481: What? The Demon Lord is gone just like that?
Outside the gates of Azure Sun City.
Corpses strewed the field.
A large number of Human Race Cultivators had already fallen.
Meanwhile, the Demon Race army was steadily advancing.
"Take another move from me, you wretched demons!"
Xu Guanshan waved his hands, releasing a grey spiritual light that condensed into countless mountains.
He smashed them repeatedly into the surroundings.
However, there were simply too many demons.
There were not only Power Demons but also Illusion Demons, Spirit Demons, and many others.
Although their Realms were lower than his,
Xu Guanshan could not hold them off while being besieged.
Xu Guanshan simply couldn't withstand it.
Soon, he was covered in blood, with wounds everywhere.
The Lingfa Sect Elders nearby also suffered heavy casualties.
Seeing the situation and feeling himself growing weaker, Xu Guanshan couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"It seems I'm not going to make it!"
"Gu Linyuan, I won't have the chance to seek revenge on you in this lifetime!"
"You'd better remember this!"
"In the next life, I will definitely settle the score for what happened back then!"
"Damn it, Xu Guanshan, you can't give up!"
"Hold on just a bit longer; maybe reinforcements will arrive soon!"
Gu Linyuan said, gasping for breath.
His blue robes were now tattered and torn.
One of his arms had been blown to pieces during the fierce battle.
Yet, he was still enduring the intense pain and persevering.
After all, there were still Xuanji Sect Disciples and members of his Family inside Azure Sun City, so he couldn't give up.
"Jie jie jie, humans, can't go on?"
"If you surrender sooner, I might give you a dignified death!"
"That's right, you can't stop our Demon Race!"
"Even if your Realms are slightly higher than ours, what's the use?"
"You still can't defeat us!"
Hearing the two men's shouts, the surrounding demons sneered.
Their attacks became increasingly fierce.
Soon, many more Elders fell.
"Gu Linyuan, see you in the next life!"
Xu Jianshan thought of the grudges and entanglements he had with Gu Linyuan over his lifetime.
He couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy.
Immediately, he sent a voice transmission to several Lingfa Sect Elders: "After I self-detonate, take the opportunity to leave this place. I'll leave the Disciples in your hands!"
"Sect Master, no!"
Then, spiritual light burst from Xu Guanshan's body, and the surrounding Earth Spiritual Power instantly went into a riot.
"Die, demons!"
"Watch me blow you all to bits!"
Seeing this, Gu Linyuan also made up his mind.
He was now at the end of his rope.
If he continued to fight, he wouldn't be able to stop the Demon Race's advance anyway. It would be better to self-detonate and take a few more demons with him.
This would give the Grand Elders a moment to breathe.
Thinking of this, Gu Linyuan also looked at Xu Jianshan not far away.
"Hmph, Xu Jianshan, see you on the road to the Yellow Springs."
"At that time, we can finally settle our grudges with each other."
A dazzling spiritual light also condensed on his body, and the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi similarly began to riot.
Seeing this, the nearby demons instantly understood their intentions:
"Want to self-detonate?"
"No way!"
They directly condensed endless demonic light and attacked the two, attempting to stop their self-detonation.
In an instant, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi on the battlefield became incredibly chaotic.
Just then, Xu Guanshan and Gu Linyuan suddenly discovered that the rioting Spiritual Qi within their bodies was being suppressed.
"What's going on?"
"Is it a Demon Race Spell?"
"This is bad!"
"What should we do!"
Their expressions turned grim instantly.
Then, a faint voice drifted down from the heavens.
"Sect Masters, it is too early to give up."
Following that, a series of subtle sounds rang out.
Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz!
This immediately caught the attention of the Cultivators and demons outside Azure Sun City.
"Hmm? What's that sound?"
At this moment, from within Azure Sun City, and even from other cities within a radius of hundreds of miles that had been occupied by the Demon Race, a massive number of spirit swords flew out.
One sword.
Two swords.
Three swords... a hundred swords.
Five hundred swords.
A thousand spirit swords converged, transforming into a river of Sword Dao that blanketed the sky and blotted out the sun.
The crisp hum of swords joined together, echoing through the clouds.
