Sword-Body Unity, Slaying Demons and Eliminating Devils
Moreover, Chen Nianzhi sensed that in this environment, the Netherworld Demon Baleful Aura was constantly trying to invade their meridians. If the battle dragged on for too long, the Sha Qi might enter their bodies, and their internal Law Power would be in danger of being contaminated.
In this situation, Foundation Establishment cultivator's True Essence would be corrupted within an hour, Purple Mansion cultivator could only last about three hours, and Golden Core True Person would probably be corrupted within a few days.
Once True Essence Law Power are contaminated, it becomes a huge problem. The longer this Netherworld Demon Baleful Aura remains contaminated, the more difficult it is to remove, and it may even lead to demonic possession.
If a Foundation Establishment cultivator stayed here for three hours, it would probably take him sixty years to exorcise the Demon Baleful Intent.
Zhang True Person also sensed something was wrong. With a grave expression, he shouted, "Everyone, we must finish this quickly. Regardless of the outcome, we must be out within three hours!"
The nearly one thousand Foundation Establishment cultivators present all wore bitter expressions upon hearing this. Staying here for three hours would likely greatly affect their future Dao Path.
Seeing their expressions change slightly, Jiang Linglong frowned, feeling the need to boost their morale. So she said, "Foundation Establishment cultivators can leave after fighting here for two hours or accumulating a thousand merit points."
The two elders quickly clarified the rules in just a few words, and all the Foundation Establishment cultivators present breathed a sigh of relief.
Earning a thousand merit points is difficult, but not impossible. Simply killing one Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivator or a hundred Qi Refining Demonic Cultivator will suffice.
Even if that's not possible, staying for two hours, though dangerous, would still allow us to eradicate the Demon Baleful Intent within twenty years.
Having quickly stabilized the morale of the troops, Jiang Linglong continued, "The demons only have three Golden Core realm; their strength is no match for ours. They can only fight against us by relying on the power of the Demon Spring."
"Let's rush into the Demon Spring and utterly crush the Devil Cultivator in one fell swoop."
This Demon Cave a maze of interconnected passages, with three routes leading to the Demon Spring.
Time was of the essence. In order to kill the Devil Cultivator as effectively as possible and to prevent Devil Cultivator from escaping and wasting time in the Demon Cave, the elders split into three groups, each leading several hundred cultivators to fight their way through.
Among the group, Jiang Linglong and Lingji Fairy traveled together, leading the cultivators of the Heavenly Ruins Alliance and Purple Abyss Sect to the far left passage.
Old Ancestor Zhang was the strongest, and with the Firmament Sword in hand, he led the Firmament Sword Sect's forces to attack from the middle.
Taicang True Person, together with Taiqing True Person, led the cultivators of the Azuregreen Immortal Sect to attack from the right flank.
All three forces are extremely powerful. Even if the three Old Devil of the Demon Cave attack with all their might, they will not be in danger of being defeated in a short time.
If one of the forces manages to break through to the core of the Demon Cave, the Demon Spring, and suppress it with a supreme Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure, the Devil Cultivator will surely be defeated in this battle.
Because that Nether Spring is the source of Demon Baleful Intent in the Demon Cave, as long as it is suppressed for a time, the Devil Cultivator ' strength will not be amplified by the Demon Baleful Intent energy.
When everyone recovers to their peak strength, Zhang True Person will be able to unleash the Firmament Sword to kill the Golden Core realm Old Devil.
Getting back to the main point, Jiang Linglong led the charge, Heavenly Ruins Immortal-Slaying Sword, which directly slashed and killed one Devil Cultivator after another in the void.
Those Qi Refining realm Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivator were no match for Golden Core True Person; they could only frantically flee for their lives, taking advantage of the terrain.
Chen Nianzhi and Border Province Purple Mansion followed closely behind. The Li Huo Gui Xu Sword was originally Pure Yang Immortal Sword Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword sword, and its power had greatly increased after advancing to the Tier 4.
He Sword-Body Unity, transforming into a sword aura that roared out, carrying Lihuo flames and clearing a path. Along the way, both Qi Refining Demonic Cultivator and Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivator were instantly killed.
