Eternal Sacred King Chapter 171

 Chapter 171: It’s a Good Opportunity to Kill All of You

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The moment the girl in pink removed her veil, everyone’s breathing froze for a moment.

Even though the many disciples of fiend sects had seen that peerlessly beautiful face before, they could still feel an unprecedented sense of amazement looking at it once again such that they forgot to breathe for a moment.

Su Zimo was momentarily stunned as well.

Any words that could describe the girl in pink’s beauty seemed inadequate at the moment.

But very quickly, Su Zimo’s eyes regained clarity. Frowning, he murmured softly, “Ji Yaoyan?”

He recalled the scene of how he met Gu Xi and the gu xi back in Sky Treasure Auction House previously and gradually came to a realization.

Besides, he could see traces of Ji Yaoxue from the girl in pink’s appearance.

“She’s your elder sister?” Su Zimo asked coldly.

Smiling with pursed lips, the girl in pink nodded.

She believed that she would not have to say much for someone of Su Zimo’s intelligence to guess her identity.

With that relationship, he would not kill her even if she was the pure maiden of the fiend sects!

True enough.

The killing intent in Su Zimo’s eyes disappeared. His expression changed as he asked in a deep voice, “What’s going on here. Why are the fiend sects gathered here?”

“Have you heard of the seven fiend sects?” Ji Yaoyan did not reply and asked instead.

Su Zimo shook his head.

“HA...!”

A snicker came from the side.

Many of the fiend sect disciples looked at Su Zimo in disdain as though they were looking at a dead man.

The black robed cultivator of Malevolent Earth Sect was the only one who pouted his lips and lamented internally, “Continue pretending. I don’t believe anyone from an immortal sect wouldn’t have heard of the seven fiend sects!”

Ji Yaoyan said, “The so-called seven fiend sects refers to Illusion Fiend Cult, Zenith Sect, Overlord Palace, Hidden Death Sect, Pure Maiden Sect, Cloud Rain Sect and Malevolent Earth Sect.”

“These seven sects are all top factions in Tianhuang Mainland. Any one of the mighty figures or patriarchs in the sect is more than enough to destroy all five major sects of the Great Zhou Dynasty.”

When he heard that, Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat.

Even though Ji Yaoyan’s comment did not sound like a big deal, there was a warning in it – she was telling Su Zimo not to reveal his identity!

Otherwise, Ethereal Peak could be destroyed because of this!

“The few people standing at the front are the fiend heirs of the various fiend sects. That purple robed cultivator is from Illusion Fiend Cult, the blood robed cultivator is from Zenith Sect, the buzz cut cultivator is the lunatic from Overlord Palace. As for the assassin that tried to kill us previously, he’s the fiend heir of Hidden Death Sect, the thousand-faced assassin.”

Ji Yaoyan pointed at the few of them and Su Zimo swept his gaze across the crowd before finally looking back at Ji Yaoyan. “Which sect’s fiend heir are you?”

“Hehe, I’m from Pure Maiden Sect,” Ji Yaoyan blinked her eyes and smiled playfully.

If Ji Yaoyan had not admitted it personally and Su Zimo was not there to witness, he would not have imagined that the innocent girl with a bedazzling smile right in front of him was someone from the fiend sects!

“The fiend heirs are gathered here for the inheritance of this place. Because the lineage of the Pure Maiden Sect is passed down alone, I don’t have helpers like the rest of them! So, you’ve got to help me!” Ji Yaoyan raised her fist and said with anticipation.

“Demoness Ji, there’s an ancient spirit lock formation here. If you want to obtain the inheritance against Lunatic Pang, we’ll have to join forces,” The fiend heir of Illusion Fiend Cult suddenly said.

Ji Yaoyan whispered, “Of the seven fiend sects, Overlord Palace is the strongest in melee combat. That buzz cut cultivator’s name is Pang Yue, you’ve got to be wary of him.”

Even without Ji Yaoyan’s reminder, Su Zimo would definitely watch out for that person.

To be precise, he was watching out for every single one of those fiend heirs!

If the seven fiend sects were as fearsome as Ji Yaoyan had said, how could the fiend heirs present be that easy to deal with?

Right then, Pang Yue of Overlord Palace suddenly opened his eyes. There was an excited glint in his gaze as he said slowly, “We’re all from fiend sects, so let me remind all of you. Anyone that wishes to withdraw should do it now. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not giving any face if we were to start fighting later on!”

Those were overbearing words.

He was the only person from Overlord Palace. While the other six sects had the advantage of being able to join forces, this man was not only unafraid, he was even threatening them instead!

It wasn’t because Pang Yue was the strongest amongst the fiend heirs – it was due to the presence of the ancient spirit lock formation. With everyone’s spirit energies locked, they could only rely on melee combat.

