“They killed the Demon Dragon so quickly?” Fang Yuan was slightly surprised when he heard the Demon Dragon’s shriek. “It seems like Sky Fiend Dao Master and Ba Dao have put their lives on the line!”
The owners of the top three Divine and Demonic Armaments were very close to the Divine Demon realm, and they had plenty of methods to fight more fiercely while ensuring their lives.
They were only held back by the Demon Dragon because they did not want to risk paying a heavy price.
Furthermore, the Demon Dragon was supported by ferocious beast armies every time, and it was unreasonable for a few martial artists to fight against so many enemies.
For unknown reasons, however, they were extremely persistent this time.
“Let it be. I’ll get the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber first!”
Fang Yuan put his saber into the sheath and walked forward. His right hand grabbed gently.
Chi! Chi!
At this moment, an unexpected change took place!
Nie Kuang’s corpse suddenly opened his eyes, his mouth making a mysterious sound. ” Zha! ”
The Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber let out a long cry and slashed. The surprising murderous intent split into seven streaks in air and blocked Fang Yuan’s escape routes!
“The Sky Fiend Seven Slaughter Style?”
Nie Kuang’s saber move that had frightened the entire Pugilistic World appeared in this world once again!
You’re already dead and yet you still want to create trouble!
Fang Yuan was not shocked. He knew that instead of reviving, Nie Kuang was only in a peculiar state whereby he preserved his last saber attack in his physical body.
Any martial artist trying to take the saber forcibly would face this backlash!
And this backlash was extremely powerful!
Those who could enter the Lord Pan Palace had to be owners of the very top few Divine Armaments and Demonic Armaments.
However, a large amount of energy was needed to defeat the Demon Dragon and comprehend the God Pan Catalog.
It was almost certain death to deal with the attack from the seven ‘slaughter’s and then the saber without any preparation!
This saber attack embodied Nie Kuang’s lifetime cultivation power and concluded the history of the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber in that generation!
Even Sky Fiend Dao Master and Ba Dao would have been slashed asunder and beheaded in Fang Yuan’s situation.
But Fang Yuan was different!
He was already in the Divine Demon realm now!
Furthermore, with his original body breaking through the 9-Essence barrier, the ability of this incarnation had improved as well.
Schwing!
The Blood Imbibing Saber was drawn out of the sheath again!
The blood-colored saber radiance split into seven streaks, aiming exactly at Nie Kuang’s murderous intent!
The Blood Imbibing Saber versus the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber!
The Sky Fiend Seven Slaughter Style versus the Sky Fiend Seven Slaughter Style!
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
After seven distinct clashes, the murderous intent completely disappeared.
Nie Kuang continued sitting cross-legged with the saber, as if what had just happened was an illusion.
Fang Yuan had resolved this fatal trap ingeniously.
Nie Kuang had made the worst mistake by leaving the Sky Fiend Seven Slaughter Saber Technique in the seven ‘slaughter’s outside! Of course, he was controlled by the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber, and a maniac could not be expected to be sensible.
Fang Yuan walked forward. There was no impediment this time, and he took the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber with ease.
“Slaughter! Slaughter! Slaughter!”
It was a black saber that appeared mediocre, even looking less attractive than the Blood Imbibing Saber.
But when Fang Yuan held it in his hand, the horrible desire to kill tried corrupting his mind and turning him into a maniac that would slaughter everything.
This saber can control one’s heart and soul, and it’s even more powerful than the Kuiniu Eye. Together with the Sky Fiend Seven Slaughter Saber Technique, it can kill any enemy in its way!
Fang Yuan held the saber and stood still, injecting his Qi into this top Demonic Armament. Evidently, he was trying to defeat the murderous intent in the Tiger Soul Saber with his own will and thereby master it completely.
The previous owners of the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber were mostly slaves to it, with the saber controlling the owners instead of the other way round! However, I’m not satisfied with that!
Fang Yuan sneered as the murderous intent retreated in defeat. The saber was finally tamed by Fang Yuan, emitting a sinister and chilling glow.
“Hmm?”
After taming the Tiger Soul Saber, Fang Yuan glanced at Nie Kuang’s corpse and discovered something.
There was an ancient book kept in front of his chest. Since he had cherished the book so much, it had to be something unusual.
Fang Yuan did not bother being polite. He grabbed the book and took a glance at it, surprised at what he found. “The Ancient Armament Manual? So many pages of it?”
Swoosh!
At the same time, three figures rushed into the Lord Pan Palace.
“Ah!”
“Is this… the God Pan Catalog? Pan’s inheritance!”
As soon as Sky Fiend Dao Master and Ba Dao entered the palace, they were stunned by the God Pan Catalog, immediately losing themselves in it.
In their eyes, it was the Great Dao! It was the truth!
They even had a strong feeling that they would break through the barrier that had trapped them for years once they finished reading the entire catalog!
” Sigh… ” Fang Yuan sighed gently. He put away the Ancient Armament Manual and wielded the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber.
Chi! Chi!
Saber Qi swept across the walls and destroyed all the bronze murals on them.
While the Lord Pan Palace could repair itself, it would take a long time to recover from the destruction caused by a martial artist in the Divine Demon realm.
“No!”
When the God Pan Catalogue was destroyed, Sky Fiend Dao Master and Ba Dao both let out piercing shrieks.
