Tyrant Sky Martial Soul-Chapter 2275 - 278: Better to Face the Ming King Than Provoke Ling Xiao

Sitting high on the platform, the exalted figure was one of the Hall Masters of the Demon Shadow Sect's branch in Eight Immortals County City.

Within the boundaries of Eight Immortals County City, the Hall Master's status and strength were second only to the County Steward.

This person's cultivation was at the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm Second Layer Hell Early Stage!

This cultivation level was comparable to Sha Hai after his resurrection.

Honestly, it's tough to deal with.

But Sha Hai should be stronger than this guy.

Because Ling Xiao discovered that this guy's cultivation was extremely unstable, seemingly enhanced through the Bloodsucking Demon Technique, thus not robust enough.

Not even a real First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm Second Layer Hell cultivation level.

In other words, facing this guy would be much easier than Sha Hai.

After all, there was a significant realm difference, and Ling Xiao dared not be careless.

Previously, killing Yuan Neng was successful because he attacked while Yuan Neng's attention was diverted by other Martial Artists.

Today, Ling Xiao still planned a sneak attack.

Using the simplest method to achieve the greatest result.

Injure him severely in a sneak attack, then capture him alive because this Hall Master surely knows the old base of the Demon Shadow Sect in Eight Immortals County City.

Ling Xiao's body gradually transformed.

His face turned into that of the Shou Hu Fa's appearance from before.

The secret technique obtained after killing the Yin-Yang Demon King on White Tiger Continent finally proved useful again now.

"Hall Master, that old fool Ling Yuhua stubbornly refuses to submit, and he even brought help from Eight Immortals County City. We were defeated. I hope the Hall Master can take action."

Ling Xiao seemed to be wounded in several places, looking pained beyond measure.

"Useless trash, who could he possibly call for help?"

The Hall Master said disdainfully.

"I heard it's someone named Ling Xiao, a disciple from Eight Immortals Mountain. But he only joined Eight Immortals Mountain around a month ago."

Ling Xiao replied.

"Oh? That kid, huh, I've heard of him. County Steward said if anyone captures him alive, they'll be credited with a major achievement. You all continue preparing the Bloodsucking Sacrifice; I'll be back soon."

The Hall Master elegantly descended from the height, not even glancing at Ling Xiao, heading towards the Ling Family's direction.

Ling Xiao followed behind, with a cold smile on his face.

This transformation technique, although not offensive, is extremely handy indeed.

Seeing no one else around, Ling Xiao suddenly launched an attack from behind.

He didn't use a sword.

Because Sword Qi is too intense and easily noticeable.

He formed a hand seal, releasing a fierce Erlang's Celestial Dog condensed of Powerful Energy. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

This was undoubtedly the move from the Dharma Image Seal within the Eternal Seal, the Celestial Dog.

Although its power might not surpass Qiankun One Strike, the Celestial Dog's strength lies in biting and not letting go until the opponent loses resistance.

The Hall Master wasn't ordinary; as the Celestial Dog approached within about four to five meters, he surprisingly turned his head.

Upon sensing danger, he retreated hastily and simultaneously gathered a move attempting to resist.

Unfortunately, Ling Xiao's attack was well-prepared, not only swift but at an unexpected angle.

The Hall Master had no means of defense; before he could unleash a strike, he was bitten in the throat by the Celestial Dog, his entire body pierced with a terrible electric current, instantly paralyzing him.

Seizing the moment, Ling Xiao dashed forward, and with two Sword Qi, crippled this Hall Master's cultivation.

A crippled cultivation is worse than a snake with its venomous fangs extracted; this guy certainly couldn't pose a threat to Ling Xiao or any other members of the Ling Family anymore.

At that moment, Ling Yuhua and Old Black arrived, shockingly watching the scene.

It was as if they'd seen a ghost in broad daylight.

"Master, it looks like the clan leader is saved. Young Master Ling Xiao's power is truly unfathomable!"

For a Martial Artist of Old Black's level, easily defeating the Hall Master of the Demon Shadow Sect in Eight Immortals County City was indeed astonishing.

Given his limited perspective, if you told him there were even stronger Martial Artists than Ling Xiao, he might think you were joking.

"Indeed, now I'm somewhat grateful he took control of the Ling Family. Otherwise, we might have become the Demon Shadow Sect's Blood Pigs this time. It's said that outside of Yuhua Town, other towns in Eight Immortals County have already been conquered by the Demon Shadow Sect.

Some in secret, some openly."

Ling Yuhua sighed deeply.

He was previously dissatisfied with Ling Xiao's control, but such feelings have completely disappeared, replaced by excitement and gratitude.

His only puzzlement now was the true extent of Ling Xiao's cultivation.

Exactly how strong he was.

Rumored to be at the Late Stage of First Layer Hell in Yin-Yang Realm, but was it true?

To so effortlessly subdue a Martial Artist at the Hell Early Stage of First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm Second Layer, even using tactics, would be impossible without powerful offensive capabilities.

"Tell me, where exactly is your Demon Shadow Sect's base in Eight Immortals County?"

Capturing the Hall Master of the Demon Shadow Sect's Eight Immortals County branch was naturally to probe some information.

Ling Xiao wasn't in a hurry to kill him yet.

So he took him back to the Ling Family for a secret interrogation.

As for the plaza, it's believed that without this Hall Master, no one would dare to start the Bloodsucking Sacrifice test.

"Hmph, kid, give up! I would never betray the Demon Shadow Sect, you foolish guy!"

Unexpectedly, the Hall Master was quite stubborn; even after having his cultivation crippled by Ling Xiao, he stuck his neck out to resist and refused to answer Ling Xiao's questions.

"Xiao'er, let this old man handle him, I've interrogated various prisoners before. Such stubborn ones only yield with torture."

Ling Yuhua suggested from the side.

"I can also assist."

Old Black nodded in agreement.

Both of them bore deep hatred towards the Demon Shadow Sect members, never wanting to miss an opportunity to deal with them.

"Ha ha ha, even if you kill me, don't think I'd yield. You truly underestimate people of our Demon Shadow Sect."

The Hall Master laughed heartily as if he truly could face death calmly.

"Is that so? Maybe that's because you haven't suffered enough."

Ling Xiao smiled coldly, suddenly stuffing a Life and Death Illusion Disperse into the Hall Master's mouth.

This was naturally the same thing Ling Yuhua and Old Black had taken before.

Ling Xiao did this for two reasons.

One was to extract useful information from this guy, the other was to let Ling Yuhua and Old Black know the consequences of betrayal.

Life and Death Illusion Disperse took effect momentarily.

With a thought, Ling Xiao activated the drug's full power inside the Hall Master's body.

At first, the Hall Master gritted his teeth and resisted, seemingly determined to oppose Ling Xiao to the end.

But after a few minutes, as he scratched his skin to bloody shreds, he finally cried out in agony.

"Let me die! Let me die!"

He wasn't begging for mercy; he was pleading for death. That is the horror of Life and Death Illusion Disperse.
