Chapter 13360 Kill the Holy Sword Knight
Hun Wuxu looked at the soul-calming mirror handed to him by the third high priest, with indescribable joy in his heart.

This Soul-Suppressing Mirror was the treasure he had always dreamed of! With it, not only could he make up for the gap between him and the Heavenly Soul Saint in terms of treasures, but it could also allow his strength to make a qualitative leap, allowing him to have a higher status and voice in the Demon-Suppressing Mansion.

He carefully took the Soul-Calming Mirror and looked closely at the mysterious patterns on the mirror, as if he could feel the tremendous power contained in it. This power would be the foundation for his future in the Holy Temple and would also help him pursue a higher realm.

The Heavenly Soul Saintess standing beside him still had a cold expression on her face. She looked at Hun Wuxu's excitement and couldn't help but sneer in her heart.

She knew the methods of the Holy Hall very well. They bought people's hearts and won over the strong. These were their usual tricks. She sighed helplessly and turned her eyes to Ling Xiao who was fighting fiercely with seven Holy Sword Knights.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was in a desperate situation. Facing the siege of seven holy sword knights, he dodged left and right in the flash of swords and shadows, and every swing of the sword seemed to use up all his strength. His eyes flashed with an unyielding light, but the pain and helplessness were only felt by him.

The Heavenly Soul Saint felt mixed emotions. She wanted to help, but reality made her powerless. She knew very well that with her own strength, she could not fight against so many Holy Sword Knights at the same time, let alone rescue Ling Xiao from them.

She could only pray silently, hoping that Ling Xiao could get through this with his own strength.

Ling Xiao also felt the complicated gaze of the Heavenly Soul Saintess, but he had no time to respond. He knew very well that at this moment, he had no way out.

Facing the siege of seven holy sword knights, he could only grit his teeth and fight with all his might. His heart was filled with the desire for victory, the persistence for survival, and the infinite vision for the future.

He quickly glanced at the battlefield, his eyes fell on the five temple priests killed by Long Yingtian. The five cold bodies lay quietly in a pool of blood, as if telling of the cruelty of the battle.

An indescribable impulse surged in his heart, a desire for power and a determination for victory. Without a moment's hesitation, he rushed forward, like a hungry beast, devouring all the blood and energy of the five priests.

At that moment, he seemed to feel waves of warm energy surging in his body, like a rushing river, endlessly.

His cultivation at this moment was like a ignited flame, soaring rapidly, and he directly broke through to the seventh level of the Primordial Realm. It was an indescribable joy and satisfaction, as if the whole world was trembling under his feet.

As his cultivation level increased, his combat power naturally soared several times, and a frightening aura emanated from his body. He could clearly feel that his current strength was far superior to before, and he could fight even against a low-level Condensation Realm expert.

Logically speaking, when he reaches the peak of Hunyuan Realm, he should be able to easily kill those powerful people in the low-level Ningzhen Realm.

But at this moment, he was already strong enough at the seventh level of the Primordial Realm, not to mention that he was holding the extremely powerful Demon Lord Black Sky Sword in his hand, and was wearing the Tianluo Demon Tool with amazing defensive power. These two treasures undoubtedly gave him some confidence.

However, even so, he knew very well that he might have a chance of winning against one Holy Sword Knight, but if he faced seven at the same time, it would be like hitting a rock with an egg, and he would be courting death. A trace of solemnity and helplessness flashed in his eyes. He knew that he could not fight head-on, but had to outsmart them.

So, he pretended to be afraid, turned around and ran, like a black lightning, instantly disappearing from the battlefield. His figure shuttled through the woods, each step was light and swift, as if he had merged with nature.

The seven Holy Sword Knights would naturally not give Ling Xiao any chance to escape. They chased him like hounds, their eyes flashing with the desire for victory and the expectation of promotion and salary increase. In their eyes, Ling Xiao had become the chess piece that could help them take a crucial step in their careers.

There were always some who were fast and some who were slow in the procession. In this dense forest, Ling Xiao's figure was like a nimble deer, constantly shuttling between the shadows of the trees, trying to get rid of the pursuers.

However, the Holy Sword Knights are elites who have experienced many battles. Their speed and endurance far exceed those of ordinary people, making Ling Xiao's escape increasingly difficult.

Finally, one of the Holy Sword Knights, with his excellent speed and keen intuition, got behind Ling Xiao first. He raised the huge sword in his hand, which was shining brightly, and slashed at Ling Xiao fiercely like a god of war who was about to win the victory.

"Crack!" A crisp sound broke the tranquility of the forest. The holy sword brought with it unparalleled power, as if it was going to split everything in its way in half. However, when the holy sword fell, Ling Xiao's body was split into two like a phantom, turning into two afterimages that dissipated into the air.

This scene made the Holy Sword Knight instantly feel something was wrong. He knew Ling Xiao's strength very well. Although he was not as strong as their Holy Sword Knights, he was still able to suppress Hun Wuxu.

Although Hun Wuxu is not as good as their Holy Sword Knights, he is also considered a top figure in the Demon Suppression Mansion. How could Ling Xiao be killed by him with just one sword?

Just as he was doubtful, a black long sword stabbed at him from the side like a ghost. The sword emitted a faint black light, as if it could devour all light and vitality.

The Holy Sword Knight didn't notice the attack coming at all. By the time he reacted, the black sword had already pierced his body. Blood gushed out like a fountain, staining his clothes red.

At this moment, his eyes were filled with shock and unwillingness. He could never have imagined that he would fall into the hands of someone who seemed to have been killed by him.

"No——" He cried out in despair, his voice filled with endless fear and unwillingness. He realized that the fire of his life was about to go out, and the energy in his body was being rapidly sucked away by a mysterious and powerful force, like being swallowed by an invisible black hole. In an instant, his consciousness fell into endless darkness.

Using the unique skill of the Sky Demon Shadow Clone, Ling Xiao successfully sneak attacked and killed a Holy Sword Knight at a critical moment. However, the joy of victory did not stay on his face for too long. His brows were furrowed and his eyes were full of worry.

He knew that although this sneak attack was successful, it was only a temporary respite and the real challenge was still to come.

Sure enough, the remaining six Holy Sword Knights quickly came to their senses after a brief moment of stunned silence.
