Demon Cave Canyon.

When Jiang Chen arrived at the depths of the canyon, he found that the cliffs all around the canyon had begun to form a kind of demon crystal state, covered with a faint layer of crystals, clearly affected by the invasion of demonic Qi.

Once this environment formed, for demons, it was equivalent to transforming the land, making it suitable for them to unleash their combat power.

Jiang Chen held the Dragons Roar Bow.

He slayed some demons lingering in the canyon.

"Could it be... that it's not these demonic Qi that strengthen the demons, but rather that the surrounding Spiritual Qi suppresses the demons' inherent strength?"

"However, although the nature is different, the effects are similar."

Jiang Chen could feel the Xiantian Realm demons lingering in the canyon.

Their power was extremely formidable, at least 50 to 60 percent stronger.

If a Late Stage Xiantian Realm demon could unleash power comparable to the Spirit Martial Realm, Jiang Chen would have to exert even greater effort to shoot it down.

"Hmm?"

The demonic miasma ahead dispersed.

The closer he got to the cave entrance, the less demonic miasma there was; only the surrounding canyon had been corrupted into a Demon Cave-like appearance.

When Jiang Chen stopped, about twenty zhang from the cave entrance, two figures descended from ahead.

Both had arrogant expressions, their arms crossed in front of them, blocking Jiang Chen's path.

At this moment, they were only focused on their own conversation.

"Elder really hit the mark, there really is a tail following us."

"You go or I go?"

The two looked under thirty, but both had already stepped into the Spirit Martial Realm.

This kind of Aptitude was considered top-tier within the Black Yamen.

At least they were Centurions, and in the future, they might even become Deputy Commanders.

And judging by their appearance, they should both be Disciples of the Fenglan Sword Sect.

He just didn't know what level these two were at in the Fenglan Sword Sect; if they were just ordinary Disciples, then the strength of the Fenglan Sword Sect would be too terrifying.

Jiang Chen thought to himself.

Of course.

Terrifying is relative.

And also mutual.

Just as Jiang Chen was pondering, the two opposite him had already started playing rock-paper-scissors.

After one of them won, he laughed triumphantly.

"Hahaha, I won! This kid's life is mine!"

After speaking, the Fenglan Sword Sect Disciple tapped his foot, and his figure swiftly rushed towards Jiang Chen.

He didn't even use the sword on his back.

He simply formed a sword-finger with his hand.

The Spiritual Qi around him actually condensed into a Qi sword at this moment.

This was the Dharma Idol he Cultivated: the Spirit Sword Dharma Idol.

The Fenglan Sword Sect Disciple attacked, instantly unleashing a majestic Aura, his surrounding Qi also transforming into a three-zhang long sharp sword, fiercely slashing towards Jiang Chen.

"Kid!"

"Dying under my Spirit Sword Finger is the good fortune you've Cultivated for ten lifetimes."

"Pfft!"

Jiang Chen raised his hand and shot an arrow.

The Qi arrow that burst from the Dragons Roar Bow instantly blew up the attacker.

"Ding... Kill Value +1"

Watching the opponent's Physical Body explode, Jiang Chen couldn't help but shake his head.

"This is it? Not even as good as a speed bump."

And the other Fenglan Sword Sect Disciple couldn't even react.

He just watched, wide-eyed, as his companion, who had just won rock-paper-scissors against him, turned into a pile of minced meat.

"Hiss!"

The Disciple quickly took a deep breath.

He realized that Jiang Chen's strength was extraordinarily powerful.

Earlier, seeing Jiang Chen's young appearance, he had thought Jiang Chen was only in the Xiantian Realm, although they were also very puzzled why Jiang Chen, a mere Xiantian Realm Cultivator, could penetrate deep into the Demon Cave Canyon.

However, their usual arrogance as Sword Sect Disciples had long made them overlook this point.

No matter what strength you possess, before me, there is only death.

