Chapter 974: Chapter 942: Killing the Chicken to Warn the Monkey, Shocking All Around

Seeing the two Nascent Soul Demon Emperors react like this under Lu Ping’s attack, Elder Jiang and the others were surprised and realized even more how powerful Lu Ping truly was.

This first Nascent Soul of Lingxi State probably has to be none other than Lu Ping.

"Boom——"

Amidst the loud booming sounds, as sword qi scattered wildly, the purple light barrier finally could not withstand it and developed several cracks.

Lu Ping’s eyes shone brightly, and upon seeing this, he continued to use the Thousand Spirits Immortal Slaying Sword to unleash the "Phantom Thousand Swords" attack.

In his hand, a flash of light revealed another Immortal Sword.

This is the Thousand-Star Demon-Slaying Sword!

Unlike the Thousand Spirits Immortal Slaying Sword, the Thousand-Star Demon-Slaying Sword is a pure Immortal Sword, enhancing its power by slaying demons.

It is also a sword designed for extermination.

"This sword is..."

Seeing the Thousand-Star Demon-Slaying Sword appear, Taiqi Peak’s expression changed, attracted by the momentum emitted from this Immortal Sword.

Even from a distance, he could feel the immense power radiating from this Immortal Sword, which was truly astonishing.

"It’s the Thousand-Star Demon-Slaying Sword."

Elder Jiang had seen this Immortal Sword before and slowly spoke of its origin.

One righteous, one evil, the appearance of these two swords firmly captured everyone’s attention.

The Purple Jade Celestial Python’s expression changed drastically, and he no longer cared about the consumption of magical power, frantically urging his power into the Purple Light Bead.

An even more intense purple light barrier appeared, unfurling a defense.

At the same moment, from afar, the sound of ships breaking through the sky could be heard.

Over a dozen large flying ships moved across the sky, carrying a domineering aura, appearing at the Southern Wilderness border.

Facing the sudden arrival of these flying ships, Lu Ping did not glance sideways; instead, after probing with his divine sense, he found that those arriving were cultivators of the Dubhe Institute.

The leader, an acquaintance, was Liu Taixuan.

Beside him stood Xu Dezhi.

Evidently, upon discovering the beast tide activity in the Southern Wilderness Forest, the Dubhe Institute also dispatched personnel to suppress it.

And they sent two Nascent Soul True Monarchs at once, which was quite a significant move.

Looking at the cultivators on the Dubhe Institute’s flying ships, there were over three thousand individuals, mainly in the Foundation Establishment and Crystallization stages.

"It’s the people from Nine Cold Mountain, Heaven-Facing Sect, and Cyan Mountain Sect."

On the flying ship of the Dubhe Institute, Xu Dezhi glanced around and instantly recognized the origins of Lu Ping and the others.

Once they caught a glimpse of Lu Ping’s figure, both Xu Dezhi and Liu Taixuan’s expressions shifted, feeling somewhat surprised.

This top-notch Nascent Soul expert, Lu Ping, not only personally came to the Southern Wilderness frontline but was also currently taking action.

What kind of demon beast is so unfortunate to have been targeted by such a formidable figure?

As they looked over, they saw the Thousand Spirits Immortal Slaying Sword still in full swing, with thousands of demon swords it conjured being overwhelmingly powerful, even under the reinforced purple light barrier of the Purple Jade Celestial Python.

In just a few breaths, it forcefully broke through the purple light barrier again.

In an instant, both the Purple Jade Celestial Python and the Earth Fire Rock Lion were exposed to the Thousand Spirits Immortal Slaying Sword’s attack, both furrowing their brows and feeling extremely apprehensive.

However, at this moment, there was no way to avoid it, so they could only stand their ground.

Clang clang clang.

Under the frenzied onslaught of thousands of demon swords, these two Great Demons were submerged in boundless sword qi.

Relying on multiple treasures to resist, they were able to hold off for a few more breaths.

The defensive power of their defensive treasures was being worn down layer by layer, and it was clear it wouldn’t hold for much longer.

