The flying knife hit the calf of the handso young man.
His heart and spirit were completely drawn to the Bright Moon Divine Sword, leaving him unable to notice this silent and stealthy knife.
By the ti he realized sothing was amiss and wanted to dodge, it was already too late.
Golden light imdiately flickered.
"Ah!"
The handso young man let out a miserable scream.
Instantly, his entire body was enveloped in dazzling golden light.
Within the swirling golden light, he suddenly turned into a fox-headed human body.
The golden light abruptly burst forth, like a golden fla suddenly leaping up, completely engulfing him.
Then the golden light vanished.
He disappeared along with it.
This scene left all the people around montarily stunned before they resud their actions.
The Bright Moon, ford by the Bright Moon Divine Sword, continued to rise brightly.
Other disciples of Guanghan Palace thrust their longswords at the other elegant young n.
Only Lu Xiaolu remained by Chu Zhiyuan’s side, her delicate face tense, her small cherry-like mouth tightly pressed, her bright eyes gleaming.
Chu Zhiyuan felt the white silk around his waist tighten, clearly indicating that she was operating her power, ready to pull him aside to dodge at any mont.
The Bright Moon floated towards an elegant young man.
The elegant young man snorted angrily, "What are you doing, fellow junior sisters?"
As he spoke, he drew his sword and shouted angrily, "All together now!"
Four young n stood shoulder to shoulder with him, jointly drawing their swords to face Qi Qingi.
Qi Qingi, in mid-air, let out a cold laugh as the Bright Moon from the sky suddenly descended.
"Ding ding ding ding..."
In the clear ringing, the five swords simultaneously swayed, causing them to stagger backward.
The violent force transmitted from the swords made their bodies go limp, rendering them temporarily powerless.
Just at this mont, five clear beams of light suddenly shot into their left calves.
These five beams of light, like ice shards slicing through spring water, flickered indistinctly.
They wanted to avoid them but were helpless, only able to watch as the flying knives struck.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
...
The five of them almost simultaneously let out screams of agony.
Golden light flashed on their bodies, then turned into golden flas.
Amidst the golden flas, they transford into fox-headed, human-bodied demons, then were obliterated together with the golden light.
"Run!"
An elegant young man roared angrily.
His clothes billowed fiercely, his head instantly turned into a fox’s, then he turned to flee.
In the blink of an eye, he had shot out over ten ters.
"Hmph!" Qi Qingi coldly laughed again, brandishing her sword as the Bright Moon rose once more.
The Bright Moon suddenly flickered, seemingly teleporting to appear instantaneously in front of them.
"Fight!"
The remaining few fox-headed, human-bodied demons roared.
Yet their bodies simultaneously shot in various directions, desperately fleeing.
As they turned, they hadn’t noticed the soundless flying knives waiting there for them.
Their total attention was still captivated by the bright Bright Moon, causing them to overlook the transparent small knives.
By the ti they reacted, the flying knives had already struck their shoulders.
"Ah!"
The screams were particularly miserable, causing listeners’ hearts to jump with fright.
Simultaneously, golden light flickered, then turned into golden flas, seemingly burning them to ashes in an instant.
The won’s eyes were drawn to these five transparent flying knives, watching as they lightly slipped into Chu Zhiyuan’s sleeve.
Chu Zhiyuan, under the gaze of the won, revealed an embarrassed expression, clasped his fists and said, "Senior Sister Qi, I’ve taken advantage of this."
"It was a good advantage to take!" Qi Qingi sheathed her sword, "Is this the Demon Suppressing Saber?"
"Yes."
"No wonder Master Lu speaks highly of it as an Absolute Skill." Qi Qingi said casually, "If not for your Demon Suppressing Saber, it wouldn’t have been so easy to deal with these fox demons."
Lu Xiaolu snorted, "These thousand-faced fox demons are slippery and difficult to catch alive."
Qi Qingi said, "Do they have demon energy on them?"
"Yes," Chu Zhiyuan said, "You can sll it on them from afar."
"Very well." Qi Qingi nodded with satisfaction, "With you here, we can travel without worries."
Lu Xiaolu exclaid excitedly, "Then we can quickly reach Qinglian Sea."
Qi Qingi nodded, "Let’s go, pick up the pace!"
"Yes!"
They once again ford their team and continued westward.
