Inverse Sword Mad God
Chapter 93 - 93 92 Eagle-man

93: Chapter 92 Eagle-man 93: Chapter 92 Eagle-man The youth astride the tiger demon was naturally Lin Xuan; he hadn’t been able to rent a flying bird, so he had to travel on foot.

Later, under the guidance of Lord of Wine, he had entered a whole new realm, the Soul Realm.

The root of it all was the Sword Intent Seed within his body, which not only enhanced his attacks but also strengthened his will and soul.

It was with the help of the Sword Intent Seed that Lin Xuan formed the prototype of the Sword Soul in his mind, enabling him to use some techniques.

For example, penetrating illusions and mind control.

This first-rank Demon Beast had been subdued under his powerful will; Lin Xuan used it for transportation and continuously studied the applications of this Sword Soul.

Half a day later, the large trees gradually became sparse, and Lin Xuan knew he would soon be leaving the forest.

He gently patted the first-tier Demon Tiger beneath him, signaling it to quicken its pace.

Whoosh!

Swish swish!

Suddenly, sounds came from ahead, and shadows flickered between the trees.

Lin Xuan watched his surroundings cautiously, his body poised with pent-up Spiritual Power.

Pup pup pup!

Dozens of black streaks appeared, rushing toward Lin Xuan with sharp, swooshing noises of cutting through the air.

Golden Thunder Palm!

Lin Xuan remained unflinching; golden electrical arcs surfaced on his palm, and a multitude of Palm Shadows filled the air.

Bang bang bang!

The black arrows collided with the golden Palm Shadows, creating waves of energy that snapped the branches and tree trunks all around.

Huff!

Huff!

After a round of sneak attacks, those hidden shadows behind the branches revealed their forms.

Lin Xuan looked over and his expression slightly changed.

Dozens of black figures, all suspended in the sky.

These creatures had human bodies and eagle heads, their bodies covered in black feathers, with a pair of large black wings on their backs constantly flapping.

“Demon Beasts!” Lin Xuan took a deep breath of cold air, jumped down from the Demon Tiger, and prepared to face them.

“These Eagle-men are all Second-rank Demon Beasts, equivalent to the early-stage Ninth-level Mystical Realm; you’d best break through quickly,” Lord of Wine reminded.

Lin Xuan’s figure flickered, executing the Illusion Thunder Step, leaving behind a residual image as he sprinted toward the forest exit.

Behind him, those Eagle-men persistently pursued.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The Second-rank Eagle-men moved incredibly fast, their hands wielding bows and arrows, continuously attacking Lin Xuan.

Fortunately, being in the forest, there were many trees for cover, and with Lin Xuan constantly changing directions, he managed to avoid getting injured.

Nonetheless, it was still somewhat embarrassing for Lin Xuan.

“It’s no use; if I keep running like this and leave the forest, they will definitely catch up,” Lin Xuan thought as his eyes flickered.

He didn’t immediately leave the forest but instead engaged with these Eagle-men.

“Attack and see!” Lin Xuan swung out a myriad of Palm Shadows again and then leapt up, his body flying toward an Eagle-man.

A blue Sword Qi, entwined with golden Thunder, swiftly stabbed toward the Eagle-man’s chest.

The Eagle-man uttered a sharp cry, while the wings on its back flapped violently, generating two gusts of wind that surged toward Lin Xuan.

“Illusion Thunder Step!”

Lin Xuan condensed a Thunder Illusion in the air; his true body moved aside as his sword light fiercely swooped down.

Boom!

The two gusts of wind struck the Thunder Illusion, exploding into a burst of light, while the Eagle-man was wounded by Lin Xuan’s Sword Qi, nearly having half its body severed.

Huff!

Huff!

The injured Eagle-man lost its balance, continuously descending.

But the remaining Eagle-men all dived toward Lin Xuan, various gusts of wind and arrows unceasingly striking at him.

“Wind Roll Cloud!”

