Ancient demons were powerful prehistoric creatures, and it was difficult for ordinary artifacts to kill them. Even in the chaotic ancient times, it was difficult for them to kill each other.
With humanity's current technology tree, nuclear bombs might be able to kill them, but Li Xianyu suspected that unless they were at the center of the explosion, it would be difficult for them to die on the spot. Nuclear radiation should be useless against them.
This was the problem that ancient demons were difficult to deal with. They were individuals, creatures that could perfectly hide in human society. Even if nuclear bombs could kill them, who would have the guts to use nuclear bombs to clean up the place?
Unless there was a World War III and the world was destroyed.
Fortunately, everything in the world reinforced and restrained each other. Ancient demons that were born and raised in the world weren't truly invincible.
There were still things in the world that could kill them, such as the Sword of Qi!
Li Xianyu still hadn't figured out the principle of the Sword of Qi. He grasped the Sword of Qi like a peerless swordsman grasping a divine weapon, but he didn't know how it was forged.
Other than Wang Chen himself, no one else knew the principle of the Sword of Qi. Li Peiyun couldn't do it either. Back then, he was stuck at the Sword of Qi. It was only when he found the Demon Dao's Sword of Qi that he managed to rise to the top.
If he couldn't find it in this lifetime, Xiu 'er would be crippled.
If he could study it thoroughly, he could teach the Sword of Qi to Ice Dregs and Great-grandmother. At that time, it would be us chasing after the ancient demon.
Sugita Kenichi's body collapsed under the sharpness of the Sword of Qi. The sword aura burned the ancient demon's cells and destroyed its vitality.
The white sword aura broke through layers of walls and penetrated half of the building.
The building that was riddled with holes exploded with a bang, and flames soared into the sky. It should have cut something like a natural gas pipeline.
Two pieces of charred flesh fell, but it was still alive. It slowly wriggled, trying to repair itself.
Li Xianyu stood aside with the Sword of Qi in his hand. "You're not the owner of Kusanagi, right?"
Qing Shi didn't answer him and continued to repair its cells despite its dying struggle. Li Xianyu waited for it to recover and speak.
"Compared to the battle in Pantheon Palace, you've become stronger again." Qing Shi's voice didn't sound abnormal, but it was lower and weaker than before. "We've been observing you. You've been surrounded by people from not only the Buddhist Taoist Association and Bosch, but also the secret sentries of the major families. There's also us. We've sent people to disguise themselves as your neighbors, your primary school teachers, your high school classmates, and even the women you've slept with. "
"What, what did you say?" Li Qianyu staggered backward, her beautiful face pale.
This feeling was like catching a beauty online, but after taking a shower, you found a huge shadow hanging down from her nightgown.
Li Xianyu's situation was even more horrifying. He woke up to find out that the other party was a man, and he couldn't remember who was on the offense and who was on the defense last night.
"You didn't have any abnormalities in any aspect, so we gradually removed the hidden sentries around you. Until half a year ago, when you inherited the Peerless Fighting Soul, "Qing Shi said in a low voice." From ancient times until now, we have seen countless geniuses. We have experienced dozens of changes in dynasties. We have seen a group of monkeys develop civilization, establish political power, and even develop weapons that can threaten us. "
"But you know, no one has ever been like you. Your speed of advancement is too strange. There's no way to explain it. Because of some unknown reason, he had obtained the Self-Healing Arcana, which led to his Second Awakening, and his strength had skyrocketed. Because you obtained Demon Dao Wang Chen's relic, your Qi cultivation speed improved by leaps and bounds. These reasons can make ordinary people understand and accept your advancement speed. "
"However, when the length of your life is immeasurable, when you have seen trillions of people, and you are screened and compared in the long river of time, but no one like you has ever appeared, we are 100% certain that something is wrong with you."
"The reasons you have can fool ordinary people, but they can't convince us."
"What are you trying to say?" Li Xianyu frowned.
"I just want you to know that we have our eyes on you. We are only one step away, and we only need to confirm one thing …" Qing Shi suddenly paused and didn't continue.
"There is a saying that goes, 'Heaven has a path, but you don't take it, and you come to hell.'" Qing Shi finally revealed a strange smile. "Since Sugita Kenichi has set up a Hongmen Banquet in Kabukicho, the Tenjin Association has already made preparations to prevent any accidents."
Li Xianyu thought for a moment, and his expression changed drastically. His pupils shrank, and he killed Qing Shi's clone with a single slash. He took out his phone and shouted, "Elder Iwasaki, run!"
He opened his address book and called Great-grandmother. At the same time, he was vigilant of his surroundings. He retreated to the edge of the wall, but he didn't rush out.
"What's wrong?" Emperor Iwasaki's expression was solemn.
"We're in trouble," just as Li Xianyu finished speaking, the call was connected, and Great-grandmother's crisp voice came through, "What's wrong? I can feel that your manic aura has calmed down. That's not an ancient demon, right? "
That aura was in the Extreme Grade realm, but it wasn't very strong. That was why Great-grandmother didn't come to help immediately. She wanted to train her great-grandson.
