This is a cultivation game, but the operation is bad

If the demonic cultivators of the Nine-Layer Demon Realm are like rats hiding in the countryside.

The demonic cultivators of Zhongzhou are like rats hiding in big cities.

Rats in big cities are always fatter than rats in the countryside.

Jiang Tongli closed the nine layers of the Demon Realm and wiped out the rats in the countryside. It's time to deal with the rats in the city.

The first step is to hitch a ride on the Taiyi Immortal Alliance's coattails.

Buddha, please bless the city rats with better droppings, so that the child can have a good New Year.

Jiang Liu followed his brothers from the Taiyi Immortal Alliance back to Taiyi Immortal City. In a huge and empty square, his gaze was involuntarily drawn to the vast array of teleportation arrays.

Each teleportation array corresponds to the headquarters of a demonic sect in the Central Plains.

Scattered here and there, large and small, there are dozens of teleportation arrays in this square.

Good heavens, could it be that the Taiyi Immortal Alliance has thoroughly searched the demonic forces hidden in Zhongzhou?

It seems that hiding under the nose of the Taiyi Immortal Alliance is more dangerous than hiding in the Ninth Layer Demon Realm. When the big shots are in a bad mood, they can easily wipe out a demonic force to vent their anger.

"Void Sect, teleportation array number thirteen, depart immediately!"

"Sheng Yuan Sect, teleportation array number twenty-six, depart immediately!"

"Senior Bai Yangzi, Teleportation Array Number Seven, wishing you a great victory!"

"Senior Powang, teleportation array number eleven, wishing you a great victory!"

"Qi Ling Sect, Teleportation Array No. 76, why are there so few of you? Are you dissatisfied with the arrangements made by the Taiyi Immortal Alliance?!"

Team after team of righteous cultivators, arranged by the Taiyi Immortal Alliance, stepped into the teleportation array and headed to the battlefield to fight against the demonic cultivators.

Whether these sects like it or not, they must send someone to express their stance.

The Taiyi Immortal Alliance issued a Demon-Slaying Order, but you didn't come. Are you colluding with demonic forces?
One wave after another of the righteous cultivators were sent away, while Jiang Liu and Bei Canglan were resting. His gaze wandered around and his attention was drawn to a giant tower in the very center of the square.

The attraction was a towering crystal tower, pale gold in color, covered with countless markings, and with a huge crystal floating at the top. The crystal was constantly updating with a dense list of names and numbers, which was the leaderboard for the Demon Extermination event.

At this moment, the top name on the leaderboard is "Ling Jiuxiao" with a terrifying 580000 points. The second place is "Su Qingyao" with 520000 points, and the third place is "Xiao Zhan" with 490000 points. His own 11000 points are not even enough to squeeze into the top 1,000.

"These top-ranked cultivators are actually this terrifyingly powerful?"

Jiang Liu was startled, his mind filled with questions.

Which gang owns all these names?
Oh, it's an NPC. Never mind then.

Damn it!

NPCs are also trying to steal event rewards! What kind of game lets NPCs compete with players for profits?
"Young friend Ling is a leading figure among the younger generation of the Immortal Alliance. He is not even a hundred years old yet, but he has already reached the Great Perfection of the Integration Realm. Young friends Su and Xiao are also at the Great Perfection of the Integration Realm. They are currently clearing out the Ten Thousand Demon Valley in the western part of Central Continent. There are a large number of demonic cultivators there, so their points are naturally increasing quickly."

Bei Canglan spoke with a hint of pride, then patted Jiang Liu on the shoulder: "Young friend Jiang, you are so young yet you were able to kill the Ancient Demon Sect Master who was at the Great Perfection of the Integration Realm. You have boundless potential. Given time, you may very well be able to compete with them."

Jiang Liu: “.”

Not even a hundred years old, yet the union is complete!
This is only possible in a game. In the real world of cultivation, even the son of an immortal wouldn't level up this quickly!

Players level up through their own hard work, while NPCs level up by having the developers adjust their data; both sides have a bright future.

