It was the Heavenly Demon Zither Song.
It was a terrifying technique that could confuse one's mind and create illusions. After the battle, Tan Xiu realized that although this demonic beast's mental force was very strong, it had become very weak due to the suppression of the Heaven and Earth Laws in this world. Using the Heavenly Demon Zither Song to influence it was definitely better than having Han Qingwu participate in the battle.
Sure enough.
As the Heavenly Demon Zither Song played, Blood Fiend Monarch's movements suddenly became sluggish. It must be noted that a slight carelessness in a fight between powerhouses could cost one their life. Blood Fiend Monarch's speed and strength slowed down, and it even desperately shook its head in an attempt to shake off the zither music that drilled into its mind.
"Boom …"
The Fire Qilin opened its mouth and spat out a red pill that bombarded Blood Fiend Monarch's abdomen. Just as Blood Fiend Monarch howled in pain, Xue Yu waved her immortal sword and tore a bloody wound on its back. The wound was so severe that it nearly fell to the ground due to the pain.
"Myriad Swords Return to Origin!"
Tan Xiu manipulated the divine sword and thousands of sword shadows shot toward Blood Fiend Monarch. While the Fire Qilin was still in shock, the swords pierced Blood Fiend Monarch's body and left thousands of wounds on its body.
ROAR …
Blood Beast Monarch showed a look of despair. It never dreamed that someone could pierce its body with a sword. It must be noted that there was a layer of defense inside its body that even a supreme-grade immortal sword couldn't penetrate its body without the control of a powerhouse.
"That sword …"
Blood Fiend Monarch howled and turned to rush into the depths of the Himalayas. But after rushing for more than 10 kilometers, its aura suddenly stopped and its body fell to the ground.
"Did I just kill it?"
The Fire Qilin stared dumbfoundedly at Blood Fiend Monarch's body that fell to the ground. In just a few flashes, it appeared next to the body.
Tan Xiu grinned and appeared at Blood Fiend Monarch's side. The divine sword continued to cut its body into eight parts and Tan Xiu stored them all into his interspatial ring.
The Fire Qilin angrily glared at Tan Xiu and said in a deep voice, "Give me this demonic beast's Demon Nucleus."
Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "You can use the Demon Nucleus to repair the array, but I can help you. Also, the Magic Core is very important to me, so I can't give it to you. In fact, you only have one goal, and that is to repair the teleportation formation and send you back to the Immortal World. Right? "
"That's right. I just want to return to the Immortal World. After being trapped on Earth for tens of thousands of years, I'm about to go crazy. "
"I promise you," said Tan Xiu. "You can leave freely if you can fix the Teleportation Array. If you can't fix it, I have a way to take you to the Immortal World. However, it will take a long time, probably ten to twenty years. "
The Fire Unicorn asked in surprise, "You have a way to go to the Immortal World? What will you do? "
"I'll be able to ascend to the Immortal World after I successfully cross the tribulation," said Tan Xiu. When the time comes, I naturally have a way to bring many people to the Immortal World. "
The Fire Unicorn observed Tan Xiu deeply and then nodded. "I believe you this time, but I hope you won't let me down. I've been waiting for tens of thousands of years, so I don't care about waiting for another ten or twenty years. If you can really bring me back to the Immortal World, I don't even need a single Demon Core. "
"It's a deal!"
Replied Tan Xiu immediately. The Demon Core was too important to him. The more he cultivated, the more resources he needed. If he could get nearly 100,000 Demon Cores, he could smoothly break through and eventually become a powerhouse comparable to the Immortal Stage.
"Fire Unicorn, help the human cultivators kill the other demonic beasts! There are still a lot of demonic beasts left. Let's kill more of them and let the human cultivators die. "Tan Xiu turned to look at the direction of Ugley Town and spoke.
"Alright!"
The Fire Unicorn didn't care about it. It was thanks to Tan Xiu's group of three that they were able to kill that demonic beast.
With the help of the Fire Unicorn, Tan Xiu, Han Qingwu, and Xue Yu, the originally suppressed battle situation instantly changed dramatically. Han Qingwu played the zither and used music to attack. On the other hand, Tan Xiu and Xue Yu slaughtered in all directions, constantly reaping the lives of the demonic beasts. The Fire Unicorn was even more brutal. He was like a tiger in a flock of sheep, killing the demonic beasts with no place to hide.
The whole day passed.
The battle in the Himalayas barely came to an end. Only less than 5,000 demonic beasts were left from nearly 100,000. They fled in panic and disappeared without a trace, apparently hiding somewhere in the depths of the Himalayas. Similarly, the human race also suffered great losses. There were originally thousands of cultivators, but now there were only 800 people left. Among these 800 people, more than 100 were crippled and more than 200 were seriously injured.
At the temporary encampment.
Duanmu Lin called the leaders of the various forces. His mood was very heavy and his injuries were quite serious, but he didn't care about it at all.
