Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

”Do you think you’re still the Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch outside? Idiot!”

Ling Xiao didn’t retreat but directly thrust his sword.

Second move of the Crimson Sun Sword Art · Crimson Sun Flash!

This is the epitome of speed!

The essence of Sword Intent of speed!

Suspended mid-air, the Hundred-Eyed Demon King Wu Lonɡ saw this sword strike, his eyes filled with horror.

He was accustomed to fighting from a position of superiority, crushing his opponents, so he never considered the scenario of being overwhelmed by his adversary.

Yet today, he tasted the pain of being suppressed for the first time.

Facing the dazzling sword light, the only thing he could do was try to block with his hand.

After all, he wasn’t the Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch outside; inside Black Wind Canyon, his strength was severely diminished, making him unable to exert his full power.

Pftt!

The terrifying sword light mercilessly pierced through the Hundred-Eyed Demon King’s fists, then continued unabated, swiftly piercing and blinding the Hundred-Eyed Demon King’s right eye.

Blood flowed from Wu Lonɡ’s eye socket.

This made Wu Lonɡ resemble a wounded beast, enraged to the extreme.

”Die! Die! You must die!”

Ignoring his injuries, he charged forward once more.

But unfortunately, a completely reckless beast posed no threat at all to Ling Xiao.

”Earlier, I thought I had only a fifty percent chance of killing you, but now, without anyone helping you, you’re doomed!”

Ling Xiao chuckled coldly, his longsword thrusting out once again.

This time, too, it was the Crimson Sun Flash.

Due to its extremely fast speed, Crimson Sun Flash is the perfect move to slay an enemy.

”Stop!”

Suddenly, a tender shout rang out, and Ling Xiao sensed a terrifying aura transmitted from the Teleportation Array, aimed at him.

The person’s speed was exceedingly fast; if he intended to kill Wu Lonɡ, he’d certainly be struck by the attack.

Feeling helpless, he abruptly turned and thrust the Crimson Sun Flash towards the newcomer.

Boom!

The terrifying sword light collided with the newcomer’s palm, erupting in a loud explosion.

Rocks flew, the ground collapsed.

Utilizing Black Wind Escape, Ling Xiao dodged to a safe location, avoiding being caught between attacks.

Only then did he clearly see the newcomer.

It turned out to be Zui Linɡ Lonɡ!

The girl who had once helped him.

”Junior Sister, help me kill him!”

Seeing Zui Linɡ Lonɡ, Wu Lonɡ shouted loudly.

At this moment, he was utterly frustrated and furious.

Because in Black Wind Canyon, he couldn’t exert his true strength, he was nearly killed by Ling Xiao.

This was something he thought impossible outside.

Ling Xiao looked cautiously at Zui Linɡ Lonɡ.

The strength she possessed now was no less than Wu Lonɡ’s, and clearly, she was more rational than him.

Dealing with her certainly wouldn’t be as easy as before.

Moreover, his three sword techniques had already been exposed, so they couldn’t have the same surprise effect as earlier.

”I can’t kill him.”

Zui Linɡ Lonɡ looked at Wu Lonɡ and said, ”But he won’t be able to kill you either.”

Ling Xiao realized that Zui Linɡ Lonɡ was unwilling to fight him because neither party held an absolute advantage.

Though unable to kill Wu Lonɡ, this outcome wasn’t necessarily bad.

Otherwise, facing two enemies alone, he couldn’t possibly be a match for Zui Linɡ Lonɡ and Wu Lonɡ.

”Dan Feng, let’s go.”

Ling Xiao had already spotted Dan Feng.

In fact, Dan Feng had reacted when Zui Linɡ Lonɡ attacked him.

Unfortunately, Dan Feng’s attack was completely ignored by Zui Linɡ Lonɡ, who easily dodged it.

”Ah—! I’m so angry! If I encounter you again, I must kill you!”

Watching Ling Xiao and Dan Feng step into the Teleportation Array, Wu Lonɡ roared in anger, much like a wounded beast watching its prey escape.

”Senior Brother, your cultivation level is much stronger than his; outside, killing him would be a piece of cake. Why bother struggling here?”

Zui Linɡ Lonɡ said calmly.

”What do you know! No, I need to obtain more Black Wind Inscription, I need to enhance my strength!”

Wu Lonɡ suddenly looked at the martial artists standing near the Teleportation Array, revealing a sinister smile.

”Kill!”

He suddenly leaped forward, despite being wounded and having lost an eye, his strength remained terrifying.

The martial artists near the Teleportation Array scattered in panic.

But two slower-moving ones were struck by Wu Lonɡ’s fearsome fist shadows, their bodies instantly exploding and dying.

The Black Wind Inscription was acquired by Wu Lonɡ.

However, after acquiring the inscription, Wu Lonɡ didn’t immediately enhance his cultivation level. It was clear that though he had high comprehension, compared to Ling Xiao, he was still somewhat lacking, needing time to fully grasp it.

”Junior Sister, you may leave; I’ll be here comprehending the Black Wind Inscription.”

Wu Lonɡ glanced at Zui Linɡ Lonɡ, showing some suspicion toward the junior sister who came to rescue him, fearing a sneak attack.

Zui Linɡ Lonɡ said nothing, turning to leave.

As fellow disciples of Zhengyi Sect, Zui Linɡ Lonɡ knew Wu Lonɡ all too well. He was inherently suspicious and ruthlessly cruel.

If they hadn’t trained under the same master, she wouldn’t have bothered to rescue him.

Naturally, she needed to leave quickly.

Elsewhere, Ling Xiao and Dan Feng had reached a safe spot, not near the ruins and thus devoid of other martial artists.

”Thanks for what you did earlier.”

Ling Xiao glanced at Dan Feng, smiling.

Though Dan Feng’s actions didn’t assist him much, he appreciated the intention.

”Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor jests.”

Dan Feng shook his head and said, ”If Your Majesty saw me in danger, naturally you’d intervene, so there’s no need to mention it further.”

”Haha, okay then, let’s not mention it. We part ways here, be careful. It’s not even a shichen yet, there’s still plenty of time until the Purgatory Blood Battle ends. I estimate that by then, there’ll be only about a hundred survivors.

Enhance your strength as much as possible to survive.”

Ling Xiao laughed.

Since Black Wind Inscription can be transferred upon rebirth, if fortunate, one kill could yield several Black Wind Inscriptions.

So despite the numerous talents, the death toll might not be high.

Over time, everyone will likely figure out the rules of this Purgatory Blood Battle: the weaker will find ways to evade, while the strong are difficult to eliminate.

Eliminating a lot of people will prove challenging; he calculated that if fifty to sixty martial artists perished, it would suffice.

Therefore, to gain more Black Wind Inscription, one must make the most of the initial shichen, as it’ll grow increasingly difficult later.

”Understood.”

Dan Feng cupped his hands in gratitude, turning to leave.

Though he didn’t possess Ling Xiao’s skills, he was capable of ensuring his survival.

After Dan Feng left, Ling Xiao continued searching for the next target.

His Crimson Sun Sword Art had two more moves yet to unlock, and at the very least, he aimed to master them for completeness.

In the midst of the Purgatory Blood Battle, obtaining two sets of Jade Grade Intermediate Martial Arts, with one set matching perfectly with the Divine Sword of Light, was such a rare opportunity, he couldn’t possibly miss it.
