Chapter 121 Chapter 121 There are those who do not abide by martial ethics...
It is not easy to come back to life from the dead. If you want to violate the law of reincarnation in this world, you will definitely have to pay a price.
The demons would not bear this price for them, nor would they care whether they were willing to be resurrected. Anyway, if they survived, they were destined to not be able to return to the side of human monks, and would be more and more tied to the demons, becoming grasshoppers on the same rope.
Having betrayed his companions in the past, he must now bear the consequences.
The sunset in the cave is very fast.
The demons must have been worried about a car accident, so they showed up at the right time. Not long after the two sides confronted each other, the sun completely sank into the horizon, and the sky turned black in an instant.
There were no torches or lamps on either side of the road; the only light provided by the sparse stars and the crescent moon overhead.
It's not pitch dark, but pretty close.
The monks have excellent night vision, and this little darkness does not affect their vision.
All the black-robed people present breathed a sigh of relief silently, as darkness finally came.
Gu Jingyun tensed up, thinking about how to deal with the situation - he had no shortage of fire for lighting, but based on past experience, magic cultivators should not be afraid of artificial fire, but pure natural sunlight.
When Yu Hanyi attacked the marching team, there was no shortage of firelight in the team, but he was still able to show up openly.
In this case, perhaps we should consider using formations or magical instruments...
Gu Jingyun's palm hanging by his side was suddenly touched again.
He lowered his eyes calmly and saw that it was Jiang Yan's magic wand.
In a flash, Gu Jingyun understood it in an instant.
Ayan is an elf.
He knows magic, and is best at light and nature magic.
Um……
Isn't this a sure win?
At least Yu Hanyi will definitely not be able to escape.
Gu Jingyun and Jiang Yan exchanged glances and felt relieved.
Except for the two of them, everyone else was very nervous, thinking that there would be a big battle today. After all, the other side had more people and more power, while they were weaker.
Five meters away, the demon cultivators were very relaxed. After surrounding the four people, they took off their hoods one after another.
Looking around, all of these faces are people who have done evil things that are against the will of others and are extremely evil.
The man standing next to Yu Hanyi was not wearing a hood. He was a "living man" and was not afraid of the light.
The man stepped forward and shouted:
"Gu Jingyun, if you surrender and accept the demon seed, the Great Elder will spare your life."
Gu Jingyun asked: "Who are you?"
"..." The man choked and said calmly: "I am the chief disciple of the Great Elder, the right protector of the demon clan, Zhu Hongbo."
"Huh?" Ling Hanzhang glanced back quickly, then turned back and said with his back to them, "Hasn't the Right Protector been arrested by us and put in jail, to be executed on a later date? How did he escape and chase us here?"
"The one who was captured was the Left Protector." Song Hua said, "Master Ling, can't you tell the left from the right?"
"Oh, maybe I remembered it wrong." Ling Hanzhang said.
"Please don't question the work of the Sirius Guards. We are professionals and will never let anyone escape." Ji Ziheng said in a deep voice.
"Yes, yes, I won't do that next time." Ling Hanzhang muttered, "Who makes this title sound unreliable?"
The group of demons on the opposite side: "..."
Right Guardian: “…”
Yu Hanyi smiled and said, "Hanzhang, I haven't seen you for a while. You have become more eloquent."
Ling Hanzhang said bluntly: "There are still many things you don't know."
"I think so." Yu Hanyi slowly moved his gaze to the young man in the center, "For example... I guess this unfamiliar friend must be the most beautiful woman in the world, famous throughout the five continents, right?"
Jiang Yan: “?”
When did he get another nickname?
She defeated everyone in the sect competition and became the best in the world. Because her appearance and temperament were far superior to ordinary people, she called herself a beauty.
If you put them together, she will become the most beautiful woman in the world? That's too hasty.
Not as good as the world's number one swordsman, which sounds much more domineering.
Jiang Yan ignored him and did not answer, which made Yu Hanyi feel bored.
Tan Xiaoyue followed behind the right protector and said in a sarcastic tone, "What beauty? Elder Yu, you should show some respect to her. She is the wife of Young Master Gu, and they are very loving!"
Yu Hanyi instantly thought of a misunderstanding that had led him to his doom.
——He mistakenly thought that Gu Jingyun was training hard to steal his limelight and compete with him for the position of headmaster. In fact, he was just stimulated by his father's words, and in order to have common topics with his future Taoist partner and not be a gigolo, he practiced hard.