However, since Lu Ping chose to act, he intended to use the situation to kill and assert his dominance, to serve as a warning.

Amidst the magnificent sword stream, the Thousand-Star Demon-Slaying Sword began to demonstrate its might, unleashing the Mountain-Breaking Sword under Lu Ping’s execution of the Celestial Departure Sword Technique.

This Immortal Sword, shining brightly, went straight forward, directly slashing towards the Earth Fire Rock Lion.

The Earth Fire Rock Lion’s expression changed as it sensed that its defensive measures were clearly unable to withstand it, preparing to use the Nascent Soul Instant Teleportation technique to escape a certain distance, first resolving the immediate crisis.

But before he could act, Lu Ping had already anticipated it.

The Xuanyuan Sword Form was deployed early, locking the surrounding void, creating a solid Void Cage.

"Ah——"

A scream rang out, and when everyone looked over, they saw the Earth Fire Rock Lion’s defenses being slashed open by the Thousand-Star Demon-Slaying Sword and the demon itself, along with its treasure, being cut in half.

A Demon Pill flew out, heading in the direction of the Purple Jade Celestial Python, revealing the form of its Nascent Soul.

"Damn it, who is this person, and why is he so formidable?"

Seeing the Earth Fire Rock Lion’s body being slashed open, with even the Nascent Soul revealed, the Purple Jade Celestial Python’s eyes showed a look of horror.

At this moment, he could no longer care for assisting the Earth Fire Rock Lion because his own situation wasn’t much better.

That Thousand Spirits Immortal Slaying Sword came straightforwardly but held a power that caused the heart to palpitate.

The Purple Jade Celestial Python also sensed that the surrounding space was locked, with no hope of escape, and could only move within this limited space.

This time, he did not wield the defensive treasure to resist but unfolded his body, flying from the war chariot to quickly evade the Thousand Spirits Immortal Slaying Sword’s attack.

This also made him completely ignore the Earth Fire Rock Lion, and at that moment, when he avoided the Thousand Spirits Immortal Slaying Sword’s empty slash.

The Earth Fire Rock Lion became completely exposed to Lu Ping’s sight.

Lu Ping temporarily ignored the Purple Jade Celestial Python, wielding the Thousand Spirits Immortal Slaying Sword, directly slashing towards the Earth Fire Rock Lion.

The other party hastily fled, using Nascent Soul Demon Power, with the Nascent Soul turning into a beam of light, rapidly dodging in the surroundings to evade the attacks.

However, this behavior, in Lu Ping’s eyes, was nothing but a futile gesture.

The Thousand-Star Demon-Slaying Sword seized the opportunity, slashed apart, splitting into nine, slashing out nine radiant sword beams, enveloping the Nascent Soul of the Earth Fire Rock Lion.

With a ripping sound, this Nascent Soul was torn apart by the sword qi, slashed, and its life force quickly dissipated.

After killing a Nascent Soul Demon Emperor, Lu Ping’s gaze turned to the Purple Jade Celestial Python.

"Good, good, good!"

Seeing Lu Ping slaying the Earth Fire Rock Lion, Taiqi Peak couldn’t help but clap and cheer, with a look of excitement on his face.

The surrounding cultivators from Heaven-Facing Sect, Cyan Mountain Sect, and Nine Cold Mountain all looked equally elated.

With two Nascent Soul Demon Emperors, one was quickly slain; how could the remaining Purple Jade Celestial Python be a match for Elder Lu?

Clearly, it couldn’t be.

This answer quickly surfaced in the minds of everyone present.

Liu Taixuan and Xu Dezhi exchanged glances upon seeing the Earth Fire Rock Lion being slain, smiles appearing on their faces.

This Southern Wilderness Demon Race blatantly tore up the treaty without restraint, so there was no reason to hold back against them.

The Earth Fire Rock Lion naturally had to be slain.

As for the Purple Jade Celestial Python, given Lu Ping’s strength, there is no need for them to assist in slaying it easily, right?
