But suddenly, he sensed an eruption of demonic aura. He immediately looked up to the northwest.

Light swirled in his eyes, and he naturally saw everything clearly.

It’s Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake. To think he actually dares to come to the prefecture capital. The old man transformed into a gust of wind and disappeared from the area, heading straight for Little Moon Lake.

…

In the largest Martial Academy in the middle of the prefecture capital.

“Senior Brother, Senior Brother, I can’t master this sword technique no matter how much I practice. Teach me.” A beautiful woman took the initiative to stop a fair-skinned handsome man.

The man smiled and said, “Junior Sister, you have to practice every move and stance of this sword technique seriously. Let’s go to your residence; I’ll teach you in detail.”

“Alright, Senior Brother.” The woman was a little excited.

“Senior Sister Liu.” A youth rushed out and said anxiously, “Senior Brother Wang Cheng is a despicable person. He has already ruined the innocence of several senior sisters. Don’t be bewitched by him.”

“Don’t you slander Senior Brother Wang.” The woman was furious. “Let’s go, Senior Brother Wang. Ignore him.”

Wang Cheng smiled at the youth. “Junior Brother, watch your words. I know many people in the Martial Academy are jealous of me.”

With that said, Wang Cheng frowned slightly and looked northwest.

Huh? Senior Brother Wang Cheng saw everything in Little Moon Lake clearly. Green Lake actually dares to come to the prefecture capital? These five Demon supreme-rulers all want to replace me and become the new Mountain Lord of Dongming Mountain. I want to see how strong Green Lake is today.

“Junior Sister Liu, let’s go to your place. I’ll practice swordsmanship with you.” Senior Brother Wang Cheng held Junior Sister Liu’s hand.

She blushed, but she didn’t refuse and left with him.

“Senior Sister Liu, he’s a bad person.” The youth was anxious, but there was nothing he could do. Senior Sister Liu didn’t even look at him.

Senior Brother Wang Cheng and Junior Sister Liu were intimate, but the former had been paying attention to everything about Little Moon Lake from afar. The five Demon supreme-rulers—Green Lake and the others—are quite strong. Who’s his opponent? Why haven’t I seen him before?

*******

Xu Jingming heard Qi Chen’s voice and knew that the other party was rushing over.

This Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake deliberately chose Little Moon Lake. The experts from all over the prefecture capital are some distance away. Xu Jingming also knew that the experts from all sides were watching the battle from afar, and they were probably rushing over. However, he had to rely on himself for the time being.

“I alone should be enough to deal with this Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake.” Xu Jingming was also itching for a fight.

Green Lake stood in midair, holding a saber in each hand. He stared at Xu Jingming and scoffed. “Your strength is far inferior to Old Man Fang and Qi Chen. You can’t even injure—”

Boom!

Xu Jingming formed a hand seal with his left hand, and three bolts of lightning appeared out of thin air and struck down.

Divine power, Quint-Bolt! Three bolts struck simultaneously!

Of the three bolts of lightning, one was white-hot, one was dark, and one was dark-blue. The three bolts of lightning intertwined and instantly struck the top of Green Lake’s head.

His body trembled from the smite, and he was momentarily stunned. His head was already lacerated, but under the circulation of demonic aura, the wound quickly healed.

“You can barely injure me.” Green Lake was furious. “But it’s useless even if you strike me 100 times. Die.”

The Demon supreme-ruler turned into an afterimage and charged at him.

Urgh.

Wu Qi—who had already fled into the distance—and a large number of ordinary people watched the battle by Little Moon Lake from afar. Many of them had been saved by Xu Jingming, so they naturally hoped that he would win.

But it seemed that his many supreme powers and spells couldn’t do anything to Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake.

“Oh no.”

“This Demon Vanquisher is in danger.” Everyone’s hearts tightened.

Whoosh.

When Green Lake charged at Xu Jingming, the latter’s figure flashed, and his entire body seemed to teleport, avoiding the former’s attack.

Huh? Green Lake was a little surprised. This Demon Vanquisher, Wu Ming, is so fast.

Xu Jingming had starlight protecting his body, and he held two spear segments in his hand that had been connected to each other.

He held the spear and looked at Green Lake. It’s been a long time since I used my spear.

It had been a long time. This was the first time he used his spearmanship in Demon Vanquishing World.

