PS: Chapter 295 had a mistake regarding the setting of the third layer secret realm, which has been corrected.

※※※※

Fifteen days later, on the southern side of the third layer secret realm, there were seven gigantic gold and silver mountains, each about 900 feet high.

The entire bodies of these seven mountains were made of pure silver, also containing veins of gold ore.

For reasons unknown, none of the gold and silver had oxidized and they shone brilliantly.

What was even more astonishing was that the tops of these seven mountains were filled with blood pine trees.

In other areas of this third layer secret realm, no grass grew, but on these gold and silver mountains, hundreds of blood pines thrived, each reaching up to 600 feet tall, seemingly piercing the sky.

At the base of these seven gigantic gold and silver mountains, there was a constant rumbling noise, the ground shook, as if in a thunderstorm.

Here, an evil beast with the body of a deer and the stature of a human, possessing eight arms, was chasing Chu Xisheng to kill him.

It was about the size of three windmills, covered in bone armor, and from the tips of its eight arms extended huge, sharp bone swords. Swords of sword aura, each ten zhang long, swept around, chopping nearby mountains and boulders into rubble.

This evil beast’s bone swords were not only tyrannical but the speed of its eight arms was extremely fast as well.

It could slash at least sixty swords in one breath.

Chu Xisheng stood in front of this evil beast, slowly retreating under the continuous barrage of sword strikes, his expression showing a touch of helplessness.

In front of him shone a silver mirror-like radiance.

This was the Extreme Move ‘Return Light,’ combined with the ‘Void Hall Mirror’ of the Divine Wind Bright Mirror Blade.

After the fierce battle with the Blood Vengeance Blade Lord, Chu Xisheng had mastered these two moves to perfection; they were now as natural to him as breathing.

All the sword auras slashed towards him were completely reflected back by Chu Xisheng.

However, this was futile. The eight-armed evil beast had thick skin and flesh, and a bone armor that was incredibly solid—its defensive strength was comparable to a Fourth-Grade martial cultivator who specialized in cross-training.

The sharp sword auras it unleashed could only scratch its bone armor, leaving only superficial cuts on the eight-armed evil beast’s body.

These cuts healed in an instant, the white bone armor’s regenerative speed was shockingly fast, healing back to its original state momentarily.

Chu Xisheng had already deflected more than five thousand three hundred swords with his sword skills, yet the eight-armed evil beast was completely unfazed, instead, it seemed to be provoked into a frenzy by Chu Xisheng.

It was originally a defective creature created by the ruler of the secret realm, its consciousness was dim and it was simple and foolish, acting wildly and irrationally, which now grew even wilder.

At this moment, it exploded into action, not only increasing its sword speed to over eighty swords in a breath, but the strength of its sword force also more than doubled, extending the sword auras to twelve zhang, some even mixed with traces of Temporal Power, disturbing the void.

Yet this eight-armed evil beast still could do nothing against Chu Xisheng.

The faster it slashed, the more ferocious the sword auras became, but the more it wounded itself, relying solely on its strong regenerative capabilities to heal.

Chu Xisheng still harbored a deep psychological shadow from the battle fifteen days ago.

After using Return Light about three thousand times, he began to feel nauseous again.

Fortunately, a few breaths later, Bai Xiaozhao whistled from the top of the mountain.

Chu Xisheng looked up and saw Little Xuanwu, under Zhou Liangchen’s command, slipping down the mountain with a big pile of things on its back, followed by the ‘Solitary Cloud and Twin Cranes’, the Xuee couple, and the ‘Wind and Thunder Poles’ Ancient Sword, all carrying large and small bags flying through the air.

Even the usually cold Leng Chanra was no exception, carrying a man-sized bundle on his back.

Behind them followed a large group of evil beasts.

These evil beasts also had the bodies of deer and the stature of humans, covered in bone armor, but had only four to six arms and were much smaller in size, the tallest only about 15 feet. They ran through the mountains like thunder, causing the surrounding mountains to shake and kicking up vast clouds of dust.

Chu Xisheng knew Bai Xiaozhao and the others had succeeded.

However, Chu Xisheng didn’t leave immediately; he still had to cover their retreat.

At that moment, he changed his sword technique to ‘Skewed Light and Shadow,’ reflecting the sword auras of the eight-armed evil beast in all directions.

The strength of the eight-armed evil beast was tremendous,wherever its sword aura swept across turned into a bloody mess, severly injuring more than twenty deer-bodied evil beasts, scattering flesh and causing blood to rain everywhere.

This caused veins to bulge in the corners of the eyes of the eight-armed evil beast, and its eyes turned bloodshot red. Its slashes became even quicker, albeit without any method to them, simply slashing forward more crazily, incessantly like a river of white bone sword tumbling down.

Simultaneously, this river of white bone swords was also reflected back by the light of Chu Xisheng’s blade, cutting open its bone armor and flesh…

Just when the huge heart of the eight-armed evil beast gradually became visible to Chu Xisheng, his sword technique suddenly burst forth.

Extreme Move*Eight-direction Extreme Destruction!

A sweep of his blade, imbued with the ‘Formless Divine Blade’, enveloped the surrounding thirty feet.

His blade not only tore through the heart of the eight-armed evil beast but also included several dozen lesser evil beasts charging at him in its sweep, slashing them to a bloody rain, sending flesh flying everywhere.

However, just as the heart of the eight-armed evil beast was shattered, Chu Xisheng’s figure had already flashed a hundred yards away.

He spread the White Tiger Wings behind him and sped away towards the south.

Although the eight-armed evil beast was a powerful Fourth-Grade evil beast, even having its heart shattered by Chu Xisheng couldn’t kill it.

At this time, it was Chu Xisheng’s Golden Wind Jade Dew Sabers that could no longer bear the strain.

If he continued to reflect attacks, his blades would break.
