Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

One had to know that these were not one or two, but hundreds of demon beasts. Although most of the demon beasts were below the fifth level Qi Refinement realm, many were at the sixth level Qi Refinement realm or even the seventh level Qi Refinement realm.

However, the Bat Demon’s attack killed them all equally. The ultrasound with extremely terrifying destructive power shattered their heads.

All of them died!

That’s right.

Hundreds of demon beasts died. None were spared.

All of them turned into headless corpses. The exploded heads and the blood flowing out gathered into a scarlet lake on the ground.

The smell of blood assaulted their senses.

Silence!

The entire venue was silent!

The Bat Demon converged its strength and became palm-sized again. It slowly landed and stood on Qi Ming’s shoulder. The attack just now had exhausted a lot of the Bat Demon’s energy.

At this moment, everyone’s mouths were wide open, and their eyeballs were about to fall out. They no longer knew what to say. They were completely stunned by the scene before their eyes.

They could not believe it.

Unbelievable.

They were dumbfounded.

“Gasp…”

…

Someone gasped and broke the silence.

“Dead… dead. All dead…”

“Hundreds of demon beasts! Hundreds of demon beasts! Just one move! Just one move! He killed all of them instantly! Their heads exploded!”

“Is this the power of the Foundation Establishment realm? Is this the strength of a Foundation Establishment spiritual pet?”

“Senior Brother Qi is undoubtedly the first place in this Outer Sect Assessment!”

“Qi Ming! Qi Ming! Qi Ming!”

They cheered.

Everyone shouted Qi Ming’s name excitedly. At this moment, Qi Ming’s reputation and prestige reached the highest point in the venue. It was deeply etched in the hearts of everyone present.

“Damn!”

“Are you kidding me?”

The three demon cultivators were completely dumbfounded as well, and their expressions were even more terrified. They could not help but roar, “This is the Outer Sect Assessment of the servant disciples! A spirit pet at the Foundation Establishment realm actually appeared? How could one actually appear!”

“F*ck!”

“Run!”

They did not hesitate. Facing the Foundation Establishment Bat Demon who instantly killed all the demon beasts present, such power and combat strength were not something they could resist at all.

They could only escape.

“Kill them.” Qi Ming’s gaze was cold as he ordered.

Swish!

The Bat Demon flapped its wings and instantly disappeared. Its speed was extremely fast, reaching the supersonic speed as it chased after the three fleeing demon cultivators.

Pew!!!

Blood splattered.

One of the demon cultivators’ heads was cut off by the Bat Demon on the spot. He died before he could even scream.

“Ah!!!”

Pew!!!

The next moment, the Bat Demon’s body was like a sharp sword, and its palm-sized body pierced through the body of another demon cultivator like an arrowhead. A transparent hole appeared in its heart.

The demon cultivator whose heart had been pierced screamed a few times before completely dying.

There was only one demon cultivator left.

“Stop.”

Boom!

The Bat Demon was just about to use a sound wave to finish off the last demon cultivator when a young man appeared and blocked it with a bronze shield.

The young man waved his right hand, and a green rope flew out. This green rope seemed to have a life of its own, and it firmly trapped the last demon cultivator. He lay on the ground and was unable to move.

“Come back.”

The Bat Demon still wanted to attack, but Qi Ming immediately shouted for it to stop. Only then did it give up and quickly fly back to Qi Ming’s side and stand on his shoulder again.

“Not bad, not bad.”

This young man wore a green robe and hung the identity token of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect on his waist. He smiled and nodded at Qi Ming, “There’s a genuine hidden dragon in the Green Cloud Peak’s servant quarters.”

Qi Ming bowed and said, “Senior, I am flattered. Why did you stop me from killing this last demon cultivator?”

“Cough cough.”

The young man coughed lightly and said, “I forgot to introduce myself. You can call me ‘Qing Lan’. Because of the rumors of the Heavenly Chief Inheritance spreading everywhere, in this Outer Sect Assessment’, the legacy elder of the Martial Illumination Peak, Elder Su, who is also my master, I’ve already deduced that demon cultivators will infiltrate this Outer Sect Assessment and harm the lives of the servant disciples of the twelve peaks.”

