World-saving Plan: The Only Savior

Chapter 1626 - 422: Grudges and Hatred

"Roar!"

Behind them, more than twenty figures gradually closed in.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Eye technique used by Lin Zhen and Lin Man—also known as the Spirit Detection Technique—didn’t require them to actually see with their eyes. It was a type of sensory ability with a fifty-meter radius centered on themselves.

When those monsters approached this distance, even though that bird demon continued to use Mind Games to try to draw their attention, it was still difficult for them to miss the looming danger drawing ever closer from behind.

"Little kids, your vigilance is not bad, but it’s all the better this way. The more a prey struggles, the tastier it becomes when eaten, heh heh."

As soon as the bird demon finished speaking, the monsters behind the two had already lunged forward.

"Junior Sister, be careful! I’ll cover you, you run! Take the news back to the sect, tell the Great Elder, he will avenge me!"

Having said that, Lin Zhen rushed forward, engaging in battle with the more than twenty monsters alone, buying time for his junior sister to escape.

"Hm! With me here, none of you are getting away today!"

The bird demon snorted coldly, flapping its wings to stir up a fierce Gang Wind that made it hard for Lin Man to stand steady, let alone perform Sword Control to fly away.

Struggling to hold on, Lin Man’s True Yuan Shield appeared around her, resisting the Gang Wind.

The Gang Wind was extremely fierce, slicing small cuts into the True Yuan Shield. Fortunately, she had this means of defense; if it were an ordinary person, even a master of the Heavenly List, they would likely have been shredded to pieces by the bird demon’s Gang Wind by now.

Turning back to Lin Zhen’s side.

This cultivator had burst out with all his strength, desperately blocking those corpse-like monsters.

His body was enveloped in light blue mist, and his skin flushed red as blood flowed rapidly beneath it. The Reverse Flow Technique was pushed to its extreme at this moment.

However, the strength of these corpse monsters was also formidable. Lin Zhen had already sustained injuries just from a one-on-one clash with a single one. Now, even with all his might and the support of the Reverse Flow Technique, he was still at a disadvantage against more than twenty monsters, his body quickly covered in variously sized torn wounds, each oozing black blood, clearly indicating they were laced with poison.

"Senior Brother!"

Lin Man sensed the situation in the mist through the Spirit Detection Technique, nearly bursting into tears with anxiety.

Now the bird demon was continuously assaulting her with Gang Wind. Forget about escaping; she could hardly move an inch, forced to hold her ground with difficulty.

"Ah!! Damn it!!!"

With bloodshot eyes, Lin Man let out an angry shout, and sword qis erupted around her, dispersing the Gang Wind.

The small sword that had fallen to the side suddenly reacted, flying up and transforming into a four-foot-long Spirit Sword, shimmering with a chilling light.

The Spirit Sword turned into a streak of light, slicing through the corpse monsters in an instant, decapitating them and saving Lin Zhen from a critical situation.

"Heh heh, as expected of a Sword Cultivator among cultivators, this attack method truly surprises me..."

The bird demon seemed to be wary of the girl’s Flying Sword, opting not to attack immediately. It circled high above, screeching sharply from its beak.

"Heh heh, since you’re so capable, let’s see how you handle these corpse puppets!"

With its words, more shadows charged in from a distance, easily numbering no less than five hundred.

"How could this be..."

The brother and sister duo were unable to conceal their despair upon witnessing the scene.

Faced with so many monsters, and a Demon Core Realm monster in the sky, they had lost all hope of survival in this dire situation.

"Foul creature! Daring to harm my fellow Tianyuan Sect members here, prepare to die!!"

From the sky, a roar echoed, followed immediately by a torrent of sword shadows.

The sword shadows descended like raindrops, piercing into the horde of corpse puppets and shredding them on the spot.

"What!?"

The bird demon was alarmed, quickly turning to look in the direction of the newcomer.

A figure appeared, treading the air on a Flying Sword, dressed in the white attire of the Tianyuan Sect. However, this attire featured two golden stripes, a distinction worn only by a True Disciple of the sect.

"Senior Brother Li Qiang!"

Seeing him, Lin Zhen and Lin Man couldn’t help but express their joy.

The newcomer was the second senior brother of the Tianyuan Sect and Master Liu’s personal disciple, a notable figure indeed.

"Nascent Soul Realm!"

Witnessing the opponent’s strength, capable of instantly destroying hundreds of corpse puppets, the bird demon’s expression changed. It let out a strange cry and turned to flee.

It never imagined that the Tianyuan Sect had more than just two members this time but a Nascent Soul Realm expert, and not just any expert, but a Sword Cultivator. Fighting would be futile; escaping was the only option.

"Foul creature! After wreaking such havoc on my Human Clan kin, you think you can escape!? Prepare to die!!"

Li Qiang formed a Sword Technique with his fingers, a Spirit Sword shooting out from the Sword Box behind him, splitting first into two, then four, until finally becoming sixteen sword shadows that pursued the bird demon.

The bird demon was terrified, frantically trying to evade, but the sword shadows seemed locked onto it, impossible to dodge.
