Divine-level Base

Chapter 413: Chapter 413: Siege

Experts in the Martial Venerable Realm were high-ranking figures in the Bi Yao Demon Sect, and most of them were Elders.

A single expert of that level could slaughter every one of the several hundred Warriors in Qiguang City.

"Die!!"

Mo Hu gave a savage grin, and it was as if he merged with the ferocious demon tiger phantom behind him. He became like a terrifying demon tiger himself, lunging and swiping a claw at Shu Feng.

"Streamlight Slash!"

Shu Feng instantly activated his Profound Qi, and a pillar of cyan Profound Qi materialized behind him. He unleashed seven saber strikes in an instant, which merged into one. In Resonance with the cyan pillar of Profound Qi, it transformed into a stream of light that slashed directly toward Mo Hu.

CLANG!!

Mo Hu shot out his claw, caught the cyan stream of blade light, and with a forceful squeeze, crushed it to pieces.

A wound so deep the bone was visible appeared on Mo Hu’s right claw, and blood began to drip continuously from it.

With the enhancement of the Profound Qi from Shu Feng’s Lifebound Gu, even an expert as powerful as Mo Hu was wounded by a single slash.

"It seems I underestimated you!"

A vicious glint flashed in Mo Hu’s eyes, and his fighting style changed. His wide, sweeping attacks became a fusion of hard and soft as he channeled terrifying Profound Qi to strike at Shu Feng from a series of incredibly strange angles.

Shu Feng activated his Flowing Light Saber Technique, unleashing a rolling torrent of blade light and a web of Sword Qi at Mo Hu. But Mo Hu blocked every attack. Meanwhile, under the assault of Mo Hu’s incomparably exquisite claw technique, Shu Feng looked hard-pressed and was forced into a continuous retreat.

In terms of physical constitution alone, Shu Feng was far superior to Mo Hu. However, when it came to Profound Qi, Mo Hu’s was much more powerful and pure. The Demon Tiger Slaughter Saint Technique was also an extremely terrifying form of Martial Arts, and the accompanying claw technique was far superior to Shu Feng’s Flowing Light Saber Technique.

"Let’s get him together! Finish him!"

The four Giant Demons—Demon Chicken, Demon Bull, Demon Sheep, and Demon Dog—exchanged a look, activated their Profound Qi, and attacked Shu Feng from four directions.

Shu Feng executed the Flowing Light Saber Technique, conjuring waves of blade light to block the four Giant Demons’ attacks, but he was forced back again and again, falling into a disadvantageous position.

Lacking any of the dignity expected of a Martial Venerable Realm expert, Mo Hu also unleashed his claw technique, madly attacking Shu Feng.

In the Martial Arts Arena of Qiguang City’s City Lord’s Mansion, Demon Rabbit’s Ghost-like figure leaped down from the roof beams, her five fingers clawing viciously toward Xiaozhu below.

Demon Rabbit was in charge of intelligence for the Twelve Giant Demons. She was also a terrifying Assassin who specialized in infiltrating enemy territory to capture individuals who were weak in combat but extremely important, then using them to threaten her enemies.

Many of the Twelve Giant Demons’ most formidable enemies had been forced to compromise and retreat precisely because she had captured important members of their families.

"Just as the Master predicted! You despicable bastards really did make a move on Young Master Xiaozhu!!"

An incredibly strange curtain tore open, and Sun Yiluo appeared beside Xiaozhu with a savage grin. The phantom image of a vast ocean materialized behind him as he clapped his palms together.

Wave after wave of terrifying Profound Qi, like an ocean tide, bore down on Demon Rabbit.

"Damn it, an ambush!"

Demon Rabbit’s expression changed drastically. She instantly altered her attack, turning her claws into palms and pressing down.

In an instant, wave after wave of ocean-like Profound Qi slammed into Demon Rabbit’s body. She barely managed to block two waves of the impact before her body twisted strangely. She coughed up an arrow of blood and shot back toward the roof beams.

