Chapter 360: Mysterious Demon Path Expert

Xiao Yang initially intended to eliminate all the Half Saints who dared to intrude.

However, that sly guy Gui Tian managed to pull a fast one and escape right away.

He wanted to chase after him.

But just then, Zhao Fan had his breakthrough.

Though the cave was protected by the Ice-Bound Profound Flood Dragon, he felt it was better to personally guard Zhao Fan to avoid any unforeseen accidents.

After all, the word had already spread that Xiao Yang had self-destructed his dantian and become a useless person.

No one would believe Gui Tian if he said otherwise.

Qin Fei knew Xiao Yang was playing the role of a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Yet, despite Qin Fei’s efforts to expose him, no one believed that Xiao Yang was a Half Saint, let alone a master capable of rubbing him into the ground.

“Hmm?”

When Xiao Yang returned to the cave, he saw Zhao Fan seated there, enveloped in a layer of colorful aura.

A powerful presence washed over him.

Zhao Fan’s internal energy surged like an ocean.

The aura around him was like a five-colored divine flame dancing.

“This…”

Xiao Yang felt the changes in Zhao Fan, and even he couldn’t help but be moved.

The Five Elements Body truly is impressive.

At this moment, Zhao Fan was still in the Qi Refining Realm.

However, his martial body was likely even stronger than a Half Saint.

And his martial energy could rival that of a Half Saint as well.

To have such a powerful martial body and martial energy at the Qi Refining Realm was absolutely against the heavens.

Zhao Fan had successfully washed his marrow and renewed his blood.

The next step was a complete transformation.

Zhao Fan, seated on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze shimmering with five-colored spiritual light.

“Is this the washing of marrow and blood?”

As Zhao Fan sensed the newfound power within him, he felt an extraordinary sense of rebirth.

This feeling was quite extraordinary.

“It’s done!”

Xiao Yang approached.

“Respectfully Greeting Master!”

Zhao Fan hastily stood up and bowed to Xiao Yang.

“Mm, now you’re qualified to be my disciple.”

Xiao Yang nodded at Zhao Fan.

“Master, you’re taking me as a direct disciple? I’m no longer just a registered disciple?”

Zhao Fan was astonished and overjoyed upon hearing this.

“Mm, from today onwards, you are my direct disciple, Xiao Yang.”

Xiao Yang said casually.

…

At the same time, countless black-clothed figures appeared in Yuanlong City.

These black-clothed people directly attacked Ling Xian’er and Long Chen.

They aimed to kill Ling Xian’er and Long Chen, as well as the Xiao Zhenshan family.

“Surrender or suffer, and we will make you wish for death while begging for it,” the leading black-clothed man sneered at Ling Xian’er and Long Chen.

“Demon Sect…”

Long Chen glared at the leading black-clothed man, coldly stating.

“Just leftover remnants from the Demon Sect?”

Ling Xian’er replied coldly.

“What’s the Demon Sect to me?” The black-clothed man scoffed.

“Not from the Demon Sect?” Long Chen exclaimed in surprise.

These guys were indeed thick with Demon Qi, all masters of the Demon Path, especially the leader, who was particularly formidable.

Even Long Chen wondered if he could beat this guy.

In the entire Northern Region, who else but the Demon Sect could have this level of power?

“You don’t need to know so much before you die,” the leading black-clothed man said, waving his hand, signaling his followers to attack Ling Xian’er and Long Chen.

Demon lights pierced towards them like demonic arrows.

“Hmph!”

Long Chen stepped forward.

“Buzz!”

The void trembled, and a massive golden barrier appeared, enveloping them directly.

Countless demon lights clashed against the golden shield, causing explosions all around.

“Gold Shield Defense, Golden Sacred Body?” The leading black-clothed man’s eyes lit up.

In the next moment, he took a step and threw a punch at the golden barrier.

“Boom!”

A dull sound echoed, and cracks began to spiderweb across the barrier under his fist.

These cracks rapidly spread from his fist and soon covered the entire golden shield.

Then, the barrier that protected Long Chen and the others shattered into countless golden spiritual lights, dissipating into the void.

Long Chen staggered, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, as he retreated three steps, leaving deep footprints behind.

The black-clothed man had shattered Long Chen’s golden barrier with a single punch, injuring him in the process.

Ling Xian’er gasped upon witnessing this.

Because she was very clear about Long Chen’s strength.

“Who are you?”

Long Chen fixed his gaze on the black-clothed man.

“The one who’s going to kill you!”

The black-clothed man replied with a sly grin.

“What…”

The Xiao Zhenshan family was already terrified.

If it weren’t for Ling Xian’er and Long Chen protecting them, they would have long been killed by these black-clothed individuals.

“Get lost!”

Ling Xian’er roared, thrusting her palm at the leading black-clothed man.

A violent force of Taiyin surged from her palm, freezing everything in its path.

The leading black-clothed man instantly launched into the air to evade the incoming Taiyin palm attack.

However, his subordinates behind him were not so lucky.

Those who couldn’t dodge were instantly frozen by the Taiyin palm power.