Overlord Palace was the strongest of the seven sects in terms of melee combat.

The presence of the ancient spirit lock formation was also a boon for Su Zimo.

If it was a proper clash, he would not be a match for the fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect. However, he could suppress the latter in melee combat!

“We’ll definitely join forces.”

Suddenly, the fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect said, “However, we’ve got to kill the outsider before joining forces. Otherwise, he’s just an eyesore!”

The Malevolent Earth Sect heir’s gaze fell onto Su Zimo – it was obvious who he was referring to as the outsider.

Having suffered a huge loss and nearly dying in the hands of Su Zimo, he was naturally not going to let this off.

Shangguan Yu waved his fan and nodded, saying in a gentle voice, “That sounds about right. No matter what, this is an internal struggle of the fiend sects. It won’t be nice to let outsiders see it.”

“Fufufufu!”

Suddenly, Su Zimo burst out into laughter. He surveyed the surroundings and declared loudly, “You want to kill me?”

The many fiend sect disciples had cold expressions, carrying a mocking look in their eyes.

However, Su Zimo continued, “How rare for you fiend heirs to be gathered today. It’s a good opportunity to kill all of you!”

“And you.”

Su Zimo looked at the fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect and said indifferently, “You were lucky to escape earlier on. Hand over your life now!”

When they heard that, everyone was stunned.

Malevolent Earth Sect’s heir had exchanged blows with the green robed cultivator?

And... he was not a match for the opponent and had to escape?

What was the background of this person?

Before anyone could finish their thoughts, Su Zimo’s body swayed and he pulled out the Cold Moon Saber on his waist – he was taking the first move! Rushing towards the group from Malevolent Earth Sect, he dashed with such speed that it left a flurry of afterimages.

“Oh?”

Pang Yue remarked in slight surprise as the excitement in his eyes intensified.

With his eyesight, he could naturally tell how powerful the burst of that simple action from Su Zimo was.

“Interesting.”

Pang Yue smiled as though he had found a prey.

“Everyone, please assist me! That person is from the immortal sects!”

The Malevolent Earth Sect heir retreated swiftly and hollered.

He had witnessed Su Zimo’s strength earlier on and was naturally not stupid enough to fight the latter head on.

“Someone of the immortal sects!”

“Such guts!”

“You’re asking for death!”

Upon hearing the words ‘immortal sect’, many fiend sect disciples let out their killing intents. They pulled out their weapons and rushed forth, surrounding Su Zimo.

Su Zimo swung his Cold Moon Saber and descended from the skies – it was as though he wanted to slice the voids into half!

Even though the fiend heir managed to dodge it, two other Malevolent Earth Sect cultivators were caught in it.

The two of them did not have time to think as they exerted strength in both arms and channeled their blood. Raising the saber in their hands, they pushed and defended upwards!

Clang!

Three sabers collided into one another.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The sabers of the two Malevolent Earth Sect cultivators shattered as the both of them shook violently as though they were struck by thunder. Coughing out fresh blood, they were sent flying.

Everyone was shocked.

A single slash had contained such terrifying might!

Chapter 172: One Against Five!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Zimo was not someone who would just give in and surrender.

Ignoring the fact that there was an ancient spirit lock formation that restricted everyone’s spirit energies, he would not have surrendered without it.

Furthermore, he had a deep hatred for fiend sects to begin with. This was a rare opportunity for him. Even if he could not manage to kill all six fiend heirs, he would not let them receive their inheritance that easily.

A chilling intent gushed at him from the sides. Through the corner of his eye, Su Zimo caught sight of many sword shadows. The sword shone with a sinister glow that was dizzying.

The fiend heir of Illusion Fiend Cult!

The power of that attack was not strong. In fact, it was even weaker than the power burst forth from the fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect.

However, in the hands of the fiend heir of Illusion Fiend Cult, the sword seemed to transform endlessly and it was difficult to differentiate from illusion and reality.

Su Zimo frowned slightly – he actually had to dodge to the side against that attack.

This was a completely brilliant sword technique.

Strength wasn’t the only factor in melee combat.

Speed, defense and techniques were all embodiments of combat strength.

Even though Su Zimo preferred the strength of sabers, he did not know of many techniques. He merely rotated between a few moves and made use of pure brute force.

Against the brilliant sword techniques of the Illusion Fiend Cult heir, Su Zimo was actually forced to retreat momentarily and had no way of retaliating.

“Swoosh!”

On the other side, there was a flash of blood, emitting a strong, pungent smell.

The blood light wasn’t truly blood – it was light from the saber.

The Zenith Sect heir wielded a crimson red saber that was sinister and felt as though blood was flowing within it.

