Chapter 78: Battling the Old Demon



Chapter 78: Battling the Old Demon

"Keke!"

Old Demon Xu landed in front of them with a strange laugh, his voice chilly and harsh, and it was creepy.

"He's here!"

Lu Buping shouted and was unable to suppress his fear. Even though the helmet covered his face, the trembling of his body revealed his emotions to everyone.

No one was going to laugh at him.

The powerful aura of the second-rate expert Old Demon Xu made everyone feel immense pressure. They were overwhelmed as if the sky had collapsed.

That taste can no longer be described as simple fear.

Shock, tension, anxiety

Everyone was feeling all sorts of negative emotions, but nobody escaped!

"Attack together and kill him!" Yiqian nervously shouted before launching an attack.

Lu Buping, Mo Yu, and Yun Taizi followed closely behind.

They used all their strongest sword arts, and they did not dare to hold back.

Northern Hengshan's Myriad Blossoms Sword Art!

Songshan's Seventeen Styles of Quick and Slow Sword Art!

Southern Hengshan's Returning Winds Falling Swan Sword Art!

Taishan's Seven Stars Descending the Skies!

The four great sword arts greeted Old Demon Xu.

After a few days of bloody battles, the sword arts of the four have become seasoned and polished.

Their swords are extremely fast and accurate!

The power has vastly improved compared to a few days ago.

Also, the four of them were able to coordinate well with each other, with Lu Buping, Mo Yu, and Yun Taizi focusing on offense while Yiqian focused on defense, further boosting their fighting prowess.

Old Demon Xu laughed and pounced forward like an eagle, revealing his claw-like hands dripping with blood and shining with a fascinating blood-red luster as he met them.

Peng-peng-peng!

However, the greatly enhanced power of their superior sword arts was still not a match for Old Demon Xu's Eagle Claws.

The four sword arts were broken at the same time!

Before they had time to react, Old Demon Xu waved his hands.

Pu-pu-pu!

The Eagle Claws struck the positions of their hearts.

Due to the protection of the heavy armor, their bodies were kept safe.

However, the four people were blasted several meters away by the huge force before crashing onto the ground and rendered immobile.

Having suffered a heavy blow to their chests, their bodies went stiff.

All of them had been heavily injured and were no longer able to fight!

In just two moves!

If not for their heavy armor, the four of them would have been killed!

The power of the devil was clear for all to see!

Hiss!

Lin Yi sucked in a breath of cold air. Old Demon Xu was much stronger than he imagined.

Ordinary second-rate experts, despite being much stronger than third-rate experts, would not have been capable of beating the four people so easily!

It is rumored that several third-rate experts from major sects are able to gain an upper hand if they were to fight second-rate experts.

This is not a rumor, it is normal.

Third-rate experts from major sects possess internal arts of silver grade at the minimum, and their martial arts are also superior ones. So it is not strange for several such third-rate experts to be evenly matched with one second-rate expert.

But this Old Demon Xu was able to defeat the four of them in two moves. This meant that he had already reached the peak of second-rate experts.

Lin Yi smiled bitterly.

To think that he would encounter such a character this time.

The enemy was too powerful!

Even as he thought so, his hands did not slow down.

Just when Old Demon Xu was going to remove the armor of the four people and proceed to kill them by ripping out their hearts, he heard a harsh whistling sound.

Frowning, he saw the Huashan youth shooting a violet arrow at him!

The arrow was extremely fast and it looked as if it was capable of piercing the entire sky.

The power of the arrow definitely did not seem to be small.

Old Demon Xu's face revealed a look of interest as the madness and bloodthirst in his eyes grew even stronger!

He actually did not attempt to dodge the arrow but instead raised his Eagle Claws and grabbed at the violet arrow.

Witnessing this scene, Lin Yi couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

This Old Demon Xu was truly a madman. He was the first person who dared to grab Lin Yi's arrow with his bare hands, and this was the strongest arrow that Lin Yi had shot without holding back at all!

The ferocity of the enemy made him feel terrified.

After fighting with countless people, Lin Yi has seen all sorts of vicious and crazy people, but never has he encountered someone as crazy as Old Demon Xu!

However, if you think that Old Demon Xu has a problem with his brain, it is definitely not the case.

Old Demon Xu was extremely shrewd.

He wants to use such a shocking method to catch the arrow to make the enemy lose their fighting spirit.

Once that happens, they would be easily slaughtered by him!

Of course, the most important thing is that Old Demon Xu believes that he has reached the peak of second-rate experts. How can an arrow shot by a mere third-rate expert threaten him? His heart was full of contempt for Lin Yi.

Being underestimated and belittled.

There was no anger in Lin Yi's heart only a sneer on his face.

All those who dared to underestimate him never met with a good end!

It would be the same for great devils like Old Demon Xu!

Boom!

A violent collision was heard.

The violet arrow brought with it a huge force and collided with Old Demon Xu's Eagle Claws.

The result greatly exceeded the expectations of Old Demon Xu!

