123. Violent Slaughter

Chapter 123: Violent Slaughter

As the roaring voice echoed, a black cloud suddenly surged through the night.

Swoosh! Countless black feathers shot out from the sky, raining down like arrows toward Li Hongzhuang.

Li Hongzhuang lightly tapped her toes, floating back to avoid the steel-like black feathers.

She looked up at the massive black bird, her eyes growing more serious.

"Kill!!"

Chi Hu Jun roared, issuing the charge command.

In the distance, the ground trembled as countless demons surged forward, charging toward the checkpoint.

In front of the checkpoint stood only one crimson figure, a woman holding a sword.

Li Hongzhuang's eyes were icy cold, showing no signs of retreat. Her entire aura began to brew, like a gathering storm.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Countless flying stones and poisonous fog swiftly attacked from the forest, propelled by the demonic energy of the Fifteen Mile Realm demons, covering the camp.

Additionally, some demons emitted strange, sharp screeches, carrying soul attacks aimed at Li Hongzhuang.

A golden soul emerged behind Li Hongzhuang, forming hand seals and chanting, sending out a resonant sound that shattered the demonic techniques.

Simultaneously, the soul summoned a gust of wind to disperse the approaching poisonous fog.

Previously, when the army was present, without her defense, these demonic techniques alone would have caused heavy casualties among the troops.

Compared to the tide of demons, Li Hongzhuang's focus remained on the two great demons.

Soon, the numerous demons swarmed like rolling black smoke, a menacing beast tide covering the sky and ground, seemingly about to engulf the crimson figure.

Suddenly, the sound of a dragon's roar resounded.

The three-foot-long sword erupted with light, transforming into a giant sword that slashed through the demons, instantly decapitating countless demons, causing their bodies to explode.

However, the number of demons was overwhelming, and Li Hongzhuang was quickly surrounded. She continuously swung her sword, slashing through the demons, a golden light shielding her from various attacks.

Suddenly, a black feather hidden among the demons shot toward her.

Li Hongzhuang's eyes narrowed, having anticipated this, and she swiftly slashed with her sword, executing the Li family's Boundless Sea Sword Technique.

River-Cutting Slash!

The sword's edge was powerful enough to split the earth, severing the black feather.

At that moment, a rancid wind descended, and Chi Hu Jun, a massive tiger demon, lunged forward. Its enormous paw, as large as Li Hongzhuang's body, slammed down, crackling with purple lightning.

Li Hongzhuang quickly raised her sword to block but was still pushed back by the force.

In the air, Fei Peng, the giant bird demon, suddenly attacked, spewing golden flames faster than arrows, aimed at where Li Hongzhuang had retreated.

A golden light flashed in Li Hongzhuang's eyes as she activated another technique, Departure Flame!

Flames spontaneously erupted from her sword, slashing out to disperse the golden flames.

Just as she struck, a sharp whistle sounded, moving swiftly with a sonic boom.

From among the demons, a tusked pig demon charged.

Upon seeing this pig demon, Li Hongzhuang's pupils contracted, recognizing it as the Six-Tusked Swine, said to carry the ancient bloodline of the demon king Gong Gong.

Seizing her moment of attack, the pig demon struck with perfect timing.

Li Hongzhuang's eyes flashed with intense cold light, and she unleashed a surge of blood energy, her other hand punching out with invincible force.

It was the Half-Step Invincible Fist.

However, she hadn't fully mastered it. The true essence of the technique remained elusive to her, having not been self-realized but taught.

Boom.

Her body was knocked back, the punch neutralized, a hastily launched counter against a powerful strike. Her blood energy surged, leaving her lightly injured.

Chi Hu Jun and Fei Peng quickly followed up, not giving her a moment to breathe.

Li Hongzhuang, unable to hold back any longer, unleashed her Indestructible Power.

Having reached the third step of the Three Immortals Realm, the Indestructible Stage, she activated her indomitable power, suppressing her blood energy, unleashing a torrent of ferocious strength.

Her face cold, she realized they had deliberately revealed Fei Peng to mislead her, hiding the pig demon.

Swoosh! Suddenly, a piercing sound came from behind.

Li Hongzhuang's face changed, expecting an ambush. A quick glance revealed her surprise.

Several flying swords shot forward, aiming at the two great demons but were smashed by their strikes.

These flying swords, already damaged, couldn't withstand the strength of the great demons.

"Someone else?"

