113: The demonic path rises again, returning to the Great Feng!

Boom!

Chen Xu's figure was like a tearing azure lightning bolt.

But his speed was more than ten times faster than before!

The sky of Xinghai Prefecture was directly ripped open by him, creating a white channel of Qi wave.

In just half a day, Chen Xu arrived at the edge of the Xinghai again.

Visibly, wherever he passed, the sea below was ploughed open into a deep gully.

The seawater surged wildly to both sides.

And did not calm down for a long time.

Some Cultivators flying above the sea only felt a terrifying Aura flash past.

Immediately following, a world-destroying gale swept over them.

Those with weaker cultivation were directly blown askew, tumbling into the sea.

"What... what was that flying past?"

"Is it a Deity Transformation Dao Monarch traveling? This Aura... it's too terrifying!"

Countless Cultivators looked up at the sky, their faces filled with shock and awe.

They couldn't see the true face of that streak of light at all.

They could only feel a terrifying will, as if it wanted to shatter the heavens and earth, charging forward relentlessly.

Chen Xu was indifferent to the reactions of these people.

All his focus.

Was on the battle situation in South Spirit Prefecture... Soon, Chen Xu found the secret teleportation stone chamber belonging to the East Sea Sword Sect!

He raised his hand, and vast Magic Power surged into the stone wall.

Buzz!

The runes on the stone wall lit up one by one.

Accompanied by a slight spatial distortion, Chen Xu's figure disappeared into the stone chamber... East Sea Sword Sect.

Inside the teleportation secret chamber, space suddenly rippled.

The next second, Chen Xu's figure stepped out from it.

He did not pause for a moment, his figure once again transforming into a streak of light, rushing out of the secret chamber.

And headed straight for the main hall of the East Sea Sword Sect.

The Sword Sect Disciples along the way only felt an azure lightning bolt flash past their eyes.

The strong wind it brought made their clothes flutter loudly.

"Was... was that Senior Chen who just passed by?"

"Didn't he just leave less than a month ago? How did he come back so quickly!"

"Does that even need to be said? It must be because of the situation in South Spirit Prefecture!"

For a time, many Disciples whispered among themselves, secretly speculating.

Inside the main hall.

Lan Shuyao was handling Sect affairs when she suddenly felt something and sharply looked up.

Immediately after, she saw a familiar figure appear in the center of the main hall.

The person wore an azure robe and had a handsome face.

But at this moment, his eyes contained a monstrous killing intent!

"Fellow Daoist Chen!"

Lan Shuyao was startled and abruptly stood up: "You... you're back?"

Chen Xu did not answer, but went straight to the point, speaking lightly: "South Spirit Prefecture, how is the situation?"

Upon hearing this, Lan Shuyao's expression instantly became very solemn.

She knew that Chen Xu must have already received the news.

"Very bad."

She took a deep breath, her voice heavy as she spoke.

"Since you defeated Pojun Demon Lord last time, the Demonic Path forces in the northern border did indeed quiet down for over a year."

"But just last month, they returned!"

"And this time, it's a premeditated, full-scale attack!"

A hint of horror flashed in Lan Shuyao's eyes.

"Giant Gate Demon Lord and Lian Zhen Demon Lord, two of the Demonic Path Seven Stars, made their moves. At the same time, the Blood Fiend Sect, Myriad Poisons Sect, Hehuan Sect, and Heavenly Corpse Cult, the four great Demonic Sects, nearly half of their forces came out!"

"They gathered all their main forces and launched a surprise attack on the Lingdao Immortal Sect, which was stationed on the front lines of the Righteous Path Alliance!"

"The Lingdao Immortal Sect was caught off guard and was almost crippled!"

"The Sect Master was severely injured, the mountain-protecting array was broken, and the entire front line collapsed completely!"

"Now, the entire Righteous Path Alliance in South Spirit Prefecture is being beaten without any power to retaliate, retreating steadily!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xu's eyes narrowed.

Visibly, an even more terrifying Aura erupted from within Chen Xu's body.

So much so that the pillars of the main hall hummed under this Aura.

And cracks appeared.

Good!

What a Demonic Path!

They had calculated that he was not present, and intended to achieve their goal in one fell swoop.

To completely annihilate the Righteous Path of South Spirit Prefecture!

Killing intent flashed in Chen Xu's eyes.

