Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Fist Technique Deduction
Chapter 275 - 43: Siege

Chapter 275: Chapter 43: Siege

On horseback, Lin Yuan’s thoughts drifted.

Aside from wanting to quell the water demon menace quickly, he also had a hint of anticipation about slaying the water demons.

Because just two days ago, during the rescue of Panglu, he killed a crocodile demon, which was slightly different from the ordinary rat-headed water demons he had killed before.

When he killed the crocodile demon, he clearly felt the Nine Chapters within him stir.

The crocodile demon seemed to possess a power akin to the divine soul power of a ghost Taoist, allowing him to absorb the demonic power from it after killing it.

Ordinary water demons didn’t have this effect.

"Killing a demon that’s graded can help me deduce martial arts insights." Joy flashed in Lin Yuan’s eyes.

He was very eager to deduce the third realm.

The third realm of martial arts insights is the threshold to the Lingyuan Realm. Comprehending the Wu Xiang Realm is actually very difficult.

Many martial artists in the Qiaomai Realm can use countless elixirs to accumulate enough vitality. But if they can’t comprehend the third realm, Qiaomai becomes the end of their martial path.

He was very aware of his own talent. Originally, his focus in cultivating the third martial realm was on disciples of the demonic sect, particularly those who cultivated divine soul power.

But now, with graded demons, another path appeared. It was like seeing a glimmer of hope.

Though it seemed early to step into the Lingyuan Realm, Lin Yuan was already planning to break through as soon as he condensed 360 apertures.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan couldn’t help but look forward to more water demons, "More crocodile demons, don’t disappoint me."

As Lin Yuan galloped swiftly, the Xianyin Bay Monster-Suppressing Hall was austere and tense.

Xianyin Bay was the main channel flowing into the Heidra’s Office area. All other tributaries branched from it, flowing towards various villages and towns.

The Monster-Suppressing Hall of Xianyin Bay stood on a flat terrain above the river bay.

At this moment, countless rat and crocodile demons lay quietly lurking in the bay.

Pairs of dark red eyes occasionally glanced at the distant towering hall.

At the moment, the area around the Monster-Suppressing Hall was densely packed with greenish-blue water demons. There were ordinary rat-headed demons, as well as first-grade crocodile demons, fish demons, and mucus-dripping shape-shifting leech demons.

Most prominently in the center was a massive green-black snake demon. Its body was extremely thick, with a snake form almost as wide as a barrel. Its long body coiled in the shallow water, leaving only a tail section creating waves in the water.

Its sinister white fangs were exposed, a forked scarlet tongue flickered, producing hissing sounds. Black aura swirled around it, and its presence instantly caused the surrounding waterways to yellow and wither.

The snake demon flicked its tongue as its hood expanded.

Hiss, hiss.

A bizarre serpent call sounded.

A massive head suddenly emerged from the river behind it.

The monster looked like a lizard’s head, full of sharp fangs. Its flattened head resembled a shadowy hidden salamander. Its body was covered in black spikes, flickering with cold glints, leaving no doubt about their sharpness, capable of easily tearing steel plates.

However, the spikes on its back seemed to have been cut in half by a blade, with only the roots remaining.

Splashing.

The water demon suddenly emerged from the water, its ten-zhang long body fully appearing on the surface.

Like a sturdy leg dragging a thick tail, it twisted as it slowly crawled towards the Monster-Suppressing Hall.

Inside the hall, Chu Yubo, the Palace Master of Ningping Town’s Academy, led all the elders, standing ready.

From the tower of the Monster-Suppressing Hall, they could clearly see the situation along the river.

"It’s the Wa fish demon, one of the three major demons under the snake demon." One elder said with a serious face, unable to suppress an exclamation.

Besides the leading snake demon, its three subordinates were all second-grade water demons, comparable to human Qiaomai martial artists. Moreover, with their size and strength, they were inherently stronger than typical Qiaomai martial artists.

Apart from the Palace Master and the elders in charge of transmission and enforcement, many other elders showed worry on their faces.

Because in Ningping Town, only the Palace Master and the two elders had entered the Qiaomai Realm.

Apart from them, everyone else would only serve as food before the Wa fish demon.

Chu Yubo needed no reminder from others to understand the water demons’ movements. He softly said, "That snake demon is finally making a move."

Beside him, a tall and thin old man was equally grave: "The water demons have been suppressed by Lu Rong for years, only daring to hide in the depths of the Black Dragon Pool. Now that Lu Rong has left, they are causing chaos on the shore. I fear someone is stirring trouble behind the scenes."

On the left, a hawk-nosed old man’s eyes flashed with rage: "How can just Ningping Town resist such second-grade demons? Why hasn’t the Office sent reinforcements?"

"Why hasn’t the new official arrived? Does he want to see our Ningping Town Academy wiped out?"

His words were clear to everyone. Almost everyone felt extreme fear in this situation because, on the surface, they were no match for these water demons.

Not to mention the countless lower-level water demons lurking in the water.

In the distant sky, a purple flash of lightning flickered.

Rumbling!

Spring thunder boomed, and the sky started drizzling with rain.

The dim sky grew hazy.

Yet the rain let the water demons surrounding the land slowly wriggle toward the Monster-Suppressing Hall.

The Wa fish demon, like a charging general, continued crawling slowly toward the hall.

One hundred zhang.

Fifty zhang.

Thirty zhang.

Finally, about ten zhang from the hall’s entrance, the Wa fish demon slowly halted.

Its jet-black eyes gazed at the stone ahead with some hesitation.

The stone, seemingly ordinary, was just a piece of cyan rock with the words ’Monster-Suppressing Stone’ etched on it.

But the one who left the inscription was none other than Lu Rong.

Inside the hall.

At this moment, everyone’s hearts were in their throats.

"That stone contains Lu Rong’s saber intent, the Wa fish demon is intimidated by Lu Rong’s aura and dares not advance," someone said with relief.

Seeing the Wa fish demon pause settled their minds somewhat.

"It’s said that the stone contains Lu Rong’s sealed saber technique. Any demon daring to touch it would trigger the saber intent within, annihilating all demons," a true disciple said with respect, excitedly.

Everyone nodded as they knew about this and dared to confront the snake demon here without fleeing.

The Wa fish demon, though not highly intelligent, instinctively sensed the terrifying aura from the stone ahead.

Years ago, the spikes on its back were sliced off by a similar aura.

Hiss, hiss.

As the Wa fish hesitated, the snake’s hissing became more agitated.

Hearing the command, the Wa fish demon hesitated, but the thought of delicious humans overcame its reason.

Its dark eyes suddenly gleamed with greed.

Rumbling!

Distant thunder cracked.

Amidst the purple lightning, the Wa fish demon’s hind legs crouched slightly, then its demonic power surged explosively, and it charged straight at the stone like a prehistoric beast.

Seeing this, there were slight smiles on the people’s faces.

"It’s driven by the snake demon, daring to test the blade with its body."

"A demon is a demon, without wisdom. Trying to go head-to-head, see how it dies!"

"Lu Rong’s saber intent isn’t something it can touch so easily. The burst of saber intent will surely slice the Wa fish demon in half."

"Hopefully, before the saber intent fades, reinforcements will come. Otherwise, we must retreat."

With various thoughts, everyone watched the distance intently.

Rumbling.

Spring thunder cracked again.

In the flickering purple light, the Wa fish demon’s head smashed straight into that cyan stone.
