Who gave you permission to refine demons like this?

Attack? Rescue?

Lin Sheng immediately asked, "What exactly happened?"

"The batch of demonic materials used for alchemy needed to be delivered urgently, but they were attacked by demons while passing through the mountain road."

"The entire transport convoy is now surrounded by demons, and the Martial Arts Division cannot arrive in time. Taoyuan Post Station is the closest to them, so we need to rescue them immediately."

Wu Rang quickly explained the whole situation.

"How strong is the opponent?"

"The messenger just said that the highest realm is the Pure Blood Realm."

Lin Sheng was a little emotional, wondering why he always seemed to encounter situations where he was fighting monsters much stronger than himself.

Ma Zhaoshan hurriedly said, "I know this is not Fellow Daoist Lin's responsibility, but the situation is critical right now, and I hope Fellow Daoist Lin can lend a hand."

"I will definitely repay you handsomely afterward!"

Lin Sheng said, "Ma Sucheng is too serious. I am here to act in the camp. How can I shirk my responsibility when something happens?"

Moreover, as disciples of the dojo, they have a duty to deal with local demons.

Gripping the knife, Lin Sheng went out with the two men.

After a short while, Lin Sheng finished packing up and, like the other cultivators in the camp, took his belongings and mounted his horse.

The others knew that Lin Sheng came from a dojo and was quite skilled, so they weren't too surprised by his joining and simply nodded in acknowledgment.

Wan Sha and Zhao Fengnian, the only Pure Blood Realm cultivator in the camp, greeted Lin Sheng.

The group mounted their horses and rode off towards their destination.

As the horse galloped by, they not only felt the whistling wind but also heard Zhao Fengnian's voice transmission.

"The demons surrounding the transport convoy are similar to the Blood Demon and are not easy to deal with. Therefore, everyone must remember not to scatter and cooperate to kill the demons."

"The demons in the Pure Blood Realm will be dealt with by me and the cultivators in the transport team; the rest are up to you."

Everyone agreed upon hearing this, as they all had a clear understanding of their own abilities.

"Leader Lin." Zhao Fengnian transmitted his voice to Lin Sheng alone.

"I know you are quite strong, probably second only to me among everyone."

"If possible, I hope that you can protect the surrounding area when you have the capacity."

"I will give you the appropriate reward afterward, thank you very much."

Lin Sheng's internal energy was no longer what it used to be, and he had also learned to transmit his voice, so he replied, "We are both in the same camp, Fellow Daoist Zhao, there's no need for this. Don't worry, I won't stand by and watch you die."

"I feel at ease knowing you said that."

After that, the group focused on riding their horses and quickened their pace.

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they approached their destination and could even hear the sounds of fighting.

Lin Sheng saw a figure looming in the woods from afar.

"careful!!"

Zhao Fengnian shouted a reminder, clenched his fists, and two hand axes appeared in his hands. He then pushed off with his feet and soared into the air.

Bang!

A loud thud was heard, startling the horses, and only then did everyone see what had attacked them.

A huge figure could be seen, its entire body, from head to toe, was composed of blood-red liquid, with empty eyes, and it roared with its mouth open.

No wonder it's considered a Blood Demon; anyone who sees it would probably mistake this crimson monster for a Blood Demon at first glance.

Although they looked similar and weren't as troublesome as the Blood Demon, none of the group underestimated them.

The only reason was that they sensed the other party's undisguised aura, which was undoubtedly that of a Pure Blood Realm cultivator, and a relatively strong one at that. If classified according to the demon realm, they would belong to the second realm.

Zhao Fengnian shouted, "Don't stop! I'll hold him off, the rest of you keep going! Don't scatter!"

Gripping his weapon tightly, Zhao Fengnian charged forward once more.

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately rode their horses around the two who were locked in fierce combat. Several times, the demons tried to reach out and grab these beings weaker than themselves, but each time their arms were severed by a series of powerful slashes, causing their plans to fall through.

