Chapter 62 Head Hanging on the City Wall
"Cough cough..."
Xiang Zaishan coughed a few times, just about to get up.
A giant foot descended from the sky, slamming his head into the pit. Song Shen's stomp was incredibly powerful, sending dirt and rocks flying everywhere.
The mountain is still twisting.
The head, which originally maintained a human shape, gradually underwent a skeletal transformation, eventually turning into a giant snake head under Song Shen's relentless stomping.
Teeth far sharper than a dagger, dripping with green sap.
Just as Song Shen raised his foot, Xiang Zaishan finally unleashed the power of his demonic blood and suddenly shot backward.
Staggering, disheveled.
"You...are you really human? Or some kind of monster?"
Xiang Zaishan's expression was one of surprise and uncertainty.
Song Shen grinned: "To correct a mistake, you are the monster, and I am the one who kills monsters."
Xiang Zaishan paused for a moment, then suddenly looked up at the sky and laughed loudly.
"A very strong human. You must have eaten some kind of exotic fruit, as your physique can rival mine. I will devour you raw to compensate for the demonic blood I burned today!"
The demon-headed broadsword slowly extended from the arm, then expanded, and dark red flames ignited on its blade. Raindrops fell on it, making a sizzling sound and turning into white mist that rose up.
The crimson flames on the blade suddenly surged. The demon's essence burned on the blade, transforming into dark red blade energy that left scorching trails in the rain.
"Since that's the case, I'll show you what a real knife is!"
He let out a long roar, becoming one with his blade, and charged towards Song Shen.
The young face reflected in the vertical pupils was filled with anticipation.
expect?
He was curious about the heart of the mountain.
next moment,
A long sword suddenly appeared in Song Shen's hand.
The blood-stained blade approached within nine feet.
The sounds of wind, fire, and thunder erupted simultaneously.
The vast momentum was instantly stirred by the flash of the blade. Song Shen's blade was so fast that it struck the edge of the blood-red blade at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.
With a buzzing sound, a burst of dazzling blade light exploded out. Song Shen unleashed the Dragon-Surging Steps, leaping into the blade light.
"kill!!!!!!"
The two swords, wielded at their limit, unleashed a vast and powerful force with each swing.
The opponent's three forces rose and fell in turn.
Song Shen's two great powers had been cultivated to an extremely profound level, merging into one, creating a mist of sword light and a fierce aura of dragons and tigers.
Suddenly changing his move, Song Shen's sword light became extremely fast!
Secret Technique: Purple Lightning!
"Come!!"
Xiang Zaishan responded with the secret technique of the Flame Path: Burning Dragon.
There was no time to be shocked, because the second blow had already arrived.
Thunderous Blade Technique - Thunder Tide Rising.
The endless barrage of blades surged forth like a tide, each strike carrying the explosive power of lightning, faster and heavier than the last. Xiang Zaishan parried with all his might, the clashing of blades echoing like popping beans across the empty hillside.
Seventy cuts, one hundred and three cuts, nine hundred cuts...
Xiang Zaishan's arm began to go numb, his tiger's mouth split open, and black blood flowed down the hilt of the knife.
Fine cracks slowly appeared on the ghost-head broadsword—they were caused by the shockwave from Song Shen's sword energy.
The sword's momentum suddenly shifted. From a thunderous, powerful force, it transformed into a fierce, torrential downpour. The sword light was no longer heavy; instead, it became fast, faster, so fast it was almost invisible. Each strike was like a gust of wind, cutting in from unbelievable angles, leaving fine, intricate wounds on Xiang Zaishan's body.
Secret Technique: Flying Blade's Wrath.
Xiang Zaishan's entire body burned with demonic blood, releasing billowing energy and smoke, and his longsword unleashed the demonic martial arts technique, Bashan Thunder.
In an instant, the pain throughout my body intensified.
It turned out that the innate sword energy that the old patriarch of the Cao family had previously injected into his body was causing the problem.
This is the indestructible, pure innate sword energy. Even after the swordsman has passed away, his residual sword energy can still lie dormant in the blood and meridians, and be activated unintentionally.
Damn it! That old bastard is still attacking him!!!
Song Shen noticed that the demon's entire body stiffened for a moment, revealing a rare opening.
As a top-tier swordsman, he would never let such a mistake go unpunished.
The long sword transformed into a short, sharp arc, leaving a trail of blood.
Scales shattered, and demonic blood splattered.
Xiang Zaishan completely burned himself out, abandoning defense and launching a full-scale attack. He unleashed the Fire and Thunder Dual Stance from the Three Calamities Blade Technique—his most proficient killing move.
Thunder and fire clashed, and blade energy surged like a tide.
Dark red flames burned in the air, evaporating the rain into white mist. Arcs of electricity crackled and leaped on the blade, its demonic blood burning to its limit as the ghost-headed greatsword slashed towards Song Shen with earth-shattering force.
