Chapter 295: The Martial Sage Arrives
Demonic energy had appeared on the crazed old man’s body!
Demonic energy could not be born easily.
The source of it was the Ancient Demons.
For example, the Bloodseeker Beasts that Su Jingxing’s Blood Doppelganger had wiped out carried demonic energy on them.
However, there was very little demonic energy in the Bloodseeker Beasts’ bodies.
!!
Furthermore, because it had seeped into the Bloodseeker Essence Energy, the Blood Doppelganger could absorb and refine the demonic power and characteristics it carried.
If there was too much demonic energy, it could only be sealed.
A martial artist’s true energy could resist the demonic energy, but not dissolve it.
Of course, in ancient times, there were methods to refine demonic energy.
However, these secret abilities had been lost.
This was also the reason why Su Jingxing’s Blood Doppelganger caused a heated discussion after killing all the Bloodseeker Beasts and was known as the Beast Refining Blood King.
It was really difficult to get rid of demonic energy.
Right now, the berserk old man was wrapped in demonic energy. The black, python-like demonic energy was almost corporeal.
Without waiting for him to erupt, he knew the threat the old man posed!
…
“All disciples, listen up. Immediately retreat from the back mountain and set up the Nine Revolutions Star Array outside.”
“All elders, listen up. Immediately set up the Celestial Pole Demon Suppression Array to kill the demon!”
The middle-aged man shouted.
With blood at the corner of his mouth, he released his aura fully. With the circulation of his cultivation, his imposing true essence lifted his body off the ground and into the air.
“Yes!”
The hundreds of disciples scattered around responded and retreated out of the mountain with their injured bodies.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
All the elders soared into the sky and surrounded the crazy old man.
Although everyone was injured and their faces were pale, no one was afraid nor did anyone escape.
Under the middle-aged man’s orders, they circulated their true essence and set up the array formation according to the steps of the Celestial Pole Demon Suppression Array.
They were fast. In less than five seconds, a huge mysterious imprint appeared in the air. It weighed down from above and enveloped the crazy old man.
Roar!
The berserk old man roared, endless killing intent surging in his scarlet eyes. Demonic energy surged from his body and charged towards the descending giant imprint.
Buzz buzz buzz!
The two collided, producing a dull and suppressed explosion that rippled through the air.
The dust and sand on the ground were thrown in all directions as if they had encountered a tornado.
Rings of air waves visible to the naked eye bloomed at the entrance and swept through the entire back mountain.
Everywhere it pa.s.sed, trees collapsed, heaps of soil splattered, and boulders cracked.
At the center of the explosion, the crazy old man stood proudly. His hands were like eagle claws, and under the influence of the demonic energy, they continuously tore apart the imprints on his body.
As for the terrifying pressure carried by the huge imprint, it didn’t seem to exist.
The berserk old man dashed left and right, jumping up and down. His movements were not affected at all.
On the contrary, the light seals that formed the Demon Suppression Array kept shattering under his demonic claws.
Although they were quickly reconstructed, the crazy old man soon crushed them again.
The middle-aged man and the others who were maintaining the array formation expended a lot of true essence.
However, the demonic energy on the old man seemed to be endless.
As true essence continued to be consumed and demonic energy surged, the crazy old man would definitely win.
Once the old man escaped from the back mountain, the consequences would be unimaginable.
In Su Jingxing’s detailed perception, even without the augmentation of the demonic energy, the crazy old man still had the aura of a first-grade expert.
It was already difficult to destroy a first-grade martial artist, let alone a first-grade who had become a heretic.
It was almost impossible for the hundreds of disciples who had retreated from the back mountain and set up the array formation outside to block such a terrifying existence.
Su Jingxing sensed the so-called Nine Revolutions Star Array. It was only a defensive array formation that relied on true energy to operate. With their numbers, they might be able to hold back the crazy old man for a while, but in the end, it would definitely collapse.
To kill the old man, Su Jingxing would have to step in.
No, to be precise, it was Su Jingxing in his Essence Soul state.
I wonder if the power of the Essence Soul can destroy the old man’s demonic energy?
…
Roar!
The roar shook the forest, waves of air surged, and flames surged into the sky.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Under the Demon Suppression Array, the crazy old man became more and more berserk. Streaks of demonic energy coiled around his body like dragons and snakes, augmenting his claws and tearing apart the light seals.
Thump!
With both feet pushing off the ground, the berserk old man took advantage of the temporary hole in the Demon Suppression Array and soared into the sky, pouncing towards a long-haired old woman.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The demonic claws tore through the air, spilling blood.
In just a breath, the long-haired old woman was torn into pieces before she could even scream.
“No!”
An old man across from the long-haired old woman screamed miserably when he saw this scene.
The true essence in his body surged, and he instantly released it all. His Martial Art True Intent manifested, and a huge sword appeared in the air. It wrapped around him and charged towards the crazy old man.
During this process, another empty area appeared in the Demon Suppression Array.
Hu~
Boom!
A loud explosion that sounded like thunder resounded through the sky.
The crazy old man was struck by the giant sword and slammed into the ground, creating a huge pit that was seven to eight meters deep and surrounded with cracks.
However, he only had his clothes torn and was not injured.
Demonic energy coiled around his body as he snarled like a poisonous python, making the old man look like a demonic G.o.d.
Thump!
There was a loud bang.
The berserk old man soared into the sky again with surging demonic energy.
Buzz!
Under the maintenance of the middle-aged man and the others, the huge Demon Suppression Array descended from above their heads.
But——
Boom!
Accompanied by a deafening bang, the Demon Suppression Array shattered. The light seals turned into specks of starlight that danced in the air.
The middle-aged man and the others spat out mouthfuls of blood and flew back in all directions, crashing to the ground.
When they landed on the ground, some of their bones broke, some of their true essence was depleted, some of them fainted on the spot, and some of them sank deep into the ground.
Without even trying, they knew that they had lost the ability to continue moving.
Roar!
Although the crazy old man’s demonic energy had weakened by more than half and he crashed into a huge pit for the second time when he fell back to the ground, he quickly recovered.
The surging demonic energy continued to spread and wrap around the old man, causing him to break free from the ground and roar.
Thump!
The ground shook.
Under the horrified gazes of the middle-aged man and the others, the crazy old man charged towards the periphery of the mountain with a terrifying aura.
But at that moment——
Buzz!
A ball of light suddenly appeared in the sky.
A figure shrouded in a halo descended from the sky with torrential pressure.
The moment he arrived at the back mountain, a terrifying pressure wrapped around everyone’s hearts.
The crazy old man who was charging seemed to have been struck by a huge hammer and fell miserably back onto the ground and into the pit.
Roar!
Even so, the crazy old man still snarled. With a roar, he charged out of the pit again and launched a violent attack at the glowing figure that was descending from the sky.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two beams of sword light shot out from the eyes of the figure at the right time. They struck the crazy old man and forced him back into the pit.
The frightening destructive power destroyed the old man’s hands, arms, chest, body, and head inch by inch!
