Chapter 34 - 34 33 The Stunning Sword

34: Chapter 33: The Stunning Sword 34: Chapter 33: The Stunning Sword The young man gave a sinister laugh, his long sword like a rainbow, erupting with a dazzling light that tore through the darkness and slashed towards Lin Xuan. This was the Sixth-tier Muculation strike of Yi Dao, filled with overwhelming Spiritual Power, that wrapped around the blade, forming a tangible Sword Light. “Die!” The young man’s face contorted ferociously. “Damn it, be careful!” Tang Yu couldn’t stop him in time and could only use all her strength to warn Lin Xuan. Members of the Blood-colored Mercenary Group, seeing this scene, also showed expressions of tragic determination. Du Ping let out a long howl, shaking off the Sixth Rank Spirit Warrior he was battling. “Brother Lin, dodge quickly!” “Hmph, a Fourth Rank Spirit Warrior, how could he dodge? The Young Captain is a genuine Sixth Rank Spirit Warrior, Du Ping, you’re too naive, and the next one to die will be from your Blood-colored Mercenary Group!” The tangible Sword Light instantly reached in front of Lin Xuan, the violent power causing their skin to hurt. In the darkness, Lin Xuan remained extraordinarily calm. He stepped into the Instant Shadow Step, his body shifting ghost-like, and forcibly moved a meter to the side, dodging the fierce strike. Boom! The spot where Lin Xuan had been standing cracked open creating a fissure, the entire ground caved in, a strike of Sixth-tier Muculation indeed was terrifying beyond measure. “Huh? He dodged it?” The young man was slightly startled, “Interesting, kid, your Qinggong isn’t bad, I wonder if you can dodge my second strike?” The young man said with a cat-and-mouse grin. The bright blade gathered another tangible Sword Light as the young man held the sword with one hand, targeting Lin Xuan. Swoosh! Three thin-as-cow-hair silver needles flew out, aiming straight for the back of the young man’s head. “Hmph!” The young man snorted coldly, turned around, and grabbed them backhanded, the brilliant Spiritual Power enveloping his palm, instantly capturing the three silver needles. With a sinister smile still hanging on his lips, the young man gave Tang Yu a malicious look: “Pretty girl, I’ll make sure you enjoy to the fullest soon!” Seeing the young man turning back, Lin Xuan’s eyes lit up. Now was the moment! He concentrated all his strength at the tip of his sword, leapt into the air, like a brilliant shooting star, slicing through the dark sky. “Outer Heaven Flying Star!” The light flashed, as if tearing the void apart, illuminating the boundless darkness. The young man’s face still wore an evil grin, but the wildness in his eyes gradually turned into fear. He struggled to raise his hand, wanting to say something, yet could only utter a faint sound. His body convulsed, he desperately clutched at his throat, but the blood still flowed relentlessly. “You, you…” The young man couldn’t believe he would die at the hands of a Fourth-stage Muculation cultivator. With a thud, the young man’s body fell to the ground, the blood instantly staining the earth red. Tang Yu stood with her mouth agape, staring blankly at Lin Xuan, and after a long while, she blushed and whispered softly, “So handsome!” “Young Captain, Young Captain is dead!” A cry of alarm rose in the night, echoing through the woods. “What? That’s impossible!” All the Poison Snake Mercenary Group members cried out in disbelief; the Young Captain was a Sixth Rank Spirit Warrior, who could have killed him? Yet, the body on the ground was so glaring that they had to accept this reality. The battle at this moment had already reached its most intense phase, with both sides sustaining injuries. However, the death of the young man still caused panic among the Poison Snake Mercenary Group members. Du Ping and the others were also deeply shocked; Lin Xuan’s move was too fast, too rapid for anyone to react. “Brother Lin, well done!” Du Ping, covered in blood, yet had his eyes gleaming with excited light. With the young man’s death, they were saved! Boom! The bearded big man exchanged punches with Du Ping, then swiftly moved to the young man’s corpse. “You actually killed the Young Captain, our Poison Snake Mercenary Group won’t let you go!” The bearded middle-aged man’s face twisted savagely, with the Young