Achieving physical sainthood starting from Hunyuan Gong

Chapter 47 Just maggots

Liu Zhan exclaimed in disbelief, "Song Shen???"

Song Shen never intended to wear a mask on this trip.

This is not an assassination.

"it's me."

Cao Zhang was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "What are you doing here, you lackey?"

Song Shen sneered, "Is it possible that Flying Dragon Pool is under the jurisdiction of the eldest young master? I can come and go as I please."

Liu Zhan roared, "You insolent servant! How dare you defy the young master like this!"

Song Shen glanced at him sideways and said coldly, "You wretched dog! I'll chop your head off first later."

After a long pause, Cao Zhang finally seemed to realize something and said, "Could it be... that you intend to harm me?"

Chen Budu, the head constable of the city patrol, said, "Young master, this fellow attacked on a rainy night. Could it be related to that demon?"

At this point, Cao Zhang was initially puzzled.

Song Shen said helplessly, "Didn't you think of another possibility? Are you all too stupid?"

"You dog of a servant, what is your reason?" Cao Zhang was also a little confused about the situation.

Song Shen said earnestly, "What a perfect stormy night! As long as I kill you all here and then leave, everyone will think it was that Three Calamities Demon who did it. That would be the perfect killing. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

After a moment of silence, someone couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"So, you alone managed to ambush and kill thirteen of us, along with the city patrol officers and Lord Linghu from the Cao family mansion?"

"There's a limit to arrogance. Have you, this servant, gone mad?"

"..."

Amidst the mockery, only Liu Zhan was filled with excitement.

This scene today is more beautiful than anything else.

Honestly, for a long time, he had been insanely jealous. He, Song Shen, and Lu Shan were all like cattle and livestock from the same courtyard.

With his extraordinary talent, he was chosen by the eldest son from among a group of lowly ants, and in less than half a year, he went from a servant to a guard. He should have enjoyed the reputation of a genius and should have been complacent.

As a result, Song Shen, without him even realizing it, had left him far behind, making it impossible for him not to be insanely jealous.

Thinking this through, Liu Zhan saw it as the perfect opportunity to showcase himself. He strode forward, pointed his spear, and roared, "You audacious lackey! How dare you betray your master!"

next moment,

A streak of silver light pierced the rain.

"slow!!!"

The man in black was about to stop him, but the cold light had already flashed and disappeared in an instant.

Liu Zhan remained standing for a moment, but as rainwater streamed down his torso, his upper body slowly slid to the ground.

Collapsed suddenly.

[Achieved Skill and Dao Fruit: Liu Zhan (Third Month, Eighth Day)]

……

The cold, impersonal notification text flashed by.

Song Shen held his long sword in his hand, pointing it at the twelve people in front of him.

"Should we all come at once or one at a time?"

It was raining heavily.

Song Shen's move just now made everyone realize that the Cao family servant in front of them was actually a terrifying master.

Because apart from the man in black, no one saw Song Shen make a move.

Such a swift blade is unheard of.

Cao Zhang took a half step back, shielded by the crowd, and said viciously, "You damned scoundrel, do you really think you can turn the world upside down just because you've practiced a few sword techniques? Let me tell you! You will always be a slave of the Cao family! Everyone, charge at him and cut him down!!!"

Before he could finish speaking, Song Shen had already lunged forward.

The blade flashed, aimed directly at Cao Zhang!

"You lackey! How utterly arrogant!!!!"

The man in black was one of the experts brought by the First Madam's family, specifically responsible for protecting Cao Zhang's safety. Until now, he finally couldn't hold back any longer.

The sword's edge burst forth.

The powerful energy splashed out like water droplets.

None of those present could see clearly how many times the blades clashed and exploded in the air just now.

Fast, too fast.

"An expert?" Song Shen's eyes widened. "Damn it, I've been holding back these past few days, let's go again!!!"

Like a dragon's massive tendons, like steel bones, it burst forth in an instant. Song Shen sculpted himself and rushed forward, so fast it was almost blurry.

A furious roar erupted, and the raindrops falling from the sky moved with the blade's edge in the raging torrent, creating visible ripples that spread outwards. The ever-changing blade light caused the man in black to gasp in surprise.

"Sword stance???"

Song Shenren followed the blade, suddenly entering the net of swords, unleashing waves of relentless cold.

"Attack together!!"

At this moment, everyone completely forgot that they had come tonight to hunt down Xiang Zaishan, and rushed up to Song Shen together.

Song Shen unleashed a thunderbolt from his palm, transforming it into countless cold rays of light. His swift blade could easily handle even the combined might of everyone else.

The sound of swords suddenly echoed throughout the mountains and fields.

"Behold my swordplay!"

The man in black finally revealed the essence of his years of hard-earned swordsmanship. He was a top-notch swordsman, and although his swordsmanship was not yet fully formed, he had already grasped the basics and could be considered to have taken initial shape.

As Song Shen got into the killing frenzy, he applied his understanding of the Wind and Thunder Principles to the extreme with each strike. The resulting sword energy was so powerful that it seemed to have a physical presence. In an instant, five of the weaker attackers fell dead.