“Hmm? Taiyin Sacred Body?”

The leading black-clothed man hovered mid-air, looking down at Ling Xian’er.

Frost developed on his shoes, and a chilling aura surged up from his feet.

The black-clothed man quickly circulated his demonic arts to dispel the chilly intrusion.

Soon, the frost on his shoes vanished.

“Haha, what a stroke of luck, I shall capture you and turn you into my demon slave, my furnace.”

The leader of the black-clothed men leered at Ling Xian’er.

“You…”

Ling Xian’er was filled with both shock and anger upon hearing this.

With a flick of her finger, a streak of icy sword light shot forth from her, aiming directly at the black-clothed man in mid-air.

Chilling sword energy surged forth, rapidly dropping the temperature around them.

It even began to snow from the sky.

“A sword cultivator?” The black-clothed man exclaimed in surprise.

With a casual wave, he swept away the incoming icy flying sword.

The Xiao Zhenshan family had already been crippled by Liu Ruxian and could not defend themselves, trembling in the cold.

“Little girl, except for you, everyone else here needs to die.”

The black-clothed man reached out a massive hand toward the others below.

Long Chen gasped and desperately activated his golden light to block the descending hand.

However, the black-clothed man’s power far exceeded Long Chen’s expectations.

Ling Xian’er also exerted her full strength in response.

Yet, even with their combined efforts, they still weren’t a match for him.

Their flying swords were sent flying away.

As the massive hand descended, it seemed Long Chen and the Xiao Zhenshan family were about to be taken out by the black-clothed man.

The Xiao Zhenshan family felt hopeless.

Even though Zhao Fan had rescued them from Liu Ruxian, they were still facing death.

Just then, a sound broke through the air.

Two streaks of cold light shot towards the distant black-clothed man in the sky, arriving in an instant.

“Hmm?”

The black-clothed man withdrew his hand, quickly pinching the two approaching cold lights between his fingers.

They turned out to be two metal marbles.

“What is this…”

The black-clothed man frowned.

“Marbles?”

He never expected someone would try to ambush him with marbles.

At this moment, a figure appeared on the opposite street.

The person walked over step by step.

“It’s Zhao Fan…”

Long Chen was momentarily stunned upon seeing him.

Zhao Fan had returned.

Long Chen’s heart soared with joy.

Xiao Yang was definitely nearby.

With Xiao Yang around, they didn’t need to fear these demon punks at all.

“This little guy…”

The black-clothed man narrowed his eyes, noticing Zhao Fan approaching, and his expression became serious.

This kid’s vital energy surged like a dragon, how could he, in the Qi Refining Realm, possess such strong vitality?

The black-clothed man waved his hand.

Two of his subordinates immediately charged at Zhao Fan.

“Hmph!”

Zhao Fan flicked his fingers; a marble shot straight towards one of the attacking black-clothed men.

That black-clothed man raised his sword to block the marble.

With a thunderous clash, sparks flew, and the blade was pierced through by the marble.

The marble shot straight through the sword and then through the black-clothed man’s body.

The black-clothed man was thrown back by the powerful impact, flying more than ten meters before crashing to the ground, unmoving.

“This…”

The other black-clothed man was immediately scared senseless.

However, he couldn’t escape and had to grit his teeth to continue attacking Zhao Fan.

Zhao Fan stepped forward, throwing a punch at the black-clothed man.

The black-clothed man raised his sword to counter.

Zhao Fan’s punch smashed through the demon blade held by the man, then hit him squarely.

The sound of cracking bones echoed.

The black-clothed man fell to the ground like a pile of mush, clearly no longer capable of fighting.

“You’re young, but you’ve got some skills!”

The black-clothed leader remarked coldly.

“Not bad, kid; you’re also qualified to be my demon slave.”

The black-clothed leader laughed.

“You want me to be your demon slave?” Zhao Fan coldly stared at the black-clothed leader hovering above.

“Becoming my demon slave is an honor for you,” the black-clothed leader boasted haughtily.

“Pfft, how about you become my servant? That too would be an honor for you,” Zhao Fan scoffed.

“Arrogant!”

The black-clothed leader’s eyes narrowed, and the next moment, he reached out towards Zhao Fan.

Zhao Fan sneered, throwing a punch at the black-clothed leader’s outstretched hand.

“Buzz!”

Zhao Fan’s punch shook the void, causing a tremor.

“Hmm?”

The black-clothed leader was startled as he saw the punch was powerful enough to disturb the void.

“Bang!”

Zhao Fan’s fist collided with the black-clothed leader’s hand.

The black-clothed leader felt a shock wave, his hand burst with pain, as if his bones were going to break.

He quickly retracted his hand.

Such power!

The black-clothed leader was stunned.

But this person was just an ant.

At most, he was a stronger ant.

With an evil grin, the black-clothed leader reached out for Zhao Fan again.

However, this time was different.

The massive black hand quickly engulfed Zhao Fan entirely.

Zhao Fan felt a sudden darkness, as if he had entered a pitch-black space.

He couldn’t help but be startled.
