slightly when he heard the words. “I am afraid that the Sword Saint has not encountered any crisis in these years. This time, you exercised your muscles and bones and sharpened your sword.”

Sword Saint Tianshu sighed, “I am already old, I can’t move for a while — oh be careful!”

A disciple was thrown to the ground by the Fiend while they were talking, and he was almost bitten by the neck. Sword Saint Tianshu shook his long sword, and the Fiend that was about to pounce on the disciple’s neck was caught. After the red line on the back of the neck was cut, he immediately snarled and jumped up with his face upright in pain.

The disciple jumped up and took advantage of this opening to kill him. He took the sword and sent it to the heart. When the Fiend wanted to take the chance to escape from the dead demonic beast’s body, the angry disciple gave a roar. He used all his strength to slash his sword and cut it into pieces. The Fiend could no longer condense into shape.

Sword Saint Tianshu could not help but click his tongue. “This child is about to be driven crazy. He really began to chop wildly, regardless of his manners.”

Lin Xuanzhi said, “It’s enough to kill the enemy. Why pay too much attention to dignity?”

Sword Saint Tianshu swept a glance over Lin Xuanzhi said, “That’s true, but how come I never see you have a trace of disrespect when you kill the enemy?”

Not to mention disrespectful, Lin Xuanzhi’s sword move to kill the enemy was almost like a painting. He seemed to be at ease and leisurely, and it was pleasing to the eye. There was only the word “beauty” and “cool” to describe it.

Lin Xuanzhi didn’t change his face, and said, “Shouldn’t a person be strict with oneself and treat others with more leniency?”

Sword Saint Tianshu, “….”

I just listened to you pretending to be cool here, to think I actually believed your nonsense.

Fiends were hard to kill. A moment later, a cry that made people feel numb came from somewhere. Those Fiends that were originally attached to the body of the demonic beasts and humans suddenly stopped their attack, and they all turned into black mist and flew out. In a moment, they were about to flee to the West.

Those disciples were caught off guard, and some reacted to kill them; but with a sword, these black mist masses only split into two halves from the middle, and then gathered together unscathed, and continued to flee towards the west.

“Damn!” They don’t know who cursed.

Before the sound fell, everyone saw a teal sword light flashing from a high place, rushing to the west at a speed beyond the naked eye, and the huge green lotus pattern flashed at once, with a “boom”. Those Fiends who were about to completely escape the circle of battle were shattered without leaving anything behind.

The disciples were shocked, and they all burst into cheers of the victory!

They were victorious. In their first head-to-head battle with the Fiends, they won a one-sided victory!

Sword Saint Tianshu shook his head and said, “How cruel ah.”

Lin Xuanzhi looked at the west, his brows darkened a little. “That thing is to the west.”

Sword Saint Tianshu said, “So that’s why we could kill these Fiends so easily. It turned out to be just some shrimp soldiers and crabs. You said the one that crossed the endless sea from Jade Ocean City and sneaked into the Ethereal City. That Fiend, shouldn’t it have grown to the point where it can split and control so many low-level Fiends at the same time?”

Lin Xuanzhi: “This matter is hard to say.”

Sword Saint Tianshu raised his eyebrows and asked, “You believe it can grow so fast?”

Lin Xuanzhi: “I don’t think there is only one Fiend in the West.”

Sword Saint Tianshu: “What should I do? It seems that I’m going to wet myself.”

Lin Xuanzhi swept him and said, “Then you stay here to deal with the matter, I will go to the West and have a look.”

Sword Saint Tianshu sighed, “Be careful. If there is more than one kind of Fiend of that level, don’t face it head-on.”

Lin Xuanzhi nodded. “Tell Ah Hen for me, I will come back soon, let him not worry about it.”

Sword Saint Tianshu’s gossip heart became untimely strong; He grabbed Lin Xuanzhi’s sleeves and prevented him from leaving. “The man who broke Prince Ye’s virginity, really is you?”

Lin Xuanzhi glanced at that hand coldly, and said, “Otherwise, who else is worthy?”

Sword Saint Tianshu: “…”

Lin Xuanzhi turned into a blue light and flew towards the west.

Sword Saint Tianshu looked at his disappeared figure. “So cold and so overbearing and arrogant, why is such a cute child like Yan Tianhen so blind that he actually took a fancy to you? He even glared at me. Wasn’t he the one who asked me to find 《Decline and Prosperity》?”

However, even though he complained so much, it was actually merely a complaint.

He jumped off the eaves, looked at the disciples whose hair and clothes had been torn up, then glanced at the black and red mixed blood of the broken limbs on the ground. “Little ones, was anyone injured just now?”

The leader of the patrol team stepped forward and choked. “Hall Master, three disciples were possessed by the Fiends and died. The others were not hurt because Huarong Sword Immortal came in time. Only a few younger martial brothers have suffered minor injuries.”

Sword Saint Tianshu nodded. “The disciples who were slightly injured will go back to get some medicinal pills. The rest of the disciples will return to the sect with me to report their duties after the handover of the patrol.”

“Yes sir!”
