Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 446: Chapter 445: The Group of Demons Shaken_1

”Kill him! Everyone, join in and don’t hesitate. We are all in the same boat now! Once we kill him, whether it’s the points or the Treasures, we share them equally!”

Xie Zhiqiu let out a long howl, a wave of sound rippling out, making everyone’s blood boil.

”Kill!”

Everyone knew they couldn’t delay; they needed to strike decisively and win quickly.

The four young experts, plus Ye Wuchang—five experts in total—rushed forward collectively.

A shocking battle was about to erupt.

Outside the Sky Demon Tower, atop Sky Demon Peak, a massive aura suddenly emanated from the Devil Scroll. The auras on the names ranked at the very top collided abruptly, causing the entire Devil Scroll to shimmer with brilliant light, presenting a myriad of majestic phenomena.

Ling Chen’s name emitted an incomparably brilliant golden light, while the others all shone with a silvery-white light. The two types of light interwove, seemingly on the verge of devouring Ling Chen’s name entirely.

”The fight has started!”

Countless Demon Way Experts witnessed this scene, their spirits tensing, their bodies twitching violently. They knew what was happening: a group was besieging Ling Chen.

”Look! On the Devil Scroll, the auras of Xie Zhiqiu, Teng Beast, Xun Wujie, Xie Xinyin, and Ye Wuchang have collided with Ling Chen’s aura!”

”The real battle has begun! Those four young men are renowned young titans in our Demon Way. For them to actually join forces to besiege Ling Chen alone is something rarely seen in a hundred years. Even if Ling Chen is monstrously talented and has consecutively slain numerous geniuses, he surely can’t withstand an assault by so many experts, can he?”

”However, Ling Chen hasn’t fallen; his name continues to blaze with light. What a pity, what a pity we can’t witness this battle and can only sense it through the Devil Scroll.”

A heated discussion erupted among the crowd.

”This is not good!”

Elder Beiming and the others’ expressions changed. ”The worst thing I feared has happened! Five young experts are ambushing our young master. It’s incredibly dangerous! Even if our young master is exceptionally talented, two fists are no match for four hands. I fear he won’t be able to withstand such a combined assault.”

”Indeed, this situation is perilous. But there’s nothing we can do now. Our young master will certainly turn this calamity into an opportunity.” The Black Swordsman also looked grave. But remembering the immense secret hidden within Ling Chen, he immediately felt significantly more reassured.

”Haha, Ling Chen! So you too have a day like this! I want to see how you, this little bastard, will die!” The leader of the Green-faced Demon Sect laughed uproariously, his eyes cruel and ferocious, staring intently at the Devil Scroll, eager to witness Ling Chen’s fall with his own eyes.

”This brat has finally met divine retribution! He thoroughly deserves to die!”

The Tiger Demon Sect, Bull Demon Sect, and Leopard Demon Sect all wore fierce expressions, wishing they could rush in themselves to help the five and slay Ling Chen.

”Sect Leader, Xie Zhiqiu and the others have found Ling Chen and are currently besieging him,” an Expert from the Skypiercing Peak Lineage reported to Sikong Yi.

”I have seen it. Millennia of effort, all culminate in this single stroke. If we can kill Ling Chen, then I, as the Sect Leader of the Saint Witch Religion, will remain supreme. If we cannot kill Ling Chen, then in the future, the authority of the Holy Church will likely fall into the hands of the Saintess Hall,” Sikong Yi said solemnly, his eyes profound.

”Sect Leader, surely it’s not that serious? Ling Chen is just a child, after all. What power does he possess to shake the position of our Skypiercing Peak Lineage?” A few Demonic Cult Leaders from Skypiercing Peak were astonished. They had never imagined the situation could be this severe. Or was Sikong Yi simply being overly cautious?

”Ling Chen is just a child now, but after winning the championship and receiving a large number of rewards, his strength will undoubtedly ascend to another level. Such individuals progress with terrifying speed. If we don’t nip him in the bud, we will never be able to eliminate him,” Sikong Yi said, squinting. ”Moreover, this trial is different from previous ones. If Ling Chen becomes the champion, he will gain the approval of the first-generation Sect Leader, the Invincible Demon Lord at the Sky Demon Tower Top, and obtain the Invincible Demon Lord’s Demon Way inheritance.”

”What? The Invincible Demon Lord?” Several Demonic Cult Leaders roared in surprise. ”The Invincible Demon Lord is the first-generation Sect Leader of our Holy Church! He is only half a step away from the legendary Saint Realm, an expert who is half a step into the Saint Path! If he takes a liking to Ling Chen and imparts his peerless Martial Arts to him, won’t this brat become even more difficult to deal with?”

”Deal with him? How could we possibly deal with him then?”

The Invincible Demon Lord was their ancestor of the Demon Way. If Ling Chen gained his recognition, he wouldn’t just gain an increase in strength but also an elevation in status. The Invincible Demon Lord was the Demon Path Ancestor! If Ling Chen gained his approval, wouldn’t that be equivalent to being his semi-disciple? In the future, who would dare to act recklessly against him or do anything to him?

”No, this absolutely cannot happen! This time, Ling Chen must die!”

The face of the leader of the Green-faced Demon Sect grew dark. His beloved son, Mo Liqing, had been killed by Ling Chen. If, in the future, he had to watch Ling Chen thrive but couldn’t make a move, it would be sheer torture—a punishment like Purgatory.

The world was watching. Indeed, at this very moment, all eyes were fixed on the collision of the aura on Ling Chen’s name with those of the five experts. The tumultuous sounds transmitted from the Devil Scroll were clearly audible to everyone.

Even some old demons began to infer the state of the battle based on the auras emanating from it.

Around the Sky Demon Tower, countless Experts and the leaders of all the major Demon Way branches encircled the Devil Scroll, quietly observing and awaiting the outcome of this great battle.

This turn of events was, one might say, beyond anyone’s expectations.

That Ling Chen could achieve such outstanding results, slaying top Experts from various lineages, had already left many numb with shock. Everyone wanted to see what he would look like when he finally emerged.

”To think such a person exists in the world! I haven’t seen one like him in hundreds of years. At a lower Realm, he’s confronting so many powerhouses.”

”That Ling Chen is too strong! It’s a pity we can’t witness their battle firsthand. An earth-shattering fight, undoubtedly the greatest battle! Xie Zhiqiu, Xun Wujie, and Teng Beast are all invincible figures among the younger generation.”

”That Xie Xinyin and Ye Wuchang are both Seventh-Level Grandmasters. They possess extraordinary items and are not opponents to be taken lightly.”

”All five of them are top-tier figures, ganging up on Ling Chen alone. Can Ling Chen possibly withstand their assault?”

”I believe his chances are slim. At best, he might manage to flee in disarray. However, even fleeing would be a victory, as no one would dare underestimate him then.”

”Underestimate him? My heavens, who would dare underestimate him now? Even those peak masters at the Great Master Ninth Level probably wouldn’t dare look down on him anymore!”

The entire vicinity of Sky Demon Peak was engulfed in a fervent atmosphere, filled with worry, excitement, curiosity, and schadenfreude...

All their eyes were fixed on the Devil Scroll; the moment any name dimmed, it would signify that person’s fall.
