Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 166: Candidate for the Battle Demon Gate, Saint Child

With a single sword, it destroys all laws.

Swift as thunder, the Flying Sword Thunderclap shatters everything, completely bewildering the disciples of the Demon Gate.

Uncontrollable, unstoppable, impossible to evade... These characteristics make the Flying Sword Thunderclap like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, unleashing a bloody massacre.

Its slaughter of the disciples of the Demon Gate is as simple as killing a chicken.

This one-sided situation was unexpected by many before the battle.

Before the war, most leaders of various forces thought, "You, Zhong Cang, are indeed strong, but we have thousands of disciples from the Demon Gate and over two thousand Innate Martial Masters. What can you do?"

After the war: "Sorry for the disturbance!"

...

At the same time, after marveling at Zhong Cang's victory, the neutral force, Four Seas Pavilion, sat back and watched, with the only thought being to win him over after the battle.

"Such a genius, destined to inherit the true teachings. We can report to the main sect and request a position as a second-level guest... If it were first-level... we're still a bit short."

Because there was no dispute, Four Seas Pavilion could remain calm.

But the Foundation Building Perfected Beings of the Demon Gate and the influential figures of the aristocratic families couldn't calm their emotions.

Especially the latter, the head of the Yang family in Yangcheng, was regretful to the point of turning pale.

"Damn it, couldn't I just live a comfortable life as a wealthy man? Why did I have to provoke this star of calamity?"

Thinking that there was a possibility of his entire clan being wiped out, at this moment, the head of the Yang family no longer felt the excitement and joy of a few days ago, nor the satisfaction of being one step ahead.

At this moment, all that remained in his heart was fear and regret.

These emotions even made him entertain thoughts of rebellion.

However, surrounded by numerous Perfected Beings of the Demon Gate, he knew very well that he had no chance of rebelling.

While the head of the Yang family was anxious about the annihilation of his clan, the expressions of the Perfected Beings of the Demon Gate were also somewhat distorted.

Clearly, they hadn't expected this situation.

What the head of the Yang family didn't see was the expressions of the Perfected Beings of the Demon Gate, which, in addition to anger, annoyance, and astonishment, also held deep... fear.

There was no way not to fear. As Perfected Beings with a high level of insight, they were surprised to discover one thing.

That invincible Flying Sword Thunderclap, it seemed that they themselves couldn't stop it.

"Sword Qi and Thunder Sound, that's nothing. Although its speed is fast, I can withstand it. But what is that Sword Intent that can shatter everything?"

"Sword Intent combined with Thunder Sound, the two together, the threat of his flying sword is not as simple as one plus one equals two, but rather 1+1=10!"

"With his cultivation, this child can pose a threat to us. If he grows completely..."

"Hiss... we can't let him live!"

Although they didn't communicate, the Perfected Beings of the Demon Gate reached a unanimous decision in an instant and harbored murderous intent towards Zhong Cang.

Fortunately, just as they were filled with killing intent, on the other side, the Perfected Beings of the Cloud Firmament Sect stepped forward first.

The first to come forward was a Perfected Being surnamed Zhu.

When Zhong Cang was preparing to lead his army into battle, he was the only Perfected Being who openly opposed him with words and also the person with the worst expression towards Zhong Cang.

However, as he watched the battle before him and saw Zhong Cang single-handedly suppressing a thousand opponents, his expression, like the others, was filled with astonishment.

But after the shock, his attitude changed. He went from being dissatisfied with Zhong Cang to being extremely concerned.

"A talent like this is what the sect needs the most. He must not die here."

"We may lose this battle, but Zhong Cang must not die!"

His change in attitude caused him to cross the line and fixate on the Foundation Building cultivator across from him.

Soon, Hualin and other Perfected Beings followed suit.

This prevented the other side from having a chance to attack Zhong Cang.

...

The fighting below had not yet ceased, but with a little discernment, everyone could see that victory belonged to the Cloud Firmament Sect.

