The Blade-Wielding Legend
Chapter 1560 - 794: Earth Immortal Attack (Part 3)
What kind of Evil Skill is this?!
Lv San was both shocked and furious. Just as he was about to strike again, his heart suddenly tightened, and he jerked his head up to look at the night sky.
In the pitch‑black night shrouded by thick fog, there came a clattering sound and a heavy buzzing roar, growing louder and louder, as if something was descending.
It’s Lin Zhongweng!
In an instant, Lv San knew what it was.
From the way Tian Qianhu had died and the scene at the time, he had guessed it was some sort of Beast Taming Skill, using a type of Exotic Beast or Exotic Insect unknown to the world.
Lin Zhongweng was also the demon they were currently hunting.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lv San slapped the demon gourd at his waist; Poison Bees howled out like black smoke as he shouted, "Daoist Dragon!"
Unlike the others, he was reserved by nature and always addressed Long Yan’er as "Daoist."
Long Yan’er understood at once. She swung her arm and released the sesame gu.
The Gu Worms clung to the Poison Bees and howled out with them.
This was the move they had discussed beforehand, prepared specially to deal with Lin Zhongweng.
Quicker said than done, the thing rushing out of the night sky finally showed itself.
Unexpectedly, it was not some Exotic Insect, but countless densely packed hummingbirds no bigger than a thumb, mixed with several huge owls.
Those owls had faces like human faces, their two eyes glinting with a sly, venomous red light.
In just a heartbeat, the Poison Bees collided with the incoming flock.
The thumb‑sized hummingbirds were extremely vicious. Their heads twitched, their beaks moving as fast as lightning, shua‑shua‑shua as they devoured the Poison Bees one after another, while the feathers on their bodies blocked the bee stings.
One could say they were the perfect nemesis of Lu San’s Demon Gourd.
But the sesame gu on the Poison Bees also took the chance to burrow into their bodies.
Soon those hummingbirds were writhing in agony, going into a frenzy and beginning to attack their own kind.
The sky instantly descended into chaos.
"Strike!"
At the center of the altar ground, Wang Daoxuan swung his money sword and pointed forward.
Whoosh~
The candles arranged on the case flared violently; the flames spurted out toward the ground, and those blood‑colored monstrous hands tugging at Sha Lifei began to spasm nonstop, bubbling with blood before bursting apart.
Kong Shangzhao seized the opportunity and finally yanked the two of them back.
Sha Lifei’s face was deathly pale. When he came to his senses, his heart still thudded in lingering fear.
But in that single moment of chaos, one "Ghost-faced Owl" swooped down from the sky with a shriek, its razor‑sharp talons clawing onto a Five Directions Luo Feng Flag.
The Five Directions Luo Feng Flag was a Daluo Magical Artifact; naturally this demon beast could not take it away. Assailed by pure Netherworld Qi, it lost its life in an instant, frost congealing across its body as it turned into a lump of ice.
With a thud it crashed to the ground, but it also tugged the Magic Flag slightly out of position.
"Long have we sung farewell, grief turned to ash, where the red burns brightest... it scatters in waves of smoke and embers!"
"Pray that someone remembers someone, through the years of the Netherworld!"
The venomous operatic singing of the Ghost-faced Rakshasa rang out right on cue.
With the Array breached, everyone’s spirits jolted.
Whoosh~
In an instant, a fierce wind whipped up all around.
A streak of black smoke howled in, forming into a human shape in midair and landing atop the magic platform. The candle flames turned a ghastly green in a heartbeat, illuminating the indifferent features of an old man within the black smoke.
Yin Soul Patrol!
Before anyone could react, two hands reached out of the black smoke and slapped straight onto Wang Daoxuan and Lv San, knocking them unconscious. The black smoke wrapped the pair up, howled skyward, and vanished into the night.
"An Earth Immortal..."
Fatty Lin’s face went chalk‑white.
Yin Soul Patrol, and able to snatch people away.
Such methods could only be performed by an Earth Immortal—and a top‑tier one at that.
At the same time, a Yellow Scroll drifted down slowly from the sky.
To Lord Li Gouhun, Soul Hooker, for your esteemed perusal:
Your office has two ’star actors’ whom we shall borrow for the time being to rehearse a new piece. If you wish their fleshly shells intact and their souls complete, please prepare the Soul Hooking Iron Scroll for an exchange.
Tomorrow, at midnight sharp, Qinhuai River, "Red Silk House."
We await your grand arrival, to savor a fine performance together.
