Chapter 107

A golden figure arrived in an instant.

This Daoist named Shi Longzi carried an extremely dense aura of Geng Metal, making him dazzlingly radiant, like a great sun.

The moment he appeared, the entire void was filled with the aura of Geng Metal, making it somewhat difficult to breathe.

In an instant, Fang Yu determined that this Shi Longzi was a true disciple of the Yuhua Sect who cultivated the Great Metal Divine Ability, and his cultivation realm was far more formidable than Jin Jin Shitai's.

The Yuhua Sect's Eight Great Divine Abilities—Purple Lightning Yin Thunder Blade, Emerald Flame Seven Repair Radiance, Great Freedom Mysterious Metal Sword Qi, Heavenly Cold Mysterious Darkness Force, Heavenly Wood Great Art, Ten Thousand Water Divine Art—only true disciples could cultivate them.

The Shi Longzi before them had clearly cultivated one of the Yuhua Sect's Eight Great Divine Abilities, the Great Freedom Mysterious Metal Sword Qi. He didn't know how many times the speed of sound it had reached, but being able to withstand his Seven Kill Sword Formation meant it had probably reached the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities Heavenly Man Realm.

"You are an inner disciple of the Yuhua Sect? Step aside, I have something to say to Fang Qingxue."

While Fang Yu was thinking, Shi Longzi spoke from the sky.

"I don't know why Senior Brother Shi wants to kill Senior Sister Qingxue. Could it be that our Yuhua Sect is not a Xiandao Sect Sect, but a demonic sect that slaughters its own?"

Fang Yu did not step aside, still protecting himself and Fang Qingxue with the Seven Sha Gourd. "The Zhang Sect himself sent Senior Sister Qingxue to handle the matter of the Hanhai Desert this time. He must have seen through everything clearly. Every single thing you do, he has certainly calculated."

"I am not here to kill Junior Sister Fang. I only want to ask her for one thing, to have her hand it over to the sect Elder. This matter is of great importance, the key to whether the Dao prevails or the demonic grows. Even though you hold the Seven Kill Gourd, even if you gathered all seven spiritual flying swords, you could do nothing to me."

Shi Longzi spoke unhurriedly, displaying the bearing of an immortal disciple. "I am also unwilling to harm you. Junior Brother Jin was a bit hot-tempered just now. How about I gift you a flying sword as compensation?"

As he spoke, a flying sword also appeared in his hand—a spiritual flying sword as well.

A top-grade spiritual flying sword.

Fang Yu still shook his head. "Can all matters not wait until Senior Sister Qingxue wakes up to discuss? We are all true disciples of the Yuhua Sect. Even if there are conflicts, they must be resolved on Elder Tian Xing's platform, and never here."

"Boy, you mere inner disciple dare to speak like this! Senior Brother Shi, please strike and kill him. Fang Qingxue killed my eight people and eight cranes. What's wrong with Senior Brother Shi killing one inner disciple of hers?"

Jin Jin Shitai descended from the sky, fury blazing on his face, his hatred for Fang Yu reaching an extreme, wishing he could slay Fang Yu on the spot.

However, with his 2nd Stage of Divine Abilities True Qi Realm, he was fundamentally unable to deal with Fang Yu, who possessed the treasure-grade Seven Sha Gourd.

"Junior Brother, calm yourself. I truly do not wish to bully the small with the great."

Shi Longzi waved his hand.

"But—"

A trace of cold viciousness flickered in Jin Jin Shitai's eyes.

"There is no 'but.' Even if that thing is truly in Junior Sister Fang's hands, I am not very interested. The reason I listened to you and came was to meet the Demon Commander, to see this once-in-a-millennium genius of the demonic sects."

As Shi Longzi spoke calmly, he suddenly amplified his voice countless times over. A faint golden hue tinged his voice, instantly covering a radius of a hundred li.

"Ying Tianqing, I heard Junior Sister Fang is in danger, so you would come out. Now that Junior Sister Fang is in danger, you still won't come out? Do you think my Great Freedom Mysterious Metal Sword Qi cannot break through Junior Sister Fang's Purple Lightning Yin Thunder Blade?"

The endless voice continuously transmitted outward.

After a long, long time, not a single sound answered him.

"Since that is the case, I shall make my move."

Shi Longzi stepped forward.

"Shi Longzi, if you dare move a single finger, you will be doomed beyond redemption."

At that moment, a cold snort came from the sky.

"Demon Commander, you truly have come. Why not come out? Are you the type to hide your head and show your tail?"

Shi Longzi stopped in the field and spoke coldly to the sky.

"Good. Just for those four words, 'hide your head and show your tail,' you must pay the price of an arm today."

In the distant sky, streaks of white rainbows suddenly appeared, stretching north to south. Amidst a flourish of falling flowers, a man descended, stepping on a white rainbow.