The Lingdao Immortal Sect was the front-line stronghold of the Righteous Path Alliance; once it was removed, the entire Alliance's defense line would be rendered useless.

And the Qingyun Immortal Sect was the spiritual pillar and core of the entire Alliance.

The Demonic Path's plan was clear.

First, cripple the Lingdao Immortal Sect and tear open the defense line.

Then, gather all forces, and while various parties couldn't provide support, with the force of thunder.

Annihilate the Qingyun Immortal Sect in one fell swoop!

As long as the Qingyun Immortal Sect fell, the Righteous Path forces of the entire South Spirit Prefecture would completely collapse.

And would no longer be able to organize any effective resistance.

Burning the bridge behind them!

Extremely vicious!

"Fellow Daoist Chen, the situation is extremely critical now!"

Lan Shuyao looked at Chen Xu, her face full of worry.

"The Qingyun Immortal Sect is besieged by a large army personally led by Pojun Demon Lord's true body. I'm afraid... it won't last much longer."

"If Fellow Daoist doesn't return soon, the Righteous Path Alliance in South Spirit Prefecture will truly be shattered!"

Just at this moment.

A muffled voice came from outside the main hall.

"Master, if needed, I can go with you!"

The Xuan Shui Dragon Turtle was seen stepping out from outside the main hall.

"My East Sea Sword Sect can also deploy support at any time!"

Lan Shuyao also immediately expressed her stance.

However, Chen Xu shook his head: "No need."

"You all guard the East Sea."

"Beware of the Demonic Path marching straight from the East Sea into the heartland of South Spirit Prefecture."

In his opinion, Lan Shuyao was at most an ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Even if she entered the battlefield, her impact would not be significant.

The Xuan Shui Dragon Turtle had always been stationed in the East Sea.

If the Demonic Path were to cross the sea and sneak over again, it could act and stop more Demonic Path enemies.

"So... your duty is to guard this place."

Chen Xu left this sentence and said no more.

He turned and took a step.

His figure instantly disappeared into the main hall, as if he had never appeared.

Only the lingering fierce killing intent remained, proving his recent arrival... Chen Xu's figure rapidly traversed above the clouds.

Just one day later.

The capital city of the Great Feng Dynasty was already visible in the distance.

Chen Xu did not alert anyone, his figure flickered.

And he appeared directly inside the Chen family's residence.

In the study.

Chen Daoxuan was frowning, processing the massive amount of intelligence coming from the front lines.

Suddenly, he felt the space in front of him ripple slightly.

A familiar figure appeared out of thin air.

"Father!"

Chen Daoxuan was both surprised and delighted, and abruptly stood up.

"You're back!"

Chen Xu nodded, his gaze falling on the map in front of him, his voice steady.

"Tell me, the latest situation."

"Yes!"

Chen Daoxuan dared not delay, immediately pointing at the map and detailing the more specific intelligence.

"Father, the situation is even worse than what the Jade Slip said!"

"After the defeat of the Lingdao Immortal Sect, we organized several relief forces to reinforce the Qingyun Immortal Sect, but they were all intercepted by Demonic Path Cultivators midway!"

As he said this, a look of horror appeared on his face.

"The Demonic Path used some secret method to rapidly cultivate a large number of False Core and False Core Cultivators!"

"Although these False Nascent Soul and False Core Cultivators are far inferior in strength to true Nascent Soul and Golden Core Cultivators, they are fearless in death, extremely numerous, and very difficult to deal with! Our relief forces were worn down by these False Nascent Soul Cultivators!"

False Nascent Soul, False Core Cultivators?

Chen Xu's eyes narrowed.

It seemed that this was the trump card of the four Demonic Sects.

Sacrificing potential for a forced increase in cultivation.

Creating a massive number of cannon fodder.

Using a human wave tactic to seize the advantage in one fell swoop.

"What about the Qingyun Immortal Sect?"

Chen Xu continued to ask.

"Still holding on!"

A hint of admiration flashed in Chen Daoxuan's eyes.

"Sect Master Murong personally led the Sect Elders and Disciples, fiercely guarding the mountain-protecting array. The Demonic Path army attacked for five days and five nights but failed to break through!"

"But... their casualties are also extremely heavy, and the Spiritual Qi of the mountain-protecting array is almost exhausted, it could collapse at any moment!"

"Good."

Chen Xu nodded, having already made his decision: "Transmit my command."

