Chapter 99: The First Killing Array of the Devil's Path

  This time the agreed place was thirty miles west of Xicheng Gate, where there was a vast grassland. Yan Zhen hurriedly used Eight Steps to Chase the Cicada and quickly arrived at that location.

  Yan Zhen sized up the first person of the Demon Sect's four people, Hei Xing. This man called Hei Xing had a face as dark as a murderer, and was simply a big, sturdy black man.

  The second person of the Black Water Demon Sect is called Wuyun, who is a beautiful young woman with a melon-seed-shaped face, excellent figure, and slightly small breasts. Her legs are extremely long, and her only shortcoming is that her skin is too dark all over her body, but she also has a kind of black beauty, with a unique charm.

  The third person of Heishui Sect is really despicable and has a very sordid appearance.

  The fourth person of Heishui Sect, Xuanshui, has a pale face, but his complexion is somewhat too pale, giving people a feeling of being strong on the outside and weak on the inside.

  These four people each have their own characteristics, and the combination of these four people forms a magnificent array, known as the number one killing array in the demonic path on the foundation building stage.

  The first killer array is naturally formidable.

  Yan Zhen also knew that the four of them had come to kick up a fuss, wanting to suppress the morale of the cultivators by defeating him. But if he won, he would immediately become the number one expert recognized by the Foundation Establishment platform.

  This challenge is worth fighting for!

  Just as Yan Zhen was about to make his move, three people suddenly appeared at an extremely fast speed. These three people were familiar to Yan Zhen and were all famous cultivators in the Foundation Building stage.

  The first person is Feng Xing, a young man wearing white clothes with his hair scattered and dancing in the wind. He has an elegant and unrestrained temperament. It's said that his footwork is unimaginably fast, and his swordsmanship is also incredibly swift. This person is a renowned master among cultivators on this side of the Foundation Building stage.

  The second person is Liu Shui, a young man with a lazy expression. He sits lazily under the sun, his eyes half-closed and lacking spirit. However, Liu Shui should not be underestimated. It's said that he has mastered three to four sword sources, and his strength is unparalleled, making him a top-notch cultivator.

  The third person is Bai Jing, a young woman with a veil covering her face, making it impossible to see her true appearance, but giving off an otherworldly aura. She is said to be from the Qingjing Xianmen sect and excels in the Great Compassionate Sword Technique. She is also one of the top masters among cultivators.

  Feng Xing smiled slightly: "Xie Jian, you're challenging the first killing array of the Demon Dao, the Great Array of Flowing Clouds and Water. Can I challenge it before you?"

  The lazy stream said: "No way, who made me lose to this killing array once before? Now that my strength has increased a bit, I'm not willing to challenge it again with some regret."

  "I was also defeated by this swift and fierce move back then, now I want to challenge it again." Bai Jing said aloud.

  Yan Zhen listened to this and shrugged: "You three want to challenge the first killing array of the Demon Dao, you go ahead, I don't care."

  "Alright, I'll go first," Feng Xing said.

  In an instant, four demon cultivators, Hei Xing, Wu Yun, Xia Liu, and Xuan Shui, stood at the four corners, their positions not entirely equidistant, but subtly conforming to the Four Symbols method, where the Four Symbols govern the Four Dragons, generating and transforming all things.

  Yan Zhen only saw the immortal cultivator rushing into the formation, his sword out of its scabbard, his sword extremely fast, his sword blocking the black line, dark clouds, and downpouring attacks, after which he directly charged towards Xuan Shui, apparently wanting to use Xuan Shui as a breakthrough point, once he defeated Xuan Shui this formation would be broken.

  At first, the demon cultivator Xuan Shui was indeed somewhat defeated, but for some reason, the sword of the immortal cultivator Feng Xing became slower and slower, and the rhythm gradually fell into the hands of the four demon cultivators. Although Feng Xing was a master, he was trapped in it, fighting one against four, and ultimately died at their hands.

