Chapter 279: Victory in Battle
The huge demon clan that was not far away just now had now appeared in his sight.
Although he had not yet arrived completely, his current state had clearly blocked his way.
He protected Zhou Pingfeng with both hands, and this attack did not cause him much damage.
Watching the other party's slowly recovering injuries, Chen Li couldn't help but frown, "It seems that this guy is more flexible than I thought."
You Yun sneered, "There are so many things you don't know. If you want to kill him, I'm afraid it won't work."
Even though Zhou Pingfeng didn't have as much potential as Chen Li, human cultivators in the middle Nascent Soul stage were rare, so he certainly couldn't be allowed to die.
Chen Li took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then put the black sword back.
Seeing Chen Li put away the weapon, people were obviously a little surprised. Did he give up the attack?
Although they didn't know the reason, they didn't think Chen Li would give up. He was probably preparing for something else.
Sure enough, when they came to their senses, another long sword appeared in Chen Li's hand.
The long sword exuded a strange aura, almost absorbing all the surrounding demonic energy into it.
"This sword looks really familiar." Youyun muttered to himself when he saw the long sword.
Although he had never seen this sword before, the aura it exuded gave him a very familiar feeling.
Chen Li grinned, "Whether you are familiar with it or not, it has nothing to do with me. After all, you will die here next."
The three middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivators fought against Chen Li and ended up in a tie. If this matter were to get out, it would probably be laughed at by the whole world.
The surrounding demons have been almost dealt with. Although most of them were killed by the huge demon tribe, he was also constantly absorbing the demonic energy from the corpses.
But now, it seems that it has become more difficult for this huge demon clan to absorb demonic energy, because the long sword in Chen Li's hand is competing with him for the demonic energy.
This was the first time that Chen Li used the Soul-Snatching Sword in actual combat. Although he didn't know whether this sword would be effective, he had to at least give it a try.
He took a deep breath and flew forward suddenly. With a thought, the Chijiao who he had killed before suddenly appeared and rushed to another location.
Chi Jiao's soul was absorbed by the Soul-Snatching Sword and is now being used by him. Although it is only in the early Nascent Soul stage, it is enough to confuse the opponent.
When he saw Chijiao's figure appear, Youyun was obviously stunned for a moment, but soon realized that something was wrong.
"Attack together and don't give him the chance to fight back!" Youyun rushed to Chen Li immediately with a scimitar in his hand.
Dozens of sword hearts suddenly blocked Youyun's way and launched a very fierce attack, making Youyun's face look very ugly.
Damn it, I didn’t expect this guy to have such means. It seems I really underestimated him.
The Soul-Snatching Sword in Chen Li's hand transformed into countless sword lights. With him as the center, a sword formation suddenly appeared and began to attack continuously.
With the help of the sword intent field, Chen Li's figure flashed back and forth between them. Even Youyun had no way to find where Chen Li's next destination would be.
This kid is like a loach, very slippery. Not to mention taking action, I don't even know where he is.
Zhou Pingfeng took a deep breath, made a sword shape with his right hand, bit his finger, and wiped it across his eyes, making his eyes turn blood red.
Although his vision became a little blurry, in his eyes, Chen Li's speed was no longer as fast as before.
When Chen Li arrived in front of him, Zhou Pingfeng quickly blocked the attack, then sent out a spear, his body like a swimming dragon, stabbing Chen Li's heart with his spear.
This attack hit Chen Li's heart accurately, but the feeling was very wrong, as if it was piercing into the air.
Chen Li's figure slowly disappeared, and only a shadow remained standing in front of him.
A terrible and dangerous aura came from behind Youyun, making him turn around suddenly and find that Chen Li had actually rushed in front of him.
Youyun didn't care about anything else. The black gas spread around his body and then disappeared completely.
Chen Li frowned and did not choose to stop attacking. Instead, he drew countless sword shadows around him.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared, with a lot of black air surrounding him, but there was a very deep sword mark on his shoulder.
Youyun frowned. If he had just been hit by an ordinary attack, there would be no way he would be able to reappear. However, that sword was really too strange. It was actually absorbing his mental power.
Although the amount absorbed was relatively small, if this continues, I will definitely be killed by this kid.
Chen Li sighed. If he had known earlier, he would have attached poison to the Soul-Snatching Sword. In this case, Youyun would probably have been motionless.
The huge demon not far away suddenly opened its huge mouth, intending to swallow Chen Li directly into its stomach.
However, his speed was not as fast as he thought, and Chen Li had already opened the sword intent field, so it was impossible for him to be hit.
Just when he was about to leave, he found that his body was tied up tightly and he was unable to move for a moment.
Looking at the spiritual energy on his body, Chen Li frowned and turned to look at Zhou Pingfeng over there, "It seems that you have been hiding for a long time."
It would take at least five breaths to break free from the restraints, but this big guy had already appeared in front of him and would swallow him up in just two breaths.
In an instant, a huge blood energy spread from Chen Li's body and flew straight towards the huge demon clan.
The huge demon suddenly stopped moving and just stood there, looking dazed and as if it had lost consciousness.
This situation made Youyun and Zhou Pingfeng's faces change suddenly. What happened? Why didn't he move?