Interrupting them while they were going through enlightenment was like spilling the water just given to a man dying of thirst. They would do anything to kill the person who did it!
All three red-eyed martial artists were staring at Fang Yuan, as if they wanted to peel his skin, drink his blood, and eat his flesh!
Although they’d only be misled if they let God Pan’s Dao corrupt their foundation, martial artists—especially those in the Demon Dao—can still improve quickly. I’d probably be killed here if I had allowed them to make breakthroughs!
Fang Yuan held the saber and stood still, gazing at them silently.
Ba Dao calmed down after a while. He stared at the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber in Fang Yuan’s hand and said in a hoarse voice, “The Orthodox Dao analyzed clues for hundreds of years before finally deducing that the previous saber owner, Nie Kuang, had died in the Lord Pan Palace. How did you know about it?”
Fang Yuan’s forbearance was now part of his scheme in Ba Dao’s eyes.
Even Sky Fiend Dao Master exclaimed, “What an impressive Nangong Wuwang!”
Ghosteye, on the other hand, looked upset. He obviously felt ashamed for failing to peer through Fang Yuan’s disguise. “I was too negligent! It’s true that youths are to be regarded with caution!”
While the three of them praised him, their chilling murderous intent could not be faked.
Furthermore, they had taken advantageous positions around Fang Yuan.
“What? The Demon Sect was trying to befriend me previously, and now you’re going to attack me?”
Fang Yuan sighed softly.
“The young are meant to take the place of the old… I didn’t want to do this originally!” Sky Fiend Dao Master sighed as well. “However, you’re progressing too fast. If this trend continues, we won’t have a place in the entire Demon Sect nor even the Pugilistic World!”
“My Spring Autumn Dragon Saber is also looking forward to a battle with the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber so that we can see which one is the most powerful saber in the world!”
Ba Dao held his saber with both hands and lifted it above his head. Saber Qi raged around him, suggesting the violence of the imminent attack!
“Kuiniu Soul Control. Thunder, strike!”
However, Ghosteye was the first to attack.
His Kuiniu Eye emitted bewildering light, his hands drew a talisman in air, and lightning struck at Fang Yuan.
Ghosteye’s move was like an additional force exerted on a tense bowstring, and the silence was immediately broken.
“World Dominance!”
Ba Dao also launched the attack. A torrent of shockingly powerful Saber Qi rushed down like a river, carrying Spring and Autumn with it. Together with the trend of history, it crushed anyone refusing to give in!
That was the real meaning of Spring and Autumn.
But Sky Fiend Dao Master was even more horrifying.
He had mastered the second Demonic Armament, the Sky Fiend Claw, and was currently invisible, waiting for the chance to give Fang Yuan a fatal attack!
Fang Yuan gave a simple reply, “Sky Fiend… Seven Slaughter!”
He slashed perfectly straight with the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber.
Chi!
The Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber emitted a mind-controlling light, completely overwhelming Ghosteye’s Kuiniu Eye. Ghosteye was struck by the backlash and vomited a mouthful of blood.
Moreover, the saber radiance suddenly split into seven streaks and then 49 streaks. They blocked every route and entered the Saber Qi of the Spring and Autumn Saber.
Roar! Roar!
Space trembled.
Everyone felt like they saw 49 streaks of Saber Qi piercing into a giant, golden dragon. The dragon struggled but abruptly disintegrated.
“Impossible!”
Ba Dao took a step back, his face flushing with anger.
How could he step back in a battle? It was a shame that could never be washed away!
But before he could pounce forward, Fang Yuan had already approached him at incredible speed and slashed down with the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber.
Woo! Woo!
The demonic saber made a deafening sound, controlling his heart and his soul.
Seven streaks of saber radiance entered Ba Dao’s seven apertures, disappearing in an instant.
“Impressive saber! Impressive saber technique!”
Ba Dao was stunned. And then he shut his eyes and stopped breathing!
Within one saber attack, the Orthodox Dao’s top martial artist, Ba Dao, had both his body and soul destroyed!
Such a change in situation scared Ghosteye out of his wits.
” Phew …”
Fang Yuan let out a long breath.
While it looked like he had dispatched the opponent easily, he had actually used all his strength.
The most important point was that he had broken into the Divine Demon realm, which was above Ba Dao’s realm, and the Seven Slaughter Tiger Soul Saber also overpowered the Spring Autumn Dragon Saber.
Otherwise, the outcome might have been different.
Moreover, it was crucial to be fast! He had acted so fast that Sky Fiend Dao Master could not react immediately.
Indeed, Sky Fiend Dao Master did not expect this sudden change.
Although he seized the chance to appear behind Fang Yuan, he was late by one thought when he extended his claw.
In Buddhism, twenty thoughts comprised a moment, and twenty moments comprised the flick of a finger.
What could be done within one thought?
A common person might not be able to do anything, but it was sufficient for Fang Yuan to regain some strength!
Aw! Aw!
The Blood Imbibing Saber spontaneously sounded behind his back. Amid the blood-colored light, a vague silhouette emerged.
The Sanguine Demon’s Essence Soul!
The demon gave a sinister smile and extended his arms, shielding Fang Yuan behind him.
Poof!
The Sky Fiend Claw scratched. With a shriek from the Blood Imbibing Saber, the Sanguine Demon’s Essence Soul immediately dispersed!