Yu Hanyi's breathing was unstable and he glared at Tan Xiaoyue fiercely.
Tan Xiaoyue was innocently caught in the crossfire and it was very confusing.
If I didn't dare to offend my superiors, I would definitely respond to this glance.
The right guardian struggled to change the subject: "Gu Jingyun, if you lead your men and your wife to surrender——"
Gu Jingyun: "Where is your great elder?"
Right Protector: "If you behave well, the Great Elder will see you."
Gu Jingyun: "So he's not here?"
The Right Protector asked, "You are asking so many questions, but are you serious about surrendering?"
Gu Jingyun shook his head slightly.
"I just regret..."
The man grasped the hilt of the Sword of Inquiry with his backhand and said slowly, "It's a pity that I can't catch you all at once."
As soon as the words fell, accompanied by a light "clang" sound, the Sword of Questioning Heart suddenly came out of its sheath!
This sound seemed like a command, but also like a small stone, shattering the illusion of calm.
Everyone drew their weapons and faced each other, vowing to fight to the death!
Jiang Yan immediately sent a message to the others: [The person in the black robe is afraid of light! I will find a chance to release the light magic, don't give them a chance to block it! ]
Everyone immediately understood.
The two sides had a disagreement and started fighting each other.
For a moment, the field was filled with flashing swords, flying spells and formations, with a few hidden weapons mixed in. It was very lively.
The development of the situation surprised the demon cultivators. They had wanted to catch Gu Jingyun off guard, but they did not expect that the other party seemed to be confident and rushed over with his men.
and……
The demon cultivators looked at their torn clothes and their expressions gradually changed.
Aren’t these people decent people?
How could the means of attack be so despicable?
Ling Hanzhang and others didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
They were carrying out Jiang Yan's instructions perfectly.
Don't give anyone a chance to cover themselves - if all their clothes are taken off, there will be nowhere to hide.
Moreover, demon cultivators also have to have dignity, and in a serious fight, what they are competing for is their bloodiness.
They stripped naked and beat each other to see who had the thickest skin.
Ling Hanzhang shook his head and sighed, saying in a low voice: "Falling petals and flying flowers!"
At the same time, his wrist turned flexibly, and the long sword twisted and stabbed like a snake.
The opponent's black robe and inner shirt fell down like petals.
If you ignore the fluttering corners of the clothes, it's actually quite beautiful.
The macho-looking demon cultivator: "..."
Oh no, there’s a pervert!
Jiang Yan, who witnessed everything: "..."
Actually, I’m not - never mind, that’s fine.
The demon cultivator's eyes widened with anger, and he was about to start cursing.
The belt snapped.
He reflexively pulled up his pants which were slipping down, raised his eyes to meet Ling Hanzhang's gaze, and without thinking, covered his chest with his backhand.
He covered his chest, but his pants were not held up, so they slowly fell down. He pulled up his pants, and his chest was exposed again.
The demon cultivator was very frightened and was in a state of panic.
Ling Hanzhang: “…”
Bro, don't be like this, I'm not interested in you.
Suddenly, two long silk threads flew over diagonally, one wrapped around the demon cultivator and swept him away, while the other, like a force of a thousand pounds, hit Ling Hanzhang hard.
Ling Hanzhang raised his sword to block, but at that moment, other demon cultivators attacked, and their moves were fierce and deadly, aiming to take people's lives - their dirty moves even made the demon cultivators attack even more fiercely.
If Jiang Yan hadn't come over to block it for him, Ling Hanzhang would have been seriously injured.
Jiang Yan whispered: "Hold on a little longer."
Ling Hanzhang also used up a lot of spiritual energy, took a breath, and replied, "Okay."
Of course, it takes time to accumulate power to release large-scale magic.
Jiang Yan couldn't let anyone see it, so he hid the magic wand in the sleeve of his left hand, chanted the magic spell silently, and held the sword in his right hand to fend off the attacks of others.
It was difficult to do two things at once, and it was even more difficult for him to release the forbidden spell.
The offense was impossible, and the defense was just passable.
After helping to deal with this side, Jiang Yan returned to his own defense line.
They each occupied a corner, so they didn't have to worry about exposing their backs to the enemy.
Ling Hanzhang looked at the demon woman in front of him.
"Miss Tan is pleased with me, isn't she? Why are you so cruel as to kill me now?"
"Bah!" Tan Xiaoyue said coldly, "You scheming man, even cutting someone's clothes during a duel. Don't you know it's an eyesore?!"
