Chapter 377: Chapter 377 Repel the Demon General_1

Damn it! I still underestimated that kid Ling Xiao!

Grant Valley Master Thomas was shocked to his core.

And just at that moment, suddenly, among the shadows of swords, a streak of light lashed out.

This light turned into a line, yet it was condensed with an extremely terrifying True Essence power.

Wind Sky Phenomenon: Flying Snow!

Puchi!

The dreadful Sword Qi directly penetrated Grant Valley Master Thomas’s throat, leaving behind a very small blood hole, and then his entire body was enveloped in an instant by a terrible chill and the pain of being torn.

His body began to crack inch by inch, becoming very horrific.

Crackling!

As that husk fell away, Grant Valley Master Thomas’s true form was revealed.

This person had blood-red skin, a face as blue as indigo, hair like cinnabar, and three eyes wide open, clearly quite different from the human race.

"So, you’re one of the Demon Generals under the Plague Demon King; it seems your strength hasn’t recovered as expected."

A string of information flashed through Ling Xiao’s mind; he had acquired a vast amount of data about this world from Baiyun Province Border General’s Mansion, White Cloud Temple, Governor’s Mansion, and also the Outer Moonlight Tower.

These things did not need to be understood, just remembered.

Thus he knew, the True Demon Emperor had seventy-two Demon Generals under the Plague Demon King, originally very powerful, but many were killed or injured in that battle with the Human Sacred Dynasty’s Twelve Sects.

Even if they were resurrected now, their cultivation level might not be as high as before.

The person before him should be one of the Plague Demon King’s Demon Generals.

"Kid, you’ve gone to great lengths, but all you’ve done is force out the true form of this Demon General. I’d like to see what else you can do!"

His heart was raging with fury.

He had encountered many Sect Disciples on various missions, even those at the Transcendent Realm Third Layer Apex, but no one had ever managed to force out his true form.

Yet this mere Half-step Grandmaster in front of him had forced him to reveal his true form, which, once damaged, could not be easily repaired in a short time.

"Hmm, there are many more tricks up my sleeve, want to try them?"

Ling Xiao couldn’t help but smile; he had actually not yet used his true strength in the battle so far.

He had not even used the Nine Demonic Divine Arts, let alone the Human-Dragon Form and the Ancient Golden Dragon Form.

While speaking, a virtual shadow of a glacier appeared behind him.

This was one of the components of the Mountain and River Martial Soul.

For Ling Xiao, this was also the first time he had used the Mountain and River Martial Soul in battle, but given the strength of his opponent, he dared not underestimate him.

"A Glacier Martial Soul? That’s quite rare!"

The Demon General frowned, realizing that from beginning to end, Ling Xiao had not yet used his Martial Soul in combat.

As soon as the Martial Soul appeared, Ling Xiao’s aura surged instantly.

"I really want to see how much tougher your body is compared to that shell!"

Glacier Power: Ice Heart: Wind Sky Phenomenon: Condensed Water!

It was a terrifying combination of Martial Skills.

The Glacier Power of the Mountain and River Martial Soul, the fourth move "Ice Heart" of the Snow Lotus Sword Technique, supplemented by the Aspect of Wind from the Twelve Golden Lotus Art.

It was finally executed with the third move "Condensed Water" from the Snow Lotus Sword Technique.

Suddenly, the air in the entire basement congealed, and a horrific chill filled the space.

Wherever the wind blew, it all turned to frost.

Even Shanɡ guan Lei and the other two, who were healing nearby, were so cold that they had to circulate their True Essence to resist the cold, cursing under their breath.

"Don’t even mention the Demon General who bore the brunt of it."

"Not good!"

The reason the Demon General wanted to use Grant Valley Master Thomas’s body was primarily because his true form was still very weak, and the borrowed shell, after special refinement, had become hardened.

Seeing how powerful Ling Xiao’s attack was at that moment, the Demon General instantly thought not of fighting, but of fleeing.

Even as he fled, he still left behind an arm, an arm that had been frozen into an ice pop, shattering into pieces as it hit the ground.

"Escaped?"

Ling Xiao retracted the Martial Soul phantom and also took back the Ice Dragon Sword. The cold in the basement dissipated all at once, and aside from the three brothers whose eyebrows and hair were covered in frost, there was no sign of the Demon General.

"Ling Xiao, you bastard, can’t you consider us for a moment? Do you want to freeze us to death?"

Wan Yan Jun’s injuries had largely healed, though it would still take quite some time for his strength to return.

On the ground, the blood-red skull pattern had disappeared along with the disappearance of the Demon General, and the terrible aura of evil energy oppression was gone.

He, Chen Zui and Shangguan Lei were finally able to move freely.

Although Wan Yan Jun cursed out loud, his heart was extremely shocked—the power of Ling Xiao’s attack was probably no less than his own.

What’s the situation here?

Is this guy really just an Outer Disciple?

Is he really just a Half-step Grandmaster?

"Brother, let’s not talk about that. If it weren’t for Ling Xiao today, we’d all be dead," Shangguan Lei couldn’t help saying.

His mentality was undergoing a subtle change.

From Wan Yan Jun and Chen Zui’s lack of help when he faced death, to their later attempt to kill him in exchange for the trust of the Demon General, to Ling Xiao’s intervention to save all three of them,

his fondness for those two plummeted, while his appreciation for Ling Xiao soared.

"Heh, that’s also true," Wan Yan Jun laughed, with no idea what scheme he was concocting, and suddenly turned to Ling Xiao and said, "Junior Brother Ling, how shall we divide the treasures of this basement?"

Inside the basement, although there had been a battle, those items were protected by Array Refining Stones and had not been destroyed.

Low-grade Spirit Stones, Martial Arts Secret Books below gold level, mediocre Spiritual Elixirs, Gold and Silver, ordinary weapons and armor.

Even though to Sect Disciples these things, except for Spirit Stones, might not be of much use,

to martial artists in the secular world, this was a true treasure trove.

Wan Yan Jun was even thinking of taking some back for his family.

But as soon as his words fell, Ling Xiao suddenly waved his hand, and everything belonging to the underground forces vanished without a trace, all claimed by Ling Xiao.

Both Wan Yan Jun and Chen Zui’s expressions changed drastically.

"Ling Xiao, what do you think you’re doing?"

"What am I doing? Hmph, I was the one who repelled the Demon General, and you three were the ones I saved. What right do you have to divide these things with me!"

After speaking, he no longer paid them any attention.

Wan Yan Jun and Chen Zui’s eyes flashed with even greater murderous intent, but they ultimately suppressed their anger. After all, the only one who knew about Array Formations in this place was Ling Xiao.

To get out of the basement, they had to break the Array Refining Stone on the Outer Sect Stone Gate, and since they needed Ling Xiao, they wouldn’t make a move right now.

"Heh, we were presumptuous. What Junior Brother Ling said is right, everything belongs to you, it’s all yours! So, shall we return to the Sect now?" Wan Yan Jun asked with a smile.

"The Demon General disappeared mysteriously, and since there’s a ’Plague Osteoporosis Array’ set up in the basement, there must be something fishy. I’ve already investigated it. Directly below the basement, there’s a larger Demon Cave; I suspect the master that the Demon General spoke of—the Plague Demon King—is likely in there," Ling Xiao analyzed without immediately intending to return to the Sect.