The intensity of that bloodlust was so strong that even Su Zimo felt suffocated.

Su Zimo had survived an entire year in the Cang Lang Mountain Range and had been through all sorts of bloody scenarios.

However, the attack from the Zenith Sect heir still had Su Zimo feeling as though he was faced with a mountain of corpses. It was extremely devastating and sapping!

Swoosh!

A folding fan opened and swirled in front of Su Zimo. The clouds on it seemed as though they were about to rain.

Su Zimo merely took a single glance when he felt his mind go adrift. A surge of uncontrollable lust was rising under his abdomen!

“Not good!”

Su Zimo’s had a great shock.

It was a similar feeling to breathing in the Joyful Reunion Powder of Joyful Sect!

However, Shangguan Yu’s method was many times more brilliant than the Joyful Sect cultivators!

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Malevolent Earth Sect heir who was forced to retreat earlier. Charging back once more, he shook the bone spear in his hands and stabbed forth!

With the combined attack of four fiend heirs, Su Zimo was like a small boat in a furious ocean that could capsize at any moment!

All of a sudden!

A sense of danger flashed in Su Zimo’s mind once more.

A bone chilling killing intent had resurfaced!

Hidden Death Sect’s assassin had struck.

The thousand-faced assassin was unlike Pang Yue of Overlord Palace.

Pang Yue was standing at the side and watching everything coldly with his hands behind his back. Given his status and strength, there was naturally no way he would stoop down to joining forces with others.

However, the thousand-faced assassin was an assassin and his aim was to kill off his enemies. Naturally, it did not matter to him whether he had to join forces or whom he was joining forces with. All he bothered about was to find the most opportune moment to strike and obtain his assassination!

When she saw that, Ji Yaoyan’s eyes dimmed.

In the cultivation world, there were probably no more than five people who could survive a combined attack of five fiend heirs.

This Su Zimo before her was a nobody and was definitely not one of the five.

Suddenly, Ji Yaoyan felt a sense of regret.

Unlike Wu Xiangming, Yan Fei and the others, Su Zimo did not harbor any evil thoughts towards her.

Furthermore, he did not hurt her despite his immense hatred for those of the fiend sects after finding out that she was Ji Yaoxue’s younger sister.

This was a clear-minded and loyal individual who should not die at a place as such.

However, it was too late even if she regretted it.

Su Zimo, who was trapped in the middle, had no room to dodge – there was only one outcome awaiting him.

...

Amidst the shadows of swords and sabers, Su Zimo truly understood the terror of these fiend heirs.

This was even with the presence of the ancient spirit lock formation. If not for the restriction on their spirit energies, Su Zimo would most likely be seriously injured the moment they clashed.

How long have the seven fiend sects been around?

They had a lineage from the ancient era and were ranked alongside the immortal sects and Buddhism!

Ethereal Sect merely had a history of a couple thousands of years. There were countless sects like it since the ancient era and there were many more which had disappeared into the sands of time without any trace left.

As a disciple of Ethereal Peak, Su Zimo had merely been on the path of immortality cultivation for a mere two years. In terms of actual strength, he was no match for the fiend heirs of fiend sects at all.

However, what Su Zimo truly relied on was not his immortal cultivation techniques, it was The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness and the Void Thunder Manual!

Splash! Splash!

The sound of waves roaring echoed out as the earth seemed to collapse!

“Oh?”

Pang Yue’s ears quivered as a bright light shone in his eyes. He said in disbelief, “Tsunami blood?”

Bang! Boom! Boom!

Right on the heels of that, rolling thunder could be heard mixed in the tsunami sounds.

Su Zimo channeled his blood, causing his entire body to swell as his muscles tore through his clothes.

The strong and ferocious bloodline coursed through his limbs, suppressing the lust in his heart.

Su Zimo’s eyes regained their clarity. Against the entrapment of the five fiend heirs, he did not show the slightest bit of fear. Instead, his fighting spirit boiled as he bellowed, “Mystify!”

Thunder flashed in his palms as an extremely violent atmosphere filled the room.

With Su Zimo in the center, a blinding light burst out, forming a huge ring of lightning that spread in all directions.

At that moment, the five sense of the five fiend heirs were momentarily lost.

The true self of the Illusion Fiend Cult heir’s long sword revealed itself for a brief instance.

This was the saying that when fiends were one foot tall, the Dao was ten feet higher.

Su Zimo flipped his hand and slashed with his saber, clashing it heavily against the Illusion Fiend Cult fiend heir’s long sword. Sparks flew as ear-piercing sounds of metal clashing filled the air.

The Illusion Fiend Cult heir’s body shook as his expression turned incomparably pale. He staggered to his knee and fell backwards, landing on the ground with a stream of blood oozing from the side of his mouth.

