Chapter 202: Chapter 199: Appearance of a Rank 3 Demon Beast

Ye Xuan well knew the poisonous stratagem of Tu Ba.

"No problem."

Ye Xuan outwardly remained composed, nodding his head before heading towards the northeastern part of the camp.

"What a so-called favored son of heaven, nothing but a brainless fool."

Watching Ye Xuan’s retreating figure, Liu Sha sneered coldly. It seemed he had overestimated Ye Xuan. Such a simple trap and he couldn’t see through it - his mind was so simple.

"No matter how clever he is, what can he do once he’s in this Sect Master’s pot? It will be hard for him to get out again." Tu Ba grinned, clearly regarding Ye Xuan as a duck ripe for the plucking, unable to escape his palm.

Arriving at the northeastern side of the camp, Ye Xuan’s eyes also revealed a trace of coldness. After today’s events, any positive feelings he had for Earth Evil Sect had instantly dropped to zero. These fellows, not only did they engage in shameful acts, but they had also targeted him. These people were even more despicable than the Black Demon Sect members.

The forces of Earth Evil Sect were indeed not weak, and Tu Ba’s realm had barely reached the level of a Third Grade Martial Sect Master. Such a level, in Ye Xuan’s past view, was indeed something to avoid at all costs. However, now, they were not an unbeatable adversary. If pushed into a corner, it would not be he who ended up dead.

Thinking this, the coldness in Ye Xuan’s eyes intensified. Since they had bullied him to this extent, they could not blame him for being ruthless. After all, he did not care whether it was the righteous or demon path. Anyone who schemed against him was an enemy that deserved death.

Boom!

Just as the cold light flickered in Ye Xuan’s eyes, those beast shadows glimmering with crimson light had already charged up to the fences.

Boom!

And when the Demon Beasts attacked, immense surges of True Qi erupted from behind the fences, directly blasting the advancing beasts into bloody pulp. Although the Martial Artists’ attacks were fierce, the number of Demon Beasts was dense and turned the fences into splintered wood flying everywhere.

There were three fences in total. After the first fence was broken through, the Martial Artists launched a second wave of attacks, annihilating all the Demon Beasts that had surged forward.

The flying blood and flesh not only failed to stop the Demon Beasts but instead further fueled their ferocity. Some more powerful beasts leaped high, clearing the fences and directly charged into the crowd.

However, there were not a few Martial Artists, and even if a few Demon Beasts broke through the fences, they were quickly slain.

With a slash, Ye Xuan bisected a wolf-like Demon Beast, then with a grab of his hand, a Demon Core was sucked out from the creature’s body.

"Don’t discard such good things as Demon Cores. Leave the slightly higher-level ones for me," Flood Dragon’s voice resonated in Ye Xuan’s ear as he collected the Demon Core. Obviously, the inner cores of these beasts still had some use for him. Although most of these Demon Beasts were Second Rank, their number was substantial. These cores, given their effects on beasts were far greater than on people.

"Understood."

Nodding his head, and to hunt more Demon Beasts, Ye Xuan flickered past the fences. His Spiritual Edge Sword, like a nimble serpent, wherever it passed, Demon Beasts fell and cores whistled out—all of which were collected into his Qiankun Ring.

Every strike of his sword struck the vital points of the Demon Beasts, killing them instantly. The efficiency of his slaughter left the observing Martial Artists dumbstruck.

As they watched Ye Xuan mow down the Demon Beasts, collecting core after core, they couldn’t help but feel envious. But envy was just envy; no one dared to jump out like Ye Xuan. Without his divine swordsmanship, should they find themselves surrounded, they would surely die.

At the central position of the camp, Tu Ba watched Ye Xuan’s rampant killing, his eyes swirling with sinister intent. He murmured softly, "Boy, keep on killing. Better to attract more Demon Beasts and exhaust more of your strength. That way, it will be easier for me to kill you."

Seeing Ye Xuan’s transcendent swordsmanship, Tu Ba became even more interested in Ye Xuan’s possessions. Once he killed Ye Xuan, all of those rich collections would belong to him.

Originally, the northeastern part was where the Demon Beast attack was most ferocious, but because of Ye Xuan’s presence, the pressure there was greatly reduced. His formidable stance seemed to declare, ’One man can guard a pass against ten thousand enemies,’ as the Demon Beasts fell one after another in front of him. Ye Xuan then advanced further into the throng of beasts, whipping up a bloody storm.

Other Martial Artists were also resisting the Demon Beasts’ assault with all their might. Initially, there was some panic, but when they saw the invincible figure sweeping through the beast horde, they were considerably reassured. Coordinating closely with one another, they repelled wave after wave of the demonic onslaught.

Defending their positions and fighting fiercely against the Demon Beasts, their eyes continuously darted towards the figure in the midst of the tide. Though vast was the horde, that lone figure was like a boat in a tempest, steadfast against the surging waves, unyielding amidst various dangers.

"This guy is incredibly strong, no wonder he dares to challenge the Earth Evil Sect."

Looking at Ye Xuan’s figure, everyone also admired him in their hearts; after all, they didn’t have the strength, nor the courage, to plunge into the Demon Beast Tide to carry out a massacre. For them, just being able to protect themselves would be considered quite an achievement.

