Chapter 16

Yue Qing released the Six Ding Six Jia divine spirits, which were extremely ferocious and possessed mysterious and boundless magical powers. Master Canxia, surrounded by six of these spirits, found herself in a panic, hurriedly unleashing the Lihe Divine Light to protect her primordial spirit. The divine spirits all transformed and fled into the divine light, turning the originally golden Lihe Divine Light into a dark red, rapidly permeating it, looking extremely menacing!

Additionally, Masters Yuanyuan and Wu Yuanzhi were each entangled by three demonic heads. Unlike ordinary beings, these demonic heads existed in a state between substance and non-substance, making them immune to ordinary flying swords and magical treasures.

Wu Wenqi, Wang Juanjuan, and Lei Que'e, seeing Huang Qian escape, and Wu Yuanzhi's flying sword failing to reach him, immediately flew after him.

Yue Qing shouted, "Are you going to exterminate everyone?" Two flying swords merged into a silver streak, slashing diagonally.

Among the three younger disciples, Lei Que'e had the longest cultivation time and the highest attainments. Recognizing the severity, he quickly released his flying sword to intercept and called out to the two women, "The demon is powerful; don't chase the fleeing demon!"

Lei Que'e's flying sword was a dark, oily light. When it met Yue Qing's silver sword light, his hand controlling the sword spell almost suffocated. Realizing that his opponent's attainments far surpassed his own, he dared not be negligent, took a deep breath, and channeled all his energy into the sword, making it hum and charge forward fiercely.

However, just as he exerted his strength, Yue Qing's flying sword suddenly split into two, the two silver lights flying past his sword on either side. He felt his hand lighten, and then silver stars burst before his eyes. Before he could react, he felt intense pain in his shoulders, and both his arms were severed at the roots by Yue Qing's flying sword. He screamed in agony and fell downward.

At the same time, Lei Que'e's flying sword slashed toward Yue Qing but was blocked by the Taiyi Five Smoke Net. He let out a long whistle, released both his swords, and engaged Wang Juanjuan and Wu Wenqi in fierce battle. These two girls had not been cultivating for long, and their attainments were shallow. They lacked experience in sword battles, and within a few moves, they were in grave danger, with Wang Juanjuan's hairpin being cut off by Yue Qing.

Lei Que'e's scream caught the attention of the three above. Yue Qing, having injured Lei Que'e and forced back the two women, did so in the blink of an eye. Wu Yuanzhi, who had just used the Wind and Fire Divine Dragon to fend off the attacking demonic heads, saw his disciple's defeat and was furious, knowing that the two women were no match for Yue Qing. He wanted to go to their aid but was entangled by three demonic heads and dared not be careless.

Only Master Yuanyuan, with her powerful magical abilities, managed to repel the three demonic heads and had the strength to fly down and engage Yue Qing in sword battle.

Yue Qing was pressing Wu Wenqi and Wang Juanjuan, his two flying swords darting around their bodies, flashing silver light, cutting off Wu Wenqi's sleeve or Wang Juanjuan's trouser leg. The two women screamed in terror, unable to fight back or escape, and could only call out to their master for help.

"Stop your arrogance, demon!" Master Yuanyuan shouted, her Qingni Sword transforming into a deep blue light, shooting toward Yue Qing's back.

"The old hag not only bullies the weak but also attacks from behind! This is your usual tactic, but I'm not afraid of you!" As the Qingni Sword shot toward him, Yue Qing split one of his flying swords to block it. Master Yuanyuan sneered, and the Qingni Sword suddenly split into nearly 200,000 steel needles, exploding in all directions!

Seeing Yue Qing seemingly unprepared, about to be pierced by the needles, a silver light flashed, and he merged with his sword, narrowly escaping and flying toward Wu Yuanzhi.

Master Yuanyuan shouted, "Junior brother, be careful!" She wanted to come to his aid but was entangled by the three demonic heads.

Wu Yuanzhi, already struggling against the three demonic heads, saw Yue Qing suddenly attack. He used his remaining strength to block with his two flying swords. Yue Qing then took out the Five Ghosts Soul-Stealing Banner, releasing a torrent of black gas to envelop Wu Yuanzhi.

"Junior brother!" Master Canxia and Master Yuanyuan both risked being attacked by the demonic heads to come to his aid. One released the Demon-Subduing Divine Needles, and the other activated the Ten Thousand Blades Divine Edge. Countless blade lights and needle shadows rained down like a storm.