Illusion Fiend Cult did not have any high quality body tempering techniques to begin with. The moment his sword technique was broken, there was no way he could withstand Su Zimo’s might!

“Thunder Spear!”

After Mystify, lightning condensed on Su Zimo’s palm once more, forming a long spear that coiled like an electric python. He flung it towards the Zenith Sect heir.

“Psst!”

The fiend heir gasped slightly.

In this place where everyone’s spirit energies were restricted, this green robed cultivator could release thunder art. Furthermore, the power of his thunder art was considerable!

There was no way the Zenith Sect heir would dare to proceed as he clutched his sword in front of his chest.

The thunder spear struck the middle of his blood red saber and lightning flash, extending from the blade to his body. The Zenith Sect heir trembled and his legs went limp, falling to the ground as well.

In the blink of an eye, two fiend heirs were severely injured.

At this moment, the effects of mystify had disappeared and Shangguan Yu’s fan cut at Su Zimo’s throat like a sharp blade.

The killing intent of the thousand-faced assassin was still locked onto Su Zimo, awaiting an opportune moment to strike.

At the same time, the Malevolent Earth Sect heir’s bone spear have carved a semicircle in midair, shrouding Su Zimo with a chilling, malevolent aura that was pitch black!Chapter 173: Manipulating the Situation

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Even though he forced back two fiend heirs in a row, the situation was still extremely dangerous for Su Zimo.

Right then, a chain tore through the air and coiled towards Shangguan Yu like a slithering wild snake.

It shone with a glistening cold light. There was a flash of fear in Shangguan Yu’s eyes and he did not dare to be careless, leaping back and retreating hurriedly.

“Demoness Ji, what are you doing?!”

Shangguan Yu chided with a narrowed gaze.

That chain was Ji Yaoyan’s weapon. When she saw that Su Zimo was trapped, she was filled with regret. However, even if she had struck then, she would not have been able to break him out of the predicament.

But the next moment, there was a sudden change.

With an incomparably powerful stance, Su Zimo burst forth with the power of his bloodline and forced back two fiend heirs with his thunder art – that caused a change in the situation.

Ji Yaoyan no longer hesitated and struck immediately.

With her addition, there was yet another change to the situation. Of the five fiend heirs, three of them were gone, leaving only the thousand-faced assassin and Malevolent Earth Sect heir.

Actually, among the five fiend heirs, the greatest threat to Su Zimo was the thousand-faced assassin.

That was because Su Zimo could not ascertain his location. Once the thousand-faced assassin appeared, it would definitely be a sure-kill attack!

In a flash, Su Zimo’s mind raced. He strode forward, grabbed his Cold Moon Saber with both hands and slashed at the bone spear.

The Malevolent Earth Sect heir smirked coldly.

He had long noticed that even though Su Zimo was strong, the latter did not know any saber techniques – that was Su Zimo’s greatest weakness.

However, it was different for Malevolent Earth Sect.

He alone had mastered five high quality spear techniques.

With a shake of his bone spear, it streaked across the air in a circular arc. While it may seem like a simple move, the landing point of the tip was unknown and could change at any moment.

When he saw Su Zimo’s attack, the Malevolent Earth Sect heir narrowed his eyes and barked coldly, “Die!”

He exerted strength in both arms and the bone spear trembled. It avoided the trajectory of the Cold Moon Saber and continued thrusting forth at Su Zimo’s chest!

Leaving his chest wide open, Su Zimo had revealed a fatal flaw.

Right then, a ghostly figure appeared from the crowd of fiend cultivators who had been surrounding them. It instantly appeared behind Su Zimo and stretched out its palm.

Under the watch of countless gazes, that initially empty palm produced a long, slender sword – it was as thin as cicada wings and extremely sharp!

No one could clearly see how the sword had appeared.

But at this moment, everyone knew the identity of the assailant – Hidden Death Sect’s heir, the thousand-faced assassin!

No one would be able to detect him if he did not make a move.

He might be at anyone’s side or even in front of them. However, they would not realize that the most terrifying assassin in the cultivation world had just passed them.

At this moment, Su Zimo was using his old moves to face the incoming bone spear of the Malevolent Earth Sect heir – it was too late for him to retract his saber and defend.

Su Zimo only had a single option left.

He had to dodge backwards.

At the same time, the thousand-faced assassin appeared and stabbed his sword, completely cutting off Su Zimo’s escape path!

The timing of the thousand-faced assassin was ingenious and frightening. Even if they were just watching, everyone could not help but feel a sense of dread.

On the other side, Ji Yaoyan was totally entangled by Shangguan Yu and could not get away.

