Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Portrait (Please Vote and Follow)
Langdang Mountain.
Direction of Yunlu County.
Refugees fleeing from Yunlu County are becoming more numerous.
The appearance of so many Blood Food has stirred the Mountain Spirits and Wild Demons, which were originally dormant in the mountain forests, to restless eagerness.
After Chen Yuan ordered a patrol of the mountain, the Banshan Tiger Talisman within his Mud Ball trembled incessantly.
He dashed across the vast mountains and rivers, killing more and more, while his heart grew increasingly alarmed.
There were still many unknown Spirit Monsters hidden in Langdang Mountain.
Like icebergs beneath the surface of the water,
he was vigilant in his heart,
daring not to be careless.
He urgently strove to enhance his own strength.
With each Zhout Tian Circulation, with every Spirit Monster he slayed, he immediately fortified his own Luck.
As he fought across all directions, the Elixir Field Furnace within his body roared ceaselessly, with the yang rising and yin descending, constantly knocking at the fortress within his throat, the Twelve Story Building.
Just like that,
as he traveled and fought in all directions,
the momentum within his body continued to climb.
One-story building.
Three Leveled Building,
Seven-story Building,
Ten-story Building.
.......
As time passed, the sky gradually darkened, and the sun completely set behind Langdang Mountain.
At this moment, there were several boats on the great river.
Sailing quietly on the surface of the river.
"Boom"
In the sky, a bolt of Thunder tore through the firmament.
Soon after, heavy rain poured down.
Blurring heaven and earth.
Illuminated by the thunder, the bows and sterns of these River Boats were filled with people.
The lightning flashed across each face,
numb, frightened, empty, cautious...
The myriad faces of living beings were plentiful but not the same.
At this moment, onboard the several River Boats, there were some people dressed in sturdy clothing, holding swords and knives, remaining alert to the dark river surface.
On the blades, there were still traces of blood.
These people had a Martial Arts Qi Mechanism in their bodies, all tense as if ready to act at any moment.
Indeed, they came from Yunlu County, having gone through a ferocious slaughter.
Outsiders cannot fathom the current horrifying situation in Yunlu County.
In one night, the county town seemed to be cursed, turning into a Demon Cave.
Some people, as if mad, tore and chewed the flesh of others raw, swallowed it down, and then transformed into things neither human nor ghost.
Then, they frenziedly slaughtered.
What was even more chilling was that they learned the truth, that the County Magistrate of Yunlu County had also transformed into a Demon.
He ordered the city to be sealed, wishing to sacrifice the entire county!
In one night, screams were incessant.
The citizens thus fled in panic.
And these people, who were from the Martial Arts Hall and had Cultivation within them, barely managed to fight their way out of this horror.
Protecting a part of the citizens, they escaped from that Demon Cave.
But now, a Demon had set its sights on them, having chased them out from the county town.
Suddenly,
on the rain-swept river where the waves surged tumultuously,
the leader on one boat, a man with wide nostrils and wielding a Ring-Headed Great Saber, with eyes blazing furiously,
suddenly lifted his blade.
He brought it down towards the churning waves on the river,
A white streak from the blade, suddenly turning into a fine line, slashed towards the vortex.
At the same time, he bellowed a command.
"Be alert!"
Before the others could react.
Ahead on the river surface,
"Bang"
The water exploded, sending spray in every direction.
A Demon with a giant-like stature, crimson eyes, and under its green skin, black patterns roamed, emerged.
The black patterns under the skin of the Demon, like black little snakes, seemed to be wriggling out.
"Pff"
Beneath the ruptured skin, crimson blood spurted out.
Following that, small black scales started to seep out from within.
With this eerie scene unfolding, the aura erupting from the Demon grew more and more terrifying.
Heading towards Qi Refining Great Success.
Seemingly undergoing some sort of supernatural transformation.
On this fierce and malevolent demon, there also hung a stretched and torn uniform of governmental officials.
The tigereyed middle-aged man looked very grim upon witnessing the appearance of the demon.
Others gathered around, gripping their swords and blades even tighter, visibly tense.
"Master"
"Teacher"
"What do we do?"
The tigereyed middle-aged man could only speak in a deep voice.
"Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, take the others to shore and scatter to escape!
The rest of you, come with me to hold off this demon head. This guy seems to be breaking through; he's getting stronger. If we don't kill him now, there's only death awaiting us!"
The tigereyed middle-aged man said with an ugly expression.
As his voice fell,
he suddenly leapt forward, transforming into a cannonball, sword in hand, and charged towards the demon.
The other disciples, upon seeing this, all raised their swords and charged into the fray.
But that demon, which still had apparent Human Clan characteristics, simply watched them approach with a cold and gloomy glint in its eyes, sneering fiercely.
Then its figure moved.
Turning into a blur.
The next second.
A fist pierced through the chest of a disciple in the Bone Tempering Realm.
Then it was withdrawn.
A fresh red heart still throbbing.
It was squeezed, and the heart exploded violently.
The disciple's corpse fell, revealing the demon grinning sinisterly behind him.
"Mo Yun"
The tigereyed middle-aged man saw his disciple killed before his eyes and let out a furious roar, slashing furiously towards the demon.
"Ding!"
The demon remained unfazed, using its fist to block.
A layer of fine scales caused the Sword Qi to disperse abruptly.
Suddenly, the demon closed the distance and fiercely seized the tigereyed middle-aged man's other arm.
Then, brutally tore it off.
The tigereyed middle-aged man let out a miserable cry.
At the critical moment, he channeled surging True Qi and gritted his teeth to strike horizontally with his blade at the demon's skull.
But the demon only sneeringly evaded, blurring his figure.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared a few meters away.
Then, it raised its slaughter blade towards those panic-stricken disciples.
Screams of terror rose.
And their teacher, the tigereyed middle-aged man, had eyes filled with fury.
He attempted to intervene.
His severed arm's wound was pulled, causing his body to stagger.

He hurriedly stopped the bleeding, and at that moment,
a scroll paper fell from the tattered uniform.
The middle-aged man had no time to care for these things, shouting loudly as he sought revenge for his disciples.
By now, the martial arts students had suffered heavy casualties.
None were a match for the demon.
At this moment, the demon bit off a disciple's neck, chewing on the flesh around its mouth, then stared with increasingly crimson pupils, brutally mocking this group of lambs to be slaughtered.
"You will all be unable to escape today!"
With these words, it transformed into a demonic shadow, ready to completely finish off the Martial Arts Hall Master.
Just then,
a white light, like the Nine Heavens Thunder.
Cut through the night sky, piercing the darkness of the river!
"Ding!"
In the blink of an eye,
everyone's vision blurred,
and then, the mast shuddered.
The demon was inexplicably pinned to the mast.
Everyone was shocked.
Then, they looked into the darkness as a dark cloaked boat approached swiftly through the waves.
They saw at the boat's bow, a figure in green clothes.
Then, that person's figure flashed, appearing atop the river boat.
He cast a slash towards the pinned demon.
The Sword Qi utterly shredded the demon's head into pieces.
Everyone stared dumbfounded at the figure in green clothes.
They inhaled a breath of cold air.
And then, as the wind blew, the paper that had fallen on the deck unfolded.
Revealing the portrait of a man.
"Where did this portrait come from?"
The person muttered in surprise.
