Chapter 3: Slaying Demons Amidst the Stormy Night
“Hahahahaha!”
The Tiger Demon couldn't help but burst into wild laughter, its roar like thunder, startling the birds and beasts in the forest into scattering and fleeing.
“Hahahahaha! Cultivator, you yourself are about to lose your life, yet you still think of taking mine?”
“Go to hell!”
Dozens of Corpse Ghosts surged forward one after another. No matter how powerful that Cultivator in the Foundation Realm was, how long could he last?
It wasn't as if no Cultivators had tried to come and slay demons for fame before, but wasn't it still reigning supreme in this Green Screen Mountain?
Gusts of Cold Wind blew, accompanied by the wailing of ghosts and wolves!
The Demonic Qi formed by dozens of Corpse Ghosts was simply overwhelming!
That chilling, twisted Demonic Qi enveloped an area of over a hundred feet, with Corpse Ghosts hidden within the dense Demonic Qi, revealing only glimpses, making the surroundings of the mountain temple appear like a ghost realm.
When the old man saw Jiang Sheng surrounded by so many Corpse Ghosts, his spirit completely deflated, and he slumped to the ground, utterly powerless.
“It’s over, it’s all over! The Cultivator is dead, and we, grandfather and grandson, are going to die too!”
The little grandson was so scared his face turned pale, his body trembled, and he couldn't utter a single word.
The Tiger Demon at this point turned its head to look at the grandfather and grandson in the dilapidated mountain temple, baring its blood-stained maw and grinning ferociously, “You two mere humans, do not fret. After I devour that tender-skinned Cultivator, I will eat your grandson, and then it will be your turn!”
Hearing this, the old man burst into tears, crying uncontrollably, “It’s all my fault! Grandson! It’s all Grandpa’s fault! If only Grandpa had listened to the Cultivator!”
The old man truly regretted it. If he had believed Jiang Sheng earlier and taken his little grandson to leave safely, they wouldn't be trapped here now, unable to escape.
Just as the old man was regretting, beating his chest, and shedding tears, Jiang Sheng’s voice suddenly rang out from within the ghost realm, “If you expect these Corpse Ghosts to exhaust this humble Cultivator to death, then the Mountain Lord is probably thinking too much.”
The Tiger Demon turned back in astonishment, only to see that the eerie ghost realm, which had been perfectly fine a moment ago, now had cracks full of light, like a glass sphere!
“Crack, crack, crack”
Like shattering glass, the chilling ghost realm instantly crumbled!
The Tiger Demon clearly saw Jiang Sheng standing in place like a green pine, not moving an inch, his long sword unleashing streaks of green Sword Qi!
The Sword Qi pierced through the ghost realm, and the Corpse Ghosts were directly torn apart, wailing in pain as they vanished without a trace.
As one Corpse Ghost was annihilated by the Sword Qi, one after another, Corpse Ghosts continuously transformed into Demonic Qi and returned to the heavens and earth.
The Tiger Demon watched this scene, its heart bleeding!
Those were all its Corpse Ghosts, its capital, its Foundation for dominating Green Screen Mountain!
The Tiger Demon couldn't bear to watch its Corpse Ghosts continue to be cleared away by Jiang Sheng like this.
It roared to the sky, its furious howl shaking the mountain forest, and rolling sound waves broke through the air like an air cannon, heading straight for Jiang Sheng.
“Kill!”
With a roar, the Demonic Tiger leaped up, its ten-foot body pouncing towards Jiang Sheng like a small mountain, a hungry tiger preying!
“Cultivator, be careful!”
Seeing Jiang Sheng still alive, the old man was overjoyed, but then seeing the Demonic Tiger attack, he quickly shouted a reminder.
Jiang Sheng had a calm and collected expression, completely unfazed by the Tiger Demon's offensive. With a twist of his body, he nimbly dodged the Demonic Tiger's pounce, like a cloud swallow.
When the Tiger Demon missed and turned to look for Jiang Sheng, it saw that Jiang Sheng was already standing on its Mountain God Altar!
That was its position!
“You damned Cultivator!”
The Tiger Demon was enraged and humiliated, opening its mouth to gather power, and infinite Demonic Power converged within its maw.
With the Tiger Demon’s roar, that Demonic Power instantly transformed into a wind column that erupted from its mouth, instantly stirring up the night rain and strong winds. It charged through the rain curtain with the momentum to shred everything, heading straight for Jiang Sheng.
Tigers follow the wind!
