Solar Eclipse Shadow King

"Looks like something really did happen."

At the location of the Grand Gate Sword Stele, the members of the Mysterious Peak Sect and the Divine Sword Sect silently watched the entrance.

The enormous sword monument resembled an ancient sword thrust upside down into the ground, its entire body shimmering with a faint silver light, its surface covered with densely packed ancient runes.

At this moment, the sword monument is enduring an unprecedented impact.

One wave after another of Demonic Qi surged from the depths of the entrance, crashing against the sword monument like black waves, and then vanished into thin air three zhang away from the monument, leaving no trace.

But the Demonic Qi surged like waves, one after another, as if some Devil Creature was driving it from behind, relentlessly assaulting this final barrier.

"Uncle-Master, since you and Senior Brother Lu are guarding the Sword Stele, should I go inside and investigate? In case something happens, we can rescue Senior Brother Wei and Junior Brother Hu."

Jiang Xueheng spoke with concern.

She was dressed in a plain white Daoist robe, with a slender longsword hanging at her waist. Her brows and eyes held a hint of heroism, but at this moment, she could not hide her worry.

Yan Qing hesitated for a moment, his gaze lingering on the sword monument impacted by Demonic Qi for a brief instant, before finally nodding.

Jiang Xueheng nodded and said no more. She directly selected several disciples to go with her into the seal to investigate. Among these disciples was Mei Yue, who had just joined the sect.

She was a girl who looked no more than fourteen or fifteen years old. She was slender, with delicate features, but her eyes were exceptionally bright, revealing a composure beyond her years.

She followed behind Jiang Xueheng without asking any questions, only silently gripping the short sword in her hand.

"Senior brother, let's go too!" Jiang Mingshan said without hesitation upon seeing this.

Lu Shuichan glanced at the two of them, and nodded calmly with his Wu Hun.

" At the Refining Essence into Qi level, there shouldn't be anyone who can defeat me."

Lu Shuichan looked the other person up and down a few times, then suddenly smiled, "With the way you've cultivated your physical body, you'd look like some kind of monster."

The two leaders agreed, and the two groups immediately entered the sealed area.

They were immediately shocked by the surging, colliding Void Devil Field inside the demon cave.

Jiang Xueheng's expression changed slightly. She had cultivated for many years and had seen many demonic methods, but she had never seen such a dense and chaotic gathering of Void Devil Field in one place.

The clashes between those magical arenas were like countless wild beasts fighting in a cage, constantly generating new changes and releasing destructive power that threatened her at every moment.

"I'm using the Light-Splitting Shadow-Forming Sword. This trip is only to find my two senior brothers, not to exorcise demons."

As soon as he finished speaking, the disciples of the Divine Sword Sect unsheathed their flying swords, one becoming two, two becoming four, four becoming eight, and soon they transformed into a dense array of sword shadows in mid-air.

"Go and find Senior Brother Wei!"

Jiang Xueheng let out a sharp cry, and the next moment, sword shadows shot out in all directions, each one bypassing the location of the Void Devil Field, following the cracks in the mountain wall, the weak points of Demonic Qi, and even drilling into the ground.

Wu Hun silently looked at Jiang Mingshan.

He remembered that this person was also a sword cultivator.

Jiang Mingshan was speechless. If he had joined the Divine Sword Sect, he would most likely have learned this move as well.

But now, all he knows how to do is operate an excavator.

"Senior sister, I can hear Senior Brother Wei's sword intent."

At the very very end of the line, Mei Yue suddenly spoke with her eyes closed.

Those who can join the Divine Sword Sect all possess some degree of talent in swordsmanship.

Although Mei Yue is not a sword physique, she has a very special talent: she can hear the sword intent of others.

As long as there is a sword cultivator nearby activating their sword intent, she can detect the aura, trajectory, and even the emotions of that sword intent within a certain range.

And now, she heard Senior Brother Wei's "Slay Ghost God." There was no mistake; she heard the killing intent contained within that sword intent, specifically targeting intangible things.

Slay Ghost God and gods does not mean slaying flesh and blood, but rather those intangible things that exist as souls and demonic thoughts; Wei Du'e used his own Yin Spirit as a guide to refine the Yin power of his three souls and seven spirits to the extreme, and then used the method of "Cultivate Yin and Transform Yang" to reverse Yin and Yang, giving birth to that wisp of supreme Yang blade.

However, that sword intent was now extremely weak, like a candle flame in the darkness, ready to dissipate at any moment.

"Over there!"

"Use your swordsmanship to clear a path for your senior brother!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the Xueheng Treasured Sword on Jiang Xueheng's back stirred up a blizzard and pierced into the rolling Demonic Qi. The other disciples of the Divine Sword Sect did the same.

Wu Hun continued to silently look at Jiang Mingshan, as if to say, "Why don't you clear a path for me too?"

Otherwise, what would we have come here for?

Jiang Mingshan was speechless. A top-grade flying sword was an essential item for disciples of major sects, but for Rogue Cultivator, it was an absolutely unattainable thing.

He doesn't have that kind of thing.

However, soon, the entire cave was filled with a rumbling sound, and the already dim environment became even darker.

The Wu Hun and Jiang Mingshan sensed something almost simultaneously.

Jiang Mingshan's expression suddenly changed. He pointed his fingers like a sword, activated "One-Line Sword Physique," and with a slash of the sword finger through the air, the darkness was torn apart with a "rip" sound, revealing the true face.