Initially, Great-grandmother thought that her great-grandson would be defeated, and she would appear. But then, she realized that there was another aura in the building. It ruined her show of a hero saving her great-grandson.
"Yeah, we've won, but we're not completely out of danger. Great-grandmother, come over quickly."
What Master Qing told him was that the Ancient Demon hidden in Japan was nearby.
After Sugita Kenichi became Qing Shi's clone, he temporarily possessed the strength of the Extreme Grade realm. But Emperor Iwasaki was also an expert of the same level. Even if he was slightly weaker, he could still escape with his flashy methods.
Unless … unless someone was standing guard outside to prevent such a situation.
In the entire Japan, the only one who could hunt Emperor Iwasaki was the big boss behind the scenes.
In any case, for safety's sake, he should call Great-grandmother over. With her around, everything would be fine.
Li Xianyu told his guess to Emperor Iwasaki, and the latter thought about it and nodded. "I can't rule out that possibility."
"Pfft!"
A muffled sound suddenly came from the wall in front of them. Emperor Iwasaki saw something piercing through Li Xianyu's throat, and warm blood splattered on his face.
What was that?
As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, his consciousness fell into endless darkness.
Li Xianyu and Emperor Iwasaki's bodies rapidly withered and turned into paper figurines of the same height. When the paper figurines turned into ashes, their bodies appeared dozens of meters away.
Both of them broke out in a cold sweat at the same time, and their hearts were filled with alarm.
If it wasn't for Emperor Iwasaki's paper figurine substitute, they would've already killed the other party.
Kill。
Li Xianyu relied on his self-healing ability. Even if he didn't die on the spot, it would only be a matter of convenience.
"Great-grandmother, help!" Li Xianyu yelled at the phone.
"Mhm." Great-grandmother nodded and hung up the phone.
"I took a trip to the gates of hell." The old man looked at the place where he was standing with lingering fear. There was a thumb-sized hole in the wall. The attacker had used some unknown method to pinpoint their location and attacked them from outside the building, just like a sniper.
They moved around in the spacious building, constantly changing their position, on guard against any sneak attacks.
"How could this be?" Emperor Iwasaki was in disbelief. "I'm just a half-step Extreme Grade Arcanist. If Kenichi Sugita was arranged, why did he attack personally?"
Li Xianyu thought about it and sincerely apologized. "I'm sorry."
Emperor Iwasaki looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"Do you believe in the nosy physique? No matter where you go, no matter what mission you carry out, you will enter hell mode."
"Stop joking. There's no such thing in this world."
"Senpai, even if you're a Japanese, I'll still treat you as a good friend."
“？？？”
As they chatted, the two were vigilant of their surroundings and constantly changing their position.
Even with their five senses, they didn't sense any danger approaching them. From this, it could be seen that the attacker was very proficient in sneak attacks. Of course, it was also because they had been through a tough battle and were almost exhausted.
"Behind me!" Emperor Iwasaki suddenly shouted a warning and rolled to the side at the same time. A faint purple beam shot through the wall at him. It was already amazing that he could dodge it, but Li Xianyu didn't have the time to do so.
The beam shot over with a sharp force that made his brow bone sting.
Li Xianyu only had enough time to block it with his sword!
The purple beam collided with the Ki Sword and exploded into colorful halos.
Li Xianyu didn't even have time to retract the Ki Sword and rolled to the side just like Emperor Iwasaki.
"Pfft, pfft, pfft."
The spot where he was standing was pierced by several faint purple beams.
What exposed their position?
Li Xianyu turned his head to look at Emperor Iwasaki who was drenched in sweat. His heart skipped a beat.
After a tough battle, both of them were exhausted. Their hearts were beating uncontrollably like ordinary people after a long run.
"Adjust your breathing and suppress your heartbeat. Old man, what can you do? We can't go on like this. "Li Xianyu shouted.
Dodging one beam was already very difficult. If there were thousands of them, he and Emperor Iwasaki would die without a doubt. Li Xianyu believed that Emperor Iwasaki definitely had a way because he was a Onmyoji. The biggest characteristic of a Onmyoji was that they had many tricks up their sleeves.
Iwasaki Tento sighed and took out a talisman from his sleeve. The talisman burned, and the dust in the air solidified. The cement fragments floated in the air, and the interior of the building seemed to have turned into a vacuum. Everything from dust particles to fist-sized cement blocks floated in the air, motionless.
"Nine o 'clock wind direction." Emperor Iwasaki said.
Li Xianyu immediately became alert and easily dodged the purple beam.
"Not bad, old man. This way, we can stall until my grandmother arrives." Li Xianyu was pleasantly surprised.
Emperor Iwasaki must have used some kind of earth magic to make the dust and cement float in the air. It looked like countless guards surrounding the two of them.
Once the purple beam touched any of the "guards", even if it was just a small piece of dust, Emperor Iwasaki would sense it and warn them in advance to avoid the danger.