These people could not be considered mere nobody, but in front of Song Shen, they had reached the point where they were indistinguishable.

As the nascent sword intent unfolded, the black-clad man's perfectly formed, high-quality blood and qi from his internal organs were completely ignited and sublimated, complemented by a nascent sword style, clashing with Song Shen's longsword.

Song Shen's swordsmanship was brought to its peak. Even though he was highly skilled in martial arts, he was not reckless enough to directly face a combined attack from all the masters. Instead, he used the cover of the trees to move, pursue, and dodge, preventing his opponents from completely encircling him. Every strike was a masterpiece born of inspiration; slaying people and breaking trees were all done at will.

when!!!!

After slashing the black-clad swordsman's sword with his own, Song Shen didn't rush to fight him on the spot. Instead, he somersaulted and leaped into the midst of the three people behind him.

Without a second thought, the longsword, as if awakening its own will, followed the natural arc of the Dao, first severing the head and neck of the attacker on the left. Then, Song Shen spun around and rolled upwards, causing another person to fall to the ground on the spot. The remaining person disintegrated on the spot like a watermelon being split open in a burst of thunderous cold light.

The chilling light returned.

Are you afraid of me??

The man in black roared in fury.

Song Shen did not respond. He dodged to the side and his long sword, with the ferocity of a storm, shredded a large tree on the spot. Song Shen then rushed towards the two remaining patrol officers.

The two unlucky fellows saw a dark shadow suddenly expand in front of them. After a violent gust of wind and thunder, a dazzling blade of light, like sparks, pierced through their vision, and both heads flew off at the same time.

Cao Zhang had already vanished without a trace, fleeing for his life.

Song Shen pointed his long sword at the last expert.

The man in black faced Song Shen directly.

Their gazes clashed like electric sparks.

"kill!!!!"

This massacre was like a petrel riding the wind and waves. Each time, Song Shen would rush towards one wave, then leap over it to meet the next one.

Now only one person remains.

At this moment, Song Shen entered a state of complete tranquility and purity, burning his surging true blood and urging his dragon tendons and steel bones to unleash one hundred and eight strikes in the blink of an eye. Each strike incorporated his mastery of the wind and thunder sword techniques, displaying a myriad of magnificent forms.

All circumstances came to an end in the surging, chilling light.

The man in black retreated, covered in blood. After enduring 106 blows, the last two blows struck his left shoulder, but did not kill him. The second blow severed his left waist, completely extinguishing any chance of survival.

……

Song Shen let out a long roar and rose up from the ground.

The vast forest beneath his feet receded rapidly at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, and suddenly, he swooped down into the forest like an eagle.

The cold gleam flashed like a hundred ribbons in the rain.

Cao Zhang screamed and flew out of the air, but surprisingly, he didn't bleed.

"You fucking tough nut to crack?"

Beneath the brocade robes, a uniquely designed soft armor was revealed. The First Madam, deeply in love with her son, entrusted her family in the prefecture to invite a renowned master craftsman to create this armor, which could withstand the penetration of ten thousand arrows, using the silk of the demon spider and the fine scales from the heart of the Xuanxiang.

Since Song Shen first used his swift knife, whenever it struck a human body, it would cleanly slice through the skin and bone. Today's scene was truly unprecedented.

"And there's also a soft armor as a gift?"

Overjoyed.

Cao Zhang fell to the ground in a sorry state, barely managing to get up.

He wasn't without martial arts skills, but now he was utterly terrified and had lost all will to fight.

"Song Shen...you...you mustn't act impulsively...it's not too late to stop now, I can forgive and forget...I just beg you to spare me this time..."

He spoke incoherently and tremblingly.

Song Shen shook his head. "You lowly scum, you can't even die with any dignity."

Cao Zhang's handsome face twitched, and after suppressing his emotions for a long time, he burst into tears.

"Song Shen...it was my fault, I shouldn't have...please let me go, please let me go, please...please..."

Song Shen pointed his knife at the young nobleman and said coldly, "There are only nine feet between us now. Your official position, family background, bloodline, and status cannot save you. Begging will be useless. You will be hacked to death like a dog."

Song Shen stepped forward, raised his hand, and his huge palm gripped Cao Zhang's head with irresistible force.

The jade crown shattered, and strands of hair flew wildly.

Cao Zhang's eyes widened, then he suddenly burst into a scream: "Song Shen! You dog of a servant! How dare you betray your master! My father, my mother, and my uncle will never let you get away with this!!!"

"Is that all you know?" Song Shen was slightly disappointed.

Then die!

The force was like a waterfall cascading down, bending Cao Zhang's spine under the immense pressure. He lost control and fell to the ground, kneeling, then prone. His vertebrae snapped instantly under the tremendous force, followed by his neck bones, and finally his head.

Bang!

A huge crater appeared in the ground, and shards of bone and blood were scattered everywhere, washed away and disintegrated by the rain.

"Something like maggots."

Song Shen spat out a mouthful of saliva, peeled off the previous items and soft armor from his body, and then soared into the sky and disappeared into the night sky.
