(The training is finally over. After returning, Rulong can finally have a good sleep. It feels so good to have a full sleep! I have to say that this kind of internal training is really random. Not only the learning time, but also the It changes again and again, and even the exams are open-book! It really gives me a lot of experience~~~~~~)

For demons in the human world, the most annoying enemies they encounter are probably cultivators. Not only because cultivators are good at all kinds of magical and mysterious Taoist priests, but also because cultivators can manipulate magic weapons to perform tasks far greater than their own physical strength. The attack power is not only their ultra-lasting combat power brought by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, spiritual stones and elixirs; what really gives the demons headaches and even fear is that cultivators who have reached the late stage of Qi training will often fly. Spell!
That's right, because of the unique circumstances of the human world, the number of demons that can cross the gaps in space and come to the human world is not very large, only accounting for about one-tenth of the total number of demons in the world today; the vast majority of demons evolved from demonized species in the human world. Very few of them have flying demons. In addition, flying animals do not have an advantage among the native species in the human world. During the magic disaster, even low-level monsters such as the Demonic Bird were able to dominate the demon world. The majestic demon lord of the Voice Nest Lord and the main force of the flying demon army could only Using demonized bats to fill up the number shows the scarcity of flying demons among demons.
Therefore, cultivators often have the advantage of being able to fly in battles with demons. They can fight and run if they can't, and they will even go back and forth in this way and finally kill the demons that are originally stronger than themselves, fully bringing out the essence of guerrilla warfare. However, because most of the demons do not have the ability to fly, they have to fight the cultivators on the ground in a way they are not good at. They are passive in the battle. Even if they defeat the cultivators, it is difficult to kill them. The biggest advantage of demons is that they have much greater mobility than ordinary demons - the sea of demons formed in huge numbers cannot be used. Instead, it will become a target for cultivators because too many demons gather. Therefore, cultivators have become the target of cultivators. The force that causes the most harm to the demon has also become the demon's number one enemy.
In order to solve the problem of how to fight against flying cultivators, the demon lords have made various attempts. Although most of them failed, they have also achieved certain results. For example: the "Dark Holy Word" comprehended by the Sound Nest Lord can ban the space at high altitudes. The cultivators could not fly; Mekanshute led a large number of summoned flying monsters and also attacked the place where the cultivators must be rescued - the return of thousands of mountains to the ruins, so that they had to stick to a fixed position and could not leave the sea of demons. Tactics were implemented.
However, for most demon lords, the cultivator's flying ability is still a big hidden danger. If it is not solved, they will be helpless and passive in the battle. Just like the Nord lords and the Leopard King, although they lead enough men, they are trapped in On the ground, one can only fight alone against Void Return Masters like Li Xuanji because the opponent can escape at any time and ruin his siege.
This is the fundamental difference between the two forces. The demon army is not good at aerial combat. This shortcoming cannot be completely solved by some small means in a short time.
Hasas also knew this, so they did not rely solely on their own strength to solve the problem, but chose another simple and effective method - making allies and using the power of cultivators to deal with cultivators. That's why they approached the Southern Demonic Cult. Because of the alliance between the devil and the demons and Hasas's dealings with them, the Southern Demonic Cult readily agreed to take action. Anyway, the battle between the demonic path and the righteous path has already broken out. There is no room for turning, and they are not stingy about taking action.
The blood magic witchcraft is a strange curse spell passed down from the Miao witches of the Southern Barbarians. It can ignore most defenses and impose a curse on the attacking target through the power of mysterious rules. It is not only strange and difficult to prevent, but also extremely evil in nature. Because of its powerful effectiveness, it has conditions for its activation. Equally strict and evil; its activation condition is to sacrifice soul and blood! And the more souls and blood sacrificed, the more powerful the curse will be.
The blood magic witchcraft is a secret method collected by the Southern Demonic Cult that has been entrenched in the south for thousands of years. It belongs to the kind of barbaric magic from ancient times. It is powerful, crude, single in effect, and the spell is difficult to understand. The Southern Demonic Cult has studied it for many years and has been able to find out so far. The only spells used are relatively easy spells such as the forbidden flight ability; and because it requires too many sacrifices and takes too long to cast, it seems useless when fighting cultivators, so it has never been known; because in cultivating In a fighter's battle, flying spells are not important, but magic weapons and skills are more important. Let a cultivator who has the best magic weapon but cannot fly fight with a cultivator who can fly but only has high-level magic weapons. If the two have the same cultivation level Usually the cultivator with the best magic weapon will win. Moreover, blood magic witchcraft consumes a lot of blood and soul but can only cast a spell once, which is too inefficient; the magic way has a more effective way to use soul and blood. In an era when the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the treasures of heaven and earth are becoming increasingly scarce, no sect will This extremely "wasteful" spell is often used.
