Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

Chapter 122: Chapter 114 Holy Shadows Sect_1

Boom!

The sound of wind and thunder echoed in everyone's ears, making Wei Jiang's mind reel and bringing a sharp pain that caused him to unconsciously furrow his brows.

At this moment, countless sparks of electricity flared around Chen Yu's body, setting him off like the Thunder God descending to the mortal realm.

Boom!

Chen Yu struck out with a palm, and numerous sparks burst forth from the pores of his body, converging in mid-air into a thunderous palm print that struck towards Wei Jiang.

The power of thunder, the force of heavenly punishment, was awe-inspiring and captivating. Even though Chen Yu's palm was not as potent as the natural lightning from the heavens, its power was not to be underestimated.

This utmost yang and rigid force was the natural enemy of demons and ghosts; even nefarious demons could not evade it.

At this point, Wei Jiang could only feel the demon inside him becoming panicked, its power chaotically surging out of control, prompting him to let out a muffled grunt.

"Break!"

With a fierce shout, Wei Jiang once again wielded the Great Red Demon Saber. Now, clutched in his palm, as he swung his arm, the saber cleaved towards the thunderous palm print.

Sizzzzz!

At this instant, countless sparks of electricity surged and danced in the air. Though Wei Jiang blocked the strike with the Great Red Demon Saber, numerous sparks traveled along the saber to his body, electrocuting him into a trembling shock.

Were it not for the power of the demon possessing him, Chen Yu's palm would have certainly turned Wei Jiang into charred remains.

"Ahhhhhh——"

Wei Jiang let out a long howl to the heavens, forcibly suppressing the restless nefarious demon within him. In the face of Chen Yu's cultivation of a unique kind of Gangqi, especially one with the attributes of lightning and thunder, many of the nefarious demon's abilities were difficult to execute.

Of course, the main reason was that the nefarious demon inside him was not strong enough. If it had been a mid-stage nefarious demon that had fused with him, Chen Yu would certainly not be his match.

Alternatively, if he had also cultivated a unique kind of Gangqi, the situation would not be so passive.

Unfortunately, cultivating a unique kind of Gangqi was extremely difficult; it was rare in the world. Only someone of Chen Yu's caliber, along with certain opportunities, could succeed.

Wei Jiang knew that he could not defeat Chen Yu today. Moreover, there was even a chance that he might die by Chen Yu's hand.

Thus, making a quick decision, he shouted sharply, "Go!"

No sooner had he spoken than he turned and fled.

"You think you can come and go as you please? It's not that easy!"

Chen Yu let out a cold shout, stretching out his palm and pointing through the air, declaring, "Startled Dragon Finger!"

This Startled Dragon Finger, propelled by Chen Yu's unique Gangqi, shot forth from his fingertip as a dragon-shaped energy, surprisingly shimmering with a five-colored brilliance, truly dazzling to behold.

Seeing this, Wei Jiang's face instantly filled with shock and alarm as he cried out, "You've actually cultivated the Five Thunder Gangqi?!"

The Five Thunder Gangqi, stronger than a single elemental thunderous unique Gangqi, contained the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

The five-colored dragon-shaped energy, flickering with lightning, moved with incredible speed. With a "whoosh" it passed through the void and struck Wei Jiang.

"Pfft!"

Wei Jiang immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. Fortunately for him, the demon's power formed a black qi armor on his body's surface, bearing much of the brunt. If not for that, he would have either died or been gravely maimed by that strike.

At the same time, the nefarious demon's power surged within him, and Wei Jiang's injuries quickly began to heal.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yu remained impassive. He extended his hand and, through the void, made a fierce downward swipe.

"Five Thunder Hand!"

At this moment, the winds howled and thunder roared continuously, and five-colored lightning gathered in the void, forming a palm print several meters in size. This palm strike was like a mountain collapsing!

Wei Jiang looked frantic, mustering all his power to escape. If he had been arrogance personified earlier, now he was the epitome of downcast.

