Chapter 354: Chapter 353: Stunning Performance (Seventh update, asking for monthly subscriptions)
With a full belly, the Heaven Eating Demon let out a roar, as surging soundwaves burst forth, aimed directly at Shi Xiaole.
"Monster, cease your recklessness!"
Previously, the Heaven Eating Demon and the high-level fighters of the Lan and Huang families who had entangled him had fallen into the blood pool together, so they weren’t far from each other. As he made his move, the top fighters of the Lan and Huang families also struck, hitting at him fiercely.
"Entangling Silk Palm!"
"Moon Shadow Clone!"
Red Charm Demon and Moon Demon immediately rushed from afar to assist the Heaven Eating Demon, with ordinary high-level fighters along the way unable to withstand their strikes.
"Holy Young Master, run..."
While battling Demon Marquis, Lan Tian shouted as a reminder, there were too many experts here, fearing for the safety of Shi Xiaole.
"Run, can you escape?"
The Heaven Eating Demon laughed heartily, showing his back molars.
There was a repelling force inside the blood pool that made it impossible to enter.
Moreover, surrounded by a wall of darkness that was even more impenetrable, there was a fissure slowly cracking open right in front, but it was still too small for a person to pass at the moment.
In such circumstances, Shi Xiaole could only move within the space above the blood pool. Even with his quick Flying Skill, it wouldn’t be of any use.
"All of you come together and bear my attack, the Demon Wants to Rule."
The Demon Marquis’ body surged forward, the fluctuations in his palms combining into one. It was no longer a directionless explosion, but a targeted one, enveloping Lan Tian, Huang Rong, Lan Ye, and Huang Huan.
He intended to fight the leaders of the Lan and Huang families with his own might.
His audacity left the high-level fighters of Demon Sky Sect blood boiling, wishing they could howl at the sky.
"Don’t waste time, kill him quickly."
Huang Rong bristled with murderous aura. Without his command, the four high-level fighters exhibited their full power, with swirling storm and Vigorous Air interweaving, covering an area of a hundred meters.
Crack...
The Demon Marquis backed off tens of feet, but still forcibly locked in the four fighters, preventing them from escaping.
Fighting four alone was inevitably too forced. Fortunately, he just needed to stall the four fighters for a bit. Once the Heaven Eating Demon and company killed Shi Xiaole, half of today’s plan would be completed.
As for the information leaking out, this time he wasn’t prepared to let anyone from the Lan and Huang families escape!
Relieved of the restraint by Lan Ye and Huang Huan, Red Charm Demon and Moon Shadow suddenly found it easier, especially the Moon Demon with the highest Flying Skill, finally got the opportunity, freed himself from the remaining top fighters of Lan and Huang families, and successfully pounced on Shi Xiaole.
"This is bad!"
Many people’s faces changed color.
Shi Xiaole’s Flying Skill might be faster than that of the Moon Demon, but his cultivation was too low. Once they got into a stalemate, the Moon Demon would eventually catch up, and by then he would be done for.
"Moon Demon, you are just looking for an easy way, I want to eat this youngster’s flesh."
The Heaven Eating Demon roared repeatedly, wishing he could replace the Moon Demon.
"Hehehe, youngster, you escaped me in the Black Devil Ridge last time, this time I want to personally make up for this regret. Hey, aren’t you going to run?"
Noticing that Shi Xiaole stood still, the Moon Demon couldn’t help but feel curious.
"Is there a use to run? Since there isn’t, why should I?"
Shi Xiaole spoke indifferently.
The Moon Demon sneered confidently, "You do know yourself well, saving me the effort of chasing you. How about this, surrender and I can make your death quick."
The Holy Young Master? So what if he’s the Holy Young Master? He’s still at my mercy, for me to slaughter.
Upon this thought, the Moon Demon couldn’t help but laugh heartily. It had been a long time since he had felt so elated.
"To capture me, I’m afraid you don’t have that capability."
Shi Xiaole caressed the hilt of his sword at his waist.
From afar, Red Charm Demon was furious, "Moon Demon, what are you delaying for? Do you fear that the Marquis won’t be able to hold out, move quickly and kill him!"
