195: Chapter 195 Sword Slaying the Demon Saint

Witnessing the appearance of the Body Integration Stage Demon Saint, Lu Changning's expression changed. Her Exquisite Ice Heart Physique activated automatically, and she entered the "Ice Heart Realm."

Her eyes became incomparably calm. Four Flying Swords shimmering with cold light hummed as they hovered before her, their tips pointing directly at the terrifying demonic shadow.

However, the shock in her heart could not be calmed. A Body Integration Stage Demon Saint had actually appeared?! Junior Sister Five's premonition...

Lin Xiwei's pupils constricted abruptly!

As expected! Her instinct for caution had been correct; comfort had dulled her edges.

"Senior Sister Four." Lin Xiwei's voice was cold and urgent.

"Understood."

"Jie!"

Lu Changning let out a sharp cry, pushing her Ice Heart calculation ability to its Peak. The Demon Saint's seemingly flawless arrival posture was instantly analyzed in her eyes, revealing several subtle flaws caused by spatial compression and Formation impact!

"Kill!"

The Aura of Lu Changning's fifth level of Soul Transformation (originally fifth level of Nascent Soul) burst forth. The four Flying Swords instantly transformed into four cold lights that tore through the Void Realm, their Sword Intent reaching the Divine Rank!

Each sword strike precisely pierced the energy nodes exposed the moment the Demon Saint arrived! Under the enhancement of the "Jie" mantra, her attack power surged sixfold!

At the same time, Lin Xiwei slammed her hands down!

"Zu!"

All the remaining Formation light was instantly pushed to the limit! The fire dragons from the Blazing Fire Heaven-Burning Formation roared and coiled around the demonic body, the ice crystal chains of the Ice Prison Formation attempted to freeze its joints, the giant vines of the Wood Dragon Entanglement Formation wrapped around it frantically, the endless sword rain of the Metal Breaking Formation pelted it, and the giant mountain phantom of the Earth Mountain-Suppressing Formation crashed down!

The remaining Formation Flags of the nine palaces talisman array disk erupted with their strongest suppressing power, tightly locking down the circulation of its Devilish Qi.

"What the hell? You ants..."

The Body Integration Stage Demon Saint was incredulous. How could these mere Soul Transformation level Formations be so powerful?

Could it still complete the mission the Devil Emperor had entrusted to it today?

This Black Water Swamp rift was one that their Flame Demon Clan had spent a great deal of effort to successfully open.

This rift could accommodate power at the Body Integration Stage level, specifically to catch the Moonshadow Sect off guard, break through the outer defenses, and probe their true strength.

And now... Having been met with such a terrifying, head-on blow the moment it arrived, the Body Integration Stage Demon Saint let out an angry roar.

"What a joke!"

"Don't underestimate me!"

It waved its demonic claws, tearing apart the fire dragons, shattering the ice chains, snapping the giant vines, slapping away the sword rain, and hard-tanking the mountain! However, Lu Changning's four streaks of Divine Rank Sword Intent, containing the sixfold power of the "Jie" mantra, pierced directly into its weak points!

Pfft! Pfft!

Dark purple demonic blood splattered!

The Demon Saint's massive body suddenly stalled, and its Devilish Qi fluctuated violently! How could Lin Xiwei let this once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity slip by? Silver star-track patterns flashed in her eyes, and her hands formed the final, incomparably complex hand Seal!

"Formation Release: Ten Thousand Talismans Into One!"

The thirty-six Soul Transformation Formations instantly disintegrated, transforming into a torrent of countless brilliant runes! Under Lin Xiwei's control, these runes, like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, instantly condensed onto Lu Changning's four Flying Swords!

"Slash!"

Lu Changning had a moment of inspiration, pushing her Ice Heart calculation to its limit. The four Flying Swords, carrying the power of the Ten Thousand Talismans returning to the stream, and under the ultimate sixfold attack power enhancement of the "Jie" mantra, merged into one, transforming into a glazed-colored sword rainbow that pierced through heaven and earth!

The Sword Intent reached the Divine Rank, cutting through falsehood!

The incomparably powerful Body Integration Stage Demon Saint was split in two from head to toe by this glazed sword rainbow!

The terrifying Devilish Qi exploded, but it was tightly locked down by the remaining light of the outer Formations, eventually dissipating into nothingness.

Except for the humming left behind as the Formation light dissipated, the entire area fell into a dead silence.

Those Disciples from other fifth-grade and sixth-grade immortal cultivation nations who had followed along to be responsible for the outer perimeter vigilance and mopping up scattered demons, as well as the Cultivators from small Sects in nearby immortal cultivation nations who had been disturbed by the demonic disaster and rushed over to support, all stared at this scene in dumbstruck amazement.

Two Soul Transformation Cultivators had actually... actually joined forces to kill a Body Integration Stage Demon Saint?!

The Moonshadow Sect Disciples, however, had an expression as if it were only natural. The Sect Master's Personal Disciple killing an enemy across a major Realm—what was the problem with that?

After a brief silence, earth-shaking cheers and unbelievable exclamations erupted!

"Heavens! Elder Lin! Elder Lu! Your Divine Might is unmatched!"

