Swordholder

"Damn it!"

Liu Qingyuan's pupils contracted sharply. He had thought that if he rushed forward, he would only see a few remaining sword-wielding rebels being suppressed.

Then he personally crushed the scum who killed his son into dust and tore his body to pieces.

The expected person was nowhere to be seen. Instead, he encountered an incomparably ferocious demon, whose eyes flashed with blood-red light, and charged straight at him!

"Charge! All of you, charge!"

He shouted loudly, noticing that Xu Zhihua and his men were approaching from behind. He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and urged his black-scaled horse to charge fiercely towards Lu Chengfeng!

If you dare not step forward and cower in front of your superior right now, your future career will be completely ruined!

"ah······"

Lu Chengfeng charged forward, leaving a trail of blood and gore in his wake, with screams echoing everywhere and heads flying off the ground.

Let alone ordinary cultivators, even experts at the Dharma Body Realm and Spirit Aperture Realm would be unable to stop the already berserk Lu Chengfeng!

His swordsmanship was originally a righteous human sword art, but after he completely turned into a zombie, it became ferocious, bloodthirsty, and extremely murderous.

With almost every sword strike, four or five heads flew into the air, or bodies were cleaved into pieces!

By the time Lu Chengfeng reached Liu Qingyuan, the ground behind him was already littered with corpses!

Hundreds of cultivators died on the spot!

"Die!"

Liu Qingfeng gazed at Lu Chengfeng's blood-soaked, demon-like figure and spurred his black-scaled horse forward.

He swept his long sword horizontally, aiming straight for Lu Chengfeng's head!

clang!

Lu Chengfeng neither dodged nor evaded, using his longsword to parry and block the opponent's longsword.

Using the momentum of the charge, the black-scaled horse crashed into his chest!

puff!

Lu Chengfeng spat out black blood, his body was struck by a tremendous force, and he flew backward for more than ten meters until he crashed heavily into a big tree and then fell to the ground with a bang.

"Lord Liu is valiant!"

Upon seeing this, everyone's spirits immediately lifted!

Even Liu Qingyuan's eyes flashed with surprise.

"His spiritual energy and malevolent aura are likely completely exhausted!"

He secretly pondered to himself that Xu Zhihua and his cavalry were about to arrive, and he was absolutely unwilling to let go of the great achievement of capturing Lu Chengfeng alive!

"drive!"

He spurred his horse once again and charged straight at Lu Chengfeng, who was rolling on the ground!

"You traitorous swordsman! I am Liu Qingyuan, the Chief of the Wuxiang Division of Huaishan County! Surrender at once!!"

Liu Qingyuan shouted passionately, pointing his long sword at Lu Chengfeng, who was slowly rising, disheveled and covered in blood.

boom!

Just as Liu Qingyuan was about to rush forward, Lu Chengfeng stomped his foot on the ground, and the earth instantly cracked!

Liu Qingyuan's expression changed, and the black-scaled horse beneath him staggered, its charging momentum suddenly halting!

Swish!

Lu Chengfeng suddenly flashed in front of the black-scaled horse and slammed his fist into the horse's head!

boom!

The black-scaled horse neighed mournfully and collapsed to the ground with a crash!

Liu Qingyuan's pupils shrank suddenly on horseback, and he hastily slashed out with his long sword, only to have it easily blocked by the opponent!

boom!

A tremendous force struck, directly knocking the long sword out of his hand!

"What?"

Liu Qingyuan's heart sank. The moment the black-scaled horse fell to the ground and died, he rolled to the side, wanting to get up and escape immediately.

Just then, someone suddenly grabbed the back of his neck!

"Wh...what?"

The icy sensation on his neck sent chills down Liu Qingyuan's spine!

But as excruciating pain surged through him, his face contorted in agony.

puff!

In the blink of an eye, Lu Chengfeng had already thrust his sword into him from behind, the long tip of the sword piercing through his chest!

"what!"

Liu Qingyuan let out a piercing scream, his eyes wide open in despair!

This scene made Liu Zongyuan, who had just arrived, twitch his eyelids and immediately roared, "Let him go!"

laugh!

