Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 73 Killing Demons

The night in the wild was so quiet that it made people feel a little uneasy. The girl didn't even dare to close her eyes to rest. Her brother was sleepy and fell asleep leaning on her.

"Go to bed early, we will take turns to keep watch." Situ Chan said to the girl. She naturally saw the other party's distrust, but the brother and sister were also pitiful people. It was normal for them to be wary when their family members were harmed by demons.

However, as monster hunters, they often travel between cities and the wilderness and have seen too many tragedies. In this world where monsters are rampant, ordinary people live a miserable life.

The girl nodded gently and closed her eyes slightly.

"Third sister, you should take a rest too. I will keep watch." Han Zong said. In the wild, one needs to be vigilant at all times.

Nighttime is much more dangerous than daytime.

People are afraid of demons, but demons are actually also afraid of practitioners and will be relatively restrained during the day.

"Brother is tired too, let me do it." Situ Chan said. Han Zong did not argue and said, "Okay, you go first."

As he said this, he leaned aside to rest.

Situ Chan glanced around and saw Li Fan sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, looking very self-conscious.

Li Fan was practicing. At this moment, his soul left his body and came outside to absorb the light of the stars.

After leaving Lishan, he practiced every day. His cultivation had broken through the realm of refining the spirit and entered the third realm of out-of-body cultivation.

In the out-of-body state, the soul can leave the body.

The stronger your cultivation, the farther your soul can leave your body.

The light of the stars and the moon illuminates the soul, and the shadow of the soul sits cross-legged in the air.

At this moment, he seemed to have heard some noise, and Li Fan's soul suddenly moved and floated towards a distant direction.

In that direction, Li Fan's soul saw people talking.

No, it was a conversation between a human and a demon.

After a while, they saw many figures coming towards them, all of them were monsters.

And those several humans still remained where they were.

"The human heart is like a devil." Li Fan said in his heart, and his soul returned to his body.

At this time, Situ Chan also heard the noise. A gust of wind blew outside, causing the already broken wooden door to make a sound.

"Evil spirit!"

A cold light flashed in Situ Chan's eyes. Han Zong and Yin Qing also opened their eyes and looked outside, very alert.

They live on the edge of a knife, so they have to be more sensitive, especially to evil spirits.

The girl in the corner also opened her eyes. She was obviously not asleep. Her body was trembling slightly and she curled up into a ball.

"I'll take care of it." Situ Chan raised her weapon, opened the door and walked out, but after just a moment, she retreated back into the house and said, "Big Brother, Second Brother, I'm afraid there's trouble."

She can't solve it!
Han Zong and Yin Qing both stood up. Han Zong walked forward first, took off the big knife on his back, and stared outside.

On both sides, many monsters were seen getting restless, and right in front, a figure was walking upright, with a sheep's face and a human body, not much different from a human.

"Third realm." Han Zong's eyes were solemn. This kind of shapeshifting ability was that of a third realm demon.

The sheep demon's eyes were as small as a slit as it stared at the few people, and then its gaze fell on the girl in the house.

"Second brother, third sister, please look after them as well." Han Zong said. Yin Qing stood on the side of the siblings, while Situ Chan stood on the side of Li Fan and the others.

"These two guys are sleeping so soundly." Situ Chan thought to herself. She saw Li Fan sitting there with his eyes closed and not moving, while Liu Ji's body was curled up softly behind him, and she had no idea what was happening in the outside world.

Situ Chan didn't know whether they were pretending.

However, there are quite a few demons and monsters, and some of them need to be dealt with first.

Situ Chan drew her bow and put an arrow on it. A gust of wind wrapped around her and fell on the bow and arrow at the same time. She was a Qi-cultivating practitioner who practiced the wind attribute. The power of wind attribute spells combined with the bow and arrow would be multiplied.

"Buzz..." The bowstring trembled, and the arrow flew away with the sound of the wind, crossing the night sky. A scream was heard in the darkness, and the bow and arrow accurately hit the eye of a pig demon.

Han Zong strode towards the sheep monster with a big knife in his hand. A demonic aura swept out of the sheep monster, and suddenly many sheep monsters appeared in front of Han Zong.

"Demon magic and illusion."

Han Zong's eyes darkened. Demons that practiced magic were more difficult to deal with.

His sword slashed down like thunder, and several phantoms were torn into pieces.

He swung his sword again, but saw Situ Chan appear in front of him, and Han Zong put away the sword instantly.

"No..." Han Zong suddenly realized that something was wrong. How could his third sister appear in front of him? It was an illusion.

His knife continued to chop forward, and indeed, it tore the phantom into pieces.

However, many Situ Chan suddenly appeared around him and surrounded him.

Han Zong seemed to have lost his sense of direction. The light at night was already dim, and he was lost under the illusion. He held the knife in his hand, not knowing where to start.

"Brother, be careful." Situ Chan's voice came, and a fox demon holding a sharp sword stabbed out from behind Han Zong, but at this moment, Situ Chan's arrow missed, and the fox demon suddenly swung the sword to block it.

With a flash of the knife, Han Zong's knife directly killed the fox demon.

The surrounding demons became even more violent and rushed towards Situ Chan frantically. A terrifying demonic aura filled the air. In the darkness, the sheep demon's body rapidly grew larger and turned into a huge black sheep. It held a scarlet demonic sword and slashed towards Han Zong.

Han Zong's sword also slashed out, but the demon's power was too strong, and Han Zong's body was chopped away, smashing the wooden door. Situ Chan and Yin Qing were also forced to retreat back into the hut.

The girl in the corner was shaking violently, with fear in her eyes.

The sheep demon's huge body continued to move forward, pressing towards Han Zong and his companions.

