School Head Lu Feng is a good friend of You Xu, and he has caused quite a bit of trouble for Zhang Xuan. Eventually, the Elder Hall revealed his identity, and 'Yang shi' appeared. He displayed his divine might.
After Elder Zhang of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy appointed him as the principal of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy and punished him, he disappeared without a trace.
According to Elder Mi, he had voluntarily applied to go to the Catacombs to ask for forgiveness. He might not return for the rest of his life.
At that time, he sighed with emotion for a long time.
Zhang Xuan had thought that it would be impossible for him to come across them given how vast this place was. Who could have thought that he would meet them not too long after entering, not to mention being ganged up on?
At this moment, Lu Feng's face was haggard, and he no longer had the high-spirited disposition of the head of the Apothecary School. His left sleeve was empty, as if it had been severed at some point. There were several saber wounds on his body, and even though the bleeding had already stopped, the ghastly wounds were still a gruesome sight to behold.
Even though he was injured, his eyes were calm and cold. It seemed like the battle against the Otherworldly Demons had calmed his mind.
Because of this, his cultivation, which was already half a step into the Divine Sense Realm, became even more stable, and he could break through at any time.
It looked like the dangers of the Catacombs had made him give up scheming and plotting against each other. He had become more open-minded.
Other than Lu Feng, all of the 6-star pinnacle master teachers who were surrounded carried sharp auras that far surpassed those of the vice principals of the Master Teacher Academy.
However, their ages had all reached the threshold of two thousand years old. Their bodies were emitting a declining aura, as if their lives were reaching the limit.
Such people had entered the Subterranean Gallery in hopes of making use of their remaining lifespan to hunt down as many Otherworldly Demons as possible so as to ensure the safety of mankind.
"I must think of a way to save him …"
His gaze was grave.
If it had been in the past, he might have stood by and watched from the sidelines if it had nothing to do with him. However, after comprehending the Heart of a Teacher, his state of mind had been raised to a higher level. These people were willing to disregard their lives for mankind, but since he had encountered them, he couldn't just stand by and watch from the sidelines.
"Using brute force definitely won't work …"
He frowned.
There were more than two hundred Otherworldly Demons. Even if Zhang Xuan were to use all of his means at his disposal, it would still be impossible for him to snatch Luo Ruoxin over. Furthermore, if he were to do so, it would only backfire if the Otherworldly Demons decided to kill him instead. Perhaps, he might even end up harming them instead.
He had to think of a foolproof plan.
Not only could he eliminate this group of fellows, but he could also successfully rescue them.
After a moment of hesitation, Zhang Xuan flicked his wrist and took out a book. "Vicious, is there any way to disguise me as an Otherworldly Demon?"
It was nigh impossible for him to sneak out from the encirclement of more than two hundred Otherworldly Demons … Unless he was an Otherworldly Demon as well, he would be able to make the other party lower their guard!
After more than two months of hibernation, Vicious had awoken some time ago. While his strength did not increase by much, he was already able to perfectly control that finger bone.
"Disguise as my clansmen?"
The heart in the book beat a few times. "That's easy! Master has cultivated the Quintuple Incandescence Golden Body, allowing you to change your height and weight at will. As long as you take on their appearance, I'll help you execute your Slaughter Qi. It might be difficult to fool the top Sovereigns, but these weaklings are nothing to me! "
The greatest obstacle to disguising as an Otherworldly Demon was the Zhenqi of Slaughter. As long as he could resolve this, his height, weight, and appearance would not pose much of a problem.
Having cultivated the Quintuple Incandescence Golden Body to the Fourth Incandescence, Zhang Xuan was able to alter his muscles and bones at will, and it wasn't too difficult for him to conceal his appearance from the other party.
"Alright, I'll give it a try!"
Hearing that it was possible to disguise as an Otherworldly Demon, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. After a moment of hesitation, he chose a puppet in his storage ring as his model. His muscles and bones hummed, and in less than two breaths, he had already changed his appearance.
He took off the clothes of the puppet and put it on. At this moment, he looked no different from an Otherworldly Demon, such that even master teachers would find it difficult to tell the difference.
"Master, hide my finger on your hand, and the Zhenqi of Slaughter will ignite within your body, making it difficult for others to notice it!"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was done with his transformation, Vicious said.
"Un." Zhang Xuan nodded.
Hu!
A finger bone appeared before Zhang Xuan's eyes, and he placed it lightly on his index finger. It slowly fused with his skin, and a moment later, it disappeared without a trace.
Following which, Zhang Xuan felt a unique energy flowing through his body. It was completely different from the zhenqi that he had cultivated previously.
This energy was filled with violence, and it felt as if it could tear the world apart. Cultivating it frequently would cause one's mind to be irritable, and one would be filled with a thirst for battle.
"Is this the Zhenqi of Slaughter of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe?" Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up.
It was no wonder the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe was so warlike. No one would be able to control themselves after cultivating this zhenqi.
"Un. We call it the Zhenqi of Slaughter!" Vicious replied with a doubtful tone. "Master, do you feel any discomfort driving this zhenqi?"
"Discomfort?"
Zhang Xuan drove the zhenqi in his body once before shaking his head. With glowing eyes, he said, "I feel that it's filled with strength!"
"Filled with strength?"
Vicious was taken aback.
Ordinary humans were incapable of withstanding the Zhenqi of Slaughter, not even Saint realm experts. Yet, his master was actually able to drive it without feeling the slightest discomfort.
Wasn't his body a little too resilient?
"It's good that you don't feel any discomfort!" Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.
Since he was loyal to his master, it was only natural for him to consider his master's well-being. If the other party felt any discomfort, he would have withdrawn his zhenqi.
"Un." Guessing the other party's thoughts, Zhang Xuan nodded with a smile.