Before he finished speaking, Lu Chengfeng pulled out the long sword that was stuck in Liu Qingyuan's body and slashed again with his backhand!

puff!

In front of Liu Zongyuan, Xu Zhihua, and hundreds of Wuxiang soldiers, Lu Chengfeng cut Liu Qingyuan in half!

Blood mixed with entrails rained down recklessly!

"Qingyuan!"

Liu Zongyuan's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared angrily.

"Lu Chengfeng, I've chased you for over a decade! Today, you will finally die by my hand!"

Xu Zhihua stared at Lu Chengfeng, a ferocious look of excitement appearing on his face.

"Xu...Zhi...Hua!"

"The Xu... family!!!"

Lu Chengfeng's vision, shrouded in blood, was already blurred, and he could not see the figures around him. However, his remaining rationality still allowed him to recognize that familiar voice.

"kill!"

Xu Zhihua said no more and immediately ordered the entire army to charge!

The group of black-scaled horse cavalrymen urged their mounts forward in unison.

Boom!!!

The dense hooves of horses pounded the earth, a dull thud like thunder!

A chilling killing intent swept across the land, making the dim red night seem even colder and more piercing.

A dozen cavalrymen approached first, and Lu Chengfeng took the initiative to meet them. His longsword burst forth with terrifying sword light and swept forward!

laugh!

A crimson sword beam swept out, like the moonlight bestowed by the blood moon!

Cold and chilling!

"what!"

The seven or eight cavalrymen at the front screamed as they and their horses were all cut in half!

Blood rained down, and body parts splattered everywhere.

The power of that single sword strike caused both Xu Zhihua and Liu Zongyuan's eyelids to twitch uncontrollably.

Boom!

Cavalry from all directions simultaneously surrounded and charged towards him!

Lu Chengfeng stomped his foot on the ground and shot into the air dozens of meters high like a cannonball. As he fell, he swung his long sword!

Clang!

The longsword rang out with a resounding clang, and a blood-red sword beam tens of meters long shot out!

Then, he slashed fiercely down at the cavalry below!

laugh!

One sword strike followed by another!

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—

One after another, crimson sword energies slashed down vertically, layer upon layer, their power terrifying beyond compare!

Boom boom boom boom boom...

The ground below exploded, trees turned to dust, rocks flew everywhere, and countless severed limbs were thrown into the air!

Although Lu Chengfeng's cultivation level was at the Yellow Court Realm, he could only stay in the air for a short time and could not fly.

Relying entirely on brute force, he leaped dozens of meters into the air.

Just two or three breaths later, his body slammed heavily to the ground!

boom!

The earth was smashed into a huge crater, and the cavalrymen around him, their eyes bloodshot, charged at him once again.

Xu Zhihua and Liu Zongyuan watched this scene with cold eyes, their expressions extremely gloomy!

If they rely solely on soldiers to deplete Lu Chengfeng's magical power and evil aura, and then launch a counterattack when he is exhausted... the casualties among his cavalry will be incalculable.

"Lord Xu, could he be using the Heavenly Light Demon-Slaying Technique right now?"

Liu Zongyuan looked at Lu Chengfeng, who was slaughtering everyone as if possessed by an evil spirit, with a face full of doubt.

Rumor has it that Lu Chengfeng originally cultivated the Heavenly Light Demon Slaying Technique, but the sword aura he is currently displaying does not match it at all.

"Hmph, of course not."

Xu Zhihua's face was grim, and he said coldly, "There is no longer any Heavenly Light power within him; his entire body is filled with overwhelming murderous aura!"

"That……"

Liu Zongyuan was completely puzzled.

"It was that woman beside him who taught him the Evil Spirit God-Slaying Slash!"

Damn it! That woman actually dared to teach him such forbidden swordsmanship!

Xu Zhihua cursed angrily.

If one had not mastered the Evil Spirit Annihilation Slash, Lu Chengfeng would have been no threat at all.

Unfortunately, he mastered this technique, which caused heavy casualties in this manhunt!

"I will definitely submit a memorial impeaching that woman for this matter!"

Xu Zhihua, filled with resentment, spoke in a deep voice.

"The Evil Spirit Annihilation Slash?"

