CHAPTER 375: CHAPTER 375: FORMLESS SKY DEMON REALM

The attackers in close combat also suffered, as they were hit by an impartial impact of Qi Force at close range. The shockwave passed through their bodies, rupturing capillaries all over, making their bones creak.

The tsunami-like Qi Force struck down, sending them flying uncontrollably, only stabilizing their figures dozens of meters away.

Yet before they could catch a breath, the near-material Glazed Glass Sword Gang arrived in a flash, precisely targeting the vital points around their bodies.

Clang, clang, clang~

The fierce sword edge flew up and down, as if wielded by a Sword Immortal who returned to the basics. Every move and strike aimed directly at the vital spots, causing everyone to break into cold sweats.

No fancy techniques or unnecessary moves; the refined sword techniques, stripped of all adornments, weren’t complex at all but simply couldn’t be stopped!

Within a few brief moments, deep and sinister sword scars started to appear on everyone’s bodies.

Elsewhere, Zhu Haomiao squinted his eyes, mystical divine light emanating from his brow, perceiving every detail within hundreds of meters as if observing patterns on his palm, while simultaneously manipulating dozens of Sword Gangs for long-range attacks.

[Spiritual Rhinoceros]

[Star Fall]

[Imprisonment]

The combination of three Great Perfection extraordinary powers created an incomprehensible terrifying effect for mortals.

On the chaotic ground, Liu Ruyan hid in a corner, peering at the heavenly battle with eyes wide as saucers.

The young man standing high in the sky looked elegant and calm, in stark contrast to the embattled figures around him.

One must know, each of them was a First-grade Grandmaster of the Jianghu, whose mere stomp could shake the entire [Da Zhen] thrice!

Yet such powerful existences were actually being effortlessly crushed by a single youthful boy, revealing signs of miserable defeat!

Liu Ruyan’s gaze involuntarily fixed on the black-clad boy, unable to comprehend how Li Lin could have undergone such earth-shattering changes in just a few months!

Just a few months ago, he was far from as terrifying as he was now, even her steel needles could have turned him into a porcupine and allowed her to escape from his grasp...

Could it be... he hadn’t been serious back then?

As Liu Ruyan questioned her perception, the battle in the sky gradually reached a fever pitch.

The fierce and dangerous Sword Gang stuck like a festering wound, each move aimed at vital points, under the suffocating pressure, their defenses gradually deformed and finally shattered, exposing their vulnerable flesh.

"Aoooo!"

Sword light flashed, severed limbs flew through the air, a drizzling blood rain fell from the sky, gruesome human stumps dropped to the ground, writhing in agony like desperate dying beasts.

Swoosh~

Dozens of Glazed Glass Sword Gangs encircled Shangguan Yi, sealing off the space several meters around him, the cold Sword Qi penetrating to the marrow, sending chills down his spine.

Frowning, he glanced around, sensing the impending arrival of death and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

Even if I die, I will take a bite of you!

Noticing that his opponent, like a beast cornered, aroused ferocity, Zhu Haomiao smiled with interest.

"No wonder the Sect Hierarch of the Demon Sect, the leader of the underworld, could withstand my sword force for so long..."

Listening to the boy’s praise, Shangguan Yi felt no joy, only unprecedented humiliation.

One may kill a warrior but cannot insult him!

How dare a sixteen-year-old brat mock and shame me like this!

Keenly aware of a misunderstanding, Zhu Haomiao sincerely explained.

"You might not understand the value here. While I can’t elaborate, as a mere First-grade Grandmaster, standing against three doors... hm, you have the right to be proud..."

Even one Basic Force practiced to a High Realm could challenge a level up!

Now, Zhu Haomiao was the amalgamation of three Perfect Basic Strengths. Theoretically, he should be able to kill enemies a level up effortlessly, like killing chickens, but Shangguan Yi endured it and remained mostly unharmed!

He’s practically a superhuman!

Shangguan Yi: "..."

A mere First-grade Grandmaster?

Mere?

Who taught you to speak like that?!

Is it your problem or mine?

Seeing his opponent gritting his teeth and glaring at him, Zhu Haomiao sighed softly, feeling a sadness of being misunderstood.

I sincerely meant every word; why can’t you foolish natives believe it?

Helplessly pursing his lips, Zhu Haomiao lifted his gaze, raising an eyebrow slightly.

Swoosh~

Dozens of Glazed Glass Sword Gangs shot forward like a gale, forming a sword formation of peerless Sword Immortals with minds as one, tearing through Shangguan Yi’s defenses in mere moments.

Yet, just as Zhu Haomiao was about to sever his limbs and turn him into a human stick, an ethereal sigh, neither male nor female, echoed beside him.

"Alas~"

"Please, Duke Yu, stay your sword."

Swoosh~

Engulfed in the sword formation, Shangguan Yi vanished in an instant, pulled over a hundred meters away by some mysterious force, suddenly appearing on the ground.

Despite the extraordinary power of [Spiritual Rhinoceros], it only captured a fleeting ripple of space-time. Zhu Haomiao tilted his head toward the depths of the [Holy Hero Hall], observing a hunched, diminutive figure slowly emerge from the shadows.

"Granny Hua?!!"

Seeing that familiar yet unfamiliar figure, Liu Ruyan cried out in disbelief, her mind in a flurry.

In her memories, Granny Hua, who had cared for her since childhood, was just an ordinary mortal.

But now, she was surrounded by eerie, twisted True Qi, her face obscured, emanating a terrifying aura that made one shiver.

On the other side, watching Granny Hua stride forward, Zhu Haomiao chuckled, pulling at the corners of his mouth.

"So you’re indeed not dead, First Demon Sect Leader·Gui Hua."

Upon hearing this, the hunched Granny Hua slowly straightened her back, her withered limbs rapidly elongating and expanding, the bark-like wrinkles and age spots quickly fading, her sallow skin turning fair and luminous in an instant.

With just the movement of straightening up, the previously shriveled old woman disappeared completely, replaced by a tall, voluptuous beauty whose features remained indistinct, gender ambiguous.

Narrowing his eyes slightly, even though Gui Hua was shrouded in a layer of bizarre, twisted True Qi, making it difficult to see clearly, Zhu Haomiao still felt a supernatural allure piercing his soul.

The desires suppressed deep within his sea of consciousness were stirred, boiling like bubbling hot water.

"I have hidden for centuries; no one should remember me now..."

The strange voice, neither male nor female, neither old nor young, lingered in the air. Zhu Haomiao bit his tongue, suppressing the pink haze in his eyes, and lifted the corner of his mouth slightly.

"Yue King Luo Ming told me to be cautious of you."

Upon hearing this, Gui Hua nodded helplessly and sighed lightly.

"He always did talk too much..."

"Haha, the older a person, the greater a treasure; I just didn’t expect you were truly still alive!"

With keen interest, Zhu Haomiao observed Gui Hua’s transforming and writhing form, raising an eyebrow slightly.

"Is this the Formless Sky Demon Realm?"