Lin Xuan swung his sword twice more, creating six tornadoes on the ground, all of which emitted blue wind blades and surged forward.

Suddenly, fierce winds erupted all around, with two opposing currents constantly colliding, pulling out nearby trees root and all and sweeping them into the air, while the Eagle-men struggled desperately to maintain their balance with their flapping wings.

“Great opportunity!” Lin Xuan’s body transformed into a blue electric flash and burst forth in an instant.

“Gale Triple Stab!”

“Protective Sword Energy!”

Shrouded in blue sword energy, Lin Xuan thrust forward swiftly.

The Gale Triple Stab consisted of three attacks, each as piercing and far-reaching as a separate assault.

With the first stab, Lin Xuan reached the injured Eagle-man.

With the second, he claimed its life.

With the third, Lin Xuan successfully escaped.

These actions all happened in the blink of an eye.

The Eagle-men only saw three flashes of blue sword light in the air before Lin Xuan’s figure appeared while the injured Eagle-man fell dead.

Seizing his chance, Lin Xuan did not linger but quickly vanished into the forest.

Behind him, the Eagle-men, driven by frenzied rage, screamed terribly and crazily charged toward Lin Xuan…

Beiwei City was a human military base containing a large number of martial artists and abundant resources, standing as the closest base to the frontline.

Many martial artists from the Spirit Sea Realm stationed there ensured its high security; even nearby, there were hardly any Demon Beasts.

At the moment, on the city walls, some armored soldiers were patrolling, mainly monitoring the skies.

At that time, someone detected something unusual.

Outside the city gate, several presences were rapidly approaching.

The soldiers tensed up, preparing for battle.

“Should we report this?” someone asked.

“Hold on, it seems not a horde of Demon Beasts but just a few,” said a lower-ranking leader among them.

They looked closely and saw that was indeed the case.

A young man in black was running swiftly, quick as lightning, pursued by six angry Eagle-men.

“What incredible movement technique, even the Second-Order Eagle-men can’t catch up!” a soldier exclaimed.

“To escape from under the hands of six Eagle-men, he’s quite remarkable!” the leader also expressed his shock.

“Kill the Eagle-men first, then interrogate him about his identity.”

Instantly, several soldiers sprang into action, and soon six large crossbows were set up, ready to fire.

Fire!

At the command, six massive arrows shot out, each over two yards long, whistling through the air.

Lin Xuan executed the Illusion Thunder Step, running fast.

He had eliminated three of the nine Eagle-men, but the remaining six stuck close together, not separating, which left him no opportunity to attack.

Fortunately, the city was clearly visible ahead.

Just then, six black massive arrows swiftly flew out, like six long spears, accompanied by roaring winds.

Thud, thud, thud, thud!

The six Eagle-men behind him were nailed to the ground, their bodies twitching continuously.

“How powerful!” Lin Xuan’s pupils constricted; he could feel the might of the arrows, fearing that those below the Spirit Sea Realm could hardly escape unscathed.

“Who are you?” a voice called from above the city walls.

“I am Lin Xuan, a disciple from Xuantian Sect, here to join the Hundred Herbs Hall rescue mission by the order of my sect!” Lin Xuan gathered his spiritual power, his voice booming.

Soon after, the large bronze gates of the city swung open, and two groups of armored soldiers stepped out, warily regarding Lin Xuan.

“Identity Token!” one of them demanded coldly.

Lin Xuan handed over his sect disciple token and Task Token, while surreptitiously sizing up the soldiers.

He noted that these men had a formidable aura, sharp eyes like knives, and an evil Qi not present in ordinary disciples.

“Indeed, even the common soldiers are so strong at the frontline!” Lin Xuan marveled internally.

Meanwhile, the soldiers verified Lin Xuan’s identity.

One of the men, sporting a scar on his face, laughed heartily, “Young brother is skilled indeed, able to escape from under six Eagle-men.

Truly a heroic youth!”