The three great demons turned to look behind them, Chi Hu Jun's expression twisted with rage. "Another brat? A Celestial Master? Seeking death!"

They saw a lone youth with a sword approaching.

"Turn over all the tents!"

Chi Hu Jun roared, ordering his demons to ensure no one was hiding, no tricks left unturned.

The demons surged into the camp, ignoring the flags planted at the borders.

Tents were torn down and destroyed in an instant.

Li Hongzhuang, seeing that it wasn't an ambush but Li Hao coming to support, her expression changed, angrily shouting, "Go back!"

Three great demons required her full attention, leaving her no room to protect Li Hao.

"No worries, you handle your part." Li Hao said calmly.

Li Hongzhuang was both angry and worried but remembered Li He was in the shadows. With him, Li Hao wouldn't be in real danger unless multiple immortals targeted him.

She focused, attacking Chi Hu Jun first.

Meanwhile, from the demon horde, several powerful figures rushed at Li Hao.

A demon resembling a cobra but in human form, a pale, beautiful woman in a black dress, seductively said to Li Hao, "Little brother, you smell so good!"

"But you stink."

Li Hao replied.

The woman's seductive smile froze, then a deep voice laughed nearby, a burly man approaching Li Hao. "I'll taste you first!"

Energy emanated from the man, forming the image of a giant ape behind him, towering like a mountain.

Li Hao glanced at Li Hongzhuang's side, then without further words, his eyes grew cold as he unleashed his aura.

His body surged with energy, Yin and Yang channels activating.

Stepping forward, the ground beneath seemed to tremble slightly.

"Hmm?!"

The burly man's face changed, astonishment showing. "What power is this?!"

Li Hao swiftly closed the distance, eyes like cold stars, and punched out!

The violent force seemed to suppress the entire battlefield's wind! An explosive sonic boom followed, smashing forward.

The burly man was terrified, his body swelling, covered in thick black fur, trying to reveal his true form, and slapped his palms toward Li Hao, shouting, "Help, something's wrong—"

Boom.

His palms shattered, blood and flesh splattering, then his massive body was pierced.

The invincible punch tore through, creating a huge hole in his body.

The giant ape demon at the Celestial Master realm was killed by Li Hao's single punch before revealing its true form!

The seductive woman's smile vanished, her pupils shrinking to slits.

Other demons also changed color, a surge of demonic wind blowing, revealing their true forms.

"What is this child?"

"A demon-possessed body?"

"Damn, let's kill him together!"

The demons, showing their terrifying forms, attacked Li Hao without holding back.

The seductive woman turned into a green-scaled viper, emitting poisonous fog, reeking and deadly, toward Li Hao.

A multi-eyed deer demon, its antlers glowing with seven-colored light, shot a radiant sword at Li Hao.

A purple-eyed bull demon, its horns glowing red, reflected Li Hao's form, using some special demonic art.

Facing the combined attacks, Li Hao didn't underestimate them. His eyes cold, he slashed with his broken sword.

The world seemed to bloom with fragrant petals, falling to the ground, then sprouting blood-red seeds, growing into manjusaka flowers.

Amidst the petals, a massive, sharp sword energy slashed out.

In an instant, the distance between Li Hao and the three demons seemed severed, the sword energy reaching them instantly.

Blood splattered as the multi-eyed deer's head was severed.

The green-scaled viper's body was cut in half.

The purple-eyed bull demon's torso was deeply sliced, but the energy weakened after cutting through the first two demons, failing to sever it completely.

Still, the three demons' terrifying momentum shattered.

The green-scaled viper's two halves writhed in agony, screaming in terror at Li Hao.

The multi-eyed deer's spirit tried to escape but was shredded by a petal-turned-sword energy.

"This isn't a Celestial Master!"

"Run, we can't fight this!"

The viper's halves fled in different directions, terrified.

The purple-eyed bull demon, its organs slipping out, hastily stuffed them back, its eyes turning from bloodthirsty to fearful and pained, fleeing.

Li Hao, having slain three demons with one strike, saw them trying to escape and pursued relentlessly.

But his movement technique was only at the second level.

However, he had a skill point.

Previously, at the Divine General Mansion, Li Hao hadn't needed to use his movement technique, but now, fighting demons at the frontier, its importance was clear.

Without hesitation, Li Hao chose to allocate the point.

Quickly, his movement technique advanced to the third level.

A surge of information flooded in, and simultaneously, his White Phoenix movement technique reached the true state!

Li Hao's body moved, as if wings had formed, enhancing his speed.
