Mortal Alchemy

“Bang!”

Chen Ping was sent flying by the immense power of the demonic claw, with the demonic cultivator protector hot on his heels.

“Whoosh!”

Another spell surged from Chen Ping's side!

“Shuush——”

Chen Ping held the Gaoyang sword in his left hand and the Aurora sword in his right.

With a thrust of his left hand, a slender line of azure lotus shot out, instantly killing the Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator who had attacked him.

Another one down! In the entire Demon Subduing Market, only four demonic cultivators remained, including the demonic cultivator protector!

“Damn sword cultivator! You're like a bug!” The demonic cultivator protector was furious, stamping his feet in anger.

Chen Ping, almost single-handedly, had wiped out all the subordinates he had brought with him.

Seeing him stamping his feet like that, Chen Ping became even more convinced that this demonic cultivator protector was likely an incompetent fool.

How did he come up with such a meticulous plan then? Could this person be the illegitimate child of some big shot within the demonic cultivators?

“Senior Uncle Chen, we're here to help you!” The four disciples of the Eastern Xuan Sect finally decided what to do at this moment, rushing out and launching four spells in a sudden, well-timed attack that forced the demonic cultivator protector back.

Chen Ping finally seized the opportunity to catch his breath, not needing to consume pills to restore his spiritual power.

Because there was still a large amount of spiritual power from the sword crystal within him that had yet to be expended.

The Azure Lotus Swordplay was useless against demonic cultivators, and Chen Ping didn't want to waste it for the time being, in case there were any hidden demonic cultivators.

Seeing them, Chen Ping said:

“You've come at the right time. I'll take care of this demonic cultivator protector. You four are responsible for the remaining three demonic cultivators.”

“Keep your distance to avoid being caught in the crossfire, and then find an opportunity for one of you to immediately go to the Eastern Barren Immortal City and report the news here to the sect.”

The four of them looked excited:

“Yes, Senior Uncle Chen!”

The demonic cultivator protector's face darkened: “So there were a few hidden Eastern Xuan Sect bugs after all, damn it!”

How did such a good sacrificial situation turn into this?

It was all because of this sword cultivator from the Eastern Xuan Sect!

“Careful!” Chen Ping exclaimed, quickly blocking several streams of demonic energy fired by the demonic cultivator protector.

“Clang clang clang!”

This demonic energy bombarded the Aurora Sword, unable to exert any corrosive effect.

The four Eastern Xuan Sect disciples broke out in a cold sweat. If this demonic energy had hit them, the four of them would have died on the spot.

Without even having time to thank Chen Ping, the four of them scattered and went to find trouble with the three Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators.

Without the harassment of the remaining Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators, Chen Ping was able to focus more on fighting the demonic cultivator protector.

Chen Ping gradually figured out the demonic cultivator protector's personality and the power of his strange cane.

He no longer probed and retreated, but instead began to close the distance with the demonic cultivator protector, wanting to try to kill him with one blow!

“Clang clang clang!!!”

The heated battle continued.

“Buzz buzz buzz!!!”

Chen Ping took the initiative to move forward, inevitably causing the sword energy on his armor to be corroded.

“If I had comprehended Sword Steel Condensed Fiend, how could I fear his demonic energy corrosion?”

Chen Ping thought to himself.

Although his combat strength was not bad, it was not enough to be among the top tier of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Once this demonic tide war was over, he would definitely have to find a way to comprehend Sword Steel Condensed Fiend.

Enlightenment Pill, Sword Dao Secret Medicine, Heavenly Venerate Teaching inheritance, the combination of these three should be able to push him into the realm of Sword Steel Condensed Fiend, right?

Compared to the last time he went to the Heavenly Venerate Teaching, Chen Ping's current combat strength was much higher than before.

“Bang bang bang!”

Chen Ping waved several azure lotuses with his left hand, unleashing sword energy to harass the demonic cultivator protector, wanting to disrupt his formation.

If Chen Ping hadn't deduced that this person's Foundation Establishment cultivation might have been obtained through sacrifice, he wouldn't have dared to act so rashly.

