I Become a Martial Arts God in the Chaotic Demon World

Chapter 132 - 132: Darkness Under the Light

"Sir, we've already reached the thirty-five li mark, even gone beyond it a bit. Should we turn back?"

A constable in his early forties, dressed in official attire, clutched his waist saber, panting as he asked.

They had also run into bad luck as there hadn't been a moment's rest these past few days.

First, the Green Sun Sect and the Li Family were annihilated. Such a significant event had them rushing about, investigating overnight and reporting to the Demon Cleansing Bureau.

Then came the panics and fears, anxious that the Blood Wolf Thieves might break through the county town, so worried that they could scarcely sleep well for several days.

It was only with great relief when the Demon Cleansing Bureau finally arrived, but a member of the Blood Wolf Thieves still managed to escape, compelling them to assist in the

Han Zheng waved his hand at the constables, "All of you retreat, go find others from the Demon Cleansing Bureau to come here."

The constables scampered off in a panic.

Chou Jingxiao did not attempt to stop them.

These constables were slow, and it didn't matter if they went for help.

Since this place had already been discovered, he couldn't stay any longer; he had to kill Han Zheng and find another place to hide.

"You want to die? I will grant your wish! But I won't let you die so easily; first you have to cough up that Sword Skill before dying! By then, you might even be begging me to kill you."

Chou Jingxiao sneered cruelly.

He was still fixated on Han Zheng's Avici Path Asura Slash.

Back in the Julong Cave, if he had had such a Sword Skill, perhaps he could have fought to death against Wen Tingyun.

As his words fell, the intense killing intent around Chou Jingxiao converged into a crimson Sword Gang that slashed towards Han Zheng.

Killing intent cold and piercing to the bone, the Sword Gang spread for several yards, its might in no way diminished compared to before.

His previously held curved sword had been destroyed by Wen Tingyun, but facing Han Zheng, he planned to overpower with Gang Qi, so the absence of a weapon made little difference.

Han Zheng did not utilize Autumn Water Shocking Swallow, but instead, he spurred the Great Black Heaven Demon Technique, gathering a robust and surging Demonic Qi into a gang around him.

With Dragon Elephant Prison Suppressing Power added to his body and his hands forming the Vajra Ming King Seal, he struck forcefully, countering that ultimate killing strike.

Following the explosion of Gang Qi, the Sword Gang True Qi scattered into all directions, and Han Zheng was flung back several steps by the strike before coming to a halt, his Demonic Qi having been completely torn apart.

But a smile emerged on Han Zheng's face.

"Chou Jingxiao, it seems you're extremely weakened, that Blood Demon Escape Shadow Technique must have drained all the Qi and blood in your body.

Now you are just a shell, powerful on the outside, frail within, not even capable of Gang Qi Transformation anymore, and I suspect even your flesh has been inflated with True Qi, hasn't it?"

Back in Julong Cave, a casual slice from Chou Jingxiao could achieve this level of lethality.

But just now, although Chou Jingxiao seemed to be slashing casually, Han Zheng could tell that he had almost exerted his full strength, and even so, he wasn't able to produce a strike like before, one that could morph Gang Qi into the fierce Blood Slaughter Sky Wolf.

Now, Chou Jingxiao, without any Qi and blood in his body, was like a skin-covered skeleton.

His body was a sham, merely inflated with True Qi to maintain the skin, keeping him looking somewhat normal and not like a bare skeletal frame.