A Void Devil Field, resembling a volcano, crashed headlong into the group, scorching and distorting the void in its path, emitting sizzling sounds.

Jiang Xueheng's expression also changed. With one hand forming a sword incantation and the other hand forming Method Formula, a beam of snow-white light, like a cascading glacier, swept over with a bone-chilling cold.

The moment the divine light touched the volcanic demon field, the dark red magma light suddenly solidified. The entire demon field was like a frozen giant beast, its surface quickly covered with a thick layer of frost. Even the surging cracks were frozen into dark red ice marks, suspended in the void.

Da Cheng unleashed his "Xueheng Divine Light," freezing the volcano instantly.

The female swordswoman's face turned pale; clearly, multitasking was a huge burden for her.

However, the next moment, the female sword immortal suddenly spat out blood, and the demonic volcano opposite her suddenly expanded and contracted nine times in a single breath, directly shattering the outer ice mountain, and the rolling Demonic Qi magma poured directly into everyone.

Everyone's expression changed, because if Jiang Mingshan hadn't used his sword finger to pierce through the shadow, none of them would have sensed even a trace of Demonic Qi.

Without a doubt, this was a deliberate spell cast by someone who deliberately concealed the Demonic Qi and then released it to the public at a crucial moment.

Just as the rolling lava was about to engulf everyone, a figure suddenly stepped forward.

Wu Hun.

He wasn't tall, but at this moment he stood like a mountain between the crowd and the demonic volcano. His muscles, bones, and skin emitted a series of dense bursts of sound, as if a thousand strings were taut at the same time. Every inch of muscle, every Root Bone, and every layer of skin was tempered to the extreme at this moment.

His physical body seemed to transform into something beyond the ordinary in that instant, with tendons and bones like iron, skin and flesh like steel, Qi and Blood surging like a river, exuding a powerful and almost tangible sense of oppression.

Shattering the Void!

Wu Hun a low shout, Wu Hun unleashed a punch. That punch had no fancy moves, no Law Power fluctuations, and was purely delivered with the power of his physical body, yet it carried a force powerful enough to shatter the void.

Wherever the fist passed, the void shattered like glass struck by a heavy hammer, revealing dark cracks. The fist intent that Shattering the Void struck the core of the volcanic demon field with precision. The next moment, the dark red magma light froze for a moment as if frozen when it touched the fist, and then the entire demon field exploded.

Wu Hun's face also turned pale, and he took three steps back. His originally mountain-like, robust body crackled and popped before returning to its original state.

At the same time, he heard a familiar voice.

"Your boxing technique is starting to resemble the spirit of Yang Spirit. Teach me sometime."

"Junior sister, retreat quickly! There are demons from the Shadow Devil Sect behind us!"

Jiang Xueheng was also delighted, for he saw his senior brother Wei leading junior brother Hu out in a fierce battle.

Behind the two, the mountain path, which was being sealed off, was being eroded by a shadowy Demonic Qi. Then, a figure with a Demonic Qi staggered but kept up the chase. With each step, it seemed as if an Extraterrestrial Heavenly Devil phantom overlapped with him. Then the mountain path opened up again!

The disciples of the Divine Sword Sect hurriedly used their flying swords to shield the two, but all the flying swords that landed on the demon behind them were cut off. Even Jiang Xueheng's signature Snowflake Divine Sword Sect was swallowed whole by the demon while trembling, leaving only a pile of ice.

"Shadow Devil Dharma Body!"

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Jiang Xueheng immediately recognized the Shadow Devil Sect's signature demonic technique.

"Go, you're no match for him!!"

Wei Du'e's expression changed drastically. Just as he was about to risk damaging his foundation by using "Slay Ghost God" again, he heard a cynical voice.

"Who do we have here? It's the previous Solar Eclipse Shadow King of the Shadow Devil Sect. Weren't you killed in the internal strife of the demonic path? So you're still alive, you Old Devil."

At some point, Lu Shuichan stood before the crowd, sneered, and with a flick of his sleeve, a cloud of cold, misty water vapor shot into the sky, the sound of water rumbling like a river overflowing its banks. Countless glistening, translucent water insects, shaped like silkworms, surged out from the depths of the mist.

Wherever these mist insects' vapors passed, the air was imbued with a bone-chilling gleam; occasionally, a waterworm would accidentally burst open, and a drop of water would fall to the ground, instantly dissolving deep pits into the hard rocks.

The Solar Eclipse Shadow King behind him sensed something was wrong and tried to retreat, but no matter what kind of Void Devil Field he unleashed, it was instantly swallowed up by the water mist.

Within a few breaths, the Old Devil was completely devoured and was beyond dead.

The Old Devil, who had previously been so ferocious that he had driven Hu and Wei to flee in terror and even tried to open the Void Devil Path to summon the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Devil, was suddenly gone.

Wei Du'e was stunned for a moment, his eyes widening as if he hadn't quite come to his senses. After a long while, he blurted out:

"The Ten-Thousand-Year Water Silkworm Gu, the Bone-Dissolving Immortal Water! These are actually the Old Bone-Dissolving Immortal's signature techniques—"

However, upon seeing Lu Shuichan's ambiguous smile, Wei Du'e abruptly stopped speaking, a hint of smirk appearing on his serious face.

Hu Mang blinked.

He didn't understand the first two, but wasn't the Old Bone-Dissolving Immortal one of the top ten Loose Immortal in this world?