The Tiger Demon naturally had the aid of wind, and after becoming a demon, it was even more proficient in various wind techniques. This move, Wind Roar, could transform rolling Demonic Wind into a tornado that swept across to kill enemies!
Jiang Sheng, however, remained calm. His right hand slowly raised the three-foot Qingfeng sword to the sky: “A mere trick.”
As the wind column howled towards him, Jiang Sheng calmly swung down the long sword in his hand: “Slay!”
The blooming green lotuses wrapped around the black long sword on the black long sword bloomed, and a light green Sword Qi surged, spanning a hundred feet!
The green Sword Qi collided with the Tiger Demon's Wind Roar, and the rolling Demonic Wind tornado, condensed from Demonic Qi, was instantly pierced through by the Sword Qi!
The violent roaring Demonic Wind melted into the heavens and earth in the blink of an eye.
The old man and his grandson watched this scene with wide eyes: This Cultivator is actually so powerful?!
Could he be an Immortal descended to the mortal realm?!
Jiang Sheng looked at the Tiger Demon and smiled slightly: “Mountain Lord, do you have any other abilities you haven't used yet? If the Mountain Lord has exhausted its tricks, then you will die!”
“Damn it! Damn it! Damned human!” The Tiger Demon’s face was already twisted with a mixture of anger and fear!
This Cultivator in front of him was too terrifying!
He had many methods, powerful abilities, and a mysterious origin!
He didn't know when such a powerful Cultivator had appeared in Green Mountain County, and he even wanted to take his territory!
Too terrifying!
The Tiger Demon was already afraid, but it also knew that if it didn't kill Jiang Sheng, it wouldn't be able to escape at all!
Suddenly, the Tiger Demon's eyes darted, and it had an idea: It couldn't defeat Jiang Sheng, but what about a sneak attack?
If it pretended to surrender first, and then ambushed Jiang Sheng when he was unprepared, wouldn't it be able to devour this Cultivator with its abilities?
With this thought, the Tiger Demon suddenly prostrated itself on the ground: “Cultivator’s Divine Might, this humble demon is willing to serve as your mount. Cultivator, please spare this humble demon’s life!”
The grandfather and grandson were overjoyed: “The Cultivator has really subdued this Tiger Demon!”
The old man, with his dim eyesight, couldn't distinguish truth from falsehood, but Jiang Sheng saw clearly that the Demonic Tiger seemingly bowed its head deeply in submission, but the cunning and ruthlessness in its eyes remained undiminished!
“Oh? If that’s the case, then this humble Cultivator will spare your life.” Jiang Sheng said, sheathing his sword and deliberately taking a few steps forward.
A chance!
The Demonic Tiger knew that the opportunity it had been waiting for had arrived. The seemingly defenseless Jiang Sheng in front of him could no longer escape!
“You mere human, die for me!”
The Tiger Demon roared and suddenly leaped up, its ten-foot tiger body erupting with infinite power!
Enveloped by rolling Demonic Wind, the massive Tiger Demon howled as it pounced straight towards Jiang Sheng.
Its pair of eerie green beast eyes held ferocity and delight!
When the old man saw this scene, his heart almost leaped out of his throat. This Tiger Demon actually played a trick!
The Tiger Demon attacked with boundless might, a foul wind assaulting their faces, and a tiger's malevolence suppressing their souls!
This Tiger Demon was clearly using all its strength to ambush and kill Jiang Sheng!
But Jiang Sheng's expression remained calm at this moment.
“I knew you would do this!”
“Jiang Liu!”
The Qingfeng sword was unsheathed, and the sword was like river water.
In a trance, one could see the full moon reflecting in the sky, and river water flowing eastward.
The Demonic Tiger only saw the Sword Qi surging like a great river!
The grandfather and grandson widened their eyes even further, as if a great river truly appeared before everyone's eyes, and there was even the sound of surging river water flowing eastward.
In an instant, the wind and rain stopped abruptly, and all was silent.
With a “boom,” the massive body of the Demonic Tiger fell from mid-air to the ground, its breath already gone.
At this moment, the rain had thinned and the wind had ceased, the dark clouds had dispersed, and the clear, cold moonlight shone down from the high heavens, illuminating an area of a hundred feet.
The Daoist stood with his sword, his face like jade, handsome and refined.
The old man, who had witnessed the entire process, couldn't help but murmur to himself, “Cultivator, you truly are an Immortal descended to the mortal realm!”
Alas, there are so many unearthed artifacts in the gay community.
