Black Mountain Evil Forces Successfully Annihilated by Police!

"HAHAHAHAHA!!!!"

As if hearing something utterly ridiculous, the Black Mountain Demon burst into raucous laughter, stirring up boundless gusts of yin wind. The Wrathful Ghosts clinging to his body joined in with piercing, shrill cackles that sent chills down the spine.

After his laughter subsided, the Black Mountain Demon tilted his skeletal head, the two clusters of ghost fire in his eyes flickering dimly as he sneered at Yan Chixia and Xiao Han. "With two wastes like you, you dare spout such arrogant nonsense?"

In the face of the Black Mountain Demon's mockery, Xiao Han and Yan Chixia chose to let their strength speak for itself.

"Heaven and Earth Have No Limits, Borrowing the Law of Heaven and Earth! Xuan Yuan Divine Sword, drive out demons and subdue fiends! Wind and Fire Divine Soldiers Obey the Law!"

"Heaven and Earth Have No Limits, Borrowing the Law of Heaven and Earth! Wind, rain, thunder, lightning, haste as the law commands! Summon Heavenly Thunder! Sword Intent, emerge!"

At the same moment, both unleashed their strongest techniques, aiming straight for the Black Mountain Demon's head. Facing this overwhelming barrage, the latter calmly extended a Nether Ghost Claw, and countless Wrathful Ghosts flew from his body, forcibly blocking Yan Chixia's Sword Formation killing move.

Meanwhile, the Black Mountain Demon's mouth chanted Magic Incantations without pause, using a divine ability refined from the Killing Qi of souls he had tormented for untold ages to forcibly withstand Xiao Han's Thunder Immortal Sword onslaught!

Xiao Han and Yan Chixia were not surprised by this turn of events. If the Black Mountain Demon were so easy to deal with, he wouldn't have been ruling the City of the Dead with impunity for thousands of years without anyone coming to clean him up.

From this, it was clear that those so-called righteous sects were nothing but a pack of cowards who bullied the weak and feared the strong!

If not for their fear of death, they could have joined forces and slain the Black Mountain Demon. But they chose inaction, watching idly and letting him grow stronger—utterly foolish!

What a load of crap about righteous sects; in the end, it all came down to the word "profit."

On their side, though their attacks seemed to inflict no major damage on the Black Mountain Demon, taking the full force of Yan Chixia's and Xiao Han's ultimate moves could hardly leave him unscathed.

The fact that nearly a third of his Killing Qi had been blasted away by the Thunder Immortal Sword proved the Black Mountain Demon was far from comfortable!

Having consumed most of his Zhenyuan, Xiao Han quickly downed an entire bottle of Mana Recovery Pill for himself and Yan Chixia, dissolving the medicine and surging their Zhenyuan back up.

The deafening wails of ghosts and howls of spirits echoed in his ears. What cruel methods, how many innocent mortals had to die, to forge such a despair-ridden technique?

Xiao Han sighed. His pitch-black eyes rapidly shifted into a dark blue, Demonic Eyes!

Without a moment's hesitation, he summoned the Demon Armor, but this time, something seemed different.

The shattered Wrathful Ghosts—their soul energy did not dissipate immediately. Instead, they turned into countless soul particles, surging into Xiao Han's body in a torrent, absorbed by the Demon Armor.

The Demon Armor seemed to respond to the power of those soul particles, relaying their wishes back to Xiao Han, their Master.

Those souls, tormented for ages unknown, burned with rage and hatred... vowing to tear the Black-robed Old Demon on his throne into a thousand pieces!

A flicker of surprise crossed Xiao Han's face. He lowered his gaze, murmuring to himself as if answering someone.

"You want to lend me your power to kill that old demon? Fine, then I'll fulfill your lingering wishes!"

Raising his head again, Xiao Han fixed his gaze on the Black Mountain Demon, erupting with a sky-shaking Killing Qi!

Within that Killing Qi surged the Demon Armor's Demonic Qi, like a Demon God!

This was the first time Xiao Han had fully unleashed the Demon Armor's power—not for any grand reason, but simply to indulge himself.

"Your grudge—I, Xiao Han, take it upon myself.

The Black Mountain Demon will die by my hand, not for anything else, but for these souls tortured to death with no chance of reincarnation.

No matter how strong the Black Mountain Demon is, even if he's strong enough to make one despair, I will defeat him, because I..."

Clang!!!

"With despair, I swing my sword; with the fallen, I forge my armor!"

As the Demon Armor fully encased him, an Azure Blue energy surged up the Crimson Longsword in Xiao Han's hand.

Under the Azure Blue energy's embrace, the sword transformed into a massive blade—four feet long, one foot wide, with a one-foot Sword Hilt, its body covered in golden Lines!!!

Then, Xiao Han erupted with Sword Intent a second time!

Gale Sword Intent! Original Self Sword Intent! Demon Armor's Demonic Qi!

Three forces burst from Xiao Han, extending through the giant sword as a medium into a hundred-meter-long Sword Qi!

Pointing the giant sword at the Black Mountain Demon, Xiao Han's emotionless gaze pierced through the Demon Armor, locking onto his foe.

"Black Mountain Demon, our second round begins now!"

"Good lad! I didn't expect you to unleash power like this!" Yan Chixia exclaimed, both shocked and delighted. Shocked, because he feared Xiao Han might sink too deep into the Demonic Path and lose himself, becoming a demon lord!

