Chapter 442 Xiao Qiushui, the Battle Maniac
Xiao Qiushui's attack was too fast and too fierce. The wind wolf had no time to react. Just as it raised a wind shield, it was slashed away by the giant sword, along with the shield, and crashed into the mountain wall. Its bones were broken and its demon core was shaken. It spat out blood mixed with pieces of internal organs. It was clear that it had suffered extremely serious injuries!
"Roar!"
The other demonic beasts then realized what was happening, and were immediately shocked and enraged. They roared and jumped up, unleashing their demonic energy to surround Xiao Qiushui.
Having just emerged from the secret realm, they were filled with fear of the outside world. Now, being attacked so brutally without a word by a human boy, they were even more terrified.
"This human is terrifying!"
"What kind of monster is he? How can someone at the early stage of the Golden Core realm be so strong?"
"Kill him! Avenge the Wind Wolf!"
The monsters were both shocked and frightened, and instinctively wanted to attack them in groups.
Just then, the big black bear, Xiao Hei, suddenly rushed in front of Xiao Qiushui, spreading its arms to block him, while letting out an anxious roar, as if trying to explain something.
Xiao Qiushui and the other demonic beasts were all taken aback.
Qinghe Daoist also landed, releasing a slight aura of the Nascent Soul stage. Instantly, all the raging demonic beasts fell silent as if doused with ice water, trembling and staring in fear at the suddenly appearing human elder.
"This...this outside world is too terrifying. Anyone you meet is either a freak or an old monster..."
"We just want to find somewhere to go..."
Many of the monsters wailed inwardly, filled with grievance and fear.
Xiao Hei continued to growl, communicating with several seemingly leading monsters in the herd.
Soon, it turned to Qinghe Daoren and Xiao Qiushui, gesturing and growling to convey its message.
"They also came from the secret realm. The two great demons, the Sky-Splitting Crocodile and the Mystic Rock Turtle, asked them to wait here. The two great demons went to the Star Palace to pay their respects first..."
Xiao Qiushui scratched his head as he translated, looking displeased. These were his best targets, and now they were his own people?
Upon hearing this, Qinghe Daoist's doubts vanished. It turned out to be a false alarm; these were all the mysterious beasts from the secret realm who had come to seek refuge with Ruge.
Seeing Xiao Qiushui's itchy hands and then looking at the large number of powerful Golden Core demon beasts, a thought suddenly struck him.
He also wanted to see where the limit of Xiao Qiushui's Heavenly Dao Golden Core was.
Then, Daoist Qinghe smiled slightly and said, "Fellow Daoists of the Demon Clan, there is no need to panic. I am Daoist Qinghe, an elder of the Star Palace. On behalf of the entire Star Palace, I welcome you to join us. From now on, we are all on the same side."
At this point, he changed the subject, pointing at Xiao Qiushui and saying, "My grand-disciple is naturally warlike and has offended you greatly just now. However, I think you fellow Daoists are new here and probably need to stretch your muscles and familiarize yourselves with the environment of this realm."
"How about this: you each select ten fellow Daoists to spar with my grand-disciple, stopping short of a decisive exchange, what do you say?"
The fear of the monsters lessened considerably, but upon hearing that they were to fight that freakish boy, they hesitated again, as the wind wolf had suffered too much.
Qinghe Daoist encouraged, "Rest assured, with me here, I will ensure that neither side suffers a fatal injury. This sparring will also help you understand the fighting style of human cultivators."
Encouraged by Qinghe Daoren and "persuaded" by Xiao Hei, ten mid-stage Golden Core demon beasts, confident in their strength, finally stepped forward and surrounded Xiao Qiushui.
"Haha! Just in time!"
Xiao Qiushui was overjoyed. She brandished her giant sword and charged forward!
The war broke out instantly!
Xiao Qiushui moved like a tiger among sheep, wielding her giant sword with impenetrable force, her sword energy crisscrossing!
His strength was astonishing, and his speed was as fast as a ghost. Often, before the monster's spells could even reach him, he would have already rushed in front of him and slashed down with his sword!
Bang bang bang!
A rhinoceros was sent tumbling by his sword, a deep sword mark appearing on its thick shell.
He grabbed the tail of a green-scaled python that spewed poisonous mist and swung it like a whip at another demonic leopard.
His defense was even more abnormal. He withstood the sonic attack of a golden-haired roar, and with just a shake of his head, he punched the golden-haired roar so hard that it saw stars.
Ten mid-stage Golden Core demonic beasts joined forces, yet he single-handedly overwhelmed them!
The valley was filled with a constant roar, flying rocks and destroying vegetation!
The Taoist priest from Qinghe watched from the sidelines, nodding repeatedly, his eyes gleaming with admiration.
Xiao Qiushui's combat talent is truly exceptional; her grasp of timing and application of power are at an extremely high level.
More importantly, he has an indestructible physique and a fighting spirit that grows stronger with each battle!
"Add ten more!"
Qinghe Daoist wanted to test Xiao Qiushui's limits, so he gave another order.
Suddenly, ten more demonic beasts joined the battle!
This suddenly increased the pressure!
Twenty Golden Core demonic beasts unleashed their various innate abilities, including flames, frost, wind blades, earth spikes, venom, and mental shocks, surging towards Xiao Qiushui like a tidal wave!
Xiao Qiushui finally felt the pressure. Wounds began to appear on his body, blood flowed, and his clothes were torn, but the fighting spirit in his eyes burned even more fiercely!
"Hahaha! That's great! That's so great!"
Let's continue! We won't stop until we've fought to our hearts' content!
He laughed wildly, his blood and energy soaring into the sky like smoke, and his wounds healing at a speed visible to the naked eye!
He no longer adhered to swordsmanship; his fists, feet, elbows, and knees—every part of his body—became weapons. He even opened his mouth wide and let out a roar that faintly carried the sound of a dragon's cry, causing several demonic beasts to lose their composure!
He was like a painless and tireless fighting machine, charging wildly through the beast horde. Wherever he went, the monsters were repelled or injured!
Although he himself kept inflicting new wounds, and was even hit hard in the chest by a wild elephant, spitting out blood, he simply wiped the corner of his mouth and pounced on it with even more ferocity in his eyes!
The battle was so fierce that the sky darkened, the mountains collapsed, and the entire valley was almost leveled!
……
Just then, Daoist Xingchen arrived in haste, accompanied by several peak masters and the shrunken Sky-Splitting Crocodile.
They sensed the terrifying fluctuations of spiritual energy and the earth-shattering sounds of fighting coming from the valley from afar, and were terrified, thinking something had happened.
When they arrived at the scene, everyone was stunned by what they saw.
Twenty golden-core demonic beasts were seen attacking a blood-covered, seemingly crazed young man.
The young man was like a war god, dominating the beast horde and making earth-shattering moves with every strike!
Meanwhile, Qinghe Daoren stood with his hands behind his back, watching with a smile, as if he were enjoying a wonderful performance.
"Uncle-Master Qinghe?!"
The Starry Sky Taoist was both surprised and delighted.
The Sky-Splitting Crocodile was startled and quickly concealed its aura. It ran to the Qinghe Daoist and respectfully bowed its head, saying, "Sky-Splitting Crocodile greets Qinghe Daoist!"
Master Qinghe chuckled and waved his hand, "No need for formalities. You've come at the perfect time. Let's see what my grand-disciple is capable of."
Star Daoist looked at the crazed figure in the arena, and after careful examination, he recognized it as Xiao Qiushui. He couldn't help but gasp: "This, this is Qiushui? How, how did he become so ferocious?"
