CHAPTER 433: CHAPTER 432: KILL THEM ALL_1

Hu Xiong, son of the Tiger Demon Sect and a young expert who was The Master of the Sixth Realm, had just perished.

Meanwhile, Ling Chen, the Saintess’s son, had instantly acquired a vast number of points, catapulting him to fifth place on the leaderboard.

Countless Demon Way experts witnessed this scene with their own eyes.

Now, everyone knew for certain: Ling Chen had slain Hu Xiong, seized his Demon Soul Bead, and claimed all his points.

The rules governing the Sky Demon Tower trials throughout the generations did not prohibit such actions. Prohibition was impossible, even if desired. Besides, followers of the Demon Way had always revered strength above all. It was considered perfectly natural for the weak to be killed by the strong.

"Ling Chen is the Saintess’s son who just killed Hu Xiong. When he entered the Sky Demon Tower, his Cultivation was merely that of a Third Level Great Master. He could be described as weak, while Hu Xiong was a Master of the Sixth Realm. The difference in their levels was vast, almost like comparing a nag to a Kirin. Unbelievably, it was Hu Xiong who was killed."

"Savage, just too savage."

"Even for the Tiger Demon Sect, which produced numerous experts, raising a Master of the Sixth Realm was no easy task. I imagine the Tiger Demon Sect is so devastated they can’t even bring themselves to cry over this."

"Ling Chen, that boy, is truly the super genius from the Righteous Path everyone says he is. By killing Hu Xiong, he has fiercely established his might. From now on, no one will dare to underestimate him."

Countless whispered discussions spread around Sky Demon Peak.

The Tiger Demon Sect Master’s face turned deathly pale. He seemed unable to believe the scene before him, his body trembling, on the verge of exploding with rage. Suddenly, he threw his head back and let out a desolate roar, "Heavens! How could my son die at the hands of such a despicable whelp?! I cannot accept this! I simply cannot accept it!"

"Hmph, whether you accept it or not is irrelevant," Elder Beiming gloated, a satisfied smile on his face. "I’ve said it before: those who dare to oppose the Saintess’s son will undoubtedly meet a grim fate. This applies not only to your Tiger Demon Sect but also to you, the Green-faced Demon Sect, Leopard Demon Sect, and Bull Demon Sect. Your younger generation, those geniuses of the Demon Way, will all perish one by one. Anyone who disrespects the young master, even Yan Xiang, will die in there."

"Damn you, you old undying fiend!" The Tiger Demon Sect Master whirled around, his lungs practically bursting with rage. "Beiming Old Ghost, from this moment on, my Tiger Demon Sect and you are irreconcilable enemies! Generation after generation, ours will be an irreconcilable blood feud!"

"The same goes for my Green-faced Demon Sect! We will not rest until you are dead!" The Green-faced Demon Sect’s representative’s eyes blazed, brimming with murderous intent. "Don’t forget, Yan Xiang’s Cultivation has reached the level of a Seventh-Level Grandmaster. He is far stronger than Hu Xiong! Yan Xiang will definitely kill Ling Chen and avenge your Tiger Demon Sect!"

"Kill him! If this brat doesn’t die, it’s an offense against heavenly justice!"

The leaders of the Bull Demon Sect and Leopard Demon Sect also roared in unison. They were allied with the Tiger Demon Sect. With all the disciples of the Tiger Demon Sect lineage slain and their losses so heavy, they feared they would be next. Ling Chen had to be killed.

BOOM!

Inside the Sky Demon Tower, the True Qi Shield in front of Hu Xiong shattered in an instant, exploding outwards.

A Sword Light pierced through Hu Xiong’s heart, exiting from his back.

Ling Chen clamped his hand on Hu Xiong’s neck. Without wasting words, he directly snapped it. Then, he activated the Absorption Technique and began to frantically draw out the True Qi from his opponent’s body.

