The Legend of the Demon Hunter

Lan Jiuyin saw that her opponent did not give a direct answer, and her face showed annoyance. She snorted coldly and said, "Playing tricks!"

Then a blue fairy sword appeared in her hand. Along with the appearance of the fairy sword, a green lotus slowly emerged behind Lan Jiuyin.

Qinglian Sword Technique!

Back then at Yanhui Peak, the Green Lotus Sword Technique had been very powerful, especially in the hands of Yun Zhonghe, who nearly took Xiao Zhu's life with one move. Now seeing the Green Lotus Sword Technique again, Xiao Zhu couldn't help but feel nervous.

Five years have passed, and Lan Jiuyin's cultivation is no longer the same as before. Back then, when she released the Green Lotus Sword Technique, she still needed Lang Qingyu's assistance, but now she can successfully form the Green Lotus by herself, and her power is much stronger than before.

The three red-robed bishops on the stage felt the aura released by Lan Jiuyin at this moment and no longer dared to doubt her true ability.

The moment the Green Lotus appeared, Xiao Zhu took out the Greedy Wolf Sword. The scenes of his fight with Lan Jiuyin five years ago reappeared in his mind. The essence of the Green Lotus Sword Technique lies in its speed. The sword must be drawn very quickly and with false and real moves, and victory can often be achieved before the enemy has even made a move.

At this moment, the scene that had appeared five years ago reappeared. Lan Jiuyin's figure split into three, and she turned into three phantoms and rushed towards Xiao Zhu from the left, right, and top. Xiao Zhu could clearly feel that although it was the same move, the power released by Lan Jiuyin this time was several times stronger than five years ago, and these three phantoms exuded the same murderous aura, which meant that these three phantoms were real!

Old Huojian, who was standing in the audience behind Xiao Zhu, frowned. He never expected that this woman, whose real strength was only that of a spirit hunter, could suddenly burst out with such strong power. He was very worried about how Xiao Zhu would deal with it.

Next, he noticed that the Greedy Wolf Sword in Xiao Zhu's hand was shining like it was coated with pure gold. He did not move, but his eyes were fixed on Lan Jiuyin's phantom like an eagle. Just as the two phantoms on the left and right were about to rush to Xiao Zhu's side, two golden vines rose from the ground. As they grew, they intertwined and formed two golden vine walls, blocking the two phantoms on the left and right.

"Dang! Ding!" Two phantoms hit the vine wall. Although the vine wall was very hard, it was still torn open by the sharp fairy sword in the phantom's hand. But the next moment, the vine wall showed incredible regeneration ability. The vines quickly resumed growth, entangled around the sword light in wave after wave, and grew wildly along the sword light, wrapping the entire phantom layer by layer. After a moment, the phantom was imprisoned by layer by layer of the vine wall and strangled completely.

At the same time, Xiao Zhu stomped on the ground, holding the Greedy Wolf Sword in his hand, and flew into the air, slashing at the flying Lan Jiuyin's real body. The sound of metal clashing rang out in the air. Xiao Zhu's Greedy Wolf Sword was known for its power, while Lan Jiuyin's Green Lotus Sword was known for its speed. In an instant, the two weapons collided violently in the air, and a golden light suddenly appeared in the air.

Xiao Zhu and Lan Jiuyin retreated from the golden light. They were pushed in opposite directions by the impact force, but Xiao Zhu retreated ten meters in the air, while Lan Jiuyin was pushed back a full twenty meters. It was obvious that Xiao Zhu had the upper hand in the previous attack.

On the field, Lan Jiuyin was indescribably surprised at this moment - since she broke through the Soul Hunter realm two years ago, she had never encountered an opponent in this realm, and even many Soul Hunters had been defeated by her. This was not only because the Qinglian Sword Art she practiced was a superior swordsmanship, but also benefited from the tempering pill she took two years ago.

The refining of the Tempering Pill is the unique secret technique of Yanhui Peak. No one knows the refining method except Yun Zhonghe. The refining of this pill is extremely difficult. Yun Zhonghe has devoted most of his life to refining only ten pills. Each pill is regarded as a treasure and is priceless. Lan Jiuyin was able to obtain the Tempering Pill given by Yun Zhonghe because she was Yun Zhonghe's direct disciple and was regarded by Yun Zhonghe as the next successor to be trained. Apart from her, even Lang Qingyu did not get it.

The magic of the Tempering Pill lies in its miraculous effect of cleansing the marrow and changing the bones. Ordinary people who take it can prolong their life and make the body as strong as a beast. After taking it, demon hunters can not only greatly enhance their physical strength, but also help to improve the speed of cultivation. This last point alone is enough to attract all demon hunters.

However, what Lan Jiuyin did not expect was that with his current speed and strength, he was actually at a disadvantage when going head-on against the fellow in front of him who was equally powerful as a spirit hunter!

What made her even more frightened was that if she had not taken the tempering pill, the opponent's attack just now would have been enough to knock her out of the competition arena or even injure her.

Who is this young man?

Although Lan Jiuyin was shocked, she remained calm. Her face was as cold as frost and she leaped into the air. The greatest advantage of the Green Lotus Sword Technique was its speed, so diving attacks on enemies on the ground from above were a common tactic, just like a hawk stalking its prey.

And at the moment she flew up, suddenly a golden vine broke through the ground, like a thick snake chasing Lan Jiuyin and pouncing on her. Lan Jiuyin had just flown into the air and had not yet been able to defend herself when the vine entangled her right foot and pulled her back to the ground!

Lan Jiuyin was no ordinary person. Although she was a little panicked when she was entangled by the vines, she immediately thought of a way to resolve the problem. She bent her body slightly, cut the vines with a wave of her right hand, and prepared to fly up again with the help of the force of stepping on them the moment she landed.

But the moment her feet touched the ground, it suddenly turned into a puddle of mud. Her feet had no leverage and she immediately sank deep into the mud.

At this moment, Lan Jiuyin's face turned pale. She realized that she had fallen into the opponent's trap. She raised her head suddenly and saw Xiao Zhu holding a huge golden sword and slashing down from the air. It seemed that he wanted to cut it in half with one sword!

"Child, I have spent most of my life studying spiritual bloodlines and created the art of fusing the five spirits. The ice and fire polar balls you hold are the magic weapons I made when I first started experimenting. But magic weapons are external objects after all. If you want to improve your strength, you must strengthen yourself. Based on the characteristics of the five spirits, I have spent hundreds of years researching a total of four spirit fusion spells. Each of them is several times stronger than ordinary single spirit spells. If used properly in battle, they can be very effective."

"These four soul-fusion spells are the Ice Flame Spell that fuses water and fire, the Gold Vine Spell that fuses gold and wood, the Mud Spell that fuses water and soil, and the Explosion Spell that fuses gold and fire." Xiao Zhu's ears rang with the words that Master Fan Yin had said to him in the past.

The next moment, the Tanlang sword in Xiao Zhu's hand, shining with golden light, hit Lan Jiuyin!