This man, around twenty years of age, had a tall and upright build, a straight spine, very gentle facial lines, empty hands without a treasured sword, and a pair of eyes that regarded everything as nothing. He slowly descended amidst flowers raining from the sky.

He did not look like a man of the demonic sects, but rather like a true immortal of the Dao.

"Demon Commander."

Fang Yu looked at this young man who had arrived and knew this was the son of the Xiantian Great Emperor of the Xiantianmo Sect, one of the Qidamo Sect—Demon Commander Ying Tianqing. His current realm was unknown—perhaps the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities Heavenly Man Realm, or the 6th Stage of Divine Abilities Return to Oneness Realm, or the 7th Stage of Divine Abilities Golden Core Realm. Regardless, it was not something Shi Longzi could withstand.

Shi Longzi using Fang Qingxue as bait to force Ying Tianqing to appear was destined to bring regret.

Fang Yu was now merely a cultivator at the 10th Stage of Physical Body and could not participate in the great battle between them, so he only used the Seven Sha Gourd to protect himself and Fang Qingxue, waiting for Fang Qingxue's recovery.

Once Fang Qingxue recovered her magic power, all difficulties would be solved.

So now Fang Yu quietly watched the show.

Not far away, Shi Longzi and the Demon Commander had already begun exchanging techniques.

In the sky, as Shi Longzi pointed with one finger, a sharp Geng Metal sword qi tore through the heavens. This sword qi was dozens of zhang long, as wide as a door panel, imbued with a sharpness that could destroy everything, capable of piercing through anything.

Compared to the Purple Lightning Yin Thunder Blade, it possessed an even more sword-immortal-like fierce and relentless ferocity.

This was one of the Yuhua Sect's Eight Great Divine Abilities, the Great Freedom Mysterious Metal Sword Qi. Once cultivated, the sword qi protects the body, roaming freely between heaven and earth, becoming a carefree sword immortal. When the sword qi bursts forth, it surpasses all flying swords; a casual finger strike already exceeds the might of a treasure-grade flying sword.

Facing Shi Longzi's Great Freedom Mysterious Metal Sword Qi, the Demon Commander directly grabbed with a great hand. Between his five fingers, Daoist Gang Qi overflowed, bright white, as if white bones had melted into airflow. As the airflow rolled, it emitted cracking sounds like bones.

Though he appeared to be a man of the immortal Dao, the moment he struck, his identity as a demonic sect member was revealed.

"Xiantian White Bone Divine Ability!"

Jin Jin Shitai was shocked.

Fang Yu saw the Demon Commander employ the Xiantian White Bone Divine Ability and actually grab that Great Freedom Mysterious Metal Sword Qi in one grasp.

However, upon seeing this scene, Shi Longzi's face instead revealed a smile like that of a successful plot. In the nick of time, he uttered a few words from his mouth.

"Instant Kill Great Art!"

The Mysterious Metal Sword Qi seized by the Xiantian White Bone Divine Ability suddenly emitted intense tremors. Amidst the tremors, it suddenly vanished, as if teleporting.

The next instant, the Mysterious Metal Sword qi appeared out of thin air behind Ying Tianqing's head, incomparably sharp, its speed so fast it caused heaven and earth to resonate.

This was an unimaginable scene.

The sword qi resonated with heaven and earth, and the desert within a radius of a hundred li heaved as if in an earthquake.

The airflow between heaven and earth churned wildly. Where the sword qi resonated, columns of tornadoes appeared, lifting thousands of tons of yellow sand.

Everywhere was earthquake, everywhere was sandstorm.

The Instant Kill Art had actually formed such a terrifying heavenly phenomenon.

Just as the Demon Marshal was about to be slain on the spot, his brain about to be destroyed, at the critical moment, a fist-sized bone pill rose from behind the Demon Marshal's head; the sword Qi of the Instant Kill Art encountered this bone pill and actually sank into it, like a clay ox entering the sea.

"White Bone Relic!"

Shi Longzi was greatly shocked, no longer wearing his previous smug look, and without hesitation transformed into a golden long rainbow, wrapped up Jin Shi, and tore through the sky to flee.

Soaring through the sky, decisive and resolute, displaying incomparable decisiveness.

"Think you can run?"

The Demon Marshal's face showed a cold expression; the White Bone Relic behind his head rose into the air, and after several flickers it caught up to Jin Guang, emitting a cruel tearing sound; Shi Longzi's and Jin Shi's screams of agony rang out.

The White Bone Demon Shadow returned, holding two blood-drenched arms in its hands, eating them in big bites, and in the blink of an eye swallowed them down.

The Demon Marshal slightly frowned, let the White Bone Demon Shadow return to his body, and once again looked toward Fang Qingxue.

Just at this moment, the purple lightning great cocoon suddenly split open, and Fang Qingxue stood up.
