"Well, you've come at the right time. I was just looking for a place to earn some merit... Today, I will slay you, you centipede demon!"
After saying that, he squeezed his legs together, and the centipede's legs, which were as thick as a human thigh, were immediately clamped down.
As for the poison on his toes, he could neutralize it with pure Yang energy.
In the next instant, he mustered all his strength and performed a backflip.
"Boom!"
The centipede demon lurking underground was thrown up from the ground...
Chen Yi, suspended in mid-air, leaned back, his gaze fixed on the enormous centipede demon.
It is clearly visible that it is missing two legs.
"Whoosh!"
Chen Yi flicked his fingers wildly, and eighty-one sword pellets scattered in all directions.
"Clang!"
Sword energy rained down.
The Three Thousand Heavenly River Sword Formation, capable of killing Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, has finally met its first victim.
The centipede demon's hard exoskeleton was instantly covered in slash marks...
The sword energy seemed endless and moved at incredible speed.
Furthermore, eerie flames will grow at the wound site, making the injury even more severe.
This is the effect of Chen Yi adding the Nine Yin Earth Fire True Spirit Qi to the sword formation.
The two combined, and the centipede demon was immediately in excruciating pain, its entire body curling up in agony.
Liu Qing arrived at this moment, but did not approach easily.
Chen Yi's sword formation alone made him feel a slight unease...
"When did this kid's physical body become so powerful?" Liu Qing found it hard to understand.
It should be noted that Chen Yi had never asked him to buy medicine.
If others knew that Chen Yi had never bought his medicine, yet still managed to hone his physical body to such a powerful state, how would he make money?
"cut!"
Chen Yi roared.
The sword energy of the Three Thousand Heavenly River Sword Formation converged into one, and suddenly pierced into the centipede demon's head.
Sword energy raged within his skull...
The centipede demon convulsed violently a few times, its limbs flailing wildly, but it couldn't withstand the fatal wound left by the sword energy. Its body stiffened, and it died.
Ma Guangzhi's face lit up with joy, and the soul banner began to wave continuously.
"call!"
A gust of black wind swept through, and the centipede demon's soul was drawn into the soul banner.
This time, he made up for all the losses he had suffered in fighting the river monster, and even made a small profit.
"Hahaha! Well done, Chen Yi!" he laughed and exclaimed. "The centipede demon's corpse is yours!"
Chen Yi had no objection to this.
Anyway, he doesn't care about soul cultivation, so it doesn't matter if the dead soul is gone.
However, although the flesh of this centipede demon is highly poisonous and inedible, its outer armor is a good material for refining weapons.
If it were forged into a suit of armor, it would probably be worth a million.
Thinking of this, he immediately clasped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you, Principal Ma!"
Then, amidst the envious gazes of the crowd, he collected the centipede demon's corpse.
After killing the centipede demon, Chen Yi's battle merits increased by 100 points, reaching 665 points.
"We're getting closer and closer to the thousandth mark. Without any more array pillars to repair, we'll have to rely on these large shipments..."
If that demon lord hadn't triggered another earthquake, the array pillars probably wouldn't have been damaged.
The fastest way to accumulate over a thousand battle merits now is to kill demons.
In fact, Chen Yi had considered deliberately leaving some tricks on the battle formation to gain merits, but that would be too risky.
For example, right now, that river demon is manipulating rain to bombard the barrier. If there's a problem with the array pillars, everyone will be in grave danger.
Chen Yi wouldn't be so foolish as to disregard his own life and the lives of others...
"Boom!"
The failure to conquer Xiande Middle School attracted the interest of other powerful monsters.
At this moment, a water snake demon, hidden in the mist, mocked, "River fish, your water is far too weak, isn't it?"
It was quite jealous when it saw that the river monster had chosen Xiande Middle School, after all, it was a good place.
There are quite a few Foundation Establishment cultivators below, which is far better than eating the mortals in the city...
"Hmph! It's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering. You try it if you dare!" the river demon sneered.
The water serpent demon flicked its tongue, its eyes gleaming with a sharp light; this was exactly what it wanted.
"Heh! Fine, I'll do it! Get out of my way!"
Upon hearing this, the river monster opened and closed its gills several times, as if it were considering the matter.
But within seconds, it moved its short, stout body.
The water serpent demon suddenly grew to a massive size, its gaping maw large enough to swallow a villa whole.
"Whoosh!"
The water snake's fangs sprayed out large amounts of venom.
The venom dripped down like poisoned arrows, shooting towards the barrier below.
"Hiss hiss hiss!"
The venom corroded small pits on the surface of the barrier.
Logically, as long as it absorbs the surrounding spiritual energy, the barrier should be continuously repaired.
However, this venom slowed down the repair of the barrier...
A strange light flashed in the water snake's eyes, and it muttered to itself: So that's how it is.
Having said that, it said to the river fish, "River fish, if you want to break this formation, then you must join me in destroying the spiritual energy of this world!"
Upon hearing this, the river fish's eyes darted around a few times, and it nodded its head, saying, "Why didn't I think of that?"
The two demons reached a cooperation agreement, letting the smaller ones hold the line for now.
They together destroy the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Spiritual energy is the power source for the formation to operate. If the spiritual energy source is damaged, the formation will be unable to function properly.
Ma Guangzhi initially didn't know what they were secretly discussing, but when he saw the two demons releasing poisonous gas that polluted the spiritual energy, he immediately understood.
They absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into their bodies while simultaneously releasing demonic energy to pollute it. They also use demonic magic to drive away the spiritual energy in the vicinity, employing a three-pronged approach to render the defensive barrier ineffective!
"Damn it, do these two beasts think this school doesn't exist?" Ma Guangzhi then ordered, "Spiritual energy is polluted. Stop the formation from absorbing spiritual energy from heaven and earth to replenish its energy. Use spirit stones to hold it off for now!"
He gritted his teeth and pulled out a delicate, small short sword.
This short sword is only about 30 to 40 centimeters long, and its material is quite extraordinary.
But what deserves the most attention is the intricate pattern on its blade.
Yes, these patterns were indeed the work of that Golden Core cultivator...
Now that the formation is on the verge of collapse, Ma Guangzhi has no choice but to resort to this tactic.
Fortunately, activating the sword talisman once can kill two perfected great demons, so it's not too bad!
He quickly recited the incantation to awaken the sword talisman.
"Buzz!"
After a few breaths, the runes on the short sword seemed to come alive.
"call out!"
The sword broke free from Ma Guangzhi's control and flew towards the barrier light screen.
In the blink of an eye, it left the barrier.
The two demons, who were polluting the spiritual energy, suddenly felt a pang of fear.
Before they could react, a short sword pierced through their left brain and exited through their right brain.
"puff!"
A small hole, about the width of a coin, appeared in both enormous heads, and blood oozed out of it...
Logically speaking, this small wound is nothing to two such huge monsters; it can be healed by simply sacrificing one's vital energy.
But they remained unmoved, as silent as if they were dead.
A few seconds later, the two enormous beast corpses crashed onto the barrier and then bounced to the ground.
"Waaah!"
On campus, teachers and students who witnessed this scene couldn't help but shout.
"What is that short sword? Why is it so powerful?"
"That's not a short sword, that's a sword talisman, said to have been obtained by the school board and bestowed upon Principal Ma to guard our school..."
Chen Yi stared intently at the short sword that had returned to Ma Xiao's hand, as if he were plotting something.
"The power of this sword talisman is truly terrifying! If I could observe it closely, it would surely be of great benefit to my understanding of talismanic arts!"