Exactly! You've raised a young player's cultivation level to the Great Perfection of the Integration Realm. Isn't that a slap in the face to us players?
Damn planner, you've got your backside all wrong!
Don't forget, NPCs are your planners' sons, but we players are your planners' fathers!
Jiang Liu thought to himself, but didn't reply. What could he say?

Currently, we can see NPCs who are not over 100 years old and have reached the Great Perfection stage. Later in the game, we will probably see NPCs who are only 20 years old and have reached the Great Perfection stage.

An NPC who is only twenty years old, has reached the Great Perfection of the Mahayana stage, and is only one step away from ascension!

Don't ask, the answer is he was born with the body of an immortal, and began to break through his limits even in the womb. He has the strongest talent in the cultivation world.

After resting for less than ten minutes, they had to set off again.

"Elder Bei!"

A group of righteous cultivators approached. The leader was a burly man with a resolute face and a broad-backed longsword at his waist. He also possessed the aura of a Great Perfection of the Integration Realm. He said to Bei Canglan, "We have ascertained the situation at the Black Heaven Sect. The sect leader, Black Fiend Demon Lord, is extremely powerful. He also has five elders at the late Integration Realm under his command, and there are more than a thousand other demonic cultivators. When shall we set off?"

"There's no time to lose, let's set off immediately!"

As soon as Bei Canglan finished speaking, he stepped into the teleportation array first, then turned to the many righteous cultivators and said in a deep voice.

"The Alliance Leader has issued the Demon-Slaying Order; we must exert all our strength to eradicate the demonic path!"

"I, Bei Canglan, will lead the attack!"

"Slay the demons! Slay the demons! Slay the demons!"

The numerous righteous cultivators roared in unison and followed Bei Canglan into the teleportation array.

Jiang Liu didn't hesitate and leaped into the teleportation array.

As Bei Canglan made a hand seal, the teleportation array suddenly burst out with intense black light. The runes at the array's core spun rapidly, the surrounding space began to distort, and a powerful pulling force came through. The next second, the scene before them completely changed.

The Black Heaven Sect is located in a mountain range shrouded in black mist all year round. The mountain range is rugged and treacherous, with jagged rocks, and the air is filled with a strong smell of blood and demonic energy, which is in stark contrast to the holiness of Taiyi Immortal City.

The teleportation array landed in an open area outside the Black Heaven Sect's mountain gate. As soon as they landed, they heard sounds of fighting coming from inside the mountain gate.

"It seems we're not the only ones eyeing the Black Sky Sect."

Bei Canglan's eyes narrowed, and he drew his long sword, declaring loudly, "Everyone, follow me and charge in! We must annihilate the Black Heaven Sect within one hour!"

"kill!"

Hundreds of cultivators from the Immortal Alliance shouted in unison, their spiritual energy surging as they charged towards the Black Heaven Sect's mountain gate like tigers descending a mountain.

Jiang Liu followed closely behind, his Hunyuan Tianling Sword already drawn, the azure spiritual light surrounding the sword standing out conspicuously in the black mist.

As soon as they rushed to the mountain gate, they saw two groups of people fighting fiercely. One side was the Immortal Alliance cultivators dressed in blue Taoist robes, and the other side was the Black Heaven Sect disciples dressed in black tight-fitting clothes and surrounded by demonic energy. The two sides exchanged blows, their magical weapons roared, and their sword energy and demonic energy intertwined and collided. Blood stained the stone steps in front of the mountain gate.

"court death!"

A demonic cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage sensed Jiang Liu's approach, grinned maliciously, and swung a demonic blade covered in barbs, its blade shrouded in intense demonic energy, aiming for Jiang Liu's head.

How dare a mere mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator come to my Black Heaven Sect to cause trouble?

act recklessly!

Jiang Liu's eyes turned cold. Without dodging or avoiding, he channeled his spiritual energy into the sword and unleashed a horizontal slash.

The cyan sword light, like a bolt of lightning, collided with the demonic blade in an instant!
"Ordinary sword energy!"

With a loud clang, the demonic blade was sent flying, and the demonic cultivator was also struck by the backlash of the sword energy. A deep wound appeared on his chest, blood gushing out as he flew back several feet away, already lifeless when he landed.

