Sword Scars on the Demon Beast Corpses; the Awe of the Bloodline Lineages
With Kong Wenxuan leading the charge with illusions and sword formations, he was met with the terrifying destructive power of his uncle Kong Yushuo, the clan leader, and the second elder, who followed closely behind to fill in any gaps and eliminate any stragglers.
The army attacking the "eastern peak" advanced smoothly. The large number of Demon Beast and birds charging down from the peak could hardly stop them, or even slow down their progress.
The Ya Household cultivators, Fire Crow Dao Soldiers, and the group of cultivators who followed the Ya Household didn't need to make a move at all. They only needed to follow behind the four members of the Kong Household to rush up the mountain.
The combat power and lethality displayed by the four members of the Kong Household, especially Kong Wenxuan, not only amazed the cultivators of the Ya Household, but also left the many bloodline cultivators who had followed the Ya Household dumbfounded and terrified.
In particular, many of them were originally ordinary Bloodline Lineage in "Cuckoo County". Like the Kong Household, they were all servant Lineage of the original "Cuckoo" Du Household, and they knew a lot about the "Peacock" Kong Household, which was also a servant Lineage.
Some of them even knew or were familiar with the clan leader Kong Changgeng, and some had even served alongside their uncle Kong Yushuo, at "Demon-Suppressing Pass," working together to clear out Demon Beast, collect resources, and spiritual objects in the southern mountains.
Such as the "Shrike" (or "Shrike"), a monk from the Lao Household.
But at this moment, these Bloodline Lineage cultivators who were originally on the same level as the Kong Household and were quite familiar with them were extremely shocked, even terrified, when they saw the terrifying combat power of the four members of the Kong Household and the destructive power of Kong Wenxuan's invincible sword formation and illusion techniques.
Shrike, a cultivator from the Lao Household known as "Lao Zerui," was one of the people who attacked and annihilated the "Gray Wolf" Lang Household family, a wild Bloodline Lineage in the mountains outside the pass, along with Kong Yushuo, Kong Wenxuan, and others. He was even one of the organizers of the annihilation of the Lang Lineage's territory.
He had always been rather arrogant. Even though he knew that the Kong Household had successfully Star Inlaying three years ago and become a "Ninth-Grade True Spirit" Lineage, he felt shocked and envious, but not much awe.
After all, the Lao Household and the Kong Household both lived in Cuckoo County and had been servant Lineage of the Du Household for over a hundred years. He had also served in and around the "Demon-Suppressing Pass" with Kong Yushuo and others for many years, and his understanding and perception of the Kong Household had long been prejudiced.
Even if the Kong Household Star Inlaying to succeed in becoming Ninth-Grade True Spirit Lineage by chance, in his and his old family's hearts, the Kong Household would still be that Bloodline Lineage that was good at illusions but had limited combat power and lethality.
Such prejudices are difficult to change overnight.
This is not only the case with the Lao Household, but also with many other Bloodline Lineage in Cuckoo County.
At this moment, Lao Zerui and the Lao Household cultivators, like many other servant Lineage cultivators of the Ya Household, followed behind the Ya Household cultivators. They saw the sword formation of the front Kong Wenxuan killing wildly, and saw the crimson flying sword that Kong Yushuo summoned, moving back and forth at supersonic speed, and no Demon Beast or demon bird could withstand it.
These things undoubtedly shocked and terrified him. His preconceived notions and prejudices about the Kong Household were shattered by the terrifying power of these sword lights.
At this moment, he was following behind the "Fire Crow Dao Soldiers" of the Ya Household, looking down at the large number of Demon Beast and bird corpses scattered on the ground, cut in half or even into several pieces, with blood flowing around and gathering like a stream.
Most of the demonic Demon Beast and birds that were cut in half or into pieces were killed by Kong Wenxuan's sword formation, while a small number were killed by the crimson flying swords summoned by Kong Yushuo.
