Chapter 1298: Sword Song
As soon as the sword song was heard, the expressions of the 3 Ancient Demons changed.
The sword intents that filled the sky sprinkled down like starlights. The 3 Ancient Demons dodged while gathering demonic Qi on their bodies to protect themselves.
“Puff, puff, puff!” The swords poured down like rain.
The 3 Ancient Demons mobilized all of their demonic Qi to resist. After enduring for a while, the sword-lights gradually disappeared.
Even so, the 3 Ancient Demons all had wounds of different degrees on their bodies.
These wounds were not serious, but they would consume a lot of their physical strength.
‘This guy is so powerful.’
The 3 Ancient Demons looked solemn. This human powerhouse was too strong. They were all in the second step level, yet the human was not at a disadvantage when facing the 3 of them alone, and the beasts ended up in sorry states. When the 3 Ancient Demons thought of the 2 Demon Kings who were watching from afar, their expressions turned ugly.
At this time, the Demon Kings were still watching, but they were performing so poorly.
“Don’t hold back. Finish him off quickly,” the leopard roared again.
The other 2 Ancient Demons also understood the leopard’s meaning. The Demon Kings were watching from behind. If the 3 of them could not even finish off a human, it would be too embarrassing.
As such, the Leopard Demon roared in anger. His body suddenly grew larger, and his aura became even more violent.
The Monkey Demon’s eyes gradually turned blood-red, and he began to go berserk. Afterward, his strength and speed would greatly increase. Although it would have a negative effect on his body, he could not be bothered at this time.
As for the eagle, he flapped his wings, and the feathers on its body spread out like steel needles. He opened his mouth and spat out a huge wind blade.
The 3 Ancient Demons were all going all out this time. They had to quickly take this guy down.
Even though there were a few twists and turns, they felt that they could still defeat him.
The wind blade rushed toward Li Xiaofeng, who quickly retreated. The Leopard Demon and Monkey Demon also pounced toward him.
Li Xiaofeng coldly shouted, “Don’t laugh at me for my humble baggage. I have a mighty longsword that can pierce through heaven’s vault.”
Once again, the sword song was heard. Li Xiaofeng’s body turned into a sharp sword, piercing through the clouds and slashing down.
The air rustled. This sword forced the 3 Ancient Demons to join forces to resist.
Nevertheless, they were evenly matched.
Li Xiaofeng’s gaze grew colder, but the corners of his mouth lightly curled up as he continued.
“I have a sword that can move mountains. It has cut through all the winds of spring, but it still hasn’t returned.”
This was Li Xiaofeng’s strongest sword strike, and it could only be used once. Fortunately, he had gathered the 3 Ancient Demons in the previous strike. Otherwise, he would not have used his ultimate move so quickly.
Surging sword Qi pounced at the Ancient Demons, and Li Xiaofeng slashed out with his sword.
A black crack appeared in the long void, and the Ancient Demons’ eyes were about to crack. They sensed a dangerous aura.
“Puff!” The sword Qi slashed down. Half of the eagle’s wings fell to the ground. He was directly split into two.
The Monkey Demon and the Leopard Demon looked better, but they also spat out large mouthfuls of blood. Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
This sword attack was too strong. It seemed to have surpassed the limit of the second step.
Ou Yangming’s eyes were also filled with surprise.
This swordsman called Li Xiaofeng was very formidable. He was comparable to before Ou Yangming had returned to the Spiritual Realm.
‘Such a mighty powerhouse of the second step is much stronger than Li Daoyi, Yang Liu, and the others. He’s probably about the same level as the Heavenly Star Mansion’s master. No wonder he was so confident just now…’
Ou Yangming smiled slightly. Li Xiaofeng was very strong, but he still belonged to the second step. Facing a powerhouse of the third step, he still would not have any resistance.
“Why aren’t you leaving?” Li Xiaofeng noticed Ou Yangming’s gaze and reminded him again.
Ou Yangming shook his head and looked into the distance. There was something he needed there. How could he leave?
He looked back at the injured Leopard Demon and Monkey Demon and said, “I want something inside their bodies.”
“What is it?” Li Xiaofeng asked.
The corners of Ou Yangming’s mouth curled up slightly. “I want their blood essences!”
“Wishful thinking!” The Monkey Demon shouted. He did not expect this young fellow to say such arrogant words.
Blood essences were taboo for Ancient Demons. Ou Yangming asking for their blood essences in front of them undoubtedly stimulated the Monkey Demon, who was already in a frenzy.
With a roar, the Monkey Demon’s body rushed toward Ou Yangming like lightning.
He was blinded by hatred. This human who did not make a move just now was courting death!
“Be careful!” Li Xiaofeng did not expect the Monkey Demon to be so violent.
His gaze focused. This Monkey Demon was heavily injured by him, but he was still not something a human below the second step could resist. Regardless of whether it was a Ruler or a cultivator in the laws, there was no way for them to survive after being approached by this monkey.
With a hiss, Li Xiaofeng swung his sword again. Ou Yangming looked arrogant, he was still a member of the Humans. Li Xiaofeng could not bear to see him die.
Despite that, his sword was still a little too late…
The Monkey Demon was too fast. In the blink of an eye, it had arrived beside Ou Yangming.
