Chapter 320: Celestial Demon Seed
Atop Heavenly Mountain, sword gleams shone brilliantly, and ten thousand swords resonated in unison!
The Sword Sect Ancestor’s heart trembled. The countless treasure swords he controlled were all humming for Chu Liang at this moment, as if Chu Liang was their true master!
In terms of sword comprehension, Chu Liang had already surpassed him!
But he had never heard of such a powerful sword grandmaster!
“Sever!”
Chu Liang shouted coldly, controlling the swords with his Qi. With a wave of his hand, hundreds of treasure swords surpassing the limits of Grandmasters flew out from his storage space!
These were all immortal swords he had evolved using the flesh and blood of Demon Kings!
Hundreds of immortal swords formed an array, sword Qi crisscrossing, immortal light dense, instantly shredding the endless blood light and crushing the Blood Demon’s body into dust!
“Roar——!”
The Blood Demon raged, his bloody body reforming once more, seemingly immortal and indestructible, with a monstrous blood light behind him.
His aura was violent, wanting to rush over and tear Chu Liang and Qin Zong to pieces.
But Chu Liang’s expression was stern, and he pointed his finger.
“Sever again!”
The immortal swords hummed, their sword intent vast and mighty!
The resplendent sword light covered the sky and tore through the void, crushing everything in its path, once again shredding the Blood Demon’s body!
“Go!”
Chu Liang grabbed Qin Zong and struck her with his palm, forcibly interrupting her life-burning secret technique.
His figure flashed, bringing Qin Zong to the edge of the great formation. He took out several immortal pills, dissolved their medicinal power, and infused it into her meridians.
Qin Zong was on the verge of death, but he had forcefully pulled her back from the brink!
Her eyes regained their clarity, and she gazed at Chu Liang, immediately saying, “Thank you, Fellow Daoist!”
“You’re welcome, it was nothing.” Chu Liang’s voice was calm.
“I also ask Fellow Daoist to take action and save the Northern Desert Fist Sect.”
“He is already dead, his life force extinguished.”
Chu Liang had already sensed that the Fist Sect Grandmaster who had been struck into the ground had a shattered body, his bones and internal organs crushed into countless pieces, his life fire already extinguished.
Thus, of the eight Grandmasters, three had already perished.
Hearing this, the remaining Grandmasters all wore expressions of grief.
Life and death were fated, and they had all come prepared to die.
“May I ask your name, Fellow Daoist?” the Sword Sect Ancestor asked.
“Chu Yunyang,” Chu Liang replied.
“So it’s the Yangzhou Saber Sovereign!”
Everyone was enlightened, and then shocked.
This grandmaster, renowned for his saber skills, actually possessed such profound attainments in the sword as well, almost to the point of being the number one swordsman in the world!
With him here, the battle to exterminate the demon today had a few more chances of success.
Chu Liang had already stabilized Qin Zong’s life force.
He slowly turned around, his expression grave, his deep gaze fixed on the center of the great formation.
“The Blood Demon, how could it be him…”
In the central area of the great formation, the immortal sword array controlled by Chu Liang repeatedly destroyed the Blood Demon’s body. The brilliant immortal light and the terrifying blood light clashed, firmly suppressing the Blood Demon.
Every time he was shredded by the immortal light, the Blood Demon’s aura would weaken slightly.
The other Grandmasters present were all filled with hope.
But Chu Liang felt no joy in his heart.
The Blood Demon’s face was precisely the face of the frail scholar, Xu Wenyan!
Back then, when Chu Liang was illuminated by the Reincarnation Stone’s light and arrived in this world a hundred years ago, the first person he met was Xu Wenyan.
The two had traveled together, drinking in towers, and considered each other brothers.
“Xu Wenyan, do you still remember me?” Chu Liang shouted, his voice like thunder, shaking the four directions.
“You…”
The Blood Demon’s voice was hoarse, his hair disheveled.
He slowly raised his head, his eyes blood-red. The moment he saw Chu Liang, his body suddenly trembled, and a trace of pain appeared on his twisted face.
Chu Liang also looked at him, his brows furrowed, many questions flashing through his mind.
Could it be that the Blood Demon had devoured Xu Wenyan and was using his appearance?
Or perhaps…
Was the Blood Demon actually Xu Wenyan?