Because of this, some demonic cultivators had already started thinking about escaping.

No, it wasn't just the cultivators. Some martial Dao sect disciples had quietly arrived at the outskirts of the battlefield as well.

If they were to escape, it would inevitably lead to the collapse of the entire team. In that case, the demonic sect would be completely defeated in this battle.

At the same time, regardless of whether it was the Dao or demonic side that lost, the outcome of this battle would have far-reaching implications for the situation in the Xuan Yuan Realm.

Just when everyone thought the situation was settled, a cold snort suddenly resounded on the battlefield.

"You fools, why are you tangled up with that flying sword? Go and kill the person controlling the sword!"

These words caused some people to sneer.

"Damn it, that idiot came up with a stupid idea. I also want to kill him, but can't you see? That bastard is hiding in the back, protected by an entire army and five to six hundred cultivators. I'll go and kill him with my head... uh..."

Before this person could finish his angry rant, blood started flowing from his seven orifices.

The blood rushed out at an alarming speed, turning him into a blood man in the blink of an eye.

This terrified him.

"No!"

"Don't kill me, we're on the same side..."

Despite his pleas for mercy, the attacks against him did not stop. His blood rapidly drained away, and soon he transformed from a human into a dried corpse.

The gruesome death also chilled some people.

It wasn't until this moment that someone stepped forward and coldly said,

"Come with me, you're not worthy."

After speaking, he looked disdainfully at the surrounding demonic disciples.

"You bunch of trash, listen up. I am Li Yi, the candidate Saint Child of the Blood Sea Sect. Now, everyone, charge forward with me. We can win."

"Cowards who run away will end up like this person..."

"Die!"

"Kill!"

By appearing and immediately killing someone to establish dominance, he hoped to intimidate the scattered demonic cultivators and rally them together again.

It must be said that this so-called candidate Saint Child of the demonic sect had some ability.

And he might succeed. The decisive killing just now had already terrified some people, and the Foundation Building Perfected Being watching from the rear made it clear to the remaining demonic cultivators that if they dared to escape, even if they managed to flee, they would still be hunted down by the sect.

They didn't want to end up in such a situation, so they had to listen to Li Yi's words.

At the same time, if his plan is completed and the personnel are really assembled, it will cause a great disturbance to Zhong Cang.

Whether they can break through the obstruction of the Cloud Firmament Sect and kill him is another matter.

However, such actions will inevitably result in a significant increase in casualties among the cultivators of the Cloud Firmament Sect.

Yue Qianqian and Zhou Cang of the Cloud Firmament Sect immediately shouted angrily and interrupted his words, risking their lives to forcefully break out.

Of course, before the two of them could break out of the formation, Zhong Cang's flying sword had already turned around and swiftly headed towards Li Yi's direction.

"Boom!"

"Whoosh!"

With the sound of a sonic boom, the flying sword Thunderclap cut through the air like lightning and shot towards Li Yi.

Sensing the danger, Li Yi raised an eyebrow.

However, with his cultivation at the ninth level of Qi Refining and his powerful strength, he had no fear and reacted in an instant.

"Hmph, Blood Condensation Transformation!"

With a loud shout, the blood that had been scattered due to the war gathered towards Li Yi like swallows returning to their nests.

As it gathered, the blood integrated and condensed into blood-colored blades.

"Swish..."

With a flick of his sleeve, the blades filled the sky like a torrential rain, shooting towards the flying sword Thunderclap.

Roughly speaking, the first wave of blood blades attacking the Flying Sword Thunderclap numbered in the hundreds.

But... it was useless!

Just like how Zhong Cang used his linguistic power to self-hypnotize, this was an invincible blade that could cut through anything.

"Sizzle..."

With the addition of Heart Sword Intent, the flying sword Thunderclap continued its unstoppable momentum, easily shattering the hundred or so blood soldiers.

