The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 918 - 916: Five Demons!

Chapter 918: Chapter 916: Five Demons!

Within ten thousand miles of New Qingshan, the five strongest demon beasts stood together.

These Five Demons were named Lei Peng, Qingshan Demon, Poisonous Bee, Wolf King, and Hua Hun respectively.

Among them, Hua Hun was a woman who originally was a Thousands of Years Spirit Medicine in the Primordial World, extinguished by Heavenly Thunder!

The Five Demons stood at the rear of the demon beast army, looking towards Sky-breaking Cliff.

Hua Hun shouted, "Lei Peng, let’s join forces and charge in!"

The demon beast known as Lei Peng was a bald man, with his body erupting in swirling Thunderbolt, his eyes as sharp as an eagle’s.

"Heh, why bother joining forces? The highest cultivation among these disciples of the Sword Art Academy barely reaches the Human Elixir Realm Fifth Layer. You don’t need to act; I alone am enough!" Lei Peng, who had been watching the battle for a long time, had already seen through the Sword Art Academy disciples’ cultivation.

Upon hearing Hua Hun’s suggestion, Lei Peng laughed coldly, his figure darting out, flying past the layers of demon beast armies towards Sky-breaking Cliff!

"Not good, a demon beast of the Human Elixir Realm Ninth Layer is coming!"

"And it has shape-shifted!"

A Sword Art Academy disciple spotted Lei Peng and immediately cried out in alarm.

In the Martial World, it’s rumored that demon beasts reaching Human Elixir Realm could shape-shift.

But that’s not actually the case.

The demon beasts that can shape-shift are equivalent to the strongest in their realm, much like the unparalleled geniuses of the Human Clan!

However, for other warriors with lesser talent, even if they cultivated to the Heavenly Elixir Realm, they would still not be able to shape-shift!

Yet, since Lei Peng could shape-shift, it naturally showed he was extraordinary!

"Human ants, prepare to die!" Lei Peng appeared in an instant at the entrance of Sky-breaking Cliff, his eyes gleaming with Thunderbolt light, as he threw a fierce punch that thundered towards Yejian Qiu.

Lei Peng certainly knew that the strongest person here was Yejian Qiu. As long as he killed him, the other Sword Art Academy disciples were not a concern!

Boom—

Yejian Qiu was struck by Lei Peng’s palm, sent flying backward, spewing fresh blood.

A demon beast of the Human Elixir Realm Ninth Layer was too strong, far beyond what Yejian Qiu, a warrior of the Human Elixir Realm Fifth Layer, could withstand!

"Damn it!" Yejian Qiu spat out blood and, looking at Lei Peng, his eyes revealed a ruthless light.

"We’re done for, a demon beast of the Human Elixir Realm Ninth Layer has come, we’re definitely dead!"

"We’re doomed, doomed, even Senior Brother Yejian Qiu has been defeated!"

"Are we really doomed to die today?"

Many Sword Art Academy disciples saw Yejian Qiu being punched and flown away, their complexions turned ashen, their eyes filled with despair.

"Humph," Lei Peng looked at Yejian Qiu with a cold sneer then shouted towards Sky-breaking Cliff, "Prince Longlie, Lei Peng of Lei Wang Mountain has come to assist!"

Lei Wang Mountain was Lei Peng’s dwelling.

"No need to shout anymore! He is dead!"

Just then, a young man with a scruffy beard, dressed in a bloodied robe, walked out from Sky-breaking Cliff!

"Who is this person? Is he a disciple of the Sword Art Academy?"

"Why haven’t I seen him before?"

"I haven’t seen him either."

"How come I can’t discern his cultivation..."

Many warriors looked at the scruffy-bearded young man with expressions of astonishment and curiosity.

Upon hearing this, Lei Peng glared at Lin Bai and said coldly, "Nonsense, Prince Longlie is a genius of the Underground Dragon Clan, already at the Human Elixir Realm Eighth Layer. Do you think you ants could kill him? Ridiculous!"

"He’s really dead! If you don’t believe it, when I send you to the netherworld, you can ask him yourself!"

Lin Bai gave a cold smile.