Yue Qing's flying sword tangled with Wu Yuanzhi's, and he waved the small banner, using secret spells to drive the demonic spirits to envelop Wu Yuanzhi, both of them falling into the surging demonic mist below.

Master Canxia joined her hands, and the Lihe Divine Light transformed into a column of light dozens of feet high, piercing through the demonic mist.

Yue Qing, anticipating this, activated the Duntia Qimen formation as soon as he entered the demonic mist, constantly changing his position.

Wu Yuanzhi, having followed the Long Eyebrow Immortal for several hundred years, had deep attainments. Upon falling into the demonic mist, he used the Shaqing Divine Light to protect his primordial spirit, a clear, water-like light surrounding his body. The Shaqing Secret Manual of the Emei Sect specialized in subduing demons and exorcising evil, and the Shaqing Divine Light was particularly effective against demonic heads. He also waved the banana leaf fan, recalling the wind dragon and fire dragon to his side, defending himself and waiting for rescue.

"Senior Sister, what should we do?" Master Yuanyuan saw the blood mist rolling below, and despite Master Canxia's Lihe Divine Light sweeping several times, she could not see Wu Yuanzhi, growing increasingly anxious.

Seeing Master Canxia still had the strength to release the Lihe Divine Light to probe the formation, Yue Qing quickly redirected the three demonic heads attacking Master Yuanyuan to her. Master Canxia sat cross-legged in the air, her body protected by a golden light, with nine demonic heads surrounding her, trying to penetrate the Lihe Divine Light.

Master Canxia, fully engaged in fighting the demonic heads, did not respond immediately.

At that moment, a sword light flew from the cliff, landing and revealing two people. One was Huang Qian, who had escaped earlier. The basket on his back was removed, and his severed arm was crudely bandaged with a strip of cloth torn from his clothes, still bleeding in some places. In his intact right hand, he held a treasure sword.

The other was a youth of similar age, slightly taller, wearing a black and white robe, his hand forming a sword seal, directing a yellow flying sword, and shouting, "Hey! Where do you come from, you ruffians? How dare you cause trouble on Mount Zhongnan!"

Master Yuanyuan glanced at them and said to Wang Juanjuan, "Go ask them which sect they belong to and why they are with the demons. If they show remorse, let them leave. If they persist in their evil ways, we will subdue the demons for the sake of heaven!"

She could see that the two youths were recent initiates, barely able to control their flying swords. The one with the severed arm could not even use his flying sword and had been brought over by his companion. She, being of her status, did not deign to kill such people.

She no longer paid attention to the two youths and focused on observing the formation below, seeing the blood mist surging and the evil aura rising.

Yue Qing appeared in the evil aura, half his body visible: "Old hag! Your Emei Sect claims to be the orthodox of the mystic arts, considering yourselves superior. I set up the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation and killed Xu Yuan Tong. Now, with this Duntia Qimen formation, I have killed Wu Yuanzhi. If you are not convinced, come down and try it yourself, and see if I can cut off your bald head!"

Master Yuanyuan was furious, having cultivated for hundreds of years, never having been spoken to in such a manner.

The old nun, her face flushed with anger, shouted, "Demon, die!" The Qingni Sword scattered into a shower of steel needles, shooting downward.

Yue Qing raised the Taiyi Five Smoke Net above his head, transforming it into a thin mist. The steel needles hit it, causing ripples.

"Old hag! Is this all you can do? After hundreds of years of cultivation under the Long Eyebrow Immortal, is this all you've learned? You've wasted your life! If Ren Shou hadn't ascended, seeing your group of unworthy disciples, wouldn't he be ashamed to the point of death?"

Master Yuanyuan, who always had the upper hand in battles, was now facing a demon with lesser magical powers and had suffered consecutive losses. Hearing him insult her master, she was enraged: "Demon, today I will make you cease to exist!"

She suppressed her anger, took out thirty-six Shaqing Divine Talismans, which she had nurtured for over a decade in her cave, known to be the bane of evil spirits. She placed them around the hill, intending to trap Yue Qing inside.

The talismans were embedded in the ground, and as she recited her spells, they shot out a clear, bright light, forming a giant net in the sky, enveloping the entire hill. With a roar, she activated her Ten Thousand Blades Divine Edge!
