Record of a Demon's Cultivation

Chapter 323: Escalating Situation



Translator: Cinder Translations

Looking at the imposing giant wolf, the male cultivator resembling a farmer displayed a look of disdain.

"A mere beast dares to show off," he scoffed.

He made a hand gesture for his sword technique. The flying sword pierced the air.

Light as the wind, the sword energy surged like a rainbow.

"Aw!"

The giant wolf suddenly leaped, its claws like knives.

"Clang!"

The claws collided with the long sword.

A shower of sparks erupted.

The long sword lost control and flew far away.

The giant wolf rolled through the air and landed clumsily on the ground.

Its paws were scarred by the sword energy, deep enough to see bone, instantly staining the wolf's fur red.

The farmer's lips curled into a smile.

With a flick of his fingers, he called back the flying sword, bringing it under his control again.

The silver light flashed as he slashed at the giant wolf once more.

The previous strike was merely a test.

This strike was a full-force attack.

The flying sword's momentum surged, cutting through the air like a rainbow.

The masked man's expression tightened.

The power of the flying sword was beyond what the giant wolf could withstand alone.

He raised his hand and waved; a shield flew out to aid the giant wolf.

However, the flying sword suddenly accelerated, reaching the giant wolf before the shield could arrive, slashing toward it.

A hint of fear appeared in the giant wolf's eyes, seeming somewhat intimidated.

But the flying sword had already arrived, leaving it no choice but to confront it.

The giant wolf stood up and continually struck out with its front paws.

One fierce claw attack after another shot out like a tempest, rushing toward the flying sword.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

The claw strikes were unending, yet each one was shattered by the flying sword.

The sword moved like a lone warrior cutting through an army, carving a bloody path through the throng.

Finally, it slashed down onto one of the giant wolf's paws.

"Woo..."

A heart-wrenching howl escaped.

Half of the giant wolf's left front paw was severed.

The sword light cut into its abdomen, creating a wound over two feet long.

It nearly disemboweled the creature.

The giant wolf was sent flying by the immense force of the flying sword.

The masked man watched his spirit beast with anguish and quickly fed the giant wolf several pills before putting it back into the spirit beast pouch.

He also collected the severed half of the wolf's paw.

To prevent a sneak attack from the flying sword, he kept the shield firmly protecting him as he

did all this.

However, the incoming flying sword did not strike the shield but was instead blocked by a

short dagger.

It was Leng Tianlu who had intervened.

Seeing this, the farmer chuckled lightly.

"You Beast Tamers can't win, so you just bring more people? But it seems you Beast Tamers don't have as many as we do."

As if to confirm his words, just as he finished speaking, a man and a woman emerged from

among the six bandits.

The man also summoned a flying sword.

A cold gleam flashed as it rushed directly toward the masked man.

The woman produced a jade Ruyi, slowly sweeping through the air.

Vibrant flower petals appeared out of thin air, accompanied by pink mist, surging toward the masked man.

These two planned to first kill the masked man before turning their attention to Leng Tianlu.

The masked man's expression grew serious as he fully activated the shield in front of him.

Phantom shield images surged forth from the shield, continuously meeting the flying sword, attempting to weaken its power.

The flying sword pierced through the layers of illusions and struck the shield.

The masked man, along with the shield, was sent flying backward.

"Pfft!"

A mouthful of blood sprayed out, splattering into the air.

The masked man landed clumsily, just managing to regain his footing.

At that moment, the pink mist arrived just in time.

As the petals merged with his body, the masked man suddenly stiffened, his expression

becoming somewhat dazed.

Facing the incoming flying sword once again, he seemed unaware of how to dodge or defend.

When the sword light was almost about to slice through his forehead, perhaps driven by the instinct for survival, he abruptly regained his senses.

He lowered his body sharply, and the shield flew up, blocking the flying sword.

The flying sword struck the edge of the shield.

Sword energy poured out, sweeping past the masked man's head, taking away large chunks of

flesh and hair.

The masked man's scalp and flesh were all torn away by the sword energy, revealing his bare

skull.

He looked like a terrifying demon.

However, he had at least saved his life.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Simultaneously, he and his shield were knocked to the ground by the tremendous force of the

flying sword.

Seeing the opponent's flying sword preparing to strike again, the masked man's face showed terror as he turned to look at Feng Qi, his eyes filled with pleading.

Feng Qi sat calmly on the stone mat, raising his hand to unleash a fire dragon that blocked the

flying sword aimed at the masked man.

He cleared his throat and spoke loudly.

"Forgive others when you can, my friends from the Profound Heaven Sword Sect and the He

Huan Sect, could you spare this one face of mine and let him live? Take the stone mat if you

wish."

"Ha ha."

A voice of disdain echoed through the great hall.

"You, Feng Qi, are so full of yourself."

"Since he dares to compete for the ten-thousand-year spirit liquid, he should be prepared to die."

The piercing sound of mockery rang out.

The speaker was none other than Ji Ruxue, a mere late-stage Foundation Establishment

cultivator.

Feng Qi's expression darkened upon hearing her words.

It would be one thing for others to ridicule him, but how could a mere late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator have the gall to provoke him?

"If I remember correctly, your name is Ji Ruxue, right? Back in East Huafang Market Square,

you were chased to the point of embarrassment by my subordinates. Without your master's help, you would have long been dead without a grave. You dare to bark here now?"

Ji Ruxue responded indifferently.

"Feng Qi, your subordinates bully their own kind, seizing the stone mat. If you can't even

stand against my Profound Heaven Sword Sect disciples, then dying is simply self-inflicted.

Let this be our Profound heaven Sword Sect cleaning house for your Beastmaster Sect."

Feng Qi coldly replied, "Ji Ruxue, it seems you are determined to be my enemy."

Ji Ruxue raised her eyebrows.

"Do you think I would be afraid of you?"

"If you want to die, then I'll make it happen," Feng Qi said.

He raised his hand and summoned two enormous fire dragons.

The temperature in the entire great hall suddenly soared.

A strong killing intent spread through the air.

"Feng Qi, if you bully my Profound Heaven Sword Sect, there will be no one to stop you!"

A rugged voice rang out.

It was the burly man from the Profound Heaven Sword Sect with a thick beard.

He fixed a cold stare at Feng Qi, eyes filled with fury.

It seemed that if Feng Qi dared to attack Ji Ruxue, he would face a thunderous counterstrike.

Feng Qi turned to look at the bearded man, his expression icy.

"I'd like to ask you to teach me about the sword techniques of the Profound Heaven Sword Sect."

Suddenly, another charmingly seductive voice sounded.

"Feng Qi, it seems you've forgotten my existence. I wonder, can you defeat me, Senior

Brother Xue Gu, and Junior Sister Ji all by yourself?"

The speaker was Mu Yunxin.

The bearded man, a peak Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Profound Heaven Sword

Sect, was the 'Senior Brother Xue Gu' that Mu Yunxin mentioned.

Feng Qi had once been a guest in Mu Yunxin's quarters.

However, last time when Feng Qi captured Ji Ruxue, he severely injured Mu Yunxin.

From then on, the two became enemies and cut off all ties.

Since then, Feng Qi was just a stranger to her.

Her jade arms now rested on someone else's pillow.

A half a red lip was tasted by another.

Every night, she still sang the songs of the backyard flowers.
