Chapter 79 A Chance Encounter



While the two were talking, there was already some noise coming from the hilltop, indicating that a fight had broken out. Yin Huan naturally heard the noise as well, and upon regaining her senses, she became worried about Su Yi and the other two who had gone to check on the situation.

But when he thought about how Hei Xiong had dared to complain about the Taoist priest who exorcised ghosts back at the hotel, his anxiety eased a little.

"Come on, let's go take a look. You'd better hide me well later, and don't let the demon slayer find me." Silver Ring was itching to see Su Yi and the others beat up the demon slayer, but while watching them beat up the demon slayer, she had to hide herself first.

Based on the Green Python's previous analysis, Silver Ring disliked the demon slayer even more.

Green Python: "Don't worry, as long as it's not broad daylight, it won't be so easy for them to find you."

After saying that, the green python picked up the silver ring, and with a swift movement, it carried her to the mountain peak ahead.

The deep mountains were pitch black at night, the dense trees obscuring the moonlight and making visibility extremely poor. In the low-lying part of the canyon, two groups of people, their paths meeting in a narrow gap, immediately clashed.

Demon hunters and demons are natural enemies, destined to kill each other upon first meeting—this has been their age-old way of coexisting. Only after the reform and opening up, when Huo Fei emerged from seclusion and established an agreement, did the situation ease somewhat. But no matter how much easing was achieved, the two sides remained mutually resentful. When they encountered each other, regardless of good or evil, a fight was commonplace.

Su Yi and his two companions proceeded cautiously, intending to approach the group to investigate. Initially, they had no intention of provoking a conflict; after all, they were ex-prisoners, and the older demon hunters remembered them.

But to everyone's surprise, Min Wenzhi had a compass specifically for detecting demonic energy. Sure enough, as soon as the three of them approached the Taoist priests, the demonic energy suddenly surged. Min Wenzhi's compass spun rapidly and finally pointed directly at the three people hiding in the big tree.

And so, the two sides fought for several days.

Min Wenzhi initially thought that Tengshe had emerged, but after Daoyuan had shaken the three demons in the tree to reveal themselves, he discovered that the situation was not as he had imagined.

Strange, this Fuding Mountain is just an ordinary mountain, not a place where spiritual veins gather. It's one thing that a terrifying Teng Snake has appeared here, but now, three demons have appeared as well.

How come there are so many powerful demons? It seems I'll have to report this when I get back and have headquarters send professionals to take a look. There might be some hidden paradise here that they don't know about.

The two sides were locked in fierce combat, their figures moving like ghosts, darting swiftly among the jagged rocks of the canyon. The Taoist priests' unique talismanic fire, like eerie will-o'-the-wisps at night, swirled and danced in the air.

"Senior Min, they are powerful demons." Zhou Yifei chased Hei Xiong to the top of the cliff, gripping his peach wood sword and slashing at the black shadows that flashed past. He then turned and answered in horror towards the bottom of the cliff.

Upon hearing this, Min shouted, "Focus on the battle! These powerful demons possess deep demonic energy, so we must not be careless. Min, go and assist Yifei."

In the chaos just now, the five Taoists chose their opponents nearby. Zhou Yifei chased after Hei Xiong; Min Wenzhi, relying on his experience in exorcising demons, faced He Bai, the most powerful of the three demons; while Su Yi was entangled by the other three young demon exorcists.

Although Zhou Yifei was considered to have a high level of Daoist cultivation, his strength was far inferior to that of the old monster Hei Xiong.

"Tsk tsk, junior, your eyesight is terrible. You only just realized I'm a great demon. Too bad, it's too late..." Hei Xiong nimbly traversed the cliffside rocks, scoffing. His dark pupils suddenly changed, instantly transforming into a pair of eerie golden vertical pupils.

Immediately afterwards, he let out a roar, clenched his fist, and attacked Zhou Yifei.

Hei Xiong's fighting style was chaotic and disorderly, with wide, sweeping punches, each carrying his immense demonic energy.

On the cliff face, transparent fists formed from demonic energy flew past like clubs, each aimed directly at Zhou Yifei. Seeing the overwhelming barrage of fists hurtling towards him, Zhou Yifei panicked. Without time to defend himself, he turned and fled at top speed.

"Hahaha, young man, you're no good..." Hei Xiong laughed triumphantly as he watched Zhou Yifei fleeing in all directions. As soon as his laughter subsided, he used his feet to gain leverage from the cliff face and pursued him relentlessly.

The battlefield was divided into three parts. Hei Xiong was playing with Zhou Yifei on the cliff, while Su Yi, at great speed, dealt with the two Taoist priests who were attacking him. Not only that, he also caught the Taoist priest who had gone to help Zhou Yifei and knocked him unconscious with a chop to the neck.

To be honest, Su Yi and his companions didn't really take the young Buddhist and Taoist cultivators seriously. Although their cultivation of primordial energy was effective against demons, they weren't afraid of the three powerful demons who had lived for countless years. In their eyes, the only one who could be considered a worthy opponent was the old Taoist priest below. Because that old Taoist knew the Void Talisman.

The other minor cultivators, lacking sufficient cultivation to draw void talismans, feared no one as long as they weren't reverted to their original forms by the void talismans.

Who are you?

Seeing his side rapidly crumbling, Min Wen frowned deeply and attacked with all his might. He opened both hands simultaneously, attacking from the left and right, and two void runes materialized the instant he reached out.

He gave a deep shout and pushed his hands forward. Two transparent void runes flew towards He Bai with overwhelming force, as if they had been flying wildly.

Upon seeing this, He Bai let out a tiger's roar and immediately dodged the attack.

"Not bad, old man." He Bai raised his eyes, looking at his opponent with great interest.

After fighting for a while, seeing that Minwen was getting serious, He Bai, who had been lazy and hadn't been using his full strength, finally became somewhat interested. Having been imprisoned for over twenty years, he hadn't stretched his muscles in a long time. It was a rare treat to encounter a decent Taoist priest; it wouldn't hurt to get some exercise on his rusty bones.
