I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 694

Chapter 694: Demon Blood Soul Banner, Sword Beheads the Demon

“What else can you do? Unless you can break this formation, how can you withstand that massive palm strike?”

the eerily handsome man asked.

The other three demons paused.

They recalled the terrifying might of that massive palm strike. Honestly, even if the four of them joined forces,

they might not be able to withstand it. Not to mention, there was Lu Xiaoyan, a threatening figure, staring down from below.

If a fight truly broke out, no one could guarantee how it would end.

Furthermore…

the demons exchanged secret glances.

The four demons had come together solely out of self-interest.

To claim any friendship or trust between them was out of the question.

On the contrary, given the opportunity, they wouldn’t mind devouring any of their opponents.

So, if anyone were seriously injured during the battle, they had no doubt the other three would devour them without hesitation.

Thinking of this, the four demons, each with their own agenda, hesitated.

They had come together this time because they were certain the Holy Mountain could not stop them.

Now that the situation has changed, they must reconsider the risks.

Otherwise, instead of receiving the benefits, they’ll be ambushed, ultimately ending up annihilated.

“So, we have no choice but to retreat?” the Eagle Demon asked.

“Let’s retreat. There’s no point staying here any longer, and we have to be wary of these so-called righteous people plotting against us.

After all, we have a long way to go. Now that our cultivation has recovered to the late Jindan stage, no one in the world can stop us,”

said another demonic figure.

“But if we can’t obtain the Holy Mountain Soul, we’ll have to wait until the final sound of the Heavenly Dao resounds, and our spiritual energy undergoes another transformation. And that, who knows how many more years it will take,” said the fourth demon.

“I have a plan,” the eerily handsome man suddenly said.

“Xie Feng, what do you have?”

The other three demons immediately turned their gazes on him.

“The only thing this holy mountain can rely on right now is the power of its formation. If we can find a way to break it, Fairy Lu and the remaining unknowns won’t be able to stop us.”

“Break the formation? This formation looks quite extraordinary. I’m afraid it can’t be that easy to break, right?” the Eagle Demon questioned.

“Ordinary methods are naturally difficult to break, but what if we have the Demonic Blood Soul Banner?” The eerily handsome man smiled faintly.

“Demonic Blood Soul Banner! Xie Feng, are you thinking…” The Eagle Demon was suddenly startled.

The other two demons looked at the eerie and handsome man with similar surprise.

“Indeed, the Demonic Blood Soul Banner can defile any great formation. If we can refine it, breaking the formation on this sacred mountain won’t be difficult.”

“But refining the Demonic Blood Soul Banner requires a considerable number of living beings. You’re not thinking…”

“Isn’t that perfect? Now that our cultivation has reached the late Jindan stage, no one in the world can stop us.

As long as we refine the Demonic Blood Soul Banner, break the formation on this sacred mountain, absorb the mountain spirit, and return to the Yuan Shen realm,

then our demonic dao will reign supreme in this world, and the so-called righteous path will be forever a thing of the past.”

Seeing the smile on the eerily handsome man’s face, the other three demons felt a sense of inexplicable fear in their hearts.

Although they were fellow demon cultivators, they had never known that Xie Feng had such a ruthless side.

What the Demonic Blood Soul Banner was, and the number of living beings required was truly terrifying.

Even in the previous era of immortal cultivation, few great demons dared to refine such a thing.

“Is it the devouring of other demon cultivators’ Primordial Spirits over the past tens of thousands of years that has caused Xie Feng’s temperament to change so drastically?” The Eagle Demon thought to himself.

“Three of you, you’re not thinking of retreating, are you? You must think clearly. If we can’t seize the Mountain Soul, we won’t be able to recover to the Primordial Spirit Realm in a short period of time. We can only slowly wait for the spiritual energy to recover.

But you should also know that we, the demonic path, are ultimately not tolerated by the will of Heaven.

Who knows if, while we wait, some evil genius will rise up with the destiny of heaven and earth and come to stop us? Didn’t

such things happen often during the struggle between good and evil in the last era of immortal cultivation?

You don’t want to become the son of a lucky Taoist. “A stepping stone, right?

Only by using thunderous means can we break this sacred mountain formation and seize the mountain soul.

Once we refine the mountain soul and return to the realm of the primordial spirit, we may truly control the world.

If we transform righteousness into evil, transforming the entire world into a world of demonic cultivation, even the will of Heaven will be demonized by us!

