Chapter 218: One Punch to Death

When the Nightmare Demon Hound was only a cub, it could only create a huge black shadow and let the black shadow swallow the invading enemy.

If it was a cultivator with a low cultivation base, there was nothing to say, but it was not so easy for a cultivator in the Sea Core Realm to fall into it.

Of course, the real ability of the Nightmare Demon Hound was not to swallow people but to make nightmares, and it depended on its eyes to cast the nightmares.

It was precisely because of this that there were rumors that people who saw the beast of death were either dead or crazy.

But since there were such rumors, it meant that not everyone who saw the Nightmare Demon Hound would die or go crazy, at least the deacons and elders of the Seraphic Sword Sect were not afraid of the Nightmare Demon Hound.

Now, the Nightmare Demon Hound had advanced from a cub to an adult state. It no longer created a black shadow that could swallow people, this time, its three eyes burst out with weird gloom, making people fall directly into the nightmare. 

The elders of the Seraphic Sword Sect should know very well about the Nightmare Demon Hound they called "the Beast of Death", but they must know nothing about the Nightmare Demon Hound in the adult state. This was what Mo Xiu dared to place hope on the Nightmare Demon Hound.

Of course, although the newly-adult Nightmare Demon Hound could create nightmares and put them on the Sea Core Realm cultivators, it would not last long. It was estimated that those who had fallen into the nightmare would soon wake up.

But it didn't matter, this much time was enough for Mo Xiu.

Zhong Ruhao did not fall into the nightmare because he took out a piece of black cloth in the first place. The piece of black cloth was not an ordinary black cloth, but was clearly a treasure, and even the light projected by the Nightmare Demon Hound's three eyes could not penetrate that piece of black cloth, so Zhong Ruhao couldn't fall into a nightmare either.

This was in Mo Xiu's expectation. Zhong Ruhao lived for hundreds of years, he had a lot of good things on him, and it was understandable that he could deal with it.

Not only Zhong Ruhao, but also a few people present who did not fall into the nightmare, Ji Linyuan was one of them, but the methods used were different.

Mo Xiu didn't expect the Nightmare Demon Hound to solve everyone at once. He calmly listened to Zhong Ruhao's cruel words, watched Zhong Ruhao rush towards him, and shouted back to Xing Yuyan, "Do it!"

Zhong Ruhao unknowingly had an extra blade in his hand, but the shape of this blade was very similar to that of a sword. Obviously, it was not ordinary goods that could be used by him.

As the elder of the Seraphic Sword Sect, the weapon in hand was of course the sword, but he was still very afraid of Mo Xiu's strange ability. He dared not use the sword in front of Mo Xiu, and could only replace it with a blade similar to a sword.

Fortunately, because the shape was similar to a sword, even if it was essentially a blade, he could still display many sword skills.

Before he rushed to Mo Xiu, he had already slashed at Mo Xiu.

Sky Avenue Slash!

In the night sky, a strong golden light burst out suddenly, and fierce blades intertwined, like a net from heaven and earth, cutting down at Mo Xiu.

Mo Xiu did not dodge, even let the Nightmare Demon Hound protect Xing Yuyan, so as not to accidentally hurt Xing Yuyan.

Of course, Zhong Ruhao's attack could not harm the Nightmare Demon Hound. Although the main method of the Nightmare Demon Hound was to create a nightmare, the adult body of the Nightmare Demon Hound was very powerful. It was not something Zhong Ruhao could damage at will.

Mo Xiu practiced the Myriad Wood Spirit Art, and Zhong Ruhao's knife won't hurt him even more. Even if the blades fell on his body one after another, cutting his body apart, his body recovered in the blink of an eye, even the clothes on his body were intact.

"Boom..."

After a loud attack, the entire Eastern Hedge Peak was cut apart by Zhong Ruhao's blade and divided into two.

However, there was a huge movement caused by the Sword Raising Gourd, and the elders of the Seraphic Sword Sect from other places would not be attracted here.

As for the elders on Eastern Hedge Peak, most of them had already fallen into the nightmare.

As the golden light disappeared, Zhong Ruhao took a closer look and found that Mo Xiu, Xing Yuyan, and Nightmare Demon Hound, were all unscathed, which made him very astonished.

Xing Yuyan was protected by a Nightmare Demon Hound, and he could understand that, but why was Mo Xiu still alive?

Shouldn't he be cut apart?

While he was wondering, Xing Yuyan on the other side also started to act as her figure promptly disappeared.

"Huh?"

Zhong Ruhao suddenly became vigilant.

In the blink of an eye, a blue light flashed, and a hundred-foot-high jasper body appeared.

"What!"

This time, not only Zhong Ruhao was shocked, but even Ji Linyuan and the other elders who hadn't fallen into the nightmare were also surprised. It was hard to imagine that there was such a method in the world.

Taking advantage of Zhong Ruhao's stunned face, Mo Xiu raised his hand, and a cloud of Violet Jade Spiritual Energy floated out, falling precisely on Zhong Ruhao's body under his control, and was absorbed by Zhong Ruhao without Zhong Ruhao knowing it.