However, no matter how fast Wei Jiang was, how could he outpace lightning?

With a thunderous boom, the Five Thunder Hand struck Wei Jiang, its impact causing his bones to break and his mouth to fill with blood, flinging him far away.

Yet despite it all, Wei Jiang managed to escape, leaving only Hu Lie and the other two behind.

Indeed, it was only by abandoning Hu Lie and the others that Wei Jiang managed to save his life from Chen Yu's hands, for Huang Xiu alone could not hold back Hu Lie and the other two.

At this moment, the two elders from the Red Flame Demon Sect and Hu Lie saw Wei Jiang escape in such a sorry state, abandoning them, and their expressions changed dramatically.

Taking a deep breath, Hu Lie feigned calmness and said, "Chen Yu, since you dared to leave the county town, haven't you considered that our sect might strike against it?"

Seeing that the situation was well in hand, Chen Yu smiled indifferently and replied, "So what if you do?"

Witnessing Chen Yu's confident demeanor, Hu Lie's pupils constricted, but thinking of the power accumulated by his sect, he calmed down once again.

"If you hurry back now, you might just make it in time. If you're too late, Xu'an County's town will fall, and tens of thousands of civilians will not be spared!"

But Chen Yu was not worried, for he knew that not long before, reinforcements from the Jing Tian Department had already arrived. This time, Tiandu had dispatched an additional two Commanders, along with a multitude of troops, to join the town's defensive forces. There was absolutely no way for the Red Flame Demon Sect to breach the town's defenses.

Hu Lie sneered, "Do you think that the God Sect has only sent us?"

Chen Yu's expression remained cold as he replied, "No matter what, you will die today!"

Just as Chen Yu was about to make his move, two elders from the Red Flame Demon Sect suddenly shouted, "Chen Yu, if you continue to waste time here, the county city will definitely fall! Do you think those bodies from the five cities we slaughtered just disappeared? Do you really think they were all devoured by evil spirits?!"

"Leaving now is the wisest decision you can make!"

Hearing this, Chen Yu furrowed his brows, and a moment later, as if realizing something, his complexion changed and he said gravely, "The Holy Shadows Sect?"

Hu Lie gave a cold smile and said, "Correct, at least you're somewhat knowledgeable."

The Holy Shadows Sect, like the Red Flame Demon Sect, was one of the six most powerful demon cults under the Six Union God Sect. One of the Holy Shadows Sect's specialties was refining and controlling corpses.

Holding the Duster, Hu Lie spoke indifferently, "So I say, it's not too late for you to go back now. You must have heard about the methods of the Holy Shadows Sect; huge armies of corpses, coupled with the experts from our God Sect. Will the county city be able to hold out?"

More than three hundred years ago, when heroes from all over the world climbed the main altar of the Six Union God Sect, the Holy Shadows Sect should have completely ceased to exist. In that battle, they suffered heavy losses. It could be said they were the most devastated among the six demon cults; not a single one of their high-ranking leaders survived.

What Chen Yu hadn't expected was that despite this, the tradition of the Holy Shadows Sect had somehow continued.

The fact that the Jing Tian Department had deployed three commanders was already an unprecedented event in recent years, displaying enough attention to the Six Union God Sect. Yet, he hadn't expected the God Sect to be so thoroughly prepared.

Among the six major demon cults, not only had the Red Flame Demon Sect and the Holy Shadows Sect been resurrected; it could be assumed that the other four were likely the same.

Chen Yu simply couldn't imagine, even with the constant build-up of strength in the shadows, the Six Union God Sect had been defeated for so long, who had managed to integrate them once again, and who had the power to do so?

Moreover, what puzzled Chen Yu was why the Red Flame Demon Sect would join forces with the Holy Shadows Sect?

After all, the Six Union God Sect was a demonic sect, and the relationships between its six major demon cults weren't particularly good. In fact, they could be described as extremely poor; they fought over power and harbored contradictions, seldom uniting in action.

