Right now, fighting is out of the question and escaping is impossible.
This made the Evil Spirit City God feel an unprecedented sense of suffocation and despair.
But just at this moment, it suddenly noticed the village at the foot of the mountain.
The Evil Spirit City God's eyes brightened, and with a surge of demon power, it shot to the sky above the village, then quickly halted, turning towards the relentlessly pursuing Lin Heng and shouted:
"Enough!"
Lin Heng frowned slightly, glanced at the villagers below, and stopped in his tracks.
Seeing this, the Evil Spirit City God had a gleam of joy in its eyes and said in a sinister tone:
"One more step forward, and everyone dies!"
Lin Heng looked displeased, "I welcome you warmly, and you respond with threats?"
The Evil Spirit City God couldn't help but twitch its lips.
Warm welcome?
Your fist is glowing with golden light, and you call this a warm welcome?
Do you take me for a fool?
This is clearly not 'a friend from afar is here', but 'is it not delightful to vanquish them!!'
The Evil Spirit City God took a deep breath and coldly said:
"It's not a threat, but you should know your Celestial Thunder skill affects this entire area."
"Once it strikes, I surely can't live, but they are definitely doomed!"
Confidence and pride shone in the Evil Spirit City God's eyes.
It believed a Daoist would never disregard the lives of the innocent!
However, unexpectedly, before the Daoist across from it could speak, the villagers below became excited.
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?"
"Threatening Daoist Xiao Lin with us?"
"Do you think we fear death?"
"Daoist Xiao Lin, go ahead and hit it, we are not afraid to die, we'd die without regret!!"
"Hit it!!"
The villagers shouted fervently, faces full of resolve, without a trace of fear!
Some of the older folks, if it weren't for their limited mobility, would have climbed on rooftops to hit that guy with a cane!
What sort of thing is this?
Actually using us to threaten Daoist Xiao Lin?
We could never drag Daoist Xiao Lin down, absolutely never!!
Looking at the villagers' determined figures, Lin Heng felt a warm surge in his heart.
While the Evil Spirit City God's face turned sour as if it had swallowed a dead rat.
"Seriously, what's wrong with these villagers?"
It was about to go crazy, what on earth was happening at this Qingfeng Temple?
It's one thing for the Daoist to be so formidable.
But these villagers, each one spirited and robust? Some elderly even daring to throw eggs at itself?
Dammit, in three hundred years of being a demon, when had it ever suffered such humiliation?
"The saying 'Bad mountains and bad waters produce unruly folks' isn't wrong!"
"All damn unruly folks!"
The Evil Spirit City God was full of indignation.
And this situation was also clearly observed by the three people, including Kong Wen, from afar.
At this moment, Kong Wen's face was as ugly as if he had eaten a dead child.
He completely couldn't understand.
What the heck was this Great Demon, capable of making the Spirit Suppression Bureau helpless, afraid of?
"Elder, what's going on?"
Wang Sheng couldn't help but mutter, his face full of bewilderment.
He was puzzled.
When that Demon City God first showed up, it was exuding terrifying demonic energy and an overwhelmingly domineering aura.
But in the blink of an eye, it turned into a bullied little wife?
What about the promised Innate Great Demon?
What about 'I am the City God, kneel quickly and welcome'?
Why don't you just fight him already!
Wang Sheng was so anxious he was pacing frantically, wishing he could jump in himself!
Meanwhile, Wang Yuan frowned and looked at Kong Wen with a complex expression, saying:
"Elder, did you perhaps invite the wrong person?"
"Shut up!" Kong Wen's face turned dark with anger.
Wang Yuan quickly shut his mouth, trembling visibly.
...
On this side, the Evil Spirit City God was already sweating profusely from nervousness, its red eyes fixed on Lin Heng, ready to drag all villagers down with it the moment he raised a hand to summon lightning!
If it couldn't survive, then no one would.
This was its only remaining hope!
"How about this then."
At this point, Lin Heng finally spoke, in a calm tone:
"I won't use Thunder Skill, and you won't harm them, let's have a fair fight, how about it?"
Hearing this, the Evil Spirit City God was taken aback.
Lin Heng smiled: "Of course, you could choose mutual destruction, but I assure you, if they die, I will have no reservations and will tear you to pieces."
Lin Heng's face bore a smile, but the murderous intent in his tone made the Evil Spirit City God's hair stand on end.
The other was indeed not wrong!
If it killed the villagers, the other would no longer have any hesitation.
What awaited then would surely be the rolling Celestial Thunder from that night!
"Are you serious?"
"You really dare to fight me without using Thunder Skill?"
There was a hint of doubt deep in the Evil Spirit City God's eyes.
At its realm, it could clearly see that this Daoist was merely at the Postnatal Sixth Realm!
Such cultivation would be strong among the cultivators in Chang City.
Strong!
Very strong!
But, in front of an Innate Realm existence, the gap was as vast as heaven and earth!
Of course, the Daoist before it had numerous methods and possessed Innate True Qi.
Just based on this, within the same realm, he should be nigh unbeatable!
But that ultimately just meant being invincible within the same realm.
It didn't mean bridging the chasm between Postnatal and Innate!
Seeing the Evil Spirit City God troubled, Lin Heng couldn't help but chuckle:
"Don't worry, haven't you heard that a monk doesn't lie?"
The Evil Spirit City God was momentarily stunned and retorted:
"Isn't that what the Buddhist monks say? Do you think I'm stupid?"
Lin Heng was both amused and exasperated.
"Fine, then I promise you, as long as you don't harm the innocent, in this fight, I absolutely won't use Thunder Skill."
"Those who violate this promise shall suffer heaven's wrath!"
At these words, the doubt in the Evil Spirit City God's eyes finally lessened.
But it also felt a deep curiosity.
"I'm very curious, what gives you the confidence to dare fight me without Thunder Skill?"
Lin Heng replied with ease: "No particular confidence, just simply think you're weak."
As he spoke, he took out the Tai Chi Feather Duster from his System Space.
The moment he saw the duster, the Evil Spirit City God, who had spent a lifetime collecting various Magical Artifacts, had eyes immediately ablaze with interest.
"You arrogant Daoist, you really are presumptuous."
"Never in Chang City has anyone dared to call me weak!"
Finally, the Evil Spirit City God's face bore a fierce battle intent, demon energy swirling around it, the moonlight reflecting on it like the red of sacred temple candles.
This time, it let out a long howl.
Its massive form roared towards Lin Heng!
A feather duster, is it?
A Magical Artifact, is it?
Today, this City God will show you what divine power truly means!
As long as it's a full moon night.
No Righteous Magical Artifact can harm me in the slightest!
Pride shone in the Evil Spirit City God's eyes, and its domineering aura reappeared.
Which finally relieved the color on the faces of Kong Wen and the others from afar.
"I'll kill you!"
The Evil Spirit City God made its move, its boiling demon energy enveloping its fist, wanting this Postnatal Realm Daoist who called it weak to experience the horror of an Innate Great Demon!
However, just as the Evil Spirit City God thought the other would use that Feather Duster Magical Artifact to defend against it.
The other simply smiled, and with the other hand, punched towards it.
And during this process, for some reason, the other was suddenly glowing with a brilliant golden light all over.