Li Xiaofeng’s heart sank. He understood that the young fellow was finished.
Having said that, just as Li Xiaofeng was about to turn his eyes away from the bloody scene, he saw something that shocked him.
For some reason, the Monkey Demon that was originally very fast suddenly became very slow. He was so slow that Li Xiaofeng’s sword flew over while the demon was still moving slowly in the air.
“This is…”
Li Xiaofeng’s eyes were filled with shock as he looked at the young fellow in disbelief.
Ou Yangming took a step forward and stretched out his hand to grab the Monkey Demon’s neck lightly.
Subsequently…
“Crack!” A hair-raising sound rang out as the Monkey Demon’s neck was directly crushed by Ou Yangming.
The Monkey Demon’s life force began to gradually dissipate. After a while, he completely lost his life force.
Li Xiaofeng had never expected that this young fellow would be so powerful. Even if this Monkey Demon was already heavily injured, he was not something that an ordinary person could easily deal with. Ou Yangming’s actions just now had shocked him.
Under everyone’s gaze, Ou Yangming took out a bottle from his interspatial ring.
This was the blood essence of an Ancient Demon in the second step. It could not be wasted.
Li Xiaofeng saw Ou Yangming taking out a bottle and could not help but ask, “What are you going to do?”
“Take the Ancient Demon’s blood essence, of course!”
Ou Yangming smiled. He took out a silver dagger and cut the Monkey Demon’s body.
While the monkey was not big, it had a lot of blood essence. Under Ou Yangming’s control, a stream of blood entered the bottle like a water snake.
The eagle and the leopard’s eyes were filled with fear. They looked at each other and tacitly chose to escape.
At first, they thought that this human who did not make a move was just average and did not take him seriously. They did not expect him to be the most fearsome existence.
Ou Yangming focused on taking the Ancient Demon’s essence blood, but he did not forget those 2 other Ancient Demons.
The blood essences of the Ancient Demons in the second step must not be given up.
“Still!” Ou Yangming uttered lightly.
With that, the 2 other Ancient Demons suddenly slowed down as if they were struggling in a swamp.
“This is the law of time…” Li Xiaofeng’s eyes widened in disbelief.
In the laws, time was the king, and space was supreme. Ou Yangming was the first powerhouse Li Xiaofeng saw who could control the law of time.
‘He’s a genius!’
Even if Li Xiaofeng himself was a genius, he had to admit it.
“Good fella, no wonder you’re so bold. You’re strong.”
The little resentment in Li Xiaofeng’s heart completely disappeared. If Ou Yangming was strong, he was not arrogant but had a sense of justice.
“Why do you need so much Ancient Demons’ blood essences?” Li Xiaofeng asked curiously. He saw Ou Yangming take out another jade bottle, and the result was self-evident.
“They’re useful.” Ou Yangming had a good impression of Li Xiaofeng. He had rejected the swordsman several times but when he was attacked by the Monkey Demon, the other party had even helped him.
This kind of bearing was very rare. He could make a few more friends like this.
Ou Yangming instantly appeared beside the 2 demons. Such a strange body technique gave Li Xiaofeng another fright.
‘Teleportation!’
He stared at Ou Yangming with his mouth agape. ‘This guy even knows the law of space.’
The laws of time and space. Any one of them was more than 100 times more difficult to grasp than the ordinary laws. If an ordinary person were to get into any of them, it was very likely that they would waste a lifetime of talent. If one could scratch the surface, one could already be considered a genius. One who could grasp one of the laws to the second step would be considered a genius.
Now that Ou Yangming had both the law powers under his control, how should he be addressed?
‘A rare genius, or a monster?’
Just as Li Xiaofeng was staring blankly at Ou Yangming, the young fellow stretched out his hand and clapped, ending the lives of the 2 Ancient Demons with 2 slaps. He then quickly stored their carcasses into the poisonous pill’s world.
Ou Yangming looked at the sky, his gaze becoming serious. He turned around and glanced at Li Xiaofeng. “You should leave.”
“What?!” Li Xiaofeng did not understand what Ou Yangming meant. He suddenly raised his head and looked into the distance.
On the horizon not far away, a dense cloud suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
The clouds were densely packed with Ancient Demons!
These Ancient Demons looked different. Each of them was filled with a murderous aura. The ones in the front row were extremely powerful, and they were at least in the law boundary.
More than 100 Ancient Demons in the law boundary.
5 or 6 Ancient Demons in the second step.
On top of that…
Li Xiaofeng looked at the center of all the Ancient Demons.
One was a muscular man, and the other was a huge guy with a ferocious face. These 2 Ancient Demons were the moon surrounded by stars. They were surrounded by all the Ancient Demons. Their auras were ethereal, and one look at them was enough to make people fear them.
“They’re the Demon Kings!” Li Xiaofeng’s eyelids twitched slightly. He suddenly felt like he was a joke.
“It’s over.”
Li Xiaofeng realized that there was no hope left. He did not expect that there were Demon Kings in this Abyss of Despair.
Not long ago, he and the genius had killed 3 Ancient Demons in the second step together.
Would the Demon Kings let them off?