His body was even capable of driving the Heaven's Path zhenqi, so the Zhenqi of Slaughter was nothing to him.
Right, since the Heaven's Path zhenqi is capable of imitating other zhenqi, could it be possible for it to imitate this as well?
All along, he had thought that the Zhenqi of Slaughter only carried killing intent, but since it was also a type of zhenqi, could it be imitated as well?
The Heaven's Path zhenqi was an omnipotent zhenqi. It could be fused with any zhenqi of any attribute.
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan's Heaven's Path zhenqi began to boil, and a surge of Zhenqi of Slaughter surged into the sky. Even though it wasn't as powerful as the one he had felt from Vicious' finger, it seemed to be purer.
"Emperor … How is this possible? Master … is an Otherworldly Demon in disguise? "
Just as Zhang Xuan was deep in thought, Vicious' quivering voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Emperor?" Taken aback, Zhang Xuan burst into laughter. "An Otherworldly Demon in disguise? How is that possible? "
It was not as if the other party didn't know that he was a Celestial Master Teacher.
"The Otherworldly Demonic Tribe is categorized according to their bloodline. The bloodline of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe is the strongest, followed by the King Tribe, Marquis Tribe, Noble Tribe, and Mortal Tribe … Every single tribe is further categorized by their bloodline as well.
Vicious said. "The zhenqi that master exerted earlier is extremely pure, and it's unique to Emperor …"
"Emperor?" Zhang Xuan blinked his eyes in astonishment.
How could a casual imitation of the Heaven's Path zhenqi be so formidable?
"That's right!" Vicious replied respectfully. At the same time, he was even more perplexed about his master's identity.
It was one thing for a Celestial Master Teacher to be able to drive the Zhenqi of Slaughter without the slightest discomfort, but to think that he would possess the zhenqi of an Emperor as well …
Just how many more secrets did his master have?
"Since I am an Emperor, what about you?" Zhang Xuan asked.
The Heaven's Path zhenqi was extremely pure. Since Vicious was able to imitate it, it had to be of the highest grade. Judging from Vicious' shocked tone, was he not an Emperor?
Wasn't he one of the top experts of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe?
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to fight against Kong Shi back then!
"I …"
With a bitter smile, Vicious was just about to explain when he suddenly noticed something, and a voice sounded, "Master, it seems like we have been discovered!"
"We have been discovered?"
Taken aback, Zhang Xuan raised his head to take a look, and his eyebrows twitched uncontrollably. He nearly fainted on the spot.
Unknowingly, forty to fifty Otherworldly Demons had appeared in the sky. Every single one of them emanated a powerful aura, and the killing intent they emanated had sealed off their surroundings. It was impossible for them to escape at all.
Didn't they hide themselves well?
How could they have been discovered?
To be surrounded before they could even save anyone … it couldn't be that they were unable to escape, right?
It must be because I failed to control my Heaven's Path zhenqi when I was converting it into Zhenqi of Slaughter …
Zhang Xuan's face twitched as he recalled the matter.
While the effects of converting his Heaven's Path zhenqi into the Zhenqi of Slaughter that was unique to the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe had been great, he had failed to control it, and its aura had soared into the sky.
Most likely, the Otherworldly Demons had noticed it in that brief moment.
Hualala!
Just as Zhang Xuan was at a loss as to what he should do, the Otherworldly Demons in the sky suddenly saw his appearance, and the tension in the air dissipated. Following which, a Saint 2-dan Otherworldly Demon appeared before him.
"Who are you?"
The Otherworldly Demon asked doubtfully.
"Me?"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback for a moment. Only then did he recall that he had changed into the clothes of an Otherworldly Demon, and his appearance had been altered as well.
At this moment, coupled with the boiling killing intent that was emanating from his body, he looked exactly like an Otherworldly Demon.
The Otherworldly Demon must have thought that he was an Otherworldly Demon, but he didn't recognize him.
"I …"
Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhang Xuan was just about to come up with a random name to fool the Otherworldly Demon. In any case, there were so many Otherworldly Demons that it was impossible for the Otherworldly Demon to recognize all of them. However, at that moment, a thought suddenly surfaced in his mind.
Narrowing his eyes, Zhang Xuan took a deep breath, and the Zhenqi of Slaughter in Vicious' finger burst forth from his body. A powerful killing intent surged into the sky.
Hong long!
Even though the killing intent disguised by the Heaven's Path zhenqi was incomparably pure, it was only at the level of a Half-Saint. On the other hand, the killing intent emanating from the Heaven's Path zhenqi in Vicious' finger felt like a boundless ocean.
"Th-this …"
Feeling the killing intent, the Saint 2-dan Otherworldly Demon's face paled, and his body stiffened uncontrollably.
"I don't think I need to explain my identity, right?"
With his hands behind his back, Zhang Xuan looked at the Otherworldly Demon impassively.
Even if Vicious knew of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, it was only several dozen millenniums ago. On top of that, he had suffered severe memory loss. It was possible for him to come up with a random name to fool the Otherworldly Demons, but if he were to make a mistake and claim that he didn't have such a surname in the first place, wouldn't he be courting death?
Besides, even if he were to come up with a name that no one knew of, it would be impossible for him to save the Otherworldly Demons even if he were to sneak into their group.
The best solution was to create an identity that the Otherworldly Demons would fear.
Since the Otherworldly Demons were ranked according to the purity of their Zhenqi of Slaughter, he would just have to scare them first.
In any case, he was already very familiar with such matters, and he didn't find it difficult at all.
"You don't need to explain your identity?"
The Saint 2-dan Otherworldly Demon was taken aback by Zhang Xuan's words.
I haven't even met you before, how could I possibly know who you are?
You don't need to explain your identity?
Why don't you tell me about it?
