Under the onslaught of the malevolent energy, my eyes instantly became bloodshot, and my vision turned completely red.

As the malevolent energy surged and flowed through my body, the tingling sensation gradually subsided!

At that moment, my previously excruciating wound began to feel a cool sensation.

The deadly poison seems to have been suppressed by the malevolent energy!

However, Black Tiger was clearly an impatient man. He roared and raised his Miao sword high, slashing down at my head with the force of splitting a mountain!

"You're playing tricks! Go to hell!"

This strike was powerful and heavy; if it were me before, I would never have dared to take it head-on.

but now……

Just as the Miao sword was about to touch me, I moved.

I didn't dodge or retreat. Instead, I stretched out my right hand, fingers forming a claw, and grabbed at the blade!

"You're asking for death!" A cruel glint of joy flashed in Black Tiger's eyes.

However, his smile froze the next second.

"Clang!"

A sickening metallic scraping sound rang out.

My hand wasn't severed; instead, it gripped the sharp blade like an iron clamp!

At this moment, my hands were covered with a faint bluish-black aura, which was a materialized baleful aura!

"What?!"

Black Tiger's pupils dilated violently. He desperately tried to draw his sword, but found that the sword seemed to be permanently attached to his hand, remaining completely still.

Looking into his terrified eyes, I grinned, stomped my left foot hard, and instantly lunged forward, crashing into Black Tiger's arms.

"Bang!"

A muffled thud.

Black Tiger's massive, bear-like body was sent flying by my impact!

He spat out a mouthful of blood in mid-air, his chest visibly caved in, and slammed heavily onto a tree trunk five meters away.

He didn't even have time to scream before he slid down like a lump of mud.

The entire room fell silent.

The monkey opened its mouth wide, and the dagger in its hand clattered to the ground, while the Blood Maiden's hand holding the whip was trembling violently.

Even the so-called saintess who had always been high and mighty suddenly stood up straight, her eyes behind the mask revealing horror for the first time.

"This is... a manifestation of malevolent energy? Are you a corpse slayer or an Asura?!"

I ignored her exclamation and slowly turned around.

The dark blue aura swirled around me, growing heavier and heavier, while in my crimson vision, a voice seemed to be constantly roaring.

"Kill them! Kill them all!"

A cruel smile appeared on my face, and then I suddenly pushed off with my feet, charging towards the nearest ghost monkey!

With the enhancement of the evil energy, I felt my physical functions being strengthened several times over. In just an instant, I was already in front of the ghost monkey!

"kill!!!!"

The voice in my head kept ringing, which annoyed me, so I increased the speed of my hands even more.

Before the ghost monkey could even pick up the dagger from the ground, it saw a large hand shrouded in black mist magnify infinitely in its pupils.

"No--"

"Snap!"

As the sound rang out, the crisp cracking of bones cut short his screams.

I grabbed his crown with one hand, without any fancy movements, simply poured in the evil energy, and then pressed down hard!

In an instant, the assassin, known for his agility, had his head pressed into his chest cavity, and then collapsed limply to the ground.

"The second one."

I casually flicked the blood off my hands and turned my gaze to Blood Maiden, who was trying to flee.

"You...you stay away! I am..."

"Shh, it's too noisy."

I calmly interrupted her, as if I were speaking to her, or perhaps to the voice in my head.

Then, I shook my left hand, and the ink line in my left hand popped out, drawing an arc in the air and instantly wrapping around her neck.

With another slight flick of my wrist, the ink line tightened.

Immediately afterwards, a spurt of blood shot out, and the well-preserved head rolled into the muddy water.

"The third one."

I stepped over the corpse, my murderous aura only intensifying, my crimson eyes fixed on my final target—the Miao woman wearing a mask.

"Now, it's your turn."

After saying that, I pushed off with my feet, leaned forward, and locked my gaze on her throat.

"Yes! Right there! Crush her! Hahahaha!"

The voice in my head grew increasingly frantic, so loud that I started experiencing mild tinnitus.

The noise only made me more annoyed, and I grew increasingly agitated.

At this moment, the Miao woman had already placed the jade flute to her lips, seemingly preparing to retaliate.

I could see that although she was being suppressed by my murderous aura and was gradually retreating, there was no despair in her eyes as I had imagined.

Just as I was less than five steps away from her, preparing to launch the final blow.

"jingle……"

A clear and melodious silver bell suddenly rang out in the mountains and forests.

The sound was extremely soft, yet it was like a steel needle piercing my eardrum, causing my previously boiling murderous aura to suddenly freeze.

"Young man, you're too hot-tempered; it's bad for your health."

An aged voice came from the shadows behind the Miao woman.

Immediately afterwards, a hunched figure emerged.

It was an old woman dressed in a black Miao-style dress with red flowers, her face covered in wrinkles like dried tree bark, and she was leaning on a black snake-head cane.

She seemed to walk very slowly, her trembling figure appearing as if a gust of wind could blow her over. However, the moment her voice fell, she had already stepped over the Miao girl and stood between us.

After glancing at me twice, she spoke: "The Art of Closing Fiends... Ha, I knew it. Chen Xuan really did pass down the Chen Clan's Heavenly Garment Strategy."

Upon hearing this, my heart sank.

With just one glance, I could tell that this was a forbidden technique recorded in the Chen Clan's Heavenly Garment Strategy. What is this old woman's background?!

Although I was surprised, I didn't stop moving my hands; in fact, I sped up a bit.

I unleashed all the killing intent within me, let out a low shout, and punched the old woman in the face!

We absolutely cannot let her leak the news!

When the old woman saw that I not only did not stop, but instead attacked her, a glint of shrewdness flashed in her old eyes.

She didn't dodge, but slowly raised the snake-head cane and seemingly lightly tapped my fist.

"Dispel evil spirits."

"Bang!"

The cane was clearly made of wood, but the force it contained was like a heavy hammer, instantly stopping my surging body!

The moment I touched the cane, I felt an extremely cold aura creep into my meridians along my arm, instantly dissipating the evil energy I had painstakingly cultivated.

"puff--"

I coughed up a mouthful of blood, my right arm went numb instantly, and I staggered backward.

With just one move, he broke my Demon-Slaying Technique!

Who is this old woman?!

Before I could react, I heard another voice.

"Soul Lock".

The old woman's voice remained calm. Her withered hand had somehow reached my chest, her five fingers like hooks, and she gripped my collarbone with lightning speed.

A sharp pain struck!

In an instant, all the strength in my body seemed to be completely drained, and the murderous aura on my body dissipated completely. My legs went weak, and I knelt heavily on the ground.

"Cough cough... Good... good method..."

I knelt in the muddy water, panting heavily, cold sweat instantly soaking my entire body.

The old woman's fingers were digging into my bones; with just a little force, she could cripple me.
