With a complicated feeling, An Lin fished out five spirit stones and put the ‘Complete Collection of Sword Technique Basics’ in his storage ring.
He had to admit, this book really was suitable for him! It helped resolve one of his most pressing problems!
Boom! There was a loud rumble in the skies and An Lin raised his head to look over.
There, he saw that the bloody skull was crushed by Cloud Exploring Daoist.
The Demon King of Agony’s magic treasure was linked together with his own vitality. Thus, once the magic treasure was destroyed, he also spat out a mouthful of black blood.
Green River Sword Immortal seized this opportunity and the sky was instantly permeated by a soaring sword intent. A devastating sword projection was thrust out from the sword, and it was like a river which hung from the skies, vast in size and turbulent in nature.
“No!” An expression of despair appeared on the Demon King of Agony’s face. Looking at the fearsome sword projection, he found that he couldn’t come up with any way to block it.
In the blink of an eye, the Demon King of Agony’s body was swallowed up by the sword projection, and just like that, he perished.
…
The Demon King of Agony’s death caused the other two Demon Kings to turn pale with fright. Once Cloud Exploring Daoist and Green River Sword Immortal joined their battle, how could they survive?
Just like that, the two remaining Demon Kings started to fight with all their might.
The Demon King of Wrath used a life-consuming mystical technique which allowed him to become more powerful for a short period of time. His two demonic claws also became larger than humans, appearing especially sinister.
He was insanely quick, and like a ferocious beast, pounced toward The Savior.
The Savior slashed his lightsaber toward the Demon King of Wrath and unexpectedly, he didn’t dodge. Rather, the Demon King of Wrath swiped toward him with his demonic claw.
The lightsaber which had undergone magical modifications was very powerful, and the Demon King of Wrath’s demonic claw was ripped into two. However, a bad feeling arose in The Savior’s mind.
The Demon King of Wrath’s other claw was already before him, and he was barely able to block it with his sword.
Boom!
The Savior was sent flying by this swipe.
A massive force tore at his body and eventually, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Demon King of Wrath didn’t chase after him. Instead, he fled with all that he had.
Cloud Exploring Daoist and Green River Sword Immortal saw this and instantly gave chase.
As for Xuanyuan Cheng’s battle, they found that he didn’t need their help at all, so they stopped worrying about him.
…
The Demon King of Wickedness felt like he was about to go mad.
He had used a mystical technique to raise his cultivation base and tried to flee with all his might. However, he was still effortlessly held up by Xuanyuan Cheng.
Just a moment ago, he was still rejoicing from the fact that it was merely a cultivator of the Spirit Nurturing Initial Stage who had come to block him, and the fact that his chances of escaping were still very great.
However, he had now realized that it was this f*cking cultivator who was the strongest of them all!
After using his mystical technique, the Demon King of Wickedness believed that he was even stronger than ordinary cultivators of the Spirit Nurturing Intermediate Stage. However, he didn’t have an ounce of advantage over Xuanyuan Cheng.
Every time Xuanyuan Cheng blocked his attack, he would be able to leave a gash on his body. However, there was no killing intent in his counterattacks and his intention was very evident. Not only did this person want to block him, but he also wanted to capture him alive!
In normal battles, capturing someone alive was much harder than killing them.
This was because killing someone would only require one to fight with all their strength as if their life depended on it. However, capturing someone alive would require one to fight with great skill and also require them to carefully control their power.
Even in his dreams the Demon King of Wickedness would never have foreseen that there would be a day when he was captured alive by a cultivator of the Spirit Nurturing Initial Stage.
Whoosh!
Within the sword-net, there was a flash of white.
The Demon King of Wickedness was once again forced to retreat by the sword intent, and another cut appeared across his chest.
He was already covered in wounds and black blood was smeared over his entire body.
Xuanyuan Cheng was as spotless as before, and his white robes still fluttered about.
“This is already the thirty-fifth time, do you still want to continue?” Xuanyuan Cheng spoke indifferently as he looked at the thirty-five wounds on the Demon King of Wickedness.
“I’ll f*cking slaughter you!” The Demon King of Wickedness was furious. A black sword projection rushed forth from his gigantic sword as he slashed toward Xuanyuan Cheng.
A sword projection also slashed out from Xuanyuan Cheng’s sword, and the two sword projections collided loudly in mid-air. Energy surged out from the collision and formed a hurricane, uprooting all the nearby trees.
