The Holy Son of the Black Demon faction possesses formidable strength and should not be underestimated.
Sensing the torrent of power radiating from him, I could surmise that his current cultivation level had reached the middle stage of the True Light realm.
To have achieved such a state at such a young age, and to be revered as the Holy Son of the Black Demon faction, was entirely justifiable.
From my perspective, his cultivation surpassed mine, and the pressure to deal with him was immense.
However, I was fortunate to have a plethora of trump cards, numerous magical artifacts, and many secret techniques.
I also possessed the twelve guardian demon souls.
More importantly, I had a Heaven-tier talisman, the Divine Fire Talisman.
As long as I could lock onto him with my talisman, regardless of whether he was in the True Light realm or the Dao Body realm, I was confident in my ability to annihilate him directly.
As the Black Demon Holy Son thrust his iron needle towards me, I did not flinch.
Raising my peach wood sword, I met his attack.
"Heaven and Earth Are Boundless, Yin and Yang Have Laws, Break!"
I immediately unleashed the "Break" technique upon contact.
For a moment, energy surged and gathered upon the peach wood sword.
The Black Demon Holy Son also sensed the might of my sword strike.
He let out a roar:
"Black Demon Sting!"
He trembled, black energy rippling, and a potent aura erupted from him.
"Bang!"
My weapon collided with the Black Demon Holy Son's.
The two energies burst forth, transforming into ripples that spread outward like a tide with a "buzzing" sound.
Many minor ghosts and corpse monsters in the vicinity were forced to retreat repeatedly by this powerful aura.
The Black Demon Holy Son gazed at me coldly:
"Kid, you have some strength. But to this Holy Son, you are still too weak!"
With that, he gave a mighty flick of his black demon iron needle, forcing me back.
"Whether I'm weak or not, we'll know after the fight!"
I spoke again, raising my hand and unleashing a talisman.
A yellow talisman flew directly towards the Black Demon Holy Son.
The Black Demon Holy Son, unwilling to be outdone, also drew out a black talisman and hurled it at me.
The two talismans met in mid-air.
With a resounding "boom," they exploded.
The talismanic energies vibrated, canceling each other out.
The Black Demon Holy Son rapidly formed hand seals, murmuring a few incantations.
Suddenly, he pointed at me:
"Nine Deaths Soul Technique! Command!"
With this command, I felt an unusual chill permeate the surroundings.
From the ground on my left and right, black mist suddenly emerged.
Then, iron chains inscribed with runes shot out with a "swish, swish, swish" and coiled towards me.
This was a technique I had never seen before, and I dared not be careless.
Even more so, I could not allow these chains to entwine me.
I raised my peach wood sword and began to slash.
"Bang, bang, bang," the sounds were continuous as I hacked at the chains, turning them into black smoke.
But soon, new chains would appear, reaching out to entwine me again.
The Black Demon Holy Son watched this, a cold smile playing on his lips:
"Already faltering?"
"This is nothing!"
I spoke softly, refusing to concede.
I formed sword fingers with my left hand:
"Heaven and Earth Are Boundless, Yin and Yang Borrowing Laws, Command!"
Two peach wood swords flew out with a "swoosh," transforming into flying swords and hacking around me.
My pressure significantly decreased, and my attacks became sharp and fierce.
Simultaneously, I also slew a white-robed fierce ghost.
The Black Demon Holy Son frowned upon seeing this:
"A fine sword control technique, but before the might of my Black Demon power, you remain so humble."
"..."
This time, I did not respond to his taunts.
Instead, I launched an assault towards him.
I needed to lure him to the ambush point.
To draw him away from those few figures in black robes.
Because I could sense the formidable power of those black-robed individuals.
If I did not evade those black-robed figures, even if I immediately unleashed the twelve demon souls, I might not be able to kill him here and now.
I had to wait, wait for an opportunity.
Wait for this fellow to move away from those black-robed figures.
Away from their protection.
Then, I could join forces with Old Mo, the twelve demon souls, and others to capture and kill him.
But before that, I had to make him feel that he could defeat me, that I was not that dangerous.
Achieving this, however, was difficult.
Because his strength was formidable, far exceeding my expectations.
Therefore, implementing this plan was fraught with challenges.
If done poorly, the so-called "feigned weakness" could become a fatal flaw for me.