In the blink of an eye, the tables had turned and Su Zimo’s life was on the line!

Pang Yue shook his head and the excitement in his eyes faded gradually.

To him, Su Zimo was already a dead man.

A dead man was not worthy of being his opponent.

No one noticed that Su Zimo, who was in the middle of the storm, had still eyes and a composed expression – he was frighteningly calm!

Under normal circumstances, Su Zimo would truly have no way out and could not react in time.

However, in this situation, he was deliberately letting out an opening!

If he did not do that, the thousand-faced assassin would never appear – that was too much of a threat for Su Zimo.

As the bone spear approached, Su Zimo swung back with his saber as though he had expected it. Without stopping at all, he bent down suddenly and slithered on the ground with his limbs like a giant python.

Upon seeing that, everyone’s eyes lit up and they were stunned.

Even though the dodging movement seemed somewhat odd, it avoided the incoming bone spear and long sword of the thousand-faced assassin perfectly. The beauty was in its precision – he had managed to turn that crisis into nothing!

“Alright!”

Pang Yue grinned as fighting spirit filled his eyes once more.

As for the Malevolent Earth Sect heir, his heart skipped a beat when he missed his attack. Without thinking, he exerted strength in his feet and retreated with his spear immediately.

A black shadow slid across the ground at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, it was right in front of him!

Su Zimo leaped up, his eyes brimming with killing intent as he slashed up with his Cold Moon Saber.

“Ah!”

The Malevolent Earth Sect heir exclaimed loudly and held his bone spear in front of his chest to defend.

Clang!

The moment the weapons came into contact, the Malevolent Earth Sect heir began to feel uneasy internally.

Even though his bone spear had collided with the Cold Moon Saber, it felt as though it was striking air and he could not feel any impact.

“This is bad. It’s a fake!”

The Malevolent Earth Sect heir’s heart sank.

Su Zimo scoffed coldly. The moment the Cold Moon Saber and the bone spear made contact, he sidestepped and dodged to the side.

A long and slender sword stabbed from behind, brushing by Su Zimo treacherously by a single hair’s breadth!

If he was half a step slower, or if he was entangled with the Malevolent Earth Sect heir, Su Zimo would not have been able to dodge that attack.

The expression of the Malevolent Earth Sect heir changed as his pupils constricted.

Almost at the same time that Su Zimo dodged, the sword stabbed over. In the midst of things, he had no time to react at all.

“Thousand-faced Assassin!”

The Malevolent Earth Sect heir shrieked and in a rather impressive display of swift reaction, he pulled the bone spear that defended his chest upwards.

The thousand-faced assassin felt a blur before his eyes. When the figure flashed, he realized that something was amiss and tried to retract his momentum.

Clang!

The long sword made contact with the bone spear.

Poof!

Right after, a flash of blood appeared.

The Malevolent Earth Sect heir groaned dully as his face turned pale and he trembled in pain.

That strike should have pierced his chest. However, because he used the bone spear to dodge and the thousand-faced assassin had retracted his momentum, the long sword merely pierced his shoulder.

At this moment, the thousand-faced assassin suddenly felt a sense of trepidation. A bone-chilling killing intent surged and enveloped his surroundings.

Not far away, Su Zimo loaded his bow.

He had four arrows left.

Now, all four of them were loaded on the bow that curved like a full moon – they were aimed at the thousand-faced assassin who had just appeared!

It was only now that the thousand-faced assassin realized... he was one Su Zimo wanted to kill the most!

If he had not appeared, Su Zimo would have to be on his toes and be extra wary of his assassination attempts. Even if the latter had a myriad of techniques, he might only be able to use less than half of them.

But now, not only had he failed his assassination attempted, his long sword was still stuck in the Malevolent Earth Sect heir’s shoulder and he could not pull it out yet!

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Four black beams descended, almost sealing off all routes of retreat for the thousand-faced assassin!

Upon seeing this, the spectating crowd suddenly had an illusion.

On the surface, it seemed like the five fiend heirs were attacking the green robed cultivator. However, the latter was actually taking the initiative to manipulate the situation and lead them in his direction right from the very beginning!

Now, even the mysterious thousand-faced assassin had fallen into this green robed cultivator’s trap.

Everyone could not help but entertain a flashing thought, “Who is this person?”

Chapter 174: Change in the Blood Pool

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Even though he knew that he had fallen into a trap, the thousand-faced assassin was still expressionless. Drawing his sword, he curled into a ball and spun in midair like a turtle.

The slender sword formed a beautiful, bedazzling sword beam around him.

This was an extremely famous defensive technique of Hidden Death Sect.

On the one hand, a curled body could reduce the possibility of one getting injured.

