Chapter 3971 We're Saved

Liu Hao is incredibly lucky. I had been scheming and deliberately feigning weakness, thinking I could kill him with one blow. But at the crucial moment, he still avoided vital areas. My Tianzhao Spear only pierced his abdomen, not his heart. To make matters worse, Hu Jiuqing suddenly appeared and saved Liu Hao's life.

At this moment, I used the power of the Black Demon God to fight against Hu Jiuqing, but I was completely outmatched.

Even if I use the energy of the Black Demon God, it will take time for the power of the Black Demon God to permeate my entire body. As the demonic energy attached to me by the Black Demon God becomes more and more intense, my strength will also continue to rise. The strongest state is when the Black Demon God controls my entire body. If the Black Demon God descends, I think I can fight even Bai Mile, let alone Hu Jiuqing.

But that won't work right now. I'm only using the power of the Black Demon God to dodge Hu Jiuqing's attacks and survive. If I don't use the Black Demon God's power, I won't even have a chance to dodge; Hu Jiuqing will kill me on the spot.

When Hu Jiuqing blasted me away with his sword to the square outside the main hall, I realized that the people from the Maoshan Sect's Punishment Hall had arrived, including Master Longtian.

The ascetics of the Great Punishment Hall were fighting the sword slaves. Elder Qinglong and Elder Baihu also joined the battle, fighting to the death with the teachers of the Taoist Academy.

Seeing this, I felt a little apprehensive.

The force at this pass is far from enough; it's only the people from the Maoshan Sect's Great Punishment Hall who are mobilized. It's likely that Master Longtian has already notified Ge Yu and the others, but they haven't arrived yet.

I also saw the slovenly Taoist priest and Little Fatty, who were fighting with the people from the First Pass.

However, the situation was extremely tragic, so tragic that it was unbearable to witness. Especially when Elder Qinglong and Elder Baihu attacked at the same time, the people from the Taoist Academy were no match for them. The most powerful ones were those in white Zhongshan suits, who were barely at the Earth Immortal realm. However, Elder Baihu and Elder Qinglong were both at or above the mid-stage of the Earth Immortal realm. At this moment, many teachers from the Taoist Academy had already lost their lives at the hands of the two of them.

Although the female Taoist priests of Qianyuan Temple were numerous, they were not enough to kill all the sword slaves.

I had just glanced around when Hu Jiuqing appeared beside me again, unleashing another sword strike.

I could only hold the Heavenly Spear horizontally in front of me again. This time, the heavy blow almost dissipated the demonic energy on my body, and I rolled to the ground again.

Hu Jiuqing, carrying his magic sword, approached me step by step, saying calmly, "You little thief, you've ruined our Yiguandao's plans time and time again. This time, I must kill you." In the blink of an eye, Hu Jiuqing was close to me again. Before I could even get up from the ground, the magic sword in his hand was thrust directly into my heart. I instinctively used the Tianzhao Spear to block, but I couldn't stop it, and the magic sword pierced my heart.

Fortunately, I was wearing a golden armor with talismans on me. This outfit has saved me countless times.

Although it didn't pierce my body, the explosive energy contained in Hu Jiuqing's magic sword caused my blood and qi to surge, and my body flew backward again. As soon as I landed, I spat out a mouthful of blood.

Using the Black Demon God's energy this time, I had absolutely no chance to resist, except to save my life.

Hu Jiuqing seemed to have noticed that the demonic energy on my body would grow stronger over time. After several heavy blows, he almost shattered the demonic energy on my body. After landing this time, I felt pain in every bone in my body, as if they were about to fall apart.

Hu Jiuqing swung his sword again, aiming straight for my neck.

I thought to myself, "I'm doomed... I can't possibly dodge such a vicious sword strike."

Just as that sword was about to take my head, suddenly, a golden light came flying through the air, heading straight for Hu Jiuqing in front of me.

The golden light turned out to be a golden talisman, which struck Hu Jiuqing's magic sword. The powerful force it unleashed neutralized Hu Jiuqing's fierce sword move and forced him to retreat a distance.

Before I knew what was happening, a gust of wind swept past me, and a figure landed beside me.

When I looked back, I felt that the person looked very familiar. He had appeared when we dealt with the two vice leaders of the Black Demon Sect. He was none other than Xuanxu Zhenren, one of the three masters of talismans.

This old Taoist priest had an otherworldly air about him, with white beard and hair, looking like a celestial being from heaven.

That talisman I just received was from him; it saved my life at a crucial moment.

Although it is a golden talisman, it was created by the Mysterious Void Immortal, making it many times more powerful than the golden talismans we carry.

Then, a roar like a dragon's cry came from behind. When I turned around again, I saw Ge Yu and Chen Yuan Zhenren riding the Maoshan Mountain-Suppressing Divine Beast, the Golden Qilin, heading towards us.

At this time, most of the people from the Taoist Academy and Qian Yuan Palace had died or been injured. When they saw the leader of the Maoshan Sect and Xuanxu Zhenren and others appear, they were immediately excited, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

"The leader of the Maoshan Sect is here! We're saved!" someone shouted.

When Hu Jiuqing saw that all the top experts of the Maoshan Sect had come out, his expression remained unusually calm, and a smile even appeared on his lips.

I didn't understand why Hu Jiuqing was laughing. Could it be that the arrival of the Maoshan Sect was all within his expectations? "The Maoshan Sect Leader is here! All you bandits of Yiguandao, surrender immediately, or you will all be executed!" Master Longtian shouted as he saw the Sect Leader approaching. At this shout, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked towards Ge Yu.

Holding the Maoshan Nine-Star Sword, Ge Yu stood atop the golden Qilin, his gaze sweeping around. The small square before him was littered with corpses; the Taoist Academy had suffered heavy losses. This sight made Ge Yu's face extremely grim. After surveying the area, Ge Yu looked again at Hu Jiuqing: "Hu Jiuqing, the Right Protector of the Yiguandao?"

"Indeed, you are the leader of the Maoshan Sect. You look quite young, but it's a pity that the heavens are jealous of talent and your life is short." Hu Jiuqing smiled smugly.

"Hu Jiuqing, you're about to die, yet you still dare to spout such nonsense!" Master Longtian roared in fury, pointing his magic sword at Hu Jiuqing.

"Who knows who's going to die soon? Why do you think we, the Guandao, would make a move right under your Maoshan Sect's nose? The purpose is obvious: to lure out the main force of your Maoshan Sect. I didn't expect you to be so stupid as to all come. Hahaha..." Hu Jiuqing laughed triumphantly.