It is precisely because of this that the Southern Demonic Cult has basically never used this spell on anyone. Even the Shushan Sect, which has been against it for many years, does not know about this, so it indirectly "helps" the Southern Demonic Cult. Because in this battle, A lot of demons were killed by the Shushan Sect. If so many demons had not died, the Southern Demon Sect would not have been able to collect so many souls and blood, and with this, they could cast a large-scale blood magic sorcery that had never been seen before, and they would be cursed in one go. The power penetrated the originally powerful sword formation and imprinted on the bodies of the cultivators, forcing them to fall to the ground to fight.
Of course, this is also related to the overconfidence of the Shushan sect and the absence of Xiang Tiannan, because Xiang Tiannan is still fighting Aludiba and cannot escape, and lacks his "Innate Qi Taiqing Talisman" and two ** flag gates The people of the Shushan Sect were unable to use the Shushan Zhenshan Formation "Liangyi Dust Formation", which allowed the curse of blood magic to succeed. Otherwise, even the immortals would not be able to break the formation once it is launched, which is said to be able to "turn the land of dust into prehistoric times and determine life and death."
However, there is no regret medicine in this world. No matter how much regret and annoyance everyone in the Shushan Sect may have, they cannot change the fact that they have been cursed. Therefore, they can only continuously drive the sword array to send out rounds of whistling sword energy to kill batches of monsters that are coming towards them. The disciples in the formation take turns with each other, unable to rest, swallowing the pills they usually collect to restore their mana, meditate and adjust their breath, and then wait for the brothers who control the sword formation outside to be exhausted before taking over from them. As for attacking, after more than a dozen brothers took the risk to attack with flying swords, but they were all destroyed by the demon lord hiding in the shadow, no one took this risk anymore.

"Dragon Snake Transforms into a Sword and Fights the Red Lotus!" Xiang Tiannan pinched a sword technique with his left hand and shot out a green light that fell on the Qingsuo Sword. The Qingsuo Sword made a clear sword cry, and then the sword light suddenly turned into a giant snake. The blue dragon roared and rushed towards Aludiba on the opposite side; at the same time, Xiang Tiannan pinched another hand trick with his right hand, turning his fingers like a wheel, and a little red light gathered like sparks in his right hand, forming a flaming lotus. . After completing the technique, Xiang Tiannan shook his right hand, and suddenly a flash of red sword light appeared in the palm of his hand, combined with the flaming lotus, and it seemed to fall slowly and quickly towards Aludiba.
Although he was in the crowd of demons, Xiang Tiannan had already discovered the strange behavior of the sect. He tried to escape from the battle many times, but was stalked by Aludiba and was unable to escape smoothly for rescue. After a long battle, his patience was exhausted and he finally used another trick of the Shushan sword technique "Sword Qi Volley Technique"; at the same time, he fired his second hidden Yuan Shen Flying Sword, the Red Lotus Sword, in an attempt to strike in one fell swoop. No matter how hard it is to kill Aludiba, he must be defeated so that he can free his hands to rescue the people in the sect.
"Roar!" Aludiba let out a scream. A huge hole with a diameter of two feet was opened in its chest. The whole body was burnt black by the exploding Red Lotus Sword Qi, and bursts of stinky black smoke were emitted; Burning blood fell down all over the body, and flesh and blood flew everywhere. The bones and squirming internal organs could be vaguely seen from the wound on the chest; one of its right hands holding the "Scorching Blade" cut off the root of the other left hand, as if the skin had been sliced by a blade. The skin and most of the flesh and blood were all cut away by the sharp sword light, leaving only the strong demon bones and a few bright red tendons connected to the bones; even the searing blade fell off due to lack of energy support and one of his eyes was blinded. The image of the black hole blown up was extremely tragic.
Aludiba's cultivation level is already lower than that of Xiang Tiannan. In addition, in order to end the battle quickly, Xiang Tiannan did not hesitate to use special moves and exposed the hidden killer. The sword energy transformed into Qingsuo Jianjue, which inspired the power of the exquisite sword soul. Not that Aludiba's magic shield cast by his physical body could withstand it. It was broken before it could hold on for even a second. The sword fighting red lotus that followed was imprinted on its chest; The power of the swordsmanship triggered by the magic weapon is huge. The beautiful red lotus brings the smile of death. The red lotus transformed by the sword energy is like a hundreds of tons of tnt explosives exploding in its chest. With the explosion, not only Not only was the extremely strong shock wave but also countless sword energies burning with the true fire of Samadhi.
These sword energy penetrated Aludiba's body covered with hard scales, took away pieces of flesh and blood, and injured many vital parts, almost killing him. If it weren't for the fact that Aludiba, as a demon, was born with extremely powerful vitality, and his body was extremely resistant to high temperatures and flames. Moreover, when his life was in danger, he unleashed his full potential and activated the Abyss Brand to cover his whole body. A layer of "Purgatory Flame" dispelled the Samadhi True Fire and Sword Qi that were constantly hurting its body. At the same time, it stimulated its original vitality and temporarily increased its regeneration ability by a hundred times. I'm afraid it would have died a long time ago.
