127: Chapter 127 Slaying Demons

The Su Family once obtained a Golden Core Sword Technique—Sword Transforms into a Long Rainbow.

It had a total of three forms: Flying Sword Transformation into Rainbow, Sword Qi Transformation into Rainbow, and Long Rainbow into a Line.

The cultivation difficulty of a Golden Core Sword Technique was extremely high; one could not truly master it without reaching the Golden Core Stage.

Even Su Xuanheng, who possessed the Clear Sword Heart, had only mastered the first form, Flying Sword Transformation into Rainbow, through sheer technique, which already placed him among the ranks of heavenly geniuses.

To master the second form, Sword Qi Transformation into Rainbow, one not only needed a deeper understanding of the Dao of the sword but also required abundant spiritual energy for support.

Without reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, Su Xuanheng could not guarantee that he could perform Sword Qi Transformation into Rainbow.

Yet now, within a Secret Realm exclusive to Qi Refining Factions, they witnessed Sword Qi Transformation into Rainbow, its terrifying aura spanning several miles, leaving no possibility of misidentification!

In this Secret Realm, which Qi Refining Cultivator could possess such terrifying talent in the Dao of the sword?

The same figure instinctively came to the minds of Su Xuanheng and Wei Yan.

"It's Father!"

Su Xuanheng gasped, his eyes filled with both shock and admiration.

Wei Yan's expression was solemn, and she nodded in deep agreement, "There's no mistake! That was definitely Sword Qi Transformation into Rainbow just now! Aside from Father, I can't think of anyone else who could perform Sword Qi Transformation into Rainbow with a Qi Refining cultivation."

As a daughter-in-law of the Su Family, she had already come into contact with the core secrets of the Su Family, such as Su Yang's ability to deduce Daoist methods, and the Hunyuan Condensing True Method that she would never dare reveal to the outside world!

When she first discovered that neither Su Xinyao nor Su Xinyue had a Spiritual Root, Wei Yan had been secretly heartbroken. However, not long after, she came into contact with the Su Family's Hunyuan Condensing True Method.

All the miracles of the Su Family came from this mysterious Su Family Clan Chief!

Now, in Wei Yan's heart, even if she were told that Su Yang was the Reincarnation of a great power, she would believe it without a doubt.

"Father is fighting someone, let's catch up quickly!"

Su Xuanheng called out a reminder, and everyone hurriedly quickened their pace, heading in the direction from which the Sword Qi had come.

...

Terrified screams echoed deep within the bamboo forest. A blurred figure flickered through the bamboo, and sharp Sword Qi swept across like a long rainbow. Wherever it went, the sea of bamboo fell in layers like a tide.

"They're dead! The Elders are all dead! Everyone, run!!"

A demonic Cultivator shrieked in utter terror, breaking the dead silence of the bamboo forest, but his voice was abruptly cut short.

*Puchi!*

The Sword Qi was as fast as a crimson long rainbow. The moment the demonic Cultivator's words fell, it accurately pierced through his chest.

The fierce Sword Qi shredded his life force, and the gushing blood turned into a scarlet mist, splashing out like spilled ink, staining the emerald green bamboo leaves crimson.

"Help! Head of the Family, save me!!!"

Desperate screams rose one after another.

One demonic Cultivator, knowing there was no hope of escape, had a flash of madness in his eyes. The Devilish Qi around him surged and turned into a cloud of black mist as he lunged toward the flickering, blurred figure among the bamboo shadows.

Boom!

A sudden clap of thunder erupted from the ground, and a bolt of lightning as thick as a Dragon struck down from thin air, hitting the black mist with the majestic heavenly power of ultimate Yang and rigidity.

A piercing explosion and a short scream sounded simultaneously. The black mist dispersed, and a charred corpse fell stiffly to the ground, emitting a nauseating burnt smell.

The slaughter did not pause for a moment. The blurred figure seemed to have vanished into the darkness, attacking the others with lightning speed.

His figure flickered constantly among the remaining demonic Cultivators. Every time he paused or disappeared and reappeared, he took a life.

The demonic Cultivators completely collapsed. They scattered and fled, crying out for their parents.

"Senior, have mercy..."

