He became the True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws starting from Liaozhai.

The dog-headed demon suddenly looked up and met Xu Yi's cold, chilling eyes. For a moment, it was unable to move.

moo~

Moo moo~~

Upon hearing this, Xu Yi suddenly laughed and said, "Brother Dog, this heart, liver, spleen, and lungs aren't strong enough. I'm not used to it."

The dog-headed demon, not understanding what he meant, said, "Brother, you should say that to the fox woman. I don't care about serving food."

Xu Yi shook his head and stood up: "Brother Dog, you may not know this, but my snack with wine is none other than you."

Upon hearing this, the dog-headed demon glared angrily, barked incessantly, and made a move to bite.

Xu Yi grinned, reached into his sleeve with his right hand, and pulled out a gleaming, finely crafted sword.

Before the dog-headed demon could react, the Taoist priest chopped it in half at the waist, and blood mixed with its intestines gushed out onto the ground.

The white snake on the left tried to escape, but Xu Yi grabbed its tail.

"Alas, this humble Taoist finds this wine rather tasteless, so I humbly request to borrow something from Brother Snake!"

Before he finished speaking, Xu Yi had already gutted the white snake, removed its gall bladder, and put it into the wine pot.

Grabbing the wine jug, Xu Yi gulped down several mouthfuls, then stepped on the dog-headed demon's head and asked with a smile:

"Brother Dog, is my true form sincere?"

The dog-headed demon was completely dead; how could it possibly utter a sound in response?

The demons at the banquet were taken aback, and their laughter abruptly stopped.

The demons were terrified. When did such a cruel person appear in Jingyang Mountain?

All the demons looked at the thin old man, hoping he could step forward and uphold justice.

Ho ho!

The mountain spirit stood up, clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Taoist, the snake demon deserves to die! She once drained the life force of a physician who had been practicing medicine for a long time!"

"The dog demon deserves to die too. He raped his mistress and then ate her whole family."

"Taoist, we've had our wine and rid ourselves of the demon. It's time to descend the mountain."

As Shan Jun walked and talked, he soon arrived in front of Xu Yi.

His eyes flashed with a fierce light, and his tone was forceful.

Upon hearing this, the demons gasped, wondering why the Mountain Lord was being so magnanimous today.

Xu Yi shook his head, then took out a blank book from his robes and sighed:

"Mountain Lord, I have had my fill, but my magic weapon is a demon-eating object, and it's starving."

As soon as he finished speaking, the demons gasped in shock.

Even the mountain spirit looked worried, his wrinkled face piling up, but he forced a smile: "Guests are always welcome, how can anyone leave hungry? My banquet is full of spirits with magical powers, please make yourself at home, Taoist!"

Xu Yi was overjoyed upon hearing this. He looked around at the demons, revealing his gleaming white teeth, and said greedily, "If I have eaten my fill of the magic treasures, I will leave."

Upon hearing this, the mountain king breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that this plague god would linger and refuse to leave.

The demons scattered in a panic, trying to escape the rock platform. At this moment, all the politeness they had shown to each other earlier was gone. The demons who were slow to run were trampled underfoot and used as cushions.

Looking at the lively scene, Xu Yi couldn't help but feel excited.

He pulled out four small, colorful flags from his pocket and threw them forcefully in all four directions. The flags landed steadily in the four cardinal directions, and in an instant, they flashed with golden light.

A protective barrier enveloped the entire stone platform.

A black bear spirit ran ahead and crashed headlong into the golden light barrier, its vision blurred. Seeing no way forward, it pitifully said:

"How bitter it is! In the past, I ate people; today, I am being eaten."

With no way to escape, the demon steeled itself, bared its fangs, and charged toward Xu Yi.

Xu Yi was not afraid. He threw away the precious sword, drew the sword behind him, and unleashed a torrent of sword energy. He was ruthless in his attacks.

If a bird comes, its wings are cut off; if a beast comes, its limbs are severed; if a crawling creature comes, it is cut in two with a single sword stroke. It only tortures without killing, showing its ruthlessness.

