Pig Demon Leader, Dead

"Brother Chu is right. Blood Saber King Qi died long ago, so there's no question of him reviving. As for the talk of ghosts and monsters, that's just nonsense," Bai Ruoxue said, not surprised that Chu Jiang could see this.

If not for the life-saving item the Sect Master gave her, this person's strength would likely be no less than her own.

"The Blood Saber didn't pursue those who left the altar. It seems they can't leave the altar, which is good news for us," Liu Guangwu sighed in relief. If the Blood Saber could leave the altar, even if it wasn't in the Vajra Realm, it wouldn't be something they could resist.

Before dying, the Blood Saber was comparable to the Vajra Realm. After so many years, even if it weakened, it would still be enough to dominate the Xiantian level. It would be difficult for them to fight it.

Everyone nodded. This was indeed the best news.

"Damn this Blood Saber, can't even rest in peace after death, damn it!" a bald man slammed the ground. His own brother had just been cut in half by the Blood Saber.

If his strength were enough, he would really charge into the altar and kill this Blood Saber.

"Hmph!"

The Blood Saber took a step forward and pressed down on a certain spot on the altar. A mechanical grinding sound echoed, and the stone wall behind the altar suddenly opened.

A powerful aura of demons swept out, and a giant Tiger Demon stepped forth.

"Not good, it's a demon!"

This Tiger Demon exuded a black luster all over. Its face was as dark as ink, with only its burning fiery eyes revealing its presence.

Its tail grew a long bone spur, white as snow, seemingly containing some unknown power.

Despair filled everyone's hearts. No wonder they had encountered no demons on Black Tiger Mountain and had a smooth journey; they were all waiting for them here.

"One, two, three... thirteen!"

Chu Jiang counted them one by one, his face filled with excitement. Five Nether Rank demons, eight Void Rank demons.

There weren't just Tiger Demons; several Pig Demons were among them too.

This was going to be a windfall.

Compared to the Blood Saber, he valued these demons more.

"We're finished, we're finished! Master Chu, I'm afraid we're going to die here today!" Lu Feiyang was on the verge of tears. They had come to snatch treasures, but it was like entering a demon's lair.

These were several Nether Rank demons.

No wonder his father didn't let him go out. Did he know long ago that there was something strange here?

Father, I regret not listening to you.

Liu Guangwu found Lu Feiyang's whining annoying and slapped him, leaving him dazed.

"My young master Lu, if you keep babbling, I'll throw you to the demons as a snack!"

A dozen demons charging at them simultaneously, the thought alone was terrifying.

The leading Black Tiger Demon was the fastest, instantly pouncing on a lone rogue cultivator.

"Ah..."

The lone rogue cultivator cried out miserably, knocked down and falling into the Tiger Demon's maw, his body covered in blood.

Everyone was shocked.

The Black Tiger Demon didn't eat him; instead, it threw him onto the altar.

There were already many corpses on the altar, blood staining the ground. Through the unique grooves on the altar, it flowed to an unknown place.

Finally, it converged on Blood Saber King Qi, and his complexion gradually became ruddy.

Chu Jiang's eyes flickered, and he shouted, "Everyone gather around!"

"No more people can die. Once the Blood Saber collects enough blood, it might step off the altar!"

"The leading Tiger Demon and that gray stupid pig are mine. The rest of the Xiantian demons, you three can hold them off for now. I'll come to help you after I deal with them!"

Whoosh!

He drew his saber with lightning speed, his body rising from the ground, slashing towards the gray-skinned Pig Demon.

The situation was urgent, and he no longer hid his strength.

Among the five Xiantian demons present, the Black Tiger Demon and the Gray Pig Demon were the strongest, representing the leaders of the Tiger Demon and Pig Demon races respectively.

They had reached the peak of Nether Rank and late Nether Rank respectively.

If he could tie down the two strongest, then the other three Fiend Tier demons could be handled by these three. If they still couldn't hold them off, they were truly useless.

Nether Rank demons could only be barely dealt with by Xiantian cultivators. If they fell into the hands of Houtian cultivators, it would only result in a one-sided slaughter.

He didn't want the Demon Hunters he brought to die here.

Blood Demon Hand, Elder Yun of the Yellow Robe Gang, Bai Ruoxue of the Hundred Flowers Sect, and the other two heard this and didn't say much. They immediately rushed out, each engaging a Nether Rank demon.

The strongest demons were being held back by the government officials; what else could they say?

In this moment of life and death, presenting a united front was their only chance of survival.

"Brat, how dare you call your grandpa pig a stupid pig? I'm going to skin you alive today!"

The gray-skinned Pig Demon's massive pig head shook, dripping a few drops of fat. It swung its nine-section bone staff, filled with murderous intent, and struck Chu Jiang's long saber with extreme speed.

Chu Jiang predicted the Gray Pig Demon's attack route. He took a step forward, turning into a gust of wind to dodge the staff's assault. At the same time, he rotated his long saber, drawing a lightning arc in his hand, and slashed directly at the Pig Demon's throat.

However, the Demon's reaction was also extremely fast, retracting its club and parrying.

But Chu Jiang's blade stance changed again, unleashing three strikes in rapid succession.

Each strike carried a powerful aura, its overbearing might making the Gray-skinned Pig Demon's fingers go numb and its chest heave. Each strike was stronger than the last, leaving it unable to defend itself.

As the third strike was about to aim for the Demon's throat, he changed his move again, slashing at its right arm. The Demon let out a pained cry.

A faint golden palm flashed out like lightning, blasting towards the Demon's chest. The Great Vajra Palm's first stance erupted with full power, its terrifying brute force instantly surging into the Demon's body.

Great Vajra Palm!

The overwhelmingly fierce power almost shattered the Gray-skinned Pig Demon's internal organs.

Chu Jiang, seizing the moment while the Gray-skinned Pig Demon hadn't recovered, swung his long saber down like a raging storm, carrying an aura that suppressed all demons.

The blade was like a shadow, swift as the wind, and as imposing as a mountain.

A large, plump pig's head rolled to the ground. Where it landed, a long trail of blood formed, maggots occasionally wriggling out from the brain matter, a truly gruesome sight.

Blood spurted from its neck, scattering in several directions.

The Gray-skinned Pig Demon was still thinking of how to counterattack even in death, but Chu Jiang's saber was simply too fast, and its force too heavy, leaving it no time to react before its life was extinguished.

Blood still dripped from the long saber, a terrifying crimson.

[Nether Rank Pig Demon, Pig Demon Leader, cultivated for 141 years, 90 years of lifespan remaining]

[Demon Lifespan: 97 years]

"Is that the perfected Demon Suppressing Saber Technique?"

"No... it's the Transcendent Demon Suppressing Saber Technique!"

Liu Guangwu's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief. Chu Jiang's strength had once again shattered his understanding.

For any martial art, reaching perfection was already the limit.

As for the Transcendent state, it was rare and unpredictable. Unless one possessed extraordinary martial talent, it would take decades, even centuries, of painstaking study of that single martial art to possibly reach it.

The perfected Demon Suppressing Saber Technique was already formidable. Once it entered the Transcendent state, the blade stances would be continuous and ever-changing, with every strike landing with heavy force, making it difficult to parry.

As far as he knew, the previous Head of the Demon Hunting Office, Li Feng, had only cultivated the Demon Suppressing Saber Technique to the perfected level. One could imagine how difficult it was to reach the Transcendent state.

The surviving people saw this scene and rejoiced greatly.
