Martial Arts Overlord-Chapter 607 - 605: Who Saved Whom?

SCHINK!

The treasured sword swept out, blue Sword Qi rippling forth in layers, instantly colliding with the demonic flames that filled the sky.

BOOM!

Amidst the deafening sound, a terrifying shockwave radiated in all directions, creating a crater over a hundred meters in diameter on the ground.

SWOOSH!

The blue treasured sword flashed and returned to Qing Yun’s hand.

"Sister Qing Yun."

Luo Feng saw the tall figure in mid-air and sighed in relief.

Qing Yun nodded slightly. Looking at the Sky Flying Demon opposite her, her tone held a hint of solemnity. "Luo Feng, fall back. This Sky Flying Demon is on the verge of transforming into an Asura; he’s not to be underestimated."

As she spoke, Qing Yun was inwardly shocked that Luo Feng had managed to hold out for so long against this Sky Flying Demon.

Hearing this, Luo Feng’s heart jolted. He had only been guessing earlier; he hadn’t expected this Sky Flying Demon to truly be so close to becoming an Asura.

Without hesitation, Luo Feng tapped his foot and shot backward. After retreating three to four kilometers, he took out a medicinal pill, swallowed it, and sat cross-legged to regulate his breathing and recover.

"Human woman, since you know my strength, why haven’t you fled? I only want to kill that brat. If you leave now, I can spare your life!"

The Sky Flying Demon’s icy eyes stared at Qing Yun as a powerful aura rose from him. He sensed that the human woman before him was no weaker than himself and felt a trace of apprehension, unwilling to engage.

Qing Yun stood calmly, her beautiful eyes watching the Sky Flying Demon, her red lips curving into a faint smile. "Apologies. I was entrusted by an old friend. I cannot let you kill him."

The Sky Flying Demon’s eyes bulged with rage, demonic flames over three meters high erupting from his body. He said coldly, "He killed over a dozen of my subordinates. He will undoubtedly die today!"

"In that case, there’s no need for more words."

Qing Yun’s gaze turned cold. An acute aura, no weaker than the Sky Flying Demon’s, emanated from the tip of her sword.

"KEKEKE... Seeing that you have some strength, I was considering sparing your life. Since you insist on protecting him today, then you can both stay behind!"

The Sky Flying Demon’s face turned ferocious as he let out a loud laugh. With a flap of his wings, a pitch-black hurricane suddenly appeared between heaven and earth.

The black hurricane howled and spiraled, growing larger with the wind. Initially only three meters in size, within moments, it transformed into a terrifying tornado dozens of meters tall, grinding everything within a hundred-meter radius to dust.

"The Hundred Kingdoms Domain is not a place for you Underground Demons to act as you please."

Gazing at the roaring Demonic Flame Tornado, Qing Yun’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. A stream of blue Qi Force suddenly descended from the void, connecting to her. She then unleashed three consecutive sword strikes.

SCHINK! SCHINK! SCHINK!

Three massive blue Sword Qi blasts shot out, directly severing the black tornado into three segments. It exploded with a boom, sending out terrifying ripples.

The Sky Flying Demon’s brow furrowed; the human woman’s strength was even greater than he had imagined.

"You’re courting death! Mad Demon Grotto-Heaven!"

His fanged steel trident traced a semi-circle in the air. Demonic Qi billowed from the Sky Flying Demon as he locked onto Qing Yun and thrust out.

The black demonic flames exploded violently, transforming into countless black demonic tridents, each as thick as an arm, swarming towards Qing Yun like locusts.

In an instant, half the sky turned completely dark, the overwhelming Demonic Qi obscuring the sun.

Qing Yun remained expressionless. The blue light she drew from the void suddenly expanded, shining brilliantly, and her entire aura surged, climbing steadily.

"Sky-spreading Million Swords."

With a wave of her treasured sword, the blue radiance behind Qing Yun transformed into countless flying swords that whistled through the air, splitting it with HISSING sounds.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The two violent torrents of energy collided, creating layers of explosive sounds. The entire sky was enveloped in shades of blue and black.