It wasn't until he saw his companion's head explode that he realized Jiang Chen's terror.

Run!

Staying here would only lead to death.

However, just as he turned to flee, Jiang Chen had already shot an arrow.

"Bang!"

A bloody hole exploded in his stomach.

Jiang Chen thought about it; it would be best to leave some bodies of these guys to identify their identity as Fenglan Sword Sect members, so it would be easier to settle accounts with the Fenglan Sword Sect later.

After all, it was fine for the Fenglan Sword Sect to make small moves normally.

But collaborating with the Wuzui Sect, not only trying to snatch and steal treasures from the Demon Cave, but also harming many Black Yamen Demon Slaying Guards.

Naturally, the Fenglan Sword Sect could not be let off easily.

"It seems someone knew I was coming."

The words of these two earlier also made Jiang Chen realize that there were experts in the opposing camp who had discovered him.

But it didn't matter, what if they did discover him?

He stepped forward and took the Storage Rings from the two, then Jiang Chen's figure flashed, and he rushed into the Demon Cave.

Just as Jiang Chen was heading to the Demon Cave Canyon, the Demon Slayer Guard and Demon Slayer Army on the Western Front, who were strenuously resisting the demons, also suffered an extremely fierce demonic impact.

"What happened! The number of these demons has increased by at least tenfold!"

"And their strength has become even greater."

Lu Qian and other Spirit Martial Realm powerhouses stood at the very front.

After the main force gathered, there were about fifteen Spirit Martial Realm powerhouses on the defensive line.

But there were only a handful of true experts; the rest were like Chu Yun, Centurions who had just broken through to the Spirit Martial Realm.

The command of the Western Front Demon Slayer Guard was Deputy Commander Ling Jianglong.

Ling Jianglong was only forty years old, but he had already reached the ninth layer of the Spirit Martial Realm!

And he had already obtained a candidate position for Commander!

Although both were Deputy Commanders, Ling Jianglong's status was clearly higher than Lu Qian's.

Originally, there was another Deputy Commander in Cangzhou City, but unfortunately, he lost his life in an ambush after the first wave of attacks from the Demon King.

The appearance of such an Earth-Rank Demon Cave indeed meant that even Deputy Commanders could lose their lives.

At this moment, Ling Jianglong's gaze thoughtfully looked towards the distant Demon Cave.

He immediately gave the order.

"Everyone, contract the Formation, and fully resist this wave of demonic charge!"

"These demons are charging disorderly, chaotic, and cannot form a grand force."

"Hold your ground!"

Ling Jianglong said in a deep voice.

Then he looked at Lu Qian beside him, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes, and said in a softened tone, "Lu Qian, take your subordinates and stand guard at the rear of the team, to prevent demons from breaking through our team from behind."

Lu Qian frowned slightly upon hearing this.

She looked at these demons; although their numbers were vast, with Ye Wanqiu and others assisting now, they should instead concentrate their forces to break the demonic Formation. If they only defended, they would only fall into a passive state, staying put and waiting for these endless demons to rush in.

That way, everyone would be surrounded layer by layer, which was equivalent to digging their own graves.

However, with a great enemy before them, Lu Qian did not question Ling Jianglong's decision.

"Sir, I just discovered that after stepping into this place, an invisible Formation enveloped us, causing our Qi and blood to fall into disarray. This is not the effect of demonic Qi; there must be villains who set up a Formation!"

A gray-clothed old man said.

This person held a scepter inlaid with special Spirit Stones.

He was indeed a Demon Suppressing Envoy!

"Oh?"

Ling Jianglong exclaimed in surprise, glancing at the gray-robed old man beside him.

Beneath his eyes, fierce light was hidden.

"Xu Fei, take three people and go with Elder Huang to search for the Formation, and seize the opportunity to break it!"

"Yes! Xu Fei accepts the order!"

One of Ling Jianglong's Spirit Martial Realm Centurions stepped forward and responded.