Delighted, because with such means, how could the Black Mountain Demon not die?

Feeling the Demonic Qi rapidly sweeping through the entire Yin-Yang Realm, the Black Mountain Demon trembled, roaring hysterically, "Impossible! Which great demon lord of the Demonic Path are you reincarnated from?! Why have I never heard of your existence? Impossible!"

Xiao Han paused at this, his eyes rolling as an idea struck him.

"Heh, I originally intended to kill you, an ant, disguised as a little Taoist Priest, but it seems you saw through me.

Fine! I won't hide it anymore—I'm coming clean. I am the reincarnation of the ancient Demon God, Chiyou!"

"What?!"

At these words, the Black Mountain Demon was so terrified he nearly suffered Soul Annihilation.

As mentioned before, the Demon Armor's power was tied to Xiao Han's strength; that Demonic Qi was just for show.

In reality, Xiao Han had only barely risen to the level of a five-star Dou Grandmaster, on par with Yan Chixia, while the Black Mountain Demon was at least at the Dou Ling level!

But now, intimidated by Xiao Han's superficial Demonic Qi pressure, and startled by the name that suddenly left Xiao Han's lips, the Black Mountain Demon trembled like a quail.

The ancient Demon God, Chiyou?

That is... the Demon Ancestor!!!

I'm going to die! I'm absolutely going to die!

Black Mountain Demon's face was full of despair. He had been a Great Demon his whole life, throwing his weight around, never expecting to run into such a tough nut today.

Flee! Right! Flee back to the City of the Dead. Even the Demon God Chiyou himself couldn't touch him there!

With that thought, Black Mountain Demon didn't hesitate. He transformed into a puff of black smoke, ready to take flight and escape.

Meanwhile, Yan Chixia, flying on his sword, knew Xiao Han inside and out. He quickly closed in on the demonic-qi-shrouded Xiao Han and said with a sly grin, "You're full of tricks, using Chiyou to fool the Black Mountain Old Ghost."

"Why talk about that now? The Black Mountain Demon's Fighting Spirit is completely shattered. We can just— Damn! He's about to bolt! Hurry and suppress him with the Buddhist Scriptures!"

As he spoke, Xiao Han fumbled to pull the Immovable King Mantra from his Storage Ring, while Yan Chixia took out the Diamond Sutra.

Worried that the Demonic Qi might weaken the power of the Diamond Sutra and the Immovable King Mantra, Xiao Han quickly withdrew all his Demonic Qi back into his Demon Armor.

Bathed in the Buddha light of the two great Buddhist Scriptures, the Black Mountain Demon was frozen in place. The power of the Wrathful Ghosts all over his body was suppressed in that instant!

This was all thanks to Xiao Han's Demonic Qi, which had shattered the Black Mountain Demon's Fighting Spirit, making it this easy to pin him down.

"It's over... Heaven and Earth Have No Limits, Borrowing the Law of Heaven and Earth!

Demon Sword, Slash!!!"

With a faint sigh, Xiao Han looked at the bones scattered across the ground. He hurled his giant sword, Demonic Flame clinging to the Sword Body, and using the Sword Control Technique, drove it straight through the Black Mountain Demon's Crown of the Head!

Boom!!!

Killed by Xiao Han's giant sword in a single blow, countless Wrathful Ghosts flew out from within the Black Mountain Demon's body.

"Don't let those Wrathful Ghosts escape! If even one slips out, the entire human world will know no peace! Join forces with me, and we'll send them all to rebirth together!"

Yan Chixia was prepared. He pulled a Sword Case from behind his back, and countless flying swords shot out, forming an entire Sword Formation that surrounded the Black Mountain Demon's corpse!

"Heaven and Earth Have No Limits, Borrowing the Law of Heaven and Earth! Wind and Fire Divine Soldiers Obey the Law! Sword Formation, Go!"

While Yan Chixia trapped the thousands of resentful spirits, Xiao Han's Dou Qi strength surged by four minor realms on the spot, and all his expended energy instantly refilled the moment he broke through!

Feeling the task reward from killing the Black Mountain Demon, Xiao Han was secretly pleased.

"Nine Star Dou Master! Once I go back and train hard for a while, I should be able to reach Dou Grandmaster, which is the Building-Busting Level!"

"Hey! You brat, what are you spacing out for over there! Get over here and help me chant the Rebirth Mantra to send them off!" Seeing Xiao Han "afk" while hovering beside him, Yan Chixia couldn't help but curse. He was already straining himself to confine the Wrathful Ghosts that the Black Mountain Demon had spent thousands of years refining, and here Xiao Han was, just watching the show.

"Uh... coming, coming!"

Flying quickly to Yan Chixia's side, Xiao Han waved his hand. The Diamond Sutra and Immovable King Mantra in the sky leaned against Yan Chixia's peerless Sword Formation, further suppressing the endlessly howling resentful spirits.

With the two Buddhist treasures lending a hand, Yan Chixia breathed a sigh of relief. Together with Xiao Han, he chanted the Rebirth Mantra to purify these resentful spirits and send them into reincarnation.

On the other side, with the Black Mountain Demon no longer holding the fort, the Yin-Yang Realm rapidly vanished. Under the blazing sunlight of high noon, countless ghost soldiers and Ghost Generals that hadn't had time to be killed turned to ash on the spot.

From that day forward, the lineage of the Black Mountain Demon was officially erased from this world!
