Explosive Potential Depends on the Person; Evil Must Be Uprooted

To outsiders, Chu Tianshu's Phoenix Nirvana Sword Strike appeared to be an extremely brief event.

However, the Monk Qingsheng had been roaming the sky, seemingly trying to wear Chu Tianshu down, and the two were evenly matched in their auras.

His sudden defeat and death immediately disrupted the balance of their auras.

This immediately made Xiao Zhenru and the others realize something.

"Vajra Dragon-Riding Mind Technique!"

Suddenly, a three-zhang-long golden dragon flew up from beneath Xiao Zhenru's feet, carrying his entire body and flying to the side.

This is no longer the demonic palm technique he has switched to in the last two years, but rather the Buddhist technique he has been diligently practicing in the past.

Since switching to the Demonic Dao, he has felt that with his current power and attributes, there are some obstacles in using his previous techniques.

But today's battle made him realize the vastness of the changes in the Demonic Dao path, which even Buddhism is willing to embrace.

At this time, Hou Tianyuan Monk Qingsheng had both died.

Especially considering the latter's foundation and reputation, his death should have caused a great shock to people's hearts and minds.

Surprisingly, Xiao Zhenru felt little fear. Instead, she displayed a transformed quality in her previous skills.

Their feud with Chu Tianshu had become a blood feud. Even if they escaped today, they would most likely have no choice but to abandon their families and go into hiding.

But if one cannot live as the head of the Xiao Clan family and the leading figure among the elites of the Southern Dynasty, then what is the point of living?

If you're not dead yet, fight on.

The crimson rainbow missed Xiao Zhenru and flew straight to Xiao Liang's side, where it revealed its form.

The Sword Soul flickered, and in an instant, the Sword Qi split apart, all of it attacking Xiao Liang!

Press on 23 acupoints on the right side of Xiao Liang's body.

The sword transformed into twenty-three Sword Qi, so it naturally wouldn't have much killing power anymore.

Chu Tianshu wielded his sword with needle-like precision as he treated Xiao Liang's injuries.

The wound on Xiao Liang's finger was actually just a symptom.

The key point is that the meridians on half of his body were damaged because he used four different techniques in a single instant.

As Chu Tianshu's martial arts level improved, his medical skills became increasingly specialized. He didn't make much progress in drawing talismans, but he had reached a level of unparalleled skill in treating injuries to meridians and the like.

Xiao Liang felt his meridians temporarily unblocked and stabilized after being stabbed by him.

"Ha ha ha ha!!"

Xiao Liang laughed four times, having already launched forty sword attacks.

These forty sword strikes seem to lack any particular method; they are simply about speed.

But as soon Wubei saw it, he thought of a spider.

Upon seeing it, Dugu Jue felt as if he were facing an unpredictable cloud of smoke.

For a moment, both of them were forced back by the swift sword.

A dragon's roar echoed in the sky.

Xiao Zhenru kicked out with her foot, leaving herself in mid-air, while the golden dragon flew down and crashed down.

Chu Tianshu turned his head and noticed a subtle change in Xiao Zhenru's aura.

He knew that the Demonic Dao path was prone to extremes and might suddenly unleash its potential while fighting, but his main concern was still Monk Qingsheng.

If that old man were to encounter danger and were to unleash another attack, Chu Tianshu truly had no confidence in defeating him.

Therefore, he forced Bronze Longevity Immortal to ignore the previous battles and waited until the most crucial moment before launching a surprise attack.

Then, the spirit of the man and the Weapon Soul unite, and the opponent is killed with the strongest move at the moment.

This can actually be considered a victory for intelligence warfare.

And Xiao Zhenru...

Chu Tianshu swept his Sword Soul across his hand, blocking the dragon's head, and his whole body seemed to be slammed into the ground.

But now he is a spirit, and he can walk through the ground whenever he wants.

The golden dragon was also formed from Mind Power and followed the others underground.

But from somewhere underground, out of sight, came a mournful cry.

A new golden dragon has sprung up beneath Xiao Zhenru's feet and is flying toward Chu Tianshu's physical body.

Chu Tianshu's physical body, after losing its soul, fell from the sky to the ground, yet it was not damaged.

It was as if even without a soul, as long as life remained, the body's muscles and bones would respond to the stimulus, maintaining the standing posture, only with the two lower legs sinking into the ground.

Suddenly, his soul returned to his body.

Chu Tianshu raised his eyelids, the Sword Soul in his hand returned to its sheath, and he drew his sword again.

The Weapon Soul and the sword are united as one.

This time, he used the same technique as when drawing a sword.

The more brilliant the light, the brighter the blade, and the more difficult it is to discern the ethereal blade energy emanating from it.