"Bang..." A huge body fell from the roof above Situ Chan. Situ Chan had just shot an arrow forward and missed. Her face turned extremely ugly.

"Third sister." Han Zong shouted. A cold light shone in his eyes, which was the weapon in the hands of the monster above his head.

"Om."

Another light appeared in the darkness. Situ Chan felt it was a bit dazzling, and then she saw the light directly piercing into the body of the demon in the sky.

With a loud bang, the demon fell in front of her.

Situ Chan took a deep breath and saw clearly that the weapon stuck in the demon's body was a sword.

Sword... She turned around and saw Li Fan opened his eyes, stood up and walked towards her.

Practitioners in the Spirit Refining Realm can control objects.

Li Fan, is he also a cultivator in the Spirit Refining Realm?

Li Fan walked slowly to Situ Chan and Han Zong, pulled the sword out of the monster, looked up at the sheep monster in front of him, and the sheep monster also looked down at him with a murderous look in his eyes.

"Brother Xiaofan, please stand back. This is a great demon from the third realm." Han Zong stepped forward and said.

"Brother Han, the demon pill belongs to me."

Li Fan opened his mouth and spoke, and as soon as he finished speaking, the sword in his hand flew out like lightning, instantly cutting the neck of a monster, and blood splattered out.

The sword did not stop and continued to move back and forth.

"Puff puff……"

The demons' screams continued to be heard, and in a flash, the sword flew back to Li Fan's hand, and all the demons outside fell down.

"This……"

Han Zong was shocked.

Although cultivators in the Spirit Refining Realm can control objects, can they have such fast speed and terrifying attack power?

The sheep demon turned his head and took a look, and was stunned for a moment. Then a terrifying demonic aura burst out, and he stared at the human in front of him, and slashed towards Li Fan with the knife in his hand.

Li Fan jumped up with a puff sound. Han Zong and the others only saw a beam of light, and then they saw the huge head of the sheep monster flying up.

Li Fan fell to the ground, and the sheep demon's huge body collapsed with a loud bang. Blood gushed out and the sword was stained with blood.

Situ Chan and Han Zong were both stunned where they were. Before they could come to their senses, they saw Li Fan walk forward, pierce the sword into the sheep monster's body, break open its body and take out the demon pill.

Along the way, he killed many monsters, and all the monster pills were absorbed and used up by him.

After Li Fan took all the demon pills, he returned to the dilapidated house and continued to sit cross-legged, preparing to practice.

Situ Chan looked at Li Fan with a strange look in her eyes.

What level of cultivation is this?
She couldn't tell at all.

Han Zong hadn't come back to his senses yet. How old was Li Fan? He looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old.

Taking another look at the demon corpses all over the ground, Han Zong was speechless for a moment.

This is, the out-of-body state?

This sheep monster is a great monster of the third realm. Although it is not particularly powerful, it is impossible for a person in the Spirit Refining Realm to kill it with one sword.

Seventeen years old in the out-of-body state? ?

"If Brother Han and Sister Chan need demon pills for cultivation, they can pick a few." The area in front of Li Fan was filled with demon pills that had just been taken from the demons.

Some practitioners can use demon pills to practice. Although the demons were killed by him, Han Zong is a good man, so it’s okay to give him a few pills.

Moreover, he did not attack the human practitioners in the dark outside. The other party should "send" demon pills to him. It seems that he can gain a lot from this trip.

"No need. The demons were all killed by Brother Xiaofan. How can we take the demon pill?" Han Zong refused. If Li Fan had not taken action, it would be questionable whether they could survive. Naturally, it was impossible for them to take Li Fan's demon pill.

Although Li Fan doesn't mind, they can't be ungrateful.

Li Fan didn't care much about the demon pill, but for those people who lived on the edge of a knife, the demon pill was very precious.

"There are quite a few here, so you don't have to be polite, Brother Han." Li Fan saw Situ Chan looking at him, so he said, "Sister Chan, are you here to pick?"

Situ Chan hesitated for a moment, but heard Yin Qing beside her say, "In that case, thank you, Brother Xiaofan."

As he said this, he pulled Situ Chan forward, squatted down, and very unceremoniously picked out a few demon pills. He really needed demon pills for his practice.

Li Fan glanced at him and didn't say much.

Although Situ Chan appeared to be generous, she was not as thick-skinned as Yin Qing. She only took one, then looked up at the young man in front of her and asked with a smile, "A practitioner in the Out-of-Body Realm?"

She was really curious.

Li Fan nodded: "I just broke through not long ago."

There was a glimmer of surprise in Situ Chan's beautiful eyes. Although she had some guesses in her mind, she was still a little shocked when she saw Li Fan confirm it. Li Fan was too young.

"It would be better if Sister Chan was a few years younger." Situ Chan joked, and then stood up and left, handing the selected demon pill to Han Zong and said, "Brother, this demon pill is suitable for your cultivation."

"Third sister." Han Zong looked at her.

"Brother, you also know that I can't use it." Situ Chan stuffed it to Han Zong, while Yin Qing took the demon pill and walked to a corner, with no intention of sharing. This shows the personalities of the three people.

However, among these three people, Han Zong and Situ Chan obviously have a better relationship.

In the corner, the girl quietly watched everything that was happening in front of her, and remembered it silently in her heart.

Li Fan closed his eyes and directly absorbed the demon pill to practice. With his current level, he could control the leakage of demonic energy, so it didn't matter if Han Zong and the others saw it.

The demon pills were quickly digested, and Li Fan and the "mysterious" thing in his body had now reached a state of balance and no longer disturbed each other. However, Li Fan would still offer demon pills for nourishment, but at the same time, some of the magic power would belong to him and be integrated into his body.