They killed half of them, which intimidated the demons.

Xu Yi took a step forward with his sword, and the demons howled. He took another step, and weeping came from among the demons. He took another step forward, and the sounds of farting filled the air.

The stench of feces and urine wafted into Xu Yi's nose with a gust of wind.

Xu Yi sniffed the air, looking disgusted: "I dislike killing."

Hearing this, the demons thought the Taoist priest was going to let them go, and they all kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Unexpectedly, Xu Yi turned around, took out a stack of paper figures from his pocket, and scattered them into the air.

The paper figures landed and transformed into soldiers, each one a burly, strong man, wielding a paper knife.

Several paper figures floated in the wind toward the outer courtyard. Soon after, the sounds of fighting, chopping bones, roaring, cursing, and howling of ghosts and wolves came from behind.

Xu Yi approached the Mountain Lord, bowed, and said, "Mountain Lord, this humble Taoist priest has some more to ask for."

The mountain lord, in a panic, scratched his head and hurriedly said, "Taoist, my mansion is poor. If you see anything you like, feel free to take it!"

Xu Yi blew a breath, sending a strong gust of wind towards the podium.

With a loud crash, the screen collapsed, revealing a young boy and girl, completely naked, bound tightly with ropes, and their mouths stuffed with tattered rags.

The young man and woman saw the Taoist priest standing with a sword, looking elegant and refined, and then they saw a burly man on the rock platform wielding a knife to slay a demon. They assumed that their family had sent someone to rescue them, and they cried anxiously.

When the mountain king realized that his plan had been exposed, he paced back and forth, jumping up and down, scratching his head in frustration.

Left with no other choice, the mountain lord roared and revealed its true form: a strong, lean tiger burst forth from its skin, baring its teeth and claws, its breath reeking of blood, exuding a majestic aura.

The mountain lord adopted a defensive posture, making a move to pounce on Xu Yi.

To his surprise, Xu Yi looked at him with a smile, showing no fear whatsoever.

Suddenly, the skinny tiger became ferocious and pounced. Xu Yi was not afraid and slid his sword across the tiger's belly.

An old monkey fell out of its belly and landed on the ground.

Xu Yi stood up and burst into laughter, saying, "So it's a case of 'when the tiger is away, the monkey becomes king!'"

The old monkey immediately lost his temper, drooping his tail and dejectedly saying, "Taoist, one should be forgiving when possible..."

Xu Yi smiled without saying a word, walked up to the monkey, and pierced its chest with his sword.

The old monkey tilted its head to the side, stuck out its tongue, and breathed its last.

Approaching the young man and woman, Xu Yi pulled out a stack of papers and a pair of scissors from his sleeve.

With deft splicing and cutting, two sets of paper clothes were cut out. Using a trick, the two sets of paper clothes shook a few times and turned into ordinary clothes.

This seemingly magical performance stunned the couple.

Paper cutting came to life?! The magical arts from the storybook actually appeared before them. Although they were shocked, they quickly recovered.

Yes, even the livestock at home and the wild animals in the mountains can speak, so what's so strange about this magical art?

Xu Yi took the rag from their mouths, untied them, and handed the clothes to them.

After the two men finished dressing, they came to thank Xu Yi.

First, they were deeply grateful and worked like slaves for him; then, they were shown a life-saving grace that they could never repay.

After a conversation, Xu Yi got to know the two of them.

The man's name was Ning Chen. He was on his way to the prefectural city to take the imperial examination and was a scholar who had passed the lowest level of the examinations.

The woman's name was Cui Xiuxiu, the apple of the eye of the magistrate of Guangcheng County.

In fact, Cui Xiuxiu was one of the purposes of Xu Yi's trip.

When Xu Yi was traveling through Guangcheng County, he heard that the county magistrate's daughter had been kidnapped by demons. He used a tracking spell and tracked her all the way here.

But the most important thing is to make sure the "Ten Thousand Demons Record" is well-fed.
