Dark clouds gathered overhead, and the sound of slaughter filled the air!
The sky.
Amidst the churning clouds and mist, countless demonic figures roared and charged forward.
It turned out that the merman pursuers of Bonny had been killed by Ji Mo. The Merman tribe immediately sensed this and dispatched their experts to investigate.
Soon, using a special artifact, they located Bonny's whereabouts and identified the Void Sword Sect as the culprits who had interfered with the Merman tribe's affairs.
Thus, the Merman tribe assembled an army of fifty thousand and descended in full force.
The Void Sword Sect, with only a dozen or so members, did not warrant such a grand mobilization.
However, the Merman tribe had their own agenda. They intended to make an example of the Void Sword Sect, showcasing their power to deter anyone from daring to provoke them in the future.
Simultaneously, they sought to extend their influence to the mainland, aiming to carve out their own territory and pursue their ambitions of dominance.
Hurricanes howled, and torrential rain poured down as tens of thousands of sea creatures, their killing intent surging, enveloped the Void Sword Sect.
Within the mist, grotesque merfolk, sea monsters, shrimp soldiers, crab generals, and terrifyingly massive deep-sea leviathans could be seen.
To display their might, the Merman tribe spared no effort, deploying many of their elites.
"Heavens, how can so many sea demons be attacking us?"
A young disciple of the Void Sword Sect felt a tremor of fear, his voice quivering. He had never witnessed such a spectacle.
Moreover, the enemy numbered fifty thousand, while their own side had only a little over ten people. The disparity in strength was immense.
Inside the room.
Bonny's small body trembled uncontrollably, her face filled with terror.
She would never forget that day when the Merman army attacked, brutally slaughtering her kin and annihilating the Merfolk race.
"The Merman tribe wants to eliminate me completely. I cannot implicate you all."
Despite her overwhelming fear, Bonny decided to surrender herself, hoping her sacrifice would protect the Void Sword Sect.
Kind-hearted as she was, she couldn't bear to burden Ji Mo and the others.
Ji Mo grabbed Bonny's tail, preventing her from doing anything foolish, and said, "I told you, as long as I'm here, no one can bully you. Don't worry, they're just a bunch of stinking fish and rotten shrimp, nothing to be concerned about."
With that, he strode towards the door, his posture suggesting he intended to confront the fifty thousand sea demons head-on, all by himself.
Bonny, her eyes glistening with tears, gazed at Ji Mo's tall figure, deeply moved.
Aside from her parents, this was the first time anyone had risked their life for her.
However, her heartfelt emotion soon turned into indignation, making her grit her teeth and want to bite someone.
This was because Ji Mo wasn't going to fight. He simply walked to the door and bellowed, "Er Lengzi, relay my command: whoever kills the most fish demons today will have priority in marrying the fox maiden of Qing Qiu first."
Er Lengzi, standing outside the door, responded and quickly passed on the message.
"You big bad guy, you coward! You won't fight yourself, but you're making your disciples go to their deaths for nothing."
Bonny glared at Ji Mo indignantly, thinking he was truly a wimp.
In such a critical moment, as the leader of the Void Sword Sect, he should have set an example and led the charge against the enemy.
Or at least fought with passionate bravery, carving a bloody path for his disciples.
To pit over a dozen disciples against fifty thousand sea demons, in Bonny's eyes, was an act of foolish suicide, like a moth flying into a flame.
"As disciples of the Void Sword Sect, I don't have high expectations for them now. Being able to fight a thousand enemies at once should suffice. Coupled with my incentive of beauty, they should be able to unleash ten times their combat power. Calculating it this way, these fifty thousand sea demons are not enough to kill."
Ji Mo counted on his fingers, analyzing the situation with confidence.
The main reason was his faith in the inheritance of the Void Immortal. If he couldn't fight ten thousand enemies at once, what kind of sword immortal would he be?
This could be considered a test for the disciples of the Void Sword Sect.
"One against a thousand? You're too arrogant. Do you think these disciples are all heavenly prodigies?"
Bonny felt Ji Mo was utterly unreliable. How could one estimate combat power like that?
Furthermore, he was blatant lying and making false promises. Would the proud Heavenly Foxes of Qing Qiu really marry into the Void Sword Sect?