The clash between two fifth-level Spiritual Rotation Realm experts was an incredibly spectacular sight. The battle caused the hearts of nearby onlookers to pound with fear.

"It’s actually a fifth-level Spiritual Rotation Realm expert!"

"She must be using the Sky Sword Pavilion’s Blue Rainbow Heavenly Swordsmanship. It seems she’s a disciple of the Sky Sword Pavilion."

"A disciple of the Twelve Golden Palaces? No wonder she’s so strong! It looks like our Crack Stone City might be saved this time."

"Don’t celebrate too soon. Underground Demons have formidable physiques. At the same realm, they are generally stronger than us. The disparity isn’t obvious since they’ve only just begun fighting, but if this drags on, I’m afraid it won’t be good..."

The guards of the City Lord Mansion were somewhat surprised to see the newcomer actually holding her own against the Sky Flying Demon commander. Amidst their excitement, they also felt a tinge of worry.

Underground Demons possessed robust physiques; at the same cultivation realm, it usually took two or three ordinary Martial Artists to defeat one.

"Blue Rainbow Sword!"

Qing Yun’s sword slashed apart the pillar of demonic flame swung by the Sky Flying Demon. Her figure drifted back over a hundred meters, her Daimei slightly knitted, her pretty face flushed.

They had already exchanged dozens of blows. She had consumed thirty percent of her Yuan Qi, while the Sky Flying Demon showed no signs of weakening.

"Human woman, today is the day you die!"

Gaining the upper hand, the Sky Flying Demon’s eyes glinted with triumph. He let out a heaven-shaking roar, demonic flames flaring around him as he lunged at Qing Yun.

"That depends on whether you have the ability."

The blue light around Qing Yun grew denser, making her appear as if she were enveloped in a mass of translucent, azure jade. Her figure flashed, meeting the Sky Flying Demon head-on.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

For a moment, continuous loud booms filled the air. The distant guards couldn’t clearly see the two fighting; they could only discern a mass of blue light and a mass of black light constantly colliding in the sky, each shockwave stronger than the last.

WHOOSH...

Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Luo Feng opened his eyes. After a period of regulation, he had recovered seventy to eighty percent of his Yuan Qi, and his injuries were temporarily suppressed.

Sensing the violent Yuan Qi collisions in the sky, Luo Feng looked up, his brow gradually furrowing.

Others might not discern much, but with his powerful Soul Power, he could perceive many things ordinary people could not.

The two were at a stalemate. Qing Yun’s aura was gradually weakening, while the Sky Flying Demon’s was growing stronger. If not for Qing Yun’s sharp Swordsmanship, she would likely have been defeated already.

’If this continues, Sister Qing Yun will be in danger! I must find a way to create an opportunity for her!’

His eyes flickered. Luo Feng concealed his aura, dropped to the street, and skimmed along the ground, silently darting towards the area beneath the two combatants.

Everyone’s attention was currently focused on Qing Yun and the Sky Flying Demon commander; no one noticed a figure speeding through the streets at extreme velocity.

In the sky, the prolonged battle without a victor caused a trace of impatience to appear in the Sky Flying Demon’s eyes.

The human woman before him was clearly weaker, yet her incisive Swordsmanship prevented him from gaining any advantage, and he had even come close to being injured several times.

HUM!

A bloody glint flickered in his eyes. The Sky Flying Demon decided to end the battle quickly. The demonic flames on his body surged, flaring ten to thirteen meters high.

"Demonic Origin Collapsing Heavens!"

With a loud roar, a pitch-black Demon Avatar appeared behind the Sky Flying Demon.

The Demon Avatar was ten to thirteen meters tall, with wings, bared fangs, and a wide mouth. It was wreathed in terrifying black flames, its pupils, devoid of whites, fixed on Qing Yun. Fierce demonic flames burned on its fists as it prepared to strike.

’Now’s the chance!’

Seeing the Sky Flying Demon focusing all his attention on Qing Yun, Luo Feng knew this was an opportunity not to be missed. His figure shot upwards.

"Astonishing Thunder!"