Then, the path of evil will become the path of righteousness, and perhaps we can use this opportunity to advance even further

, breaking through to a supreme realm unreached by anyone in the previous era of immortal cultivation!”

The enchantingly handsome man’s words stunned the three demons.

They had never imagined that this evil wind had such ambitions.

He actually wanted to transform righteousness into evil and defy the laws of Heaven!

But they had to admit, they were all persuaded by the evil wind.

If they truly achieved that goal, perhaps they could truly break through the barrier that had eluded all the great powers in the previous era of immortal cultivation and ascend to an unprecedented supreme realm!

“Haha, you evil wind! I didn’t expect you to have such ambitions. I underestimated you before.”

The Eagle Demon suddenly laughed.

“But your suggestion is a good one. Transforming good into evil and changing the laws of nature is what we demon cultivators should really do. Refining the Demonic Blood Soul Banner, huh? Count me in!”

The remaining two demons exchanged glances and finally nodded in unison.

“Count us in too! As long as we can break this formation, refining a few living beings won’t matter!”

Seeing the three demons agree, the eerily handsome man gave a strange smile. “Since that’s the case, then there’s no time to lose. Let’s get started. First, let’s make a blood sacrifice at the Holy City at the foot of the mountain!”

“Haha, that’s a great idea! Isn’t this Holy Mountain known as the pinnacle of righteousness? Let’s refine living beings right in front of them and see if they dare to come out and fight against

demons and defend the Way!” The Eagle Demon’s face lit up with excitement as he flew down first.

The other three demons followed closely behind.

Because the Eagle Demon and his companions had been blocking out their conversation, the First Saint Lord and his companions hadn’t heard anything.

Seeing the four demons suddenly leave, they were all surprised.

“These demons retreated so easily?”

The First Saint Lord had just begun to think of this when, upon seeing the direction the Eagle Demon and his companions were heading, a sense of foreboding suddenly seized him.

“Oh no! Those demons are heading for the Holy City!”

Late Jindan-stage warriors were naturally extremely fast. By the time the First Saint Lord and the others realized the demons’ destination, they had already reached the Holy City.

“Wait a minute! Let me make the first move!”

The Eagle Demon waved his hand, and a vortex of demonic energy suddenly appeared above the Holy City, generating a powerful suction force, attempting to absorb the lives of the residents.

“Alright, then, we’ll give you a raid, Eagle Demon.”

The other three demons were not in a hurry, but stopped to the side to observe the Eagle Demon’s performance.

Of course, they were more concerned about the Holy Mountain.

If the First Saint Lord and his companions could no longer bear it and intervened, they would be able to capture them immediately.

The demonic energy vortex descended rapidly, on the verge of engulfing the city.

But at that moment, a light barrier of formations rose within the Holy City, barely blocking the Eagle Demon’s demonic energy vortex.

“Hmm, they’ve even restored this city’s formation?”

The Eagle Demon’s eyes flickered with surprise.

The Holy City had existed since the previous era of immortal cultivation, and he was naturally familiar with it.

Back then, it had been protected by a great formation, otherwise it wouldn’t have survived for so long.

He hadn’t imagined that the formation within the city could still be activated after such a long time.

“Is this the work of that brat known as the world’s number one?”

The Eagle Demon’s heart trembled, and his expression grew serious.

He had always scorned the so-called world’s number one,

believing that they hadn’t yet recovered, and that this brat had become famous.

But now, twice in a row, he’d been thwarted by the boy’s back-up plan, forcing him to truly take this potential adversary seriously.

“Luckily, that boy has left this world. If he hadn’t, he would have been an incredibly formidable foe.”

A flicker of relief flashed through the Eagle Demon’s mind, and then his gaze grew fierce.

“However, while this city defense formation is powerful, there aren’t many experts within the city. You can’t hold it!”

With Xie Feng and the others watching nearby, the Eagle Demon naturally refused to give up so easily.

Immediately, his mana surged, and the vortex of demonic energy instantly doubled in size, crushing downward.

“Hold on, hold on, or everyone will die!”

Within the Holy City, the Master of the Heavenly Secret Tower had lost his former sagely demeanor.

He now exuded the aura of a Golden Core Realm cultivator, his face blood-red. He stood at the most crucial point within the Holy City’s defense formation, exerting all his might to maintain the entire city defense formation.

