Who gave you permission to refine demons like this?

Intense flames engulfed the three-section courtyard.

Bang!

A bear-bodied eagle-like monster with four wings on its back was pierced through the air and slammed heavily onto the ground, creating spiderweb-like cracks.

Blood kept seeping from the monster's throat and body as it convulsed on the ground.

puff.

Lin Sheng drew his sword, and in the flash of the blade, the eagle monster was decapitated, its limbs and wings on its back were cut off.

Lin Sheng was covered in blood and clearly exhausted, but there were far fewer monsters around him than before.

The courtyard and walls were littered with piles of monster corpses.

The remaining ones, driven by biological instinct, hesitated to move forward.

It had been a long time since Gu Yanchuan gave them the order, and their limited thinking had begun to blur the meaning of the order, causing them to follow their primal animal instincts.

But my innate feeling is that the person in front of me is dangerous!

Lin Sheng swallowed the entire bottle of pills and then threw the bottle away.

He had lost count of how many bottles of pills he had used, but the remaining ones in his storage bag were enough to keep him fighting until dawn.

Normally this would be extremely dangerous, as the inability to deplete the drug's effects in time would greatly increase the burden on his body, but at this moment he was not worried at all.

The pills that entered the mouth were completely digested before they even reached the stomach, replenishing the body's vital energy and relieving fatigue.

Among these monsters were some formidable ones, and Lin Sheng was also injured, but he recovered in time by taking medicine, so his body was covered with scars, old and new.

This also caused his clothes to have various tears and scratches, and you could see the blood and bits of flesh of various monsters mixed on his body.

But apart from being covered in a thin layer of blood, the Hunting Blade remained unchanged, reflecting the flames and emitting light.

"I look a bit disheveled. I guess I need to learn more skills in the future, otherwise I'll have to change my clothes every time I fight."

Lin Sheng swept through the few monsters in the area, then suddenly unleashed a burst of blade light in all directions.

The monsters quickly dodged, and one of them screamed and whimpered as it retreated.

The dagger pierced through the back of his head, exited through his mouth, and went straight through his skull.

Lin Sheng chopped off the monster's head and then kicked away another horned monster next to it.

The monster smashed into the house, turning it into ruins and then turning it into a bloody pulp in the dust.

"That's about enough. Once you've dealt with the difficult ones, you're the ones who are easier to help pass on to the afterlife."

"Don't worry, it won't hurt, my knife is very fast."

The remaining monsters seemed to understand Lin Sheng's words, letting out a fierce roar that echoed in the small courtyard.

Immediately afterward, whether sprinting or running, all the monsters began to converge.

Lin Sheng immediately realized that something was wrong, so he swung his blade and rushed toward the gathering place, cutting down several slow-moving monsters along the way.

As he got closer, his pupils contracted. He saw the monsters approaching and merging together, writhing to form a fleshy body.

Three powerful strikes!

Lin Sheng unleashed a powerful triple strike, aiming to shatter everything in its path, and slashed fiercely!

As the knife fell, Lin Sheng felt a tremendous impact coming towards him.

The immense force forced him back.

He stepped back, coughed up blood, and looked somewhat shocked.

Wiping away the blood, he watched the body opposite him slowly stand up and muttered, "Good grief, second stage, huh?"

"Now's the time for me to unleash my full power!"

Lin Sheng didn't know how to describe the monster opposite him, but he could describe its characteristics in one word: asymmetry.

The monster was about five meters tall. The left half of its face could barely be identified as a lion, while the right half of its face was a mixture of features such as rats, spiders, snakes, and whiskers. Both of its eye sockets were filled with multiple eyeballs of different sizes and shapes.

The left arm was crimson, with a slender upper arm connected to a large, sharp claw. The right arm was a clenched fist, with the fingers seemingly fused together, unable to be extended or moved.

Only the lower half of the face resembled a human, with thick lower limbs and pale skin.

Smoke billowed from the monster's body, its head shook, its flesh writhed, and various fleshy buds sprouted.

"This thing really does drain your sanity."

"That bastard is capable of anything!"