"All Cultivators of the Great Feng Dynasty, according to the original plan, continue to launch attacks on the Demonic Path's defense line. At all costs, hold them back!"

"Yes! Father!"

"The rest, leave it to me."

The moment his words fell.

He took a step, and his figure once again vanished without a trace. When he reappeared, he was already dozens of kilometers away!

However, at this time, the Demonic Path had already set up a net.

Not long after he flew out of the Great Feng Dynasty's border.

In a forest below.

Dozens of powerful Devilish Qi suddenly erupted!

"They're here!"

"Such terrifying spatial fluctuations! It's him! It must be that Imperial Tutor of Great Feng!"

"Quick! Unleash the anti-air Magic Treasure! We must not let him pass!"

A series of murderous roars rang out.

Dozens of Demonic Path Cultivators were seen soaring into the sky.

They were all hidden sentinels and patrol teams set up by the Demonic Path.

The few leading individuals even had the cultivation of False Nascent Soul!

The rest of the Cultivators were mostly False Core!

They did not hesitate at all... and simultaneously unleashed the Magic Treasures in their hands.

Black nets, twisted ten thousand souls banners, and strange magic stones emitting peculiar gravity, soared into the sky.

In mid-air, they transformed into a massive anti-air Domain!

The air in that area instantly became as thick as mud.

Space was forcibly twisted and sealed!

They wanted to use this method to delay Chen Xu's progress, to buy time for the Demonic Lord's main force to defeat the Qingyun Immortal Sect!

"An ant trying to stop a chariot!"

Chen Xu looked at the anti-air Domain below, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

Then, with a thought.

Whoosh!

A purple Sword Qi flashed from his fingertip.

Pfft ~!

The next moment, that Sword Qi lightly sliced through the anti-air Domain.

The next second.

Those black nets, twisted ten thousand souls banners, strange magic stones... all instantly turned into dust!

"No..."

"How is this possible?!"

The sinister smiles on the faces of the dozens of Demonic Path Cultivators below instantly froze.

They watched helplessly as their Magic Treasures were destroyed with a single strike, their eyes instantly filled with terror.

One must know that even though they were False Nascent Soul Cultivators.

In fact, even compared to ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators.

They were only slightly weaker.

Their combined efforts didn't even cause the slightest hindrance to the opponent.

How could this be?

However, before they could react.

That purple Sword Qi, after breaking through the anti-air Domain, continued its momentum undiminished.

And swept through their midst!

Puff! Puff! Puff!

A series of flesh-bursting sounds rang out.

The dozens of Demonic Path Cultivators didn't even have time to let out a scream.

Their bodies simultaneously exploded in mid-air!

Turning into a dense blood mist!

One strike, complete annihilation!

Chen Xu's figure passed through the blood mist, his clothes unstained by blood.

“Keep moving forward!”

Soon, the second and third waves of Demonic Path Cultivators intercepted them, arriving one after another.

They appeared from mountains, rivers, and behind forests.

They unleashed various venomous Magic Treasures and set up all sorts of malicious traps.

However, all of this seemed utterly ridiculous in the face of absolute power.

Chen Xu didn't even bother to use the immortal slaying Sword Qi anymore.

Buzz!

The myriad ages azure cloud sword unsheathed!

A hundred-zhang long azure sword rainbow streaked across the sky!

Chen Xu merged with his sword.

He transformed into an irresistible streak of light, pushing forward relentlessly!

Wherever he passed, all Demonic Cultivators below the Nascent Soul Stage, whether Golden Core or Foundation Establishment, died upon contact!

Their protective Devilish Qi and Lifebound Treasures were simply too fragile before that azure sword rainbow.

They were directly crushed into blood mist!

A path of death, forged from fresh blood, visibly extended behind Chen Xu!

Just as Chen Xu was slaughtering his way through, and was about to reach the Qingyun Immortal Sect mountain range, a terrifying Demonic Aura, far exceeding anything before, suddenly erupted from the peak of a mountain ahead!

“How dare you! How dare you slaughter the Disciples of my Holy Cult!”

A thunderous roar resounded.

A burly Demonic Path Cultivator, clad in heavy black armor, appeared on the mountaintop.

He held a massive wolf-tooth club.

His eyes were blood-red.

The Aura emanating from him had clearly reached the Middle Nascent Soul Stage!

Moreover, his Aura was more solid and violent than that of an ordinary Middle Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator!

