Daoist Competition-Chapter 223 - 80: Purgatory Xuan Light, Divine Shuttle Encounters Disaster - Part 2

After standing there in astonishment for a moment, he finally came to his senses, a look of realization appearing on his face, and he thought to himself, "This Demon Sect Secret Volume really holds more than meets the eye. It turns out to ignite the seven emotions and six desires of others, and then refines the person’s whole body’s Essence into a wisp of essence soul to nourish oneself. But this Dharma technique is too troublesome; I, the Old Patriarch, have no patience to cultivate it."

He had previously used spells to control no fewer than a hundred demon cultivators, but very few could have their obsessions ignited. Obviously, this condition is extremely stringent, not everyone can achieve it. While it can strengthen the Divine Soul, he doesn’t possess other Demon Sect cultivation techniques and can’t plot against cultivators of the same cultivation level, so this Dharma technique is practically a mere scrap for him. After figuring it out, he cast it aside and continued absorbing Essence Blood.

As he absorbed more disciples, his cultivation realm in this body kept climbing higher and higher.

To avoid attracting attention, he chose to attach his heart and spirit to a Xuan Guang First Realm cultivator. However, after devouring three people, the realm had already advanced to Xuan Guang Second Realm. This was also because he himself was a Hua Dan Cultivator, there wasn’t even the slightest room for error.

After he had completely devoured everyone’s Essence Blood, his cultivation soared, directly becoming a Xuan Guang Third Realm Cultivator.

A black and red Xuan Light flickered above his head, exuding an ominous and eerie aura. Apart from his physical body differing from ordinary cultivators, his condensed Purgatory Xuan Light was even more formidable than that of average Xuan Guang Third Realm cultivators.

However, having reached this point, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t advance his cultivation any further. He couldn’t help but curse under his breath.

If there were one more person, perhaps he could merge the Xuan Seed and Spiritual Energy, and then condense a Small Golden Core. However, at the moment, this cultivation should be enough to deal with Zhang Yan.

At this time, his appearance had drastically changed. The disciple he possessed originally had the appearance of a handsome gentleman, but now his eyebrows were like a bloodline across his forehead, his long red hair resembling dancing flames almost reached the ground, and his entire body emitted an indescribable sinister aura, resembling a demon to the fullest.

Although his movements were quite complex when casting spells earlier, after completing everything, it actually took just over ten breaths. At this moment, his face changed as he looked up towards the sky, seeing a blue light like a rainbow streaking across the sky. The fierce Sword Qi hadn’t arrived yet, but his skin already felt a splitting sensation.

The Bald Old Demon laughed, "Little thief, I, the Old Patriarch, have been waiting for you!" frёewebnoѵēl.com

He howled a wolf-like cry into the sky, his shoulders trembling, and the black and red Xuan Light above his head flipped upwards, claw-shaped, grabbing towards the sky.

Zhang Yan smirked slightly. His sword light seemed spectacular and impressive, but it was actually just for show, without much effort. Just when the two lights were about to intersect, he suddenly flicked to the side, and at that moment, a speck of green light shot from his sleeve straight towards the opponent’s head.

After unleashing the Ruyi Divine Shuttle, Zhang Yan didn’t wait for his form to stabilize and also summoned the Star Sword Ball from his hand, both the green and blue lights striking towards the Bald Old Demon.

Surprisingly, the Ruyi Divine Shuttle and the Star Sword Ball both passed seamlessly through the opponent as if the person had completely forgotten to evade.

The Bald Old Demon staggered back a few steps, gazing at the two bowl-sized wounds on his chest, merely chuckled, and with a wave of his hand, blood filled the openings. Within moments, the flesh regrew completely.

His current body was merely controlled by heart and spirit, as his original Primordial Spirit had long been devoured by him. No matter how severe the injury, even if his head were severed, as long as there was life force within the body, it could reattach. Particularly, the Xuan Seed in his body contained the Essence Blood Qi of more than ten people at the moment. Even if Zhang Yan killed him ten times, he might not exhaust all this life force.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Yan was slightly taken aback, but when he retrieved the Ruyi Divine Shuttle, he couldn’t help but frown.

The Divine Shuttle, originally flowing with green light and brimming with Spiritual Energy, now seemed to have been scorched by something. The Divine Light on it dimmed noticeably, and he vaguely heard mournful cries, evidently suffering heavy damage.

He retrieved the Star Sword Ball for a glance, but it wasn’t damaged in the slightest.

With a turn of thought, he understood probably because the Star Sword Ball was imbued with his own Golden Fire Mysterious Light, making the opponent’s methods ineffective.

He looked down, squinting his eyes, a cold gleam flashing in the slits of his eyes. It seemed he could only use his own Xuan Light to handle this demon.

Taking two Flying Swords from the sleeve bag, he pinched the spell and soared into the sky, circling above his head.

Seeing this, the Bald Old Demon laughed heartily at the sky and said, "No matter how many Dharma Treasures you bring, they’re useless against me. Young man, prepare to die!"

He shook his body, and a tunneling light shot up into the sky.

Zhang Yan extended a finger, pointing forward, and shouted, "Go!"

The two Flying Swords emitted sharp screeches, one after the other, slashing towards the opponent’s head,

The Bald Old Demon showed a look of disdain. The black and red Xuan Light above his head reached forward and grabbed, enveloping the two Flying Swords, and with a single roll, instantly wiped away the Spiritual Energy from the sword bodies, rendering them as ordinary iron, letting them fall to the ground.

However, as he was still gloating, following closely behind the two Flying Swords came a blazing sun-like Golden Fire Mysterious Light.

His expression changed, but then a cruel smile appeared on his lips. With a shout, he charged head-on towards the golden fire without dodging.

Little did both of them know, at that moment far away, several thousand miles at the Bixuan Peak of the Mingcang Sect, a white-clothed cultivator who was meditating suddenly opened his eyes, shooting a gaze full of coldness, saying, "Who dares to harm my Divine Shuttle?"

He snorted coldly, causing the entire mountain to tremble slightly. Immediately, a cyan-sword light shot skyward, heading straight towards Bamboo Island.