"A Body Integration Stage Demon Saint! That was a Body Integration Stage Demon Saint! It was actually slashed!"

"Elder Lin's calculations are divine! Laying down such an earth-shattering Formation! If not for these Formations weakening and restricting the Demon Saint layer by layer, we would likely have been doomed today!"

"Indeed! Who could have expected a Body Integration Stage monster to crawl out of this rift! Thanks to Elder Lin's foresight!"

"Elder Lu's sword strike... it was simply earth-shattering and ghost-weeping! The coordination was too perfect!"

"The Moonshadow Sect... is too strong!"

Praises surged like a tide toward Lin Xiwei and Lu Changning. The Cultivators from the nearby small Sects looked at Lin Xiwei with eyes full of awe and lingering fear.

If not for her nearly "perverted" setup of so many layers of protection and killing Formations, they, facing the Body Integration Stage Demon Saint and the aftermath of the battle, wouldn't even have had a chance to run!

Lu Changning retracted her Flying Swords, the ice crystals fading. Her small face was somewhat pale due to the huge consumption of spiritual power, but her eyes sparkled with excitement as she looked at Lin Xiwei: "Junior Sister Five! We won!"

Lin Xiwei stood where she was, watching the slowly closing traces of the spatial rift and the small patch of charred black swamp below that had been polluted by the Demon Saint's remains, her thoughts churning.

This time, it was a stroke of luck.

But what if... what if a Tribulation-Transcending Heavenly Demon had crawled out directly from the other side of the rift? Her thirty-six Soul Transformation Formations, in the face of a true Tribulation-Transcending expert, would probably not be able to hold for even a single breath! Even herself...

No, she had Revered Master behind her. Thinking of this, Lin Xiwei's coldness dissipated, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly.

"Is the world-suppressing monument set up?" Lu Changning turned and looked back.

The world-suppressing monument was erected, and a ripple spread out. An invisible suppressing force diffused, not only dispelling the surrounding lingering erosion qi but also accelerating the closure of the originally turbulent spatial rift traces, eventually disappearing completely, leaving only a faint scorch mark. The stability of the space was significantly enhanced.

Seeing this, Lin Xiwei nodded and looked at Lu Changning:

"Let the other Elders and Disciples clean up the battlefield, reinforce the Seal nodes, and monitor this place strictly. Send a message to Revered Master and the Sect that a secondary rift capable of allowing a Body Integration Stage Demon Saint to pass through has appeared in the Black Water Swamp, and it has been sealed."

"Okay." Lu Changning replied obediently. Although Junior Sister Five was always cold, she was truly reliable at critical moments!

...

True Demon Realm, at the edge of the lava wasteland, on a low, charred rocky hill. The Red Flame Devil Emperor had red flames rolling around its body, and violent lava surged and exploded beneath its feet. It stared fixedly at the traces of the spatial passage that had completely disappeared before it.

"Bastard!" A roar suppressing endless fury shook the mountain rocks, causing them to fall with a rustling sound.

It clenched its fist violently, and a pitch-black Magical Artifact in its hand, used to maintain the sensing of the spatial passage, turned into powder with a "crack"!

"How is this possible?! Could it be that there is actually a Body Integration True Saint guarding the other side at all times? Yan Sha, he..."

"Sigh, it is a pity that there is no spatial altar left, otherwise I would still be able to know what is happening on the other side."

The Red Flame Devil Emperor turned its head to look at a rugged Demon Saint behind it whose face somewhat resembled the fallen Demon Saint, its voice deepening, "Yan Zhuang... it was the miscalculation of this Emperor; I did not expect..."

Yan Zhuang's expression was calm, a flash of sadness and anger appearing in its eyes:

"Lord Red Flame, you need not be like this. To sacrifice one's life for the True Demon cause is Yan Sha's glory."

"Glory?" The Red Flame Devil Emperor waved its sleeve irritably, causing lava to splash,

"This Moonshadow Sect..."

It could not fathom it; where did an eighth-grade Sect get so many Sharp Weapons of war?

According to the most recent news transmitted back from the front, almost every Moonshadow Sect Disciple they encountered had a war flying boat; those Demonic Lords would die the moment they encountered them!

Moreover, in the current Cangwu Southeast, the other side seemed to have deployed some kind of Law object that suppresses space, greatly enhancing the stability of the spatial barrier.

The Yan Sha from just now was sent out by the Red Flame Devil Emperor to investigate the specific situation. When it comes to the level of Laws and Dao principles, Demonic Lords and Demon Venerables are not enough.

The Red Flame Devil Emperor felt vexed in its heart and turned around abruptly,

"What about the Winged Demon Clan? When will they arrive? Yan Yin!"

The sinister Demon Saint who had been standing quietly to the side shook its head, its face also wearing a solemn expression: "Reporting to Lord, over at the Winged Demon Clan... there is still no definite word. The main force of the Wind Demon Clan has already reached the designated position, but the Winged Demon Clan is still assembling..."

The Red Flame Devil Emperor's fury could no longer be contained: "No definite word?! The Wind Demon Clan has already arrived, yet they are still dawdling! Give this Emperor an estimated time!"

Yan Yin braced itself and said: "They... they said the fastest... the fastest will still take half a year..."

"Bullshit!!!"
