Decisive in Killing, Demon Cultivators Tremble! Golden Core Battle, Heaven and Earth Change Color!

At this moment, Elder Liu Mu and Liu Ruyan's group had already joined battle with the Demon Sect members.

"Rumble!"

"Bang! Bang..."

Streams of multicolored spiritual essence streaked through the air, and explosions rang out without cease.

Chen Changqing held his breath and focused, preparing to control his sword into battle.

But just then, eerie black mist suddenly surged in from all directions.

When the black mist dispersed, figure after figure emerged.

A dark mass of them, numbering several dozen!

Clearly, Green Creek Village held more Demon Sect members than the ones they had seen earlier.

Upon seeing Liu Mu and the others, the leading Demon Sect member gave a cold snort and said sinisterly:

"Kill every last one of these hypocrites from the righteous path!"

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

At his command, dozens of figures shot straight forward.

In an instant, demonic qi roiled, and cries of slaughter shook the heavens!

Chen Changqing's gaze sharpened at the sight.

The Shadow-Bearing Sword let out a series of resonant hums.

"Looks like today will be a bloody battle."

He muttered softly, then gave it no further thought. Turning into a streak of light, he charged straight at a Demon Sect cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

"Hm?"

Seeing Chen Changqing charge at him, the demonic cultivator let out a savage grin and slashed out with the Blood Blade in his hand, sending a scarlet blade light flying.

"A mere fifth level of Qi Refining dares to seek death!"

"Clang!"

Chen Changqing's expression did not change. With a thought, the Shadow-Bearing Sword shot straight out to meet the attack.

"Bang!"

Blade and sword collided, scattering sparks in every direction!

The next moment, Chen Changqing's figure flashed. He pushed the Sword Control Technique to its limit, and the Shadow-Bearing Sword flew beneath his feet.

Once he steadied himself, he pressed two fingers together and shouted softly:

"Go!"

The Shadow-Bearing Sword flashed out, its sword light weaving like a swimming dragon. It actually forced the demonic cultivator back step after step.

"What?"

"A brat at the fifth level of Qi Refining can actually force me into nothing but defense?"

Even as he fought back, the demonic cultivator was deeply shaken.

He had originally thought Chen Changqing was a soft persimmon.

With his eighth level Qi Refining cultivation, wouldn't killing him have been as easy as turning over his hand?

Yet the moment they exchanged blows, he discovered that Chen Changqing was nowhere near as weak as he had imagined.

While the demonic cultivator was distracted, Chen Changqing seized the opportunity and caught one of his openings.

With a flash, he was already right before the demonic cultivator.

"Thunder Fist!"

The next moment, Chen Changqing swung his hand and drove a punch down.

"Boom!"

Lightning burst from his right fist, its force like a surging flood!

The demonic cultivator's pupils contracted violently.

Before he could react, Chen Changqing's fist had already slammed into his chest.

"Pfft!"

The demonic cultivator spat out a mouthful of black blood, his eyes wide with disbelief.

Looking down, he saw that Chen Changqing's punch had pierced straight through his chest, blood gushing out.

"No..."

His eyes filled with shock and horror. Before he could finish speaking, he toppled into a pool of blood, his life extinguished.

Chen Changqing looked at the fallen corpse, a trace of discomfort stirring in his heart.

After all, this was his first time killing someone.

"These Demon Sect members treat human lives as grass."

"Even if they die, they brought it upon themselves."

After thinking it over briefly, Chen Changqing quickly suppressed that sliver of discomfort in his heart.

Besides, he knew that in this world, the weak were prey to the strong.

If he did not kill others, others would come to kill him.

Just as Chen Changqing was lost in thought, a shout suddenly came from nearby:

"Junior Brother Chen, what are you doing?"

"In a battle of life and death, you're actually spacing out?"

Liu Ruyan's cool voice reached him.

Hearing that, Chen Changqing quickly came back to his senses and said somewhat awkwardly:

"Thank you for the reminder, Senior Sister Liu!"

