The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

442: Chapter 438: A Self-Righteous Appearance (Third update!) 442: Chapter 438: A Self-Righteous Appearance (Third update!) A person’s reputation casts a long shadow over their name!

In the Cultivation World, the name of a Demon Cultivator signifies savagery, brutality, ferocity, extremism, cold-bloodedness, and even great power, among other things.

Most Cultivators, when facing a Demon Cultivator, except for those powerful Great Cultivators or geniuses, are invariably intimidated before the battle begins.

Even many people would immediately flee at the sight of danger, avoiding the sharp edge.

And the might of a Demon Cultivator had long been ingrained in the bones of many disciples of Sword Saint Mountain.

No wonder Ding Yutang and Wu Hao, among others, were scared into retreating.

Even Shen Guyan was filled with trepidation and fear at this moment.

He only hoped his words could scare off the Demon in front of him.

After all, even if he called for help from other strong members of his sect, it would take several hours to traverse the long distance, which was simply not possible.

By then, he might already be beheaded.

And his words, obviously, could not scare the Demon Cultivator Dongli, who came from Forbidden Curse Ridge.

“Escape impossible even with wings?

Do you think I grew up being frightened?

Even if another comes whose cultivation is not far off from yours, I can still keep you here!”

Dongli stepped forward, standing in the middle of the platform, and looking at Shen Guyan, he scoffed, “You so-called Righteous Path, self-proclaimed eminent and orthodox, are nothing but a bunch of hypocritical, sanctimonious nobodies!

You keep calling out ‘Demon’, but I think it’s you people who are the real demons!

An Elder of a Major Sect like Sword Saint Mountain picking on an ordinary youth, what great prestige indeed!”

Since the emergence of the Demon Cultivator Dongli, Lin Tian had been standing still.

Feeling the temperature around him dropping, his gaze fell upon this man.

“The Cultivation Techniques practiced by Demon Cultivators are extreme and overpowering, most importantly, they allow for rapid speed in increasing cultivation!

But the side effects are substantial!”

Lin Tian looked at Dongli, who was emitting a faint black mist, and without releasing his Divine Sense to probe, he thought to himself.

At this time, Shen Guyan continued to speak, “I really didn’t expect you immoral demons to speak for the pitiful ants of the mortal world, it’s utterly ludicrous!

The life and death of these ants mean nothing to us Cultivators!

Yet it is you demons, who slaughter our Righteous Sects, that truly deserve death!”

“I have no interest in the survival of these ants, but I don’t slaughter ordinary people at random as you do!”

Dongli said disdainfully, “Now, I have no time to waste words with you.

You’ve destroyed my Demon Altar.

Do you want to be captured and refined by me, or would you rather take your own life?”

“Take my own life?

Arrogant!”

Shen Guyan shouted in anger mixed with humiliation.

“If that is the case, then I will capture you and use your blood to rebuild my Demon Altar!”

The ice-cold words of Dongli had barely ended before he had already pounced toward Shen Guyan.

At the same time, he pulled out a black Long Whip from his body, carrying along billows of Demonic Qi as it swept forward.

Ding Yutang and Wu Hao, who had already retreated a distance, couldn’t help but fly back even further.

The encroaching Demonic Qi from all directions terrified them to the core.

“This is too much to bear!”

Caught between shock and anger, Shen Guyan drew his Longsword from behind, with ample True Qi following his slash downward.

Boom~~

However, Dongli’s move was faster; the black Long Whip, like black lightning, struck Shen Guyan’s sword, and the rolling Demonic Qi instantly exploded.

Shen Guyan was shaken back several steps, struggling to steady his Longsword, which now had numerous notches.

Moreover, his clothes were torn to shreds, and he was utterly disheveled.

“Heh heh, is that the best you can do?

I would like to see how many more attacks you can withstand!”

With a harsh and grating laugh, Dongli stepped forward swiftly again, lunging at Shen Guyan, with Demonic Qi over his body like dense clouds, turbulent and roiling.

Shen Guyan hadn’t yet recovered from his shock and in a state of anger and alarm, he could only muster all his strength to cope.