"Whoosh!"

Even after shattering these blood soldiers, the speed of the flying sword Thunderclap did not slow down much, continuing to kill towards Li Yi like lightning.

Naturally, Li Yi would resist.

Blood shield, blood sea, blood-devouring tide... Li Yi effortlessly used a large number of blood-based spells.

However, no matter what kind of spell he used, it would be cut off by the flying sword Thunderclap and unable to hinder it in the slightest.

Soon, the flying sword Thunderclap arrived in front of Li Yi, the Saint Child candidate of the Blood Sea Sect.

Along the way, many people had already lost hope both physically and mentally.

Li Yi, on the other hand, remained calm.

However, just when Zhong Cang thought he still had a trick up his sleeve, something extremely unexpected happened when the flying sword pierced through his body - he self-detonated.

Yes, he self-detonated.

"Boom!"

The violent explosion of blood-colored energy spread out dozens of meters around, and this blood explosion also had a special contamination.

On the ground, if people were only affected by the shockwave of the explosion, it would be fine.

But if they were stained by the blood, their bodies would visibly turn into a pool of blood at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Even weapons and armor, and even the earth itself, would be corroded after being stained with dark red blood.

...

The fierce blood explosion attracted everyone's attention.

It also gave disciples of the Demon Sect and some influential figures a glimmer of hope.

"Take away the flying sword, we must take away this damn flying sword!"

"Please, heaven, let us perish together!"

They felt that they saw hope for the damaged flying sword.

However, as the light from the blood explosion dissipated, their mentality collapsed.

Zhong Cang's flying sword was not damaged by the blood explosion and contamination, only the radiance on the blade dimmed slightly.

Seeing this scene, some disciples of the Demon Sect immediately wanted to escape.

The royal family, who had been observing this battle with special secret techniques, sighed. Then, various orders were issued.

Royal Family: "We underestimated the Cloud Firmament Sect... Secretly send orders for the noble families of the empire to cooperate more with the Demon Sect."

A distant and powerful noble family: "This person must not be allowed to live."

And the noble families and clans closer to Zhong Cang: "Cough, actually, I think the incident in Abyss City was ultimately caused by those clans making the first move, so they are also at fault. Zhong Cang, as a Perfected Being, was only retaliating, it's nothing."

Upon hearing this, the elders in the clan were initially stunned, but then they realized and vigorously nodded, saying, "Exactly, I've been wanting to say that. It's excessive to label him as a butcher for such a small matter."

"His behavior can only be described as individualistic..."

...

The candidates for the Demon Sect's Saint Child, these people from the Demon Sect have been propagating for a long time, always talking about how powerful they are and how invincible they are.

But Li Yi's defeat shattered the golden body on the Demon Sect's candidate for Saint Child and also caused a change in some people's mentality.

However, just as some people wanted to strike hard because of Zhong Cang's strength, an unexpected event occurred.

In the sky, the unstoppable and unparalleled flying sword suddenly trembled.

"?!!"

"Could it be that the flying sword was damaged by the explosion, and it was just barely holding on and pretending?"

"No, it's not the flying sword that's damaged, it's Zhong Cang. Look, he's injured!"

"Really, blood is flowing from his seven orifices."

"Who is it, who used a curse to attack him?"

Upon discovering Zhong Cang's injury, the mood of the Demon Sect cultivators instantly became uplifted.

And some clever people, through the fact that Zhong Cang's seven orifices were bleeding, thought of something.

"Seven orifices bleeding, the corpse just now... Candidate Saint Child, you're not dead?!!"

Upon hearing this, a stranger flew up from the ground.

At the same time, a cold snort came from his mouth:

"Hmph, of course I'm not dead. A mere sword qi and thunder sound, wanting to kill me, it's not that easy!"

"On the contrary, the one over there is about to die."

"Hehe, the blood slave of this Saint Child is not someone you can kill just because you want to!"