Whoosh!
Moon Demon moved, and the dim moonlight shot a hundred meters away. His face was distorted with ferocity, "Let me show you if I have the ability to capture you! Moon Shadow Claw!"
The elusive and mysterious intent of the moon emanated, making the Moon Demon’s claws appear fanciful, like the moon in the water and the flower in the mirror. Despite its slow speed, when it arrived, you could feel it.
Shi Xiaole slapped a palm out, exuding demonic aura.
It was indeed the unique skill of the Demon Jade Hand.
Boom!
The burst of Qi was intense, causing Shi Xiaole to retreat more than a dozen steps. On the other hand, the Moon Demon showed no signs of change.
But many people’s faces changed.
Especially the ones who knew the Moon Demon’s strength well. That strike just now, he had clearly used sixty percent of his power, which should have easily killed Shi Xiaole. Why did it turn out like this?
"Demon Sky Hand."
Red Charm Demon ground her teeth.
The Demon Sky Hand of the Black Devil Divine Monarch, known as the victorious finisher, has always had the ability to restrain other Devil Path martial arts. During that exchange just now, Shi Xiaole took advantage of the Demon Sky Hand.
However, if Shi Xiaole’s own power was too weak, he wouldn’t have been able to achieve this.
Moreover, for some reason, Red Charm Demon always felt that the Demon Sky Hand utilized by Shi Xiaole was too powerful and restrictive, it didn’t conform to the usual logic.
"Impossible?!"
The Moon Demon’s face suddenly changed. Frustrated and angry, he gathered all his power, his left hand drawing a circle, creating a glowing white round mirror. The mirror showed the reflection of Shi Xiaole.
As he frantically tore at the air with his right hand, multiple terrifying claw shadows covered Shi Xiaole from dozens of meters away, as if they wished to shred him to pieces.
With a step, Shi Xiaole deployed the Wind Step Foot Shadow from his Wind God Leg technique, his blurry body swiftly streaking past numerous claw shadows.
Despite not seeing Shi Xiaole’s Flying Skill for the first time, many people still couldn’t help but glisten their eyes with a mix of jealousy and admiration.
In the entire Great Cold State, it would probably be impossible to find a leg technique that could match up to what Shi Xiaole has mastered.
"Let’s see how long you can dodge."
Utilizing his Moon Shadow Divine Movement, the Moon Demon started to chase after Shi Xiaole.
As long as his opponent’s Internal Power was drained, what would be the purpose of a faster Flying Skill?
A trail of moonlight and a swath of turbulent figure crossed paths intermittently, rising and diving unpredictably. Their speed was so intense that new shadows emerged where previous ones hadn’t disappeared yet, making it hard for anyone to follow.
If their movements were slowed down, one could see that Shi Xiaole was slightly faster and had scored many hits on the Moon Demon. However, the Moon Demon’s Vigorous Air was exceedingly formidable, leaving Shi Xiaole’s hits ineffective unless he took time to execute his coup de grace.
"Some sacred young master, huh? Nothing more than a frightened little rat, too scared to engage me in a head-to-head battle. What a joke!"
Unable to catch up after a long chase and repeatedly disadvantaged, the Moon Demon began to grow angry and decided to provoke Shi Xiaole.
Shi Xiaole didn’t respond.
"Moon Demon, let me aid you. Roaring Stabilizing War, halt!"
The Heaven Eating Demon, who was confronting the top-notch fighters of the Lan Family, suddenly bellowed. Facing the other party’s fist, he contracted his belly without dodging or avoiding.
The fist strength of the Lan Family’s top fighters struck his belly, making the Heaven Eating Demon spit out blood. But mysteriously, the strength of the fist followed his belly, surging out from the Heaven Eating Demon’s mouth and transformed into a wave, a circle only as high as a person, quickly charging towards Shi Xiaole.
The flurry in the sky stopped for a moment. Influenced by the sound wave circle, Shi Xiaole’s speed reduced significantly.
"Hahaha, Moon Illuminates Earth!"
Seeing an opportunity, the Moon Demon pushed his skills to their limit and executed his strongest move.