Although Demon Rabbit’s combat Power was not strong compared to other Martial Arts Grandmasters, her skill at escaping was second to none. She had even managed to escape from Grandmasters on several occasions.

"You dare lay a hand on Young Master Xiaozhu? Die!"

Up on the roof beams, another bizarre curtain was flung open, and Guo Hai appeared with a savage grin. The phantom of a Flood Dragon appeared behind him, and like a humanoid Black Flood Dragon, he thrust a claw toward Demon Rabbit.

"Stop!!"

Demon Rabbit shrieked as Guo Hai’s strike landed on her back. In that instant, Guo Hai ripped out her heart. A look of disbelief flickered in her beautiful eyes as she fell from mid-air, already a corpse.

Ambushed by two Grandmaster Level experts, a master of the Martial Arts Grandmaster Level like Demon Rabbit naturally had no chance of survival.

Sun Yiluo said apologetically, "Young Master Xiaozhu, my apologies. We’ve disturbed your cultivation."

Sun Yiluo had witnessed Xiaozhu’s cultivation speed firsthand. He also understood that she was the apple of Shu Feng’s eye. Otherwise, two Grandmasters like him and Guo Hai would not have been assigned to guard her so closely.

"What a bootlicker. No wonder he’s doing better than I am!" Guo Hai muttered, feeling rather speechless. He dragged Demon Rabbit’s corpse up and casually tossed it behind a screen.

Xiaozhu’s delicate brows furrowed slightly. "Is Brother Feng fighting enemies up ahead?"

Sun Yiluo replied, "Yes!"

Xiaozhu said, "Then you two should hurry and help Brother Feng! I can protect myself!"

"We can’t! Young Master Xiaozhu, the Master’s order was to protect you at all costs."

"The Master’s Divine Skill is peerless and his combat Power is heaven-defying. The Twelve Giant Demons are no match for him. Young Master Xiaozhu, as long as you remain safe and don’t distract the Master, you will be providing him with the greatest possible help," Sun Yiluo said quickly.

Xiaozhu’s voice was a little downcast. "I’m still too weak!!"

Sun Yiluo consoled her, "Young Master Xiaozhu, you reached the Grand Martial Master realm in just two short months. That kind of speed is heaven-defying. As long as you advance steadily and solidify your foundation, you will definitely become a Martial Saint in the future. Then you’ll be able to help the Master!"

A determined glint flashed in Xiaozhu’s beautiful eyes. "I will cultivate with all my heart, and I will never let Brother Feng down!"

「At the front of Qiguang City’s City Lord’s Mansion.」

Shu Feng brandished his Flowing Light Saber Technique, locked in a fierce battle with Mo Hu and the four other Giant Demons. They had already exchanged several hundred blows in rapid succession. Though he was steadily pushed back and completely on the defensive, he guarded his position tenaciously, successfully tying down all five Giant Demons.

In the process of fighting the five Giant Demons, Shu Feng’s control over his own Power became increasingly skillful, and the Flowing Light Saber Technique grew ever more formidable in his hands.

"Alright, you’ve served your purpose! Now all of you can die!"

Shu Feng suddenly smiled. The Divinity within his body erupted in a brilliant radiance. The Power of his next slash instantly tripled, and his speed increased by fifty percent.

The blade strike was like a stream of Lightning. It flashed past Demon Chicken, whose head promptly flew high into the air, its eyes filled with disbelief.

"Die!!"

A savage glint flashed in Mo Hu’s eyes. He seized the opportunity to lunge forward, his claw enveloped in terrifying black Profound Qi that condensed into a fearsome claw of light, and thrust it toward Shu Feng’s back.

"Too weak!!"

Shu Feng laughed loudly and delivered a backhand slash like a stream of light. His blade struck Mo Hu’s claw, shattering the claw of light and then cleanly severing Mo Hu’s right claw.