Lu Xiaolu curiously observed Chu Zhiyuan.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Senior Sister Lu, is there sothing wrong with my face?"
Lu Xiaolu said in earnest, "This Demon Suppressing Saber is really strong, isn’t it? You’re only in the Qi Transformation Realm, how can you be so formidable?"
She had never thought soone in the Qi Transformation Realm could kill a Venerable, and do so with such ease.
They couldn’t understand this.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Perhaps my Demon Suppressing Saber specializes in restraining evil demons."
"There are skills that specifically counter evil demons, but none so powerful as this." Lu Xiaolu looked at Qi Qingi, "Senior Sister, are there any?"
Qi Qingi said coolly, "The legendary Demon Suppression Peak supposedly has skills specifically ant to counter evil demons, with formidable power, like the blazing sun lting snow. However, they’re ancient legends, and there’s no known legacy."
Lu Xiaolu said in amazent, "Could Junior Brother Chu’s Demon Suppressing Saber be that legacy from Demon Suppression Peak?"
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and laughed, "I encountered it by chance in the Little Outer Heaven."
"The Little Outer Heaven..." Lu Xiaolu turned to Qi Qingi again, "Senior Sister, do you know about this Little Outer Heaven?"
Qi Qingi shook her head, "It’s a secret of Heavenly Sword Peak. It hasn’t been revealed all these years. ...Junior Brother Chu, you don’t have to say much."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Qi," Chu Zhiyuan said respectfully.
Lu Xiaolu said, "Senior Sister Qi, aren’t you curious about this Demon Suppressing Saber?"
"Less talk, more speed." Qi Qingi snorted.
Lu Xiaolu pursed her cherry lips and said nothing further.
They flew faster and faster, their clothes fluttering in the wind. Chu Zhiyuan felt like a wisp of floating foam, carried forward by the wind.
The white silk at his waist infused a clear, brisk air, lifting him up.
...
Chu Liezhao suddenly appeared in the Demon Suppression Divine Palace, observing the grand hall where golden lights floated.
Thus, Chu Zhiyuan witnessed the situation in the Demon Suppression Divine Palace.
Thirteen thousand-faced fox demons perished under the Demon Suppressing Saber, transforming into thirteen masses of golden light.
These thirteen clusters of golden light were much brighter compared to the remaining ones, like a bright moon among stars.
Chu Zhiyuan speculated that it might be because their cultivation level was much higher than the other demons.
This seemingly simple task wouldn’t have been as easy without Qi Qingi and the others holding them at bay, making it effortless to eliminate these thirteen thousand-faced fox demons.
Their speed and cunning required Chu Zhiyuan to join forces with Qi Qingi and the others to exterminate them with ease.
He wished to absorb this golden light now, to impact his ancestral acupoint imdiately.
But alas, he had to continue to endure.
He withdrew his focus and quickly began to operate True Yuan, cultivating with the Heavenly Sword Secret Scripture.
Lu Xiaolu glanced at him and shook her head, "So diligent."
She was now fully responsible for carrying them along, no longer the previous state of him traveling while she supplented, increasing their speed.
Chu Zhiyuan took advantage of the mont to cultivate.
He opened his eyes and smiled, "I wish to beco a Venerable as soon as possible, so I can go down the mountain to vanquish evil demons."
"Becoming a Venerable isn’t that easy," Lu Xiaolu said.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded, smiling as he closed his eyes to continue cultivating.
After a while, his body suddenly swelled like a balloon, then deflated.
Lu Xiaolu’s eyes widened.
Qi Qingi turned to glance at Chu Zhiyuan, nodding slightly, "He’s advanced to another transition of Qi Transformation, probably the Third Transition?"
Lu Xiaolu nodded, "It’s the Third Turn in Qi Transformation."
Qi Qingi said nothing more, continuing on their way.
An hour later, Chu Zhiyuan’s clothes swelled again, then deflated.
Lu Xiaolu’s eyes widened even more.
Qi Qingi turned to glance, nodding lightly, "Fourth Transition."
"This..." Lu Xiaolu hurriedly said, "Isn’t this too fast?"
"Maybe it’s a matter of accumulated effort," Qi Qingi said.
Lu Xiaolu snorted, "I want to see how fast he can really cultivate."
Regardless, the speed from the Third to the Fourth Transition was indeed astonishing.