Violet vortexes appeared in his body out of blue, which shocked Zhong Ruhao again. He soon discovered that the True Energy in his body was actually restricted by those violet vortexes, and his strength could not be fully exerted.

More importantly, those violet vortices could not be cleared at all. The more he wanted to clear them, the more he would hurt himself.

All kinds of discoveries made his old face gloomy.

At this time, Xing Yuyan, who was displaying her supernatural power without saying a word, controlled the huge Dharma body to slam Zhong Ruhao with its huge fist violently.

Galaxy Divine Fist!

The eight special acupoints were opened, and the power of the stars stored in them in advance poured out frantically, wrapped on the jade-colored fist, making the fist full of power of stars.

Zhong Ruhao could realize the threat of this punch. If he was poisoned by Violet Jade Spiritual Energy, he believed that he would suffer a little injury at most and it would not be difficult to deal with it.

But now, the True Energy in the body was limited by those violet vortexes. If he really wanted to face this fist, he was afraid it was more than just a little injury, and he was very likely to die!

He suddenly became anxious and turned around and shouted, "Quick! Come and help!"

For the time being, the elders on Ji Linyuan's side were still very willing to help. Essentially, "Wu Jue is Mo Xiu" was no longer a guess, it had become a firm fact, so Zhong Ruhao might become the next Sect Master of Seraphic Sword Sect.

Helping Zhong Ruhao now was equivalent to selling love to Zhong Ruhao, and when Zhong Ruhao became the new Sect Master of the Seraphic Sword Sect, he would definitely not treat them badly.

However, before they could come forward to help, the Nightmare Demon Hound howled again, and three more gloomy lights shot out.

All the elders who wanted to step forward to help all backed away, each using their own means to deal with the three gloomy lights.

Zhong Ruhao, who couldn't get help, could only watch the jade-colored fist gradually enlarge.

The bright starlight burst out like a gigantic volcano eruption and fell on Zhong Ruhao, making Zhong Ruhao completely unable to move.

"Die? Will I die just like this?"

Zhong Ruhao's thought flashed, huge unwillingness rushed to his heart, the True Energy in his body burned frantically. His eyes were wide open, his teeth clenched, his already whitish beard and hair became completely white in the blink of an eye, and the wrinkles on the body surface continued to spread. His whole body seemed to be shriveling, but the aura on his body was rising like a vast ocean tide.

The Spiritual Energy from all around gathered frantically and poured into his body. Seeing that he was about to break through to a higher level of cultivation, the fist that radiated bright stars finally fell and hit Zhong Ruhao.

"No…!"

A scream rang.

Zhong Ruhao's body collapsed little by little, bursting open, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a rain of blood and dissipated.

"This…"

Everyone was shocked again. They didn't expect that an expert as powerful as Zhong Ruhao was punched to death by that huge body.

At this time, Xing Yuyan's gaze fell on everyone and she said, "Who else wants to come up to die? I am happy to accompany you!"

Those elders who fell into the nightmare did not say anything for the time being. The few elders who had been sober had seen the scene where Xing Yuyan controlled the Dharma body and punched Zhong Ruhao to death. Therefore, who would dare to run up to die?

They even worried that Xing Yuyan would take the initiative to kill them, so including Ji Linyuan, they turned around and ran.

In just a short time, only Mo Xiu, Xing Yuyan, Nightmare Demon Hound, and the elders of the Seraphic Sword Sect who had fallen into the nightmare remained on the entire Eastern Hedge Peak.

The blue light flashed, the hundred-foot-high jasper body disappeared, and Xing Yuyan's figure reappeared. Seeing that the elders of the Seraphic Sword Sect who remained awake were scared away, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Except for Mo Xiu, only she herself knew best. Although the punch just now was powerful that it killed Zhong Ruhao all at once, it could only be performed once.

If she couldn't frighten those Seraphic Sword Sect elders, and couldn't scare them away, she was afraid she and Mo Xiu would be the party to run instead.

"Go, return to the Yan Kingdom."

With a wave of his hand, Mo Xiu led Xing Yuyan to find the Teleportation Array that had already been hidden by him and entered the Teleportation Array.

The Nightmare Demon Hound would naturally not fall. The huge body shrank quickly and turned back to the appearance of an ordinary puppy, returning to the back of Mo Xiu and diving into the darkness behind him.

"Buzz..."

There was a vibration in the sky, and the Sword Raising Gourd rising from the Sword Valley trembled slightly, and a pressure swept away, suppressing the elders of the Seraphic Sword Sect who had been attracted to it.

After that, the Sword Raising Gourd quickly shrunk, and with another "swish", it burst out of the air like a flying sword, flew onto Eastern Hedge Peak, and landed in Mo Xiu's hands.

With a wave of the array flag on Mo Xiu's other hand, the Teleportation Array opened with a ray of light.

When everyone realized that something was wrong and chased to Eastern Hedge Peak, Mo Xiu and Xing Yuyan had long since disappeared.
