"With just this level of strength, you still want to stop this Demon Monarch? Wishful thinking! The souls of all the humans in this city — this Demon Monarch shall take them all!"

After painstaking efforts and slaughtering four cities to cultivate fierce ghosts, a large number were killed by the opponent in an instant. How could Fang Yuan not be angry? With the Ten Thousand Souls Banner damaged, he intended to compensate with the humans from this city.

With that, Fang Yuan launched an attack, continuously channeling Spiritual Power into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in his hand, pushing it to the extreme. It wildly shook in the air, and at this moment, the blood-red light on the banner became incredibly dazzling.

In an instant, black fog as thick as ink spread over the entire world like an overturned ocean, covering the sky and sun. The whole sky darkened as if it was midnight, and the sun hanging high above now appeared like a full moon under the black fog.

Wuuuuu~

In the next moment, swarms of fierce ghosts surged forth from the banner, resembling a massive swarm of bees. In the misty black sky, they looked like a shape-shifting black cloud, rushing towards the high walls and to Li Ling'Er not far above the high walls.

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

Watching the encroaching black fog and the swarm of fierce ghosts about to ascend the high walls, the commanding officer on the wall shouted in alarm, issuing a retreat order.

Instantly, the Extraordinary beings and warriors on the walls frantically retreated, causing the crowd to congest due to the sudden retreat command.

"No, we can't leave!"

Feeling the wave of fierce ghosts approaching and the terrifying momentum, Li Ling'Er's heart tightened, overcome with a giant sense of crisis. She felt the urge to flee immediately, yet thinking of the crowd behind her, she gritted her teeth and stood her ground.

Still too weak. If her cultivation were higher, how could she end up being cornered by a beast like this?

"I can only fight!"

In the next moment, Li Ling'Er's eyes sharpened, emitting an extremely fierce aura. The Cyan Lotus Mark on her forehead suddenly lit up, becoming increasingly brilliant in a short time. Strands of cyan light emerged, transforming into a vividly lifelike blue lotus around her body.

Li Ling'Er held the sword in both hands, raising it above her head. The radiant cyan light scattered over the sword's body, and behind her appeared a startling phenomenon: a magnificent blue lotus blooming alone in the chaotic world. Cyan light swirled around, exuding strands of Immortal Energy, with its lotus petals as sharp as swords, radiating endless beams of sword light.

Suddenly, the lotus petals emitted a dazzling cyan brilliance, closing together as one towards the center. Within the cyan radiance emerged an enormous cyan light sword reaching from the ground to the sky, surrounded by countless blue lotuses of creation and destruction.

The cyan light sword carried a force to split the heavens and earth, cleaving everything, with rolling cyan light surging down, sweeping in all directions!

The people of the Great Qin Empire in Jiangtong City watched the cyan light sword, towering like a pillar of heaven, in high spirits.

The Little Sword Immortal is indeed fearsomely strong, surely invincible!

Hahaha, with such an attack, what could the Black Demon Tiger use to block it? It surely is doomed.

"Impressive."

Fang Yuan was somewhat surprised, watching Li Ling'Er enveloped in the blue lotus, secretly muttering to himself.

Especially that cyan light sword; it already touches upon the level of laws, causing the surrounding space to tremble, and faintly, tiny spatial cracks appeared near the sword blade.

This little girl is indeed a reincarnation of an ancient being; otherwise, how could she possess such sharp and profound Sword Intent at such a young age?

However, her cultivation is still too low; ultimately, she is but a slightly bigger ant.

"Cut!"

In the next moment, Li Ling'Er lightly spat out a word, her imposing manner fierce. The cyan light Immortal Sword she held high slashed down hard, while the cyan light sword behind her suddenly flashed, carrying a momentum to unfold everything, slashing towards Fang Yuan.

For a moment, the entire world seemed occupied by the cyan light sword, and the black fog shrouding the sky was cleaved apart at that moment.

Watching the oncoming cyan light sword, Fang Yuan squinted slightly, blood light suddenly flashing in his eyes, and in an instant, eerie blood light enveloped Fang Yuan's body.

The Ten Thousand Souls Banner shook, and those fierce ghosts rampant in the black fog seemed summoned, all rushing towards Fang Yuan, merging into the blood light within his body.

As countless fierce ghosts merged, Fang Yuan emitted an oppressive momentum, with blood light on his body growing ever stronger. Inside, the wails of innumerable fierce ghosts echoed, ghostly energy overflowing.

Soul-Devouring Demon Claw!

Within the blood light, Fang Yuan, full of murderous intent, suddenly raised his tiger palm. Instantly, the surrounding blood light and fierce ghosts fused into a terrifying monster like a black giant mountain, extending a sky-covering giant claw, steeped in Demonic Qi, grabbing towards the cyan light sword.

Boom!

The sky-covering demon claw and the cyan light sword met in midair, erupting with a deafening sound. After just a few moments of stalemate, the cyan light sword emitted a piercing sound and was completely crushed by the demon claw.

Puff!

Below, Li Ling'Er felt as if struck by lightning, spewing blood mist from her mouth. Her whole body flew backward, heavily crashing to the ground, face pale, and she coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood, her aura plummeting to the lowest point.

"Little Sword Immortal!!!"

The spectators from the Great Qin Empire exclaimed in unison.

"Heh heh heh, little girl, today this Demon Monarch shall add you to my Ten Thousand Souls Banner!"

Fang Yuan dispelled the Soul-Devouring Demon Claw, grabbing the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, and advanced with a sinister smile.

Unexpectedly, just then, a Spiritual Light surged from beneath the ground, directly pulling Li Ling'Er into the earth, quickly fleeing afar, gradually disappearing without a trace.

"Hmm? Who dares snatch my prey from the Demon Monarch, where do you think you're going?"

Fang Yuan was taken aback, then furious, immediately maneuvering the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in pursuit of the direction where the Spiritual Light vanished.

...

Before long, the news of Jiangtong City spread across the internet, causing shock and dread among the people of the Great Qin Empire.

The Little Sword Immortal was defeated!!!

Instantly, it felt as if the sky had fallen.

[Impossible, how could the Little Sword Immortal be defeated!!!]

[Alas, the Black Demon Tiger is too strong. Even the Little Sword Immortal couldn't match it. Now that this beast is on a killing spree, what will become of our Great Qin Empire!]

[Everyone, let's not forget why the Black Demon Tiger vanished before. Isn't it all thanks to the mythical beast? Now, without its protection, the Black Demon Tiger is arrogant again!]

[Indeed, only the mythical beast can save our Great Qin Empire now!]

[It's all the officials' fault. If they hadn't been incompetent, how could we have ended up at odds with the mythical beast?]

[We must implore the mythical beast to intervene again, or we're all doomed.]

[...]

The defeat of the Little Sword Immortal dealt a massive blow to the confidence of the Great Qin Empire's people, causing a shift in online opinion, calling for the Great Qin Empire officials to go to Changbai Mountain and invite the mythical beast.