Liu Zongyuan gasped.

Although he was the garrison commander of a remote county, he had long heard that the Wuxiang Sect possessed a forbidden sword technique that defied the heavens—the Evil Spirit Annihilation Slash!

This sword technique was originally created specifically for demons and evil spirits. It can condense the evil spirit power within the body into the sword and unleash a terrifying attack that can destroy the world.

The mountains and forests are now piled high with corpses and rivers of blood, all due to the power of this evil spirit's God-Slaying Slash!

"Lord Liu, let's attack together!"

Xu Zhihua looked at Liu Zongyuan with a cold gaze, carrying an undeniable warning.

Only he and Liu Zongyuan were present, both of whom were at the Great Perfection of the Yellow Court Realm.

The remaining cultivators and guards were merely pawns used to deplete Lu Chengfeng's murderous aura.

Liu Zongyuan's eyelids twitched slightly, and he immediately cupped his hands in response, saying, "I will certainly do my utmost!"

Xu Zhihua looked satisfied and immediately urged his black-scaled horse to charge towards Lu Chengfeng.

Liu Zongyuan followed closely behind.

laugh!

Lu Chengfeng leaped into the air once more and slashed down with his sword!

Xu Zhihua and Liu Zongyuan quickly dodged to the side, and their two black-scaled horses were instantly cut in two!

"Damn it! He actually possesses such immense killing power?"

Xu Zhihua landed firmly, looked at his dead mount, and shouted angrily.

Lu Chengfeng plummeted from mid-air, and Xu Zhihua immediately leaped forward, his figure blurring into a blur!

A tremendous power surged from within him, the bull horns on his head gleamed, and his combat strength instantly skyrocketed!

boom!

Lu Chengfeng spun around to meet the attack, and the two powerful figures clashed. His longsword was knocked away by a palm strike.

"roar!!!"

Lu Chengfeng roared to the sky, his long hair dancing wildly, and his fingernails suddenly grew a foot long, sharp as steel knives!

He actually wielded his sharp claws and engaged in a fierce battle with Xu Zhihua.

Upon seeing this, Liu Zongyuan's blood and qi surged and he immediately joined the battle.

bang bang bang bang...

The three instantly engaged in a fierce battle, their violent energy exploding outwards, shattering the surrounding trees into countless fragments.

The earth was riddled with craters, and severed limbs and broken bones were scattered everywhere.

At this moment, Lu Chengfeng was no longer in pain or afraid of death!

They completely abandoned defense and only knew how to launch a frantic attack!

boom!

With a powerful palm strike, Liu Zongyuan was blasted away, blood gushing from his mouth.

Countless cultivators of the Formless Realm, fearless of death, charged forward relentlessly.

Xu Zhihua's face was extremely gloomy.

He had transformed into a bull-shaped beast god covered in black scales, charging wildly with his beast god body!

Even so, they were unable to severely injure or kill Lu Chengfeng.

But he knew in his heart that Lu Chengfeng was already at his limit and wouldn't last much longer.

The enemy had already resolved to die and were now fighting fiercely!

It was merely a ploy to delay the others and cover the escape of the few remaining sword-wielding traitors.

Thinking of this, Xu Zhihua shouted sternly, "Quickly! Send men to search that dilapidated temple!"

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of Wuxiang warriors bypassed the area and rushed towards the dilapidated temple deep in the mountains.

Xu Zhihua stared intently at Lu Chengfeng with his bull-like eyes, clearly catching a fleeting ripple in his gaze.

"it works!"

Xu Zhihua was overjoyed and suddenly a plan came to mind!

He intended to completely crush Lu Chengfeng's fighting spirit.

"Lu Chengfeng, you can die in peace!"

"It's better to die at my hands, Xu Zhihua's, than to live on as a walking corpse!"

As Xu Zhihua launched his fierce attack, he shouted, "Only such an ending is worthy of your status as a monstrous swordsman!"

"I promise you, I will no longer hunt down those you protect, and I will let them leave safely!"

Even after he finished speaking, Lu Chengfeng's eyes remained bloodshot.

However, the violent killing aura emanating from him was noticeably weaker.