Liu Ruyan cast Chen Changqing a cold glance. She said nothing more and continued controlling her sword toward the demonic cultivators.

Chen Changqing gathered his thoughts and was about to make another move.

At that moment, a system notification suddenly sounded in his mind:

[Ding!]

[You have killed a living being. AFK Points +1.]

"AFK Points?"

Chen Changqing froze, caught completely off guard by the system's sudden notification.

Very soon, the system's explanation came:

[AFK Points can shorten AFK time.]

"It can do that?"

Chen Changqing's eyes lit up!

AFK cultivation was already cheating, and now it could actually be accelerated?

"These demonic cultivators... they're practically little bundles of experience!"

In an instant, the way Chen Changqing looked at the surrounding demonic cultivators changed completely.

He had not expected that killing living beings could earn these so-called AFK Points.

And these AFK Points could shorten AFK time.

"Then don't blame me!"

After coming back to himself, battle intent surged in Chen Changqing's eyes. Looking at the demonic cultivators around him, his killing intent soared!

"Whoosh!!"

The next moment, he did not hesitate. He controlled his sword forward, his body swift as lightning.

Wherever the Shadow-Bearing Sword passed, demonic cultivators fell one after another.

Some had their throats sealed with a single sword strike!

Some had their heads blown apart by a single punch!

His strikes were ruthless, clean, and decisive, without the slightest dragging of mud or water!

In a short time, several Demon Sect members died miserably at Chen Changqing's hands.

At the same time, Liu Ruyan and the others, who were fighting other demonic cultivators, were all stunned by the sight.

"What?"

"What is going on with Chen Changqing?"

"His attacks are truly fast, precise, and ruthless!"

"Why do I feel like Junior Brother Chen is more demonic than these Demon Sect members?"

"..."

At the same time, seeing Chen Changqing slaughter so decisively, the demonic cultivators actually retreated in terror, intimidated by his aura.

"Hm?"

Liu Ruyan saw this, and her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as she thought in shock:

So decisive in killing... is he really only an outer disciple?

At the fifth level of Qi Refining, he can actually kill demonstric cultivators at the seventh or eighth level so easily?

The more she thought about it, the more shocked Liu Ruyan became, and the less she could see through Chen Changqing.

"Rumble!"

While Liu Ruyan and the others dealt with the Demon Sect disciples in the Qi Refining realm,

Elder Liu Mu was facing off against a Golden Core demonic cultivator.

The moment this Golden Core demonic cultivator appeared, the sky abruptly darkened and thunder exploded!

Elder Liu Mu stood in the air, lightning coiling around his body like a thunder god descending into the world.

As they faced each other, the Golden Core demonic cultivator in blood-red robes let out a shrill, eerie laugh.

"Mount Shu's ox-nosed priest, today I'll let you taste my power!"

Hearing this, Elder Liu Mu snorted coldly.

"Hmph!"

"Daring Demon Sect scum, you dare slaughter mortals so wantonly? You're simply courting death!"

As he shouted angrily, Elder Liu Mu rapidly formed hand seals. With a pointed finger, winds rose and clouds surged.

"Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, descend!"

"Crack!"

In an instant, amidst the stirring clouds high above the nine heavens, a bolt of lightning crashed straight down.

The Golden Core demonic cultivator sneered coldly. The bloody Baleful Intent around his body transformed into a giant palm and met the lightning head-on!

"Boom!!"

In less than a moment, the divine thunder struck the giant palm of bloody Baleful Intent.

A deafening roar echoed through the air.

Immediately afterward, waves of force churned through the sky, and the earth cracked apart!

Elsewhere, Chen Changqing and the others had already dealt with the demonic cultivators in the Qi Refining realm and all turned their attention toward Elder Liu Mu.

They happened to witness the clash between Liu Mu and the Golden Core demonic cultivator.

Two Golden Core powerhouses had exchanged blows!

Even heaven and earth changed color!
