"Both of you are considered powerful existences at the same level, but when you meet me, Black Demon, the only path left for you is death!" Black Demon laughed maniacally, wanting to kill Sha Tian first.
However, just as he was about to attack, he seemed to sense something and looked in a certain direction.
"What's going on? This kid is actually still alive?" Black Demon looked at Ling Xiao, who had rushed over on his Lion Tiger Beast, with a face full of shock.
Ling Xiao had been beaten into a meat patty by him. Even the Holy Emperor would not be able to survive!
Unexpectedly, in just an hour, not only did he not die, his injuries seemed to have healed, and his strength had directly increased to that of a high-level Saint. This was truly shocking.
"It must be the final radiance of a setting sun!" Black Demon narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly. His eyes were filled with disdain.
In his eyes, even if Ling Xiao had reached the strength of the Holy Emperor, he would still be unable to withstand a single blow.
Ling Xiao was ten thousand meters away from Black Demon when he muttered, "Black Demon, you traitor who betrayed your master and killed your father, today is the day you die!"
Betraying one's master and killing one's father!
These words were like a demonic sound that echoed in Black Demon's ears. It was so ear-piercing and uncomfortable that his blood and Qi couldn't help but churn.
Some scenes unconsciously appeared in his mind. When he was young, he was almost drowned in a pig cage. An imposing figure descended from the heavens and saved him. He taught him martial arts, taught him how to grow independently, and taught him how to kill, set fire, and rob for the first time …
As that person taught him more and more, his heart became more and more hateful, his ambition grew, and his rebellious mentality became stronger and stronger.
In the end, he couldn't help but swing the knife of betrayal at that person and chase that person away. Then, he naturally sat on that person's seat.
Not many people knew about this, even in the sect, and no one dared to mention it in front of him.
He had already forgotten about this matter the earliest.
He didn't regret it, nor did he feel guilty about it. However, if someone mentioned it in front of him, it would be a complete slap to his face. How could he take it?
"Mad Tooth must have told you. But do you have the ability to kill me?
Let me send the three of you on your way first! "Black Demon said with a cold expression.
Immediately after, he rushed towards Ling Xiao. He planned to kill this annoying brat first.
However, before he could reach Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao had already taken the opportunity to concentrate all his strength on his palm and hit the Sky Suppression Drum.
Dong!
Tathagata was like the bugle horn on the ancient battlefield, and like the morning bell of the drum tomb in the deep mountains and old forests, so loud and melodious.
Instantly, Black Demon felt his blood and organs churning. Blood seeped out from his seven orifices. He looked extremely frightening.
"Go to hell!" Ling Xiao roared and once again raised his hand to hit the Sky Suppression Drum.
However, when his palm landed on the Sky Suppression Drum, he suddenly lost the aura of Black Demon.
"Brat, you actually have such a trump card, but you can go to hell now!" Black Demon had already rushed behind Ling Xiao and hit Ling Xiao with his palm.
Bang!
Ling Xiao immediately fell to the ground like a cannonball.
Just as Black Demon was about to give chase again, Yurou Fei had already consumed the Spring of Life and recovered much of her strength. She shone the Static Mirror at Black Demon.
The continuous light forced Black Demon to be unable to kill Ling Xiao instantly.
Ling Xiao got up from the ground, locked onto Black Demon's aura, and hit the Sky Suppression Drum again.
Dong!
"Ah!"
Black Demon let out a blood-curdling scream. He didn't explode, but more blood seeped out from his skin.
"I, Black Demon, will remember this. Don't offend me in the future. Otherwise, I'll make you beg for death!"
Black Demon left behind these harsh words and summoned back the Demon Dragon, who was still fighting. The man and beast quickly left the space.
"Who's afraid of you, you traitor? If you have the ability, let's fight for 300 rounds. If I don't kill you, my surname isn't Ling!" Ling Xiao shouted as he chased after Black Demon with the Sky Suppression Drum in his arms.
However, after flying for only a thousand meters, his body fell heavily to the ground.
It turned out that he had just received Black Demon's all-out attack and had used all his strength on the Sky Suppression Drum. His body could no longer bear the weight.
"Smile!" Yurou Fei cried out and dragged her heavily injured body to Ling Xiao's side.
Ling Xiao laughed bitterly and said, "I'm fine. I won't die for now. Go over and take a look at Sha Tian!"
Then, he took out the Spring of Life and drank it.
With Black Demon gone, Ling Xiao and the others barely survived.
Xuan Yao's divination had come true. It was a bad omen that he had encountered the Yin Demon and the Heavenly Demon. It had almost cost him his life.
Two hours passed. Ling Xiao's body was in so much pain that he couldn't stop the pain.
Even elixirs couldn't stop the pain.
Yurou Fei, who was watching from the side, was extremely worried. She couldn't wait to suffer in place of Ling Xiao.
This was what happened to Ling Xiao after he consumed the Pseudo Sage Pill. His strength dropped from a high-level Saint to a Mystic Thearch. Moreover, it was the weakest Mystic Thearch. It would be difficult for him to fight for a month.