“Damn sword cultivator bug!” The demonic cultivator protector's face was a little unsightly, and he hurriedly summoned demonic energy to resist Chen Ping's all-pervasive sword energy attacks.

“Hasn't this sword cultivator bug's spiritual power been exhausted yet?”

How many moves had Chen Ping used since he appeared?

Not only did Chen Ping not show any signs of exhausting his spiritual power, but he was instead becoming more and more courageous, and began to charge towards him!

Too troublesome and difficult to deal with.

The heated battle continued.

And the distance between Chen Ping and him was gradually closing, which made the demonic cultivator protector a little anxious, and at the same time, he was at his wit's end, not knowing what to do.

He was a half-step Golden Core cultivator, relying on the cane in his hand, yet he couldn't take down a small Foundation Establishment sword cultivator?

Although the Azure Lotus Sword Energy was useless against the demonic cultivator protector, the Azure Lotus Flying Shadow allowed Chen Ping's speed to skyrocket, allowing Chen Ping to be as fast as the demonic cultivator protector.

Chen Ping was surrounded by several colors, black, white, azure, and purple.

The Dharma Body Sword Aspect above his head was constantly spinning rapidly, strengthening Chen Ping's divine sense perception.

The danger and pressure that Chen Ping brought to the demonic cultivator protector was too strong, he had never encountered such a fierce Foundation Establishment cultivator.

“Almost there!”

Chen Ping's eyes flashed with a sharp light, turning into a stream of azure light, and shooting towards the demonic cultivator protector at high speed.

“Damn it!” The demonic cultivator protector's eyelids twitched violently, and he hurriedly raised the cane in his hand.

“Clang!!!”

At that moment, the Azure Lotus Sword in Chen Ping's hand collided with the cane, sparks flew, and spiritual power exploded.

Chen Ping held Gaoyang's sword in his left hand.

“Whoosh——”

The sword energy on Chen Ping's armor suddenly retreated like a tide, and then surged onto the Gaoyang sword.

The Gaoyang sword was not of high enough grade, and the sword body could hardly bear it, and immediately made a wailing sound.

Then, in the next instant, the violent undying sword energy swept over the sky and covered the earth, like a surging tide, devouring the demonic cultivator protector!

“No!!!” The demonic cultivator protector let out a desperate, painful, and unwilling roar.

He wanted to use demonic energy to protect himself, but his speed was simply not as fast as Chen Ping's.

It was only a moment before he was enveloped by the undying sword energy.

Then, the sword energy exploded——

“Chichi chichi!!!”

The arm of the demonic cultivator protector holding the cane was chopped off by the Dharma Body Sword Aspect above Chen Ping's head.

Dense sword energy wrapped around the demonic cultivator protector, stabbing him into a bloody mess, and he could not find a single intact place on his body.

Even if his parents came, they would not be able to recognize the demonic cultivator protector.

“Crack——”

After making a final wailing sound, the Gaoyang sword shattered inch by inch, turning into powder and dissipating in the air.

Chen Ping murmured: “Gaoyang, in this way you can be considered to have avenged yourself…”

As the sword dissipated, the invisible undying sword energy also dissipated.

Blood began to flow from the corners of Chen Ping's mouth, and not only that, blood was flowing from all over his body, and in a short period of time, he turned into a bloody man.

The sword crystal was ultimately a third-order item, and the power it brought was too violent and fierce. If Chen Ping hadn't cultivated the Great Violet Immortal Pill Scripture, and his essence blood was a holy product for healing, Chen Ping would have been unable to hold on.

He had been using his essence blood all along, healing himself while fighting.

“No!!!” A demonic cultivator in the distance saw this scene and let out a painful sound.

His face was full of disbelief: “Protector, you're dead…”

Only then did Chen Ping turn his head and see that not far away, more than a dozen Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators had appeared again, not knowing where they had come from.

Chen Ping endured the pain, propping up the Aurora Sword with one trembling hand, and looked calmly at the dozen or so Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators in front of him:

“As expected… there are still people behind this demonic cultivator protector…”

“You've come at the right time, you can continue to add to my merit points.”