The group of followers who were following the Ya Household cultivators and Dao soldiers did not pick up or collect any materials. They simply watched the blood that was already flowing, being wasted, and seeping into the ground go to waste without anyone taking any action to clean it up.
This is mainly because, according to the plan agreed upon before the attack, during the attack on the "eastern peak," the spoils of war from the Demon Beast and birds killed by each family belong to that family, and other people or Lineage are not allowed to steal them.
These were the rules established by the two True Spirit Lineage, the Ya Household and the Kong Household, and these servant Lineage naturally dared not disobey them.
Of course, despite this, there were nearly a thousand other cultivators from various servant Lineage who came with the Ya Household. Among them were not only servant Lineage from the original "Cuckoo County", but also many servant Lineage cultivators from "Fire Crow County".
These servant Lineage from "Fire Crow County," relying on being Ya Household and prestigious servant cultivator Lineage, often looked down on these servant cultivator Lineage from the original "Cuckoo County."
Among them were naturally some arrogant and greedy individuals who looked down on the Kong Household, a True Spirit Lineage that had just advanced to the Ninth-Grade True Spirit and didn't even have its own territory.
Therefore, some cultivators deliberately lagged behind, hoping to secretly pocket the corpse of a slain Second Tier Demon Beast.
As a result, just as the other party was stealing the corpse of the Second Tier Demon Beast, he was injured by the Sword Qi and sword intent that erupted from the sword marks left on the corpse.
It should be noted that the one who wanted to steal the corpse of the Second Tier Demon Beast was a Foundation Establishment cultivator from a servant cultivation Lineage in "Fire Crow County". Theoretically speaking, he was at the same level as Kong Wenxuan, Kong Yushuo, and others, or even slightly higher.
As a result, they were all injured by a wisp of extremely sharp and lethal golden Sword Qi and sword intent that erupted from the sword marks remaining on the corpse of the Second Tier Demon Beast, and one of them almost had an arm severed.
Fortunately, the opponent activated a defensive Spirit Artifact at the last moment to defend himself, and then quickly threw down the Second Tier Demon Beast corpse he had secretly picked up, thus saving his arm.
Even so, the defensive Spirit Artifact he hastily activated was shattered by the burst of golden Sword Qi and sharpness, and he himself was severely injured and unable to participate in the subsequent battle. He had no choice but to hurriedly flee back down the mountain to take pills to heal his wounds.
Of course, the other party might have abandoned the subsequent battle and fled down the mountain because their theft was exposed, and they were also injured by the Sword Qi and sword intent remaining on the Demon Beast's corpse. They felt too ashamed and had no choice but to leave the group and escape back down the mountain.
Regardless, the actions of this Foundation Establishment cultivator served as a valuable lesson for everyone, making them realize the danger lurking in the corpses of the slain Demon Beast and birds, and dispelling the ulterior motives of many.
As for cultivators and Bloodline Lineage like Lao Zerui who were quite familiar with the Kong Household, their understanding of the Kong Household was naturally completely overturned, and they gained a lot of awe.
Reverence for the "True Spirit Lineage".
Lili!
Boom! Boom! Rumble...
Meanwhile, Kong Wenxuan had led his team to the mountainside of the "eastern peak," where more and more Demon Beast and birds were attacking from all sides.
The clear chirping of the Peacock and the booming of the Sword Qi Thunderclap were becoming increasingly rapid and frequent, with their destructive power constantly increasing.
Even so, as more and more Demon Beast and birds attacked from all sides, it became increasingly difficult to kill all the attacking Demon Beast and birds, whether it was Kong Wenxuan's "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation" and "Five-Colored Peacock" illusion, or Kong Yushuo, the clan leader and others' efforts to fill in the gaps.
More and more Demon Beast and birds have begun to break through the Kong Household's attempts to suppress them.
Lao Zerui and other cultivators from various Bloodline Lineage who had followed the Ya Household also began fighting against the Demon Beast and birds that had broken through the defenses, under the Ya Household's orders.
