Legend of the Great Sage

.
His demonic armour became even more resplendent.

There was not a single part of Li Qingshan that feared demon qi.
The ox demon and tiger demon were demons in the first place, while there was even less reason for the phoenix and spirit turtle to fear mere demon qi.
The Demon Suppression Statuary downright used demon qi as its source of power.
As a result, the greatest obstruction and hindrance to regular cultivators instead assisted him.

Li Qingshan lowered his head and took a look.
Tiger’s Fang devoured the essence blood of the twelve Demon Commanders and glowed at full capacity once more.
With a flick of his wrist, the edge rose up to the sky.
A streak of light surged up into the air, extending straight towards the Thousand Tendrils King mid-air!

“You’re also a demon, so why do you serve as a lackey of the humans and oppose us demons?” The Thousand Tendrils King suddenly realised he had severely underestimated Li Qingshan’s strength.
He did not have to undergo the third heavenly tribulation.
He was already a Demon King right now.
He had to sacrifice another dozen tendrils before he managed to block the strike.

“Damned lug, don’t put me on the same level as you!”

Tiger’s Fang in Li Qingshan’s hand used this opportunity to recover its glow, becoming even more eager and crazed for blood.
It was not as precious as the Sea-splitting sword.
It did not care at all if it drank the foul blood of demonfolk.
It was fine as long as it was blood.
It was not picky at all.

“Nice blade!” Li Qingshan praised.
Although he had used Tiger’s Fang plenty of times in the past, he was often done with just a few swings, so it was not particularly useful, and it consumed his blood too.
Only now did it truly unleash its wonders.
Enemies of tremendous size with powerful regeneration were basically the perfect targets for him to try his blade on.

The shrill sound of wind rang out by his ears.
The tendrils danced furiously and lashed towards Li Qingshan like long whips.

Li Qingshan let out a great laugh.
He corrected his footing and stood right there.

A hundred strands of blade aura erupted at the same time, like the bloom of a hundred flowers.
When the tendrils fell among them, they seemed to enter a meat grinder, torn apart to pieces.
Demon blood fell down, but it was drained clean before it could even reach the ground.

Whenever a blade aura cut through a tendril, it drank the demon blood at the same time, allowing him to recover immediately and swing his blade even faster than usual, which seemed like he had unleashed a hundred swings at the same time.
Moreover, the might behind each swing was even greater than Ye Duanhai’s sword qi, preventing the Thousand Tendrils King from getting anywhere close despite his number of tendrils.

“Haha, I really am suited to using the blade!”

The traces of the path of the sword that still lingered in Li Qingshan’s blade style were gradually vanishing for good.
He swung his blade as he pleased, and he moved according to his will, fighting to his heart’s content.

Ye Duanhai recovered his strength as he sighed in amazement inside, This kid already seems extremely powerful.
It is even clearer in battle! Suddenly, he noticed something and said in warning, “Be careful!”

The Thousand Tendrils King that had remained still in the air the entire time suddenly erupted with speed that was completely disproportionate to his size, hurling towards Li Qingshan’s head.
A single, large eye opened up on the ball of flesh, completely bloodshot and covered in strange demonic glyphs.
It stared at Li Qingshan and emitted a powerful mental pulse.

Li Qingshan halted, and the tendrils all swarmed in, swallowing him completely.
In that moment, rocks were sent flying, and the entire mountain shook!

He’s too careless! As a Demon King, how can he be dealt with so easily? Ye Duanhai had once suffered before that move too, which was why he constantly remained vigilant and refused to expend his full strength.
He drew his sword and stood up, about to assist Li Qingshan when a metallic resonance suddenly rang out from the mass of tendrils.
“Nice ball.”

Li Qingshan’s figure swelled up, turning into a daemon the size of a mountain.
He broke free from the tendrils and spread his pitch-black arms, grabbing the huge ball of falling flesh firmly and resting it against his shoulders.

Boom! Li Qingshan’ legs sank into the earth.
The barren mountain seemed to become a tiny mound of earth, immediately collapsing in the process.
Li Qingshan’s waist bent over as his bones produced the sound of twisting metal.

However, he had the Strength of the Earth.
The strength rose up from the ground in an endless fashion.
He forcefully caught the Thousand Tendrils King.

After being severed, the Thousand Tendrils King’s tendrils would always regrow very quickly.
They entwined around Li Qingshan, layer upon layer, wreaking havoc.
They pierced his skin sharply and injected him with the poison of the Demon domain.

From the corner of his eye, Ye Duanhai suddenly discovered a beautiful woman dressed in plain and neat clothes.
She had appeared above the Thousand Tendrils King before he knew it.
Even he had almost failed to sense her.
That was no longer just concealing aura.
That was having no aura at all, just like a piece of dead wood.

Pale-white flames burned in the depths of Xiao An’s bright eyes.
She gripped a shiny bone sword in her hand.

That sword! Through his sharp senses for the path of the sword, Ye Duanhai immediately sensed the irregularities with the sword in Xiao An’s hand.
It did not give off a particularly sharp aura, but it made him feel horror for some reason; he felt like he definitely could not allow that sword to harm him!

Xiao An swung the sword casually.
There was not the faintest aura of violence, as if she was simply doing calligraphy.
During the past decade, she had not just followed the Divine Nun of the South Sea to study the buddhist dharma.
She had also completely comprehended and mastered the path of the sword within the Cursive Sword Calligraphy, even leaving a great sword cultivator like Ye Duanhai amazed.

The Buddha Slaying sword plunged into the Thousand Tendrils King’s body.
Compared to his colossal size, it was only equivalent to a needle, while the wound was basically no different from the eye of a needle.

“Argh!” The Thousand Tendrils King howled out.
With his regenerative powers, even if he took on a slash from Ye Duanhai or Li Qingshan, it would not harm him for good, much less make him behave like this.

However, after receiving a gentle thrust from Xiao An, he was like a balloon with a hole in him.
He rapidly deflated.
Demon blood combined with demon qi sprayed out from the tiny “eye of the needle”.

“Bitch, what did you do!?”