Captain dead, he would also face severe punishment upon his return; the great leader would go mad! “Third Team Leader, what should we do?” The members of the Poison Snake Mercenary Group crowded around. “Awooo!” The sound of fighting had already alarmed the nearby beasts, and now the scent of blood permeated the area, further enraging these fierce creatures. Pairs of green eyes lit up around them, as if clusters of ghost fire were drifting. “Damn, it’s a pack of Demon Wolves!” Du Ping supported an injured comrade, his face full of anxiety. The members of the Poison Snake Mercenary Group also looked terrified, as if they had encountered something dreadful. “Brother Lin, forget about these people. Let’s break out quickly. These Demon Wolves are bloodthirsty by nature, highly frenzied by the smell of blood, and they always appear in packs. Ordinary cultivators simply can’t withstand them.” As Du Ping spoke, he slung his luggage over his shoulder and waved to Lin Xuan, “Brother Lin, let’s break out together!” “Hmph! We, the Poison Snake Mercenary Group, will remember today’s events!” The Third Team Leader gritted his teeth and then glared fiercely at Lin Xuan, ignoring the corpses on the ground. “Third Team Leader, the Young Captain’s corpse—” “Shut up! We’re surrounded by Demon Wolves right now. It’s uncertain whether we can even survive, and you want to carry a corpse!” “Everyone, focus! Fight to break out!” the Third Team Leader roared and then charged in a certain direction. “Brother Lin, let’s go!” urged Du Ping. Lin Xuan glanced at the people of the Poison Snake Mercenary Group. Since he had killed their Young Captain, he had no intention of sparing these people, to avoid being hunted down later. However, the appearance of the Demon Wolves forced him to retreat. “Let’s go!” Lin Xuan pulled Tang Yu and followed closely beside the Blood-colored Mercenary Group, preparing to break out. Whoosh! As soon as Lin Xuan and others moved, the Demon Wolves also sprang into action. Hundreds of pitch-black wolves, baring their fangs, pounced on the corpses on the ground, but more of them chased after Lin Xuan and his companions. Puff! Puff! Lin Xuan’s longsword transformed completely into a Blood Sword. With each strike, a Demon Wolf fell, making the members of his group tremble with fear, as they could not believe how powerful a Fourth Rank Spirit Warrior could be. In contrast, the members of the Poison Snake Mercenary Group were screaming continuously, with people constantly falling, and it seemed that only about one-third would make it out alive. Lin Xuan swiftly cleared the way, his longsword in his hands turning into Thunder Shock, releasing endless energy. They ran for what seemed like an eternity until they finally shook off the pack of Demon Wolves. “We owe Brother Lin a lot this time,” Du Ping wiped the cold sweat off his face, “in the future, if there’s anything you need from us, feel free to ask, Brother Lin!” “You’re too kind, Brother Du,” Lin Xuan smiled, his previously stern demeanor had completely disappeared. “We should find a place to spend the rest of the night.” “It’s almost dawn, if we all stay together, we should make it through,” Du Fang looked around and suggested. The group of seven found a clean spot to rest until the eastern sky lightened. Early in the morning, Lin Xuan and Tang Yu parted ways with the Blood-colored Mercenary Group and quickly headed toward the direction of the Demon Pit, finally reaching the outskirts by noon. By then, some figures were spotted nearby, and Lin Xuan even saw disciples of the Xuantian Sect. “Why don’t you go and meet up with them?” Lin Xuan pointed towards the people from the Battle Group and said with a smile. “And what about you?” Tang Yu pouted. “I have some other businesses,” Lin Xuan put his hands behind his head, “I’m going to look for opportunities while you obediently wait for your brother.” Lin Xuan waved his hand and his figure quickly disappeared into the forest. “Little rascal, always running off so fast!” Tang Yu stomped her foot in frustration. … In a corner on the outskirts of the Demon Pit, a group of people dressed in silver light armor gathered together, among them was a bald big man. He sat there boldly with a Golden Saber, cursing, “How come the third brother and his group haven’t arrived yet?
