Gou Dao Changsheng: Starting from the Reincarnation of a Demon Cultivator

Chapter 870 Testing the Waters with a Suspended Sword, Engaging in a Battle of Wits to Capture the Enemy

A gray, demonic aura mixed with golden threads rolled like clouds and mist, accompanied by a wild and untamed energy, rushing towards them.

"Golden Eyed Ape King?"

"The Desolate Demon King?"

Jiuqu and Qin Yu looked astonished as they stared at the two demon kings approaching.

"How dare they do this, venturing deep into the human territory without fear of being killed and having their cores taken?"

"Zheng!"

From the southwest, the clanging of swords echoed as several sword lights, carrying cultivators, drew ever closer. Even before the sharp sword light arrived, it sent chills down one's spine.

"Sword cultivator?"

Qin Yu's expression was solemn, and the aura within his sword light was not concealed, its murderous intent soaring to the sky.

"There's more than one Grandmaster of Swordsmanship?"

"Buzz!"

A faint fragrance of grass and trees wafted up, and on the brown spiritual clouds covering an acre or so, cultivators, some holding spiritual hoes and others carrying baskets on their backs, wearing robes of spiritual farmers, were also approaching Xuan Yang Mountain.

"The Great Yu Nascent Soul Sect, Medicine King Valley?"

Qin Yu's expression was extremely solemn, and he snapped back to reality in a daze.

"That sword cultivator must be it."

"Zheng!"

The clanging of swords echoed, and the silvery light dissipated, revealing a young man with sword-like eyebrows, dressed in purple robes with sword sleeves, standing with his hands behind his back.

He gazed at the hazy, demonic clouds, raising an eyebrow slightly.

"Damn you beast!"

"Zheng!"

A seven-foot-long sword swam out from his sleeve, transforming into a silver thread that hurtled towards the Golden-Eyed Ape King and Gu Jiushang.

"furious!"

The Golden-Eyed Ape King roared to the sky, his mane flying, and held a dark iron staff, forged to eyebrow length, in his palm.

"kill!"

"Oh!"

The staff, wreathed in demonic energy, transformed into streaks of afterimages as it slammed down.

Gu Jiushang frowned slightly, stood up, and golden threads appeared on his sharp claws, turning into layers of nets that fell down.

"Divine Power: Binding Net."

"One is at the sixth level of Core Formation, and the other at the fifth level. I never expected that coming to this barren land of Great Yun would yield such a gain."

A gust of wind howled, whipping the robes of the monks. With a flick of his finger, Li Kong shattered the dark staff shadow with a silver sword light, splitting it in two.

The sword light differentiates!

Two sword lights flashed with a cold light, and a crimson-black battle armor appeared on the Golden-Eyed Ape King's robust body.

"Zheng! Zheng! Zheng!"

Sparks flew, the sound of metal clashing was deafening, and the silver sword light carved cracks into the crimson-black armor.

Upon seeing this, Li Kong frowned and muttered something under his breath.

"Those with thick skin and flesh should be killed first, especially those with lower cultivation levels."

"Zheng!"

The two sword lights merged and headed straight for Gu Jiushang's head. With the cultivation of a Great True Person, wielding a high-grade magic weapon, killing a demon king at the fifth level of Core Formation was a piece of cake.

"Not good!" Gu Jiushang's expression turned solemn. With a roar, he transformed into a majestic and ferocious golden-armored lion, with flowing golden runes forming a net that caught him.

"Zheng!"

The sword rang out with a clang, easily tearing through layers of netting.

Above a brown spiritual cloud, Li Tan, dressed in a blue-brown robe, with a small, exquisite sickle hanging at his waist, was surrounded by the faint fragrance of spiritual grain.

"Huai Jun's temperament is still as fierce as ever. He let Li Kong make a move in front of Xuan Yang Mountain's gate. Does he think that there is no one else in the sect?"

He took half a step behind him, and Zhong Zheng, with a respectful expression, chuckled softly.

"The Great Cloud Immortal Cultivation Realm was originally ceded and abandoned by the Great Yu Dynasty to serve as a buffer zone between the human and demon races."

The area was already extremely barren, with all the near-fourth-tier spiritual veins exhausted, and there were not even ten third-tier spiritual veins left.

The ability to give birth to a Nascent Soul True Monarch has already exhausted the accumulated fortune.

Among the three heroes of Xuanyang, neither Tian Quezi, the fearsome master of divination, nor Huang Guangsheng, who was skilled in sacrificial arts, could make a move even if they had not passed away.

Of the remaining cultivators, who did they rely on? The so-called Sect Leader, unable to break through to the sixth level of Core Formation, was relying on the power of a magic weapon?

"However, those two demon kings cannot be allowed to fall into Junhuai's hands." Feeling the sharp divine sense lingering around him, Litan smiled, but his tone was anything but polite.