In the distance, Wu Qi watched worriedly. “Young Master learned many weapons when he was still a martial artist, but he didn’t have any achievements in martial arts. Could it be that… he learned some powerful spear techniques at the same time as he obtained the Demon Vanquishing technique?”

In this world, Demon Vanquishing techniques were very mysterious, and natives had nowhere to learn them. Many of the Demon Vanquishers claimed that they were bestowed by the heavens; they learned it in their dreams or had them secretly imparted to them by experts.

“A weapon? Laughable!” Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake turned into an afterimage and brandished his two sabers.

Swish!

Xu Jingming was extremely fast as he approached the Demon supreme-ruler with the starlight. The moment they came into contact, he instantly swung his spear and struck Green Lake’s single saber.

Xu Jingming felt the powerful recoil and was sent flying more than 100 feet back.

I have the advantage in speed, but I’m much weaker than Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake in strength. Xu Jingming made a judgment the moment they clashed. But in terms of actual combat techniques, he’s too clumsy.

“Your strength isn’t up to par!” Green Lake charged over valiantly and slashed at Xu Jingming without any regard for him.

As a Demon supreme-ruler, he relied on his terrifyingly strong demon body. He could withstand a hundred attacks from others; all he needed was to strike his opponent once. That was sufficient for destroying those Demon Vanquishers.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The weapons collided, and before Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake could figure out what was happening, a phantom-like spear swept past his head.

This strike borrowed the force of the opposing strike and even borrowed the force of Green Lake’s body before striking his head.

Bang!

The Demon supreme-ruler crashed into the ground like a cannonball, shattering some of the thick limestone slabs beside Little Moon Lake and producing a deep crater.

He fell into the crater and stood up in a daze, feeling groggy. One of the sabers had already been sent flying into the distance, and only the single saber in his left hand remained clenched tightly.

“Impossible!” He suddenly came to his senses and charged forward.

The moment he clashed with Xu Jingming—

Green Lake didn’t understand what was going on either—he had heard the collision of weapons. The spear had bent and swept past his neck, twisting his neck and causing him to spin away in flight into a rockery beside him.

The rockery then exploded.

Green Lake twisted his neck a few times before recovering. He recovered some of his clarity of mind.

“Demon supreme-ruler” Xu Jingming walked over with a spear in hand. “Let me give you a piece of advice—give up on your saber technique. This isn’t a saber technique; it’s nothing but random slashing.”

“I can’t do anything to you, but you can’t kill me either. I’m leaving.” Green Lake was afraid, and he immediately turned into a stream of water that charged at Little Moon Lake.

However, a huge golden Inescapable Net appeared, intercepting and restraining the water stream.

“Break.” Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake exerted strength with his arms and cleaved open the net with a single strike.

But in the time it took him to cleave open the net, Xu Jingming had already flashed in front of him.

“Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake, it’s too late for you.” Xu Jingming stared at him.

“You can’t kill me.” Green Lake was a little anxious. Although the person in front of him had impressive spearmanship, he hadn’t suffered fatal injuries. But if this dragged on, it would be dangerous if the Demon Vanquishing experts in the prefecture capital joined forces.

“I can’t kill you?” Xu Jingming said softly. “I’ll take your life in three strikes.”

The moment he said that, runes lit up on the spear in his hand, and terrifying lightning flowed in it.

He had bought Mystic Light Cold Iron and a spear from the Qi family’s patriarch to refine a Dharmic artifact that suited him best! He had spent much more effort on this spear than the Golden Sand Beads.

A demon vanquishing Dharmic weapon? I need to run! The Demon supreme-ruler was so frightened that he turned around and fled.

Xu Jingming instantly became one with his spear.

His spearmanship had long reached an unimaginable level. He was considered top-notch among Lv. 8 cosmic lifeforms, and he was much better than Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake in actual combat.

Buzz.

The spear, bursting with lightning, tore through the sky!

Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake couldn’t escape in time and instinctively swung his single saber to block, but his saber technique was nothing but a joke in front of Xu Jingming.

When the spear stabbed into his body, all its might gathered at the tip of the spear, forcefully piercing through his thick skin and into his chest. At the same time, terrifying bolts of lightning erupted from the spear, annihilating all the demonic aura from his body.