He spoke without thinking, who would believe his nonsensical words?
However, at that very moment, excited shouts, like the wails of ghosts, erupted from the disciples of the Void Sword Sect outside.
Among them, the loudest was the lecherous old man, Sima Hongfeng.
"Hahaha... after so many years of being alone, I'm finally going to end my bachelor life and get a wife."
In the midst of the storm, Sima Hongfeng, like a madman, raised his arms and roared.
He knew that Ji Mo always kept his word. As long as he killed the most demonic beasts, marrying a beautiful Heavenly Fox maiden would be a certainty.
And as the sect leader, his cultivation was the highest, so naturally, no one could compete with him.
Sima Hongfeng's mind drifted to the alluring image of the seven-tailed Heavenly Fox from Tu Shan, with her fair skin, beautiful features, and long legs. He chuckled foolishly, his excitement splitting his mouth from ear to ear.
"For the lovely fox sister, kill!"
"Kill all the sea demons and win the fox sister."
...
The younger disciples were even more eager. They drew their respective swords and unleashed their immense fighting spirit.
They were full of vigor, even more impatient than Sima Hongfeng, and began to circulate their Void Sword Intent, ready to wreak havoc.
"Are these people from the Void Sword Sect all crazy?"
The sea demons in the sky were dumbfounded.
They had come with overwhelming force, their army pressing down. Logically, these humans below should have been terrified, begging for mercy.
Why, then, did they resemble lechers spotting beautiful women, their eyes glowing green?
Bonny was equally stunned.
She blinked her watery eyes repeatedly, wondering if Ji Mo had used some dark magic. Why were the disciples of the Void Sword Sect acting as if they had been injected with chicken blood, their auras inexplicably multiplying?
"Kill! Let these foolish and ignorant land dwellers know the might of our Merman tribe!"
The leading Merman elder issued his command, unable to tolerate a dozen ants flitting about before him.
However, before his voice had even faded, screams began to echo.
The members of the Void Sword Sect had already launched their attack, directly employing the Void Sword Control Technique.
Over a dozen immortal swords tore through the rain curtain, shattered the hurricane, and plunged into the Merman army.
Ten streams of terrifying Void Sword Qi surged forth, invincible and omnipotent, easily slicing hundreds of sea demons into bloody mist.
"Void Sword Intent! Void Sword Control Technique!"
The Merman elder's eyes widened in disbelief. Hadn't the inheritance of the Void Immortal been lost long ago? How had it reappeared?
Even if it had reappeared, how could these scruffy-looking disciples of the Void Sword Sect all be proficient in the Void Sword Control Technique, and possess such astonishing killing power?
They had initially thought the Void Sword Sect was an insignificant sect, easily annihilated. Little did they know that this place was a hidden dragon's lair, filled with sword immortals possessing the most terrifying killing prowess.
"Hmph, you really thought our Void Sword Sect was easy to bully, didn't you? Today, we shall use you to make an example and re-establish the prestige of our Void Sword Sect."
Sima Hongfeng, now possessing Golden Immortal realm cultivation, held his sword seals, Void Sword Intent rippling all over him. He unleashed the Void Sword Control Technique, madly reaping the lives of the sea demons.
To win a wife, he was fighting with all his might, possessing the bloodthirsty courage to kill gods and buddhas alike.
In just a few breaths, he had slain over a thousand sea demons.
But even more outstanding was Er Lengzi.
Sword light flashed in his eyes, and a dazzling sword wheel appeared behind him, like a brilliant sun.
Er Lengzi did not yet possess his own immortal sword. Instead, he had found an alternative path, transforming his Qi into swords, condensing dozens of light swords. With the momentum of ten thousand swords returning to the source, each strike annihilated large swathes of sea demons.
It had to be said that Er Lengzi's talent in the way of the sword was truly extraordinary. Although his realm was not as high as Sima Hongfeng's, the terrifying combat power he unleashed far surpassed it.
The Merman tribe, expecting to easily subdue the Void Sword Sect, found themselves being subdued instead.
Screams echoed to the heavens. The fifty thousand sea demons were being encircled and annihilated by over a dozen disciples of the Void Sword Sect, their blood staining the azure sky.