Xuan Yang Mountain is guarded by the Crimson Eyebrow True Lord, but unless he wants to make an enemy of Medicine King Valley, he will not easily take action for the demon race.

"Junior Brother Zhong Zheng, you and Li Kong from Xuanjian Mountain should take down that demon king together."

A mid-grade third-tier demon king is also a good opportunity.

"Yes!

"As Brother Li commands!"

Zhong Zheng's eyes lit up with excitement. After bowing deeply, he stepped out of the brown spiritual cloud and summoned a crimson-yellow furnace, which he then smashed down. "Junior Brother Li, I, Zhong, will gladly accept this Golden-Eyed Ape King."

"Humph!"

Li Kong snorted coldly, his purple robes fluttering, and his magical power surged even faster.

The Nine-Bend Immortal stood on the long river of yellow sand, looking at Qin Yu and Li Heng with a half-smile, muttering to himself.

'The Great Yu Nascent Soul Sect is so arrogant, I wonder if Xuan Yang Mountain can tolerate it or not?'
Nascent Soul True Monarchs are reluctant to act due to pride; if they allow the Demon King to fall, the Sudu Mountain will face another demonic surge.

"presumptuous!"

Just as the sword light was about to severely injure Gu Jiushang, a furious shout came from the Five Extremes Peak.

Slender, emerald-green Bodhi branches shot out, swaying in the wind like willows, their verdant twigs transforming into whip-like shadows as they lashed down.

"A flawed high-grade magic weapon?" Li Kong looked disdainful, his divine sense flowing, and a sword light swept towards the branch.

"Clang!" The whip shadow was instantly severed, and he showed disdain.

"Having been bullying others in this barren land of Dayun for so long, they've become increasingly arrogant and ignorant of their own limitations."

"Ok?"

"Buzz!"

The whip's shadow shattered and scattered, its azure light transforming into meridian threads. In an instant, old skin grew back, turning into vines that continued to spread.

Thick old vines spread out, twisting and turning in the air, weaving into cages.

"Tread! Tread! Tread!"

With steady footsteps, Fang Yi, wearing a lotus crown and a blue cloud robe, walked straight down from the top of the Five Extremes Peak.

For every lotus that blooms, another will wither. He walks with lotus blossoms, his robes fluttering, surrounded by a withered aura, carrying the weight of countless years.

"Guests are always welcome; outsiders cannot rule our Xuan Yang territory."

"You!" Li Kong's face turned fierce as he unleashed a series of magical techniques, his fingertips flashing like afterimages.

"Mysterious Gold Spirit-Slaying Sword, kill them all!"

Gazing at the sword light that was still emitting malevolent energy and surging with power; its precious light shone brightly, and its momentum was no less than that of the Yellow Jade Furnace.

Fang Yi raised an eyebrow and said in a deep voice, "If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences."

"Edict!"

A circular, yet not quite round, and flat, seal appeared between his brows, and wisps of dim, withered spiritual light emanated from his palm.

He pointed with his fingertip. "The Method of Mutual Destruction of Yi Wood"

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

Strands of silk threads hung down from the twisted ancient vines formed from the Bodhi tree branch, swaying in the wind like willow branches, looking frail and delicate.

In a short while, following the sword light and the furnace, they entangled themselves around Li Kong of Suspended Sword Mountain and Zhong Zheng of Medicine King Valley.

"This is..." Li Kongjian's heart trembled, and a sense of threat came from him.

"Not good!" Feeling his energy channels completely locked, his vibrant life force flowed backward along with his energy channels.

"Too late." Fang Yi changed his hand seals and murmured softly, "Explode!"

"boom!"

Layer upon layer of spiritual tide surged forth, and Li Kong let out a muffled groan as his magical power became unstable, causing his magic sword to fall from the sword light.

"Wow!"

A blurry figure appeared behind him without his noticing. Fang Yi's dark eyes narrowed, turning cold and ruthless.

"Edict!"

"Buzz!"

A giant puppet hand, surrounded by gray spiritual light and covered with armor plates, with a chilling aura, reached out.

The large hand moved seemingly slowly but actually with great speed, evolving into ancient and simple runes.

"Buzz!"

The giant hand instantly tore through the sword light and slammed down towards Li Kong's head.

"enough!"

A golden sword light flashed, and Junhuai Sword Master, who had been watching from the sidelines for a long time, could no longer allow one of his Grand Masters to be seriously injured.

"That's enough!"

"Is this the end?" Fang Yi's lips curled into a mocking smile.

"Daydreaming!"

"Crash!"

Within the Abyss Sea Dharma Body, magical power surged like a mighty river, and the energy within the five fingers increased by another three-tenths.

"Oh!"

"Zheng!"

"boom"

The spiritual tide surged and flowed in all directions. Sensing the pure and enduring energy, like the vigorous ancient tree, Li Tan's expression turned serious.