“Hence, Master specially sent me to protect your safety in the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm. However, I did not expect that a hidden dragon like Junior Brother Qi Ming from the Green Cloud Peak would be able to subdue an early-stage Foundation Establishment spirit pet at the sixth level Qi Refinement realm.”

“Junior Brother Qi finished off the entire demon beast group before I even attacked. You even killed two of the three demon cultivators in succession. Your methods are extremely sharp and admirable.”

“However…”

Qing Lan paused and said, “Master sent me here not only to protect your safety, but also to capture the hidden demon cultivators.”

“It’s fine if those two demon cultivators are killed, but not this demon cultivator.”

“We need to have a survivor to interrogate, right?”

Qi Ming had an ‘enlightened’ expression as he said, “I see. Since this is the arrangement of the legacy elder, I naturally have to obey. Senior Brother Qing Lan, please take this demon cultivator away.”

Qing Lan nodded slightly, “Yes. There’s still half an hour until the Outer Sect Assessment ends. After I report this, the assessment can probably end early.”

Qi Ming nodded.

Qing Lan said, “Right, Junior Brother Qi, you’ll definitely be first in the Outer Sect Assessment this time. There’s probably no need to continue the following arena matches.”

“With your performance, there’s a high chance that you can catch the eye of a legacy elder.”

“Congratulations in advance, Junior Brother Qi.”

“Thank you for your praise, Senior Brother.” Qi Ming said.

“However, it’s not so easy to become a legacy disciple.”

Qing Lan said again, “Up until now, I’m only Master’s registered disciple.”

“Let’s go.”

Buzz!

As soon as Qing Lan finished speaking, he waved his right hand and grabbed the neck of that demon cultivator. His figure soared into the sky and was teleported away along with the fluctuation in space.

Qi Ming also heaved a sigh of relief.

“Senior Brother Qi…”

“Senior Brother Qi…”

In the surroundings, Jiang Shicheng, Lu Hai, Xiao Fan, Xu Ye, and the others walked over. Their eyes were filled with respect and gratitude because it was all thanks to Qi Ming that they were able to survive.

It could be said that Qi Ming saved everyone present.

As for Qing Lan…

Honestly, Jiang Shicheng and the others were not fools. If it was really as Qing Lan had said, he should have attacked immediately when the three demon cultivators appeared, and not waited until the last moment to come out.

Moreover, everyone recalled carefully. From the rumor of the Heavenly Chief Inheritance until now, many things were very strange, as if they had been planned long ago.

Qi Ming said, “Blood Fiend Evil Ghost, absorb all the demon beasts and demon cultivators’ corpses.”

The evil ghost was excited. Under Qi Ming’s orders, it rushed into the group of corpses. Black ghost energy and fiendish energy surged, and a vortex appeared.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!!!

All the essence energy of the corpses was swallowed by the Blood Fiend Evil Ghost.

Boom!

In the blink of an eye, the ghost had broken through to the eighth level of Qi Refinement. Moreover, it was still rising. After swallowing all the corpses, the Blood Fiend Evil Ghost had reached the early-stage of the ninth level of Qi Refinement.

Ten minutes later.

“We were all tricked.”

Xu Ye, Lu Haisheng, and the others walked out of the inheritance forest with ugly expressions. They said in a low voice, “The Heavenly Chief Inheritance is completely made up. After we forcefully opened it, it was just an ordinary cave. There was nothing inside.”

“The rumors in advance were spread deliberately and designed so many things. Not only were we tricked, but even the lurking demon cultivators were tricked, revealing their identities.”

“This…”

“Who did it?”

“Could it be Elder Su…”

Everyone was shocked in their hearts and faintly guessed some possibilities, but they did not dare continue speaking. After all, they were only servant disciples, so how could they dare to criticize the higher-ups of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect?

Moreover, this was only their guess. There was no concrete evidence.

At this moment, the Assessment Tokens in Qi Ming and the others’ hands were flickering with light, indicating that their Outer Sect Assessment had ended. They needed to use the Assessment Tokens to leave the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm..
