Chapter 975: Chapter 55: Sword Killing Return Ring (Two in One) _2

Remaining amongst the Demonic Clan to perform puppet shows meant at least there would be a large audience, along with groups of flirtatious little fox spirits, but here there were only two bachelors to watch—one of whom didn’t even have a physical body.

Young Master Xunyang was truly stifled.

During these days, he relied solely on using puppets transformed into humans for company, but in the end, puppets lack spirituality, and over time he almost suffered a mental breakdown.

Moreover, although he was nominally guarding Demon Slaying Gorge.

But with Dragon Thorn Ridge in front, and a tens of thousands of years old Ghost Bone Dragon there, who could possibly come over?!

Therefore, when Immortal Qi Jing appeared, both Lu Chengyou and Young Master Xunyang were rather excited, thinking that if this person could be spared from killing, it would be good even just to have someone to talk to.

However, when Lu Chengyou appeared, Chu Liang, standing behind Immortal Qi Jing, recognized him at a glance.

Lu Chengyou, hearing someone call his name, turned around and recognized that the young man was actually the one who had ruined his plans at the Shu Mountain Peak Conference.

"Chu Liang?" He recalled the name and immediately let out a shout.

If it hadn’t been for him, his plan to destroy Guard Peak would have succeeded, Mars would not have deemed him incompetent and abandoned him, and how could his fate have fallen to this point?

The figure who had brandished the Purple Green Double Swords in the final moment, though somewhat blurred, was still very clear in his hatred. Although Lu Cang had explained the past events to him, Lu Chengyou still believed that his current downfall was entirely caused by Shu Mountain.

I don’t care whether it’s a misunderstanding or not; in any case, you are my enemy.

"Good timing!" He then snarled again with a vicious smile, "Heaven’s Gate opens but you do not enter; Demon Slaying Gorge has no gate yet you break in!"

...

Lu Chengyou did not recognize Immortal Qi Jing, but Immortal Qi Jing recognized him, as he was also the one who had secretly given Chu Liang a great deal of help during the Shu Mountain Peak Conference.

Toward this enemy of Shu Mountain, he had no second words to say. He formed seals with both hands, and the unfathomable depths of the gorge suddenly stirred up a sky-high tidal wave that condensed into an army of thousands, ready to crush Lu Chengyou’s tiny body to smithereens!

However, Lu Chengyou was not at all afraid, and as soon as he spat out of his mouth a black sword shadow whizzed out!

Immortal Qi Jing clearly saw him launch an attack, but when he tried to dodge, he found the small sword, as if carrying an inescapable lock-on, instantly followed him!

Immortal Qi Jing could only open his palm to meet it, and with a puff, his hand was pierced through, with a bloody hole left behind. A mass of dark energy spread around, preventing his cultivation from healing the wound.

The small sword hit its target and then looped back to be swallowed by Lu Chengyou again.

"Hehehe, do you think I’m still the same as I was at the Shu Mountain Peak Conference?" Lu Chengyou laughed heartily: "Even if Wen Yuan stood before me now, he would be easily defeated!"

"If you’re so powerful, why not go back and take revenge?" Chu Liang suddenly asked.

"..." Lu Chengyou was stumped by his question, paused for a moment, then roared: "I’ll kill you first!"

As he spoke, he spat out that shadow again.

Chu Liang had already seen clearly that Lu Chengyou’s cultivation realm was still in the Seventh Realm and had not changed, but he had once been stripped of his physical body and had his godly soul torn apart; what remained of his true Qi was that of the Fifth or Sixth Realm, not even the strength of Heaven’s Gate.

His power all came from that little sword.

This little sword, a divine weapon from nowhere, was as swift as the wind, its blade capable of cutting through anything, imbued with an unstoppable spirituality, and most outrageously, it could be manipulated at will by Lu Chengyou.

But even if a divine weapon is invincible, the low cultivation of its user is ultimately a weakness.

Seeing the little sword flying towards him, Chu Liang instantly transformed into a bolt of lightning fleeing into the distance, pulling the Daoist Master Wu Ju to the max, while shouting loudly, "Deal with him first!"

All they needed to do was to distract the little sword for a while, and the remaining few would find handling Lu Chengyou to be like child’s play.

The shadow followed him as he flew away; Sword Emperor of the Western Sea and Jiang Yuebai flanked and attacked Lu Chengyou from left and right, their sword Qi mighty as the ocean!

But at that moment, a black iron ring flew out from the side of the gorge, whirling around Lu Chengyou in midair. The sword Qi that struck it was diverted, making a full circle before being thrust back again!

The Sword Emperor of the Western Sea’s sword Qi was redirected at Jiang Yuebai, and Jiang Yuebai’s sword Qi at the Sword Emperor, each of them making a move only to suddenly encounter a counterattack, blocking with their swords and retreating again and again.

Immortal Qi Jing made another move, pointing with a finger. He recognized that the black ring was off, and instead of trying to break through, he cast a curse of the five exhaustions and seven injuries.

Unexpectedly, the ring spun around, and even the ethereal curse was reflected back, causing Immortal Qi Jing to suddenly feel a heaviness in his body, stricken by his own curse.

"Pugh." He coughed up a mouthful of black blood, forcibly dispelling his own curse, but having suffered two consecutive injuries, his brow was deeply furrowed.

Chu Liang, on the other side, was creating countless copies of himself in an attempt to confuse the little sword, but the black sword shadow struck his true body, slicing deeply into his thigh and spraying fresh blood before victoriously returning.

Under the hunt of the little sword, not being struck down by a single blow was already the mark of a cultivator.

The indestructible sword and the ring returning all attacks, when combined, these two magic artifacts surprisingly caused great trouble to several strong cultivators, even though the user had extremely low cultivation!

"You’re quite tough to kill!" Lu Chengyou cursed and then turned his gaze to Jiang Yuebai and the Sword Emperor of the Western Sea.

"Retreat first!" Immortal Qi Jing intended to use Shu Mountain Divine Boat to crush his way over, but he was also worried about him taking his daughter and Chen Erniu as targets, as they were powerless to withstand a single sword blow. It seemed that the little sword was not something others could help obstruct without it drawing blood from its target.