He was clearly a ruthless character who had endured countless battles and emerged from a sea of corpses!

He looked at the shocking bloody path behind Chen Xu and the lingering blood mist in the sky.

The killing intent in his eyes was practically overflowing!

“Finally, someone decent has arrived?”

Chen Xu’s figure paused in mid-air.

He looked at the Demonic Path general with an expressionless face and spoke softly, “State your name. I do not kill nameless individuals.”

“Hahaha!”

Upon hearing this, the Demonic Path general was slightly stunned, then burst into maniacal laughter.

“Arrogant! Who do you think you are?!”

“Listen well! This general is Moying, the Vanguard General of Pojun Demon Lord!”

“Boy, you have killed so many of my subordinates. Today, this general will capture you, extract your soul, refine your spirit, and make you wish for death but be unable to find it!”

Moying’s voice was filled with confidence.

He had naturally heard of the Imperial Tutor of Great Feng’s reputation.

While he was shocked by Chen Xu’s combat power, he had even more confidence in himself!

He wasn’t planning to clash head-on with Chen Xu.

“Stay here for me!”

Moying roared and spat out a mouthful!

Buzz!

A large net, black as ink and covered with ghostly faces, flew out from his mouth!

The net expanded with the wind, instantly covering the sky within a hundred-li radius!

A powerful spatial confinement force descended with a roar!

It was as if the entire world had been completely sealed by this large net, transforming into a cage!

It was his Lifebound Demonic Treasure!

The Sky-Binding Demonic Net!

“Hahaha! Once you fall into this general’s Sky-Binding Demonic Net, even a Great Cultivator of the Late Nascent Soul Stage won’t be able to break free!”

Moying looked at the azure-robed figure enveloped by the large net, a smug expression on his face.

“Boy, your time has come!”

However, his laughter had not yet faded.

Chen Xu, enveloped by the Demonic Net, showed no trace of panic.

Instead, a hint of mockery appeared on his face.

“Just this broken toy?”

The moment his voice fell, Chen Xu’s mind stirred.

A rusty, broken sword tip quietly appeared at his fingertip.

It was the immortal slaying sword tip!

Chen Xu flicked his finger, lightly tapping the terrifyingly confining Demonic Net above his head.

Whoosh!

A dark red Sword Qi flashed and disappeared.

That Sword Qi had no power whatsoever.

It appeared very small in front of the massive Sky-Binding Demonic Net.

Moying’s smug expression grew even stronger.

“Petty tricks!”

But as soon as his voice fell, his face suddenly changed.

The dark red Sword Qi directly struck the Sky-Binding Demonic Net.

Pfft!

Accompanied by a muffled sound, the Sky-Binding Demonic Net was easily broken by that Sword Qi!

“No… This is impossible!”

Seeing this scene, Moying’s eyes instantly widened, and a monstrous wave surged in his heart!

What kind of joke was this?

That was his Lifebound Demonic Treasure!

Though not a Spirit Treasure, it was a top-tier Magic Treasure. Once formed… it could even trap a Great Perfection Nascent Soul Cultivator for a moment.

But now, it was so easily broken?

However, this was just the beginning!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Accompanied by a series of crisp sounds, boom!

The next second, the Sky-Binding Demonic Net, which had covered the sky, shattered with a roar!

It turned into countless black fragments flying everywhere!

Its spiritual light completely extinguished, it was utterlyabandoned!

“Pfft!”

His Lifebound Demonic Treasure destroyed, Moying was struck by lightning.

He violently spat out a large mouthful of vital blood!

His entire Aura instantly withered, and his face became extremely pale.

Damn it!

That Sword Qi, that sword tip… what exactly was it?!

However, Chen Xu gave him no time to think.

The moment the Demonic Net was broken, the dark red Sword Qi continued its momentum, sweeping towards him again!

“Not good!”

Moying was scared to death, his soul almost leaving his body!

Without thinking, he frantically activated all the spiritual power in his body, unleashing all his trump card life-saving Magic Treasures!

“Blood Dragon Demonic Shield!”

A black shield engraved with a ghastly skull blocked in front of him!

“ten thousand souls banner!”

A demonic banner exuding endless resentment, conjuring layers of ghostly shadows!

“Blood Devil Bead!”

A spinning blood-colored bead transformed into a thick layer of blood-colored light curtain!

Three powerful defensive Demonic Treasures in a row, all spoils of war he had acquired from a sea of corpses.