A full moon rose behind him, and in its thick, tub-like moonlight, a lifelike claw reached out. With a casual squeeze, the space around Shi Xiaole seemed to explode and shatter.
The situation was critical, and many people didn’t even have the time to react.
Both the Lan and the Huang families saw a single thought in their minds: the Holy Young Master was done for.
He could bear a casual attack from the Moon Demon, but he could definitely not withstand the Moon Demon’s all-out killer move.
"Holy Young Master!"
People like Lan Tian shouted out loud.
Previously, the four great masters combined had made the Demon Marquis spill blood from his mouth on multiple occasions. Unfortunately, the Demon Marquis’s Demon Desire Divine Skill was extremely tenacious, managing to pin them down.
The massive white moon claw shot down from the sky. There was no escape route for Shi Xiaole on earth or in the sky.
Shi Xiaole’s face showed anticipation and tension, but what was missing was fear.
If he was already in a bind, he might as well face it head-on!
An intent that was fiercely murderous and ruthless to the extreme, wanting to destroy everything in the world, emanated from every pore of Shi Xiaole. With his flying black hair, his clean green shirt, and his elegant appearance that was completely contrary to his aura, he looked like a deceiving devil, embodying a contradiction of charm.
His hand held the hilt of the Redfire Sword, Shi Xiaole pulled out his sword with a roar!
Roar!
In a trance, people seemed to hear a shrill sound coming from hell. As it turned from black to red, the rotating Sword Qi representing slaughter and ominousness surged out, bringing up rolling smoke.
Crack, crack, crack.
The huge white moon claw faltered in its advance. The Sword Qi drilled onto it, constantly impacting in the opposite direction. After dozens of times, cracks appeared on the surface of the claw, causing the amalgamated claw force to burst apart in an instant.
Boom...
The sky shook violently.
Two figures were sent flying out.
The Moon Demon’s face went slightly white before returning to normal.
On the other hand, Shi Xiaole spat out a mouthful of blood, his body stumbling backward tens of meters before stopping.
"Still not dead?"
On seeing this scene, everyone present was greatly shocked.
Shi Xiaole didn’t die when facing the full-blown strike of Moon Demon, one of the Great Cold Five Demons, instead, he blocked it?!
The Moon Demon had reached the peak of the Spiritual-Passage Realm and his claw intent was almost perfect, roughly equivalent to the Sword Heart Realm. Plus, with the full intent of the moon, Shi Xiaole, who is in the third realm of the Spiritual-Passage Realm with only a small accomplishment in the Sword Heart, survived in a direct confrontation?
The absurdity of it was just too much!
"His intent has reached the whole, and it is much stronger than the ordinary intent."
The Red Charm Demon looked pale for the first time and a chill ran down her spine.
It was said that the Holy Young Master was just twenty-six or seven years old. If given the time to develop, one can’t fathom where he would reach.
What the Red Charm Demon did not know was that the reason Shi Xiaole could survive Moon Demon’s ultimate attack was mainly due to his spiritual power which exceeded the level of the Spiritual-Passage Realm. It played a significant role.
Shi Xiaole targeted the Sword Qi on the flaws of the claw shadow to achieve the effect of using effort sparingly to achieve a goal. Otherwise, even if the Fierce Kill Intent Realm reached full achievement, the enormous gap between them could not be bridged.
"I can’t believe it!"
The Moon Demon looked extremely shocked and his face flushed red. He was about to launch another attack when Lan Ye descended from the sky, and with a heavy palm, he came forward.
By fighting against four opponents, the Demon Marquis finally couldn’t hold on any longer.
"Who dares to harm the Holy Young Master, I want him to die with nowhere to be buried!"
Lan Ye’s hair and beard were in full bloom, and he spoke like a spring thunder.
"Who dares to harm the Holy Young Master, die with nowhere to be buried!"
All the top fighters from both the Lan and Huang families shouted simultaneously, full of momentum.
Shi Xiaole’s performance had genuinely conquered them. Following such a Holy Young Master, the restoration of the glory of the Devil Path seemed hopeful!