The army attacked for a quarter of an hour, penetrating hundreds of miles into the Demon Cave, before finally encountering the resistance of the Devil Cultivator army.
Clearly, the Golden Core realm Old Devil wouldn't just stand by and watch them charge into the Demon Spring; they would use the complex terrain of the Demon Cave to buy them time.
Yan Old Devil and the others were well aware that if they could delay for more than three hours, the Foundation Establishment cultivators would have to retreat, and the Purple Mansion cultivators would also find it difficult to hold out for long.
At that point, with only a few Golden Core realm cultivators, facing the unfavorable environment and the Demon Cave's resources, plus the siege of tens of thousands of Devil Cultivator, they would probably have no choice but to retreat.
"Oh no, it's the Demon Cave Master!"
Chen Nianzhi looked at the cultivator blocking her way and couldn't help but slightly tighten her expression.
The Demon Cave Master cultivation level as high as the Golden Core Seventh Layer, and the strength he displayed within the Demon Cave was even comparable to that of a cultivator at the Golden Core Eighth Layer.
At this moment, he led dozens of the Purple Mansion cultivators to block the way, clearly intending to defeat Jiang Linglong's forces.
Be careful.
Jiang Linglong whispered something, then unleashed the Heavenly Ruins Immortal-Slaying Sword and attacked. Lingji Fairy followed closely behind, joining forces to besiege the Demon Cave Master.
Chen Nianzhi felt somewhat worried, but understood that she couldn't interfere in battles involving late Golden Core stage cultivators.
With his current cultivation level and two Tier 4 Magical Treasure, his strength is barely comparable to most of Golden Core realm cultivator. He could easily perish if he is not careful when facing late Golden Core stage cultivator.
Fortunately, Jiang Linglong recently broke through to the Third Golden Core Layer, and her Law Power is now comparable to that of a cultivator at the sixth Golden Core tier. In addition, with the Azure Sun Demon-Suppressing Pagoda and the Vast-Heaven Mirror in hand, she should be able to deal with the Demon Cave Master.
Suppressing the thought, Chen Nianzhi exchanged glances with Xu Ganyang and the others beside her, a strange smile flashing in their eyes.
The Demon Cave Master thought they were the weakest, but little did he know that their team was actually three times stronger.
The Heavenly Ruins Alliance has gained three new False Core realm cultivators, and Chen Nianzhi and the Old Clan Leader are also quite powerful. The Purple Abyss Sect also has one False Core realm cultivator.
The combined strength of the six False Core realm cultivators was barely enough to contend with one or two early Golden Core stage cultivators.
Chen Nianzhi took the lead, charging out with the others and engaging in a fierce battle with the massive number of Devil Cultivator cultivators ahead.
As soon as the battle began, the Devil Cultivator ' momentum faltered. Chen Nianzhi, with his Sword-Body Unity as one, pierced through the formidable enemy in front of him, Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword, he slashed down, instantly killing more than a dozen Foundation Establishment Devil Cultivator.
"Oh no, it's Sword-Body Unity."
"He's a cultivator who practices Pure Yang Cultivation Method."
Several Devil Cultivator from the Purple Mansion were horrified. The newcomer possessed Tier 4 immortal sword, and it was the Pure Yang Immortal Sword, which was the most effective weapon against Devil Cultivator. This made them extremely wary.
The leader, a Purple Mansion Late Stage Devil Cultivator cultivator, stepped forward with a solemn expression and shouted, "This person is not Golden Core realm cultivator; even with a Tier 4 immortal sword, he cannot sustain this for long!"
"Rather than letting him slaughter us, we should take advantage of his isolated advance and join forces to exhaust the power of the immortal sword to surround and kill him."
A group of Devil Cultivator from the Purple Mansion agreed with this assessment and immediately led a large number of Devil Cultivator to surround them.
Only one person remained unmoved and quietly took half a step back; this person was none other than Hong Old Devil.
The Sword-Body Unity; one sees only the immortal sword, not the person. But as the saying goes, a person's name is like the shadow of a tree.
The Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword was renowned Chu Kingdom. Before advancing to the Tier 4, it was already a top-tier Higher Vehicle sword among the top ten divine weapons. Although Hong Old Devil had never directly fought Chen Nianzhi, he recognized the sword as if he were seeing the person.