Atop Heavenly Mountain, the atmosphere was heavy. The other Grandmasters all stopped their attacks, having noticed the anomaly.
“Ah——”
The Blood Demon suddenly let out a shrill cry.
His expression was sometimes pained, sometimes crazed, as if he were suffering the most unbearable torment in the world.
◈◈◈
The blood light began to weaken, and the countless blood shadows around them also writhed and howled. In an instant, the entire peak of Heavenly Mountain seemed to transform into purgatory, the piercing, shrill cries filling the entire sky and earth.
“Brother Chu, kill me quickly, quickly!”
The Blood Demon cried out in pain, tears of blood rolling down from his eyes.
His body trembled, as if he were desperately trying to control something.
Hearing this, the other Grandmasters were shocked.
This Blood Demon actually knew Chu Liang?
Wasn’t he a visitor from beyond the heavens, a fiend from another realm?
“Brother Chu, do it quickly!”
The Blood Demon roared, his aura fluctuating, the blood light flickering.
Suddenly, as if he could no longer control himself, he exploded with a boom, transforming into a dense sea of blood.
The sea of blood surged, and blood Qi soared to the heavens!
Above the sea of blood, the dense blood water condensed into ferocious terrifying monsters, roaring and charging towards Chu Liang and the other Grandmasters.
Chu Liang’s expression was calm, and he shouted, “Everyone, come here and protect Qin Zong!”
“Alright!”
The remaining Grandmasters quickly gathered, each guarding a direction.
Chu Liang released the puppet giant.
With his current insight, he could naturally see that although the puppet giant’s strength surpassed the limits of Grandmasters, it had not yet crossed the threshold of the Immortal Path, still lacking something.
But even so, he was the strongest here besides Chu Liang!
Chu Liang surveyed his surroundings and said in a deep voice, “Everyone, hold on for a moment, I will go to the center of the blood sea and meet the Blood Demon.”
The Sword Sect Ancestor immediately advised, “Saber Sovereign, the Blood Demon may not be the person you know!”
The Northern Desert Spear Sect Grandmaster also said, “The Blood Demon is cunning and treacherous, he is likely just pretending to be your friend!”
“Don’t worry, everyone!”
Chu Liang did not explain further.
His gaze was deep, fixed on the sea of blood, and then he drew the long saber from his back.
“Clang——!”
Saber beams overflowed, cold light flashed, and the entire sky and earth seemed to gain a sharper aura.
Boom!
Chu Liang struck out with his saber, the saber light tearing through the void, instantly splitting into thousands.
With just one strike, he annihilated all the blood sea monsters and carved out a path of saber Qi leading straight to the depths of the blood sea.
The other Grandmasters were shaken by the sight. This level of strength had already exceeded the limits of their imagination, opening up another world for them!
Chu Liang’s figure flashed, saber Qi crisscrossing around him, and in an instant, he charged into the center of the blood sea.
Around him, the sea of blood slowly converged, isolating him from the outside world.
“Brother Chu!”
In the depths of the blood sea, a frail figure appeared. It was Xu Wenyan!
His expression was urgent, and he pleaded, “Brother Chu, I was controlled by an external force, unable to control myself, causing a monstrous blood calamity. I have no words to face the people of the world, and now I only seek death! I can only maintain clarity for a moment, I beg Brother Chu to grant my wish!”
Chu Liang gazed at him and asked, “What exactly happened? Tell me.”
“Brother Chu, look…”
Xu Wenyan pointed a finger, sending his past memories to Chu Liang through his spiritual power.
Chu Liang carefully examined all the memories and immediately understood everything.
The cause and effect of this matter were not complicated.
But there were still questions.
What was that blood light that descended from the sky?
Why did Xu Wenyan’s strength increase so rapidly?
“Could it be that the demons recorded in the history books were all formed in this way?” Chu Liang mused.
In Xu Wenyan’s memories, when he was enveloped by the blood light, he still had a trace of clarity.
At that time, he only wanted revenge. After his strength greatly increased, he used many methods of torture to torment the young master of the Han family until his soul dissipated.
After his revenge was fulfilled, he could no longer control this body and completely became a demon who only knew how to kill.
Just then, the Evolutionary Appraisal Mirror in Chu Liang’s mind suddenly lit up, transmitting a message.
