"Heh! This place has truly become a demonic lair.
It's guarded by corpse demons. Everyone, prepare yourselves!"
Uncle-Master spoke, directly taking out the modified folding broadsword from the sword bag on his back.
He held it in his hand.
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
Two palms wide, one meter and fifty-six centimeters long.
Held in Uncle-Master's hand, it looked quite imposing.
The corpse demons didn't give us much time to prepare.
Suddenly, a shrill scream rang out, "Ge."
The next second, red eyes flickered in the mist.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh," one by one, the corpse demons began charging at us.
In the blink of an eye, a corpse demon entered our sight.
It was a wolf corpse demon, its body rotten, its eyes glowing red.
As soon as it appeared, it let out a strange cry and lunged at us.
Uncle-Master stood at the forefront, holding the broadsword.
With a leap, he swung his broadsword down:
"Die!"
With a hum, a surge of qi vibrated.
Uncle-Master's sword strike, without missing its mark, directly hit the wolf corpse demon.
Due to its immense power,
the qi from the broadsword instantly split the corpse demon in half.
Black blood splattered everywhere.
Its glowing red eyes exploded.
Black fluid flowed out, and even a few maggots crawled out of its eye sockets.
It was truly disgusting.
Before we could catch our breath, more corpse demons emerged from all sides.
These corpse demons were all animals.
There were monkeys, wild boars, elks, and so on.
Each one had a highly rotten body.
Some even had intestines hanging out.
With "squeak, squeak" sounds, they charged at us.
It was clear these corpse demons were artificially refined.
They were used as guards to protect the demonic court.
Seeing this, everyone unleashed their skills and attacked the corpse demons.
The first one I faced was a wild boar corpse demon.
It was larger than a domestic pig, its body covered in rotten wounds, exuding corpse qi.
With a pair of wild boar tusks, it charged at me.
I held my Seven Stars Sword.
Without retreating or evading, I met it head-on.
"Ge ge..."
The corpse demon howled and thrust itself at me.
I raised my sword and slashed.
With a "bang," I directly split the wild boar corpse demon's head in half.
The corpse demon let out a miserable cry, black blood spraying everywhere, and it fell to the ground.
At the wound site, there were traces of burns...
Before I could confirm if it was dead, a monkey corpse demon suddenly lunged from a tree trunk.
I dodged to the side and slashed again.
I brought the corpse demon down to the ground once more.
Looking at the others around me.
Except for the guide, the female Taoist priestess Guan Xin from Blackwater Temple, who was previously injured in the arm and had lower cultivation,
she was struggling to dodge and parry, finding it difficult to cope.
The rest of the group could basically hold their ground and fight independently.
Although these corpse demons were top-tier evil entities,
they appeared to be the lowest-level evil monsters.
Their strength was not great.
They only had the simplest physical attacks and were not very fast.
Xu Han Chi, Luo Fei, and Xia Qiu Xi, all hailed from the prestigious Qingcheng Mountain sect.
Their Qingcheng swordsmanship was exceptional.
Facing these corpse demons, they were handling them with ease.
Yun Long and Yun Hu, wielding the sun and moon twin wheels,
coupled with their being brothers, their coordination was exceptionally默契.
They fought left and right without any pressure.
Yun Xia Gu and Uncle-Master were even more remarkable.
Both had cultivation at the peak of the Profound Core realm.
Facing mere corpse demons, they handled them with ease, already fighting in the midst of the corpse demon horde.
Basically, it was one kill per sword, with no finishing blows needed.
As for Old Mo, the kid was ecstatic.
With his twin peach wood battle axes, he constantly spouted chuunibyo-esque Japanese anime lines like "I can carry a bag of rice for a building," and "I can carry a bag of rice for two buildings," amusing everyone around.
Seeing Guan Xin struggling, I moved closer to her.
I killed the corpse demon attacking her.
Then I said to her:
"Stay with me!"
Guan Xin knew my strength, nodded, and hid behind me.
At this moment, three corpse demons approached.
They attacked from three directions.
"Be careful!"
Guan Xin warned.
I scanned my surroundings, formed a sword finger with my left hand, and circulated the Qiankun True Art.
I pointed at one of the corpse demons:
"Chi!"
Instantly, the Six Stars Sword from my back sheath flew out.
With a "whoosh," it shot out, carrying fierce golden attribute qi.
With a "bang," it pierced the head of the monkey corpse demon and pinned it to a large tree, killing it instantly.
With my left hand, I swung my sword horizontally, neatly cleaving the heads of the two charging wolf-headed corpse demons.
"Zi zi zi," black blood splattered.
The two wolf-headed corpse demons lay motionless on the ground.
Guan Xin, standing behind me, was stunned.
Yun Long, Yun Hu, Xu Han Chi, Luo Fei, and others nearby were also shocked.
"Sword manipulation!"
"Damn, Brother Qin can manipulate swords?"
"Brother Qin is this fierce?"
"..."
Amidst their astonishment, I had already pressed forward.
My sword light crisscrossed, my movements agile.
In just a short while, the corpse demons I had killed had reached six.
By the time I finished off the last corpse demon.
The surroundings fell silent, all thirty-odd corpse demons present had been annihilated.
Yun Xia Gu sheathed her sword and turned to ask everyone:
"Is everyone alright? No injuries?"
Everyone then sheathed their swords and responded:
"We're fine!"
"Haven't had enough fighting yet!"
"..."
Everyone answered, even with a sense of ease.
Only Guan Xin, behind me, softly replied:
"I, I was scratched..."
Hearing this, everyone turned to look at her.
Guan Xin looked at her left thigh, where a bloody gash had been inflicted.
The wound was already swollen, turning black and purple...