This was the foundation of a veteran expert. Although their cultivation speed wasn't as terrifying as his, they had many tricks up their sleeves and could adapt to different environments and terrains.
On the other hand, Li Xianyu's cultivation speed was miraculous. He was powerful, but he didn't have many tricks up his sleeves and his shortcomings were obvious.
The two of them dodged several light purple attacks in a row, skillfully and easily.
Soon, Great-grandmother would arrive soon. Just as Li Xianyu was thinking about this, he heard Emperor Iwasaki's slightly frightened voice:
"Be careful, he's coming!"
The next moment, a surging aura hit them like a tsunami.
There was no time for Li Xianyu to think. He instinctively responded by turning around and slashing with the sword of qi. The sword of qi missed, and he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. His right hand was cut off by an unknown sharp aura.
Li Xianyu's vision darkened. He almost screamed in pain as if his soul was being eroded.
The pain was too familiar. He had experienced it once in the Pantheon Temple. It seemed to contain some kind of terrifying power. Once a wound was inflicted on one's body, the order would corrode one's cells and destroy one's soul.
After he was resurrected, he heard from the big eagle sister that it was Ice Dregs who persistently pieced his Primordial Spirit together in the Pantheon Temple and brought it back.
Not to mention how it was done, the shattering of the Primordial Spirit was enough to prove how terrifying it was.
The master of Kusanagi Sword was here!
The arm fell to the ground, and the sword of qi emitted a white light that scattered in the surrounding space.
A tall humanoid creature appeared in front of Li Xianyu. It looked the same as the other ancient monsters. Its body was covered in a layer of flesh and blood. The color was bright, dangerous, and poisonous.
However, it had an extra tail, a thick and long tail.
The tip of the tail was sharp and had a bone spur.
"Ant." The purple humanoid creature snorted. While Li Xianyu was in a trance due to the pain, it swung its long tail. The bone spur at the tip of the tail made a sharp whistling sound in the air.
What happened next was beyond Li Xianyu's expectation. The bone spur pierced through the indestructible slime between his eyebrows.
After three months, he experienced the feeling of death again. He was powerless to resist.
"I wonder if I can be resurrected after I die this time." He thought to himself.
Death did not come. The bone spur was stuck when it was about to pierce through his brow bone.
Dozens of talismans floated around the purple humanoid creature. They glowed brightly and formed a powerful magnetic field, preventing the tail spur from piercing through Li Xianyu's head.
"I can't hold on for long." Emperor Iwasaki threw out a talisman and stuck it on Li Xianyu's body. It was a talisman that could clear one's mind.
The purple humanoid creature only shook lightly and broke the talisman formation. The bone spur stopped in mid-air for less than a second and continued to pierce towards Li Xianyu.
At the critical moment.
"F * ck, don't die. If you die, I'll die with you," the slime roared.
It was the slime. It grabbed the bone spur and prevented Li Xianyu's head from being pierced.
"F * ck, didn't you want me to die? But thanks. "
"You can die any way you want, but you can't be killed by this guy. Its attack is too strange. It can even cause fatal damage to me." The slime had experienced the power of this guy and did not dare to try again.
"F * ck, it's all Wangchen's fault," it said angrily.
"It's all Wangchen's fault." Li Xianyu agreed. In any case, scolding Wangchen was politically correct. It could improve his relationship with the slime and win its approval.
The slime had bought him a very crucial time. After regaining consciousness, Li Xianyu grasped his left hand again and grabbed the bone spur tightly. He took a deep breath.
The surrounding white light rushed into his mouth and sank into his dantian.
Li Xianyu used the method taught by Li Bai to spit out sword qi.
"Crack!"
The sharp sword qi directly cut off the ancient demon's tail. It soared into the sky and disappeared through the layers of the ceiling.
Li Xianyu quickly retreated and at the same time, threw away a small section of the bone spur.
"It hurts, it hurts!" the slime howled. The skin on its left hand was torn and the cells were wriggling. However, it was corroded by some kind of poison and could not heal for a long time.
The purple humanoid creature let out an angry roar. It was furious that its tail had been cut off by the sword qi. There was a sonic boom under its feet as it shot towards Li Xianyu. It was as fast as lightning. Not even its afterimage could be seen.
The shadow of death loomed over Li Xianyu again. He realized in despair that the gap between him and the creature was too big. Even when he was at his peak, he would not be able to fight it, let alone now that he was exhausted.
Even when I was at my peak, I could only cooperate with Great-grandmother to fight it. He heard the wind behind him and was about to sacrifice the slime again to block the creature's attack.
At this time, another explosion was heard. "Peng!" Two objects moving at high speed collided with each other.
His great-grandmother had arrived. Li Xianyu stopped in his tracks in pleasant surprise. At the same time, he turned around and drew his Sword of Qi.
He wanted to catch the creature off guard and increase Great-grandmother's advantage. The sword of energy missed its target because the purple humanoid had been sent flying by his great-grandmother's attack.