Astonishing Thunder was a Martial Art he had created himself, its power no less than a high-grade Profound Level Martial Art. It was currently his strongest attack. Appearing behind the Sky Flying Demon, Luo Feng slashed out with his saber.

SCHWING!

The chilling saber light condensed into a single line, fiercely extending outward with lightning speed.

"Huh!"

The distant City Lord Mansion guards, seeing Luo Feng suddenly appear, were all jolted.

Even from such a distance, they could feel the terror of this saber strike. It was clearly just a flash of saber light, yet the intent realm within it surpassed that of the Demon Avatar conjured by the Sky Flying Demon—it was sharp to the extreme!

"Hmph!"

The Sky Flying Demon, truly an expert on the verge of transforming into an Asura, sensed the danger at the critical moment. Contempt flickered in his eyes as the Demon Avatar’s head swiveled around, and it punched towards Luo Feng.

RUMBLE!

A thunderous explosion rang out. Under the Demon Avatar’s punch, the surrounding space seemed on the verge of collapsing.

CRACK!

The saber light was shattered by the force of the punch, but to everyone’s surprise, one of the Demon Avatar’s arms was severed at the wrist.

’It’s the Grand Momentum!’

Qing Yun’s beautiful eyes flashed. With Luo Feng’s strength, it should be impossible for him to break the Mad Demon’s illusion conjured by the Sky Flying Demon. However, the Grand Momentum can sever the intangible, making it the perfect counter to such illusory things.

With its Demon Avatar struck, the Sky Flying Demon grunted, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth as he fixed a sinister gaze on Luo Feng.

"Brat, I’ll kill you!"

Just as he was about to launch a killing blow, an incomparably sharp intent suddenly pressed in. How could Qing Yun relinquish such a hard-won opportunity? She swung her sword, unleashing a massive blue Sword Qi that slashed out at supersonic speed.

SPLURT!

The Sky Flying Demon, unable to evade, took the hit head-on. His protective demonic flames were slashed open, and a terrifying sword gash appeared across his entire back, blood gushing out profusely.

"Die!"

Seeing the Sky Flying Demon’s protective demonic flames breached, Luo Feng seized the chance and slashed out with his saber again.

"Mad Thunder Overturning Sky!"

CRACKLE!

Thunderclaps shook the heavens as a saber light tens of meters long exploded outward, like an arc of lightning appearing in the sky.

The Demon Avatar was directly cleaved apart by the saber strike. A line of blood stretched from the Sky Flying Demon’s left shoulder down to his abdomen. Below, the residual energy of the saber light carved a deep trench into a street, extending for a hundred meters before gradually fading.

ROAR!

The Sky Flying Demon’s blood-red pupils stared at Luo Feng as he let out a furious roar, his voice incredibly shrill, his face filled with unwillingness and rage.

He simply couldn’t comprehend how he, a mighty Sky Flying Demon, had fallen at the hands of a mere human youth!

The next moment, SPLATTER! A jet of blood shot out from the Sky Flying Demon’s body. He plummeted downwards like a broken sack, his aura gradually dissipating.

"He’s dead... That young man actually killed the Sky Flying Demon commander!"

"His Saber Technique just now contained Grand Momentum! And that uniform must be from the Purple Sun School. I remember now, he’s Luo Feng from the Purple Sun School!"

"Luo Feng? So that’s it. Grand Momentum can sever the intangible; no wonder he could cleave through the Demon Avatar."

The City Lord Mansion guards, seeing the corpse of the Sky Flying Demon commander on the ground, were all too stunned to speak.

CLICK.

Luo Feng sheathed his Rage Flame Knife and landed on the ground. Looking at the Sky Flying Demon’s body, he exhaled slowly. Finally, he’s dead.

A fragrant breeze wafted by as Qing Yun landed beside Luo Feng, a faint smile playing on her red lips. "I originally came to save you, but unexpectedly, you ended up saving me."

Even now, Qing Yun still felt a lingering fear.

The strength of this Sky Flying Demon had far exceeded her expectations. If Luo Feng hadn’t forced him to reveal an opening, her defeat would only have been a matter of time.