Lin Sheng cursed Gu Yanchuan, raising his vigilance to the highest level.

The monster's aura was released without reservation, but due to the chaos, he couldn't tell how strong it was. However, he did feel pressure from the monster.

The monster let out a low growl and took a step forward, crushing the bricks and stones on the ground with a single, ordinary step.

The whiskers around his eyes pierced Lin Sheng like spikes.

However, Lin Sheng disappeared in the next instant, the attack missed, and he appeared directly above the monster.

Absolute Strike!

Three powerful strikes!

Lin Sheng held nothing back, going all out right from the start.

Unlike the Three Great Swords, the Absolute Blade doesn't have a style that can be used directly after training. However, Lin Sheng, who has practiced the Flowing Water Technique, can better appreciate the Absolute Blade's strengths after using it.

Swordsmanship is like water, which lies in the combination of strength and gentleness, and the transformation of the two forces. It can be like a gentle stream or like a turbulent wave striking a rock.

Because it has no fixed blade style, its flowing, water-like blade technique allows it to be well-compatible with other blade techniques.

At this moment, Lin Sheng mobilized all his strength, and on top of his powerful sword strikes that were like a raging torrent, he added three heavy sword strikes!

The combination of forces!

The Hunting Blade roared, its blinding sharpness slashing towards the strange, unrecognizable monster!

"roar!!"

The monster sensed the danger and exerted its strength, striking the blade with both its claws and fists.

The knife struck the monster, shattering the stone slab beneath its feet and causing it to sink slightly.

At the same time, blood gushed out from various parts of his body.

"puff!"

Lin Sheng was also shaken in the internal organs by the force of the other party. He felt a sweet taste in his throat and spat out blood, but he did not let go. Instead, his eyes were filled with killing intent and he gripped the hilt of the knife even tighter.

First level!

The blade flashed with a cold light, shattering the flesh and blood of the monster's arms, sending blood and flesh flying everywhere. But the immense force that followed cleaved into its fists and claws that were blocking the Hunting Blade.

The second level!

An even greater pressure surged forth, pressing the Hunting Blade, which had only just pierced the opponent's claws, even lower. Lin Sheng adjusted his stance, and amidst the opponent's cries of agony, he used the momentum to slash at the opponent's arms, severing them with a powerful blow.

Two heavy arms slammed onto the ground with a dull thud.

"Roar!!"

As it screamed, the monster's abdomen ripped open in the blink of an eye, revealing a huge, blood-red maw with three snake heads and layers of teeth like a shark.

At the same time, his tongue, sharp and cold, pierced towards Lin Sheng, who had just landed.

Lin Sheng's arm went numb; the simultaneous burden of the Absolute Blade and the Great Heavy Three Blades made it impossible for him to control the muscle spasms.

But he couldn't worry about that now; he was about to unleash his third strike.

The gaping maw and the spikes on its head approached Lin Sheng. He could already smell the stench inside, see the dripping saliva, and hear the wind whistling against his skin.

Just then, Lin Sheng smelled a familiar yet indescribable scent.

Time seemed to slow down; the monster's close-range attacks slowed, and the flames flickered, but his own movements remained completely unaffected.

Without time to think, Lin Sheng unleashed a powerful triple strike, the third strike!

A downward-reaching blade of light cleaved open the giant maw, shattering the thorny tongue, and the monster screamed as blood gushed violently from its center.

Lin Sheng didn't stop, and unleashed the remaining power of the third strike on his opponent once more.

Amidst the spray and splatter of copious amounts of blood, the monster was cleaved in two.

Bang!

The monster's body fell to its sides, with large amounts of blood and various bizarre internal organs flowing out.

Lin Sheng was panting, feeling an unprecedented fatigue in his body. He involuntarily leaned forward, but immediately gritted his teeth and used his knife to support himself.

Without delay, he immediately took out the medicine bottle and poured it into his mouth.

He urgently needs to recover, and the fake elixir within his body also urgently needs nourishment.

Just as Lin Sheng was taking his medicine, a small, delicate figure in the distance patted her chest reassuringly before disappearing from sight.