The shimmering light of laws illuminated the area for hundreds of miles.
"This is?"
"It's... reinforcements are here!"
"Great, a Senior of our Human Race has taken action."
"Holy crap, is this the Sword Dao Law?"
"That's so cool!"
"I wonder which Senior from the Taixuan Holy Land it is?"
The Human Race Cultivators were instantly overjoyed.
Seeing this, Xu Jianshan and Gu Linyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
The surrounding demons were startled, but they didn't panic at all:
"Lord Xie Mu Demon Venerable, a human powerhouse has arrived!"
"Please take action!"
"What? There's actually a Demon Venerable hiding nearby?"
Hearing this, a cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of the Human Race Cultivators.
At that moment, a streak of green light suddenly flew out from behind the Demon Race army.
As the green light dissipated, it revealed a Spirit Demon at the Dao Enlightenment Tenth Layer Realm, Xie Mu Demon Venerable.
His entire body was pitch black, surrounded by deep green demonic light.
"Jie jie jie, finally a decent opponent has arrived."
"I..."
Before he could finish his sentence,
The river of Sword Dao in the sky had already released countless sword lights, attacking the demons.
"Well timed!"
"Human Sword Cultivator, come and fight me to the death!"
Xie Mu Demon Venerable looked full of confidence.
He spread his arms, and endless green demonic light instantly erupted from his body.
But in the next instant, he was immediately submerged by the endless sword light and blown to ash.
All that remained was a bottomless sword scar tens of thousands of feet long.
"This? Lord... Lord Demon Venerable?"
"What? Lord Demon Venerable is gone just like that?"
"What's going on?"
"It's over, we're completely finished now!"
The surrounding demons were instantly dumbfounded.
Didn't they say the humans were weak?
Why was Xie Mu Demon Venerable insta-killed?
"Run! We can't match this power! Go find the other Demon Venerables!"
The once-aggressive Demon Race army scattered and fled.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Countless sword lights fell from the sky, and all the demons were directly swallowed up.
The Devilish Qi that had originally shrouded the outskirts of Azure Sun City was also swept away.
On the ground where the Demon Race had been, only countless sword scars emitting a powerful Aura remained.
"I survived!"
"Great, I actually survived!"
"The Demon Race has been wiped out!"
The Cultivators were extremely excited.
"Thank you for the rescue, Senior!"
Seeing this, Xu Jianshan and Gu Linyuan bowed slightly and spoke respectfully toward the sky.
"No need. Your two sects are Affiliated Sects of my Taixuan Holy Land; this is what I should do."
A figure slowly descended from the sky; it was Su Yun, who had just taken action.
At this moment, Su Yun felt the Killing Intent he had just devoured within his body and was in a good mood.
Now, he was using the Devouring Law to swallow Killing Intent.
There was no commotion at all.
It was silent and invisible.
It could be said that it was basically impossible for anyone to notice.
At most, they could only sense the existence of the Power of Law from the Devouring Law.
They couldn't possibly detect who the devourer was.
This way, he could secretly prevent Ye Xuan from absorbing Killing Intent.
After all, Ye Xuan was the Reincarnation of an Immortal.
He might have some hidden cards, so it was better to be cautious.
He didn't want to fail in such an unexpected way.
"Are you an Elder of the Taixuan Holy Land?"
"That's great! I thought something had happened to the Elders who came to support us!"
After saying that, Gu Linyuan raised his head, took a closer look, and was instantly stunned.
"What?"
"Su Yun?"
"The one who just acted was Su Yun?"
"Su..."
Xu Guanshan, who was next to him, was also a bit dazed.
"Wait?"
"Isn't this kid the Saint?"
"How can he be so strong?"
At the same time, a series of rumbling sounds came from the sky nearby.
A large number of spirit boats flew over.
Liu Chengfeng and many Taixuan Elder stepped down from the taixuan boat and flew to Su Yun's side.
He had also heard the conversation just now and looked at Gu Linyuan and the other man, speaking in a serious tone:
"What Elder?"
"You've got it wrong!"
"Hurry and pay your respects to our Taixuan Holy Master!"
"It was the Holy Master who just saved you!"