On the other hand, the rotational force combined with the sword’s dance would produce a barrier that could defend in all directions – even water would have difficulty penetrating it.

Cling! Clang!

Four black beams struck the spinning sword beam and let out a series of crisp sounds.

The four arrows were blocked!

Su Zimo shot the four arrows and casually threw his Sanguine Crystal Bow down. Without the slightest pause, his body flashed and he lunged towards the thousand-faced assassin as an icy, murderous aura emitted from the Cold Moon Saber in his hands.

Naturally, Su Zimo would not assume that he would be able to kill the fiend heir of Hidden Death Sect with just four arrows.

The four arrows were just his first attack – Su Zimo’s real killing blow was behind!

Even though the thousand-faced assassin had blocked the four arrows, he still had a slight pause in his actions due to their power.

By now, Su Zimo had arrived in front of him, aimed at his neck with a raised Cold Moon Saber without saying a single word!

Even though there was no technique involved in Su Zimo’s attack, he carried an unrivaled aura. As his blood surged, lightning flashed as well in a ferocious manner.

Without any way to dodge, the thousand-faced assassin could only face it head on.

It wasn’t because he did not want to dodge, it was because Su Zimo had forced him into a spot. Every single move was calculated to extreme precision such that he did not even have room to breathe.

“Clang!”

The long sword collided against the Cold Moon Saber and let out a jarring sound.

The thousand-faced assassin’s body quivered. His arms were sore and his palm was torn as fresh blood dripped – he could hardly hold his weapon any longer.

The sword was curved to a frightening degree from the great force of the Cold Moon Saber. Right as the saber was about to strike the thousand-faced assassin’s chest, a strange change happened!

Due to the bending of the thousand-faced assassin’s sword, its tip jumped in a strange manner and silently pierced towards Su Zimo’s throat as though it was alive.

If Su Zimo continued with his attack, the thousand-faced assassin would be severely injured at most. However, his throat would be pierced on the spot!

The assassination methods of Hidden Death Sect were unpredictable and beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Any single bit of carelessness could cause a person to lose their life.

A warning flashed in Su Zimo’s mind. From the corner of his eye, he caught the incoming sword tip and retracted his saber while kicking forward.

On the surface, it seemed like it was just a single kick forward. However, with Su Zimo’s bloodline and burst power, that kick was no different than the thrust of a huge spear.

All of a sudden!

As though he sensed something, Su Zimo changed his strategy at the last moment and retracted his foot.

On the other hand of the thousand-faced assassin was a dagger that appeared out of nowhere, waiting for Su Zimo’s leg to strike it.

“No wonder he’s the fiend heir of Hidden Death Sect.”

Su Zimo praised internally and felt a sense of regret.

He had laid down all these plans meticulously, thinking that he would be able to kill the thousand-faced assassin here. However, he did not expect that the latter would have been able to solve his complex attempts.

Of course, even though the thousand-faced assassin had managed to survive, he was not in the best position.

After enduring Su Zimo’s strike head on, the organs of the thousand-faced assassin were quaked. He did not dare to linger any longer, tunneling through the crowd and disappearing into a fork road with a single tap of his feet.

The threat of the thousand-faced assassin was temporarily removed, but no one could guarantee that he would not return later on.

“Everyone, let’s attack together and kill that punk first!”

The Illusion Fiend Cult heir shouted with an ashen expression.

The Zenith Sect heir nodded and waved his hand.

Once again, the fight resumed as cultivators of Illusion Fiend Cult, Zenith Sect and Malevolent Earth Sect gushed forth together.

At the other side, Shangguan Yu was losing his patience at Ji Yaoyan who was pestering him endlessly. He looked at her and frowned. “Demoness Ji, are you going to keep this up? Who is that punk to you?”

“Why do you care?”

Ji Yaoyan smiled and looked at Shangguan Yu playfully.

Waving his hand, the four beauties behind Shangguan Yu appeared in a flash.

“Don’t hold back, kill her!”

He pointed at Demoness Ji with an ice cold gaze.

“Hehe.”

Ji Yaoyan was not fazed in the slightest as she smiled. “Shangguan Yu, we don’t know who’s going to kill whom first.”

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

The four girls appeared around Ji Yaoyan and surrounded her. Using long swords, they moved in sync as though they had practiced a chain combo.

Ji Yaoyan retracted her smile and danced with her chain, forming an impenetrable barrier around her.

Circling around them waving his fan, Shangguan Yu looked to be casual. However, he was actually waiting for an opportune moment and was ready to strike and take Ji Yaoyan down!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

On the other side, a huge battle had broken out.

Against the combined attack of many fiend cultivators, Su Zimo wielded his Cold Moon Saber fearlessly and had a torrential killing intent. Using his keen spirit perception and immense defensive techniques, he held his ground in the crowd.