[You have killed one demonic cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, and gained 10000 Demon-Slaying Points.]

Ha, killing a monster at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, I don't even need to use the Five Elements Revolving Sword.

The system notification sounded in his mind. Without pausing, Jiang Liu flashed and charged into the group of demonic cultivators.

"Five Elements Revolving Sword!"

"Three Elements Flying Immortal Sword!"

"Ordinary sword energy!"

Massacre! Massacre! Massacre!

[You have killed one demonic cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, and gained 10000 Demon-Slaying Points.]

[You have killed one demonic cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, and gained 10000 Demon-Slaying Points.]

What a trashy Black Heaven Sect! It's full of Nascent Soul stage demonic cultivators. Where are the Integration stage cultivators? Come out and fight!

A demonic cultivator at the Integration Stage has arrived!

"Where did this brat come from, daring to cause trouble in the Black Heaven Sect!"

A furious shout rang out, and a fat demonic cultivator arrived from the sky, his body churning with demonic energy. He held a huge spiked club in his hand, and his aura was clearly that of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

This was none other than Elder Bloodfang, one of the five elders of the Black Sky Sect.

Seeing his disciples being slaughtered by Jiang Liu, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he swung his spiked club at Jiang Liu with a whistling sound. The terrifying power contained in the club caused ripples in the surrounding air.

Jiang Liu's expression hardened, a cold smile appeared on his face, and he swung his sword backhand!
"Five Elements Revolving Sword!"

The upright crescent moon struck Bloodfang Elder directly!
"Humph, what a small trick!"

Elder Bloodfang snorted coldly, flicked his wrist, and swung his spiked club out horizontally, intending to shatter Jiang Liu's Moon-Turning Technique.

But he didn't expect Jiang Liu's Moon Turning Technique to be so fast. Before the spiked club could even hit, the sword energy had already reached him.

Elder Bloodfang was startled and hurriedly dodged to the side, but he was still a step too slow. His shoulder was slashed open by the sword light, leaving a deep wound that exposed the bone, and black blood gushed out.

"Ah! I'm going to kill you!"

Elder Bloodfang cried out in pain, his eyes filled with even greater killing intent, and the demonic energy within his body surged wildly!
He suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a cloud of black blood mist. The blood mist instantly transformed into several giant bats upon landing, which swooped towards Jiang Liu. Each bat exuded the aura of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

"Netherworld Blood Bat? Interesting."

Jiang Liu's lips curled into a cold smile. He twirled his longsword, and a burst of azure sword light erupted, forming a huge sword circle that enveloped all the approaching Netherworld Blood Bats.

With a flash of sword light, the bats were slashed into pieces and vanished into black smoke.

Taking advantage of this brief moment, Elder Bloodfang rushed to Jiang Liu's side and slammed his spiked club down again. This time, he used all his strength, and the club was covered with strange runes, exuding a destructive aura.

"Ten Directions Suppressing Fist!"

One punch was thrown, and the world changed color!

With a crisp "crack," Elder Bloodfang's spiked club was cleaved in two, and the force of the punch, undiminished, slammed directly into his chest.

Elder Bloodfang's pupils constricted sharply, and he spat out a mouthful of black blood. His body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily onto the mountain gate with a loud bang. The huge stone of the mountain gate instantly collapsed, burying him inside.

[You have killed one late-stage Nascent Soul demon cultivator, gaining 100000 Demon Slayer Points]

You have collected 21214 spirit stones.

After dealing with Elder Bloodfang, Jiang Liu didn't stop, turning his gaze to the depths of the Black Heaven Sect.

The demonic energy was most concentrated there, clearly the place where the Black Fiend Demon Lord resided.

The mobs and elders are no longer enough for him; he wants to kill the BOSS!

With a flash, he flew towards the depths of the sect.

At this moment, in front of the main hall of the Black Heaven Sect, Bei Canglan was engaged in a fierce battle with a man dressed in black robes with a sinister face.

The man was none other than Black Demon Lord, the sect leader of the Black Heaven Sect. He held a jet-black spear in his hand, with several black venomous snake phantoms wrapped around its shaft. Each attack carried potent poison and immense power. Although Bei Canglan had the upper hand, he found it difficult to subdue him for the time being.