He had still underestimated the power of the violet arrow.

Although he managed to catch the arrow, his hand was injured in the process.

The wound opened, and his blood flowed freely onto the ground.

Old Demon Xu was filled with rage!

He was actually hurt!

An expression of pity flashed in Lin Yi's eyes, but he didn't care too much.

Without his archery techniques, although he still possessed his archery skills, he was unable to enhance the power of his arrows.

They were still extremely effective against similarly classed experts, but against much stronger enemies, the effect was greatly diminished.

However, at least he prevented Old Demon Xu from killing his companions.

From a tactical point of view, he succeeded. The only pity is that the overall situation was not affected.

He only inflicted a small injury to Old Demon Xu and did not manage to cause further damage.

Old Demon Xu still possessed terrifying fighting ability.

"Keke, very good, very good! Huashan's youth, you are not bad at all, you actually managed to injure me." Old Demon Xu smiled as the killing intent in his eyes intensified, and he continued in a terrifying tone: "But this is as far as you can go, I'm going to rip out your heart and eat it in front of you!"

"This is the price of angering me!"

As he spoke, he retrieved ten finger gloves from his pockets. Each finger glove is conical and just fits the finger into it, while the tips of the gloves shone coldly.

Placing all ten fingers into them, his fingers now sparkled with a cold light.

There was no doubt that Old Demon Xu's hands were now capable of breaking anything right now!

Even heavy armor could be easily torn!

Apparently, Old Demon Xu has begun to take his opponent seriously. Even though it was just an unremarkable Huashan disciple, but since he was capable of inflicting an injury, Old Demon Xu would no longer look down on his opponent.

The old devil was smart and cunning, and he would never make the same mistake twice!

Seeing this, a trace of pity flashed in Lin Yi's eyes. Old Demon Xu was actually going all out to deal with him. He could no longer depend on his enemy underestimating him. This battle will definitely be a tough one!

This was the most difficult and dangerous battle of life and death that he has encountered ever since he crossed over, and defeat would mean death!

He could not escape, or his companions would all die. Not that he was capable of escaping anyway.

How could the silver grade Huashan Movement Art possibly outclass Old Demon Xu's skills inherited from Eagle Claws Dragon King? Besides a pair of incredibly sharp claws, an eagle also possesses great speed!

Thinking of this, Lin Yi threw Longmang Bow onto the ground. He also threw away all the arrows he was carrying, as well as everything else which hindered his movement.

Leaving just Qingfeng Sword in his hand, even the sheath was thrown aside.

It was time to go all out!

"what?!"

Seeing Lin Yi actually throwing away his bow and arrows, and drawing his sword instead, Old Demon Xu could not help but be surprised.

From what he saw, this Huashan youth possessed incredible archery skills. How great was it to be able to inflict injuries on him?

To think that the youth had something more powerful than his archery skills. Old Demon Xu was unable to curb his curiosity upon seeing such an interesting person.

Stopping his actions, Old Demon Xu silently looked at what the youth was up to.

There were no excessive movements, and the youth merely drew his sword and took a stance.

Old Demon Xu cried out in surprise: "Deadly Chain of Three Celestial Swords? You are Huashan's Deadly Celestial Sword?"

As the youth admitted with his silence, Old Demon Xu laughed heartily: "Hahaha, to think that I would find you without any effort at all. I was just fretting about how I was going to find you and kill you! The heavens are helping me!"

Lin Yi was not surprised. By killing both Blood Raiment Prince and Ouyang Jue, he must have been listed as a top priority target by the demonic cults.

Lin Yi was slowly building up his aura and trying to sense the sword in his hand.

At the moment he sensed his mind connecting with the sword, his expression changed, and his aura erupted.

It was as if he had changed into an entirely different person. The gentle demeanor he usually had was gone without a trace. The only things left were everlasting coldness and immeasurable killing intent!

His killing intent even surpassed that of Old Demon Xu.

Old Demon Xu was taken aback, but before he could speak, Lin Yi leaped forward like an arrow and attacked with his sword. He was extremely fast and he viciously struck at Old Demon Xu's head.

Old Demon Xu felt something cold approaching his head and he instantly focused his attention on his enemy. Raising his shiny fingers, he grabbed at the sword.

Dang!

When the sword and the fingers collided, sparks flew.

The sword was abruptly retracted, and Old Demon Xu had no chance to grab hold of the sword.

Changing his position, Lin Yi now struck towards Old Demon Xu's side. Once again, it was fast, accurate and difficult to defend against.

Reversing his hand, Old Demon Xu made another grabbing motion.

Dang! Dang! Dang!

Just like that, they exchanged dozens of moves, the two of them constantly changing their positions.

It was either Old Demon Xu attacking from the side or Lin Yi doing the same, both of them trying their best to occupy the most favorable position to attack their enemy.

Darting from point to point, both figures were extremely quick, and they resembled two fighter jets in close combat trying to gain the advantageous position before one another, neither giving way to each other.