Poof! Poof! Poof!

fiend cultivators fell to the ground constantly with blood gushing from their bodies.

No one noticed that the bloodstains on the ground were all flowing towards the blood pool in the center as though they were being attracted by something!

Su Zimo’s bloodline did not have much power of thunder left and he could not release anymore thunder arts.

The enchanting sword techniques of the Illusion Fiend Cult, the murderous saber techniques of the Zenith Sect and the high quality and special spear techniques of the Malevolent Earth Sect caused quite a bit of trouble for Su Zimo.

Coupled with the fact that he was constantly besieged by the other fiend cultivators, Su Zimo could not guarantee that he would be able to get out unharmed as well.

The best he could do was to avoid any fatal damage while killing his opponents amidst the chaos – he had to trade their lives while taking the least possible damage!

Before long, Su Zimo’s body was bloodied – some of it was his own blood, but it was mostly the blood of the other fiend cultivators.

The three fiend heirs and the many fiend cultivators got more nervous the longer they fought.

The green robed cultivator seemed as though he could not get exhausted. At the same time, the wounds on his body did not seem to cause him much trouble either.

What they did not know was the horrifying vitality and regeneration speed of Su Zimo’s body – those minor wounds were nothing at all.

Dong!

Suddenly, a dull thud sounded from the place and the ground shook.

“Oh?”

Pang Yue squinted his eyes and focused at the blood pool nearby.

That dull sound came from the pool of blood.

Furthermore, at the same time that sound rang, a huge bubble appeared on the surface of the blood pool, forming ripples.

Many of the fiend cultivators were a little dazed.

Su Zimo did not hesitate. He strode forward and waved his hand, punching the chest of a fiend cultivator heavily.

Snap!

The sounds of bones cracking could be heard as the man’s chest caved in with the organs within ruptured.

Sent flying by that punch of Su Zimo, the man landed far into the distance and coincidentally into the pool of blood.

Almost instantly, the person’s flesh slid off his body into the blood pool and vanished, leaving only a spooky skeleton that floated for a brief moment on the pool’s surface before sinking as well.

Chapter 175: Killing a fiend heir

Many of the fiend cultivators saw what happened and their expressions changed slightly. However, their eyes burned with an intense gaze.

Su Zimo did not know what the inheritance of this place was. However, judging from their expressions, he could vaguely guess that the inheritance in that evil blood pool was about to be born!

But, no one dared to make any reckless moves after witnessing what happened to the cultivator that fell into the blood pool.

Right then, Shangguan Yu’s figure flashed. He took advantage of the moment when Ji Yaoyan was briefly distracted and sneaked in an attack.

The side of the folding fan was extremely sharp and a flash of blood appeared as it brushed past Ji Yaoyan’s arm.

“Ah!”

Ji Yaoyan could not help but exclaim as the pain turned her face pale.

“Oh?”

When he saw that, killing intent surged through Su Zimo’s eyes. With a swift leap, he jumped over the heads of the many fiend cultivators and charged at Shangguan Yu and the others.

Swoosh!

The Cold Moon Saber descended from the skies, slashing down with an unstoppable might.

Shangguan Yu’s expression changed. There was no way he would dare take that head on as he retreated while yelling, “Stop him! Everyone, let’s work together to kill that man!”

His first sentence was directed at the four beautiful women he brought along. The second was a call for all other fiend cultivators.

Swash! Swash! Swash!

The four beautiful women had clearly trained together in a combined attack technique as four long swords stabbed from different angles, making it impossible for anyone to dodge or retaliate.

Even though Ji Yaoyan was from a fiend sect, she was Ji Yaoxue’s younger sister after all.

With that relationship, Su Zimo had to ensure her safety!

Now that he saw Ji Yaoyan injured, Su Zimo could not care less. Facing the four incoming swords, he did not retreat or dodge. Instead, he slashed up with the Cold Moon Saber in his left hand and met an incoming sword with his right hand.

He coiled his hand around the sword!

Bam!

The sword let out a tremble as the woman wielding it exclaimed. Her palm was torn and she could no longer grip the sword, breaking the combo attack of the four of them momentarily.

Su Zimo’s figure flickered and afterimages lingered. Appearing before the woman in the blink of an eye, he leaned it.

With a bang, her body flew off like a kite that was snapped. By the time she landed, she was no longer breathing.

At the same time, Su Zimo flipped his hand and slashed with his saber, causing a cold light to swipe across the neck of another woman.

A bloody line appeared.

Shing!

A blood mist spewed out.

With just a casual brush and a single exchange of blow, two women from Cloud Rain Sect had died in Su Zimo’s hands.