"Damn it, what's going on? What did you do?" Youyun glared at Chen Li. The aura emanating from Chen Li just now was exactly the same as that of his experimental subject.
Could it be that Chen Li has mastered something? Otherwise, such a situation would not have happened.
Chen Li had already broken free from his restraints and arrived in front of Youyun. "Want to know? Then go to hell and think about it."
After saying that, Chen Li suddenly slashed at Youyun with his sword, but Youyun was so fast that he disappeared in an instant.
At this time, there was no trace of Youyun in Square City. It was obvious that he was planning to abandon this place.
Chen Li turned to look at Zhou Pingfeng over there and said coldly, "He has already run away. Now you are the only one left. Do you really think you still have a chance to fight me?"
Zhou Pingfeng had done him a favor in the past. Although he had a cold personality, no one expected that he would betray the human race because of these things.
If it weren't for Chen Li's powerful cultivation, he would have been taken care of by these guys long ago.
Zhou Pingfeng had never expected that when three middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivators were fighting against Chen Li, Chen Li was not at all at a disadvantage. He even stopped one and drove away another.
Now I am the only one left. No matter how I think about it, it is impossible for me to fight Chen Li one-on-one. It would just be suicide.
"Now that things have come to this, I have nothing more to say. Come on." Zhou Pingfeng's eyes suddenly became sharp and he stared at Chen Li and said.
Chen Li frowned. Zhou Pingfeng knew clearly that this was courting death, yet he still planned to do it. What a weird person.
But he had no comment on this matter. Since he thought so, he would just die quickly.
Chen Li took back the Soul-Snatching Sword and summoned the Black Sword. Although Zhou Pingfeng betrayed the human race, he had done him a favor after all, so it would be better to let him reincarnate.
In an instant, Chen Li appeared in front of Zhou Pingfeng, and then slapped him with a palm, and then pierced his shoulder with a sword.
Zhou Pingfeng had no intention of stopping him, as if he had been waiting for Chen Li to take action. He felt that this was just courting death.
But then, Zhou Pingfeng suddenly grabbed Chen Li, and the spiritual energy around him was constantly condensing and compressing.
Self-destruct! Chen Li immediately understood. This guy actually planned to self-destruct here. Is he crazy?
"If you don't want to see those people die, then just give me a quick death." Zhou Pingfeng stared at Chen Li and said with cold eyes.
Zhou Pingfeng did not stop his actions. It was obvious that he was determined to die here.
In fact, he has no other choice now. If he goes back, Lingxiao Sect will definitely know about this.
By then, even if he wanted to die quickly, it would be impossible. As for suicide, he really couldn't do such a thing.
So he could only let Chen Lilai give him a quick death, so that he could die peacefully.
Chen Li sighed and suddenly raised his hand. Fifty sword hearts condensed into a flying sword, which pierced through Zhou Pingfeng's heart at an extremely fast speed and then poured into Chen Li's body.
Looking at Zhou Pingfeng's increasingly spreading aura, Chen Li didn't say anything but just put his body on the ground.
After all, he is a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage. If his body is left here or taken back, he will definitely be exploited.
In that case, we can just destroy his body, so that he can die peacefully.
He waved his hand, and spiritual energy continued to spread. Zhou Pingfeng's body, which was lying on the ground, suddenly turned into blood mist and disappeared from this world.
He glanced at the situation around him and his expression became serious. Things had turned out like this, so he might as well go back.
However, before leaving, we still have to deal with this huge demon clan first. If we let them continue to stay here, that would probably be the biggest trouble.
He stroked his chin, thought for a moment, then summoned the Soul-Taking Sword and slashed it at the huge demon clan.
This guy died on the spot, and his soul was continuously absorbed by the Soul-Taking Sword. In just a moment, this guy was absorbed.
After doing all this, he chose to leave Square City and return to where Xiao Yuan and others were.
When Yun Yi and the others saw Chen Li coming back alone, they were all surprised. Why was Chen Li the only one there?
As for Xiao Yuan, he was still standing there. On the surface, he looked calm, but in fact, there was a raging storm in his heart.
As a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage, he could see the battle inside clearly. Just now, he saw that Zhou Pingfeng was colluding with the demons and attacking Chen Li.
But he didn't expect that Chen Li could still have the upper hand in a one-on-three situation. It would be absolutely impossible for Xiao Yuan to do such a thing.
"The demons in Square City have been dealt with. Let's go and seal the teleportation array over there." Chen Li looked at everyone and said.
Yun Yi and the others were stunned for a moment, then asked, "Where is Elder Zhou?"
"Dead." Chen Li said slowly, but there was no emotion in his tone.
Everyone was shocked that the third elder of Lingxiao Sect died just like that.
Yun Yi was extremely shocked. He really didn't expect that Zhou Pingfeng would die in this battle.
"He is in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, how could he die there?" Yun Yi's pupils contracted and he stared at Chen Li and asked.
Chen Li spoke again, "The reason why he died there was because I killed him."
This sentence shocked everyone present. They didn't expect that Chen Li would actually attack the third elder of Lingxiao Sect. Is he crazy?
Just as Chen Li finished his words, a sword light suddenly flashed and came straight towards him at an extremely fast speed.
Chen Li frowned. This guy was really crazy. He was planning to attack without even listening to the words.