This was also a crucial reason why the Six Union God Sect's main altar was able to be breached back then.

If all six demon cults under its command had worked together, it wouldn't have been easy for the world to ascend the main altar and annihilate them, especially after the leader of the Six Union God Sect was injured.

But now was not the time to think about these things.

"Even so, I can kill all of you in an instant, it's not too late to rush back after killing you," Chen Yu said.

At the sound of Chen Yu's words, Hu Lie and the others immediately turned pale and started to run.

"Dragon Capturing Hand!"

Chen Yu let out a cold shout, his fingers fluttered and curved into claws, and from his palm emanated a terrifying suction force that pulled the three from the Red Flame Demon Sect closer to him.

The three had terror in their eyes, screaming continuously, but they couldn't break free from the confinement of the Dragon Capturing Hand. They felt an incredibly strong suction force coming from Chen Yu's palm, like a whirlpool in the heart of the sea, holding them tight. At the same time, the Gang Qi in their bodies was draining continuously, flowing into Chen Yu.

The eyes of the three from the Red Flame Demon Sect were filled with fear; they realized Chen Yu was absorbing their cultivation. No wonder Chen Yu's strength had progressed so rapidly, allowing him to become the youngest commander of the Jing Tian Department.

Chen Yu's expression was stern as the cultivation of the three flowed continuously from his palm into his body, then filtered by the Five-Thunder Gang Qi within him to remove impurities. The refined essence was merged with his own Gang Qi, gradually enhancing his cultivation.

"As a commander of the Jing Tian Department, you actually practice such evil techniques?!" the three enragedly shouted.

But Chen Yu remained unfazed, continuing to drain the cultivation of the three unceasingly. Soon, they became weak, their cultivation completely absorbed by Chen Yu.

Chen Yu casually tossed the three aside; after absorbing their cultivation, he was a step closer to reaching the level of a True Person.

Of course, despite this, the distance to achieving the state of a True Person was still significant for Chen Yu at this moment.

Thinking of the possibility that the Demon Sect might be attacking the county city, Chen Yu had no desire to linger any longer. With Huang Xiu there, the rest of the Red Flame Demon Sect's martial artists posed no threat.

Worried about changes in the county city, after giving a few orders, his figure flashed and he disappeared from the spot.

On the other side, Gu Chen and others, upon seeing Chen Yu's display of divine might, felt relieved as he killed or chased away the four Gang Qi Stage warriors of the demon cult.

At the same time, Gu Chen also took note of the so-called "unusual Gang Qi" that Chen Yu had just demonstrated, finding it greatly intriguing.

However, currently being only at the External Qi Stage himself, these matters were still premature for him.

In this ambush set by the Red Flame Demon Sect at the Kunyuan Sect's mountain gate, there were a total of twenty Vajra Stage warriors, but only two had merged with demon spirits.

This indicated that even within the Six Union God Sect, not just anyone could merge with demon spirits; compatibility was extremely important.

Although the enemy had far more Vajra Stage warriors than Gu Chen's side, they still had Huang Xiu. Despite Huang Xiu's serious injuries, he was not something Vajra Stage warriors could contend with.

However, Huang Xiu was not in a better mood after surviving death, for Cao Zhen and the other two had died.

He was now pondering how he would explain to Uncle Dingyuan, Marquis of Wuwei, and Marquis of Pingxi upon returning. The thought alone gave Huang Xiu a headache.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Gu Chen was fighting fiercely against a Vajra Stage warrior who had merged with a demon spirit. He pushed his Horizontal Training to its limit, using the Great Vajra Fist and Condensing Pulse Sword Wave against the enemy.

Even if the enemy had merged with a ghostly-grade demon spirit, they were no match for Gu Chen, whose cultivation was much superior.

Thud!

After fifty-three exchanges, Gu Chen clenched his fist, his presence as commanding as an angry Vajra, and punched through the enemy, creating a gaping, bloody hole.