Someone spoke to beg for mercy, but before they could finish, a blood line appeared on their neck. Then, a crimson flame fell, igniting the headless corpse.

Those fleeing, those begging for mercy, and those desperately fighting back all died one by one under that figure's rhythm.

This was a complete, one-sided crushing slaughter!

A thick scent of blood and the smell of burning permeated this broken sea of bamboo, with severed limbs scattered everywhere.

The demonic Cultivators who were lucky enough to survive curled up in corners in fear, watching the blurred figure who harvested lives as naturally as breathing, their eyes filled only with terror and confusion.

In that moment, they couldn't even tell who the real Devil Head was.

Just as the thought appeared in their minds, a sharp Sword Qi came from behind, instantly severing the bamboo poles behind them and also piercing through their heads...

Su Xuanheng and the others followed the sounds all the way, but they were never able to catch up to that blurred figure.

The scene before them suddenly opened up, and a half-collapsed thatched hut came into view.

Over a dozen Cultivators wearing Lingxi Sect uniforms were supporting each other or sitting cross-legged to heal their wounds. Every face showed the relief of surviving a disaster, as well as confusion over the deaths of their companions.

"Grandfather!"

Cheng Ningxiang caught sight of her grandfather squatting in the corner. Tears instantly filled her eyes as she cried out and rushed over.

"Ningxiang?"

Cheng Yue snapped his head up at the sound. Seeing his granddaughter running toward him and squatting in front of him, his blood-stained face showed surprise. "You... how did you..."

"Are your injuries serious?" Cheng Ningxiang's voice trembled as she nervously looked over her grandfather's blood-stained robes and weak aura.

"It's fine, Grandfather is okay..."

Cheng Yue forced a reassuring smile. His gaze moved past his granddaughter and landed on Su Xuanxiao and the others behind her.

He struggled to sit up straight and cupped his hands solemnly. "Cheng Yue of the Lingxi Sect sincerely thanks you Fellow Daoists for your help! And even more, I thank this young friend for saving my granddaughter's life!"

His eyes, as he looked at Su Xuanxiao, were filled with sincere and deep gratitude.

"If you ever need help in the future, the Lingxi Sect will surely assist with all our might!"

"Senior is too polite." Su Xuanheng's Divine Sense swept over the surroundings as he asked, "We are from the Qingyuan Su Family. I wonder if Senior has seen my father?"

"Your father? I understand now!"

Cheng Yue immediately made the connection to Su Yang's identity, his eyes full of admiration and gratitude. "The Lingxi Sect owes its survival to the Head of the Su Family this time. Just now, the Head of the Su Family went to hunt down that group of demonic Cultivators."

Su Xuanxiao and the others were from the Su Family. They had followed the trail not because Cheng Ningxiang was leading the way, but because they were looking for the Head of the Su Family.

There weren't many kind-hearted people with such strong bonds as the Su Family. From this, he could deduce that the young man who saved their Lingxi Sect was indeed the Head of the Su Family!

He hadn't expected things to be so coincidental—that the handsome young man whose strength made the demonic Cultivators tremble with fear was actually the Head of the Su Family.

It seemed the Lingxi Sect and the Su Family were quite fated; his granddaughter was saved by someone from the Su Family, and they were saved by the Head of the Su Family.

Cheng Yue briefly explained the situation at the time, and footsteps were heard from within the bamboo forest.

Everyone looked toward the sound and saw a blurred figure appearing as if from the darkness, dragging the dog-like Shi Xu into everyone's sight.

"Father!"

Seeing that their father was safe and sound, Su Xuanheng and the others looked delighted.

Su Yang wore a pure white Daoist robe that was completely unstained, looking nothing like someone who had just been through a fierce battle. He nodded slightly and tossed Shi Xu onto the center of the clearing.

"This person is for your Lingxi Sect to deal with. I have already slaughtered all the other demonic Cultivators," Su Yang said indifferently.

As soon as he said this, the Lingxi Sect Cultivators turned their heads in unison.

Seeing Shi Xu slumped on the ground, anger surged in their eyes. They endured their pain and staggered forward, staring at Shi Xu as if they wanted to eat his flesh raw.