"Everyone, we've wiped out the demonic beast army, leaving only thousands of demonic beasts in hiding. We can't find them for the time being and have no way to kill them. Therefore, I want to ask for your opinion. Do you want to stay and go deep into the depths of the Himalayas to continue hunting the remaining demonic beasts? "
"The demonic beast army has been wiped out and the remaining thousands of demonic beasts have also gone into hiding." Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it won't be easy to find them in the depths of the Himalayas. Further, I still have a lot of things to do, so the Tang Sect's disciples won't be staying here. I think it'll be very easy to find and kill those demonic beasts given the abilities of our friends in the cultivation world. "
Duanmu Lin slightly furrowed his brows and forced a wry smile inwardly. Among the people in front of him, he hoped that Tan Xiu would stay with the Tang Sect's disciples to help him hunt the demonic beasts. However, he was also aware of Tan Xiu's character. Once he decided on something, it would be very difficult for him to change his mind. Hence, he could only helplessly say, "Forget it since you have something to do! They won't pose too much of a threat to us as long as we don't encounter a large-scale demonic beast attack here. "
"Inform me at once if there's any unforeseen event," said Tan Xiu.
Duanmu Lin nodded without a word and then asked the leaders of the other forces. After his pleading, most of the cultivator forces were finally willing to stay and help hunt the remaining demonic beasts. Even the Whole Unitary Sect's Nascent Soul Stage ancestor and the white-robed youth who had just woken up expressed their willingness to stay and wait until all the demonic beasts were killed.
Under the hazy night.
Tan Xiu quietly left Ugley Town with 192 disciples of the Tang Sect. Although the Tang Sect's disciples had made great contributions this time, Tan Xiu didn't accept any reward. What he had to do now was to hurry back to Nine Dragons Island and go into seclusion for some time.
Less than a minute after they left, four or five figures silently appeared and looked in the direction they left in, all of them revealing respectful expressions.
"Bureau Chief Duanmu, if it wasn't for Tan Xiu, I'm afraid that we wouldn't be able to win this war." The middle-aged nun sighed.
"You're right." Duanmu Lin nodded and said, "Tan Xiu has indeed made a great contribution. But it's a pity that this brat already has a very high status and background. Besides, he doesn't like to be famous, so there aren't many bonuses for him. It's just … unfair for him."
The kind-looking old man slowly said, "Indifferent to fame and fortune, only seeking longevity. Fellow Daoist Tang is so young, yet he possesses such great strength. This is truly shocking. Now, I'm really curious about Tang Sect. What kind of cultivation sect is it to be able to cultivate so many peerless geniuses? "
Duanmu Lin shook his head and said, "I think it's best if you don't try to investigate the Tang Sect. Else, Tan Xiu will be hostile to you once he learns about it."
The kind-looking old man shook his head with a smile and said, "Don't worry! I won't send anyone to investigate Tang Sect, even if I'm curious. Besides, Tang Sect has two Spirit Formation Stage experts, a force that far surpasses the other cultivation forces. I may be old, but my brain is still pretty good, so I naturally can't have a conflict with Tan Xiu. "
At noon the next day.
Tan Xiu appeared on Jingmen Island with the Tang Sect's disciples. He didn't want to expose the matter on Nine Dragons Island, so he temporarily stationed everyone after they returned to the Everlasting Feast Hall's headquarters.
"Grand Master."
Tang An silently appeared at Tang Xiu's side and respectfully reported, "We've investigated them. There are a total of six groups of people following us. Except for two groups whose origins we don't know, we've asked about the other four groups. All of them are from cultivation clans. They don't seem to have any malicious intent toward us. "
"The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind." Tan Xiu sneered. "Our Tang Sect's disciples have performed so well in this crisis, so it's only natural that it will attract the attention of other cultivation forces. It's only human nature for them to send people to follow us. However, we need to keep a low profile. "
"Aren't we going to kill all those people who are following us?" asked Tang An hesitantly.
Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "Forget it! Those cultivators who can survive are the heroes of humanity. We don't need to pay attention to those people as long as Nine Dragons Island is not exposed. Tang An, tell Tang Guang to drive away all those trackers. "
"Understood, Grand Master."
Tang An replied and her figure flickered and disappeared.
Suddenly …
The door of Tan Xiu's residence was gently pushed open by a gust of wind as Xue Yu came to Tan Xiu with a smile on her face. She felt as though a century had passed during her seclusion cultivation. Although her strength was improving every day, she missed Tan Xiu's embrace every time she faced a crisis.
Due to the demonic beasts, she didn't have much time to be intimate with Tan Xiu even though she could see Tan Xiu now. She had been holding back her longing for him until now.
"I miss you."
Xue Yu stretched out her arms and hugged Tan Xiu's waist tightly.
Tan Xiu could feel Xue Yu's true feelings and was slightly touched. He smiled and hugged her back, saying, "Did Yan 'er bully you? She even arranged that array for you to gain experience. "
"No, no, no," said Xue Yu hurriedly. "Yan 'er did it for my own good. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to help you in this demonic beast incident."