However, Ye Xuan’s presence significantly boosted their morale. They originally had little confidence in withstanding this wave of the Demon Tide, but now, their confidence had increased significantly.

Roar! Roar!

Just as Ye Xuan was wantonly slaughtering Demon Beasts, an extremely ferocious roar suddenly echoed from within the group of Demon Beasts. A huge lizard-like Demon Beast was striding with ground-shaking steps on a path cleared by the other Beasts, thunderously charging towards the fences.

On this Lizard Demon Beast, an aura that was in no way inferior to that of a Martial Sect Master was bursting forth, causing many Martial Artists’ expressions to change, and their bodies involuntarily moved backwards.

This was a Third-Rank Demon Beast!

"Ye Xuan, quick, slay this reptile!"

From within the Beast Soul Token, the Flood Dragon excitedly cried out. A Third-Rank Demon Beast Core was a greatly nourishing treasure. Back in the Panlong Mountain, those Third-Rank Demon Beasts were its subordinates, making it difficult for it to strike at them, but this lizard was surely a subordinate of the Blood Demon King, and it would be a waste not to kill it.

"Enough, stop shouting; what belongs to you won’t run away."

Since the Demon Beast Core was a great supplement for the Flood Dragon, Ye Xuan naturally wouldn’t hesitate to make a move. The Flood Dragon was now his most potent trump card, and the stronger it got, the more beneficial it was to him.

Whoosh!

Gathering a breath of True Qi, Ye Xuan held the Spiritual Edge Sword and directly lunged towards the mountain-sized Lizard Demon Beast. Midair, he wielded the Spiritual Edge Sword; a myriad of sword shadows streaked from the sky, enveloping and bombing the blocking Demon Beasts.

Chi Chi Chi!

These obstructing Demon Beasts had bodies far tougher than those earlier, and even a punch from a Martial Sect Master would struggle to deal significant damage. Yet, under the Spiritual Edge Sword in Ye Xuan’s hands, their formidable bodies were as fragile as tofu; the sword light passed, blood spurted, and one after another, the formidable Demon Beasts were effortlessly pierced by the Sword Qi and then crashed to the ground.

Ye Xuan seemed possessed by the Grim Reaper, with each passing, a flash of sword light always brought up clusters of spurting blood, after which, Demon Beast Cores after cores were absorbed into the ring.

"What a sharp Heavenly Grade sword!"

Seeing Ye Xuan’s unstoppable momentum, cutting down a large number of Demon Beasts, Tu Ba’s attention was once again focused on him, and then his eyes glinted fiercely at the Spiritual Edge Sword in Ye Xuan’s hand. Clearly, it was a Divine Weapon that contributed to Ye Xuan’s ability to rampage through the Demon Beasts, even making his weapon look dull in comparison to the Spiritual Edge Sword.

"This kid has only just broken through to Martial Sect status not long ago, and he can fight so fiercely. This sword must take credit for at least half of it. Such a Divine Weapon is wasted in his hands. Only in the hands of the Deputy Sect Master can it display its true power." Liu Sha, standing nearby with a sullen expression, said jealously.

"The fiercer he is, the happier I am. The more he exposes his treasures, the more I stand to gain, because in the end, they will all belong to me, the Sect Master," said Tu Ba, grinning, then added with nonchalance.

"The Sect Master speaks the truth."

Upon hearing this, Liu Sha immediately responded, looking towards the figure rampaging through the Demon Tide, a cold smile flickered in his eyes. Such a fool, completely ignorant of the need to keep a low profile; he seemed not to know the meaning of death. What a pity that such blazing talent was doomed to fall midway.

With a splatter!

As Ye Xuan approached the Lizard Demon Beast, his speed surged, and his footsteps became like shadows; the Spiritual Edge Sword in his hand became more agile. The moment it burst forth, needle-like Sword Qi abruptly extended from the tip of the sword, then shot straight into the head of the Lizard Demon Beast.

Blood sprayed, and a blood hole emerged in the head of the Lizard Demon Beast, which then let out a tragic howl. Ye Xuan’s sword had nearly taken the life of the beast.

Roar!

The Lizard Demon Beast was thoroughly enraged. It lay prostrate on the ground, its body undulating powerfully; from its mountain-sized body as the center, gusts of wind suddenly arose, and all its aura converged at its throat. With all four limbs on the ground and its body stretching, it released a destructive roar to the sky.

The roaring sound transformed into a light ball of soundwaves, expanding fiercely from the center of the Lizard Demon Beast. Its speed was indescribable, and in a flash, time seemed to slow down. The surrounding environment froze at the moment before; some Martial Artists held their chopping poses, with blood suspended in the air, never seeming to fall.

Whoosh!

After a moment of apparent silence in the world, the soundwave light ball suddenly radiated outwards, within its range of attack, the fences were instantly blown to dust, all the Martial Artists, as well as the Demon Beasts, had their orifices bleeding, and their bodies were blown away. Subsequently, an even more horrifying scene unfolded; more than half of the Martial Artists and Demon Beasts were torn apart, turning into a mist of blood and dissipating.
