Xiao An lifted the Buddha Slaying sword embryo silently.
The Corpse Commanders had broken free after all this, so they were utterly fuming. They immediately gathered their corpse qi for revenge, only to see there was not a single Corpse Soldiers remaining on the ground for them to command. They could not help but be taken aback.
They had only been suppressed in the Blood Sea Banner for a short moment, yet the situation outside had changed so drastically.
Xiao An did not care about what they thought either. She swung the Buddha Slaying sword embryo backwards and leapt up, shooting towards the group of Corpse Commanders like a bolt of lightning. She actually wanted to face off against several dozen Corpse Commanders alone.
Even Gu Yanying began to think her mental capacity was a little lacking. These two basically could not be understood with conventional thinking!
Why would the Corpse Commanders be afraid? They roared as they received her, but they did not lose their calm. Their auras linked together, weaving into a huge, flawless net. They wanted to trap her in the net before ripping her to shreds.
The one that lunged at her was the mourning-stick-wielding Corpse Commander who matched Han Anguo evenly earlier. He let out a sharp wail that could sway the minds of people like an invisible, sharp pick. The mourning stick in his hand turned into hundreds of blurs, yet every single blur was a real attack, raining down on her head like a storm.
The other Corpse Commanders used various attacks too as punches, teeth, claws, and corpse qi all rushed over.
Xiao An brought the Buddha Slaying sword embryo before her calmly and began swinging it skillfully. She was like a master of calligraphy unleashing a wild scribble, free and easy, taking great delight in the process.
She passed through the net the Corpse Commanders weaved. The Corpse Commanders who confronted her directly all became stunned in the air.
The Corpse Commander dressed in mourning attire gazed at the mourning stick in his hand. It suddenly broke into two pieces along the middle, falling to the ground. Then he lowered his head and gazed at himself. Slashes criss-crossed his body, first as black lines before expanding and separating.
His face was filled with disbelief. He used his hands to cover his wounds as black corpse qi flowed out between his fingers.
In that moment, he was carved into pieces, falling out of the sky.
In a single clash, five Corpse Commanders had been cut to pieces.
It was true that the Buddha Slaying sword embryo did not possess any powers yet. It was only especially tough and sharp, so sharp that whether it was the protective corpse qi or the Corpse Commanders’ indestructible bodies, none of them seemed to exist before it.
“What sword is that? Even my atmospheric winds aren’t that great.” Gu Yanying was stunned. Her atmospheric winds were powerful, but collecting and refining them was extremely troublesome. It was nowhere near as convenient as a sword.
Only now did Han Anguo remember his battle with the Corpse Commander in mourning attire earlier, which left him even more speechless. Originally, he thought it was about time to teach the daemons a lesson and clean up the matters of the Clear River prefecture, but he no longer possessed that confidence now.
When he looked over at the moon demon, something startling was happening there too!
Chapter 550: The Fifth Layer of the Ox Demon | Legend of the Great Sage
Li Qingshan’s entire body blazed with fire. Even the surrounding ground had melted into red-hot, flowing lava. With his head lowered, kneeling in the pool of lava, he seemed like a demon god of fire at the end of his path, sunken deeply in mud.
He slowly raised a leg with difficulty, switching to a half-kneeling pose before suddenly raising his head, clenching his fists and spreading his arms, letting out a furious roar at the sky.
The flames surged madly as his scarlet hair drifted, dyeing the sky red.
The ox demon stands with its horns towards the heavens! This was a will to never yield!
Within the flames, his flesh and blood constantly regrew as his strength skyrocketed.
“He actually withstood it!” Gu Yanying was greatly shocked. That was four golden cores after all.
More accurately, it was five. There had also been a golden core from Wen Zhangqing.
The great strength of the ox demon was boundless.
However, that was not enough. It still was not enough!
It was not enough to defeat the Corpse King, and it was not enough to break through to the fifth layer of the ox demon.
Li Qingshan suddenly turned. The flames swept around and changed into the shape of pupils in his eye sockets, gazing at the injured Golden Core cultivator who had half his body destroyed.
With a tiger’s roar, he lunged over.
In that moment, everyone saw the flames on him transform into a winged, scarlet tiger, surging with malice and raging killing intent.
“Stop, wretched daemon!”
The Marquis of Ruyi yelled out, but he was unable to stop him in time, nor did he have the power to stop him.
“Wretched daemon, I’ll take you down with me!” the cultivator roared crazily. His golden core began to revolve and radiate with resplendent light, about to blow up with terrifying power.
The tiger claws condensed from fire kept it from moving before conjuring the figure of the spirit turtle. The trembling golden core settled down reluctantly.
The Spirit Turtle Suppresses the Seas, suppressing all restlessness.
The fire tiger extended its tongue and swept the golden core into its mouth, nodding slightly as if it was satisfied. It turned its head and glanced past the other cultivators.
The hearts of all cultivators sank completely. They faced internal and external strife. Both the Corpse King and the daemon were extremely terrifying.
Never had they thought this battle would actually end up so horrifying.
“Die, wretched daemon!”
The Seal of Mountains and Rivers smashed down. It was covered in cracks, but it was still tremendously powerful.
The fire tiger had already vanished from there. With a trail of flames, it lunged over and pressed down the other injured Golden Core cultivator, directly swallowing his golden core.
The cultivator was also prepared to blow up his golden core, but if Li Qingshan did not attack him, he obviously would not dig his own grave. Even ants cravenly clung to life, let alone a mighty Golden Core cultivator.
However, by the time Li Qingshan attacked him, all was too late. The spirit turtle could suppress the golden core before it exploded.
There were only two people present who could stop Li Qingshan. One was the Dark Queen, while the other was Gu Yanying, but neither of them had any intentions of stopping him.
The other cultivators were completely worn out from the battle. Even if they wanted to save them, they had to consider whether they had that ability or not.
Although the Marquis of Ruyi constantly tried to smash him with the Seal of Mountains and River, he climbed higher and higher into the air, just hurling constant abuse.
In the blink of an eye, Li Qingshan had killed three Golden Core cultivators, swallowing another three golden cores.
To the cultivators’ relief, Li Qingshan’s hunt ended with that. He began another round of refinement.
Everything had happened in a split second. From when he roared out to the three pounces, a lot had happened, but it all occurred within a few seconds.
If any mortals were present, they would not have even been able to grasp what had happened, let alone respond.
In total, Li Qingshan had swallowed eight golden cores!
“What’s he trying to do that actually requires so many golden cores? Is he trying to break through to Daemon Commander? That’s impossible. Once he triggered the heavenly tribulation, even if he survives it narrowly, he’ll be on his last legs. He won’t be of any assistance to this battle!”
No, I can’t let him continue like this. The Corpse King also felt that something was amiss, so he immediately summoned all the Corpse Commanders.