The demon roared, its arms constantly regenerating, and it engaged in a fierce battle with Zhao Fengnian!

The closer he got to Lin Sheng, the stronger the stench of blood became, and he could also see the sticky bloodstains around him. He remained focused, paying attention to his surroundings.

call out!

Lin Sheng immediately ducked to avoid it, and a jet of blood flew over his head, piercing through the trees one after another.

Before he could make any further move, the horse suddenly collapsed, and a pool of blood spread across the ground, with several bloody hands reaching out to grab the reins and hooves.

not good!

Lin Sheng immediately used his Shadow Bee technique to land in a safe location. The people around him wanted to help, remembering Zhao Fengnian's advice not to scatter.

But just as they turned around, a wall of blood blocked their way, emanating a strong, pungent stench as it rushed toward them.

The powerful aura was that of a Pure Blood Realm cultivator, and it was obvious that they wanted to separate them.

"Get out of here! This is beyond your capabilities!"

Upon hearing this, Wan Sha and the others gritted their teeth and could only send a telepathic message to Lin Sheng, promising that they would definitely return later.

The group then left, becoming even more cautious about their surroundings.

As he watched the fallen horses being swallowed by the pool of blood amidst their screams, Lin Sheng's eyes were filled with utmost seriousness.

He gripped his sword tightly, and when the horses were all swallowed and a scarlet demon materialized, he unleashed his ultimate sword technique without hesitation.

The sharp blade, imposing, cleaved the demon in two, but then the demon's split body glued back together, restoring it to its original state.

"So this is a troublesome demon."

The demon roared and charged forward in the blink of an eye. Lin Sheng swung his sword and clashed with its bloody claws.

Under the indistinct slashes, each ping-pong ball-like blade on the blood claw fell, but the demon quickly regenerated.

Lin Sheng took a deep breath. He knew that he was only close to the Pure Blood Realm. Furthermore, the demons fought without any rules and were extremely chaotic. He only had the advantage in terms of cultivation techniques and moves, which was why he had the opportunity to hold his own against them.

But if you keep dragging it out, you're bound to fail.

"This will never end if it continues like this."

"Since you're a demon, I refuse to believe you can survive without life!"

Then, while dodging the demons' attacks, he once again concentrated the life-eating aura on his blade, injecting a wisp of aura into the demon's body with each swing of his sword.

But Lin Sheng himself was also suffering. He not only had to dodge but also had to seize the opportunity to strike. His Xuan Qi was constantly being depleted, and several wounds were cut into his body during a few careless moments.

"The Pure Blood Realm, to be specific, is weaker than Zhao Fengnian's; it should only be one realm."

"But the vitality is truly abundant."

"But...it worked."

Seeing the demon's movements gradually slow down, Lin Sheng swallowed a Qinghui Pill. He refused to believe that he couldn't win even with the pills and cheat codes of the Pure Blood Realm.

The demon's movements slowed down, but each strike was still heavy, and it barely maintained its condition by relying on the Azure Return Pill.

The crimson blade cleaved the demon in two, and a large amount of life-corroding energy flowed into its body. This time, the demon's recovery was extremely slow, and it finally stopped abruptly, turning into a pool of blood.

Seeing that the demons had been vanquished, Lin Sheng used his sword to support himself, took out the pills given to him by the camp before his departure from his storage bag, and swallowed them.

"I need to hurry up and get myself back in shape."

Looking at the lifeless blood, he thought, "I really made the right choice in refining the Corrosive Life Force from Qi, otherwise I really wouldn't know..."

He suddenly realized, "Something's wrong! Why is there no energy?"

In the past, there was always a vital energy left after slaying demons, so how could there not be this time?

As a reliable cheat code, the Cavern Furnace never makes a mistake.

Lin Sheng examined the pool of red blood closely and vaguely spotted a severed finger within it.