Ling Hanzhang shrugged: "No way, I don't want to do it either."
This trick works even if the person is not afraid of light.
Look, that person is now busy hiding behind and putting on his pants and has no time to take action.
Tan Xiaoyue shouted: "Stop talking nonsense and watch!"
The two fought several times. The demon cultivator did not care about one-on-one combat and preferred sneak attacks and unsportsmanlike behavior.
Ling Hanzhang was outnumbered, so it was inevitable that he would get injured.
He didn't say a word, swallowed the blood foam back into his throat, and habitually used his most convenient "Falling Petals" move. The sword tip danced out, and the person in front of him jumped away as if he was dodging the sword immortal's sword that could break the sky.
Even Tan Xiaoyue was no exception. With the help of silk, she could run even farther.
Ling Hanzhang: “……?”
Ling Hanzhang seemed to be thinking about something.
Ling Hanzhang began to go further and further down the path of violence, never cutting a man's belt if possible or just slashing his shirt, and kicking him in the most vulnerable part of his body as hard as he could.
I wonder if the resurrected undead are still afraid of a crotch kick.
It turns out they were very scared.
The demon cultivators would most likely not dodge a sword thrust toward their chests, but they would definitely dodge a kick thrust toward their legs as a conditioned reflex.
Become a monster.
They are men too.
Tan Xiaoyue was able to remain calm because she was one of the very few girls in the crowd, and Ling Hanzhang still had a bottom line and would not attack her.
But the other demon cultivators were devastated.
"Are you from the Sword Sect or the Xuanyin Sect? How come your methods are exactly the same as those of the Xuanyin Sect disciples!"
Ling Hanzhang thought to himself, to be honest with you, when we go out and fight with others, we all like to disguise ourselves as disciples of the Xuanyin Sect.
There is happiness in not observing martial ethics.
It's not just Ling Hanzhang.
The same was true for several other people.
At the same time, when Ling Hanzhang just started to cut the clothes of the macho demon cultivator.
Fierce fighting was also breaking out on the other side.
Yu Hanyi dodged Gu Jingyun's sword in a panic.
He dodged the head of the "Fierce Sun" attack but not the tail.
The sword's tip was like a stream of red light, and its "tail flame" brushed past the corner of his robe, instantly igniting his clothes.
The overbearing spiritual power invaded in an instant.
Yu Hanyi quickly used his sword to cut off the hem of his robe and thus escaped the disaster.
“……” Yu Hanyi’s face was dark and gloomy.
Although he was facing Gu Jingyun head-on, Yu Hanyi always retained some strength and carefully observed the entire situation.
He always had a weird feeling in his heart.
Yu Hanyi boasted that he knew his two junior fellow apprentices very well.
Gu Jingyun and Ling Hanzhang would not bother to use such despicable means even if they were in desperate situations.
Is there another intention?
Yu Hanyi rebuked tentatively: "Junior brother, Master taught us that we should be upright in our conduct. How can you behave like this now!"
Gu Jingyun found it very funny.
"Did I hear it wrong? You actually said the words 'open and aboveboard'. You'd better not insult these four words."
“If it hadn’t been for you—” Yu Hanyi gritted his teeth.
"Even if I were a playboy, you would have reasons to hate me. Even without me, you would hate someone else, maybe Han Zhang, or some other outstanding disciple in the Sword Sect."
Gu Jingyun said coldly: "Don't make excuses for your jealousy, Yu Hanyi, you are just born vicious."
No one is perfect, and it is normal to be jealous of people who are better than you.
But to betray the sect that treated him well and to kill his master and his master's wife by using someone else's knife is to be a pure ungrateful person and there is no excuse for that.
Before the incident, everyone in the Sword Sect respected Yu Hanyi as the eldest senior brother. Sect Master Gu and Madam Wei also treated him very well. No one had ever treated him unfairly.
"You are the one who let all of us down." Gu Jingyun said.
Yu Hanyi's face twitched violently, his eyes were filled with complicated emotions, and finally became sinister and crazy.
"I'm not wrong." Yu Hanyi murmured, "I'm going to capture all of you and sacrifice you to the formation. The Great Elder will definitely thank me! After the Demon Lord is resurrected, I will have this achievement and will be the Chief Elder, second only to the first person and above ten thousand people!"
Gu Jingyun said: "If you hadn't rebelled, you would have been the leader of the Sword Sect, who is above ten thousand people. Do you know that I don't want the position of leader, but I aspire to be a free and easy person?"
