Immediately afterward, the Demon Emperor's puppet's palm pierced through the palm print and struck Lin Xi hard in the chest. A crisp sound echoed outwards. Lin Xi's body stiffened, a jet of blood spurted from his mouth, and he was sent flying, looking utterly disheveled. The Demon Emperor's puppet in front of Lin Xi, however, remained unharmed.
Its eyes, bloodshot like a wild beast's, stared at Lin Xi, grinning maliciously: "Kid, you're no match for me!"
"Yeah?"
A cruel smile curled at the corner of Lin Xi's lips, and an astonishing sword intent suddenly erupted from his body. "Immortal-Slaying Sword Technique, Immortal Slaying!" With a flick of Lin Xi's hand, the giant sword suddenly expanded. Countless sword lights flashed continuously. Lin Xi's eyes turned blood red as he frantically devoured the sword lights. In an instant, all the sword lights were absorbed by him.
"What?"
Upon seeing this, the Demon Emperor's puppet's pupils contracted, and an expression of disbelief appeared on its face. Suddenly, the giant sword shot out, slashing down fiercely at the Demon Emperor's puppet's head. The Demon Emperor's puppet hurriedly raised its hand, trying to block the giant sword, but it was too late; the giant sword sliced its hand into pieces.
"ah!"
The Demon Emperor's puppet screamed, its face turning pale and its body trembling, clearly severely injured. It let out a long breath and then turned to flee. However, Lin Xi's speed was astonishing, catching up in the blink of an eye.
Lin Xi was incredibly fast, instantly catching up to the Demon Emperor's puppet. He stretched out his palm, fingers together, and with a sudden tear, aimed at the puppet's back!
"Bang!"
With a tearing sound, a gruesome wound immediately split open on the Demon Emperor's puppet's back, blood flowing freely, a horrifying sight. A cold smile played on Lin Xi's lips.
"Go to hell!"
He took a step forward and fiercely grabbed at the Demon Emperor's puppet's head. The massive head split open with a crack, turning into a spray of blood. Lin Xi reached out and absorbed all the blood into his body, then looked around, a solemn expression on his face. There seemed to be many high-level Martial King level disciples of the Demon Dragon Sect in this valley, including three Half-Saint level martial artists.
"Looks like I'll have to find a secluded spot to use my Illusionary Demon Escape technique again."
Lin Xi muttered to himself, then grabbed the Demon Emperor's puppet's body. He was about to forge a storage ring when suddenly the ground trembled slightly, as if an earthquake had occurred. A deafening thunderclap followed...
Then, two flames emerged from the ground, instantly transforming into a fiery griffin and a red dragon, which flew away quickly into the distance.
These two are the demon puppet and the fire griffon.
Although they are all at the semi-saint level, they cooperate very well and have extremely strong combat power.
Their target is the mountain peak outside the Demon Cloud Mountains.
By cooperating with each other, they can leverage the power of the mountains to further enhance their strength.
"Trying to run away?"
"Dream on!"
Seeing this, Lin Xi curled his lips into a cold smile, lightly touched his toes, and his body shot out like a wisp of smoke.
He was enveloped in an incomparably sharp sword light, like a peerless divine sword, piercing straight towards the demon puppet and the fire griffon.
Those sharp sword beams, like blades of death, slashed fiercely at the fire griffin, instantly slicing it in two.
"ah!"
The demon puppet screamed in agony, its entire body covered in blood and mangled beyond recognition.
The fire griffin was severely injured, its claws leaving horrific marks on the ground, and blood was flowing freely.
"You can't escape!"
"Go to hell!"
Lin Xi's eyes were icy cold, revealing his murderous intent.
He moved swiftly and gave chase.
The next moment, he waved his hands, and a sword aura flew out, enveloping both the demon puppet and the fire griffon.
"ah!"
The demon puppet and the fire griffon howled in agony.
This attack dealt a heavy blow to their strength.
"No!"
"Lin Xi!"
The demon puppet and the fire griffin let out shrill screams, their eyes filled with terror, appearing panicked.
They never imagined that this boy was so powerful!
Just then, a series of sharp, whistling sounds filled the sky as figures sped towards them from afar, eventually stopping at this spot.
The scene stunned the onlookers. They stared at the demon puppet and the fire griffin, their faces filled with astonishment and their eyes with disbelief.
"Who is that kid? He actually managed to challenge three disciples of the Demon Dragon Sect at the half-saint realm all by himself, and even killed them all?"
"This is outrageous! It's utterly lawless!"
"Yes, a disciple of the Demon Dragon Sect at the Half-Saint realm—that's a disciple of one of the top sects in our East Sea region."
"It's a pity such a genius died so young, otherwise I would definitely have tried to win him over."
People were talking excitedly, their eyes wide and their faces full of disbelief.
Just then, a figure suddenly appeared next to the three corpses.
The moment that person appeared, everyone's expression changed.
"Lin Xi, how dare you kill someone from our Demon Dragon Sect! Our Demon Dragon Sect will not let you get away with this!"
"Hmph, I hope the Demon Dragon Sect sends as many people as possible; let's see how you escape then!"
"The demon puppet said coldly."
Lin Xi sneered and turned his gaze to the disciples of the Demon Dragon Sect.
"I'll only ask you one question."
"If you answer me honestly, you will live; otherwise..."
"Or what?"
"Otherwise, today will be your end!"
Hearing Lin Xi's words, the disciples of the Demon Dragon Sect were furious, but they were helpless.
What do you want to know?
One of the Demon Dragon Sect disciples asked in a deep voice.
"I want to know, who exactly is your master?"
Lin Xi asked in a serious tone.
Upon hearing this, the disciple's expression changed slightly, then he sneered, "How could you possibly fathom my master's identity? You'd better surrender obediently, lest another tragic end awaits you!"
Lin Xi's eyes were cold: "Since that's the case, then you can all die."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xi suddenly rushed out and headed straight for the disciples of the Demon Dragon Sect.
"He's courting death!"
The disciples' faces were extremely gloomy, and they then each unleashed their innate supernatural abilities.
Clusters of pitch-black flames erupted from their bodies, coalescing into three black lotuses in the air, sweeping towards Lin Xi.
The three black lotuses seemed capable of burning everything, enveloping Lin Xi with unparalleled power.
Lin Xi's pupils contracted slightly, and then he made a sword gesture, and a terrifying soul fluctuation suddenly erupted.