Even so, Aludiba still looked miserable. Even the basic protective magic fire was unable to emit. He only relied on his survival instinct to activate the last resort to save his life.
Aludiba's mouth opened wide and he coughed out a large mouthful of blood. A spar flashing with a faint white light in the blood emitted a faint magic wave. Aludiba grabbed the crystal as quickly as possible and grinned a terrifying smile at Xiang Tiannan who rushed over: "You are so strong that you are almost as strong as a god. But my The mission has been completed. Goodbye. I believe I will never lose so miserably the next time we meet." After saying that, regardless of Xiang Tiannan's reaction, he crushed the spar and the spar burst out with an extremely strong cry. White light and huge space fluctuations enveloped Aludiba. Even Xiang Tiannan did not dare to look at him. He just manipulated two flying swords to attack forward, but missed. After the white light passed, Aludiba disappeared without a trace. All that was left behind was a piece of burning magic fire and a faint white crystal powder.
Xiang Tiannan flew to the place where Aludiba disappeared and reached out to grab some floating crystal powder and carefully identified it. "The space crystal is indeed the legendary escape treasure. Hmph, I'll count you lucky this time. I'll let it go next time." You have no way to escape!" After saying a few cruel words, Xiang Tiannan turned around and took back the Red Lotus Sword and the Qingsuo Sword. The human sword merged into a green and red stream and flew towards the sword formation of the Shushan Sect.
"The leader is back!" The members of Shushan Sect cheered after Xiang Tiannan entered the sword formation, as if he could turn the tide of the battle when he came back. Only four elders came over with shame on their faces and whispered to Xiang Tiannan. He said: "Brother, the master, we were so negligent that the devil's trick succeeded, and we were trapped here. The master, brother, punished us!" Although the bigger reason was that the demon was so cunning that he used a curse he had never seen before to deprive him. Their flying ability but their crime of negligence has been implemented, so they dare not defend themselves.
"Four junior brothers, there is no need to blame yourself. The war is not going well because of the devil's cunning ways and the ferocity of the demons. What does it have to do with you? This is not a crime of war. If it comes to it, I also have a responsibility not to change my temper and be alone with that devil. It was really hard to fight until I was entangled by it but failed to return in time, so I was unable to deploy the 'Liangyi Mote Formation' and could only defend the enemy with a second-level sword formation." Xiang Tiannan waved his hands to them to express his forgiveness. their fault.
"But now that the demon has been defeated by me, although it escaped, it was seriously injured and will never appear again in a short period of time. We can take advantage of this to set up the 'Liangyi Dust Formation' to stabilize the position, and then lead the masters in the sect to wait for the opportunity to attack and kill Those high-level demons and demon lords. As long as these leaders are eliminated, the remaining demons will naturally collapse without a fight. Please help me with all your strength later." Xiang Tiannan said sincerely to the four elders.
"The master is wise and I am ashamed to obey the master's orders in everything." The four elders did not expect Xiang Tiannan to forgive their mistakes so easily. They were moved and quickly bowed their heads to express their obedience to the command. The other Shushan disciples on the side saw the leader's magnanimous and fighting spirit, so they all regained their confidence and cheered for a while, "Shushan will win!" "The leader is wise!" and other shouts resounded throughout the sword array.
Is Xiang Tiannan really not angry? This is impossible. No matter how many reasons there are, it is a fact that the Shushan sect is at a disadvantage now. It is inevitable that the four elders will be accused of poor command. But as he said, now is the critical juncture. This battle still relies on the four elders, so we can't punish them first, but have to show kindness to win over the other side. Then they will use their full strength to help the Shushan faction win in the subsequent battles. This is the overall situation that cannot be lost. As for some details, we can wait until we return to the mountain after the battle is over.
Xiang Tiannan never wanted to go back with the accusation of defeat this time, which would have a very bad impact on the reputation of the Shushan Sect and affect the Shushan Sect's status in the world of cultivation. Therefore, no matter how great the difficulties or losses, he would not give up as long as there was still a chance to win. With the extremely important trump card of "Liang Yi Mochen Formation", he will never be willing to fail. He still has a chance!
"Okay, let's let these evil demons and shameless demons see the true strength of our Shushan sect!" Xiang Tiannan was secretly satisfied when he saw that the morale of the sect had been restored, so he took the opportunity to say.

Looking at the original sword formation, a black and white light suddenly rose in the sky, and then the black and white light intertwined and melted into a chaotic color, and finally divided into six flag gates of different shapes and disappeared into the air. The appearance of the entire sword array changed drastically into a huge array shrouded in countless white clouds. Hasas and Lord Heixie, who had appeared in the sky at some unknown time, said at the same time.
"Is this the Liangyi Dust Formation? It's really amazing. I can't even feel the breath of this formation."
"It looks calm and elegant on the outside but hides murderous intent inside. The horror of the Liangyi Dust Formation is beyond your imagination." Standing beside them, Zhang Sixie said expressionlessly.