Hu Xiong had cultivated for many years, and his internal True Qi was abundant. Even Ling Chen found it difficult to digest it all at once. In particular, the tiger- and leopard-form True Qi Hu Xiong cultivated was exceptionally pure; a single breath of it was equivalent to ten breaths from an ordinary person.

However, Ling Chen was not in a hurry. Having killed Hu Xiong, he obtained all his accumulated resources. His opponent’s True Qi further boosted his power. His Cultivation, having just broken through to the Third Level Great Master level, became far more consolidated.

As for his opponent’s Demon Soul Bead, it had already been drained by Ling Chen’s own Demon Soul Bead, transferring all the points to him.

"Oh heavens, Tiger Junior is dead!"

"Tiger Junior has fallen, he’s been killed! We need to escape, quickly!"

The moment Ling Chen killed Hu Xiong, the young Demon Way experts under his command scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing in all directions.

But how could these individuals possibly escape Ling Chen’s pursuit?

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

The remaining Sword Light radiating from Ling Chen shot out like meteors, slaying all the remaining experts of the Tiger Demon Sect lineage.

"Hmm?"

Inside the Sky Demon Tower, Yan Xiang’s brow suddenly twitched. His expression turned grave as he thought, Unexpectedly, Hu Xiong and all the disciples from the Tiger Demon Sect lineage have vanished from the Devil Scroll. It appears they’ve all perished. Moreover, Ling Chen’s points have leaped dramatically, catapulting him into the top five. He was only eighth before; it’s astonishing he climbed so quickly. I can only conclude that Ling Chen killed Hu Xiong and his men.

Yan Xiang was surrounded by a group of young Demon Way experts, far more numerous than Hu Xiong’s retinue. After all, Yan Xiang was a direct disciple of Sikong Yi, his status incomparable to Hu Xiong’s.

Chu Tiange exclaimed in shock, "What? Hu Xiong, a Master of the Sixth Realm? His Cultivation was comparable to yours before, Teacher Yan Xiang, and he always loved to compete with you. Yet Ling Chen killed him? This boy’s strength has increased so astonishingly! Although I’d heard his strength was advancing by leaps and bounds under the training of prominent figures from the Saintess Hall, like Fire Crow Taoist and Black Swordsman, I hadn’t anticipated such immense progress. Hu Xiong, along with so many of his followers, was killed by Ling Chen alone! This man is truly a grave threat and must be eliminated."

"I saw it too," Yan Xiang responded calmly. "I underestimated Ling Chen. While Hu Xiong’s strength wasn’t equal to mine, he was, after all, The Master of the Sixth Realm. To be killed just like that... it seems Ling Chen has advanced another Realm."

"Advancing just one Realm made him this terrifying? If he continues to advance several more Realms, wouldn’t all of us be doomed to die without a burial place?" a disciple from the Skypiercing Peak Lineage cried out.

"Exactly! That’s why we must eliminate him as soon as possible!"

Yan Xiang’s eyes glinted like torches. "I have summoning talismans here for the experts of the Green-faced Demon Sect, Bull Demon Sect, and Leopard Demon Sect. I’ll crush them now to summon these experts to gather with me. We mustn’t let Ling Chen defeat us individually. My master has already announced that whoever kills Ling Chen will be one step closer to becoming the Sect Leader’s successor. My senior martial brothers are probably all eyeing this coveted prize. I cannot afford to miss this opportunity."

"But Teacher Yan Xiang, Ling Chen is acting alone, and his movements are erratic. How can we possibly find him?" a young expert asked.

"Don’t worry about that," Yan Xiang said, a cryptic, cold smile appearing on his face. "In the Green-faced Demon Sect, there’s a fellow named Gou Santong who possesses an incredibly keen sense of smell. Once he has smelled something, he never forgets it for the rest of his life. Moreover, he can track a scent for a thousand li. With his Divine Power, he can undoubtedly pinpoint Ling Chen’s exact location. Then, we will all join forces to annihilate him. He will be doomed."