Thus, every move I made was cautious.
The Black Demon Holy Son grew increasingly confident.
He relentlessly pressured me.
His powerful offensive techniques and the unleashed talismans kept me in a very passive state.
"Kid, weren't you very arrogant just now?"
"Not so arrogant now?"
"Come! Let this Holy Son see what other abilities you possess!"
"..."
The mockery had shifted from me to this Black Demon Holy Son.
He pushed me back step by step...
On the other side, Old Mo, Gu Qianyue, and others had already split up on either side. Although they appeared to be fighting alone,
In their respective areas, they were confronting those fierce ghosts and corpse monsters.
However, they were constantly keeping an eye on my situation.
Seeing me being suppressed, they were quite worried.
But they also understood that this was part of the plan.
As long as I lured him to the ambush point,
We would launch a combined attack instantly.
At that moment, he would be severely wounded, if not killed.
Once more, our swords clashed.
This time, I was injured by his Black Demon Qi.
I felt a sharp pain in my chest, and a scorching heat rushed towards my nose and mouth.
With a "pfft," I spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Black Demon Holy Son roared with laughter upon seeing this:
"Kid, weren't you very arrogant? Why aren't you showing off now?"
Hearing his arrogant laughter, I knew that
This fellow was becoming lost in his pride, getting carried away.
As long as I fanned the flames, he would surely take the bait.
Thus, I feigned extreme discomfort:
"Don't be so arrogant. Wait until I recover, and I'll fight you again another day."
With that, I clutched my chest, appearing as if I intended to flee.
The Black Demon Holy Son, seeing this, would naturally not let me escape:
"Another day? Does this Holy Son give you the chance for another day? Today is the day you die, kid."
With that, the Black Demon Holy Son charged at me with full force.
And behind him, the black-robed figure who had been secretly watching him.
Now also quickly followed, ensuring the Black Demon Holy Son's safety.
But at this very moment, a talisman from a righteous elder suddenly struck in this direction.
The elder, to counter it, had to act.
As a result, he was delayed.
It was precisely this delay that widened the safety distance between the black-robed figure and the Black Demon Holy Son.
Meanwhile, I was being pursued by the Black Demon Holy Son, forcing me to retreat repeatedly.
After several awkward dodges, I appeared at the predetermined ambush point.
This was the central location of Old Mo, Gu Qianyue, and the others.
As soon as I arrived here, I stopped fleeing.
Instead, I turned around.
My appearance, which had seemed weak moments ago, was now replaced with a stern expression.
"Not fleeing anymore?"
"Fleeing? Why would I flee? I think it's you who should be fleeing."
I said coldly.
With my left hand, I produced the Yin-Yang Orb.
The two orbs intertwined, releasing Yin and Yang energies.
"Yin and Yang energies?"
The Black Demon Holy Son was somewhat surprised, gazing at the Yin-Yang Orb.
But this was not all.
On the Purple Bone Vine, the mark of the twelve demon souls flashed.
One by one, the demon souls transformed into black mist and condensed around me.
"Demon souls! You actually have guardian demon souls?"
The Black Demon Holy Son exclaimed again, somewhat astonished.
At the same time, he sensed danger and instinctively took a step back.
But the moment he stepped back.
A female voice rang out:
"Demon Subduing Sword Seal!"
Following the sound, I saw the loli Gu Qianyue leap into the air.
Holding a slender sword, she drew a sword seal in mid-air.
The sword seal quickly solidified and, with a "buzz," struck towards the Black Demon Holy Son.
The Black Demon Holy Son was greatly alarmed.
Before he could react, Meng Fang and Meng You also attacked from the sides.
On the other side, Old Mo and Xiao Yao let out a low growl:
"Lightning Technique: Lightning Axe!"
With crackling electrical sounds, Old Mo held his Lightning Axe and swung it down, unleashing a mighty thunderbolt.
"Fire Technique: Heavenly Dipper Fire Art."
Xiao Yao thrust her sword forward, and with a "rumble," scorching flames erupted.
From multiple directions, they all targeted the Black Demon Holy Son.
The Black Demon Holy Son's face contorted in horror; he had nowhere to escape.
And his protective black-robed figure, having been previously tied up.
Now, realizing the danger, it was too late to intervene...