No sooner had he spoken than Lin Bai’s figure vanished from the spot.

In mid-air, a bright Sword Aura suddenly appeared, aiming straight for Lei Peng’s body.

In that instant, Lei Peng’s pupils dilated in a rush, and a thick scent of death enveloped him, refusing to dissipate!

"Not good!" Lei Peng exclaimed in panic, frantically trying to dodge out of the way.

But!

By then, a black Sword Aura had already reached the area above Lei Peng’s neck.

Lei Peng widened his eyes and turned to look back, only to see a black Treasure Sword slashing down at him with the speed of lightning, decapitating his head!

With a swing of the Demon Sword, Lei Peng’s head fell to the ground.

Simultaneously, when the Demon Sword cut through Lei Peng’s neck, a suction force instantly drained all the Demon Blood from his body.

By the time Lei Peng hit the ground, he had already become a corpse devoid of Demon Blood!

"What!"

"Someone killed a Demon Beast of the Human Elixir Realm Ninth Layer with one sword strike!"

"We have hope now!"

"Senior Brother, are you from the Sword Art Academy? Which group do you belong to?"

"Nonsense, with such strength, of course, he’s from the Genius Group!"

The surrounding disciples of the Sword Art Academy now looked at Lin Bai as if they had seen their savior, their eyes burning with fervor.

After slaying Lei Peng, Lin Bai’s figure flashed and appeared next to Yejian Qiu.

Yejian Qiu was also looking at Lin Bai with great surprise, as he did not remember such a disciple in the novice group of the Sword Art Academy!

"Many thanks for your life-saving grace, brother!" Yejian Qiu climbed up from the ground and gave a fist salute.

"Don’t think too much, let’s break out together," Lin Bai said coldly.

"Break out? Heh, brother, as you have seen, the Demon Beasts here are as numerous as hairs on a cow and most of the Sword Art Academy’s disciples are already dead or injured; escape is impossible!"

"The best we can do now is to hold our ground and wait for rescue from the Great Wall Defense Army!" Yejian Qiu looked towards the endless Beast Tide with a somber gaze.

"Are you so certain they will come to our rescue?" Lin Bai asked curiously.

"Yes, with such a large-scale Beast Tide occurring in New Qingshan, they must have received the news by now. I estimate that within a quarter of an hour, the rescue should arrive!" Yejian Qiu nodded lightly.

"A quarter of an hour, considering the current state of the Sword Art Academy’s disciples, it is difficult to hold out even for half a quarter of an hour, let alone a full one," Lin Bai shook his head and said.

"Actually, it’s not that hard. As long as the four Demon Beasts of the Human Elixir Realm Ninth Layer at the back of the beast horde don’t make a move, we should have more than enough ability to resist for a quarter of an hour!" said Yejian Qiu softly.

"The Demon Beasts behind the Beast Tide..."

Lin Bai raised his eyes and looked past the surging Beast Tide to see four figures standing at the very rear!

These four figures were none other than the five most powerful Demon Beasts within ten thousand miles!

When Lin Bai’s gaze fell on these four figures, they leaped up as if by agreement and rushed towards Sky-breaking Cliff!

"They’re coming!" Yejian Qiu said coldly, his words filled with a freezing tone.

"Leave them to me. You organize the Sword Art Academy’s disciples to form a defense line!" Lin Bai’s eyes flashed malevolently as he shot up from his position, turned into a streak of light, and plunged directly into the midst of the Beast Tide!

"Good heavens!"

"That Senior Brother actually took the initiative to charge into the midst of the Beast Tide!"

"Hmph, and here I thought he was some formidable genius. Turns out to be a fool! Even with his powerful cultivation, charging into the Beast Tide now is seeking death!"

"Exactly, just wait, he’s definitely going to be torn to pieces by the Demon Beasts!"

A group of Sword Art Academy disciples shouted in alarm as they saw Lin Bai rush out.

Yejian Qiu also wore a stunned expression as he watched Lin Bai, utterly shocked.

Rushing into the midst of the Beast Tide at this point was clearly a death wish!

But!

What happened next shocked everyone!