Yu Hanyi didn't believe it. He didn't want to and couldn't believe it, otherwise he would be denying his past actions.
Gu Jingyun said coldly: "My poor father had already thought about when to abdicate, and he even deliberately went out to travel with mother, leaving the Sword Sect to you to manage, waiting to come back to check the results. I didn't expect -"
"Shut up!!!" Yu Hanyi shouted.
Yu Hanyi lost his mind and attacked almost crazily.
Yu Hanyi has reached the peak of the Void Refining Realm, and there are other demon cultivators around to help him, so Gu Jingyun has a hard time dealing with him.
But he was relieved.
Just lose your mind and you won't have the mind to pay attention to other places.
Jiang Yan lowered his head slightly, his lips moved slightly, and he recited the long spell quickly and silently.
Due to insufficient magic power, he was unable to cast the forbidden spell instantly and could only recite the complete spell.
As the spell draws closer to its end, the fluctuations in magic power become more intense.
Finally someone realized something was wrong.
"He's accumulating strength!"
The right guardian dodged Ji Ziheng's attack and shouted, "Don't give him the chance to use magic, interrupt him!"
With such a strong energy fluctuation, no matter what spell it is, its power will not be small.
The demon cultivators obeyed the order and changed direction without hesitation.
"Protect him!" Gu Jingyun shouted.
Ji Ziheng, Song Hua, and Ling Hanzhang immediately stood in front of Jiang Yan to protect him from the attacks of the evil cultivator.
Gu Jingyun protected Jiang Yan's back, and facing several demon cultivators who wanted to sneak attack Jiang Yan, he angrily slashed with his sword.
This sword is hotter than the scorching sun and full of murderous energy, as if it can break through the mountains, rivers, sun and moon. The vast sword light is unstoppable!
The demon cultivators who were attacked head-on were simply unable to stop them. Those who were slightly stronger were knocked away, spitting blood, and fell to the ground. The demon cultivators with weaker strength...
It was actually cut in half, blood was flowing all over the ground, and it smelled extremely bad.
The grooves on the Sword of Questioning were flashing with blood.
But even someone as strong as Gu Jingyun found it difficult to deal with the increasing number of men in black robes approaching.
It was a dark mass, with no end in sight. Where did all these demon cultivators come from?
Song Hua swung out with his palm, and the wind from his palm blew off the hood of a man in black robe.
His eyes widened in surprise.
It turned out to be a skeleton warrior without flesh and blood!
It is the undead army summoned by undead magic!
The battlefield is ever-changing and the situation changes very quickly.
From the start of the fight to now, the parties have been fighting back and forth, and it seems like a long time, but in fact it has not even lasted half an incense stick.
Yu Hanyi rushed over. He calmed down a little and was about to take a look to identify which sect's magic Jiang Yan used so as to find a countermeasure.
Jiang Yan no longer hides it.
The sleeve of his left hand slipped down, revealing a white wrist and the magic wand tightly grasped in his palm.
Yu Hanyi was stunned.
What kind of kung fu is that with a wooden stick?
White light gathered at the tip of the wand. The light was pure white. Because the magic power was compressed to the extreme, there was a faint vortex of energy rotating above the point where the wand was pointing.
"...God of Light, please drive away the darkness and the evil spirits..."
Yu Hanyi's expression changed, "Not good!"
He didn't understand what the spell was, but he could feel the threat of the holy light.
The most obvious thing is that the skeleton soldiers have become afraid and dare not move forward to attack.
The moment when the magic power reaches its peak.
Jiang Yan shouted: "Holy Land of Light!"
The white light at the tip of the staff suddenly "exploded".
The magic power of light seemed to have substance, like water ripples, spreading out in all directions with Jiang Yan as the center. Without even blinking an eye, it had spread to the entire area within that millisecond.
The holy light covered a very wide area, extending from the fork in the road where they were ambushed, and even all the way to the Danxia Palace and Lingxiao Palace on the left and right sides.
From a distance, it looks like "dawn".
Many monks who were still in the secret realm felt this energy and stopped to look back.
"King?" the Snow Demon soldier asked, "There's movement in the Lingxiao Palace. Is it a treasure that has appeared? Should we go check it out?"
Before Xue Lan could say anything, her eyes suddenly became fierce and she appeared in a bush in the distance.
When I pushed aside the grass, I saw a skeleton desperately hiding in the shadows.
"It's a monster!" the snow demon soldier said in surprise.