Consuming elixirs that could increase one's strength rapidly would usually cause great harm to a martial artist's foundation. Fortunately, Ling Xiao hadn't used the Innate Sinister Wind Pearl's power to break through to the high-level Saint level. The compressed power allowed Ling Xiao to counteract the side effects, so his foundation wasn't affected at all.
"Phew, it's really killing me. It's better to use it less in the future unless it's a matter of life and death!"
Ling Xiao sighed softly. He collapsed on Yurou Fei's soft thighs and closed his eyes to rest.
Yurou Fei and Sha Tian also took the opportunity to recover from their injuries. Only Xuan Yao scuttled behind the waterfall and entered the cave to see if it was the location of the transmission formation.
There were formation patterns in the cave, but they had been completely destroyed by someone. Even the card slots for the beast cores had been destroyed. There were also a few bodies of Yin Demons and Corpse Demons in the cave formation that had been destroyed.
Xuan Yao sighed. "It seems that there's no way to enter the Mother Formation. Moreover, the Black Demon came out from here. He might have already taken away the sacred object!"
Seven days later, Ling Xiao and the others had left the Yin Demon Sect's territory.
However, they didn't really leave. They just stayed away for a while to recuperate from their injuries.
During these days, many people from various forces kept appearing in the vicinity. They were all trying to find out if the Yin Demon Sect had really been destroyed.
When they saw the desolate area, they could finally be sure that the Yin Demon Sect had truly disappeared from the fort.
Many people wanted to pick up the leftovers and see if there were any good things in the Yin Demon Sect that hadn't been discovered.
Unfortunately, they couldn't get anything good from the Yin Demon Sect no matter how much effort they put in.
During this month, many people came to the Yin Demon Sect to investigate. In the end, after they confirmed the results, people gradually stopped coming.
Ling Xiao finally recovered his original strength.
They were still in the mountain ridge not far from the Ghastly Puppet Sect, because Ling Xiao would not give up until he entered the Mother Ghost Formation!
"Fraud, you've been pondering for a month. Have you found a way to break the Ten Thousand Slaughter Formation?" Ling Xiao asked Xuan Yao.
Xuan Yao shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "This is a top-notch killing formation. There's no way to solve it except to destroy it directly!"
"Then you can't repair the transmission formation in the cave?" Ling Xiao asked again.
Xuan Yao rolled his eyes and said, "It's already destroyed to that extent. How can I repair it?"
Ling Xiao said, "It seems that you don't have any real ability except for swindling people!"
Xuan Yao rolled his eyes and was speechless from anger. He said in a stifled tone, "Go and break it yourself if you can!"
"What if I break them? What are you going to do?" Ling Xiao said with a malicious smile.
"Impossible!" Xuan Yao replied with absolute certainty.
The Ten Thousand Slaughter Formation was a peerless and ferocious formation. It could only be broken if many peerless experts worked together to completely destroy it. However, if that was the case, even the Mother Ghost Formation would be destroyed. Whatever sacred object was inside would also be turned into powder.
Xuan Yao was knowledgeable and had studied more than a thousand formations of various sizes. He knew these formations like the back of his hand. It was impossible to break such a ominous formation, so he didn't believe that Ling Xiao could really do it.
"Haha, if I say it's possible, then it's possible. If you lose, how about you wash my underwear for a month?" Ling Xiao said with a confident smile.
Xuan Yao's face instantly fell. The Palace Master's suggestion was too bad!
"Why wouldn't I dare to see it?" Ling Xiao asked again.
Xuan Yao gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I'll see it. If I win, you must refine a few pills to increase my strength. It's best if I can reach the Saint Realm as soon as possible!"
He felt that he would definitely win, but he always felt that Ling Xiao could do something unexpected.
"No problem, I'll refine it for you for free. Let's go and break that whatever formation!" Ling Xiao said with a somewhat high-spirited look.
"I'd like to see how you do it!" Xuan Yao said with some anger.
Then, the four of them rushed to the Ghastly Drake Sect's territory again.
No one came here anymore. After all, there was still a lot of Death Qi here. It was really not suitable for anyone to cultivate or stay for long.
The four of them arrived in front of the stone room. It was the same as before.
"Sha Tian, take good care of Xuan Yao. The rest of you stay away, I'm going to break the formation!" Ling Xiao stopped playing around and said very seriously.
Xuan Yao said, "Palace Master, don't take risks. Maybe all the things inside have been taken by Black Demon. Don't let the gains outweigh the losses!"
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. If I don't go in and take a look, I won't feel at ease!" Ling Xiao replied.
Then, the spatial ring on his finger turned into a medicine cauldron.
"Go!" Ling Xiao didn't hesitate and directly smashed the Obsidian Cauldron into the passage where the formation was laid.
Rumble!
The terrifying energy rays instantly circulated, emitting a terrifying might that could destroy anything in its path.
Ling Xiao and the others were shocked by the power of this Ten Thousand Slaughter Formation and quickly retreated far away.