Behind him, besides Lin Zhirui and other disciples of the Tianji Tower, powerful figures from various other factions within the Holy City had also gathered to help maintain the formation.

It was precisely when the Four Demons descended upon the Holy Mountain that the city’s powerful figures, summoned by the Tianji Tower Master, had gathered. Their

goal was to safeguard the Holy City through the protective formation.

Upon hearing the Tianji Tower Master’s words and feeling the terrifying might of the demonic energy vortex in the sky,

all the Holy City masters, needless to say, mobilized their utmost strength, channeling it into the center of the formation.

Otherwise, when the demonic energy vortex descended, none of them would survive.

Despite the desperate efforts of the Tianji Tower Master and all the other Holy City masters, the Eagle Demon’s demonic energy vortex, though weighing down the formation’s light curtain, failed to break through the defenses and truly descend upon the city.

“Stopped!”

Seeing the demonic energy vortex blocked, the Holy City masters rejoiced.

Even the Tianji Tower Master breathed a sigh of relief.

He rejoiced, “Thank goodness, Lord Lu Qing restored the Holy City’s formation back then. Otherwise, the entire Holy City would be devastated today.”

However, the Tianji Tower Master knew it was far from time to truly relax.

After all, only one demon had taken action, and three more had yet to take action.

“I hope the Holy Lord and the others can find a solution,”

the Tianji Tower Master could only pray inwardly.

“Eagle Demon, are you able to do this? Do you need help?”

Seeing the Eagle Demon unable to break through the city’s protective formation, one of the demonic figures spoke up.

“Bullshit, how can I not do this?” The Eagle Demon, upon hearing this, suddenly flew into a rage. “It’s just a formation orchestrated by a Jindan Initial Stage cultivator and a bunch of Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators! Look, I’ll break it now!”

Before he could finish his words, the Eagle Demon unleashed a burst of demonic energy, which landed in the demonic vortex below.

Instantly, the demonic vortex doubled in size, crushing the Holy City’s formation light curtain with a series of shattering sounds.

“Oh no! The formation is about to break!”

The Tianji Tower Master and the others were suddenly alarmed.

“Death to you   , evil demon! “

At this moment, a cold shout suddenly resounded through the heavens and earth.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling sword light, with the force to split heaven and earth, slashed from the Holy Mountain, slicing towards the Eagle Demon’s body. “Oh no! This sword light…”   The three eerily handsome men who had been standing by with their hands behind their backs, eager to watch the Eagle Demon break the formation, all paled when they sensed the aura of the sword.   Without a second thought, they scattered like startled rabbits, dodging to the sides.   Their earlier talk of slicing through the formation was long forgotten.   With no one to stop them, the sword light slashed towards the Eagle Demon with lightning speed.   ”These three bastards!”   The Eagle Demon, who was energizing the vortex of demonic energy with all his might, was caught off guard by this sudden change and was a beat too slow to react.   He only had time to deflect slightly before being struck by the sword light.   This time, Xiaoyan’s sword radiance surged tenfold in power.   Even with the Eagle Demon’s impressive form, he couldn’t block the sword’s radiance as before.   The demonic energy emanated, and his body was cleaved in two!   ”Ah!”   The Eagle Demon couldn’t help but scream in agony at the devastating blow.   In panic, the two halves of his body transformed into streams of light and fled into the distance.   At this point, the Eagle Demon could no longer care about refining the Demonic Blood Soul Banner.

He was very clear about the temperaments of the three fellow Taoists beside him.

He was currently suffering a severe injury, and if he didn’t flee quickly, he would be devoured by the three of them.

As expected, when they saw the Eagle Demon being cut in half by the sword light, a trace of greed flashed in the eyes of the three strange and handsome men.

They were about to chase after him, but they saw that the sword light that had severely injured the Eagle Demon did not dissipate, but instead nimbly turned back and slashed towards the three of them.

Seeing this scene, the three strange and handsome men were suddenly shocked.

They had seen clearly what had happened to the Eagle Demon just now.

Even the Eagle Demon was completely unable to withstand this terrifying sword light. They, who were of similar strength, would probably find it difficult to withstand it.

Immediately, the three demons no longer cared about chasing the Eagle Demon, and they all used their skills to dodge the sword light.

Finally, after each of them suffered considerable damage, the three demons finally broke free from the entanglement of the sword light and used their skills to escape far away. (End of this chapter)