Xue Lan picked it up and threw it onto an unobstructed road. The holy light came from afar, but due to the distance it was not able to completely cover it. Just a little halo at the edge made the skeleton howl miserably and incoherently.
Xue Lan waved her hand, and immediately a snow demon came forward to deal with the skeleton.
"Let's go take a look." Xue Lan pondered, "It doesn't look like a treasure has appeared, but more like..."
His cousin is making a big splash.
…
That's true.
Jiang Yan used the forbidden spell of light - the Holy Land of Light, to directly defeat the ambush of the demons.
The holy light was not dazzling to Jiang Yan and others. They just felt warm on their bodies and their injuries were recovering at an extremely fast speed.
Except for Jiang Yan's face which turned much paler, everyone else's complexion improved and returned to their peak condition.
However, holy light is a disaster for the demons.
The skeletons that were close to it didn't even have time to struggle before being annihilated by the light.
Monsters that are a little further away will shrink into the shadows of the black robes, but it is useless.
The Forbidden Light Spell is different from other low-level magic. It cannot be blocked by a cloak alone, not to mention that they are not wearing enchanted magic robes, but ordinary black cloaks.
He couldn't even withstand noon, let alone the forbidden spell that used all of Jiang Yan's magical power.
In a world where magic power is not sufficient, the Demon Lord fell into a long sleep, and the inheritance of undead magic was almost cut off. Hundreds of years ago, there were still people who could use it, but now the demons were surrounded by monks, some died, some fled, and except for the great elder, no one in the demon clan could use orthodox undead magic.
Almost all of them are demon cultivators who have "developed" from demon seeds in the later stage.
Summoning skeleton soldiers is not easy, especially such a large-scale undead army. It is extremely difficult to summon them and bring them into the snow area quietly. It almost consumed most of the efforts of the great elder.
Yu Hanyi no longer had time to worry about how to escape the punishment from the Great Elder.
He is trying to save his life.
Holy light does not harm humans, but kills evil spirits.
But……
He, and other demon cultivators like him, are no longer considered human, but monsters.
Yu Hanyi used his spiritual power to hold up a protective shield, desperately shielding himself, while trying to turn around and escape.
His cultivation level is high, so he can hold on for a moment.
Other demon cultivators with lower cultivation levels have gradually "melted" in the light, leaving no blood or bones, and have turned into particles of dust.
When the wind blows, the ashes will not be left behind and no one knows where they will be blown to.
How can this not make people terrified!
The demon cultivators hid their faces in black robes like vampires seeing the light, and turned around and fled.
Now I understand why they use the despicable clothes-cutting tactic.
The demon cultivator without the black robe to cover himself doesn’t even have the last bit of protection, it’s gone instantly!
"Right Protector!" Yu Hanyi shouted, "Come and help me!!"
Zhu Hongbo hurried over and used his spiritual power to help him set up a pitch-black formation.
The demon cultivators all hid in the formation they had set up.
"Don't let them run away!" Jiang Yan shouted hurriedly.
Everyone used various means to intercept him.
Song Hua used palm wind to "push" them back, and occasionally used runes and formations to blast and disrupt them, making it impossible for the demon cultivators to gather spiritual power to resist the holy light.
Ling Hanzhang simply continued cutting clothes.
I don’t know what Sect Master Gu and Elder Ling Dai would think when they saw this scene.
Ji Ziheng had a stern face as he fought against the demon cultivator - not all demon cultivators were afraid of light, some were not.
Ji Ziheng was in excellent condition at this time, his energy and blood were fully restored, and he was not afraid of being injured at all.
Even a wound as small as a fingernail can be healed instantly under the protection of holy light.
The demon cultivator on the opposite side is different.
In the holy land, the demon cultivators who have accepted the demon seed will be suppressed to some extent, which is very disadvantageous to them.
A speck of light slowly floated down and landed in the hair of the demon woman.
The picture is extremely beautiful, but unfortunately, the reality is cruel.
Tan Xiaoyue spat out a mouthful of blood. His heart had been pierced and the light in his eyes gradually faded.
Gu Jingyun took back the Sword of Questioning Heart and swung it casually, and drops of blood fell from the tip of the sword to the ground.
The body of the demon woman fell heavily to the ground, and she was no longer breathing.
Gu Jingyun didn't look at him any further and turned to chase Yu Hanyi.
Yu Hanyi and the demon clan's right protector, along with their remaining subordinates, are fleeing towards the Lingxiao Palace!