Before the Demon King of Wickedness could even launch a second attack, a sword flashed before him and once again slashed into his body, causing his blood to spurt out.
“This is the thirty-sixth time,” Xuanyuan Cheng said calmly.
Demon King of Wickedness: “…”
Meanwhile, on another side of the battle, the Demon King of Wrath had already fled almost ten kilometers after using a mystical technique to raise his cultivation base.
However, the people giving chase behind him were drawing closer and closer.
“Heh, trying to compete with this old man’s speed? You’re still too young!” Cloud Exploring Daoist stroked his white beard and a mocking look appeared on his face.
He trod upon the white clouds and traveled at such speeds that he broke through the sound barrier, leaving a sonic boom behind him.
Cloud Exploring Daoist—who practiced The Way of the Clouds and Mists—could fully utilize the surrounding atmosphere, allowing him to be far quicker than cultivators with the same rank as him.
Given that the Demon King of Wrath had an inferior rank compared to him, how could he escape from his palms?
“Stop!” Cloud Exploring Daoist grabbed at the air and the clouds and mists swarmed about. A gigantic hand composed of clouds and mists appeared before the Demon King of Wrath and, possessing an earth-shattering power, it swatted toward him.
The Demon King of Wrath couldn’t slow down, as once he did so, he would have no chance of escape.
Thus, he could only extend his black demonic claw outwards and try to rip through the gigantic hand.
Boom! The energy contained within the massive hand erupted outwards, swatting the Demon King of Wrath so hard that he almost spit out blood.
He had underestimated the might of that hand. The power it possessed easily broke through his defensive spells and smashed into his body.
At this moment, Cloud Exploring Daoist had already caught up to him.
Seeing that he couldn’t escape, the Demon King of Wrath’s eyes became bloodshot. “I’ll f*ck you up!”
A mighty aura erupted from his body and like a cannonball, he rocketed toward Cloud Exploring Daoist, his powerful demonic claw grabbing at his chest.
Cloud Exploring Daoist furrowed his brows. “Pervert! Where do you think you’re grabbing toward?”
After yelling this, he performed the Cloud and Mists Eighteen Palms, and a cloudy white palm struck toward the Demon King of Wrath with great power.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The Demon King of Wrath was once again forced into a retreat. The misty aura stuck to him like glue and seeped into his body, eating away at his power.
He was extremely distressed. Forget about being chased and beaten, he was actually scolded as a pervert… Since when had he acted lewdly?
He was unable to swallow this. With a shout, he once again swiped his demonic claw toward Cloud Exploring Daoist’s chest!
Cloud Exploring Daoist became furious once again. “Pervert! You’re still grabbing toward here?!”
Boom! The Demon King of Wrath once again spat out blood as he was hit by the white cloud slash.
This was Cloud Exploring Daoist’s strongest strike. Not only was it damaging, but it could also suck away the target’s vital energy. After being beaten back, the Demon King of Wrath suddenly felt exhausted.
Green River Sword Immortal arrived right at this moment, grabbing this opportunity to launch a powerful attack on the Demon King.
A green sword projection cut through the air and instantly sliced the Demon King of Wrath into two!
With his sword strapped behind his back, Green River Sword Immortal stood facing the wind, a triumphant smile emerging on his handsome face.
He had always been good at seizing opportunities to slay enemies.
…
The battle between Xuanyuan Cheng and the Demon King of Wickedness was also drawing to an end.
Gashes covered the Demon King of Wickedness’ body and his aura was extremely weak. Evidently, he had already been severely injured by Xuanyuan Cheng and no longer had any chance of escape.
A look of despair appeared on his face and eventually, he raised his sword to his neck.
“I won’t allow you to capture me alive, even if that means I have to die!”
Saying this, he tried to take his own life.
However, numerous white seals appeared on his wounds at this moment, shackling his entire body.
This confinement was especially strong, and it was able to last indefinitely, meaning that it would not weaken or disappear with the passing of time.
Xuanyuan Cheng shook his head at the Demon King of Wickedness. “I’m sorry, you don’t have the right to choose death.
“I used the Divine Death Lock Sword Technique on you.
“The more sword wounds you have, the stronger the power of the seals. You’ve already been cut forty-nine times by me. Even a cultivator of the Spirit Nurturing Final Stage wouldn’t be able to break free from these shackles!”
Saying this, Xuanyuan Cheng smiled confidently and continued, “So, congratulations Demon King of Wickedness, you’ve been captured alive!”