"You are dead."
Song Shen said coldly.
While using the ever-changing and nimble Dragon Steps to dodge and weave amidst the explosive blade light, he continuously swung his blade, creating openings in his opponent's net of blades.
Xiang Zaishan was utterly desperate.
The blade before him was like a barrage of arrows when attacking, and as solid as a fortress when defending. If he were at his peak, he would be confident of a fight, but now, the more he exerted his power, the sharp innate true energy within his bloodline would accelerate the destruction of his internal organs like a dagger.
How can we possibly fight a war like this?
He thought of his elderly father still waiting for him to return to the cave, also enduring the destruction caused by the innate sword energy.
Having thought this through, he made up his mind to retreat.
"I'll come back and kill you another day!!!"
He braced himself on the ground at the foot of the mountain, leaped ten zhang (approximately 33 meters) forward, and fled down the slope.
A glint of light flashed in Song Shen's eyes.
This is the moment he's been waiting for.
"Where to go?"
At this moment, the enlightenment of more than a hundred years intertwined in Song Shen's heart, transforming into the beating of his heart, with every vein extending to the long sword.
Chasing Wind Blade Technique: Seizing the Opportunity
Thunderous Blade Technique - Seizing the Opportunity
Two completely different sword techniques converged, merged, and sublimated within his body—the result of over forty years of arduous training in simulated time and space: the fusion of wind and thunder, the unity of speed and strength.
Secret Technique: Wind and Thunder Slash.
The long sword sliced through the rain, accompanied by an inhuman buzzing sound.
As the blade flashed, the rain curtain was sliced open, and the two raindrops shot out in two directions through the air, tearing the air apart and even making time seem to stand still for a moment.
Xiang Zaishan saw that knife.
He saw the blade light magnify in his pupils, saw that cold gleam tear through his Fire and Thunder Dual Formations with unstoppable force, and saw his most prized killing move crumble before that blade.
He tried to parry, but the movement of a blade has its limits; a blade that is even slightly slower can never catch up with a faster blade.
The first strike shattered his demonic blade, the demonic sword forged from his ribs, which crumbled inch by inch under Song Shen's longsword, scattering fragments everywhere.
The second strike severed the scales on his chest, and the old wound left by the innate sword energy completely ruptured under this strike, with black blood gushing out like a spring.
The third slash swept across the left side of the neck, and a thick, scaly arm flew out horizontally.
Song Shen descended from the sky, his sharpness unmatched, and kicked the flying snake body down to the blood-red notice board.
"I said I'd scrape off every single one of your snake scales, and not a single one can be missing."
Song Shen laughed heartily, his long sword transforming in the air into the fine precision of an embroiderer's needle, swiftly scraping off the black scales one by one.
The screams of a pig being slaughtered echoed through the mountains and fields until they were completely naked, until they had utterly lost all dignity that belonged to demons.
Xiang Zaishan was completely reduced to his original form, like a giant snake that had been forcibly shed its skin, curled up in a pit, constantly howling in agony, until finally, he only wished for death.
Song Shen stepped on the demon's head and coldly cursed:
"Look at yourself now! You're worse than a pig or a dog, how dare you call yourself a demon?"
Xiang Zaishan trembled and changed his head into its transformed form, attempting to regain a shred of dignity.
No chance.
The next moment, Song Shen raised his knife and severed the head, the splattering blood staining the notice board red.

-----------------
Ever since the list of evil spirits that the Heavenly Blade Legendary Eagle had posted on the mountain was taken down, everyone has been asking about it.
Who is the Eagle in Tianya Mingyue Dao?
Many well-informed people who claimed to know everything were desperately inquiring, searching not only Xinyu City, but also the entire Longzhou.
There are more than twenty people nicknamed "Heavenly Blade," but only a few are truly formidable. They are all formidable fighters in their own right, but there is not a single one named Chuan Ying.
Could it be that they're just using this as an excuse to promote themselves?
Or perhaps this is a master swordsman who has been living in seclusion for many years, who has come to exorcise the demon?
Various speculations have been rampant.
There was mockery,
I admire him.
However, dissenting voices gradually became the mainstream.
No one could believe that a so-called Heavenly Blade Eagle who appeared out of nowhere could really kill this demon that even a Xiantian expert couldn't defeat.
early morning.
As the storm subsided, a red ball, gradually tinged with crimson, appeared behind the clouds.
Screams shattered the morning silence on the street.
"That demon has been defeated!!!!"
Many martial arts practitioners who rushed to the scene were stunned. "What's wrong with him???"
The screamer cried out, "The city...the east gate of the city wall!"
A few moments later, a surging tide of people poured in from beneath the East Gate.
Everyone stood below the city walls, staring in stunned silence.
A bloody demon head hung high atop the city wall.