He came to Ji Yaoxue’s side and asked, frowning, “How are you?”

“I’m fine, you don’t have to worry about me.”

She shook her head and indicated for her to watch out behind him.

Su Zimo spun around and glared at the incoming fiend cultivators coldly. Wielding his saber, he howled and charged into them once more.

Bang!

Even though the person in front blocked Su Zimo’s saber, he was still sent flying. By the time he landed on the ground, his arms were mangled and his bones crushed – he had lost all his battle prowess.

Su Zimo’s power of blood was way too strong.

The realm of tsunami blood was enough for him to crush all the fiend cultivators present!

Only the four fiend heirs could hold out against him with their intricate moves.

Dong!

At the moment, the familiar dull sound rang from the blood pool again as a splash appeared on the surface.

This time, the sound was even clearer and more powerful. It was as though a hammer had slammed heavily into everyone’s hearts.

Everyone present felt a tightness in their chest and their blood was in a mess. They could not help but frown.

Su Zimo suddenly felt an indescribable sense of danger.

This place was a little odd. It did not seem like it was just a simple inheritance ground as those of the fiend sects had said.

Su Zimo did not think too much about it. He was the first to recover with his surging bloodline as he rushed into the crowd towards the Malevolent Earth Sect heir.

“Ah!”

When he saw that Su Zimo was rushing at him, the Malevolent Earth Sect heir heaved a deep breath of air and bellowed. As he retreated, he shook the bone spear in his hands.

The other three fiend heirs snapped out of their stupor from the dull sound and helped the Malevolent Earth Sect heir immediately, forming an entrapment.

“Bang!”

Su Zimo stomped his feet on the ground, causing sand and gravel to fly everywhere as the earth trembled.

The Malevolent Earth Sect heir was caught off guard and broke into a stumble. That slowed his movements and revealed an opening.

Su Zimo’s eyes lit up. He casted Divine Steed Fleeting and cut through the crowd instantly, swinging his Cold Moon Saber upwards ruthlessly!

This was a completely one-sided attack.

Coupled with his terrifying burst speed, the Malevolent Earth Sect heir was still a step slower even as he tried his best to retreat. His chest was sliced open, causing blood to gush out and his organs were faintly visible.

“Ah!”

The Malevolent Earth Sect heir shrieked shrilly. Pale as a sheet, he looked down at his chest in horror.

While the seven fiend sects were fighting for the inheritance, if things were to go awry and any one party were to declare their surrender, the rest would not be so ruthless as to kill a fiend heir.

However, the Malevolent Earth Sect heir would have never imagined that he would come across such a malignant being in this place!

Upon seeing this scene, the other three fiend heirs felt a chill run down their spines.

Su Zimo swung left and right. Any fiend sect cultivators that stood before him either died on the spot or were sent flying with blood spraying out of them.

Arriving before the Malevolent Earth Sect heir, Su Zimo grabbed his head with a cold expression and swung his Cold Moon Saber horizontally.

“Pfft!”

A large head was chopped off!

Psst!

The fiend sect cultivators gasped.

They did not know which immortal sect had sent such a ruthless person who could kill the Malevolent Earth Sect fiend heir without batting a single eyelid!

Shangguan Yu and the Illusion Fiend Cult and Zenith Sect heirs retreated.

If the four of them were unable to kill this person, it was pointless now that there were only three of them left. They might even end up dying here.

“Lunatic Pang, are you just going to sit there and watch our fiend heirs get killed idly?”

Shangguan Yu asked with an ashen expression, “If you continue to sit by and do nothing, what would the other fiend cultivators think of you when news of this spreads back to the fiend sects?”

“Hahahaha!”

The Illusion Fiend Cult heir burst out in laughter. “They’ll only think that Lunatic Pang is a superficial reputation of yours! You’re nothing more than an empty shell who can only be arrogant within our fiend sects! When you come across anyone from immortal sects, you’re so scared that you don’t even dare to say a word!”

Upon hearing this, Pang Yue finally moved. He stood up from his spot as the fighting spirit in his eyes burned into two flames.

With just that single action, everyone present felt an overwhelming pressure!

It was as though there was a shadow of an ancient demon coming from Pang Yue, possessing unparalleled might that could even envelop the heavens!

“You don’t have to provoke me.”

Pang Yue said coldly, “If I were to attack, that person would be killed with extreme ease!”

As fiend heirs, each of them had tricks up their sleeves and were extremely intelligent.

When Su Zimo was fighting the other fiend heirs, it was the perfect opportunity to sit by and reap the spoils later – there was no way Pang Yue would get involved.

However, the inheritance object was about to be born.

Now that the other fiend heirs were fearful because of Su Zimo, it was the perfect timing for him to stand forth.