Xiao Zhenru sensed it instantly, clapped her hands together, and shattered the blade energy slashing from her right front. Suddenly, she felt an unbearable pain in her palms.

He still had a knife mark on his hand from the Wood-Burning Saber Technique, which was still painful, but he didn't care.

At this moment, the pain seemed to be magnified tenfold, a hundredfold.

"Ah! What kind of sorcery is this?!"

Xiao Zhenru's pupils trembled with pain, her facial features contorted, and the golden dragon beneath her feet faded.

A black blade of energy flashed on his forehead.

Xiao Zhenru suddenly lowered his head, but the blade still sliced through his scalp and tore through his hair.

The renewed, excruciating pain made his eyes widen in horror, the golden dragon completely disintegrated, and his body plummeted to the ground.

Chu Tianshu unleashed twelve strikes in quick succession.

The Blade of Remembrance first cleaves downwards vertically, then slashes upwards in reverse.

Six groups, a total of twelve rounds of sword energy, flashed like black lightning and thunder, passing through Xiao Zhenru's body one after another.

Upon landing, his physical body shattered first, and his soul was also neatly sliced apart and collapsed.

Given Monk Qingsheng, Chu Tianshu needs to carefully plan to prevent an outbreak.

As for Xiao Zhenru... even if she unleashed her potential, she would still die!

"Another one died! Another one died!!"

Wubei caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye, and his heart skipped a beat.

Suddenly, his gaze met Chu Tianshu's eyes.

The color of the pupils and sclera in those eyes remained unchanged, but the entire pupil seemed to radiate a bluish light, gradually turning red.

The light was faint, yet it made it Wubei for Wu Bei, whose heart had just begun to falter, to look away.

By the time he realized something was wrong, those eyes were already inches away.

Chu Tianshu's blade was already aimed at his waist.

Wubei might have had a chance to block or dodge, but another sword was aimed at his neck.

The swords and sabers moved in opposite directions, one in front and one behind, one high and one low.

The Wubei trembled as his head and waist were severed, and two green, glowing blood lines belonging to Evil Spirit appeared on his body.

Chu Tianshu delivered the final blow, smashing the Evil Spirit's head into a cloud of green mist.

That was close!

There was nothing that could be done about Hou Tianyuan before.

But just now, this guy almost got his kill stolen too.

Chu Tianshu turned his head to look.

Xiao Liang was already staring intently at Dugu Jue.

Dugu Jue looked left and right, his expression turning helpless.

"If Fa Wendao and the others had managed to escape back then, today, we should be eight of us joining forces to fight the two of you!"

Xiao Liang sneered, "Nonsense, if Old Huang hadn't disappeared, the three of us would have killed all five of you."

Chu Tianshu: "..."

Chu Tianshu also had something to say.

If Fellow Daoist Tree can stay away from the valley for a long time, or if Fellow Daoist Lu has already successfully broken through...

So today it's five against five.

We also have an extra Weapon Soul here.

But there's no point in spouting such nonsense now; let's focus on killing the enemy first!

Chu Tianshu his long sword and dashed out.

Dugu Jue's body was filled with demonic energy, and he raised his hands to the sky.

The Mind Power eagles that had previously bombed the town, leaving it in ruins, have all reappeared and taken flight.

Hundreds of eagles circled and cried out over this battlefield.

Amidst the swirling shadows, scattering feathers, and shifting light and shadow, the wondrous applications of various Demonic Dao True Qi are revealed.

But even with only one Dugu Jue remaining, he only lasted five rounds before exploding into a pool of blood amidst the intertwined figures of swordsmen and saber-wielders.

The black eagle scattered in fright, shedding its feathers, and flew higher and higher, its feathers fading with each passing moment.

Bite!

Xiao Liang tapped the ground with his sword, slowly sat down, and took several breaths.

"Hey, I thought the two of us would be lucky to kill two monks, how come we actually killed all five?"

Xiao Liang pondered for a moment, "But it seems there's only one who died completely at my hands."

Chu Tianshu said, "It's alright, we'll be taking down five of them together anyway."

He slowly breathed for a moment, shook off the bloodstains from the blade, making it shine like new, and then sheathed it.

"Let's go to Celebration of the Sage Temple before the news gets out."

"If the old monk left behind any notes, we must keep them safe and prevent anyone from getting them out and causing trouble."

Xiao Liang listened to these words and looked at Chu Tianshu helplessly.

On this guy's chest, there was a wound that had just been stitched up with hair; the Zongheng stitches were quite frightening to look at.

How come he doesn't look tired at all now?

"Are you even human?"

Chu Tianshu: "What?"

"I say, you're truly a kind person!"