Each one was enough to make ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators envious!

He refused to believe that he couldn't block this small Sword Qi!

However, reality once again slapped him hard.

Pfft!

That demonic shield was instantly pierced through by the Sword Qi!

Pfft!

The layers of ghostly shadows conjured by the ten thousand souls banner vanished into thin air the moment they touched the Sword Qi!

Pfft!

That thick layer of blood-colored light curtain couldn’t even block it for half a breath.

It was sliced through in an instant!

The Sword Qi broke through three Demonic Treasures in a row!

Its speed showed no signs of weakening!

“No!!!”

Moying let out a shriek.

He watched with wide eyes as the dark red Sword Qi sliced across his chest!

Pfft!

The High Grade Magic Treasure level black heavy armor he wore was easily cut open!

A terrifying wound extended from his left shoulder all the way to his right abdomen!

A violent killing Aura raged within his body, constantly destroying his Meridians and vitality!

“Ah!!!”

Moying let out a miserable cry, his entire body flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the mountain forest below.

He broke countless trees.

He struggled to crawl out of the deep pit, half of his body almost severed, blood gushing like a spring.

He was no longer recognizable as human.

“Uh… uh ah!~”

Feeling the continuous loss of vitality in his body, the horror in Moying’s heart reached its peak.

Ho-… how could this be?

Wasn’t this Imperial Tutor of Great Feng just a Great Perfection Early Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator?

Why?

Why was his strength so terrifying?

What exactly was that tattered fragment in his hand?!

However, at this moment, he had no time to ponder these things.

Because he was scared!

Truly scared!

Escape!

He must escape!

And he had to immediately transmit this news to Demonic Lord Adult!

This Imperial Tutor of Great Feng… his strength was actually so terrifying!

Thinking of this, Moying no longer dared to hesitate in the slightest.

He endured the intense pain in his body, suddenly turned around, and transformed into a streak of blood light.

He frantically fled in the direction of Qingyun Immortal Sect!

At the same time, he pulled out a black Jade Slip from his embrace, preparing to crush it!

He wanted to warn the Demonic Lord!

However, he was fast, but Chen Xu’s reaction was even faster!

The moment he crushed the Jade Slip, Chen Xu waved his hand again!

A Sword Qi from the immortal slaying sword tip once again shot towards him.

Buzz!

Moying, who was frantically fleeing, suddenly stiffened!

The light in his eyes instantly solidified.

The expression of terror on his face completely froze.

The next second.

Pfft!

Without any warning, his body, along with his Nascent Soul Demonic Soul that had just left his body, was instantly annihilated under the power of that Sword Qi!

And that Jade Slip also turned into dust.

Having done all this, Chen Xu withdrew his gaze.

His figure once again transformed into an azure lightning bolt, speeding towards the Qingyun Immortal Sect.

At the same time, Qingyun Immortal Sect.

At this very moment, this place had already turned into a living hell.

Boom! —!!!

Accompanied by an earth-shattering roar, the mountain-protecting formation, which had enveloped the entire Qingyun Immortal Sect and had been struggling for five days and five nights, finally reached its limit.

With a muffled roar, it shattered!

“The grand formation… is broken!”

A Qingyun Sect Elder, covered in blood, looked at the azure light points scattering like fireworks in the sky.

Despair instantly appeared on his face!

“Kill!!!”

“Flatten the Qingyun Immortal Sect for this Lord!”

“Leave no one alive!”

Outside the mountain, tens of thousands of Demonic Path troops, upon seeing the formation shatter, erupted in aRoar like a mountain collapsing and a sea roaring!

The next moment, tens of thousands of Demonic Path Cultivators, clad in various colored demonic armor and with red eyes, surged frantically into the mountain gate of Qingyun Immortal Sect from all directions!

“Ah!”

“Senior Brother!”

“Hold on! Fight these demonic brats to the death!”

Screams, roars, and the clashing of weapons instantly resounded throughout the entire Sect!

The pavilions and terraces, once filled with Immortal Qi and picturesque, were instantly destroyed by the violent Spiritual Qi, turning into a pile of ruins.

A young Qingyun Sect Disciple had just slain a Demonic Cultivator with his Flying Sword and hadn’t even had time to catch his breath.

His back was pierced by several demonic blades.

He turned his head to look at the group of Demonic Path Cultivators behind him, and finally fell unwillingly.