Bang bang~~

Shen Guyan swung his Longsword, with True Qi constantly swirling out, but compared to Dongli’s terrifying Demonic Qi, it seemed so thin and weak.

In an instant, Shen Guyan found himself overwhelmed by Dongli’s lightning-like dark long whip, retreating in a constant state of disarray.

But the surrounding Demonic Qi was surging, chilling him to the bone, making his True Qi flow sluggishly, and his movements grew slower and slower.

He could only continuously slash out with his longsword, cleaving through Dongli’s attacks and the Demonic Qi.

However, it wasn’t long before Shen Guyan could no longer withstand it and was once again sent flying by Dongli’s whip.

Thwack~

A fresh spurt of blood followed, ejected from Shen Guyan’s mouth in response.

With a clang, his longsword stabbed into the ground, propping up his body as he gasped for breath, his body covered in wounds.

The shocking injuries were almost all inflicted by Dongli’s Demon Whip.

Moreover, the True Qi within his body was now in complete chaos, like an uncontrollable, violently surging flood, on the verge of being beyond his control.

“At the end of your rope?” Dongli sneered, brandishing his whip and stepping forward, “Too weak!

Die!”

Boom~~

The Demon Whip cracked through the air, exploding with Demonic Qi as it lashed down at Shen Guyan.

“Roar~”

Feeling the breath of death upon him, Shen Guyan let out a roar, using every move in his arsenal to desperately retreat.

Then, reaching out his hand, he grabbed onto Kang Heng, who was relatively close, and hurled him away.

Kang Heng was merely an Earth-level Martial Artist.

Even though Shen Guyan was already injured, in his grip, Kang Heng was as defenseless as a chick.

Boom~

With a burst of sound, Kang Heng took Dongli’s attack for Shen Guyan, his entire body was blown to pieces by the rolling Demonic Qi, turning into a mist of blood.

“Brother Kang!”

The sudden turn of events caused Zhou Li’s face to drastically change.

Watching the blood mist spread in the sky, he let out a piercing scream, his eyes reddening, his entire body trembling.

Kang Heng wasn’t his blood brother, nor were they from the same sect, yet their bond was stronger than that of siblings.

Decades ago at Blood Flower Mountain, Kang Heng had come to his aid several times, sharing in adversity.

Now, to think that he would die so suddenly and unfairly.

“Brother Kang Heng, I have caused your death!”

Zhou Li knelt on the ground, raising his withered palms to the sky, receiving the drizzle of bloody mist, tears streaming down his face, a picture of agony.

“Heh heh, is this what they call the Righteous Path sects?

To stay alive, they disregard the lives of others, using them as human shields; truly commendable!”

Dongli glanced at Zhou Li kneeling on the ground, then surveyed the terrified Shen Guyan, speaking with amusement.

At this moment,

Shen Guyan felt as if his gallbladder and liver were tearing apart; another hit from Dongli, and he would surely perish.

Taking advantage of Kang Heng’s interception, he had already hastily retreated a distance.

As he sprinted away, he bellowed, “All of you are mere ants unworthy of life; it’s an honor for him to block a strike for me!

Dongli, just you wait!”

“Think you can escape?

No chance!”

Dongli sneered and stepped forward to pursue.

But at that moment, in the direction Shen Guyan was fleeing, a young man panted heavily as he sprinted towards him.

“Elder Shen, Demon Cultivators!

The Sect Master received news that Demon Cultivators have appeared around Bin City!

But you arrived a step ahead, Elder.

I’ve been chasing after you but haven’t been able to catch up!”

The young man, seeing Shen Guyan fleeing in such a sorry state, did not stop for questions.

As he ran, he shouted, “This was personally entrusted to me by the Sect Master to be delivered to you!”

The approaching youth was dressed in the attire of a Dark Ocean Peak disciple, with the cultivation of the Qi Refining Ninth Level.

As he shouted, he tossed the object wrapped in black fabric to Shen Guyan.

“That Demon is here, retreat quickly!”

Upon receiving the parcel, Shen Guyan unravelled it and his face immediately lit up with ecstatic joy, while he shouted back at the young disciple.