  One of the four cultivators, Feng Xing, has already lost.

  "Next, it's my turn." The cultivator Flowing Water said: "I heard that the Evil Sword previously took on five opponents at once and emerged victorious against five foes who had grasped the Source of the Sword. Let me see if I can take on four opponents at once and defeat four foes who have grasped the Source of the Sword."

  Suddenly, he entered the formation and drew his sword instantly. His sword light flowed with three different sword sources appearing from time to time: the Slashing Sword Source, the Sweeping Sword Source, and the Piercing Sword Source. The three sword sources dancing together were indeed formidable. However, after entering the Flowing Water Great Formation, his swordsmanship was not as smooth as he had hoped, and gradually, the rhythm fell into the hands of the four demon cultivators. In just a moment, he was stabbed by multiple swords, and finally, his health was depleted, disappearing in an instant.

  One of the four cultivators, Liu Shui, also lost.

  "I'm here." The speaker was Bai Jing of the Qingjing Xianmen. Her hand grasped the hilt of her sword. As the Qingjing Xianmen and Heishui Mosheng had been sworn enemies for a long time, she was quite familiar with their formation. Before the battle began, she had already thought about how to break through the Yunliu Shui Da Zhen, first by disrupting its rhythm.

  Bai Jing's hands suddenly moved, but relaxed the sword hilt and took out the guqin she carried with her. The people of Qingjing Xianmen were skilled in the art of sound killing with the guqin, and Bai Jing immediately began to pluck the strings with both hands, playing a piece called "Shachang Dianbing". For a time, only the sound of the guqin came from her, containing profound power that continuously impacted the rhythm of the "Hanyun Liu Shui" formation, determined to break its rhythm.

  Four confident swordsmen of the Demon Sect, believing they are the strongest killing formation in the demonic path. The four joined forces and simultaneously released their swords to defend against the omnipresent sound waves, which gradually weakened, while Bai Jing was also suppressed by these four demon cultivators and finally dissipated into a point of light.

  Four cultivators, including Bai Jing, lost, leaving only Yan Zhen alone.

  The current situation is quite unfavorable for cultivators. Now that the cultivators have seen the power of the Great Array of Clouds and Water, this array is too difficult to break through.

  The Evil Sword is indeed formidable, creating miracles. However, Feng Xing, Liu Shui, and Bai Jing are the three strongest cultivators in the foundation stage, and they all lost. It's becoming increasingly difficult for the Evil Sword to win.

  ……

  Yan Zhen also saw the current situation.

  Yan Zhen smiled and stepped into the arena: "It seems I'm the only one left."

  The demon cultivator Wuyun nodded: "Right, only you are left. In fact, this battle was also triggered by you. If it wasn't for your previous handling of Bao Huo Youyan being too extreme, the four of us wouldn't have come out either."

  "Yes, now everyone is spreading the rumor that you defeated thirteen sword source level cultivators. It's said that they were beaten to the point of being bedridden." Xuan Shui, a demonic cultivator, said: "If this kind of talk continues, the morale on our side will be suppressed, and most people will soon develop psychological shadows. Therefore, we must take action against you."

  "Faced with the four of us, you will definitely lose. You've already lost 4 to 1, and your image halo will be broken." The demon cultivator let out a sly smile: "This is my plan, how about it? Not bad, right? In fact, Feng Xing, Bai Jing, and Liu Shui are just accompaniments for this battle, the real show has only just begun."

  "Good plan, good plan." Yan Zhen nodded and applauded, the sound of clapping echoing out: "Unfortunately, you chose me as your target. If it were someone else, you might have succeeded. But since you ran into me, you're doomed to fail. It's not that you're too weak, but rather I'm too strong."

  The beautiful black beauty, Yu Yun, couldn't help but smile: "You are the most arrogant person I have ever met."

  "Uh, it's not actually arrogance, just stating a fact, you'll believe it soon enough." Yan Zhen said very seriously.