"Bei Canglan, your Taiyi Immortal Alliance has gone too far! My Black Heaven Sect has never interfered with your affairs, why do you want to exterminate us?"

Black Demon Lord roared, sweeping his spear to force Bei Canglan back, his eyes filled with resentment.

"You demonic villains deserve to be killed by everyone! Your Black Heaven Sect has committed countless atrocities in the Central Continent, slaughtering civilians and harming cultivators. Today is your death day!"

Bei Canglan spoke with righteous indignation, thrusting his longsword out once more. The golden spiritual energy contained within the sword shone as brightly as the sun, suppressing the demonic energy of the Black Fiend Demon Lord.

"Fuck your motherfucker!"

Enraged by Bei Canglan's words, Black Demon Lord vomited blood and cursed, "My Black Heaven Sect has never appeared in the world for a thousand years. When have we ever committed so many evils in the Central Plains!"

"Slaughtering civilians? The lowest level of my disciples is the Nascent Soul Realm. What's the point of slaughtering civilians!"

Bei Canglan sneered: "How would I know what use it is? I'm not a demonic cultivator!"

"A fabricated charge! A fabricated charge!"

While fighting Bei Canglan, the Black Fiend Demon Lord cursed loudly, "Righteous cultivators! Utterly hypocritical! Heaven is unjust! Heaven is unjust!"

When powerful individuals clash, the outcome can be decided in just a few rounds.

Although both Black Demon Lord and Bei Canglan are at the Great Perfection of the Integration Realm, there are still differences between them.

How could a rat in the gutter possibly compare to a big shot from the Taiyi Immortal Alliance?

In just a few minutes, the Black Demon Lord's demonic energy became increasingly thin, and several wounds appeared on his body, clearly indicating that he was at his last gasp.

Bei Canglan, on the other hand, still exuded a powerful aura, and with each swing of his longsword, every move was deadly.

"Suffer to death!"

Bei Canglan shouted loudly, his spiritual energy surged, and his longsword transformed into a golden rainbow, piercing towards the Black Fiend Demon Lord!

"This is outrageous! You forced me to do this!"

A hint of despair flashed in the eyes of the Black Demon Lord. He knew he could not withstand this sword strike, so he simply stopped defending and let his demonic energy burn wildly, intending to self-destruct!

"Let's die together! In my next life, I, the sect leader, will also be a righteous cultivator!"

Although the Black Demon Lord could not defeat Bei Canglan, he was still a Great Perfection of the Integration Realm. If a Great Perfection of the Integration Realm were to self-destruct, its power would be enough to level a radius of a thousand miles!
At that time, Bei Canglan might not die, but the righteous cultivators in the vicinity would probably be doomed.

"not good!"

Bei Canglan's expression changed, and he tried to retreat, but it was too late.

At this critical moment, a sword light flashed through the air like lightning, accurately striking the Black Demon Lord's dantian!
"Three Elements Flying Immortal Sword!"

The demonic energy burning within the Black Demon Lord's body instantly became chaotic, and the momentum of his self-destruction was forcibly interrupted. He spat out a mouthful of black blood and looked behind him in disbelief.

"you!"

His self-destruction was actually interrupted by a mere mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator!

"I am not reconciled! I am not reconciled!"

The Black Demon Lord shouted twice, then tilted his head and neck, and died.

[You have killed one Great Perfection Demonic Cultivator, gaining 100000 Demon-Slaying Points]

[System Notification: The Black Heaven Sect Master is dead. Fewer than fifty demonic cultivators remain. The Black Heaven Sect's stronghold is about to be destroyed.]

"Thank you very much, young friend Jiang!"

Bei Canglan breathed a sigh of relief, strode forward, and with a swipe of his longsword, severed the head of the Black Fiend Demon Lord.

He is a big shot in the Taiyi Immortal Alliance and does not participate in the competition for the Demon Slayer Ranking, but he has his own merits.

And the head of the Black Fiend Demon Lord, the sect leader of the Demonic Sect, was his achievement. (End of this chapter)
